The three days of preparation time passed quickly, the regular season had just died down, and the 2013 playoffs were finally about to start.

If the preseason is a warm-up, and the regular season is training plus entertainment, then the playoffs are really a real fight.

On April 20th, Li Liang slept soundly at home all day after finishing McGrady's mission.

The team's training was naturally absent, and the reporter interviews during training were naturally absent.

He doesn't care, he needs to take a good rest and replenish his energy.

This sleep lasted until the afternoon of April 20, when the sun was almost setting.

Li Liangcai slowly opened his eyes and woke up, looked at the sky outside, and thought, is it morning?

The sun is out?

Looking at the time again, I found that it was already the night of the 20th, and I slept all day.

Getting off the bed, Li Liang had a feeling of being reborn after being exhausted and full of sleep.

The last time I felt this way was when I finished the task of [King of Three Points].

That three-pointer mission took him nearly a month, but the harvest was definitely leveraged.

This time Li Liang abruptly raised the basic defense of the perimeter to 81, which is definitely a huge gain.

Because once the ability value reaches 80 points, it means entering a whole new realm.

This is a state that most NBA players cannot reach.

After waking up, Li Liang stood in front of the window and took a deep breath, feeling as if he had let out all the exhaustion in his chest.

Then a strong sense of hunger hit him, he immediately put on his clothes and leaned against the wall, and went to beg for food from Zhu Shu.

Zhu Shu knew Li Liang well, he would often suddenly fall into a deep sleep all day long.

Then she will be very hungry after waking up, so Zhu Shu will prepare a lot of food in advance.

What Spanish ham, hamburgers, spinach rolls, Italian sausage, and of course a very hungry bowl of ramen.

Freshly pulled and steaming hot.

As for Zhu Shu, a manager who even learned how to make ramen, it is unknown.

Don't overwhelm yourself with too many skills.

Li Liang could smell the smell of food as soon as he got downstairs, and his calves became soft.

After scrambling down, seeing a sumptuous dinner table, without saying a word, I ate a bowl of noodles to pad my stomach first!

"Hey~ These noodles are cooked for Xiaoting, you...yours are not ready yet, oops, eat slowly, don't choke."

Li Liang devoured the meal hungrily, and felt that his hunger was slightly relieved.

Then all kinds of other things are stuffed directly into the mouth.

Zhu Shu asked: "Why did you sleep all day again? Coach Brown called and asked why you didn't go to training. I said you were sleeping."

Li Liangdao: "What did he say?"

"He said to let you sleep well and not to disturb you, just don't forget about tomorrow's game."

Li Liang took a bite of the hamburger and said, "I forgot my surname, and I will never forget tomorrow's game. Hey, where's Wei Dazhi?"

"It's so big that I went out to do interviews today. After the playoffs, there will definitely be more and more news materials."

After not eating for a while, Bai Xiaoting came over, and seeing that her bowl was empty, she knew that Li Liang had eaten the noodles.

Seeing that the two might have a quarrel, Zhu Shu hurriedly smoothed things over and offered to order another bowl for Bai Xiaoting.

Li Liang looked at Bai Xiaoting and said, "Hey, thank you that day, you told me about McGrady's weakness, it was quite useful."

Bai Xiaoting said: "Why, did you dream of playing ball with someone again at night?"

Li Liangdao: "Yes, my game skills have improved again, and now the Lakers are relying more and more on me."

Although Li Liang's words were a bit outrageous, they were also true.

His three-point and inside and outside defense, as well as support and connection, are the most scarce and irreplaceable for the Lakers.

Hearing what Li Liang said, Bai Xiaoting did not sneer, but leaned over and asked quietly: "I heard from Zhu Shu that you may not stay in Los Angeles next season?"

Li Liangdao: "I didn't say anything, who knows what will happen next season, play the playoffs first."

Bai Xiaoting ignored it, and then asked, "If you were not in Los Angeles, which city would you like to go to?"

Li Liangdao: "You don't care about me, I want to go to Beijing, you follow me?"

