As soon as Barnes said these words, all the team members turned their heads to look at him.
Even head coach Walton turned to look at Barnes.
Before entering the playoffs, they felt that the Western Conference Finals was simply an elusive goal.
I feel that it is just an unrealistic fantasy imagined by Wang Yi in order to boost the morale of the team.
Entering the playoffs, that illusion will quickly fade.
But now they have really done it, Wang Yi really led them to the Western Conference Finals.
So of course they think they have accomplished their goals for this season.
It's a miracle that a team like them can enter the Western Conference Finals.
But miracles don’t happen every day.
The Warriors are too strong. If they want to surpass the Warriors and enter the finals, it is simply impossible.
The probability of the Kings knocking out the Warriors was 0.73% before the game, not even 1%.
Now Barnes actually said that Wang Yi’s goal has become the finals?
is that true?
But when they thought about it carefully, they felt that it was definitely true.
With Wang Yi's personality, the stronger the opponent, the more excited he becomes, now that he has reached the Western Conference Finals.
If they are just four wins away from entering the finals, then why can't their goal become the finals or even the championship?
However, this is still too difficult, too difficult, as difficult as climbing to the sky.
So most of the team members were just slightly stunned for a moment.
But at this time, the blood in Hilde's heart was already boiling, and her eyes were already brightening.
He is the guy with the most fighting spirit in the Kings team besides Wang Yi.
Barnes' words awakened him.
He clenched his fists involuntarily and looked at his teammates, with excitement and excitement in his tone.
"Yeah, why can't we think about the finals?"
"We defeated the Lakers with a probability of less than 3%, and then defeated the Clippers with a probability of less than 7%. Now why can't we defeat the Warriors? Can't we advance to the Finals?"
His words made both Bagley and Holmes feel a little more eager.
Mitchell raised his fist high: "Yes, the boss must think so. So from now on our goal is the finals. Whoever says otherwise, I will be the first to tell him."
Rookie Danny raised his head, his eyes shining.
But except for a few of them, the rest of the players on the team still don't believe that the Kings can beat the Warriors.
yes.
Factors such as will and spirit are indeed very important to a team.
But when the gap between the two teams is too big, factors such as willpower and spirit become very ridiculous, and it seems to be completely brainwashing by oneself.
No matter how hard an ant brainwashes itself, it will never be able to defeat an elephant.
At this time, Barnes spoke again:
"To take a step back, even if we cannot defeat the warriors, we cannot let others slaughter us. Even if we die, we must let the warriors shed a layer of skin."
"Even if we die, we will die standing!"
"Even though we know we can't win, we still have to try our best. Use up the last bullet. If there are no more bullets, we will fight hand-to-hand. If the bayonet breaks, we will fight with our fists and teeth!"
"In short, as long as we still have a little bit of strength, they won't be able to win comfortably!"
"Wang Yi injects soul into our Kings team - never abandon, never give up - that's not something we say casually."
His words were impassioned.
It finally ignited the passion in the hearts of all the Kings players.
Hilde's eyes seemed to be covered with heat mist.
His face was red and his ears were hot.
The hot blood in my chest was about to burst out like the magma of Mount Fuji that had been suppressed for 300 years.
The leader raised his fist and shouted: "Don't abandon, don't give up!"
All the other players were also infected, and they all felt that the blood in their bodies was flowing like a torrent.
They all raised their fists and shouted in unison:
"Do not abandon, do not give up!"
"Do not abandon, do not give up!"
"Do not abandon, do not give up!"
…
Head coach Walton felt that the blood in his body, which had been calm for a long time, was beginning to agitate like when he was young. He seemed to have returned to the days when he was fighting with Kobe Bryant in the Lakers.
In those days, Kobe always inspired everyone like this.
Those days are really nostalgic.
Ever since, he clapped his hands vigorously and shouted to his teammates: "Don't abandon your teammates, don't give up yourself, this is our Kings team!"
"Come on guys, Wang Yi brought us to the Western Conference Finals, now let's take him to the Finals together!"
As the referee blows the whistle, the game begins between the two sides.
On the jump ball, the Kings jumped hard to get to the ball.
Hield went forward at full speed and tried his best to score the goal.
But unfortunately, the talent is still lacking.
Green blocked the shot as he was rushed to the spot.
But then the Kings rushed for the rebound as a team, and Hield finally scored with a throw.
Looking back, when the Warriors served, Curry controlled the ball.
Barnes took the lead to defend Curry.
Without Wang Yi, he, who is the best defensive player, will have to defend the opponent's arrow figures.
And he leads the entire defense.
At the same time, Hield also came over and pressed Curry with Barnes.
Curry was a little confused.
Double-teamed right from the start?
And he was double-teamed right after the ball was served in the backcourt?
Is it so outrageous?
In desperation, he had to pass the ball to Tang Shen.
Hilde rushed towards Tang Shen like crazy.
At the same time, Mitchell also went all out to join Hield in closing down Tang Shen.
Thompson could only pass the ball to Green.
Mitchell rushed towards Green like crazy again, and worked with Bagley to press Green.
Green was a little panicked. After all, he didn't expect that the opponent would press him as soon as he came up.
So he made a mistake when passing the ball, and finally Holmes saw his passing route and intercepted the ball.
All five members of the Kings team immediately ran towards the frontcourt like crazy.
They don't run wildly like ordinary fast break players who move, intersect, and get into position.
Instead, he really ran like crazy.
It was as if a pack of wolves were chasing them.
In this way, almost all five of them ran ahead of the Warriors.
So there was actually a 5-on-0 situation in the frontcourt.
In the end, Mitchell scored with a layup.
Reggie Miller in the commentary box was stunned when he saw this scene.
"Today's Kings..."
Wade next to him added: "Crazy!"
"A full-court press from the very beginning? This was something the Warriors didn't expect at all, so the Warriors were a little panicked. Only then did the Kings seize the opportunity and score two points."
Warriors coach Kerr was still sitting there, as steady as a rock.
Although he didn't expect the Kings to press the game right from the start, it didn't matter.
Because he has been playing basketball for decades and knows basketball very well.
Chapter completed!
