187: Past events in the north (seeking the moon)(1/3)
Li Ang stood up from the sofa and prepared to clean up the room.
When he packed up a corner, Li Ang discovered some old newspapers he had left behind.
Li Ang paused for a moment, then carried the newspaper to the table, and took out the lowest copy.
The edge of the newspaper was already a little yellow, but looking at the photo in the middle of the newspaper, Li Ang still smiled.
In the photo, Li Ang was carried on his shoulders by his teammates, while he was holding the Eastern Conference champion's trophy.
On the other side was Carter, who was also carried up. He hugged Li Ang's shoulder and smiled brightly with a scissor hand.
This photo is also placed on Li Ang’s desk in his bedroom.
That night, although everyone did not drink, they splattered water in the locker room to celebrate.
For this young team, an Eastern Conference championship trophy is enough to become their indelible memory.
Li Ang gently put down the newspaper and took out the next one, and then the smile on his face gradually disappeared.
The huge title, bold and black, wrote: The Eastern Conference champion who won the victory!
The picture is a photo of aI lying on the ground vomiting blood.
This is a news written by a Philadelphia newspaper that has influenced Li Ang into a butcher who deliberately hurts people.
Although aI already said in an interview that the Raptors won openly, I believe that Li Ang did not do it intentionally.
But people are only willing to believe what they believe.
In addition, Li Ang was originally a criminal record and was the first legendary figure to be suspended for fighting in the first game.
Therefore, everyone thinks that Li Ang, who has "has a lot of bad records", can definitely do something like deliberately hitting aI.
What's more, Philadelphia fans were angry after losing the game.
They must make some excuses for the team's defeat, which is the most common thing that losers do.
In this era when online media was not yet developed, such news would easily change as it spreads.
So Li Ang hit aI, causing aI to be injured and causing 76ers to lose the game, which almost became a consensus among many fans.
At the same time, there is another small news under this newspaper: several reporters believe that the Lakers will sweep the Raptors 4-0 and win the championship with a complete playoff victory.
Li Ang shook his head and remembered the hideous years that time.
Speaking of which, there were many people who thought that the Lakers could win the Cup 4-0 in the Finals.
Except for Chinese media and Toronto media, almost no one thinks that the Raptors can win even a game from the Lakers.
There is no way, the Lakers in 2001 were indeed too strong. Even in the entire nBa history, the Lakers in 2001 were ranked first.
Li Ang put down the newspaper again and pulled out the next one.
"puff!"
The moment the newspaper was taken out, Li Ang couldn't help laughing again.
"The Lakers' undefeated golden body was broken by the Raptors, Leon Carter scored 62 points together, the Raptors survived and refused to sweep!"
The title is nothing funny, the funny one is the accompanying picture.
Because the picture is a picture of Li Ang hitting Shaq's head with a ball in the air.
Don't get me wrong, Li Ang did not have a conflict with Shaq at that time.
Shaq is not stupid. He is okay with playing basketball with Li Ang, but he knows that fighting with Li Ang is a dead end.
Li Ang and Shaq also have no personal grudges. Who would be unable to get along with this fat black guy?
This picture of the head smash actually came from a dunk.
At that time, in the fourth game of the series, the powerful Lakers had already led 3-0.
The Lakers are different from those in the Eastern Conference before. The previous opponents have one characteristic, the offensive core is the outside.
The Magic's offensive core is McGrady, the Bucks' offensive core is Junzi Lei, and the 76ers' offensive core has and only aI.
But in addition to Kobe, the Lakers have a core offensive Shaq in the inside!
When playing against the Eastern Conference team, the Raptors' routine is Li Ang to lock the opponent's arrow character, and Carter attacks with all his heart.
But this move won't work when fighting the Lakers.
O'Neal's existence has magnified the disadvantage of insufficient thickness of the Raptors' inside line countless times.
This season, even Duncan + Admiral cannot contain this shark, let alone the elderly Oakley and Willis.
Although Li Ang also joined O'Neal's defense, he also performed directly from the side to the ground.
But overall, O'Neal is still unstoppable.
In this way, the Los Angeles won consecutive victories. Although it was not easy to win, it still led 3-0 and easily got the match point.
After the Lakers took a 3-0 lead, almost everyone believed that the Lakers would win the championship with a complete playoff victory.
Unfortunately, in Toronto, the fourth game of the series, Li Ang and Carter broke the Los Angeles dream.
Carter felt a lot of touch in the fourth game, and shot through the Lakers' defense from outside the three-point line.
Li Ang went to the fire and added fuel to the fire.
At the last moment of the third quarter, Li Ang even prepared to block Shaq on the front.
As a result, a ridiculous scene happened.
Although Shaq has a good temper, he is unwilling to let Li Ang ride twice in a row.
Seeing Li Ang rushing in, Shaq took a breath and put away his big belly, jumped up desperately, and took the initiative to fight.
Under Shaq's terrifying power, even if he holds a dunk badge, it is indeed difficult for Li Ang to dig the ball through Shaq.
But at this time, Li Ang's movements could no longer stop.
In this way, Li Ang made a big hit and directly hit Shaq's head.
According to the coach Zhang who watched the football on the spot, "At that time, O'Neal's head seemed to be swung and smoked."
The big shark was beaten into a fat-headed fish.
He is worthy of being the most talented one among the star centers.
Barkley was so excited when he saw this scene that he would definitely treasure this shot and use this ball every now and then to mock Shaq.
Thinking of this scene now, Li Ang still couldn't help but want to laugh.
Although there were some surprises, Li Ang and Carter still won a home game in that game, which made Ko so angry that he cursed after the game.
It's almost one game away, and the feat of winning the playoffs is about to achieve the feat of winning the championship.
That night, countless Lakers' celebrities even arrived in Toronto to witness this miraculous moment.
As a result, Li Ang and Carter won the fourth battle with no face.
These are in a bunch of exquisite pictures, and they put two horror pictures to make their minds.
The proud Los Angeles fans called Carter and Li Ang a hooligan, and there were even conspiracy theories that Li Ang deliberately smashed Shaq.
Shaq was so dizzy that he insisted on the game, which made the Raptors take advantage of the loopholes.
The same thing is true, losers always like to make excuses.
This incident combined with the previous news that Li Ang "deliberately" hurts aI, which can be said to make Li Ang become more and more unfair.
The Los Angeles media are unyielding and propaganda wildly. And their power is much greater than that of the Philadelphia media.
Li Ang’s wave is notorious.
So much so that Li Ang has had a bad relationship with the Los Angeles media until now. To be precise, Li Ang has become one of the most hated players in Los Angeles.
And Li Ang also hates Los Angeles.
Although the Raptors finally lost in the finals and only won that game.
But that game alone is enough to drive Lakers and Lakers fans crazy.
There is no way, the strength gap between the two sides does exist. The combination of Li Ang and Carter may be able to walk sideways in the east.
But in the west, the time to ignite is still missing.
Li Ang put down the newspaper. In the 2001 playoffs, he had both laughter and tears.
Although before the finals began, we knew that the probability of defeating the oK combination was slim. However, when the team really lost, everyone was a little unwilling.
But overall, it's a lot of gains.
At that time, Li Ang originally thought that this time the finals were just the beginning.
He and Carter must have more gorgeous chapters waiting to be written.

All the twists and turns occurred in the summer of 2001.
The next newspaper, headlines are Yao Ming became the first Asian foreign aid in nBa's history and joined the Chicago Bulls!
