Chapter 511: Two bottles of poison are placed in front of the Lakers. No matter how you choose, it is a dead end!
"Finally, finally the Thunder took the lead in making substitution adjustments!
Good guy, the Thunder have a young and talented team sitting on the bench. It is a crime to leave anyone on the bench.
Now there are two people sitting on the Thunder team, which is simply an endless journey!
Su Bei was substituted, and the others remained unchanged..."
The Lakers are experiencing the pain of an aging lineup. They don't have the luxury of the Thunder. Kobe continues to stay off the court, and his good skills have to be used on the edge.
However, Artest played for too long and had to be replaced to take a breather. Sessions, who was beaten in the first quarter, was replaced.
You ask Ar, did you make a mistake?
If Sessions is useless, why not deliver it?
Jackson had no choice. He also wanted to be a good person and replace himself with competitive players.
But on the bench sat the 32-year-old veteran Troy Murphy, who was picked up, and Josh McRoberts, who was drafted in the second round in 2007 and had little ability.
By the way, there are a few new players, Devin Banks, the second-round pick in 2010, and two second-round picks in 2011, one is Darius Morris, the other is Andrew Goodlock...
On this card, if you don’t play Sessions, the only one who can play, who will you play?
The strength of the Lakers' bench is just due to their reputation, but their strength is really not enough.
Compared with the Thunder, it is really difficult!
Sefolosha, who won the All-Defensive Second Team, is young and strong, has no injuries or illnesses, but he didn't get a chance to play.
Add in Durant, Yin Baka and Perkins, and you have a whole lineup that can touch the Western Conference floor. If you put it on the bench and eat dust, do you still have the magic?
Are there any laws?
On the field, the game continues.
Lakers offensive possession.
"The Thunder continued to shrink, Blake lobbed the ball to Gasol and immediately launched a double attack.
The ball was distributed, but Blake did not shoot. He continued to lob the ball to Odom, who was also flanked...
There is no choice, Matt Barnes is left open, the Lakers have no attacking ability on the outside, and shooting is not considered alive. The Thunder will shrink and protect their biggest flaw, the basket. This is reasonable...
"
Bang-dang——!
Seeing no time, Blake attempted a three-point jumper.
As a result, the rebound missed the target.
If you try, you will die. Lu Xun’s words still make sense!
"The Thunder got the rebound and immediately rushed to counterattack. Seeing that Blake couldn't withstand it, he could only use a foul to interrupt the Thunder's counterattack...
In the positional battle, Westbrook continued to act recklessly with the ball. After being flanked, he immediately distributed the ball.
Harden continued to rush with the ball, passed Blake, and reached the end. Then, he made a European step for a layup, carrying Gasol's body, and shot the basketball..."
Peng——!
Swish——!
After the basketball hit the board, it got into the basket.
Harden scored two points!
“The referee was soft-hearted on this ball, and this ball could have been called 2 1!
Harden's talent is top-notch, but it's a pity that he didn't make a name for himself and didn't have a star whistle.
In the intensity of the playoffs, there is no whistle, which is normal..."
"Hey, the Lakers have also made adjustments, putting Kobe back on the court and replacing Blake. Now they are 13 points behind. It's really time to fight..."
Billups is guarding Kobe, Westbrook is pressing Sessions, and it's a problem for Kobe to catch the basketball!
In terms of physical energy consumption, the Thunder team has enough ammunition and is not afraid of consumption.
"The basketball was lobbed to Gasol, and then Sessions cut inside and started a pick-and-roll with Gasol.
Huh?
What the hell?
Harden suddenly flanked Gasol with Muhammad. Under the physical confrontation, Gasol showed his flaws. His physical fitness was a little bit unable to keep up, and he made mistakes.
The basketball was stolen by Harden, and he immediately rushed up with the ball to counterattack. He rushed to the frontcourt and saw that only the basket was left..."
Bang-dang——!
With an unremarkable dunk, Harden used both offense and defense to counterattack and score two points, widening the point difference between the two sides to 15 points.
"The Lakers are going to collapse, the talent gap is visible to the naked eye!
However, Billups and Kobe were on their shoulders, and Schenses couldn't even help Kobe with the ball.
The basketball is still in Gasol's hands.
OMG!
Gasol hit Muhammad with his back and turned for a layup. Did the opportunity come up or did he miss it?
Too soft. Gasol at this time shows that he is still the same weakling as he was in the Grizzlies era..."
In the 2011/12 season, Gasol averaged 174 points, 104 rebounds and 36 assists per game in the regular season, becoming one of the new four power forwards and looking like he could replace Webber.
However, in the playoffs, Gasol's statistics dropped to 125 points, 96 rebounds and 37 assists. There are still three good students and student cadres there... no, he looks like the new top four.
"It was the Thunder's counterattack again, and it was Harden again. He continued to break through with the ball, stepped down to dribble, and took a European step for a layup. Matt Barnes couldn't keep up with his steps, so he could only move hard and reach out to steal the ball.
Beep——!
When the whistle sounded, Harden's European step did not stop, he completed a layup and scored.
pretty!
