I am so Accurate

Chapter 416 This City Needs You! (Continue to 8K! Continue to ask for a monthly pass!)

"No one, no one can do anything crazier than this!"

Barkley's exclamation in the commentary booth continued, and the sentence "Sun is God tonight" seemed to be far from enough for him.

Smith on the side wanted to remind that "Jordan once achieved the miracle of scoring 22 consecutive points in the game", but that didn't seem right, because Jordan's consecutive scoring was not in the opening game, and it was not in the playoffs.

Barkley's bragging this time is well-founded and convincing.

And the score on the court was 7 to 19!

The Pistons played for more than five minutes and were already behind the Lakers by as much as 12 points!

This is the biggest difference in non-garbage time between the two teams since the finals!

Sun Hao dominated the game by himself.

Some people may say that this is just the opening, there are 48 minutes in a basketball game, and a 12-point difference is nothing in the NBA.

This seems to be no problem, but it is not completely right, because it depends on the situation.

When the two teams are evenly matched, the difference of 12 points is not small in itself, not to mention that this is the beginning of the century, and this year's finals can be called a defensive battle.

And gaining this advantage in the opening game was a huge blow to the Pistons' defensive mentality.

And the psychological advantage the Lakers built with it.

Anthony held the ball in the frontcourt and changed his shot to a breakthrough.

This adjustment is very effective. Ariza's long arms are less effective in defending against breakthroughs than in defending shots, and he is relatively young and has relatively poor defensive experience.

Comparing Ariza to Prince is what Lakers fans look forward to, but Prince only has one.

Anthony broke through Ariza's defense, saw O'Neal coming over and quickly hit the board.

The choice of this ball is very correct.

But at this moment, a figure leaped over from the weak side and slapped his shot to the backboard!

Michael Finley!

Don't think I'm such an honest man!

After O'Neal got the rebound, the Lakers played a fast break. Sun Hao was double-teamed in the fast break and gave the ball to Ariza who followed up on the right.

Ariza stopped the ball outside the three-point line, took aim and shot.

"Shua!"

He made up for his mistakes and hit a three-pointer!

It's not just Sun Hao, and it's not just the instant kill combination. After establishing a psychological advantage, the role players of the Lakers have begun to perform well!

This also became the decisive factor in the battle of Tianwang Mountain.

The anxious situation predicted by the fans did not appear. Under the leadership of Sun Hao, the Lakers gained an advantage in the opening game and continued to expand this advantage.

At the end of the three quarters, they had stretched the score to 20 points!

Although the Pistons tried hard to counterattack in the last quarter, the reality was as Barkley described. God was on the side of the Lakers. Instead of shrinking the score, it was getting bigger and bigger.

In the end, the Lakers beat the Pistons 101 to 71 in the battle of Tianwangshan.

After winning this game, they not only achieved a 3 to 2 lead on a big score, but more importantly, they have a psychological advantage.

The unbreakable defense of the Pistons was completely broken by them this time.

That allows them to return to Los Angeles for Game 6 with incredible confidence.

Sun Hao is undoubtedly the biggest contributor to winning tonight, and he played the strongest battle of his career.

He scored 19 points in the opening game, contributed 24 points in the first quarter, and scored 45 points in three quarters!

If it weren't for the garbage time in the last quarter, he would have won the first 50+ in his finals career.

But such a thing as 45 points in three quarters in the finals is unique in NBA history.

You must know that even Jordan's highest score in the finals was only 55 points.

Many people may be curious about the highest score, Elgin Baylor's 61 points is also the worst in history without a championship.

After the game, the Lakers, who already knew the result, walked towards the locker room with relaxed steps after shaking hands with the Pistons.

Sun Hao didn't leave in a hurry, he waited on the field for a while, and after Scarlett came down, he kissed Scarlett in front of the media.

Sun Hao, O'Neal and Phil Jackson attended the press conference after the game.

"A great victory, an outstanding performance, does your performance have something to do with Scarlett's presence?"

The shots of Scarlett taken by the photographer before the game, and the kiss between Sun Hao and Scarlett after the game made it difficult for reporters not to ask.

"Of course, having her on the field is a huge inspiration for me."

