Zhang Kong and Granger played a role as soon as they came on the court, Zhang Kong and Granger completed a 2-on-1 cooperation, helping Zhang Kong pass Kobe Bryant, who was glued to him, and then Zhang Kong rushed into the interior and scored an easy layup to re-equalize the score.

And with Zhang Kong's layup, the state of the players on the Pacers' side is slowly picking up, and the gap in rebounding is gradually narrowing, Murphy's defense may not be good, but when Bynum's hand is not good, he is not a big problem with rebounding, and many teams are drooling when they look at Murphy's rebounding ability, this guy's rebounding sense is really good.

And Granger and Artest, the enemies of this series, also played extremely hard today, Artest gave up his most powerful defensive ability, because there was no one on the Lakers' side to attack, Kobe Bryant was obviously a little unbearable under the stalking of Dundee Jones, and Zhang Kong This guy also came over from time to time to make up for the defense, which made Kobe very collapsed.

If there is a feeling against the sky, maybe he can force a change of life, but now his hand is not good, Kobe can only fall into passivity, when there is 1 minute and 42 seconds left in the quarter, Granger hit a three-point shot, the Pacers took a 7-point advantage again at 38-31, Kobe Bryant can only be depressed and alone now, in the first half he shot only 3 of 14, and was completely killed by Zhang Kong and Deng Tai Jones, Deng Tai Jones didn't want to attack today, the only thing he needed to do was to prevent Kobe Bryant.

This also gave Zhang Kong more time to organize the offense and score by himself, Kobe Bryant only scored 8 points in the first half, which is not like the usual him, if it weren't for Artest, who was killed halfway, maybe the Pacers would have determined the lead a long time ago, even if Artest scored 12 points in the second quarter, he scored 12 points in the first quarter! However, the Lakers still trailed the Pacers 34-40.

At halftime, the players on the Pacers' side had a collective meeting, Jim O'Brien didn't ask much, just keep the status quo, after the break, the Pacers and the Lakers returned to the court, but before they got on the court, everyone felt that the Lakers were a little murderous, it can be seen that Phil Jackson, a fake monk, had mobilized the murderous spirit of these guys in an unknown way at halftime, this is the last game, no matter who is allowed to make mistakes.

At the beginning of the third quarter, Zhang Kong cooperated with Granger and scored a layup in the air, and then Zhang Kong scored three goals under the defense of Kobe Bryant on the outside, and the Pacers started the quarter with a 9-2 attack wave, leading the opponent by as many as 13 points at 49-36, and the Lakers had to call a timeout, although the Lakers' blood surname had been mobilized at this time.

But their style of play hasn't changed much, and Phil Jackson hasn't changed their style of play to allow the Pacers to further extend their lead and stimulate the Lakers players with realistic scores, and they're doing really well so far.

After the Lakers called a timeout, their style of play changed instantly, from the previous man-to-man style of play to a 2-3 zone defense, because they knew that the entire Pacers did not have the kind of player who could shoot from a long distance.

With a 2-3 defense, the Lakers didn't have much of a problem defending the Pacers, and on the offensive end, Kobe Bryant hit his first goal of the game, although his hand was still not good, but after he hit, the momentum of the Lakers' side also changed.

After the Lakers scored five points in a row, the gap narrowed, Kobe Bryant was still difficult to break through under the strict defense of Duntai Jones and Zhang Kong, until the end of the third quarter of the game, in addition to the shot he just made, he only scored another goal 6 shots 2, today's Kobe has been completely abolished by Zhang Kong and Duntai Jones on the Pacers' side, but the Lakers are not without a score.

In the next game, the Lakers' defense and interior advantages were brought into full play, and in the last 3 minutes and 27 seconds of the quarter, except for Zhang Kong hitting a two-point shot from mid-range, the Pacers did not hit a single ball.

The Lakers also want to open, anyway, I can't get in, if I can't get in, I'll work defense, and you don't want to get in.

Zhang Kong's originally sharp breakthrough was a little helpless in front of the opponent's joint defense, no matter how strong he was, it was almost impossible to play three on the basketball court, and it was impossible for Zhang Kong to use violence on the basketball court.

But fortunately, the Pacers still maintain the lead, facing the Lakers, the Pacers can press the Lakers so much at home, it is definitely the best thing, and at the beginning of the fourth quarter, the audience burst into a shocking cry.

The roar of "MVP" reverberated throughout the Conseco Center, and it turned out that if the Pacers won the game today, that empty would definitely be the MVP, the MVP of the regular season was snatched by James, and the MVP of the Finals would definitely be empty.

