In the third quarter of the seven-tie break between the Lakers and the Celtics, the Lakers only played less than three minutes before recovering a 10-point difference and chasing the big score on the court to 62-67.

Because judging from the game, the Lakers didn't actually catch up with the score so quickly because they played better than the Celtics.

Yes, in the eyes of all spectators, the Lakers didn't play much better than the Celtics after the start of the third quarter.

The first three points, Jokic's back-to-back three-pointer, was that other Lakers players didn't dare to shoot, and the offense was killed, and it was handed over to Jokic, who couldn't shoot in the end.

Then the 2+1 behind Jokic, the throwing hit, the same luck, the fool could see that Jokic was going to make James foul, threw one at random, and then, it hit.

As for Seth Curry's two counterattack three-pointers, this is really no way, but why was Seth Curry able to play a counterattack?

This is completely LeBron James's lack of concentration, as for James undercover, although this thing looks similar, it is still somewhat debatable.

If James was really undercover, he wouldn't have worked so hard in the first half.

Therefore, for the time being, everyone still thinks that James should have led too much in the first half and floated in the second half, so although the Celtics played a tactical system, they were not able to play effectively.

Especially after Paul's one-pass operation, the audience at the scene felt that all the blame was on James, not the Celtics playing badly.

For a while, almost all eyes were on James, which made James very stressful now.

No matter how much resentment he felt against Paul, in the end James had no choice but to admit his mistake to his teammates around him, and at the same time apologize to Monty Williams on the sidelines.

After James apologized, Chris Paul was the first to run over and pat James on the back, and James also showed a very ugly smile at Paul's kindness.

There was no way, even if he was unhappy with Paul in his heart, he knew that it was impossible to break with Paul at this time.

He's going to win this game, he's going to have to wash his name, so now he needs to be patient.

After Paul did all this, he immediately looked at Monty Williams.

In fact, at this time, it was not only Paul who looked at Monty Williams for the first time, but Du Kang actually looked at Monty Williams for the first time.

From God's point of view, Du Kang does not believe that James has become a hero because of Wade.

Of course, he didn't believe that Paul was completely unselfish.

If Paul had really been believed, Dukang would not have deliberately put out this lineup that tempted Paul to attack in the third quarter.

Now, Dukang looks at Monty Williams to see how much Monty Williams trusts these Celtic players.

Now that Paul and James have stated that there is no problem playing like this, will Monty Williams pause because he was chased 10 points in a row, change his style of play, and refuse the players' desire to continue playing without a pause?

And the assistant coaches around Monty Williams are now like ants on a hot pan.

The Celtics celebrities on the sidelines were also scratching their ears and cheeks in a hurry at this time.

The difference of 15 points turned into a 5-point difference in an instant, and who can stand it.

And the expressions on the faces of Xiao Hua and the capital representatives beside David Stern also became extremely difficult to look at at this time.

They also have no idea why James suddenly went undercover.

They weren't above the basketball pundits, but they knew James wasn't a serious hero and could do some weird things.

However, they really don't understand how James could do such a thing at this time?

They also didn't believe that James suddenly couldn't think of going undercover, and they knew better than anyone how important this game was to James.

No matter how much James likes to say strange things and do strange things, he won't mess around at this time.

Then the only possibility is that James is careless, James has careless genes, fifty times stronger than before, and now I am not the same person I used to be, I want to shelter you under my wings and so on, James likes to float at every turn.

But James is very uncomfortable, okay!

If it weren't for Monty Williams standing in the Celtics dugout, they would really be scared to pee right now!

So, Monty, call a timeout now and give us a good knock on James!

Then, under everyone's eyes, Monty Williams did not call a timeout, not only did he not call a timeout, Monty Williams also walked to the sidelines and applauded the Celtics players on the court.

"Oh my God, the Lakers are chasing 10 points in a row, and Monty Williams actually thinks the Celtics players on the court are doing a good job!!"

"Monty Williams has no intention of taking a timeout!"

Monty Williams didn't ask for a timeout, a result that made Dukang stunned for a moment.

Finally, Du Kang's eyes narrowed.

In his expectation, he had 3-5 minutes to chase points in the third quarter of this game.

Now, he's sure he'll have five minutes to chase the score!

However, Du Kang was not excited or excited because his team had a longer time to chase points.

Just because you have a longer time to chase a score doesn't mean you can catch up with the score.

But......

"Magical Monty, it's really always a huge surprise for me."

No matter what the last five minutes were like, however, Monty Williams's choice really surprised Du Kang, his lifelong enemy, was indeed very different.

And after getting Monty Williams as an option, Chris Paul, who has been worried on the field, finally breathed a sigh of relief.

He was under too much pressure.

After the beginning of the third quarter, because he had other ideas, he was under a lot of pressure, like a child who had done something wrong, afraid of being discovered by his parents.

