This striker is not serious

Chapter 393: "Oh, this is really a medical miracle!"

There is still one day left before G6 of the finals.

After training that day, Lin Ying was applying ice to his fingers in the locker room.

Phil Johnson suddenly came in and called him, saying that Sloan was looking for him.

He stood up and left the locker room, walking along the corridor towards Sloan's office, when he suddenly saw Deron walking over there.

It seems that Sloan must have talked with Delong as well.

His mood seemed a little low.

"What's wrong? Coach Sloan scolded you?"

Lin Ying asked with a smile.

Delong glanced at Lin Ying, hesitated and nodded.

"Don't be sad, coach, it's for your own good."

Lin Ying patted him on the shoulder to comfort him, and then walked towards the office.

I just finished scolding Delong and I don’t know if he will scold himself?

Oh, Sloan never seems to scold him.

Open the office door.

To Lin Ying's expectation, Sloan's mood was not anger, but a little sad.

Seeing Lin Ying come in, he motioned to Lin Ying to close the door, then turned back and made Lin Ying... a cup of coffee.

Um?

Lin Ying was a little flattered. This was the first time Sloan had done this.

"That guy Delong just told me about the closure."

Sloan handed the coffee to Lin Ying and said something.

Lin Ying took the coffee with both hands.

At this moment, he understood why Deron's expression looked like that when he saw it just now.

Most likely, it was rejected by Sloan.

Think about it when Sloan was in the Jazz and suppressed Deron's playing time. How could he agree to Deron's career-ruining career now?

Thinking about the worst-case scenario, even if the Nets really don't win the championship this year, there will still be next year, and the year after that.

But if it is closed, Delong may fall as quickly as in history if he is not careful.

This is not only a personal loss for him, but also a loss for the Nets.

After all, Deron had just signed a 5-year maximum salary deal with the Nets.

"His isolation is not a good choice."

Knowing Sloan's thoughts, Lin Ying also expressed his own thoughts.

The two people have the same point of view, so there is definitely nothing wrong with what they say.

Sloan glanced at Lin Ying and finally nodded.

"Your hand?"

Sloane looked forward as he continued to speak.

Lin Ying also handed over his hand.

It's really as swollen as a carrot.

True to its name.

"I really want to give up G6, but we can't give up."

Sloan looked away and then said something contradictory.

Lin Ying nodded and understood why Sloan was worried.

He really wanted to give up because in his current situation, it would be difficult for him to explode like Tianwangshan again. He was afraid that he would still lose despite trying his best.

After all, there is only one gun left among the three guns on the outside. If all these guns misfire in G6, then G7 will take the lead and beat the Lakers.

I couldn't give up because of what Kobe said.

The Lakers were not demoralized by the loss at Tianwangshan. On the contrary, they came with determination.

If they give up G6, it will probably boost the morale of the Lakers.

Then in the tiebreaker, the Lakers will have a high chance of defeating the Nets in one go.

Morale is so crucial in a basketball game.

So Sloan has actually made the same decision as before.

"Coach, I said I will win this championship for you, and I will do what I said."

Lin Ying said.

Sloan looked at Lin Ying blankly.

This time his expression was different from last time.

It's not because of what Lin Ying said, but...

DeLong said the same thing earlier.

He suddenly remembered the last time he played against the Bulls.

That was a scene he could never forget in his life.

Obviously the Bulls were already in decline, but the Jazz still couldn't get over it in the end.

He often dreams about the scene when Jordan took the "last shot".

Maybe he understands something now.

He thought he lost to Jordan, but maybe he lost to the Bulls.

"I believe you."

Sloan said.

Lin Ying was startled for a moment, then nodded.

Although Deron can't beat him, there is still him, Chandler, Butler, and Iverson.

They will do it eventually.

…

On game days, the training sessions at Barclays Center were held by the Lakers in the morning and the Nets in the afternoon.

The Lakers came to train first.

A group of reporters gathered around.

Compared with yesterday, the Lakers' fighting spirit seems to be even higher.

Because Kobe did not accept an interview with the reporter, the reporter finally interviewed Gortat and learned why the Lakers' morale was so high.

