Chapter 160: The Knight Loses (5/20)
Yuan Shu immediately jumped back after turning around, but when he jumped in the air, he found that the basket was missing!
Facing in front of him, it was Lakers coach Phil Jackson's stunned face, Yuan Shu immediately realized that something was wrong, and subconsciously looked at the right side of his body with his peripheral vision, it turned out that he used a lot of strength when he turned around, it should have been just a 180° turn, but he turned 270° unconsciously, no wonder the basket appeared on his right side after jumping up.

It's over, it's embarrassing!
But before Yuan Shu could think about his next move, because Yuan Shu, who turned his head and leaned back, the back of his head was hitting Gasol's face from the side!
Listening to the muffled "bang", Yuan Shu felt a pain in the back of his head, and then his body seemed to hit someone.
When Yuan Shu squatted on the ground and held his head, he saw Gasol who was also squatting on the ground, but the position Yuan Shu was holding was the back of his head, and the position that Gasol was holding with both hands was his nose!
Thinking of the "bang" just now, and then linked to the back of his head that hurt terribly, Yuan Shu couldn't help but free up a hand and touched his nose, if he hit his nose just now, it would definitely hurt!
Sure enough, when Gasol removed his hand, a large lump of nosebleeds was already pouring out.
“fu-ck!” Ignoring the blood on his face, Gasol was about to rush to Yuan Shu to fight.
Yuan Shu immediately bounced off the ground, turned around and ran, not that Yuan Shu felt that he couldn't kill Gasol, but that he was too weak to fight. It was originally his own shooting mistake, which was already embarrassing, and as a result, Gasol's nose was injured, and he really didn't have the confidence to reason with the other party, so he simply hid away.
The other Cavaliers and Lakers players immediately persuaded Gasol to stop, and the Lakers team doctor immediately came on the court to help Gasol to the infirmary, ready to stop the bleeding and bandage it.
Seeing Gasol gone, Yuan Shu breathed a sigh of relief, and the back of his head didn't seem to hurt much, but for the ball just now, the referee punished Yuan Shu for an offensive foul, and the ball was handed over to the Lakers.
After Gasol went off injured, Lamar Odom naturally came on.
Odom's defensive intensity is not bad, but the coverage area is much smaller than Gasol's, and the step-back jumper that Yuan Shu copied from Kobe Bryant began to exert power in the second quarter, and Kobe Bryant began to score points on the court.
After Yuan Shu grabbed a frontcourt rebound and immediately hit a close-range step-back jumper under Odom's defense, Bryant knew what Maddy was telling the truth.
"This kid turned out to be a master of cutting points in Maddie's mouth, and compared to the last fight, this kid has improved a lot!" Kobe Bryant couldn't help but think in his heart.
Relying on Yuan Shu, who can be inside and out, the Cavaliers hit a three-pointer by Gibson in the middle of the third quarter, and the score of the two sides equalized again!
During this period, the Cavaliers' 2-3 defense also had a good effect on the Lakers without Gasol, especially the area that Parker was responsible for defending and the adjacent area, which became the most impermeable fortress for the Cavaliers' defense.
Just when the Cavaliers equalized the score and prepared to overtake the score amid the frantic cheers of the fans in the stadium, something unexpected happened.
Anthony Parker accidentally bumped into Ron Artest's knee during a breakaway layup, and it was in the front position of the calf bone, and players who were closer to Parker at the time even heard a "click" of broken bones.
When the players on the Cavaliers immediately gathered around him, seeing Parker's painful expression, he immediately knew that the injury was not light.
Yuan Shu immediately signaled to the sidelines, and the team doctor and players immediately surrounded him, and after a brief examination by the team doctor, he shook his head, indicating that the injury was not good and needed to be sent to the hospital immediately for further examination.
With Murray Harris and Joey Graham on his feet, Parker gritted his teeth in pain and limped back to the locker room with the team doctor.
Pau Gasol of the Lakers had stopped the bleeding and returned to the court during Parker's timeout with an injury, and it didn't look like much of a problem, just a band-aid was applied to the bridge of his nose.
At the moment, the most depressed is Yuan Shu, who has just gained the advantage of the situation and equalized the score, and is about to reverse the momentum, but Parker, who performed well in this game, left the field due to injury, and the balance of the confrontation between the two sides was broken all of a sudden.
In the case of Jamison and Parker's injuries and Williams' disappearance, the Cavaliers' starting five tigers, only Vallejo and Yuan Shu, two interior players, were originally inferior to last season's lineup, and now they are even thinner.
After Parker's injury, Scott had no choice but to replace Alonzo Key, although Kei's personal ability may not be weaker than Parker's, but Kee, who was suddenly substituted, was obviously not in rhythm, and was severely humiliated by the opposite Kobe Bryant in the next game.
After the Lakers' Gasol returned, Odom was replaced and put on the court again, and the Lakers quickly opened up the score gap under the leadership of Gasol and Kobe Bryant.
Yuan Shu finally realized the feeling of being invincible with two fists and four hands, when defending Gasol with all his might, Gasol's ball can always find Kobe Bryant who runs out of position, and then Kobe scores, and when Yuan Shu stepped forward to make up for Kobe, Kobe Bryant found a connection with the inside line, and the easy air relay was scored by Gasol.
In the face of a huge point difference, even if there is a sharp step-back jumper, it is useless, after Parker's injury, the Lakers are even more crazy to wrap up Yuan Shu, the original Cavaliers' three muskets, this game is not at all, only relying on Yuan Shu alone against the luxury lineup of the Lakers, hoping that it will turn the tide, it is really unrealistic.
Use power to hit back, beautiful 180° turn, picturesque backward jump shot, hit! Yuan Shu made another wonderful shot under Gasol's defense, but there was less than 1 minute left before the end of the game, and the Cavaliers trailed the Lakers by a full 15 points, and the big picture was decided.
With Fisher possessing the ball in the midcourt, the Lakers had given up one last chance to attack, and 112-97, the Lakers took a perfect revenge on the Cavaliers on the road, avenging a narrow victory by the Cavaliers at home.
Despite losing the game, the Cavaliers fans who came to watch the game still gave their boys the warmest applause.
At the moment of the final whistle of the game, Kobe Bryant excitedly clenched his right hand into a fist, made several knocks back and forth in the air, and then beat his chest, and then came to the sidelines to kiss his wife Vanessa, who had been watching his game on the sidelines.
"Hey, Scarlett, Yuan should be in a very sad mood when he lost today." Vanessa said to her best friend after Kobe Bryant left.
"It should be okay, but his heart is as strong as a certain part." Scarlett said with a smile.
"I'm getting less and less ashamed."
"Each other, who told me that when Kobe Bryant was injured, he had to do it twice a night?"
"Damn!"
Two moving beauties frolicking on the sidelines have also become a beautiful scenery on the side of the court.
