Chapter 372: Kill, Killing God is Better Than Killing God! 【Request for Recommendation Votes】
Thank you so much today, the specific names of the big ones are listed one day, and I'm really excited! I don't know if the monthly pass can break 70 or even higher!
The update was late because the network was broken and it couldn't be transmitted, and the mobile phone was transmitted for more than half an hour, and it took more than 20 trillion to finally transmit it, and I was forced to ask for a ticket!

"The 12-point difference doesn't seem to be big, and there is still a lot to play in the fourth quarter, but from my point of view, the Los Angeles Lakers played really badly and didn't play as well as they should, especially Anzu on the inside." Kenny. Smith commented.
"Anzu, little shark." Charles. Barkley laughed exaggeratedly, "As much as I hate that Shaq guy, I still have to say that the little shark is so worthless these days, I even feel like he's even the Eddie in New York. Curry is not as good as, at least Eddie. Curry doesn't have a short circuit in his head like he does, and some might say he's a young player. ”
Barkley glanced at the Lakers bench and continued: "This is his third season in the NBA, and he has to show corresponding growth to repay the trust of the Lakers management, and of course Karim, who must have regretted being his teacher, a 20-year-old guy can't handle a 60-year-old man." ”
As Ross Barkley said, Bynum's performance tonight was terrible as head coach Phil. Jackson was not satisfied, and the team was able to fall behind by only 12 points because of the combination of Gasol, Odom and Kobe.
At the moment, the team's run-in is not very good, and they are not playing the triangle offensive tactics he had in mind, but fortunately, there are still three of them plus Fisher.
At the beginning of the fourth quarter, Bynum was still on the bench. Meme, Odom, Luke. Walton, Vujacic and Fisher became the Lakers' on-court lineup.
The Magic, on the other hand, replaced Mutombo, Chris, who were particularly good on the defensive end today. Webb, Grant. Hill, Sam. Kassel and Billups.
"Orlando's roster is a little bit older." Kenny. Smith said as he looked at the Magic players on the court.
"Hey. It's not on the oversized side. Totally the Legion of Seniors. Barkley replied with a smile.
Although the Magic lineup is very old. But the offensive end is not bad, Linson is not in Billups and has completely become a playmaker and returned to the role of Detroit, and the Magic play well on the offensive end.
But this lineup also has a lot of shortcomings, especially Kassel, although Kassel is good on the offensive end but not good on the defensive end, he was not a speed guard when he was young, let alone now, which directly led to two three-pointers scored by Vujacic. Van Gundy is ready to make a substitution.
Then. Hill received Kassel's split shot directly, but the ball failed to hit Odom and grabbed the defensive rebound and immediately turned to attack and advanced to the frontcourt, while Vujacic on the other side was also fast.
The Magic returned to the defense as soon as possible, but what they didn't expect was that Vujacic actually caught the ball when there was still one step away from the three-point line, and he hit it.
Sasha ...... Vujacic ......" The MC on the scene stretched his voice, and Vujacic on the field roared excitedly.
"I didn't expect him to shoot a feeling, and the Lakers scored three three-pointers in a row to chase the difference to only seven points, Stan couldn't sit still, and Sam should be replaced." Kenny. As soon as Smith finished speaking, Stan. Van Gundy asked for a timeout. At this point, four minutes into the fourth quarter, there were almost two minutes left before the normal main lineup came on the court.
Kassel himself was helpless, but it was all a foregone conclusion. After receiving the large towel handed over by the staff, Kassel sat directly on the bench.
"What's going on? Bryant played early? Did he rest well? He didn't have a break in the third quarter. "Kenny. Smith looked at Kobe Bryant who walked on the court and was surprised.
The same was true for the fans at the scene, but they reacted to Kobe Bryant and immediately sent crazy cheers.
"It's clear that Bryant wants to take advantage of this opportunity to chase down points as soon as possible, but Orlando is also on the court at the moment, and he didn't play well against Shaun tonight." Barkley continued.
The entire Magic coaching staff didn't expect Kobe Bryant to return to the court so early, but they were relieved to think that Battier was substituted.
However, the Magic's offense didn't make it, Webber's mid-range jumper slipped out of the basket under Odom's hard work, and Vujasic, who had just hit three three-pointers in a row, got a defensive rebound.
"Chris's shot missed, now it's a chance for Los Angeles." Kenny. Smith said, looking at the field.
Fisher passed the ball to Bryant, and Battier immediately marked it.
