Chapter 175 Tactical Adjustment

Chapter 175 Tactical Adjustment (Ten Thousand Words Chapter)
After G4 of the Western Conference finals, the media of Amelia came to their senses. The big score was 2:2, and the two sides won two out of three games. The Lakers have two home games. This is the rhythm of the Yellow-Green War. !
All media reporters and ball critics began to praise Phil Jackson's tactical arrangements wildly, praised the tough performance of the Lakers Twin Towers, and paid tribute to Kobe Bryant's sacrifice of personal data!

加索尔本场比赛再次拿到29分11篮板5助攻2失误,19中11,罚球10中7,完全统治了内线。

而科比-布莱恩特15中7,拿到了21分5篮板5助攻2失误,从球权分配上来看,科比确实减少了自己的出手数.
As the broadcaster of the Western Conference Finals, TNT just finished the game, and Ernie Johnson, Kenny Smith, and Charles Barkley immediately began to comment on the game.

Of the three, Charles Barkley was the happiest, not because the Lakers won, but because the big man played an important role in the game.

"Guys, like I said before, jump shots don't win championships! Defense, rebounding, big men are the cornerstone of the team, 49:37 rebounds, the Lakers won by 12 rebounds above!"

Host Ernie Johnson heard what Charles Barkley said, and immediately asked Kenny Smith on the left:

"Kenny, what Charles said is very reasonable. What do you think of this game? As we predicted before, do you think the two sides will reach the tiebreaker in this round of the series?"

"Rebounds are very important, but the Thunder almost won the game. Kayce made 20 of 10 in this game, including 7 of 3 three-pointers and 4 of 4 free throws. He scored 27 points, 6 rebounds and 5 assists. Wen 20 points, Russell 23 points, the trio still performed very well!"

"The Thunder are just out of shape. They're missing a big man. I think this series will go to 7. Both teams will defend their home courts. The Lakers have found a way to win. They Will not continue to make mistakes, G7 physical fitness is the key."

After the host Ernie Johnson heard what the two said, he asked another question:
"Guys, what do you think of Kobe's performance in this series, killing four sides in the Western Conference semifinals, but facing a rookie team like the Thunder, he failed to show dominance on the perimeter. What do you guys think?"

"Kobe made the right choice. Facing a team with outstanding perimeter talent like the Thunder, giving the ball to the big man is what he should do! I'm glad to see Kobe did this."

"But I also give credit to Kayce's defense. I think he's eligible for the All-Defensive Team."

Charles Barkley naturally knew that Kobe had only performed well in G2 in this round of the series, so he didn't praise Kobe too much.

"I agree with Chuck. As the leader of the team, Kobe has done his job well. We all know that he has the ability to score 40 points in a game. But obviously, when the interior is dominant, Giving the ball to the big guy is the best option."

The host Ernie Johnson heard the comments of the two without any explosive points, and asked a sharp question again:

"Do you think Kayce's performance has surpassed Kobe? We saw the Lakers deal with Kayce with different defenders and different defensive methods, but the boy responded successfully. In this round of the series, you think the two Who is better?"

"I think Kobe performed better. We can't just look at the statistics. Kobe led the team to win away games when they were behind 1:2. The statistics can't fully reflect Kobe's role!"

When Kenny Smith heard what Charles Barkley said, he immediately retorted:

"You're talking nonsense, man! Kayce's performance is obviously better. Not only can he score on his own, but he also organizes the team's offense. The defense also restrains Kobe. The two sides just tied 2:2. Don't forget that Kayce is still a first-year rookie!"

"Restrict Kobe? I don't agree with your point of view at all. Kobe just restrained his desire to attack, and the Thunder's defense can't restrict him."

"Kobe's defensive shooting percentage against Kayce has not been high. Although there are no detailed technical statistics, Kobe is restricted by Kayce."

"Don't look at those shit stats, Kobe is often faced with flanking defense!"

"Kayce was also double-teamed by the Lakers, but he was better than Kobe on the offensive end!"

