"Kobe Bryant vs Wang Chao, 20 points on 18 shots vs. 24 points on 17 shots, an unexpected result."

"The Suns took the lead in the match point 3:0, and even without Stoudemire, they are still the top powerhouse!"

"Cornered Lakers and Kobe Bryant, can they get a rare win at home and avoid being swept out?"

After the G3 game, no one thought that the Lakers still had a chance to break through from the first round, and the only suspense was whether they would be swept by the Suns.

This result is completely different from another time and space, the original Lakers should have taken a 2-1 lead after three games, and further consolidated the advantage to 3-1 in the fourth game, and it seems that the victory is in hand and the Wyvern Rider face is directly overturned.

The appearance of Wang Chao changed everything.

After all, after three games, his average points per game has unconsciously increased to 20.6 points, ranking second in the Suns, and only one point away from Nash, who averages 21.6 points per game.

And even if Wang Chao's three-point shooting rate declined due to the impact of the third game, the overall shooting rate remained above 50%.

Super high efficiency, 20+ scores, if you cover Wang Chao's name, I don't know that I think it's thunder. When was Allen traded to the Suns?

In the regular season, Wang Chao played as a substitute and got a lot of suitable three-point shooting opportunities, and the average score per game was a little higher in the past, but in the playoffs, and played as a starter for three consecutive games, Wang Chao's data did not decline but rose.

Especially in the third game, Wang Chao forced a shot in front of Kobe Bryant many times, facing the opponent's defense, and it can almost be said that he scored 24 points on Kobe's head.

Any media has to admit that Wang Chao has become an important scoring point for the Suns, and he is also a top scorer that other teams in the league must guard against seriously.

It may not be appropriate to describe it as a battle to become famous, but Wang Chao has indeed improved his reputation qualitatively by relying on this battle with Kobe.

At the post-game press conference, Suns head coach D'Antoni couldn't close his smile from ear to ear.

"Wang Chao is really a player who can surprise people, in the first half, when the team's offense was not smooth, he said to me at halftime, hoping that I can give him a chance to prove himself, so there was a scene of him and Kobe Bryant in the second half."

"He's got his wish and proved how good he is, and I'll give him more opportunities to show himself in the next games."

Subsequently, D'Antoni commented on the opponent Lakers.

"Kobe Bryant is definitely the strongest scoring guard in the league at the moment, he has a super scoring ability comparable to Jordan, and the picture of 81 points in a single game in the regular season still echoes in my mind, but unfortunately he is still missing a Pippen next to him, otherwise it is really hard to say who wins and who loses."

At this time, D'Antoni was already putting himself in the perspective of the winner, commenting on his opponent with high spirits.

But facts have proved that don't pretend to be forced, pretending to be forced will be struck by lightning.

D'Antoni was just finished, and the team was immediately beaten by the Lakers in Game 4 two days later.

On April 30, Bryant, who was cornered, finally bottomed out and broke out.

In the face of the Suns' multi-person encirclement, Kobe Bryant has never been intimidated, but the previous large number of shots were not particularly high, but this game is different.

Kobe Bryant's hand feeling is fully recovered, and it can even be described as a burst of fire, no matter how he throws.

In the entire G4, Kobe Bryant played the whole 48 minutes, hitting 20 of 35 shots, 5 of 8 three-pointers, 5 of 6 free throws, and scored an astonishing 50 points, 8 rebounds and 5 assists, and single-handedly led the Lakers to win the game 108-96, turning the total score to 3-1 and refusing to be swept out.

The game was completely reduced to Kobe Bryant's solo show.

For the Lakers, Nash had a double-double of 19 points and 13 assists, Marion had 20 points and 12 rebounds, and Barbosa had 22 points.

As for Wang Chao, he shot 8 of 15 in the game, including 7 of 12 three-pointers, and scored 23 points.

In this game, Kobe Bryant put all his energy on offense, but he didn't have the energy to focus on Wang Chao, but after three games in a row, the Lakers players would find some routines even if they were wasted, and they would not let Wang Chao shoot three-pointers so easily.

This game failed to win, but it was not a special loss for Wang Chao, because after this game, Wang Chao's average points per game had surpassed Nash and became the scoring champion of the series team, although it only exceeded 0.25 points.

In the next game, Wang Chao only needs to make sure that the score is not lower than Nash, and the system task is stable.

As for Marion, Wang Chao originally regarded it as the biggest obstacle to the task, but at present, the average score per game in four games is only 18.25, which is not as high as Nash.

The main reason Marion didn't play well was because he played most of the game against Lamar of the Lakers. Odom counterpoint.

Although Odom has a lot of problems, he is distracted on the field, he does not do his job, and he lacks the desire to win, but his talent is real, which is after all the guy who has high hopes that he can become a second magician in the future.

Offensive end-of-line aside, Odom wasn't very strong on the defensive end, because his defense was limited by physical conditions, his defensive interior strength was a little tight, and his defensive outside speed was a little weaker.

But when the opponent is a player like Marion, he just happens to be in Odom's most comfortable position.

Marion's strength is similar to Odom's, his speed is not much ahead, he is still at a disadvantage in terms of height, and he really doesn't take much advantage in the matchup.

If there is no Wang Chao, under normal circumstances, the Suns and Lakers will play seven games, and Odom and Marion's personal data will be 19 points, 11 rebounds and 5 assists and 18 points, 9.4 rebounds and 1.7 assists respectively.

"You just need to score more than Nash......"

As soon as Wang Chao thought that the third talent was beckoning to him, he felt full of motivation.
