Chapter 381: A New Goal

Mike Brown found a bad situation at halftime, three games in four days caused Kobe Bryant's physical problems, the team doctor suggested that Kobe Bryant's playing time be reduced in the second half, after Bynum had relapsed in the hell mode of three games in three days, fortunately the injury was not serious to make the Lakers breathe a sigh of relief, but this also sounded the alarm bell for the Lakers. Pen %Fun %Pavilion www.biquge.info and Kobe Bryant's age can't really treat him as an iron man, and once something goes wrong, he can't regret it.

However, everyone ignores that there is another person in the Lakers team whose physical strength has also encountered a crisis, although Xiao Si did not score many points in the first half, but he ran a lot in order to get rid of the defense, and he did not contribute in four days and three games, in terms of physical risks, Bynum may not be able to be more serious than Xiao Si, and they are a pair of knees that have all undergone minimally invasive surgery!

But apparently not many people care whether Xiao Si is dead or alive, and this Lakers team has been compared to the Knicks in the team atmosphere. At the moment, compared to the sweat in the home team's dressing room, a group of people are not willing to even bother to speak, and the atmosphere in the away team's dressing room is much more vibrant and energetic.

Gasol, who scored 25 points in the first half, didn't feel too tired, on the contrary, he felt like he had never been so hearty on the offensive end, and although his shooting percentage slipped a little in the second half of the second quarter, he had already figured out how to deal with the Lakers' bag, and he was familiar with these people.

Wu Huang knew that Gasol's softness was actually a kind of protection for himself, and he didn't have a top-level physical fitness. Bynum's physical fitness is more prominent, and he is not injured every three or five times, and there are players in the NBA who have the ability to harden and are not easy to get injured, there are so many to count, Gasol knows that he is never among them, so what is soft, and living long is the last word.

Lakers players also know this, and it's easy to do on the offensive end, Gasol is easy to score when he is soft defensively, but his softness on the offensive end will also make opponents easy to foul.

After the start of the second half, Ibanks, a rookie, didn't know how powerful Gasol was, and sent the Spaniard to the free throw line as soon as he came up.

Gasol not only kills, but also kills acquaintances!

Artest also committed a foul on Gasol soon after, and his bag did not let Gasol back down, and the Spaniard was very tough to play a 2+1 under the double defense of Xiao Si and Artest.

"I should let you know it's awesome!" Gasol yelled after scoring a goal, and he usually wouldn't say such domineering words, but not long after the start of the third quarter, he got the 30th point, which made the sister-in-law, who has always been emotionally restrained, can't help but be passionate, and he wants to vent all the grievances he has suffered in the past four years in this game.

Gasol's state of passion is actually related to Emperor Wu, and he is not bad at sowing discord!

At halftime, Wu Huang provoked Gasol next to him: "Paul, we all know how much you have been wronged by the Lakers, but you are no longer playing in Los Angeles, and you need a baptism to welcome a new life." Then he continued to flicker: "Today we will do our best to help you complete this ceremony, you don't need to show mercy, this will be your private party, go to the party!" ”

Wu Huang is really a bit like the leader of a cult organization, he flickered in the middle of the court and made Gasol slowly feel that he was really wronged, he must let Lakers fans see his true strength today, and he must make them regret trading him.

But in reality, if he doesn't come to the Lakers, it could still be the Grizzlies continue to fight for their first playoff win. Those two rings are already the best reward for all his efforts, isn't it just to occasionally carry a pot for nagging, just ask which giant's second boss doesn't take the blame, he is a fart grievance.

But Gasol, who has entered a state of revenge, is getting more and more courageous, and the boos of Lakers fans have become the motivation for him to score more points, and slowly he is no longer playing against Xiaosi, and now he is going to defeat Kobe Bryant, who has been fighting against him. And under the flickering of Emperor Wu, Gasol has almost regarded himself as a thigh, and without him Kobe, where will he be the champion.

However, the power of the boss under the madness is not something Gasol can resist, in the 4th minute and 58 seconds, when Gasol stepped forward to block Kobe's breakthrough, he never expected Kobe to slow down at all, and flew directly at him!? =

"Is he ......?" Gasol had just had a vague idea in his head, and Kobe Bryant had already made him pay for his toughness.

This may be the last madness of the boss before his physical strength is exhausted, and the old wingers, who almost used the power of the wilderness, with a determination that no one expected, flew over the rarely hard Gasol, and the Spaniard fell out of the bottom line in embarrassment at the moment like being overtaken by a red-eyed bull.

