"You don't think we're going to lose, do you?"

Harris was pondering how to cook the chicken soup, but he didn't expect Zhang Yu to speak first. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

The Magic should have spoken, but he was so bad today that his motivation would be greatly reduced, and he was in a bad mood and couldn't figure out how to motivate his teammates.

Zhang Fu is different, today he is really alone, and he is the only player in the team who has performed well, and of course he can stand up and motivate his teammates.

"Don't keep your head down, I've been waiting for this opportunity for a long time, I've never played such a disparity in the scoreline, or on the road, in the Western Conference Finals, in the eyes of hundreds of millions of fans around the world...... Think about it, what an exhilarating scene......" Speaking of which, Zhang Qian looked at his teammates in the locker room, "but look at your appearance, if you really don't have the confidence to score, at least stay calm and let me do it." But I'm alone, and we're not destined to turn defeat into victory, just like yesterday's magic. The difference is that we still have the second half, and if somebody can help me with some of the burden, at least we can make a decent death. ”

Zhang Mao's words are not chicken soup, it is related to his character, making chicken soup is not his style, talking sassy is. But this time and place is obviously not suitable for, and he can only use his own methods to stimulate the fighting spirit of his teammates.

Harris was a little embarrassed, and his chicken soup was not served again because of Zhang Fu's messing around.

The Lakers players raised their heads, but don't get me wrong, these words weren't enough to make them pull their necks and yell like chicken blood!

This kind of scene usually appears in movies and novels, Zhang Zhu's words are rare in reality, do you really think that the locker room leaders or coaches of these NBA teams can speak like Martin Luther anytime and anywhere?

"Hell! On TV, the protagonist says so much like me, and it's usually a scene of surging emotions, don't you give me a response? ”

Zhang Qi couldn't help but complain, he felt that the reaction given by his teammates was too small.

"Lyon, we're 23 points behind?"

'We want to win as well, but first we need to think of ways to break down their defenses.

"Not only that, but we have to guard against them."

“…………”

The Lakers players obviously don't give much face, Zhang Wei is very unhappy, and secretly says that Lao Tzu's speech is so effective?

Not only did it fail to make people excited, but they actually asked me so many questions!

'In my eyes, we're 0-0 with them and I'm aiming to beat them by 24 points in the second half. Okay, I know you might not think about it, because I don't know how to break through their defenses, and I don't know how to defend against them, but I just won't surrender, and if I lose, I have to lose with momentum, and if I lose even momentum, then don't think about winning again. You know, the moment the Magic slipped away with their tails between their legs yesterday, I knew they were going to be the lost dogs, and they weren't going to win a single game against the Bulls. But I'm different, I'll never admit defeat, even if I'm already decided, I won't fucking admit defeat! ”

Zhang Mao's words are not so much a speech as his competitive spirit is too strong, he will not be crushed by others, he always wants to win.

The fighting spirit of the Lakers players has finally recovered a little, although Zhang Fu's words have the meaning of complaining about them, but the youngest person on the team is Zhang Fu, which makes many people feel ashamed.

"Don't forget your manager, I have a way to break down their defence and a way to defend against them."

Harris said I'm not disconnected, have you all forgotten about me, the awesome head coach?

The Lakers players immediately came to their senses, and Harris sighed in his heart, although Zhang Fu's gameplay was a bit different, but it finally restored the team's fighting spirit a lot, and he was not good at making chicken soup, and the effect may not be as good as Zhang Fu, and now the situation is much better than he imagined.

"Actually, we have no problems attacking and defending, the only problem is that your mentality is wrong. In the first half, we made 42 shots and only hit 15 goals, which is 35 per cent, and no tactics are useful in this kind of shooting rate. You should also be able to feel that our hit rate is so low because our mentality has been broken. In the first half, we were less and less confident to shoot and defend against opponents, we were too impatient on both offensive and defensive ends, our minds were clouded by negative emotions, and we lost our clear minds. Let's just say that in this state, we are only 23 points behind, which is already very good, and if we continue to play like this, we will lose by 40 points like magic. ”

Harris was critical of his players, and then he naturally had to give them some confidence: "Lyon is right before, we don't have much hope of winning, unless we can forget the first half of the game and treat the second half as a separate game, even if we only win by one point in the second half, we can also think of winning the game." ”

"That's right, think about how the media looked down on us before the season started, and how the SuperSonics lost to us in the first meeting...... I think we've done a good job, and as long as we let go, at least one point won't be a problem. ”

Zhang Mao's words made the Lakers players laugh, and some of the brainless people actually shouted "That's right, if you score one point, you win".

"Is it okay to get a point?"

