After the end of G1, the teams did not have much rest time. The schedule of the playoffs is very intensive. Each team only has 1 day of rest, and they will continue to play G3 on the third day.

On April 2017, 4, G25, the Lakers played against the Trail Blazers at home.

This time, Zheng Long stopped talking hard, but watched the live broadcast with Big O Robertson. Last time, the team let Zheng Long see the atmosphere of unity.

Zheng Long believes that the Lakers will continue to grasp the second home court advantage.

The reality is a slap in the face.

Lillard, who lost G1, ushered in an explosion in G2, scoring 41 points, and CJ McCollum also scored 34 points, and the two guns scored 75 points!
For the Lakers, the "new three" Butler, Ingram, and Jokic played abnormally. The three scored 47 points and lost G85 at home 109-2.

Lillard, who won G2, was also high-spirited. After the game, he said to the camera at the Staples Arena: "Since scoring 30 points can't beat the Lakers, then I will score 40 points!"

"If you need to win 50 in the next game!"

"Then I can do it too!"

Lillard's words made Zheng Long's teeth itch outside the TV.

"Lillard, kid!"

"There are no tigers in the mountains, and the monkeys are kings! There are no heroes in the world, so make Shuzi famous!"

"As long as I am here, how dare he be so arrogant at home?"

Robertson, who was watching the game with him, couldn't help but joked back: "The Lakers have lost a home court advantage. There is really suspense in this first round. The Lakers will not be blacked out, right?"

Zheng Long was sullen and didn't speak.

Last year, the Warriors set a record of 73 wins in the regular season, and the overturning of the finals has been ridiculed by the fans. If the Lakers set a record of 74 wins in the regular season this year, they will be directly hacked in the first round.

I dare not think, I really dare not think!
Zheng Long didn't dare to think, but the media and fans dared to think very much.

Immediately after the game, the topic of "the Lakers will be hacked" has rushed to the hot search in the sports sector.

For non-Lakers fans, what could be more exciting than this year's super dark horse Lakers being turned against by the Trail Blazers?

Netizens talked hotly.

[If the Lakers are hacked, I will give away an iphone7plus]

[The Lakers lost to the Trail Blazers, happy to hear!Director Li will prove that princes and generals are better than others! 】

[If it wasn't for Ingram's explosion, the Lakers wouldn't be able to win G1, the score would have been 0:2 long ago! 】

【Support the pioneers, come on, pioneers!Passers-by fans stay. 】

[The Lakers have created a new historical record, and they now have the opportunity to create a new joke record]

[Although the Warriors lost the Finals last year, I said earlier that this year's Lakers are not as dominant as last year's Warriors! 】

2017 4 Month 27 Day.

Under the huge pressure of public opinion, the Lakers came to the away game in Portland. Under the attention of all NBA fans, they started G3 with the Trail Blazers.

The intensity of the confrontation in this game was as direct as the fans expected before the game.

In the first quarter, the Lakers tied the Blazers 19-19.

At the beginning of the second quarter, during a layup confrontation between Lillard and Butler, the two clashed and scolded each other on the court. If it weren't for the players and coaches from both sides to fight wildly, it is estimated that the two would directly There was a fight.

As a result, the two each received a technical foul.

And this conflict between Lillard and Butler also raised the intensity of the confrontation between the two sides to another level. There were constant fouls on the court. When the first half ended, Lillard, Butler, Ingram, Nuer Keech's four fouls all came to 4.

In terms of scores, the two sides also bit together, the Lakers 39 to 40 Trail Blazers, 1 point behind.

In the first half of the game, Zheng Long was also excited.

Especially when Lillard and Butler quarreled, Zheng Long wished he could be there and punch his big cousin Lillard in the face.

No matter what happened at the scene, Zheng Long was definitely on Jimmy's side unconditionally.

After the start of the second half of G3, Ingram stood up again. He only scored 1 point in the first half. He scored 19 points in a single quarter in the third quarter, helping the Lakers to overtake the score in the third quarter and establish a 5-point lead. Advantage.

