Chapter 114 The final battle, against the Warriors, the hot guy is back!

People returned to the team early in the morning, and the press conference was held before lunch.

When the media reporters were looking forward to what wonderful news the Lakers could give, Johnson threw a nuclear bomb directly at the reporters.

Boom! ! !

Zheng Long will be back in tomorrow's game against the Warriors!
All of a sudden, the media people were dumbfounded and didn't react much. Although they didn't see Zheng Long's inspection report with their own eyes, the matter had already been exposed by the authority. Before the Kings game, Wharton also admitted that Zheng Long would Missed the rest of the season.

kidding?
Not so much.

If Zheng Long can make a comeback against the Kings, he will certainly not end up in the situation where Lakers fans are chasing after him.

The only thing the media could think of was Zheng Long's forced comeback to fight the fire.

Perhaps, it was also closed!

However, Johnson didn't say much, and ended the press conference in a hurry. Originally, Johnson wanted to spread the news as soon as possible through the influence of the media.

First appease the Lakers fans who are sad because the Kings lost.

As for the rest, let the media people play freely!
The reporters felt as uncomfortable as ants crawling on their bodies. Fortunately, the game between the Lakers and the Warriors will start tomorrow. At that time, everything will clear up and see the light!
And even if Zheng Long makes an emergency comeback, people in the media don't think the Lakers can win the Warriors. Although the Lakers won the Warriors in the first matchup of the season, now as the season progresses, Durant Almost perfectly integrated into the Warriors' offensive system, the Warriors also won ten consecutive victories.

most important.

It is impossible for the Warriors to give up the historical record just set last season!

Even though the 73 wins last season became a "shame" in the mouths of many sunspots because they did not win the final NBA championship, it is still a record recorded in NBA history.

When Johnson left the scene, people in the media chirped to express their opinions.

"This may be a smoke bomb to disturb the warriors' morale. I don't think Zheng Long can play normally."

"We want to go together. Even if we play, we must play with injuries. Play for 10 minutes? 5 minutes?"

"My friend at the Los Angeles Central Hospital just gave me the news that Zheng Long didn't go through the discharge procedures, so maybe he just came here for a formality!"

"Anyway. Tomorrow will definitely be very lively."

No matter what people in the media guessed, after the press conference, the news about Zheng Long's comeback still bombarded the Internet.

That man has always been able to do wonders for the team.

And at this moment, in times of crisis, he is back!
What other plot could make the fans more excited than this?Lakers fans are looking forward to the arrival of tomorrow's game day, can't wait to move the reels of the clock quickly.

At the same time, the Golden State Warriors, who had just arrived in Los Angeles, got the news.

Green: "Gift Crab, damn it! I'm getting excited!"

Thompson: "I won't be blown up by him like the last matchup."

Curry: "Brothers, the real challenge is coming."

Durant: "It doesn't matter, I will shoot."

This season, as the league's No. [-] and No. [-], the Warriors have been secretly competing with the Lakers. With the number of Lakers' wins rising, the Warriors have lost their qualifications for comparison in terms of record.

But the Lakers have always been the team that the Warriors players most want to meet in the playoffs.

Strong not afraid of strong.

The Warriors have been looking for an opportunity for revenge.

Even after learning the news of Zheng Long's injury, the players in the Warriors expressed their regret one after another.

They hope to beat a Lakers with Zheng Long.

Only in this way.

Only then can the shame be washed away.

Because even if they beat Wulong Lake this time, the sunspots will not shut up, they will say, look, the Warriors can beat the Lakers only if Zheng Long is not there, the Warriors are so lucky.

As a team that has been at the forefront of public opinion for the past two years.

The Warriors are tired of talking like that -- it negates all the hard work you've done.

Since we are fighting, we should!
--------

Zheng Long's comeback, the first place in the league vs. the second place in the league, and the regular season winning record are enough to make Staples Arena the center of the universe on April 4th.

When a simple backcourt ticket was fired by scalpers to the price of the Lakers' frontcourt playoffs, the figure of a few hundred dollars already explained everything.

At the pre-match press conference, Wharton appeared on the stage wearing a suit and smiling. Regarding Zheng Long’s injury, he still avoided answering, but he confirmed the news that Zheng Long will play today.

This is not a smoke bomb!

The media people breathed a sigh of relief for the Lakers. They were afraid that the Lakers were playing smoke bombs and playing off. After all, the attention of today's game has reached the highest among all regular seasons this season!

Even surpassed the battle of bravery!
Warriors head coach Steve Kerr showed his trademark smile on the scene.