Zhang Qian secretly complained in his heart, but anyway, the Lakers players regained their fighting spirit in the midfield, and there was laughter in the locker room.

This made the reporters outside the door wide-eyed, and secretly said that these guys wouldn't see the attractive odds and deliberately buy themselves to lose, right?

In the second half, after the players of both teams came out, many fans found that they could not tell from their expressions who was behind by a big score on both sides?

The two teams made no changes to their starting lineups, and this time the Lakers started the offense......

Van Exel didn't speak in midfield, but he was very touched by Zhang Mao's words, but a little tsundere didn't say anything.

Payton completely pressed him to the ground today, just like the last round of ravaging Stockton, the opponent's strong strength made him unable to parry, and this feeling of domination made Van Exel's heart frustrated and angry half apart.

Zhang Zhu's competitive spirit made Van Exel's shame, and then thinking about Stockton's Jedi counterattack in the last two games in the last round, Van Exel's heart also gave birth to a sense of pride, since even the old Stockton never admitted defeat, how could he be so cowardly in his prime?

Payton felt Van Exel's fighting spirit, and generally when he encountered this situation, he would attack a little harder and completely crush the opponent's fighting spirit.

But this trick doesn't always work, some people can beat down but can't crush, Stockton is an example, and Van Exel is not the one who can be broken down so easily.

Payton's pace is faster, and Van Exel's athleticism is inferior, but this disadvantage is smaller than that of Payton and Stockton in the previous round, after all, he is in the prime of life, and once he attacks with his life, Payton will not have it easy.

"Pass!"

Zhang Yu shouted in his heart, he didn't know if Van Exel had seen the slam dunk, as the villain, he crushed that bullshit Liuchuan Feng in all directions in the finale, and kept pressing it to the ground and rubbing it. But later, the fictional character knew how to pass the ball, and he was able to feel tricky, although this kind of plot made him very unhappy, but there was still some truth.

Van Exel is not one to pass the ball, and most of his battles with Payton in the first half ended in failure, but this time he stopped fighting, taking advantage of the attacker's dominance, taking only two steps inside and immediately distributing the ball to his teammates, and passing the ball very firmly.

To be honest, Van Exel's vision is really not good, his passing threat is obviously not enough, and he can't mobilize the opponent's defence at all, much worse than Kidd's every ball is passed to the opponent's soft underbelly, or to the weaker areas of the defense.

But at least, he can pass the ball now, and that's the first step in a long journey.

In the second half, the Lakers' basketball can finally start from scratch, Zhang no longer needs to take care of the entire offensive process, he can play his coquettish position to disrupt the supersonic formation, so that Camp can not control his whereabouts.

But soon, new problems arose.

Although the Lakers can move the ball, under the supersonic strong individual defense, no one except Zhang Fu and Magic can pass a fatal blow at this intensity.

These passes of the Lakers are all passes without purpose, to put it bluntly, they are blind passes, and the chance of mistakes is higher for passing around, and they cannot create threatening shooting opportunities.

After playing for a long time in the second half, the Lakers' offense always passed the ball back and forth, which looked lively, but in the end it would still fall into all kinds of inefficient singles, almost no opportunities to create open shots, and not many mistakes were already their super level play.

Fortunately, after the Lakers players' defense recovered, they finally didn't let the SuperSonics play how to play, and the adjustment of the midfield was not in vain.

At 7 minutes and 55 seconds in the third quarter, the score was 41:64, and the score gap was still in place, which was very bad for the Lakers, and they needed to close the score gap.

"Awesome, it's a draw!"

Although the situation is still unfavorable, Zhang Zhu said with a smile after the pause.

The Lakers players didn't seem to be able to see the score on the scoreboard on the sidelines, they seemed to be quite satisfied with the score, which caused a lot of commentators to complain that these guys were heartless, and they were still in the mood to laugh after falling so far behind?

But what if you don't laugh?

The Lakers players smiled, but they didn't let go.

Harris was replaced by Magic, although his defense will be delayed, but his ability to respond is an indispensable part of the Lakers at this stage, especially under the strong defense of the supersonic, Zhang Mao alone is not enough to create too many offensive opportunities, without the Magic's strategy, the Lakers' offense is difficult to play.

At this time, if Barkley has to pick up in the middle, his individual offensive and playmaking ability will solve most of the problems, and with Mutombo's frontcourt rebounding, the Lakers will have more leeway on the offensive end.

After the Magic came on the court, the Lakers came alive on the offensive end, and the operation of the whole team was not only smooth, but even became pleasing to the eye, and it was not like the first half that could not shoot when there was a chance, and the second half of the group of heartless guys in the eyes of many people was finally able to send the basketball to the basket.