"He (referring to Kobe) gave each of us a presidential watch. Man, you have no idea how precious that watch is."

Gortat wasn't exaggerating.

The so-called presidential watch refers to the Predent.Day-Date, which is the most collectible Rolex watch. One piece is worth 40,000 US dollars!

This round of gifts from teammates is 640,000!

Even for Kobe, this is not a small sum of money.

Speaking of which, when Kobe won the MVP award in 2008, he gave his teammates a Swiss Jaeger-LeCoultre watch worth $9,000.

In contrast, this time the "trench" has really reached a new level.

In addition to verbal encouragement, this is also the activation of the skill "Reward the Three Armies"!

However, it can also be seen from this that Kobe attaches great importance to this finals.

This fifth championship, whether it is for himself or for Jackson, he must win it!

…

Kobe Bryant's behavior for two consecutive days has made the outside world much more optimistic about the Lakers' championship prospects.

"Guys, I think the Lakers are going to make a comeback!"

Barkley cheered for the Lakers on TNT.

Because of past experience, fans are cautious about Barkley's remarks.

On the other hand, Kenny Smith's careful analysis is convincing.

He feels that the Lakers may not be able to defend the title in the end, but the possibility of winning G6 is very high.

The consumption from the previous game will not disappear within two days.

Now the paper strength of both sides cannot change. In terms of physical condition, the Lakers obviously have the upper hand.

And Kobe's desire to compete can also be seen at a glance.

This year is likely to usher in a tiebreaker in the finals.

That's something I haven't seen since 2008.

The same thing will be the Lakers and Kobe both times, which is worth looking forward to.

…

Nets training session in the afternoon.

Lin Ying met Delong.

Deron, doing shooting training.

Not only Lin Ying was surprised, but his teammates on the Nets were also surprised.

Of course, what was even more surprising was that Deron actually played the whole game together during training later.

When the training was over, Lin Ying pulled Deron to the balcony of the arena.

"What's going on?"

"What's going on?"

"You're out for the season, and then you're training?"

"Well, the team doctor said my recovery was much faster than expected. He said it was a medical miracle."

What a medical miracle!

Looking at Delong's expression, Lin Ying had probably guessed what Delong had done.

And he remembered the scene when he was chatting with Sloan yesterday.

Sloan seems to have never said anything about Deron not being closed.

Even what Sloan said in the end was "you" and not "you".

It seems that things are different from what he thought, and he has some preconceptions.

After all, other people's opinions are just for reference when it comes to whether to close the game or not. The final decision is made by the players themselves.

Just like Durant's last year with the Warriors in history, the final decision on whether he plays or not rests with him.

"Do you know what you did?"

Lin Ying's face looked very ugly.

He knew that he had no right to decide what others would do, but Deron's approach was really too risky.

"I know, Lin, I know."

To Lin Ying's expectation, Delong's tone was calm.

"Coach Sloan didn't dissuade you?"

Some things could be guessed, but Lin Ying couldn't help but speak.

"He persuaded me."

"Then why don't you listen?"

Lin Ying looked at Delong's knee and really wanted to pull out the sealing needle that was inserted into it.

"I convinced him."

"..."

"I said, I will win this championship for him, no matter what I have to pay. I made a mistake. This is my only chance to make up for it. I don't want to have regrets for the rest of my life."

Delong's words were very calm.

But for some words, the key is not the tone when you say it.

Lin Ying suddenly had nothing to say.

He even felt that his question was unnecessary and a bit ridiculous.

Deron is not a child, he has his own ideas.

Just like Paul did not close himself off and had his own things to consider.

Delong chose to be closed and had his own considerations.

People consider different things, so they make different decisions.

"Coach Sloan also said he could coach for one more year."

Delong suddenly said with a smile.

He was particularly moved when he heard this sentence.

"But I know that's unrealistic. If he hadn't been forced to do so, how could he have been willing to leave this arena before?"

"Is this really worth it?"

Lin Ying finally sighed and asked.

People can talk about feelings, but they also need to consider the cost.

The price is really too high.

"Isn't it worth it?"

