Chapter 671: Knowing the shame and then being brave

After saying this, Billups stopped saying anything more, as if he was angry, he didn't want to arrange his tactics.

When Xiao saw this, he coughed.

Billups only took the tactical board, but the first sentence he said was: "Don, you go to rest."

Tang Shuai was stunned for a moment, and was about to say that he could still persevere.

"If you don't want to fall on the court, just shut up." Billups was not polite at all.

Tang Shuai was stunned for a moment, then nodded and walked obediently on the bench to sit down.

The other team members didn't dare to make a fart at this time. Billups was simply a powder barrel at this time, and whoever hit him would blow him up.

When he came back from the fourth quarter, Billups put Gasol on the court at the beginning.

When Cole saw that Tang Shuai was over, he was relieved to let Durant lead the team to play on the court.

Durant hit a difficult backward jump shot as soon as he came up in the fourth quarter, showing his outstanding touch.

And after the Lakers scored a goal with a bumpy and bumpy goal, he turned around and made another difficult three-pointer.

It seems that it is not difficult for the Warriors to win this game, or at least when Tang Shuai is not present, it is a foregone conclusion that they will open the score.

However, things are always full of drama. No one expected that Durant's three-pointer was the last goal in the first half of the fourth quarter.

Billups' rampage finally inspired the potential of the Lakers' substitutes. They knew shame and then bravely, not only fought hard on the defensive end, but also led the way on the offensive end, but they actually defeated the Warriors.

Durant wanted to stand up and score for the team several times, but under the Lakers' mad dog-style defense, he failed to make one. He occasionally had a chance to get good, but he was also destroyed by the Lakers' tough foul.

With 6 minutes left in the fourth quarter, the Lakers miraculously overtook the score.

This surprised Cole and the audience was very excited.

On the other hand, the Warriors suspended their main players and replaced them all. After Tang Shuai experienced an unprecedented rest, his physical fitness completely recovered.

The two sides came up to fight against each other, but the Warriors didn't take any advantage.

At the last moment of the game, a scene similar to the fourth game between the two sides reappeared. Curry, Thompson, and even Durant, who had been accurate throughout the game, wanted to stand up and open up the situation for the team at the last moment, but they all made a lot of tricks. In contrast, Tang Shuai's performance was still steady, and his scores were not stopped, and he just pulled the momentum of the game.

At the last moment of the game, the Warriors, who were three points behind, seized a chance, Green grabbed a crucial offensive rebound and immediately called a timeout.

After returning from the timeout, Durant gave Curry a pick-and-roll, making a fake move to ask for the ball to restrain the Lakers' defense, Curry used Green's pick-and-roll to make a nearly open three-pointer.

Before this game, he made 7 of 11 three-pointers, and he scored 21 points with three-pointers alone.

"Bang!"

However, sometimes the correctness of the front does not mean that every ball is accurate. He, who felt poor in the fourth quarter, failed to hit this key three-pointer in the end.

Noel jumped high to grab the key rebound, and then the two sides entered a free throw battle.

Although Noel made 1 of 2 free throws, Durant's strong three-pointer failed to hit, and the game was concluded.

When the final whistle sounded, the audience stood up together to send thunderous applause to the home team.

Relying on the extraordinary performance of the substitute group in the fourth quarter and Tang Shuai's consistent performance as always, the Lakers staged a good reversal in the last quarter and won the game.

After winning this game, the Lakers also dragged the game into the tiebreak.

The unbeaten and invincible Warriors into the tiebreak was probably beyond the expectations of all experts, but for the fans, they were unprecedentedly excited.

The Lakers are Tang Shuai's single core. At most, half of Gasol's is also a team with only 1.5 cores. How can it not be very satisfying to force the teams that are grouped into this situation?

During the post-match interview, Tang Shuai finally expressed his thoughts with the Lakers: "In the next game, we will reach the finals."

In the East, the Cavaliers staged a good reversal again. After falling behind 1-2, they achieved a four-game winning streak and won the game 4-2. They have become the champions of the Eastern Conference and are waiting for the winner between the Warriors and the Lakers.

When the game is really about to enter the tiebreak, the Warriors have become a team with more pressure than the Lakers.

For this game, both the fans and the players themselves are already quite satisfied. After all, at the beginning of the season, the team's goal is only to enter the playoffs.