And Vujacic ran quickly, and the hot hand just now made the Magic have to pay attention to his defense, which directly led to Battier facing Kobe Bryant alone, which is still the signature defense, but this time Kobe failed to block Kobe.
"Damn it!" Linson was very depressed when he saw Kobe Bryant's goal, and the whole Staples gave Kobe Bryant crazy cheers.
And in the next two minutes, Bryant hit two shots again to directly help the Lakers chase the difference to only two points. Van Gundy was ready to call a timeout, and it was at this time that Odom stole Webb and the Lakers immediately launched a fast break.
"Steal, Lamar snatched the ball, Lakers fast break!" Kenny. Smith turned around and shouted loudly, Kobe Bryant advanced quickly with the ball, and the Lakers fans in Staples cheered wildly.
What the Magic didn't expect was that Fisher actually threw a chase three-pointer directly from the outside, and more importantly, Fisher's three-point shot was solid.
The Lakers chased for almost a night and officially overtook the score at this time, which was something that all Magic fans did not expect, and Staples, which can accommodate 20,000 people, was completely boiling.
"It all came so suddenly, Stan should have made a change sooner, Kobe. Bryant obviously turned on the individual offensive mode after he came on the court, and everyone knew that he couldn't mess with him when he turned on the offensive mode, and Sean and Ron are not the same type of defenders, and replacing Ron may be able to change the situation. ”
"I agree with that, but it's not too late to call a timeout, and hopefully we can adjust. After all, there is still time. "Kenny. Smith looked at the Magic players on the sidelines.
"If nothing else, Wood will be back on the field. Rond and White will too. The most important thing for Orlando now is to score and stabilize the situation, then the defense, Chauncey should be substituted from the fourth quarter. Barkley said.
The short 20-second timeout passed quickly, and as Barkley said, Stan. Van Gundy made a substitution, and the Lakers led the Magic by one point at 88-87 with 6:22 left before the end of the game.
"The game restarted, Orlando except for Sean who continued to stay on the court and everyone else was starters, and on the Los Angeles side it was Paul, Lamar, Michael, Bryant and Derrick, and Orlando's offense was particularly important." Kenny. Smith said as he looked at the players on the court.
Lin Sen received Battier's serve and did not rush to dribble the ball over the front court, but brought it to the front court unhurriedly. The Lakers didn't choose to press all over the court, closing them in the lead.
When Linson came to the frontcourt, Petrus immediately pulled out of the three-point line, and Linson didn't choose to play alone much in this game, but his defensive effect was not good.
For the Magic, this goal must be scored, because it is related to the morale of the team, and he must stand up as the leader of the team, even if there can be a more intelligent system offensive option, Lin Sen will not choose, because the system goal can only temporarily ease the team's morale at most, and what he wants is to bring the team's morale back up.
Wood made a gesture, and Sean went up, covering...... Bryant Supplemental Defense! "Kenny. Smith shouted. And the defender in front of Linson changed from Petrus to Kobe.
Such a scene was what Lin Sen could think of, and it was also what he was looking forward to. After spending a month with Kobe, he is familiar with Kobe's defense, and although his offense will be a little difficult against Kobe's defense, Linson believes that beating Kobe is far more valuable than beating Petrus.
Neither of them spoke, but looked directly at each other, and their eyes flashed with the belief that they would win.
"Wood and Bryant have a direct conversation, and Wood doesn't seem to have any intention of passing." Kenny. Smith said, looking at the field.
The rhythm is staggered, dribbling the ball, the footsteps move forward little by little, and Kobe Bryant also retreats a little bit, but always maintains the pressure on Lin Sen.
When the attack time entered fifteen seconds, Lin Sen unexpectedly gave up the choice of breaking through directly and chose to attack with his back to his back.
"Oh, Wood made that choice."
"Kenny, don't forget, Wood showed up on Liliang a few times today, and he's been with Bryant all summer, so he's sure he made that choice." Barkley turned to look at Kenny. Smith said.
As Barkley said, he wasn't without a little certainty, but Bryant didn't defend Linson because of the relationship between the two off the court.
Boom!
Lin Sen's back crashed into Kobe, and he immediately had a plan in his heart, in addition to scoring goals, he would consume Kobe's physical energy.
With three consecutive hits, Lin Sen came to the place where he was one step from the three-point line.
At this moment, leaning on Kobe's body and shaking violently, but Kobe Bryant behind him did not shake, this action was what he taught Lin Sen.
