Today, there is no place to park near Staples. The parking lot outside the gym has been occupied by tens of thousands of fans.

They are all hardcore Lakers fans who have not bought tickets but are unwilling to watch TV at home. Outside the gymnasium, it has become a gathering place for these guys to revel in. They can watch the situation inside the court through the big screen outside the court. Maybe there are still a few lucky guys who can sneak into the scene.

They only have a purpose here to witness the Lakers win this difficult series and advance to the Western Conference Finals! They are so confident, because basketball enthusiasts all over the world know about Anjie's situation.

"What is the biggest variable in this game? According to reliable information, Anjie's current body temperature is still above 38 degrees 5. Now it's just an hour before the start of the game. Anjie's body temperature should not drop too much. Therefore, Anjie is the biggest variable in this game! Whether he can play is still unknown. Even if he can play, Anjie's performance is unpredictable." Yu Jia and Zhang Weiping anxiously looked for Anjie's figure on the scene. Now everyone is warming up on the court, but Anjie is not there.

"An will definitely play today. He is not the kind of guy who will take the initiative to give up the game. Even with a high heat temperature of 40 degrees, An will definitely play. The problem is that this is the most critical tiebreak final, and the Los Angeles Lakers are not an ordinary person. Even if An can play, how much help can he bring to the Thunder?" Kenny Smith also talked about this topic in T's studio.

With many questions and concerns, Anjie finally warmed up 30 minutes before the game started. Judging from the warm-up situation, Anjie's eyes were a little confused, and there was nothing serious about it. Now, all the Thunder fans have made a big sigh.

Half an hour later, when both teams stepped into Staples, the world was highly regarded by the Lakers, but this was taken for granted. The league's No. 1 shooting guard, an orderly locker room, the entire lineup with Kobe, and the wise champion coach are all the advantages of the Lakers.

And what about the Thunder? A main center who doesn't know how good it is, a point guard who is too young and reckless, and a forward who lacks blood. The current Thunder is like a graduate who has just stepped out of school facing a well-inspired industry elite.

However, in the second quarter, under the eyes of all Los Angeles, the Thunder, a "graduate", repaired the Lakers!

The Lakers have shown that Anjie has no problem at all. On the defensive end, Anjie is the solid shield behind Sevorsa, interfering with Kobe's cutting and jump shots. On the offensive end, Bynum has shown that he still has no advantage. Under Anjie's tough entanglement, he cannot assist in defending the penalty area in time. The only thing is that Anjie has made unexpectedly few independent attacks today! Most of the time, Anjie is helping his teammates to support or pick-and-roll. He occasionally plays a few goals, and his efficiency can only be said to be not too bad.

"Look at this guy, do you believe he still has a high fever now?? I can't see it at all. I can't imagine how to play in such a situation. But An did it, and he did it well!" After the yi quarter, the Thunder completely fired Staples. On both ends of the offense and defense, the defending champions were led by the nose. Anjie made 2 of 4 shots in a single quarter, had two free throws, scored 6 points, 2 rebounds, and 3 assists.

"That guy has absolutely any physical problems! I can feel that in the first quarter, he is trying his best to fight with me. The further the game, the bigger the loopholes will be!" Although Bynum was humiliated again in the first quarter, he knew that An Jie's physical condition was definitely a problem!

"Well! We will make more breakthroughs in the second quarter and continue to put pressure on the Thunder team's inside line!" The Zen master admired Anjie's perseverance, but for the sake of victory, even if he won't win, he would not refuse!

So, Bynum and Gasol began to defend Angel around the front, and the Lakers began to push the fast pace and continue to strengthen their aggressiveness. In order to achieve their goal, the Zen master did not hesitate to replace Fischer, allowing the "Spring Man" Shannon and Bolling to strengthen the Lakers' breakthrough.

Kobe used his experience and skills to create damage in the inside line and showed his power in the middle distance. Anjie's horizontal movement and jumping height are obviously not as good as the first quarter. In the past, the balls that could be blocked became blocking fouls. In the past, those attacks that could be blocked cleanly have become thugs today.

The Zen master’s policy is not wrong. Now everyone can see that the Lakers are taking the initiative to find An Jie to play!

In the past, Anjie was the point that others wanted to avoid the most, but today, he has become the focus of others' offense.

Van Gundy naturally would not let it go. He immediately replaced Angel with Ibaka and let Morris reach the center position. But even so, the Lakers gradually approached the score and completed the counter-attack before the end of the midfield.

In Staples, everyone is on and off the court. This is the game where the Lakers have a more dominant game. Now that Anjie has collapsed, the Thunder has no chance!

During the halftime break, many reporters asked Van Gundy about Anjie. Van Gundy just replied that Anjie was normal and the second half of the game will still be as planned.

That's right, but Van Gundy's anxious expression would not lie.

At the beginning of the third quarter, Anjie sat on the bench wearing a towel. He exchanged views with Van Gundy from time to time, but he seemed to have no problem with his spirit.

Just after a minute of the game, the rushing whistle ignited Staples again. Artest elbowed Durant in his attack, whether intentionally or unintentionally, but it is an indisputable fact that Durant's mouth bleeds.

Durant covered his mouth in pain, while Morris covered Artest's mouth. After being convicted of a foul, Artest was quite dissatisfied and kept mocking Durant for acting. As a result, Morris directly covered Artest's mouth and pushed the other party's yi.

