Chapter 142: Hitting people in the face

After tossing and turning for half of the game, Stan Van Gundy still didn't come up with any good solutions, even if he could already imagine how the media would criticize his incompetence after the game, he still had to let the Magic continue to play as before.

At 44:58, the Monster scored 19 points and 7 rebounds in the half, but the shooting rate of 51 was obviously not his normal level. And Mr. Chaosheng also understands that in the current situation, it is the best choice for him to shoot, and if someone else comes, the hit rate is not so high!

As for Mr. 100 million yuan, who was pinned on by Orlando before the game, the first half of the game was a double day of ice and fire, before the old monk was replaced, Lewis scored 9 points in 4 of 5 shots, and the high shooting rate was terrible, but after Odom came on the court, this guy completely changed its appearance.

3 shots, 1 in 2 errors, and an annual salary of 20 million, such a comparison made the Magic swallow Lewis's heart, but if you think about it carefully, everyone can understand, after all, you can't blame him for not playing well.

Lewis has proven the continuation of his touch against Gasol before, but sometimes it doesn't feel good enough to solve everything. If it weren't for Odom's defensive being too difficult and the other positions he couldn't play, Lewis wouldn't have been so sad.

Taking a step back, the Magic was able to enter the door of the finals, and a large part of it relied on Lewis's convulsions, drinking water and not forgetting to dig wells, and Magic fans decided to give Mr. 100 million yuan some more chances.

The fans' leniency worked, and after half-time, Lewis, who was back on the court, took advantage of Odom's break to play two beautiful attacks in a row, and Gasol had not been able to recover from the habitual thinking of defending monsters, and he focused more on the inside card position, leaving a chance for the opponent for a while.

The power of two three-pointers is huge, the Lakers' previous 14-point advantage suddenly narrowed to 8 points, as in previous series, whenever the team is behind, the three-point will always become a sharp weapon for the Magic to chase points, and Lewis is the sharpest knife among them.

The Lakers' offense missed again, and the halftime break made everyone's hands drop a little, and Ariza missed a layup, and the force was slightly greater, causing the basketball to slide directly off the basket, and the long-awaited monster unceremoniously bagged the rebound.

Aggro! The Magic players executed their tactics very well, and Howard went straight to Nelson after grabbing the rebound. Although he was not in good shape due to injury, his consciousness would not change, and Nelson received the ball and ran towards the Lakers half without hesitation.

The Lakers' defense is quite active, and the one who runs at the front is Ariza, who is already close to Nelson who is in possession of the ball, and Kobe Bryant and Li Chen are not slow, and the two are ready to cut off Nelson's passing route at any time.

Ball! Howard, who went out of nowhere, disrupted the Lakers' plans. The momentum of the monster that rose into the air completely overshadowed the other players on the field, and at this moment, he was the only one flying.

Mr. Chaosheng's physique made others make a way for him to be amused, although Li Chen felt that he had a chance to catch the ball before his opponent, but the price he paid for this was to be hit by Howard from behind, and after weighing the pros and cons, he was very smart not to spoil Howard's performance opportunity.

Like a divine soldier descending from the sky, Howard, who was flying in the air, completed the whole set of actions of catching the ball and dunking, and the basket creaked under his great force. After the successful performance, the monster didn't seem to be reconciled, and made a pull-up with the basket, and then kissed the basket, and it can be seen that the blow to him in the first half was a bit big.

If today's game had been at Amway Arena in Orlando, Howard's move might not have been anything. But because it's in the Staples Center, the problem arises.

Seeing that Howard seemed to be leaning on the basket and didn't want to get down, especially then making a disgusting gesture like kissing the basket, the referee on duty did not hesitate to give the monster a technical foul, and the Lakers got a free throw.

"Sir, I didn't mean to, it's just a simple celebration!" The monster who was still domineering just now instantly turned into a docile domestic cat because of the referee's decision, and he was begging the other party to take back that technical foul!

