Chapter 374: I'd rather 30 shots 0 out than 9 shots 0 out of 0
Kobe Bryant was stunned.
If you want to say that this is the cooperation of Sun Hao and O'Neill, this is a bit incredible.
But if you want to say no, the tacit understanding between the two is too exaggerated!
I have been running with you for 8 years, might as well be a new love for a month?
Just when Kobe Bryant was stunned, Ariza quickly pounced and got the ball, and he threw the ball to Sun Hao as soon as possible.
Switching offense and defense, the Lakers played a fast break, and Finley scored a heavy dunk after receiving a pass from Sun Hao after a long-distance run.
14 to 22!
The difference in points has been stretched to 8 points again!
The Dallas fans at the scene were depressed, very depressed!
After the Lakers started to pull the score away once, they couldn't get over it.
O'Neal wasn't in particularly good shape tonight, after all, he had just returned from injury.
But unlike the start of the season, there is more cooperation between him and Sun Hao!
Originally, the two of them fought their own games, and the weak side of the Mavericks could still go up.
But as soon as these two people cooperate, with their personal ability, no matter which one you pack, it is equivalent to giving points to the other!
You don't wrap up, two people block and take the ball after dismantling it, it's a misplaced hit.
Think about the scene that would have occurred in the last century if Jordan and Olajuwon were on the same team, and the two played blocking and dismantling!
Sun Hao and O'Neill are the expanded version of the offensive range!
And one more thing, O'Neal's return has taken the Lakers' defense to the next level.
In addition to the fact that the defense cannot be returned to such as the switch between offense and defense, during the positional battle, the Lakers' interior defensive intensity has obviously increased!
In addition, Ariza's defensive performance after being mentioned as a starter made up for the team's defensive ability on the outside.
Compared with the beginning of the season, the Lakers at this time are not first-class defensively, but they are already a qualified team defensively!
In the face of such a Lakers team, it is not so easy for the Mavericks to chase points when they are disadvantaged.
At halftime, the Lakers led the Mavericks by 13 points, 56-43.
Sun Hao and O'Neal scored 20 points, 6 assists and 18 points and 8 boards in the half, respectively.
While the others were in average condition, the "Instant Kill Combo" exerted their due power.
On the other hand, on the Mavericks' side, Kobe Bryant was on the first spot and then iron, shooting 5 of 15 in the half and scoring 13 points from the free throw line.
"Kenny, you have to believe Michael's current vision, he's not the same person he used to be."
Looking at the half-time situation, Barkley said proudly in the commentary box.
At this time, he showed his ability to explain, and when there were guests, he had to do his best to make the guests have a sense of participation.
"Charles, when did you learn to pat Michael's ass, you've never done that before."
Smith couldn't help but roll his eyes.
Jordan laughed when he heard this.
He couldn't even resist smoking a cigar now.
Of course, he also likes Sun Hao more.
Because it is not only visible, Sun Hao has invisibly added a lot of invisible pretending capital to him.
For him, that's more useful than how much money he makes.
Coming back in the second half, the Mavericks attacked first.
As soon as Kobe Bryant came up, he hit Finley and Ariza angrily.
Tonight's Milanese blacksmith shop is doing brisk business.
Even the Mavericks' style of play and the first half didn't seem to change much.
There was a stirring at the scene.
It's an adrenaline-pumping thing to watch Kobe Bryant score more than a dozen, but watching the iron keep hitting is a kind of torture.
The scene showed the camera to the head coach of the Mavericks, Avery A. Johnson, the latter sat there and didn't do anything.
There are certain problems with Johnson's coaching, but it is obviously not bad enough to say that there is no problem.
But this is also a reflection of the problems that exist with the Mavericks.
Just like when Nelson Jr. and Sun Hao complained about the bitter water, Kobe Bryant's current desire to attack is too strong, so strong that Cuban is a little unhappy.
But whether it's Nelson Jr. or Johnson, it's hard to say tough to get Kobe Bryant to make changes.
Because Kobe Bryant is a major change for the Mavericks in the summer, if he ends up falling out with Kobe, it will be tantamount to slapping himself in the face.
In particular, this decision was made by Kuban.
So, they can't do anything and nothing at this stage except indulge Kobe.
Bryant, who covered Finley's shot off the court in defense.
Although he doesn't feel good on the offensive end, you have to be sure of his ability and attitude.
