When the final whistle sounded, the score between the two teams was completely finalized.
The Clippers eliminated the Lakers with a total score of 4:1 to advance to the finals. This was the first time in the history of the Clippers that they have reached the finals. It was also Fanshe's first season joining the Clippers.
There are about three to four thousand fans in Staples Arena, most of them are Clippers fans, and they are excitedly celebrating tonight's victory.
When Fan Xi stood on the technical stage, the whole audience roared with the roar of MVP.
It's like turning the Lakers' home court into the Clippers' home court.
The Lakers players, coaching staff, and staff are now leaving the game in despair.
This was their most tragic defeat.
It was also the most tragic failure in history.
This is the largest margin of victory in playoff history.
Speaking of this largest point difference, it is quite fate with the Lakers.
Before 2009, the record for the largest point difference in the NBA playoffs was set by the Lakers. That was still far away in 1953, when the Lakers in Minneapolis bloodyly slaughtered the St. Louis Hawks, now the Atlanta Hawks, 133:75.
.
It was a 58-point massacre.
53 years later, on April 28, 2009, the Denver Nuggets defeated the Hornets 121:63 in New Orleans by 58 points, tying the Lakers in one fell swoop and tying the record for the largest playoff margin set by the Lakers that year.
.
The two big buffs of Paul and the Lakers are superimposed together.
Tonight, the Clippers set a new record and rewrote history with a 66-point massacre.
In one fell swoop, the Los Angeles Lakers' unshakable dominance in the City of Angels was shaken.
Starting tonight, when talking about basketball in Los Angeles, it is no longer possible to place the Lakers ahead of the Clippers.
Fanci spent a season building up the Clippers' legacy with three massacres. Moreover, they defeated the Lakers on the most important stage of the Western Conference Finals and obtained the only ticket to the Finals representing the Western Conference.
When Fan Xi jumped down from the technical stage, reporters swarmed in and surrounded Fan Xi.
They have many questions to ask Fan Xi.
Of course, there are many media reporters who support the Lakers.
Their emotions have collapsed at this moment: there is nothing more desperate than seeing their home team eliminated and massacred in a historic and humiliating way.
Therefore, some of the questions raised are ridiculous and outlandish, making people laugh or cry.
"Jack, do you think it is honorable to keep shooting three-pointers at the last moment and insist on expanding the score when the outcome is already determined?"
When the reporter's question came up, Fan Xi aimed his eyes at the middle-aged Caucasian reporter wearing gold-rimmed glasses. He said seriously: "Only failure is a humiliating thing. In competitive sports, weakness is the original sin.
"
"Before the whistle blows, no outcome is ever decided. If you find it difficult to accept, please get used to it."
Fan Xi answered the reporter's questions in a calm tone and without mercy.
He doesn't want to go around in circles with these Lakers supporters. He clearly draws a clear line and tells you clearly: I'll kill you if I kill you, no matter what time or occasion it is. If you don't accept it, hold back.
"You won the Western Conference Finals. This was the first time in the history of the Clippers, and it was a victory over the Lakers, a team in the same city. Do you think you have surpassed the Lakers?" Another reporter asked this question about cerebral thrombosis in ten years.
The problem.
"Isn't this obvious?" Fan Xi spread his palms and said: "We slaughtered the Lakers in the preseason, and you said we took advantage of others. We killed the Lakers in the Christmas game, and you said we were lucky. We went against the odds in the New Year's game.
We attacked and killed the Lakers, and you said God was on our side. We massacred the Lakers in the final game, and you said we were cheating. Now, not only have we eliminated the Lakers 4:1, but we have also created a historic point difference, and you are still coming.
Ask if we can surpass the Lakers..."
"This is not a game of rolling down from the top of the mountain. We are sprinting towards the top of the mountain, and the ones rolling down are the Lakers."
Fan Xi showed no mercy, he was on full fire at this moment.
He unleashed all his dissatisfaction with the Lakers.
