Chapter 621: The Nuggets can be said to be the only team that is strong in track and field!
The night after the Lakers beat the Nets, the Spurs lost.
Lost to the Knicks, who have yet to defeat.
After defeating the Spurs, the Knicks had an amazing 6-game winning streak.
It's just a pity that they haven't played many games and are still ranked behind the Lakers with 8 wins and 1 loss, and even behind the Spurs with 7 wins and 2 losses.
At this time, the battle for the top spot in the regular season and the teams in the first series also emerged.
The Western Conference also has the Grizzlies with 6 wins and 2 losses, plus the Thunder with 7 wins and 3 losses, which also shows strong competitiveness.
In addition to the sudden rise of the Knicks in the East, the Heat are equally strong and have a good record of 7 wins and 3 losses. After the loss, the Nets still have 6 wins and 3 losses, barely making up seven dragon balls on the list.
Fight on top.
On November 20, the Lakers came to the Pepsi Center Arena after three days of rest.
The challenge is the Nuggets.
Speaking of challenges, it doesn’t need to be that way.
The Nuggets without Anthony are entering the second year of rebuilding.
In the 2012 offseason, the Nuggets took a shortcut and chose to trade Iguodala to replace Anthony.
It's just a pity that Mamba is very good at playing dead in the regular season. After joining, the Nuggets he led now have a very mediocre record, with only 4 wins and 6 losses.
Without the added strength of the plateau home court, it is very likely that the Nuggets would be miserable.
At the beginning of the game, the Nuggets showed a terrifying impact. Under the leadership of Ty Lawson, who was not even 180 meters tall, the Nuggets used the style of the track and field team to the fullest, using their physical talent to bring the Lakers into their midst.
In the run-and-gun battle, he relied on his experience advantage to suppress the Lakers.
"To be fair, this Nuggets team is not here to play basketball, but to run track and field.
The athletic talent and ability of this team are so good..."
The Nuggets' top five, Kosta Koufos, Kenneth Faried, Iguodala, Danilo Gallinari and Ty Lawson.
Not to mention the athletic ability of Koufos and Gallinari, they run and gun, run and bomb.
In addition to someone who can run, there must also be someone who can shoot. These two people are the ones who come up and shoot.
You know, the Nuggets bench is still full of top talent JaVale McGee and Cavalry Company Captain Corey Brewer.
If the two players on the bench are replaced, good guys, the Nuggets can be said to be the only team that is strong in track and field.
Then again, basketball is a shooting game after all. If you can't make a shot, no matter how brave you run, it's useless!
You have to cum in, not rub out.
The Nuggets' track-and-field impact play caught the Lakers by surprise.
After the first quarter, the Nuggets had a 3-point lead with a score of 31-28.
Iguodala's performance was mediocre, but he debuted in 2011. This season, second-year rookie Faried performed like a star. He made 4 of 4 shots and rushed to the Lakers' basket. It was a helpless loss.
That body is at the level of a beast. Even Jordan Hill, the same reckless man, cannot compare.
Kobe failed to beat Gallinari and only made 3 of 6 shots, which was a mediocre performance.
Under the supervision of Iguodala, Su Bei made 1 of 3 three-pointers, and they were hurting each other.
Second quarter game, rotation battle!
The Nuggets let Iguodala lead the team.
Sent out McGee, Corey Brewer, second-year rookie Jordan Hamilton and Andre Miller.
The Lakers sent Gasol, Jamison, Artest and Blake.
Paul and Kobe, resting off the court.
Andre Miller shows off his ability to downgrade Steve Blake.
He made sudden shots from inside and outside, broke through to the end, made cakes for his teammates, or used mid-range shots to test the Lakers' defense, all of which were successful.
The Lakers started with a 4-0 offensive, widening the point difference to 7 points.
Artest wanted to be reckless, but Iguodala held him back and couldn't rush in. If he wanted to force his shot, he would just hang around outside.
However, the Nuggets made a mistake in their defensive strategy and actually arranged for second-year rookie Jordan Hamilton to come and guard Su Bei.
Maybe it's because Subei's performance is mediocre, or maybe Jordan and Hamilton's names, taken separately, are both Jordan and Hamilton, which sounds very powerful.
But the names are combined.
Then, he was taught how to be a good person by Su Bei using the Three-Point Rain.
"Blake controlled the ball to the frontcourt, immediately lobbed the ball into the hands of Gasol in the high post, and then cut to the basket.
Taking away Miller's defense, Su Bei continued to play music and then cut...
No!
This was a reverse run. Jordan Hamilton was played. Su Bei went in and jumped out again. Gasol flicked his hands and smashed the basketball into Su Bei's chest. He caught the ball without any adjustment and raised his hand.
A three-point pull-up jump shot..."
Jordan Hamilton is very active. As a rookie, the only thing that is useful is being active, but it is of no use. He can only listen to the sound of gunshots.
Swish——!
"pretty!!
Su Bei's three-pointer was a solid hit!
The Nuggets were careless and didn't take Su Bei's offensive ability seriously."
…
Hong Kong True, the focus of the Nuggets team coached by George Karl has never been on defense.
