Chapter 326 On The Cliff
The Bobcats returned to Charlotte with an Eastern Championship trophy. At the same time, Li Ke also gained a lot in this battle.
There is no need to mention the victory of the game. In this game, what he gained the most was the series of reminders in the system.
"The host relied on its own ability to complete an outbreak in a desperate situation. The mission system was triggered because of this, and the mission has been issued - the journey of transformation!"
"Mission: Journey to Transformation!"
"Mission requirements: Rely on self-explosion, lead the team to reverse and win."
"Mission Reward: Trait: Transformation!"
"The task is completed, congratulations to the host, and you have obtained the trait: Transformation!"
"Transformation Realm: Trait, after entering Transformation Realm, the host will get an unlimited boost in a short period of time!"
"Triggering conditions: 5.8. A major competition or a life-and-death moment; [-]. The host's physical fitness has reached its limit; [-]. The host's own state needs to be adjusted to the best; [-]. After the above three conditions are met, the trigger probability is [-]%."
There are many hints, but for Li Ke, what he got is a trait called "transformation".
The reason why he feels that he has gained a lot is because of this characteristic called Huajing, which is very heaven-defying at first glance.
"A promotion without an upper limit... Speaking of the G5 in the magic game, is it an improvement without an upper limit?"
One night later, Li Ke still remembered the last quarter of the G5 game. He really seemed to have entered a mysterious and mysterious state, and he could directly enter with a random shot.
At that time, he still thought, if the state at that time was described by the system, what kind of explosion would it be?
200%? 300%?I'm afraid it's more than...
But one thing is for sure, if it is an outbreak of system blessing, physical fitness should be ignored.
Looking at it now, physical exhaustion is still a prerequisite.
"The promotion without an upper limit is too buggy, but judging from the triggering conditions, it is still very strict."
To trigger it, it must first be a major game or a life-and-death moment, which is easy to understand:
The regular season, strong matchups, and nationally broadcast games should be considered major games, and the playoffs should also be considered major games.
As for the moment of life and death, the game that must be won but is behind, that is the moment of life and death.
In this way, after a season, there are still quite a few games that meet the requirements.
Second, physical fitness must reach its limit.
emmm... Li Ke feels that he still has A-level stamina and shouldn't improve it any more.
When it comes to S-level, like this game, the offense and defense are all played on one shoulder, and I am afraid that they will not be able to reach the limit of their physical fitness.
Finally, one's own state must also be adjusted to the best.
The state here must be calculated regardless of physical fitness. Take this Eastern Conference Finals G5 as an example, Li Ke had already scored 38 points before his physical fitness was exhausted. This state is considered the best state.
But thinking of this, Li Ke turned into a question mark again.
"Damn, if I can score 38 points by myself in the first three and a half quarters, why do I need this transformation?"
But after thinking about it, this Transformation Realm is much better than his 38 points in the first three quarters.
It's a bit like Kobe's 81 points in a single game, 62 points in three quarters, or McGrady's 35 points in 13 seconds.
If Li Ke's performance of 38 points in three and a half quarters is considered an explosion in adversity, the state of Huajing provides the ability to create miracles in desperate situations.
All the above three points have been achieved, and there is only a 5.8% possibility of Huajing wanting to trigger it.
"Such a strict condition, I'm afraid it won't be triggered twice in a season..."
……
On the third day of the Eastern Conference Finals, in Game [-] of the Western Conference Finals, the Lakers swept the Nuggets with thunder.
In the end, they also defeated the Nuggets with a total score of 4 to 1 and entered the finals.
"Copy of 2008!"
As soon as the matchup in the finals came out, the media made headlines. The first choice was the so-called copy of 08.
In fact, in this time and space, the Bobcats seem to have replaced the Celtics.
A championship in 08, and in 09, due to the decline of core players and civil strife, they failed to continue to reach the finals.
A year later, they came back again.
Li Ke felt that what was more similar was that the Bobcats who came back from the fight were the weaker side before the finals.
However, whether the Bobcats will give the Lakers a wave of two consecutive championships like the Celtics in history, he feels that he still has to wait until the finals start to know one or two.
In this way, the NBA switched to the finals mode. The Bobcats returned to Charlotte and made a little preparation before embarking on the journey to the second floor again.
This time, their destination is Los Angeles, the city of angels.
On June 6, the day the Bobcats arrived in Los Angeles, the bleachers issued an article titled "How to evaluate Sheldon Lee's three-year career?" " article.
The article reads——
"The Lynx reached the finals again, which means that the third-year Sheldon Lee has already entered the finals twice. In his three-year career, he only missed one year of the finals."
