Chapter 436 Willpower
George sent the frontcourt sideline ball and passed it to Kobe who resolutely went to the top of the arc.
Kobe received the serve, bent over to dribble at the top of the arc, forgot all the pain, and made a breakthrough with his feet.But he ignored the decline in athletic ability, he still didn't find room for a breakthrough, and stopped the ball before the free throw line.
With the help of Tyson Chandler's cover, Nick Young went to the top of the arc and clapped his hands vigorously, attracting Kobe's attention.
Kobe saw Nick Young and passed the ball without much hesitation.Then he continued to attack the inside line, trying to grab an offensive rebound.
The basketball was thrown by Nick Young, with a spin, it entered the net beautifully!
84-88, 1 minutes and 27 seconds!
The host at the Staples Center will hardly have any passionate moments, saying Nick Young's name in a bland manner, and broadcasting the goal.
Magician and Pelinka stood at the end of the player tunnel, afraid to go to the court, and did not want to go back to the locker room, just stood side by side to watch the final stage of the game.
The fans at the Staples Center were more determined than the management, bursting out unprecedented cheers and defensive voices, giving maximum support to the players on the field.This is something they can do, and naturally they will not refuse.
George took out the strongest physical confrontation, and collided with Harden forcefully, blocking his starting speed.
McGee temporarily gave up marking Capela, moved decisively to the back of George's side, and tried to limit it.He didn't know whether such a choice was correct, it was completely out of instinct.
Harden has a high ball quotient, but he also has the habit of looking for fouls in physical contact situations. He shot against George and wanted a defensive foul.But here is the playoffs, and it has entered the final moment, plus it is the Staples Center, the home of the Lakers. The combination of three factors prompted the referee not to blow the whistle and let the game continue.
McGee occupies a favorable position, exerts force with both feet, straightens his right hand, directly intercepts Harden's deformed shot, and grabs the ball with a catch.
Harden didn't quite understand why the referee didn't make a penalty. He spread his hands and frowned to ask, but the referee ignored him and had to retreat to the backcourt.
Bryant stayed in the backcourt, received a pass from McGee, limped the ball upfield, dribbled a step up the halfway line, and tried to set the offense.
Nick Young circled two screens again, went straight to the top of the arc, and received Kobe's second pass.He is a nerve knife on the offensive end, he really has a touch, and he doesn't care about the rest.
All the sounds seemed to be very far away from Nick Young, all he could hear was his slightly rapid breathing, and the subtle sound of the basketball rubbing against the air.
At this point Nick Young became the center of the court and attracted enough attention.
Under the attention of many players, the basketball draws a rainbow arc and hits the net with precision!
87-88, 1 minutes and 13 seconds!
Xu Tian and Maples watched the game in the locker room, couldn't hold back their emotions anymore, and excitedly clapped their hands in celebration.
The fans in the Staples Center were more excited than they were, and gave the warmest cheers to Nick Young who retreated and ran with his arms open.
Bickerstaff didn't expect that Nick Young could hit two consecutive three-pointers at this moment. He was a little at a loss, so he quickly called a timeout and tried to make adjustments.
Howard hadn't touched the ball in the past few tens of seconds, and he was not in a good mood. When he walked off the court, he had another quarrel with Harden.The two of them no longer cared much about each other's face, and didn't think about covering it up at all.
Jason Terry hurriedly intervened, separating the two people who had disagreements, trying to maintain stability within the team.This is also the most critical moment for the Rockets, and basically nothing can be lost.
The Lakers cheerleaders were instructed by the management to try to remove the sexy moves, keep the dance clean and tidy, and give people a hint of passion.This small arrangement still has a certain effect.
Xu Wenye and Li Feng had Lakers season tickets, and they were still sitting next to Boss Jin. The three of them couldn't sit still for a long time, and they were so nervous that they didn't know what to do.Basically all the fans feel similar to them, and they are also in a state of being at a loss.
Kobe still took advantage of the timeout to apply ice to his injured ankle, but his ankle was already swollen, which could be clearly seen through the socks.The media broadcast camera was aimed at his ankle, showing this situation in front of all fans.
All major forums are lamenting that Kobe is basically unable to play in this situation, but he can still insist on staying on the court, and his willpower is absolutely incomparable.
Xu Tian stood up in the locker room, without pacing back and forth, with his arms folded around his chest, he stood quietly watching the final stage of the game.
When George walked back to the court, he saw Kobe's ankle and felt extremely shocked. He didn't expect Kobe to be able to play in this state.The pain in this, I am afraid only Kobe himself can understand.
Not only did Kobe's ankle hurt, but his knees also began to ache, and his shoulders also had abnormal conditions. Basically, there was no pain in his whole body.This is an injury accumulated from playing games for many years, and it showed up in the case of high-intensity confrontation and long-term playing.
Harden received the sideline ball from the backcourt, brought it to the frontcourt at a slow speed, faced George at the top of the arc, and bent over to try to break through.This time, he encountered a more aggressive defense than ever.
After George saw Kobe's ankle, his fighting spirit was suddenly stimulated, and he had already passed the critical point of fatigue, but he felt much more relaxed than before.Naturally exert a strong physical confrontation to avoid being held by Harden to complete the breakthrough.
Harden shifted his left hand and passed the ball to D'Angelo Russell who came out.
D'Angelo Russell also didn't hesitate at all. Facing Nick Young, who quickly made a defense, he raised his hand and scored a three-pointer.
The basketball passed Nick Young's defense and made a hollow hit!
87-91, 52 seconds!
Scott stood courtside and decided not to call a timeout.He had a hunch that he might need to buy time at the last moment, so he reserved the last timeout.
In order to relieve Kobe's burden, George took the ball to the frontcourt, called for a screen at the top of the arc, and tried to break through the Rockets' double-team defense against him.
The Rockets' execution was not firm enough, but they refused to let go of George's double-team defense. Ariza and D'Angelo Russell resolutely double-teamed and did not give any chance to penetrate.This is the longest defense the Rockets have implemented, and it still has a good effect.
George dribbled the ball in a physical confrontation, and suddenly felt a firm gaze. Out of the corner of his eye, he saw Kobe standing at the top of the arc on the left, with his hands concealed and stretched forward.For some reason, he felt an unusual firmness.
Kobe successfully received the pass from George, faced Harden's defense, and tried his best to take off, making a difficult fadeaway jumper!
McGee, Tyson Chandler, Howard and Capela, the four of them were strongly stuck in the penalty area, and the sound of muscle collision was clearly transmitted to the ears of the fans through the loudspeaker on the backboard.They unconsciously became nervous, not only about the result of this shot, but also about the uncertain future of the home team.
