Maybe it's the belief that Klay Thompson can't dunk, but it's also a trust, isn't it......

Taking advantage of Sun Ce's walk to the free throw line, Coach Hollins replaced Battier and Gasol Jr., with the lineup of Sun Ce, Klay Thompson, and Jimmy Butler.

Paul George went down to rest first, and there was a little more than a quarter to go, and Paul George needed to retain his strength to play key moments.

With Sun Cejia hitting a free throw, the Grizzlies led by 10 points at 105-95 and began to enter positional battle offensive and defensive mode!

Not again!

Looking at the Grizzlies' substitution, Kobe Bryant had 10,000 alpacas running over in his heart.

The Grizzlies are a team that can't let them play a clear lead, and once the lead is about 10 points, the Grizzlies will immediately go into defensive mode when they get into a dead ball.

And now it's different from the last meeting before the All-Star weekend, half a season has passed, the Grizzlies are in better shape, and there is a Randolph on the bench who played 20 minutes tonight and scored 18 points! This guy has been at the top of the season as well!

The game continues, and the Lakers attack.

As soon as Gasol Jr. came up, and it was a big and four small lineup, the Lakers obviously felt the Grizzlies' defensive improvement.

Gasol Jr. defended from close range and to the basket, Sun Ce defended Leonard and switched mid-to-long-range defenses, Klay Thompson kept an eye on Kobe, Jimmy Butler defended Paul, and Battier followed Josh Smith.

Ci Shiping and Leonard have good opportunities, but at this moment, Ci Shiping can still trust, Leonard may be too nervous today, except for the three points that came up in the third quarter, no other shots were made.

At this time, it depends on Paul, although Leonard's long-range shooting threat plummeted tonight, but if he can receive the ball, he can always have a little threat, Paul is late with a fake pass, and he unexpectedly hangs in the air!

With Klay Thompson following closely, Bryant jumped smoothly with explosive power, and scored two points on the empty dunk on the bottom line.

8 points difference!

With one quarter and two minutes remaining, the Lakers had every chance to catch up.

But on the Grizzlies' side, Jimmy Butler has been playing so far in a season, and his mid-range shooting and cutting have been quite threatening, in addition to his unreliable strong burst on the offensive end, he has two strong points in the mid-range shot and cut-in, and he is already a high-quality 2D player, with Klay Thompson, who is infinitely threatening tonight, Battier with a three-point shooting rate of up to 40% in the bottom corner, and Sun Ce and Gasol Jr. to organize the offense, compared to last year when Randolph was not on the court, the Grizzlies' offense is much better.

Klay Thompson was targeted by Leonard, and the Lakers didn't replace Leonard because he was no worse than Klay Thompson without the ball.

Sun Ce's side is also very strict, Sun Ce passed the ball to Gasol Jr. who pulled to the high position, Gasol Jr. held the ball and turned to face the high position under the basket, Sun Ce used Jimmy Butler to block and dismantle without the ball, Gasol Jr. just the right pass to Sun Ce, Ci Shiping and Kobe Bryant immediately struck towards Sun Ce, Sun Ce passed back to Gasol Jr. who was one step outside the free throw line, and Gasol Jr. hit a mid-range shot!

Playing slowly, this attack took a full 15 seconds, but it went in!

The Lakers wanted to speed up, and in the transition between offense and defense, Paul quickly passed the ball to Kobe, who received the ball and failed to shake off Sun Ce, who was chasing the defense, and chose to step back and shoot a long-distance three-point shot with a big step across the three-point line...... Also enter!

However, the Grizzlies played a positional battle, Sun Ce sent the ball to Jimmy Butler, and Jimmy Butler slowly advanced, pressed the time, and handed it to Gasol Jr. who was mentioned in the high post after arriving in the frontcourt.

This time, after Sun Ce received Gasol Jr.'s pass, Ci Shiping didn't dare to take it back, Josh Smith did not change the defense and Jimmy Butler, who was blocked by Sun Ce, and Kobe Bryant pinched Sun Ce together, Sun Ce hung the basket on the right side, Jimmy Butler cut into the empty split dunk, and returned Kobe's previous split dunk!

Immediately after, Bryant made his third consecutive shot after Sun Ce's free throw...... Miss! Slowed down the pace of getting 50+.

Then Battier received a pass from Sun Ce and scored a layup, and veteran Ci Shiping also seized the opportunity and hit a shot from the free throw line.

After Ci Shiping made a shot this time, Sun Ce didn't give the ball to Jimmy Butler, and he received Klay Thompson's serve to advance to the frontcourt, and with 23 seconds left in the third quarter, the score was 111-102, and the Grizzlies still led by 9 points.

Sun Ce wants to press time to play the last attack of the third quarter, and he wants to guarantee the goal, if he can enter the final quarter with a lead of more than 10 points, the winning chance will be even greater.

There is a feature of the score in basketball, the difference between 4 points and 5 points will give people a big difference, and 9 points and 10 points will give people a bigger difference!

Or...... A wave?

Sun Ce came to the opponent's three-point line to defend Josh Smith, and suddenly had such an idea, he wanted to do it when he thought of it!

Sun Ce waited until there were 8 seconds left in the offensive time, and began to dribble back with his hip in a row, which was the same as when Kobe Bryant played the Trail Blazers in the Western Conference Finals more than 10 years ago!

Sun Ce's side was still retreating at the top arc, and theoretically the opponent should not be able to defend it, but he didn't expect that not only Josh Smith followed out, but even Leonard, who followed Klay Thompson to the left side of the free throw line, also saved!

The idol is Iverson's Leonard, who knows Kobe too well, as a native of Los Angeles, Leonard is very aware of some of Kobe's iconic goals, and when Sun Ce's inexplicable top arc is still back, Leonard immediately slammed towards Sun Ce.

Sun Ce was so painful, he hurriedly found someone to share the ball, after Klay Thompson's side was empty, Kobe Bryant made up for it as soon as possible, Josh Smith and Ci Shiping held the basket, betting that Gasol Jr. and Jimmy Butler couldn't shoot from the middle and long range, and wanted to control the difference within 10 points, otherwise their Lakers would be too passive in the fourth quarter.

Is this time to pass to Gasol Jr. and Jimmy Butler who have a chance, or wait for Klay Thompson to run?

Seeing that there were only 3 seconds left in the offensive time, Sun Ce didn't think much about it, and saw Klay Thompson rushing to the left 45-degree angle, and Sun Ce passed it directly.

Klay Thompson received the ball and couldn't get rid of Kobe's pursuit, but there was no time, Klay Thompson turned 180 degrees, and when he focused on defense at this moment, Kobe Bryant was still very good in defense and shot a three-point shot from his back......

The ball left Leonard's hand and reached its highest point just as the whistle blew at the end of the third quarter.

Subsequently, the scene erupted in crazy cheers!

Klay Thompson hit a three-point shot at the buzzer and scored 21 points in a single quarter!

At the same time, Sun Ce got the 23rd assist of the game, which is ...... 15th assist in a single quarter!
