Legendary basketball manager

The moment he started, Deshaun Stevenson (who replaced Terry in the defensive round) who was in charge of defending Metta World Peace also rushed over and formed a pincer with Marion.

At this time, there were two roads in front of Kobe.

One is to pass the ball to Ci Shiping, but Artest's hand feels cold today, and only 5 points have been scored so far.

The second is to fight by yourself, but you need to find opportunities under the defense of the two, and there is a high probability that you will have to force a shot in the end.

[It seems... the first option seems to have a higher success rate? ]

A thought flashed through Kobe's mind.

Ever since, he made the final choice...to do it himself!

What is there to think about?

Isn't that what superstars do?

Kobe lowered his center of gravity and accelerated his breakthrough to the right.

Marion's reaction was obviously faster this time, he took the first step and got stuck.

Bryant was bumped and slightly deflected from the breakthrough line.

In desperation, he had no choice but to dribble horizontally, intending to open up space.

At this time, Stevenson had rushed up from behind Kobe.

In an instant, the two defenders of the Mavericks had formed a siege, and they were about to force Kobe to the sideline.

Moreover, there are only three seconds left on the offensive clock, and the Lakers No. 24 has no room to turn around...

He can either shoot or pass, but he has to make a shot!

Fortunately, there is no way out.

In the blink of an eye, Bryant found a feasible breakthrough route.

I saw his left hand leaning on Marion who was grabbing up, and suddenly turned around...

This turn was so clever that it happened to pass between Stevenson and Marion before Stevenson arrived!

"woo..."

The fans at the scene exclaimed.

Many fans seemed to have foreseen something, and they all showed desperate expressions.

At this time, Kobe, who made a bloody way out of the double-team defense, bent his knees at the free throw line, collected the ball, made an emergency stop to take off, made a shot, pressed his wrist...

The whole set of movements is flowing and extremely stretched, which can only be described as "picturesque".

Behind him, Marion and Stevenson took off in a panic, but they couldn't interfere with Kobe's shooting at all.

The basketball spun at high speed, and after drawing a beautiful arc in the air, it crashed into the net!

Moreover, the moment the ball falls into the net, the red light on the timer lights up at the same time...

Buzzer lore!

After the goal, Kobe loosened the jersey from his mouth, smiled and raised his arms, waiting to rush to his teammates, showing a kingly attitude.

Nowitzki on the side shook his head helplessly, his face full of loneliness.

His performance in this game has been very good, but Kobe is even better.

Kidd silently walked behind the driver and patted him on the back.

"Next time, I will play better."

Nuo Tianwang said seriously.

"I know."

Kidd nodded and continued to comfort Nowitzki.

The two looked at Kobe, who was surrounded by groups, with envy on their faces.

Kobe's hand is full of rings, but they are still working hard for the first career championship.

"Let's go, let's fight again next time."

Kidd said lightly.

"Ah."

Nowitzki nodded.

Accompanied by the two, they left through the player channel.

............

In the box of the Toyota Center Arena, Shen Fei turned off the live broadcast without further ado.

The Lakers actually beat the Mavericks in Game [-]...

This means that the initiative of the series fell to the Lakers.

In the next game, if the Mavericks are still unable to defend their home court, it may be difficult to win this round of the series.

However, so far, Shen Fei is still more optimistic about Mavericks.

After all, judging from the situation of the game, the Lakers adopted a short rotation and won the game in the way of "fucking" Kobe.

In contrast, the Mavericks have more players and a more reasonable offense.

And... Nowitzki's performance today can only be described as good.

But in the original time and space, Nuo Tianwang almost carried every game when it came to the key games.

[In the next game, you may be able to see Nowitzki in a super god state...]

Shen Fei thought to himself.

The match was over, and Shen Fei also planned to go home and rest.

But just as he was about to get up and leave the box, his cell phone rang.

Looking at the number, it turned out to be Durst calling.

"Boss, Nike hired a private investigator to investigate me!"

Durst said straight to the point.

