The Lakers fell in the first round!

Although there is no such thing as a 5-4 comeback in history, it is obviously difficult for Lakers fans to accept this result.

However, the very real problem facing the Lakers management is that this set of core and rotation has not been touched for too long, and has reached the point where it cannot be established without breaking it.

This summer will be a very turbulent summer for the Lakers.

And it wasn't just the Lakers who were upset.

Just before the Lakers, the Spurs also lost to the Grizzlies 2-4!

They were hacked!

In addition to the Mavericks' 4-1 victory over the Trail Blazers, the Western Conference now has two teams in the top half!

The world is really in chaos!

"See you in Xijue!"

Lin Ying received another text message from Durant.

The Spurs were also upset, which means that the Thunder's opponent in the Western Conference semifinals will be the Grizzlies.

The Thunder really have a great chance of making it to the Western Conference Finals this year!

One day later.

Game 7 between Suns and Rockets.

Because all the other first rounds in the Eastern and Western Conferences ended on this day, and the second round had not yet started, this became the only game of the day.

In other words, this game was more ups and downs than expected.

At the beginning of the game, Yao Ming started with full firepower and a hot touch, and even hit a three-pointer from the outside.

With his own 7 points, the Rockets took a 12-2 lead at the start.

The Suns were beaten a little confused.

Yao Ming's block on Stoudemire made the Toyota Center resound with the long-lost Yao song.

"Yao Ming~Yao Ming is life-threatening~Yao Ming~is life-threatening~"

The sound that sounded like a war hymn gave the Rockets fans at the scene goosebumps, and also made the Rockets players rush one after another.

After halftime, the Rockets led the Suns by 14 points, 60-46!

Yao Ming scored 18 points and 8 rebounds in the first half, showing an MVP-level performance.

Victory is almost within sight.

At halftime, Gentry tried to use words to boost the team's morale in the locker room, but it didn't have a very good effect.

The momentum played by the Rockets tonight is familiar, yes, just like them last year.

After Gentry left, Lin Ying stood up and said something.

He didn't try to boost morale or anything, but talked about some opportunities that the Suns might have.

And this opportunity belongs to Yao Ming.

Yao Ming was uncharacteristically crazy in the first half, and his strategy should be to lead the Rockets to defeat the Suns in three quarters.

As long as the lead can reach 20 points, the Suns basically have no chance of winning in the last quarter.

But Yao Ming is also taking a gamble by doing this, because his physical fitness cannot bear to play like this for the entire game.

Lin Ying didn't say much, but he could feel that the Suns team's morale was obviously improving.

As the defending champions, there is actually no problem with their mental quality, they just need to know what to do.

And what Lin Ying said was what they wanted to hear.

Returning to the second half, the two sides fell into a stalemate at the beginning.

A detail issue in the stalemate quickly verified what Lin Ying said: the Rockets' offensive focus shifted from Yao Ming to others!

The discovery stunned the Suns.

Although Artest's outstanding performance in G6 is eye-catching, in essence, the Rockets are relying on Yao Ming to carry the burden forward in this series.

You must know that so far in the series, Yao Ming has averaged 25.2 points, 12.4 rebounds, 4.5 assists and 2.3 blocks per game. He is basically a combination of offense and defense.

If others had performed well, the Rockets would have beaten the Suns long ago.

So after gradually increasing the defensive quality and offensive rhythm, the situation of the game began to tilt towards the Suns.

15-point difference, 10-point difference, 5-point difference...

The Suns were closing in on the point difference bit by bit at a speed visible to the naked eye.

By the end of the third quarter, they finally narrowed the point difference to less than 5 points!

Resilience, the label that was put on the Suns last season, is still there!

In the last quarter, Yao Ming stepped forward again after taking a rest.

However, the Suns' overall condition has been improved, and the Rockets have been unable to open up the score.

At the final decisive moment, Lin Ying stepped forward and took over the game.

Grover's special training not only helped build perfect muscle groups, allowing him to jump higher and run faster, but also allowed him to break through new bottlenecks in physical fitness.

At this time, he experienced a "pseudo white-hot space", or a "pseudo zone".

The reason for adding a pseudo word is because after a whole night or even an entire series of games for others, my physical energy has been exhausted.

But he still has some energy left, so the effect is that everyone else's movements seem to be a beat slower than his.

Lin Ying's changes of direction can easily throw off the defense, and his sudden layups always make people feel like others can't keep up with his rhythm.

"A true MVP will step up and take over the game at the last moment!"

Commentator Barkley has started to output like crazy.

Yao Ming on the Rockets didn't give up, he fought hard until he got leg cramps.

A 2.26-meter tall man came off the field in an emergency. After being treated by the team doctor for only one round, he gritted his teeth and came back on the field.

For Houston, Yao Ming gave everything he could.

This spirit moved the fans at the scene again, and Yao Zhi's song resounded through the Toyota Center again.

The Rockets counterattacked wildly, and Carter hit a three-pointer from outside 6 seconds before the end, sending the Toyota Center into a boil.

After returning from the final timeout, Lin Ying did not go to the sideline to serve the ball this time, but instead received the ball from the three-point line and directly met Yao Ming's shot!

Lin Ying's eyes were as firm as iron before taking action.

After taking action, he looked at Yao Ming and something strange flashed in his eyes.

If the prerequisite for Yao Ming to leave Houston and leave Alexander, the blood-sucking boss, is that the Rockets lose, then he will do it himself!

"Whoa!"

The voice of despair rang in the ears of Rockets fans.

There is no regretful duel, there is only one winner.
Chapter completed!
