Chapter 806: Blatant Murder
The three-inside tactics are extremely powerful on the offensive end, but unfortunately Odom did not play to his strengths, he was not very focused on the court, and Kobe Bryant passed the ball to him, and he flew off the court against his face.
Kobe Bryant was furious, his eyes were scarlet, and if Gasol hadn't stopped him in advance, he would have had to give Odom a roaring attack and ideological guidance.
The Zen master was also very dissatisfied with Odom's table, the lama played for more than ten minutes, but did not score a point, only two rebounds, and in the last minute and a half of the first half, the Zen master called a timeout, and the players got off the court, and Odom was taken out.
The Zen master began to roar at Odom, yelling, "Young man, is your mind still on vacation? We did have a vacation before, but the vacation is over, right? Look at what you've done on the field, if you're like this in bed, then you're a soft-footed shrimp! Or did you take black money from Aucklanders? I have to say, your undercover agent is very successful, I think you are a Laker! ”
Odom has a good temper, that is, he has a good temper, when he is accused by the manager or his teammates, he does not speak, does not refute, does not get angry, like a stuffy gourd.
The Zen master scolded and vented, he actually didn't want to accuse his players at this juncture, but it can't be blamed if he doesn't blame, Kobe is about to break out, he is doing this to help Kobe Bryant put out the fire, if Kobe Bryant is angry, then the Lakers will not be able to get off the stage.
After a lot of scolding, the Zen master made a substitution, Artest came back on the court, and Odom sat on the bench again.
In this regard, Odom did not have any excuses or protests, and sat honestly on the bench, like kindergarten children sitting in rows.
Artest and Odom are two extreme personalities, his temper is as hot as fire, and he is the most face-saving, he entered the NBA in his rookie season that year, he got a rookie contract, but the black brothers on the street didn't know this, so they came to him to eat and drink.
Artest's rookie salary was not much at all, and it was quickly spent, but Artest did not drive away those brothers or tell them clearly, but went to the supermarket to work part-time to make money!
In addition, when he came to the Lakers this season, he just wanted to cooperate with Kobe Bryant to win a championship, otherwise why didn't he stay in the Rockets and follow Yao Ming to enjoy happiness, but came to the Lakers to suffer under Kobe?
After coming off the bench, Artest was like a comet that appeared in the sky, blinding Chamberlain, Nelson Sr. and other people's 24K titanium alloy dog eyes, he roared and first came to a tough bulldozer-style layup, and then, made a foul under the basket, making Ibaka lose face as soon as he came on the court.
The Warriors once again fell behind in the score, Chamberlain was a little anxious, and there was a mistake, Billups made a clever pass, he didn't catch it, and the ball went straight out.
Fortunately, Chamberlain can always make up for his mistakes, the Lakers execute the last attack, don't think about it, this ball is Kobe Bryant's execution, Chamberlain stepped forward to force him to pass the ball, and then chased the ball all the way to Artest, and capped the ball after he shot.
At the end of the first half, the Warriors finally tied the score at 54-54 and did not allow the Lakers to continue to lead.
In the third quarter, the Lakers had the ball, and Kobe Bryant made a pull-up jumper outside the left wing three-point line at the beginning, but his posture was handsome, the shooting percentage was not high, and the ball bounced out and fell into the hands of Chamberlain.
Chamberlain passed the ball to West, and the Warriors began to make a menacing first offense, West took the ball to the front court and stretched out his hand to Chamberlain, Bynum, Gasol and Artest, all three thought he was going to pass the ball, so they rushed to Chamberlain's side together.
Now, the Warriors' perimeter players have too many open opportunities.
The worst thing for the Lakers was that Nelson Sr. replaced Curry in the second half.
A marksman, a full-bodied marksman, a marksman who has experienced the baptism of the finals, what does this mean?
If last year's playoffs, Curry was a trickster, no one can argue with that. If it is said that in the first two rounds of this year's playoffs, Curry has been earning experience points, and that is right.
However, his career last year gave him a lot of experience, and this year's experience of earning experience has also further improved his ability, all in all, a new generation of sharpshooters has appeared in the Lakers' field of vision.
Chamberlain attracted a three-man bag, even if the defense was as good as Kobe, he was numb for a while: I am a, how can I defend this? Damn, the outside line is empty all of a sudden!
West used his run to draw fire for Curry, and Chamberlain distributed the ball to Curry, who dropped a knife and a three-pointer, calmly not like a young man, but a battle-tested killer.
Kenny Smith exclaimed, "Well done, boy, there used to be people who always said that this kid was Dave Curry's son, and from now on, I'm afraid people will have to say that Dave Curry is Curry Jr.'s daddy!" Look at how good he is, he is calm, calm, calm, and has a flat temperament, this is simply a natural killer. ”
Fisher quickly controlled the ball to the front court, Kobe passed the ball patiently to the twin towers on the inside again, Artest hit inward, Gasol cooperated with Kobe Bryant's pass, Chamberlain was invincible with four hands with two fists after all, and Gasol hit it.
After that, West made a pull-up jump shot, but it didn't hit, the ball hit the iron and bounced out, Chamberlain was stuck by Bynum, Gasol took the rebound, the Lakers counterattacked, and as a result, Kobe Bryant hit the iron, and Chamberlain finally grabbed the rebound.
West wanted to organize the offense, but Nelson Sr. blew his beard and glared and yelled, "Give the ball to Steve, give it to Steve!" ”
Curry is a two-way guard, and under Billups, his personality has become very calm, and he is more and more suitable to be the master of the team.
