In G6 between the Lakers and Warriors, Popovich finally chose a style of defense that gave up offense after a painful decision.
This is not a case of Popovich subconsciously returning to his old profession when encountering difficulties.
This time, it was entirely out of necessity.
Now the Lakers' offense is completely unable to break through the Warriors' five-small defense.
But the Lakers' defense can be very effective against the Warriors' perimeter offense.
In the previous games, he had made many correct decisions and crushed all the Warriors' offense.
The only difficulty with this style of play is how to restrict Yi Jianlian, a big man in small ball tactics.
This is also the reason why the Fifth Elementary School is so invincible and powerful. If you are older than the Warriors, you will be beaten to death by the Warriors' Fifth Elementary School. If you are younger than the Warriors, you will be beaten to death by Yi Jianlian.
The Warriors' five small players can not only defeat the big players, but also kill the small players.
There is simply no solution.
Therefore, Popovich was really nervous when he started this game with Antetokounmpo, Ebanks, McAway, Wade and Covington.
He is indeed lucky that this lineup can kill the Warriors' perimeter offense, but he is not sure whether it can stop Yi Jianlian.
After the first quarter, the score on the court was 20-24.
The Lakers lead by 4 points.
The Warriors actually only scored 20 points in a single quarter.
Success!
Yi Jianlian went 4-for-4 in the first quarter, and the Lakers really couldn't guard Yi Jianlian.
But Antetokounmpo and Ibanks took turns to go around Yi Jianlian, limiting Yi Jianlian's catching to the extreme.
Also, thank you to Klay Thompson.
The Warriors guard was impatient in attacking. When he saw his teammates being guarded and the ball came into his hands, he attacked directly without any regard!
This is very confident, indeed a Kobe fan.
However, his mid-range shooting is not as stable and powerful as Kobe's. In the first quarter, he made 3 of 10 shots, 1 of 3 three-pointers, and 2 of 7 mid-range shots.
It can be said that Klay Thompson contributed a lot to the fact that the Lakers took the lead in the first quarter and his tactics in this game were successful.
If the Lakers really win this game, there will be a celebration banquet after the game. If Klay Thompson is not there, no one else on the Lakers can sit down.
However, Popovich also knows that success in the first quarter is only half the battle.
The game is not over yet, and it is not time to celebrate yet.
The second quarter is one of the keys to this game. In the last game, the Warriors relied on Kevin Love to shoot over 60 in the second quarter and scored 35 points in a single quarter. It can be said that the Warriors The second quarter of the team's last game was the key to bringing down the Lakers.
Because the Warriors played too strong in the second quarter of the rotation, Wade and Garnett had to stay on the court.
In the end, the two Lakers superstars couldn't adjust at all in the subsequent games.
He is already quite old and his resilience is not that strong anymore, let alone such a long and high-intensity game.
It's different now. In order to allow Garnett to have better output in this game, Popovich kept pressing Garnett until the second quarter before letting him play!
In the first quarter, Antetokounmpo and Ebanks consumed Yi Jianlian, and in the second quarter, Kevin Love was completely handed over to Garnett.
Love is very strong, especially when he leads a team with a single core. Although Kevin Love never succeeded in the Timberwolves, he led a team like the Timberwolves to almost always linger on the edge of the Western Conference playoffs. This is absolutely It's superstar level strength.
If you let a superstar like him work alone as a support and a shooter, it will definitely be a pearl in the dust, but if you let him lead the team alone and play the core, it is still very strong. At the very least, he just came to the Warriors this season and has not forgotten it. The way I used to play in the Timberwolves.
It is precisely because of this that Popovich was very cautious not to let Garnett face off with Yi Jianlian first, but directly went one-on-one with Kevin Love.
At this time, on the court, the rotation lineups of both sides have all taken the field.
Garnett looked at Kevin Love in front of him, and he was definitely extremely jealous.
In the last game, he was almost killed by Yi Jianlian and Love.
After Yi Jianlian finished, Le Fu did it, and after Le Fu finished, Yi Jianlian continued.
Even in his dreams, he had never been in a situation where two opponents of Yi Jianlian and Love's level took turns.
It almost broke his mentality.
In the second quarter, the Warriors kicked off first.
The five players on the Warriors court at this time are Livingston, Clay, Iguodala, Speights and Love.
