The godfather of basketball started from conquering the NBA

"It doesn't matter, the Lakers will make history and become the first team in history to come back after falling behind 0-3 in the playoffs."

"Yes, I believe the Lakers will be done, and the Timberwolves will be the Lakers' high-quality student base. I always want to turn around."

"Westbrook is suspended for the next game, and the only advantage of the Timberwolves is gone."

"The Timberwolves won these few games because Westbrook beat the old fish. Although Fisher contributed to the Hummer for the Lakers, he is indeed old. Next season, the Lakers must add a young point guard. Guarded."

"I don't think we need to worry about the next game. We're going to win. We should worry about Game [-], going back to Minnesota. After all, Westbrook came back in that game, and Artest was suspended for two games. I can't come back to that game, and without Artest's restrictions, the Timberwolves' front line will be in big trouble."

"I'm a rational Lakers fan. I think the Lakers will come back with a 4-3 score. Reason 1: The Timberwolves don't have Westbrook in the next game. We must win.

2 The fifth game went to Minnesota. Although we did not have Artest, I believe that the league would not allow the Timberwolves to advance so easily, and the hopeless Kobe is trustworthy. He will definitely bring the game back to Los Angeles.

3 Artest paid for the sixth game, our home, the morale will be greatly shaken, so we win

4. Although Game 3 is an away game, we won [-] games in a row. The Timberwolves are all young players. Their mentality will definitely jump at this time, especially this kind of edge that has been nailed to the pillar of shame by making history, and we They are all old fritters who have experienced many battles, and they will only get better and better at this time, so we still win in the end.

Timberwolves are great, but this is not your time, sane Lakers fans stay. "

Seeing this, Xu Xiaoqiang closed the forum with a ninja smile. No wonder there was a meme about winning the championship 5-4 in his previous life. It seems that these fans really can't recognize them clearly and always live in their own dreams.

"It's also time to give them the coup de grace and bring them to their senses."

Lakers Management Office:

"I need a reasonable explanation." Old Buss asked angrily.

"This...I think you have to ask the coaching staff how they prepared. Our lineup did not lose to the opponent at all, but I watched the last game, and the game didn't follow our rhythm from the beginning... ..." Kupchak directly blamed the coaching staff.

Hearing this, Phil Jackson was not used to it either.

"I feel that I am not good enough and can be replaced. Our lineup is good, but the depth of the bench is not enough, and it is too old..."

"Then why don't you use young Bynum?"

"Didn't you see how you lost the first two games? How did Bynum get targeted?"

"Are you saying that the four-year Triple Crown lineup I created for you is too rubbish? Don't forget, last year was the original team, how did the team leader run away with his head in his arms."

"Is your mind always stuck in the past? You don't know how to improve yourself, and you can't understand the growth of others? Could it be that they won the championship last year, so they have to keep winning?"

The two are incompatible with each other, the needle point is facing the wheat, and they are trying to throw the blame to each other.

"Enough!" Old Bus couldn't bear it any longer, and directly blasted them out.

Their management is actually much wiser. They already know that the situation is irreversible. The loss of the Lakers is a foregone conclusion. They just hope that they can lose decently.

But Xu Xiao didn't want them to end decently, after all, he was often ridiculed at that time.

Since I have been soaked in the rain, I must have torn your umbrella, and you have to be humiliated like me to feel the same.

In the next game, Westbrook was not big, so Xu Xiao sent a very strange lineup.

Josh Smith is the point guard, Roy remains the same, and James Johnson, the cavalry who played a brave game in the last game, is used at the third position.

The inside line is still Ibaka and Oden.

But the Lakers are not feeling well. Apart from Artest, their only standard 5rd position is Walton Jr., the later Lakers "famous coach" was beaten so hard that he couldn't tell the north from the south within [-] minutes of playing. .

Therefore, the Lakers can only use the physically fit Shannon Brown to top the third position.

Although Brown still can't stand it, the Lakers can keep up with the Timberwolves' rhythm and can attack by themselves. Although they trailed by 11 points at halftime, they are not unable to play.

In the second half, Phil Jackson, who had a quarrel with Kupchak, suddenly made a wave of "big smart" operations.

Go directly to the top three, let Odom play small forward, and also play Garnett and Bynum.

This made Xu Xiao very happy.

Odom used to play small forward, but now he is really not suitable to play the third position. In the fourth position, he can use his flexibility to organize and shoot against those big men.

But when he switched to the third position, he couldn't keep up with the pace of the third position at all, and the defense itself was quite average.

Xu Xiao is just a pick-and-roll at positions 1-3, and the Lakers' defense is completely messed up.

Let Garnett and Kobe, the two top defenders in the league, can only be exhausted and make up for it.

After that, Xu Xiao didn't want to defend at all, and went directly to JR Smith.

Adding a little outside firepower.

A pick-and-roll with the ball and a screen without the ball were launched at the same time, and the Lakers died in place.

The Timberwolves hit a 40-19 offensive climax in a single quarter.

Jr Smith played a classic match with Josh.

