1398. Narrowly Won? It's a flat push! (4th Update)
The Grizzlies originally liked to slowly grind and fight with each other, slowly wearing out the opponent's style of play.
The players of the two teams returned to the court, and the Lakers tried to calm down and play every ball well, but Paul couldn't calm down anymore, and after receiving the ball in the front court, he stepped back and shot, trying to score three points to narrow the difference.
Paul managed to take advantage of the step-back step to get rid of Randolph's switch, but the shot missed!
Gasol Jr. got the defensive rebound and passed it to Sun Ce, Sun Ce received the ball and advanced, the opponent's anxious mentality, Sun Ce already felt it, and the next goal had to be scored!
In the first three games of the Western Finals, Randolph averaged 3.6 assists per game, more than Gasol Jr.'s average of 3 assists per game, but the average number of turnovers per game was 3, and the effect of passing was very good;
Sun Ce analyzed, played a tactical gesture, handed the ball to Gasol Jr. who pulled a step outside the free throw line, Sun Ce himself took Leonard to cut inside, Paul George ran in from the right sideline to help Sun Ce block Leonard when Sun Ce cut in, and Kobe Bryant switched to Sun Ce.
Paul George immediately ran towards the top arc after blocking people, and Gasol Jr.'s action of dribbling to the right side made the Lakers think that Gasol Jr. wanted to pass the ball to Paul George and block Leonard, so Paul, who was one step inside the three-point line at a 45-degree angle on the left, immediately sandwiched Gasol Jr.'s line, blocking Gasol Jr.'s pass to the left 45-degree angle and the lineline, and at the same time creating pressure on Gasol Jr.'s cross to the top arc.
The Lakers' defense is very tacit and the execution is also very good, but Gasol Jr. passed to Sun Ce, who was closely followed by Kobe and Josh Smith was also ready to attack the past!
Sun Ce received the ball, and he who had seen Paul move immediately to the left sideline, at which time Paul just caught the top arc, and Klay Thompson moved to the left to the left 45-degree corner sideline, receiving the ball and shooting a three-point shot......
Sun Ce and Randolph immediately prepared to rush, while Gasol Jr. and Paul George began to retreat and limit the opponent's fast attack.
But this time Klay Thompson made his teammates' efforts useless! After a quick shot, he immediately knew that the ball could go in, and when he landed, he folded his hands and bowed slightly when he landed, and his celebration was accompanied by the ball hollow into the basket!
An important goal, Klay Thompson steady!
7 points difference!
This time, Klay Thompson's three-point shot was very crucial, directly hitting the opponent's morale to the lowest.
Immediately after Kobe Bryant's mid-range shot, he wanted to help the team regain his confidence, and when the Grizzlies attacked, Sun Ce missed a three-point shot against Josh Smith, but Randolph beat Jordan Hill to grab an offensive rebound and score two points on the second offense, raising his personal score to 20 points!
It's still a 7-point difference, and Kobe Bryant wanted to score a three-pointer, but this time he missed, Sun Ce accepted the defensive rebound, and in the process of advancing to the frontcourt, Sun Ce saw Klay Thompson's early run and borrowed the opportunity from Paul George's blocking, and immediately passed over.
Klay Thompson's early run is for this, he thinks Sun Ce should be able to understand, and Sun Ce really understands, receiving the ball and making another three-point shot......
Again!
The Lakers called a timeout and came back, and the Grizzlies scored 8 points in a row with three consecutive hits, playing a wave of 8-2, and the score was completed, leading by 10 points!
The fans went crazy!
The Lakers didn't play well? No, just like the Grizzlies played well at the beginning or were pulled apart by the Lakers, Kobe Bryant played very well, and the Lakers did a very good job in offense and defense.
However, the Grizzlies are just going to score! The Lakers have been shooting 5-of-9 from the fourth quarter to now, with a 55 percent shooting rate, but the Grizzlies, relying on offensive rebounding and better shooting percentage, shot 7 of 12 and played a wave!
Just like what Yu Jia, the commentator of the imperial court station, said under the not-so-happy expression of the guest Zhang Weiping - the Grizzlies played the momentum of pushing the Lakers!
With 5 minutes and 21 seconds left in the game, the Lakers called a timeout!
Originally, the old Bickerstaff saw that the team's offense had been playing okay, the pace of the game was not fast, but the success rate was high, so he didn't call a timeout when the Grizzlies scored two goals in a row, but what the old Bickerstaff didn't expect was to play the Grizzlies, and the shooting rate of more than fifty percent was not enough!
After this 3-of-4 wave, the Grizzlies went from shooting less than 50 percent from 4-of-9 to 58 percent!
The Lakers have made 1-of-2 shooting in the last three rounds, followed by their possession, but the Grizzlies have scored in all three rounds......
Can't play this game!
In this case, you can't help but fight, if you don't fight, you really have no chance, 1-3 behind the Grizzlies, it's impossible to turn the tables!
Paul, Kobe, J.R. Smith, Jamison, Josh Smith, and the elder Bickerstaff fielded a lineup that threw threes desperately.
But, back from the timeout, the Lakers saw a lineup of Son Ce, Klay Thompson, Paul George, Battier, and Larry Sanders......
The double bear went straight down! A combination of restrained mini-lineups comes in handy!
This time, it was little Bickerstaff who judged that his father would most likely fight for his life, and he would send a hurricane lineup regardless of it, so it was recommended to deploy it in a targeted manner.
Prediction succeeded!
In the frantic cheers of the fans at the scene, the Grizzlies held down the rhythm steadily, defended stubbornly, and grinded to the death!
Sun Ce's co-defense, Klay Thompson's pursuit of Kobe, Battier's experienced defensive command and defensive versatility that can be reversed against Jamison and Josh Smith, Paul George and Larry Sanders......
It can't be put to death, but with a 10-point lead, the Grizzlies are trying their best to defend it! Although the opponent scored 13 points in 5 and a half minutes, the Grizzlies also scored 8 points, and in the face of the Lakers' lineup, and it was a crazy shot, Kobe Bryant and JR Smith were still very good, the Grizzlies did a very good job.
With Kobe Bryant's last shot missed, the final whistle blew, and after a wave of crazy 8-13 defense, the Grizzlies defeated the Lakers!
Looking at the 3-1 score on the big screen, watching the hilarious celebration on the opposite side after the whistle blew, Kobe Bryant looked up at the big screen and didn't know what he was thinking.
And Paul, the strong but not solid confidence brought by the last win completely collapsed at this moment!
There's really no way to play this place in the west!