This time it was 2 1, and the Lakers couldn't escape.
Harden is too strong.
The Thunder put him on the bench during the regular season. This talent pool is simply too foul. What can you use to top it up..."
You can't stand it!
Seeing that there were not many drops in Gasol's body, Phil Jackson had no choice but to make a substitution and bring Bynum on.
At the same time, Artest, who had been out of breath for a few minutes, was replaced, and it was time to fight.
At this time, in the 6th minute of the second game, Scott Brooks also made an adjustment and replaced Durant and Yin Baka.
At this time, the Thunder's lineup became Yin Baka, Collison, Durant, Harden and Westbrook.
Well, the game continued and Harden's free throw was not completed!
Faced with the problem of giving away points, Harden had no problem and steadily made the free throws and settled for 3 points.
The point difference between the two sides became 18 points!
Whether it's on the field, the score, or the lineup, the advantage is all in favor of the Thunder.
"Kobe finally, finally got the basketball, and Harden was guarding him.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! What the hell?
Kobe's triple threat came out with almost no adjustment. He raised his hand and hit a three-point pull-up jumper..."
Harden had no reaction after finishing, and was still waiting for Kobe to take a test step to test out his talent.
Unexpectedly, Kobe had no martial ethics and just pulled it up and shot. Even if Harden wasn't careless, with his physical talent, he still couldn't guard him. He could only bet that Kobe's three-point pistol had no bullets.
Swish——!
With the knife in his hand, Kobe's three-point pistol had bullets and accurately scored a three-pointer.
"Too hard!
Kobe, at critical moments, you have to look at Kobe's offensive attitude.
This three-pointer came just in time!
If the shot is missed, it will be a fatal blow to the Lakers' morale.
But that man was Kobe. He didn't let that 'what if' appear. He showed the big heart of a superstar and used his three-pointer, which he was not good at, to tear open a hole.
The point difference has become 15 points. Next, it is time to test the Lakers' defense. With so many points behind, offensive firepower alone cannot fill this hole..."
"In the Thunder's offense, Westbrook continued to play music, and then acted as a reckless man, forcing Sessions. He broke in, and then shot, stopping the zombie to make a pull-up jumper...
Swish——!
Also hit!
Westbrook shows confidence!
Neither Sessions nor Blake can withstand his impact. No matter how they play, they are in good shape. They really can't stand it. The point difference becomes 17 points. Let's see how the Lakers play..."
How else to fight?
I can only fight for three-pointers.
Kobe dribbled the ball from the backcourt to the frontcourt, faced Harden's block, raised his hand and made an unreasonable three-point pull-up jumper...
Harden still can only listen to the gunshot!
Bang-dang——!
The basket was not used to Kobe. Kobe forced a three-point shot and missed.
"With Su Bei leaving, the Lakers couldn't find a reliable player who could shoot three-pointers, so they had to let Kobe Bryant shoot.
But three-point shooting is not what Kobe is good at. The next game will be dangerous for the Lakers..."
At this time, the Thunder's old habit broke out.
In the end, they were still too young and took a big lead. They thought the situation was settled and started making various waves.
Harden was in good condition, but was pulled out by Kobe Bryant continuously. He chose to return it, automatically brought the ball to the frontcourt, and then pulled it up and shot...
Bang-dang——!
The rim was not used to Harden either. His three-point shot bounced out of the rim.
At this time, the younger version of Harden, who does not have a beard, is not in stable condition and has the attribute of going crazy.
When the status comes, no matter how you vote, you will be there.
If there is no status, it is just a question for sending points.
The third-in-command was so wild, Durant had just come back, got the basketball, and tried a three-pointer.
In their view, any three-pointer hit is a heartbreaking blow to the Lakers.
However, the basket still wasn't on the Thunder's side.
Bang-dang——!
Three-point shot, still missed!
"In the Lakers' offense, Kobe no longer bet on his own inability to make three-pointers and used the ball to find out about Harden's talent.
He found a flaw, immediately dribbled the ball through, and then, aiming at Harden, who was fighting and retreating, he made a pull-up two-point fadeaway jumper..."
Swish——!
With the knife in hand, Kobe made a steady two-pointer.
Use mid-range shots to test Harden's defense.
As a result, Harden still couldn't withstand this test.
As Kobe Bryant's offense opened up the situation, the Lakers' inside line also had space to attack.
The basketball was passed to Bynum in the low post, then he turned around, hit the basket, and completed a two-handed dunk.
The two-point scoring continued, and the Lakers showed a strong point-chasing mode.
At this time, Jackson did not sleep anymore. With a wave of his hand, Gasol replaced the invisible Odom.
Then Gasol came on the court and immediately started a triangle offensive team. Sessions went inside without the ball and hit the Thunder's backdoor. Finally, he scored two points.
Seeing that the Lakers' offense was gaining momentum, Durant faced Artest's defense in a triple-threat posture, unable to find any loopholes, and was pressed closely. He chose to step up, break through with the ball, create space, and raise his hand.
A three-point pull-up jump shot...
"Keep playing music, keep surfing!