Josh and Oden pick and roll, Roy slid to the baseline, and Jr took the opportunity to make an off-ball screen with Ibaka.

Josh looked at Roy on the same side, a fake pass fooled Kobe's defense, and then a Paul-style wrist-shaking pass without looking at the person, directly to jr who made an air cut.

jr caught the ball in the air and dunked with a 180° turn, completely turning into a Staples muffler.

Xu Xiao didn't know that his behavior was accelerating the disintegration of the Lakers, which made the conflict between Phil Jackson and the management even more irreconcilable.

By the fourth quarter, the two sides had no intention of competing and went directly to garbage time.

At the end of the game, the Lakers shamefully ended the season with a score difference of 88 to 121 and 33 points at their home court.

When the game ended, Xu Xiao straightened his body, stood under the spotlight, stood under the spotlight of Staples, and fulfilled his promise.

In 2006, Garnett was exchanged for Kwame Brown, and now in 2011, the Timberwolves have completed their reconstruction, defeated the Lakers in the playoffs, and advanced to the Western Conference Finals. Who would have thought of such a script?

After the game, Xu Xiao took the initiative to find Garnett, and the two sides hugged and saluted.

Garnett said slowly: "You guys are great, looking forward to next year's fight, come on, win that damn championship."

Although that's what he said, I don't know if Garnett has any regrets at this time.

If he hadn't been eager for quick success back then, but had chosen to trust Xu Xiao and cooperate with Xu Xiao, would the ending have been different?

Maybe I have been waiting for him for a year or two, and if he can really create a dynasty, then he is a well-deserved contribution to the dynasty and a symbol of the team.

There are not many Garnett fans in Minnesota today, replaced by fanatical admirers of Xu Xiao.

However, Garnett's choice was not wrong at the time, and he also won three championship rings. Although he is not the team leader, this does not affect his status in the slightest.

It can only be said that Xu Xiao made a deal that satisfied everyone, and now Garnett admires him from the bottom of his heart.

But he doesn't want to admit defeat now, he is not seriously injured, and he can still fight next year, maybe next year they will make a comeback to complete their revenge.

Xu Xiao finally untied his knots. These years, because of this deal, he has been burdened with too much infamy and insults. Now he is proud and elated, but he has also shed two lines of tears.

"Cool, so fucking cool!"

But Xu Xiao knew that his mission had not been completed, and defeating the Lakers was only a part of it. As long as he did not win the championship for a day, the doubts would not disappear.

So next, he must work harder, because the next opponent is the Dallas Mavericks, the NBA champion of this year.

This Mavericks team can be said to be the strongest Mavericks in history. They have both offense and defense and the team is particularly resilient.

It is no exaggeration to say that this year's Nowitzki is not afraid of any star in any season.

"It is not easy to beat the Mavericks. We must not underestimate them. Their strength this year is not weak."

"Haha, they're still stronger than the Lakers, but we're going to continue with the Lakers." Oden interrupted Xu Xiao's words, and said casually.

"Yeah, coach, I think you should study the Heat. The Mavericks shouldn't take them too seriously. Our opponent this year is the Heat. I can't wait to play against James."

Josh also directly ignored the Mavericks, his mind was full of the Heat and James.

Today's Josh, with Paul's ability, the only thing he wants to do now is to compete with James.

"Don't relax. A team that can enter the Western Conference Finals is definitely not easy. This Maverick is not as weak as you think. On the contrary, he is very strong, even stronger than the Lakers."

Looking at the relaxed expressions on everyone's faces, Xu Xiaocai signaled that something was wrong. The team members were too relaxed. This is definitely not a good sign. No one else knows how powerful this calf is. Xu Xiao knew it clearly. .

You must know that this champion of the Mavericks can compete for the most difficult championship in history. If you don't use [-]% strength to deal with it, it is impossible to defeat him, but now, in their eyes, there is no Seriously consider the Mavericks as an opponent.

"The Mavericks are strong? They should really be grateful to the Grizzlies for being able to enter the Western Conference Finals. If the Grizzlies hadn't given the Spurs a black eight, then our opponent should be the Spurs now." JR Smith and Bledsoe were very relaxed Said.

"That's right, and their No. [-] star Caron Butler has been reimbursed for the season, and now they only have Nowitzki left."

"That's right, their leading star, Nowitzki, is also known as a soft guy. I even dealt with Garnett. Dealing with Nowitzki, it's not easy, you just wait and see , Let's see how I deal with it in the next game, I won't make him docile."

Ibaka said arrogantly while showing off his muscles.

"It seems that I have nothing to say, only let you feel hopeless." Xu Xiao sighed, a little disappointed.

The Lakers are not his own demons, but also the nightmare of these players. They were ruthlessly swept by the Lakers for two consecutive years, which gave them some wrong perceptions of the Lakers.

Now that they have defeated the Lakers, they are full of self-confidence, but if they are too confident, they are conceited.

Xu Xiao shook his head. They might be in danger in this round of the series. In Xu Xiao's view, this year may be the end of the Western Conference finals, but that's good, let these young players have a long memory, and dare to underestimate them in the playoffs Others, this is the consequence.