The host Ernie Johnson saw that the two started to fight again, and suddenly smiled secretly, saying that the game is still too boring, and it is more topical to talk about which player performed better. Fans like to compare Star players on both sides.

On May 5, all fans turned their attention to the Eastern Conference Finals again. The Celtics had already led the Magic 26:3. After arriving at home, the Magic's three-pointer showed off again.

25 of 13, 52% of the three-pointers, the Magic completely shot the Celtics from the outside, the Big Three performed mediocre, but Rajon Rondo and Rasheed Wallace played well , but it doesn't help the Celtics win away.

In the end, at 92:113, the Magic team pulled back a victory at home, and the big score came to 3:2. After the game, the winning Magic team did not receive too much praise.

Everyone thinks that the Celtics are giving up a game tactically, and they will advance to the finals in the next game, the Magic?It is no longer worthy of everyone's attention, and there is no suspense in this round of the series.

Amerika's media reporters and TNT broadcasters began to warm up the battle of Tianwangshan in the Western Conference finals early. Tomorrow night's game will become the biggest hot spot in the league. President David Stern is also very satisfied with the referee's call and will not play Tianwangshan , how can there be ratings?

On the morning of May 5, everyone in the Thunder team started recovery training again. Since arriving in Los Angeles yesterday, all the team's training has focused on recovery of physical fitness. The coaching staff was worried. Durant and Jeff Green's physical fitness The situation is still not ideal.

Li Ze has no physical troubles at all. At this time, he was revived again with full blood, and he carried out back-to-back footwork training full of energy. In the G4 game, he once again won a new bronze badge:
Achievement Badge [Back Punisher]: 6/50
Improve the player's back hit success rate.

Li Ze is very satisfied with the simple and crude bonus effect. He has gradually realized the true role of the badge. The bonus effect is actually to improve his basketball intuition and allow him to use technical moves more freely on the court.

DJ-White and Kyle Weaver, members of the Thunder team's atmosphere team, were serving as Li Ze's sparring partner at this time. Li Ze, who received the ball from the waist, faced the defense, and after a back-to-back hit, he quickly turned around and shot a jumper.

"唰" hit easily.

Then Li Ze began to show off his dreamy footsteps again and again, directly making the two members of the atmosphere group dumbfounded. In fact, everyone in the Thunder team is no stranger to it. When it came to the playoffs, everyone knew that Li Ze was the team member. Golden thighs.

And from the performance point of view, Durant has become the second child, with poor physical fitness and malaise!Look at Li Ze, he defends with all his strength in every game, but the offensive end is still strong. There is also a gap between geniuses
Durant was just doing simple three-point shooting training on the sidelines. Seeing that Li Ze was still full of energy, he couldn't help thinking of lemons:

"It's really a beast. It's a high-intensity game. I can recover after a night of sleep. Is there any reason for this? God is too partial."

The assistant coach was very satisfied when he saw Li Ze's state, and when he saw the serious look on the head coach Brooks' face, he immediately began to comfort him:

"Don't worry, Scott, the team uniform team has done a good job. In the next game, Krstic should be able to return. Even if G5 loses, we still have a good chance of winning at home."

Brooks heard the assistant coach's comfort, sighed, and then said:
"In the middle of the season, we really should have traded a big player. Maybe the management didn't expect to reach the Western Conference Finals this year. Our lineup is lagging behind, and there is a problem with the internal reserves."

"In the last game, I was responsible for the loss. Facing the Lakers' inside attack, the lineup arrangement was still too conservative. I hope tonight's game can have a good result."

"Keep it normal, Scott, we've had a very successful season, and regardless of the outcome of this series, I believe the future will be ours."

On the night of the 27th, the Staples Arena was full of people. Compared with the previous two home games, the battle of Tianwangshan was more eye-catching. Many young stars bought tickets in the front row and deliberately took a look at the Western Conference. The hot spot of the final.

