Chapter 1586 The only Way Out Is to Attack
"Okay, the referee blew the whistle to end the game. The Lakers won another victory at their home court, leading the Suns with a big score of 2-0. They are getting closer and closer to the finals."
"In the history of the NBA playoffs, the advancement rate of teams leading 2-0 is as high as 93%, which means that the Lakers have actually entered the finals." Yu Jia was in the broadcast seat on the sidelines. said.
"Of course, the Suns still have a chance. In NBA history, there have been 6 comebacks when trailing 0-2 in the conference finals. However, if the Suns want to do it, the first game back at home is particularly important. After all, no team can complete a comeback from 0-3," Director Zhang continued.
Tonight, the two of them were calm and composed. The Lakers played very smoothly throughout the game. It looked like the point difference was smaller than the first game, but in fact it was even smoother than the first quarter. The whole game was almost settled after the first quarter. The tone of the game.
And the best thing is that they don't have to compete with hundreds of reporters today. In twenty minutes, Ji Feng will accept their exclusive interview. Looking at the envious eyes of his Japanese colleagues in South Korea next door, Zhang Yuer People feel twice as happy.
In the TNT broadcast booth, Barkley was talking very quickly about the statistics of the two teams; "Tonight, 6 Lakers scored in double figures, Ji Feng 26 points, 10 assists and 8 rebounds, Kobe Bryant 25 points, Gasol 20 After the first round, the three giants once again scored 20 points at the same time. At the same time, Artest had 11 points, 8 rebounds and 6 assists. Bynum also had a double-double with 10 points and 10 rebounds. Substitute Powell seized the opportunity in garbage time. He made 5 of 6 and scored 10 points. This was the first time in his career that Powell scored in double figures in the playoffs. Maybe the Lakers should give him a chicken leg. "
"As for the Suns, their offense was still mediocre tonight. Although they scored over 100 points, they were 9 points less than their average score in the first two rounds. Nash still only scored 12 points and 8 assists. Stoudemire scored 28 points and 10 rebounds. The shooting percentage was only 42%, which is a bit low for a person who scores 80% of his points in the paint. Grant Hill performed stably and scored 16 points, 6 rebounds and 5 assists. He showed his all-around performance. I feel more and more now, If there were no injuries, maybe that fat guy O'Neal would have won another championship."
O'Neal: "?,? WTF!"
"The other is their star of hope Dragic. This guy lacks a pressure test. He was ravaged by Kobe, Ji Feng, and Artest. He had 10 points and 10 turnovers in the game. He scored a very reliable double-double. His The pass was very satisfying to the audience, and they were almost ready to applaud him. Should he be excited? He should be the first person from the visiting team to complete this feat at Staples, but...SHIT, Gentry Maybe he should go back and face the wall and think about how to throw the basketball. Of course, he is still the last guy in the Suns to score in double figures, which shows that it is natural for the Suns to fail."
"Finally." Barkley, who had been talking for a long time and made the fans watching the live broadcast laugh, finally became serious:
"The Suns don't have many chances. If they keep playing like this, the Lakers may sweep and advance to the Finals for the second time in team history."
The Lakers have won 10 consecutive victories in this playoffs. Neither the Thunder nor the Jazz have caused any trouble for the Lakers. Unexpectedly, the Suns, who are listed as the hope of the whole village, are still unable to parry.
In 10 games, the Lakers averaged a margin of 18.8 points per game. This was despite the fact that the Lakers released a lot of water. Even though Ji Feng and Kobe Bryant's scores were average, this was an average of 34 minutes per game.
Some fans joked: "Have you seen the sea next to Santa Monica Beach? That's all water released by the Lakers."
But this has also set a historical record, this is the playoffs!
This record is even more exaggerated than the unsolvable 2000 season, and the Lakers have also brought many people back to the terrifying era dominated by purple and gold ten years ago.
Think about why Iverson is so popular. Now it seems that in addition to his unruly character and strong strength, leading the team to defeat the contemporary invincible Lakers on the road in the 2000 Finals was also the pinnacle moment of his career.
But even he only did it once, and this time, the Lakers looked even more terrifying than before.
With the fully evolved Ji Feng and Kobe still at his peak, the JK combination finally reached its peak in his third season, coupled with a group of brave players and the most successful head coach in history.
They are on their way to a sweep of the championship that has never been achieved.
Yes, this is what David Stern is worried about. Although it is legendary to sweep the championship, what to do with the ratings and tickets, these are all real money!
So David Stern quietly raised the difficulty level for the Lakers in Game 3, and prayed that the Eastern Conference next door wouldn't give him another 2-0.
However, the prayer failed.
On May 21, the second game between the Magic and the Celtics started again in Orlando. The Magic were united in this game. They are different from the Suns. The Suns are on the road. If they lose, they can return to their home court to regroup. They are at home. 2 -0 is all over!
However, that's what they think, but it's not the same thing when it comes to fighting.
You can see the referee's standards in this game. Howard made two consecutive fouls on Perkins, causing the latter to leave the game early. Warcraft's free throws are not considered a stretch, and he made 2 of 4 free throws, which was always his own level. Average.
The Warcraft revived throughout the game, scoring 30 points and 18 rebounds, and forced Perkins to leave the game with 6 fouls, and Rasheed Wallace also committed 5 fouls.
Carter also had a smooth start, scoring 6 points on 3-for-3 shooting. He scored 20 points in the whole game, and he and Ray Allen, who scored 18 points, were also exchanged.
It stands to reason that the 10-2 start was perfect, and the Magic also took a 40-30 lead at halftime. However, the more the game went on, the more out of control the situation became.
This gap appears between positions 1 and 4.
Garnett beat Lewis. Last season, Lewis averaged 22.6 points per game and sent the Celtics home. The biggest reason was that no one could guard him. Now, Garnett has demonstrated the ability of a historical power forward and an ordinary star power forward. real gap.
Lewis did not make a successful breakthrough in the entire game. He took 6 shots and made 2 shots, scoring only 4 points. Although Garnett made 5 of 16 shots, he only scored 15 points, but that was three times as many as Lewis. Want more.
The biggest gap turned out to be at the No. 1 position. Nelson, last season's All-Star, was completely beaten by this season's All-Star Rondo.
Rondo shot 10 of 16 from the field and scored 25 points, 8 assists and 5 rebounds. Nelson, who was guarded, only scored 9 points on 4 of 12 from the field.
These two points were completely destroyed and Howard's efforts were in vain. 95-92, the Green Army made another victory, and the big score also became 2-0!
David Stern: "Okay, it's all over~!"
The Magic, who didn't know that they had made the CEO angry in Tianjin, knew that they were getting further and further away from the finals this season.
But the sun has not given up yet.
Back in Phoenix, Gentry brought the team to the court: "Guys, for now, offense is the only way to go."
