Chapter 261: Excitement and Nervousness
Before the start of the game, the reporters finally caught the Lakers players who came to the arena to start pregame training, but because they were about to enter the game, the reporters were not easy to interview them, and everything had to be put on after the game.
Luo Han found head coach Wharton: "Coach, I have a request for this game, and I hope to get your consent." ”
"Oh, what request?" Luke. Wharton looked at Luo Han with a serious face with interest, in fact, he had vaguely guessed what Luo Han wanted to say.
"I want to show a different me in this game, so I ask the coach to give me unlimited firing rights."
"Haha, o, what's so difficult about this, isn't it the right to fire unlimitedly, now you have the qualifications to ask for this privilege, I believe you have a sense of proportion, let it go." Wharton smiled and patted Luo Han's shoulder, readily agreeing.
"Thank you, coach, I won't disappoint you again this time."
"Don't put so much pressure on yourself, all superstars start with their failures, so your last lore failure is nothing. If you ask Kobe, he'll tell you that he made two three-hits when he threw a kill, but now he's still the player who hits the most shots in the league, so let it go. ”
As Luo Han said, he showed a different self from the past in this game, playing very aggressively, and even fighting with the Warriors' Splash Brothers. As long as one of the Splash Brothers shoots and scores, Luo Han will definitely return the color, Luo Han only got 17 points and 3 assists in the first half, while his teammates played averagely.
But after all, it was difficult to beat four palms with two fists, and at halftime, the Lakers still ended the first half of the game by five points. Back in the lounge, Wharton's expression was very stern, and he said to the Lakers players who were also frustrated: "I don't know what happened to you guys in this game, right, are you all focused on dealing with the strippers in the nightclub?" One by one, where did your aggressiveness go, where did your hit rate go? ”
"Wouldn't you be able to play without Kobe, without LaMarcus, except for O? I don't want to see you guys still like this in the second half, running more and taking out more "(7)dǐng" (7)diǎn『(7)小『(7) said,.▲.≥os_(); As soon as the spirit of the diǎn comes, in the first half o has played well enough, the ball has been passed, and the points have been taken, and now it is up to the rest of you to share the pressure on o. ”
No one took Wharton's words, because they all knew that they did not play well in this game, and many times the ball that had had a chance was not thrown, and it was forced to be against the two Splash Brothers opposite, which is not a team with championship competition strength should show the strength and play.
"It's true that this game without Kobe Bryant and without LaMarcus is a big test for our Lakers, and because of this, we need to play even more for the rest of you. You're all very strong players, so you have to play your best and let them see that our Lakers, even without Kobe Bryant, without LaMarcus, can play well, okay? ”
In the end, it's Tyson. Chandler, a veteran player, stood up and spoke: "Coach, it's true that we didn't play well in the first half of this game, and we dragged O back, but in the second half we will definitely give 100% of our mental strength." ”
"Okay, look at your watch." Wharton smiled slightly.
After Wharton's training, the Lakers' generals were really much better in the second half, and all the shots that came out of the opportunity were shot, and the feelings of the players were also much higher. But the Warriors are still a strong team after all, and on the basis of the Lakers' loss of two big players, even if the other players have played much better than in the first half, but after three quarters, the Lakers still did not overtake the score.
With only 30 seconds left before the end of the game, each side had one chance to attack, and so far the Lakers and Warriors were tied 105-105. "Brothers, it's the last moment again, if we want to win this game, the first thing we have to do is to do a good job in the next defense, and the initiative will be in our hands after the defense, you know? Okay, let's play, be careful to keep an eye on your own people. “
First it was the Warriors' turn to attack, with Curry dribbling the ball outside the three-point line, looking for an opportunity. At this moment, everyone's attention is on Curry, more precisely on the ball in Curry's hands. Luo Han didn't give Curry any chance, and directly blocked Curry's any breakthrough and shooting line, and the only remaining option was passing.
But Curry is not the only one who can attack the Warriors, and their tactics are very well coordinated, in this round of offense, the Warriors have three pick-and-rolls alone, constantly running and passing the ball. I have to say that the success of the Warriors is not only in Curry, or the pair of backcourt guns of the Splash Brothers, but also in the Warriors' cooperation.
So in the end, it was Lakers guard Clarkson's defense that was a little slower, allowing Klay to be a little slower. Thompson hit a mid-range shot, and the Lakers head coach called a timeout for the last timeout. "Now, my players, forget about the defensive failure, it's not your fault, the next thing I'm going to do is to arrange the last seven seconds, it's our only chance in this game." "The next players to come on the court are O, Tyson, Harrison, Clarkson, and Wesley, you five, give the ball to O. Everyone pays attention to the running position and waits for the pass after the opportunity, you know? "And o, you have to forget about the last lore failure, just think it was a very ordinary shot, and believe that you will definitely make it." "Okay, coach, I'll be ready, believe I can pitch." Luo Han's eyes revealed a look of identification.
There are still 7 seconds left at the end of the game, and everyone knows that the last shot must be handed over to Luo Han to shoot, so Green, Livingston, who has the best defense on the Warriors, both focused on Luo Han, and all the pressure was on Luo Han alone at the moment.
This time Luo Han did not stand on the sidelines to serve, since they all knew that this last ball would let Luo Han shoot, then there was no need to spend this effort, and there would be one more possibility of a mistake.
Luo Han stood outside the three-point line, Green next to him clinging to Luo Han's side, and Livingston also eyed Luo Han. The serve was very smooth, the ball honestly passed to Luo Han's hands, 7 seconds, long and short, and it was enough for Luo Han to complete a good shot.
At this time, Luo Han didn't feel nervous anymore, all that was left was excitement and the basket hanging high in the air. still has to shake people, after Luo Han got the ball, he immediately started dribbling, and time only left Luo Han a chance to rossor.
The effect is not bad, that is, taking advantage of this opportunity of Rossor, Luo Han and Green have opened up a step of distance, which is enough for Luo Han. I saw Luo Han retract his steps, jump as high as he could, and then make a move.
Everyone's eyes were focused on the basketball in the air, the same scene as a few days ago, it was still Luo Han's last shot, but the opponent was changed from the Thunder to the Warriors, but this time God was on Luo Han's side and the Lakers, and the basketball was hollow into the basket.
All the Lakers fans cheered, except for one person, and that was Luo Han, who now had no joy of victory on his face, only pain. He stepped on Green's foot as he landed and twisted it.
When the Lakers players saw Luo Han who fell to the ground, they didn't care about winning the game at all, and they all gathered towards Luo Han, and Kobe Bryant was the first to rush over. (To be continued.) )