However, problems also arise, and the Lakers have also given the SuperSonics a lot of opportunities on the defensive end.

The Lakers are not so pleasing to the eye when defending, the Magic's pace is too slow, Kemp's pace is too fast, the supersonic speed and a three-point shooting Perkins empty the inside, just a series of moves by Kemp in the middle make it difficult for the Lakers to do anything.

"It's better than not being able to attack and not be able to defend against it, at least we can break the supersonic defense now."

Zhang Wei is still satisfied with this situation, and his so-called winning a point in the second half is not what he really refers to today's game, but to accumulate confidence for the next game.

Just imagine, if they can win the supersonic by a few points in the second half, it means that their first half down was just an accident, just because they couldn't get into the groove quickly because they had too long to rest, not because they couldn't beat the supersonics. Then in the next game, as long as the Lakers are in the state from the beginning, they will naturally be able to compete with the SuperSonics. In the end, it is the battle of whose key ball is more reliable and whose star has stronger personal ability. In this regard, Zhang Wei has confidence in himself, and his teammates also have confidence in him.

So, even if you can't win this match, at least give yourself the confidence to beat your opponent.

These two away games, as long as they win one game, it will be a small gain, the first game will not be won and the second game will be won, but if they are slaughtered by thirty or forty points like magic, then there is really no hope, and the mentality of Orlando is definitely broken.

At 2 minutes and 26 seconds in the third quarter, Zhang Qi continued to run back and received a pass from the Magic, facing another Johnson is a slam dunk, the latter was directly knocked into the baseline reporter area, and after a group of people turned over on their backs, it was Zhang Fu's 2+1.

The two teams fought for offense in the third quarter, and after Zhang added a free throw, the score was 25:22 in the quarter, and the Lakers temporarily led by 3 points in this quarter, although they still trailed by 20 points, but they had completed the task.

"Go on, they'll run out of energy!"

Harris shouted from the sidelines that he was thinking more than the players, why did the SuperSonics play against the Lakers in the third quarter?

George Karl's side is not that style, and he was so cautious today that he didn't stop the two sides from attacking, and it would be untenable to say that he was ahead enough.

So there is only one truth, that is, the SuperSonics can no longer balance offense and defense in the second half, they can only choose one of them, so they chose to attack.

This guess is not wrong, the physical strength of the superSonics players makes it impossible for them to balance offense and defense in the second half, and doing so could be a gap for the Lakers, and there is a possibility of a rout. But if he attacks the Lakers' interior weakness, and he has confidence in Kemp in this regard, today's "Rain Man" played David Robinson's offense, and they can replace defense with offense.

The last two minutes of the third quarter were a contest between Zhang and Kemp.

After Zhang Mao completed 2+1, Camp also made a strong attack under the basket and caused a foul, and also made two free throws.

But what left the SuperSonics unguarded was that Campbell suddenly made a threat on the outside, and although the bastard was always stealthy, he could always use his mid-range shot to score a few points without warning.

This time it was like this, Zhang Mao broke through the score twice in a row, assisted Campbell to make a mid-range shot, and finally helped the Lakers narrow the gap to less than 20 points.

Payton hit a layup with 1:25 left to go, but turned his head and let Van Exel hit a three-pointer.

This goal made the Lakers angry, and the Magic also hit a three-point shot before the end of the third quarter, the SuperSonics were a little scrambling at the end of the quarter, and the last 2 shots were all missed, Zhang Mao hit a long shot with 3 seconds left in the quarter, and the Lakers played a 38:29 score in this quarter, and in the last two minutes, they played a 13:7 attack wave, completing the achievement of winning a single quarter by 9 points, and entering the final quarter with 74:88.

At the moment, the game is not over yet, but the Lakers players are smiling more cheerfully, as if they are the one with a 14-point lead, and this performance naturally made many people complain again.

However, the Lakers played really heartily in this quarter, especially the scoring tide in the last two minutes, which made Seattle fans dare not breathe, and it is estimated that if they are given one more minute, the supersonic will be beaten and collapse directly.

"Awesome, we've won!"

Zhang and these teammates really regarded the second half as a separate game, and they won by 9 points in this quarter, which shows that they are not unable to beat the SuperSonics, and the 14-point deficit is not without a chance to turn over.

The supersonic players have the same sense of crisis as the head coach at the moment, no wonder George Karl did not show satisfaction when leading by more than 20 points, in the second half of the third quarter, they began to feel that their physical fitness was declining rapidly, especially Schramf, who was entangled in Zhang Mao for most of the game, in the second half of the third quarter, he was already a little unable to entangle Zhang Mao, and the gap between the two feet became larger, and it was difficult to make up for this gap by will and consciousness alone.