"Damn, is the boss still so good at this age?" Wu Huang was frightened on the side, he couldn't believe that Kobe, who was about to be 34 years old, could still complete such a domineering goal, this is a move that James can make, but the boss actually staged a James-style shocking dunk in the hell mode of four days and three games!

"I thought about it, because it was my sister-in-law who was defending him!" Wu Huang's brain is big enough, he didn't go to help his ravaged sister-in-law in the first place, but stood in place and made a sudden realization expression, which made the fans who had been stunned by Kobe Bryant's violent dunk in front of the TV even more confused.

"Defensive foul?!" After Gasol fell to the ground, he was able to avoid the injury with his soft body, but after seeing the referee's decision, Gasol, who has always been angry, couldn't help but feel angry. "How can this ball be a defensive foul?! I've secured my position early and it's an offensive foul! ”

The referee faced Gasol, who rushed in front of him and made a gaffe, and said patiently: "Don't worry, I think it's a defensive foul, but I'll watch the replay again to make sure, and now stand aside." ”

Emperor Wu was shocked again, he heard it right, right? The referee is so good at talking?

Kobe Bryant also showed an unbelievable look on his tired face, when did the referee in this league talk so well?

"I think he's discriminating against you, you should come up and protest." Wu Huang quickly provoked next to Kobe.

"Don't get close to me, I'm not familiar with you!" Kobe Bryant doesn't eat this set, he is not familiar with Emperor Wu now, it is like cooking him.

Emperor Wu didn't care at all, and continued: "Your physical strength should be exhausted, right? I advise you not to work so hard, you are not young anymore, once you are injured at this age, it will be all over. So for the sake of your fans, I suggest you cut back on your playing time because you're not called Michael Jordan. "Half of him is from the heart, and the other half is naked ill-intentioned. And even after Wu Huang himself finished speaking, he couldn't figure it out, what did he want Kobe Bryant to do without getting hurt? Or do you want to use agitation to increase his chances of getting hurt?

Kobe Bryant has always had little resistance to the agitation method, and there are not many black players who are as cunning as Paul, most of them are masters who know that there are tigers in the mountains and prefer tigers, and Kobe Bryant is a typical example of this.

But the problem is that the Lakers' schedule is too difficult, and the 30-year-old Kobe Bryant may be able to roll twice to get through, but the 34-year-old Kobe Bryant can't disagree with the old, just when the referee upheld the original decision, Mike Brown decided to replace the nagging down and rest for a while, and when the fourth quarter continued to him, the boss never got up again, and the entire Staples Arena was instantly silent.

This offense is another typical one-on-one tactic for the Lakers this season, the basketball court is symbolically passed to the side in the hands of the outside players, and then accurately returned to the boss, and the only effect of this transfer is to make the Knicks' defense a switch, and finally Tony Allen to defend Kobe Bryant to Battier to defend.

But it's also a loss to Battier to defend this goal, Allen has been with Wu Huang for a long time, and the originally clean defense has also been stained black, he is already good at death entanglement, and now he will come from time to time to do some stepping feet, elbows and other actions to do things, in the face of Kobe Bryant who hit the street, he will not be bad if he doesn't work hard, but Battier's defense has been relatively clean, this ball was caused by the boss's physical exhaustion After hitting the street, Battier also kindly helped him, only letting the boss kneel on the ground on one knee.

Black bread is already scared to pee on the sidelines, anyone in the Lakers team can be injured, but only Kobe Bryant must not be injured, otherwise who will be behind him?!

Kobe Bryant's face looked very painful, but Wu Huang was skeptical, he saw Battier helping him, so he shouldn't be injured and couldn't get up, right? And Wu Huang, who has excellent acting skills, always feels that the painful expression on Kobe's face is a little unnatural?

The boss's acting skills are really not good, but he knows that Vanessa is watching this game at the moment, which will make him physically exhausted and his ankle is indeed twisted, so Kobe Bryant clearly knows that he can't play today, so it is better to simply show his acting skills Bobo sympathy, saving his marriage has become a matter of equal importance to the boss and basketball.

So the unwitting Lakers fans watched with a heartbroken look at Kobe Bryant being carried off the stretcher, and then the entire Knicks team was cordially greeted by the angry Los Angeles fans, including Battier, who helped him before, and the space Yi, who sat on the court and guarded the water dispenser, and was sprayed by the Lakers fans who hadn't even played for a minute.

"Hey, why didn't you scold me?" Wu Huang expressed his surprise, of course, it wasn't that no one scolded him, but the voice of scolding him in the Staples Arena was much quieter than others, which was worth pondering.