West shrugged and handed the ball to Curry, who raised his right hand and pointed forward after receiving the ball, making a straight smashing gesture.
The meaning of this posture is easy to understand, and even the Lakers know that they are going to play inside, and Bynum and Gasol are once again ready to encircle Chamberlain.
Oxlain took advantage of Ibaka's cover to settle directly on the inside, and Bynum had no other choice but to step forward to block.
Gasol followed on the flank, Ibaka covered Oxlade-Chamberlain and ran back to the high post, Gasol and Artest switched defences, and the latter stepped up hard.
Ibaka and Artest competed for the card position, the former was inside after all, tall and strong, and he reached out like a stroke with his legs bent and then reached out like a stroke, and Artest was stuck behind him.
Artest had a fiery temper, and as soon as he saw that Ibaka, a rookie, was so arrogant, he shook his elbow vigorously and directly hit the back of Ibaka's head.
This elbow was ruthless enough, Ibaka never imagined that he would suffer such a heavy blow, and after screaming, he staggered two steps and was directly knocked to the ground.
Artest also regretted it after swinging his elbow, he was too enthusiastic just now, and his brain was a little too hot to do things, and his elbow swing was a very strict foul, because it was almost murder.
The scene of Artest's elbow swinging was replayed over and over again on the big screen, and Barkley was stunned, and he opened his mouth and muttered, "God, is this rascal trying to kill Ibaka?" Oh, let's pray for that poor Congolese kid, let's hope he's okay, just now, how cruel! ”
Chamberlain and the others surrounded him, and Kobe Bryant hurriedly rushed up with Gasol, but the two were smart and pulled Artest behind him to protect him first.
Artest really wanted to show his hard bones, but he was at fault, and the blood-red posture of Chamberlain and West was indeed terrifying.
"You bitch! Kobe,, I'm going to break his neck today! West rushed up and yelled, and he was also easily excited, waving his hand and pushing Kobe.
As soon as the referees saw that the clash was about to occur, they shouted in their hearts that it was bad, and what was worse was that after Chamberlain crouched on the ground and looked at Ibaka, he suddenly stood up and rushed towards Artest, Fisher tried to stop him, but Chamberlain crashed into it like a tank and knocked him straight away.
"Spicy next door, this is murder, this is murder! I'm going to abolish you bitch! Chamberlain roared and rushed towards Artest, with Fisher in front of him, and the Lakers players did not dare to stop Chamberlain.
In the end, it was the referees who came out, and they stopped in front of Chamberlain with the tragic mood of carrying explosives bags to blow up the bunker, and two people took his arm and one on his lower abdomen, one screaming 'calm down'.
Chamberlain was able to calm down, but the fans could not, and the shouts of more than 20,000 fans chanting in unison 'punish the murderer' were still amazing, and for a moment popcorn and beer were flying everywhere in the stadium, and the scene was in chaos.
Fortunately, Nelson Sr. called a timeout in time, and Ibaka staggered to his feet.
The team doctor came on the field and grabbed Ibaka, held out two fingers and asked, "What is this, kid?" ”
Ibaka frowned and said, "Three? ”
Chamberlain and West began yelling again: "Let go of me, let go of me, I'm going to kill that son of a bitch!" ”
The team doctor made a hasty diagnosis and gave Ibaka a mild concussion verdict, and Nelson replaced Ibaka.
Artest also paid the price for his impulsiveness, and the referee gave him a second-degree malicious foul and sent him off directly.
The Zen master was dumbfounded now, and Ibaka was also gone, but no one knew if he was acting just now, and if he came back later, the strength of the Warriors would not be affected at all.
Artest can't come back to this game, you know, Artest is a very important help for the Lakers, especially in the second half, he is the team's No. 2 main force, second only to Kobe Bryant, and above Gasol.
The referees insisted on refusing to change the decision, joking, how to change it, didn't you see that the fans started to dismantle the chairs? Don't soothe them, it is estimated that the referees and coaches present will have to be carried off the court.
Old Nelson, Billups, Hill and other veterans suppressed the anger of Chamberlain and West, and Curry was also taking the opportunity to show his blood, he pointed at Artest and kept spewing trash talk, looking more energetic than anyone else.
After the timeout, the players on both sides were much calmer, and of course, the Lakers were calm all the time.
The Zen master also has to appease the team, the Warriors have a characteristic, that is, once someone on the team is hurt, everyone else immediately explodes, and the league knows this, so few teams will risk being abused to maliciously foul.
The Lakers obviously know this better, after all, they are all California teams and know each other well.
The Zen master is good at psychological warfare, so he said lightly: "Actually, this is our chance, look, our opponent is in a hurry, the so-called brotherhood is just the courage of the horseman, after the game oppresses them, they will have a lot of mistakes!" ”
At the beginning of the game, after two free throws and two hits, the Warriors had the ball.
The Lakers, as arranged by the Zen master, began to press the Warriors in all directions, hoping that they would make mistakes themselves.
Chamberlain stretched out his arm on the inside to ask for the ball, Curry immediately passed the ball to him, Chamberlain turned around and yelled 'get out of the way if you don't want to die', and then pushed inside fiercely and passed the ball to Billups outside the three-point line.
Curry and Billups made a reverse run, the two swapped positions, but they were both outside the three-point line, Fisher's slow pace moved too slowly, forming a misalignment, and Billups shot in the face of his crisp hand.
Three-point hit!
