Chapter 345 343. The Crucial Finals G4! (first update)
After the game, how did the media report the game?
The Bulls lost Game 3 instead of the Blazers winning Game 3.
As a big traffic player in the basketball world, the popularity of the Bulls' loss refers to the game they lost in the Eastern Conference Finals, as if it doesn't matter who won the Bulls.
Corvo, Wu Hao, Oden, three top players left the field with six fouls.
David Stern, who was staying in the hotel to watch the game, wanted to eat the referee alive, because he had to hold an official press conference after the game to explain the scale of whistleblowing.
Only 3 hours after the end of G9, the press spokesperson of the league and the leader of the referee team made an official explanation on the issue of whistleblowing in G3.
In order to avoid excessive interpretation of the field control by public opinion, they even explained the 18 fouls that the three were called in detail one by one, showing a full desire to survive.
The end result is getting darker and darker.
Let’s talk about Wu Hao’s foul before he was sent off. The referee thought that Wu Hao had moved. In fact, Wu Hao did stand up in advance. If he had to call it, he should call it Roy’s offensive foul.
But the game is over, and even if it is confirmed to be a misjudgment, it cannot change the big score.
Facing the interview, Wu Hao did not pick the referee's thorns, but blamed himself, "If there were no irrational fouls in the first five times, the last whistle would not determine the outcome of the game. In G5, I will control the number of fouls I have. "
Corvo then said, "Of course, I am the same, the responsibility for the loss is all on me!"
The Blazers did not cheer for the victory over the Bulls. Everyone saw the hope of reversing the situation, but the pressure doubled!
Oden had a total of 14 fouls in the first three games of the finals, which made Coach McMillan a headache.
Moreover, most of Oden's fouls came from grabbing offensive rebounds, and he couldn't give up the second attack opportunity because of fouls.
Both Bill Walton and Olajuwon gave Oden some advice, but some habits are hard to break, especially since he's been rebounding like this since high school...
The sinner of G2 became the savior of G3, and Roy's reputation instantly changed from CBA to superstar and the league's third shooting guard.
Regarding the media's betrayal, Roy just smiled and said nothing.
In the critical G4, the Portlanders showed more enthusiasm than G3, and the box office of Rose Garden set a new record.
In their view, as long as they win another game, the situation in the finals can be reversed.
But for the Chicagoans, winning or losing G4 will only affect the timing of the Bulls' championship.
Some fans even said, "We hope the Blazers can win another game, so that the Bulls can return to home to win the championship..."
Old Jerry threw up his hands in agreement.
After all, the box office of one game in the finals is not a small number for him. It is good to continue the tradition of winning six games. He believes that this Bulls is invincible at home.
The Bulls have no plans to bring the series back to Chicago.
In the opening game of G4, Oden jumped to the ball, Lao Na dribbled the organization, and the Blazers were very cautious from the first ball, patiently passing the ball to find loopholes in the Bulls' defense.
From the off the ball, Xiaojia has been fighting with Oden in the low post.
Jia's shoulders, elbows, and back are all covered with muscle stickers.
Because strength is not at the same level, just like O'Neill and Uncle Mu back then, Uncle Mu could only defend O'Neal with perseverance, and the same is true for Xiaojia.
Oden took the ball, Xiao Jia carried it behind, and Da Jia came over to double-team, and the two brothers made Oden into dumplings.
It was difficult for Oden to play the ball and returned it to Alder who was open.
As soon as the ball was shot, Oden subconsciously yelled, "Damn it!"
This pass was too random, and Wu Hao, who switched to Adelaide, used his speed to go around and complete the steal.
The Bull didn't deliberately speed up to counterattack, and Corvo walked slowly to the flank.
Slow is to make fast more deadly!
As soon as Corvo bent over, Roy's attention turned to Wu Hao.
The opportunity is only in seconds. Corvo suddenly accelerated and used Gasol's cover to throw off Roy and catch the ball at the top of the arc. He shot elegantly. The basketball drew a wonderful arc and entered the frame hollowly!
Roy's technology is the best of the young shooting guard generation, but it is two levels compared with Corvo's peak.
The level is one level behind, and the experience is not equal. Without the help of the home whistle, it is difficult for Roy to play the performance of the previous game.
After changing sides to fight again, Roy asked for the ball in advance and prepared to respond.
Corvo is staring at him, no matter what technique you use, don't try to get rid of me, sticking to Roy like a sticking plaster the whole time.
Oden gave Roy a pick-and-roll and pushed Corvo with his big ass. Roy got a momentary shot, and he made the shot, but Roy didn't have Corvo's self-confidence. up.
The more nervous the more cautious, the more cautious, the greater the pressure. Roy spent nearly 20 seconds, and finally gave the ball to Batum on the outside. Batum's shot was blocked by Ci Shiping!
Corvo looked at Roy in displeasure, "Are you still awake?"
The fatal injury of a shooting guard is that he dare not shoot. Anyone who sees an opportunity to score the ball is an excuse. The task of the shooting guard is only to score.
Roy wasn't as listless as before, and immediately turned back.
Corvo felt that this was the case. He asked for the ball, dribbled the ball first, and when he got to his favorite position, he singled Roy with his back. With a flicker, a lift, and a shot, the basketball flew into the hoop again with precision.
McMillan watched Kobe and Roy's offense and defense at close range. Roy's defense was still weak, so he called Roy to the sidelines and said in a low voice, "I need you to play aggressively, just like in G3!"
The whistle of G4 is different from that of G3, and the mentality of both sides is different.
Corvo beat Roy just to hold you down and make you realize that winning in G3 was just a fluke.
And the more Roy deliberately recalled his previous performance, the more restrained he played.
With this ball, Roy hit Corvo with his back. The moment he turned around, Corvo suddenly stretched out his hand. Very quickly, he was completely prepared, and slapped the ball away from Roy's hand.
In order to grab the ball, Ci Shiping and Roy collided into a ball.
The two fell to the ground at the same time, Ci Shiping pushed the ball to the middle circle, Wu Hao picked up the basketball before Lao Na, quickly dribbled the ball towards the Blazers penalty area, jumped, and succeeded in a one-armed dunk!
It was the first time Wu Hao made a Super Saiyan transformation in the finals.
The audience in Portland immediately silenced, after all, this is the celebration that appeared most times in this year's best shot collection!
Back at the Bulls' half, Roy hadn't stood up yet.
Ci Shiping was taken aback, "I bumped my cheek against his elbow, I'm fine, but he got hurt instead?"
Oden patted Roy's back nervously. Roy turned over and lay flat, then took a few deep breaths, and stretched out his hands for Oden and Ade to pull him up.
Seeing that Roy was fine, McMillan was slightly relieved.
It is indeed hard to come back more than ten days after the operation, but his body is too fragile, and it is an indisputable fact that he has not played a full season.
What all Portlanders are most afraid of is that Roy will fall again, because his nickname is about to change from Yellow Mamba to Crispy Mamba...