Bai Xiaoting gave Li Liang a supercilious look, and said nothing.

Li Liang is still hesitating about this, because he dare not do the task of the [City of Angels] book now.

Before getting the next step, he didn't know whether he should stay with the Lakers.

Anyway, let's wait until the end of the season, maybe the system will prompt you?

...

On April 21st, after a whole day of rest, Li Liang got up early in the morning full of energy.

Drive to the Toyota Center for the team's warm-up before the game.

The staff of Toyota Center greeted Li Liang friendly.

Mike Brown had arrived early, and the first thing he said when he saw Li Liang was, "Did you sleep well yesterday?"

Li Liangdao: "Great! I think my defensive ability has improved again!"

Brown nodded and didn't say anything. If you say upgrade, you can upgrade it. I believe it.

The team conducted simple shooting training in the morning, and did not conduct redundant practice, so as to keep the players in good physical condition.

At noon, Li Liang went to that Mexican restaurant again, ate some chicken wraps and vegetable salad, and went back to take a nap.

In the afternoon, the players arrived at the Staples Center ahead of schedule and went to the video hall of the locker room to watch the game video.

The team's video editor compiled some offensive highlights and defensive highlights of the Houston Rockets this season for coaches and players to watch for reference.

This is the third time the Rockets and the Lakers have met in the playoffs in the 21st century, and the eighth time in history.

The two teams are also quite related in history. In the 1970s, Washington knocked Tomjanovich with one punch.

In the 1980s, the Rockets eliminated the Lakers twice to enter the finals. In the 1990s, the Lakers and Rockets rose and fell. The two teams played against each other three times.

In the 21st century, Yao Ming entered the playoffs for the first time in 2004 against the F4 Lakers.

The young and immature Rockets resisted for a while, but were defeated by the seasoned Lakers, losing 1:4 without any suspense.

In 2009, Yao Ming matured and became the core of the Rockets, leading the Rockets to a semifinal battle with the No. 1 Lakers in the Western Conference.

Unfortunately, Yao Ming was reimbursed due to injury, but the Rockets still lost seven games against the Lakers.

That should be the Rockets in Yao Ming's time, the closest to the finals.

After that, the Rockets entered a rebuilding period. After getting Harden this year, they finally returned to the finals!

And their opponent is the Los Angeles Lakers, and they are also the Galaxy Battleship with a luxurious lineup.

After finishing the regular season, the Rockets stayed in Los Angeles directly.

I trained and played here for three days, and the game just started on the 21st.

I don't know if James Harden still has the strength to participate in the playoffs.

After 2 pm on the 21st, the first game of the playoffs kicked off on time.

Before the game officially started, there was a small episode.

After the Lakers sent Darius Morris to the Development League, they re-recruited a Development League player, Andrew Goodlock.

Goodlock played very well in the Development League, because he won the regular season MVP of the NBDL season.

Therefore, at the scene at the Staples Center, the president of NBDL directly awarded the silver MVP trophy to Goodlock.

The Lakers players stood up and applauded him for winning the honor.

Li Liang stood next to Kobe, poked him, and said, "Hey, boss, you said you want to win an MVP this year? Can you get it? You see, your little brother has got it."

Kobe put down his rhetoric at the Washington meeting to win the regular season MVP. To be honest, his performance deserves a regular season MVP trophy.

However, the Heat and James in the Eastern District are too perverted. They won 27 consecutive victories during the season and ended the season with 65 wins and 17 losses, ranking first in the league.

James' various statistics are luxurious, and it is really not easy for Kobe to win James in the vote.

After all, he missed the game for two weeks due to injury, and the Lakers are not as good as the Heat in terms of record.

But it's hard to say, maybe Kobe can win another MVP by relying on his feelings.

Kobe didn't want to discuss this topic with Li Liang, and said, "Boy, get ready for the playoffs, but it's different."

Li Liang snorted and said, "The regular season playoffs are all games, what's the difference?"

Kobe didn't say anything, just gave Li Liang a look.

Li Liang thought, I have played in the finals, I am afraid of the first round!