Sun Hao's answer caused everyone on the scene to be fed a wave of dog food.

"I will buy all away tickets for Scarlett next season."

At this moment, O'Neill suddenly picked up the microphone in front of him and said.

"That way we'll be unbeatable away from home."

Under the curious eyes of others, he added.

Well, what Phil Jackson thought about during the game, O'Neal thought of it with him and said it in advance.

This statement also caused a burst of laughter from everyone present.

"Don't ask me why it's only an away game. There is Scarlett's exclusive seat at the Staples Center."

And what O'Neill added made this kind of laughter mixed with some envious applause.

Because of Sun Hao, this is really the favorite of all Lakers for Scarlett.

After the press conference was over, Sun Hao and O'Neal walked towards the locker room together.

"When are you going to marry Scarlett?"

O'Neal asked Sun Hao.

The matter of Scarlett and Sun Hao had already been discovered by the media when Scarlett frequently appeared in the US National Lineup Arena.

Not to mention acquaintances, even if they have formally communicated, it has been more than three years now.

Counting it, it was only four years since he and his wife Shani met and dated.

You can't talk about love for too long, after talking for a long time, marriage will eventually become a formality.

"Soon."

Sun Hao said with a smile.

"I have a suggestion, if we can win the championship, it will be cool if you propose on the night of the championship."

O'Neill's mind has always been active, and he's talking about things he didn't want to do in the first place.

Sun Hao glanced at O'Neill after listening.

When Scarlett brought the diamond ring before, what he thought was that he would use the championship ring to propose when the championship ring was issued in the opening game of next season.

Imagine substituting a championship ring for a diamond ring, the unprecedented approach would be particularly meaningful.

But what O'Neill said is also a solution.

After all, the intersection of Scarlett and basketball is also because of him. The meaning of the championship ring is not as good as the special moment of the championship night to some extent.

Two options, choose one of the two.

Seeing Sun Hao's reaction, O'Neill knew he would listen to what he said, so he reached out and patted Sun Hao on the shoulder.

"I look forward to seeing that scene."

Sun Hao nodded after listening.

These two plans spanned the entire offseason, but there is a common prerequisite: the Lakers have to win this year's championship.

After an 8-day road trip, the Lakers returned to Los Angeles with a 3-2 score.

There are still two days before the start of the sixth game, but the Los Angeles media are not idle for a moment, they have already blown Sun Hao's mind.

He scored 19 points in a row in the opening game and 45 points in three quarters. What Sun Hao has done is not catching up with Jordan, but surpassing him.

It's a pity that Sun Hao's surname is not Yang, otherwise he would have got a new nickname full of metaphysics.

Coupled with O'Neill's recognition of Sun Hao's status as the leader of the team, in fact, not only the media, but the city of Los Angeles is blowing Sun Hao.

On the streets of Los Angeles, you can see new graffiti, which clearly shows Sun Hao shooting a three-pointer or dunking.

You can even see that many cars have Sun Hao tattooed on them.

Basketball is not the number one sport in America, but it is in Los Angeles.

"The darling of Los Angeles" is the best description for Sun Hao now.

It can even be predicted that if Sun Hao helps the Lakers win another championship, his influence in Los Angeles will reach an unprecedented level.

The sixth game of the finals is highly anticipated.

The fans looked extremely excited when they entered the stadium in the evening, and many fans even wore the championship jerseys that the Lakers won the championship before.

"We will lift the championship trophy tonight!"

"Los Angeles will usher in a new era of basketball!"

"We have a G6 grandson, we will definitely win tonight's game!"

...

As the fans said, Sun Hao in G6 has never disappointed people. They are not only confident in this championship, but also in the team's victory tonight.

The Lakers players were very calm.

They still remember O'Neal's speech before Game 5 against the Mavericks.

To belittle an opponent before ultimately winning the game is to dig your own grave.

When the players were making final preparations in the locker room before the game, there was a commotion at the door.

When they all looked up towards the door, the person who appeared surprised them a little.

The people who came in were Kupchak and old Bass.

Old Bath's physical health was even worse than before, but his face was flushed now.

It can be seen that he is in a good mood now.