After Livingston took the ball across half court, he immediately wanted to hit the ball to Love.
Love can play at the basket and shoot three-pointers from the outside.
The offensive zone covers the entire three-point line.
One of the best kite-type big men in the league.
Garnett, who was in a physical crisis in the last game, had been hesitating inside and outside, and was eventually killed by Love.
There is no problem with his physical strength now. Although he has not fully recovered after playing the last game, he is not afraid to chase after Love.
After Garnett followed Love out, the Lakers' basket was handed over to Antetokounmpo to guard.
Antetokounmpo, Pierce, Garnett, Seth Curry and Canaan, this is the Lakers' rotation for this game.
Except for Antetokounmpo, everyone can attack, just to attack!
Even Antetokounmpo can attack. Antetokounmpo just can't shoot. If others break down the Warriors' defense, Antetokounmpo can kill at will.
Popovich's calculation can be said to be very loud.
Just wait for Garnett to defeat Love.
Just wait for the Lakers' perimeter players to defeat the Warriors' perimeter players.
After Garnett followed Love out, it was difficult for Livingston to pass the ball to Love. To be cautious, Livingston passed the ball conservatively to Iguodala.
This kind of pass is a passing ball in a sense.
Iguodala couldn't handle it either. In fact, Iguodala wanted Livingston to attack Seth Curry himself.
Of course, his attack on Kanan is also an opportunity.
Kanan's height and weight are not as good as him, so Livingston's choice is not wrong.
It's always better than getting the ball into Klay's hands.
Clay kept asking for the ball, hoping Livingston would pass it to him, but Livingston didn't even look at Clay.
In the first quarter of the game, Klein was absolutely crazy!
Clay himself is quite confident. Wade, Pierce, and McAway are all paper tigers. When I pull them out, they shoot and shoot!
Klay has confidence, but his teammates don't have confidence in Klay for the time being.
Klay is not Curry. Curry has a pass button. Clay doesn't even have a pass button most of the time!
In comparison, Iguodala is definitely the team's bigger player, more star, and more capable in singles.
It can be said that Livingston's choice made Cole on the sidelines breath a huge sigh of relief.
However, Kanan's speed was excellent, and the confrontation was okay. Iguodala couldn't break through, so he switched to a fadeaway jumper. This attack finally struck gold.
"Kanaan's defensive intensity is very strong, and Iguodala's shooting is amazing!!!"
Seeing that the Warriors' first attack failed, teacher Zhang Lili on the sidelines exclaimed in surprise.
Everything is developing in a better direction!
Kanan's defense against Iguodala is not a good defensive choice. He can't even attack Iguodala. This shows that the fate of this game lies with the Lakers!
In sharp contrast to the excited teacher Zhang were the Warriors fans at the scene.
Warriors fans are very nervous right now.
Now it is the Warriors who are behind at home and being suppressed.
Now Iguodala is ready to hit the ball whenever he gets the chance.
Various hints suggest that the Warriors are very dangerous in this game.
On the court, Antetokounmpo grabbed the backboard and pushed directly without waiting for anyone.
Because Garnett was defending Love on the outside just now, Antetokounmpo's speed will not make Garnett feel uncomfortable.
It should be said that after Antetokounmpo pushed the ball into the frontcourt, the offensive rhythm was just right.
After Antetokounmpo brought the ball to the three-point line, Garnett had already blocked Love under the basket.
Catch the ball, turn around, and throw, all in one go!
The basketball bounced on the rim twice and finally fell into the net!
20 to 26!
The Lakers continue to widen the point difference!
Seeing the score jumping on the court at this time, the Warriors fans at the scene fell silent for a moment.
Even Cole on the sidelines had his eyes widened and gritted his teeth in the end.
The Lakers are coming!
Popovich, this old guy, has been prepared for a long time!
At this time, O'Neal on the sidelines was also complaining crazily.
"Love's turning speed is even slower than the 40-year-old Garnett!"
On the court, the Warriors continued to attack, and this time Garnett still stuck Love tightly.
But Love did not miss the ball this time. Instead, he returned to the basket from the three-point line. With the help of Speights' screen, Love blocked Garnett, received the ball under the basket, and faced Antetokounmpo. Bo's help on defense and Love's layup.
However, the second offensive rebound was grabbed by Love under the basket.
