Who would have thought that this game would be a tie? Both the Lakers and the Warriors had reasons to have the upper hand, but tonight, it was a tie. It can be seen from this game that both sides are eager to defeat their opponents.
, so they are all mentally tough. The intensity of this game has already exceeded the rest of the conference semifinals series by several levels.
It can even be called the strongest conference semifinal matchup in history.
But we have to fight when we have to, for this reason, who wants to lose? No one wants to lose! So we have to fight!!! We all have to fight!!!
Therefore, the game has re-entered the heat, both sides are on the court again, and the referee has once again strengthened the scale of confrontation according to the routine. This will have a big impact on the player's feel. But this is why the NBA is called
One of the reasons for the highest level of basketball is that they still know very clearly what the audience wants to see. The simplest point is that the larger the scale of the game, the higher the ability requirements for players. Ordinary role players will
Naturally being marginalized, then, let nature take its course, and it will become the stage for the so-called star players with higher abilities.
What? What if the role players feel better tonight than the star players? That's easy.
It depends on whether your head coach dares to take this risk. After all, if the star player cannot play well, everyone will admit it. But if your role player cannot play well, then the blame and resentment will definitely be vented on the head coach.
. So even if many head coaches see this sign, they don’t dare to do it easily. Because the risk is also not small.
Maybe I'll lose my job.
Fortunately, these two head coaches are both bold people, so they started to make a lot of changes in the formation. At the beginning, they added a large number of capable people to fight. It seems that they have the same idea, but the effect is not
Quite average. In fact, a lot of tactics cannot be used, because tonight both sides quickly grasped the increase in the referee's penalty scale, and almost simultaneously increased the defensive intensity, and then there were all kinds of blacksmithing, all kinds of "dang dang dang~". This
One quarter of the game suddenly turned into a rare defensive battle tonight! The new member of the Warriors team was Livingston, who was a bit ruthless and still maintained a relatively high shooting percentage. This was for Cole's success this time.
The substitution saved a bit of face, otherwise Cole would have been scolded by Warriors fans again. For the Lakers, Tang Qian took advantage of the improvement in confrontation standards and showed off his power. A help defense knocked away the opponent's low post support.
, and then there was a big block that blocked Bogut's shot under the basket. Bogut was a little depressed after being blocked. Looking at Looney on the other side who was helping to cover the card, he thought to himself: Brother, is it a
Team members, help me block No. 29 when I take action.
You didn't know he was a flying tank.
Looney was also very depressed, and he couldn't explain the pain. In fact, he tried hard on this goal, but he... simply ignored his position and delayed it, and forced it over like a tank. Tell me about it.
, what should I do? There is nothing I can do. How much lighter is he than Tang Qian? He is only 220 pounds. As for others, that is more than 325 pounds of Tyrannosaurus Rex. He actually stretched his muscles on purpose just now.
, it’s a pity...it’s still useless!
This time Tang Qian turned around after a screen. Rondo immediately threw an alley-oop. Bogut had no choice but to reach out and forcefully drag No. 29 down, and then sent his opponent to the free throw line.
This was the maximum defense he could do. Tang Qian made 2 of 2 free throws from the free throw line. His free throws tonight were not missed.
On the Warriors' side, Cole quickly adjusted and replaced Zaza Pachulia, which was used to strengthen tactical support and pick-and-roll. Because Pachulia's ball quality is black and his ball quality is black, but his tactical awareness and tactics
His quality is much better than JaVale McGee. When he came up, he teamed up with Bogut to pick and roll. Everyone saw that it was not a good idea to attack the inside. The Warriors used a high and low post to pick and roll, and then
After the pick-and-roll, Bogut immediately went to the free throw line to block. After doing this, he will see whether to go down or open up for the Tsunami brothers to attack. The tactical intention is very clear, and the Warriors' execution is also very strong. In addition, the Lakers
Compared with the previous two seasons, the overall defensive ability has dropped significantly, so... the Warriors Curry cut in immediately, but because Bogut was there, Tang Qian did not go out. Although Curry ejected the ball
, but he was still blown away by a big pot on the 29th!!!
If No. 29 is not pulled out, what kind of inside barrier ability does he have? Don’t you have any clue in your mind?
However, this time the Lakers players are also in a crisis of touch and physical fitness. This is the difference between role players and star players. The difference is here. There is no way to change it. Basically, there are few role players who can play for too long.
, physical fitness problem is originally a kind of talent. Without physical fitness, if you are efficient, you can only play for a certain period of time. As for Chamberlain and Tang Qian, they just take advantage of the playing time, that's great, you can play too.
, who wouldn’t let it go? Right? Just see if your body can tolerate it and whether your head coach agrees.
Otherwise, it's all bullshit.
The Warriors had no shot time, so they took action. Durant thought to himself, I just threw another bomb!
