Chapter Eighty-Seven: It's Over
"There are still more than 40 seconds left, we have to score one quickly, and then return to the defense, this time defending, we try not to let Kobe Bryant catch the ball!"
Kobe Bryant can still throw the ball in against Yi Jianlian, this is no longer something that can be explained by normal thinking, this guy feels too hot tonight, instead of racking his brains to find a way to defend him, it is better to guard hard so that Kobe Bryant can't catch the ball!
Turiaf's free throw shooting rate in his career has not been very good, and he ran behind Yi Jianlian's ass for the whole game today, and his physical fitness is also very depleted, if he can force the ball into his hands and deliberately foul him to execute the free throw, as long as this guy can't hit one of the two free throws, then the Bucks may not be over tonight!
"Toot!"
The game resumes.
The audience at the scene was quieter, but soon there was a uniform cheering sound, and it was particularly deterrent under the collective waving of the cheering stick.
Fortunately, the players on the Bucks on the court now are not calves, and they have seen some storms and waves, even if it is Yi Jianlian, the crazy hi of online fans in the past month and a half has also exercised his ability to withstand the boos without changing his color.
The Bucks' overall tactical movement was not flustered.
The Lakers' defensive focus is obviously on Yi Jianlian, there is no way, he is the Lakers' Kobe Bryant tonight, and he can't stop it at all, Phil Jackson believes that at this moment, Xiao K will definitely arrange tactics for this guy to play.
Phil guessed correctly, Xiao K's first choice for arranging tactics was really Yi Jianlian, but when Yi Jianlian executed, he passed the ball out again after attracting the defense and gave it to Michael Reed, who just ran out of an empty space, did not hesitate to receive the ball, and threw it directly.
Two points in hand!
The tactics laid out by Little K were half the battle.
The Bucks and Lakers are only 2 points apart, and there are 35 seconds left in the game, which is enough for them to play another offense!
But Phil Jackson called a timeout at this time.
The scene only entered the cheerleading dance session again.
"There's a good chance they're going to play a fast break!"
When you call a timeout, it's a half-court serve, and it can be said that it is more than enough to complete a fast break in 7 seconds.
And that way, even if the Bucks run out of 24 seconds, they still have 4 seconds to play another offense, if they still have a timeout.
Xiao K learned about it from the assistant coach, his face was heavy, and the other party really had a timeout opportunity that was useless.
"Damn it!"
Xiao K knows that this last attack may really fall into the hands of the Lakers.
And, that's not the worst of it!
Worst of all, if they want to equalize or win, they have to be able to defend the Lakers' two offenses in the next 35 seconds and score their only offense.
If they fail to complete a condition in one round, they will definitely lose!
"If I had known, let Mo Williams grind for a while!"
Xiao K thought indignantly in his heart, but he also knew that Mo Williams couldn't be blamed for this, he said that he played a fast attack, and finally had a chance, how could he not vote?
"Then let's switch back to human marking!"
The Lakers had two offensive opportunities left, and it was too risky to wrap up at this time, so K Jr. gave up his initial plan and switched back to a more secure man-to-man tactic.
"But Mason, you have to entangle Kobe, don't give him a chance to catch the ball in the early stage!"
"The opponent will definitely arrange a cover, and the person guarding the covering player must immediately entangle Mason after he is thrown away and switch guards with Mason!"
Xiao K's arrangement is still quite thoughtful, especially the last words to Mason before going on the court, which allowed the Bucks to successfully prevent the Lakers' offense.
Sure enough, the Lakers chose to attack quickly.
It's just that Kobe, who is the number one arrow, has been pestered by Mason since he came on the court, and Odom made a cover for him, and finally got rid of it, but he was entangled by Michael Reed head-on.
The 7 seconds were over, and Fisher, who was in possession of the ball, couldn't find a chance to give the ball to Kobe, so he could only give it to Turiaf on the inside.
The latter had no footsteps, was held up by Yi Jianlian, failed to hit the strong start, and the rebound was successfully grabbed by Bogut.
"Pause!"
Bogut also learned to be smart, and as soon as he grabbed the rebound, he immediately called a timeout, using the Bucks' last timeout.
"The first choice is Yi Jianlian!"
The ball was scored by Reed just now, and the opponent will definitely defend Michael Reid at this time, and continue to give the ball to Yi Jianlian, which will definitely take him by surprise.