"LeBron James is known as the Chosen Son, but in his past 7 years of career, he has only entered the Finals once. From this point of view, the Chosen Son has already stepped into Sheldon."
"Not to mention, in the 08 finals, Sheldon led the team to break into it, and this year's finals are even more so."
"Look at Kevin Durant again, from the same university, the same draft, this season's playoffs, just KD's debut in the playoffs, they were eliminated in the first round..."
"..."
After a long speech, there is only one conclusion: "The real Chosen One should be Sheldon Lee!"
When Li Ke saw this article, he didn't feel very good.
That's right, although this is an article touting oneself, the touting before the competition seems to be a bit malicious.
So, on Facebook, Twitter and WeChat, Li Ke sent out a personal update at the same time——
"I am not the Chosen One!"
Unexpectedly, this has aroused heated discussions.
The reason is that an anonymous player suddenly blew himself up:
That's right LeBron James recruited me, just this year, just this month, just the other day...
Avoiding the question of whether I have accepted the recruitment, LeBron called himself The king in the recruitment, which made me feel a strong contrast...
The contrast is indeed very strong, although deep down, Li Ke also feels that he is the chosen one.
……
Preparations for the finals are in full swing. In the rented training hall, the Bobcats have already confirmed a set of tactics and formations against the Lakers.
Completely different from the three playoff rounds in the Eastern Conference, in the finals, the Bobcats must be replaced with the most conventional two-two and three-small lineup.
As a result, a starting lineup consisting of point guard Curry, shooting guard Li Ke, small forward Hua Laoer, power forward Kenyon Martin and center Jordan Jr. was released.
"Where is the Lakers strong? Kobe's indiscriminate singles from outside? No, Kobe just raised their upper limit. What really maintains the Lakers' lower limit is the three inside towers composed of Pau Gasol, Lamar Odom and Andrew Bynum."
This is the idea of the team's offensive assistant Amond Hill, and Li Ke also supports it.
The three towers of the Lakers are the most difficult.
Although Anzhu at this time is still a soy sauce role most of the time.
But at least, his presence has given the Lakers more possibilities for a variety of combinations inside.
In this era when big men are scarce, the Lakers have big men above three levels. This is the advantage of the Lakers.
For the Bobcats, the most difficult thing to solve is Pau Gasol, who will switch between the fourth and fifth positions.
The focus of the outside world, Kobe Bryant, is not the main problem.
Because Rivers feels that Phil Jackson has Kobe, and he also has Li Ke.
The problem is, no one in Bobcats can match Mrs. Jia...
On June 6, amidst all the attention, the finals kicked off.
In the star-studded Staples Center, the Bobcats will return to the locker room after warming up.
Rivers pointed at the people in the locker room and shouted: "Did you see the group of well-dressed movie stars, singers, and celebrities in Staples? They are all Lakers fans. They sat on the sidelines of Staples. Not only do they want to show their presence, they also want to see the Lakers win. They want Staples to turn into a huge party!"
"Can we make them do what they want?"
"cannot!"
"Never!"
Roaring out, but after the game really started, the Bobcats knew that the roaring at the beginning was of no avail.
The Lakers are very strong. At the beginning, they used the Koga pick-and-roll, which had been very effective before.
The constant pick-and-roll coordination near the high position, single block, split, another single block, and split...
Kobe didn't take many shots, but Jiasao, the high post, that is, the area outside the free throw line, succeeded in consecutive jump shots.
The Lakers' offense has been very smooth and smooth from the very beginning of the game.
Looking at the Bobcats again, at the beginning, they also tried Li Ku's pick-and-roll, hoping that through Li Ke's threat, they would drive Curry, who was a bit stretched in the Eastern Conference.
The result is of course that it cannot be brought...
Compared with the Magic, the Lakers have more experience in the playoffs.
The Zen master knew very well that Shanmao had only one strong point——Li Ke.
On Li Ke's point, Zen Master never thought of completely pressing to death, so he adopted a defensive strategy similar to Jordan's law.
For Li Ke, he only used Ariza's one-on-one defense.
For Curry, he replaced Kobe to pester him. For China's second child, he used the old fish to defend, and used the inside defense to help choke him.
The whole slide defense is messy, but effective.
Even against the Bobcats' Li Ku pick-and-roll, Ariza and Kobe's direct defense, they can also directly strangle Curry's offense.
In this way, not long after the game, the Bobcats' offense became a pure Li Ke's one-man show.
At the end of the first quarter, the Lakers took a 29-point lead with a score of 22 to 7.
