Live Bar, May 9th news the Lakers beat the Warriors 104-101 at home today, leading the 3-1 Series and winning the match point. After the game, Lakers player Reeves revealed in an interview with the media that before the G2 Game, he had an exchange with Peyton’s father, the NBA celebrity “glove” Peyton.
Reeves did not perform well in G2 (he scored 7 points, 4 rebounds and 2 assists in 11 shots), and the Lakers also lost a big score. When he was carrying food in his bag after the game, when walking to the team bus, old Peyton stopped the young man.
Old Peyton said to Reeves, “Come here, Reeves. I like you very much. You are a man. I like this. I like that you have such courage.”
Reeves replied, “Thank you.”
Speaking of the words old Peyton gave himself, Reeves said: “To be honest, I didn’t care so much at that time because I was still angry with the game. But afterwards, after I got on the bus, I realized, ‘wait! Old Peyton is the most famous tough guy. He is a very, very successful basketball player and defender. He can recognize that my work is very special. ‘At any time, you can get such recognition from Hall of Fame members or players who have been in the league for a long time, which is of great significance to you.”
Reeves scored 7 out of the 15 shots, including 3 out of 6 points, 4 out of 4 free throws, and 2 rebounds with 21 points, 4 assists. Although he still felt bad in the first half, he got 10 points in the third quarter and 4 points in the last quarter, which finally helped the team win.