TNT's on-site commentator Kevin Harlan and guest Reggie Miller came to the scene early, and the game was about to start. At this time, the two also chatted about the starting content of the two sides:
"It seems that the Thunder did not intend to mention Collison to the starting lineup. Coach Brooks still chose to attack. Man, do you think the Thunder should let two big men start and strengthen rebound protection?"

When Reggie Miller heard what Kevin Harlan said, he immediately responded with a smile:
"Actually, none of the Thunder's insiders are taller than 2 meters. What's more, it's an away game, and offense is more important. Both sides have continued the starting lineup of the previous game. This round of the series has played 10 games. I I believe that there are no secrets between the two sides now!"

"The Thunder really had a fantastic season, and I'm looking forward to the boys continuing to create miracles tonight. Wow! The Staples Center is finally buzzing. I like the atmosphere!"

At this time, the lights on the scene dimmed, and the home DJ introduced the players of the home team to play in a low and hoarse voice. After Gasol and Kobe came on the stage, the Lakers fans began to cheer for the two, and the atmosphere was hot.

"Listen, guys! We've got to play defense, push through screens, give them physicality, and we've got to win tonight!"

Everyone on the Lakers gathered together, and Kobe said loudly with a serious expression, he finally tied the score to 2:2, and the initiative returned to his own hands, Kobe wants to end this round of the series as soon as possible in order to have more rest time.

The Thunder team in the away game is wearing a blue uniform today. Li Ze continues to be fully armed tonight, with arm guards, elbow pads, and knee pads all on. In order to make himself look more oppressive, Li Ze chose a black color scheme, and He also specially wore a black braces, a real villain outfit.
The Lakers fans at the Staples Center did not welcome Li Ze very much. When he came out, there was a huge booing immediately.

In the battle of Tianwangshan, the players on both sides felt tremendous pressure. After all, the laws of history tell the world that if you win Tianwangshan, you will have a great possibility to advance to the finals. Both sides are warming up silently until the referee signals everyone to come to the venue central.

After everyone made a brief statement, Ibaka and Bynum stood in the middle circle and prepared to jump the ball. At the same time, the Lakers fans on the scene also began to cheer for the home team loudly:

"Let's go Lakers! Let's go Lakers! Let's go Lakers!"

"Snapped"

Blessed by the home atmosphere, Bynum successfully jumped to the possession of the ball for the Lakers. Fisher quickly dribbled across half court, noticed that the Thunder still insisted on their 23-zone defense, and immediately signaled Gasol to come to the free throw line for support.

The Lakers' offense was simple and rough. Noticing that Kobe didn't have a good chance to catch the ball, Gasol immediately passed the ball to Bynum in the low post. Turn around in the direction of the bottom line, throwing the left hand.

"Shua" scored two points from the basket.

When Li Ze saw the Lakers' offensive style, he immediately understood that the opponent must be attacking the inside again. Coach Phil Jackson caught the Thunder's weakness and insisted on it, but it has to be said that the simple and rough tactics, Very effective indeed.

The Thunder sent out the baseline ball quickly. After halftime, they noticed that Durant was entangled with Artest again, and hurriedly signaled Ibaka to put up the pick-and-roll. Fisher also knew through the previous 4 games. How to effectively defend the tortoise.

Going off the line around the screen, Bynum immediately raised his hands and came to the line to defend, delaying the turtle's first step, and Fisher quickly switched defenses with Bynum.

On the first attack in the opening game, Turtle did not choose to take a quick stop jump shot, but quickly returned the ball to Ibaka, and then cut inside to take away the defense. In order to ensure that Ibaka could pass the ball easily, Li Ze ran directly to the Receive the ball away from the three-point line.

Kobe did not relax his defense because Li Ze was far away from the three-point line. He was still watching Li Ze's movements closely. Then quickly walk to the left to break through.

Kobe cursed secretly in his heart. It was very difficult to defend against Li Ze's pick-and-roll, because he couldn't guess which side the opponent would choose to break through. Li Ze, who was on the move, felt the defensive pressure from Kobe on his side.