However, Lin Sen then turned into a real shaking, slapped the ball with his left foot as the axis, and then jumped in front of Kobe Bryant after a half-step with his right foot.
Looking at Lin Sen, who was jumping quickly, Kobe Bryant reacted and jumped as soon as possible, and at the same time straightened his arm to try to interfere with Lin Sen.
However, Lin Sen's body turned over with a half-step and a half retreat and his body was still leaning back, although he was facing Kobe Bryant head-on at the moment, but the distance between the two was widened, and Kobe Bryant could only follow Battier to block Lin Sen's shooting sight.
Lin Sen glanced at Kobe Bryant, who pounced, and quickly threw the ball out with a standard shooting hand, and when the ball was shot, Lin Sen felt like he had scored, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
“shit!” Kobe Bryant scolded in a low voice, Lin Sen's smile was familiar to him, he had experienced it many times this summer, and soon a voice came from behind him to confirm what he thought.
"Cast beautifully! A beautiful turn-and-step jumper, it's hard to imagine that Wood, who was standing in the middle range half a year ago, was still a guy who could be two meters away from him as a defender. "Kenny. Smith exclaimed.
"I'm not going to let you get what you want." LIN SEN SMILED AT KOBE AND TURNED AROUND AGAIN AS HE TURNED TO LEAVE, "AND YOU STILL OWE ME AND TARCY TWO MEALS." ”
Hearing this, Kobe's eyes suddenly widened: "The victory can only be mine, and as for the meal, I will not forget." ”
"Maybe Bryant will regret training with Wood. Look how stretched his movements are. It's beautiful. This season's Wood was enough to give those opponents more headaches, and Orlando came back by a point. Barkley said with a smile.
Back on the offensive end, Kobe Bryant faced Artest's beastly defense, and although Bryant failed to complete the goal, he caused Artest to foul, and Bryant, who stood at the free throw line, made one of two free throws to help the Lakers tie the difference.
And the next attack, Lin Sen faced Petrus's defense, and Lin Sen, who adjusted the rhythm of Haode, did not leave Petrus too much time to think, and started violently while touching Petrus's body.
One big stride left Petrus behind, and Lin Sen, who shook off Petrus, went straight to the inside.
"The perfect first step, the pace is too fast, too big." Kenny. Smith shouted.
Look at Paul with his arms raised to defend himself. Gasol Linson slammed the ball down. The whole person hugged the ball and greeted him.
Seeing that Lin Sen rushed up as if holding an explosive bag, Gasol didn't dare to press down at all, so he could only raise his arms to put pressure on Lin Sen.
"Wood rushed to Paul and oh, he chose the pass, a nice pass!" Accompanied by Barkley's words, Howard, who received the ball, directly slammed his hands down.
The game completely entered a white-hot state, without Billups's Magic became a strengthened version of last season's defense, but Kobe Bryant completely turned on the personal offensive mode, although Artest and Battier were difficult to entangle, but under the cover of teammates and his own hand, Kobe Bryant scored 10 points again in just four minutes, not only increased his personal score to a high score of 45 points again, but also helped the team bite the Magic tightly.
And Lin Sen is not far behind. However, after Billups returned to the court, Linson's offense became much easier, and although he didn't score as much as Kobe, he unknowingly increased his score to 30 points.
The game went on. With 1:10 left in the game, the Magic and Lakers were tied at 104:104 with Billups' mid-range jumper.
Chauncey's key goal, but this time Wood's split was just right, the two sides were tied, and Wood's fitness still looked abundant, and Bryant missed two shots in a row who could see that he had a physical problem, he had played nearly 40 minutes in the whole game and had to keep facing the defense of Ron and Shaun, two top defenders, and also took on some defensive tasks, but no one can underestimate his deadly black mamba." Kenny. Smith said as he looked at Kobe Bryant, who was sticking to Artest on the court and reaching out for the ball.
Paul on the inside. Gasol pulled out, and Kobe, who was originally attached to Artest, immediately ran to the top of the arc, and at the same time, Fisher, who was holding the ball, sent the ball directly to the top of the arc.
"Paul covers, Bryant catches the ball, breaks!"
Accompanied by Kenny. Smith's words, Kobe, who was already physically and mentally exhausted, directly turned around and rushed to the inside.
Facing Milicic who was defending himself, he changed direction and flashed Milicic and went straight to the basket, Linson, who was guarding Fisher, turned around at the moment of Fisher's pass, and saw Kobe Bryant go straight to the inside and immediately chased after him.