The fourth quarter of the game was also the most intense quarter of the game between the two sides. Before the game was over, Butler and Lillard left the field with six fouls.

Lillard's departure forced CJ McCollum to carry the team's offensive banner alone, but just as the Lakers lost Zheng Long and the Blazers who were the star players, they were completely messed up.

And the Lakers. They have lost Zheng Long, and they have nothing to lose. Even if they lose Butler, Jokic still relies on his cooperation with Ingram to stabilize the Lakers' lead.

When the whistle sounded for the end of the game.

The Lakers 91-84 Trail Blazers, the Lakers won, they lost a home game, and successfully got back an away game.

The Lakers have once again become the leading side in this round of the series.

This victory made Zheng Long so excited that he couldn't sleep all night.

He is no longer reserved, and in the group of teammates, he praises his teammates without hesitation, and celebrates with them the game won under the pressure of huge public opinion.

"That's it!"

"Hard it up, Jimmy!"

"Brandon, keep up the confidence! You are invincible!"

The Lakers players are also actively interacting with Zheng Long in the group. Although Zheng Long is not on the team, but at the moment, his spirit is there.

The Lakers' victory in G3 also successfully silenced many fans and the media. Although there is still the voice of black eight, it is much smaller.

This Lakers team has made many people see the shadow of their regular season.

In the regular season, the impression left by the Lakers is not that they are invincible, but that they played extremely hard and tenaciously under the leadership of Zheng Long. Until the last moment, even if they were behind, they never gave up.

But now, without Zheng Long, Butler finally stood up and led the team like a leader.

He completed the "one-for-one" with Lillard, and Jokic stayed with Ingram to complete the harvest of the game.

On April 2017, 4, G28 of other teams also ended one after another.

The big score is as follows.

西部分区，湖人2比1开拓者、勇士3比0雷霆、马刺3比0爵士、火箭2比1快船

Except for the Raptors, all other teams in the upper half took the lead, and the Warriors, Spurs, and Cavaliers also demonstrated the dominance of the strong teams and came to the match point.

--------

On April 2017, 4, the Lakers ushered in G29.

For the Lakers, if the Lakers can win two consecutive away games and lead the Blazers 3-1, they have a good chance to win the Blazers in the next home game and complete the home promotion.

For the Blazers, this is a game they can't lose. There are not no teams in history that have come back from a 1-3 deficit.More recently, last year's Cavaliers vs. Warriors and Warriors vs. Thunder all came back after falling behind 1 to 3, but the Blazers were not eligible to gamble.

The lessons of the last game allowed Lillard to perform exceptionally steadily in the first half of G3. Facing Butler's repeated provocations and trash talk, he chose to turn a blind eye.

The fans did not expect that the intensity of this G4 would not be as intense as the previous G3.

The Blazers boiled the frogs in warm water and maintained a lead of about 7 points in the half until the last moment of the game, although Butler, Ingram, and Jokic hit three-pointers one after another at the end of the fourth quarter.

But they were all counterattacked one by one by Li's guidance, and they hit three ultra-long shots in a row, stabilizing the leading position of the Blazers.

G4结束，开拓者114-107湖人，将大比分变成了2比2。

The Lakers will return to the home court to compete with the Blazers in the Tianwangshan battle. The Blazers' victory also brought back the suspense of this round of the series.

"At least it wasn't a 0-4 sweep, but a 2-2 draw.

"Just back to the same starting line."

"It was BO7 before, but it has become BO3."

After the game, Zheng Long said to Robertson with a smile.

The old man turned over the head of the bed, found a mirror, and faced Zheng Long.

"Stinky boy, do you want to look at your expression now, laughing is uglier than crying."

Zheng Long: "."

Zheng Long: "Fuck, where did you find this peerless handsome man?"

Robertson: ? ? ?
On April 2017, 4, G30 of all teams ended.

勇士、骑士、马刺全部完成了第一轮的4比0横扫，猛龙、老鹰、开拓者将比分扳平到了2比2，火箭以及凯尔特人取得了3比1的领先。

That night.

