Kobe's commentary gave everyone a clearer understanding of the game, including fans who never watched basketball, who had a more intuitive understanding of what was happening on the field.
This is a necessary condition for a good commentator.
Therefore, if Kobe becomes an excellent commentator after retiring, there will be no problem at all. The only question now is...which TV station can pay Kobe's salary. Kobe is not one of those players who has not made a lot of money in his career. According to the current situation
According to estimates, Kobe is likely to get a contract worth more than 100 million US dollars from the Lakers.
The Lakers have never been stingy on this matter, which is their advantage.
Fanci and his team returned to the locker room. Nowitzki was still very angry. He said loudly in the locker room: "This is the ecology of Miami. The league always takes care of them. The league always treats local players better than international players.
"
King Nuotian has already experienced such a failure once, and he does not want to fall under this unspoken rule again.
He has spent his entire career fighting against the pride and prejudice of American basketball circles. He is obviously a strong player, but he is labeled a softie.
There will be xenophobia in every place and every region.
Fan Xi also has a say in this aspect.
Based on Fanshie's experience in the past two seasons, if he were a dark-skinned African-American, he would be praised to an unprecedented height. He would already be comparable to Jordan and Magic Johnson.
However, in the past two years, he has still been highly criticized by the American basketball circle, and he has always been criticized. If Fanshey hadn't continued to break doubts and create miracles, he would probably have been strangled and killed on the rookie wall by all aspects.
, and then become an ordinary All-Star... Americans can accept an ordinary foreign All-Star, but if you want to dominate the league, you will get strong resistance, some of which are even unethical and completely torn.
Shameless.
"These things will not rewrite the results, Dirk, believe me, the help they get will make them short-sighted." Fan Xi said to the German King seriously: "The fate is in our own hands. Only we can control the results.
.”
Nowitzki is still a little frustrated.
He wanted to remind Fan Xi that that's because you don't know how tricky they are and how good they are at interrupting the game.
However, he didn't say much in the end.
The team needs morale. The Clippers are now 7 points behind and have a great chance in the second half.
Fan Xi didn't say anything in the locker room. He just asked everyone to have a good rest and conserve their energy.
The home team's locker room in Miami was filled with excitement.
Both James and Wade felt very good tonight, and they played extremely smoothly. They are both confident of winning tonight.
Haslem even shouted there: We should win a massacre victory, we should defeat Los Angeles in one fell swoop.
Moreover, he clearly spelled out some unspoken rules: "Tonight's penalty is in our favor, we can play more aggressively. The Clippers are bound to be timid. This is our opportunity. God is on our side."
There's no reason for Angelenos to go home with a smile on their face."
…
Beep!
The whistle sounded.
The second half of the game continues.
Nowitzki returned to the game, with Fanci, Hamilton, Leonard, Nowitzki and DeAndre Jordan forming the half-court lineup.
The Miami Heat are Wade, Battier, James, Bosh, and Joel Anthony.
Wade brought the ball to the frontcourt, he and Bosh completed the pick-and-roll in the high post, he drove into the paint and hit a floater.
Wade and James both had very smooth hands tonight.
According to this trend, they are very likely to score 30 points each.
After changing sides, Fanci and Nowitzki played a pick-and-roll. Fanci entered the free throw line and turned back to pass to Nowitzki.
Wade slapped Nowitzki on the shoulder, but the referee did not blow the whistle.
Fortunately, Nowitzki tenaciously hit this high jumper and scored his first score of the game.
He looked at the referee very depressed.
The referee's eyes were calm.
McBreen told lies on TV with his eyes open: "In the finals, the defensive intensity will increase."
But in an instant, Leonard just pushed James when he was guarding his back and blew the whistle.
Leonard was given a defensive foul.
Fortunately, James missed the shot.
boom!
Whoosh!
One of two free throws.
This is an obvious double standard.
This is a very typical home whistle. The standards are stricter for the visiting team and looser for the home team.
Kobe raised his eyebrows. This kind of thing is relatively common in the NBA.
Therefore, this has also caused many stars to have one team at home and one team at away games.
Nowitzki was in a bad mood.
