Chapter 360: Scorched

On the Knicks' side, as Lamar gradually enters the state, other other players have also improved significantly, the most obvious is Antonio Davis under the Knicks' basket, because of the team's overall sluggish state, he has always been at a disadvantage in the showdown with the old guy Grant, x

As the initiator and organizer of the offense, Lamar's performance on the court was even more dazzling, not only continuously passing threatening balls to assist teammates to score, but also began to play the strongest firepower in the league, which disturbed the Lakers' defense for a while.

Seeing that Lamar has begun to slowly adapt to his role, Van Gundy standing on the sidelines is also very pleased, and he has been struggling with how to clarify Lamar's status in the team in the previous dozen games!

In his opinion, it would be a shame for a player as talented as Lamar to be just an attacker, he should take more responsibility in the team, and now he has finally found his place.

On the other side, Phil Jackson is also secretly frightened, and now Lamar's role on the court is not exactly what he hoped to do? It's just that in his hands, the transformation of Lamar was not successful, and the reason was because there was a Kobe Bryant in the team at that time, and he never had the opportunity or determination to transform Lamar into the core of the Lakers' organization.

Unexpectedly, when he went to New York, Lamar he had always wanted to see finally appeared in front of him again as an opponent.

Lamar's sudden resurgence sent the game to a scorching state again.

The Knicks' counterattack allowed him to take the initiative of the game all of a sudden, and the Lakers could only muster up the spirit to fight a war of attrition with the opponent. In the words of today's on-site commentator BA celebrity Moses Malone, this game is the most exciting game he has seen in the past three years after Jordan retired (he has come back again this year).

At the end of the second quarter, the score was 49-55, and the Los Angeles Lakers still led the Knicks by six points, and the ball was in Lamar's hands.

"Bastard boy!"

Coatthomas doesn't remember how many times he faced Lamar. He only remembered that after the Knicks' timeout, Lamar was like a different person, and the choices he made were often unbelievable. Obviously, he was sure that Lamar was going to attack, and he was ready to resist hard, but Lamar unexpectedly chose to pass, and sometimes he felt that his defense was already very tight, and when Lamar should have passed, Lamar chose to be hard.

Cott Thomas, who was no longer able to keep his composure, made a series of misjudgments in the subsequent games. was broken through by Lamar several times in a row, which made his originally strong momentum suddenly weaker.

"If you have the ability, try it again! I'll break your bones. Cott Thomas's face felt as if he was frozen, and his voice was chilling.

But Lamar didn't care about such a threat.

Rasheed Wallace threatened him, and as a result, he wasn't blown up by himself. The champion Kenyon Martin also threatened him, and he was knocked out of the concussion. He doesn't pay attention to these famous ruthless people, let alone a Cote Thomas.

"As you wish!"

Lamar knew from the look on Cott Thomas' face that this guy had now lost his cool, and when a defender lost his most basic composure, the only thing that awaited him was to be destroyed.

As soon as he finished speaking, Lamar moved, and quickly took a step to the left, and just as the center of gravity of Cott Thomas's body shifted in the direction he was running, what was probably the best scene of the season occurred.

I saw Lamar as if he was performing a dance on the stage, his body slammed, and then he made a jaw-dropping movement, his steps lightly, and he took two steps back.

Then, just when Cote Thomas was stunned and didn't know why, Lamar suddenly leaned forward and accelerated again to leave Cote Thomas behind him in one fell swoop.

Shaking past Coatthomas, Lamar really has a feeling that the sea and the sky are open and the birds are flying, and it is even easier to make movements.

In the rapid run, Lamar turned and shook Kobe Bryant and Sprewell at the same time, just like Zidane performing a Marseille maneuver on the football field.

Breaking through the Lakers' outside defense, Lamar did not choose to pass the ball this time, but chose to go straight to the basket, rushed forward a few steps, and suddenly jumped up and flew over to meet the Lakers' only remaining long man, Horace Grant.

"Boy, I'll let you see how good I am!" Cott Thomas, who had been chasing the defense, also arrived, shouted, and jumped up at Lamar.

Grant, who was beside him, hesitated and jumped, knowing that a single Cote Thomas would not be able to stop Lamar, whose impact was like that of a heavy tank.

Seeing that there was another violent collision in the air, Lamar suddenly changed his movements at this time, and the basketball he was holding high was collected in his arms.