So in the face of the crisis, he chose to betray James without hesitation, even if he was discovered, it was James's pot, not his own.

Now, Monty Williams' choice has made Chris Paul breathe a sigh of relief, the kind of complete relief.

The game resumes.

Look at the big score on the sidelines at this time.

At 62-67, the Celtics' lead was reduced to just five points.

Chris Paul clenched his fists.

"Monty trusts us so much, even if we have other ideas, we have to win this game and tell Monty and the world that Monty has no problem trusting us!"

Chris Paul said this, still so high-minded, so that the other Celtics players around him looked at James for the first time, this is Paul beating James, Paul thinks James has other ideas!

James played so well in the first half and then had some other thoughts at the start of the second half, which is understandable.

Yes, people have other ideas.

As for James undercover, they still don't believe it.

At the very least, it is still impossible to find out James's motive for going undercover.

Once again, Paul was quite embarrassed to use James to carry the blame to brush up his prestige as a leader, but now after using it too much, Paul is proficient.

So, after beating James, Paul patted James on the back again.

"LeBron, if you win this game in the end, whether you win the MVP or Antonio wins the MVP, I will be the first to applaud you! Of course, the same goes for everyone else. ”

What the hell?!

Chris found out that I was going to grab the MVP?!

James was shocked, and then saw that flickering look in Paul's eyes, as if to say, LeBron, I know your loyalty, I know you don't think so.

Seeing Paul's reassuring eyes, James knew he was thinking too much.

Paul is messing with this stupid boy with thick eyebrows!

Sure enough, after Paul finished speaking, thick eyebrows were the first to speak.

"Chris is right, winning this game is the first element, personal honor is under victory and championship, only when you win the championship, personal honor is meaningful."

Paul's lofty speech, of course, was very moved.

As the first henchman of the magical Monty in the Celtics, he certainly needs to stand on the interests of the team.

Although the play played by Paul and James is fake, the effect is still very good.

The game continued to start and Celtic went back on the attack.

This time Paul didn't attack personally, and this time Paul didn't pretend to block with James, but gave James a look and really blocked with James.

After James blocked Seth Curry, Chris Paul faced Ibencus' defense and pressed Ibencs to the basket with two consecutive false feints.

These big men of the Ibanks and Lakers defend Paul, both defending Paul's shots, not Paul's breakaways.

Because it can't be attached, it is impossible to prevent Paul's breakthrough, Paul has good skills, he is short, and he can't get it.

So, give Paul a little space to break through, but don't give Paul room to shoot, forcing Paul to pass the ball last.

Let James either have a thick eyebrow or someone else to finish.

It didn't seem like a good fit, but the first half was actually good, and if it weren't for Jeff Green's four three-pointers, the Lakers' defense would have been successful.

As long as Paul doesn't break through the Lakers' defense and can't play his own individual offense, no matter how much he passes, Bushy Eyebrows and James will go to the basket to challenge Garnett or Jokic, or the two of them will shoot outside against Seth Curry or other small men.

It's all chances, but such opportunities can't kill the Lakers.

If there is no variable of Jeff Green, even if the Lakers seal a lot of their offense, they are actually five or five with the Lakers.

After taking Ebanks out of the interior loop, Paul once again completely disrupted the Lakers' defense, and then, Paul hit the basketball in James' hand.

James received Paul's pass with his back to Curry and broke through Seth Curry with a back-to-back turn.

The Lakers have Jokic and Garnett under the basket, and it's not appropriate to go in like that.

But now, he needs to show his faithfulness once again!

Can't be cowardly!

James disregards the risk of being blocked by Garnett, and he is a hard guy against Garnett!

In the end, with Garnett almost about to be blocked, James suddenly turned the ball into a pass and passed the ball to the thick eyebrows who cut in.

Thick eyebrows bypassed Jokic's defense and dunked after receiving this suicidal pass from James!

62 to 69!

Celtic score again!

And this time the Celtics scored very well.

Paul and James were not greedy, and finally completely untied the Lakers' defense and scored this crucial two points.

After the Celtics scored this time, they once again let go of the hearts of the Celtics fans and celebrities on the sidelines.

After the thick eyebrows scored, he also pulled up James on the ground for the first time, and then high-fived Paul who came over.

The scene of unity on the Celtic side was as if all the chemistry had returned.

And Monty Williams, who was on the sidelines, also laughed and applauded.

As for the commentators who were still worried just now, they once again touted Monty Williams at this time.

"In this world, only Monty Williams can make such a decision, in the face of Coach D, when the unexpected appears, you must not panic, Monty Williams can make the most correct choice every time, this is the first coach in the history of the NBA in the future!