Moreover, even if Yi Jianlian is caught again, judging from the latter's current passing ability, it is not difficult to find Michael Reid and pass the ball to him.
This also strengthened Xiao K's choice of Yi Jianlian as his first choice.
Get back on the field.
The Bucks were greeted with boos, and judging from the time the sound lasts, this boo may not stop until the end of the Bucks' offense.
Mo Williams kept her distance from Fisher, dribbling slowly and waiting for the clock to pass.
The Lakers didn't come up to force defense, their last quick attack only took 5 seconds, and now there are 30 seconds left, even if the Bucks run out of time, then they still have 6 seconds to play the last offense, and even once they can defend this ball, the Bucks will still be passive, so there is no need to rush at all.
With 10 seconds left on the offensive clock, Mo Williams finally moved.
As expected, the boos in the audience did not stop, and even the movement became louder and louder!
The boos were so loud that Mo Williams subconsciously breathed a sigh of relief the moment he found Yi Jianlian and successfully passed the ball.
can make the heartless Mo Williams nervous, and the movement of this boo can be imagined.
Yi Jianlian catches the ball, and the Lakers don't have a bag this time.
It's very smart, anyway, even if Yi Jianlian scores, it's just a tie-up goal, and there's really no need to wrap it up.
Yi Jianlian saw that there was no one to wrap up, and he played very resolutely, using his footsteps to shake off Turyaf and hook his hand to hit!
The boos from the audience stopped instantly.
Meanwhile, the Lakers requested their final timeout.
"Whew!"
Yi Jianlian, who hit the key goal, didn't have much excitement when he came off the field.
It's just a tie ball.
After defending the Lakers' last offense, that's when it's time to get excited.
He is like this, and so are the other players on the Bucks, all of them are like big enemies, and when Xiao K arranges tactics, even the bench is surrounded.
At this time, the hearts of all the players of the Bucks are together!
Xiao K's final defensive arrangement actually doesn't listen to it and knows it, it must be aimed at Kobe.
Phil Jackson knows this, too.
What needs to be done now is what kind of help Kobe Bryant will get from his teammates to get out of the entanglement and get the ball......
“MVP!”
“MVP!”
“MVP!”
All the spectators in the Staples Arena stood up at this point, and they all used all their strength to cheer for the man.
They all know it, too.
This last attack, the executor is definitely Kobe Bryant!
The referee's whistle blew, and Kobe Bryant, who was near the top of the arc, was unsurprisingly entangled by Mason, but this time Fisher blocked and dismantled in time, Kobe Bryant didn't waste a second, and got rid of it directly, Michael Reed hurriedly chased, but was stuck by Odom.
Double Cover!
In order for Kobe Bryant to receive the ball smoothly, the Lakers players are also fighting!
But...... The on-court players of the Bucks also fight!
"It's not over yet!" Mo Williams wrapped it up from a different angle.
"Pass the ball first!"
Kobe Bryant saw that he was going to be trapped, and anxiously signaled that Ryaf passed the ball first, and if he gave the ball to the Bucks in violation of the rules in 5 seconds, it would be more than worth the loss.
Dribble guard Fisher catches the ball.
Thankfully, Mason followed him right in front of him.
8. The timer begins!
Fisher can still keep his composure, he's looking for Kobe.
7!
But Kobe Bryant still couldn't break the bag. Michael Reid and Mo Williams just followed him, not giving him a chance at all.
"Run back!"
Kobe Bryant reached out and pushed the stunned Odom in the middle of the run, and the latter finally reacted, making a move to ask for the ball while running back.
6!
Fisher was about to give the ball, Odom had the ability to shoot, and Mo Williams didn't dare not follow.
Kobe Bryant broke out of his bag.
5!
Fisher's eyes were quick, and the moment he saw Kobe Bryant rushing out of the encirclement, he hurriedly passed the ball.
4!
After Kobe Bryant received the ball, he didn't care if there was anyone in front of him, and he was directly ready to jump.
"Ho!"
Yi Jianlian had already been alert and rushed towards Kobe. But the next second Kobe Bryant made the shooting action, he actually took the action back.
Fooled!
Yi Jianlian reacted when he saw this action, but his whole body couldn't be controlled anymore and crashed into Kobe's body.
"Toot!" The referee's whistle blows.
It's over!