Howard on the other side saw Kobe Bryant rushing in and immediately threw away Odom and pounced, if Kobe passed the ball, he had nothing to say, but not making up the defense meant handing the basket to Kobe.
Howard also saw Lin Sen who caught up with the defense, and felt a lot more relieved, and put all his strength on Kobe.
"Wood and Dwight!" Barkley shouted as he looked at the field.
Kobe Bryant jumped up, and Lin Sen, who was following him, also jumped up, stretching his arms as long as he could, and went straight to the ball in Kobe's hand, while Howard in front of Kobe Bryant also raised his arms high.
Looking at the ball that appeared in front of him, Lin Sen fanned it without hesitation, but Kobe suddenly a dodge ball disappeared from his eyes, and Lin Sen's uncontrollable hand hit Kobe Bryant's arm directly.
The referee's whistle sounded as soon as possible, and Kobe, who was already in physical condition, forcibly threw the ball to the basket.
Lakers fans were expecting a two-plus-one, but the ball eventually slid out of the basket to the relief of Magic fans in front of the TV.
"Bryant almost pinned Orlando to the losing post." Kenny. Smith said with a slight exaggeration.
Bryant glared at Linson as he walked to the free throw line, his free throw percentage wasn't good tonight, and he missed four of his 17 free throws, but this time he didn't disappoint Lakers fans, making two of two free throws.
"Two free throws and two hits. Bryant has disappointed Orlando Magic fans. And he also improved his personal score by 47 points. Although the shooting percentage was not high, only 15 of 35 shots. "Kenny. Smith said, looking at the stats.
"There are still forty-nine seconds left in the game, just two points apart, and Wood is a super big heart, not to mention the key Mr. Chauncey." Barkley's words are also a source of confidence for Magic fans.
Linson dribbled the ball past half court and immediately handed the ball to Billups and then quickly pulled away, but the Lakers did not relax at all on Linson's defense.
Billups didn't rush to attack either, and for the Magic, this offense was about success, and he made eye contact with Linson and decided to use the circle strategy.
After continuous running, Lin Sen suddenly ran back, not only did not slip the bottom line, but pulled out the 40-degree three-point line. Just when Petrus was nervous, Linson plunged directly into it from 45 degrees, and Milicic on the inside helped Linsen block Petrus with a cover.
Bypassing the inside line, Linson went directly to the other side, the ball in Billups's hand was immediately passed, and after the pass, Billups immediately moved away from Linson, and Artest also ran to the bottom corner.
"Change the guard!" Bryant, who was defending Billups, yelled and immediately pounced on Linson.
Looking at Kobe Linson, who pounced on him, raised the ball with both hands and made a shooting action, Kobe jumped up subconsciously, and when he jumped, Linson quickly took the ball and pulled it horizontally and jumped up again.
Wood shook Bryant, pulled up and jumped, and shot from mid-range again. Did you make a key shot this time? Barkley shouted.
Kobe Bryant saw that Lin Sen was completely powerless, and he could only hope that Lin Sen's hand was not good. But Linson let him down and sent the ball into the basket cleanly.
At 106:106, the two sides tied again with 30 seconds left before the end of the game, and the Lakers still had six seconds to complete the offense even after using the 24 seconds Magic.
Phil. Jackson called a timeout, and he had to get this crucial offense in place.
"In a suffocating game, Wood once again showed everyone how good his mid-range shooting was, shooting 13-of-18 from the field, making 17 fewer shots than Bryant and scoring just two fewer goals."
"Charles, are you sarcastic about Bryant?" Kenny. Smith asked, turning his head and smiling.
After the timeout, the Lakers replaced Petrus with Blake, and the Magic side remained unchanged from the previous five.
The Lakers are not in a hurry to attack, they also pursue a success rate, and even if they can't play, they don't want to give the Magic too much time to attack.
And the Magic's defense is also exceptionally tight, so that the Lakers can't find a chance to make a move for a while, and unconsciously the twenty-four seconds that belong to the Lakers come to ten seconds, Fisher ran to Kobe, and Odom ran to Kobe Bryant at the same time.
"Lamar and Derek cover! Bryant! "Kenny. Smith shouted.
Lin Sen, who was chasing Fisher on the other side, immediately turned around to chase Kobe, and Kobe suddenly made an emergency stop and jumped up directly.
