Chapter 191: The Wonderful J.R
Next, the two sides entered the entanglement stage, and Anthony Huang Yu, who was easy to play, couldn't prevent him at all, even if he opened the double attribute, but Anthony didn't break through and only played the middle shot, because he also knew that his three points were sparse today, and 7 shots and 0 shots!
So Huang Yu, who did not limit Anthony on the defensive end, began to play on the offensive end, and successfully helped the Lakers maintain the pursuit of the Nuggets when Kobe's shooting percentage decreased.
With 45 seconds left in the game, Bryant hit a shot to tie the score at 101, but Kenyon Martin grabbed a rebound under the basket and beat Bynum to give the Nuggets a score in the final 29.6 seconds!
Although the key ball was handed to Kobe, the Nuggets' package allowed Kobe to pass the ball out, and the old fish quickly transferred the ball to Gasol, but Gasol missed the shot, and the rebound was grabbed by Billups, so the experienced old fish directly fouled Billups to the free throw line.
However, Billups made two free throws and two hits, directly allowing the Nuggets to lead the Lakers by 4 points at 105-101, leaving the Lakers with only 13.1 seconds left, this time the Nuggets misjudged, when the ball was given to Kobe Bryant again, the Nuggets wrapped it again, but the old fish received Kobe Bryant was very rough Anqiu threw it directly to Huang Yu, and Huang Yu shot directly at Kreza and hit a three-point shot.
This time the pressure is not only on the Lakers, the Nuggets are still under pressure, and sure enough, when the old fish sent Billups to the free throw line again when serving, this time it was a bit ruthless, Billups only hit the second free throw! The Nuggets only lead the Lakers by two points.
But the Nuggets made a mistake in judgment again, between Huang Yu and Kobe Bryant they chose Kobe, because he thought that the killer ball would not be given to a rookie to shoot, but they couldn't think of the Zen master's arrangement at all, Gasol served and threw it directly with both hands, Huang Yu threw off Kreza with the help of Bynum's block, received the pass outside the three-point line on the right side, and pulled it out directly.
"Huh!"
Huang Yu hit a three-point shot, the Lakers succeeded, the Nuggets lost two away games, and the next game will return to Denver to face the Lakers, who have won two in a row.
----------
Just when the Lakers traveled to Denver with two straight wins to prepare for the next game, the second game between the Cavaliers and the Magic officially began.
In the last game, the Cavaliers, who have been soaring since entering the playoffs, were beaten by the exhausted Magic! The advantage of the whole game was reduced to ashes in the back left quarter and a half, the 16-point advantage was overtaken, and the final quasi-stunner gave the Cavaliers their first loss of the playoffs.
So in the second game, when James was interviewed before the game, he declared that he had to win, and he did want to win, the home court advantage was no longer there, this one was lost, and he went to Orlando with two consecutive defeats, so the Cavaliers' trip to the playoffs will be extremely difficult!
So at the beginning of the Cavaliers' offense was very ferocious, and soon opened up the difference between the two teams, James did not rush to shoot in the first quarter, but assisted his teammates to score again and again, and his teammates hit more powerful today, so the Cavaliers quickly played a 15-5 attack wave at the beginning, and the Magic's defense today was full of holes, 30-16 Magic ended the first quarter behind the Cavaliers with a 14-point difference.
At the beginning of the second quarter, the Cavaliers' bench lineup quickly entered the state, and before James played again, the difference was expanded to 23 points, originally if James could set off another wave of offense after playing, and keep it until the end of the half, then the Cavaliers are likely to lock up the victory in the third quarter, but unexpectedly, the Magic's outside shooters seem to have found a feeling, and after hitting consecutive three-pointers, the gap was narrowed to within 15 points, although James scored 9 points after playing again, But the Cavaliers only went into halftime 56-44.
In the third quarter, the Magic became more and more courageous, narrowing the difference to 6 points, looking at the scene in front of him was very similar to a copy of the previous game, James suddenly broke out, not only scoring himself but also assisting his teammates to score, once stretching the difference to 10 points, but the Magic stubbornly pursued and always kept the difference at about 5 points.
Entering the fourth quarter of the Magic's Courtney Lee and the hero of the previous game, Lewis broke out again, and the mid-range shot breakthrough chased the score of the two teams to 82 draws, but at this time the Cavaliers fell into foul trouble, giving the Magic a chance to overtake, but James could only force himself to play the basket, but the Magic gritted their teeth and forced the score to overtake, and the two sides entered the stage of life and death.
Williams scored five straight points on a jumper to give the Cavaliers an 89-86 lead. But with 48.7 seconds left in the game, Turkoglou hit a three-pointer to tie the game at 93 again.