"Everyone sincerely hopes that the injury will stay away from everyone. I am very happy that Zheng Long can come back. He is a very good player."

"About recording this piece."

"Records are made to be broken, just like we broke the record set by the Bulls last year. Unlike the Bulls, we have the opportunity to keep our own records. This is the current unified idea of ​​​​the team."

After the pre-match press conference, Walton also took the initiative to find Cole to shake hands.

The relationship between the two in private is also a teacher and a friend.

It was Kerr who gave Walton the opportunity to serve as the head assistant coach of the Warriors.

Walton also reached the peak of the team with the Warriors and the Warriors. To a certain extent, the Warriors made it possible for Walton to stand here and represent the Lakers.

The two communicated in low voices.

"Luke, to be honest, before you went to the Lakers, I didn't expect you to be so good."

"It's my good luck that gave me a group of excellent players like Curry."

"Luck? Then do you think luck will be on our side today?"

Regarding Cole's joke, Wharton was silent for a while, put away his smile, and his eyes changed from mild to full of fighting spirit.

"Long said that he is the chosen one. Then I think, this season, our Lakers are also the chosen one!"

Cole froze for a moment, then laughed.

Wharton was a little embarrassed, he didn't expect why he suddenly lost his nerve, and imitated Zheng Long's set of the second disease.

"The night I won 73 games last season, I thought the same thing as you did. That confidence later cost the team dearly."

Cole patted Wharton on the shoulder, left a meaningful sentence, and walked away.

Wharton stayed where he was and recollected it alone.

half an hour.

Said to Cole's leaving back.

"Perhaps we are different from you."

--------

With Zheng Long's comeback, of course the domestic fan circle was blown up, even more thoroughly than in the United States.

Because all domestic fans are fans of Zheng Long.

After the last game against the Kings, basketball anchor Xu Whale even issued a notice that he would no longer comment on Lakers games this season.

But today, he started the broadcast on time, and a large wave of fans poured in. The fans were excited and joyful because of Zheng Long's comeback, and they didn't forget to tease Xu Jingyu.

[Didn't you say no broadcast!Why did you have the cheek to start broadcasting again! "]

[Men are all the same, taking off their pants and talking, it's like farting! "]

[I'm afraid you won't broadcast it, today's game, how can I live without your commentary, whale! "]

[Don't worry, I support you!Teacher Wang Mang! "]

Xu Whale touched his nose in embarrassment, but cut out the live broadcast without too much explanation or nonsense.

"I won't show my face live with everyone today, I admit, I'm shameless!"

"But it's alright!"

"We still have to watch the game!"

"The opening show is here, and the game is about to start. I will accept everyone's criticism after the game!"

At this time, Staples Center.

All the Lakers players appeared on the stage, when the familiar bald head came out at the finale, wearing the No. 23 jersey, and ran onto the court waving his hands.

The entire arena erupted instantly.

"MVP! MVP! MVP!"

The shouts echoed in the arena over and over again. As a legendary arena established in 98, in Staples, there was only one person who could make the home fans instantly excited as soon as he played, and that was Kobe. Bryant.

Now that person has become Zheng Long!

When the Lakers players stood neatly in a row and enjoyed the cheers of the fans, the lights came on, the spotlight fell, and the host handed the microphone to Zheng Long.

This is a temporary link added to the opening show.

It was Zheng Long's initiative.

The fans were looking forward to it, calmed down, and looked forward to Zheng Long's speech.

On the other side, the Warriors players standing in the arena passage also pricked up their ears.

Green couldn't help muttering: "The Lakers started the game too slowly, so they can't start the game sooner."

Holding the microphone, Zheng Long took a deep breath and looked around. There were tens of thousands of eyes watching him.

I saw a thousand expectations from it.

How can I not respond?

"During the period of injury, everyone was worried. The last game disappointed everyone, but today, everything is different because I am back."

"An advice to everyone."

"You can prepare how you will be with your friends after the game."

"Celebrating today's victory."

If the Staples Arena at the beginning was boiling and celebrating, then at this moment, the fans were completely ignited by Zheng Long's words, completely crazy!

Before the game, in front of the opponent's players, in front of the national live broadcast, you said that you can prepare to celebrate the victory in advance?

Throughout NBA history, there are a few players who dare to do this!
Of course, this statement will make the Warriors players very upset, and the Warriors fans in front of the TV will be even more upset, but the Lakers fans really feel very happy when they hear this!
Zheng Long didn't tell his teammates or Wharton about Zheng Long's remarks before the game. After the Lakers players were shocked for a short time, they naturally raised their fists to support the boss's rhetoric!

