During the halftime break, Sun Zhengping talked about this topic.
"It's difficult. Except for Chamberlain's game, there seems to be no game in which two people on the same team scored more than 100 points together."
Zhang Lili said.
The difficulty of two people scoring 100 points together is actually not much different than one person scoring 100 points in a single game. It all depends on the ball.
"If there is overtime, there is hope, but it looks like it will be difficult for the Grizzlies to play overtime."
Sun Zhengping continued his analysis.
After the intermission, the game continues.
The Lakers have their strongest lineup, but the Grizzlies have changed their lineup.
Mike Conley, Navarro, Rudy Gay, Warrick, Gasol.
The height of this lineup is relatively low, but Jafaroni doesn't care. The team is in bad shape anyway, winning or losing is not important, and training new talents is the first priority.
Mike Conley and Rudy Gay are both players the team needs to train.
The Grizzlies attacked first, with Mike Conley steadily controlling the basketball and observing his teammates.
Although he is only a first-year rookie, his style of play is very steady and he plays like a veteran. He rarely messes up and makes few mistakes.
After patting and patting, he suddenly threw the ball toward the basket. After catching the ball, Warrick patted the ball and bypassed Bynum, scoring the ball.
Conley had no assist data for this ball, but its effect was very obvious. He saw that there was a problem with Bynum's position, and then passed it to Varrick.
In 2016, Mike Conley won a five-year, 150 million-dollar contract with 156 statistics.
Although there is a bit of a premium, it more or less shows that Conley's actual role is higher than his data.
The Lakers attack, Kobe holds the ball and prepares to attack.
Mike Conley left Fisher alone and ran directly to double-team Navarro.
Yaffaloni also understood that Kobe and Zhang Zhiyuan wanted to improve their statistics, and this kind of advantage would not be taken advantage of in vain.
Tell Kobe clearly that I will not guard Fisher. Are you passing, passing, or passing?
Of course Kobe can't pass it.
Double-team, double-team, who has he been afraid of?
One is 185, the other is 190, Kobe jumps directly without worrying about being blocked.
It's a pity that this time his touch was average and the ball didn't go in.
The Grizzlies attacked, Conley broke through Fisher and hit a layup.
Facing such a short and flexible player, Fisher cannot take advantage.
Conley's performance made many experts and fans shine, but it only brightened their eyes. Everyone's attention was still focused on Zhang Zhiyuan and Kobe.
The Lakers attacked and Zhang Zhiyuan was double-teamed with the ball.
Zhang Zhiyuan did not act recklessly like Kobe, but first passed the ball back to Fisher, then got rid of Gay and ran towards Fisher.
Guy followed, but Varrick couldn't.
Zhang Zhiyuan caught the ball again, passed Gay in one step, and headed towards the basket.
Warrick had no time to return to defense, Gasol was blocked by Bynum, and Zhang Zhiyuan had an unimpeded path and scored a layup.
"Zhang played smarter than Kobe."
Smith commented.
This was agreed by Barkley and also by many fans.
The Grizzlies attack and Gay reaches for the ball.
In Conley's opinion, Warrick's chances are better.
But after all, Gay is the core of the team's focus, so Conley still passed the ball to Gay.
Anyway, this season is like this. There is a big difference between winning one more game and winning one less game.
Gay caught the ball, but Zhang Zhiyuan had not lost his position and was still following him.
It was too difficult for Guy to break through Zhang Zhiyuan, so he still chose to take action.
If he can keep shooting like this and maintain efficiency, he will probably be the next peak McGrady.
It's a pity that Rudy Gay is not even close.
As a result, he looks like Tracy McGrady in his current decline.
The basketball hit the edge of the basket. Gasol grabbed the offensive rebound and scored in the second attack.
Some Gasol fans felt heartbroken when they saw Gasol's tactical status plummeting and he could only rely on himself to pick up rebounds to attack.
But this is completely normal in an alliance where newcomers beat the old ones.
Gasol is not the only player who has been wronged.
McGrady was so angry that he refused to play.
When the Lakers attacked, Kobe learned his lesson. After being double-teamed, he passed the ball and then ran.
He was not fast enough, but he was strong and easily knocked Conley away, successfully received Fisher's pass, and then went to the basket for a dunk.
"We know clearly that Zhang Zhiyuan and Kobe Bryant are attacking, but the opponent just can't defend them. This is a super giant with no solution."
Smith commented.
The Lakers have no tactics now, they just play singles between Kobe and Zhang Zhiyuan.
"With the two of them, I can win a championship even if I become the coach of the Lakers."
Buckley joked.
Coaches from other teams must agree with this.
Even though Phil Jackson has many rings, there are still many people who are dissatisfied with him. The reason is also very simple. The players when Jackson won the championship were too strong, either Jordan or the OK combination.
The offense and defense transitioned, and Navarro missed a three-point sneak attack.
