The Nuggets attacked first, and Iverson held the ball and singled out Fisher. With faster steps, he completed the breakthrough and reached the inside.
Kobe was too far away to cover, so Hayes came up from the basket.
Iverson immediately passed the ball to Martin, who took a step for a layup and put the ball into the basket.
During the transition between offense and defense, Fisher passed the half court with the basketball in hand, observing the position of his teammates.
Seeing that Kobe had reached the free throw line, he immediately passed the ball.
After receiving the ball, Kobe did not take a shot directly. Instead, he leaned against Smith for a moment, then turned around and shot a fadeaway jumper.
This action may seem a bit redundant, but it is Kobe's familiar rhythm.
The ball didn't go in.
Familiar blacksmithing.
Camby protected the rebound and the Nuggets counterattacked.
Iverson was still holding the ball, Anthony ran towards the basket, and Zhang Zhiyuan followed.
The basket was suddenly very crowded, Martin immediately withdrew from the basket, and Hayes followed.
Iverson passed the ball to Anthony, and Anthony hit Zhang Zhiyuan with his back.
Previously, Anthony's singles performance against Zhang Zhiyuan was not very good. Today, he changed his strategy and chose to shoot closer to the basket, playing like a power forward.
After hitting Zhang Zhiyuan twice, Anthony made a jump shot.
Although Zhang Zhiyuan provided some resistance, the distance was too close. Anthony adjusted his shooting posture in the air and then steadily hit the ball.
0 to 4, the Nuggets took the lead at the beginning.
Lakers fans didn't pay much attention, it was just 0-4.
The Lakers attack, Zhang Zhiyuan moves, and Anthony pursues the defense.
When Zhang Zhiyuan stopped and was about to reach out for the ball, Anthony bumped into Zhang Zhiyuan with a bit of force, causing Zhang Zhiyuan to stumble.
The referee did not call the call. Jackson was thinking about life off the court, but the assistant coach was protesting to the referee.
Zhang Zhiyuan missed the chance to catch the ball. Fisher looked around and found that only Hayes had a chance to make a shot.
Fisher passed the ball, and Hayes shot very decisively.
But Martin returned to defense very quickly and jumped very high. He threw himself in front of Hayes and almost slapped Hayes in the face.
Hayes' shot was somewhat affected and the ball missed.
After a few rounds, Zhang Lili discovered this problem keenly and complained publicly: "Oh, the referee's penalty today was a bit biased in favor of the Nuggets. The home whistle was too obvious."
This statement is relatively mild, and the Chinese fans in front of the TV have already begun to curse.
"This stupid alliance is manipulating the game and trying to sell one more ticket."
"Good guy, this is six against five."
"It's too dark, the league is suppressing the Lakers."
Originally, even if it was a fair penalty, in their eyes, their side suffered a loss. What's more, now that the referee has indeed favored the opponent, it is even darker in their eyes.
In their eyes, it seems that the Lakers are being wronged every round.
On the court, the game is still going on. The Lakers will not stop playing just because they feel a little wronged. That is the temper of a child.
To mix in this league, you have to get used to some unspoken rules.
Furthermore, they have also enjoyed being favored and generally do not suffer.
For Kobe personally, he is even the beneficiary of this unspoken rule. In his long career, the number of times he has been favored is far greater than the number of times he has been disadvantaged.
The Lakers attacked, and Kobe pushed past Smith and made a fadeaway jumper.
4 to 11.
Kobe saved a little face for the Lakers. If he didn't join the team, they would fall behind by double digits.
The Nuggets counterattacked, and Iverson broke through to the basket and caused Hayes to foul again and went to the free throw line.
Hayes explained his actions to the referee with a grimace, trying to gain sympathy.
Iverson made two free throws.
As the Lakers attack, Zhang Zhiyuan's running range becomes wider.
Anthony relaxed a little, Zhang Zhiyuan shook him off, and then received Fisher's pass.
There was still one step away from the three-point line, but Zhang Zhiyuan did not hesitate and took action directly.
This is his first good opportunity today.
He didn't waste it and scored.
7 to 13.
"Nice job."
"hard."
"That's it, it begins."
The Lakers fans in front of the TV cheered. They were suffocating after watching the game just now. Now that the team is responding domineeringly with its strength, they feel relieved.
When the Nuggets attacked, Martin caught the ball and tried to play in isolation, but Hayes resisted without reaching out or making any unnecessary movements.
Martin was unable to get close to the basket and could only shoot a jump shot.
The ball didn't go in and the whistle didn't sound. Hayes' defense was so clean that the referee couldn't make a move.
Unfortunately, not every player is as calm as Hayes. Bynum had a confrontation with Camby when he was grabbing a rebound. Their arms got entangled. Bynum yanked rudely, trying to get Camby to stop him.