He used to do dirty work for Nike.

Durst has dabbled in many gray areas, and his anti-reconnaissance ability is much better than ordinary people, so he soon found himself being followed.

"You mean, they might know that you defected to Under Armour?"

Shen Fei asked.

"99%, after all, it's not difficult to find out, and we didn't deliberately hide anything."

Durst replied.

"And then? What do you want to say?"

Shen Fei said calmly.

"em... You asked me that, but I didn't know what to say for a moment, but I was a little worried that Nike would retaliate."

"After all, Stern was not at all used to the selection of awards such as mvp and mvp a while ago."

Durst said worriedly.

"Revenge?" Shen Fei was taken aback when he heard the words, and then he couldn't help but said, "I'm responsible for the sky falling, so you can just do your own thing with peace of mind."

What Durst did before was naturally not glorious, but it was black and white.

Nike can't use legal means to sanction Durst, let alone retaliate against Under Armour.

If Nike wants to use any "other" means, then Shen Fei welcomes it.

As a time traveler, he had too many ideas in his mind to respond to.

If nike has been well-behaved, it will be difficult to operate.

And Durst saw that Shen Fei was so calm, the tension in his heart also dissipated a lot.

"Boss, what am I going to do next?"

Durst asked.

"Yao Ming and Jeremy Lin's signature shoes will be launched soon."

"You have been operating for so long before, so you don't need me to teach you how to do it?"

Shen Fei said lightly.

"Okay! Don't worry about the boss, I promise to do a good job!"

"Lampard is not bad, but he is lacking in experience. I will help him make the next publicity work as perfect as possible."

Durst said confidently.

"Okay, then wait for your good news."

After finishing speaking, Shen Fei hung up the phone.

Durst is an average character, but his work ability is worthy of recognition.

In addition, he just signed a long-term contract with Under Armor, so there is no need to worry about him turning back.

Shen Fei also hopes to use this former Nike backbone to make Under Armor's performance to a higher level.

After finishing all this, Shen Fei drove back to his mansion, washed and rested.

...........

After the two battles in the Western Conference, the fans can be said to have feasted their eyes, and they are discussing frantically on major social platforms at this time.

As the leader of the league, the Rockets, in addition to the loyal fans in the past, now have many so-called "winners".

After the surge in the number of fans, the Rockets' post-match discussions became extremely lively.

In the nba section of reddit (an entertainment, social networking and news website), a netizen nicknamed "Shen Fei's running dog" posted: "Do you still need to watch the Rockets game? Waking up is another victory! I will I want to know, can the Thunder win a game from the Rockets?"

"The Thunder actually played very well this time. Kevin, Russell, and James all played at their own level. But the problem is that the depth of the Rockets' lineup is terrible. If anyone is taken from the bench, it feels like the Thunder will solve it. No."

"I also feel this way! I remember that Jeremy Lin fell out of the rotation some time ago? Why didn't I see you for a while and became so strong after coming back? The part where he competed with Westbrook in the second quarter, give me I'm dumbfounded!"

"I think other teams need to find a private detective or something to investigate how the Rockets usually train. Another Chinese player, Yi Jianlian, was almost out of play in the Wizards at the beginning of the season, and now he can contribute stability as soon as he plays. The projection is like a different person!"

"The Rockets continue their winning streak in the playoffs. I think the Thunder want to win. The three young players have to perform super well. Everyone has [-] or [-] points..."

"McGrady's firepower, Durant can barely offset. Westbrook and Curry exploded each other, Harden...he has to offset with Yao Ming+Griffin+George+Roy! Think about it. Not too possible."

......

The fans had different opinions. Later, even the Rockets fans began to help the Thunder find a way to see how they could win the next game.

It can only be said that the pressure of this Rockets team is too strong.

Durant scored 32 points in this game, Westbrook scored 23 points, Harden also scored 21 points...

The three scored 76 points, but the Thunder still ended in a disastrous defeat, which can't help but make people feel a little desperate.