The Lakers counterattacked, and Zhang Zhiyuan was double-teamed after receiving the ball. Zhang Zhiyuan tried to force his way out, and Navarro left Kobe behind to defend.
There is no problem with his choice, because Kobe has never passed the ball to Zhang Zhiyuan before, and Zhang Zhiyuan has not passed the ball to Kobe. Navarro has every reason to believe that the Lakers are in internal strife.
However, this time Zhang Zhiyuan saw that he had no breakthrough route and had no time to adjust his posture when shooting. So he threw the ball to Kobe. He did not want to be said to be a cancerous player.
Kobe was obviously a little surprised, but he reacted quickly. After catching the ball, he immediately took two steps towards the basket and hit the throw.
"Oh my God, what happened? Tell me I was blinded. I saw Zhang passing the ball to Kobe."
Barkley said very exaggeratedly, but the fans couldn't help but laugh.
"Calm down, they are teammates, isn't it normal for them to pass the ball to each other?"
Smith complained.
The Grizzlies attacked, and Gay continued to take careless shots and hit another iron.
Back on the defensive end, the Grizzlies didn't dare to double-team as unscrupulously as they did just now.
Zhang Zhiyuan told them with his actions that he did not have to vote.
The Grizzlies hesitated for a moment, and Kobe immediately took the opportunity to take action.
It's a pity that the shot didn't feel good this time and the ball didn't go in.
But it's not a big problem, their efficiency is already very high.
After a few more rounds, the score difference between the two teams reached double digits.
Subsequently, without Zhang Zhiyuan's reminder, Kobe also quietly lowered his defensive intensity.
Navarro held the ball, and Kobe stood directly behind Navarro's butt.
This was the first time I saw Navarro defending like this, and he was a little confused.
After regaining consciousness, he rushed all the way to the basket and scored a layup.
After all, Kobe was still pretending, but when it was Zhang Zhiyuan's turn, he just stood there with his hands on his hips.
Guy thought it was a trap and still didn't dare to break through, so he chose to pull out.
Zhang Zhiyuan did not interfere, and Rudy Gay made a steady hit.
"mean."
James in front of the TV cursed angrily. He felt that this kind of disrespectful behavior was very disrespectful to his opponents and lacked the spirit of competition...
Unfortunately, he couldn't do anything.
The Cavaliers don't have the strength to crush their opponents, so they don't have a chance to let go.
Publicly criticizing this kind of behavior? James can't do it.
What's more, he has no direct evidence to prove that Zhang Zhiyuan is letting off steam. Zhang Zhiyuan can just say that he is tired, so there is no defense.
Keep up.
At this time, James could only pray for the Grizzlies to give some strength, suddenly break out, defeat the Lakers, and let the Lakers taste the taste of record-breaking defeat.
There are many people who think the same as him, and they are all staring at the game.
The Grizzlies attacked and Conley scored a layup.
86 to 90, with only 4 points left, the Grizzlies have hope of winning again.
The Lakers attacked, Zhang Zhiyuan moved, and Odom stepped forward to help block the ball.
A sudden tactical coordination caught the Grizzlies off guard. Zhang Zhiyuan took the ball and shot a three-pointer.
The ball goes in.
86 to 93, the score difference reached the safety line again.
The Grizzlies attacked, and Gasol missed a mid-range jumper.
The Lakers counterattacked and Kobe Bryant's breakthrough was blocked.
The two teams played several rounds and the third quarter ended.
90 to 97, the score difference is still 7 points, and there is still room to play in the fourth quarter.
After three quarters, Kobe had made 17 of 36 shots, 2 of 5 three-pointers, and 6 of 6 free throws, scoring 42 points.
Zhang Zhiyuan had more. He made 18 of 36 shots, 9 of 19 three-pointers, and 2 of 2 free throws, scoring 47 points.
Hayes still had 2 points, Bynum had 4 points, and Odom finally scored, scoring 2 points.
"It seems we just need to work hard on defense in the future."
Ariza sighed.
Since we don’t have the ball anyway, we might as well focus on defense.
"It's enough to score 100 points together. The suspense is just to see a few hundred points."
Sun Zhengping said.
He didn't believe that Zhang Zhiyuan and Kobe Bryant couldn't even score 11 points in the last quarter.
"At the beginning of the season, Zhang Zhiyuan said that the two of them were averaging 55 points per game. Many people thought it was too high. After all, they still underestimated their strength. They are already averaging 62 points per game."
Zhang Lili sighed with emotion.
62 points. You must know that the Heat, which ranks last in points per game, only has 91 points as a team.
Averaging 62 points per game, this is the strongest firepower duo in the history of the league, bar none.
The break ended quickly and both sides returned to the court.
Zhang Zhiyuan and Kobe didn't even take a break.
Even though they made a lot of shots before and were double-teamed wonderfully, their physical exertion was not particularly great.
On the one hand, the Grizzlies' defense is not strong, and on the other hand, the two of them were lazy on the defensive end.
