Fan Xi is not a prophet. Before anything happens, he can only analyze the trend based on past experience.

But reality is not static.

In Game 5, the Spurs defeated the Lakers.

Right in Staples Arena, right under the nose of the Lakers, right under the cheers of 20,000 Lakers fans.

Ginobili went crazy in the last minute. He staged a magical moment. He first blocked Chris Paul's jumper in the frontcourt...At that time, he let go of Kobe and rushed to defend Paul. This was a gamble.

Ginobili, the eagle from the Pampas, is the most gambling man in San Antonio. He often does things that Popovich disagrees with.

Popovich's mood also changed from 'fuck you' to 'fuck you'.

Ginobili made the right bet. He plucked Paul's shot from the air and ran to the frontcourt. Once again, he did not follow Popovich's instructions to press the pace. He directly shot one meter away from the three-point line.

Chasing and shooting a three-pointer.

Kobe's hands clapped to his forearm.

But, duh!

Basketball hit.

Later, he made another hit and added a penalty.

This offense and defense turned the Spurs from a losing situation to a tie with the Lakers.

At that time, the entire Spurs bench was in a state of excitement.

Subsequently, Kobe hit a mid-range jumper.

Then, Ginobili went deep into the penalty area. He attracted everyone to attack, and was stepped on his left foot when he turned around. But he turned around and passed the ball. Duncan caught the ball at the top of the three-point arc, and then Duncan hit the three-pointer.

point.

With 3.9 seconds left in the game.

The Spurs led the Lakers for the first time in the game.

Kobe failed to seize the opportunity at the last moment and the basketball bounced out of the frame.

The Spurs won this victory in a way that no one expected. It was a gambling victory.

After Fan Xi watched this game, his whole scalp was numb.

Ginobili is simply amazing.

The NBA often has such amazing moments, so the NBA also has a saying that basketball is round and anything can happen.

The Lakers lost Tianwang Mountain and were kicked to the edge of the cliff.

Kobe Bryant said viciously after the game: "We will never lose again. I swear!"

Kobe was very angry. According to media reports, he got furious in the locker room after the game and cursed almost everyone. Among them was Paul. He asked why Paul didn't give the basketball to him at the last moment.

In his opinion, Paul should have noticed that Ginobili ran over to help defend and that he was absolutely open.

Maybe it was because Paul felt that the Lakers' 4-point lead at that time was already stable.

But unexpectedly, Ginobili recovered four points in one attack and defense.

He is indeed a man who once led his team to defeat the Dream Team.

Fanci gave Ginobili the greatest respect.

As far as this game is concerned, he thinks Ginobili is the MVP of the game.

Now, all the pressure is on the Lakers.

If the Lakers don't even advance to the Western Conference Finals, then all their investment this year will be in vain, and the Galaxy Battleship they assembled with so many superstars will become a joke.

Fanshie is not in the mood to watch the Lakers' jokes, but in his opinion, if San Antonio enters the Western Conference Finals, the Clippers will be relatively relaxed.

Although the Clippers once defeated the Lakers three times in the regular season, the Lakers' upper limit of strength is higher than that of the Spurs, and the Lakers in the playoffs are not even stronger than the regular season.

The Spurs were able to play like this with the Lakers because of their regular season habit, their players' extraordinary performance, and most importantly because Popovich's tactical level is higher than D'Antoni's.

D'Antoni has never led a team to play such a high-level game. He is just a regular season coach, and he is an offensive coach.

If it were Phil Jackson who was in charge, the Lakers might even hope to advance 4:1.

If the Lakers turn around and win in the end, this will also be the key to the Clippers' victory.

Game 6 is back in San Antonio.

The Spurs have great ambitions. They want to win promotion at home in one fell swoop.

This is their home court, and it is also their advantage point to complete the battle. The right time and place are on their side.

However, they encountered the Lakers, who were strong and clear.

The Lakers completely suppressed the rhythm. They obviously have the most luxurious super giant lineup in the league, but they play more blue-collar than blue-collar.

They suppressed the Spurs' rhythm and played even slower than the Spurs. Every ball was worth every penny.

The temperament is completely different from that of the aristocratic Lakers, and they have a completely muddy style of play.

The game is very ugly.

The Spurs were crushed under the crazy confrontation.

Their physical fitness problems are serious.

In the end, the Lakers pulled one back on the road, 77:71.

The game was the lowest scoring in recent years.

Dreaming back to the finals between the Spurs and the Pistons.

Even Billups shook his head when he saw it. He said to Fanci: "This game was too ugly."

This was something Fan Xi didn't expect.

However, Fan Xi did not expect that the Lakers would reform inward to this extent.

For the seventh game, they returned to Los Angeles.

This game was a defeat for the Spurs.

The Spurs' physical shortcomings were fully exposed in this game. Duncan's movements were visibly deformed, and Ginobili was beaten until he was out of breath. The Spurs are aging seriously.

Moreover, they are different from the Clippers. The Clippers have many veterans, but the main lineup structure is very young. Fan Xi has targeted drills in the regular season.

This is probably why that old scumbag Popovich wants to plot against the Clippers and Lakers, so that they can meet early in the playoffs and fight to the death, so that he can reap the benefits.

Who knew that Fan Xi, who had broken out halfway, acted more covertly than him, and used his tricks to send the two of them to fight in the Western Conference semifinals.

93:79.

This is the score of Game 7.

Kobe fulfilled his promise. He did not let the Lakers lose in this series. They advanced as if they had overcome a disaster.

After the game, there were rumors that Phil Jackson, who had been living in Los Angeles recently, gave the Lakers ideas.

The media also photographed Jenny Buss visiting her ex-boyfriend Phil Jackson.

Photos are conclusive evidence.

But everyone did not believe that the old relationship between them had rekindled. After all, the Zen master was now old and his prostate had been removed.

The adults probably discussed some interests among themselves.

Interestingly, while the Lakers were celebrating their final victory, Popovich fanned the flames at the media conference after the game: "The result of this series was something I didn't expect. I lost because of my pride in myself.

And the oversight of Jack."

"Hey, Jack. As you can see, if you can't beat the Lakers in this situation, then... I will be very sad. Love you Greg."

Popovich finally winked in front of the camera.

This is his warm reminder to Fan Xi.

You can also say that he was just watching the excitement without taking it too seriously, igniting a raging flame for the most intense civil war in Los Angeles this year.

If we talk about the Christmas War, Fan Xi succeeded in revenge and the Clippers gained a firm foothold.

In the battle on the first day of the new year, Fan Xi came back to win and the Clippers moved forward quickly.

In the quasi-final game of the regular season, Fan Xi's butcher's knife showed up, and the Clippers were faintly fighting.

So in today's Western Conference Finals, the two Los Angeles teams will usher in a real life-or-death battle. This is the first time in history that these two teams have appeared on the stage of the Western Conference Finals.

They are going to decide the winner of this year's Western Conference.

At the same time, they will determine the strength and weakness of Los Angeles in the future.

Time Warner Television has made it clear to the Clippers that if you win this series, we will sign a contract with you for the next twenty years and accept the offer previously proposed by Fanshie.

However, Fan Xi said: "The previous quotation has been invalidated."

Fan Xi has a very clear prediction of the future basketball market in Los Angeles. No... is a definite answer.

The Clippers prospered and the Lakers declined.
To be continued...