The Lakers players are gloating on the side, and the arrogant celebration of the monster makes this willing and arrogant guy very unhappy, and they are always the only ones who are rampant and domineering on someone else's home court, when is it the turn of outsiders to show off their power on their home court, they raised their hands in favor of the referee's decision.

Sure enough, with the support of the home fans, the referee did not care about Howard's identity, and he stuck to his decision. If he doesn't give up, he's ready to use his zero-tolerance rights.

The demonic beast shook its hands away stupidly, and the momentum that had been brought up suddenly lost most of it because of this accident. Bryant, who made a free throw, scored the ball, and it was the Lakers' offensive round next. The Lakers, who have missed several times, believe that they should learn from the experience this time, and playing steadily is the most important criterion they should keep in mind.

Bryant attacked as usual, while the others tried to stretch out their positions to leave enough space for the boss to play alone.

Although the defender was replaced by Alstom and Nelson, Kobe Bryant still passed the opponent in just one step. If it weren't for the bad feeling, the boss would have planned to invest directly. But considering that the Lakers have missed several offensive misses, he decided to go with the tactics anyway.

As soon as he stepped in, Bryant ushered in the double bag of Lewis and Nelson. The previous experience of three people in a row did not make the boss enthusiastic for a while, and as soon as his wrist was raised, the basketball suddenly flew in the direction of Gasol, and Kobe Bryant also cut in from the side.

The tacit understanding between the two made Gasol understand Kobe's intentions, pretended to attack after receiving the ball, and then threw the ball to Kobe Bryant when the monster came over to make up for the defense.

The boss who got the ball again still didn't make a shot, the Magic's interior line was overcrowded at this time, and Kunis Lee was also coming, plus Lewis who was close to him, the chance was not very good if he insisted on shooting.

With a push of the right hand that took the ball, Kobe Bryant threw the ball to Li Chen, who was squatting outside the three-point line and did not move, and a series of moves won an opportunity for the Lakers' outside line. And as the person with the most guaranteed hit rate, the Big Apple has reason to get more attention.

With a flick of the wrist and a knife down, the Big Apple properly scored 3 points for the Lakers.

“**!” Stan Van Gundy, who was sitting on the bench, scolded Kunis Lee for his stupid performance, "They all say that you don't care about Kobe, just keep an eye on the big apple, it's just such a simple request, how can it be so difficult to implement!" ”

Van Gundy, who doesn't have a backache standing and talking, can't understand the player's difficulties at all, in that case, if Kunis Lee doesn't make up for the defense, Kobe Bryant will definitely make a shot, and it is not difficult to score the ball with his ability, in the choice question of making Kobe score or pass, Kunis Lee chose the latter.

And with his perception of the great god, it is not certain that the ball will not be passed, after all, nine out of ten people will say that the great god plays alone, this is not groundless, when he and his teammates have the opportunity at the same time, even if they are not as good as others, Kobe Bryant will choose to believe in himself more often.

It's just that this time Kunis Lee thought wrong, between his strong shot and the big Apple's three points, Kobe Bryant decisively chose to believe his teammates, and the reward was that the Lakers' score on the scoreboard increased by three points.

The sudden three-point cold arrow poured cold water on the Magic's enthusiasm for chasing points, and Howard's subsequent single-miss shot gave the Lakers another chance.

This time, the boss didn't hesitate, and made a strong shot from outside the three-point line, ignoring Nelson in front of him, and the basketball passed through the basket with a beautiful arc.

Swish! Lakers take another three points! The initiator smiled in Stan Van Gundy's direction, and the boss meant to say, this kid can't do it, you can change it!

Even if Van Gundy was extremely reluctant, he still had to send Alstom, the situation just now told him that luck on the basketball court is absolutely impossible, such a big gap, as the first person in the league, there is no reason why the god who is the first person in the league will not take advantage of it.

Li Chen is not good at sending charcoal in the snow, but he has done a lot of icing on the cake, of course, from the perspective of magic, it is more appropriate to say that it is a falling stone.