Love doesn't look that fast, and he doesn't jump that high. Logically speaking, Love has no advantage in this one-on-one competition for rebounds under the basket.
However, it is indeed incredible that Love was able to block Antetokounmpo and grab this one-on-one rebound!
only!
After Love grabbed an offensive rebound under the basket, he rose again and was blocked by Antetokounmpo from the side.
once!
twice!
three times!
What shocked the Warriors fans and the audience in front of the TV was that Love actually had three offensive rebounds in this round.
And Antetokounmpo next to him blocked two shots!
For the fourth time, Love wanted to continue to grab Antetokounmpo, but!
The basketball was taken away from the side by the returning Garnett, finally ending the amazing performance of Antetokounmpo and Love.
Garnett grabbed the backcourt rebound, and Speights counterattacked on the spot. Even if he didn't care about it, Garnett couldn't hold the ball for a long time. Garnett's passing threat was too great!
"Incredible! The Warriors are so afraid of Garnett getting the ball!"
"In the NBA, I've only heard of people being afraid of other people's offensive threats. I've never heard of people being afraid of other people's passing threats!"
"Garnett's performance in the playoffs this season is groundbreaking for the entire NBA!"
Facing Speights' pressing, Garnett didn't care at all.
A light dribble from behind directly passed Speights.
After Kevin Love, who was retreating, felt the exclamation at the scene, he subconsciously looked back and was shocked!
Garnett!
Garnett holds the ball and goes on a fast break! ! !
"This is the Garnett I beat so hard in the last game!!!"
"Is this Kevin Garnett with enough physical strength?!"
"Is this the same Kevin Garnett who was stuck in the past few games and couldn't move?!"
Love was stunned, as was Speights, who had just been passed by Garnett.
At this time, O'Neal on the sidelines shouted again.
"Not everyone can go around Garnett!"
"Not everyone is qualified to press Garnett!"
"Golden State Warriors, now, you need to consider whether to continue going to space!!!"
The situation on the court is so obvious, and Cole can definitely see it, so the question now is very big, whether to continue playing Yi Jianlian.
Although the third quarter had just begun, Garnett's ability exceeded Cole's expectations.
After passing Love and Speights, Garnett's front was smooth.
Due to Garnett's passing ability, other Warriors players simply did not dare to let go of Seth Curry, Pierce and Kanan, and could only stick to these three perimeter players.
As for Garnett, of course he doesn't care, waiting for Love and Speights to come back to defend.
Anyway, Garnett doesn't have the ability to shoot from the center circle or make long three-pointers.
It doesn't matter, let Garnett advance, let Garnett advance.
Love and Speights came back quickly.
The Warriors have no issues with defensive selection of players on the court.
but!
Just as the Warriors players on the court were waiting for Love to stop Garnett.
Garnett directly threw the basketball in his hand forward!
Damn it!
Many viewers in front of the TV were dumbfounded!
Even Love, who chased Garnett from behind, was dumbfounded!
Love had thought that Garnett would go toe-to-toe with Pierce because he saw Pierce moving out of the corner of his eye.
So he deliberately circled back from Pierce's side.
but!
Fuck!
Garnett actually chose a two-for-one rebound! ! !
Love never thought that Garnett would get past him in this way.
Not only Love didn't expect it, but defensive players such as Iguodala, Livingston and Clay, who are the Lakers' outside players, also didn't expect it.
In the end, I could only watch as Garnett passed in front of Love. After Love was passed by Garnett, he did not give up his defense and quickly turned around to follow.
but!
Love's turn around just wasn't fast enough.
When he completed his turn, he could only watch as Garnett caught the rebounded basketball!
Garnett's front becomes smooth again!
If it was an ordinary young player, he would definitely take the ball and go to the basket!
But this is a trap!
In such an offensive situation, the best option is to make a pull-up jump shot.
Because the Warriors' defensive players, except for Love, are all very fast. Even Love is actually not that slow, he just turns a little slower.
Sure enough, after Garnett took the shot, Speights gritted his teeth and returned to the basket from the side!
However, it wasn't Garnett who was waiting for Speights when he returned to the basket.
But the basketball shot by Garnett!
A swipe!
Hit!
20 to 28!
The Lakers are still widening the point difference!
After Garnett hit another hit, the Warriors fans were choked once again.
The live broadcast camera almost immediately focused on Yi Jianlian sitting on the sidelines.
