Chapter 1348 Advancement, Tonight!

Unknowingly, the Eastern Conference has reached a situation that no one thought of before the game. James tried his best, with 30+ and 30+ in 4 games, but the Cavaliers were still hard to win, with only 40 points in 4 games. Relying on James' incredible kill to defend one home court, the Magic defended two of their home courts in a row. The score has reached a very disparity of 3-1.

Of course, there have been many games in NBA history where the team came back from 1-3 behind. The Magic also led 3-1 in the 2003 Eastern Conference Finals and were defeated by the Pistons in three consecutive games to complete the comeback. Therefore, the Cavaliers It's not like there's no chance.

However, not many people are optimistic that the Cavaliers can reverse the situation and advance. Judging from the performance of the first four games, the Magic's play style and staffing are really too restrained for the Cavaliers. The only thing the Cavaliers can do is James, and other points are ignored. After all, even James can't deal with Turkoglu or Lewis in one-on-one defense, let alone the substitutes. James will cry if he talks too much.

However, Cavaliers fans still retain their illusions. The life-and-death battle at home in Game 5 may be their last chance.

And James' good brother Anthony is in a similar situation to James, or even worse, because although the Nuggets are also facing a 3-1 situation at this time, the next game is an away game, which they have never won in two seasons. Staples.

On May 28, one day after the end of G4 of the Eastern Conference Finals, G5 of the Western Conference Finals came as scheduled at Staples!

The atmosphere between the two teams before the game was very solemn, especially the Lakers, who were leading by a big score. Everyone looked serious. Whether it was the media interviews in the morning or the warm-up training in the afternoon, there were almost no smiles. If you don’t know, I thought the Lakers were the laggards.

The main reason for this is the credit of Jackson. During a routine interview with the media in the morning, the always conservative Zen Master made a shocking statement. When faced with reporters about the outcome of this game, he directly said: "Am I going to say no now?" Do you want to play the next game? If we win this game, we can rest for a few days. I can't wait to go to the finals first. You know, I don't want to go to the Denver Plateau anymore. It's too far for my old bones. , too high.”

"What's the status of your team members?" the reporter asked again.

"Not bad, enough."

As soon as this report came out, it aroused the anger of Nuggets fans. Although what Zen Master said was similar to what the outside world predicted, it was too straightforward and did not treat the Nuggets as a dish. I really can't bear it. !

"BEAT LA!" Nuggets fans roared angrily on the Internet. There were countless responders at once. After all, the Lakers' popularity in the league is really not very good. Fans from all over the world have joined in this massive crusade. You can even occasionally see fans from afar holding such signs on the streets of Los Angeles.

I have to admire the courage of American fans. They dare to do this in the Lakers' base camp. They are really not afraid of getting beaten.

The Lakers have never been very clear about the news on the Internet. Occasionally, fans of other teams who are indifferent have been overwhelmed by the huge Lakers fans. But since the head coach has spoken like this, how can the players not give face to the BOSS? , Ji Feng, Kobe took the lead and entered the game first.

Before the season peak game, I even had a long-awaited half-court three-point shooting training. I hit 7 consecutive shots to show everyone my good and terrifying state and touch. There was even a three-pointer sitting on the bench. The attempt made the fans who entered the stadium first scream in surprise.

And George Karl had a headache watching Ji Feng's state from the opposite side. Sometimes the fans' intentions are good, but the effect is really counterproductive. If you mobilize the state of Ji Feng and the Lakers generals, it will affect the Nuggets. what is the benefit!

Of course, this cannot be said to the outside world. George Karl can only be dumb and eat the yellow lian. Of course, his own team is also in very good shape. After finally winning a game, at least their confidence has increased a lot, and they may not have lost it. The power of a battle!

The referee blew the whistle, and the starting lineups of both sides entered the field. It was still a familiar formula today, and neither side made any starting adjustments.

The game officially begins!

"Viewers, viewers, what you are watching now is the fifth game of the Western Conference Finals Lakers VS Nuggets brought to you by CCTV5. The previous big score was the Lakers leading 3 to 1." Yu Jia said.

"This game will be exciting, because the Nuggets have no way out, and the Lakers are naturally unwilling to drag it out. After all, the Eastern Conference is almost divided. It is the right way to reach the finals early and wait for work, and this is At home, if you lose, you will be too passive, and you may be dragged into the tie-break, which Zen Master will not do." Director Zhang said.

"Yes, Zen Master also said during the interview before the game that he would win this game and advance to the finals. This is a signal." Yu Jia continued.

During the chat between the two, neither team scored in the first minute. Bynum and Billups' shots ended in failure. It was not until the second minute that the Lakers scored with Ji Feng assisting Gasol. The first goal scored by both teams.

However, the rough start did not affect the state of the two teams. After that, the two teams immediately adjusted. The Lakers began to focus on Kobe. Kobe scored 4 points on a sudden outside shot, while the Nuggets focused on the inside. Martin performed well tonight. A layup after the second pick-and-roll helped the Nuggets seize the score.

This game then became more physical contact, just like in Game 4. The Nuggets obviously wanted to use this method to interfere with the Lakers' offensive continuity.

However, the referees tonight are very small, and they will basically call fouls when they encounter them. Obviously, the excessive fouls and flagrant fouls in the last game put pressure on the referees from the league, and they cannot be allowed to play again in this game. .

The Nuggets quickly adjusted their tactics after committing 4 fouls in just 3 minutes. They did not dare to allow players to foul anymore, and instead began to defend intensively to prevent Ji Feng from catching the ball comfortably.

However, Ji Feng quickly switched to holding the ball himself. In this way, the Lakers took advantage of the Nuggets' adjustment stage to suddenly exert force in the second half of the first quarter. Ji Feng first scored a 3-pointer to give the team more firepower, and then made a breakthrough. Bynum stunned the audience with a two-handed dunk over Martin's head.

This also stopped the Nuggets for the first time.

After returning from the timeout, although Anthony hit a 3-pointer and Billups made a free throw to help the Nuggets stabilize the situation 2-1, Ji Feng's 3 passes allowed Gasol to score 6 consecutive points.

Under the leadership of Ji Feng, the Lakers had a 14-6 spurt in the last 4 and a half minutes. At the end of the first quarter, the Lakers led 28-20 by 8 points!

This performance excites the fans. Needless to say, promotion is tonight!
