1572 Advance to the second round

When Bond mentioned going to the line to defend, the Lakers' thick eyebrows are now old and can't keep up. And even if he can keep up, he is not as tall as Bond. Bond can easily shoot the mid-range shot.
So throughout Game 7, they were unable to solve the problem of Wang Yi and Bond.
Therefore, at the end of the first half, the Kings still led by 10 points.
However, in the second half of the third quarter, Wang Yi's physical fitness declined, and the Lakers suddenly felt better.
Two consecutive hits, three-pointers that they are not good at.
At the end of the third quarter, they tied the score at 77.
By the beginning of the fourth quarter, it became a tug-of-war between the two sides.
Both sides are gritting their teeth and going for a shopping spree.
For the Kings, due to the decline in Wang Yi's physical fitness, the success rate of pick-and-rolls between him and Bond also began to decline.
Arthur Wang of the Lakers always felt uncomfortable under the attack of Wang Yi and Danny.
If Arthur can't perform here, it will be difficult for the rest of the Lakers to perform.
As a result, the success rate of both sides has dropped, and every point gained seems to be very difficult.
Since the success rate was very difficult, both sides fought hard to defend.
That's real hand-to-hand combat.
Bond covered the entire penalty area like a cover in the paint, making it difficult for the Lakers to score in the paint.
And when Bond wanted to take action in the paint, the Lakers also deployed heavy defense in the penalty area.
If you really can't defend yourself, just pull, hit, or throw.
In the last three minutes of the fourth quarter, Danny hit Arthur's knee because he was working too hard on defense, straining the outer thigh muscle.
Had to leave.
In the end, the game was bloody until the last second.
The Kings relied on Bond's rebound at the last critical moment to cause Arthur's foul.
Bond made both free throws.
Finally, the Kings won the game with free throws.
In this way, Bond can be regarded as revenge for the previous attack.
The Kings defeated the Lakers 93:91.
The Kings were not optimistic at the beginning, but finally won this series with a probability of less than 2%. This news caused a sensation around the world.
Media from various countries rushed to report on it.
"Global Times": The Kings won the series against the Bruins.
"China Daily": With all the last bullets fired, the Kings beat the Lakers miserably.
"Tokyo Daily News": The Kings shot down the Galaxy Battleship Lakers.
Everyone seemed extremely excited for the Kings to beat the Lakers.
Today seems to be a carnival day for Kings fans.
But the Kings, including many Kings fans, were not as excited as they imagined.
Because the Kings lost their second scoring point - Danny Danny.
Danny has strained the outer muscle of his right leg and is expected to be out for at least 10 days.
Originally, Bond had just been activated by Wang Yi, but now Danny was injured.
How important is Danny to the Kings?
Before Wang Yi came back, Danny had always been the team's first offensive point, leading scorer, and also the defensive gate on the outside.
After Wang Yi came back, he became Wang Yi's most stable helper and the team's second firepower.
On the defensive end, he and Wang Yi limited Arthur Wang, and on the offensive end, he repeatedly contributed to the Kings with three-pointers.
Now without Danny, the Kings will definitely have a more difficult time facing their opponents, Zion, who is known as a bully.
The current Pelicans play a one-star, four-shooter system.
Zion guarded the inner line, and there was a circle of forts arranged around it.
If they are accurate in three points, no one will be able to gain favor in front of them.
In the first round, they relied on their one-star four-shooter system to easily defeat their opponents in just 5 games.
Now the Kings are missing an alien defenseman like Danny.
Defending the point makes it difficult to beat the Pelicans.
So on the night when the Kings won, many media and sports commentators couldn't wait to jump out and predict the results of the second round.
In their predictions for the second round, most believe that the Pelicans will win this series 4:1 or 4:2.
The main reason is that the Kings lack Danny, their second firepower.
Moreover, the Kings already have no one available. Without Danny, they really can't find a second small forward to take your place.
At this time, the Kings returned to the city of Sacramento, and everyone's emotions were not as high as they had been after they had just won Game 7.
Even though the team's general manager repeatedly encouraged the players, they had defeated the Lakers, which was a great honor and something to be proud of.
It would be a miracle for the Kings to beat the Lakers with this year's lineup, so they have already made a lot of money.
But the Kings players don't think so.
Under Wang Yi's repeated indoctrination, everyone has higher expectations. Several people think that following Wang Yi, their goal is to win the championship, like Tours, Danny and others.
Especially Rose, who may retire next season. Before retiring, he desperately desires to win a championship.
Although some people's goals are not that high, they still hope to advance to the Western Conference Finals.
After all, even the Lakers have already won, so their expectations are naturally higher.
But now without Danny, it may be difficult for the Kings.
But after getting off the plane, Wang Yi clapped his hands and said to everyone with a smile on his face: "Hey, be happy, guys, this is not the end of the world."
Everyone looked up at him.
Wang Yi then said: "What do you think of the Pelicans compared to the Lakers?"
Tours, who was next to him, replied: "Although they are very strong, they are still inferior to the Lakers."
Wang Yi nodded: "In that case, it doesn't matter if we give them a Danny."
Everyone was a little silent when they heard this. They knew that the boss was encouraging them.
Wang Yi smiled and said: "Hey, hey, don't cry. Without Danny, I have other ways. Don't worry, we will definitely destroy them!"
Everyone looked at Wang Yi when they heard this.
I saw Wang Yi blinking his left eye towards them: "Secret weapon."
All the players became interested one after another, and their mood was not as low as before.
"Boss, tell me what the secret weapon is?"
Wang Yi shook his head: "We can't say it now. If we say it now, it won't work. You will know when the game starts."
Everyone nodded after hearing this...c
The boss can always bring them hope when they are most desperate.
After the first round of competition, they are now more convinced of Wang Yi, so Wang Yi's words also gave them expectations in their hearts.
After everyone left, Wang Yi and An Jiali got into the car.
An Jiali couldn't wait to ask: "Can you tell me what the secret weapon is?"
Wang Yi knows An Jiali’s character, and if he doesn’t tell her now, she won’t be able to sleep all night.”
So Wang Yi told the truth: "Where is the secret weapon? I just want to give them a little hope so that they don't feel so depressed."
