Chapter 490 Harder Than the Finals

Fans on both sides have witnessed the efforts of both teams in this round of the series.

In fact, the Warriors not only worked hard in this game, but also worked very hard throughout the season.

Including breaking the team history record and getting the first record in the league.

Throughout the season, the Warriors have had some success.

The fans are very satisfied with the team.

Including playing the Lakers.

After all, the Lakers have the Big Three. The Warriors' ability to fight against the Big Three seems to have broken many people's pre-match guesses.

The two teams fought fiercely to the seventh game, and it will also come to an end.

No matter what the result is, the attitude of the two teams is worthy of recognition.

The main players of both sides did not say that they played particularly badly, basically all the strengths they should have were fully displayed.

The coaches of both sides have seen each other's tricks, the players have not changed, and the lineup and tactics in the middle have been changed N times.

Players can gain a high status in this league with one trick, but the team and the coach can't. A mature NBA team must have a variety of tactical systems.

It's just that sometimes, some systems play so well that they are named by the outside world.

……

In the second half, players from both teams reappeared.

Put your heart and soul into the game.

The Lakers took the lead in attacking in the second half. O'Neal was very active in the interior, and Da Ben's curved arm was on his back.

The 2-meter big man wants the ball with a wingspan of more than 16 meters.

Daben found that the position was too dangerous, so he chose to take a step forward and prepare to defend around the front.

O'Neal's flexibility is too strong, and Big Ben dare not go too far.

But at the moment when the center of gravity shifted, O'Neill keenly seized the opportunity, suddenly turned around with a bully, and ran back to the basket.

When O'Neal just turned around, Kobe on the outside passed the ball.

The basketball passed over Qin Fei's head, and taller Ben's head.

Across the entire half court, flew near the basket.

O'Neill raised one hand, grabbed the flying basketball, and pushed it into the basket with a "bang".

The connection of the OK combination!
The fans at the scene were a little surprised.

To be honest, although after this round of the series, O'Neal also averaged 30+15 per game, but there are not many direct connections with Kobe.

Most of the time, it is still O'Neal himself who scores in the paint.

Or it could just be a tip-in when he grabs an offensive rebound.

This is actually a large part of the score.

Although the inside line composed of Big Ben and Jr. is good enough to protect the frame, O'Neal still has an average of nearly five offensive rebounds in a game, and many rebounds have been converted into direct points.

In terms of the second offense, the Lakers are far ahead of the Warriors.

The only area where the Lakers trailed the Warriors by a lot was in transition.

Of course, this is not their specialty.

The Lakers succeeded in their first offense in the second half, and the score was close.

Then the Warriors attacked, and Qin Fei asked for the ball in the low post.

Kobe is on his back.

Just like Da Ben was standing against Qin Fei just now.

The two have played against each other too many times, but Kobe still can't figure out Qin Fei's offensive changes after holding the ball behind his back. It is difficult to guess in advance, and sometimes the choices he makes may not be accurate.

When Qin Fei caught the ball this time, he simply turned around and shot a jumper.

Those who didn't even dribble and shot directly belonged to surprise.

Kobe blocked Qin Fei's eyes, causing some disturbance.

Missed, missed.

Qin Fei can't score every jump shot.

Kobe's goal is to reduce Qin Fei's hit rate as much as possible.

After Qin Fei's shooting rate is low, he will choose some other offensive methods, such as connecting teams, such as attacking the basket more.

Nowadays, the biggest threat to Qin Fei is his finishing ability.

Although other aspects are also strong, it is acceptable to the Lakers. Once the number of terminations erupts, it will be a disaster.

Therefore, changing Qin Feifang's offensive method can be regarded as a success.

Qin Fei's overall feeling tonight was mediocre. He failed to score in the offense at the beginning of the third quarter, and the Lakers took the opportunity to overtake the score.

O'Neal played bravely in the third quarter and scored 14 points in a single quarter.