Now, the pressure is once again on the Lakers' side, and if there is no opportunity to break quickly, the Lakers will not be able to beat the Celtics in a positional battle!!

Coach D and the Lakers' luck, it won't always be there! ”

The Celtics once again scored two points, and the hearts of Lakers fans on the sidelines also hung in the air.

On the court, the Lakers' players don't seem to be affected.

As for Coach D, who was focused on by the whole world, at this time, Coach D walked to the sidelines, seemed to say something to Jokic who was passing by, and then after speaking, he smiled and patted Jokic on the back.

James, who watched this scene the whole time, looked disdainful.

"Hmph, it's just pretending to be easy!"

However, James was very unhappy with Jokic's performance in this game, especially in the third quarter.

After the start of the third quarter, he always felt that his ball quotient was crushed by Jokic.

He is one of the players with the highest ball quotient in the NBA, how can he be constantly humiliated by a young man in the ball quotient?

This time, he also has to prevent Jokic from catching the ball!

Since Jokic always humiliates him after receiving the ball, then don't let Jokic receive the ball this time, I'll see what you do!

"Oh my God, James got around Jokic!!"

On the sidelines, Gasol, who is a Lakers celebrity, looked at James's front wrapping around Jokic on the court, and suddenly remembered himself, James's forward wrapping skills are average, but this guy's physical talent is excellent, and that kind of crazy wrapping around is still very annoying.

James's circle was the same as Sakuragi Hanamichi, and Kanan, who was ready to pass the ball to Jokic, wondered if there was an afterimage.

Kanan didn't dare to pass, his pass was not that good.

However, at this time, Coach D on the sidelines was telling him to pass the ball!

Kanan gritted his teeth and hit the basketball in his hand at Jokic.

"This ball is mine!"

Kanan's pass must have been high.

And because the pass is not so accurate, it is a bit high.

At this time, it is necessary to test the prediction of the receiver.

Of course, James also needs to anticipate.

It's not good to get stuck in front of Jokic, he's not as tall as Jokic, this ball is so high, if he can't catch it in front of him, he will end up receiving it by Jokic behind him.

James was anticipating Kanan's ball.

And Jokic is also anticipating the path of Kanan's pass.

Interestingly, James opted for his back to the three-point line and faced the basket, while Jokic turned around and chose to have his back to the basket and face the three-point line.

James felt he was gifted and athletic, and he took a step in Kanan's direction.

As for Jokic, he took a step outside.

The predictions of the two are almost completely opposite!

Seeing this scene, the fans, commentators and experts at the scene all exclaimed.

In fact, not only James, they also found that after the start of the second half, Jokic's ball quotient was strong, almost pressing James to rub.

And this time, it is definitely a direct duel between the two players!

"James is going to get this ball!!"

Seeing that the ball was about to come to his head, James jumped on the spot and wanted to stop the basketball directly!

However, something happened to everyone's surprise!

"Didn't catch it, James could only tap a little!!!"

James, who wanted to catch the ball, didn't catch it, and finally could only choose a point to his teammates, but the point was changed, and there was no point in the right direction, and the ball flew directly to Jokic, who was standing outside the three-point line at this time!!

Seeing this scene, almost everyone at the scene was dumbfounded!!

Jokic has long known that James can't catch it, he can only click once, and he can only point to this position?!!!

How is this possible!!

However, Jokic did catch the ball from outside the three-point line!

Then, with almost no one defending in front, Jokic received a pass from James, adjusted it, and threw the basketball in his hand!

Brush it up!

Three-point hit!

65 to 69!

The difference between the two sides came to 4 points.

At this point, just three minutes into the third quarter.

The silent scene exploded in an instant!

The Lakers fans chanted Jokic's name at the encouragement of Coach D on the sidelines.

And Jokic, who hit this shot, looked at James, who was stunned at this time, and didn't say a word like before.

Looking at this familiar opponent, Jokic finally opened his mouth.

'Thank you for the assist, it was a great pass.'

“……”

In that moment, Rudy Gay, who came to help the defense, even seemed to hear James's heartbreak.

At this time, James was really trembling with anger.

It's okay to be by Paul just now.

Now, even a mere parallel trade champion looks down on him the most, and he has beaten his parallel top seller so humiliated!

Can this be endured?!

Of course, this is unbearable!!

"Chris, next round, give me the ball!!"

Then, in the next round, after Paul and Bushy Eyebrows blocked and dismantled, he stepped back and shot in the face of Jokic's defense......

Brush it up!

Hit!

Looking at Paul, who was worshiped and cheered by the Celtics fans in the audience, the angry James opened his mouth wide and finally couldn't speak in anger.

There seemed to be a heart-wrenching voice ringing in my ears.

"James, you're just a thief now, do you think you're still the protagonist?"

You, now just a thief......

And also a thief who relies on others......
