Chapter 244 Advancing to the Finals
Following the boos of all the fans in Salt Lake City, Liu Han made a steady free throw. The Lakers extended their lead to [-] points, and then they have another chance to continue attacking, because Liu Han made a quick break just now. There were no other Jazz defenders in front of him at the time.

"Carl's foul is really unwise, but in the face of such a situation, it is actually difficult to make a correct judgment. The Jazz are in big trouble now. If they can't close the gap in the fourth quarter If they shrink to less than ten points, it will be difficult for them to come back in the fourth quarter, and the overall age structure of the Lakers is much more reasonable than that of the Jazz, which means that the Lakers will have more energy in the fourth quarter." Myrph Albert, as always, is very professional, but his commentary is bound to arouse the disgust of Jazz fans, after all, no one wants to hear bad things about their home team.

The booing of the Jazz fans has continued. On the one hand, it is aimed at the referee's penalty, and on the other hand, it is hoped to put more pressure on the Lakers players.

Now there is less than 1 minute before the end of the third quarter. If the Lakers score this time, it will be difficult for the Jazz to narrow the point difference to less than ten before entering the fourth quarter.

The Lakers served the ball from the sideline, and Liu Han threw off Stockton to receive the ball. The Jazz team came up with two players to double-team the ball as soon as Liu Han caught the ball, but at the first moment when the double-team came up, Liu Han got the ball The pass was passed, and Finley, who was open, received the ball.

Finley didn't feel good today, but in the face of no one guarding him, he still made a decisive shot. The ball hit the front of the basket and then bounced and fell into the net. The good luck of the Lakers is still continuing.

After the Lakers expanded the score to [-] points, the Jazz immediately counterattacked without any pause from the bottom line. They wanted to compress the attack time as much as possible so that they could catch up with the score as much as possible before the end of the third quarter.

But haste makes waste. Originally, the Jazz's physical exertion was greater than that of the Lakers, and now they have to speed up their offense, so their offense was staggering.

Liu Han's close defense put a lot of pressure on Stockton, so the Jazz could only rely on Malone to develop their offense. However, as his physical strength declined, Malone's attention was not as focused as it was at the beginning. When playing against Brent Barry, there was a little room for holding the ball, and Barry, who is agile and explosive, found a chance to slap the ball in Malone's hand.

Ray Allen snatched the steal from Barry very smartly, and then threw the ball directly forward, because Liu Han had already run past the half court.

The Jazz's consecutive mistakes at the end of the third quarter made all their previous efforts in vain. After receiving the ball, Liu Han scored the ball with an easy layup in the face of an empty frontcourt. He is not the kind Arrogant players.

Although the Jazz fans on the sidelines were still booing deafeningly, it was not as good as it was at the beginning of the game, and the Jazz fans were also losing confidence.

Jerry Sloan watched everything that happened on the court silently from the sidelines. He no longer had the idea of ​​calling a timeout. For him, he had done everything he could, and now he could only leave everything to God.

The Lakers widened the gap to [-] points. Except for Stockton, the rest of the Jazz players showed blank faces. They didn't know how to play next. Even the self-proclaimed The resolute Ma Long lost his confidence.

Stockton called his teammates together and tried to re-encourage the confidence of his teammates, but the effect was not great at all.

The game in the third quarter ended after the Jazz's most offensive failure. The Lakers led the Jazz by 15 points and entered the fourth quarter.

Before the start of the fourth quarter, Jerry Sloan didn't say anything to the players. He was even a little bit at a loss for himself now. He was defeated by the Lakers for two consecutive seasons. Although this is the third game, he is behind [-]-[-] , The hope of the Jazz's comeback can be said to be very small. The pressure the Lakers put on the Jazz is too great, so much that Jerry Sloan can't find any hope of winning.

The fourth quarter of the game started amidst the noise of the Jazz fans. There were encouragement and expectations for the home team, as well as taunts and blows for the visiting team. But now these voices are not as regular as they were at the beginning, but very noisy. Mixed together, it makes people feel extremely bored.

The Jazz launched a counterattack led by Stockton at the beginning of the fourth quarter. If anyone in this Jazz team has confidence, it is undoubtedly Stockton. The Washington-born The white veteran is like a knight in the medieval world. He is looking forward to glory, but he can't find the direction of glory.

The Jazz should have replaced Stockton and Malone at the beginning of the fourth quarter, but Stockton insisted on playing, so Jerry Sloan placed Stockton on the court.When Malone saw that his old friend didn't want to end, he knew that Stockton hadn't given up completely. For the sake of his old friend's belief, Malone also insisted on playing.

The Lakers replaced the substitute players at the beginning of the fourth quarter, so that the Jazz had a lot of advantages at the beginning of the fourth quarter. Their offense was sharper, and their defense was also very aggressive, which made the Jazz The team narrowed the gap to 3 points in the first 9 minutes of the fourth quarter.

However, the Lakers replaced Liu Han and O'Neal in the 8th minute of the fourth quarter. As soon as Liu Han came on the court, he relied on Nash's pass to hit a three-pointer, which re-extended the gap to more than ten points, and O'Neal also The inside line once again beat Ostertag, not only scored two points, but also made the opponent bear the fifth foul.

The hope of the Jazz coming back is getting smaller and smaller, but none of the fans in the audience left, and all of them are still supporting the home team at the expense of physical strength and voice.

Just when the Jazz were preparing to fight for their last chance, Liu Han became a ruthless killer again.

Stockton was very difficult to defend by Liu Han in this game, but under such a heavy defense, Stockton was extremely cautious, although he also made some mistakes in the previous game.However, just as the game was about to enter the final half of the game, Stockton was intercepted by Liu Han again.

This ball cannot be said to be Stockton's mistake. In fact, Liu Han predicted the passing line of the Jazz. He moved ahead of time and took the ball that Stockton had already received, and then took the ball. Launch a counterattack.

Still tall and straight, still running at an emergency stop, Liu Han made another shot from outside the three-point line, breaking the last hope of a comeback for the Jazz, and the Lakers once again extended their lead to [-]. points or more.

Throughout the game, the two teams played ups and downs. The Jazz once found a way to deal with the Lakers, but they still failed to win in the end. Compared with the situation on the field, the Jazz fans have been taking the initiative. Cheering up and taunting the visiting team, but these are useless.

In the end, in the third game of the Western Conference Finals, which was very much watched, the Lakers won the game 107-94. In this way, the Lakers led with a total score of [-]-[-]. They have already put one foot into the In the finals, on the other hand, the Jazz, they are now on the edge of the cliff.