The left hand suddenly dribbled behind the back twice, instantly changing the offensive rhythm, after a very quick crotch change, the right hand dribbled vigorously on the spot, and then made a sudden stop to shoot a jumper.

"唰" made a steady hit in the middle distance.

"Oh!!"

The audience at the Staples Arena saw that Li Ze had swayed away from Kobe and easily scored a mid-range jumper, and they all exclaimed.

Although everyone has seen such a scene several times before, it is still difficult for Lakers fans to accept that their own superstar cannot restrain a rookie player.

"How's the knee feeling? Give it up man, you can't guard me!"

After scoring the goal, Li Ze quickly whispered a trash talk to Kobe, but Kobe didn't respond when he heard Li Ze's words, and immediately ran forward.
Seeing Kobe's reaction, Li Ze felt a little depressed. Now he hoped that Kobe would suddenly enter Mamba mode, and then play crazy singles, so as to reduce some of the Thunder's internal defensive pressure.

But unfortunately Kobe seems to have seen through Li Ze's little trick. Since the last game, except for reminding his teammates to defend, he has been silent throughout the game.

After the first 4 contests, the two sides have thoroughly familiarized themselves with each other's tactical play, and the game quickly entered a state of anxiety. The Lakers continued to frantically attack the inside. When the Thunder's shrinking defense was encountered, they passed the ball to the two wings. Then the three-point line broke the fire.

The Thunder's offense is to cover shots, break through and score the ball. In the first quarter of the game, Li Ze tried his best to distribute the ball to Jeff Green and Ibaka on the outside, trying to open up the offensive space on the field first.

When Durant was double-teamed by Artest and Gasol to stop the ball again in the paint area, Li Ze immediately came to the line to take the pot, noticing that there were only 6 seconds left in the attack time, he quickly released the ball with his right hand, facing Kobe's Defensive, directly accelerate with full force.

After dribbling over the three-point line, he immediately backed up to protect the ball. After turning his back twice, his shoulders shook, and then he turned around and joined the ball, making a false shot.

"buzz"

The "swish" light turned on and the goal was scored, and a two-pointer was scored at the buzzer.

"squeak"

Seeing Li Ze hit such a difficult shot, the head coach Phil Jackson next to him cursed secretly, and then quickly requested a timeout. There were 1 minutes and 6 seconds left in the first quarter, and the two sides played at 58:14. All kinds of noises sounded in the Staples Arena at this time.

"Oh!! Xie Te! Can this TM be thrown in?"

"God! Let's take the lead, Falk, don't let Lee catch the ball!"

TNT's commentator Kevin Harlan was still able to hear the excited scolding of the Lakers fans with a headset, and felt a little funny in his heart. Taking advantage of the timeout, he began to discuss the performance of the two sides at the beginning with the guest Reggie Miller.

"What an incredible lad. Lee looks like Michael Jordan with the addition of three-point shooting. Reggie, what do you think of the two teams playing now?"

When Reggie Miller heard Kevin Harlan's question, he immediately laughed and replied:
"I have to correct you first. Kayce's playing style is more like me. Michael doesn't have that kind of precise three-pointer. I think both sides have insisted on their own tactics. In addition to defense, this game depends on that side. The hit rate is the first to decline!"

"Although I am optimistic about Kayce, unfortunately, basketball is still a 5-person game. Once the physical fitness declines, the Thunder's outside shooting may suddenly misfire. The current referee's whistle scale is very loose, and the defensive pressure on outside players will be even greater."

As in the previous game, with relatively abundant physical fitness, the scores of the two sides rose alternately, but with 1 minutes and 2 seconds left in the first quarter, the Lakers took the lead in making adjustments, replacing Kobe and Fisher. Al, Odom and Shannon - Brown came off the bench.

Coach Brooks continued to beat the main force, and only replaced Durant 1 minute early. At the end of the first quarter, at 1:26, the Thunder team led by two points in the away game.