The Lakers' sideline ball, Sun Hao took the ball and took advantage of O'Neal's blocking and dismantling to make another outside three-point shot.
Bell didn't know how many times he hit the wall, and no matter how flexible he was, he still couldn't match the size of O'Neill's body.
"Huh!"
Sun Hao's first three-point shot when he came back in the second half went in!
43 to 59!
The difference has come to 16 points!
The NBA's 15-point hurdle has passed!
The scene was agitated.
This is the Sun Hao they once had!
They couldn't help but lament how stupid the team's summer trade was.
Kobe Bryant is good, but Sun Hao is obviously more fragrant!
Fisher then advanced forward with the ball, and Nowitzki took the initiative in the low post at this time, and then reached for the ball to play alone.
Considering the overall situation of the team, from the beginning of the season to the present, as long as Kobe Bryant wants to attack him, he will cooperate.
But Kobe Bryant's hand was too cold tonight, and he knew that if it continued like this, the fourth quarter might directly become garbage time.
Fisher gave the ball in.
Nowitzki hit Malone with his back, and the tongue-sticking golden rooster after turning around leaned back .gif independently.
"Huh!"
Although there weren't many shots tonight, Nowitzki wasn't in bad shape!
And with the independent development of the golden rooster, he no longer has to be deflated when he meets Ma Long like before.
What's more, now he is facing Ma Long, who is already in the last season.
The goal brought back the momentum of the National Route Center Arena.
After defending against a wave of Lakers offense, Nowitzki ran out of position, misplaced Ariza, and then shot from mid-range to catch the ball.
"Huh!"
The ball flew past Ariza's defense to the basket and then hollowed into the net!
And that's not the end of it.
After O'Neal scored a strong shot inside, it was Nowitzki again, who picked up the ball and shook Finley and burst into the free throw line to shoot back.
"Huh!"
The basketball is like being imitated, and it is hollow into the net again.
For a moment, Sun Hao saw the figure of the insoluble German tank in 2011 in his memory.
The scene erupted in cheers.
Nowitzki scored 6 points in a row!
After the goal, Nowitzki shook his fist and let out a cathartic roar.
For the switchback run that has been done almost every night this season, and also for the team's ups and downs, Sun Hao and O'Neal.
Nowitzki is an emotional person.
Sun Hao and O'Neal "showed their affection" on the court, which stimulated Kobe Bryant, and of course it will stimulate him.
You must know that when he and Sun Hao were together, the blocking and dismantling of the two was more tacit and lethal than this.
And it was also by this block that they helped Dallas win the first championship in team history!
The championship trophy in the showroom, the group photo, including the championship flag hanging overhead, all seem to be yesterday!
But now, the Yiren are still there, just going to someone else's arms!
He can't get over it in his heart!
The entire third quarter became Nowitzki's solo performance time.
He scored 17 points in the quarter!
Driven by him, at the end of the third quarter, the Mavericks chased the score to 74-81!
In fact, after Sun Hao developed the Golden Rooster Independence for Nowitzki in advance, Nowitzki's personal strength has advanced to the peak.
The decline in his statistics this season is not really because his strength has become weaker than before, but because it is purely a matter of ball possession as Nelson Jr. said when he complained.
So when Nowitzki showed his ability in this quarter, the Dallas fans in the stadium were extremely excited.
The regular season MVP two years ago, the Silver Horn King, he's back!
And this situation continued to play out until the final quarter.
Nowitzki almost single-handedly helped the Mavericks keep the score tight.
Coupled with Johnson's start of slashing tactics, the score of the two teams shrank at a rate visible to the naked eye.
In the minute before the end, Nowitzki hit a difficult three-point shot from the back, and even helped the Mavericks tie the score!
Nowitzki turned on the switch of the gods!
He has already scored 30 points in the second half!
Moreover, O'Neal missed another two free throws after being fouled!
The Mavericks have ushered in an opportunity to overtake!
'We have to respect Dirk, he's a great player.'
Such a performance made Barkley in the commentary seat can't help but sigh.
Speaking of which, when he was a teammate with Sun Hao, he was also a teammate with Nowitzki.
The Mavericks' final attack.
Nowitzki couldn't catch the ball with an off-ball bag, and Bryant opted for an individual attack.
This is a round that decides the outcome of the game.
Kobe Bryant's beautiful feint broke past Finley, and after hitting the penalty area, he met O'Neal's shot again.
