NBA: Start with a three-point experience card

Chapter 557 Hand-to-hand battle and strangulation battle!
After the thick eyebrows left the field, the Kings began to slowly overtake the score.

Although their shooting is still not good, Wang Yi's mid-range shooting feels okay today.

When a player shoots 70 percent from the field, you can hardly guard him.

After all, the CIC is the iconic weapon of the basketball god Michael Jordan.

God's weapon, its power can be seen.

In just 3 minutes, Wang Yi made 7 of 6 shots from the field.

The point difference was widened to 7 points.

I thought the Kings would take the opportunity to widen the point difference.

But at this time, the true big-legged brother of the Lakers woke up again.

Hunt time!

He started shooting from beyond the three-point line.

In 1 minute and 13 seconds, he made 4 of 4 three-pointers.

Again.

This melon is sweet.

Fortunately, Wang Yi also kept hitting 2 points.

This kept the point difference at around 3 points.

Gua Ge's sudden outburst made head coach Vogel feel relieved.

Looking at the time, it was more than 40 seconds before Anthony was due to rest.

Vogel belongs to the kind of coach who is a bit old-fashioned.

In terms of player rotation arrangements, there has always been a fixed time.

When the time comes, you have to go down when you should go down, and you have to go up when you should go up.

No matter how the situation on the field changes, you clock in and go to get off work anyway.

However, in these more than 40 seconds, tragedy happened.

Gua Anthony stretched his knee when he was fighting for a rebound.

All he heard was a loud "snap" from his knee.

Then a piercing pain came from the left knee.

Involuntarily fell to the ground.

His left hand was covering his left knee, his teeth were clenched, and his right fist was pounding the floor.

His complexion also turned pale in an instant, and cold sweat trickled down his face.

Obviously, at this time, he was suffering extremely severe pain.

The Lakers players gathered around one after another, and Wang Yi hurried to the side to check.

Although they are competitors on the court, Wang Yi does not want any injuries to other players.

After this inspection, Wang Yi was shocked in his heart.

Gua Ge Fingertips' left knee was swelling up at a speed visible to the naked eye.

And it seems that the knee joints seem to have displaced, which is shocking at a glance.

At this moment, the entire Staples Center was silent.

The Lakers team doctor rushed over and half-kneeled in front of Anthony, asking about his physical condition.

Anthony just shook his head.

The pain made him unable to speak at all.

His right hand continued to slap the floor.

There was no relief from the pain.

After a full 5 minutes of slowing down on the sidelines, only two Lakers players supported Anthony.

Anthony's left leg was half suspended in the air, and only his right leg was on the ground.

Slowly walked towards the player channel.

Wang Yi frowned.

Looking at the shocking appearance of Anthony's knee, this game should not return.

Some people may think this is good news for the Kings.

In this game, the Lakers almost missed the mark collectively. Only Anthony's three-pointer felt hot. It was because of him that the Kings would not be able to open the score.

Now Anthony is injured, which is naturally good news.

But in fact, all Kings players, no one wants to see Anthony injured.

Anyone who has played ball knows that as long as the two sides don't have too much hatred, they don't want to see anyone get hurt.

even an opponent.

After a commotion, the referee signaled both sides to continue the game.

Without Gua Anthony, the Lakers really have no firepower outside.

They can only continue to kill inside.

James breakthrough, Westbrook breakthrough.

The defensive strategy adopted by the Kings is zone defense.

Since you don't have outside firepower, we naturally have to defend the penalty area.

All five stand on the penalty area line.

If you dare to rush in, you will be surrounded by five people.

In this way, James and Westbrook couldn't get in.

In desperation, Vogel had to send Master Huo.

Originally, everyone was shrunk in the restricted area, and the space was extremely narrow. Once the big-armed and thick-waisted Master Huo came up, the inside line became even more crowded.

Ever since, the inside line has almost become a meat grinder.

In this noisy arena, the sound of muscles colliding with each other, and the roars of players rang together.

The Lakers can also shrink their defense at this time.

Since Wang Yi wanted to make a mid-range shot, they kept their defense within the three-point line.

Prevent Wang Yi's mid-range shot, and at the same time prevent the breakthrough of other Kings players.

As a result, it is very difficult for the Kings to score a goal.

Not only did he fail to break into the penalty area, but every time Wang Yi made a mid-range shot, two or three people came to defend him, which also caused his mid-range shot percentage to drop a bit.

The scores of the two sides began to lead alternately.

In just 3 minutes, the score turned ahead as many as 7 times.

At the end of the third quarter, Wang Yi originally wanted to try another three-pointer in the backcourt, but seeing an opportunity in the frontcourt, he threw the ball far to the frontcourt.

Bagley went inside and wanted to dunk.

In the end, he was knocked to the ground by Master Huo who came back.

There was another wave of conflict between the two sides.

Fortunately, the replay later showed that Master Huo was rushing for the ball, not for people.

In the end, Bagley made two free throws.

At the end of the third quarter, the Kings led by only two points.

During the intermission, news came from the Lakers locker room that Gua Ge tore the cruciate ligament in his left knee and was reimbursed for the season.

Hearing this news, both the Lakers and Kings players felt a little heavy.

Gua Ge fans feel even more heavy.

A torn cruciate ligament in the knee is no small injury.

Ordinary people may be able to walk normally after a month or two of rest, and the rest is to slowly recover.

But NBA players have to endure high-intensity confrontation.

If you don't fully recover, you can't play at all.

Therefore, in general, it is conservatively estimated that it will take 9 to 12 months for this kind of injury to recover.

Players like Gua Ge who are in the twilight of their careers will recover more slowly.

Gua Ge will be 40 years old in less than a month.

It is very likely that after this serious injury, he will never be seen on the NBA court again.

This is the tragedy of professional players.

In their professional careers of more than ten or twenty years, they will suffer from injuries all over their bodies.

Many injuries will even plague these players for life.

……

Both sides continued to play in the fourth quarter.

Wang Yi still does not rest for a minute.

Brother Nongmei is back in battle this time.

Wang Yi once again started to stir up Brother Nongmei's anger.

The thick eyebrows were teased by Wang Yi and couldn't help becoming angry again, and the movements began to become louder again.

Although he fouled Bagley and Holmes consecutively after he came on the field, he committed another personal foul in the battle with Holmes.

This is already his fifth personal offense.

In desperation, he had to rest.

In this way, the Lakers lost two of the Big Four, and the Kings suddenly felt a lot easier.

However, due to the previous strangling battle, they consumed too much physical energy, so everyone's hit rate is still not high.

With 4 minutes left in the fourth quarter, the Kings only led by 3 points.

At this time thick eyebrows came on stage.

He seemed to be holding back his energy.

After coming up, he turned over and hit jumpers continuously.

In addition, James also made two turnaround jumpers.

In the end, with 40 seconds left in the game, the Lakers overtook the score and led by only one point.

When it was the king's turn to attack, Wang Yi was surrounded by three people and made a pass error.

At this time, the time is only 25.1 seconds left.