At this time, James actually walked in violation of the law at a critical moment. The Magic's final attack was given to Turkglou, who hit a mid-range shot with one second left in the game to put the Magic up 95-93.
The Cavaliers once again faced the dilemma of being quasi-killed, but James created an even more amazing miracle, after receiving the ball, he immediately shot outside the three-point line, and he hit a miraculous shot, and the Cavaliers magically killed the Magic 96-95, which allowed the Cavaliers to avoid a 0-2 deficit at home.
James is so competitive, so that the people in the league planning department are even more encouraged, and this year may be able to achieve the grand blueprint of 23V24! But they overlooked the fact that the offensive slump of Warcraft today was also the reason for the Magic's loss, although he got 10 points and 18 rebounds! And there are only 4 rebounds in the front court!
----------
On May 24th, the third game of the Lakers and Nuggets series started at the Pepsi Center in Denver, this game Huang Yu did not start, because he had a serious altitude reaction, the last time he was in the Jazz, he didn't feel good, this time there was some dizziness, nausea, although until the eve of the game, the symptoms were reduced a lot, but he was still excluded from starting, at this time Kobe Bryant They also popularized Huang Yu's knowledge.
Denver is located in the Colorado Plateau, the Nuggets' home Pepsi Center is 1,606 meters above sea level, and the Utah Jazz, which is known as the home of the Devils, belongs to the Energy Solutions Arena in Salt Lake City, at an altitude of about 1,300 meters, so the Denver Nuggets are higher at an altitude and this is the highest altitude arena in the NBA league.
The reason why Huang Yu thinks in his heart that the Jazz Arena is called the home of the devil, not the Pepsi Center, can only say that the Nuggets had no sense of existence before, and it was basically a round tour, if they didn't get Anthony and formed the Golden Twin Guns, maybe their attendance rate was less than 50%, even now that they have entered the Western Finals, the attendance rate is only about 70%, let alone TV broadcasting! When Huang Yu was an otaku, he could see 2-3 Nuggets games in a season, which was still the golden double-gun period, otherwise the Lakers Rockets would have met the Nuggets away from home.
Winning the home court in a row made the Lakers feel like a rainbow, but the Nuggets gave the Lakers a lesson at the beginning, the Lakers' defense was torn apart by the strong Nuggets, and the defense was full of holes, and on offense, the Lakers also kept missing opportunities and began to fall behind.
After most of the quarter, the trail barely kept the deficit at two points, but with 3:32 left, the Lakers had a three-on-one chance after a steal, but Odom was stealed, Fisher fouled during the counter-steal, and Anthony got two free throws.
The Lakers hit three to one, but were scored two points by the Nuggets, which is rare in the professional arena.
After Anthony hit two free throws, the Lakers' defensive holes were opened again, and "Birdman" Anderson flew up like a big bird, and scored a violent dunk, and the Nuggets led 25-17.
Opposite Huang Yu is Kreza, although Huang Yu is in good shape, but he did not shoot from a distance! Instead, go directly to the inside line to ask for the ball, and directly hit Kreza with physical strength to see how it goes!
In the confrontation, Huang Yu found that he felt good, and scored for the first time in this game after a golden rooster independent shot! Looking at Huang Yu's cautious appearance, the system elves are crazy, I haven't appeared in many episodes, to know your state, isn't it good to look at the attribute panel? (The properties panel doesn't appear often when entering the charging stage, so as not to be misunderstood!) )
In the continuous rotation, there is still 1 minute and 45 seconds to go to the end of the first quarter, the Lakers players on the court are basically substitutes, but the defensive intensity is much improved, Huang Yu hit a shot after the physical confrontation, and found that he felt good, so he also fired on the outside, 1 of 2 three-pointers, and the Lakers finally chased the score to 26-28 at the end of the quarter.
At the beginning of the second quarter, the Nuggets scored 6 points in a row to widen the difference! But Huang Yu then scored 5 points in a row to return to color, but apparently the Zen master didn't plan to let Huang Yu play for too long, so he used Odom and Kobe Bryant to return to the court!
After a period of correction, Kobe and Odom seem to have found a feeling, Kobe Bryant turned around and made a backward jumper, no temper at all, Odom also found a feeling in the middle distance, the two helped the Lakers bite the score, in the second quarter of the halfway, the two teams reached a 39 draw, but the Nuggets began to make substitutions after Kobe Bryant scored the basket, and the military spirit gradually stabilized, and played a wave of 5-0 attack waves to take the lead again, but Kobe Bryant continued to make a strong hand under the basket, and the Nuggets had no chance to open the score for a while, and the halftime was over, The Lakers trailed by four points at 48-52.
