I really just want to be a role player

Only leading by 6 points, Mike Brown is very satisfied with this result!

In the next rotation battle, the advantage is still on the Lakers side. It is very likely that the point difference can be expanded to double digits, and the disadvantage of back-to-back battles can also survive.

Wake Forest University's two-gun suppression continues. Paul and Su Bei are young and strong and don't need to rest.

Kobe and Gasol took the opportunity to recuperate.

With the addition of Artest, Jamison, and PJ Tucker, the rotation battle is still a very capable low-end version of the F4 lineup.

The Nets only showed their ability to make money in the last two years. After all, they are not as deep as the Lakers. The starting five are really hanging, but the rotation lineup is much behind.

Joe Johnson led the team alone, starting the five tigers, and the remaining four truce.

Throw in Stackhouse, Lake Evans, Andrey Blatche and CJ Watson.

"The cards of the rotation battle, the advantage lies with the Lakers!

The Nets have the right to attack the ball. Next, let's see how they respond?

CJ Watson holds the ball to the front court, and the others pull away. Is this going to single out Paul?
My goodness!

Sudden breakthrough with the ball, but it was a dribble with a sudden brake, retreated, retreated to the three-point line, immediately pulled the ball up, raised his hand and made a three-point jumper..."

CJ Watson is 1 meters. As an undrafted player, his only advantage is that he can score points on the court.

This time I didn't talk about the emergency stop, pull back, and then make a three-pointer. The idea was to use height and shooting to test Paul's 183 skyline.

It is said that Paul's defense is very strong, but that was when he was prepared, and now he was caught off guard. He lost 183 days, where he can withstand such a test, and he can only listen to the gunshots.

Swish-!
"pretty!!

Just after playing, CJ Watson scored an unreasonable three-pointer! !

There is no solution, this is a superstar style of play, it is really unbeatable..."

28 to 31! !
The point difference became 3 points! !

Looking back, Paul chose to break through and use his physical talent to crush CJ Watson. Joe Johnson emptied Artest and rushed over to pinch.

"Beautiful post-up pass, Paul sent the damn basketball to the left wing, Artest received the ball, without saying a word, he pulled the ball and shot..."

Joe Johnson can care about wiping CJ's ass, but he can't care about his own ass, so he can only desperately change his position, rush forward and come back to fight, and then, bet that Artest will only rub outside and not shoot inside .

Swish-!
Guessed wrong, Artest also needs it, and he also wants to show his ability to be strong in the contract year, and make three-point shots and hit steadily.

"bingo!
Very nice response three points!
CJ Watson is strong offensively and weak defensively, with strong offensive talent and can hit three-pointers.

Bao’s height is a flaw, but offensively, he can use his assist ability to assist his teammates and get back lost points..."

come on!

Hurt each other!
28 to 34! !
The point difference is still 6 points, and the advantage is still with the Lakers.

Outside the field, the home fans cheered, obviously also seeing that the wind direction of the game is on my side of the lake.

Offensive and defensive transition, the Nets attack.

CJ Watson got the ball up the court and was immediately overwhelmed by Paul's press so he couldn't shoot the [-]-pointer.

No problem, he can engage in a sneak attack, but if he tries to force Paul head-on, then there is no need for him.

"Split the ball to Joe Johnson on the left, three-threat with the ball and single-handedly beat Artest.

Artest responded well to the continuous probing steps. He didn't regard Joe Johnson's three-pointers as alive at all. When he broke through, Artest went to the hand-to-hand fight, mid-range shots and breakthroughs.

Hey, CJ Watson moved to the left without the ball, Joe Johnson turned around to cover CJ Watson, and handed the basketball to CJ Watson.

Paul's press was blocked by Joe Johnson, and Artest was slow to switch defenses.

My goodness!

It's too much to say, CJ Watson catches the ball, one step away from the three-point line, pulls the ball and shoots, raises his hand and tries a blind three-point jumper..."

Another damn giant planet!

Artest's defensive skills are not bad, and his defensive attitude is not bad, but his athletic ability has declined too much, and the flaws in speed are more obvious. It is too late to save, so we can only bet on CJ Watson. There is no bullet in the three-pointer pistol.

Swish-!
Guessed wrong, Watson's three-point pistol still had bullets in it, and he pulled out his three-pointer and still hit it steadily!
"Nice three points!!
Watson shot crazy, made two unreasonable three-pointers in a row, made precise hits, the Lakers had no way at all..."

31 to 34! !
Gangzhen, Watson averaged 7 points and 2 assists per game, but role players belong to role players. Once upon a time, on the NCAA stage, he was also the leader of the big kills.

Crank it up, it's really hard to do.

It just happened to be met by Paul.

Originally, in the first quarter of the game, he received two unreasonable three-pointers from Delong. He didn't expect that he hadn't taught Delong how to be a substitute, but he was killed by others.

It's off the charts!

Looking back, he chose to do it himself to return the lost points.

"Paul got angry, anyone would have to kill CJ Watson!
Who made CJ Watson provoke Paul to do what!
Sure enough, the ball went to the frontcourt, Paul dribbled the ball to the right, braked suddenly, stepped down and dribbled to the left, and then patted the ball in front of his body to the right.