But attack, attack, attack...
Su Bei's first three-pointer failed to attract the Nuggets' attention.
Rather than defense, the Nuggets value running... no, offense.
The Lakers saw that Su Bei was in good shape, but they played around Su Bei.
Blake dribbled the ball across half court and immediately distributed the ball to Su Bei. Su Bei on the flank, as usual, lobbed the ball into the hands of Gasol in the high position. Suddenly, Gasol seemed to have received a hot potato.
Like, throw the basketball back to Su Bei.
Then, Su Bei shot and hit accurately!
“Very nice cooperation!
Simple as it gets, yet very effective.
It can only be said that Jordan Hamilton is too young to bully..."
Su Bei hit two consecutive three-pointers, putting a damper on the Nuggets' 4-0 offensive at the start of the second quarter.
Although Andre Miller had an excellent offense and broke through after Subei scored three consecutive points, scoring two points with a layup, the two sides started the second quarter with a 6-6 tie.
However, the Lakers' offense continued because of Su Bei's three-point threat.
When the Nuggets expanded their defense and arranged for Iguodala to defend Su Bei again, Su Bei did not waste any time and chose to pass the ball to Gasol, and then pulled to the baseline to smoke.
Bang——!
Gasol knocked away company commander Brewer, turned around and dribbled the ball through, and then hit a high-flying lob.
Swish——!
Brewer, who is 2.06 meters tall, showed the weakness of being neither three nor four, and was taught by Gasol's low singles.
The Nuggets pressed Su Bei's hand, but Gasol's hand floated.
What was most uncomfortable for the Nuggets was that the Lakers' subsequent offense gave Artest the damn basketball to play.
"Jordan Hamilton couldn't stand it, and Artest, a reckless man, drove a bulldozer and ran him into the basket.
The Nuggets have no choice. In the end, it is impossible to go all the way, they can only shrink inward.
OMG!
Artest also has this skill, he actually chose to pass the ball to the right three-point corner. Su Bei received the ball, he was empty, he shot, and he shot a three-point jumper..."
Iguodala could only care about the inside but not the outside, so he could only bet that Su Bei would shoot back and just wait and see on the outside.
Swish——!
Guessing it wrong, Su Bei's three-pointers were always missed, and they hit three three-pointers, directly smoothing the point difference.
At the same time, he also beat Jordan Hamilton.
Gallinari comes on.
However, Mike Brown chose to take a desperate shot and replaced Kobe Bryant with Jamison.
Although Gallinari just returned to the court, he used a counter run behind a screen, received a pass from Andre Miller in the open space, and responded with a three-point jumper.
However, Blake gave that damn basketball to Kobe to play.
Gallinari couldn't stop Kobe's attack, but he was broken through to the end, and then shot in.
And this is not the first time, but the second time when music is played and explosions are made.
Seeing that Gallinari was unable to resist, Su Bei seemed to calm down.
"Iguodala chose to put out the fire!
He started to defend Kobe.
Sure enough, the Lakers are too ungrateful!
When Iguodala switched to guarding Kobe Bryant, he immediately chose to let Su Bei play.
Oh, how embarrassing, Su Bei was so unreasonable. He took the ball and bumped it forward, knocking away Gallinari's press. When he had space, he pulled out the ball and shot. He raised his hand and hit a blind three-pointer..."
Gallinari's physical confrontation is a flaw. He can't prevent Kobe's breakthrough, and he can't withstand Su Bei's physical confrontation. He can only actively interfere with defense like Nash, so as to teach others that he is defending.
Swish——!
“It’s still a hit!!
Su Bei's three-pointer in the second quarter was simply amazing!
This is the rhythm that will destroy the Nuggets!
What's even more difficult is that the Lakers caught the Nuggets' wing.
The Nuggets have purchased Iguodala, and he is also very capable defensively, but one Iguodala is not enough..."
In the next game, the Nuggets have no choice but to prevent the Lakers from understanding defense while they don't understand it.
Not to mention, the Nuggets' running and gunning ability is still very brave. In the second quarter, the team scored 30 points.
However, the Lakers are braver.
Under the leadership of Su Bei, who made 5 of 6 shots and scored 15 points from three-pointers, and Kobe, who made 3 of 5 shots, 0 of 2 three-pointers, but 4 of 4 free throws, scoring 10 points, one point and two points in a single quarter, the Lakers
The attack power was 39 points in a single quarter.
At the end of the first half, 61 to 67, the Lakers entered the locker room to rest with a 6-point lead.
Iguodala made 3 of 6 shots, 1 of 2 three-pointers, 2 of 2 free throws, and scored 9 points in the second quarter.
Andre Miller scored 4 of 4 again, with 8 points and 3 assists in a single quarter. The offensive power of the two is quite outstanding, but it is still not as good as the combat effectiveness of the two swords of the "death combination". It can only be said that our side is not too weak.
Yes, but the opponent is too strong.
The flanks are being blown up in turn, what else do you want them to do!
After 15 minutes of rest and recuperation, the second half of the game begins.
After Kobe's heroic performance for a quarter, he suddenly ran out of water.