After Fanci received the serve, he said to Nowitzki: "Dirk, don't think about these things in your head. If you are bound by these things, you will limit yourself invisibly."
Back at halftime, Fanci and Nowitzki continued to pick and roll in the high post.
After the screen, Fan Xi quickly rushed into the paint area. He jumped high and Joel Anthony blocked the shot. Seeing that the two were about to collide, Fan Xi suddenly made a pull lever and turned his body in the air... perfect
Get around Anthony and put the basketball in with one hand.
Calm, elegant and impeccable.
The score difference narrowed to 4 points.
After changing sides, James entered the penalty area and got a foul from Jordan.
One of two free throws.
Then, Fan Xi took advantage of Wade's lack of attention from outside the three-point line and took a shot two meters away from the three-point line... Whoops!
Hit, and the point difference was reduced to 1 point.
As long as Nowitzki stays on the court, defenders are bound to be distracted.
This gave Fan Xi a chance to exploit every opportunity.
"No one is better at seizing opportunities than Jack. Even if they are fleeting, he can seize them calmly." Kobe greatly praised on TV.
However, back at halftime, Nowitzki just stretched out his hand to guard against Wade who came in suddenly, and the whistle sounded.
Body hair whistle reappears.
Nowitzki received his third foul.
Moreover, he complained loudly to the referee: "Are you the second Donaghy?"
Beep!
He was called for a technical foul.
Nowitzki returned to the bench angrily, and even kicked the seat hard.
His mentality was a little broken.
The last time he entered the finals, he encountered such treatment in this arena. The championship trophy he originally received was stolen. Now, after finally entering the finals for the second time, it is the same situation again.
Roar!
He let out an unyielding roar from the bench.
He really broke the defense.
Kobe raised his eyebrows on TV and said: "This is very detrimental to the Clippers. Dirk needs psychological counseling. There are some problems with his three fouls tonight. I can't say that he must have been treated unfairly, but if
If it were me, I would also complain loudly."
"I think the Clippers are in danger now. This is Dirk's problem. He suffered the same defeat in the 2006 Finals. If he gets stuck in it, the Clippers' combat effectiveness will be greatly reduced. Maybe it will be very difficult next time.
It’s hard to see Jack and Dirk’s perfect pick-and-roll reaction in the last game.”
Reggie Miller said worriedly.
Although the ESPN channel is very unfriendly to Fanci, Reggie Miller likes Fanci very much. He often brings in private information when commentating on games and praises Fanci.
"Yes." Kobe nodded. "But I think Jack can solve the problem."
"oh?"
McBrin raised his eyebrows and asked questioningly: "Can the Clippers still win without two important rotations and the inside core Nowitzki?"
Kobe shrugged his shoulders and spread his palms. He didn't speak, but his smile was a little weird.
Nowitzki was worried about facing the Heat because he had been injured before. However, don't forget that Fanshie had a psychological advantage when facing the Heat. Last season, the Lakers were in such a difficult situation that they even couldn't even compete until the end.
There was no regular season starter, but...the Lakers won three consecutive championships."
The Heat hit the free throw and received the ball for a technical foul.
The Clippers used Grant Hill to replace Nowitzki.
Fanci followed Wade. Wade passed the basketball to James. James rushed into the penalty area. He was about to combine the ball for a layup. Fanci suddenly shot out from the diagonal stab. He was like a bolt of lightning... Bang!
He directly slapped James' basketball away. His speed was so fierce and his movements were so crisp that no one expected it.
Fan Xi grabbed the basketball and ran towards the front court.
When he rushed into the paint area like lightning, the Heat's defense also squeezed in crazily. Fanci threw it to the sideline in the paint area. Grant Hill rushed over, grabbed the basketball and jumped directly...
!
Easily hit an open three-pointer.
The Clippers stabilized their decline.
The game continues.
The Heat slowed down their offensive pace and they would not be fooled in the first quarter again.
They pressed and beat.
Let Bosh take the lead.
But Bosh didn't feel very good tonight, and Marcus Camby didn't have enough offensive ability.
Coupled with Jordan's extra effort, Jordan's backcourt rebound protection is very good.
This made the Heat's inside offensive ineffective.