The conflict was ignited. Who is Artest? The protagonist of the most notorious stadium violence in this century. In the playoffs, this guy dared to even Kobe, let alone a yi rookie.

Morris and Artest fought, but in just a few seconds, they were separated by the referee and the players on both sides.

In such a critical game, the referee was under great pressure. In the end, he gave Morris and Artest a malicious foul, and did not send anyone out. Although Stern implemented a zero-tolerance policy, he also implemented a whistle-oriented approach that made the game more exciting.

Durant can continue to fight, but under the rules of nBa, he had to temporarily get off the court to deal with the bleeding wound. The Thunder, which lacked Durant and Anger, was beaten up by the Lakers. Although the others worked very hard, did the Lakers not work hard? Did Kobe and the Twin Towers not work hard?

A few minutes later, Durant and Anger both returned, giving Thunder fans unlimited hope.

Angel's defense has returned to strength, and Durant's off-ball run and long-distance shooting have made Staples' fans feel heartbroken. With Durant's restraint, Westbrook's scalpel-like breakthrough also cuts the Lakers' chest.

In the first half of the third quarter, the Thunder tied the score again. Unfortunately, after Yi's timeout, Kobe opened fire. The two teams were in a hurry to play, and An Jie almost disappeared on the offensive end. Because of the high fever, he could only take care of Yi's side, either defending or attacking. An Jie chose the former because his dizziness really affected his feel.

It was only more than minutes before the third quarter was about to end. Kobe's breakthrough hit An Jie hard. Yao Ming felt a little sad when he saw this. This was the case last year, which led to his injury in the series.

Anjie fell to the ground, and Kobe "knocked down" a big Chinese man again. But Anjie was not injured, but he had a constant high fever and had a huge physical exhaustion, so it was difficult for him to stand up by himself.

An Jie was helped to rest for less than 30 seconds, and then he returned to the court after the next death ball. In the seventh game of the 1997 finals, Wesley Reed walked out of the player channel and walked to Chamberlain. The whole game was suddenly thunderous. Today, in the same critical game, An Jie slowly walked to Gasol and set off his defensive posture. Even the arrogant Los Angeles people gave An Jie applause.

Finally, both sides ended the third quarter with the same score. If the series between the Lakers and the Thunder is the most exciting series in the entire division semi-final stage, then this tiebreak battle is the most exciting Yi game in the entire series.

In the fourth quarter, the Thunder had not been dragged down. Nick Collison fell to the ground to save the ball, Sevorsa made three-pointers in a row, and Anjie also stumbled and made repeated free throws. The Thunder were in a very embarrassing and miserable manner, but they always kept the score close.

The Thunder played a game that shocked Staples. They used all kinds of methods to hug the Lakers' legs, allowing the Lakers to roll in the mud with them. At this moment, Anjie's head was already hurting, but he was still unwilling to give up. Even though every time he received Bynum's impact, he still held on to the point of not giving up.

An Jie and the Thunder made a choice that the outside world could not understand. They knew better than anyone else how much difference between themselves and the defending champion, but they were still fighting without hesitation. What are these young people for? Fighting for contracts? No need to. Fighting for the championship? It's very lingering. But it's just like this Thunder, using this almost rogue style of play, forcing the Lakers to play with all their strength.

They used front-range defense against Angel, continued to press against Durant, and double-teamed Westbrook. The Purple and Gold Legion no longer relaxed, they began to patiently grind the position with the Thunder, and Kobe began to rush to the Thunder basket desperately. The Lakers seemed to be saying: "You just made you lose easily, and now you can force us to get nothing."

The Third Young Master of Thunder played a whole quarter in the fourth quarter, and even An Jie was burning, he persisted until the end.

Such a 2-minute embarrassing and so important, the third young master of Thunder was defeated. Now they are only more than two minutes before the end of the game, and they are only 3 points behind the Lakers!

Resolute comes from trust, trust comes from the team. Barkley is right. The Thunder is just a group of young men who can't be killed. In fact, the Thunder almost died. If you give them a little more time, they will die. Of course, there is no need to say much. At this moment, he is soft and it is already very difficult to stand still. Durant and Westbrook have long been overdrawn under the "careful care" of the Lakers. The three young men were gasping for breath, waiting for the trial in the last two minutes. Wanyi, Wanyi and others seized the opportunity to turn the tables?

So the game came to the last two minutes, and the Thunder really died. Kobe scored several soul-stirring jump shots on the head of the overdrawn Thunder player.

Van Gundy played all the cards, but when he played away, Anjie was in poor health, Kobe's move was stable, and the bald referee Joey Crawford... all the factors that were unfavorable to the Thunder were all present. These factors finally killed the stubbornly resisting Thunder.

The Thunder were still chasing. It was not until the last five seconds that Kobe scored three-pointers to turn the difference into 7. They finally accepted the fact that they were powerless to turn the world back.

yio4 is yiyiyi. The Thunder forced the Lakers to make yi6 mistakes with their desperate defense, but this still cannot change the ending that may belong to them.

In everyone's opinion, the script seems to have been written long ago. The defending champion and legend Kobe will definitely not fall for the Youth Army. But the Thunder used their own struggles to postpone their deaths again and again. From the initial prediction of 4-to-o to the last minute of the tiebreak battle, the Thunder has done its best.

When the game ended, Staples was shocked. Most of them cheered for the Lakers' victory, but some people cheered for the spirit of the Thunder.
Chapter completed!
