Chapter 286: It's Good to Be Young
In the last 3.4 seconds, the Lakers trailed by 5 points!
And most crucially, they have one last pause left!
If this is put on others, it is to give up, but Kobe Bryant will not, in his dictionary, there is no such thing as giving up!
Therefore, it is decisive to pause, and Kobe Bryant is ready to do it one last time.
"He really doesn't admit defeat."
Han Miao was going to celebrate the end of the game with Hayward, but when she found out that the Lakers were going to take a timeout, she immediately understood.
Kobe Bryant doesn't want to lose yet!
"No chance, we still have two timeouts, they are the last one, this goal is three points, two points short."
Hayward said it didn't matter, after three free throws just now, he had actually sealed the win.
After the Lakers' short timeout, both sides returned to the court, and it was still Hayward and Han Miao who were guarding Kobe!
Kobe Bryant did not have any fear in the face of two people's defense, after he received the ball, he took a step back, and then in the last time, he didn't aim at it, and jumped up and shot directly!
That's right, it's 3.4 seconds, but Kobe Bryant still has to shoot!
"Huh~"
"Tick-"
Although the shot was made, the position of the shot was relatively far away, so after the ball was scored, the time was up.
122:120, the final score was frozen, and the Philadelphia 76ers, relying on Hayward's last three free throws, won the game with difficulty at home!
Kobe Bryant is a bit of a pity, the last ultra-long three points came a little late, otherwise, he could really complete the stunner in this game.
But then he was relieved, although he lost the game, but today, Kobe Bryant himself did not lose!
Han Miao and Hayward didn't pounce on the last ball to defend because they were afraid of being beaten four points, but seeing Kobe Bryant's last ultra-long three-point shot, to be honest, the two of them were in a cold sweat.
It's so dangerous, I almost lost!
"You two are doing well today, and you will continue to work hard in the future."
As a senior, Kobe Bryant came up to encourage Han Miao and Hayward, today Han Miao and Hayward both scored more than 20, and they did play the level that the team's double ace should be.
In particular, Han Miao's steal at the last moment and Hayward's free throws under pressure made people marvel at the performance of these two at critical moments.
"It's nice to be young, I see my former self in them."
These are the words of the interview after the competition, and the two of them can be said to be very high.
But think about this game, the 76ers can win is a fluke, the rest of the Lakers are in average shape today, they scored 120 points in the game, excluding Kobe's 65 points, and the others scored 55 points.
This is definitely not the normal level of the rest of the Lakers, so today is more lucky, if it weren't for Gasol being the first to be made by Whiteside to explode mentally, maybe the 76ers really won't be able to win.
That's fate!
Stevens also said that the team was lucky to win today, the defending champions were very strong, and if it weren't for the bad form of the rest of the team, their own team would have lost today.
For Han Miao's break and Hayward's free throw at the last moment, Stevens gave high praise.
He said that when it mattered most, the leaders of the team could step up, and that was something he would love to see.
What's more, Hayward was able to make the last three free throws after being beaten by Kobe Bryant as "3+1" at a critical moment today, which is really commendable.
"Big hearts, both of them have big hearts, and they're both very hungry to win, and I'm glad I have two of them."
It's almost the end of the season, Stevens is not hiding anymore, the two newcomers under Lao Tzu are very good, and I don't pretend to be a showdown.
Of course, Han Miao and Hayward are relatively low-key, they are still rookies after all, and it is not good to say that they are too good at this time, and they are easy to be beaten.
But in this battle, Kobe Bryant 60+ failed to win, and it did let everyone see the strength of the young Philadelphia 76ers, which is indeed very strong, although it has been said that the West is strong and the East is weak for so many years, but this year the Philadelphia 76ers are definitely capable of disrupting the situation in the East!
Young people always have an endless amount of energy, and they will be stronger in the playoffs!
After playing the Lakers, the 76ers have the last 14 games left, and they are still holding the third place in the East, and they don't give face to the Heat who established the Big Three!
The Heat is fourth, the Celtics are fifth, if they can't turn over the 76ers next, then the Heat, who are aiming to win the championship this season, may have to fight a tough battle in the first round!
"Lads! Hold on to third place in the East! ”
This is Coach Stevens' last advice, resolutely not to give the Heat good fruit to eat!
And the fifth-place Celtic is also silently accumulating energy, if it weren't for the physical strength of the veterans, maybe the Celtics are planning to grab the fourth!
"Our goal? Let's fight for two. ”
When Han Miao was asked about his next target, he replied like this.
"Have you ever considered stealing the first place for the Bulls?"
"Well, this season is not very hopeful, of course, next season our 76ers also hope to get a better position, is likely to challenge the first place in the East."
Well, the season isn't over yet, and you're thinking about next season.
However, there is no problem for Han Miao to say this, after all, this can be explained as taking precautions and being forward-looking, and it is the dream of young people, and dreams need to be respected.
At present, the regular season is in the final stage, and on the Eastern side, the Bulls are still first, they are 3 wins ahead of the second-place Magic, the Bulls still have 13 games, the Magic still have 14 games, and theoretically, the Magic still have hope to surpass the Bulls.
The 76ers, who are third in the East, are two wins behind the Magic, and they also have 14 games to play, and theoretically, the 76ers are also very likely to overtake the Magic.
Of course, the Heat, who are fourth in the East, are the most likely to make a comeback, losing 1.5 games to the 76ers while still having 13 games to play.
The fifth-placed Celtics have 12 games remaining, losing to the Heat by 2.5 wins.
I won't say much about the latter, it's almost this gap, so it can be seen that the gap between the first place in the east and the fifth place in the east this year is very large, and they are almost double digits.
Moreover, the Bulls, Magic, and 76ers all have a characteristic, that is, the team is very young, the core is all young people, and the average age of the team is not very old, and the entire East has unknowingly become a world of young people!
Well...... It's good to be young!
Stevens looked at the teams that were shooting below fifth in the East, with the Hawks, the Pacers, the Knicks, and the Bobcats and Pistons behind them also had a chance.
These opponents, Stevens told the truth, none of them were afraid, it seems that this year's Philadelphia 76ers, the first round of breakthrough is not a big problem.
As long as you don't fall to fourth to play Celtic, you'll be fine.
"Coach, do you want the second?"
Han Miao asked the coach while stroking the iron.
"Do you have faith?" Stevens asked rhetorically.
"Anyway, now the second and third are almost ......," Han Miao thought for a while, "Coach, do you still want us to take the first place?" ”
"Young man......" Stevens smiled, "don't you want to be amazed?" Win the first place? ”
Han Miao: ...... Coach, you're inflated......
