After the confession failed, I went to the NBA to play and lose weight

Chapter 349 The Last Minute

"The camera was on Li Chengming, and he was resting off the court at the beginning of the fourth quarter. He has scored 43 points so far, which has broken his own personal scoring record and is also the highest score by a domestic player in the NBA. If I play, I hope to break through to 50+, which is 50+ in the finals!"

The emotions of the commentary are unavoidable at this time. After all, records and high scores are the two things that stimulate the most adrenaline in a basketball game.

And often, it's the same thing.

"Now the Magic still have the upper hand. Howard and Turkoglu played well without Li Chengming on the court."

Director Zhang said with a smile: "Today's surprise is Nelson. He has sent 8 assists without a single turnover. No matter whether he faces Fisher or Farmar, he can't stop his breakthrough. He can rely on teammates to help defend, and his distribution is also in place..."

Jordan Farmar was a rookie in 06 and this is his second season.

He averaged 9.1 points per game in the regular season and is an important scoring guarantee for the Lakers on the bench. Some Lakers fans even think that he should start instead of Lao Yu.

However, in the playoffs, both his scoring and shooting percentage dropped sharply. This three-pointer was okay, but he was blown up again on the defensive end.

The biggest advantage of the Lakers over the Magic should be on the back line, and most of this advantage is played by Kobe.

People like Fisher, Farmar, Vujacic, etc. can actually only make a little contribution in shooting. If they can't make a shot, then their defense will hinder them on the court.

In the end, the Lakers had to use the hacking tactic again. This tactic was tried and tested, and it was also an important reason why Howard's performance was plummeted in the hearts of the fans.

In the regular season, he was a center forward and could even compete for the MVP. However, in the playoffs, he made free throws and was caught by one team after another. He often achieved certain results.

Even if Howard's free throws today were considered super-level performance, he made four of six free throws but couldn't hold back the Lakers' three consecutive three-pointers and completed the overtake in terms of score.

Van Gundy had to call a timeout at this time, and the home fans temporarily died down.

The game situation is really changing, and a careless move will have a chain reaction.

Sun Zhengping commented: "There was a problem with the Magic's two retreats. The Lakers' choice is actually a bit risky. After all, they want three points instead of two points. But this is also their strategy for this game, and it can be regarded as their bet. correct."

Xu Jicheng said: "It was due to Howard's free throw again, but his performance this time is not too bad. No one expected the Lakers to be so accurate."

Now that Li Chengming is not present, everyone is more concerned about the outcome of the game.

Of course, I will also guess whether Li Chengming will play.

In fact, at this time, many people felt that if Howard could be placed off the court for a little bit for 2 minutes, it might be good for Li Chengming to play well.

Although the defense must have been weakened, the offense was guaranteed, and by this time, the Lakers' offense was also blocked.

The Lakers' first offensive option is still in the low post and under the basket. After all, three-pointers are not safe. The more critical the moment, the more afraid to try it easily.

Even with Kobe's self-confidence, at this time, he would rather take a step forward and shoot two points, and would not easily try a three-pointer.

Unless it is a huge open opportunity, it feels like a crime not to vote.

Except for the fast break, the opportunity to fall into the position is actually relatively rare. The Magic's pursuit and switch defenses are in place in time, which can give a certain degree of interference, which makes them dare not take it lightly.

And the chances at the basket are not so good. In this case, it really has to fall on the killer move of the middle distance, because this is often a position that has to be neglected in defense.

But Kobe and Gasol missed the mid-range shots. They rushed too many insides today, and fought hand-to-hand with Howard, Li Chengming, Lewis, and Gortat.

The Magic took advantage of this opportunity to overtake the score again, and then the scores of the two teams increased alternately, and there was almost no stable time to lead for two rounds.

Often when you score a goal, you score a goal together, and when you strike iron, you strike iron together.

Isn't this a kind of "fluency"?

Van Gundy didn't find a chance to replace Li Chengming for a while, so he had to call a timeout with more than five minutes left.

此时场上比分是95:94，靠着科比借掩护突破后达成的2+1，湖人队暂时反超了1分。

Kobe has also scored 27 points in this game, but he made 20 of 8 shots and 4 of 1 three-pointers, which is quite satisfactory.

Gasol and Odom scored 15 points each. In the next three games, the Lakers' inside partner was not inferior to the Magic's Howard + Lewis in terms of offense, and their defense was evenly matched.

But because the Magic still has Li Chengming, they played evenly, so it was considered a failure.

This is still in the case of frequent use of Howard's free throws to contain the rhythm and mentality of Warcraft. Sometimes this will actually be counterproductive, because the Lakers themselves also need the rhythm of the game. If the game is intermittent, it is not all good for them.

"Li Chengming is going back to the court, and there are still more than five minutes of game time. It is still very interesting for him to score 50 points. Of course, it depends on the defensive situation of the Lakers, but I think if they want to If they want to win the game, they still need to change their defensive strategy as much as possible at this time. After all, if Li Chengming can keep scoring goals, they will be under a lot of pressure at this time..."

"But today the state of the Magic team is actually not bad. The two sides played very close today. That is to say, Li Chengming's personal state is very good, and it seems that everyone else is relatively average."

"Haha, I think at a time like this, it's better to continue to persevere. Instead of changing the defense, it's better to believe in your offense. The Lakers are not bad in this game, and they can still compete with the Magic a little bit. "

"Beep!"

The timeout ended and the game restarted. Li Chengming naturally returned to the court, and both sides also changed into their own winning lineups.

It was the Magic's offense, and Kobe began to lead the defense. The Black Mamba's eyes became bloodthirsty and dangerous, but eyes alone could not steal the Magic's ball.

Li Chengming also helped to make a cover to take him away first, but Turkoglu immediately handed the ball to Li Chengming when he fell into the position. At this time, Li Chengming happened to face Kobe.

King to King!
There are many opportunities for the two to match up in this series. Generally speaking, both of them have disadvantages and also have advantages. After all, strictly speaking, it is an inside line and an outside line. They happen to be misaligned with each other, and they can also form the effect of misalignment. .

To put it bluntly, at this time, it must be the offensive side that takes the initiative.

If Kobe wanted to defend Li Chengming in the low post, he alone would definitely not be able to do it. In this case, the Lakers also had to attack, but only Gasol could come to help on this side.

As a result, after Howard made a screen for Turkoglu, the Turk ran to one side of the three-point line, instantly attracting the attention of the two, but Li Chengming took the opportunity to give the ball to Howard.

The Lakers penalty area was almost empty, and this time they didn't even have a chance to foul the opponent. Howard easily scored two points with a split dunk.
