Morale is often a trade-off thing. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 Although the Lakers still have a big advantage, when the Rockets play a wave of offensive climax, morale is on the Rockets' side.

Therefore, the game commentator will often say that a violent dunk, a 2+1, and a block are crucial, and these partial victories in head-to-head confrontations will help boost morale. In pure basketball, steals are more effective than blocks because possession is bound to change after a steal, and the ball may still be on the offensive side after a block. But in terms of the audience's perception, the cap is even more exciting.

Gasol's dunk came so critically that if the ball didn't go in, the Rockets might have made the difference to within 10 points. Now the Lakers still have a firm grip on the big picture.

Spann broke through with all his might, and during the dribble, his whole body was full of drama, his feet were vague, and the ball carrier swayed, and even his head was looking to the side, making full use of the technique of the European step, so that the young Delon didn't know what direction he was heading. Spann hit a layup against Gasol's help defense, 47-59.

The Lakers still handed over the ace Kobe, and the Rockets were still defended by Jefferson alone, but on the surface, Span on the side and Bosh in the center were eyeing each other, and they could step forward at any time to switch to the bag. Kobe Bryant is also a bold artist, biased towards Tiger Mountain, and took Jefferson to dribble in the direction of Spann and Bosh, and the two really took a step forward to form a bag. But Kobe Bryant was not in a hurry, shook and struck a straight plug, and handed it to Gasol from the crack. It's a pity that Gasol, who was completely unmarked, missed a jumper.

The Rockets' starters haven't forgotten about the hot form of Spann in the last game and are still actively creating opportunities for the rookie. Bosh and Yao Ming suddenly made a double screen, one left and one right jammed the Lakers' defenders, and an open breakthrough path suddenly appeared in front of Span, and he hit the basket, and Gasol hurriedly stuck to it. And Spann cleverly returned a layup to Bosh who cut back to the inside, and also caused Gasol's foul. Boshka also hit the free throw, 50:59, and the difference finally returned to within 10 points!

Kobe Bryant was unconvinced, gritted his teeth and hit Jefferson's jumper, and the difference came to 11 points again.

Yao Ming pulled up to the high post and missed a jumper, but Roy struggled to grab the rebound and handed it to Span. Still given to Yao Ming under the basket, he hit hard.

This time it was Van Gundy's turn to sit still, he was already tired of using several starters, but the margin was back to single digits. If the score is played in the fourth quarter without opening the score, then the Lakers will almost be accountable for this game. Van Gundy didn't have a good idea, so he had to replace him with Odom.

At this time, it can be seen that the gap between the two sides is very distrustful, and Van Gundy is very distrustful of the bench players, especially the skinny Louwe and House will be choked and beaten by the Rockets' tall guards as soon as they get on the bench. Playing around, the Lakers are ruthlessly using the three starting outside linemen of Battier, Cobidelon, and the Rockets' benches Spann and Roy are always on the court and share a lot of responsibilities for the main team.

DeLong's jumper bounced off the frame, and the Rockets had a good chance to continue to close the gap. But Bosh missed the shot, Yao Ming struggled to grab the rebound in the front court, and touched the ball but it hit Kobe's hand. As soon as Kobe Bryant saw that Yao Ming was still under his own basket, he immediately launched a fast attack. In an instant, a 3-on-3 situation was formed in the front court, Kobe Bryant feintmed, and Battier hit a layup.

"The Lakers are really tenacious!" Johnson said gloomily. It is true that the Rockets have played well, but the opponent has made few mistakes and has always struggled to catch up with the score.

Bosh pulled another step inside the three-point line and received Yao Ming's pass and hit a jumper. Usually this kind of long-range shot is the least cost-effective shot, but Bosh is very good at this kind of ball and can be called a master of mid-range shooting. Except for Nowitzki, there are few people in the league who can argue with Bosh in this area.

The Lakers were still caught by Kobe Bryant holding the ball and getting to Odom in the bottom corner. Odom had already had a three-point shot, but he knew he was shooting mediocre three-pointers, and he faked a shot to shoot Bosh to the basket. Yao Ming had to foul him and pull him down. Odom made both free throws, 54-65.

In this way, the score difference has been floating back and forth above 10 points, and the stalemate has been a full half of the quarter. With only four minutes left before the end of the third quarter, the Lakers relied on a connection from Kobe Gasol, and Gasol's jumper stretched the gap to 13 points.

"Hold on! Hold! Bryant yelled at his teammates, "Victory must be ours!" ”

The Rockets have repeatedly set off a frenzy of chasing points, but it is still in vain, and the players can't help but get anxious. At this time, Ah Shuai applied for a suspension just right. He made four changes at once, with Tekoglu, Maddy, Reed and Billups coming in.

Reed received the ball and was about to make a shot, but Battier immediately clung to it, and it was blindfolded again. Reed couldn't see the basket, but shot the three-pointer with years of hard work and muscle memory.

Crashing out of the basket, Maddie struggled for the rebound and couldn't grab it. The Lakers got the ball, and Deron wanted to take advantage of the Rockets' unpreparedness to accelerate and play a fast attack, but Billups rested for a long time and easily defended it with full energy. Delon misses a shot, and Lao Teh grabs the rebound.

The Rockets still handed over to ace pitcher Raid this time, and Battier put it on again. Reed made a feint to pick up Battier, broke through two steps and hit a pullup jumper, 61-72.

Gasol hit Yao Ming in the low post, shook off his opponent with skillful footwork, turned and hooked, and the ball went straight to the basket, but it bounced off the frame by a fraction of a second. Once again, the rocket was lucky to escape. Odom grabbed the rebound, but he was unsteady with the ball and was cut off by Billups. Maddie scored the ball quickly, and still forced a layup under Kobe's defense, and the point difference returned to single digits!

It was the crucial moment again, and the ball was in Kobe's hands. Kobe Bryant hit Maddie on the back, and after the feint shook, he turned around and broke through the bottom line, but Maddie didn't shake and kept up. Kobe Bryant couldn't get into a better position and was forced to choose a throw a little away from the basket and missed! Gasol and Yao Ming grabbed together again, and Yao Ming grabbed it.

But this opportunity to attack was wasted again. The home referee suddenly made a threat and blew Yao Ming an illegal cover. Yao Ming fouled for the fourth time! The situation with the rocket suddenly became serious.

finally chased the difference to single digits, but Yao Ming was troubled by fouls. Purzbilla came on and there were only two minutes left in the third quarter.

The Lakers were overjoyed and immediately handed the ball to Gasol for a single. Dapu was naturally unable to parry Gasol, who was at his peak, and could only foul. Gasol walked to the free throw line and hit one of two free throws.

Billups handed over Maddie to hold the ball with his back in the high post, and Bryant played for a long time, at this time he was a little tired and mentally slack. After all, Maddie rarely breaks through after surgery, and most of his attacks on the basket are unmarked fast breaks. But Maddie suddenly turned around and wiped it out, and smashed into the basket in the gap between Kobe and Odom. Gasol rushed to fill in but was already a step too late, Maddie was pulled off balance in the air, and still insisted on completing a pull-up layup in the forward rush, and he also fell to the ground after the shot. This difficult ball hit miraculously and caused Gasol's foul!

At this moment, all the players on the Rocket bench consciously stood up and cheered! Maddie came out of the shadow of the injury, and he was like he was in his prime, breaking out in one step, with grace and explosive power. The MVP of the Rockets, it's back!

Mediga also hit the free throw, 66:73, only 7 points away! (To be continued.) )