When he came in, he first shook hands with Phil Jackson, then walked up to O'Neill and Sun Hao respectively, and chatted with them for a while.

"Is Scarlett here tonight?"

What's more, what Old Bass asked Sun Hao caused the team members to burst into laughter.

Sun Hao was also a little embarrassed by what Old Bass said, and nodded with a smile.

"The Lakers team is the proudest part of my life, it was and it is now."

After greeting Sun Hao, Old Bass turned his head and looked around the locker room.

He obviously came tonight on a mission.

"You guys probably don't know how bad last year's loss was for this team, the whole league was waiting to see the joke, they'd say 'Look, L.A. is finally going to die', and even I thought it was going to be a tough one. It's a rebuilding period, but you've put everyone in the face, including me, and if it wasn't for that, Los Angeles would still be a championship team."

Sun Hao nodded while listening, firstly because it was the first time he heard old Buss come to the locker room to say these things; secondly, what Old Buss said was really not wrong, especially for him, a time traveler.

In history, the Lakers fell apart after the failure of F4. Although the old Bass said "I'm sorry, my child, I can only give you so much according to the regulations, but I hope you can understand that I really want to give you more" to keep Kobe. In Los Angeles, but after the Lakers, there was a long period of reconstruction and sinking.

Even during that time, the Lakers could only retain their last dignity as a giant by relying on Kobe.

If it wasn't for the subsequent robbery-style transaction to trade Gasol, I don't know how long this situation will last.

But when Buss Jr. brought Sun Hao to the Lakers last summer, everything has changed dramatically.

If the Lakers can really win the championship this year, then the discussion of the Lakers will no longer be about the reconstruction period, but how many championships the instant killing combination can win, and whether they can help the Lakers complete the match against the Celtics. The total number of championships surpassed.

In the current historical statistics, the Celtics rank first among all NBA teams with 16 championships, while the Lakers have only 14.

"You've shown all the qualities I know a championship should have, and you've beaten all of the best teams in history. Now you know the last step, and I look forward to seeing you finish it. scene."

Because of the background he said, he could fully hear the old Bass' expectations for this championship.

"When I came here just now, Mickey told me that you usually use a unique way to boost morale."

Old Buzz said, clenched his fists and raised them forward.

There was a cry in the locker room, and the players all stood up one after another, and then moved the ball closer to Old Bath's hand.

Old Bath led them to shout slogans in person, which is really meaningful.

"The Lakers Championship!"

Including Phil Jackson also came over rarely at this time.

Everyone's fists came together, and then they shouted out the most inspiring words.

Tonight, they will be champions!

The Staples Center is already full of attendance, and the fans look at the door of the locker room from time to time, looking a little impatient.

When the Lakers players appeared at the entrance of the player channel, there was a burst of cheers naturally.

The champion in their hearts, here it comes!

Stern also appeared at the Staples Center.

When the finals reach the match point, it means that there may be a championship award ceremony, and he will naturally come.

But sharp-eyed fans will find that Stern is missing someone.

Adam Mosaic, who had been following him in the past, disappeared, leaving only Tatum and another assistant.

However, this change is only clear to those inside the NBA headquarters.

Because there are always conflicts of opinion with Stern, and Tatum is increasingly reused by Stern, Mosaic has left the NBA after feeling that his future is bleak, and went to the NFL to work.

This kind of personnel change is not uncommon in the American sports industry. From time to time, there will be personnel changes among the executives of several major sports leagues.

Sun Hao didn't try to find out, if he knew, he would definitely be laughing happily.

Mosaic, the guy who succeeded Stern in the history, has ruined the NBA all over the place. It's a matter of great joy to turn around and harm the NFL!

Of course, he didn't have time to pay attention to these at this time.

When he entered the field, he carefully placed a bagged box under the bench, and told the staff behind him to look after it.

He has already made the final choice of those two options.

After the warm-up, the scene quickly entered the opening ceremony.

Both teams continued to use the starting lineup of the previous game.

After the opening ceremony, both teams started to play one after another, and the sixth game of the finals was about to start.

"beep!"

With the referee's whistle, O'Neal turned the ball back to the Lakers' half, and G6 of the finals officially started!

In the first round, Sun Hao and Ma Long played a pick-and-roll, and both Prince and Rashid pounced on Sun Hao.

