Chapter 660: The Warriors have some people who can beat them, but not many!
“Recuperate and come back!
Oops, as expected, I still have to gamble on three-pointers. Will Curry start the second half and face Paul's three-pointer...
Swish——!
Beautiful, finally, I finally waited for you. Fortunately, Curry did not give up.
A three-point shot and a precise hit. With this goal, the Warriors narrowed the point difference to 13 points.
This ball is very hard. Next, it depends on whether the Warriors can continue to score..."
Hard is not enough!
You have to persist.
Of course, just being tough on offense and running on one leg to catch up is not enough. Defensively, you also have to be tough and raise your head.
On the court, Paul didn't panic.
49 to 62, with a 13-point advantage, our lake can play more calmly.
"Turn over Gasol's card, Paul cut to the basket, used Gasol's screen, got rid of Paul, and received a hand-to-hand pass. Paul broke through to the end, and he shot..."
Bang, swish——!
Can't prevent it, can't prevent it at all!
From Curry to David Lee, they are all unreliable defenders.
However, Gasol and Paul are so good at attacking, what can you do to defeat them?
You can't stand it!
The score difference returned to 15 points.
The Lakers don't understand defense, and neither can the Warriors.
The playoffs are a different track. If you don't understand defense, it will be difficult to go further.
At least, for the current 12/13 season, this is an irrefutable truth.
Looking back, Curry was pressed hard.
No matter how good the hand feels, what's the use?
He was immediately targeted when he played openly. Faced with Paul's suddenly increased defensive intensity, Curry chose to play a pick-and-roll tactic with David Lee, targeting Paul's point by name.
"David Lee received the ball from the right corner, misplaced his hand and used a jump shot to test Paul's defense!
Could Paul withstand such a test?
Bang-dang——!
They both accepted this test again.
The Warriors just took advantage of Curry, but David Lee was pushed down.
Sure enough, jump shot tactics are unreliable in the playoffs..."
It took Nowitzki 10 years from 1998 to 2010 before he had a superb playoff performance. How many decades are there in his life? How many special cases can he succeed?
In the transition between offense and defense, Paul chose to turn over Kobe's card this time.
"Thompson couldn't keep up, and Kobe broke through.
Reaching the penalty area, Bogut and David Lee came over to attack the goal. Kobe stepped up to meet the man, pulled up the stick and layup... No, it was actually a pass. Gasol cut in from the air and caught the ball, and it was a shot in the penalty area.
One-handed chop..."
Bang-dang——!
Gasol and Kobe connected, penetrated the Warriors' defense, and blasted the damn basketball into the basket.
49 to 66!!
"OMG!
Kobe actually plays reasonable basketball, and it's even harder for the Warriors now.
Hong Kong True, none of the Warriors' perimeter lineup can play well defensively.
No matter Paul, Kobe, or even Su Bei, they can easily penetrate the Warriors' perimeter.
Bogut's defensive ability inside is indeed just okay, but if the Lakers play better as a team, there's no solution..."
Bang-dang——!
Seeing that Curry had no chance, Thompson tried to use a three-pointer to save his life, but was blocked by Kobe Bryant in the face.
He forced his shot, but it also missed.
You will die if you try!
"In the Lakers' counterattack, Paul received a pass from Jordan Hill, immediately dribbled the ball forward, changed direction, passed Curry's counterattack, and then passed the ball to Su Bei who was passing halftime.
pretty!
Su Bei took a step forward and selflessly distributed it to Kobe who rushed ahead.
Thompson followed Kobe back to the penalty area.
Hey, Kobe didn't go straight for a layup, but slowed down and passed the damn basketball out of the three-point line.
The right three-pointer was 45 degrees. Su Bei caught the ball and it was empty. He took a look, raised his hand and shot a three-point jumper..."
Barnes, who also retreated to the penalty area to defend, did not expect that Kobe did not take the shot himself, but distributed the ball and gambled on an even more unstable three-pointer.
By the time he pounced out, it was already too late.
We can only bet that there are no bullets in Su Bei's three-point pistol!
Swish——!
I guessed wrong, Su Bei's three-point pistol had bullets in it.
“Very nice!
Su Bei's three points, in one word, are too stable!
The Lakers' offense continued in the second half and will continue to defeat the Warriors..."
49 to 69!!
The score difference came to 20 points.
No choice, Mark Jackson could only call a timeout.
To use the Landlord saying, delaying time is useless.
But, take a break, what if the Warriors' offense fails?
No matter what happens, I have to try every operation until now.
Anyway, once you try it, you become an adult.
It's the Warriors' first time.
If you are beaten to the point where you are unable to fight back and you still don't call a timeout, then it is a question of the head coach's ability.
After the timeout, the Warriors attack.
"Curry continues to be pressed!
It was too tight, and Curry couldn't find any gap to get in, so David Lee continued to pull out to cover.
Curry chose to pass the blame, and then David Lee named Paul again. Will the jump shot be possible...