The audience at the Staples Arena was a bit depressed. With the Lakers occupying an overwhelming advantage inside, the team was still behind by two points, which made everyone really unhappy
During the break during the festival, Li Ze, who was sitting on the bench, was drinking water. The Lakers changed their defensive strategy against him. You can throw the ball into the basket, but I will consume a lot of your energy. Phil Jackson The coach used cannon fodder tactics at the beginning.

Thinking of the Lakers outsiders stalking him, Li Ze became ruthless in his heart:

"Exhausting stamina? You underestimate me, let's see who falls first!"

In the following game, the two sides fought hand-to-hand again. Obviously, the referee was instructed by the league. In this game, the whistle-blowing scale was completely relaxed, and many physical contacts would not sound the whistle at all.

The 2nd and 3rd quarters were extremely smooth. Everyone understood the importance of the Tianwangshan battle. The three-man team of the Thunder team also worked hard. After all, as long as they win this game, they will return to the next game. In Oklahoma City, no one wants to play Game [-].

With 4 minutes and 2 seconds left in the fourth quarter, Gasol made two free throws, and the Lakers led by 12 points for the first time in this game. At this time, the head coach Phil Jackson stood on the sidelines and reminded himself loudly Team members:
"32 zone defense! Stay focused! Defend! Defend!"

The audience at the Staples Arena also saw the dawn of victory. Led by the live DJ, they began to loudly cheer for the home team's defense:
"Defense! Defense! Defense!"

The Thunder team attacked, and Durant was completely sluggish at this time. In this game, he was entangled by Artest's muscular defense and his legs were weak. Guigui also knew the situation of his teammates and noticed that Li Ze was once again in the waist. The bit turned his back to ask for the ball, and immediately passed the ball to Li Ze, and at the same time signaled his teammates to clear the side.

After catching the ball with his back, Li Ze also handled the ball very quickly. He knew that the Lakers' double-team defense would soon be in place. After receiving the ball, his body leaned back suddenly, hitting Kobe's chest hard, and his shoulders shook. After the feint, he quickly released the ball with his left hand and quickly wiped Kobe's defense.

Noticing that Gasol's defense had begun to move towards the baseline, Li Ze took a step with the ball in his left hand, then exerted force with his feet, facing Kobe's block, and shot a fallback jumper.

"唰" made a steady hit in the middle distance.

"Oh!!"

The audience at the Staples Arena let out a low cry instantly. This kind of scene keeps happening in the game, and it is very worrying to watch.
When everyone in the Lakers saw Li Ze hit this shot, their scalps went numb. There are less than 2 minutes left in the game. If they fail to score in the next round, will they be overtaken again?

After Fisher dribbled for half the court, the Lakers first passed the ball continuously from the outside, and then scored and played. But at this time, the Thunder's defense was also strong. The gap was only 2 points. They defended one round after another. Everyone believes that Li Ze can still Will hit the shot.

There are 6 seconds left in the attack time. No one in the Lakers team wants to take responsibility. In the end, Kobe took the blame. After catching the ball, he faced Li Ze's defense. With a lot of strength, he slapped his back twice, then turned around and shot a jumper.

"Shua" responded and the ball was scored.

Leaning back too much, Kobe, who lost his center of gravity, fell to the ground, but seeing that he successfully hit the shot, Kobe finally stopped pretending to be silent, and immediately stood up excitedly, punching and roaring loudly.

"Oh hoo!!"

"what!!"

The audience at the Staples Arena also shouted excitedly, their own superstar is still reliable!
With 1 minute and 26 seconds left in the game, the Thunder quickly sent the baseline ball, and the turtle quickly passed the ball to Li Ze just after halftime, but at this time the Lakers' defense was completely crazy.

After seeing Li Ze receiving the ball, Fisher immediately stepped forward to double-team, Li Ze had to return the ball to Guigui, and made an offensive gesture to his teammates, signaling a double-screen tactic.

"Defense! Defense! Defense!"

The audience at the scene began to cheer for the home team's defense crazily. The victory is close at hand!
With 7 seconds left in the attack time, Li Ze, who made a big circle, successfully received a pass from the turtle outside the left three-point line by virtue of the double screen of Jeff Green and Ibaka. Without hesitation, Li Ze made a quick three-pointer from a long distance.

