Chapter 59: The True Colors of the Killer
"His wounds...... It turned out to be good! Phil-Jackson looked at the moment Peja stood up, his face was gloomy as if it was about to rain, and he knew that he was being put in a position by Adelman in front of him.
In recent games, Peja has always participated in the team, and has always worn sportswear, and has not sat on the sidelines in a suit, on the 12-man squad, Adelman has always written Peja's name, but everyone knows that Peja is injured and can't play, but just today, in the key battle of the fifth game, Peja made a magical comeback.
Seeing Peja standing on the sidelines, Phil Jackson felt his heart racing.
"Peja ......" looked at Peja in front of him, Jiang Yang of course had some impressions of Peja, but Jiang Yang's initial impression of Peja was that when he was a hitter for Paul on the Hornets, his shooting was really good, but there seems to be nothing other than this, why did everyone look at the Serb who was warming up on the sidelines with a bitter face (he was originally a Yugoslav, but everyone knows that Yugoslavia was ~ hehe, so he is now a Servie).
This is the reason why Jiang Yang is a fake fan, the current Peja is the most powerful Peja, this is also the most brilliant time of his career, this year he just won the league's three-point king, although he has not entered the All-Star Game, it is completely because of his popularity, but his level is not bad, 2002 2003 two-time three-point contest MVP, 2004 NBA regular season lineup second team, these honors are enough to show how strong Peja is now!
In terms of pure shooting skills on the outside, it is definitely not an exaggeration to say that he is the first person on the outside now!
This is the strongest lineup of the Kings team at present, with a big heart on the point guard, a quasi-All-Star level player who can pass, shoot and connect, the White Devils! Mike Bibby! The shooting guard is now one of the best defensive players in the league, Christie, the league's steal leader in the regular season in 2002, forced Kobe Bryant to shoot just over 30 percent in his first two games.
On the small forward, there is now the league's No. 1 outside scorer, Peja Stojakovic, and scoring goals is easier than not scoring.
In the position of power forward, there is now the league's most comprehensive, super power forward Chris Webb, and his combat effectiveness has skyrocketed.
In the center position, there are also old and strong, experience, height, and can also compare with the sharks in their heyday, Divac, and on the bench is also Super Sixth Man Bobby Jackson, Turkish teenager Tekoglu!
Such a Kings team, at least in the lineup, is composed of the Lakers team, some people say that the Lakers won the King, completely because of the referee's release of water, it seems that it is not unreasonable, the current King is really too strong.
"Something is not going to be good! Now that he's just coming up, try to pull the score away! Seeing Peja raise his hand to signal that he was going to play, the Lakers players all looked at each other, and they were all tied up with the Kings who didn't have Peja.
Now that Peja is going to play, their chances of winning are getting slimmer......
Kobe Bryant glanced at O'Neal, neither of them is the kind of person who gives up easily, although they saw Peja playing, but the two were still not afraid, after exchanging glances, the Lakers began to start again, and Peja, who had just come on the court, just found a feeling and did not score, and the Lakers also followed their own will, leading the Kings strongly in the final period of the first quarter, stretching the score to 33-27, leading by six points into the second quarter!
After the start of the second quarter, the Kings began to chase the pace, first Bobby Jackson shot, then Mike Bibby also shot, Peja is not the pure three-point shot at this time, he can still break through.
After breaking through to the inside, he caused a foul by Rick Fox and made two free throws, and the Kings scored seven straight points.
If it hadn't been for Rick Fox, who hit a three-pointer, the Kings would have turned the score around.
And this time did not make the Kings fans wait any longer, with Webb and Bobby Jackson making layups one after another, the Kings managed to overtake the score, and in the first half of the second quarter, the Lakers played extremely ugly.
Probably because of Peja's comeback, the Lakers' bench players are now in a mess.
In addition to Rick Fox's three-pointer, the Lakers only scored one point in the half, and the Kings made an 11-4 small ** in one fell swoop, and then Kobe Bryant came on the court and missed two scoring opportunities in a row.
