On the afternoon of the 22nd, the entire Thunder team arrived in Los Angeles. After entering the hotel, Su Yangming ordered the team to leave and asked for leave.

For some reason, the news quickly spread to social platforms such as Twitter. Many people mocked him for making a big fuss, believing that he did not believe in the players' self-control ability and treated the players as children. Doing so would only backfire and reduce the players' combat effectiveness.

Su Yang was too lazy to pay attention to it, so he led the team to watch the video running tactics as usual. He also promised in advance that no matter what the result of the third game was, he would lead the team to Malibu Beach after the end. Anyway, he could not delay the rest privately, which would affect the normal performance of the game.

On the second day's game day, at 3 pm, Su Yang and Durant and others rushed to the stadium to prepare for practice in advance.

The staff of Staples Center did not make any difficulties. Several people entered the stadium and only had some faint lights. They found that Kobe was already training, and his chest and back were wet. He thought that he had practiced for at least an hour and was invincible in diligence.

Durant and others showed a surprised expression on their faces, and Su Yang was also slightly passionate and took the opportunity to encourage them to learn from Kobe.

After both sides said hello, Kobe continued to train and did not leave until half past five when the Thunder troops arrived.

Su Yang made a brief arrangement and went to the media center for an interview. After several uninformed questions, he was finally asked how to view ESPN's survey and statistics report that "90% of fans hope that the Lakers and Celtics will play in the finals."

"That's a common method of false reporting, or a common mistake of not rigorous reporting, just like you politicians always like to say that the U.S. economy has grown 13% since 2009, but in fact only 1% of the richest people are growing...

By the same token, 90% of fans who want to see the Lakers and Celtics play the finals are definitely only a small part of all fans. If you don’t believe it, let ESPN count how many fans don’t want to see the two teams play the finals.”

After saying the two sentences, the reporter was stunned on the spot, while Su Yang turned around and left, thinking that it was so good to suddenly pretend to be high in IQ.

But after all, I still want to find some advantages in public opinion to avoid the idea that the Thunder generals have the normal idea that the Lakers will enter the finals.

At around 6:50, more than 190 million fans entered the court, and a grand pre-match ceremony began.

The Lakers' famous players appeared one after another, and there were several big-name fans like Denzel Washington who came to the scene in the future, cheering for the Lakers, and then the Magic Red lead singer Adam Levine led the national anthem, which was quite big.

It was seven o'clock that the game officially started.

The starting lineup of the two teams has not changed. The Thunder won the first attack, Westbrook and Ibaka cooperated in pick-and-roll, and the Lakers still double-teamed.

With previous review experience, Westbrook did not rush as deeply as he did, and he gave the ball to Ibaka early, but unfortunately he made a shot.

The Lakers grabbed the rebound and launched a counterattack. Kobe directly cooperated with Gasol at a low pick-and-roll and patiently scored 2 points.

Immediately afterwards, the Thunder followed Su Yang's on-the-spot arrangement and ran a brand new tactic around Durant. The Lakers were successfully deceived, and Arte was in a hurry and didn't know how to defend. Not only did he not restrict Durant, he was also beaten into two plus one, giving 3 points in vain.

The two teams immediately increased their defensive intensity, and their scoring efficiency also became very low, and they had not broken 10 points in nearly five minutes.

The whistle sounded occasionally, and the penalty standards were not much different, but Westbrook didn't pay attention and took a second foul.

Su Yang thought for a moment, worried that Westbrook would be difficult to control, and the first quarter game had not been finished. If he fouled again, the Thunder would be in a mess of rotation. He could only bite the bullet and replace Westbrook with Harden, and temporarily adjust his tactical style to let Durant attack.

Harden led the team as he did after he came on the court, but the Thunder did not have Westbrook, and the speed of pushing and counterattack was greatly reduced.

After each score, or even after a blacksmith, the return defense effect is better than before. Even because he is no longer afraid of Westbrook leading the team to push the counterattack, Gasol and Bynum are more positioned on the offensive end and take the opportunity to get a few offensive rebounds.

