The Lakers advertise that there is harmony within the team, the players are confident of winning, and Kobe Bryant's tone is somewhat similar to James'.

If you lose confidence, you're going to lose, and as long as this series isn't over, there's a chance.

When the players at the Stamps Center played, Zhou Xuan found that Kobe Bryant was not as cool as he did in the first game. The others appeared hastily with solemn expressions.

"With this kind of morale, we have won, I'm afraid even these Lakers players don't believe in a reversal, right?" Zhou Xuan smiled secretly in his heart.

TNT Radio broadcast the game live, and Barkley said before the game: "Back at home, I don't know if the Lakers can steal a win, they have to win three games in a row to advance." However, in the regular season, the Warriors have never lost three games in a row, and Turiaf can also play this game. ”

Smith smiled: "I'm also optimistic that the Warriors will advance today or in the next game, the Warriors don't have superstars, not only compared with the Lakers, but the Magic and Cavaliers also have signature stars." Until now, the Warriors have no clear core, the data Randolph is the most beautiful, and it is also crucial to see the role of Zhou Xuan, and the defense of a few swing men is also essential. In every game, there is always someone who can play at a high level. ”

Barkley said: "I think Randolph and Zhou Xuan are the core, and going into the playoffs, they still played consistent numbers. ”

In Staples, it was easier for Zhou Xuan to enter the realm of heart like water, and walked to the field with an expressionless face.

As soon as he looked at the starting lineup, the "Zen Master" was taken aback. In the crucial game, the old Nelson actually made a surprise move to change the formation.

The starting center is Turiaf, and the other four are Marion, Jackson, Ellis, and Zhou Xuan. Neither Randolph nor Magetti started.

And the Lakers' starters are still Fisher, Kobe, Ariza, Odom, and Gasol.

CCTV5 was in charge of commenting the game, Su Qun sighed: "The Warriors changed formations, Randolph was not injured, and I just saw him practice shooting, which is a special arrangement for old Nelson." ”

Yang Jian said: "I think after the first four games of the Lakers, the coaching staff must have studied how to defend Ellis in the second quarter, so that the Warriors could not play a quick counterattack, but now as soon as the formation changes, the main attack in the second quarter is Margeti and Randolph, if the two strong men, the Lakers will definitely have to change their style of play." And as soon as it comes up, it is estimated that the double defenders will play fast. Whether it's Essley or Zhou Xuan, Fisher is very difficult to deal with. ”

When Turyaf was on the court, he heard boos from the fans, and Bynum was interviewed about Turyaf's spit, and it was his provocation that caused the Lakers to lose a big man. This time he became a starter, and he can also play a mocking role. It makes the Lakers players and fans uncomfortable.

When he was with the Lakers, Turyaf and Kobe Bryant had a good relationship and filmed an ad for jumping out of the car together, but now Kobe Bryant doesn't pay attention to him at all, and he doesn't even look at it. Turiaf, who has made the Lakers' strength plummet, already has a reason to hate him.

The race is on.

Turyaf, who ended the suspension and became a starter, was full of energy, beating Gasol on a jump ball to win the ball for the Warriors, and Ellis passed the ball to Zhou Xuan.

The formation of the two sides was opened, and the opening was Fisher defending Zhou Xuan. Lakers players know that Fisher can't guard Ellis, and he can guard Ellis as a player of the level of a "smiling assassin", just like if the Warriors let Morrow start, they will guard Kobe Bryant as Jordan.

At the top of the arc, Zhou Xuan slowed down and looked up to observe the situation. Fisher didn't dare to relax for a moment, and Zhou Xuan could break through or shoot at any time.

He guessed correctly, Zhou Xuan didn't wait for the block, and suddenly accelerated to break through to the left, Turiaf was in the low position on this side, Gasol couldn't defend him, and if Ariza helped defend, he could pass the ball to Jackson to create a chance, and with the obvious height advantage, it was difficult for Fisher to block Jackson. In addition, Zhou Xuan can also play blocking and dismantling with his teammates, Turyaf is not like Randolph, he can't beat Gasol in the low post.

Seeing that Zhou Xuan chose this way, Turiaf pulled outside and stood still to block Fisher.

The last few pick-and-rolls have been mostly Odom's work, and now Odom is following Marion in the other corner. Zhou Xuan shook off Fisher, but did not rush to the basket, stepped back and made a jumper, Gasol was worried that the Warriors player cut from the other side and did not defend too far, Zhou Xuan took advantage of this and hit the board at a 60-degree angle. 2 to 0.

Okay, it feels good today, it looks like you can cast a few more. Back on the defensive end, Zhou Xuan followed Kobe Bryant, and Ellis went to defend Fisher. As long as the shot misses, Ellis can immediately counter the single.

Bryant didn't attack as hard as he did in the first two games, passing the ball to Gasol from the side. It seems that the "Zen master" communicated with him to play a role, or too many people said that he shot a lot, and he wanted to do the "performance" against the sun again. In any case, Gasol will be a little harder than the first four games, because the defender has replaced him with Turiaf.

If Bynum was on the floor, Gasol could have singled Marion in the low post, but since "Little Shark" was out, he had to "top the bull" with the fat man in the low post every game.