Although they got some penalty advantages, they took 8 more free throws than the Clippers in the third quarter.
However, the third quarter was over.
The Miami Heat are only 5 points ahead of the Los Angeles Clippers.
This is equivalent to them losing by one point in a single quarter.
…
Fanci returned to the bench, and he finally had a chance to chat with Nowitzki.
Nowitzki came up and played for 3 minutes in the second half of the third quarter, but had little effect. He missed 2 shots and was called for another foul. He now has 4 fouls.
"Dirk, what are you worried about?" Fan Xi and the German King said frankly.
"Jack, you know what? They always do that, when we start to get going, those bad whistles come. When they're in crisis, there's always some extra free throw whistle to help them. I was there before.
They lost the finals like this in 2006. Now, they are doing it again."
Nowitzki said unhappily.
"This is 2012, not 2006." Fanshie held Nowitzki's shoulders tightly with both hands. He glared at the German King and told him with certainty: "Your teammates now are me and us. There is no power.
Who am I if you can stop me? Son of miracles, what is a miracle? Only when you believe in miracles will there be miracles."
"Since they are going to call you a foul, then why don't you just let go and fight? They are going to knock you down anyway, so why don't you go crazy before going down? Dirk, you are not a weak person.
Use your energy and at least make them feel uncomfortable before they take you down!"
Fan Xi said with great certainty.
His voice was very penetrating, and he made Nowitzki's eyes clear and firm.
Yes, since they want to mess with me, why don't I just defeat them head-on? Even if I am defeated, it is better than feeling sorry for myself now.
As long as people change their thinking, they will soon become irresistible.
Nowitzki is not a fool, nor is he a softie. He just lost his way temporarily because of the fucking whistle. Now, he is back on track.
"That's right, Jack!"
Nowitzki said firmly: "I have to make them pay the price. I have to vent my anger and grievance in the right place."
Beep!
The whistle sounded.
The game continues.
Fanci dribbled the ball across half court, and the Heat were about to organize a pick-and-roll between him and Nowitzki. Fanci directly passed the basketball to Nowitzki.
This time, the Heat's plan was broken.
Chris Bosh hurriedly defended, but Nowitzki jumped up with a slight tap. Nowitzki took advantage of the situation and drove into the three-point line, and Bosh hurriedly pursued it.
At this time, Nowitzki made a very rare move. He stopped suddenly, then stepped back to the three-point line, and he took off and shot... Whoa!
Three-point hit.
The point difference is only 2 points.
After the goal, Nowitzki showed a faint sneer and looked calmly at the Heat players in front of him.
His expression was full of joking and sarcasm, as if to say: Come on, do any dirty tricks.
Kobe captured Nowitzki's emotions.
He soon burst into laughter and told the television audience: "It seems that Nowitzki has found the best psychological counselor."
"I forgot that Jack has always been a player who is very good at supporting his teammates. I remember when the Lakers were at their most desperate in the finals last season, it was him who shouted, 'The iron armor is still there.' Those words encouraged everyone. When being a leader
I am not as good as him in this matter."
Kobe admitted it frankly.
This led to even more admiring voices in front of the TV.
And the game continues.
When Dwyane Wade once again broke through the defense and entered the paint area, and headed towards Nowitzki, Nowitzki did not dodge, nor did he tentatively reach out to steal. He jumped directly, and he pounced on Wade... They met on a narrow road.
The brave prevail.
Wade had to pull the ball to pass, but...the basketball made a mistake and passed out of bounds.
"Don't try to beat me with those damn body hair whistles anymore. It's 2012 and it's the end of the world for you!" Nowitzki rarely talks trash. He is a foreigner. But now, his voice is particularly loud.
Fan Xi gave him the confidence.
It gave him the courage to face his fate and defeat it.
He stared at Wade with sharp eyes, glaring at the man who killed the Mavericks in four cities.
Not to be outdone, Wade said to Nowitzki: "You will fall even worse."
"Yeah?"
Fan Xi's voice came over coldly, piercing Wade's eardrums sharply.
Wade turned his head and saw the strong and confident Fan Xi.
Only then did he realize that 2012 was indeed very different from 2006.
