Chapter 363 Sealing Needle

The Lakers players on the court couldn't help but fall into a daze at this moment.

Not only them, but also the Staples Center Arena, which accommodated 20,000 people, fell into absolute silence at this moment.

Lost?

Did the Lakers lose at home? And still in the entire series, trailing by a big score of 0:3? !

Since the NBA was founded in 1946, there have been dozens of playoffs and hundreds of series, but never has a team been able to complete a comeback after falling behind 0:3.

Now that G3 is defeated again, this does not mean that it is just a loss. It does not only mean that the Lakers have stood on the edge of the cliff, but it seems to mean that the Lakers, who have won three consecutive championships, have been eliminated!

It's clear that the Lakers have gained momentum at the last moment, and it's clear that the last moment is beneficial to the Lakers, but, but...

The stadium with a capacity of 20,000 people was quiet at this time.

The only source of sound was the crazy shouts from the SuperSonics bench: "Win! We won!"

"God! God! God!"

All the rotation players threw their towels and jumped to their feet like crazy.

Without Chandler and the inside gate, it will be very difficult for the SuperSonics to play this game, but after all, we have a God combination, an invincible combination!

Desmond and Brent couldn't help but yell, while Lin Dong and Sakuragi noticed Payton who suddenly fell to his knees.

The joy of winning is there, but it can't cover up the worry about this old guy.

Looking like that, it doesn't just look like he is physically exhausted.

The two people hurriedly ran forward to help him up. Just as they were about to ask, they saw Payton giving them a thumbs-up with sweat all over his head: "Hahaha! Is my shot-blocking handsome? Doesn't it matter?"

Sakuragi Hanamichi breathed a sigh of relief, while Lin Dong frowned and looked at his right leg, only to see Payton reaching out and patting his right leg nonchalantly: "Look at the hair? It's very strong, but it's just tired." That’s all.”

Seeing how easily he patted his legs and stood firmly with his right leg, Lin Dong felt relieved.

Being able to win the game despite losing miserably in the paint, being able to still have enough energy to attack and even block Kobe at the critical moment in the last quarter.

Lin Dong knew that all this was because Payton protected him.

If he is a super racing driver in rally, then Payton is the absolutely indispensable navigator sitting in his co-pilot position. Without him, he would never be able to beat the OK team on his own.

"call……"

Lin Dong let out a big breath, and then a smile appeared on his face.

"Don't always talk about whether you are handsome or not. You are dozens of years old and how handsome you are? Let me teach you a word!" Lin Dong laughed and said: "Awesome!"

"Awesome! Awesome! Hahaha!" Peyton also laughed, and then while holding Sakuragi's shoulders, he reached out and pinched his face: "Not bad, not bad, the apprentice didn't embarrass me. In the end That shot blocking is awesome too!”

"Hahaha..." Sakuragi Hanamichi smiled happily. Winning the game was indeed worthy of being happy, but he was always worried about not being able to get fully excited.

In this game, I have tried everything, but I still can't reach the limit of the 145 kilogram big man. I just can't really limit my opponent!

As for the two goals at the last moment, firstly it was because the opponent was tired, and secondly it was just a lucky shot of his own extraordinary performance.

The team won, but he lost. It didn't matter if he lost, but the promise he made to the boxing champion...

At this time, all the team members rushed forward, surrounded a few people in the middle, and shouted excitedly.

Payton, while Lin Dong and others were not paying attention, quietly stretched out his hand to hold his right leg and squeezed it hard.

Then big beads of sweat fell from his forehead.

Farke!

He cursed in his mind and felt that his entire leg had lost all feeling now. This was definitely not a good sign.

We can't let those guys see that...

McMillan, Sakuragi Hanamichi, Lin Dong and others were immersed in the joy of winning, and they really didn't notice it. No one in the OK group or the Lakers players noticed it, and even the angry and disappointed fans in the stadium were not aware of it. No one noticed this.

But Phil Jackson never took his eyes away from Payton on the sidelines.

The movement of supporting the legs, trying hard to hide the natural stiffness when walking but still not showing.

A slight smile hung on the corner of the Zen master's mouth.

There is indeed no precedent in NBA history for a 0:3 overturn, but there is always a first time for everything...

………………

——The SuperSonics defeated the Lakers again, won G3, and took a 3-0 lead in the series!

——The super dark horse in the Western Conference, the team that won three consecutive championships suffered three consecutive losses!

——god combination, the god combination from the Olympus Mountains, beat the Lakers outside!

——With rocket-like speed, the SuperSonics only took less than two rounds of the series, and their championship rate has increased from 17% to 35%, becoming the super favorite after the Wizards!