But the Warriors are just the opposite. Since they decided to join F4, they have embarked on a path of "failing if they don't win the championship". They have broken the regular season record before and followed the script to sweep the playoffs in succession. However, now, they are forced into a tiebreak by the Lakers, and they are likely to lose. In this situation, even if they win the game, they are probably very different from the predictions before the season.

On May 25, US time, after a brief rest day, the Lakers went to Oakland to usher in a tiebreak battle between the two sides.

The finals of the Eastern Conference have ended, and this game has become the only remaining game in the NBA division final stage, and the attention it attracts is naturally all for the previous ones.

All sports stations in the United States related to basketball have broadcasted this game, and even in addition to China and the United States, many overseas TV stations have also broadcasted this game.

In this game, the Cavaliers even had a reserved game in Oakland. The entire team came to the stadium to watch the showdown between the two sides and see who their team will be in the next round.

The unified blue T-shirt on the scene also made the atmosphere full of atmosphere, and DJ was doing his best to mobilize the emotions of home fans.

However, the Warriors' players lost their usual kindness. Their faces were tense. Obviously, their pressure at this time was unprecedented.

In contrast, the Lakers, who are playing in the away team, seem much more relaxed, saying that they have changed, they have no psychological burden at this moment.

The result of this pressure is also obvious. The Warriors did not open their bodies at the beginning of the game. Not only did they frequently make irons in the offense, but they often made brainless mistakes. In contrast, the Lakers played with a decisive and conscientious manner. After the half-quarter, the Lakers seemed to have brought the fourth quarter of the last game to this game, and they actually led the home team 21-11.

The fans at the scene were stunned, and the Invincible Division's performance at the opening could not be worse.

"What's wrong with the Warriors? What's wrong with Clay, Stephen, Kevin, Draymond and others? Are they going to give the Lakers to the finals just like this?" The commentator on the scene couldn't stand it anymore and said bluntly.

"Let's relax, remember, we have nothing to lose. Put these thoughts behind us. If we really have to bear the consequences, that person is me, not you, do you understand? So don't think too much, remember not to think too much, and focus all on the court." Cole, on the bench of the Warriors, obviously realized the impact of psychological burden on the players and was constantly guiding them.

After all, Cole is a man who has experienced many finals. His guidance has reached the key point, and the pressure from these main players has been slowly released.

After the main players returned in the second quarter, the Warriors' f4 returned to normal levels, especially Curry, who once again played the protagonist of the savior, hit three-pointers repeatedly amid the cheers of the audience. By the end of the half, they had already chased the score to 47-51.

"jr, who do you think is more likely to be our next game opponent?" James turned to Smith, who was facing him at halftime.

"The Golden State people are still much stronger, but I hope to play against the Lakers." Smith said.

"You are really honest." James said with a smile.

"But the teams are not easy to play in these two games. I hope they will play more intensely so that we will have a greater chance of winning." Smith continued.

James smiled and said nothing, then looked at the field.

"We, we have a chance to compete for the championship, and now we are standing at this intersection, so guys, let's put out every point of your usual training, don't make mistakes, don't be impulsive, be desperate, be patient, we have a chance to win this game, we have a chance, man!" Before the second half, Billups continued to encourage the Lakers players loudly and continuously.

After returning from the intermission, the players on both sides adjusted their mental state to the best.

As soon as he came back, the Warriors took the lead in the shouts of home fans, f4 stood up one after another, with constant firepower, helping the home team to make the difference a little bit. When the half-quarter passed, the difference was widened to double digits again.

The fans on the scene were also moved by F4's lead and were so excited that they couldn't suppress themselves.

But soon, the Lakers launched a counterattack under the leadership of Tang Shuai and Gasol. The Lakers players all seemed to be fucking blood, completely hitting their usual 120% level. When they grabbed the frontcourt rebounds, they often grabbed two people together.

It was precisely because of this fighting spirit that when Durant and Curry were in the normal rotation and resting, they forced the scores to chase back little by little with the fans' exclamations.

There is no miracle in the world. It is the hard-working person who created him. If a miracle seems out of reach, then exponential efforts can achieve it.

The strength of NBA players may be very different, but most teams are much smaller in strength as imagined.

By the end of the third quarter, with Mike Dermott's magical buzzer-beating three-pointer, the Lakers tied the score.

In the tiebreak battle, the two teams presented a unique battle for the team. After fighting for three quarters, they stood on the same starting line again.

Now there is only one question that comes to the minds of all fans.

Who will become another team to advance to the finals.
