Four hundred and ninetieth eight chapters sweep out Denver
If the first game is to get the wrong script, then the second game will return to the original established track.
Iverson maintained a fiery offensive state. Wei Xia originally wanted to attack him, but suddenly, Kobe opened fire.
Kobe's condition is extremely eye-catching, which is a state that cannot be ignored.
Iverson ignored the height gap and made various shots after tilting backwards and raising the shooting arc. He made 4 of 8 shots in a single quarter and scored 10 points.
Wei Xia, who faced him, made 1 of 3 shots, and the outside felt bad. Due to Kobe's explosion, he didn't even have the chance to break through and pull back his shooting percentage.
Again, Anthony, who played well, made 3 of 6 shots and a half-year shooting percentage, which was good from the start.
But Kobe on the opposite side didn't play according to common sense!
Kobe made 8 of 10 in the first quarter, with only 3 free throws, scoring 20 points, 0 rebounds and 0 assists in a single quarter. This means that he does nothing except scoring.
The 80% shooting percentage is sensational, and it established the Lakers' advantage in the entire game.
At the beginning of the second quarter, Wei Xia played a role in Iverson's defense.
Iverson has difficulty receiving the ball, attacking and scoring. He made 4 shots in a single quarter and only scored 1 goal, and he no longer had the smooth feel he had just now.
Wei Xia did a good job of defense and assisted his teammates in attacking. He scored only 3 points in his personal score, but the Lakers made a 30-16 single-quarter offensive.
The performance in the first half was enough to secure the victory for the Lakers.
Nuggets, who wanted to fight for offense from the first game, made the wrong plan. The Lakers' offense may not be as good as running and hitting the Suns, but except for the running team that shot three-pointers like drinking water, no team in the league prefers attacking more than them.
In the second half, Anthony and Iverson made a 30-30 scoring against the Lakers.
But it's useless.
It would be useless if it just showed the same level as the Lakers, rather than being as big as the Lakers in the second quarter.
Michael Thompson said: "I can understand the urgency of Denver people, but they can't even let Kobe play the full three quarters with the focus of the first quarter."
Kobe scored 20 points in the first quarter, which seemed to be aiming to break Michael Jordan's single-game scoring record in the playoffs. As a result, he only scored 9 points in the last two quarters, but did not delay the Lakers' offense at all. Because of his active performance, the Nuggets have to send heavy troops to defend and guard him every time.
Kobe had no intention of playing a classic old actor with more than one and a dozen, but instead used his own attraction to defense to guide the Nuggets to double-team, and then open their teammates one by one.
Except Wei Xia.
Wei Xia is the only person who has not been able to get tempted by gravity.
He wanted to lock Iverson, and every child who grew up in Philadelphia regarded Iverson as an idol.
Wei Xia is not. When he was a child, he liked Kobe the most. Later, he regarded Kobe as a benchmark. As for Iverson, the other party occupies a special position in his heart. He is not Wei Xia's idol, nor is Wei Xia's goal pursued, and he does not even play a benchmark role for Wei Xia like Kobe.
Because Wei Xia has not liked tattoos, raps, dreadlocks, and strange costumes since she was a child, so she stayed away from the gangsters.
Before Wei Xia grew taller, Iverson's meaning to Wei Xia was to give him a reason to work hard.
Wei Xia, 15, is less than 170 cm tall. At that time, he had almost no professional basketball prospects, so he always comforted himself like this: If even Iverson could become the No. 1 pick in the NBA, if even he could pass the Flyer jumper in a game that was paid attention to across the United States, what reason would he not work hard?
Iverson's existence gave him a reason to work hard.
Later, there was a surprising change in him. He no longer needed to motivate himself through Iverson, but this also made him respect Iverson's achievements more.
LeBron James said it well, in terms of his figure, he is the best in history.
In the first match a few days ago, Wei Xia and Iverson exploded with each other. Today, he gave up on the offense and focused on defense.
As a result, he achieved phased success in the second quarter for four quarters. Looking at the overall situation, Iverson was not restricted by him.
In the whole game, Iverson's performance was higher than game 1. He made 10 of 21 shots, scoring 31 points and 6 assists alone. However, Anthony's performance was even worse than the previous game, with a shooting percentage of 40%, and he only scored 20 points. He was pressed to the ground and stomped on the ground.
Against the Nuggets, Kobe went crazy in the first and fourth quarters, boiled the Frogs in warm water in the second and third quarters, made 17 of 26 shots, scoring 49 points, 4 rebounds and 10 assists.
Following him was Gasol's 18 points, 10 rebounds and 3 assists, and Wei Xia's underestimated 18 points, 8 rebounds and 7 assists.
The Lakers scored 120 points again, defeating the Nuggets, with a big score of 2-0.
Wei Xia experienced life in the 1960s in reality.
Compared with the broken things off the court, the game is the only way he can calm down and focus on doing his own things.
At the press conference, press conferences from all over the country raised various questions.
Most of the reporters' questions to him are difficult to answer.
He became more and more silent.
Today, Paul Gasol was also asked related questions.
Regarding whether they would boycott the Olympics because of a major power's human rights violations and ignoring the weapons provided by anti-human butchers there.
Unexpectedly, Gasol's answer was no: "No, I don't understand this, but I will not boycott the Olympics because of this."