It's better than suffering a little bit.
This action is very dangerous. If Cambizon hadn't been faster, he might have been dislocated.
Naturally, the referee did not let Bynum go and called him a foul.
The game lasted less than four minutes and Bynum committed two fouls.
In desperation, Jackson replaced him with Kwame Brown.
The game continued, Camby made the first free throw, but missed the second free throw. Kwame Brown protected the backboard.
Lakers offense.
After Zhang Zhiyuan caught the ball, he was double-teamed by Anthony and Martin, and Zhang Zhiyuan made a strong shot.
The ball didn't go in.
In transition between offense and defense, Anthony strikes.
In the eighth minute of the game, the score reached 16-23, with the Lakers trailing by 7 points.
Jackson still replaced Zhang Zhiyuan, and did not disrupt the rhythm just because he fell behind.
After Zhang Zhiyuan left the game, Kobe's pressure doubled.
As soon as he held the ball, Smith and Anthony covered it.
Kobe passed the ball to Ariza, and Ariza shot a three-pointer, but the ball missed.
Kobe was a little helpless.
The Nuggets attacked, Iverson broke through, Kobe went to help defend against the double team, Iverson scored the ball, but Jr. Smith threw in a three-pointer.
16 to 26, the Lakers were already 10 points behind.
"If we keep playing like this, the Nuggets seem to have a chance."
Smith commented.
"No, no, no, it's too early for you to draw this conclusion. It's best to wait until after watching the first three quarters of the game."
Buckley said.
In his opinion, the lead in the first three quarters is of little significance. It still depends on whether the Lakers will explode in the last quarter.
"Then you should continue to be optimistic about the Lakers?"
Smith asked.
"Of course, don't say they are only 10 points behind. Even if they are 20 points behind, I will continue to be optimistic about them."
Buckley said.
Before he finished speaking, the Lakers were already 12 points behind.
But the strange thing is that Lakers fans are not too worried.
It's only 12 points. As long as the team's touch recovers a little, these 12 points won't be a blink of an eye?
On the court, the game continues.
Kobe was double-teamed, Fisher passed the ball to Ariza, and Ariza made a long two-pointer and scored.
18 to 28.
The Nuggets counterattacked and Anthony scored two more points.
18 to 30.
Once they get things going, the Nuggets will be pretty strong.
The two sides continued for several rounds, and the first quarter ended.
22 to 36, the point difference came to 14 points. The Nuggets' firepower in the first quarter was very fierce, but the Lakers obviously performed abnormally.
Of course, there are many factors for this abnormality, and it is not that they are in a bad state.
During the break, the Lakers players were very unhappy.
They were even more unhappy when they heard the cheers from the fans at the scene. Of course, most of them were still dissatisfied.
"Calm down, this is a game."
Jackson was reminding everyone to stay calm.
The short inter-section break is over and the game continues.
The Lakers fielded a lineup of Farmar, Zhang Zhiyuan, Ariza, Odom, and Bynum.
The Nuggets are Anthony Carter, Najera, Kleiza, Martin, and Nene Hilario.
Nene Hilario is a very capable player, but he has just returned from injury, so there is no need to worry too much.
The Lakers attacked, and Zhang Zhiyuan attacked fiercely as soon as he came up.
There is no other way, he must carry the banner and chase points when the opponent's substitute lineup is relatively weak.
Zhang Zhiyuan starts immediately after receiving the ball, without giving his opponent time to react.
By the time Kleiza thought of double-teaming to help defend, Zhang Zhiyuan had already broken through Najera and reached the basket.
Nene had just recovered from her injury. When she saw Zhang Zhiyuan charging towards him, she did not dare to use her body to resist.
He doesn't dare to make fun of his body. If he is reimbursed for another season, his career will be in vain.
Zhang Zhiyuan made an easy layup and scored.
24 to 36.
When switching between offense and defense, the offense of this Nuggets lineup is much worse.
Carter tried to break through, but he couldn't even get past Farmar.
In desperation, Anthony Carter could only pass the ball to Kleiza.
Kleiza didn't have much advantage over Ariza, so he had no choice but to throw one, but the ball didn't go in.
Odom picked off the rebound and then passed the ball long.
Zhang Zhiyuan had already run towards the Nuggets half, with Najera chasing behind him.
Zhang Zhiyuan received the pass despite Najera's interference, and the fans at the scene suddenly burst into mourning.
In this counterattack, the most difficult step is to catch the ball. Once Najera catches the ball, there is nothing he can do.
Sure enough, Zhang Zhiyuan continued to rush to the basket, and Najera could only symbolically follow up and try to block the shot.
