Chapter 469 (1/2)

Los Angeles, Staples Center, the Lakers have lost hope again.

Howard was injured, Gasol was injured, so that now the Lakers can only play sacral as the starting center.

Robert Thackeray, 30th in the second round of 2012, was the last rookie to be selected. That's him. Today, he played in the starting lineup of the Los Angeles Lakers. It sounds magical, but the Lakers have been magic this season.

Thunder was 15 points ahead of the Lakers in the last minute, and the Laker fans started to leave. Kobe was sitting on the bench with no expression. No one knew what he was thinking.

Just then, a female reporter in the press area suddenly raised her arms and cried out excitedly. Her cry was evident even in the noisy Staples Center.

The female reporter hugged the photographer around her. Her excited look and the lifeless staples did not match.

”Rachel, calm down!” The photographer quickly reminded him that he had found several Laker fans casting unfriendly eyes here.

However, Rachel couldn't calm down at all. Because in her earpiece, she repeated the words of Herbie brown, ”shoot straight out of the three-point line, and the king of Tennessee has made this final blow! Now, he's the real king of Tennessee

Popovich felt a bout of angina when he watched link kill the game with an incredible three-point drift away from the line.

I don't know why Popovich covered his heart before link did. Maybe it was because he had seen link score too many critical moments before, so he mentioned that he had predicted his own destiny?

No, Popovich is one of the greatest coaches in league history, but he hasn't exaggerated his ability to predict the future. It's just that Popovich is nervous just to see link holding the ball at the critical moment.

The old man sat on the bench and looked around in disbelief.

Crazy cheering fans, bouncing grizzly players and coaches. And No. 0, who just stood in the middle of the field with his hands around his chest after the final game, is now held up like a king by everyone.

Popovich was impressed by the calm after link's victory. If link had killed off a lot of coquettes today, or made some exaggerated celebrations, he would not have been so shocked.

But after the killing, he could still face the fanatical atmosphere so calmly... Just like a proud King waiting for his subjects to cheer for him.

The king breath of link in the FedEx stadium made Popovich remember that picture clearly for a long time.

Lost, let link take 44 points, 10 rebounds, 5 assists, 1 steals 2 blocks, his defense strategy completely lost.

Lost, like Kobe Bryant when facing wade in the face of the elegant back to kill the game, his team completely lost.

For a moment, Popovich felt like he was back in 2004, the night when the white robed ”general” chopped down the Spurs in the last 35 seconds.

Although link's kill and McGrady's 35.13 seconds are not the same thing at all, they are also the victory that Popovich believes to be taken away.

By Howard, by Fisher, Popovich did not believe that the game won. So even if he loses, he can accept it calmly. But in 2004 and today, Popovich lost the game when he thought he would win.

Before the drift back, link had carried the Spurs all the way, had been blocked by Duncan, had cramped his calf, and had been disturbed by Parker's final attack rhythm. All the signs are that the Spurs will win.

What happened? suffer a big!

”Craig, can I have an interview? Craig

”Ah?” Popovich didn't come back from his trance until he saw a microphone stick into his mouth.

The old man's hair was messy and his suit was wrinkled, as if he had just had a serious illness.
