Chapter 44, you have the ability to shoot the ball!
Payton can still have 15+5 data in the regular season, but he was uncovered in the playoffs, and his average data per game dropped directly to 9+4, and he has long lost the appearance of a superstar.
But Payton still has the temper of a superstar.
It's just that I did Ma Long before, do you really think you are so good?
Payton, who focuses on the defensive end, is like a mad dog, frantically biting Mo Wen, even without the ball, he wants to give Mo Wen two blows.
Mo Wen didn't get used to him, playing ball and hitting people at the same time.
The two had no choice but to clash on the field even more intensely than the ball-handling players.
"Is that how you usually play basketball?"
Mo Chuang asked Bosh next to him curiously, this is a pinch and a trip, throwing his arms and elbows is almost a stick in a fight, right?
Bosh was also stunned, and he didn't know how to explain it, the wild fields were not so wild.
"Xiao Mo and Peyton are quite hardworking, don't say it, this finals have to be played like this! Don't deviate from Xiao Wang's lens, this is a precious record. ”
Zhang Weiping on the sidelines watched the heat boiling hotter, which is the competition between men.
Many Chinese viewers who have never watched basketball also watched Mo Wen play in front of the TV, and then they found that this so-called "playing basketball" does not seem to be the same as the game they remember.
The referee didn't care, Mo Wen and Payton looked like they were fighting fiercely, but they were still sober, at least they were playing basketball in their actions, and they didn't panic.
After only half a quarter, Mo Wen and Payton were already soaked in sweat when they left the game.
Lifting the clothes, you can clearly see several red marks, Mo Wen thought about it, and the potential rough stone that he got later must first fill the injury resistance, and then let Human help him find two exclusive masseurs, the fighting spirit is cool for a while, and the crematorium is off,
Mo Wen, who played 6 minutes in the second quarter, scored 3 of 5 shots, 6 points, 1 assist and 1 rebound, which looked good, but after Payton came on the court, his efficiency was only 1 of 3 shots, which was not high.
The Pistons as a whole are only tied with the Lakers at 41:41.
But the hidden dangers under this so-called "tie" are well known to the coaching staff on both sides.
O'Neal took a 3-minute break in the first half, Malone only rested for 4 minutes when he was injured, Kobe Bryant didn't rest for a minute, and Payton had the most rest, but how much offensive ability does he have left?
The Zen master knew, but did not dare to change it.
The depth of the Lakers' bench was far worse during Kobe's three-game winning streak.
If you don't change the starter, you will die slowly, and if you replace the substitute, you may die on the spot.
In the third quarter, O'Neal was still efficient, his free throws today were rare and accurate, and he made 5 of 6 free throws in the first three quarters, so that Ben couldn't cut the shark if he wanted to, so he could only rely on his own flesh to stand up to the black bear, and Rashid's help defense didn't play much role, and O'Neal, who was accurate in the free throws, was invincible.
But under the Pistons' forward defense, it is not easy for O'Neal to receive the ball, especially when Kobe Bryant also has a strong desire to attack.
It's not Kobe Bryant, this is also the Zen master's order, try to minimize O'Neal's physical exertion, give more play to O'Neal's involvement in the inner line, and let Kobe, who has better physical fitness, play more.
Fortunately, Larry Brown is a dead brain, and he still let the Pistons play at the same offensive rhythm as before, if the Pistons played a little faster, O'Neal's current weight and physical strength would definitely not last in the fourth quarter.
Mo Wen played 8 minutes in this quarter, Devin George has no offensive ability, and the Lakers' backup small forward Rush is in average condition today, Kobe Bryant does not block and play much, there is no single defensive pressure on the wing, and Larry Brown does not have so many worries about substitutions.
After the Pistons let Mo Wen attack for 4 rounds, the Zen master couldn't help but put Payton in front of Mo Wen, and Devin George didn't say that he behaved like air in front of Mo Wen, and it wasn't much worse.