He didn't dare to commit a foul. At this time, the camera was only filming the two of them, and the referee didn't dare to mess around.
The ball goes in.
26 to 36.
As soon as the second quarter started, the Lakers chased by 4 points.
"Control the rhythm and be steady."
George Karl shouted from the audience, and Carter then slowly advanced.
His task is not to score many points, but to hold on for a while until the main force comes on the court. New
Of course, it’s best to get points.
Carter controlled the ball for a while and then passed the ball to Martin, the biggest player on the court.
It was not easy for Martin to beat Odom in isolation. He had no room to shoot, so he could only forcefully shoot.
The ball missed and the Lakers counterattacked.
This time the Nuggets retreated faster and Zhang Zhiyuan lost the opportunity for a fast break.
However, he suddenly shot a cold arrow two steps away from the three-point line and shot a super long three-pointer.
Zhang Zhiyuan also gambled on luck with this shot, and his certainty was not very great.
However, he won the bet.
The ball goes in.
29 to 36.
Zhang Zhiyuan scored 7 points in a row and stopped the Nuggets directly.
George Karl was like an angry lion, yelling at several players.
You can't blame him for being so angry, these substitute players have no effect at all.
Not only was the opponent narrowing the point difference, but the main force was not given a break.
In desperation, George Karl could only replace Iverson in advance.
Fortunately, Iverson is also an iron man, and it is common for him to play the entire game.
An unpopular statistic, in terms of average playing time per game, Iverson is the highest in modern basketball, averaging as high as 41.1 minutes per game.
Kobe, also known as the Iron Man, averaged only 36.1 minutes per game.
Another gorilla who is famous for being inhuman only averages 38 minutes per game.
The game continued, Iverson advanced with the ball, and then broke through Farmar.
Even though the Nuggets just changed one person, the difference is huge, which directly makes the Lakers uncomfortable.
Facing Iverson's breakthrough, should we help defend?
Zhang Zhiyuan chose to let Farmar give it a try first, but Farmar was broken through in the first round.
There was only Bynum under the basket, and he didn't dare to foul because he had too many fouls. Iverson succeeded in a layup.
29 to 38.
During the transition between offense and defense, Zhang Zhiyuan was double-teamed before he even caught the ball.
Farmar passed the ball to Odom. At this time, Odom played the role of the third player and scored against Martin's defense.
31 to 38.
The Nuggets attacked, Iverson continued to break out, and Zhang Zhiyuan ran to help defend.
Then Iverson passed the ball to Najera, who made a three-pointer.
Zhang Zhiyuan had no choice but to return to defense in time.
The moment he chose to help defend, he was already betting on Najera's poor touch.
Fortunately, he was lucky and Najera really didn't score.
Odom grabbed the rebound and the Lakers counterattacked.
Zhang Zhiyuan was double-teamed again and could not catch the ball.
However, he attracted two defenders, which is already a great contribution.
The Lakers were in a four-on-three situation on the other side, with Odom holding off Nene and Bynum catching the ball and making a layup.
Although Nene bypassed Odom, it was a step too late and Bynum scored.
33 to 38.
The Lakers' situation suddenly improved.
"What am I talking about? Being behind by more than ten points is considered behind for the Lakers?"
Barkley said.
"Okay, you are right, everything you said is right."
Smith said disdainfully.
He also knows that being behind by more than ten points is not a problem for the Lakers. If it were not for the effect of the program, he would not say that the Nuggets have hope.
On the court, the Nuggets counterattacked. Iverson broke through and passed to Martin. Martin followed up with a layup and finally scored.
Then the Lakers replaced Fisher.
Although Fisher also suffered a disadvantage against Iverson, at least he would not be 100% defeated and could put more pressure on Iverson.
As for Farmar, it is still too young at the moment.
When the Lakers attacked, Fisher singled out Iverson, relying on his strength to push toward the basket little by little.
He was simply draining Iverson's energy.
Iverson can't ignore it, and no one can help him. Zhang Zhiyuan is the biggest threat.
What made Iverson vomit blood the most was that after Fisher reached the basket, he didn't even take a shot and passed the ball to Ariza.
This is too much.
If you don't shoot the ball, you try your best to hit it with a hammer. Isn't it great to hit it?
Ariza caught the ball and shot, but the ball missed.
Lakers coaches and Lakers fans are helpless. This is the consequence of passing it to Tiezha.
Sometimes he can make his opponent vomit blood with three-pointers, and sometimes he can make his own team vomit blood with three-pointers.
"It would be nice if he could be a little more stable."
Many Lakers fans think so.
But they forgot that once Tie Zha's three-pointer is stable, the annual salary will not be only 3 million, and the Lakers may not be able to keep him. Due to various problems, the address has been changed. Please save the new address to avoid getting lost.
