Iguodala's offensive touch continued, but the Lakers' desire to win was very strong.

Some people, when they are forced into a desperate situation, will burst out of great despair, will be afraid of failure, and will become trembling because of this.

However, the Lakers are not in this situation now, and the role players are not clear, at least the five people on the court are very scrappy now.

After all, Phil Jackson's veteran experience could not have made his players want to give up because of a difficult situation.

It's only been a few years since the successful finals were 2-0 down, and it's a good example of a player who can be used to encourage himself.

For that, Phil Jackson would like to thank Riley.

The Lakers attacked, Kobe Bryant directly held the ball and singled, after breaking through, Kobe Bryant made a pass from the waist and gave the ball to Gasol's hand, Chen Jiyuan was unable to intercept the pass, and it was too late to defend Gasol when he wanted to, so he could watch Gasol come to a one-arm split.

It's just that this split buckle is not very domineering no matter how you look at it. It felt like Gasol didn't jump much, so he buckled it in.

However, this ball proves that today's Kobe Bryant does not seem to be falling into his own singles.

Thibodeau also changed his defensive strategy as a result, and he was no longer in the bag of Kobe Bryant in the early part of the day.

Iguodala left it to herself.

In the first half of the game, the Lakers showed a super desire to win, and this desire to win did help them establish some advantages.

And after having the advantage, the Lakers' players saw the hope of victory, and they played harder. I want to win this game even more.

Some people on the Knicks' side began to get anxious, and after halftime, the Knicks were already six points behind the Lakers.

Trailing by 6 points is actually not a problem, the problem is that some people on the team are starting to get anxious, even the always steady Sessions is starting to get anxious, and the choice of passing and offense is starting to become impatient, and even let Artest cut off two passes and was directly hit by the Lakers on a fast break.

The Knicks, who became agitated, gradually fell into a disadvantage more and more. And this disadvantage, until the point difference became 10 points, Thibodeau could only ask for a timeout and change tactics.

The first is to replace the restless Sessions, let Curry play, pass the ball to Chen Jiyuan singles, and then let Curry prepare to receive three-pointers on the outside. Although Curry's current three-point shooting is not so stable, most people would not be willing to let go of a player who has a three-point shooting rate of more than 40 percent.

Then, Thibodeau replaced Iguodala with Barnes, and let Barnes pester Kobe. The person who matches Chen Jiyuan on the inside is still Lefu, but the tactical position has become a high-level pitcher. Completely give up frontcourt rebounding. Quickly return to defense after shooting. During this time, you must play a tough and iron-blooded defense while playing an efficient attack. In this way, we can recover the lost score little by little.

After changing tactics, the Knicks played a little smoothly at first, and Chen Jiyuan assisted Curry to hit two three-pointers in a row. Recovered a little lost point.

But the problem is that next, the Lakers also changed their defensive strategy in time, on the defensive end, it was Bynum who defended Chen Jiyuan, and the person who caught the bag was Kobe, who let Barnes go.

Curry's side was also heavily guarded by the old fish. Next, Curry received three passes. One was a pass from Chen Jiyuan, who was trapped, and two were a pass from Chen Jiyuan to Barnes, who transferred the ball to Curry in a wide area, but missed all three three-pointers.

Until the end of the third quarter, the Knicks were unable to recover the points they lost. The score difference is still at 10 points. The score was 69:79.

If it continues like this, the Knicks are going to lose this game, and the Knicks feel like they're stuck in a quagmire right now. Both legs were sunk in them, and they couldn't pull them out at all. And, every time the Knicks pulled their legs out of the net harder, they sank their legs down a bit.

In the fourth quarter of the game, at the beginning of the game, the Knicks launched a counterattack again.

Leading, it is naturally our leader player Chen Jiyuan.

How could Chen Jiyuan be so willing to fail. The difference of ten points, one quarter of the game, does not mean that the score difference cannot be recovered at all, that is, the gap of twenty points, a whole quarter of the game, it is also possible to catch back.

What makes it difficult for the Knicks now is not this ten, the situation on the twenty games, the momentum, has been pressing on the players' hearts.

There is a very important question, that is, now is not the regular season, nor is it an ordinary playoffs, let alone a game with no concept of victory and defeat like the preseason of the Gods, but the finals, big brother, how important is this game.

