Chapter 889 Forced to a dead end, the Fifth Primary School reappears
"I'll go, the headline has been snatched, eh, wait..."
"Holy shit! Ross is injured again?!"
When Wang Zelin woke up on the morning of the 18th, after washing up, he ate breakfast, turned on his mobile phone, and logged into the official website, ready to appreciate his heroic appearance on the headlines, only to find that the headlines had been robbed.
However, when he saw the shocking news that Rose suffered a back sprain and the Bulls lost to the Raptors in Game 7, he was not in the mood to make any headlines.
Even the toast in my hand became less delicious at this moment.
Should we say that Rose is too unlucky, or that everything is destined?
If I remember correctly, the Bulls in the original experiment were Rose, who could no longer tolerate the frequent season reimbursements due to injuries after the 2015-16 season, and chose to trade him to the Knicks.
Since then, the youngest MVP in history has had no choice but to start a homeless career!
To say it's a pity, there is indeed a part of it.
But as a latecomer, Wang Zelin naturally knows that although Rose's style of play is gorgeous and highly entertaining, it does great harm to his body, especially his knees.
To a certain extent, if the advantage does not change the style of play, it is destined to wither sooner or later.
It's just that this time, he regretted it even more when he changed from the perspective of a fan in later generations to the perspective of a current player and opponent.
After a while, Wang Zelin put down his phone, finished breakfast, and started a new day of training.
Yes, he does have a fondness for Rose, and this love comes more from later generations' appreciation of various highlights of Rose's health period.
However, one code equals one code.
His relationship with Ross was not as good as friends. After a brief period of exclamation and regret, his life had to go on.
At this stage, his primary goal is to lead the team to defeat the Warriors, and then establish a great dynasty that belongs to himself, all teammates, and the entire Portland Trail Blazers!
…
…
At the same time, on the Warriors' training ground, Steve Kerr was standing in front of all the Warriors players with serious eyes.
"We were absolutely beaten during the trip to Portland. If we lose another game the day after tomorrow, I need to say that all of you should also know what it means to be behind 0-3!"
"Guys, I know you all want to come back, and so do I. In order to achieve this goal, I decided to make some changes for the game the day after tomorrow, starting with the lineup."
"Stephen, Klay, Harrison, Sean and Drummond, you five will play in the next game. That's right, I decided to start the next game with a small lineup from the beginning!"
Kerr looked at the five people in front of him. After losing to the Trail Blazers in the last regular season match, Kerr came back and pondered for a long time before deciding to bring out his key to victory in the playoffs.
Speaking of which, Cole actually planned to move out of the five-small lineup in the last game, but Green's poor performance at the time made him hesitate.
Just when he hesitated, the Trail Blazers quickly expanded the score to more than 20 points. The morale of the players was completely lost, and the game almost lost suspense. In the end, he chose to return to the home court and send out another five players.
He didn't believe it. Returning to Oracle Arena and having the morale boost of the home fans, would Green dare to be as tough as in the last game?
As long as Green returns to his normal state and he rebuilds and completes the upgrade, the five small lineups can become impeccable!
Emmm, at least that's what Cole thinks.
…
…
So far in the playoffs, the Trail Blazers have experienced a 10-game winning streak.
Like the previous two seasons, they were unstoppable in the playoffs. Not only was there no team that could defeat the Trail Blazers, but there was no team that showed enough strength to block the Trail Blazers' path to the championship.
.
Last year, the Warriors won Game 2 of the Western Conference Finals at the Rose Garden Arena, home of the Trail Blazers, and then won two consecutive games, evening the total score at 2-1.
Although they were defeated by the Trail Blazers in three consecutive games and eventually lost the series 2-4. But at that time, many people felt that this was the Warriors' return to the conference finals after N years. The players were inexperienced and could not beat the defending champion.
Champions are also normal.
What's more, in the finals, the Eastern Conference champion Cavaliers lost even more miserably, barely winning a game against the Trail Blazers in G3, and then being swept by the Gentlemen 1-4.
The Cavaliers' performance is even worse than that of the Warriors!
Scored twice this season, the Trail Blazers and Warriors met again in the Western Conference Finals. After a season of painful lessons, the Warriors originally had high hopes this year, but during their trip to Portland, their performance was really disappointing.
Just as no one wants to be ruled by a certain person, the same is true in the NBA world. No team is willing to serve as the backdrop for the Trail Blazers to achieve three consecutive championships.
For this reason, they would rather this year's championship be the Warriors or the Cavaliers, as long as it is not the Trail Blazers.
As a result, the Warriors are about to collapse. Can they only count on the teams in the Eastern Conference?
Just when people were discussing whether the Trail Blazers could replicate the miracle of the 2001 Lakers in the early 2000s when they swept their opponents in three consecutive rounds in the Western Conference, in the third game of the series, Warriors coach Steve Kerr rearranged his troops.
, sent out a strange lineup that made a sudden appearance in the regular season.
In the third game of the Western Conference Finals, the Golden State Warriors will return to the Oracle Arena to compete. For them, this is a must-win game.
Based on lessons learned from past history, falling behind 0-3 is the end of the world for all teams.
To put it bluntly, in this situation, anyone can just go to bed as soon as possible. Instead of struggling, it is better to be realistic and prepare for next season in advance.
Therefore, the third game of today's series is also considered a life and death battle for the Warriors.
If they win, the Warriors can continue to compete with the Trail Blazers; if they lose, the Warriors can basically say goodbye to a season of hard work.
Before the start of today's game, people were still discussing how the combination of Greenberg and Gtt should cooperate better to limit Wang Zelin.
And when the Warriors' lineup came on stage tonight, everyone was stunned.
"What... what kind of operation is this? Steve Kerr actually chose to replace Andrew BoGt with Shaun Livingston! Next, Draymond Green, who is 2.01 meters tall, will be on top.
Position 5 is directly facing off against Trail Blazers No. 36 Wang Zelin!"
"Don't the Warriors want rebounds tonight? They actually fielded such a five-small lineup!"
"It's unbelievable. There is no center on the Warriors' court right now! There isn't even a serious inside man! I really can't imagine how Green and Livingston alone can withstand Wang Zelin and Ade's baskets.