Wharton, on the other hand, rubbed his forehead fiercely, unable to suppress the corners of his mouth.

"This boy, this boy, I have never seen such a person."

At this time, the barrage in the Whale live broadcast room.

【66666666】

[But he is so handsome! 】

【Dare to say that!Zheng Long must be 100% back! 】

[We can look forward to Zheng Long descending from the sky today! 】

[I pay my respects to King Bi! 】

When the opening show ended, the Warriors players were already gearing up and couldn't wait to take their positions on the court.

What Zheng Long said before the game just made "Mr. Nice Man" Curry frowned rarely. Curry just has a good temper, but it doesn't affect his extreme desire to win.

The Warriors players felt "disrespected."

Of course they won't run up to argue with Zheng Long, but as long as they win today's game beautifully, they can slap Zheng Long in the face hard!
On the Lakers side, there are the familiar starting five.

For the Warriors, Curry, Clay, Durant, Green, Pachulia.

This is also the starting lineup for the first contest between the two teams.

No nonsense, the jump ball begins.

Jokic won the jump ball with Pachulia very competitively, and the Lakers won the first attack.

The basketball was passed to Zheng Long's hands. Zheng Long slowly dribbled the ball forward, and at the same time, he was also feeling the state of his body at the moment.

In the past few days since he was injured in the game against the Rockets, Zheng Long has not played a formal game, even a training game.

Just practiced a little shooting and some basic warm-ups.

Just like the system said.

At this time, my body has not fully recovered, and is still in a state of "repair".

Zheng Long can feel the pain from the Achilles tendon all the time.

Zheng Long was actually not as relaxed as he appeared to be.

With every movement, the tearing sensation will come from the Achilles tendon, but Zheng Long doesn't care, he can bear this little pain.

I was so scared that I hit my head, and suddenly the pain was so painful that I couldn't stand up.

Then his comeback today is meaningless.

"In the first offensive round of the Lakers, give the ball to Zheng Long first, and let Zheng Long find his hand."

"Clay's match against Zheng Long gave him a lot of oppression."

"Familiar with Jokic and Zheng Long's pick-and-roll coordination."

"This ball."

"After Zheng Long dribbled the ball into the three-point line, he directly chose a long two-point shot!"

"Unfortunately, iron!"

"But Zheng Long's movements in the air are still very stretched, and he doesn't look injured at all. It seems that Zheng Long has indeed returned from a full recovery! This is also a question that all our fans care about before the game starts!"

"The Warriors failed to counterattack, Butler protected the rebound, and the basketball continued to be given to Zheng Long"

On the court, Zheng Long continued to dribble and advance to the top of the arc.

The jump shot I just made felt very ordinary, especially at the moment of take-off, the instant pain distracted my focus on the shot.

Since the jump shot is like this, Zheng Long decided to choose a more secure breakthrough.

It can be seen that Klay Thompson facing Zheng Long is very nervous. Although he basically has no expression on the court, he is half-facially paralyzed, but the small steps he keeps moving have betrayed his mentality at this time.

"Long time no see, Little Clay."

"Why did Cole send you up to defend me?"

"Is the last game not bad enough?"

Even though his physical condition is average, Zheng Long's mouth is still very flexible. It is a pity that although Clay is very nervous, he is immune to Zheng Long's trash talk today.

If you don't take the move with your mouth, then you can only see the real move on the field!

Zheng Long dribbled the ball to the flank, and the Lakers players also moved quickly, which opened up space for Zheng Long after the breakthrough.

Lower your center of gravity and lean your back against Clay.

slap. slap. slap

When Zheng Long was playing with his back, he obviously felt that his foot was not as stable as before, but fortunately, he also found opportunities and gaps.

After squeezing Clay into the three-point line, he suddenly stepped back and turned around to shoot a jumper!

Clay reached out to stop him in despair, but only touched the air.

Excited Lakers fans saw Zheng Long's signature backward jumper coming. At the moment Zheng Long shot, many people had already raised their hands, ready to cheer for Zheng Long's first goal after his return!
then.

Swish!
Under everyone's gaze, the basketball turned over the net!

but.

But it was wiped from outside the basket!
"Zheng Long's fadeaway shot, here it comes!"

"This ball!"

"Three or three?!"

"No, it touched the basket. This is one, and the two do not stick."

"Jokic and Pachulia at the basket didn't expect Zheng Long to throw an air ball and the basketball flew directly out of the baseline."

The atmosphere in the Staples Arena suddenly became awkward.
