The happy talker of the NBA

Chapter 158 The chicken soup is very thick!Su Xing's counterattack!

"Shaq, you are the best and most dominant center on the planet. The afro on the other side can't defend you, but the help defense on the other side is very fast. You must complete the attack quickly!"

During the intermission, Lakers head coach Kurt Rambis poured chicken soup on the players.

His mind was messed up about tactical adjustments, and those were handed over to the assistant coach. He could only pour chicken soup and boost morale.

"Glenn, our outside firepower depends on you tonight. You performed very well in the first half, keep it up."

Les nodded after listening.

Stephen Jackson's defense is actually not weak, but he can handle it, and his touch tonight is really good.

In the crowd, Kobe waited for a long time until coach Kurt Rambis turned to him,

"Kobe..." Kurt Rambis thought about his words and said, "You are our future and our outside killer. It would be great if your outside shots could be more stable."

Kobe thought for a while before he figured it out, and then his face darkened even more.

What the coach means is that he can't do it right now, his outside shooting is rubbish...

Leaving aside Kobe, Kurt Rambis's chicken soup effect is still good. At least most Lakers players feel that they can indeed recover the 10-point difference and complete the reversal, full of confidence.

Before going on the field, Kurt Rambis asked the Lakers players to stand in a circle, folded their hands in the middle, and shouted together,

"Lakers!"

"champion!"

Seeing the Lakers player Kurt Rambis walking out of the tunnel full of confidence, he wiped the sweat from his forehead.

Hope his chicken soup works.

Back on the field, the two sides change sides and fight again!
The Clippers took the lead and the ball came to Su Xing.

"Kobe, your defense is not good enough!"

Su Xing made three threats while teasing Kobe.

Not far away, Glenn Rice's double team is about to be in place.

Kobe was unimpressed.

He actually told the assistant coach in charge of defense just now that he could defend Su Xing by himself, but the assistant coach also said very tactfully that Glenn Rice should double-team him, since Stephen Jackson's offense is not bad anyway.

Kobe had nothing to say.

Stephen Jackson: Are you polite?
Then, Stephen Jackson shot Wu Shengbiao from outside the three-point line!
"boom!"

Did not enter.

Stephen Jackson has a three-point basket, but it's really inconsistent.

The coaching staff of the Lakers still has capable people.

The strategy of forcing the ball out of Su Xing's hands seemed to work.

O'Neal happily accepted the rebound, then twisted his big butt and ran tactics.

This is the rhythm he likes.

Fisher waited for O'Neal to get a good position in the low post and then gave the ball in. O'Neal's position was very good this time, so he didn't need to go hard.

Coach Rambis' chicken soup is still effective. For example, O'Neal's game is very tough and powerful.

Neither Su Xing nor Nowitzki had time to double-team.

"Shh!"

52 is better than 44!

"Hahaha!"

After landing, O'Neill laughed and returned to the defense with bully steps.

Sure enough, he is still that omnipotent big shark!
The Lakers fans at the scene also chanted O'Neal's name in unison.

Although still 8 points behind, the momentum of the Lakers' play made them very satisfied.

Su Xing received the ball again in the frontcourt, and the Lakers continued to double-team.

Su Xing didn't take any risks. He passed the ball to the open Stephen Jackson. The latter went down to the penalty area and missed O'Neal's throw.

Stephen Jackson is really capable of everything now, but he is not that good at anything.

Facing weaker opponents, Stephen Jackson may be able to perform supernaturally all-around, but facing a strong team like the Lakers, it is easy to play "all-around".

The Lakers' offense is still a positional battle. Su Xing's defense was in place this time, but O'Neal passed the ball and assisted Glenn Rice to hit a three-pointer.

Not far away, Stephen Jackson was wronged.

It's fine that Kobe doesn't have a basket, so what's the matter with helping Glenn Rice block him?

On the sidelines, Thibodeau frowned slightly.

Not because the Lakers scored 5 points in a row, but because of the changes in the Lakers' offensive style.

The reason why Su Xing dared to double-team the inside line was because Kobe's outside shooting percentage was very impressive, but it would be different if it was replaced by Glenn Rice.

That guy's three-pointer can really shoot dead.

On the other hand, Coach Rambis showed complacency.

In his opinion, this is the effect of the chicken soup he fed during the intermission!

As long as the Lakers can win this city derby, his position as the head coach in the Western Conference Finals is almost secure!
At that time, he will also be able to sit firmly as the head coach.