At the end of the three quarters, the Lakers led 75 to 71 by 4 points.

Form is a bit of a disadvantage for the Warriors.

Not because of the 4 points behind, but because it has been difficult to form an effective impact.

And Qin Fei has already played 3 full quarters at the moment.

In the fourth quarter of the game, I don't know how much impact Qin Fei can have.

Substitution is definitely not possible. Replacing Qin Fei now is no different from surrendering directly.

So Carlisle can only let Qin Fei sit on the bench and rest for 2 more minutes.

The camera also captured Qin Fei, the energy contained in the young man's body is amazing.

Tonight he has scored another 25 points, there is no doubt that it will be another night of more than 30 points.

In the broadcasted TV screen, some wonderful pictures of the two teams this season were played back.

Including interspersed with highlights from previous playoff games.

Basketball commentators commented that both teams are championship-level teams.

"The luxury of the Lakers and the toughness of the Warriors, the two teams have their own characteristics, and their real strength is almost the same. The current situation is a recognition of the players on both sides and proves that their efforts have not been wasted."

"Whoever makes it to the finals, the other team won't be a failure, because they contributed such a wonderful series, they deserve to be the title of the best team in the league."

"It can even be said that they are the best team, there is no doubt about it."

There are endless praises for the Warriors and Lakers.

With the slightly regrettable tiebreaker between the Bucks and the 76ers, this game is even more exciting.

Because the two teams are still playing very anxious and tense, they have contributed a particularly beautiful and expected game scene.

No one knows who will make it to the end.

Including the fans of both sides, in fact, they have no idea.

The Lakers led by four points into the fourth quarter, and then became more vigilant than the Warriors. The main players including Kobe, O'Neal, and Malone stayed on the court and did not choose to rest.

Everyone is red-eyed.

In the first wave of offense in the fourth quarter, Qin Fei charged inside with the basketball in his arms.

Draws a Malone foul and goes to the free throw line.

Qin Fei also had a tough hand. He hit the first free throw but missed the second free throw.

Qin Fei made more than [-]% of his free throws. If it weren't for the last moment, no one would fight for his second free throw.

Now the players of the two teams have maintained their focus and got stuck at the basket for the first time.

The basketball bounced to Karl Malone's side, and Malone leaped to grab the backboard, then immediately raised his elbows.

With a wave of the iron elbow, he just hit the tough guy of the warrior.

Fortunately, the big pen is iron, and it is not a big problem to be installed.

But the anger in his heart was ignited by him, and he got up angrily, like a beast that was about to tear him apart, showing a dangerous expression.

Not to be outdone, Ma Long bumped into each other, and it wasn't the first time he did this.

The two steel-muscled men sparred each other head-on.

The referee was a skinny old man who ran into the center of the vortex in a panic, with a big head.

"It's okay, it's normal."

The people on both sides were pulled apart, but the host who relayed the TV was very calm.

"Actually, in the entire series, both sides are relatively restrained. Although there are many confrontations inside, there are very few such direct conflicts. And even if there is a conflict now, it is only a stage of talking, and there is no physical contact. It is not a big problem."

The host didn't mention another layer of meaning. Even in such a world-class competition, the referee will consider it accordingly and will not make any extraordinarily heavy sentences.

So as expected, they were also technical fouls with [-] boards each, and even the free throws were offset.

The Lakers throw the ball to the sideline.

In the frontcourt, players from both sides continued to fight hand-to-hand, fighting desperately for every ball.

Kobe received his fourth personal foul, Qin Fei threw himself on the floor and rolled out of the baseline, O'Neal's 300-pound body was knocked down by Big Ben, Karl Malone suffered a deadly scissor kick from O'Neal Jr., and fell to the ground in pain
The young man's actions were not big or small, and Ma Long was furious, but considering that he had already suffered a technical foul, he just forbeared and didn't explode. He had already secretly remembered this young power forward who seemed honest and honest, but actually made a lot of small moves.

