NBA Old Age Star System

Brunson advanced to the frontcourt with the ball and passed the ball directly to Su Tian.

Su Tian got the ball and faced Connaughton's defense, and directly called on Nongmei to step forward to cooperate with the pick-and-roll.

With the help of thick eyebrows' pick-and-roll, Su Tian easily completed the breakthrough and went directly to the basket with the ball. Lopez's steps were already very slow, so he did not leave the penalty area at all and kept squatting under the basket.

Su Tian stopped before reaching the basket and took a jump shot.

Swah——

The CIC made a steady hit.

2-2
The ball changed again. DiVincenzo received the ball and advanced to the frontcourt, passing the ball directly to Antetokounmpo again.

Antetokounmpo received the ball and faced Kuzma's defense. After the triple threat test, he took a big step and started to break through.

Kuzma's own defense is actually not bad, but against monsters like Antetokounmpo, it is really not enough.

Antetokounmpo pushed through Kuzma's defense and pointed directly at the basket with the ball. Kuzma could only continue to provide some interference beside Antetokounmpo.

The two were fighting against each other while walking to the basket. Just when Antetokounmpo was about to successfully attack the frame, thick eyebrows finally appeared on the defensive line.

Snapped--

There was a crisp sound and a thick eyebrow slap directly blocked Antetokounmpo's layup. Kuzma on the side had quick eyes and quick hands and quickly grabbed the basketball and passed it directly to George outside the three-point line.

After receiving the ball, George wanted to turn around and start a fast break, but was double-teamed by the Bucks, so George passed the ball again to Su Tian, ​​who had already started running in front.

When Su Tian received the ball, there was no one in front of him. He quickly took the ball to the basket and dunked with both hands.

4-2
The strength of both teams is not bad, and their spirits are high in their own way. This game is destined to be a high-quality offensive and defensive battle.

The next few rounds did verify this conjecture, and the two teams have maintained a high-quality state.

At the end of the first quarter, the Lakers only led the Bucks by 29 point, 28-1.

"I have to say that in today's league, there are probably not many players that can bring such difficulties to the Lakers. One is the Bucks, and the other is the Clippers." Barkley said.

Kenny Smith rubbed his chin and said, "Maybe the Heat are one?"

"No, no, no, the Heat can only be considered half, maybe not even half most of the time." Barkley said.

Kenny Smith also nodded after hearing this. Most of the time, the Heat are indeed only at the level of an ordinary playoff team, not enough to bring any hindrance to the Lakers.

The intermission is over and the second quarter begins.

Although the Lakers and Bucks had a tight score, both teams carried out normal rotations, and the bench lineups of the two teams began to come on.

Su Tian took a break as usual, and the team was led by George, Brunson and others.

For the Bucks, Antetokounmpo also took a break, and Middleton came on to lead the team.

The Lakers' bench is one of the best in the league, and the Bucks' bench is not bad either.

The first possession of the second quarter was given to the Lakers, and Brunson came to the frontcourt with the ball.

After arriving in the frontcourt, Brunson directly reached out and called his teammates to step forward to cooperate with the pick-and-roll.

With the help of the pick-and-roll, Brunson directly held the ball and launched a breakthrough to the basket. The Bucks' inside line quickly double-teamed defense, and Brunson passed a pass to Nunn on the outside.

Nunn took the ball and shot a three-pointer directly.

Swah——

Hit a three-pointer steadily.

Now Nunn, even without Su Tian's passing bonus, can still maintain a good shooting percentage.

The ball is transferred and the Bucks attack.

After passing the ball for a while, the Bucks gave the ball to Middleton. After getting the ball, Middleton used his teammates' pick-and-roll to bypass George's defense, came to the free throw line, and made a jump shot.

Swah——

With the help of his teammates, Middleton was able to display his All-Star strength and did not panic at all when facing George.

The ball was given to the Lakers again, Brunson came to the frontcourt with the ball, and this time passed the ball directly to George.

George got the ball and faced Middleton's defense, and directly signaled his teammates to pull away. After they were all pulled away, George directly held the ball and started singles mode.

George first made a sharp two-way change to shake Middleton's defensive position, then broke through the defense with an explosion, quickly came to the basket and then made a reverse layup.

George's movements have long returned to their previous elegant state, and some neutral fans or Lakers fans at the scene also burst into exclamations.

Middleton is barely an All-Star at this time, and George is an undisputed All-Star.

In the next few rounds, Su Tian could feel the intensity of the game even while sitting off the court.