The Lakers players didn't have physical problems, and the group of people seemed to have just entered the state, and everyone was alive and well, and the physical strength accumulated for almost ten days was enough for them to play two or three overtimes.

In the fourth quarter, George Karl asked Kemp to rest for a while, don't look at their interior core athleticism, but the endurance is not top-notch, and the lustful and lazy Kemp is still very tight to play for more than 40 minutes.

The Lakers replaced all the main players: Van Exel, Cebaros, Zhang Mao, Bison, Campbell.

The supersonic lineup is: Payton, McMillan, Vincent, Perkins, Brickkowski.

There are a lot of gaps between the two lineups, the Lakers resolutely play fast break and strengthen the attack under the basket, Zhang Fu relied on the breakthrough to score 4 points in a row, and narrowed the gap to 10 points in a blink of an eye, so frightened that the SuperSonics hurriedly asked for a timeout.

"It's not good!"

"Do they think?"

"Do they want to?"

"Shall we be?"

“……”

At this time, the unstable mentality has become the supersonic side, and the entire key arena is filled with a breathless pressure, and even the fans have become nervous, and this rhythm makes them feel the crisis of turning the tables.

George Carr felt that he was going to collapse, so he could only replace the main force in advance, even if they had no strength, they had to hold on to win this game. Once he was overturned with a lead of more than 20 points at home, he didn't dare to imagine how to play in the next games, the player's mentality would definitely collapse, and he couldn't imagine how the Lakers' morale would rise.

The decisive battle started early, and the superSonics did not choose to consolidate the defense, but continued to attack against attack.

George Karl is very shrewd, the supersonic are good at single defense and interior defense, this kind of defense relies on physical strength, and now this situation is obviously not suitable for defending, they can't defend at all, they can only attack.

Camp didn't know if he heard someone say that he was not physically good, and after coming on the court, he caused a foul on Bisson's head on the first offense, and after hitting both free throws, he helped the SuperSonics stabilize their position, and he has scored 30 points at this point.

Veteran McMillan also stepped up at a crucial moment, and after he hit a three-pointer, the SuperSonics turned the score to 78-93.

As soon as the Lakers saw hope, they realized that the hole dug in the first half was too big, and as long as they didn't score in one or two rounds, the opponent could re-widen the margin to a point where their confidence was frustrated.

They won't be so mentally exploding, but at this time, it is inevitable to think that if they were a few points behind in the first half, it would not be so difficult to chase now.

The five points scored by the SuperSonics were very important, not only stabilizing their mentality, but also stopping the Lakers' soaring morale.

After that, the two sides began a tug-of-war again, but the situation began to tilt in favor of supersound, after all, the advantage of the other side is large enough, and the margin for error is much higher than theirs.

With 8:23 left in the fourth quarter, Campbell and Cebaroz hit the basket one after another, and the Lakers chased the score to 84:95.

But Payton made a contribution at the crucial moment, he first hit the ball through the gap, Hawkins followed up, and scored a layup after receiving the ball. Immediately after that, Payton himself took charge of the mid-range shot, and the SuperSonics also scored 4 points in a row to regain the advantage of 99:84. Payton's pass and shot are already a bit of an MVP.

In the next few minutes, both teams' efficient offenses entered a period of shock and downturn, Zhang used his individual ability to give the Lakers a little advantage, and when it came to 3:03, the Lakers changed the score to 93:104, but there was little hope of turning defeat into victory, unless the SuperSonics made a mistake themselves.

In the last three minutes, Kemp, who had slipped to the danger line, made an offensive foul and dropped the ball to give the Lakers a chance, and the gap was narrowed to 9 points again.

At the critical moment, it was Payton's brilliant defense that made Van Exel also make a mistake, and when the latter broke through, Payton cut the ball off in advance.

The shot was the winner, with the SuperSonics launching a fast break, and after a couple of reverses, Hawkins hit a three-pointer from the right unmarked on the right, and the SuperSonics extended their advantage back to 12 points with 1:52 left in the game.

Zhang Qi was helpless, but he couldn't complain about anything.

Van Exel's face Payton was about to be suppressed, this kind of mistake is indispensable, it can only be said that they fell behind too much in the first half, and it is really difficult to get back 23 points against a top team like SuperSonic, or away in the Western Conference finals.

After the Lakers called a timeout, Zhang Qi didn't score three points, and the Lakers could only use foul tactics in advance.

Although Kemp ran out of energy, he still made steady free throws, and made two more free throws, and the Lakers trailed by 14 points with 1:35 left in the game, and this time they were powerless.