In the last 2 minutes of the game, the Lakers held a 3-point lead.

At the most critical moment, O'Neal was double-teamed and passed to Robert Horry, who was ambushing from the outside. Horry hit a key three-pointer, extinguishing the enthusiasm of the entire Warriors at home.

Horry's three-point shooting percentage in the playoffs was very low, just over [-]%, but at the last moment, he actually hit a deadly three-pointer.

Many fans who support the Warriors feel cool.

The Warriors called a timeout.

The camera freezes on Qin Fei, who raises his head with firm eyes.

He never gave up on the Lakers players. After returning from the timeout, he stepped up his defense against Qin Fei. When Qin Fei took the ball two steps outside the three-point line, someone came to double-team him.

Qin Fei: .
"Just to prevent other people from making three-pointers, I would rather let others open to shoot than let Qin Feiqiang shoot."

Qin Fei chose to pass the ball first and gave it to Billups.

Billups is also the focus of man-marking, and the ball was transferred to veteran Blaylock.

Blaylock made a long three-pointer and missed it under mild interference.

The Warriors haven't grabbed the rebound yet.

The Lakers missed the offense and the Warriors attacked again.

After Qin Fei got the ball, he didn't pass the ball again, and directly dribbled it to the frontcourt, and made a three-pointer in front of Kobe, and the three-pointer hit the net!

Qin Fei's 38th point!
The Warriors are only 92 points behind 95 to 3, and there is hope of recovering the score.

Phil Jackson was about to suffer a heart attack from Qin Fei's strong pitch, so he quickly handed in a timeout and rearranged.

The two sides entered the decisive battle at the last moment.

All the fans stood up to watch the game and shouted "Beat LA!" with all their strength.

In such a tense moment, the Lakers finally handed over the ball to Kobe.

Kobe flipped the basketball back and forth and counted down the seconds in front of Qin Fei. When there were only 10 seconds left, Karl Malone came out to pick and roll.

"You also want this pick and roll?"

Qin Fei didn't have time to complain, Kobe had already gone through a complete pick-and-roll attack, O'Neill didn't dare to double-team Kobe in advance, Kobe had half a body advantage, he knew in his heart that Qin Fei would rush over soon, so he chose to make an early shot.

An emergency stop jump shot, when Qin Fei shot, his big hand was already on the basketball.

"too fast"

Qin Fei's defense is not as aggressive as Kobe's, but Qin Fei's reaction speed is always top-notch, and he can complete the defense in an instant.

Bryant's shooting was seriously interfered with.

Throwing with muscle memory and undeniably powerful confidence.

The basketball hit the iron successfully and bounced high.

There were at least six strong men fighting for the bounced basketball, both inside and outside.

If you don't fight for the rebound at the last moment, what hope is there?
It still depends on Big Ben and O'Neill, who took off one after the other.

O'Neill's palm was not clean, and he attached himself to Daben's back and tried his best secretly. He stretched out his other arm and reached for the basketball at the same time as Daben.

In the end, O'Neal touched the basketball with a slight lead.

With a slight tap of his finger, the basketball bounced back.

Into the basket!
Tip-up, last-minute score!

With this goal scored, the Lakers regained their 5-point lead, the situation of the game took a turn for the worse, and the Warriors fell into a dead end.

Qin Fei was also very helpless, with his hands on his hips, he shook his head slightly.

He has already defended Kobe with all his strength, so naturally he has no way to double up and then defend the inside.

There is no doubt about Daben's rebounding ability, but the game is like this, who can guarantee that he can complete the tasks assigned by the coach every time?

Who would have thought that a distance of just a few centimeters would make a huge difference?

Da Ben's face was very ugly.

At this time, the Warriors called the last timeout.

None of the fans left the field, but there was always a lot of crying.

More people feel slightly regretful, but remembering that they won the championship last year, they are not too sad. Instead, they start to cheer for the home team, with constant applause.

