Chapter 20 Pre- Match Interview! Game 7 Is About to Begin

The next day.

NBA Finals usher in Game 7!

Three hours before the game.

The NDRC is already packed with people.

Not only was the stadium packed, but the square outside the stadium was also crowded with people. At a glance, it was filled with heads.

The enthusiastic fans completely conquered the TD Garden.

Although the Celtics were defeated by the Lakers by 33 points in the last game, this did not make the fans lose confidence.

They still firmly believe that the iron-blooded Green Army will not be defeated by this setback.

The Celtics will launch a more frenzied counterattack in this game, and the Lakers should be prepared to bear this terrifying wrath!

As lifelong enemies, Celtics fans hate the Lakers to the extreme.

Even before the game started, some fans had already started chanting "Beat the Lakers".

...

Inside the stadium, the two teams were receiving pre-match interviews.

Lakers interview room.

In attendance for the interview were head coach Phil Jackson and the team's star player Kobe Bryant.

"Phil, Jiang Chen played amazingly in the last game and helped the Lakers turn the game around. Will you let Jiang Chen play an important role in this game?"

A reporter asked.

"Maybe! I will give Jiang Chen a few minutes of playing time and observe his performance. I hope he can continue his hot form from the last game."

Phil narrowed his eyes and spoke lightly, making it impossible to see what he was thinking.

The reporters nodded.

Although Jiang Chen acted very impressive in the post-match interview, everyone still had doubts.

Now Phil's words sounded normal.

What the hell was that post-game interview about last game? They said Jiang Chen could become another Kobe!

It's outrageous.

If you perform well, stay on the court; if you perform poorly, get substituted.

The NBA arena is so cruel, not to mention that this is the seventh game of the finals. The head coach will definitely be very cautious in using players.

The ones who can really decide the course of the game are ace players like Kobe and Gasol.

As for this undrafted player, he might be substituted out after playing for a few minutes and making two three-pointers.

Of course, Jiang Chen may also make several three-pointers in a row like he did in the last game and perform amazingly.

But everyone knows that the probability of this happening is too small!

The probability is even smaller than winning the lottery.

"Phil, in light of the Celtics' strong performance in the last game, did you make any adjustments?"

A reporter asked.

As we all know, the Lakers were completely beaten in the last game and fell behind by 33 points at one point. If it weren't for the sudden outbreak of that undrafted Chinese player, the Celtics would have been parading in Boston holding the championship trophy.

Where does the tiebreaker come from?

"Of course, I have made some adjustments to the team's lineup, and I believe the new lineup will bring victory to the team."

Phil still said calmly.

The reporters frowned.

New lineup? What lineup?

That's what I said!

This old fox always throws smoke bombs and never reveals any useful information.

"Kobe, your performance in this series is very unstable. Is it the injury that affects you? Or is it the Celtics' defense that affects you? In the upcoming Game 7, are you worried about your condition?"

A reporter asked, changing the interview subject.

"NO! No worries! I am eager to win. No matter what my condition is, I will try my best to win the game."

Kobe said briefly, his expression grim.

"You also heard what Jiang Chen said in the post-match interview last game. Do you think he can fulfill those promises?"

A reporter asked.

"Of course! He doesn't look like he's joking!"

"I'm looking forward to it."

Kobe said, shrugging his shoulders with a hint of a smile on his face.

Thinking of Jiang Chen's performance in the training match, I felt excited.

This Chinese undrafted player might be able to put on a stunning performance in tonight's Game 7.

???

The reporters were bewildered.

Is this crazy desire to win the championship?

Kobe Bryant, the NBA's top star, actually expects an undrafted player to help the team?

It's unbelievable!

By the way, didn't Phil just say that he would only give Jiang Chen a few minutes of playing time?

Whose words are more credible?

The reporters were a little confused.

Asking for a long time is equivalent to not asking at all.

We can only find out on the field...

...

Celtics interview room.

"Rivers, in the upcoming game, who do you think is the biggest threat to you?"

A reporter asked.

"Kobe Bryant, no doubt about it! He is one of the greatest scorers in history. We must find a way to limit his performance."

Rivers said, with admiration in his tone.

Even as an opponent, Kobe deserves respect.

"What about Jiang Chen?"

A reporter asked.

"Are you kidding me?"

Rivers made an extremely exaggerated expression, expressing his shock at the reporter's question.

"I don't think Jiang Chen can outperform Kobe."

He continued, a confident look on his face.

Lack of preparation in the last game allowed this undrafted Chinese player to do whatever he wanted on the court.

We have already made a targeted defensive strategy for this game. As long as this undrafted player appears on the court, the defense will definitely make him question his life!

The reporters also laughed when they heard it.

This question is really redundant. How can Jiang Chen be compared with Kobe?

"Ray Allen, Jiang Chen said he would make 10 three-pointers again in this game. What do you think of this?"

The reporter asked.

"As a three-point shooter who has played in the NBA for more than a decade, I know very well how difficult it is to make 10 three-pointers in a game!"

"Making 10 three-pointers in two consecutive games has never happened in the entire history of the NBA."

"It's a huge challenge!"

"I didn't do it, and Reggie Miller didn't do it either."

"As for Jiang Chen... Goddess of Luck has already come once. If she comes a second time, wouldn't that be too unfair to us?"

Ray Allen said in a deep voice, without saying it directly, but his meaning was very clear.

He didn't do it, Reggie Miller didn't do it, so it's even more impossible for Jiang Chen to do it.

Even if Jiang Chen made 10 three-pointers, it was because of luck, not strength.

"Are you confident that you can make more three-pointers than Jiang Chen in this game?"

The reporter continued to ask.

"There is no doubt that the three-point shot is my weapon to gain a foothold in the NBA!"

Ray Allen said this with confidence and dominance.

After asking a few more questions, the reporters ended their pre-match interviews.

...

Afterwards, the Celtics and Lakers changed their clothes in the locker room and ran to the court through the player tunnel.

Under the spotlight, every player had a serious expression, with a flaming fighting spirit in their eyes.

In the ocean of green, the Lakers' purple and gold color scheme seems a little lonely, as if it is surrounded.

There was a great noise.

In this depressing atmosphere, the seventh game to decide the championship is about to begin!!