"If the Lakers had not traded you, do you think you would have achieved what you have now?" Another media supporter of the Lakers asked a dumbfounding question.
"So, do I want to thank the Lakers? Do I want to thank the Lakers who dumped me when I tore my ligament?"
Fan Xi stared at the reporter.
The reporter lowered his head in shame, unable to ask any more questions.
When it comes to the issue between Fan Xi and the Lakers, Fan Xi will always stand on the moral high ground. It is the Lakers who can't stand up to Fan Xi. Anyone with social common sense and moral cognition will stand on Fan Xi's side.
The Lakers media has nothing to say.
Other media took the opportunity to ask Fanci some questions about the game.
"All our players played tonight, and each of us played very well. It is the hope of all of us to advance to the finals. We all showed our strength. I am very grateful to meet such a group of teammates,
It feels great to have everyone working together towards the same goal.”
Fan Xi answered seriously.
Then they talked about the fight.
Fanci said extremely seriously: "There is no doubt that Jimmy set a bad example. But I am proud of his courage at that time. He stood up when his teammates faced malicious harm. This is our team culture.
, Our teammates are our brothers and our wealth. No one can hurt our brothers or embezzle our wealth."
"So, if the league wants to fine Jimmy, I will pay all the fines for him. You know, I am far richer than this rookie. This is my encouragement to him as the leader of the team, and he must show up in front of the TV.
The audience apologized for the violent behavior. But at the same time, his courage also needs to be recognized."
"I sincerely hope that the league and the media will treat this matter fairly. This was originally just a normal conversation on the court. The NBA is a high-intensity competition. It is normal for some trash talk to occur during the game. However, when an incident
The third party in the incident ran over and used despicable means to attack our center. The instigator should be severely punished."
"Actually, this guy did something incredible in the second quarter. He stepped in and let our excellent point guard, the two-time regular season MVP, get injured and leave."
"We are a healthy league, do we still want to encourage these dirty and ugly actions that should not exist on the basketball court at all?"
Fan Xi said righteously.
"We will edit videos of all the dirty actions in the Western Conference finals, and let the fans judge whether they are right or wrong."
Fan Xi continued.
He was still very angry when he talked about this incident.
If it hadn't been for the instigator, Nash wouldn't have left the game injured, Kwame Brown wouldn't have been elbowed, and Jimmy Butler wouldn't have hit someone.
Paul caused the Clippers to lose three combat effectiveness.
This casts a shadow over the Clippers' trip to the Finals.
"Are you worried that the subsequent suspension caused by this conflict will affect the Clippers' performance in the Finals? As we all know, Kwame Brown, Jimmy Butler and the injured Stephen Nash are the three most important rotation players of the Clippers.
They represent the Clippers' penalty area, forward, and backcourt respectively."
a reporter asked.
This is a real problem.
Paul is very ruthless. He made the Clippers' three most important rotations likely to miss the finals.
Fan Xi took a deep breath and said in a resolute tone: "We will overcome all difficulties. How can someone who aims to reach the top be repelled by a slight setback? No matter what happens next, our goal will not change.
Our victory cannot change that."
Fan Xi strengthened everyone's confidence.
As the leader of the Clippers, he needs to give all supporters a boost at this time.
We must also tell our competitors in the east not to take advantage of this opportunity.
"Now that we have tickets to the finals, there is no other way for us except winning the championship."
Finally, Fan Xi told everyone with great certainty.
…
That night, all the Los Angeles media were reporting on this shocking news. The Clippers eliminated the Lakers in the Western Conference Finals, which was an unprecedented first for Los Angeles.
In the past, everyone's perception of the two teams was very different.
But this season, the Clippers have created a new pattern with massacre after massacre. Until now, this bloodiest massacre in history has told the world that the basketball world in Los Angeles has entered a new era.
For Lakers fans, this was the night the Iron Curtain opened.
For Lakers executives, it was an unbearable night.
For Lakers shareholders and Lakers owners, this is the prelude to pain and regret.