Bang-dang——!
OMG!
Too tough!
David Lee, as an All-Star, played a 183 Paul, but he had no cards.
Oops, the card is on the cards, and David Lee rushes to grab the offensive rebound.
When you get the ball, you immediately attack a second time to make up for the damage. Now you have it, right?
Bang-dang——!
Still missed!
He is so stubborn that he has no friends!
Hey, Bogut grabbed the offensive rebound, simply grabbed the ball, and eliminated the Lakers' weakness. This time, the third attack can be completed..."
Bang-dang——!
This really doesn’t exist!
Bogut really doesn't have a mid-range shot, he only eats cake.
A tip-in from close to the penalty area still missed, and the ball bounced out of the basket.
Finally, Su Bei rushed to the basket and protected the Lakers' basket.
This goal was a fatal blow to the morale of the Warriors.
I tried three times but couldn't raise my head.
I was so stunned that I couldn't get hard, so I just rubbed myself outside.
He was as fierce as a tiger in grabbing offensive rebounds, and when he looked at the score, it was like a 200-year-old.
Not only is it very destructive, it is also extremely insulting.
This is a life-and-death self-destruction.
Moreover, it’s the kind that doesn’t have an outside line or an inside line, so it’s simply unworthy!
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Then, Paul suddenly became wild again and continued to try the three-point pull-out.
Bang-dang——!
Neither.
…
Kobe also played very inconsistently. After the three-threat step, he tried to draw a foul. However, he failed to play Thompson and Kobe chose to force a pull-up three-pointer.
Bang-dang——!
All we can say is that Kobe did it too.
Paul hit the three-pointer, and Kobe followed suit.
Su Bei felt that if he didn't hit the ball, he would be sorry for his teammates. In the next round, despite Barnes' block, he really hit the mark with a three-point shot.
Although the Lakers' offense is very unreliable.
But it was also a blow to the Warriors' heart.
Whenever the Lakers score a three-pointer, the Warriors will have to face a massacre.
Finally, we got through it, and the Lakers didn't win the game.
Of course, if the Warriors want to win back, that's impossible, absolutely impossible.
At the end of the third quarter, the Lakers were already so wasteful and were able to widen the point difference. They only scored 23 points, while the Warriors only scored 18 points.
Curry is back in form, but he made 3 of 3, 1 of 1 from 3-point range, and scored 7 points. As the Warriors' leading scorer, this little firepower support is not even enough to feed the cat.
Thompson was very good in the second quarter, playing a rare sunshine, but it is a pity that the hard work was not lasting enough.
After going crazy, he only made 3 of 5 shots in the third quarter, which was a pretty average performance.
After all, he got it in front of Kobe, and the second-year Thompson still has great potential.
But potential cannot be eaten as food. Splash Brothers, this little firepower is still far from enough.
The question is, David Lee made 0 of 4 shots, Jarrett Jack made 0 of 4 shots, Bogut made 0 of 2 shots, and Barnes made 0 of 1 shots...
The Warriors have some players who can play, but not many.
At the end of the first three quarters, the score was 64 to 85. The Lakers entered the final with a 21-point advantage.
After all, it was the Lakers' home court, and Kobe continued to play.
Su Bei and Gasol, who has potential injuries, don't have to play.
The fourth quarter was just a formality.
The Warriors seemed to wake up and beat the Lakers with a score of 32 to 26.
The Warriors, who continue to play the main game, are indeed very capable.
The Lakers can't compare, and this is normal operation.
Buzz——!
As the buzzer sounds, the red light lights up, and the game time is over.
The score was 96 to 111. The Lakers easily defeated the Warriors with a 15-point advantage and took a 1-0 lead in the series.
Kobe made 10 of 20 shots, 2 of 5 three-pointers, and 6 of 7 free throws. He scored 28 points, 6 assists, and 5 rebounds. His performance was just okay.
Subei made 8 of 15 shots in the third quarter, 6 of 12 three-pointers, and 3 of 3 free throws. He scored 25 points, 4 assists, and 4 rebounds, which was also very unremarkable.
Of course, it can still compare to the Warriors' double guns.
Thompson made 10 of 19 shots, 3 of 7 three-pointers, and scored 23 points, 3 rebounds and 1 assist. Compared with Kobe, he seemed to be just short of free throws. But it can only be said that Thompson is too pure, just a shooter, shooting from the outside.
Curry stretched his hips tonight. After all, it was the first time. He made 7 of 20 shots, 4 of 9 three-pointers, 1 of 1 free throws, and scored 19 points and 9 assists. A near-double-double performance, which seems to be pretty good.
But he is the Warriors' attacker, so that's not enough.
David Lee made 4 of 14 shots and scored 10 points and 14 rebounds. Bogut made 4 of 8 shots and 1 of 2 free throws, scoring 9 points and 14 rebounds. There was no advantage on the outside and no advantage on the inside. The Warriors were defeated.
