0424 How old are you
After the post-match interview, the Lakers simply held a celebration of the Western Conference Championship, mainly because Jim Bass insisted on doing it.
It is probably because of the successful championship last year that the Lakers will not lose the championship in 2008 like they did in 2009. Celebrating the Western Conference Championship made the whole process bitter and revengeful expressions. Kobe smiled and led the way to speak, thanking the fans and the coaching staff.
The person in charge of the celebration ceremony was the female reporter Doris Burke in 2009. She took the microphone from Kobe and turned to look at Su Yang: "Coach, I won the Western Conference Championship for two consecutive years and reached the finals. What do you think of this result?"
"First of all, I sincerely express my gratitude to the Spurs. They are an excellent team. Coach Popovich's continuous changes in lineups have brought me a lot of inspiration. They have strong potential. Danny Green and Kawhi Leonard are about to break through the limit of the sky..."
Starting from the second game, the Spurs defended Curry with heavy force. In terms of double-teaming, they were particularly like the Heat, which helped the Lakers practice how to deal with it in advance. After the entire series, the Lakers already have a lot of experience, and few passes can reduce mistakes well.
So Su Yang is sincerely grateful to the Spurs. He was still worried about how to deal with it without the lineup of last season.
As for complimenting Danny Green and Leonard, it is also out of sincerity. After all, in the previous life, Danny Green scored the first three-point shooting percentage in history in the 12-13 finals, while Leonard almost won the free throw and helped the team win the championship.
"I am very happy to be able to return to the finals. This is the reward for our hard training, unity and full play. We deserve all this, and Los Angeles fans are worthy of it. I hope we can continue this wonderful performance in the finals."
Compared with the big lineup of last season, the Lakers' finals trip this season was bumpy. First, they had a bad start and lost two consecutive times, and the players suffered three consecutive losses from strong opponents. Finally, they regained the first hope of the West at the end of the season, and Kobe was accidentally injured again.
To be able to defeat the Spurs and advance, Kobe's performance is crucial, and Curry attracts defense and leads to negative reviews.
After Su Yang finished speaking, he smiled and bulged his cheeks and signaled. The female reporter Doris Burke continued to ask: "Now let's talk about young people. You have the best killer player Kobe Bryant, and there are also a few young players who don't know what effect they will play, such as Draymond Green, Kent Bazemore, how do you think they will perform in this round of the series?"
I don’t know if it was the reporter who deliberately missed it or did not think Curry was critical at all, but Su Yang decided to add Curry’s name, and did not take the opportunity to suppress Curry’s value and increase the difficulty of renewing the contract. That is the evaluation Curry should have.
"Stephen Curry is also a killer player. He played six games in the series and he completed the final victory twice. Paul Gasol is our core offense and defense in the interior, as well as Ron, Jordan Hill, Jamison, Meeks, Blake... Each of them is very important. As for the young players, Draymond Green performed very well. Although he was beaten by Tim Duncan in two consecutive games, I can see his progress, and so is Bazemore. They have some shortcomings, and they have a bright future. I love them."
After saying this, Su Yang did not blush, did not speed up his heart, and looked quite calm. He knew that many players were just playing so as to get rest for the main players, especially Bidlins, but if you want to praise them, you should praise them together.
Curry immediately handed Su Yang a "thank you" look, and silently raised his hand and beat his chest, indicating that he had already remembered it in his heart.
Su Yang responded with a smile, thinking that if he was playing the 2kol game, it would be Curry (Orange Ss level) fragment 1.
Doris Burke turned to wave to Green, and Green walked to the front of the crowd with a smile, especially like the donkey in Shrek.
"The Pacers and Heat are in progress. If you were asked to pick an opponent, which team would you rather hope?"
"I want to fight against the Heat more because they have super strong forward players LeBron and Wade, which will bring me super defensive challenges. Paul George is also very good, but LeBron is LeBron, and every excellent defender wants to try to defend him..."