So far, Zhang Kong has contributed 18 points, 6 assists, 4 blocks, and 2 rebounds, and the opponent's defense is really too strict.

Even Zhang Kong's pass is difficult to penetrate the opponent's defense, but fortunately, Zhang Kong still controls his mistakes, at present, Zhang Kong's mistakes are only one, and Zhang Kong's mistakes are very few in normal times, it can be said that he is the point guard with the fewest mistakes in the league now, compared to the old fish opposite, although there are not many mistakes, but he has let Zhang Kong be scrapped.

In the MVP sound chanted by the home fans, Zhang Kong is getting more and more happy, and Kobe Bryant is playing more and more unhappy, because when he was in Los Angeles, the MVP's call was Kobe's, and it may be that the call of the home fans stimulated Kobe, and this time he was unreasonable on the outside and directly scored three points, and Deng Tai Jones actually fouled the other party and sent the opponent directly to the free throw line. Kobe Bryant's abacus is very good, he is really not good at shooting today, and he has no chance to break through with Deng Tai-Jones and Zhang Kong, so it is better to cheat the free throws directly, so that he can play more comfortably.

His idea was very correct, Kobe Bryant was still relatively accurate today, and after three free throws, the Lakers chased the score to 58-59...... And standing up at this critical time is naturally the savior of the team.

At present, Zhang Kong's three-point shot is 4 of 9, and the last shot is stable! So he was not polite, after dribbling past half court, he looked at Kobe Bryant in front of him, and looked for other players by himself, but unfortunately his actions were too fake and he didn't deceive Kobe at all.

So at the moment when Zhang Kong jumped, Kobe Bryant also jumped up, blocking Zhang Kong's vision with both hands.

Zhang Kong threw the ball out by feeling, but at the moment when the ball was shot, Zhang Kong felt that something was not right...... "It's broken!" Sure enough, the ball slammed into the basket and bounced out, and Zhang Kong suddenly remembered that his shooting percentage was not fixed, and it would improve when no one defended it, but when someone defended it, Zhang Kong's three-point shooting would decline.

According to the strict density of the opponent's defense, the current Kobe Bryant knows that his offense has failed, so he can only use tough defense to fight back.

Obviously, he did it, Zhang Kong's ball was really interfered with by him, and after the basketball popped up, fortunately, Granger on the inside miraculously grabbed the frontcourt rebound and sent the ball into the basket, although the ball went in, it also sounded the alarm for Zhang Kong.

"It's still a bit underestimating the heroes of the world! Be careful! Zhang Kong was cheering up Granger when he was returning to defense, and he was also warning himself in a whisper, but before he could come to his senses, Artest over there had already rushed into the interior with the ball.

Zhang Kong's reaction slowed down and did not keep up with Artest, who broke through Granger, Artest broke directly into the interior line and rushed towards Murphy in front of him, although Murphy's defense was not good, but he would not back down in the face of such a challenge.

immediately lowered his center of gravity and looked at Artest in front of him, who rushed into the interior with the ball, and jumped high to dunk.

It's not for nothing that Artest is called the beast, this guy plays more on instinct than tactics.

Now he is playing well, that is, he wants to dunk through Murphy, if Murphy wants to resist, then come! That's the power of the beast.

Murphy looked at Artest in front of him and shouted, no matter what, no matter how soft Murphy is, he is also a big man of two meters and ten meters, if Artest in front of him is just let himself be deducted, then it is better to go to soy sauce.

So he also jumped up from the ground with a shout, trying to block Artest's goal, but at the moment when he was about to shoot the ball in Artest's hand, Artest took the ball back, and Murphy, who couldn't stop it, could only watch his hand slap on Artest's arm, and at the same time, Artest lifted the ball in his hand, and then fell from the air.

"Foul!" The ball has not yet gone in, the referee's gesture has been played, Murphy's foul is very clear, and at this time, the basketball in the air also drew an arc, and fell into the basket steadily, hearing the referee's blow penalty, not only Zhang Kong was stunned, all the Pacers players were stunned, not because of Artest's 2+1 ...... It's because this foul is Murphy's fifth foul, and there are still a full 9 minutes and 18 seconds before the end of the game, which means that Murphy is going to go down, but if he is off, who will protect the backcourt rebounds? The question instantly flooded into the minds of all the players on foot, and even Jim O'Brien off the field felt like his head was buzzing all of a sudden...... This time it's troublesome!

Glancing at Hibbert off the court, he is now the only player the Pacers can rely on on inside.