This approach shows one thing: After experiencing the last game, Brown has tacitly agreed that Prince cannot guard Sun Hao.

So at the beginning, he gave Sun Hao a double-team VIP package.

Sun Hao is definitely the first one this season to allow this historically defensive Pistons team to do this.

Sun Hao gave the ball to Ma Long, and Ma Long broke through the basket with the ball.

But the Pistons took a more active defensive attitude than ever before, and Anthony, who was on the weak side to help defend, interfered with Malone's shot.

And when Malone's shot hit the frame, Big Ben struggled to hold O'Neal and asked Anthony to collect the defensive rebound.

Even Rasheed has returned to the basket with his long arms stretched out. Even if Anthony can't get it, he is sure enough to protect the defensive rebound.

When the Lone Ranger team was cornered, Kobe and Nowitzki showed their best form, and the Pistons are now showing the whole team!

At this moment, O'Neill took a breath and used all his strength to push away the big ben that was stuck on him, and after taking off, he directly made up the score through the big ben!

"Boom!"

The entire basket was shaken by the impact.

It's too late for Rasheed to grab it!

There was a burst of cheers at the scene.

O'Neal's performance at the beginning was very in line with their expectations!

After killing the Pistons in the last game, they wanted to see the Lakers win the game in one go!

"Shua!"

Looking back, Anthony singled Ariza head-on, and there were also emergency stops after the breakthrough!

Like McGrady breaking Prince's defense and Sun Hao breaking Prince's defense before, Anthony finally broke Ariza's defense in the most critical game!

Although Anthony's ability is relatively slightly worse, Ariza's defense is also worse than Prince's!

Sun Hao was double-teamed again, this time he didn't give the ball to Malone, but directly lobbed it to O'Neal.

O'Neal jumped up to catch the ball and leaned his back against Big Ben. He turned around and made a small hook before Anthony came to help defend him!

When O'Neal started to use technology without strength, Big Ben seemed helpless.

Saying that he can defend against O'Neal alone is actually the strength confrontation, and the rest is winning.

O'Neill is more restricted or depends on Rasheed's defense.

It's a pity that Sun Hao and Ma Long played a pick-and-roll, and Rasheed went to pinch Sun Hao.

Anthony, a three-threat pick-up washing machine, whirled past Ariza to the basket, and shot after confronting O'Neal.

Compared with Kobe, Anthony's weight is stronger against him, and the success rate of scoring against him at the basket is also higher.

"boom!"

But it turns out that Anthony was thinking too much. After O'Neal hit him and lost his center of gravity, he stretched out his hand and slapped the ball out of the field with a bloodshot.

brutal!

I don't know if it was the game point or what Bass said in the locker room before the game. O'Neal's state was so good at the beginning of the game.

Old Bass in the VIP box couldn't stop laughing.

Looking at the still raging big sharks, he felt in a trance that he had returned to a few years ago, when he was still very "young".

The Pistons sent a sideline ball, and Anthony missed the ball again.

There is only one Kobe, the kind of "you risk yours, I vote for mine" is not something everyone can do.

O'Neal took off the defensive rebound under the double-team of Wallace, then turned and threw them away.

The opening state of O'Neal is definitely the best since the series.

Well, Sun Hao and O'Neal had a pick-and-roll in the frontcourt. After the split, Sun Hao received the ball alley-in. O'Neal came out of the water with a shark and smashed the ball into the basket with one hand.

The atmosphere at the scene has exploded.

Is this an instant kill combination wheel battle?

In the last game, Sun Hao killed all sides at the beginning of the game. Is it O'Neill's turn to overwhelm the world in this game?

"Shua!"

Billups also made a three-pointer at the top of the arc!

And in the next round, O'Neal received the ball again, and Anthony had shrunk to the basket in advance to double-team.

This defensive method is a bit similar to the double-team tactic that the Spurs played against the Lakers before. The difference is that there is a time interval between the two double-teams, which allows others to defend by assisting in rotation.

When O'Neal passed the ball to Finley in the corner, Rasheed helped defend it.

Finley swayed and took a step forward to shoot, but Rasheed's defensive ability was too strong, and he came back from behind to interfere.

