Bryant erupted for three minutes in the third quarter.

Then it went on a cooldown again.

At the beginning of the fourth quarter, Bryant sat on the bench and drank water.

Scott still has to guarantee Kobe Bryant's rest time.

For the Lakers, Bryant's ability to play the ball in key moments is invaluable.

Therefore, Kobe Bryant's physical strength must be preserved.

Kobe Bryant is a notoriously physical monster.

But after all, the age is here.

The Lakers need him in the most critical moments.

Ability to show the ability of peak in a short period of time.

And the rest of the time, it's up to someone else to hold on.

In the fourth quarter, the Warriors fought back in waves.

"Iguodala receives a pass and shoots a three-pointer from the bottom corner! Hit! The Warriors countered with a three-pointer, and the difference was reduced to only 1 point! ”

With Iguodala hitting a three-pointer on the counter-attack.

A little more than a minute into the fourth quarter.

The Warriors tied the score to just one point.

Bogut made a strong attack under the basket, and then blocked Randolph's layup on the defensive end.

Follow the counterattack with three points.

The six-point advantage in the first three quarters.

It disappeared in the blink of an eye.

"The Warriors' offense is too fast, the advantage is gone in the blink of an eye, let's see if the Lakers will call a timeout."

Bryant got up from the bench.

Said to Scott, "Coach, let me go, right?" ”

The advantage was fleeting, and Bryant felt he should go on the court to stop the bleeding.

But Scott looked at the time, and the fourth quarter had just begun.

At least give Bryant a five-minute break or so.

Scott gritted his teeth and said, "Sit down, you sit down and rest!" Trust your teammates! ”

During the regular season, Scott rarely "disobeyed" Kobe Bryant's meaning.

But it's the playoffs, and it's all under his command.

Bryant sat back on the bench and forced himself to be patient.

Trust teammates, that's what Phil Jackson said to him.

That was in the 2007-2008 season.

The year Bryant wanted to leave the Lakers.

He's fed up with his big bag and scoring like crazy.

And the level of teammates is not good.

Kobe Bryant doesn't even need a while, All-Star teammate.

Later, the situation of 09 and 10 proved that it was an inside line of the second formation.

With some substitutes who dare to fight, Kobe Bryant can aim for the championship.

So he wanted to leave as a threat to the team.

That summer, the Lakers' only takeaway from free agency was to re-sign Fisher......

However, after the start of the new season, they played first in the West.

Then came with Pau Gasol being traded.

The Lakers have officially become a championship-level powerhouse.

Since then, Phil Jackson told Bryant.

"You have to trust your teammates."

This was said to Michael Jordan 15 years ago.

Since then, the Bulls have grown into a championship team.

Bryant sat on the bench and steadied himself.

He decided to trust his teammates and rest well at the same time.

At this time, the pressure on the Lakers is high.

In the fourth quarter, the lead was only one point.

There was still a full quarter of the game, and the advantage of this point was equivalent to nothing.

Clarkson had the ball across the halfcourt, and the Warriors' defense was extremely urgent.

Clarkson handed the ball to Wang Shuang.

Wang Shuang's position to receive the ball is very bad.

Four or five steps from the three-point line, and the defender is Andre Iguodala.

sticks to him very tightly, Wang Shuang is not good at holding the ball.

Iguodala was in the finals last season because of the "restrictions" on James.

As a result, the FMVP was actually awarded to him.

It became one of the most incredible events in NBA history.

But no matter how controversial this award is.

Iguodala's defense - >>

[Reading updates load slowly, there are ads, chapters are incomplete, please exit Reading and read!] 】

Competence is unquestionable.

Wang Shuang wasn't stupid enough to challenge Iguodala's defense.

His heads-up ability doesn't have that level.

Wang Shuang passed the ball to Green who came over to answer very familiarly.

Then he went down the middle lane and made a cross double cover with Randolph.

After cutting to the basket, Green feigned a pass.

Then he broke through with the ball and smashed into a one-arm dunk!

"Green's slam buckle! Pretty! This ball is so beautiful! ”

This ball Randolph and Wang Shuang attracted the attention of the Warriors' defense.

Green seized the opportunity and broke past Barnes.

Gave the Warriors a heavy dunk to the basket.

The Lakers' bench was jubilant.

It's not just two points, it's a major morale boost.

Bryant sat on the bench and clenched his fists.

Wang Shuang and Green high-fived.

This ball is crucial.

Although Wang Shuang did not have any data in the account.

But his containment under the basket gave Green a chance to break through.

Then, the Warriors missed an outside jumper.

Randolph collects the rebound.

That's when the pressure on the Warriors is great.

Their margin for error becomes small.

And the Lakers stabilized their position and slowly advanced.

Randolph makes a basket.

Draymond Green used a defensive around the front.

Wang Shuang immediately came over and answered in a high position.

After receiving the ball, a high hoist directly to the inside line.

Breaking Green's loop, Randolph received the ball over to Barnes, who came to help defend it.

Layup!

"Beautiful pass, breaking Green's circle, Wang Shuang's pass is really bold, very bold. With two more points, the margin is back to 5 points. Bryant could rest off the court a little longer. ”

Yang Yi knew that Kobe Bryant could rest a little longer.

The situation was stabilized again.

Of course, the Warriors' counterattack didn't stop.

They managed to make a pass to the basket.

Iguodala catches the ball and makes a layup.

But right away, Wang Shuang grabbed the rebound in the front court under the basket.

Push away the defender and make an awkward throw with the left hand.

It's still in!

Wang Shuang's desperate frontcourt rebound.

For the Warriors' small lineup.

His frontcourt rebounds were a disaster.

Because this directly led to the Warriors' quick counterattack not being able to play.

"Let's take a look at the stats, this is Wang Shuang's eighth frontcourt rebound of the game! The first eight boards! ”

In fact, it is not that no team has thought of using this method against the Warriors before.

A big man in the inside clubbing, desperately grabbing rebounds.

But it didn't work, because the question is, how many can such a big man grab at a time?

Even if the Warriors use a small lineup, the protection of backcourt rebounds is not bad.

And when it comes to offense and defense, a big man on the inside is cumbersome.

will be rushed by the Warriors' five-small lineup and can't find the north.

Wang Shuang is different, this kid is not indiscriminate.

When it comes to rebounding, he's fiercer than a center.

But he plays as a small forward.

And the Warriors' five small ones are missing Curry, which is originally a bankrupt version of the five small ones.

The Warriors missed again from the outside.

The long rebound was then won by Wang Shuang.

Wang Shuang made a long pass to the frontcourt.

Clarkson catches the ball and goes straight to the basket and makes a layup!

The difference is back to 7 points!

It's back to the beginning.

Once again, the Warriors' counterattack was in vain.

Steve Cole could only call a timeout.

At this point, Bryant got up from the bench.

He's not going to play, he's going to give high-fives to his teammates.

"Well done, guys, well done!"

Kobe Bryant said excitedly.
