Chapter 560
The outside world will give various predictions, and judge this ongoing series based on their past experience.

Warriors players will screen the speech and try to avoid being influenced.They took the bus and arrived at the Staples Center early, began to change jerseys and other equipment, and waited calmly for the sixth game.

Curry took a few tennis balls and moved them back and forth in the locker room, looking for his status, while throwing away the extra thoughts in his mind.He has realized that the Lakers have enough strength to defeat them, he is not nervous, and looks at the upcoming game with the mentality of a challenger.

Xu Tian bought a lot of tickets and gave them to people who have been supporting him throughout the season, so that these fans who hardly come to watch the game can feel the atmosphere of the Staples Center once.

Barkley and Kenny Smith came to the venue very early, and the two sat in a lounge to discuss the commentary scale for a while.The two of them have explained the Lakers a lot this season, so it is inevitable that they are a bit biased, reminding each other to remain neutral.

The main members of the Lakers management came to the Staples Center to watch the game on the spot and strive to bring good luck to the team.

This team is the main source of income for the Bass family, so they value the record and are willing to pay for the championship, but the management level is not high.However, the support for players ranks among the top among the management of each team.

Xu Tian lay on the floor of the locker room and asked Gary Vitti to help him stretch. At the same time, he looked at the book in his hand, looking for the information that the Zen master wanted to convey to him.

Zen master Phil Jackson is now working as a management team, but he has some special feelings for the Lakers. He gave Xu Tian a book on psychology for him to read in his spare time.

Xu Tian was very curious about the contents of the book, but after only reading a few pages, he felt drowsy.He and the Zen master also have different ideas, and cannot accept this enlightenment-style pointing method.

Yoga and meditation were the suggestions Kareem Abdul-Jabbar gave to Xu Tian, ​​and he somewhat adopted them.Although he is still young, his career is short, and the longer he can maintain his form, the more money he can earn and more honors.

Staples Center gradually became lively.

The music of "Hall of Fame" continuously spread into the locker room, accompanied by warm-up cheers.Even without entering the field, you can feel that the enthusiasm of the fans is higher than that of the fourth game.

George arrived at the Staples Center a bit late due to traffic jams on the road. He hurriedly changed his equipment and completed the pre-match routine with his teammates, and it was time to enter the arena.

Kobe trotted into the court, immediately greeted with applause and cheers.He has represented this team for 20 years, and after such a long time of baptism, he has already become the totem of this team.It's no surprise that it's so popular.

In the shooting warm-up session, George performed stretching exercises to wake up his stiff body.

Xu Tian still shoots the ball simply, looking for the muscle state, and at the same time adapting to factors such as the lighting and atmosphere of the venue.He is a person with extremely well-developed eyesight, and can be extremely sensitive to changes in the outside world, so he needs to adapt in advance.

Kobe did a simple stretch, came to the right side of the court, and made two baskets from the corner, both of which were missed.He doesn't feel particularly good physically and needs to find his status.

Barkley and Kenny Smith have already taken their seats at the commentary booth and started talking about the game.

The two expressed different views on Kobe's comeback.

Barkley said: "Hey, Kenny. I think at this stage of the game, a sudden comeback of a certain player will affect the chemical reaction that has been established. I personally think it is not a good choice."

Kenny Smith said: "Please! It's Kobe who is coming back. He's Kobe. How could he destroy the chemistry. I don't agree with you."

Barkley insisted on his own opinion: "Kobe is not 20 years old. He is now in the later stages of his career. It is really unknown whether he can keep up with the fast rotation of the Warriors."

Kenny Smith said: "Okay! Let's not analyze the favorable or unfavorable factors tonight, and only focus on the game itself."

Xu Tian took off his warm-up suit, touched the bracelet on his right hand with his left hand, calmed down, forgot what happened before, and played this as the first match.

TNT announced the starting lineups of both sides!

Lakers: Xu Tian, ​​Kobe, George, Nance Jr., McGee!
Warriors: Curry, Klay Thompson, Iguodala, Draymond Green, Bogut!

Adam Silver has been watching the last few games live because the Western Conference champion will be produced at any time.He observed the reaction of the fans first, and he felt very satisfied when he saw that people were very excited.

Unlike his predecessor, David Stern, he paid more attention to business development, and put less energy into betting on the excitement of the game itself.

Barkley saw the players entering the court and said: "Okay! The sixth game of the 2015-16 Western Conference Finals will be played at the Staples Center. In the previous five games, the two sides scored 2-3. The Lakers One game behind for now."

Kenny Smith said: "For the Lakers, this game cannot be lost, and the Warriors still have a fault tolerance rate. But they have lost two games in a row. If they lose this game again, all their morale may disappear. But Either way, let the game tell the answer."

Steve Kerr first observed Xu Tian's expression, there was no wave in the ancient well, and he couldn't see anything.This is what he admires most about Xu Tian. At the age of 20, he has a maturity and stability far beyond his age.

Bryant stretched his legs, watched the referee walk into the court with the ball, and realized the game was about to start.

McGee and Bogut stood on both sides of the middle circle, staring at the ball in the hands of the referee, waiting for it to fly into the air.

The moment Xu Tian touched the ball, the game officially started.

Steve Kerr still did not change his defensive tactics, and tried to use Iguodala to lead Xu Tian first to see if it worked.

Xu Tian passed the ball to Kobe, and ran to the frontcourt without the ball on the left, ready to start running tactics.

Curry was in charge of defending Kobe, and his movement speed did not suffer. He observed the Lakers' defensive positions, lowered their center of gravity, and moved laterally to defend.

Xu Tian ran over to prepare for the pick-and-roll, but was dismissed by Kobe with gestures, indicating that he wanted to play singles with the ball.He hasn't played for a while, and he wants to find an offensive rhythm at the beginning of the game.

Curry saw that Kobe wanted to play singles, so he put it up to defend and didn't give him room to shoot.

Since the Achilles tendon injury, Kobe's movement speed has dropped sharply, and it has become unrealistic to rely solely on explosive power, so Curry is not worried.

Xu Tian ran to the right corner, dragged Iguodala's defense over, and stood watching Kobe play singles with the ball.

Kobe has a taller height, habitually holds the ball with his back, gradually penetrates into the three-point line with strength, turns around and shakes, and tries a fadeaway jumper.