Kobe had 9 points, Jiasao had 8 points, and Odom, who came off the bench, also scored 6 points. Many people in the Lakers blossomed.
Looking at the Bobcats again, Li Ke scored 11 points, the remaining 11 points, Curry scored 3 points, Hua Laoer 4 points, and insiders Jordan Jr. and Kenyon Martin each scored 2 points.
The score is also scattered, but the main score is too concentrated, which is not a good thing.
So, soon, in the second quarter, the Bobcats' problems began to erupt.
With the departure of Curry and Kenyon Martin, only Hua Er was left to accompany Li Ke to continue fighting.
The Lakers made decisive changes in their defense. In several singles, Li Ke encountered a pinch defense.
The pinch defense is Li Ke's nemesis. Handling the ball is his weakness. After the pinch defense, most of the time, he can only take shots against the pinch defense.
In terms of personal ability, Li Ke still has some. Although he encountered a pinch defense, his scoring efficiency was still above the passing line.
But the problem is, Li Ke handles the ball like this, and the Bobcats' offense is completely rigid.
At halftime, relying on the rotation of the twin towers and defensive changes, the Lakers finally took an 57-point lead 46 to 11 at halftime.
"The strength of the Lakers is beyond doubt. The Bobcats have no power to fight back. They can only rely on Li Ke, who scored 21 points in the halftime, to support himself."
In the second half, Li Ke continued to spare no effort, and the score became bigger and bigger.
At the end of the game, his physical strength began to dry up again, but "Huajing" did not appear as expected.
So, in the first game of the finals, the Bobcats lost the game with a score of 92 to 107...
"This is the end of the first game of the Finals. Even if Sheldon scored 43 points alone, it could not prevent the Bobcats from losing. Perhaps this season is indeed a season that belongs to the Lakers..."
In fact, before the finals, the Bobcats were only slightly underestimated.
Compared with the Lakers who swept 4-1 in the first round, swept the second round, and 4-1 in the Western Conference Finals, the Bobcats who swept the first round, swept the second round, and swept the Eastern Conference Finals 4-1 are actually in better condition.
But the first game of the finals seems to have exposed the Bobcats so-called better state of the illusion.
McBrin, who was sitting in the commentary, hit the nail on the head: "The west is strong and the east is weak, making the Bobcats look like the one in better condition..."
"But it's a real match, and the Bobcat doesn't look much better than the Thunder..."
……
The intermission in the finals was very long, and Rivers was struggling to think about a change strategy.
But there are only so many cards in his hand, change?Where can it change?
In this way, the final G2 battle began——
In this game, at the beginning, Rivers changed back to the first and fourth juniors. He used Hua's second son to fight against Jiasao, but the result was still the same, and ended in a disastrous defeat.
After falling behind by 5 points in the first quarter, Kobe suddenly went berserk in the second quarter, opening up a double-digit score gap.
At this time, Rivers had been forced to a dead end and threw out his five small lineups.
Although he knew that the fifth small group would end in a disastrous defeat, Rivers still used it. There was no way, he had no other way.
In the halftime, the five small lineups still had some effect, not on the defensive end, but on the offensive end.
Relying on the rapid attack speed, the Bobcats scored 54 points in the half, 54 to 59, 5 points behind.
The situation is a little better than G1.
However, the overall backward situation still led to the second half, and the Bobcats were gradually eroded.
In the end, with a score of 109 to 117, the Bobcats ended in defeat in the two games of the finals...
"2 to 0, the Lakers are going to win the championship!"
Steve Kerr took a deep breath, he could finally see the Bobcats lose.
But the Lakers' win didn't make him happy either.
……
On June 6, the Bobcats returned to their home court.
It was still Koga's pick-and-roll against Li Ku's pick-and-roll, a completely different change came——
At the beginning, Curry went in and scored a three-pointer against Kobe's interference.
This three-pointer was like a clarion call, and the Bobcats' Jedi counterattack began.
In the opening 5 minutes of the game, Curry scored three three-pointers, and Li Ke also gained more space because of Curry's accuracy.
The Bobcats' offense began to explode, and finally killed the Lakers in the finals.
Not falling behind at halftime, in the second half, even relying on a wave of three-point rain, they took a 7-point lead.
It was this 7-point lead that made the Bobcats kill the Lakers.
In G3 of the finals, back home, the Bobcats pulled back a victory!
……
But on June 6, it was still at the Time Warner Center.
Curry's state fell again, Li Ke broke out, and the score was anxious.
But in the second half, Koga fired at the same time, still taking away the victory in a wave.
With a total score of 1 to 3, the Bobcats stood on the cliff at the critical moment when the finals were about to return to Staples...