Looking at his own stats - 6 points, 3 rebounds and 13 assists, Wu Huang directly ignored his assists, and his score now needs to be increased, otherwise the record of scoring in a single game in his career has never been lower than double digits will be obsolete, which is much more important than letting Gasol break his own scoring record.

Kobe's injury has greatly reduced the morale of the Lakers, and the cruel schedule has also exhausted the Lakers, so after the fourth quarter, except for a few tricks that have not had the opportunity to play, most of the main players of the Lakers can't keep up, even if they are still one point ahead of the Knicks at 77:76 at the moment, but the Knicks in the fourth quarter will definitely launch a counterattack.

Wu Huang's 6 points, 3 rebounds and 13 assists today are certainly very eye-catching, but Gasol's 38 points, 9 rebounds and 1 assist are even more amazing, and now the Spaniards are only 7 points away from breaking their career scoring record, the Knicks score is still behind, and Gasol will inevitably play in the fourth quarter, and he has great hope of breaking the scoring record today.

D'Antoni replaced Wu Huang and Gasol together after Kobe Bryant went off, and he also needs to control the playing time of these two, don't look at the Knicks are the team with the best schedule in the league, but that's relatively speaking, how good can the schedule of this shortened season be?

In the fourth quarter, Wu Huang was sent first, he had plenty of physical reserves, and at the same time, he took the initiative to ask to lead the bench lineup to chase points.

D'Antoni hesitated slightly, and simply replaced the rotation lineup of Wu Huang, Tony Allen, Gallinari, Space Yi, and Monroe in the fourth quarter, which was the first time Space Easy played for the Knicks in the regular season.

Chinese fans instantly became excited, and Space Yi is still being portrayed as an international player with no talent in China at the moment, and many people feel that his ability is not under Monroe.

Of course, Emperor Wu would not think so, but this did not affect him to take extra care of his compatriots.

At the beginning of the final quarter, he first managed to score two points with a breakaway, and then assisted Space Yi to cut along the baseline and perform a two-handed dunk.

"Beautiful!" Wu Huang stepped forward and slapped the space easy, the latter cut very fast this time, and the jump and dunk after receiving the ball were also done in one go, making full use of his flexibility, speed and relatively good bounce, these three points are what he is better than Monroe.

This combination is also a trick that Wu Huang asked Space Easy to practice, the latter can shoot mid-range in the two low posts and on the wing, but it is not enough to shoot just standing like this, so Wu Huang asked Space Yi to find an opportunity to cut into the basket without the ball to look for scoring opportunities.

The Knicks have had to increase the frequency of off-ball cuts this season, and they have so many players who can pass through the air that it would be a waste not to take advantage of them.

Space Yi is already a small player in the NBA at the moment, so there will be no one to target him for cutting and running off the ball, which will make it easier for him to find scoring opportunities. But the premise is that someone feeds him the ball, Wu Huang will naturally not let Space Yi run repeatedly, this ball also makes him more satisfied, if Space Yi plays at a normal level, it is also a good tool for brushing assists.

The Lakers obviously couldn't withstand the Knicks' offense after losing Kobe Bryant in the fourth quarter, and Wu Huang quickly completed his scoring task outside the three-point line, and then put aside the idea of scoring and concentrated on feeding his teammates, which was his main task today.

Everyone knows that Wu Huang must get more than ten points per game, and Wu Huang himself does not deny this, he will not let this kind of milestone end, and no team feels that he can let Wu Huang not get ten points in a game. Although many players want to destroy this milestone of Wu Huang in their hearts, no one has succeeded so far.

Gasol was substituted at 6:55 in the fourth quarter, by which time the Knicks had already overtaken the Lakers by 5 points and regained control of the situation, and the advantage brought to them by the schedule was infinitely magnified in this game, and Kobe Bryant could not resist the Knicks' counterattack even if he was still on the court.

Knicks fans have said: "Back-to-back on the road can still dominate the schedule, what kind of schedule is this? ”

Gasol hit a shot at the free-throw line immediately after coming on the court, and O'Neal, a typical "coach blow" in the T-N-T live broadcast room, immediately spoke: "Hugo's breakthrough has captured the full attention of Blake and McRoberts, all Gasol has to do is hit the ball." If he doesn't get a high score in this output environment, I should suggest that he delete the game. ”

"Damn, you dare to shoot my sycophants!" Barkley was furious and glanced at O'Neill.

It's not pleasing to look at O'Neill now, it's better if you look at it like this, who told this bastard to come t-n-t and not do anything else in the future, and rush to shoot Emperor Wu's ass with him all day long, it's really annoying!

