Chapter 220 Charlotte's Finals
With a gap of 11 points, the Bobcats won the game.
At the Staples Center, after the game, Kobe with his arms akimbo did not leave the field in a hurry like in G1.
毕竟这场比赛，他25投12中，34分4个篮板6个助攻3个抢断，算是SVP级别的表现了。
Even so, Kobe was even more depressed.
His performance has returned to normal, and the Lakers still lost.
The gap of 11 points is not small, and it is impossible to talk about crushing, but the Lakers who have already been suppressed have no chance to think about such things as reversing and winning.
Counting the crushing of G1, this finals seems to have no suspense.
Of course, the reason why Kobe is more depressed is not that the gold cup in front of him is getting farther and farther away from him, but that the old shark not far away is very embarrassing.
After winning G2 in the finals, Lao Sha also got a not-so-perfect script, but it was considered the second-perfect script.
In the fourth quarter, he suddenly appeared on the stage and scored 12 points in a single quarter, which surprised everyone. Turiaf couldn't stop him, and so did Mrs. Jia who came up behind.
Although the Bobcats have always had the advantage, it was the Sharks who led the team to seal the victory.
Therefore, it is only natural for the old shark to groan.
Although he stayed on the sidelines and Li Ke approached him, Kobe didn't know what to say.
To put it bluntly, the finals are not over yet?
No, that's not Kobe's style.
Kobe's ruthlessness is in his heart.
So, Kobe just held out his right hand with a cold face.
Li Ke also stretched out his right hand, and said a bit bluntly: "2 to 0, Kobe, in two more games, we will win the cup."
As soon as these words came out, Kobe couldn't bear it: "You will be disappointed."
"No, I won't, and not only will I not be disappointed, I'll even say we're going to win the trophy at the Time Warner Center."
That would be the assertion that the Bobcats are going to sweep the Lakers 4-0.
Speaking of which, this possibility is not impossible.
As long as the "brave" trait is triggered all the time, coupled with the return of the old shark, the only inside disadvantage can be made up, and two more wins like crushing, it is not a dream at all.
He asserted that it was also a flag, but Li Ke didn't panic at all. The flag was erected too firmly.
If this flag is not erected, it may not be so stable.
With this flag up, Kobe's fighting spirit will always be maintained at a high point, and the brave trait is expected to be triggered all the time.
On the sidelines, Kobe left with a cold face, but the old shark was pulled by Craig Sager for a sideline interview.
The man in colorful clothes asked the question that the public wanted to know the most: "Shaq, are you injured?"
Old Shark's answer was: "Of course, of course I was injured. I sprained my ankle and have been recovering."
In the commentary seat, during the simultaneous broadcast, McBrin, Kenny Smith, and Barkley were already holding back their laughter.
When the interview was over and the screen turned back, Barkley started:
"A sprained ankle? Is that considered an injury? When I was younger, I sprained my ankle, sprained my fingers, never rested..."
McBrin cut him off: "You gotta understand, Charles, Shaq's 36 after all."
The oil tank of the 36-year-old shark has bottomed out, but if you think about it carefully, who is not? Isn't the 36-year-old Zhan also unable to do what he wants?
Barkley kept his mouth shut. When he was 36 years old, he also entered a state of powerlessness.
Understood, he absolutely understood.
……
"Before the finals, no one could have imagined that the Bobcats could lead the Celtics 2-0!"
When McBrin said these words on TNT TV's post-match program, he suddenly felt strange: "Why are these words so familiar?"
"Because of the Eastern Conference semifinals, the Bobcats beat the Celtics is also an upset."
Kenny Smith quickly found the source, and then shook his head: "But in the finals, I don't think the Bobcats are upset."
The Bobcats are not an upset, so why is no one optimistic about the Bobcats before the game?
"If they hadn't released the smoke bomb that Shaq would withdraw from the finals, before the finals, the Bobcats and the Lakers would definitely be evenly matched."
The Bobcats' four-core matchup against the Lakers Kogao, on paper, is naturally evenly matched.
But the Bobcats released a smoke bomb that the old shark couldn't fight, and the gap in the inside line was clear at a glance, and public opinion naturally turned to the Lakers.
Kenny Smith, on behalf of the brick reporters, said that he would not take the blame.
"Scored 12 points in the final quarter. Shaq's ankle sprain may have recovered a long time ago. Therefore, we can put Shaq in the Bobcats' main lineup for discussion."
McBrin started again, and Mark Stein took up the conversation, starting directly with no doubt:
"There is no doubt that with Shaq's return, the Bobcats have no disadvantages inside. On the outside, Shelton has played far beyond the usual personal performance in two consecutive games. AI and Gerald Wallace also followed his explosion and performed well."
Then look at the Lakers: "Looking at the Lakers, Kobe's state is not stable. Sheldon's defense against him has succeeded in one game and also failed in one game. But if he has succeeded, he cannot rule out the possibility of succeeding again in the next game."
"Kobe is now the barometer of the Lakers. If he fails, the Lakers will basically lose. Therefore, there is no doubt that the Bobcats have the advantage now, and they have a greater probability of winning the finals."
"The group of words Bobcats on the gold cup has been engraved halfway."
Meiyang Stephen A. Smith, who relied on Kobe to make a fortune, stood on the side of the Lakers in both G1 and G2, but after the two games, even he, a die-hard Lakers fan and Komi, had to change his team.
"Maybe the Lakers still have a chance, but they are already 0-2 behind."
As soon as it was mentioned here that we were behind 0 to 2, the data emperor Zach Lowe appeared.
"When the finals fell behind 0 to 2, it was completely reversed. There are only three times in NBA history, namely the Celtics in 1969, the Trail Blazers in 1977, and the Heat in 06."
The most recent one was the Heat, but everyone understands the Heat's 0-2 reversal.
Therefore, there is no doubt that under the big data, the possibility of the Lakers' reversal is very small.
……
After playing two Staples games, the finals will head to Charlotte.
Speaking of which, this finals is Charlotte's first.
It was the first time for the Bobcats, which established the team in 04, to even play in the playoffs, and they must have never played in the finals.
Before the Hornets moved out of Charlotte, although there were highlights, they were never connected to the finals.
So, for the first time in the city's history in the finals, Charlotte gave enough cards.
Not to mention the advertising slogans all over the city, the Charlotte city government also announced:
"On the match day of the finals, the road near the Time Warner Center was designated as a race-only lane, and public viewing points were set up in front of dozens of landmarks such as the Charlotte City Plaza..."
In addition, the broadcast team of Central Five also arrived in Charlotte. Taking advantage of the intermission period of the game, they asked Li Ke to make an appointment for an interview during the finals.
In the night, Erbao suddenly made a fuss, brought a baby, and wrote less, so the number of words in this chapter should be a little less.