The same is a strong investment, the same is a throw! Big Apple's relentless three-pointer crushed Kunis Lee's defensive will.

"I'll shoot three points!" Before making a move, Li Chen said to Kunis Li like this. Although he thought that the other party was trying to divert his attention, Kunis Lee still kept an eye on it, as long as the other party jumped, then he was ready to block at any time.

It's just that his height and arm span are not as good as others, and when Big Apple chooses the difficult posture of leaning back sharply, even if he has made certain preparations before, Kunis Lee still has to watch the opponent's shot.

"I threw it!" Li Chen coldly informed the opponent, since it is a play, the shelf must be put on a foot, it is all played like this in the TV series, and the coach also teaches it like this, after scoring a goal, you must hit the opponent's mind hard.

"Oops, does this guy feel up too?" Van Gundy frowned, the current situation seemed dangerous to him, if the Big Apple felt beaten, then the magic really had no hope at all.

At the critical moment, Lewis once again gave the Magic a glimmer of hope, and after taking the ball, he pretended to break through, but in fact he handed the ball to his teammates, and then used Howard's body as a cover to slip to the bottom line on the other side of the three-point line.

Although Odom wanted to keep up, he was helplessly blocked by Mr. Chaosheng with his wide** shoulders, and when he went around, Mr. Yuan had already made a move.

"Well done, Rashad!" Howard slapped Lewis on the back, "Just like you did before, help me with three points and we've got to win this game!" ”

It may be because he has mixed with Lei Allen, Mr. Yuan's surname seems to have been influenced by Junzi Lei, he always looks so elegant on the field, not forced to throw, not brutal, although he lacks enthusiasm, but it is also difficult to see him lose his mind, even if this elegance makes him look more like a soft egg, but for the magic of passion, Mr. Yuan's calmness is an indispensable coagulant.

Lewis and his teammates high-fived, although the three-point seems timely, but it does not ensure that the Magic can save their disadvantage, even if the 9-point difference is converted to three points, it will take three offensive rounds, and the premise is that the Lakers can't score on all three offenses. Obviously, this is almost impossible.

"I'm ready to shoot threes!" Considering the rise of the Big Apple's hand, Kobe Bryant did not choose to play alone, and he put the ball in the hands of the younger brother.

"I'll cover it, you wait!" Kunis Lee said viciously, and he could only hide his inner instability through the anger on his face.

The opponent's attitude surprised Li Chen slightly, but it didn't interfere with his next moves.

"Okay, then I'll wait!" As soon as the words fell, the Big Apple was already activated.

Kunis Li, who thought that the opponent was going to force another throw, didn't react for a while, and was almost thrown away by the other party, but fortunately, the previous humiliation gave him enough strength, and he still caught up after chasing two steps.

"Oops!" Bryant's figure suddenly appeared in Kunis Lee's field of vision, and it was obvious that he was trying to cover for the Big Apple. Originally, if Kunis Lee didn't lose his position, then he could still choose to plug in one step earlier, after all, although that would leave the opponent with a chance to break through, compared to shooting, Big Apple's breakthrough was obviously much weaker.

But in this situation, it is obviously impossible to plug in, and the responsibility of defending the Big Apple can only be handed over to Alstom.

The result can be imagined, the street ball king can barely defend Kobe Bryant because the opponent has a small short hand, but when facing Li Chen, his little bounce is not enough to erase the gap with the opponent in other aspects.

After being ignored by Kobe Bryant, Alston was ignored by Li Chen again. Compared to the former, this time it was more crisp, Big Apple jumped up and down like that, staring at the basket, his hands straightened, his wrists flicked, and he didn't even use any moves to dodge the defense, and it was obvious that Big Apple didn't feel that those movements were necessary.

Spanking people in the face! Li Chen taught his opponent a lesson with the three points that Magic is most proud of! (To be continued.) )
