After head coach Chu Xuan complained about the referee's blowing penalty, the game entered a white heat, and the physical confrontation between the players on both sides became more intense. The difference is that the Lakers have not lost their offensive rhythm because of this, and their teamwork and player movement are still very commendable.

As for the Thunder team, it is still Dewey and the second less are working alone, but what has to be accepted is that the ability of the second young man can only be described as a pervert, and the Lakers are still suppressed by them. ”

After introducing the game, Barkley, who was in charge of the live broadcast, talked about his thoughts on the game.

"The current score is very favorable to the Thunder, and the two young people feel very good. Although their role players seem to be sleepwalking completely, it has to be said that as long as the second is there, the Thunder have a chance to win this game. Of course, there is hope for the Lakers, and that is that Kobe Bryant will find his offensive touch. However, Kobe Bryant's offense today was really terrible.

As things stand, the Lakers won't be able to win this series, and the Lakers have too few people available on the outside. Chu Xuan can only rely on the 36-year-old Kobe, which makes it difficult for them to take the initiative in this confrontation. I think going into the fourth quarter, the Thunder will come up with a wave of attacks and then take away this win and eliminate the Lakers. ”

Barkley's prediction is not unfounded, and the Lakers today can only rely on a few players on the inside. On the outside, there are no players who can play a role in turning the tide.

Moreover, according to the experience of the previous games, if the Lakers and the Thunder are stalemate to the end, the Lakers will have no one available at the critical moment, and the Thunder will eventually end the game.

Therefore, for the Lakers, if they can't ensure a little advantage, then they will undoubtedly be in a desperate situation in this game.

……

"We have to focus on the inside, pay more attention to the inside and play inside, and force them to shrink the defense, so that we can win offensive opportunities for our outside line."

After the start of the fourth quarter of the game, Chu Xuan's tactical arrangement was very clear, that is, to use the inside pressure to win the offensive space for the outside.

What makes people feel happy is that the tactical execution of the players on the court is very good, Green and Gasol are on the court at the same time, and the blocking and playing style of both sides give great offensive opportunities in other positions.

Knoll was the first player to perform, but, four minutes into the fourth quarter, Knoll was fouled for six fouls. In the end, his individual playing time was fixed at 19 minutes and 22 seconds, which is very unbelievable.

Although Knoll contributed 18 points and 5 rebounds in such a limited time. However, watching from the sidelines at the decisive moment undoubtedly made him very painful and sad.

"Damn, it's simply unforgivable. I hate the feeling of being able to just watch the game at key moments, it's really powerless. ”

Knoll held his head in his hands, with a depressed and frustrated face, which was the mood he had the most in this game.

When Chu Xuan saw his appearance, he couldn't help but shake his head and sigh helplessly. He can understand Knoll's fighting spirit and aggressiveness, and he knows he doesn't want to leave the pitch. But there was no way, and today's game seemed to be aimed at him. However, Chu Xuan felt that it was not necessarily a good thing for Noel to have such a thing happening, and he could completely think about how to avoid fouls and get to know this alliance at a deeper level. This will undoubtedly be of great benefit to his future growth.

……

Both sides were resolute in attack and both were efficient.

Midway through the game, the Lakers relied on Jeremy Lin's stunning two three-pointers to take a seven-point lead. It was very suddenly, and Jeremy Lin instantly became a hero in the hearts of Lakers fans.

After that, the Lakers held on to the lead, and until the final 2 minutes of the game, the Lakers still led by 6 points.

A 6-point lead is not too much, but not too much.

And for the Thunder, it's clear that someone needs to step up and score.

Soon, Durant faced the defense and hit a three-pointer to narrow the gap to three.

Such a powerful scene is really rare in this round of the series.

Thunder fans immediately shouted MVP and cheered for Durant.

Then, it was the Lakers' turn to attack, Jackson was blocked by Westbrook under the strong basket, and then the Thunder launched a counterattack, and Durant made a long pass to assist Lamb for a dunk.

……

The difference narrowed to 1 point in the blink of an eye, and the time was only 49 seconds later.

Looking at the score of 107:106, with 1 minute 08 seconds left, Chu Xuan immediately chose to pause.

"Don't be nervous, take it easy and be patient. Guys, we're definitely going to be able to get the ball done, spin the ball a lot, and score as close to the basket as possible. ”

The atmosphere at the scene was very hot, the thunder was imposing, and the Lakers were suddenly shrouded in thick pressure.

Chu Xuan's heart was beating extremely fast, obviously, he was not a saint, and at this time, he was just as nervous as the players. However, he doesn't show his nervousness.

Because he understands that if the manager is nervous at this time, then how can the players remain calm.

"Cover Kobe Bryant and give him a chance to score in the low post. However, be careful to open up space for him and not let your opponent form a bag. ”

Chu Xuan shouted loudly, and then motioned to the players to look at the tactical board.

……

"Kobe, with the help of Gasol's pick-and-roll, shook off Durant.

Misplaced back-to-back singles Jerry Milan, with excellent footwork for continuous movement, the iconic back-to-back jumper, there you have!

Kobe, very critical offense! Here's your chance for the Lakers! ”

In a burst of unwilling boos from the fans, the score jumped, and the Lakers 109:106 Thunder.

After the goal, Kobe Bryant couldn't help but wave his hand, with a relieved expression. It was his second all-time goal of the game, and so far he has scored just six points.

Really, Kobe Bryant is under a lot of pressure, he is very competitive, and he can't accept not shooting in such a crucial game.

But now, with a mid-range jumper, Kobe's inner discomfort and entanglement have finally come to an end.

At this time, Kobe Bryant's individual performance on the big screen appeared.

6 points, 8 assists and 3 rebounds, 11 shots, 2 shots.

Judging from the data, Kobe's individual offense is indeed very bad.

However, at the critical moment, he suddenly scored, and the Thunder immediately showed their attention.

Brooks is a cautious coach, and at no time will he ignore Kobe's presence.

With 48 seconds left and the Lakers leading by three points, the Thunder's next offense will be very crucial, how will the game go?

48 seconds, is it a tie-break or an outbreak? (To be continued.) )