My hit rate!!!
Why are you throwing bombs at me!!!! I hate bombs!!!!!!! My shooting percentage this year is not good enough, are you still going to trick me???
However, the Lakers failed to score in this attack. Tang Qian was very good at dividing the ball and the opportunity came out. Coupled with Yi Jianlian's active blocking of the ball, it was a big open opportunity. However, the Lakers still had no outside opportunities.
Able to shoot in, but his physical fitness has declined. The Warriors directly advance after getting the ball, and Curry made a direct three-pointer!!!!!!
Hit!!!
This is the personal ability of a powerful star!!!
Curry punched angrily, and his performance was worthy of it. He has hit 8 three-pointers tonight, and his shooting percentage is also very good. Ku Ritian's power is on full display. The Lakers are here
Tang Qian is still on the side, killing hard, there is no way, no one can stand up from the outside now, so if Tang Qian doesn't hit this ball, he has to hit it. The Warriors reacted quickly enough to this ball, and they came directly and it was a joint encirclement and suppression. Although Tang Qian
He played very decisively and quickly, but he was also surrounded by three opponents. Of course, if he beat the ball slower, it is estimated that the number of defenders would have become 4 or even 5. Tang Qian's ball also resulted in a foul and a free throw.
1 of 2 free throws on the line, but the basketball hit the front of the basket, bounced back, and Tang Qian got the ball and hit the basket again!
The Warriors came forward again with a group of people, trying to get Tang Qian to make free throws without letting him score 2+1.
The Warriors also acted cruelly. Tang Qian's hands and arms suddenly started crackling like firecrackers, which made the audience in the front row feel a little bit bitter. However, Tang Qian is Tang Qian after all.
Qian, he forcefully shot the ball, roared, and actually hit an AND.ONE under the blockage and strong defense of three people. However, he was unable to stand firm after the ball landed. In order to protect himself, he chose to follow
He slid to the ground. Although Tang Qian was strong, he was still a human being. Being beaten so cruelly by three people, and Bogut was a big human shield among them, he still couldn't take any advantage. Otherwise, he could easily fight back three of them.
If you can take advantage, you can probably surpass Jordan in minutes. Not to mention that the opponent is violating just for the sake of violating.
If you can still score like this, that's good. Don't demonize people. Even if O'Neal takes stimulants and drugs and is directly violated by a group of NBA-level people, he won't be able to score easily. What do you think? What?
You've never played a game? You've never watched a game? Then... you're just talking nonsense. In this way, Kerr and the Warriors feel that No. 29 of the Lakers is no longer a human being, okay?
After such a long time, without a second of rest, you can still score a goal under the aggression of three people? Are you kidding me?
Tang Qian went to the free throw line and adjusted for a while before taking the shot. The ball hit~
It’s not easy. If you don’t make good free throws, your heart will speed up at critical moments.
The Lakers made a wave of adjustments and replaced four guards. This was to relieve the scoring pressure and speed up the space play. The Warriors did the opposite, and Cole did not do anything tonight.
Now, go directly to Bogut + McGee, which shows that you want to lock your No. 29 inside to score points at the basket. On the outside, we can just compete, who is afraid of whom?
At this time, the psychological pressure of the role players began to increase. They were indeed not as mentally tough as the star players in this regard, so no player from outside dared to throw the ball. Fortunately, Tang Qian wanted the ball and made a hard kill at the last moment. Again
Inflicting damage to the opponent, this offensive round was not in vain. However, playing this way is obviously not the answer. Tang Qian made 1 of 2 free throws. In fact, his free throws tonight were very good. A rough estimate should be more than 65%.
, approaching 68%, which is definitely not bad for Tang Qian's free throws. On the contrary, it is an extraordinary performance. But when the Warriors passed by, Durant made another direct top shot, and the basketball went straight into the Lakers' net.
Woah. Another three-pointer!
It is too small and too difficult to score against the Lakers like this. Someone needs to step up from the outside. At this time, Thomas has lived up to everyone's hopes. He is worthy of being the quasi-super scorer last year, the one who scored 50 points in the playoffs.
.This ball directly plays a pick-and-roll with Tang Qian, and then switches to a small one to hit a big one, forcing a single to punish the opposite center Bogut. Bogut is now 34 years old, and his legs and feet are not as flexible as before. White people seem to have this problem,
Once you pass the age of 30, the speed of athletic deterioration is visible to the naked eye. So Thomas stood up and attacked directly with the ball. Facing the seven-foot-tall Bogut, he made a smart change of direction to shake his center of gravity, and then immediately crossed
+ A small jump step opened up the space between Bogut and shot immediately, and he hit it!
Tang Qian high-fived Thomas because he also needs someone to help him now. Basketball can't be solved by one person.
