Chapter 268 Grand Champion

The fourth game started as scheduled, but the Rockets were not as calm as they were in the interview with the media before the game. After Totoro's interview was exposed, neutral fans and other stars immediately thought he was farting.

Kobe, who had always been at odds with Totoro, said bluntly that even if he won the championship this year, he would not be able to compare with his status in the NBA, let alone those ancient gods. He thought Totoro should respect his Compatriot Yao Ming learns what humility and respect are.

And James and Anthony, who had conflicts with Totoro, were more blunt. He believed that Totoro had achieved certain achievements and began to swell. Having achieved today's achievements, the little emperor said that if he was in the Rockets right now, his achievements would definitely be no worse than Totoro!
Of course, the blogs of Little Emperor and Melon were completely captured by Totoro fans as soon as they made their voices. The blogs and Facebook are all about winning a championship before commenting on other people’s remarks. James is okay, after all, the influence of orangutans is also at the global level. Yes, fans of the Little Emperor also ran to Totoro to make trouble. Fans from both sides engaged in a fierce melee under the Twitter of their respective stars. The fight was very lively, but Anthony did not have as much appeal as Totoro. The gangsters are powerful, but the navy is really not good enough. The few melon fans were quickly rubbed by the red dragon sect's followers on the ground.

These are all digressions. Today, the Magic started with a very high momentum. Howard's tough singles against Yao Ming succeeded three times?Lewis, Turkoglu and Redick also hit three-pointers repeatedly. The Magic actually led the Rockets by 16 points in the first quarter?
The Magic themselves know that there is no hope for this year's championship, but they definitely cannot accept that they are swept away, and they cannot accept that their opponent wins the championship at their own home court. No matter how bad they are, they will reach the NBA Finals Is it true that professional teams can't even win a game with the Rockets?

And the most important thing is the outflow of Totoro's interview. The Rockets' underestimation of the enemy even aroused the hatred of the Magic players.

However, the most important reason for the Magic to take such a big lead is that the Rockets themselves don’t feel good. Chinchillas have been feeling hot since the game against the Lakers, and they are in a hot state. According to the character theory, what do you say today? It’s time to fall back. In the first quarter, the Totoro only made 11 of 3 shots. It didn’t make Kobe and James in front of the TV smile so badly that they could smash the rim of the Amway Arena. down.

And it doesn't matter if Totoro has a bad touch, he can still play the ball, but the whole team's touch is not good, and with the help of the referee, the Rockets who break through to the inside can't get fouled, which is 16 points behind. It's a matter of course.

"Guys, we had a good time. Now is the time to accept the game. There has never been a 0-3 comeback team in the history of the nba. That is a taboo that cannot be broken, but the nba is A place where countless miracles are brewed, don't you intend to make yourself a part of this pillar of shame?"

During the rest of the first quarter, Adelman said to the Rockets generals with a serious face, he can understand that the offense can't score, and everyone has a bad day, but they can't defend well, and they can't grab rebounds well. , That is the problem of the attitude of the players. It seems that the day before yesterday I led these boys too high. It is easy for a nervous person to relax, but it is a bit difficult for him to get nervous again. This is the situation of the Rockets now.

Although Adelman gave them a little nod during the break in the first quarter, the old coach didn't think his words would be of any use unless there were some players who set an example first on the court!
And that player should not be allowed to be the Rockets' core Totoro!
In the second quarter, Totoro opened up his extreme defensive state with teeth and claws. The feeling could not be recovered for a while, and Totoro used all his physical strength on defense. He ran in a large area regardless of physical strength, and fought without fear of injury. Every rebound, every block, every time he fights for the ball, there are many shots of him on the field. , This is not over yet, he rushed out desperately to save the ball, grabbed the basketball into Calderon's arms with his long hands, and fell into the cheerleaders of the Magic because he lost his center of gravity. With a scream, the chinchillas were surrounded, touching or eating his tofu, and some bold beauties even wanted to take off his sweatpants, so scared that the chinchillas hurriedly grunted from the ground regardless of whether they were hurt or not. Get up and escape.

There is a desperate boss who leads by example, and other teammates of course follow suit. People always say that if you love a soldier, you will love a nest. This sentence is also applicable in the NBA. If Chinchilla does not love, the Rockets will never As long as Totoro plays seriously, the Rockets will not let up. As the cornerstone of the Rockets, Totoro has successfully imprinted its own characteristics on this team. This is also true for the Rockets and Totoro. It is very important that no matter what big name comes to the Rockets in the future, as long as he is still there, as long as he can still play, this team will be Totoro's team.

The Rockets chased the score to within 10 points at the end of the second quarter. The lack of overtaking was entirely because they still couldn't get back their touch, but defense alone could force the Magic to make 10 turnovers in a single quarter. Poor 12 points, you know the Rockets' defensive skills.

The defense of the Rockets has always existed in the upper reaches of the league. The reason why they did not leave the label of a strong defensive team to the outside world is entirely because the Rockets' offensive firepower is too strong. But if you look closely at the Rockets' lineup, you will find Battier , Iguodala, Yao Ming and other defensive champions are all in the Rockets' lineup. With the assistance of more and more fans this year, the Chinchillas are complaining about not getting the best defensive player. The Rockets can completely rely on defense to paralyze their opponents stand up.

Adelman applauded sincerely for the Rockets, applauded for the Totoro, and applauded for himself.

He is very glad that he spared no effort to use the team's chips in exchange for this USC University of California boy at the beginning of the season. Originally, the Rockets did not plan to make any moves in the draft this year. They had already won in the summer. Without Artest, plus Yao Ming and McGrady to form their own Big Three, the Rockets originally planned to hit the championship this year.