Devon George is more suitable for defending Artest's kind of ordinary but physically strong brute beast, practicing with Kobe Bryant every day, he has a hand in his back defense, but Mo Wen can't defend him well if he doesn't fight him, his defensive judgment ability is extremely poor, and the defense of changing direction and blocking and dismantling is completely unqualified on the stage of the finals, and it just so happens that Mo Wen, who is weaker against him, is mainly practicing changing direction and blocking and dismantling in the dungeon space.
Mo Wen made 2 of 4 shots in a single quarter, plus made a beating foul, and easily scored 6 points; Kobe Bryant fought against Hamilton in various ways, and used up all eighteen martial arts to score 6 points in 3 of 8 shots.
In the second half of the third quarter, as the physical fitness of "F4" declined, the Lakers' efficiency became lower and lower, and the point difference began to widen little by little, until the end of the third quarter, the score of the two teams had come to 67:60, and the Pistons led by 7 points.
Most of the commentators in the studio are still more optimistic about the Lakers, even if the other three Lakers giants except Payton did not rest for a minute in the third quarter, they still believe that the Lakers can exert the power of "will" in the fourth quarter, play the role of superstars at critical moments, erase the point difference, and win the home court.
The fans on the sidelines were still cheering for the Lakers players, and the Lakers players also had expressions of death on their faces.
"Can it hold on, big truck?"
"Just kidding, if you don't reach the finish line, how can labor and management stop!"
Ma Long, who was still applying ice packs in front of him, stomped his feet pretending to be good, and his knees, which were supposed to be better, hurt again.
The Pistons' players were much more rude, and Big Ben took the lead in forming a circle and shouting, "those dogs!" ”
Dumas looked at the camera on the sidelines like a thief, and covered his heart, don't do it, brothers, you will be fined!
In the fourth quarter, the Lakers fans shouted louder and louder, but the difference between the two teams did not narrow.
The Lakers' triangle offense was smoothed out in front of the Pistons' bucket formation, and several superstars tried desperately to close the gap between the two teams.
In the end, when the final whistle blew, many fans covered their heads, still unable to believe that the Lakers had lost like this.
The magician in the studio didn't speak for the second half of the fourth quarter, just sat there with a headband and listened to Barkley and Smith explain from there, and the director gave him a close-up of his numb face bag from time to time, which was very effective.
Kobe Bryant let go of the Pistons in the first game, shooting 10 of 27, tying Artest's iron record in the playoffs this season, and under Kobe's "defense", O'Neal, who shot 81% from the field, only made 16 shots.
O'Neal is very strong, you have the ability to shoot with the ball!
Kobe Bryant's shooting percentage was not the lowest among the Lakers' main players, with Malone being 2-of-9, Payton being 1-of-5, and Fisher being 1-of-8.
On the other hand, the Pistons, Billups scored 22 points on 8-of-14 shooting and 4-of-5 free throws, Rashid scored 14 points on 3-of-4 and 6-of-6 free throws, Prince scored 10 points on 4-of-8 and free throws, and Big Ben was 3-of-7.
Off the bench, Mo Wen scored 15 points on 6-of-11 shooting, 1-of-1 three-pointers and 2-of-2 free throws, the second-highest scoring performance of the entire Pistons, which was perfect for a one-year player.
In many domestic canteens, after the competition, there is a spectacle of steamed buns flying all over the sky.
"Win, win, win! Piston Cow Beer, Mogo Cow Beer! ”
"It's too strong, it's too cowhideous, 15 points in the finals, Brother Mo is definitely the number one striker in China!"
"What the hell, don't eat, play basketball and go brothers!"
Many elementary and junior high school students who had physical education classes in the afternoon were still looking forward to the happy hour in the playground, but they were greeted by a smug homeroom teacher.
"Your PE teacher has something to do this afternoon, so this class will be temporarily changed to a Chinese (math/English) class."
But the sound of basketball coming from downstairs made the students feel insulted to their intelligence.
"The teacher lied, the physical education teacher was playing basketball below, I heard it!"
The classmate leaning against the window poked in, hey, isn't that the gym teacher standing on the basketball court?
