Another day passed, and on June 8th, Game 4 of the Western Conference Finals arrived.

The Grizzlies are ready to sweep the Lakers into the finals in one go, and Sun Ce is also ready to get the Dragon Slayer Koka!

Thinking that if he wins the championship and goes to the Olympics with Kojo in hand... Sun Ce is so excited!

The game went smoothly. After three quarters, the Grizzlies led the Lakers by 8 points. In the final quarter, they replaced Sun Ce, Tony Allen, Battier, Randolph, and Gasol with a lineup that was very defensive.

We used Battier and Randolph as a forward partner instead of Paul George and Battier. The main reason was that Battier defended Kobe very well today. Kobe only scored 18 points on 6 of 22 shots in the first three quarters.

Played for 33 minutes, 20 of which were between Battier and Kobe. This allowed Tony Allen to guard Paul, maximize the restriction on the opponent's super backcourt combination, and use Randolph to continue the offense.

.

However, Kobe can never be underestimated! Especially for Kobe, this battle is about dignity.

When the Grizzlies thought the game was already in hand, Kobe exploded in the final quarter, making 5 of 7 shots and 6 of 6 free throws in a single quarter, scoring 16 points and 3 steals. While Kobe scored 16 points in the final quarter,

With the help of Paul's passing and open three-point shots, he led the Lakers to a single quarter score.

There was no time to react, and Kobe's outburst came suddenly. In a little more than half a quarter, the Lakers had already taken the lead, and even led by 7 points with 3 minutes left. The Grizzlies' lineup was broken, and they encountered the Lakers.

The team defended desperately and only scored 9 out of 9 points. They did not dare to change offensive players casually because they could no longer guard Kobe. It would most likely be worse if they replaced offensive players. They could only try to chase the points in the end.

Although the final score was 5 to 2, it was still a little short.

Kobe exploded in the final quarter, raising his personal data to 34 points, 7 rebounds, 4 assists and 4 steals, helping the Lakers make a comeback in the final quarter!

Sun Ce didn't expect this at all. It was already in the final quarter. Tony Allen and Battier defended Kobe in the first three quarters. Kobe made 6 of 22 shots, and he actually made 5 of 7 in the final quarter!

Although it is still strong in the middle, it is enough not to be strong at the critical moment.

Gasol also had a rare hard time today and got the rebound. Although it was most likely a comeback, as he was a bit miserable by the Spurs in the last round, the 4 points and 5 baskets in the last quarter of this game were indeed hard.

The score was tied in the 5th minute of the 4th quarter. Sun Ce himself was in good physical condition and his defense was not bad. Even though Kobe was forced to a negative angle on the bottom line, he was still able to make a mid-range shot. It was not their side.

The problem with defensive strength is that Kobe was too buggy in this quarter.

…

In an interview after Game 3, Kobe murmured that he would never be swept, and he did it.

However, the Lakers' counterattack failed to continue. On June 10, the Grizzlies returned home to face the Lakers in Game 5 of the Western Conference Finals.

There is almost no suspense. Kobe has always been strong, scoring 39 points and 6 rebounds. Paul also got assists, but apart from the two of them, only Ci Shiping scored 12 points and Sessions scored 11 points. Then the Lakers again

No one else scored more than 5 points. Gasol had 4 points and 9 rebounds. My sister-in-law was completely exhausted and made 1 of 11 shots in a single game.

The Lakers only scored 90 points as a team.

The Grizzlies won the game very smoothly. They were already divided after three quarters. They did not relax in the last quarter and worked hard. Sun Ce and Randolph had more rest time in the first three quarters. Sun Ce played 23 minutes in the first three quarters.

Randolph scored 14 points, 7 rebounds and 8 assists. Randolph played 20 minutes in the first three quarters and scored 14 points and 4 rebounds. In the last quarter, while the two worked hard to defend, they tried their best to score when they should.

In the end, Sun Ce got assists in 35 minutes, Randolph scored 22 points and 8 rebounds, Nash scored 25 points and 7 assists, Klay Thompson and Paul George both scored 12 points, and Gasol scored 12 points.

With 6 rebounds, 2 assists and 2 blocks, the two Kings combined for 16 points... The Grizzlies defeated the Lakers and advanced to the finals 4-1!

After the game, while they were celebrating, reporters quickly asked for an interview before the scene became chaotic. Sun Ce was once again invited to participate in a post-game interview.

The reporter from ESPN asked: "Lord, congratulations on reaching the finals for the first time. You once again got a triple-double, tying Kidd's record of 11 triple-doubles in the playoffs for third place in history, behind James' 14.

The triple-double in the playoffs is only 3 times away, are you confident you can surpass him?"

"Unless I tie his hands and prevent him from getting a triple-double, why don't we wait until he retires? He has one more triple-double than me in the playoffs this year."

After entering the finals and being in a good mood, Sun Ce did not choose to end the topic. This made the ESPN reporter feel so happy that he was not blocked by Sun Ce's words.

