524 King VS Lakers, Battle of Tianwang Mountain
The bus drove slowly along the street.
In addition to the cartoon "Purge the Traitors and False Kings", there are many large posters on both sides of the street.
The above text basically says that the Lakers can easily destroy the Kings.
At the same time, there are many cartoons calling Wang Yi a traitor.
Although Wang Yi has defeated the Lakers once in the regular season, this is the playoffs.
In order to cause huge psychological pressure on the Kings and Wang Yi, almost the entire city is covered with such advertisements and slogans.
Even when their bus passed by on the street, pedestrians on the street kept shouting at the bus.
"Traitors deserve to be hanged!"
"You're going to die at Staples Center!"
"Traitor King, tomorrow night is your death!"
When Wang Yi was with the Lakers last year, Los Angeles fans were not so angry about the visiting team coming here.
Of all the cities, Los Angeles fans are the most moderate.
But this year, because they believed Wang Yi was a traitor, and people always have zero tolerance for traitors, they were very angry about Wang Yi leaving the king.
Even though the previous All-Star Game has proven that Wang Yi and James still have a good relationship, fans don't recognize it.
They are only happy when they see the Lakers beat Wang Yi violently and push the king to the ground and rub him.
However, on both sides of the street, fans can occasionally be seen holding Wang Yi's jersey and cheering loudly.
These fans are basically of Chinese descent.
Wang Yi couldn't help but feel secretly grateful.
We must know that discrimination against Chinese Americans is very serious in the West. If they hold up their jerseys here, it may put them in danger.
Sure enough, Wang Yi saw that when they raised Wang Yi's jersey, they were discriminated against, abused and even pushed by the black and white people around them.
But the only good thing is that Los Angeles is a big city after all, and the public security is slightly better than other cities.
When the Kings team's bus arrived, there were many police officers on both sides of the street to maintain order.
These people would not really attack these Chinese fans in the street.
Although these ethnic Chinese were subjected to discrimination, hostility and abuse, they still bravely held up Wang Yi's jersey and waved it towards the bus.
When coach Walton saw this scene, he couldn't help but turn his head to look at Wang Yi.
Sure enough, Wang Yi was seen secretly clenching his fists.
The fighting light in his eyes was strong.
Wharton couldn't help but wonder to himself: Don't they understand Wang Yi yet? What are the consequences of angering Wang Yi?
Meanwhile, at the Lakers training facility.
Thick Eyebrow showed James the picture of the Kings' arrival posted by a netizen.
James frowned slightly: "It's not good to anger that guy."
The thick eyebrow nodded: "So tomorrow night will be a very difficult battle."
…
When the Kings arrived at the hotel to stay, Wang Yi heard the few good news in the past two days.
Mitchell approached Wang Yi with his mobile phone: "NBA official Twitter message, you have entered the 180 club."
The so-called 180 club means that throughout the season, the shooting rate reaches 50%, the three-point shooting rate is 40%, and the free throw shooting rate reaches 90%.
That adds up to exactly 180.
Of course, there is a premise here, which is that you must hit at least 300 shots, 82 three-pointers (from the 2013-14 season), and 125 free throws throughout the season.
You cannot say that you are a member of the 180 club just because you made one basket, one three-pointer, and one free throw throughout the season.
Being able to enter the 180 club is a comprehensive reflection of a player's shooting ability.
In fact, at the end of the regular season, many good people had already calculated Wang Yi's shooting percentage and knew that he would definitely enter the 180 club this season.
It's just that there's no official announcement yet.
On the mobile phone, NBA official Twitter: Kings player Wang Yi, this season’s shooting percentage is 60.3%, three-point shooting percentage is 50.1%, and free throw shooting percentage is 92.8%. He has become the 10th NBA player to enter the 180 Club. Congratulations to Wang Yi.
In NBA history, only 9 players have entered the 180 Club.
Steve Nash, Kyrie Irving, Kevin Durant, Larry Bird, Reggie Miller...these familiar names are all members of the 180 Club.
And now Wang Yi has become the 10th member in NBA history to be selected into the 180 Club.
However, Wang Yi didn't pay much attention to these. He only glanced at the phone briefly and returned it to Mitchell.
"Our goal is the Western Conference Finals!"
Wang Yi still emphasized his goals for this season.
No matter how strong the opponent is, no matter how weak the Kings seem, his goal is the Western Conference Finals, which has never changed.
The Kings players looked at Wang Yi, and from Wang Yi's fiery eyes, they could feel the passion in Wang Yi's chest.
Wang Yi's gaze at this time was extremely contagious, making their blood boil even more.
"Western Finals!"
Mitchell first said with his fist extended.
"Western Finals!"
"Western Finals!"
"Western Finals!"
All the players had their fists clenched.
They bumped into each other hard.
When coach Walton saw this, he couldn't help but feel a little passionate.
Originally, given his status and age, he shouldn't be so easily excited, but Wang Yi always seems to have a magical power. As long as he participates in competitions, he can always make people excited.
If other people heard the Kings calling the Western Conference Finals at this time, they would probably laugh out loud.
Whether in the East or the West, among all the 16 teams that entered the playoffs, the Kings have the worst overall performance.
Although their core Wang Yi has super personal abilities, the other players are really too weak.
What is the team playing?
It's the whole.
No matter how strong you are, can you defeat someone else's team?
Now facing the Galaxy Lakers, if they can steal two wins, they have already burned a lot of incense.
Even if we get past the Lakers, there are still powerful Warriors, Suns, and Clippers in the West.
No matter which team they face, the Kings are absolutely weak, and not even a little weak.
Can they make it to the Western Conference Finals?
joke.
That afternoon, the Kings held a closed training session.
They mainly trained Wang Yi's long-range three-point play.
Since the Kings' shooters were all over the place in the last game, Wang Yi did not show off his long-range three-point play.
At the same time, in the third game, he had not used the Advanced Peak Jordan Experience Card obtained by completing the hidden mission.
With these two magic weapons, it shouldn't be difficult to defeat the Lakers.
In training, Wang Yi's long-range three-point shooting rate reached more than 70%, which made all the players' eyes widen.
At the same time, it also gave them full confidence in this style of play.
The next day at 7pm.
Kings players arrived at the entrance of Staples Center.
Wang Yi looked at the seven statues at the entrance of Staples Center, and finally stopped at the statue of Kobe Bryant.
Stared for a long time.
Chapter completed!
