Chapter 253 Rhetorical Techniques
Although this year's NBA playoffs are much less intense than in previous years, the topic is full of sense. From referees to players, almost the media's pens and keyboards have not stopped. The important news of a certain, confused those fans who really love the team or a certain star, and made the fans outside who are neutral and eating melons shouted wonderfully. Things broke out this year, and they only want to say that the expensive circle is really messed up.

"May I ask what you think of the series between the Magic and the Celtics? Do you also think that if the referees were not dominant, would the Celtics have already defeated the Magic and entered the finals?"

Even at the pre-game press conferences between the Lakers and the Rockets, someone specifically raised this question and threw it to Kobe, which made the boss very angry.

Who the fuck is with whom? Two teams in the Eastern Division have half a dime relationship with me?And now that the Lakers are facing the embarrassment of being eliminated at any time, he asked himself this question, are he sure he is not mocking?Volute raised his eyes and looked at the female reporter's clothes. The logo of the Houston Times was on her chest. She wore two cartoon Totoro earrings on her ears and a bunch of cartoon Totoro bracelets on her wrists. Make a fool of yourself!Damn Houston guy!
"You shouldn't ask me this question, but you should ask the Rockets. They are more likely to enter the finals than us from the outside world. You should let them wait and see who their next opponent is!"

Kobe said coldly, closed his eyes, and went to meditate. No matter how many reporters asked questions, the boss pretended not to hear him. Anyway, he has this qualification now, and Peter Pan, an ordinary reporter, didn't pay attention at all. Those reporters Resentful and helpless, I had no choice but to throw the question to the Zen master and my sister-in-law sitting next to me.

"What? It's impossible for us to play the seventh game. This is our life and death battle. I will not allow failure in this game."

Totoro gave a clear answer to the reporter's question about whether he will go to Los Angeles to play the seventh game, but what he said is also true. A home game in the playoffs brings unparalleled support to the team, otherwise In the regular season, everyone will not be struggling to compete for a good ranking. Didn't you see the Rockets play and capsize at the Lakers' home court?The explanation given by the last three referees was to give the Lakers a little "home field advantage", which also made Chinchilla drunk.

"I don't want to go back to the Staples Arena to play games. They have a little [home court advantage] and let us send off five players. We reimbursed one player for the season. If we have a little home court advantage, I'm afraid we won't even have five starters on our team."

Totoro continued to complain, and the reporters in the audience burst into laughter. He used exaggerated rhetoric to amuse the entire press conference reporters, but from the facts, it is not a problem for the team to get five players who can play. In ten thousand steps, even if all the players on the roster are injured, the Rockets can use the injury exception to temporarily sign some free agents back. There are not too many Americans who can play in this world. The problem.

"Okay, I think we'll stop here for the discussion about referees, and now I'm going to focus on the next game." Totoro also said that he had almost achieved his expected goal and said this to the reporters in the audience. Don't continue the topic. Accepting what you see is a knowledge that everyone in society needs to master. People make mistakes. Now you are catching others as a small trick and clinging to it. It is conceivable. Know what will happen to you when you have a small trick in the hands of others.

Moreover, always making cold meals hot will always give people a feeling of looking down on you. Some fans will think that you are a petty person. Totoro will not do such things that seriously lose fans.

The sixth game between the Rockets and the Lakers began. The players hugged and greeted each other before the game. In fact, judging from the historical battle records of the two teams, the Rockets and the Lakers have neither a relationship nor a feud. They just met on the stage of the Western Conference Finals this year. It's over, everyone is trying their best to win the game, but the loser won't have too much hatred for the winner. Kobe still expressed in the early days that he was very optimistic about Totoro, and bluntly said that he is his successor , but with the rapid growth of Totoro's influence threatening him, now the boss has long forgotten what he said before.

The referee for the game this time was Bennett Salvatore. The Lakers fans in front of the TV felt their asses tighten when they saw this old man, and then scolded the league for not wanting Bilian. , Actually played a balance for myself at this time.