Speaking of which, he also became an assistant coach for the first time this season.

Not long after, the score on the court came to 58 to 56, and coach Thibodeau called a timeout sullenly.

The tactical adjustment of the Lakers is one thing, and the playoff experience of their players is indeed a little weaker, and it is really not so handy in the face of a stronger playoffs.

Thibodeau took Su Xing to exchange a few words, then picked up the tactical board and arranged some details with the Clippers generals.

After the timeout ended and returned to the game, the Clippers' lineup was adjusted. Stephen Jackson was replaced by Rodney Rogers.

A big reason why the Clippers were narrowed down was that after Glenn Rice opened up, Su Xing couldn't double-team O'Neal with all his strength, causing the Lakers to open both inside and outside.

Although Rodney Rogers is not as good as Stephen Jackson in offense and support, he has excellent physical fitness and better defense than Stephen Jackson. Coach Thibodeau wants to try him.

Of course, the Clippers' outside shooting and running the ball will be worse, but this is nothing to do, Thibodeau can only consider defense first.

Back from the timeout, Su Xing received the ball from outside the three-point line, and Glenn Rice became more active in double-teaming under the reminder of the coach on the sidelines.

Kobe also put his elbow directly on the defense.

Someone behind him makes Kobe feel very at ease now.

It's just that Su Xing is more ruthless than Kobe. After an elbow forced Kobe to reveal the space, Su Xingyun stepped to the side and directly pulled.

How could Kobe tolerate Su Xing being so presumptuous?

Immediately fly to the defense in front of him!
But soon Kobe yelled in his heart that it was not good, because although Su Xing did pull out, he deliberately slowed down!

"Crack!" "Beep!"

Kobe slapped Su Xing on the arm, and the referee's whistle sounded immediately, making gestures.

Kobe made a defensive foul and Su Xing had three free throw opportunities.

Kobe exploded immediately, looking anxiously to communicate with the referee.

Not long after, he put his head in his hands and retreated angrily.

Although tonight is the Lakers' home court, it is at least half of the Clippers' home court, and Su Xing now has some status in the league. In addition, Kobe's foul was too obvious, and the referee couldn't help it.

When Su Xing stood at the free throw line, there were mixed cheers and boos, and fans behind the basketball hoop tried to interfere with Su Xing's free throw in various ways, but...

"Shu!" "Shu!" "Shu!"

Su Xing directly made all three free throws, bringing the point difference back to 5 points!
On the sidelines, Thibodeau finally breathed a sigh of relief.

At the critical moment, it really had to be Su Xing.

The momentum of the Lakers was suppressed, and it would not be so easy to overtake them.

O'Neal attracted double-teams and then divided Glenn Rice, but Rodgers' defense was indeed better, and Rice missed a three-pointer.

Initially, it seems that the adjustment of the Clippers has had an effect.

But Rogers really can't help much on the offensive end. He didn't know how to cover Nowitzki or Billups. Steal.

The Warriors began to restrain the Lakers' offense, and their offensive efficiency also declined slightly, and the two teams continued to enter a stalemate.

After three quarters, the Clippers lead the Lakers by 78 points 76 to 2, and the outcome is still undecided.

"Guys, your performance in the third quarter was really good!
Next, all we have to do is beat them all in one go.

Now, they are at the end of their blows and we are on the mend, it's time to win the game!

The Lakers must win! "

During the intermission, coach Kurt Rambis continued to feed chicken soup.

He has done his best, and what he will do next depends on the players themselves.

I have to say that coach Rambis's chicken soup is indeed of a certain level, which makes the Lakers players scream.

It's time for the final battle.

The beginning of the fourth quarter is the rotation stage, both sides are starters with substitutes.

On the Lakers side, the energetic Kobe led the team, and on the Clippers side, Su Xing, who was called a "physical monster" by Stephen Jackson, continued to lead the team.

I have to say that Rambis's chicken soup does have something. Kobe used the pick-and-roll breakthrough to enter the penalty area and scored a super pull-up layup.

Also caused a foul.

After Kobe made a free throw, the crowd cheered.

Kobe's game is really cool.

Kobe made a solid free throw.

78 to 79, the Lakers officially completed the overtake.

On the sidelines, Rambis was so happy that he was about to take off.

He is indeed the chosen head coach of the Lakers!

The Lakers fans at the scene were also very happy.The moment they've been looking forward to is finally coming.

To be honest, they really didn't expect the Clippers to hold their Lakers ahead for so long!
But it doesn't matter, the next step is their script for the Lakers to widen the point difference.