Covington of the Lakers finally made a contribution in this ball and stole a ball. Unfortunately, he was interfered by the opponent's defense during the fast break and failed to hit the go-ahead score. The person who interfered with the defense was Kevin Durant.
Durant got the ball and immediately led the team to counterattack. He didn't pass the ball anymore. In the past, it was a direct pull-up. The Lakers players used to block the shot to interfere, but they failed to succeed. They still hit the ball steadily. Xiao
Thomas hit the ball hard and missed. Iguodala is still a defensive veteran. Every move reveals his experience. Thomas' shot was interfered by the latter's long arm and missed!
"Protect the rebound!!!!" Cole shouted loudly from the sidelines, but no one responded to him, oh, if the opponent doesn't count. In order to get the rebound, Tang Qian forced his way in while fighting with the Warriors.
The players were fighting for the inside position, and while looking at the landing point of the ball on the frame, they suddenly raised their hands, forced to take off, and got the ball. No, it was not close, so they could only sweep it away.
"Floor ball!!!!!!!!"
Yi Jianlian really fought hard for this ball. He jumped straight to the ground, got the floor ball immediately, and then handed it back to Tang Qian. Before Tang Qian had time to dribble the ball, he immediately felt that Warriors players were coming from all directions.
Come in. The opponent is really determined to pinch themselves tonight. Especially after entering the fourth quarter, it is even more so. In overtime, they would rather foul and send Tang Qian to the free throw line than give even a relatively comfortable one.
singles opportunities. Not even one is given!
So if Tang Qian didn't want to be surrounded, he could only play the ball. Iguodala stared at him looking for a steal, but Tang Qian's pass was not directly passed to the final goal. He passed the ball first to the top arc.
, attracted the ball, broke through, and then passed it out to Thomas Jr. on one side. Thomas Jr. made a three-pointer! Iguodala immediately pounced on it! Fortunately, the ball came out from the side by Tang Qian and happened to be blocked by Thomas. This
If the ball is not blocked, there will definitely be no chance, but now, there is a chance.
Seeing that there was no problem, Thomas quickly aimed at the Warriors' basket and took a shot.
Basketball, hit!!!!!!!!!
Then there were several rounds of hard work, plus Durant's free throws, and the game entered overtime again.
It was the second overtime, and this time the physical exertion was more obvious. Even the substitute players felt obvious fatigue. But this time overtime, both sides entered the attack mode, both wanting this
Solved the problem in one quarter and didn't want to delay it further, but unfortunately it was tied again. Tang Qian withstood the pressure in the end and made 2 of 2 free throws, helping the Lakers enter the third overtime. Now, everyone has
Everyone is exhausted, except Tang Qian! So in the eyes of Larry Brown, this is actually an opportunity!!!
He asked Tang Qian, and then hoped to use Tang Qian's physical fitness to make a big fuss, and then assist from the outside with Thomas, who was still in good form tonight, to hold the ball and attack. There should be a big turning point in the game. Yes.
, this place did develop in the direction Larry Brown hoped for at first. Because Tang Qian had the physical advantage, after the Warriors players' physical fitness declined, he gradually led the team to gain the upper hand. Thomas Jr. on the outside tonight
He also feels good and is in good condition, which forces the Warriors to focus on keeping an eye on him. This is what the Lakers want now. With a strong ball-holding point from the outside, opponents will not dare to be so unscrupulous. Just like back then.
The O.K combination is the same. Tonight Thomas' defense is naturally not as good as O.K Kobe's back then, but offensively, he is in good form tonight. Currently, he has 39 points again, and there is a high hope of scoring 40 points tonight.
, although it is due to the extremely high score, 40+ is 40+, and it still looks good on paper.
So far, the total game time has been close to 60 minutes. This kind of consumption is really too much. Tonight is another high-speed running and high-speed bombing. No matter how reasonable Cole arranges to protect the playing time of the Tsunami brothers, facing
No strategy can help with 60+ minutes of playing time. Until now, the Tsunami brothers have all played more than 50 minutes, and the highest among them, Durant, has even reached more than 56 minutes. If this game is finished, it will be estimated to be 58
~59 minutes, so they were definitely exhausted. Moreover, they played too fast tonight, and they were the players who played the longest time except Tang Qian. In addition, physical fitness was not their strong point in the first place, so they slowly fell into the trap.
In the trap carefully prepared by the Lakers. But at this moment, something dramatic happened.
Thomas Jr. directly collided with Thompson during a fast break, and then his feet went weak and he fell to the ground. The Warriors didn't know what was going on, and then they went full fast break and Thompson grabbed a three-pointer.
After entering, I realized something was wrong. The referee blew the whistle and the game was suspended. It turned out that Thomas had directly pulled the knee ligament because of his unsteady foot. The situation did not look very optimistic. Lakers team doctor Gary Vitti came up to take a look.