They lost the opportunity to create a fourth consecutive championship. Although they paid the highest luxury tax in the league this year, they still did not achieve the same results as last season.
And, they're losing the market in Los Angeles...after they're losing their morals.
Their economic losses are difficult to estimate, and their market value is also being affected. Although the market value is still rising, the extent of the increase is far less than that of the Clippers in the same city.
The Clippers are going to eat up their market share and take away their fan base...which they're already doing.
Time Warner can't wait to congratulate the Clippers on becoming the new Western Conference champions. Their coverage of the Clippers far exceeds that of the Lakers.
They have made their decision, and they will soon attach an offer that satisfies Fan Xi.
This offer will even exceed the previous 25-year, $5 billion offer to the Lakers.
Bass Sr. was lying on the hospital bed, with his son Jim Bass sitting next to him. He accompanied his father to watch the entire game... Bass Sr.'s physical condition recovered a lot because of this massacre... It was probably a return to his former glory.
Or perhaps he was inspired by anger.
He regrets it very much.
He finally figured out one thing. When choosing a family successor, you don't need to choose those children who are capable and independent. These guys will quickly destroy the family business. You should choose those children who are incompetent and don't bother. They at least
Can keep the family business.
Moreover, if you are lucky, Xiao Gui and Cao will follow, and you can create new glory.
Old Buss regrets it very much now. He is thinking that if Jim had been allowed to continue to be in charge of the Lakers. With the close relationship between Fan Xi and Jim, Jack Fan would have renewed his contract with the Lakers in advance. And the Lakers must have been so devastating.
Made it to the finals.
With Fanci and Kobe, two powerful leaders, how difficult is it to sweep the Western Conference and the entire league? Four consecutive championships, five consecutive championships, six consecutive championships, seven consecutive championships, and eight consecutive championships may not be impossible.
only.
"Son, it was me who hurt the Lakers." After smashing many things around him, Buss finally said to his silent son.
Jim doesn't care anymore.
He never thought about undoing things that could no longer be changed.
As the famous New York center Ewing once said: I never cry over spilled milk.
What's the use of crying if the milk has been spilled?
"Can we make a comeback next season?" Bass asked Jim.
Jim said: "Kobe should still be able to maintain his peak form for two to three seasons. With Paul, Howard, and Gasol, there will definitely be no problem reaching the Western Conference finals. But whether he can go further depends on whether Jack can go further.
.”
He said frankly: "Jack is the kind of player who can evolve quickly. No one knows how powerful he will be next season. He is becoming more and more dominant now, and his control of the game is already that of the top superstars in active service.
level. Although many people are still saying that he can’t do this or that.”
"When Jack can do everything, no one in the league can stop him."
Jim Bass said so.
Then, Jenny Buss walked in.
Jenny has been digesting it for a while.
She is a woman with a strong heart, and she quickly gets over her failure, or in other words, she does not want to show herself defeated by failure in front of her father.
She first expressed her apology to her father.
Then, she continued: "We have to put pressure on the league. Both Jimmy Butler and Kwame Brown must be suspended for more than seven games. As long as the Clippers can't win the championship and they can't become a championship team, they still can't
Comparable to us."
"Although many media are boasting that the Clippers have surpassed the Lakers, I believe that as time passes and people's excitement fades, they will still clearly understand that the Lakers are the Lakers."
Jenny said with confident words.
Jim sitting next to him was silent.
Old Bass's face changed unsteadily, and finally he said: "You are the president now, you don't need to explain your actions to me. You just do it."
Everyone knows that when Jeanie Buss is on the gambling table, she can only keep raising the bets. If she goes against Fan Xi, she has a chance to win back, but once she compromises, the Lakers must stay down and play small.
only….
Jim Bass was thinking: Will this anger Jack even more? Do you know how scary Jack is when he is angered?
Of course, he just thinks about it in his mind, he won't say it out loud.
Now that the Lakers have boarded Jeanie Buss' pirate ship, they can only let her continue driving without hesitation.