"I really didn't expect that the bench lineups of the two teams could actually play such a high-quality game." Barkley said.

"The two teams are not only strong in the starting lineup, but it seems that the strength of the substitute lineup should not be underestimated." Kenny Smith agreed.

At this time, halfway through the second quarter, Walton replaced Su Tian and Nongmei's lineup as usual, and George, Brunson and others took a rest.

The Bucks also took notice and replaced Antetokounmpo.

Su Tian took over the leadership of the team as soon as he came up and advanced with the ball.

After much thought, Antetokounmpo decided to defend the thick eyebrows. It's not that Antetokounmpo thinks thick eyebrows are easy to bully, but that Antetokounmpo doesn't have full confidence when facing Su Tian.

Even if the letter is the dpoy from last season.

Su Tian saw Antetokounmpo and Fangmei with the ball, so he started to take more shots.

The score difference between the two teams began to creep slowly, and there was a gradual trend of wanting to widen the gap.

But half a quarter passed quickly, and the score difference was not able to widen much in the end.

At the end of the second quarter, the Lakers led the Bucks by 5 points.

"At halftime, the Lakers only opened up a 5-point difference, and this was the Lakers with the entire main lineup. To be honest, Charles, I really believe that the Bucks have made a difference this season." Kenny Smith said firmly.

But Buckley shook his head.

"Kenny, you spoke too early. This is the Lakers. Su Ke hasn't shown up yet. We'll see if the Bucks can survive in the fourth quarter."

Barkley's remarks indeed attracted a large number of viewers to agree. After all, it was only halftime, and the Lakers' strength in the fourth quarter was well known throughout the league.

Even at the end of the third quarter, as long as the Lakers maintain a double-digit lead, the Bucks will have no chance of winning.

At the same time, the locker rooms of both teams were intensely discussing tactical arrangements.

"There is no doubt that the Bucks' defensive focus is Giannis alone. As long as they can defend Giannis well, then the rest of the matter will be easy to handle." Walton continued to emphasize while holding the tactical board.

The person responsible for defending the letter on the Lakers' side naturally fell on thick eyebrows.

Su Tian was arranged by Wharton to double-team the letters at any time to help prevent interference.

Soon the intermission ended and the third quarter began.

The first possession of the third quarter was given to the Lakers. Brunson came to the frontcourt with the ball and passed the ball directly to Su Tian.

As soon as Su Tian got the ball, the entire Bucks team became nervous.Connaughton, who faced Su Tian directly, was even more excited and nervous.

Su Tian seemed very comfortable. After continuous dribbling, a sudden burst attracted Connaughton's defensive focus to change.

But then Su Tian stepped back directly to the three-point line and shot a three-pointer.

Swah——

Hit a three-pointer steadily.

"Su is so talented. The step-back three-pointer is James Harden's special skill. Only Su's step-back three-pointer in the league can match it." Barkley praised.

"That's true. Although other stars also use this trick, they are obviously not as threatening as the two of them." Kenny Smith agreed.

While the two were talking, the ball had been transferred, and Antetokounmpo successfully received a pass from his teammate in the frontcourt.

Because of Wharton's adjustments, the person responsible for defending letters at this time is the thick eyebrow.

When Antetokounmpo saw his defender, he was very excited. He first dribbled the ball to widen the distance between him and his thick eyebrows, and then broke through from the right with an explosion.

The thick eyebrow quickly followed the figure of the letter, but the impact of the letter was really strong, and it went all the way to the basket against the thick eyebrow's defense.

After the two came to the basket, they still had a strong physical confrontation, and Antetokounmpo chose to take action in the fierce confrontation without looking back.

boom--

Basketball comes naturally, and his thick eyebrows stuck in position to successfully grab the rebound.

In the past, as long as the thick eyebrow collected the rebound, he could turn around and pass the long ball directly to Su Tian who was on the fast break, and then Su Tian scored easily.

But this time it was different. Letter's height and wingspan were no worse than Nongmei's. Nongmei's strategy of passing the ball quickly failed.

So George had no choice but to immediately step forward to respond, took the ball from thick eyebrows, and the game had to fall into position.

George came to the frontcourt with the ball and passed the ball directly to Su Tian.

In fact, according to the strength of the Lakers, even if they fall into a positional battle, the Lakers still have the advantage, but it is not as easy as a fast break.

Su Tian got the ball and faced Connaughton again.

It was still the same style of play as in the previous round, with Su Tian continuously dribbling the ball under his hips, an explosion followed by a step back.