Finley missed the shot, Big Ben struggled to push O'Neal out of the penalty area, and Anthony grabbed the defensive rebound.

The Pistons advanced to the frontcourt. Anthony took advantage of O'Neal's return and the Lakers' defense was unheard of. He directly forced Ariza to the basket and caused the latter's defensive foul.

After Anthony made two free throws against interference, the Pistons overtook the score!

"Their spiritual attributes are very strong."

This opening also convinced the commentator Kenny Smith.

It is really rare for a team to lose 30+ to their opponents in the finals, but to get back to the game state immediately in the second game.

But that just goes to show how tough this Pistons team is.

"They had five Kobes."

Barkley then made a very vivid analogy with a slightly loud mouth.

This made both Smith and Johnson laugh.

But there is nothing wrong with this statement. Kobe here is an adjective, representing a strong spiritual attribute.

Then, after halftime, the two teams tied at 43!

The Pistons took their tenacity to the limit, and the same problems that had occurred on the Lakers side appeared again.

O'Neal played very well at the beginning, showing strong dominance on both ends of the offense and defense, but at the same time his physical fitness is also rapidly depleting.

And Sun Hao may have started to attack after a long time in the opening, or maybe the explosive performance at the beginning of the previous game was a bit degrading, and his performance in the first half was relatively mediocre.

He scored only 10 points on 4 of 9 in the half.

This kind of performance made some fans worry about whether Sun Hao would repeat his performance in the third game.

Their worries tended to come true in the second half.

The Pistons still defended against Sun Hao with high pressure, but against O'Neal, they appropriately reduced their defensive intensity.

Brown belatedly realized that O'Neal's physical fitness was a huge problem.

The Lakers were in a passive situation in this quarter, and to make matters worse, when the third and fourth quarters came off the bench, Stackhouse on the Pistons also started to fire.

At three and a half minutes into the fourth quarter, the Pistons had led the Lakers by 10 points 74-64.

At this time, Horry missed a three-pointer from the outside, McDyess grabbed the defensive rebound, the Pistons hit the Lakers with a defensive counterattack, and Stackhouse scored another 2 points with a fast break layup.

The Pistons played smoothly, and even had fast break layups, which they are least good at.

Phil Jackson reached out and called a timeout, and the point difference on the field has reached 12 points!

Speaking of which, this is a bit of retribution. In the last game, Sun Hao scored 19 points in a row to help the Lakers get a 12-point lead at the beginning. As a result, in this game, the Pistons got a 12-point lead in the fourth quarter.

There was a commotion at the scene.

With this score, the opponent is the Pistons again. It seems that the tiebreaker is already a nine out of ten thing.

But at this time, the game system is a good thing for them, because if it is 2-3-2, the tiebreaker will also be played at the Lakers' home court.

And speaking of the fierce playoffs this year, there has never been a tiebreaker. If there is a tiebreaker in the finals, it will be very exciting.

Back from the timeout, Phil Jackson replaced Sun Hao in advance.

O'Neal exhausted his energy and couldn't play early. Although Sun Hao's condition is not particularly good tonight, he can only choose to trust Sun Hao.

Just before Sun Hao came on the field, O'Neill stopped him.

"Don't forget what you are going to do tonight, what you have prepared."

Sun Hao was sitting next to O'Neal, and O'Neal knew exactly what he put under the bench.

Sun Hao nodded.

Just as he turned his head, O'Neill grabbed him again.

And this time O'Neill didn't speak directly, but looked at him seriously, and spoke after a while of silence:

"Los Angeles needs you, the city needs you."

Sun Hao was stunned for a moment.

Compared with the previous sentence, O'Neill's sentence is more touching.

And when O'Neal said this, he looked up and looked around.

Sun Hao also raised his head involuntarily.

Different from the state of full momentum and anticipation at the beginning of the game, the Staples Center seems a little quiet now, and the mood of the fans is more worried and lost.

Although, as they thought before, there is still a chance of a tie-break, and the tie-break is also played at home.

But that is already thinking of the worst of the situation, and then finding comfort in that worst.

If it is not necessary, who would want to do that?

And old Bath.