Because the Thunder was caught in a hand-to-hand combat in the position, he was missing a basket-rushing expert like Westbrook, and his scoring efficiency decreased again.

However, the Thunder's defense resolutely shrank the inside line, and the rotation and defense were fast enough. After the first quarter, he only fell behind 18 to 26.

Faced with a situation similar to the second game, Su Yang was not panicked, and the Thunder generals were not panicked. After Westbrook made a comeback, he joined forces with Harden and Green to play a 15-6 attack wave, surpassing the Lakers strongly.

The main players of the two teams returned to the court one after another, Westbrook suffered strict defense and his scoring efficiency plummeted. Fortunately, Durant easily got rid of Ate's entanglement through new tactics, with a very high shooting percentage, while Ibaka blocked the shot, causing Gasol to make 1 of 4 shots.

After the half-time game, the Thunder led the Lakers 47 to 45, but Westbrook and Chandler also committed three fouls.

After returning to the locker room after halftime, Su Yang warned the whole team to be cautious and predicted that the Lakers would counterattack extremely fiercely in the second half.

As he expected, after the third quarter started, the Thunder suffered four fouls in less than two minutes.

The worst thing was Sefrosa. She was forced to make two fouls by Kobe's superb shot-making skills, so she could only end up early. Su Yang temporarily sent Matthews to defend, but Matthews was obviously shocked by Kobe's momentum and lost control of the situation, giving two or three points in vain.

The Lakers also have various major moves on the defensive end. Even if they are called fouls, they will not restrain themselves, and they will highlight their ferocity.

After several rounds of training, the Thunder was not scared, but the scoring efficiency returned to the level of the first quarter.

During the pause, Su Yang reminded the whole team not to panic. This is the advantage of the home court, even if you lose the game, you cannot lose momentum.

Just like that, after the third quarter, the Thunder fell four points behind, but in the fourth quarter, the situation did not change.

Accompanied by the Thunder's 12 foul whistles and the Lakers' 8 foul whistles, the game was played to the last five seconds.

The Thunder were two points behind. Seeing that the Lakers were willing to give two points with three points, Su Yang paused twice in a row, considering the Lakers' overall free throw shooting percentage, he consciously grabbed two points and had no hope of winning the game, and took the risk of setting up three-pointers around Green.

After the referee's whistle, the tactics successfully ran out, but unfortunately Green made a shot and the Thunder lost three-pointer.

In the whole game, Durant scored 32 points in a single pass, and the Thunder team blocked 17 times in vain.

At the post-match press conference, he talked about why he didn't grab two points in the end but made three-pointers, and it was not for the most confident Durant to take three-pointers. Su Yang didn't want to explain and felt that there was no need to explain. He said that his tactics were fine and he would come back next time.

That explanation caused a lot of controversy, and many people think that he was greedy for merit and reckless and unwilling to keep his feet on the ground.

Su Yang ignored it and fulfilled his promise the next day and took the whole team to Malibu Beach to play, but was criticized again.

On the 25th, Thunderbolt once again visited the Staples Center and had the fourth battle with the Lakers.

In the first quarter, Westbrook did not get into foul again, but Arte made many small moves when defending Durant. Even Bynum also interfered with Durant when he was covering, but none of them were called. Durant was affected and made continuous blacksmiths.

Su Yang was quite angry, but those actions were very hidden. The referee didn't blow, and there was nothing he could do.

The game was played until 2.8 seconds left in the fourth quarter, and the Thunder still took 1 point to lead by relying on their physical strength.

Kobe also made a fuck, but Bynum pushed Chandler away and scored a tip-in, and then ran back to the locker room.

The referee immediately announced that the Lakers won, and Su Yang knew that the result could not be changed, so he left the field calmly.

That night, the Thunder returned to Oklahoma with a big score of 2 to 2.

Su Yang reposted his previous tweet, reiterating that Jesus could not save the Lakers, and was ridiculed in all kinds of laughter.

Many fans think that his crazy approach is a sign of destruction.