Lakers fans have already started to leave the court early, and they don't want to watch Gasol beat them while breaking the scoring record.

At this time, no one pays attention to Xiao Si anymore, maybe it's a good thing to lose too badly, many people have forgotten what the original tone of this game was? It was supposed to be a showdown between these two involuntary stars, but at the moment it has become a one-man show for Gasol, and the Spanish fans are the happiest at this moment.

At 2:11, when Gasol scored the 46th point with two free throws, the entire Staples Arena was nearly half empty, and the remaining fans were leaving the stadium in an orderly manner.

At this moment, the score on the scoreboard is 95:86, Lakers fans chose to give up in advance, although the score difference is not big, but the Lakers have been completely suppressed on the field, Kobe Bryant's life and death are uncertain, Bynum is injured, and only a Xiao Si who is also powerless is left to resist stubbornly, how can they turn defeat into victory?

D'Antoni did not give Gasol a chance to continue to impact 50+, the Spaniards will have softened into noodles because of physical problems, the Lakers have been defending against Gasol throughout the game, and it was thanks to Wu Huang's breakthrough that he shared the pressure for him, otherwise Gasol would not have been able to score 40+ points at all.

The Knicks couldn't take a double-digit lead in the fourth quarter when they bullied the Lakers without Kobe and Bynum, also because Gasol was severely inefficient on offense after his physical acumen dropped, and he only shot 2-of-6 in the quarter.

Wu Huang felt that he would not be worse than Gasol in the last quarter when he fed the ball to Space Yi like this, and the Spaniard also knew that he could break the record all thanks to Wu Huang supporting him in the back, so naturally he did not have to continue to impact 50+ thoughts, and after D'Antoni replaced him, he was relieved.

"I'm tired to death!" Wu Huang felt that he consumed more physical strength than Gasol, and he didn't know how many times he had a chance to shoot in this game, but he had to pass the ball back to Gasol in one more move.

So O'Neill's comment is not unreasonable, and if it were Xiao Si, he might have cut 50+.

Xiao Si was also replaced, and he could feel a feeling of soreness in his knees after the game, such a schedule was too much wear and tear on his knees, especially today when he ran at the expense of physical strength, which made his knees have reached a certain critical point.

Wu Huang is very satisfied with his gains, the data of 11 points, 4 rebounds and 18 assists in the game made him begin to think about the honor of "assist king". At the same time, he does not intend to give up the title of "scoring champion", and this shortened season will be a great opportunity for him to win the scoring title, assist leader and steals title.

"I don't think anyone has ever won all three of these honors in a season, right?" Wu Huang secretly thought that it was already a magical performance that he had not encountered in ten years when he won both the scoring and stealing king last season, and if he added another assist king this year, it would be a miraculous performance.

Emperor Wu knew the difficulty of this idea, but he just wanted to complete such a miracle to continue to improve his status, and the charm of sports is precisely to constantly challenge those seemingly impossible peaks.

In the end, the Knicks relied on Kobe's injury to get this back-to-back victory, in addition to Wu Huang and Gasol brushing up the data, David West also contributed 9 points, 6 rebounds and 3 assists today, Iguodala 13 points, 4 rebounds and 4 assists, Gallinari 8 points, and even Space Yi got 6 points and 1 rebound on 3 of 3 shots under Wu Huang's several feeds.

'We were in better shape and that's why we won in the end.' Wu Huang lowered his profile a lot after the game, and Gasol, who broke his personal scoring record, was the focus after the game.

"I'm very happy that I can still perform like this, and I'm lucky that I can still play like this." Gasol said after the game, "I had two 40+ games before and we lost. Actually, I don't usually like the phenomenon of one player cutting a lot of points, because it takes away the rhythm of other players. But I'm happy that my score today will give the team a win. ”

After the game, a reporter naturally asked Gasol if he felt that after such a game, his statistics needed to be improved? Especially when it comes to scoring.

Gasol hurriedly said: "It just happened and my teammates gave me a lot of support. As soon as you score a few goals, your team-mates notice that you're getting into the rhythm, like today when it was my turn and it was going to be another player in another game. Gasol knows why he gets high scores, and he doesn't expect to always have the support of the whole team, so one game is enough to be his masterpiece.

The purpose of the Knicks' game is mainly to make Gasol majestic in front of his old club, don't you always say "the tree is dead, the person is alive", I believe that seeing Gasol now alive in the Knicks, the Lakers' management may have some feelings. At least they won't feel like they're making a big deal, and Gasol will be quick to get back to the game and the Knicks' locker room will be more united. (To be continued.) )