Old Buss was in poor health and took the initiative to go to the locker room to boost morale.

If Scarlett is only his personal matter, then all the fans around him are the city's matter.

Now O'Neal is limited by his physical fitness, and the rest of the Lakers are in a mediocre state. The only one fans can rely on and trust is him.

Or as O'Neal said, the city of Los Angeles needs him!

"I see."

Sun Hao threw away all his burdens at this moment.

He doesn't want to care about scoring efficiency anymore, and he doesn't want to care about the rationalization of his style of play.

He just wants to score now, because only by scoring can the team chase points.

After the first attack after a timeout, Sun Hao took the ball to the frontcourt, and Prince was still defending him.

Many future fans have made wonderful complaints about some teams in the playoffs with only 8 or even 7 players in rotation.

But this was a common phenomenon at the turn of the century.

Because a group atmosphere has not yet been formed, there are only a few players in a team that can perform in the playoffs, especially in the finals.

Like the Pistons, in addition to the five tigers, the remaining two rotations are Stackhouse on the back line and McDyess on the inside.

It is very common to play the whole court at this time.

Of course, Jackson is relatively less extreme, using an 8-man rotation, and Sun Hao will get some rest time during the transition from the bench.

Coming up now, his physical fitness is relatively abundant.

He glanced at Prince, and then directly chose a breakthrough after starting one step.

He has only scored 13 points so far, and he made 2 of 6 outside shots. This is really a rare game where he feels sluggish.

He didn't think O'Neill's words could make him regain his touch at once, and when he was just substituted, it would be too fantasy.

What he can change is his own determination.

So the hand feels bad, he has more choices, and he is more determined to hit the basket.

Prince didn't expect Sun Hao to be so resolute as soon as he came up, coupled with the exhaustion of physical energy, he didn't get stuck on Sun Hao this time, and was directly squeezed past!

McDyess made a save on the inside, and Rashid on the weak side also shrank back to the defense.

But like Prince, they all underestimated Sun Hao's determination to attack the frame.

Before Rashid, Sun Hao soared into the air facing McDyess.

McDyess, not Anthony, ducked after judging he was too late to block the shot.

"Boom!"

Amidst the wild cheers of the fans, Sun Hao smashed the ball into the basket with a single-handed tomahawk!

Even Phil Jackson couldn't help pouting and nodding.

This ball is domineering enough!

Although it was only 2 points, this scoring method brought back the Lakers' sluggish momentum.

Of course, the more important thing is that Sun Hao's game temperament is different from the previous three quarters.

The Lakers may still have a chance.

Stackhouse singles Christie in the frontcourt, and the emergency stop jumper with a breakthrough is very superstar style.

"when!"

It's a pity that that superstar may sometimes be Kobe.

Insufficient scoring stability means that it comes and goes quickly.

Anderson leaps high for the defensive rebound.

The Lakers advanced to the frontcourt, and Sun Hao broke through Prince's defense again.

But for a team like the Pistons, it is difficult for the same move to succeed on them twice in a row.

When Sun Hao broke through, Anthony on the weak side had already helped defend.

Sun Hao made a pass to the bottom corner... a feint!

Anthony was tricked back by him, and Sun Hao pulled back and confronted Prince for a layup.

Prince was also deceived by Sun Hao's pass just now, and he didn't stand in the best defensive position, so he could only fight with his body as much as possible.

But he once again underestimated Sun Hao's determination to attack the frame, and the impact directly sent him flying out of the bottom line.

He originally wanted to interfere with Sun Hao's shooting, but he hit Sun Hao's arm directly.

But this didn't have much impact on Sun Hao's shot. On the contrary, the bottom line referee's whistle sounded to signal a defensive foul.

"Shua!"

And Sun Hao sent the ball into the basket with a light pick after the confrontation!

After scoring the goal, Sun Hao stood motionless on the baseline, then reached out and beat his chest hard.

The cheers on the scene exploded in an instant.

After Sun Hao reappeared in this quarter, he made a breakthrough dunk and a breakthrough 2+1.

Although there is no familiar three-pointer, such a raw style of play is very exciting.

Of course, more importantly, they felt Sun Hao's existence.

When the city needed heroes, Sun Hao responded!
