Chapter 1993: There Is Not Much Time Left for the Heat in Daily Operations.
Staples~
When the cameras frequently went to the auditorium to take pictures, knowledgeable friends all understood that this game was no longer suspense, and now it has entered the garbage time that Lakers fans love to hate.
Love, of course, because in this crucial G1 of the finals, the Lakers once again got off to a good start as expected, and the fans can put their hearts back in their stomachs. Since the Lakers returned to the finals in the 2007-2008 season, , the Lakers have not lost the first game in any round of the playoffs for five consecutive seasons. This is also a brand-new record in the NBA and a new record in team history. The last person to set this record was Magic Johnson, and his team also lost the first game in five consecutive seasons. In the five finals, they were beaten to pieces by the Green Army only twice.
"There really aren't many records left of the magician," the commentator said.
But looking at the magician sitting in the commentary booth with a happy face written all over his face, you will know that who cares, now is the time to enjoy, and recording this thing is not for transcendence.
As for hatred, it was naturally because big-name players like Ji Feng, Kobe Bryant, and Gasol sat off the court in the last few minutes. Many fans felt that they had gotten a 20% discount on the tickets they had paid a high price for. Some fans complained online:
Can't the Heat be stronger?
The Heat fans were so angry that they wanted to refute it but didn’t know how. After all, this dazzling point difference was right there. All the awesomeness they boasted about before the game was swallowed up by themselves. It felt like no one else could. .
Of course, what Lakers fans 'hate' the most is that Ji Feng's data once again drove countless obsessive-compulsive fans around the world to their deaths.
Tonight, Ji Feng explained what it means to be the true No. 1 player in the league. After being slightly suppressed by James in the first half, Ji Feng showed his true strength in the third quarter and left his opponent behind.
Ji Feng played 34 minutes and 23 seconds in the game. He made 15 of 21 shots, 4 of 6 three-pointers, and all 9 free throws. He contributed the most 43 points in the game, of which Ji Feng contributed 21 points in the third quarter. This is also the 21st time in Ji Feng's career in the playoffs that he has scored 20 points in a single quarter, and the 6th time in the finals that he has scored 20+ in a single quarter. These numbers are both the first in the league.
However, these are not even widely reported in the news. After all, Ji Feng is setting new records in almost every game. If it is not his own, or it is someone else's, this thing is no longer news. Everyone is used to it. When Ji Feng performs like this, it is enough for everyone to shout 'incredible' or 'Ji Feng starts again'.
More importantly, Ji Feng also sent out 12 assists, which is still the highest in the game. The average assists per game in this playoffs has remained at an astonishing 12.3 times. The only person who can rival him is Rondo, who averages 11.8 times per game next door. It's a pity that Rondo has gone home early. Ji Feng has almost locked up the title of assists king in the playoffs.
Of course, a large double-double like this is not shocking news. People are used to Ji Feng getting a triple-double. But this time, Ji Feng scored 20+10+8 in less than three quarters. Logically speaking, this is not the case. Got a triple-double.
As a result, it didn’t!
Ji Feng's rebound count actually stagnated after he got 8 early. It wasn't until the beginning of the fourth quarter that Ji Feng used a frontcourt tip-in to get his ninth rebound. What's even more outrageous is that after two rounds, Ji Feng left the game, and then because the situation was too favorable, Ji Feng never came back...
return…
Come…
So Ji Feng's statistics were fixed at 43 points, 12 assists and 9 rebounds, plus 3 steals and 3 blocks, a large-scale triple-double.
One rebound short...
Even the commentators on the sidelines were scratching their heads anxiously. After watching the game, O'Neal threatened to go to the Lakers locker room to find Ji Feng and force him not to play like this again.
"This is simply a disaster of obsessive-compulsive disorder!" O'Neal complained: "If it were me, I would definitely go up and get another rebound. After all, the Heat were so strong in the end that a rebound was as easy as eating cake."
Daily humiliation, but this is not the point. Even O'Neal was outraged by Ji Feng's attitude of not caring about data. You can imagine the uncomfortable mood of ordinary fans.
The reporter also asked Ji Feng specifically about this rebound after the game. However, Ji Feng was confused: "Isn't it just a rebound? I think if I win, I won't play again. My teammates played very well."
"Then you don't care about triple-doubles. With this rebound, you can reach 36 triple-doubles in the playoffs."
"Um...it's just a triple-double. It's no big deal. This season's game hasn't been finished yet, and I won't be in the playoffs after that. Besides, isn't a triple-double easy?" Ji Feng spread his hands with his face. innocent.
He has long since become the triple-double king of the playoffs. To be honest, he really doesn't care anymore...
Reporter: "..." Well, you won, it's really old Versailles.
Ji Feng doesn't care about triple-doubles, but it doesn't mean that no one has a triple-double in this game. James scored 30 points, 10 rebounds and 10 assists in this game, a standard triple-double. Although the Heat lost miserably, James' triple-double It's the last fig leaf.
However, considering that James did not leave the game until 5 and a half minutes left in the game, there is not much to say about the quality of this triple-double.
Of course, the reason why the Heat lost so miserably was because the other two giants were completely out of shape. Wade only scored 13 points in the game and made 7 turnovers. Ji Feng blocked 2 shots and stole 2 times. The rest of the time was spent by Kobe. He couldn't find the offensive direction under strict defense. Kobe also got 20 points and 6 assists and rebounds on top of him. In short, it was a miserable situation.
Bosh was even worse. He scored 16 points under the Lakers' internal rotation, but only scored 4 rebounds. Next door Haslem also only had 6 points and 5 rebounds. The two of them combined did not get 10 rebounds.
Look at the Lakers' insiders. Although their scores are average, Gasol has 14 points and Bynum has 16 points, but the two of them have 10 rebounds and the other has 11 rebounds, which is more than twice as many as the Heat's inside players. It is reasonable for the Heat to lose. .
In addition, the gap between the substitutes is also very large. Although Artest was beaten by James and only scored 2 points, 2 turnovers and 1 rebound in 15 minutes, the others played well. Farmar had 8 points, Fisher had 4 points and 3 assists. Kapono scored 6 points. Although no one scored in double figures, he still scored 8 points more than the Heat next door and performed very well.
After this game, the Lakers' possibility of winning the championship greatly increased, and the Heat once again humbled themselves into the dust. Not many people were optimistic about them, and now they are even fewer.
ESPN even translated a very classic sentence to the Heat: "If we continue to fight like this, the time left for the Heat is really running out."
But for the Heat, although this game was a miserable loss, it at least proved one thing, that is, they have no hope in playing position. The Lakers' position is too strong, so the Heat are ready to win in the second game. Show your true skills!
