So far, Long Zheng's score has reached 78 points, successfully tying the record of the second person in history to score 78 points in a single game. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

After Ryu-jung hit the free throw, there were only eight seconds left in the game.

Under the Rockets' tight defense, the Lakers' fast-break attempt failed, and with a three-in-one long-range shot from Anthony Piller, the referee on duty blew the whistle for the end of the third quarter.

At the end of the third quarter, the score of the two teams was 102:48, and the Rockets outscored their opponents by 54 points. Among them, Long Zheng scored 78 points, and five assists, one rebound, five steals, and two blocks were recorded.

Perhaps, Long Zheng hopes to increase his personal score to 100 points, but thinking of the third quarter of the game, the Los Angeles Lakers frantically chased and intercepted Long Zheng, and everyone couldn't help but sigh secretly.

In the first two quarters of the game, Long Zheng scored a total of 63 points, but in the third quarter of the game, under the Lakers players' all-out restrictions, Long Zheng only scored 15 points, which also included Long Zheng's incredible "ballooning" at the last moment.

Yes, in the eyes of most people, the ultra-long-range three-pointer that Ryu-jeong hit under the foul of Eldon Campbell can only be regarded as a dribble.

Staples Arena in Los Angeles, Rockets dugout.

In NBA games, halftime is 15 minutes, with a two-minute break between quarters. In order to give Long Zheng a better rest, everyone stood up and left the coach's seat to Long Zheng alone.

"Long Zheng, can you still stick to the game in the fourth quarter?"

Looking at Ryuzheng, who was panting and sweating uncontrollably, head coach Rudy Tomjanovic asked worriedly.

Looking at the timer on the sidelines, the two-minute break is coming to an end soon. Long Zheng clenched his fists and said unwillingly: "Coach, give me another six minutes of rest." In the last six minutes of the game, I will let the Lakers players know that there are some players that they can't stop. ”

Feeling the sharpness and momentum in Long Zheng's words, Tomjanovich nodded and sighed secretly, "It's good to be young!" ”。

"In that case, Hakim, Otis, Kenny,"

Tomjanovich's eyes swept over center Hakeem Olajuwon, power forward Otis Thorpe, and point guard Kenny Smith, and said softly: "All three of you have also played more than 30 minutes of the game, so let's get off the court and rest for a while." ”

After a pause, Tomjanovic continued: "In the last six minutes of the game, you guys came on the pitch with Ryuzheng. At that time, you will fully support Long Zheng and help Long Zheng hit a higher single-game scoring record. ”

"Okay, no problem!" "Roger, Coach!" "Don't worry!"

Looking at Ryuzheng, center Hakim Olajuwon, power forward Otis Thorpe, and point guard Kenny Smith looked at each other and spoke one after another.

Before you know it, Ryu-sei becomes the sole protagonist of this game. His every move is directly related to the trend of the game.

Now that center Hakeem Olajuwon, power forward Otis Thorpe, point guard Kenny Smith and shooting guard Ryuzheng need to be off the court for the final moments, head coach Rudy Tomjanovic needs to make a new roster for the first six minutes of the fourth quarter.

In place of center Hakim Olajuwon is Karl Herrera, Matt Bullard, a pure shooter-type power forward who replaces power forward Otis Thorpe, small forward Robert Horry remains on the court as the main offensive force, Mario Elie replaces Long Zheng as the on-court scoring guard after the break, and Scott Brooks replaces Kenny Smith as the point guard on the court.

Center Carl Herrera, power forward Matt Bullard, small forward Robert Horry, shooting guard Mario Elie, and point guard Scott Brooks.

In the Los Angeles Lakers coach's box, interim head coach Bill Betka was surprised to find that even if the Rockets were replaced by a bench lineup, their lineup was still more luxurious than that of the Lakers.

When did the Los Angeles Lakers team in the NBA fall into the current dilemma of "two or three small fish and shrimp".

Bill Betka shares the same sentiment as Bill Johnson, who is a Lakers supporter sitting in the audience.

Since the Lakers relocated to Los Angeles in 1960, they have been synonymous with a strong team.

Throughout the '60s, the Lakers, led by Elgin Baylor and Jerry West, never missed the playoffs; In the seventies, the Lakers got Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, nicknamed "Sky Hook", and continued their previous strength; In the 80s, "Magic" Elvin Johnson led the Los Angeles Lakers and the Celtics led by "Big Bird" Larry Bird to dominate the NBA.

People have joys and sorrows, and the moon is cloudy and sunny.

There is no eternal winner in the world, and with the retirement of "Magic" Elvin Johnson, the Los Angeles Lakers have lost their dominance and their strength has plummeted. Now, it's hard to even get into the playoffs.

In the NBA, because of the existence of drafts, salary caps and other systems, a common phenomenon is that teams have to constantly switch roles between brilliant and dull or even fishy, and it is difficult for a team to emerge that will prosper and decline.

Undoubtedly, the current strength of the Lakers has fallen to the lowest point, although it cannot be said to be a fish belly, but when it comes to a championship team like the Rockets, it is inevitable to be pressed to the ground and beaten violently.