The Thunder's normal operation is to make all kinds of waves when they are ahead.
Bang-dang——!
The basket didn't get used to him, and he still missed the shot..."
Looking back, Bynum received Kobe's pass in the low post, hit Yin Baka with his back, and attracted Durant's defense. Then, without any head heat, he went up, distributed the ball, and assisted Artest who came in through an air cut to complete the game.
Driving to the basket for a layup.
Peng, shua——!
"Fine!
The Lakers' offense found its sense, with full firepower and everyone's strength, the Thunder was overwhelmed. An 11-4 surge instantly reduced the point difference to 11 points and stopped the game..."
Scott Brook praised the players without saying anything bad.
After all, it is their style to fight randomly.
It doesn't matter if you can't win this time.
Calling a timeout only interrupted the Lakers' state.
At the end of the timeout, Harden and Collison were replaced, and Su Bei and Perkins came on.
"After the game came back, Westbrook dribbled the ball to break through, but the Lakers predicted it in advance. Artest pounced to double attack, and Su Bei was left empty.
Westbrook did not pass the ball, but chose to go up to the man, facing the intensive defense, and forced his way..."
Bang-dang——!
There was no suspense, Westbrook's shot missed.
Harden passed by, followed by Durant, who all went undercover.
When you get on the bus, you have to take him, the second brother, with you. Westbrook also has to be an undercover agent to balance the situation.
"The Thunder's offense suddenly misfired, and then it was the Lakers' opportunity to narrow the score.
With the basketball in Kobe's hands, Su Bei looked at the defense and faced three threats and directly implemented the snake release tactic.
Kobe did not shoot a three-pointer, but dribbled the ball to break through. After being blocked by Su Bei, he immediately turned around and slapped his butt. Then, he shook his shoulders, turned around, and raised his hand to shoot a two-point fadeaway jumper..."
Su Bei defended to the extreme, reaching out to cover Kobe's eyes, but facing Kobe's picturesque shooting attack mode, he was not much better than Harden, so he could only continue to listen to the gunshots.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Bang Dang——!
"The iron is strong, Kobe's shooting rhythm is very good, but unfortunately, there is a little bit of luck, and the basketball slips out of the basket.
The Thunder's timeout still had a miraculous effect..."
During the transition between offense and defense, Westbrook dribbled the ball to the frontcourt, without any further delay, and passed the ball to Durant.
"It's another close-to-body confrontation, and Durant is only good at attacking with his face to the basket. His three-point shooting is not in good shape, and he has no space to break through. He is completely unable to beat Artest, who was once the best defensive player.
The basketball returned to Westbrook's hands, but he continued to forcefully break through Sessions. This was the Lakers' flaw and the Lakers' problem with points.
Kobe helped defend and continued to flank Westbrook.
Huh?
Westbrook continued to press hard, broke through to the end, and pulled the ball for a layup... No, he pulled the pole in the air, attracted the defense, and then passed the basketball.
In the three-point corner on the right, Su Bei was empty. He caught the ball, raised it, took a look, raised his hand and shot a three-point jumper..."
Kobe jumped out, it was already too late!
If you can care about Westbrook, you can't care about Su Bei's three-pointer from the bottom corner.
This is a flaw in the joint defense attack. It would be the same for anyone else. All we can do is listen to gunshots.
Swish——!
"Yes!
The Thunder's three-pointer finally came to fruition!
As soon as Su Bei returned to the court, he used a precise three-pointer to give the Lakers' defense a head-on blow.
This three points is not very insulting, but it is extremely harmful!
Westbrook and Su Bei will continue to be two bottles of poison in front of the Lakers. No matter how you choose, the word "death" is always there..."
The point difference became 14 points!
Morale is something you can't touch or see clearly!
With Su Bei's three-pointer, the Lakers' defense showed an unsolvable flaw.
The Lakers offense is in a hurry!
Sessions was impatient to play the triangle offensive tactic. He chose to break through with the ball, and then stopped and shot a two-point jumper...
Bang-dang——!
The basketball shot missed.
And this is just the beginning.
Later, Bynum also tried a mid-range shot, but also missed.
Although he shot and grabbed the ball himself, he regained the lost points with a second touch-up.
But the Lakers' offensive momentum suddenly disappeared, and their state was completely weak and weak.
All that's left is scratching outside, the sound of forging iron reaching my ears.
The Thunder continued to score points by relying on Westbrook's breakthrough to draw a foul and a free throw, and Durant's breakthrough and layup.
Buzz——!
At the end of the second quarter, the Thunder beat the Lakers with a score of 31 to 23.
At the end of the first half, the score was 64 to 46. The Thunder entered the locker room to rest with an 18-point lead.
In the second quarter of the game, Westbrook and Su Bei became the most handsome guys on the court. They made 3 of 5 shots each, 2 of 2 free throws, scored 8 points and 3 assists, 3 of 4 shots each, and 2 of 3 three-pointers.
, also scored 8 points.
One inside and one outside, one sudden shot and one shot, complementing each other, making the Lakers' defense lose sight of the other, making it impossible to defend.