If you really want to prove it with a parable that is close to life, then I will give you an example. For example, for a college student, you have already found a job, but the company requires that you are not allowed to fail the course, and now, there is an exam, and you have answered the question with 59 points, which is 1 point short, and you say that you are in a hurry.

For example, if you are a working person, at the end of this year, the year-end bonus will be selected for the attribution of the year-end bonus, and the year-end bonus will be about tens of millions of dollars.

In the NBA, a player who has won a championship has succeeded in gilding, and that is a successful increase in value. The next contract will be quite secure.

A player with a ring will at least make you N dollars more.

And now, in such an important game, the Knicks are very far behind the opponent, which will make the players' hearts feel very stressful and burdened.

Although Chen Jiyuan tried his best to lead the team to counterattack, but after Chen Jiyuan scored a goal, the counterattack failed.

Because Sessions made another pass error, it went straight to Kobe's hands. This is simply the act of an undercover agent.

Kobe Bryant naturally ran forward with the ball frantically, and then took advantage of the situation to make a morale-boosting one-handed slam.

Not to mention others, even the morale that Chen Jiyuan had just raised was wiped out by more than half of them.

Sessions today's performance can be said to be terrible, and it is safe to say that after the game, Kobe Bryant will personally call to thank Sessions.

It's a real undercover agent, and people are undercover and pretending to be one, for example, JR Smith, at the critical moment of the finals, most of JR's defections were deliberately giving people some benefits or something, but they were very secretive, and it looked like it was completely unintentional, and Sessions was good. Just pass the ball directly to Kobe. This, this, this、、、

Chen Jiyuan really didn't know what to say.

This question can be fatal to Sessions, who is usually very safe. It's certainly going to have a serious impact on the way Sessions is judged at the end of the season. In other words, it will seriously affect the next contract signed by Sessions, and we all know that Sessions will be a complete free agent next season, so now is the time for Sessions to prove his strength and prove what kind of price he can worth, and Sessions has such a performance, which is really disappointing.

At the same time, it means that next season, the contract extension that Sessions received may be smaller because of this.

Of course, with his performances throughout the season, Sessions can definitely get a big contract. At least it's a contract with an average annual value of tens of millions of dollars. There is no doubt about that. After all, Sessions has already shown a value line that far exceeds what experts have evaluated. It's hard to say how broad the future will be.

Therefore, even if the performance in the Finals slightly subtracts a little bit of points from Sessions, it is no problem to become a 10-million-level contract, and many teams are willing to give him a 10-million, long-term contract.

After Sessions once again extinguished the team's hopes of a comeback, Thibodeau finally decided to replace his most trusted point guard at critical moments - Sessions, and suffered from Curry, who he didn't like very well and had a very poor defense, to play.

Thibodeau doesn't like Curry because of that. Defend, defend!

After Curry came on the court, the situation on the court still didn't change much, Curry lacked experience in the end, and was a little confused by Fisher's defense, and the pressure of the team's backwardness made Curry's three-point shot inaccurate.

Thibodeau, who originally hoped that Curry could save the team, was disappointed again.

With 4 minutes left in the game, Chen Jiyuan once again led the team to a counterattack.

Chen Jiyuan first made a violent dunk in the air relay, which stimulated the morale of the team.

Then he turned around and blocked Kobe's layup again.

The Knicks, who didn't play a fast break, waited until Chen Jiyuan passed the half, and gave the ball to Chen Jiyuan's injury as soon as possible, Chen Jiyuan's large two-point shot, ignoring Gasol's long-arm defense, and scoring two points in the middle. But it didn't work.

Because next, the Lakers Chen Jiyuan carried out endless entrapment and annoyance tactics.

After Chen Jiyuan passed the ball to no effect, he forcibly shot by himself, but the hit rate was relatively low. He made three turnaround jumpers in a row, but only hit one.

As a result, with only one minute left in the game, the Knicks couldn't chase the score back, leaving the game in garbage time.

In one minute, the score difference is still 7 points, although it is nominally garbage time, but neither side has given up the game.

The Knicks want to see if they can create a Finals miracle, while the Lakers want to make sure they get this victory.

Neither side made substitutions until the red light came on and the game was over. The score was 98:92.

The Lakers tied the score at 1:2.