"Shua" three-pointer hollow into the net.

"Bang! Bang! Lee made a successful three-pointer! The Thunder still have a chance!"

Seeing Li Ze hit a shot, Kevin Harlan instantly raised the volume of his commentary, and he almost jumped up excitedly
"what!!"

"Oh!!"

Seeing Li Ze make this three-pointer, everyone on the Thunder bench jumped up, everyone shouted excitedly, and the audience at the Staples Arena exclaimed again, the point difference returned to 1 point.
Coach Phil Jackson made a bold decision at this time. He did not choose to pause, but signaled Kobe to attack directly. Amid the cheers of the fans, Kobe played Gasol once at a position far away from the three-point line. High pick and roll.

The moment he got rid of Li Ze's defensive entanglement, Kobe took a step with the ball in his right hand, and then made a jump shot from outside the three-point line.

"Shua" responded and scored again.

"Wow!!"

Throwing this three-pointer, Kobe kept throwing his fists in celebration, and at the same time screamed excitedly. At this point in the game, Kobe couldn't hold back at all, this game is too difficult
"squeak"

Head coach Brooks quickly requested a timeout, and with 49 seconds left in the game, he took out the tactical version he had prepared in advance, and shouted to his players:
"When there is a chance to shoot decisively! We have no energy to continue to play overtime, all 5 fouls inside, so, guys, let's shoot! Play double screens again, Kevin, get your breath, if Kayce gets caught Clip, you might get a shot from beyond the arc!"

"Don't think about winning or losing! Serve, move, shoot, even if you don't make a shot, steal it immediately and foul immediately!"

This time, everyone in the Thunder team nodded subconsciously. Their physical fitness had bottomed out, and everyone was speechless. Durant adjusted his breathing, but he always felt as if his body was on fire, and there was still a faint feeling under his feet. Soft.

After returning from the timeout, the players from both sides were already torn together on the field, and there were various small movements in their hands.

"squeak"

The referee blew the whistle, and Li Ze relied on the cover of Jeff Green and Ibaka to quickly pop out. Artest naturally noticed that Kobe was half a beat behind in chasing and defending, and immediately gave up his defender. Pounce on Li Ze.

Turtle naturally discovered the defensive movement of the Lakers, and quickly sent the ball to Durant at the far end. After the latter received the ball, he shot a jumper from outside the three-point line.

"Bang" regrets striking the iron.

After Gasol protected the rebound, the Thunder chose to foul, and the two sides started a penalty shootout ahead of schedule. Although the Thunder got a chance for a three-pointer afterwards, the open tortoise still hit the iron, and the game completely lost suspense.

At 92:98, the Lakers once again won the Tianwangshan battle at home by relying on their strong inside line.

After the game, Li Ze comforted Durant and Guigui. In the last two games, the Thunder had a solid three-point shot. Except for Li Ze, everyone's shooting percentage was less than [-]%.
"Wow! This may be the best game of the 09-10 season. The defending champion was cornered by a rookie team. Will it get back [-]%?"

Kevin Harlan calmed himself down, and then asked Reggie Miller beside him.

"Of course, I know the shooters. Except for Kayce who scored 32 points and made 8 of 3 three-pointers, the Thunder's outside shots were completely off target in the second half! But after returning home, they will bottom out!"

"Durant has been in a slump for two consecutive games, and this game only scored 2 points. This is obviously not his normal level. In two games, he made 20 of 10 three-pointers. I believe that after he returns to Oklahoma City, I will adjust myself."

Reggie Miller supports Durant, which is also the consensus of the America media. Although Durant is a bit ugly and has a bad temperament, everyone is more tolerant of the registered permanent residence players. After all, he is still a rookie.
"I'm already looking forward to the next game! This series is really exciting!"

On May 5th, the fans just recalled the battle of Tianwangshan in the West last night, and G28 of the Eastern Conference Finals will also be staged tonight.