The lens language is rich enough to tell stories directly.
Even the iron rod Yiheiyanghuahua was silent at this time.
After a while, Yang Huahua spoke.
"Everyone underestimated the defensive efforts of the United Arab Emirates in the past few games to make Garnett disappear."
"It's not that Garnett is old, it's that the UAE's defense is too strong and works too hard!"
"Without Alian, no one on the Warriors can stop the 40-year-old Garnett!"
"This season, the 40-year-old Garnett is still passing the ball. One of the greatest legends in the NBA, Kevin Garnett performed one of the most legendary playoff performances in NBA history!"
Of course, as a hardcore player, he would eventually turn to playing Garnett.
Moreover, Garnett's performance as a substitute in this game was indeed perfect.
Worth any words to brag about.
Now Garnett can no longer control it. The commentary and camera language on the sidelines are asking Cole if it's time to play Yi Jianlian.
At the same time, the fans on the sidelines were already shouting Yi.
However, Cole was still gritting his teeth and enduring it.
Can't go up!
If you want to win this game, you must not play, you must hold back, and you must not be dragged along by this old guy Popovich!
The reason why Popovich has been humiliated by Coach D is because Popovich couldn't help it and was dragged by Coach D!
I have to endure it. Even if I lose, I have to complete my game plan. Even if I am scolded by the fans after the game, I have to follow the plan and give absolute trust to the role players!
"Since I use them, I trust them!"
Cole didn't move. Even Yi Jianlian stood up on his own initiative, but Cole still didn't move!
See this scene.
Warriors fans on site, online, and in front of the TV are already in Ma Liang.
Phil Jackson in front of the TV, Popovich at the scene, and Du Kang all let out surprises.
The three famous coaches were surprised by Cole's choice almost at the same time.
Especially Popovich.
"This kid..."
In this series, Popovich was really surprised by the apprentice he taught.
Now I am not only surprised by his rebellious behavior, but also surprised by his growth.
How could he endure such a stressful game? !
The Warriors failed to succeed in two consecutive attacks. Iguodala and Love's attacks failed. This time, no one can refuse Clay's request for the ball.
After Klay pushed Pierce away, he finally received a pass from his teammate outside the three-point line.
Finally got a pass from my teammate!
When Clay faced Pierce, who was chasing him, he jumped directly from outside the three-point line without even thinking about it.
Seeing Clay's offensive choices, if Clay is accurate, of course there will be no problem.
However, when they thought about Klay's 3-for-10 shooting percentage in the first quarter, the Warriors fans at the scene cried.
There is no problem with attacking, but can you wait a little and make a fake move?
Is there really no problem with throwing it away like this?
Not to mention the fans, even Cole on the sidelines felt that he had some heart problems.
The assistant coach Gentry next to him even covered his heart.
If we lose this goal, we will be 10 points behind! ! !
This kid Clay is really brave!
My hands are so fucking hard!
Being a coach for these two guys, Klay and Curry, if you have a bad heart, you will be waiting for death!
With 10 minutes and 30 seconds left in the second quarter, Clay caught the ball and shot. Facing Pierce's defense, he forced a three-pointer.
Bang!
Blacksmithing!
Antetokounmpo grabbed a long rebound.
Lakers offense.
With 10 minutes and 15 seconds left in the second quarter, Antetokounmpo and Garnett were on a pick-and-roll. Facing Speights' defense, Garnett stepped on the long two-pointer from the three-point line and shot directly. Come!
Hit!
Garnett's offensive feeling is here!
20 to 30!
The Lakers' lead reached 10 points!
The Warriors' second unit looks like it's about to collapse!
When Garnett hit the long two-pointer, Barkley, who was wearing a suit and tie on the sidelines, jumped up excitedly.
Buckley couldn't move too much while wearing protective boots, but he could still twist his butt.
"Incredible Lakers, incredible Garnett, incredible Popovich, and incredible Cole! The Warriors are going to collapse!!!"
O'Neal was shocked that the second quarter of the game unfolded like this.
It actually became a personal show for Garnett!
After the last game, many Timberwolves fans were madly dissing Garnett, saying that the Timberwolves only have one wolf king, and that is Kevin Love.
This is a joke.
Playing with Oden and James.
Now in the Cavaliers, there is only one real emperor, and that is Oden the Great. What a king, what a little emperor, what a James, what a piece of shit, go ahead!