There has always been only one king in Los Angeles, and that is the Zijin Lakers!

And they can obviously feel the morale of the team has risen!

"Defense—!" "Defense—!"

The Clippers attacked, and the Lakers fans shouted in unison to put pressure.

On the court, the Lakers players tried their best to fight, and the defensive pressure was very high.

As soon as Su Xing caught the ball, the double team from the Lakers came!
The Lakers seem to be sure that Su Xing will choose to make a move by himself at a critical moment to show off.

Su Xing's offensive space was blocked. He didn't rush, but passed the ball to Stephen Jackson while dribbling without looking behind his back.

Stephen Jackson jumped up after receiving the ball, and Wu Sheng shot a three-pointer!
At the basket, O'Neal used his huge body to block the explosive head Ben behind him, ready to protect the rebound.

"Shh!"

As a result, with a crisp sound, Stephen Jackson scored a three-pointer!

81 to 79, the Clippers regained the lead!

"Leave me free, baby, just keep freeing me, baby."

Stephen Jackson shouted shaking his head.

Obviously, being shorted all the time made this young genius who once beat Kobe and McGrady in the McDonald's All-Star Game very dissatisfied.

Who is not a genius anymore?

"Snapped!"

Su Xing walked over and patted Stephen Jackson's butt with his backhand.

"Finished venting? Defense well!"

"Hey, good captain!"

Stephen Jackson responded with a black face almost bursting out of laughter.

It's definitely not okay for others to slap his ass and talk to him like this, Su Xing...

After all, the boss of the team is here, and he just assisted him, Stephen Jackson is willing to give him this face.

"Attack—!" "Attack—!"

The game on the court entered a fierce stage, and the Lakers fans cheered harder.

Fisher's cold arrow three-pointer missed under the interference of Billups, Ben blocked O'Neal, and Nowitzki protected the defensive rebound.

Su Xing quickly attacked the frontcourt with the ball, but the Lakers still double-teamed him, and it was Glenn Rice who double-teamed him.

Stephen Jackson's white teeth were about to be crushed.

Damn, you really don't see me as a human being!
Fortunately, Su Xing was strong, and this time the ball was hit from the double-team again and passed to him who was running down.

O'Neal didn't retreat back to the defense, and JR Reid was concerned that Nowitzki's shot was slow to return to the defense.

"Oh!"

After Stephen Jackson received the ball, he dunked the ball with a small tomahawk and blasted the ball into the basket!

83 is better than 79!

The Clippers opened up the point difference again.

Stephen Jackson swayed on the rim before landing hard.

"Roar!"

Then he roared to the sidelines.

He is really happy now.

"Brother, the biography is too beautiful."

When returning to defense, Stephen Jackson laughed and said to Su Xing.

If you want to have fun, you still have to see if that guy Su Xing will give you a chance!
For the sake of more fun, Stephen Jackson didn't mind patting Su Xing's ass more.

After all, he and Su Xing are brothers, so what's wrong with flattering?
"Don't worry, as long as you have a chance, I will pass the ball to you."

Su Xing gave Stephen Jackson a reassurance.

Looking at the cheerful Stephen Jackson Su Xing was also very happy.

However, Su Xing felt that Stephen Jackson might not have such a good opportunity next.

He has already scored five points in a row. If Glenn Rice still double-teams him regardless, he will definitely be sprayed to death by fans and experts.

For the Lakers to attack, they still look for O'Neal at the critical moment.

It's just that O'Neal's offense missed under the interference of Big Ben.

O'Neal's state has not been restored to his best this season, and coupled with the fact that a heavy center like him consumes too much energy, the offensive efficiency will inevitably decline by this time.

On the other hand, Daben didn't practice too much under the leadership of Su Xing in the offseason last year, and he was in good condition, and his current defense is not something O'Neal can control at will.

Big Ben got O'Neal, and Nowitzki received another rebound.

On the Lakers side, O'Neal is good at rebounding, but JR Reid's rebounding ability is average, so the Lakers' rebounding during this period is not as strong as many fans think.

The Clippers counterattacked again. After Su Xing received the ball, the Lakers really didn't dare to double-team him.

After a fake shot tricked Kobe, Su Xing broke through and overwhelmed JR Reed's help defense and scored a layup.

85:79.

Coach Kurt Rambis called a timeout again.

He looked puzzled.

Obviously it was about to turn over, why was it beaten back by the Clippers again?
