June 3.

As time goes by, under the high expectations of all fans, the third match between the Magic and the Lakers Finals will officially start in the Orlando Arena today.

It can be said that before this game began, the Lakers were directly pushed to the top of public opinion by the media, and basically all the news from the outside world revolved around the Lakers.

Except for the Lakers who are currently lagging behind with a big score of 0:2, most news is to describe and explore various reasons for the internal discord of the Lakers.

And during this period, although the Lakers official has come forward to refute the rumors, it says that there are only some slight verbal quarrels between Kobe and Bynum.

However, as this matter becomes more and more popular, the Lakers' very official answer is obviously unable to meet the needs of fans.

So in just one day, the version of the Lakers' internal discord has been reported to be as high as three digits.

It is no exaggeration to say that for fans who did not watch this year's NBA Finals in time, when these people rashly see news about internal discords about the Lakers, they will definitely be confused.

Because each version represents a story, in the end, even those who know the inside story may doubt whether what they know is the real inside story.

However, as the third game of the NBA Finals began, the focus of Lakers fans is to complete the transfer again, because at this moment, in the eyes of Lakers fans, their most concerned issue is whether Bynum can still play in the game G3.

You know, in the final stage of the second game of the finals, the dispute between Kobe and Bynum seemed to be a bit intense.

Even in the end, Bynum was taken away from the scene by the assistant coach, so in this case, whether Bynum can play in G3 will become very important.

If Bynum cannot play, the Magic will have a huge inside advantage. In addition, the Magic in this game is home game, so in this case the Lakers will become very dangerous.

And it is in this situation that whether Bynum can play at this moment is the most urgent thing that fans want to know the most.

However, the scheming Lakers did not reveal anything about this, but said that there was only a simple quarrel between Kobe and Bynum, which was far less terrible than the rumored outside world.

However, before the game started, most fans still believed that Bynum should play in the finals g3 match.

Although there are some personal disputes between Bynum and Kobe, when the team is about to fall into a cliff, if they can still distinguish between the big things, they may temporarily unite to fight against foreign enemies at this critical moment.

What's more, I believe that Zen Master Jackson will never abandon Bynum in the g3 game, because this will undoubtedly be equivalent to cutting off one's own arm.

Although all this can only be considered a personal guess before the Lakers' starting lineup is truly released.

But even so, this has become a hot topic among fans.

It is also worth mentioning that in this year's finals, the Magic are already ahead of the Lakers with a score of 2:0, and there was a quarrel inside the Lakers, which caused a disagreement.

In this case, the league thought that the ratings might be low again and again, but no one expected that when the news media revealed internal discord between the Lakers, the ratings of this game increased instead of falling.

Even with 30 minutes left before the game, the finals' ratings had already broken the highest record in the first two games, reaching the peak of the NBA ratings this year!!

I have to say that Chinese people are not the best at watching the excitement. I believe that for people in any country, they are basically based on a salty fish mentality that they are not afraid of big things when watching the excitement.

Before the game started, both sides warmed up shooting in their respective halfs, but compared with the previous two games, the Magic team who returned to home in this game seemed a little relaxed.

After all, the team has scored two consecutive games in the finals, and when they were maliciously disturbed by Lakers fans in two consecutive away games, the Magic team who returned to their home court was obviously in a good mood.

This reaction from home fans can perfectly explain the mood of the Magic people at the moment. Before the game started, the Magic fans were already celebrating.

All fans wore blue and white cheering T-shirts and held up the inspiring banner content in their hands.

For a professional athlete, this feeling is considered home.

After all, the support of fans is not only to give athletes spiritual motivation. In more cases, when returning to home, the athletes will be in a better state than when they are away.

This is not just a word, but there is really some scientific basis, because in the case of home games, no matter how the players are in the field, the fans on the scene will provide support and encouragement.

Therefore, even if the players feel bad in the long run, they will have a high chance of gradually regaining their feel later.

And at the same time, when the players were playing on the court, they thought that there were countless people watching him and cheering for him.

Then you will become very relaxed or very excited in your mindset.

When the athlete's mentality and body are in a state of decompression, his performance on the court can naturally be guaranteed.

So when the Magic successfully brought the Finals to Orlando, the pressure from the outside world has basically shifted to the Lakers.

In addition to the fact that the Lakers were already behind with a big score of 0:2 in the finals, it is more because of what the situation is inside the Lakers, which outsiders obviously cannot know.

After all, in the last stage after Bynum left the game, how empty the Lakers' inside line was, and what kind of performance did Howard play out can be regarded as visible to the naked eye.

This also leads to a very embarrassing situation for Lakers fans at this moment.

That is, in my heart, I now wish I could eat Bynum raw, and even asked him to get out of Los Angeles, get out of the NBA, and disappear from the sight of these fans.

But when it comes back to reality, Lakers fans discovered that even though they are now hating Bynum and are even unwilling to look at him directly, the team cannot lack his contribution on the court.

It can be said that once Bynum is unable to play, the Magic's chance of winning will increase by at least 15%.

I have to say that for Los Angeles fans at this moment, this is indeed a bit embarrassing.

As the game is about to begin, with all the fans looking forward to it, both sides announced the starting lineups of this game respectively.

