Chapter 219
At the end of the first quarter of Game [-] of the second round of the playoffs between the Lakers and the Supersonics, Liu Han had to be replaced due to two fouls.The referee's rather unreasonable judgment made the Lakers players a little angry, but after the head coach George Krent calmed down, his persuasion during the timeout also made the players gradually calm down.

After the timeout ended, Liu Han took a rest and was replaced by Michael Finley, who won the best sixth man of the season.

With 2 minutes left in the first quarter, the Sonics led the Lakers by 24 points 20-[-]. The Lakers were a little off-point today because of the opponent's fierce defense. No one can make a shot from your hand or arm.

In the remaining 2 minutes of the first quarter, the Lakers withstood the attack of the Sonics, although they still allowed the opponent to score, because as long as the Sonics players made a strong layup on the inside, the referee's whistle would sound. , But the Lakers players also hit back their opponents with impeccable three-pointers.

At the end of the first quarter, the Sonics ended with a 28-26 lead of two points.

Liu Han was on the bench listening to the veteran player beside him, Dell Curry, nagging about something wrong with the referee. Surprisingly quite talkative.

"Liu, I think you should stop attacking the inside line in the next game. This 'blind man' might call you an offensive foul again today, and shoot more from the outside line. Those bastards can't defend you from the outside line. , and I think you should stop handling the ball, let Steve pass the ball to you, and you play off the ball. If the 'blind man' still calls you a foul, then the league will probably not survive. Oh, By the way, I will leave a few basketballs signed by you for my son Curry. He admires you very much. To be honest, I am a little envious of you. The little guy used to admire me, but since watching your game Afterwards, I changed people, and now I have no status. You have to be responsible for this. I think the Chinese food in 'Zhou's Restaurant' is very good. How many times do you think we go there? Hehe." Liu Han was told by Dell Curry He was a little confused, the last sentence was still condemning the referee, but the next sentence had already reached the most luxurious Chinese restaurant in Los Angeles.

"Basketball is fine, but I don't go to Chinese food. I'm not used to the food there. It's cooked according to your American taste. If you want to eat, you can come to my house. I know some very good Chinese food cooks. You can Do it at my house, what they make is the authentic Chinese flavor.” Liu Han did not refuse Dell’s proposal, since Dell Curry came to Los Angeles, he often brought his son to the arena, the Lakers player I like the very cute little Curry.

Liu Han's pent-up anger during the game gradually dissipated under Dell Curry's nagging. This is probably the adjustment ability of the old players. They have experienced many such scenes, so they will not be too angry.

After the start of the second quarter, Liu Han appeared again. The head coach George Krent also realized that if Liu Han continued to control the ball, he would completely fall into the opponent's defensive trap. Instead of doing this, it is better to simply let Liu Han Acting as a mobile fort, at least his gun has a good aim.

Nash appeared again in the second quarter after being replaced about 8 minutes into the first quarter.

In the second quarter, the Sonics kicked off the ball first. Payton faced Nash after dribbling the ball for half court.Nash defended desperately, but because of his physical condition, he could only step back step by step for Payton's shameless sitting on his back.

Michael Finley saw Nash's struggle. He gave up his defender and ran directly to pinch Payton. This was arranged by the Lakers during the break in the first quarter. Most of the Sonics' offense came from Payton. Initiated, as long as Payton is cut off from the others, at least half of the Sonic's offense will be abolished.

But Payton was very astute. He passed the ball directly from behind to Schramf, who caught the ball and hit a large two-pointer directly.

When the Sonics were still a little complacent, Horry had already delivered the ball at the basket. Liu Han had already thrown off the defender in the frontcourt. Nash, who was in possession of the ball, passed the ball directly to Liu Han from a long distance. After Liu Han received the ball, his side Only Jose Hawkins, who was active in defense, faced Hawkins' height of 1.9 meters, Liu Han didn't care at all, and directly pulled out a three-pointer.

Jose Hawkins sensed Liu Han's intentions, and he rushed towards Liu Han, but Liu Han's shot was too fast, when he rushed over, he only touched Liu Han's body, and the ball had already flown to the basket.

Generally speaking, a dangerous defensive action like Jose Hawkins is likely to be fouled, but today the referee Javi said nothing.Fortunately, Liu Han's shot was stable enough, the ball went straight into the net, and the score gap was narrowed to three points.

The Lakers do not have O'Neal on the court now, which may make them a little difficult to defend, but such a lineup is very suitable for bombardment.

The Sonics' offense today was quite smooth. With the help of the referee, they can attack the Lakers' basket wantonly, and then they can score the ball when they have the opportunity.However, the Lakers didn't pay much attention to defense after entering the second quarter, and they focused all their attention on offense.

Liu Han will no longer be responsible for organizing the offense in the next game. He will run around the field with Payton who is defending himself, and he does not run at high speed all the time, but often starts and stops in a hurry, and sometimes relies on The cover running of his teammates made the 30-year-old Payton extremely uncomfortable in defense. After all, his knees were not as tough as the young Liu Han, so the sudden stops and starts made Payton feel out of breath.Originally, Payton had already played the entire quarter, and he should have rested, but now Liu Han is on the court. George Karl didn't have the slightest confidence in other people's defense of Liu Han, so he could only let Payton persist, but now it seems , Payton's defense is also of no avail. Liu Han made 5 shots from outside the three-point line in the first half of the second quarter and none of them missed.Fortunately, the Sonics' offense was fairly strong and did not allow the Lakers to overtake the score.

After the second half of the second quarter, Payton finally couldn't hold on anymore. He kept stopping to hold his knees with his hands to breathe. Liu Han's running position made Payton feel a little sore in his knees.

George Karl had no choice but to replace the most trusted Payton and replace him with Dale Ellis.

Without the harassment of Payton around Liu Han, he ran even more vigorously. The consecutive three-pointers made the Supersonics have to pinch Liu Han, so that the other players of the Lakers also had an opportunity. The main force rested, and the Lakers played an offensive climax in the second half of the second quarter, overtaking the score in one fell swoop. By the end of the second quarter, the Lakers had extended their lead to 8 points.

Liu Han played the entire second quarter. He took 9 shots from beyond the three-point line and hit 7 goals. There were also three free throws. These were the free throws awarded to Liu Han by the referee Jia Wei because the Supersonic The team's players directly pushed Liu Han down when defending Liu Han for a three-pointer. If such a ball is not awarded, the league will become a laughing stock after the game.In this way, Liu Han scored 24 points in a single quarter, and his performance like a god descending from the earth once silenced the Sonics.
