Kobe's successful two plus one made the Staples Center boil again.
This goal is crucial for the Lakers. Originally trailing by 6 points, this two plus one made the difference narrow to only 3 points. There is still half a minute left. For Kobe, this is already
Enough.
Kobe made a free throw and looked back at Harden.
Harden was so annoyed that he slapped himself on the head, only hating that his hands were too cheap. What kind of violation could he have committed at this time?
But there is no regret in the world. All he can do at this time is to use all his strength to make the last attack. Even if he fails, he must defend against the Lakers' last attack. As long as he defends against it, the Rockets will win.
Thinking of this, Harden dribbled the ball past half court, dribbling slowly and keeping control of the ball until the last three seconds. Then he suddenly passed the ball to Dayao inside. Dayao had no time to adjust in such a hurry.
, had to take a quick shot. The final result could only be a bounce out of the basket. But fortunately, Dayao struggled to get an offensive rebound. Seeing that the inside defense was too tight, he immediately threw the ball back to Harden on the outside.
Now there are only 13 seconds left. As long as the time runs out, the Rockets will win.
Of course, the Lakers can't just wait for time to run out. They will definitely foul, and that doesn't matter. Harden's free throws are still very good. Give the ball to him, and Yao can rest assured.
"It's over, it's over..."
Countless fans at the Staples Center began to regret that there was no hope. Under such circumstances, even Kobe would find it difficult to reverse. Although Kobe has the ability to create miracles, miracles do not happen every night.
.
"Oh, no," the big-mouthed Klee finally seemed to have come to his senses, "Did the Lakers just lose like this?"
"After playing like this, the Lakers have tried their best and Kobe has tried his best. Although he is still tenacious, he is old after all. By the fourth quarter, his speed was obviously slower. This is all because in the third quarter he
He was so obsessed with Wen Hao that he consumed a lot of physical energy and was unable to continue after the fourth quarter." Another commentator, Harlan, shook his head and said.
"Well, it seems that the Lakers have given up and haven't used foul tactics so far. This way Harden can keep the ball until the last second."
Sure enough, as the commentator said, Kobe stood so casually facing Harden, not wanting to foul.
Harden was a little confused. This didn't seem like Kobe's character. Logically speaking, Kobe would never give up until the last second. What happened today?
When Harden saw Kobe's expression, he finally understood.
I saw Kobe's face looking tired and his eyes a little unfocused. He was tired, it seemed he was really tired. He was old, and after four quarters of hard work, his physical fitness couldn't keep up. Thinking of this, Harden was secretly happy.
At this time, there were more than three seconds left. Kobe no longer faced Harden, but turned around with a lonely look on his face, seemingly planning to leave the game.
Staples Center was filled with sighs from fans, how could Kobe give up? How could he give up?
However, the fact is that Kobe did give up.
Harden's eyes were filled with smiles, and he breathed a sigh of relief. He won, finally won.
But at this moment, when everyone thought that the Lakers were destined to lose and that Kobe was giving up, suddenly Kobe suddenly turned around, bent down, stretched out his hand, and pointed at the basketball.
Harden was completely deceived by Kobe's performance just now. He was unprepared and was hit by Kobe.
Kobe controlled the basketball, strode forward, and shot forward with a flick of his wrist from beyond the three-point line.
"Shua——"
A sound that shocked the entire Staples was heard, the lights turned on and the whistle sounded, and the three-pointer at the buzzer - hit!
…
There was a brief silence, followed by thunderous cheers. All 18,997 fans raised their arms and released their loudest roar.
"Oh my God, oh my God, a killer! A killer! A killer to equalize the score!"
"Oh my God, unbelievable, unbelievable! He hit another buzzer beater!!"
"A miracle, we witnessed a miracle again!!!"
The three ESPN commentators on the sidelines were so excited that the big-mouthed Klee was even so excited that he knocked over the water glass next to him.
On the other side of the ocean, in the Xinlang live broadcast room, Zhou Ling'an shouted in surprise: "Buzzer-beating three-pointer! Kobe's buzzer-beating three-pointer!"
"It's amazing, it's amazing!" Ke Fan said.
"It has to be Kobe! It has to be Kobe!" Yang Yi also said excitedly.
At this time, Kobe clenched his right fist, punched his chest three times, roared to the sky, and his domineering power was once again revealed.
On the contrary, Harden was a little lost when he was intercepted by Kobe. After being intercepted by Kobe, he was stunned for a moment before he reacted. He only chased to the center line and saw Kobe hit the equalizer. At this time, his
The pride and ambitions were all crushed by Kobe. Just like when Wen Hao was defeated by Paul.
The score was 104 to 104. After four quarters of fierce battle, the two sides had no choice but to enter overtime.
McHale's face was livid, and his anger was raging, but he had nowhere to vent it. In the last two rounds, Harden made obvious mistakes. But he did not dare to accuse Harden face to face.
Some coaches in the NBA have the courage and ability to train players like children, such as Vicky. But obviously, McHale does not belong to this category. In the face of the mistakes Harden made, he can only
I can bear it. After all, I still have to rely on Harden to win the overtime game, right?
However, God is not as good as God. Just one minute into the overtime, Harden was fouled twice by Kobe Bryant and left the game with six fouls. The whole audience burst into cheers.
Big Beard was unwilling but helpless. This time the battle with Kobe ended in his failure.
"Oh, the six foul men with a big beard left the field, and the Rockets were hanging." ESPN commentator Harlan said.
"Yes, Harden is the backbone of the Rockets. Now that the backbone has left the game, the Rockets naturally have nothing to play." Miller also said.
"I have already said that the Lakers will win, hahahaha..." Big Mouth Klee said shaking his head.
In the Xinlang live broadcast room, Ke Fan shook his head repeatedly: "It's over, it's over. The Rockets are a team that relies on offense to win. Their first point of attack is Harden. Now that Harden has committed six fouls and left the game, the Rockets are finished."
Zhou Ling'an said uneasily: "It seems that the young Rockets still can't defeat the Lakers. The old ones are still hot."
"Now that they have lost Harden, the Rockets can only use Howard as their main attacker. The Rockets know this, and the Lakers also know that they will definitely strengthen their defense of the Rockets' interior. Even if they cannot prevent it, they will send Howard to the free throw line. And
Everyone knows about Howard's free throws. It seems that the Rockets are really hanging on." Yang Yi also shook his head and said.
"Isn't there anyone else who can stand up?" Zhou Ling'an asked.
Yang Yi and Ke Fan both shook their heads. Judging from the current situation of the Rockets, there really is no such person.
But at this time, at Staples, McHale set his sights on one person. This person was Wen Hao.