Unlike the referee who was heavily inclined to the Lakers in the last game, Bennett Salvatore is an out-and-out Houstonian. In more than 1300 law enforcement games, he has a winning rate of 85% when calling the Rockets. The Rockets basically won all the games, so put this referee with such a serious situation as Houston in the life-and-death battle of the Western Conference Finals, and it was after the black ball incident in the last game. If the referee did not deliberately find a balance, the Lakers fans are the first The first one jumped out to be dissatisfied.

But there is a saying, there are really very few things that players and coaches can control on the court. Since the league deliberately seeks balance, there is nothing you can do about it, and Bennett Salvatore, as a veteran An old actor. No, it should be said that he is an experienced referee. He taught those young referees a lesson with his actions, how to blow the home whistle without leaving any traces.

First of all, he removed the double standard that other referees have been putting on Yao Ming, and gave Yao Ming a normal NBA player's whistle environment. Dayao's arm will be called a foul. Yao Ming stood on the free throw line 12 times in the first quarter and made 11 free throws. Fans who didn't know it thought Zen Master was in a daze and using the tactics of cutting Yao, but Zen Master thought he was The players were not allowed to do this today.

Give the free throws that should be given to Yao Ming, the Lakers players have nothing to complain about, because they have been taking advantage of it, and now the referee just takes it away and puts everything on a fair level, if you are not convinced I can show you the video, if you are not convinced, you can complain to me?There is nothing wrong with my whistleblowing, okay?
Yao Ming almost destroyed the inside of the Lakers with free throws, which also made those Yao Hei speechless. In the past, Yao Ming had not played a few playoff games to prove himself due to injuries, but he was constantly criticized by Yao Hei Ah, spray this, that won't work, that won't work, this one is soft, that one is soft, it seems that the air in foreign countries is sweet, and the moon in foreign countries is always rounder than in China.

But when Yao Ming was able to let go of the burden on his shoulders, and he really became the second master and got enough rest time to ensure his physical strength, the destructive power of the little giant in the playoffs was extraordinary. I have experience that once the Sharks are facing Yao Ming, they will be blasted again and again without exception, and once Gasol is used to defend Yao Ming, the effect is indeed better than Bynum, but Gasol's defensive ability is completely gone. Yes, and not only that, the huge consumption of physical strength made the sister-in-law's support on the offensive end also unable to do what she wanted. The Rockets, who are all soldiers, sacrificed a Yao and others could stand up, but the Lakers completely collapsed after replacing a sister-in-law , What is the difference between their lineup and the lineup that couldn't even make the playoffs in previous years?
But anyway, Kobe exploded today. According to the metaphysics of character theory, the boss has already made a series. Today is his turn to explode for a while. After the first game, Kobe is in the first game this time He made 7 of 7 shots in the quarter and scored 100 points with a 17% shooting rate, including 2 of 2 free throws and 3 of 3 three-pointers. Bite the Rockets.

In stark contrast to the volute and the little giant, today Totoro seems to have lost all his skill sets and has no touch. He made 5 of 0 shots in the opening game and scored 4 points only by free throws. He didn't make the basket, which is quite different from the arrogance he said before the game that he would not play the seventh game. This kind of situation is rare, and the general manager Totoro did not have such a situation in the first season, but this is also the dragon. The cat's abnormality gave the Lakers a chance to breathe, otherwise, the Lakers would have to spend again with the little giant in today's state.

At the beginning of the second quarter, Totoro continued to be put on the court by Adelman. This time, Totoro learned how to behave. Today, he didn’t stick to offense when he felt bad. Instead, he used himself as a bait to attract a lot of defensive opportunities from the Lakers. And create offensive opportunities for other teammates.