Before the game, Amelia's media reporters and critics predicted that the Celtics would advance at home, and the result was not unexpected. The Celtics, with the stable performance of the Big Three, beat the Magic at home at 84:96. Team.

Although Warcraft Howard scored a double-double of 28 points and 12 rebounds, he was still criticized by many people after the game. As for Vince Carter, this round of the series was completely blown away by Paul Pierce. Everyone has already expelled him The ranks of superstars are gone.

Although the Celtics advanced to the finals, few media reporters mentioned the yellow-green battle this time. The Thunder team left a deep impression on everyone in the Tianwangshan battle.

Everyone believed that if Kobe had missed the last two shots, the result of the game might have been completely different. Li Ze is indeed terrifyingly strong!
On May 5th, G29 of the Western Conference finals officially started. The two teams simply rested for two days. Tonight's game is also a test of physical fitness, but for the Thunder, they finally waited for Krstic's return.

"How do you feel, Nenad? It's really great to be able to catch up with tonight's game!"

The Thunder's restorative training session just ended in the afternoon, and Li Ze happily greeted Krstic next to him.

"I recovered completely! In fact, it only took about 4 days. I felt that I was completely recovered, but the league's head injury return process is too cumbersome. Fortunately, the team's uniform team helped a lot!"

Kostic has watched the team lose consecutively in the past few days, and he is also very anxious, but if the concussion can return within 10 days, he has already gone through a special channel.

"We finally have a complete lineup, Shet! I swear, I will throw that damn three-pointer in. During the offseason, I must exercise my physical fitness!"

In the training session in the afternoon, Durant silently shot three-pointers from the sidelines. He was very dissatisfied with his shooting performance in the two games. Although his physical condition was still worrying, Durant believed that he should bottom out and rebound.

"We should have established a lead in the first half like in the previous games. I can feel that the Lakers have physical problems, but they continuously hit the ball inside and can easily stand on the free throw line. Slowed down the pace of the game!"

Turtle performed well in the last game, scoring 24 points, the second highest in the team. Although he missed an open three-pointer in the end, that was not what he was good at. Stamina monsters did occupy a large part of the playoffs. big advantage.

When Li Ze heard Guigui's words, he immediately nodded in agreement and said:

"The game has been played for 5 games. Both sides have adapted to their respective defenses. They really should speed up. The old guys of the Lakers will definitely not be able to keep up with us!"

The Ford Center arena is packed tonight, and the Oklahoma City fans are currently in a state of rage. Although they are 2:3 behind, they believe that the team will be able to equalize the score after returning home.

Most of the fans entered the arena early and put on cheering T-shirts prepared in advance by the uniform team. This time the arena has turned into a sea of ​​blue and white. Many fans are still holding cheering slogans. This is the last home game of the season. Yes, the Oklahoma City fans gave all their enthusiasm!
Before the game, in the Thunder locker room, Coach Brooks once again gave all the players a bowl of thick chicken soup:

"I'm so proud of your performance! If someone told me that a team with 23 wins last season could reach the Western Conference Finals in the new season and fight the defending champion in 5 games, I would definitely think him crazy!"

"But we did such an incredible thing! Tonight will be our last home game in Oklahoma City. I hope everyone can play a good game. All Oklahoma City fans are watching us and showing our offense. Bar!"

"Increase the number of possessions, finish the offense in 14 seconds, you have the ability to do this! We will completely destroy the Lakers, they are tired, believe me guys, they really can't run! Come on! Hold our home court! "

"Yeah! Wan, spit, break, logger!"

When the on-site DJ introduced the home team, the Ford Center Arena was already buzzing. For the last home game, everyone went berserk!

Everyone in the Lakers team in the player tunnel heard the loud noises coming from their ears, and felt the heavy pressure in their hearts. No one likes to play at the opponent's home court, especially a home court like tonight, it is simply a nightmare.
In the final warm-up stage before the game, the players of both teams were silent and moved their bodies silently. Of course the Lakers wanted to reach the finals ahead of schedule, and the Thunder didn’t want to lose at home. Everyone was accumulating strength Waiting for the outbreak.