The timeout ended, and as Qin Fei missed his last strong three-pointer, the red lights were on.

勇士G7战92比97输给了湖人，结束了2000-01赛季的历程。

At the end of the game, the Lakers players wept with joy.

It was not easy, and finally reached the finals.

They celebrated wildly around O'Neal, like winning a championship.

Kobe covered his face and sat alone on the floor in front of the statistics table, suppressing the throbbing in his heart.

The season is over.
The Warriors team was relieved.

It is not easy to play for a season under the aura of the defending champion, especially in the middle of the season and suffered some injuries, and there are still players who are still on the injury list.

Qin Fei was a little sad, not because he didn't make it to the finals, but because he failed to help some veterans of the team realize their dreams.

He walked up to Barkley and was the first to hug the Jazz.

"I'm sorry, I thought I could"

Qin Fei was very sincere, but Barkley interrupted him before he finished speaking.

There was no disappointment on his face, and there was even some special free and easy.

"Don't ever say that, my brother, you've done enough."

Barkley said: "This is life, and life is also part of the game. The meaning of life is not in how many places you have been to and what achievements you have accomplished, but in that you never know where you will go next second and what achievements you will accomplish."

"The pursuit of the championship is the most basic requirement of a professional player. However, without a championship, it is also a player's life. I have always been very proud of myself. This is enough for my efforts on the road to the pursuit of the championship."

He seemed to be speaking to Qin Fei, but also to himself.

After hearing this, Qin Fei was particularly touched.

Qin Fei also hugged Dell Curry, Chris Mullin and other veterans one by one.

To his surprise, the veterans were very free and easy, and they never said that they felt annoyed or regretful because of the loss of the championship. Perhaps, as Barkley said, this is also life. They did not come here just to pursue the championship. They also wanted to see more scenery in the process of pursuit.

Qin Fei finally hugged his teammate Da Ben.

Big Ben has gone through some difficult stages. This season, O'Neal came prepared and played even more fiercely than last season. He suffered a lot in the matchup with the Sharks.

"Next season, I must beat him."

Big Ben said viciously, he did not lose confidence at all because of the defeat.

Qin Fei felt relieved.
On the court, the Warriors players prepare to exit.

Qin Fei and others left the stage for the Lakers who were preparing to present the Western Conference Championship Award.

Kobe, O'Neal, Malone and others hugged Qin Fei one by one.

Qin Fei briefly blessed them, and then left the court.

Before the awards, the reporter interviewed Kobe.

Kobe said directly: "It's so fucking difficult. Although this metaphor is inappropriate, I feel that our victory over the Warriors may be more difficult than winning the championship. They have always been our biggest opponent."

O'Neill also said that it was too difficult to break out of the West.

"I'm so tired I want to fall asleep, but I know we can't do this, the season is not over, we have to bring the championship trophy back to Los Angeles."

Ma Long specifically commented on Qin Fei.

"Qin Fei is a terrible opponent. I have never seen such a strong opponent in my career. What the hell is he only 23 years old? To be honest, if I just dragged into overtime, I don't have any confidence that I can beat him. His eyes told me just now that he will explode."

The reporter was very puzzled by Ma Long's speech, and asked: "Is Qin Fei better than Michael Jordan?"

Malone did not respond positively, but only said: "When Michael Jordan was 23 years old, he hadn't won two championships, and he not only won the championship twice, but also played in the Western Conference Finals four times."

The crowd was in an uproar after hearing his speech.

People saw that although the Warriors lost the game, Qin Fei's influence became stronger, and he seemed to convince more people. Everyone admitted that he possessed terrifying personal abilities.

　At the end of the season, a tie-breaker was arranged to lose. Although it may be a little unsatisfactory, but the road to super gods should also have ups and downs, just treat it as a small downturn. The story rhythm of the next season will be faster. At the same time, there will be some new teammates joining, and there will be some small changes in the league structure...