This time, Connaughton had a long memory and waited until Su Tianhou retreated before immediately pounced on her.

But Su Tian was more experienced. When he saw Connaughton pounce, he immediately broke out again and rushed to the basket with the ball.

Connaughton was stunned by Su Tian's shaking, and he could no longer tell Su Tian's true intention.

So Su Tian easily broke through the defense line, came to the position one step ahead of the free throw line, stopped and shot a jumper.

Swah——

The basketball is firmly in the net.

Since the beginning of the third quarter, Su Tian has hit a three-pointer and a mid-range shot, but the Bucks have not hit yet, so the point difference is now 10 points, double digits.

Antetokounmpo is a little anxious on the Bucks side. After all, Antetokounmpo also knows that if the Lakers can maintain a double-digit lead before the end of the third quarter, then this game will be on the line.

So Antetokounmpo quickly held the ball and came to the frontcourt. Taking advantage of the Lakers' unsteady footing, he held the ball directly towards the basket.

The thick eyebrow's reaction was just a beat slower, but he could no longer catch up.

Antetokounmpo broke through all the way to the basket, pushed away McGee who was trying to help defend under the basket, and scored a layup.

The point difference returned to 8 points.

After Antetokounmpo hit the ball, he looked up at the scorer. The score difference was still not safe.

But in the next few rounds, the two teams maintained a high level of performance. It was very difficult for either team to catch the opponent's mistakes.

Not only did Alphabet's attempt to narrow the score difference fail, Su Tian's attempt to widen the score difference also failed.

Halfway through the third quarter, Su Tian came off the court to rest as usual. Also off the court with Su Tian was Thick Eyebrow.

But the Bucks did not replace Antetokounmpo, and without the obstruction of thick eyebrows and Su Tian, ​​Antetokounmpo scored more easily.

Within a few rounds, the score difference between the two teams was only 2 points, and Walton had to call a timeout.

George himself is not in bad shape, and there is no problem in leading the Lakers' rotation time.

But after all, it is already the second half, and a lot of physical exertion has been exerted. Coupled with age and injuries, the condition will inevitably decline.

On the other hand, Giannis Antetokounmpo is young, strong and full of momentum. At this time, chasing the score to 2 points is even more exciting.

Wharton thought about it for a while, but still took on the thick eyebrows and once again deployed his defense against the letters.

With thick eyebrows on defense, and George helping to defend from the side, the Lakers' defensive pressure dropped instantly, and the point difference returned to about 6 points.

This point difference was maintained until the end of Antetokounmpo due to the efforts of the thick eyebrows.

Antetokounmpo will definitely play with Su Tian in the fourth quarter, so he must take some time to rest in the third quarter, and it is impossible to really play the whole third quarter.

However, even if Nongmei goes off the field with him at this time, it is impossible to play with Su Tian in the fourth quarter.

At the end of the third quarter, the Lakers still maintained a 6-point lead. Although it was not much, a lead was a lead.

"The score difference is 6 points. I think this score difference, whether it is the Bucks or the Lakers, should be full of confidence." Kenny Smith said.

Barkley also nodded and said: "It is true. The point difference is not big. Both the Bucks and the Lakers retain the chance to win."

During the break, Wharton came to Su Tian's side.

"Su, Anthony won't be playing with you at the beginning of the fourth quarter. He still needs some time to rest and recover, so you must be vigilant at this time. The team is relying on you."

After Wharton finished speaking, he patted Su Tian on the shoulder.

"Okay coach, don't worry."

Soon the intersection ended and the fourth quarter began.

The lineup given by Walton is Dort, Nunn, Su Tian, ​​Kuzma, and Boucher.

As for the Bucks, except for Antetokounmpo and Lopez, they are also substitute players.

The first possession of the fourth quarter was given to the Bucks. Antetokounmpo took the ball to the frontcourt and faced Kuzma's defense.

Antetokounmpo first signaled his teammates to pull away, and then asked Lopez to cooperate in the pick-and-roll.

With the help of pick-and-roll cooperation, Antetokounmpo directly holds the ball and goes to the basket.

Kuzma hurriedly turned around to catch up, but with Kuzma's obviously shorter strides, it would be impossible to catch up with Antetokounmpo.

Just when the fans at the scene thought they were going to appreciate Alphabet's dunk, Su Tian suddenly appeared from one side, and a hand suddenly appeared in front of the basketball.

Snapped--

Su Tian quickly completed the steal! (End of chapter)