When the referee signaled the players from both sides to come to the center of the court, everyone simply nodded their heads in greeting, and then all stared closely at the two jumping balls.

Krstic and Bynum stood in the center circle, their knees slightly bent, and they watched the ball in the hands of the referee!At the same time, the audience at the Ford Center Arena also began to cheer for the home team:

"OKC! OKC! OKC!"

"Snapped!!"

Krstic, who had rested for many days, successfully jumped to the ball for the Thunder. Turtle quickly dribbled across the half court. Li Ze first made a cross screen with Jeff Green, and then used Krstic's back screen to quickly bounce out. to the three-point line.

After receiving the pass from Guigui, Li Ze didn't make any adjustments, and threw the ball as soon as he got it, making a quick shot from outside the three-point line.

"Shua" three-point hollow net.

"what!!"

The audience at the scene immediately cheered for Li Ze's three-pointer, and the atmosphere on the scene became violent in an instant. Then, everyone started to cheer for the home team's defense loudly:
"Defense! Defense! Defense!"

Li Ze, who quickly retreated to the defense, seemed to feel that the Lakers' defensive strength had dropped by a level. The opponent did not chase him desperately, but thinking of how fiercely they fought in the last game, the old guys might not be able to withstand it physically.

Fisher dribbled slowly across the half court. Facing the Thunder's 23 zone defense, Gasol quickly came to the free throw line to respond, and directly handed the ball to Bynum in the low post. The latter faced Krstic's defense. After two slaps, Durant's defense quickly retracted.

Bynum quickly threw the ball to Artest on the outside, but the tortoise on the line defense kept aiming at the opponent's movement, predicted the pass in advance, directly copied the ball in his hand, and found the fast-downer with a long flick. Li Ze.

After receiving the ball, Li Ze firmly protected the ball, and rushed across the half court with the ball in his left hand. Kobe at his side was still relentlessly chasing the ball, but Li Ze continued to accelerate the dribble. After entering the paint area, Li Ze suddenly dribbled the ball behind his back with his left hand , followed by a nimble jump, shook Kobe away, and succeeded in picking the basket with his right hand.

"Oh ah!!"

Li Ze successfully borrowed Jamal Crawford's signature move. Such a wonderful goal ignited the atmosphere of the scene again. It's a wonderful start!
Kobe looked at Li Ze, who quickly returned to the defense, and remained silent. After quickly sending the baseline ball to Fisher, he immediately ran to the frontcourt slowly.

After more than three minutes of the game, Coach Brooks looked a little puzzled from the sidelines. He didn't expect the Lakers' defensive oppression to drop so much suddenly. The opponent didn't seem to want to invest too much energy on the defensive end.

The defensive pressure plummeted, and Durant finally became active. With the help of Kostic to cover the elbow area on the right side of the free throw line, he successfully received a tortoise pass from outside the three-point line after a simple back run. Without adjustment, the three-pointer Outside the line jump shot shot.

"Shua" three-pointer hollow into the net.

This is the first time Durant hit a three-pointer after scoring 10 for 0. After scoring, Durant was also extremely excited, beating his chest and roaring!

In the next few minutes, the Thunder's offense became smoother and smoother. Dreaming back to G1, Jeff Green also began to shoot continuously from outside the three-point line.

Coach Phil Jackson did not make too many adjustments. Instead, he replaced Kobe and Gasol at 3 minutes and 16 seconds. Facing the Thunder's indiscriminate bombardment from outside, he appeared extremely calm.

At 24:36, the Thunder played a mercury-like offense in the first quarter and directly led by 1 points.

But during the break, Li Ze was sitting on the bench, but he felt like he was punching cotton. Obviously, the Lakers didn't go all out, and the old man Phil Jackson was definitely messing around!
"What kind of show operation is this? Tactical adjustment? Do the Lakers want to play the tiebreaker so much?"
