Mountain Peak System: a Path to NBA-Chapter 575 - 191: The Only Path to Choose—Either Become a God or Be Eternally Disgraced

It's over, it's all over.

As Qin Yue personally shattered the Lakers players' will to resist, this fourth game, which would influence the direction of the series, ended with the Warriors conquering the Staples Center.

Final score, 128 to 110.

Post-game interview session.

Warriors head coach Mike Malone couldn't wait to show off the achievements Qin Yue established on this night to the world.

"He scored 61 points, 20 rebounds, 14 assists, 5 blocks, and 2 steals for us. What an incredible stat line is that?" Malone said proudly, "In the history of the NBA, no one has ever achieved a '60+20+10' in a single game, but in my opinion, these numbers still don't reflect his value in the game!"

After a pause, Malone added, "His offense, his defense, and his mental willpower. Believe me, the stats can only tell you what kind of game the Messiah played, but only we know, in what way he's leading us forward!"

"If a '60+20+10' Messiah can't convince you that he's surpassed Michael Jordan, then I can only say, Michael Jordan should be thankful that the Messiah was born ten years later." Kwame Brown bluntly stated, "If Michael and the Messiah were in the same era, I have no doubt Michael would end up like Kobe tonight."

"To be honest, this might be the most relaxing playoff journey I've ever experienced." Two-time MVP winner Steve Nash admitted, "61 points, 20 rebounds, 14 assists? I need to go back to the 2K game to see if I can achieve such a stat line."

Although at the Staples Center, Qin Yue always does something astonishing.

But compared to the past, Qin Yue's "60+" triple-double for the Warriors in this fourth game of the Western Conference Finals this year is special in both significance and value.

The entire North American sports circle was in an uproar after this game ended.

The recovered Qin Yue once again proved to the world that he is the best player of this era.

With splendid stats, he led the Warriors to break through the defending champion Lakers' home court.

Leading 3-1, no one doubts they will step over the Lakers' body to reach this year's finals.

Lakers head coach Phil Jackson said helplessly after the game: "You saw it, Kobe played his most perfect game in the last two years, scoring 48 points, 11 rebounds, 11 assists for us. But even so, we still couldn't stop them, which only shows that they deserved this victory more than us."

If time could turn back...

The Jackson who could go back to the past would definitely tell the then bullied Jordan by the Pistons why the Pistons could only stop him from scoring on the court by beating him to death.

Because after personally experiencing this fourth game of the Western Conference Finals, Jackson finally understood Chuck Daly's feelings back then.

When a god is on the opposite side—mortals are destined to be small, no matter what resistance mortals try to make, gods will use unheard-of ways to tell mortals the difference between gods and mortals.

For example, Qin Yue's one-on-five windmill dunk that completely shattered the Lakers' fighting spirit.

This dunk, so far, can be called the best shot of Qin Yue's career, and even after the game, it still shook Jackson's weathered heart.

Kobe did not attend the post-game interview after the fourth game.

And witnessing in person how Qin Yue destroyed the Lakers, LeBron James was even more determined to make that major decision this summer.

Qin Yue has ascended to the throne of gods.

James knows very well that he needs stronger teammates and a team that doesn't fear the super luxury tax to participate in the upcoming competition.

Regrettably, no matter how willing Cavaliers owner Daniel Gilbert is to spend on the Cavaliers, Cleveland can't provide James with all he needs.

So, James must enter the free-agent market to find a team that can compete with Qin Yue.

Maybe leaving Cleveland will make James lose his foundation.

But if he chooses not to leave Cleveland, James knows he might lose everything.

...

A day later, the fifth game of the Western Conference Finals between the Lakers and the Warriors returned to Oracle Arena.

Unwilling to be eliminated like this, Kobe and the Lakers made a stubborn resistance in Oakland.

Due to a poor shooting performance...

This could potentially be Qin Yue's worst game in personal offense since entering the playoffs.

Compared to those games where teammates were locked down...

In the fifth game, seeing Qin Yue repeatedly missing shots, the Lakers immediately targeted him with a sag-back defense and inside double-teaming strategy to limit his personal attacks.

This made Qin Yue almost transform into an "Antetokounmpo encountering anti-Greek armor" during the game.

However, since it's almost, that also means Qin Yue eventually used his command tower attributes to break the deadlock for the Warriors.

On the court, facing the Lakers' relentless defense, Qin Yue, not foolish enough to continue challenging the basket like a young someone Kobe, frequently utilized his draw on the Lakers' defense to create a lot of open shooting opportunities for his teammates.

Back at Oracle Arena, Stephen Curry became the biggest beneficiary, scoring 36 points, with 9 of 15 field goals, 6 of 9 three-pointers, and shooting 12 free throws without missing, contributing 4 rebounds and 2 assists.
