The Pope of Basketball Community

Yang Rui chatted with Christie for a while and told him generally what to say and cooperated with reporters.

If it were other role players, they might be worried that doing so would anger Kobe. If they were beaten during the game, they would be embarrassed and become a laughing stock.

Doug Christie has no such scruples. Even if he is really beaten, he is not afraid. On the contrary, he felt that facing an angry top scorer was very exciting and challenging, just like the pleasure of being whipped with a whip, which was so enjoyable.

As a hopeless "shaker", Christie's mentality is similar to that of a Chinese divine song. She brings her own BGM inside and outside the venue: Come on, be happy, you have a lot of time anyway...

After Christie finished chatting with Yang Rui, he went out and found a reporter he knew from the Raptors for a pre-game interview.

"I often duel with Carter and Tracy McGrady on the team, and my defensive ability has been improving. In the finals, I can guard Kobe to death one-on-one. He is nothing special." Christie's tone was high and his expression was like someone from The King of Comedy. Ng Mang-tat, who was in charge of lunch boxes on the set.

Yang Rui discussed it with the reporter, so the reporter asked an even more disgusting question: "Kobe was selected to the second team of the All-NBA Team. Many people think that his strength is not inferior to Carter and Tracy McGrady. What do you think?"

"We have played against each other many times, and it is much easier to defend Kobe. In addition, Houston, Ray Allen, Pierce, Eddie Jones, Michael Finley, Marbury, Iverson and others are also harder to guard than him. These people Some are good at breakthroughs, and some are good at catching and shooting three-pointers. It's not a big problem for Kobe to leave the three-point line."

In the previous meeting, a roomful of people were still discussing how to limit the Lakers' outside shooting. If they shrink to the penalty area, they can prevent breakthroughs and fear that the opponent will miss the outside shot. When guarding against O'Neal alone, Kobe was the one to be guarded against. How could he let him go short?

Christie laughed out loud after saying this. She was really convinced by Yang Rui. Who can figure out his false and true tricks?

Yang Rui did not accept the interview. He smiled and greeted the reporter: "I'll spare it. I've said enough before. I'll tell you my thoughts after the Raptors win the championship."

Too much is not enough,

If he talks more, the other party will know that there is a conspiracy, and people will become disgusted.

After the reporter left, D'Antoni asked: "Why didn't you say it during the meeting just now? Were you ready?"

"This news will be broadcast today and give Kobe one day to digest it. Tracy McGrady has a good relationship with him. Even if they don't call, they can still chat a few words on the Minions. If this is said in the meeting, he knows that the Raptors Regarding Kobe, if some information is revealed, the effect will not be so good." Yang Rui said with a smile.

Thibodeau's smile turned to his ears: "It's the finals, he shouldn't do this, right?"

"Who knows for sure? Maybe young people want a fair fight? In short, I don't want to see any surprises in a winnable game." Yang Rui said seriously.

Both of them were speechless. Yang Rui was a young man, but unlike those naive young people, he did not take the ordinary path.

They looked at each other and instantly understood the message in each other's eyes. Probably because this guy was an orphan and had a twisted heart, so he must not become his enemy.

ESPN radio organized 13 basketball experts to predict the outcome and compete in the lineup. Except for O'Neal, everyone believed that the Raptors had the advantage.

Six people predicted that the Raptors would win the championship in six games, four people predicted that the Raptors would win the championship in five games, two people predicted that the two sides would play in seven games, and the Raptors would win the championship. Only two people were optimistic that the Lakers would win the championship in seven games. One person is optimistic that the Raptors will sweep the Lakers and complete the feat of winning the playoffs.

Even those who are most optimistic about the Lakers don't think the Lakers are stronger than the Raptors. The tiebreaker is all about perseverance.

According to online predictions, fans are overwhelmingly optimistic about the Raptors, with an approval rating of 83. Even if the Lakers have a center like O'Neal, it will be useless.

Everyone feels that the Raptors have too much advantage, and having more players is an advantage.

The Raptors are hoarding insiders this season. In the playoffs, they have five big men over 21cm tall, two of whom are strong men weighing over 12okg. They seem to be able to restrict O'Neal better than other teams. At least he can withstand it and can commit fouls.

Another advantage is the schedule. Three more games were played in the Western Conference Finals, which ended late. The Lakers only had two days to rest, and the finals will begin on the 7th. With such a dense schedule, it is difficult for the Lakers to adjust to their state. Last season, the Raptors suffered a schedule disadvantage when they beat the Heat.

The Raptors players have been resting for a week, and they are full of energy and energy.

Many people say that the 232 finals schedule is unfair. As long as the team with home field advantage loses the first two home games, it will be in danger.

From this point of view, the finals have the away advantage.

But that's only theoretical. The Raptors have a greater chance of winning at home against the physically exhausted Lakers. Once they return home with an O-2 disadvantage, the Lakers' momentum will be seriously affected, and it will be difficult to win the championship.

How many teams with weak regular records can guarantee that they can hold on to three home games? Even if they win, they still have to go to the opponent's home court and win at least one game to win the championship.

The situation was not good for the Lakers, so the whole team did not dare to say harsh words and only said that they would try their best.

Coaches and players who are too low-key will also affect the morale of the team and even the morale of the fans because they appear to lack confidence.

Tickets for the finals have long been sold out. Starting on the 5th, the atmosphere in Toronto was like a festival, with many Vancouver fans coming to watch the game.

The Vancouver Grizzlies have been affected. They have been at the bottom for consecutive years and can no longer survive in Canada. The owner always loses money. Compared with the Raptors, they will not gain support from fans.

The advantage is huge, but the Toronto media still won't let go of the Lakers and want to gain a greater advantage for the home team. On the 6th, the sports station broadcast an exclusive interview with Christie.

Raptors fans are very happy. In addition to the stars, even the role player "Brother Dao" is so domineering and has a strong sense of presence. If Christie really guarded Kobe, there would be no suspense in this game.

When the Lakers learned the news, they were just depressed, especially those involved.

Although Kobe has yet to receive any outstanding personal honors, he is at least one of Jordan's successors appointed by Stern, and he was highly praised in 1998. Christie despised him so much that Kobe fans were furious.

How dare you look down on Kobe like this? According to your statement, he can hardly even be ranked among the top ten outsiders? You are going to die, Christisan!

Fans couldn't accept it and cursed Christie online, let alone Kobe, who had a strong self-esteem?

Kobe almost went crazy when he saw the news, and he couldn't vent his anger without doing something extreme. After all, the online scolding war is one-sided. How many fans does Christie have? I can't bear to be looked down upon by such a person!

Kobe now really wants to rush out of the hotel with two kitchen knives and chop everyone he sees, from Toronto to Vancouver for three days and three nights without blinking, and his eyes are not dry, because he is filled with Tears!

Even if there is a comparison, let's compare him with Carter and Tracy McGrady, right? Everyone is a star, who is Christie?

At this time, Kobe has secretly made up his mind. No matter what, he must be determined in the one-on-one match tomorrow. He will definitely beat Christie and let him know that O'Neal is not the only star in the Lakers.

He had no idea that he would step into a hole dug by others.