After checking, his face became serious, and then he asked someone to bring a stretcher up. At the same time, he told Larry Brown that Thomas's game could not continue tonight, and then... Thomas was carried off while moaning very much.
This, until the referee blew the whistle again to announce that the game was to continue, the Lakers players were a little bit unresponsive. Thomas, is this hurt? It is a seemingly ordinary confrontation action, and Thompson is not dirty at all.
this……
This is the result of playing for too long continuously. The last game was overtime, and this game is also consecutive overtime. Thomas will also play 50+ minutes tonight. As a result, his physical load has reached the limit. At that moment
It was because my legs had no strength, so I couldn't stand firmly, which caused this serious consequence.
The game is so ruthless. This is competitive sports. Sometimes the victory you get can fly away in front of your eyes. The Lakers did not slow down in the following games. Without Thomas to restrain them from the outside, the Warriors suddenly started to move forward.
Tang Qian began to greet him. Tang Qian was really unable to defeat four people with two fists, so in the end the Warriors won Tianwang Mountain with a 7-point advantage.
Successfully defeated the enemy at home, defeating the Los Angeles Lakers 179-172 in the game.
After the whole game, there were a lot of people on both sides who scored in double figures, countless 20+ points, and 8 people scored 30 points. It was really a terrible scoring battle. For the Lakers, Tang Qian got it.
45 points, 29 rebounds, 7 blocks, 19 assists and 1 steal, but the shooting rate is obviously lower than before. Although it is also very good, it also shows that the Warriors' twin tower tactics protect the inside.
, it still has some effect. The rest are Thomas Jr.'s 41 points, Yi Jianlian's 26 points... As for the Warriors, Durant had 47 points, Curry had 43 points, Thompson had 30 points, Iguodala had 31 points...
But after the game, Tang Qian only cared about one thing, and that was how Thomas' injury was doing. Is he still okay?
Will it affect subsequent games? If he is absent, how long will it take? So after absent-mindedly answering reporters' questions after the game, Tang Qian went back to the locker room and asked Gary Vitti how Thomas' injury was. But he got
The answer made him and the entire Los Angeles Lakers players feel cold. The knee meniscus was torn and required surgery. Although it was only a preliminary diagnosis, the specific situation still depends on the results of the MRI. But, what does this mean?
, there are all professional players present, no one will be unclear. This means that this season of Thomas's Lakers team is over. It has been terminated early.
Although ending with 40+ points in a playoff game is good-looking, the Lakers really can't afford to be hurt now.
They have injured too many people, and now there is no one available. Thomas was also a treasure found midway. The Cavaliers had conflicts and were easily dealt with. Otherwise, under normal circumstances, they would not even be able to get Thomas. It's better now.
, it turned into this ghost. After getting used to it, Thomas is playing pretty well with the Lakers. It’s been half a season, and it’s just the time when he needs to exert his strength. Now... he’s injured. Thomas is injured this year.
In the playoffs, plus these two games with 40+ points, the average score has reached about 26 points. There is no doubt how big the impact will be if such a scoring point is cut off.
Especially against a strong team like the Golden State Warriors.
So Tang Qian can imagine with his toes what kind of external reaction this news will cause once it is released. First of all, an authoritative media will definitely denounce the Los Angeles Lakers' promotion prospects this season, and then there will be various
All kinds of suspicions are coming one after another. This will definitely affect the self-confidence and fighting spirit of the entire team to some extent. It's really... so damned!!!
Why at this time????Isn’t this a scam???
Maybe he has forgotten that not everyone has super physical ability like him, and not everyone has unlimited energy like him, so continuous long playing time is a huge hidden danger. But this is not the case.
Larry Brown did it on purpose, because the Lakers are currently short of players, so they have to rely more on Thomas. As for Thomas, he has 29+ playing time in his career, and in the playoffs,
That is about 33 to 34 minutes. He is not a player with particularly good physical fitness. Now he has played more than 40 minutes in two consecutive games, and even scored 50+ minutes tonight. It is not surprising that he is a little overwhelmed.
He has never been a strong man.
It's just that this time is a bit unlucky. It would be better to wait until the victory is won before getting hurt, but it is now. This can only be said... the leak in the house coincides with the continuous rain, and good fortune and misfortune never come alone.
After this game, the Lakers fell behind 2-3, and their prospects for promotion suddenly seemed slim.
PS: It’s still the same, 2 in 1 big chapter, it should be back to normal after this week~~~~~~
Xiao Zi is not lazy, she just doesn’t divide it into chapters~~~~~~I would like to explain here~~~~~~~
Then I heard that the national football team scored another own goal yesterday. Is this really a blow to people in basketball and football? Oh~~~
