Chapter 377: Never Give Up (1)

"The game is very unfavorable to the Hawks, but the Hawks should not mess with themselves, Odom played too well in the first quarter, which is something that no one expected, and now the Hawks should still be based on defense and chase the score back little by little. Pen, fun, and pavilion www.biquge.info," Zhang He said in understanding.

Sun Zhenping on the side asked: "Director Zhang, do you think it is possible for the eagles to catch up in the next game?"

Zhang said: "It's not impossible, a big score behind, maybe it can stimulate the Hawks' fighting spirit more, and similarly, a big lead will also paralyze the Lakers, depending on how the players of the two teams play on the court." ”

Director Zhang is naturally talking nonsense, but the truth is not wrong.

At the beginning of the second quarter, the Hawks counterattacked, and the first person to stand up was veteran Nick Van Exel.

The opponent is the Lakers, Van Exel has no reason to back down, and killing the Lakers in the finals is a good opportunity for revenge that he has never had.

Jordan Famar is still a little tender, he doesn't know that there is never a pattern in the shots of the Fan Maniac.

Van Exel held the ball from beyond the three-point line and suddenly shot two steps from beyond the three-point line, and the ball flew high in an arc towards the basket.

When Famar turned around, the "Brush!" basketball had fallen into the hoop.

Fan's performance was far from over, as Childes stole a pass from Luke Wharton and then went straight to the frontcourt, facing a double pack during the layup, and the Stamford high-achieving had to throw the ball to Van Exel's outside.

Van Exel made another 3-point shot and hit again!

Famar holds the ball and passes to Vujasic, who takes a three-point shot from Salim Stoudamire and misses!

Eclipse grabs the backcourt rebound and passes to Van Exel.

Fan madman unhurriedly dribbled the ball through the half, and when his opponent was not in a fixed position, he suddenly entered the penalty area.

Facing Turiaf's defense, Van Exel flicked his wrist and played a high throw, and then hit!

The Lakers asked for a timeout, and they were stunned by a wave of attacks from Fan's madman.

On the Hawks' side, they celebrated wildly, the first quarter was too aggrieved, and Fan's madness's chaotic battle and madness came at the right time, if you are not crazy at this time, do you have to wait until you lose to regret it?

Woodson's substitution has worked wonders, no matter how much hidden danger the existence of Fan Maniac is, this guy who is not afraid of heaven and earth, even if he is 38 years old, can still complete explosive scoring in a short period of time. At this point, Bibi is not necessarily better than him.

"Don't be distracted, we haven't won the game yet, defend, defend, defend, whoever doesn't defend, I'll replace him immediately. "Who said that the old god is always there, sitting firmly on the Diaoyutai? When he should be in a hurry, he is just as anxious.

At the end of the timeout, the two teams returned to the main players.

Kobe Bryant tried to take over the game as soon as he came on the court, but he didn't give an inch, and once again used the trick of entanglement, firmly restricting Kobe's play, and after Kobe Bryant hit the iron twice in a row, he didn't dare to mess around, and called the ball out again.

The Black Mamba is indeed the pinnacle of his career this season, even if the shot selection is still far from ideal, but at least he is willing to share the ball, and by doing so, Kobe Bryant immediately qualifies for the historic league.

Gasol and Fercher lived up to Bryant's passes, hitting shots or causing fouls, and scoring free throws, which finally contained the Hawks' comeback to a certain extent.

However, there was one person whose momentum could not be suppressed, and Ruan Erniu broke out in the first quarter.

After switching to Odom, Erniu's tough defense made the left-handed magician quite uncomfortable, and I don't know if it was because he performed too well in the first quarter and was burdened with idols, or Odom was too deliberate in pursuing the success rate.

Under Ruan Erniu's aggressive defense, Odom only shot once in the open space under the basket in a single quarter, hitting a ball, and until the end of the first half, Odom's shooting rate was 100%.

On the defensive end of the Lakers, neither Gasol nor Odom could stop the manic brutes.

Ruan Erniu did not spare his physical strength, hitting the basket again and again, either dunking violently, or causing fouls and getting free throws.

He shot 5-of-8 from the field and 4-of-5 from the free-throw line in the quarter to finish with 14 points, eight rebounds and one assist.

Throughout the second quarter, the two teams were tied at 32:23, and the Hawks recovered nine points in a single quarter.

At the end of the first half, at 46:58, the Hawks still trailed their opponents by 12 points, but compared to the 21-point hole in the first quarter, the Hawks at least had hope.

A life without dreams is bleak, and a team without hope is ineffective.

The Eagles' persistence earned them a chance to fight back.

In the first half just past, Ruan Er Niu's statistics were 19 points, 12 rebounds, and 1 assist, and he was the best player on the team.

For the Lakers, the best player was Lamar Odom, who scored 15 points, eight rebounds and three assists in the half.

Bryant's first-half stats were 3 points, 6 assists, and 3 rebounds.

The assists flew up, but his score just couldn't go up, and in the entire first half, Kobe Bryant's athletic battle score was 0, and he only scored 3 points from free throws.

The Hawks carried out their joint defense tactics to the end, and Kobe Bryant missed all four shots and scored less than 5 points at halftime, which is already very telling.

Woodson also didn't care about it, and he had to strangle Kobe Bryant.

If the other Lakers players can't hold on to the end, the Hawks will win the game.

The more you are in a desperate situation, the more you can't admit defeat, and if you admit defeat, you'll be completely finished, and if you insist, you may win back.

Jeff Van Gundy said: "Even though the Lakers are leading the score, I would say that the Hawks played more clearly and they didn't waver. We must give credit to this youth army, who are more tenacious than we thought. ”

Mark Jackson said: "Maybe we're all underestimating Mike Woodson, who was thought by a lot of people to be deserving of the Coach of the Year trophy, but the truth is that Woodson's improvement this season has been just as significant. He is definitely responsible for the rise of the Eagles. ”

Mike Brin said: "I heard that Billy Knight, the general manager of the Hawks, didn't want to pick Kraft Nguyen in the first place, but it was Woodson's insistence that finally brought the Celestial Empire to Atlanta, and for that reason alone, Woodson deserves to be the best coach. Otherwise, where did Phil's best coach come from?"

It's no secret that Phil Jackson is a standard manager-like head coach who does best when it comes to putting superstars together to win championships.

On the commentary seat of the Celestial Empire, Mr. Zhang Li also said: "The Hawks did a very good job of limiting Kobe, but in the second half, Kobe Bryant will definitely launch a counterattack, and the Hawks are still 12 points behind, so they must do better defensively." ”

Sun Zhenping said: "Let's hand over the time back to the studio!"

……

No matter how Yu Jia and Da Xu are talking nonsense on the side of the court platform, in the locker room of the Hawks here, Woodson is praising his players one by one.

"You've done a great job! Remember, we're the strongest. The Lakers are lucky enough to lead us by 12 points, which is nothing, and we will definitely win G4. ”
