Bishop: since 1998

Chapter 142 Falling Blossoms and Flowing Water!

"Then Jaylen, did you kick Kobe?"

"Ok!"

Hearing Li Mu's question, Bao Wen froze, and immediately nodded and grinned.

But secretly thought in his heart, the head coach actually saw it.

There is something about this man.

In fact, he didn't know that Li Mu relied on the memory of his previous life to link them together and deduced the conclusion.

Without in-depth communication, if it is captured by the camera, it will not make sense.

First-degree flagrant foul, two free throws and one throw.

Relying on free throws and ball rights, as well as anger for teammates, the second quarter started, and the Pacers' offense overshadowed the Lakers in the limelight for a while.

However, this performance is short-lived and cannot last.

The advantage of the Lakers lineup crushing strength gradually emerged.

The inside line is still one-sided.

On the outside, Miller was guarded by Kobe. Without Miller, Crohill could only shoot, without Jaylen Rose's breakthrough, passing and shooting.

Both inside and outside the Pacers team, both offensive and defensive ends were crushed, and the wind of the game quickly turned to the Lakers.

After the first half of the game, the Lakers took an 11-point lead.

It seems that the gap is not big, but everyone can see that the Pacers and Lakers are not in the same dimension at all in terms of strength.

In Li Mu's previous life, if it wasn't for Kobe Bryant's 9th minute injury, and the Pacers' Jaylen Rose and Miller breaking out on the perimeter, the Lakers wouldn't have had to play so hard.

Now the Pacers can't steal chickens and lose money, losing Jaylen Rose, the number one scorer, and the Pacers' only mobile player.

Kobe is still with the Lakers.

The gap in strength between the Pacers and the Lakers is even bigger.

The second half of the game started.

The Pacers bet on three-point shots on offense and stuck to the penalty area on defense.

Tactics are right, but execution is not enough.

The efficiency of three-point shooting is not high. Miller's state is getting better, but he is not in an explosive state. With Kobe defending, it is difficult for him to explode.

Sticking to the penalty area and ignoring Kobe's off-the-ball tactics is still unstoppable.

After all, the Lakers still have a rebounding advantage, even if they miss a shot, they can make two or three offenses.

In other words, as long as you hit the iron many times, who says you can't kill someone?

A three-point shot without a rebound is fatal. The Pacers missed the shot, and the Lakers can still play a quick counterattack.

The Pacers have no speed and can only watch.

After the first three quarters of the game, the Lakers' offensive firepower was fully fired, opening the point difference to 25 points.

Game four.

The Lakers' rotation is starting to get a chance to shine.

Ginobili's serpentine breakthrough turned the Pacers' penalty area into a sieve.

Lewis and Horry's three-pointers rained three-pointers from the outside.

Fisher made breakthroughs, made mid-range shots, and made three-pointers.

The Pacers were beaten to pieces, without the slightest temper.

hum~
With the sound of the buzzer, the game time is over.

比分124比86，湖人队38分狂胜步行者队，将大比分扩大到2比0。

O'Neal scored 41 points, 13 rebounds, 4 assists and 2 blocks. In this state, he almost booked the finals MVP individual award in advance.

After all, even if he doesn't play the next two games, O'Neal averaged 23 points per game.

Kobe continued to work hard on defense, scoring only 21 points, 8 assists and 7 rebounds. His performance was indeed versatile and crucial, but compared with O'Neal, there was a gap.

Billups made an amazing three-pointer in this game, scoring 23 points and 9 assists. In the two games, he performed very well. Unfortunately, this team is not like the Pistons. It can only defend. 20+ is enough. Surprise the whole team's team.

In the current Lakers team, for star players, 20+ is just a routine basic operation.

This data, ranked in front of O'Neill, is not enough to look at.

Miller made 20 of 8 shots, 11 of 8 free throws, and scored 26 points. Unfortunately, Schmitz's state declined inside. Davis had 11 points and 10 rebounds. It seems that the double-double is true. However, compared with O'Neal's double-double, There is still a gap of a billion points.

……

In the post-game press conference, Larry Bird complained to reporters, claiming, "It's not bright for the Lakers to win.

If Jaylen Rose is on the court, the Pacers are not without a chance.

And, I'm pretty sure Bruce Bowen did it on purpose. "

Turning his head, the reporter asked Li Mu about the fact that Jaylen Rose was injured and the Pacers lost.

Li Mu said calmly, "This is just a part of the game.

I don't care whether the Pacers have Jaylen Rose or not, because they are not as strong as the Lakers.

Larry said it was on purpose?
But I don't think it's necessary for Bowen to do this. He has no motive for committing the crime.

Don't ask, the whole world knows that the Lakers will win, but the Pacers can't. "

June 6, Conseco Arena.

At this point, in 2000, the Pacers' home court wasn't called the Bankers Life Arena.

It will not be renamed until 2002.

G3 moved to the home court of the Pacers.

The Lakers entered the court and were booed by the fans in the arena.

Li Mu was very indifferent, he was used to this kind of scene, and with a big wave of his hand, he still formed the blacksmith team.

Billups, Kobe, Bowen, Big Ben, O'Neal.

At the start of the game, the blacksmith team did not disappoint Li Mu, they really hit the iron.

In addition, the Pacers' home court advantage is too obvious, and the whistle is obviously biased.

After the first quarter, the Lakers fell behind by 3 points.

In the second quarter of the game, the Pacers miraculously bit the game and brought the 3-point gap to the locker room.

However, when the second half started, the Pacers finally, finally couldn't stand it.

39 to 20! !
In the third quarter, the Lakers beat the Pacers, twisted the point difference, and took a 15-point lead.

In the fourth quarter, the Pacers were very tenacious, and then continued to be beaten by the Lakers.

No way, Jaylen Rose was absent due to injury, Miller was stared to death by Kobe, the Pacers couldn't make waves on the outside, and they were blown inside.

With a score of 114 to 84, the Lakers beat the Pacers by 30 points, a big score of 3 to 0, and the Lakers won the finals match point.

O'Neal's performance was a bit hip, and he only scored 33 points, 12 rebounds and 6 assists.

Hip pulling is a comparison with oneself, and O'Neill is the only existence.

Kobe Bryant still performed steadily with 23 points, 9 rebounds and 7 assists.

Billups continued to show his determination to grab the MVP with O'Neal, scoring 25 points, 6 assists and 4 rebounds.

Miller scored 29 points. Unfortunately, the support of his teammates is limited, and the loss cannot be changed.

……

June 6, Conseco Arena.

The G4 coordinates are still the home of the Pacers.

The Pacers fight for honor and don't want to be shaved by the Lakers.

Jaylen Rose returns early.

The league doesn't want the finals to end hastily.

The Lakers seem to have no effect on winning or losing, and they can return to the home court and charge an extra game ticket, why not?
So, the game begins.

The Pacers got a ton of free throws.

The Lakers can't seal the penalty area, so they come out and fight for offense.

Then, the Pacers started, chopping Sharks, chopping Ben, chopping Bo...

Finally, finally paid the price of 3 graduations. When the Lakers hit the iron with free throws and hit the doubtful life, the Pacers had the last laugh.

比分103比99，步行者队4分险胜湖人队，将比分扳成了1比3！！