What Lin Ying waited for was not Delong's answer, but a rhetorical question.

Lin Ying looked at Delong, as if what he saw was not Delong.

At halftime of Naa, Durant was stepped on by Noah, where he begged Rick Barnes to let him play.

Barnes is unwilling. As a head coach, he has the right to protect the future of his players.

But Durant kept insisting and even quoted what Sakuragi Hanamichi said in "Slam Dunk".

At the end, Barnes asked Durant a question.

"Is it worth it?"

Durant's answer is...it's worth it!

“We don’t live for money, right?

Like Coach Sloan said, we're already making a lot of money,

We didn’t say we have to play basketball for the rest of our lives, right?

Life is very long.

I know you do it for my own good, but I just don’t want to leave another irreparable regret.”

Delong saw that Lin Ying didn't answer, and then spoke.

Lin Ying pulled his gaze back, and the Durant in front of him turned into Deron again.

Deron is actually different from Durant.

He is not a momentary passion like Durant, but a choice he made after considering all the considerations as an adult.

"I was convinced by you too."

Lin Ying gave a bitter smile at the end.

"Otherwise, how do you think Coach Sloan was persuaded by me?"

Delong said with a silly smile when he heard this.

But he quickly put away his smile because he saw Lin Ying's expression suddenly became extremely serious.

"Your appearance has already boosted the team's morale, so don't try too hard."

Although there is a very high risk in closing down, this risk is not absolute.

Just like in history, Kobe and Curry also played in isolation, but in the end it didn't have much impact.

Maybe you can find out the difference between them and other players who have been ruined by isolation. They are all outside players.

Outside players have more room to adjust their playing style, unlike inside players and forwards who cannot avoid confrontation. As long as they don't rush in, the possibility of aggravating injuries is small.

Delong nodded.

Although he is ready to be enlightened, he will not make unnecessary sacrifices in order to prove that he is enlightened!

"You have done the best you can, leave the rest to me!"

Lin Ying finally patted Delong on the shoulder and said firmly.

…

June 18th is a day when future female compatriots will be excited and male compatriots will flutter their wallets after hearing this.

But that is the future, now for basketball fans around the world, today there will be a basketball event that cannot be missed.

After five fierce battles, this year's finals between the Lakers and Nets came to a match point game for the Nets.

Win this game and the Nets will aspire to the championship!

Considering the stability of the Nets' lineup, this may be the beginning of a new dynasty.

But Kobe's actions in the past two days are hard not to remind people of the possibility of the Lakers winning the championship.

All in all, although the main forces of both sides were injured one after another at this stage of the fight, the fighting situation was tragic.

But you still wonder who will have the last laugh.

Not to mention the scoring battle between Lin Ying and Kobe Bryant in the last game, which is still talked about by fans to this day.

Who knew that a scene like that wouldn't happen again?

During the warm-up before the game, Paul was wearing a suit and ties.

Sure enough, as reported in the previous news, Paul was reimbursed for the season and missed the next games.

However, when the live footage showed the Nets warming up, the fans' eyes widened.

Because they saw Deron warming up!

"He might just be itchy."

Barkley gave a very reasonable explanation in the commentary box.

There is nothing wrong with this. There is a rule that players who are not on the active list cannot play, but there is no rule that people cannot warm up!

The warm-up was about to end, and the commentary box received the pre-match rosters of the two teams.

"Did they get it wrong?"

Kenny Smith was stunned for a moment when he saw the list, especially when he saw the Nets' list.

Johnson also felt a little strange.

"Yes, they must have taken the wrong one."

Buckley said in a very positive tone.

After saying that, he glanced at the dates on the list. First his eyelids twitched, and then he felt an inexplicable tremor from the depths of his soul.

Even the fat on his body shook unconsciously.

June 18.

This list is correct!

By this time Smith and Johnson had already confirmed with the staff that the list was correct.

The looks in their eyes were so incredible.

Barkley wanted to laugh but couldn't. He could only point to Deron Williams on the list and said:

"Oh, this is truly a medical miracle!"

ps: 10 points out of 10, give this chapter a score!
