Chapter 232: The Meaning of This Game (Ask for Subscription!) Ask for a commuter pass! )

Kobe Bryant forced Bale, Bale's defense was in place, and Nowitzki also helped defend inside, and Kobe Bryant was forced to stop the ball.

O'Neill saw it and reached for the ball inside.

If this is according to the cooperation of the two in the first three quarters, Kobe Bryant hoisted the ball in, and O'Neal turned around with a high probability of a violent dunk.

However, Kobe Bryant didn't give it, and he turned and leaned back in the face of the two-man defense to the bottom line.

It's a very difficult ball.

"Huh!"

But Kobe Bryant still threw the ball in!

The Staples Center erupted in cheers.

Super individual offensive ability!

After the goal, Kobe Bryant glanced at Bell coldly, and then looked at Sun Hao.

That look like it said, look, I'm already the king of Los Angeles, and I'm playing the key balls.

Sun Hao smiled, and then gave Kobe Bryant a thumbs up.

"Kobe Bryant really dares, and he can really get in."

Zhang Weiping also sighed in the broadcast seat.

However, as soon as he finished sighing here, Sun Hao scored another three points by blocking and dismantling the outside line.

"Hey! But look at this, this must still be our little grandson! ”

Zhang Weiping's words immediately changed.

Kobe Bryant went up front and continued to attack.

After the last goal, the tree in his heart grew a little more.

Nowitzki also continued to help defend, and Kobe Bryant also continued to take shots in the middle.

"Phew!"

It's a pity that this time the basketball smashed out of the frame.

Lafrentz struggled to defend the defensive rebound.

The Mavericks played defensive counterattacks, and the Lakers were a little inactive in retreating.

Nowitzki followed up on the fast break and received a pass from Nash, scored and caused Kobe Bryant's pulling foul!

Critical 2+1!

He adjusted his breathing and hit the penalty against the interference!

Nowitzki, who scored the penalty, reached out and punched, quite excited.

102 to 106!

The Mavericks took a crucial four-point lead.

Phil Jackson reached out and called a timeout.

There was a stirring at the scene.

It was clear from the last few rounds that the stalemate was starting to tilt in the Mavericks' favor.

That's the difference between Kobe Bryant and O'Neal's impact on the game.

If the ball in front of him was dunked in by O'Neal, not to mention the Lakers' morale, Nowitzki would not dare to save again.

After all, Lafrenz alone can't stop O'Neal under the basket.

But Kobe Bryant is trapped by a tree and lost in his own country.

Phil Jackson pulled Kobe Bryant and said a lot.

After the timeout, the Lakers attacked the frontcourt again, and Kobe Bryant ...... Gave the ball to O'Neill.

If the Lakers can't even influence Kobe's thoughts, and there's one person left who can, it's Phil Jackson.

And it turned out that he did.

O'Neal forced the basket, knocked away Nowitzki, and hung Lafrenz to smash the ball into the basket.

The referee also followed the whistle, and O'Neill returned a 2+1!

This way of attacking, no one!

Sun Hao looked helpless.

This year, O'Neal has seen fewer stats and injuries, but his offensive dominance has become stronger.

Or it can be described in that sentence.

O'Neal finally realized that he didn't have to rely on skill to dominate the basket on the offensive end.

However, O'Neal's penalty was still a steady miss!

104 to 106!

There is one minute left in the game!

The fans in the stadium had all stood up, and the game had a playoff flavor.

"If two teams meet in the playoffs, it's going to be a great series."

Zhang Weiping sighed when he saw this.

Su Qun on the side nodded.

The Kings, Lakers, Mavericks, and Spurs are basically the first echelon in the West this season, and these four teams are paired in pairs, no matter which group they are, it will be exciting.

The Mavericks attacked the frontcourt again, Kobe Bryant, and began to defend Sun Hao.

Lafrenz didn't have a chance with consecutive pick-and-rolls.

Kobe Bryant's single defense ability is really a bit strong.

In the end, Sun Hao and Kobe Bryant were one-on-one, Kobe Bryant kept forcing Sun Hao to forget about the left side, and kept forcing him to shoot with a non-shooter.

Sun Hao suddenly felt that he was not the only one who was playing with the heart.

Before the game, Kobe Bryant asked him to play ultra-long three-pointers, to test whether he could shoot with both left and right hands!

Sun Hao's final shot was a bit difficult, and the basketball also smashed out of the frame.

O'Neal grabbed a defensive rebound.

