The harsh talk session ended and both parties returned to the locker room again.
In the locker room, Clippers coach Tyronn Lue made an impassioned statement:
"In this city, everyone thinks that the Lakers are a wealthy team, and we are just a small family. People are full of prejudice against us. No matter how well we play, our fans are always fewer than them, and they are far fewer."
"Are we just going to be stepped on by them?"
"No! As long as you are a man, you will not be willing to be stepped on by your mortal enemy in the same city."
All the players on the Clippers team felt angry when they heard this.
Tyronn Lue continued to see every player's emotions aroused, and he struck while the iron was hot.
"They have sat on the throne for too long and it is time to overthrow their rule."
"Today, now, God has given us this opportunity. As long as we newbies finish them off and step over their corpses, we will be the new kings of this city. By then everyone will support us, and Los Angeles will have only one
A team, that’s us, that’s our Clippers!”
When he said these last few words, he became more and more excited.
The spittle was flying everywhere.
Beverly wiped the spittle from his face, his eyes almost burning with anger.
shouted angrily:
"Down with the Lakers! The Clippers are king!"
All the players also chanted in unison:
"Down with the Lakers! The Clippers are king!"
"Down with the Lakers! The Clippers are king!"
"Down with the Lakers! The Clippers are king!"
It has to be said that although Tyronn Lue is not as outstanding as Zhugewei in the Holy City in terms of tactics.
But he is really good at making chicken soup.
Even a dead person can be encouraged to get up and hold up a sign and shout long live if he drinks a bowl of chicken soup.
Leonard, known as the robot, used to have an expressionless face no matter he won or lost.
He is even nicknamed the man with facial paralysis by some fans.
But at this time, under Tyronn Lue's passionate speech, he couldn't help but have a burning light flashing in his eyes.
The two security men outside the door seemed to be infected by the passion in the locker room and couldn't help but turn their heads and look at the closed door.
Tyronn Lue then began to assign tasks:
"The Lakers' three-pointers have always been inaccurate. Even if they can reach 40% of their three-pointers in the past month, that's all because Wang's three-pointers are so accurate, which has raised the overall shooting rate."
He took the tablet from the assistant coach next to him and showed all the players the data on it:
"Excluding Wang's three-pointer, everyone else's shooting percentage is only 33.3%."
"So we first adopted a zone defense strategy and forced them to shoot three-pointers from the outside."
Pickle asked: "Coach, what should Wang do?"
Beverley said loudly: "I said that as long as he plays, I will let him die on the court!"
Tyronn Lue nodded with satisfaction:
"The four of you will adopt a joint defense strategy. As for the king, let him have a taste of how sharp the junk dog's claws are."
Beverly laughed out loud, with a bloodthirsty look in his eyes.
He has never been afraid of anyone in his life.
What about James?
What about Durant?
As long as he's on the court, there's no one he can't stand up to.
That Chinese guy, he will let him know what a real garbage dog is!
Inside the Lakers locker room.
Coach Vogel didn't make an emotional speech.
He was explaining the next arrangement on the wall-mounted tactical board.
"They are likely to adopt a zone defense strategy as soon as they come on the court. Of course, in order to limit Wang's three-pointers, they will send a player to chase Wang, and this player will definitely be Beverley."
"Then we won't fight the king at the beginning?"
"No! We start with the king point. Only when the king point is opened, LeBron and AD will play more comfortably."
"Wang still uses the strategy of bypassing the screen. When he passes by all of you, you all cover for him. As long as he gets rid of Beverley, you pass the ball to him. Wang, after catching the ball, don't hesitate, you are the front
The only end of two minutes!”
Everyone nodded: "Understood."
At 10 o'clock in the evening, players from both sides will enter the stadium.
When the Lakers players stood at the entrance of the tunnel, they looked at the Staples Center filled with holes and empty seats.
Red, blue, green and yellow lights were constantly moving rapidly over the heads of the audience.
The wonderful goals of the Clippers players this season are constantly being played on the big screen.
The DJ at the scene used his rough voice to constantly incite the audience's emotions.
The atmosphere of the playoffs is completely different from the regular season.
It feels like these are two different games.
"No, I have to go to the bathroom."
Caruso said, turned around and trotted towards the bathroom.
"I'll go too."
Kuzma followed suit.
"And me."
Tucker also followed.
James and Nongmei both looked at each other and smiled: "They are too nervous."
The thick eyebrow nodded: "Facing such a big scene, young players will inevitably be nervous."
Then he patted Wang Yi in front of him: "Wang, aren't you nervous?"
Before Wang Yi could answer, James spoke first: "Don't ask him, this guy is not a normal person. He is excited right now."
Sure enough, when Wang Yi turned around, they saw that Wang Yi was so excited that the expression on his face was a little unnatural.
The eyes were blazing, like a wolf about to set off to hunt its prey.
The thick eyebrow shook his head helplessly: "I really envy this guy."
James asked: "Are you nervous too?"
Thick eyebrows asked back: "Aren't you nervous?"
James showed his iconic white teeth: "Of course I'm nervous."
Xiaojia asked in confusion: "You have participated in the playoffs for almost 20 years, and you are nervous in the first round?"
James took a deep breath and forced himself to calm down:
"I'm nervous, why not be nervous? Not only are I nervous in the playoffs, but all the more important games are nervous. Every Christmas game, or when I meet a more important opponent, I will be nervous."
"But you should all know that nervousness is only temporary. A minute or two before the game, you may be nervous and unable to let go. But as the game progresses and you are fully immersed, the nervousness will naturally disappear."
Everyone nodded.
This is also the personal experience of these people when they participate in important competitions.
Wang Yi looked at these teammates and couldn't help but look forward to it: "I really want to experience the feeling of nervousness."
As soon as these words came out, everyone immediately rolled their eyes.
"Kill him!"
"I think this guy is laughing at us."
"Stop talking, I'm going to dig a hole first. Let's bury it after the game."
While we were talking, the staff in front said that we could enter.
Lakers players arrived one after another.
Since they are considered the away team today, the entrance ceremony is very simple.
There was no DJ chanting their names, no roar from the audience.
Next, there is the entrance ceremony for the home team players.
The DJ at the scene prolonged his voice and read out the names of the Clippers players one by one.
Chapter completed!
