The game had to be interrupted for three minutes due to the wild shouts of the crowd.

At the moment in the referee's bench, the two referees are also hotly discussing whether this goal should be counted as three points or two points.

"You see, according to Chapter 3, Article 27 of the NBA Referee Code, a dunk counts as two points."

"But you see, the first chapter of the general rules says that as long as the feet are outside the three-point line when the shot is made, all threes are valid. As long as he shoots from outside the three-point line, whether he is outside the three-point line, inside the three-point line, or under the basket when he lands, he should count as three points. ”

"But did you notice that his right foot seemed to be on the sideline when he landed?"

"Oh yes? I'll turn on the camera under that basket and see the replay. ”

“。。。。。。”

After a while, the two referees unanimously ruled that although the rules on the referee's manual about this action were somewhat contradictory, in order to pay tribute to this great jumping dunk outside the three-point line, it was decided that Li Qiang had cut three points for this attack!

115:113 The Timberwolves have a two-point lead.

In the next game, the momentum of the Lakers generals seemed to be affected by Li Qiang's shocking dunk, and they began to play iron. The Timberwolves, on the other hand, played a wave of offense under the leadership of Li Qiang.

In the end, the score was fixed at 126:117 for the Timberwolves vs Lakers. Li Qiang played 24 minutes in the whole game, and only played a total of 24 minutes in the first and fourth quarters, cutting 38 points, 7 rebounds and 9 assists, contributing 5 steals and 3 blocks. Among them, he made 7 of 10 three-pointers (including that jump dunk from outside the three-point line), and scored 21 points on 10 shots!

The astonishing scoring efficiency, terrifying shooting percentage, and suffocating steal and block statistics on the defensive end can only be regarded as normal performance for Li Qiang.

Li Qiang's role in the Timberwolves can be clearly seen from the comparison between Li Qiang's presence and absence. In the two quarters when Li Qiang was not on the court, the Timberwolves only scored a measly 44 points, and Li Qiang scored a full 82 points in the two quarters when he was on the court.

Kobe Bryant played a full 42 minutes in this game, working very hard, and scored a total of 40 points with free throws. Kobe Bryant only shot less than 30% of his 5-of-17 shooting when Li Qiang was defending, while others were shooting more than 50% of 11-of-19 when defending!

In the next three games, the Lakers won't be as lucky as today. After all, this year's regular season only finished eighth in the West, and the overall strength is too far behind the Timberwolves.

In the second game, the Lakers' hand was cold, and the Timberwolves easily won the game in only two quarters, and all the garbage time in the second half was handed over to a bench.

In the third game, Kobe Bryant broke out and scored 48 points, but unfortunately Li Qiang immediately showed all his strength and easily scored 56 points. Li Qiangsheng Kobe. The Timberwolves beat the Lakers.

In the fourth game, the aging Kobe Bryant was exhausted, and he repeatedly hit the iron without physical strength, and the Lakers led by him were easily defeated by the Timberwolves again.

After the game, Li Qiang went to comfort Kobe Bryant again. But the proud Kobe Bryant refused to accept Li Qiang's invitation after the big defeat. Li Qiang was silent in his heart.

However, the Timberwolves also have bad news, Lefou, who has just returned from injury, sprained his ankle again during a training game. Although this time is not very serious, for the sake of insurance, he will definitely not be seen in this year's playoffs.

However, Li Qiang is not very worried in his heart, there is an F4 golden super combination composed of himself and Polees, Braque, and Gasol, and there are bench bandits like Martin Kevin on the bench, and sweeping the playoffs is just a sure thing!