But with one decision, all the previous plans were reversed. McGrady is still in the Knicks for retirement, and Artest is the leader of the locker room in the 76ers, but they don’t know how much they have. I hope I want to return to the rocket formation, because their fingers are also empty!

During the halftime break, Adelman declined any media interview requests. In the locker room, Totoro and Yao Ming were lying on massage chairs for an ice bath. Since this is the visiting team’s locker room, there are only two massage beds. Totoro has no dispute The other one is basically Dayao’s, but the kind-hearted Dayao sometimes lets other people enjoy it. If it’s at the rocket’s home court, the boss has equipped four massage beds. , Yao Ming and Totoro each have two cards, and the other two Rockets players will take turns to have fun. The atmosphere in the team is very harmonious but the priority is clear. Such a team is the most powerful.

"Hey, let me tell you guys, has anyone thought up the winning speech? Can you give me a reference."

The players in the locker room are all doing their own things. It's not that there is disharmony between them, but that there is still half a game left before they can finally reap the fruits of a year's labor, or even years or decades. The gang players were so excited that no one wanted to speak when they were so nervous. ~
One sentence from Totoro broke the weird atmosphere, and other teammates laughed when they heard the words. Totoro will not only have his own speech, but also an acceptance speech on behalf of the team. This is another long story. .

As Totoro's caring manager, Bugayi naturally prepared all the manuscripts for Totoro, but she was too careful, and she memorized a large pile of manuscripts no matter whether Totoro needed it or not. In the end, the chinchilla didn't look at anything after one head and two big ones, and now it's about to go into battle shirtless.

"Haha, cat! Our championship speech is different from yours. You also need to talk about the team speech and fmvp award speech. We can't help you with this."

Randolph yelled strangely from the side, the relationship between Grizzly Bear and Totoro is not bad, as friends who usually play games together, Rotten Tofu likes to see Totoro make a fool of himself.

"How about, let me give you the fmvp testimonial, and I'll take the trophy back by the way, my brother hasn't won the fmvp yet!"

Little Gasol smiled like a 300-pound child, and the people next to him were booing the shameless little Gasol. This second-brick rookie center averaged less than double-digit playing time in the finals. The cat discusses fmvp, how shameless is it to say such a thing?
Of course, the boos of the Rockets players are boos in good faith, because they know that Gasol Jr. is also joking, and this little guy has plenty of potential. In the limited playing time of 6.3 minutes in the finals, he can contribute 3.2 points, 1.6 rebounds and 0.5 blocks, converted into an average of 30 minutes per game, the data will become 16 points, 8 rebounds and 4 blocks. This is the report card of a top-paid center.

Although the account can't be calculated like this, Gasol doesn't match up with Howard, and he usually comes off the bench to compete with the opponent's second and third substitutes, but this also shows that Gasol is not in the pool.

"Your brother doesn't have a ring in the finals yet, and he doesn't have a scoring record in the finals. In this regard, you are much stronger than your brother."

Others made fun of Xiaojia, Big Gasol might be depressed right now, maybe he is also in front of the TV right now, envious and jealous of his younger brother who can fight on the floor of the finals.

At the end of the intermission, the Rockets were chatted by Totoro, and most of the psychological burden was immediately let go. Calderon made a steady three-pointer in the opening game, Battier was chasing two, and the Rockets quickly made up the difference Smoothed out.

In terms of three-point shooting ability, the Rockets are no worse than the Magic, and with Totoro and Yao Ming, they are destined to shoot easier than their opponents. The reason why they didn’t start in the first half may be because they couldn’t calm down. Excitement has something to do with it. The ball is either shot lightly or heavy. Now after a wave of spiritual chats with Totoro, the Rockets players, who have let go of the pressure, feel relieved, and instantly return to their positions as a frightening shooter brigade.

Howard wants to help the Magic regain their lead, but the Rockets' defensive strength has not come down. Coupled with the large-scale mobile defense team composed of Totoro + Battier, the Magic took the lead from the beginning of the second quarter. The fiery feel of the festival was completely lost.

And their hearts are desperate. It’s okay if they haven’t led by a big score before. After leading this time, they are like a mirror in the water. They were hit by the Rockets in two quarters before liberation. This is worse than falling behind from the beginning to the tail To make people despair, they have no chance of defeating the Rockets at all. Totoro feels cold, and the little giant will stand up, such as the third game. At this moment, Totoro and Yao Ming are both feeling cold, and they can rely on Defensively beat themselves to death, and substitute players and role players can also stand up and take over the game. They have ten thousand ways to defeat themselves, but they can't find a way to win against the Rockets on their own side. What a sad fact.
At the end of the third quarter, the Rockets successfully established a 12-point lead, and the Rockets Law officially started. When the Rockets led others by more than 10 points, they have never been reversed in this year's playoffs. A tried and true law.

But in the fourth quarter, there was still a bit of turmoil. Due to the excitement resurging in my heart, the shooting of the Rockets became unstable again. The score narrowed the point difference to single digits, and gave the Magic players a glimmer of hope.

However, there is a Chinchilla in the Rockets who is on the hook. Half of his shooting accuracy depends on the system, so although his emotions are also very excited, there is always a probability of scoring, for example, out of 10 three-pointers After all, there are 3, so that he will not be beaten and collapsed at any time.

Totoro "Bang Bang Bang" responded with three three-pointers. After breaking through to double digits in this game, he also opened up the point difference to 15 points. Big Van Gundy called for money in advance and announced his surrender. In 14, he won another championship honor!