Burke saw Green pause and thought that after he finished speaking, he was about to raise the microphone, but Green continued: "In addition, we just heard that ESPN called the coach Spurs Killer. We want to help him have another title, that is LeBronx!"
If the Heat enter the finals and the Lakers defeat the Heat in the finals, Su Yang will win three wins of LeBron in three years, which is indeed a LeBron nemesis. But why do they treat LeBron in the name of the whole team and in the name of the entire team, and treat LeBron in the name of his personal name, which is a bit of a double standard.
It is probably because the Spurs are a standard team-based style, and most of the Heat's traffic is concentrated on LeBron alone.
Su Yang grinned and thought to himself: You kid want to fight against LeBron, why do you have to pull me? Although I want to do it too.
Kobe and others also smiled, making it seem that the whole team had reached a private agreement, and they were determined to beat LeBron.
Doris Burke is also very happy. The results of the Eastern Conference Finals have not yet been released, and related topics have exploded early and the ratings have been full.
The interview ended soon and everyone went back to their own homes.
The next day on June 1st, he woke up at noon. Su Yang received a notice from the league office: After ten days of strict review, the NBA Council has completely approved Su Yang's acquisition of the King, and it will officially announce the completion of the acquisition just after the finals.
Su Yang replied to confirm, and instead had some lunch, he picked up the phone and contacted his old colleague of Thunder, who had confirmed to join the Kings' new team, Brian, and asked the other party to help contact a junior scout named nick u'ren.
The reason why he attaches so much importance is mainly because Nick, who was hired as a special assistant coach by the Warriors in Su Yang's previous life. In the finals of the Warriors vs. the Cavaliers in the 14-15 season, it was recommended that Cole use Iguodala instead of Bogut to start.
That suggestion not only helped the Warriors win three games in a row, but also helped to start the NBA's real small ball storm. After Bogut did not serve as the starter, the Warriors became the first team in NBA history and had a team with a maximum starting position of less than two meters in the finals.
It can be said that Nick has a unique vision and has a deep understanding of the competition. Such talents must be obtained quickly.
If the contract is successfully signed, it will also be regarded as a special assistant arrangement and will not be included in the coaching staff list for the time being, but fully consider Nick's suggestions.
At 7 o'clock in the afternoon, the Heat Pacers' sixth game of the Eastern Conference Finals started. After two hours of fierce battle, the Pacers beat the Heat.
Judging from the data, the defensive styles of the two teams are extremely distinct.
The Pacers have 53 rebounds, 20 more than the Heat.
The Heat made 10 three-pointers and 15 free throws, but the Heat's total score was only 77 points. A little calculation would tell how bleak the Heat's mid-range and the basket score were. Both the offense and defense ends of the inside were beaten by the Pacers, and Hibert scored 24 points and 11 rebounds.
In comparison, through the pinch, Paul George made 6 mistakes and Lance Stephenson made 4 mistakes, and the Pacers made 20 mistakes. As long as you dare to hold the ball, the Heat dare to double-team. If you defend the rebound, you will be able to make a three-pointer. I will admit that I can make a three-pointer.
The Heat did not bother with fouls. The league's second offensive efficiency seemed to be helpless when they encountered the Pacers' second defense.
For a time, the suspense of who could reach the finals rose sharply, and some fans sent private messages and left messages to ask Su Yang.
It was not convenient for public discussion on similar matters, but in order to establish the psychological advantage of 'I know the Heat quite well', Su Yang forwarded the fan comment and wrote: "Of course, the Heat advanced. They lost defensive rebounds and could easily improve the Pacers... "
Many fans expressed dissatisfaction with Su Yang's prediction.
The next day on June 3rd, the Heat beat the Pacers 99 to 76 and advanced to the finals 4 to 3, as Su Yang expected.
Those fans who were dissatisfied expressed their consent. The main reason was that the Heat really did not lose defensive rebounds. The frontcourt rebounds were 7 more than the Pacers, and they repeatedly scored twice on offense, which made the Pacers exhausted from dealing with the defense and put the game into garbage time in advance.
23v24 is staged again.