Only this time, he didn't dodge before making a move, and he took a sturdy attack from O'Neill!
After showing off his affection all night, O'Neill finally gave his ex-girlfriend a slap!
The audience was in an uproar.
And Sun Hao grabbed the ball after being risked, and the chance to kill was from the Mavericks to the Lakers!
Lakers, no timeout!
Phil Jackson's coaching style!
After Sun Hao controlled the ball, he got up and ran towards the frontcourt.
Bell showed the strength of the first defense, and the top defense was in place.
But Sun Hao chose to stop and chase three points one meter away from the three-point line in the front court!
This choice is too much of a test of personal ability, and Bell has no time to interfere, so he can only watch Sun Hao make a move.
Soon after the ball was shot, the red light on the sidelines also lit up.
The fans at the scene felt their hearts hang in their throats.
Because the person who shot was Sun Hao, they had already witnessed many scenes of lore matches.
The only difference is that Sun Hao used to wear the Mavericks team, but now Sun Hao is wearing a Lakers jersey!
"Huh!"
A crunch echoed through the arena!
The final result is the same as the fans have seen before!
Kobe Bryant didn't seize the opportunity, but Sun Hao seized it!
The Lakers, 103-100, beat the Mavericks!
Nowitzki's expression was helpless!
The pain of working hard all night only to lose in the last round.
Maybe you only know if you have experienced it.
In fact, it is not that he has never encountered such a score and such a moment before.
It's just that the team had Sun Hao at that time, and Sun Hao could always help the team win the game at critical moments.
But now, he can only watch Kobe Bryant hit the iron and be offended.
He collected his mood and walked over to Kobe Bryant's side to comfort him.
"We just lost one regular-season game, and we've won them before."
Although he was not in a good mood, he still had to comfort others.
Nowitzki is still the same nowitzki who was empathetic when he was with Sun Hao.
On the other side of the court, O'Neal and the rest of the Lakers team were cheering around Sun Hao!
Nowitzki's sudden outburst almost staged a shocking reversal, but Sun Hao's performance on key shots saved the Lakers.
Also saved O'Neill.
He really needs this win!
At the press conference after the game, O'Neill blew Sun Hao into the sky.
"Of all the players I've worked with, Son is the most killer and he makes me feel like I'm playing with Michael."
"And I don't have to watch my partner hit the iron like I used to, and Sun's key ball ability was proven in Dallas."
Of course, what should be black still has to be black.
Sun Hao smiled helplessly and shook his head.
History is happening, and during this period, O'Neal and Kobe Bryant have been blatantly and unreservedly black.
'Shaq's block at the key moment helped us and I think that's why Phil insisted on keeping him on the court.
"Of course, his impact on the game is not just about that block, he got 33 points, 16 rebounds and 5 blocks in the first game of his comeback, this is the big shark."
Sun Hao, of course, also came to a wave of business blowing.
Sun Hao's words also caused O'Neill to laugh heartily.
This comfortable day, he couldn't imagine in the past few years!
Compared with the atmosphere of the Lakers blowing each other after the game, the Mavericks' subsequent press conference was a bit dull.
Especially Kobe Bryant, he felt cold tonight, only 9 of 30 shots, and there were 9 consecutive misses in the game, and he scored 24 points on free throws.
Such a performance is clearly a failure.
Nowitzki, I wanted to say before the end that this game was not Kobe Bryant's responsibility alone, they were going to play better or something.
But what Bryant said to reporters made him autistic in an instant.
"What do you think was the reason for the team to lose tonight?"
"It's my problem, I missed too many shots that I should have made, including the layup at the end, and there's no doubt that it's my responsibility to lose."
Kobe Bryant is not a cowardly person, and he is not afraid and willing to admit such responsibility.
"Then when you notice that you don't feel good, should you stop shooting and create more opportunities for your teammates?"
The reporter then asked.
"No, that's not my style, I'd rather shoot 0 out of 30 than 0 out of 9, you're afraid to shoot, you won't have a chance to score."
Kobe Bryant's famous scene.
It's about the scorer's determination, and in some ways, it's not wrong.
But it would be a mistake to say something like that after such a loss, especially when Nowitzki feels so good.
Because there is another meaning of this sentence, that is, the whole team will accompany you until you find your feeling?
It was obvious that Nowitzki's face had become very unsightly.
He knew that if it was Sun Hao, he would not say such a thing anyway.