It can only be said that although he has been away for so many years, Garnett still has a lot of black spots with the Timberwolves. At the very least, not all Timberwolves fans have forgiven Garnett.
On the contrary, it is Love. Timberwolves fans are very generous to Love.
As long as you are not a fool or a white-eyed wolf, you will not hate Love's departure. If you hate him, you will hate the Timberwolves' shitty management.
He was scolding and suspected that the honest man Love was injured. In the end, Love gritted his teeth and went on to prove that he was not injured despite the injury. In the end, he was reimbursed for the entire season.
Love has proven himself and that he is indeed an honest person and a good boy.
It also proves that the Timberwolves' management is a bunch of shit.
If you were a normal person and encountered this bunch of bullshit, if you didn't leave, you would be disrespecting your loyalty.
Timberwolves fans were crying and begging Love to leave this bunch of stinking shit.
Love left the Timberwolves and brought super talents like Wiggins to the Timberwolves. In no way was he unfair to the Timberwolves.
Therefore, in the Timberwolves, Love still has a very high reputation, and Love is still one of his own.
Of course they were very happy to see Love beating up Garnett.
So after the last game, it was simply a carnival for Wolf Black.
But now, the Timberwolves fans in front of the TV are definitely not happy.
With 10 minutes left in the second quarter, Livingston faced Seth Curry's defense and turned around in the mid-range and fell back for two points.
Love blocked Antetokounmpo and grabbed an offensive rebound again. Love stole the rebound and Antetokounmpo got a block.
Antetokounmpo, who was beaten by Love, may have given up rebounding this time and blocked the shot.
However, Love's offensive rebounding in this second attack is really strong!
Antetokounmpo's gambling-style blocking is also risky.
After Love once again grabbed an offensive rebound, Antetokounmpo blocked the shot behind him and fouled.
Love made 1 of 2 free throws.
Finally, after 2 minutes of play, the fast was broken for the Warriors.
21 to 30!
However, the Warriors are still in danger.
Although Cole on the sidelines was already squatting on the ground, he still had no intention of replacing Yi Jianlian!
Lakers offense.
This time, facing Garnett's offensive threat, the Warriors chose to shrink, and Seth Curry got a chance to shoot a three-pointer.
However, Seth Curry, who had not attacked for a long time, felt a little cold.
There was a clang of iron.
This made the suffocated Warriors fans on the sidelines finally breathe a sigh of relief.
Even Cole stood up with a sigh of relief.
The Lakers' offense finally broke down.
However, the situation on the court at this time is still very dangerous for the Warriors!
Garnett is still the most terrifying presence on the court, a presence that no one can guard against!
With 9 minutes and 20 seconds left in the second quarter, the Warriors' Speights shot from mid-range. Although it passed Garnett, Garnett's interference from the side was still very strong.
At this point, everyone on the Warriors tried to take shots in the second quarter, but none of them hit.
Pierce grabbed a backcourt rebound.
With 9 minutes and 10 seconds left in the game, Pierce, who was on a fast break with the ball, compressed the Warriors' defense to the extreme, then passed the ball to Garnett outside the three-point line with a kick. Bates broke into the three-point line and shot a jumper. Speights, who was behind him, made a mistake and turned around and knocked over Garnett.
Garnett made two free throws!
21 to 32!
The Lakers' lead reached 11 points!
Still expanding its advantages!
With 8 minutes and 50 seconds left in the game, the Warriors attacked. This time Love finally missed the basket. Antetokounmpo, a beast, jumped too fast. He even grabbed six offensive rebounds in the second quarter. He just didn't score a single basket!
After Love received the ball from outside the three-point line, he shot a three-pointer directly.
Blacksmithing!
Turning around, Pierce of the Lakers received a pass from Seth Curry, pushed away Livingston who switched positions in front of him, and succeeded in a mid-range fadeaway jumper!
21 to 34!
The Lakers' lead reached 13 points!
At this time, the entire Oracle Arena was completely suffocated!
"It collapsed! It collapsed! The Warriors really collapsed!"
After the suffocation, the entire Oracle Arena was angry!
"If the Warriors lose this game and are eliminated, and if they want to find a war criminal, that war criminal must be Cole!!!"
"Substitutions are made at every turn. Cole is too rigid. Cole has too much trust in his team's role players!"