And just as he collected the ball, Coatthomas's big slap also flew over with a roar. Anyone with a discerning eye can see that if Lamar hadn't dodged in time, this slap would have been firmly pumped on Lamar's arm. It can be said that Cott Thomas obviously wants to abolish Lamar this time.

Lamar, who had escaped the catastrophe, couldn't help but be a little angry! He had never been a master who valued peace and swallowed his anger.

Since you are unkind, don't blame me for being unjust!

Thinking of this, Lamar suddenly turned around in the air, leaned on Coatthomas's body, and then leaned back, grabbing the basketball with both hands and slamming it back.

"Boom!"

Lamar rolled over as if he had eyes on his back and dunked the ball into the basket accurately.

And Cott Thomas was in a bad mood at the moment, he didn't expect Lamar to come to this hand, he was completely defenseless. After being hit by Lamar, he only got into the group of reporters behind the basketball hoop.

Just as he was standing up to get Lamar in trouble, Lamar's body swung again, and his ass hit Cott Thomas's face.

“**!”

Coatthomas, before he could let out a muffled snort, fell gorgeously into the reporter's arms again.

The referee saw that someone was injured and quickly stopped the game. Beckoned the Lakers' team doctor to come and check.

Maybe it's because of teammates last season. Most of the Lakers' players didn't come over to trouble Lamar, which reassured the referees who were worried about the game getting out of control.

But the fans in Los Angeles didn't do it, they didn't care whether Coat-Thomas had intentional intent to hurt people before, and they didn't care whether Lamar did it on purpose. In short, they immediately became angry to the extreme, and for a moment there was boos and yelling in the Staples Center arena.

After a brief briefing, Cott Thomas returned to the locker room accompanied by the team doctor. It's just that at this moment, in addition to resentment, there is a trace of fear in his eyes when he looks at Lamar, those who have been put in the hospital under Lamar's hands may have the same mood as him!

Without a big man on the inside, Phil Jackson could only send in Shaq, who was resting off the court, and at the same time replaced Jamal Tinsley, who was obviously not a match for Chauncey Billups, with Horace Grant playing the power forward position again, and Sprewell continuing to play as a small forward.

When Bryant dribbled past Lamar, he asked coldly, "Did you do it on purpose just now?"

Lamar didn't care about Kobe's tone, and replied disdainfully: "That guy must be taught by someone, otherwise it will be very detrimental to his development!"

Kobe Bryant sneered and said, "It's good if you admit it!"

Saying that, he suddenly started, and several changes of direction in a row shook Battier so that he couldn't keep up at all, and could only watch Kobe Bryant hit the inside line, and a back changed hands to make a layup to score the ball.

The score gap between the two sides is still six points.

Lamar shook his head helplessly, beckoned to Alan Houston, to pass the basketball, quickly advance towards the Lakers' position, the time of the first half is running out, this goal must be scored, as much as possible to narrow the score gap, the situation in the second half can be better.

Grant was just about to step forward to defend when he heard Shaq shouting behind him.

"You go defend that Haitian, Lamar will be handed over to me!"

Grant hesitated for a moment but chose to obey the order.

Lamar was stunned for a moment when Grant was stunned, and originally wanted to pass the ball to the unguarded Dampot, but when he saw Shaq kill and rush towards him, he immediately changed his attention.

It had been Shaq who had been testing him with his offense just now, and this time it was his turn to breathe.

After making up his mind, Lamar gestured to his teammates and motioned for them to pull away, giving himself and Shaq plenty of room to go head-to-head.

"Good boy, there's a kind of it!" Shaq secretly praised in his heart, just now he was really afraid that Lamar would pass the ball, but now it seems that Lamar is planning to compete with him.

There were ten seconds left in the first half.

Van Gundy stood on the sidelines with his shoulders crossed, no one could see anything on his face, he had acquiesced to Lamar's behavior, although it was a pity to score just now, but Van Gundy knew that sometimes the face of the team leader is more important than anything else!

At this time, even if he is asked to arrange tactics, he will only say: Lamar is going to challenge yours, the strong enemy, since you and his fate are like this, you go and defeat him now!

Lamar's eyes were fixed on Shaq, and Shaq was staring at him at the same time. The two of them were in a stalemate for two seconds, but in their opinion, those two seconds were enough time to do a lot of things.