This is a saying of two sides to please him. He is a Spanish and he doesn't need to care about what the media thinks of him.
The reporters could not dig deeper, so they had to give up.
In the corridor, Wei Xia thanked Gasol, and the other party's speech was strong support for him.
"Don't thank me, I'm just saying my heart." Gasol said inexplicably, "Why do I resist the Olympics for something that is completely indisputable? Do those reporters know how many Olympics we can participate in in our lives?"
It's just "just speak out", why doesn't Gasol have so many troubles, but he is chased and bitten by the mold? Is there anyone who says he is?
"If this continues, I have to see a psychologist." Wei Xia said dejectedly.
"Don't! My brother has gone to see it." Gasol mentioned his younger brother Mark Gasol, who was also selected by the Lakers. "He was troubled by excessive obesity. He made many efforts to lose weight, but it was not effective at the beginning, so he was depressed and went to see a doctor."
Although Wei Xia believes that the depression of losing weight and not losing weight is different from his random words that he will be interpreted endlessly like Stephen Chow's movies.
But he still asked politely: "What?"
"Then he became the pioneer of boycotting psychotherapy clinics!" Gasol smiled, "Psychological therapy clinics are the only place in civilized society where (you) as a patient has no reason to say."
I haven't known Gasol for long, but Wei Xia's friendship with him has improved very quickly.
He is a talkative person, very funny, likes to joke, and is not strong at the same time. Moreover, he has a selfless team and possesses all the qualities of being a good teammate.
They entered the locker room together to share their income today.
Phil Jackson arrived later and took the initiative to say to Weisha: "If you don't want to, you can not attend a press conference if you don't want to."
This is done against the league's rules and regulations, but the Lakers have good reasons to protest.
Since Wei Xia was involved in political incorrect incidents, the reporter's visit to him has changed.
Especially the press conference held in the media visiting room, eight of the ten problems had nothing to do with basketball.
The Lakers have already protested against this, but they were defeated by the media using press freedom as a weapon. They believe that what questions are raised and how to ask questions is the freedom of the media. It is also the symbol of the fourth right of the news media. If Merica's reporters cannot ask questions freely, what is the difference between them and ***?
The Lakers have sufficient reasons, and the media have sufficient reasons. The bitter thing is that Wei Xia is trapped in another rumor.
The rumor is as follows: In order to prevent reporters from continuing to dig out his dark side, Wish forced the Lakers to file a complaint with the league through coercion.
This is considered as Wei Xia taking the blame for the Lakers management, and he has never made any requests.
Jim Bass initially tried to protect him, but now he has put him on the fire, and has been revived again and again. The topics surrounding him are always sensitive to social topics.
Wei Xia could not say no to the harassment of the media. The only thing he could do was close his ears and close his mouth.
April 26, 2008
In the third game of the first round of the playoffs, the battlefield was transferred to the Pepsi Center in Denver.
Wei Xia still remembers that the first official NBA game of his career was the away game in Denver.
What impressed him the most in that game was not his own performance, but the Denver people who came to the scene blew him up with hatred and hostility after Kobe entered the court.
He became the best in the game with thousands of boos, taking away the victory of the game.
Wei Xia only remembered that Jackson asked him to defend Anthony that day, but because the opponent felt poor, his defense was quite qualified.
Today, Kobe still has not won back the respect of Denver people.
The booing to him was everywhere.
After experiencing the first two defeats, the Denverans learned their lessons and did not fight against the Lakers to take the initiative to reduce the pace of the game, play defense, play hand-to-hand combat, and fight to the end in a field where both sides are not so good at.
The skills are not beaten, but the tactics are incomparable. Once the failure turns to confrontation, it is the old skill of the Eastern Conference team. The Nuggets suddenly play this with the Lakers, which has a good effect.
In the first quarter, both sides were 23 to 20, and the Lakers temporarily led by 3 points.
Wei Xia's performance is unsettling.
"Paul Gasol was unable to succeed in the confrontation, and Kobe also lost the glory of the first two games, but wish, he seemed to be extremely adapted to the away atmosphere and the intensity of the confrontation."
In the second quarter, Wei Xia scored another 10 points and led the Lakers to score 30 points in a single quarter, breaking the Nuggets' tactics.
They want to delay the rhythm, but they don't.
If they want to play defense, they will use 30 points in a single quarter to destroy their plans.
The third quarter is the quarter that locks in the victory.
Gasol performed poorly in high-intensity confrontation, and only had two blocks in a single quarter, which was considered a positive performance. Driven by Wei Xia and Kobe scored 27 points together, the Lakers swept the Nuggets' fighting spirit in one fell swoop.
The game has lost its suspense since then.
The final quarter is just garbage time, most of the fans leave the game and the game is heading towards the end.
104 to 84
Overall, the Nuggets completed their strategic tasks and delayed the pace of the game. The Lakers scored less than 120, but they couldn't resist their own scores.
Anthony and Iverson scored a total of 31 points, and the combined shooting percentage of 22% and 31% will be 2 percentage points higher than Wei Xia, who scored the most in the Lakers, and it is like a test question that has given a reference answer.
I will tell you clearly where the Nuggets lost.
Anthony did not play in a single game from the first to the third game. Iverson played two consecutive games away from home and finally returned to home to pull over.
3 to 0