The Lakers attacked the frontcourt, O'Neal hit hard, and in the shouts of Nelson Sr., Lafrentz fouled O'Neal directly.

It was Lafrentz's sixth personal foul and was knocked off the court by O'Neal.

Bradley comes on for Lafrenz and O'Neal goes to the free throw line.

There was silence at the scene, and it was time to see O'Neal's performance at the free throw line.

O'Neill also looked a little nervous.

If there's one thing in the world that makes him nervous, it's free throws.

He took a couple of deep breaths in a row before making free throws.

The first penalty, hollow into the net!

The scene erupted in cheers.

O'Neill also exhaled.

On the second free throw, the ball went in after a knock on the basket!

O'Neal, both free throws!

O'Neal said before that he was bad at making free throws, but he always scored key free throws, and now it doesn't seem to be exactly bragging!

106 flat!

Old Nelson called a timeout!

Shark slashing tactics, it won't work for O'Neill tonight!

O'Neill himself was also high, and when he left the game, he supported his hip with his left hand, touched the back of his head with his right hand, and then twisted his body.

The whistle was incessant.

O'Neill, a big living treasure, is really loved.

"Sun Hao wants to kill with three points."

Zhang Weiping spoke directly in the broadcast seat.

The pause came back with only 28 seconds left.

Sun Hao pressed the time in the front court and pressed until the last 8 seconds of the offensive time to attack.

Old Nelson handed over the key ball to Sun Hao to deal with.

Lafrenz pulled out to block the pick-and-roll, but Bryant still bypassed.

Sun Hao's crotch after the final fake burst stepped back for three points.

Bryant still followed.

It's a textbook set of offense and defense.

Sun Hao finally faced Kobe's difficult three points, and he leaned back slightly.

But even with such a difficult shot, Sun Hao's eyes were full of confidence.

Because unlike the previous ball, this ball is a coherent shooting action.

Both of them drifted in the air, their eyes facing each other, and time seemed to freeze for a moment.

Then Sun Hao threw the ball against Kobe.

Everyone's eyes were drawn to the spinning basketball.

On one side of the court, Cuban's hands were already clenched into fists.

"Huh!"

There was a crunch.

"Zhang Weiping's Law" reappeared, Sun Hao's lore goal was scored!

106 to 109!

The scene was in an uproar.

The Mavericks' bench was even more boiling.

However, with 2.1 seconds left in the race, the race was not over yet.

Phil Jackson called a timeout!

After the timeout, as soon as the Lakers sent the ball in the frontcourt, O'Neal was fouled!

Old Nelson's choice is the same as last year!

And this choice, in fact, will involve a never-ending wave of discussion.

In history, this kind of lead by 3 points took the initiative to foul, successful, so that the opponent lost the opportunity to equalize the three-point game, and there were also overturned, such as the Houston team.

Once it rolls over, the coach is definitely sprayed comparable to 250.

Of course, there are also those who lead by 3 points without fouling and are equalized by opponents, the most classic is Rose's three-point tie during the Bulls period, and the overtime reversal.

Similarly, the coach on the opposite side was definitely sprayed with 250 after the game.

Either way, winning or losing will be two completely different situations.

But there's nothing wrong with Nelson Sr.'s choice.

Despite hitting both of his first two shots, O'Neal's overall free-throw percentage was low.

And because of lack of time, after the Lakers were fouled and sent to the free throw line, there was only one way to win.

Regardless of whether the first penalty is missed or not, the second penalty must be deliberately missed, depending on the situation, to tie or kill the game.

O'Neal's first penalty.

The scene was silent, and the fans were nervous and speechless at this time.

O'Neill's punishment was a little heavier, and this technique was like letting him stir-fry in a small pot, which was really embarrassing for him.

However, the ball rolled out after a few bounces on the basket.

A lucky free throw, and the Lakers are still behind by 2 points!

Next, O'Neal must miss a free throw, and the Lakers will either equalize or seek a stunner.

Because the Lakers didn't take a timeout, Phil Jackson once again showed his unique whistle command.

A whistle that no one else understands at all, but the Lakers on-court players already know it.

O'Neal's second penalty.

A deliberate penalty that was clearly not fouled.

Historically, Yao Ming has had similar successful operations with the Houston team.

In terms of hand work, O'Neill and Yao Ming both belong to the first gear among the big guys.

O'Neal grabbed the rebound, but instead of hitting the rim directly, he threw the ball to Kobe Bryant on the left.

Bale pounced as soon as possible, and Sun Hao also helped defend like Kobe Bryant did before, not giving him a chance to shoot on the side of the shooter.