"Damn it!" Lin Sen scolded in his heart, gritted his teeth and forcibly stabilized the center of gravity of his body and jumped, but it was still a beat too late.
Just when the Lakers fans wanted to cheer, a palm appeared from the side on top of the basketball that had just left Kobe's palm.
"Sean, Sean! Critical capping! Barkley yelled.
Although Kobe Bryant got the blocked ball for the first time, he had little time left, and the hasty shot only touched the Nets and flew out of the bottom line.
"It's so critical! Sean made a meritorious service, he won Orlando a chance to zuihou, and there were 6.05 seconds left, which was enough for Orlando to make a shot, and Stan called a timeout, who would he give to? Wood or Chauncey or someone else? "Kenny. Smith looked at the Magic players who were walking to the sidelines.
The atmosphere of the whole court froze 106:106, the Lakers can only ensure overtime by defending this ball, and once they are scored by the Magic, they can only accept the defeat.
"Wood's first choice is still you!" Stan. Van Gundy looked at Lin Sen and said.
Linsen nodded, although the team has a key gentleman like Billups, he still feels that he is responsible for the key shots, which is not only confidence but also a symbol of the team's status.
"Chauncy you're the second choice, Sean you and Ron are the alternates, we're ...... fight like this," Stan. Van Gundy quickly drew on the tactical board.
The 100-second timeout quickly passed in a tense atmosphere, with both players on the field.
"Oh, L.A. opted for a substitution, and they brought on Anzu, who was on the bench for almost the second half. Bynum and Luke replaced Derrick and Steve, and it was clear that they wanted to put Orlando under pressure on the defensive end, while Orlando was unchanged, but Orlando was a tough one for Los Angeles. "Kenny. Smith said as he looked at the players on both sides.
"Obviously, yes, whoever faces this Orlando team has to be afraid, they have too many options at the critical moment." Barkley said with a smile that even if the Magic can't score this goal, they can enter overtime, and Kobe Bryant is exhausted, showing that he believes that entering overtime is also a victory for the Magic.
Milicic stood outside the front court boundary, Linson, Billups, Howard, and Artest stood in a straight line, while Linson stood between Howard and Artest, and Billups stood on the outermost side near Milicic.
Such a position also caused big problems for the Lakers' defense, and as the referee's whistle blew, Milicic lifted the ball up, and the four people on the Magic court ran away at once.
Artest ran up and Howard went down, but both of them took their positions for the first time, while Linson and Billups took the opportunity to run.
"Run, Dakko serve!" Kenny. Smith shouted.
Milicic threw the ball directly at Linson, who was covered by Howard and Artest, jumped at the top of the arc and got the ball safely, but at the first moment of his reception, Kobe Bryant appeared in front of him, Linson did not shoot immediately but shook the ball to Billups.
"It's not Wood, it's Chauncey!" Kenny. Smith shouted again, and Petrus immediately pounced on Billups.
However, Lin Sen, who passed the ball, did not stay in place, and Artastri, who was covering at the beginning, came out.
Boom!
Bryant crashed into Artest's body, and Linson was out of his control.
"Defend!" The Lakers player on the bench shouted at the court, and Linson, who shook off Kobe Bryant with the help of the cover, went straight to the inside, Bynum immediately ran to Linson, but Howard blocked him.
"Still cover, Wood has a chance, Chauncey passes!" With Barkley's voice, Billups, who was holding Petrus, sent the ball out with a blow.
Linson came around the inside and came to this side, and Petrus tried to pounce on Linson, but when he turned, Linson received the ball.
"Bottom corner Wood received the ball, chance, zuihou chance!"
"Three-pointers, that's what Wood knows best, Wood!"
Kenny. Smith and Charles. Barkley shouted one after another, and the voices of the Lakers fans in the Staples Center reached their peak at this moment, eager to pounce on the court and drag Linson, but at this moment they could only watch the unguarded Linson jump from the three-point line in the bottom right corner.
Looking at the basket in the distance, Linson threw the ball, even if he didn't make it to the team, there was still a chance to play overtime, so he threw this ball without pressure.
The moment the ball was shot, Lin Sen felt good.
Watching the ball fly to the basket, Lin Sen raised his right hand high in the air and made a three-point gesture.
Swish!
A crisp sound of wiping the net plunged the entire Staples into silence, and Kobe Bryant looked at Lin Sen, who was holding up a three-point gesture in the bottom corner, and was very helpless. (To be continued......)