Facing Gallinari, he feinted with his back to create space, and his shooting posture was picturesque, but the result was not wonderful.
Bang-dang——!
"No!!
Kobe leaned back and hit the iron..."
And this is just the beginning!
I originally thought that Kobe would find his form in the second quarter, but he didn't expect that he would actually throw four-legged and three-iron shots... No, it didn't stop.
Strictly speaking, it's 6 yoke and 5 iron, 1 out of 6. It's a huge price drop for half sale and half free.
Su Bei was guarded by Iguodala from morning to night and did not have many shooting opportunities. He only made 1 of 2 and scored 3.
Compared with the second quarter, the performance of Kobe and Su Bei was simply heaven and earth.
Fortunately, when Iguodala focused on defense, the Nuggets did not have any player who could stand up and use offensive firepower to kill the game.
Farid is a three-pointer, and his body is indeed at the level of a beast, but he did not shoot and was targeted by Jordan Hill. He only made 2 of 2 shots in the counterattack and scored 4 points.
Even without captain Corey Brewer's two beautiful three-pointers, the Nuggets' offensive firepower would have been even worse.
In the third quarter, they only scored 24 points.
After all, the Nuggets are players who play run-and-gun tactics, and the pace of the game is very fast. This score is really not worth mentioning.
Without the outstanding performance of Kobe Bryant and Su Bei, the Lakers still have people who can stand up and score points. Jamison made 4 of 5 shots, 1 of 2 three-pointers, and scored 9 points in a single quarter. Plus Gasol, 2 of 4, scored.
4 points, rounded up, the Lakers had a lot of success. In the third quarter, the team scored 26 points.
At the end of the first three quarters, the score was 85 to 93. The Lakers slowly accumulated advantages and gained an 8-point difference.
Chasing 8 points in one quarter, the game is still suspenseful!
Bang-dang——!
Gallinari missed a three-pointer.
“The Lakers’ counterattack!
OMG!
Jamison stole the show and hit a chasing three-pointer with great accuracy.
Sure enough, the Lakers are more than just F4..."
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Counting Jamison tonight, the Lakers have already assembled F5.
In the next game, Jamison became the most handsome boy on the court, continuing to make 4 of 5 shots, and even 2 of 3 three-pointers. After 9 points in a single quarter, he scored 10 points in a single quarter with high efficiency.
On the Nuggets side, Iguodala made 0 of 2 three-pointers. Ty Lawson, who was in his contract year, kept attacking the basket. Paul used strong defense to teach him how to behave. He had no choice but to choose to shoot at the man and hit a shot.
1 out of 4.
Farid became invisible and didn't even get a shot.
After Lianchang made two precise three-pointers in the third quarter, he failed to continue his form in the fourth quarter and shot 0 for 3.
None of the Nuggets' top five players can play, and even the second team needs Jordan Hamilton to save the game.
On the NBA stage, everyone has a day to eat dumplings...no, dumplings.
In the fourth quarter of the game, Jordan Hamilton was so transparent. He made 6 of 8 shots and scored 12 points and 5 rebounds in a single quarter. His performance was very amazing.
It's a pity that the real main players were useless, and the Nuggets only scored 21 points.
Judging from the Nuggets' poor defensive style, it is impossible, absolutely impossible, for the Lakers to only score 21-8=13 points, which is not even enough points to feed a cat.
Buzz——!
As the buzzer sounds, the red light lights up, and the game time is over.
The score was 106 to 120. The Lakers defeated the Nuggets with a 14-point advantage, winning their second consecutive victory and continuing to consolidate their position as the top player on the list.
Su Bei made 8 of 12 shots and 8 of 11 three-pointers. Almost all of them used three-point shots to test the Nuggets. Who can withstand such a test?
No matter how much the Nuggets run, they can't compare to the Lakers' shooting battle that uses their strengths and avoids their weaknesses.
In addition to Su Bei, Jamison was also very good. He made 11 of 17 shots, 5 of 9 three-pointers, and 2 of 2 free throws. He scored 29 points and 10 rebounds. Above the handsome boy, even Su Bei and Kobe had to avoid his edge.
Kobe made 7 of 17 shots, 0 of 3 three-pointers, 6 of 6 free throws, and scored 20 points, 8 assists, and 3 rebounds. His performance was very passable. If Kobe hadn't been as efficient as his old 6, the Nuggets would have probably swallowed one.
An ugly defeat.
You know, the Nuggets scored the most points with Gallinari's 6-for-13 shooting and 19 points. The second-highest scorer was Iguodala's 4-for-12 shooting, 2-for-6 three-pointers and 6 free throws.
Hit 4 and scored 14 points.
With this little fighting power, what can you do to defeat the Lakers?
After defeating the Nuggets, the Lakers took a day off and faced off against the Kings in the second game. They defeated the Kings 126-90 by 36 points without any blood, extending the streak to three games.
Of course, Game 3 is here, is it still far away from Game 4?
Not far away, in the second game against the Dallas Mavericks, the Lakers played away from home and also won easily. With a score of 117 to 89, a 28-point advantage, they defeated the Mavericks and extended their winning streak to 4 games.