In the third quarter, Kobe Bryant directly led the Lakers to start the counterattack mode, but who knew that the Nuggets were very tenacious and did not give the Lakers a chance at all, and when there were 4 minutes and 46 seconds left in the third quarter, Kobe Bryant and Wharton scored a dunk in the air and caused a foul, and scored 3 points with free throws to chase the score to 64-64.
However, Billups immediately returned a ball, Kobe Bryant counterattacked and caused Anthony to foul, and Huang Yu replaced Odom in the second free throw, and the Lakers' on-court lineup became, Bynum, Gasol, Huang Yu, Kobe, and Shannon Brown.
In the first two quarters, both teams did not shoot high three-point shots, but after Huang Yu came on the court, the three-point battle began in the last two minutes of the quarter, and a total of 7 shots were made during this time.
After Kobe Bryant's second free throw, after receiving the ball, he directly changed to an emergency stop to face Kobe Bryant's three-point shot, but Kobe didn't care at all, and Huang Yu made a three-point shot in an empty position, obviously unhappy that Kobe Bryant didn't respond to himself, so he dribbled across the midline again and dribbled in the face of Kobe's crotch, but Huang Yu and Kobe Bryant this season, he didn't know how many reasons he found to be heads-up, seeing Kobe's eyes, Huang Yu prayed for JR for a second, that is, he blinked and said "May God bless you".
was directly cut off by Kobe Bryant, I thought that Kobe Bryant would ride in front of him, but Xiangnon Brown and Huang Yu still followed, but Kobe did not choose to pass the ball to Shannon Brown, because Anthony had quickly returned to defense, and Kobe Bryant crossed and threw the ball to Huang Yu before JR chased the defense.
Huang Yu, who received the ball, was stunned, thinking that even if Kobe Bryant didn't come to chase three points, he would come to a beautiful counterattack, but who knew that he actually passed the ball, and Huang Yu actually pulled it up and shot, Huang Yu dared to swear that this was definitely guided by inertia! Because the second team often rehearses this counterattack.
"Huh!"
But fortunately, Huang Yu hit a three-point shot, otherwise I don't know if Kobe Bryant would pull Huang Yu to practice alone after the game!
It was the Nuggets' turn to attack again, JR was unwilling to go to Kobe Bryant again, but Anthony was unusual, and he didn't ask for the ball much in the third quarter, but his shooting rate was a little miserable, and so far in the third quarter, 5 in 0, and now the Lakers are biting tightly, so he decided to maintain deterrence and let JR play, after all, looking at this thing is to throw confidence.
Sure enough, with the blocking and dismantling of Kobe Bryant, JR hit a three-point shot again, this time Kobe raised his eyebrows, and asked for the ball directly after half time, and pulled out his hand directly in the face of JR, but unfortunately, he didn't hit, but the rebound was grabbed by Gasol and passed directly to Huang Yu who ran to the bottom corner, a feint to shake off Anthony who pounced, and Huang Yu moved sideways and hit a three-point shot.
But JR seemed to be competing, directly backcourt with the ball over the middle line one step, two steps away from Kobe Bryant to shoot directly, and smiled after the goal, which directly made Kobe angry, over the half to come to the ball to face JR first showed a breakthrough, a feint to shake JR's feet unstable, and then a step back jumper, three-point hit, and then when the defense was reversed, both hands made a very helpless action.
At this time, JR, who had fallen into the magic barrier, had already gone up, received the ball and walked quickly across the halfcourt, and it was also a show operation in front of Kobe, although Kobe's pace was chaotic, but how could you be shaken to the center of gravity unstable, so he was stunned and did not let JR succeed.
"Time is running out, hurry up!"
Anthony next to Huang Yu shouted, JR was stunned and looked at the timer, there were only 8 seconds left in the third quarter, so after another feint to no avail, he directly pulled out his hand, it seemed that JR was really lucky, and directly hit a three-point shot to help the Nuggets lead 79-71.
However, Smith was too arrogant after scoring the goal, and he swore a rap after scoring the goal, but he didn't expect the referee to listen to him behind him and directly blew him a technical foul.
At the beginning of the fourth quarter, Odom replaced Huang Yu on the court, and Kobe Bryant executed a free throw for a technical foul by JR! And the fourth-quarter possession that the Nene scramble for the Nuggets was also transferred to the Lakers. (The first quarter is contested by both sides jumping the ball in the middle court.) Within 48 minutes of regular time, the team that wins the first jump ball in the first quarter will automatically get the baseline serve at the beginning of the fourth quarter, and the opponent will get the baseline serve in the second and third quarters. )