Totoro's trick worked. The Rockets took the opportunity to play a wave of 12-5 attacks to open the score. Phil Jackson was also very entangled off the court. The Zen Master has long seen that today the Rockets are Totoro. , but the question is whether he can make up his mind to shift all his defensive attention to other Rockets.

If in the eyes of people who don't understand football, what's so difficult about this determination?Isn't it reasonable to focus on defending whoever feels good?But that's also based on the fact that they don't have back pain when they stand and talk. If they are going to bear the pressure for the loss of the game, these people are probably more cautious than Zen Master.

After all, Totoro is a friend who has scored 60+ points in a single game twice and 38 points in a single quarter in the playoffs. His offensive explosive power is at a historical level. Today he feels cold, and from a certain point of view, it is his own The reason, but it cannot be denied that this is not the effect of the defensive tactics I have focused on. If the defense against Totoro is released now, and this little guy suddenly opens up, it will be a devastating blow to the Lakers.

Phil Jackson has been unable to make up his mind for a long time. Totoro is still accumulating physical strength on the field. He does not participate in the offense at all, and he puts all his energy on defense. The super giant not only helps the team on offense, but also in other aspects. , Especially for Totoro, a player who can play five positions, it is a nightmare for any team.

Later generations have Warriors Dynasty, Splash Brothers, Cavaliers Legion, the Big Three of Thunder and many other tyrants, but Totoro thinks that they just haven't met him, or else there is nothing wrong with them at all. It is Totoro who feels that his own ability is enough to penetrate them both offensively and defensively.

You can think of Totoro as an enhanced Antetokounmpo in all aspects. He is on par with the Greek monster in height and speed, but weighs 15 pounds. This capital allows Totoro to defend the opponent's big center and Antetokounmpo No, Totoro's high agility allows him to bend down to defend the opponent's point guard better than Antetokounmpo. In terms of vertical jump and horizontal jump, Totoro also has an advantage over the Greek monster, let alone three Points, mid-range, and dribbling skills, perhaps the only thing Antetokounmpo can compare to Totoro is his pair of big palms.

Of course, the reason for this comparison is that Antetokounmpo has already been hailed by fans as an alien against the human body structure as soon as he came out. One can imagine the degree of perversion of Totoro at this time, and the template for Greek monsters entering the league The guarantee is the Rockets' Totoro, but Totoro seems to have shown all the highest heights he can reach in the future. What is even more surprising to fans is that Totoro still has the possibility of improving, which makes some The deadly human anthropology scientists in the United States shouted in disbelief, claiming that the body of a chinchilla is God's darling that is rarely seen once in 100 years.

The Lakers players are even more fucked up. They obviously feel that they are in a decisive basketball battle with aliens. Many teams are proud of their big and small. Small and big tactics are not a problem in front of the Totoro. Once again, Bynum and Kobe The pick-and-roll formed a dislocation, and the little shark on the back of the Totoro blocked Bynum twice. The little shark wanted to elbow the Totoro but was dodged by the opponent with a superhuman reaction speed. He paid a malicious foul and returned Bai was elbowed back by Totoro, and there was another time when Vujacic tried to force Totoro by relying on his short stature and agility, but was abruptly intercepted by the opponent. Totoro, who played serious defense in these rounds, made the Lakers suffer. .

43 to 55, the Lakers trailed by 12 points at halftime, and this was still in the case of the boss and Gasol trying their best to turn the tide. Kobe and his sister-in-law only had a 1-minute break in the first half of the game. Liaoyuan was sent to save the field. Kobe and Gasol can be said to have played their best in this game, but the Lakers were still at a disadvantage in the first half. Totoro’s role today is almost as high as Kobe and his sister-in-law combined On the defensive end, he can make the Lakers lose at least two attackers with his perverted footsteps. On the offensive end, he can make the Lakers lose at least two defenders with his strong magnetic force. According to the words of the reasonable master, this One offense and one defense cost the Lakers at least four players.Isn't the effect there twice that of Kobe and Gasol?