Bryant was forced to turn around from beyond the three-point line, and time didn't allow him to make a full shot.

He turned around and took the ball in his left hand and threw it directly outside the three-point line.

The ball was shot, and the red light on the sidelines also lit up.

It's a desperate looking shot.

However, after watching the familiar shots, Sun Hao already had a bad premonition.

"Huh!"

And in the end, that bad premonition was fulfilled.

Kobe Bryant, left-handed one-handed three-point completion of the lore!

Zhang Weiping's law is still valid, but this time Kobe Bryant completed the counter-lore.

The final score was fixed at 110-109.

Lakers O'Neal chipped in 35 points, 21 rebounds and 3 blocks, and Kobe Bryant had 26 points, 6 rebounds and 9 assists.

Mavericks Sun Hao had 30 points and 6 assists, Nowitzki had 26 points and 9 boards, Finley had 19 points, and Wang Zhizhi had 8 points and 4 boards.

The Lakers players have rushed to the court, including many fans on the sidelines.

Bryant was cheering with his hands in the air, and O'Neal was the first to go up and hug him.

The OK combo played a classic match that went down in history.

The scene was also replaying the ball just now, and when Kobe Bryant threw the ball with his left hand, Cuban was already smiling and shaking his head on the sidelines.

It couldn't have been a second time, but it did leave the opponent speechless.

Sun Hao exhaled a long breath.

While winning and losing is a common thing, the regular season is not enough to say anything.

However, in this game, Sun Hao learned a lot from Kobe.

Or to put it another way, it also gave him a new training profile.

He's going to have to practice his left hand.

Only by opening the bow with the left and right hands can you take your offensive threat to the next level.

After the game. The two teams give a final handshake.

"You played very, very well, we were just a little bit lucky."

O'Neill is really good at being a person.

He completely dominated the interior in this game, but he could still say things like that.

Perhaps it will only be a few years later that Bryant will realize that being able to be teammates with O'Neal is the luckiest thing of his career.

At the post-game press conference, Nelson Sr. took the initiative to take responsibility.

"It was my choice to make the team lose."

Just like the analysis in the game, as long as you lose, you have to take the blame for how you choose.

"It's a big game for us, we showed that we have what it takes to compete for the championship, but we still have a lot of room for improvement."

However, Sun Hao's words are the best summary.

They said before the game whether they have the strength to chase the championship, not that they have to win the game.

Because they have been back and forth with the Lakers on the court.

Even if it weren't for Kobe's incredible left-handed three-pointer in the end, the victory would have belonged to the Mavericks.

So, they have the strength to play with the Lakers.

And, as with the previous loss to the Celtics, it will make them play harder in the later games.

After all, we haven't passed half of the regular season yet, and staying mindset is a very important part of the season.

After the press conference, Sun Hao and Nowitzki returned to the locker room.

Despite the loss, the Mavericks players all looked to be in good shape.

"My fault is that I didn't guard him."

Bell also took the initiative to take responsibility.

"Don't blame yourself, he won't shoot a second shot like that, you've defended well."

Easley, as the leader of the locker room, also went over to comfort Bale.

Looking at the scene in front of him, Sun Hao felt that this loss also made the Mavericks more united in another way.

Of course, this is at the team level.

After finishing the press conference, the elder Nelson was called into the office by Cuban.

The two men chatted about the details of the game and some of the changes the team needed.

"We need a big guy, a big guy who can fight Shaq."

In this game, although the joint defense has been used, but in the face of O'Neal after weight gain, the Mavericks' interior line was still blown up.

Nelson Sr. also agreed with Cuban this time.

In the offseason, the Mavericks were all aiming for revenge on the Spurs.

But under the new rules, they found that the results exceeded their expectations.

Revenge on the Spurs is more than just their goal, they want a championship.

As Sun Hao said at the press conference, although they lost this game, they have proved that they have that strength.

However, it is still far from safe.

In this game, Wang Zhizhi was killed, Sun Hao felt hot, and the dual-core also performed well, and even the trees planted by Sun Hao worked, but the Mavericks still didn't win it in the end.

And it's just the regular season, and by the playoffs, the Lakers are only going to get stronger.

So the Mavericks have to be reinforced, and it's a targeted reinforce.

A big man who can carry O'Neill is definitely the first choice.

In fact, the old Nelson also tried to use rookie Collins in the game, but it didn't work much.

This big man, in addition to tonnage, has to have some experience.

This kind of big guy is a scarce commodity in the Union. Diagram of the Avenue of the Heavens