Turyaf defended strongly, moved slowly, and no one else came up to help. Gasol dribbled with his back to the side, his left shoulder swayed, his left foot as the axis, and his right foot took a step towards the middle, then retracted and turned to the baseline for a jumper. Turyaf was not shaken off, jumped up with all his strength to interfere, the ball bounced out of the frame, and Marion grabbed the rebound.

Zhou Xuan and Ellis rushed to the front court together, Marion made a long pass to Ellis, the ball was a little high, Ellis jumped up to catch the ball, and Fisher resisted from behind, making him unable to turn calmly.

Zhou Xuan ran towards Ellis, raised his hands to ask for the ball, Ellis passed, Zhou Xuan received the ball and looked like he was about to break through from Fisher, and suddenly pulled the ball back.

Kobe Bryant and Fisher both thought he was going to break through at this moment, so they chose to retreat and wanted to complete the change of defense. Zhou Xuan stepped back to face Ellis, stepped on the three-point line in the middle and pulled out his hand.

Relying on Ellis's cover, Zhou Xuan was confident that no one could block it, except on the side. Brush! The ball hollows into the net. 4 to 0.

The Lakers attacked, Kobe Bryant didn't pass to Gasol again, and Odom played a pick-and-roll. Bryant admits that Gasol is a good interior star, but his trust in him is limited. Playing Randolph and Marion Gasol ensures efficiency, but can Turyaf still play the same? He hadn't seen Gasol dominate the game with offense. How can a person who averages 20 points per game at his peak compare with him, a man who scores 35 points at his peak? Kobe Bryant believes that he can now average 35 points per game if he wants to, and his scoring statistics have dropped because of his "selflessness".

After the block, Bryant faced Marion, dribbled the ball to the right low post, turned to the middle and threw the ball backwards. 4 to 2.

The Warriors attacked, and Zhou Xuan didn't find a block for half the court. He has already made up his mind, as long as the Lakers dare to let Fisher defend, he will attack directly, others can still save physical strength when they open the opportunity to fight, and when the Lakers' offense is counterattacked, he can run faster.

Fisher didn't dare to get too close, for fear that his opponent would pass him by speeding up. Zhou Xuan took a step to the right and dribbled the ball to his left hand, Fisher moved to the left side in small steps, and Zhou Xuan then dribbled the ball back with his left hand and shook the ball to the right with his right shoulder.

Fisher hurriedly changed direction again, Zhou Xuan observed his footsteps, after a few games, he had completely mastered Fisher's rhythm, and then changed direction to the left with the ball in his right hand. A big step with his left leg and a successful pass.

Turiaf was still standing under the basket, Gasol didn't come out, the others were too far away, Zhou Xuan was empty, and the third emergency stop jump shot was hit again. 6 to 2.

When returning to the defense, Zhou Xuan looked at Kobe Bryant and showed a smile. This series is the first time Kobe Bryant has seen Zhou Xuan laugh in the game, is this a provocation? He was depressed again, and even Fisher didn't trust him anymore, because Zhou Xuan, who was defending Fisher, laughed.

Kobe Bryant tried to shoot again by blocking and picking, and this time the Warriors caught it. Jackson let go of Ariza and blocked Bryant from the side with Marion. Kobe Bryant knew that Ariza was empty but didn't pass, he passed a lot of this kind of ball on the court, Zhou Xuan would change positions to interfere, and Ariza missed a lot of balls.

In team practice, Ariza was a mid-to-long-range shooter, and Bryant knew that, so he made a feint and then jumped to the middle of the field for a pull-up jumper. His idea is very simple, as long as he adds a little back, it will be difficult for the two-person bag to cover him.

But he miscalculated another person, seeing that Kobe Bryant didn't look in the direction of Ariza, Zhou Xuan changed his mind and bypassed Odom to the middle, and when Kobe jumped, he also jumped up and poked the ball off from behind with one hand.

Zhou Xuan did not use the action of blocking, his wrist did not press down, but he plucked the ball to the inside line with one hand, this action was very light, and the referee hesitated for a moment without blowing the whistle. Odom couldn't catch the ball on the periphery, unless Gasol grabbed it, and Marion on the front was fast and took the basketball first.

As soon as Zhou Xuan landed and turned around, he ran to the frontcourt, Odom hurried back to defense, Kobe Bryant did not complain to chase Zhou Xuan, and Jackson passed the ball to Ellis.

Ellis sprinted past half court and Fisher interfered in front of him. Zhou Xuan accelerated and rushed to the free throw line, took a quick stop, turned around and ran out. Equipment can also enhance the strength of the player, and the "Mage Generation" under his feet is very well designed, and he can stop when he says stop. He turned his head to find Turiaf, found a cover himself, and ran out of the three-point line without Kobe.

Ellis knew that he had made a good throw, and he didn't force Fisher, and passed the ball over. Zhou Xuan received the ball and stepped out of the three-point line in one step, turned around on the left side and made a jump shot without the slightest pause.

Odom defended quickly and went directly into the inside, Kobe Bryant was blocked, and Zhou Xuan formed an empty space. He threw the ball very relaxed, the position was what he liked, and he added a small back. Brush! It's hollow again. 9 to 2.

In the crucial battle, Zhou Xuan knew that the Lakers players must be under a lot of pressure, and the opponent was under a lot of pressure, which made him feel more relaxed, scoring 9 points in a row, and the basket was as wide as the sea.