Seeing the two big demons Zhang Zhiyuan and Kobe Bryant continuing to fight without rest, Yafaloni looked very ugly.
"Keep them from scoring, whatever it takes."
Jafaroni ordered.
"..."
Grizzlies players, they really want to ask if this order is too late.
However, they still followed the coach's instructions.
After playing, Kobe and Zhang Zhiyuan were double-teamed again.
Different from the previous double team, this time they did not return to defense and were ready to let the rest of the Lakers score at will.
Facing the defense, Kobe passed to Fisher.
Conley did not go back to defend, but still stuck to Kobe, making Kobe unable to get rid of the entanglement for a while.
Fisher couldn't wait any longer. Seeing that Zhang Zhiyuan was also double-teamed, he simply made a shot himself.
What’s surprising is that he didn’t win yet.
Fisher was a little embarrassed and scratched his bald head.
In the transition between offense and defense, the Grizzlies offense was still the same, with the Lakers defending symbolically.
Gasol made a jump shot from the basket.
The Lakers attacked, and Kobe took a shot against the double team.
The ball didn't go in.
The Grizzlies counterattacked successfully.
94 to 97, the point difference was actually narrowed to 3 points, a dangerous number.
The Lakers attacked and the ball went into Zhang Zhiyuan's hands.
Unfortunately, he was uncomfortable shooting when facing double teams and missed the ball.
The Grizzlies counterattacked, and Navarro made a sudden shot and hit.
97 to 97, the Grizzlies actually tied.
"Hahaha, they deserve to be so wasteful. It's best to let them lose this game and let them have a longer memory."
Buckley said gloatingly.
"I'm afraid this is a bit difficult, but I support the Grizzlies' reversal."
Smith laughed.
Not only does Smith support it, many fans also support the Grizzlies in their hearts.
Probably because the Lakers' previous behavior was a bit too much like the villain, the Grizzlies fans were more sympathetic.
On the court, Kobe shouted "Game over" to remind others to get serious.
This is a bit redundant. At this time, except Bynum, I am afraid no one will continue to be indifferent.
The Lakers attacked, Zhang Zhiyuan attracted double-teams and then passed the ball. Odom took an open shot and hit it easily.
97 to 99.
During the transition between offense and defense, the entire Lakers team turned up the intensity, and the Grizzlies were almost forced to commit a 24-second violation.
No one could find a good opportunity, and in the end Navarro forced a throw.
The Lakers attacked, Zhang Zhiyuan ran without the ball, got rid of his opponent and cut to the basket. Fisher passed the ball, and Zhang Zhiyuan caught the ball and made a layup.
The Grizzlies defenders all ran to the outside and could only watch Zhang Zhiyuan score.
97 to 101.
The Grizzlies attacked and Gay missed a jump shot.
When the Lakers get serious, the Grizzlies have no chance at all unless their entire team breaks out, which is very unlikely.
After two more rounds, the score difference reached 9 points.
Then the Grizzlies realized the reality, were completely discouraged, and stopped thinking about it.
After they were discouraged, their defense dropped to another level, and even the double-teaming of the double stars was not as rigorous as before.
As a result, Kobe and Zhang Zhiyuan had many more opportunities. Naturally, they were not polite and kept investing.
Soon, the two scored over 100 points.
This is not over yet, they continue to fight.
"Defend, defend."
Jafaroni jumped up and down in frustration, but it was no use.
The Grizzlies players have lost their fighting spirit and just want to get off work as soon as possible and end this damn season.
Kobe took a fadeaway shot and the ball went in.
Zhang Zhiyuan broke through for a layup and scored.
With 4 minutes left in the game, the score was 104 to 117, and the Lakers were already leading by 13 points.
There are still 4 minutes left, and theoretically there is still a chance for a comeback.
But Jafaloni replaced all the main forces and surrendered in advance.
No one thought there was anything wrong with what he did.
The Grizzlies surrendered, and it was hard for Kobe and Zhang Zhiyuan to continue playing, otherwise they would be able to increase their numbers.
All previous actions can be explained by tactical play, but if the opponent continues to fight after surrendering, that is just a data brush.
Ever since, after Kobe Bryant and Zhang Zhiyuan each played one round, they both sat on the bench.
When they came off the court, one had scored 52 points and the other had scored 57 points.
In one game, two players reached 50 points at the same time a total of 4 times. Three of them were from the Chamberlain era, so there is no comparative value.
There was another game between the Lakers and the Warriors in 2000. Kobe scored 51 points, and the Warriors' Jamison also scored
51 points.
As for two people on the same team scoring 50 at the same time, this is the first time.
Moreover, there is probably no hope that it will happen again in the future.
To achieve such a feat requires too many prerequisites and luck.
This game is probably also a swan song.
Before the game was over, the fans at the scene were in a state of carnival.
It's such a wonderful feeling to witness the team's invincible moment.
They shouted MVP, but they didn’t know who the MVP was for. Due to various problems, the address was changed. Please save the new address to avoid getting lost.