Paul's change of direction from right to left was completed in an instant. CJ Watson straightened up, his head kept up with Paul's movements, but his body couldn't keep up.

Paul faced CJ Watson head-on after his body's center of gravity was out of balance. Is this a touch?
beep-!
The whistle sounded, and at the same time that CJ Watson was fouled, Paul's breakthrough layup was not over yet, and the final shot would be..."

Bang-dang-!
The basket is not used to Paul, the opportunity came out, Paul's shot, but failed to send the damn basketball into the basket, and missed the 2-point opportunity to play 1+3.

Fortunately, there are guaranteed free throws, and if you fail to score, you will get a chance to score points with two free throws.

Standing on the free throw line, Paul didn't show mercy, and made two swishes, and made the free throw steadily.

31 to 36! !
The point difference became 5 points.

The Lakers don't understand defense, and the Nets don't want to understand either!

Off the field, Avery Johnson has a headache!
The role player CJ Watson scored two unexpected three-pointers, but they couldn't make up the hole that fell behind in the first quarter. The Lakers' offensive ability is too strong, right?
No way, I can only hope that Joe Johnson can harden up.

The reason why the Nets fell behind to the Lakers in the first quarter was because he was blown away by Kobe. Now that Kobe is not on the court and he is not desperately scoring points, when will he wait?
On the field, Joe Johnson seemed to hear the coach's voice.

It's just an offense with the ball, but it can't break Artest's hand-to-hand combat.

"Still can't impress Artest!

Joe Johnson went in and was forced back by Artest's pressure.

Hey, Joe Johnson actually chose to split the ball. CJ Watson, who came from the middle, caught the ball and immediately dribbled the ball, forcing Paul to fight and retreat. The speed was too fast. An unreasonable shot..."

Paul's pressing can only force a loneliness!
CJ Watson didn't play well at all. When he got the ball, he either pulled it up, or rushed and then pulled it out. It was all unreasonable superstar play.

Paul Kong has a defensive skill of small moves, and there is no room for him to use it at all. He can only bet that CJ Watson will only dawdle outside: don't shoot inside.

Bang-dang-!
"pity!!

CJ Watson's chance definitely came out, but the basket was not used to him and rejected his goal!
This can be normal CJ ​​Watson, if this ball hits again, he will not play a substitute!
This is the routine operation of Crazy Hands!

Hey, the Nets' offense is not over yet, and the 2-meter Andre Blatche grabbed the offensive rebound.

In terms of height, the advantage is on the Nets side. The Lakers piled up people in the penalty area. Blatche had no room to shoot.

Catch the ball, pull it up and shoot it, raise your hand and it's a pull-up two-point fadeaway shot..."

In the face of Joe Johnson, who attacks off the ball and shoots on catch, Artest still patronizes Blatche, who grabs the offensive rebound. It is impossible, absolutely impossible, to block Joe Johnson's shot. No, just bet: You don't have bullets in your pistol.

Swish-!
"Yes!!

Finally, finally score! !
Joe Johnson joined the Nets under the name of "Eagle King", and he didn't score until the second quarter, which is very unscientific in itself.

Fortunately, although the score is late, it is still here!
That's what All-Star Joe Johnson does on the floor..."

You can play as an assistant, or you can score by yourself!

He didn't treat himself as a superstar at all, he was too low-key, he was so low-key in his behavior and deeds.

Of course, no matter how low-key he was, when the team needed him, Joe Johnson still stood up and made things high-profile.

The next game, Joe Johnson took over the Nets' offense.

In addition to this first make-up, soon, in the offensive round, he used an emergency stop to test Artest's defense, and made a steady shot, scoring 4 points in a row, and continued The Nets' offensive firepower.

And this is just the beginning!
In the subsequent offense, Joe Johnson saw Artest put his snake, but he is not Kobe!

Outside the three-point line, after taking a step, retracting his feet, raising his hand is a three-point jump shot...

It was too late for Artest to pounce. Fortunately, this was his choice, and he didn't regard Joe Johnson's three-pointer as alive.

As a result, he failed to follow Artest's wishes, and the three-pointer went into the basket steadily.

"Joe Johnson hit a [-], and CJ Watson rounded it out, and it rained [-]s.

The Nets offense is crazy! !
Except for CJ Watson's 3-for-2 and Blatche's 1-for-1 layup, Joe Johnson did not hide anymore, made 3-of-3 shots, scored 7 points in a row, started the second quarter, and blasted the Lakers to a 15-7 The attack wave reversed the point difference..."

Less than 5 minutes into the second quarter, the score became 40 to 38, the Lakers became the one behind, especially the Nets' offense started, Mike Brown could only call a timeout, rested for a while, so as to interrupt The Nets' offensive tempo.

Subei was subsequently replaced.

In the second quarter of the game, he was invisible all the way and played a lonely game.

But it's not his fault.

Offensively, CJ Watson rushed Paul, Paul had to return, and Su Bei couldn't even touch the ball.

Defensively, the Nets first made a shot from CJ Watson, and then Joe Johnson attacked. They all avoided the defensive area of ​​North Jiangsu. What else do we need from him?