——You can never trust two people who are playing basketball with the art of war. Even if they sneeze on the court, they are hiding a conspiracy!

——The Sonics show their invincibility, predicting 4:0, or 4:1, if the Sonics want to return to their home court to sell tickets for another game.

——G4, is it the madness of the SuperSonics or the redemption of the Lakers? See you at Staples Center on May 4th!

The name of the god group has also been shouted out.

Gary Payton's English name starts with Gary, and Lin Dong, who is so stubborn that he does not take an English name, has a dong in his pinyin name. Taking one letter of each to form the combination god.

As for the o in the middle... who cares?

What people care about is just what god means: God!

There are overwhelming reports praising the Sonics and God's combination, which has become a hot search on the Internet. The entire league, all football commentators, and fans are unanimously optimistic about the Sonics. This can be seen from the rapidly rising odds of winning the championship. come out.

The SuperSonics' morale was also boosted. After all, there has never been a precedent in NBA history of being overturned 0:3 in the playoffs. It feels like the Lakers are already a thing of the past for them.

Everyone began to excitedly discuss their opponents in the next round of the Western Conference Finals.

Judging from the current situation, the game between the Spurs and the Mavericks is far from as clear and transparent as the 3:0 between the SuperSonics and the Lakers.

In the first two games played by the Spurs at home, the two sides tied 1:1. In the third game that started yesterday, the Dallas Mavericks seized the home court advantage and fought the Spurs until the second overtime, until the last minute. Relying on Duncan's strong one-on-three kill at the basket, he managed to win this battle with great difficulty.

1:2, the Spurs are temporarily leading, but everyone can see the tenacity and strength of this Mavericks, and the next one is the Mavericks’ home court. According to current predictions, the two teams are likely to play in the third round. Seven games to go.

This is undoubtedly good news for the Sonics. As long as they can defeat the Lakers 4:0, they can get much more rest time than the Spurs and Mavericks, and then wait for work, win the Western Conference championship and rush into the finals. Hit the second championship in Sonics history!

But just when most of the SuperSonics players and even McMillan and Bob began to excitedly fantasize about this scene, a sudden piece of bad news left everyone confused.

That was a fact revealed by Mito Yohei after he asked Lin Dong out alone on the night of May 2.

"Peyton won't let me talk, but I think it's necessary to tell you first." Mito Yohei's expression was solemn, which gave Lin Dong a bad feeling.

"That guy is going to close up and go to G4."

Sealed needles are not uncommon for athletes. They are a therapy that is used to locally relieve the pain of athletes. It has analgesic and paralytic effects. If used appropriately, it can also restore the injured part of the athlete.

However, there are many hidden dangers in playing a closed game in a high-intensity game.

I thought there was nothing wrong with Payton's knee before, but if it has reached the point where he needs to get a sealant injection, then it seems that all the ease he had on the court was all faked by that guy.

However, Lin Dong can also understand Payton's thoughts. He is too important to the team.

Now Sakuragi in the inside can't stand up to O'Neal at all. If Lin Dong alone supports the team, there is no possibility of winning this Lakers.

Even though the SuperSonics are currently leading 0:3, if Payton is given up, the Lakers will still be able to catch up with the big score.

No one wants to lose...

Lin Dong frowned: "Did the water in the knee rupture? Or is it inflamed? If it is closed..."

"I know what you are thinking, give up this idea." Mito Yohei said in a deep voice: "His knee fluid had already penetrated in the first round of the series, and it was already inflamed when he played the first game against the Lakers... …In G2 and G3, he secretly sealed it without telling the team. I don’t know where he found his private doctor. I only found out because he gave him acupuncture!”

Lin Dong was stunned and suddenly stunned.

No wonder Payton's condition has gotten better and better since the start of this series. He thought he was fully healthy, but he didn't expect...

"His condition is very serious now. If he stops immediately, I think I can still bring him back and rest for at least half a month. With luck, I can even make him catch up with the finals! But if the next If the court is closed, and if we continue to fight hard... I'm afraid that he won't even be able to survive the Western Conference Finals. By then, he will not be unable to play temporarily, but may cause irreparable damage to his entire knee! "

It has been closed twice in succession. Will it be closed again?

Lin Dong gasped when he heard this. This old guy really didn't even give up his legs in order to win the championship!

Playoff results? Win or lose the series?

That is important, but no matter how important it is, how can it be better than health?

What's more, Mito Yohei still has the possibility of 'rescuing' Payton before the finals.

As for the series in between...

"This guy..." Lin Dong sighed helplessly. No matter what, he wanted to save the old guy who was desperate for his life first. "I'll find McMillan and Bob right now and push that guy to the bed!"