The ESPN reporter continued to ask: "You have fulfilled your words and refused to see Bryant and James meet in the finals. Do you have anything to say to their fans?"

If Sun Ce had known this question, he would have just killed the reporter with the previous question. Reporters really don't have a good heart.

Sun Ce thought for a moment and had an answer, and replied: "I know Kobe and LeBron fans will be very sorry, but now is a new era, they have fallen behind, and the future has already come!"

You should be so arrogant, you should be arrogant by defeating Kobe in the Western Conference Finals and advancing to the Finals!

As soon as Sun Ce finished speaking, Nash burst into tears and jumped on his back like a child and started howling like a ghost.

Finally made it to the finals!

Nash has reached the Western Conference Finals for the fourth time, losing to the Spurs twice and the Lakers once. This time, he finally crossed the Western Conference Finals and reached the Finals!

And it’s not that Stoudemire was thinking about reaching the Finals one day after he left the Suns the year before last. He is still the main force now! In this round of the Western Conference Finals, he played a key role, but he is definitely not needed.

After consuming the Lakers to directly start the onslaught, he has been performing very well. In this game, Sun Ce only played 23 minutes in the first three quarters, and Randolph only played 20 minutes in the first three quarters. This is because Nash played so well.

He played 26 minutes in the third quarter and scored 25 points and 7 assists, helping the team lead by 18 points after the third quarter, locking the promotion in one fell swoop.

The Grizzlies were celebrating their first appearance in the Finals in team history. On the other side, Kobe seemed to have no regrets or other emotions on his face, and he did not congratulate his opponent. It was not his character.

He doesn't know what his mentality is now. Maybe he is upset, maybe he is looking forward to the reconstruction mentioned by the management, maybe he is still reluctant...

After playing for 44 minutes tonight, I was very tired. Most of my teammates had lost their fighting spirit tonight. Kobe wiped the sweat from his forehead with a towel, wiping it all the way to the back of his head. He shook the towel, put it on his shoulders, and walked into the players.

aisle.

Most of the Lakers left, except Paul who looked at the opposite side and refused to leave.

After seven years, he finally made it to the Western Conference Finals, but the result... He hated it so much. If only he hadn't been injured, if only his condition could be adjusted to a better state!

He is really unwilling to give in! But he can't do much now and has already tried his best. This makes him even more unwilling to give in, because he feels that he can adjust to better things, but he hasn't yet.

But there's no point in being unwilling, I can only watch helplessly as the No. 3 on the opposite side enters the finals ahead of him.

Paul chose to stay and watch in person as league vice president Adam Silver presented the Western Conference Championship trophy to the Grizzlies.

He wants to remember this picture!

“King of the Western Conference(*):

Goal: Defeat Kobe Bryant's team, the Los Angeles Lakers, in the next Western Conference Finals, ending Kobe's Western dominance of the Western Conference Finals. (Completed)

Congratulations to the host for obtaining the bonus buff skill: King of the Western Conference.

Because the host helped the team defeat Kobe Bryant's Los Angeles Lakers 4-1, he was awarded a special card: persistence at four o'clock in the morning."

“King of the Western Conference (buff):

Gain effect: Whenever the host helps the team reach the Western Conference Finals, regardless of the regular season record of the host's team, the host will be extremely confident and have a positive attitude to challenge;

Suppression effect: Whenever the host helps the team reach the Western Conference finals, no matter how strong the opponent team's regular season or playoff performance is, the host will be psychologically affected. Depending on the psychological quality of the opponent team's star, it may have no effect.

Maybe the opponent's mentality is explosive, and if the host has the experience of defeating the star in the playoffs, the effect will be improved."

"Special card: persistence at four in the morning.

A new training mode in the humility learning section has been activated: persistence at four in the morning.

Effect: When the host starts training before four o'clock in the morning and insists on completing it for two hours, the muscle memory effect of the day's training is significantly improved."

After the celebration, Sun Ce returned to the locker room with soda stains on his head and took a shower. When he turned on the system screen, he was stunned...

The former is a magical skill, and the latter is also a magical skill!

The previous one is only effective in the Western Conference Finals. It can make teammates more confident and more active, and it can also suppress the opponent's confidence. It depends on the opponent's psychological quality. Of course, this is also a magical skill.

The one at the back is the real magic!

Sun Ce thought it was a one-time special card, but who knew it was a new mode for activating the learning section!

This skill allows him, Sun, to practice shooting and three-point shooting with his left hand as quickly as possible! Even if it shortens the time it takes to develop his left hand from three to five years to two or three years, it is definitely a magical skill!

As for the mid-range shot on the right side of the right hand three-second zone, it is no longer just accumulation that can continue to improve. It requires daily training to maintain the state. From the game and training, we can find the areas to continue to improve and conduct targeted training.

But the left hand, three-pointer, is in the early stages of development and needs to quickly strengthen muscle memory!

Not to mention anything else, if you can develop your left hand's layup before the start of the Olympics, you will definitely perform better in the Olympics! If you can get your left hand to handle the ball better before the start of the finals, it will also have a huge impact.
Chapter completed!