Of course, for Rockets fans, this crushing feeling is very cool.

Some fans swelled to think that the Rockets' second unit could beat the Thunder.

Such thoughts fell into the ears of Thunder fans, and they were naturally very angry.

But when they think that the Rockets can still put on a strong lineup like Lowry, Roy, Danny Green, Ben Wallace, and Oden even if they remove the starting lineup, they really don't have full confidence to refute!

A fan posted a question: "Why can the Rockets bring together so many outstanding players without exceeding the luxury line?"

A well-known ESPN commentator-a-Smith personally answered under the post:

"It's very simple... this year's new mvp Tracy McGrady signed with the Rockets in the offseason, Ben Wallace is also a veteran's basic salary, and young people like Curry and Griffin are still on rookie contracts."

"To put it simply, the Rockets can have the current configuration because there is no poison contract in the team. Oh no, it should be said that the team is full of high-quality 'cabbage price' contracts!"

"So, don't despair for other teams. After this season, these players who are worth playing may not stay in the Rockets."

A-Smith's words immediately sparked widespread discussion.

Many Rockets fans who understand the ball have actually realized this long ago.

And some "simple" fans, after knowing this information, find it difficult to accept it.

"Isn't it? I thought the Rockets' dynasty was a certainty? A-Smith means... the current lineup can only be kept for such a season? The Rockets will be demolished and rebuilt during the offseason?"

"I just fell in love with this gorgeous Rockets, and you tell me that the team will be dismantled after the season? I can't accept it!!!"

"Upstairs, let me tell you another bad news. Shen Fei said in an interview before that he will reuse Chinese players next season, and even introduce some Chinese players on the basis of Yao, Yi, and Lin."

"Oh, it's over. Are there any NBA-level players in Huaxia? Apart from the three of them, I only know one named... seems to be...Wang Zhizhi? But his level is obviously not good enough for the NBA!"

"No matter what, players who are still on rookie contracts will definitely not leave, so Curry, Griffin, and George will definitely be there. Shen Fei wants to train Chinese players, so Dayao will definitely stay. There are such people, The Rockets will definitely not be weak next season!"

"Upstairs! Believe in the Rockets, believe in Shen Fei! No matter how bad the situation is, can it be worse than it was in June last year? Shen Fei will definitely take care of things. As fans, we just need to enjoy the game!"

............

In addition to the discussions on the Rockets and Thunder, the battle between the Lakers and the Mavericks has also aroused heated discussions.

"Don't underestimate the heart of a championship. After the slump at the beginning of the season, the Lakers have returned to the king! I think that the healthy Zijin Army will be the biggest opponent of the Rockets in the West!"

"You can always trust Kobe! Like this kind of lore, he has been completing his entire career!"

"Come back, everything is back... After recovering from a knee injury, Kobe is back to his best. He is still the best player in the league! This buzzer lore is his return declaration!"

"I can't wait to see the matchup between McGrady and Kobe! Four shooting guards, meet at the top, what kind of fairy script is this!"

......

In general, after the Lakers defeated the Mavericks in the first away game, the fans basically believed that the Lakers would easily beat the Mavericks and join the Rockets in the Western Conference Finals!

These remarks quickly fermented.

In a hotel conference room in Dallas, the Mavericks will gather.

After just losing the game, they spontaneously organized a video analysis meeting.

Just after analyzing the first half of the game, Terry swiped his mobile phone during the break and saw the discussions of the fans.

"It seems that everyone thinks we are doomed..."

Terry said with a half-smile, and then read a few comments to his teammates.

After he finished speaking, the expressions of several Mavericks players obviously changed.

Coach Carlisle knows everyone is simmering, but this is not the time to be angry.

"Okay, take your attention back, let's continue to analyze the video."

"What other people say is none of our business."

"The only thing that matters... the next game, we have to defend the home field!"

Carlisle said seriously.

Everyone nodded and continued to watch the video.

............

The next day, the second round of the Eastern Conference continued!
