The game date is getting closer and closer, and there is a fighting atmosphere in every corner of Auckland City.
There are many investment elites in Golden State. These people are not short of money and they like to watch this kind of strong matchup.
The courtside of the Lakers and Warriors during the regular season was filled with countless wealthy people, and the playoffs were no exception.
Front row tickets for this game are sold at sky-high prices! !
That’s a price that even the middle class can’t afford! !
Watching the playoffs between the Lakers and Warriors has become a fashion in Golden State.
If you're not participating in the chat watching this Western Conference Finals, you're missing out.
at the same time.
Supporters of the Lakers and Warriors also started fighting online and offline.
There are many fans who like Zhao Chen, but there are also many fans who like Curry.
Zhao Mi and Ku Mi are incompatible with each other, just like James and Kobe fans, who often confront each other. , this has nothing to do with Zhao Chenkuli’s personal relationship.
...........
On the Hupu forum, posts about the matchups between the Warriors and Lakers at various positions were found again.
"Point guard: Zhao Chen vs. Curry. Not to mention Curry is injured now. Even if Curry is healthy, he will still be crushed. There is no suspense in this position."
"Shooting guard: Kobe vs. Thompson. Although they are shooting guards, the two have completely different styles. Thompson's shooting ability is more outstanding, and he is younger, but Kobe has the experience bonus, and Thompson can only have a slight advantage in this position."
"Small forward: Covington vs. Barnes. Obviously, Covington is only 3D, while Barnes is more comprehensive. The Warriors have the advantage."
"Power forward: Randall or Tucker vs. Draymond Green. Green is the Warriors' core organizer and key defensive figure. Randall is just a rookie. Tucker is too short. In this comparison, the Lakers are obviously at a disadvantage. "
"Center: Jokic vs. Bogut. Jokic has better support ability, but it is difficult for him to score on Bogut. Bogut's defensive experience and cover are the Warriors' big killers. This position is also the Warriors' advantage. .”
"Comparing the substitutes, Iguodala and Livingston have a balanced offense and defense. The Lakers' substitutes are just a group of mostly rookie players. This aspect is also where the Warriors have the advantage."
"Based on the above analysis, the Lakers are at a disadvantage in all aspects except Zhao Chen. In this series, Zhao Chen will be a super general and score crazy data, but in the end the Lakers will lose this series!"
As soon as the post came out, it received crazy messages from Lakers fans and Warriors fans.
Lakers fan: "According to this analysis, the Lakers should not be able to win a game in the regular season, but the result was 3 to 1."
Warriors fan: "It's no use Zhao Chen's awesomeness, the game is still for 5 people."
Lakers fan: "Don't forget, sir, Curry is injured. Curry is very important to the Warriors system. Of course, even if he is not injured, Zhao Chen will beat him."
Warriors fans: "The Warriors have all the conditions to win the championship, and the Lakers will eventually become a stepping stone."
.....
Fans from both sides started a new round of scolding war on the Internet.
On the global Internet, topics about the matchup between the Warriors and Lakers remain high!
Fans of the two teams yelled at each other wildly.
The media and fans are increasingly looking forward to the start of this series.
After training the day before the game.
Bogut said in an interview with the media: "It is necessary to emphasize to the young rookies of the Lakers that the regular season is different from the playoffs. If they dare to come to the basket, I will slap them away hard. ! Especially Zhao, others may be afraid of him, but I am not afraid."
Bogut was not convinced by Zhao Chen, he was showing his toughness.
Bogut has his own little calculation. If Zhao Chen rushes in, even if he cannot block the shot, he will not hesitate to pull Zhao Chen down.
Hurt or hit? He doesn't really care.
This aspect was explained by my friend Zaza Pachulia.
Bogut said: "Whatever the scoring champion or MVP, in my eyes he is just a kid who has just played in his second year. He can't be called a rookie, but he is almost like a rookie."
The reporter asked: "What do you think of the three-point showdown between Zhao Chen and Stephen?"
"There's no doubt that Steph is going to win," Bogut said. "I know how strong Steph is."
Green said with a smile on the side: "We have made special tactical arrangements for Zhao, so that he can enjoy our intensity, haha!!"
Bogut and Green looked at each other and smiled. As if they had agreed upon it, they continued to use words to provoke Zhao Chen.
Reporters quickly spread the news to the Internet.
"Bogut and Green threatened to give Zhao Chen a good look. 》
"The Battle of Hu Yong" never lacks things to watch. 》
"This is destined to be a hot game!" 》
"Lakers players threatened that if the game cannot be played in basketball, then methods other than basketball can be played!" 》
Although Bogut is very good, he was also dunked by Zhao Chenqi.
Why should he provoke Zhao Chen? Who is he?
"The market is open, let's see how many times Zhao Chen can dunk Bogut?"
"Bogut really has a bad mouth. Zhao Chen is not on the same level as him."
"Now anyone can play in the NBA."
"Bogut, the biggest villain in the NBA, Zhao Chen should be careful."
In the locker room, Zhao Chen looked at the news reports, but he didn't care.
It’s very clear what Bogut’s character was like in his previous life.
"Zhao, you need to be careful, don't get hurt." Kobe said.
Kobe felt that this series was unusual.
Kobe didn't cause trouble, but he wasn't afraid of it either.
"If he dares to make any extra moves, I will destroy him." Randall said.
"Yes, if he messes around, I will mess around too." Grant said.
"Please stop moving." Zhao Chen instead advised his teammates to calm down.
...........
The comments between Bogut and Green were just a small part of the public opinion war before the game.
Players and coaches from both sides participated in the public opinion showdown before the game.
Cole said: "Zhao is excellent, but it is undeniable that in some games, he was protected by the rules. I think you all know what I am talking about. The league needs ratings, and Zhao's popularity is very good."
Cole guided the media to report on the referee's protection of Zhao Chen in some penalties while trying to avoid incurring fines.
Scott said: "We are aware of Zhao's strength. There have been many external attacks on him recently. We have always supported him. We also understand these attacks. This is also their fear of Zhao."
Zhao Chen also responded to Cole's remarks: "Coach Cole knows what he is going to say. I can only say that his remarks make me feel a little disappointed. His pattern is very small."
............
In terms of tactical arrangements, the Lakers have no obvious changes compared to the regular season.
It is still Zhao Chen's singles tactical position, creating one-on-one opportunities for Zhao Chen.
When defending, I mainly focus on the Warriors' outside perimeter, and let go of the inside offense a little.
Green and Iguodala's outside three-pointers are what the Lakers must focus on. Barnes' singles can also be appropriately encouraged, allowing Covington to defend Barnes.
In general, although the Warriors have a superior record and the first game is also an away game, the Lakers are not afraid of the Warriors in terms of confidence. Instead, they are eager to try and knock the Warriors off the road!