Magic:

Sujiu, Pitrus, Lewis, Tkoglu, and Howard.

Lakers:

Fisher, Kobe, Ariza, Gasol, and Bynum.

With all the fans' expectations, when the Lakers' starting list came out, the fans in Los Angeles obviously breathed a long sigh.

Although he had long been unbearable to Bynum and the others, he even scolded him on the Internet.

But when Lakers fans saw Bynum appearing on the starting list, they still felt a little relaxed.

Of course, not all fans think so, and some fans are still worried at this moment.

Because Bynum's immature performance on the court was too many, but before, it was just some small fights in the regular season.

So for this young center who has made a lot of contributions to Los Angeles, fans basically accept it calmly.

However, in the last game, the dispute between Bynum and Kobe obviously caused great trauma to the Lakers, so in the g3 game, Bynum was arranged to start by Zen Master Jackson.

But whether he can be compatible with Kobe on the court and whether he can play the tacit cooperation in the regular season.

Or whether Bynum, who has been playing again, can he really devote himself to both offense and defense, and be willing to act as a green leaf under Kobe's feet?

Push all personal grievances aside and help the team complete this year's finals journey.

These issues are still the most worrying thing for Lakers fans at present. After all, humans have feelings, not robots.

What will happen to the Lakers' chemical reaction on the court next? All of this is still unknown at the moment, but at least from the overall momentum of the team, the Lakers are already at a disadvantage without any suspense.

After all, although this Magic team, which is currently standing in the finals, is young, but the team is able to overcome five levels and six players to this point, relying on the passion in the team and the unity between all the players.

It is no exaggeration to say that Iverson's image in the league has always been a thorn player, but in the process of the overall unity atmosphere of the Magic, Iverson's contribution to spiritual attributes is definitely an indispensable contribution.

It is because there are too many young players in the Magic team at this moment that there is even more need for a top figure in the league like Iverson to fight.

Even though Iverson was no longer as brave as he was in this period, Iverson was still on the first ladder in terms of overall popularity and personal prestige in the league.

In addition, the Magic also changed some changes in the starting lineup of this game, and the range of changes is a bit huge.

That is, Van Gundy actually won Iverson's starting lineup, and under such circumstances, there was no news of Iverson's personal injury before the game.

So the most likely reason is that when Su Jiu played without the ball on the court in the last game, his personal efficiency increased sharply, and his offensive methods became more abundant.

This also led to Van Gundy in this game directly mentioning Tkoglu as the starting point to act as a ball-holding organization point, allowing Su Jiu to act as a ball-free role from the beginning, so as to avoid being targeted by the Lakers' defense.

From the current perspective, Stan Van Gundy's change is obviously very timely at this moment, and it is also very reasonable in terms of the overall situation of the team.

After all, in the previous few games, even though Iverson had always started, he still played a role in leading the second team to score points in most cases.

So when facing the Los Angeles Lakers with double towers, Tkoglu mentioned the starter and put Iverson on the bench, which is obviously a win-win operation.

As for how Stan Van Gundy convinced Iverson in this process, outsiders naturally cannot know.

However, the biggest possibility is that when the team is currently leading by 2:0, Iverson has seen the hope of the team winning the championship, and has seen his first championship trophy in his career, as if he is waving to him.

And he also realized that he was no longer the "answer" who could do everything in heaven and earth at his peak, so in order to win, Iverson obeyed Van Gundy's arrangement.

I have to say that when Iverson can try his best to put down some face, then the Magic Team at this moment can definitely be called a rainbow of momentum!!!

As the referee blew the whistle at the beginning of the game, Howard and Bynum stood in the middle circle to jump the ball.

During the jump ball stage, Howard once again got the ball rights for the Magic, but this time, what surprised Su Jiu was a little bit surprised.

Under normal circumstances, although Bynum is difficult to jump to Howard, whose bounce speed is more abnormal, when Howard faces Bynum, he still feels under a lot of pressure.

However, for this jump, Bynum seemed a little lazy, as if he didn't use all his strength, but just symbolically jumped.

Seeing this situation, Su Jiu, who was pushing to halftime, nodded thoughtfully, as if he had thought of something in an instant.

After halftime, Su Jiu handed the ball directly to Tekoglu on the side, and instead turned around and threw himself into the ball without the ball.

Since it has been fully proved in the last game that when Su Jiu held the ball, the pressure on the Lakers' defense will be very huge, but when Su Jiu plays without the ball, the pressure on him will be much smaller.

And it can also create more offensive opportunities through the off-ball pick-and-roll made by teammates for themselves.

In the end, Zen Master Jackson's defensive thinking on the court was mainly to cut off the connection between Su Jiu and other teammates.

So when Su Jiu held the ball, he had very few opportunities to connect the team.

However, when Su Jiugai played without the ball, his teammates would make pick-and-rolls for him many times on the off-ball side, the defensive players sometimes face some forward and delays in order to prevent the pick-and-roll.

In this case, Su Jiu was able to make good use of this opportunity to deliver wonderful passes to other teammates.

This is also the main reason why Su Jiu frequently contributed air connections with Howard and the others in the fourth quarter.
