Chapter 378 Never Give Up (Part [-])
Don't give up hope until the last moment. ?Once you give up, the game is over. ——Anxi Guangyi

For some reason, before the start of the second half, Ruan Erniu suddenly had a classic SD quote in his mind.

From his current perspective, the animation "Slam Dunk" has too many mistakes and omissions. For example, Xiangbei should have used the speed advantage to drag Xiangyang Wugao to death, but Xiangyang led Xiangbei by a large score. Circumstances that do not conform to the basic principles of basketball occur.

But some spiritual things are still commendable.Humans are not machines, and it is impossible to use all tactics to the extreme. Sometimes, it is just a gamble in the game.

Because I believe deeply, I firmly believe.

Before the opening game, Ruan Erniu gathered his teammates together and hugged into a circle. He shouted: "Persist our defense, we will definitely win Game 4, even the Celtics were killed by us, the Lakers so what?"

On the offensive end of the Eagles, Ruan Erniu held the ball in the high post, and he just made a straight shot against Gasol, staring directly at the basket with firm eyes, and nothing else.

hit!

Fisher dribbled the ball across half court, Kobe rushed into the penalty area after receiving the ball, and barely made a shot against the three double-teams, but missed!
Er Niu grabbed the rebound, quickly advanced into the half court, hit the ground from beyond the three-point line, and Lunar Eclipse, who rushed in quickly, dunked immediately after receiving the pass, bombing the basket and hitting the basket!

The Eagles narrowed the score to single digits for the first time since the first quarter.

On the offensive end of the Lakers, Kobe made another forced breakthrough after receiving the ball, completed a difficult fallback under double-teaming, and scored!
However, Phil Jackson frowned. He couldn't replace Kobe at this time, because this is the way Kobe played.

But it's not smart to do so. He can score in a more secure way and choose a more reasonable shot.

But Kobe didn't consider these, he just used such unreasonable but wonderful offensive methods to attack the basket time and time again.

On the offensive end of the Eagles, Er Niu held the ball in a low post, squeezed Gasol away with his back, swayed Odom's supplementary defense in the air, and sent the ball into the basket with a small throw.

It was Kobe again, he played low-post singles with the ball, and was immediately double-teamed by Mike Bibby when his teammates did not fully pull away.

In a hurry, Kobe directly chose to turn over and shoot a jumper with a picturesque posture, but at this moment, he turned all four into three irons.

"Bang!" Marvin Williams took the backcourt rebound and passed it to Ruan Erniu. Erniu directly dribbled the ball across the half court. An accelerated breakthrough passed Radmanovic who was trying to stop him. The Bosnian One step passed.

Ruan Erniu used a beautiful European step and put the ball into the basket with ease.

The score of the two teams was once again within 10 points.

Phil Jackson was overtaken without equaling the score and called another timeout.

In addition to the defense that must be reminded, he directly said to Kobe: "Trust your teammates, you can't solve all problems alone, understand?"

After the timeout ended, the Lakers really adjusted their attack, and the ball was in Gasol's hands, but the Lakers generals, who were used to Kobe holding the ball, couldn't find the touch.

After repeated strikes, the Eagles further narrowed the score gap.

Kobe quit. At this time, he wants to save the earth alone.

At this moment, he is Bump Man, and he is Pegasus.

However, most of Pegasus' meteor punches are false moves, and the real real moves are only one or two times, which is not much different from Kobe's shooting.

Hitting the iron again and again, the Eagles counterattacked again and again.

As the Eagles changed to a small-ball lineup and accelerated further, the Eagles quickly overtook the score and there was a tendency to open the score.

Phil Jackson had to replace Kobe Bryant, Gasol and others who felt bad, and let the Lakers' substitutes deal with them.

It's a pity that the Lakers' substitutes can't stop the Eagles attacking group who feel hot.

Ruan Erniu didn't mean to be soft-hearted when facing the Lakers' substitute.

Jordan Farmar missed a shot, and after Ruan Erniu grabbed the rebound from the backcourt, he immediately dribbled the ball into the Lakers' half court.

In the restricted area of ​​the Lakers, Odom and Turiaf guarded it.

Ruan Erniu accelerated, took off in one step inside the free throw line, and flew to the highest point with a flat basket.

"Bang!" There was a fierce contact between the three in the air. In the end, Ruan Erniu, who was still in an impact state, knocked the two defenders away with terrifying acceleration, and pushed the ball into the basket with one hand.

"Beep!" Jia Wei blew the whistle and sent a wonderful 2+1.

Ruan Erniu hit the left chest first with his right hand, then the right chest with his left hand, and then let out a roar, suppressing the audience.

Facing the son of Los Angeles, the boos of the Lakers fans were really not neat enough, and the sparse boos and tickles were not much different.

Er Niu hit a free throw and scored a three-pointer in a single round.

All of this can be regarded as an annotation for the third quarter. Under the crazy attack of the Hawks, the Lakers are experiencing collapse, and their huge lead of 21 points in the first quarter has disappeared.

It's not something that can be solved with a timeout or two, their mentality is out of balance.

The young Eagles are more like a championship team than the experienced Lakers, because they are more determined and never give up.

At 31:15, the Eagles scored a 16-point margin in the third quarter and successfully overtook the score.

At the end of the three quarters, 77:73, the Eagles ended the first three quarters with a 4-point advantage.

The story of being behind by 21 points in the first quarter is almost a thing of the last century for the generals of the Eagles.

They did not show the pride and indulgence unique to young people. No matter how the wind blows, they only think about the victory in their hearts.

On the contrary, the Lakers' bench has entered the state of sentient beings ahead of schedule.

They couldn't believe the facts in front of them at all. From leading by 21 points to trailing by 4 points, they fell from heaven to hell. Just half an hour ago, they still felt that G4 was a sure thing, and they would decide the ownership of Tianwangshan with the Eagles in G5.

But at this moment, the cruel reality told them that the Eagles were about to get the match point, and they were just a bunch of losers who couldn't win the game with a 21-point advantage.

Phil Jackson was so angry that he didn't want to talk anymore, but he finally chose to swear at the Lakers players. Whether he can wake up or not depends entirely on them.

As for tactics?

This has never been Phil Jackson's forte. He is only responsible for adjusting the super giant's mentality to the best state and giving them the most comfortable singles space. Not enough color.

The so-called triangle offense has a thousand words and ten thousand words, and there is only one core idea: singles are justified, super giants are king!

Kobe Bryant is No.1 promoted by the league, but Kraft Nguyen, a domineering Chinese man, never ignores all rules, and he can always conquer others with phenomenal performance.

After three quarters, Er Niu scored a total of 34 points, 18 rebounds, and 3 assists. Seeing that another 40+20 data is about to be obtained, O'Neal's historical status in the finals will be shaken.

A first-year rookie is likely to break his records consecutively in the rookie season. I don't know how the big shark sitting in front of the TV feels?
Talented people come out from generation to generation, each leading the way for more than ten years.

On the sidelines, Magic Johnson was disappointed with the performance of the Lakers on the one hand, but on the other hand had to admit: "Now is the era of Kraft Nguyen!"
