Chapter 221 Western Champions, Advance to the Finals
"Excellent cooperation!"
"Steve Nash and Qin successfully attracted the opponent's defense and created excellent shooting opportunities for teammates."
"This kind of battle of wits and courage on the field is the most exciting part of team competition!"
"But I have to say that the Spurs' on-the-spot response mainly depends on Coach Popovich."
"And the Lakers' on-the-spot response is more about the players' ability to read the game."
That is, Mustache didn't pay attention to the voice of the commentator.
Otherwise, he probably would have to find a crack in the ground to get in.
Although he didn't mention his name by name, this clearly means that his coaching ability is not good, or that he has no ability at all.
When the tactics were seen through by Qin Xiao, Popovich didn't make any adjustments.
It's not that he doesn't want to, but that he has nothing to do.
Looking at the entire coaching career, there are very few players who can make him helpless, and now Qin Xiao is added.
The defense is unstoppable, and Popovich now only hopes that before the return of the main players, the point difference will not be opened too much as much as possible.
As for Qin Xiao's fourth foul, he doesn't expect it at all now, after all, these substitute players have limited abilities.
"Shh!"
The sound of the basketball hitting the net sounded, and Qin Xiao shot through his heart with a three-pointer!
Score flashing, 35:46
"After this three-pointer, the Lakers have achieved an 11-point lead."
"However, during this period of time, the main players of both sides should also return."
"The Spurs desperately need to score and limit the Lakers offense."
"There are less than 7 minutes left before the end of the first half, let's see what else will happen between the two sides?"
"Whether the Spurs can recover some points during this period, let us wait and see."
The game continued, and all the main players of both sides returned.
The GDP trio who re-entered the field immediately played a wonderful cooperation.
Parker controlled the ball, Duncan made an off-ball screen, Yaodao coquettishly moved to get an open shot, and the big two points were easily scored.
The Lakers are not to be outdone, the Black Mamba, who has been resting off the court for a long time, shows his killer qualities!
He ate the demon sword with his back, and when he was near the free throw line, he turned around and shot back with a jumper.
In the next few rounds, the two sides fought back and forth.
The referee's whistle blew frequently, and most of them were biased towards the Spurs.
The Lakers have long been used to this, and no one complains to the referees.
For the whistling of this game, everyone is as clear as a mirror, the alliance just wants them to lose, but they will never succumb to this method.
Every Lakers player on the field broke out in a better state than usual.
Kobe's fallback is no longer strong, Gasol is no longer soft in the matchup, and Howard is no longer deserting.
As for Qin Xiao, needless to say, his performance has always been outstanding.
All the Lakers players twisted into one rope, they seemed to break through the shackles in this game!
After the first half of the game, the Los Angeles Lakers still maintained a [-]-point double-digit lead at home due to obstruction by the referee.
And when the number of free throws is far less than that of the opponent, it is still in the lead. Such scenes are rare.
During the intermission, the two sides returned to the locker room to rest.
"Brother, do you feel that the Lakers are different today?"
In the auditorium, the fans did not sit idle, but heatedly discussed the first half of the game.
"I also feel a little different. I always feel that my dominance on the court has become stronger!"
"Yeah, although I beat the Spurs by a big score in the last game, I still don't feel as good as I played today."
"Maybe it's an illusion. After all, as long as we win this game, we will be able to advance to the final!"
"Anyway, as long as the Lakers play well, it would be great if they become stronger."
These fans seem very relaxed, after all, holding a double-digit lead, they feel full of inner security.
According to statistics, since Qin Xiao joined this season, the Lakers have never been reversed when leading by double digits at halftime.
In other words, as long as this situation occurs, their winning rate is 100%!
……
"Mr. President, the situation in today's game is a bit out of control."
"The referee's whistle is already far away, but the Lakers are still in the lead, and the advantage is not small. Should they be more thorough in the second half?"
In the president's office, the assistant is asking David Stern for his opinion.
David Stern waved his hand, and said: "Forget it, let the referee return to normal calling, it has helped them enough, if you can't win it, you will admit it."
In his view, the probability of the Spurs wanting to reverse is already very low.
If a chess piece loses its function, there is no need to protect it.
"As long as Qin is here, we can guarantee huge profits in the Dragon Country market, and I have a hunch that he will surpass Yao's influence!"
Speaking of this, David Stern narrowed his eyes slightly, and his gaze was long-term.
Even if the Spurs can win tonight's game, it's just selling one more ticket.
But Qin Xiao's huge gold-absorbing power is far more than a simple ticket.
……
A moment later, the second half of the game began.
After losing the referee's protection, the Spurs struggled even more on the court.
The Lakers' strong defense completely imprisoned their offense.
Even the GDP trio cannot find the direction of breakthrough.
Coach Popovich fell silent, the game was not over yet, but he had already expected the result.
Regardless of the offensive or defensive end, the Lakers have completely dominated!
After three quarters, the point difference came to [-] points.
"There is no chance. The Los Angeles Lakers returning to the home court seem to be ending the series."
After the start of the fourth quarter, the Spurs did not make too much resistance.
The main players played for only 3 minutes before they were all replaced.
At this moment, the Lakers fans cheered thoroughly.
"Beep!"
The final whistle sounded and the game ended.
89:115
The Los Angeles Lakers sent the Spurs home fishing with a 26-point victory.
With a big score of 4:1, the first to get the tickets to the finals!
After a lapse of three seasons, the Zijin Army once again reached the stage of the finals!
All the Lakers players rushed onto the court to celebrate their victory in the Western Conference Finals.
On the Spurs side, the GDP trio were saddened.
As they get older, their chances of reaching the finals in the future are getting smaller and smaller.
Looking at the opponent celebrating happily, Duncan had mixed feelings in his heart.
"It's over, this round of confrontation between the strong has finally ended with the victory of the Purple and Gold Legion!"
"Although the Spurs lost the Western Conference Finals, they are equally grateful for the wonderful game they brought us."
"Hopefully next season, they can recover."
"Finally, congratulations to the Los Angeles Lakers again for advancing to the finals. They are the champions of the Western Conference!"