On the Kings' side, the big-hearted Mike Bibby would not give the Lakers such a chance, and hit a simple step-back jumper in front of the small fish, and Divac deceived the Sharks again, made a successful foul, and hit two free throws.
With 3:38 left in the second quarter, the Kings had a five-point lead over the Lakers at 44-39.
And after that, the only main point of attack fell to Kobe, Kobe Bryant played a miracle again, after hitting the shot, he hit the inside line again and scored three points, even so, he had no way to narrow the score, he could only bite the king tightly.
After the halftime peso, the Lakers still trailed the Kings by five points at 46-51, and the Lakers created a new low of their own in this quarter, scoring only 13 points in the whole quarter.
Looking at this situation, Phil Jackson's face became more and more ugly, while Adelman's face slowly rose, and after halftime, Adelman couldn't help but laugh when he saw Jiang Yang still sitting next to Phil Jackson.
Looking at Phil Jackson in the distance, Adelman pointed to Jiang Yang next to him and shrugged his shoulders, what he meant was to tell Phil Jackson, your X factor is not good, it doesn't matter what happens, this is the suppression of strength.
Originally, Jiang Yang wanted to reply with two sentences, but Phil Jackson stopped him, and now Phil Jackson's face is like the eve of a storm, black and depressing, and terrifying!
"Coach, if you want me on, I can do it too!" Looking at Phil Jackson's face, Jiang Yang said tentatively, but Phil Jackson just shook his head and refused Jiang Yang's request to take the initiative to invite Ying into battle.
"It's not time yet!" Hearing Phil Jackson's words, Jiang Yang could only sit there honestly and watch the game.
At the beginning of the third quarter, the Kings' offense was still strong, and in the first four minutes of the third quarter, the Kings successfully pulled the score to as much as ten. This person is none other than the current boss of the team, the Sharks, Shaquille O'Neal, who stood up at a critical moment and began to make a splash! He first made a dunk to boost the Lakers' morale, then Kobe Bryant rushed into the interior to make a foul, two free throws and two hits, O'Neal dunked twice in a row plus a simple step-back jumper, with 3 minutes and 44 seconds left in the third quarter, the fat O'Neal spared no effort to help the Lakers chase the score to 68-69, and then Mike Bibby and Tecokru once again stretched the score to five points, but O'Neal was already crazy at this time.
He doesn't care about keeping his physical strength at all, he knows that if he still has physical strength now, then he doesn't know if he has a chance to play the fourth quarter, after two consecutive dunks, the Lakers started a dunk contest, and countless players hope to jump up and dunk each other as long as they get to the opponent's half!
These dunks made the Kings a little difficult to handle, and also disrupted the original Adelman deployment and disrupted the rhythm of the Kings.
At the end of the third quarter, the Lakers miraculously did not get rid of the Kings, but took another one-point lead at 74-73! At the beginning of the fourth quarter of the game, the two sides were in a state of stalemate, one on one side and one on the other.
The score has been alternating leads, and both the Lakers and the Kings are going crazy! But there is also a calm person in this game, as a three-point shooter, an assassin, and a killer, Peja has always been calm.
When the game was about to end with 2:07 left in the game, the calm killer made a move, a simple shooting feint, shook off Rick Fox, and went straight to the inside, and O'Neal, who came to make up for the defense, had already committed five fouls at this time.
If the opponent is a defender, then Peja may not be easy to rely on, but the guy in front of him is a well-known big man in the league, and it is very simple to rely on him, although O'Neal has let it, but Peja still relies on O'Neal to throw the ball out, "brush" and "beep" two consecutive sounds, the sound of brushing is the sound of Peja's hit, and the beep is the sound of O'Neal's foul, six fouls! O'Neill raised his big hand, with a helpless expression, he knew that the situation was not good! At this time, Phil Jackson, who was sitting on the sidelines, also stood up and patted Jiang Yang's shoulder at the same time.
"Jiang, it's time to play!" Looking at Jiang Yang's puzzled look, Phil Jackson actually showed a weird smile.