Zheng Long called Wharton.

"Tomorrow's Tianwangshan battle, I want to go to the scene to watch the match."

"Okay, come here, I will arrange for you the seat closest to the player's bench."

--------

On May 2017, 5, the Lakers played against the Trail Blazers at home.

Before dawn, Zheng Long, accompanied by Lin Bao, came to the training base of the Lakers, UCLA Health Training Center.

After letting Lin Bao go to the office to make up for the work left behind, Zheng Long was alone in the dark arena waiting for his teammates who came to train.

The first one to come to the arena was Oladipo.

When Ku Mamba turned on the lights in the arena and saw a person suddenly appearing in the arena, he was shocked.

"Xiao Hei, come and have a seat."

"Brother Long!"

Oladipo saw clearly that it was Zheng Long, and trotted to Zheng Long's side in surprise.

So far in this round of the series, Oladipo's performance has been average. After all, he was in the bad team Magic before, and he didn't have much experience in the playoffs. When the intensity and confrontation of the game came up, he has been working hard to adapt. Follow the rhythm of the game.

Oladipo looked forward.

"Brother Long, will you play today?"

The Lakers players are well aware of the importance of today's Tianwangshan game. When people are under pressure, they will look forward to "help" and "hope".

Zheng Long shook his head.

Oladipo showed a disappointed expression.

In Oladipo's mind.

If Zheng Long returns, all the pressure will no longer exist. Zheng Long will definitely lead the Lakers to easily win today's Tianwangshan.

"You can only rely on yourselves, Xiao Hei. I am here today mainly to chat with you and relieve stress."

Hearing what Zheng Long said, Oladipo felt warm in his heart.

In Oladipo, Zheng Long has become more and more humane from the initial "cold", "arrogant" and "strict".

On the court, he is still omnipotent, but on the court, he has become more likable.

at this point.

Zheng Long also felt it himself.

The depression of the "dark period" after being selected by the Rockets and the influence of the peak Jordan template made Zheng Long gradually move closer to Jordan in terms of character and behavior at the beginning.

Perhaps subconsciously, I feel that this kind of "imitation" can allow me to maximize the strength of the Jordan template.

But gradually, Zheng Long understood that although the system gave him the peak Jordan template, he should not be the next Jordan.

I can definitely become the next "Zheng Long".

This is also the reason why Zheng Long gradually changed and became more and more "human". Before, he was "imitating" God, but now he is being himself.

Zheng Long tried his best to tell Oladipo about the problems he found while watching the game these days.Although he can't play, Zheng Long also wants to use his game understanding and experience to help Oladipo do better.

If the Lakers want to win this G5, it is far from enough to rely on Butler, Jokic, and Ingram alone.

"As the team's starting point guard, you must help the team share more offensive pressure, and you must also help Jimmy, share the task of defending Lillard, and leave Jimmy more physical strength to use on the offensive end."

Oladipo nodded earnestly.

At the same time, Butler, Jokic, and Ingram also entered the arena together. When the three saw Zheng Long, their expressions were wonderful.

"Zheng Long, you are here!"

"Brother Long, your legs are alright?!"

"Oh, Brother Long, did you come to see us win the game today?"

Zheng Long stood up smiling and made fists with the three of them, bumped his shoulders to say hello, and then looked at the "leader" of the current team - Jimmy Butler.

"How do you say, Jimmy, how many points are you going to lead the team to win against the Trail Blazers today?"

Butler froze for a moment, then blurted out.

"Well, clock in at three quarters and get off work."

Facing Zheng Long's question, Butler didn't hesitate at all.

Jokic joked on the side.

"Yes, if we hit the iron, it's still easy for the Blazers to clock in three quarters and win the game."

Everyone laughed together.

Zheng Long feigned anger, punched Jokic's fat belly, and said, "Okay, now get the ball for me. I'm here today to give you lessons."

"Attend class?"

"That's right, next, prepare to call me Coach Long."
