Before 4 minutes of the first quarter, Little K made a substitution.

It can be seen how bad the Bucks are in this game!

"There is no problem with Yi's shooting selection, he has been playing like this all season, and I don't believe he lacks training, seriously, Yi should be the hardest working player except for Kobe Bryant's paranoia! But he's not feeling good so far tonight, and all I can say is that God is playing tricks on him. ”

"However, because of this, I believe that Yi Jianlian will definitely be able to regain his touch in this game, but during this period of his struggle, the other players of the Bucks team must help him withstand the pressure!"

"It's a good choice to replace Crawford on the court, and in terms of scoring explosiveness alone, except for Yi on the Bucks, it has to be him! Although the first quarter of the 4 minutes has not yet arrived, I very much agree with Xiao K's substitution, the more critical the game, the more you can't coach according to common sense, and you must try to solve the problem immediately! ”

K's approach was supported by ESPN's commentator Bill Wharton.

Crawford came on and was replaced by Courtney Lee.

The Bucks took out the long-lost three-point tactic.

So far, Yi Jianlian, who has made three zeros, also consciously ran to the bottom line after Crawford came on the court, opening up space for Crawford's singles.

It's just that he is not in good shape today, and he can no longer attract most of the Lakers' defensive attention as before, and only Artest is attracted to follow him alone.

Fortunately, this is enough for Crawford.

The first ball that came up was his signature move, a jump step after dribbling behind the ball, and a stop-and-go jump shot!

The margin recovered 2 points.

There was also a burst of cheers from the audience at Bradley Arena.

Little K's face softened slightly.

As long as the Bucks' offensive rhythm continues, that's fine, he glanced at Yi Jianlian, who was returning to the defense, and said silently in his heart: As long as you can survive until Yi's state recovers, then the game will be easy to play!

Xiao K also believes that Yi Jianlian can find his form in this game.

He is Yi Jianlian, since he entered the alliance, he has never dropped the chain!

The Lakers countered and hit as well.

An easy inside pass to the outside was finally ended by a Kobe jumper that responded with a 2-point from Crawford.

The Lakers are very fluent this time, and they are not affected by the Bucks' defense at all, which is probably a side effect of bringing Crawford up, no matter how much Mo Williams plus Jamal Crawford's guard line, the defensive aspect is really impossible to expect too much.

They really didn't let any accidents happen, just watching the Lakers complete a perfect match between the outside and the inside.

"Huh!"

However, Crawford scored another goal in the next attack, and it was still a three-pointer!

It can be seen that he feels good today.

That's it!

How to use Crawford without losing money?

As long as he scores more points on the offensive end than he concedes on the defensive end, that's fine!

For the rest of the first quarter, after the Bucks came on the court with Crawford, the whole offense was much more fluid, and gradually kept up with the momentum of the Lakers.

29 to 21.

The Bucks are still trailing by just eight points.

Yi Jianlian tried to hit a few more in the next step, but he still didn't shoot, and even one of them could be put into the basket for a layup, and finally he swung around the basket and slid out.

Yi Jianlian's state is really bad.

"It's okay, Yi, you just play at your pace, I believe you can't keep throwing in, until then, we will maintain the score difference!"

"Hey, Channing, it's not about holding on, we can catch up with the score difference!"

"It's not to catch up, it's to overtake, OK?"

During the intermission, Yi Jianlian, who scored zero points in the first quarter, was a little frustrated, and when the guys from the Bucks saw him like this, they said it sentence by sentence, and Yi Jianlian laughed when he heard it.

This stinky and shameless look!

"I believe in you, you will be able to surpass!" Yi Jianlian gave a thumbs up to a few teammates who were about to play first in the second quarter!

Because of the adjustment of this group of teammates, his mood is much better.

Sure enough!

Basketball is really not a one-man sport!

No matter how strong a person is, there will be times when he gets stuck in the quagmire.

Luckily, I still have these teammates!

I'm afraid it's hard for anyone to believe that in the most critical fifth battle, Yi Jianlian, who was in a sluggish state, still had the leisure to think about these things on the bench.

But it was precisely because of these in his mind that Yi Jianlian's irritability disappeared after he hit 0 in the first quarter, and he looked at the court with a relaxed face.

At this time, it is the bench rotation phase on both sides, and the players on both sides are one main player with four substitutes, and it is the Bucks who currently have the upper hand.

Ilyasova became the x-factor during this period, making two consecutive three-pointers from the bottom corner to help the team narrow the gap to three points.

After hitting the second three-pointer, Ilyasova stretched out his finger and pointed at Yi Jianlian in the defense: "Yi, this is a three-point shot for you!" ”

Hahaha!

This guy!

Yi Jianlian was amused by Ilyasova, pulled a towel from the side, waved it a few times, and said, "Aisen, your performance tonight is great!" ”

"Yi, you look so handsome when you swing a towel!"

Ilyasova watched from afar and responded with a smile.

Phil Jackson looked at the sudden surge in momentum of the Bucks in the second quarter, and didn't expect that the Bucks would not be a Yi Jianlian? Without him, how could anyone else be so energetic?

Substitution, must be replaced!

Phil Jackson watched the Bucks hit another three-pointer to chase the difference to only 1 point, and immediately called a timeout, ready to go straight up and down.

Xiao K also knew why Phil Jackson called this timeout, and called the Bucks' starters to the front, first glanced at Yi Jianlian intentionally or unintentionally, and saw that his expression was very relaxed, and he was not affected by the sluggish state in the first quarter at all, and he was also relieved: "OK, the difference is only 1 point, next, the Lakers will definitely pull the starters on the court, the game has reached the most critical moment, as long as we can suppress their next wave of counterattack, we will definitely be able to overtake the score, success or failure in one fell swoop, It's up to you! ”

"Enough time!"

At the end of the timeout, there were no surprises on both sides, and at the same time they took the starters.

Kobe Bryant, who was back on the court, held the ball in front of Courtney Lee, and threw Courtney Lee behind him with a continuous change of direction and shaking, and when he was close to the position one step before the free throw line, he repeated his trick and took a step back to shoot a jumper, but Courtney Lee was on guard this time, retracted his body, and did not hit Kobe Bryant's body again.

Unfortunately, in this way, he was not able to cause any interference with Kobe's shooting.

"Huh!"

Ball in!

The margin returned to three points......