Just when O'Neal and Kenny Smith were scolding each other, Clay took action again on the court!
Bang!
Three-point strike!
Klay Thompson took the shot confidently and hit the iron again!
At this time, even the DJ of the Warriors at the scene couldn't hold back!
"Steve, how long are you going to pamper Clay!!!!"
Klay's three-pointer was not only terrible, but it also gave the Lakers a chance to counterattack!
Moreover, during the counterattack, the ball came to Seth Curry!
Watch Seth Curry pull up high from outside the three-point line during the counterattack!
At this moment, almost all the Warriors fans present had their hearts in their throats.
Even Du Kang clenched his fists nervously at this moment!
If Seth Curry hits this shot, then it will definitely be the shot that kills the game, it will definitely be the shot that kills Cole and the Warriors' confidence! ! !
Seth Curry knows this very well!
But he still pulled it out resolutely!
Seth Curry clearly knows how important this goal is to the Lakers and him!
In this series of duels with my brother, both of them performed very inconsistently. My brother was slightly better, but he also played more.
He is in the Lakers, and since the team no longer plays French basketball, he cannot take shots like before.
but……
"Seth, on my team, you can always take the same shot as before. It doesn't matter what style of play my team plays. You will always have unlimited fire rights on the court. As long as you feel you can If you shoot, you can shoot.”
"If Seth feels he can afford to play French basketball again, tell me and I will immediately change the team's style of play to French basketball."
up in the air.
Seth Curry's mind was filled with memories of Coach D smiling and patting him on the shoulder.
He thanked the coach for his absolute trust in him!
He also hopes that he can regain that absolute confidence, the absolute confidence in shooting that his brother has!
I don’t have the confidence environment that my brother had, where he was raised to be the pride of heaven.
When my brother was 10 years old, he dared to shoot the ball in the AUU national competition.
Even if my brother is faced with a terrible fate, even if he is rejected by a famous school, he still dares to stick to his basketball with confidence, confidently go to a not-so-excellent team, and lead this team to wreak havoc in the entire NCAA. He likes challenges, and he doesn't Afraid of any challenge.
"Seth, remember, basketball is life, and life is basketball. What kind of basketball you can play depends on what kind of life you want. If your life is just looking at other people's backs, then you are successful enough now. .”
Is my life just about looking at other people's backs?
No!
My life is about becoming my true self!
Two steps away from the three-point line, Seth Curry shot the basketball in his hand!
At this time, the entire Oracle Arena was suffocated once again.
Seth Curry is going to kill the Warriors!
Everyone could see it. Seth Curry deliberately shot from this distance to kill the Warriors!
Warriors players are trembling from the court to the sidelines.
Go in and the Warriors will die!
Even Yi Jianlian was ready to put his head in his hands at this time.
It feels like it’s very possible to get in!
but!
"Kevin, rebound!!!"
This sound? !
Love, who had stopped, almost subconsciously lifted his legs and rushed towards the basket again!
This is Curry's voice! ! !
Not only Love heard it, Seth Curry also heard it!
Seth Curry looked to the sidelines in shock!
Everyone looked at the two Curry brothers in shock.
Facing Seth Curry's gaze, Curry had a smile on his face.
Seth, if you are confident enough, you will definitely not take two steps outside the three-point line, but like me, take three steps outside the three-point line, or even shoot directly in the center circle with the logo!
Seth, in the end, you chose a centered choice. It was not the most conservative and unshakable three-point line, nor the most shocking and uncertain mid-circle arc. Instead, you chose a centered choice.
"Seth, you still lose!"
Seeing the smile on Curry's face, Seth Curry closed his eyes and clenched his hands tightly.
Apart from him, only his brother knew how...bad the move just now was.
No, maybe a coach too.
Coach, I'm sorry...
Bang!
Seth Curry wanted to kill the Warriors for the Lakers with this attack, and it hit the iron!
When the sound of blacksmithing comes!
The Warriors head coach on the sidelines, Steve Kerr, actually, directly, knelt on the spot! ! ! !
"God bless! God bless!! We are not dead, hahahaha, we are not dead!!!"
Oh my god, is Cole crazy? ! ! !
With the world in shock, Cole picked himself up from the ground.
"Substitute!"
"Yi, Stephen, chase your dream, come on!"
"We are not dead yet!"
