Chapter 437 Experience
Kobe Bryant's shot is purposely arced high, thus making the basketball appear to be in the air for a long time.Such a moment gives people a feeling of suffering for a long time.
Basketball, hollow into the net!
90-91, 35.7 seconds!
Magic Johnson and Pelinka stood in the tunnel, high-fiving.
Boss Jin was so excited that he high-fived Xu Wenye and Li Feng beside him, sharing the joy.The three of them were all wearing No. 24 jerseys. They were naturally very excited to see Kobe make a goal.
The Rockets still have two timeouts. In order to stabilize, they called out one of them and arranged offensive tactics.
Barkley didn't expect the game to develop like this, and said: "Kenny, to tell you the truth, I am very excited now and can't wait to see the result of this game. See whether the Lakers can pull back a city or the Rockets can directly Dangerously passed."
Kenny Smith said with a smile: "I still say the same thing, no one knows what will happen until the last moment of the game."
"I hope the Lakers can win this game, let us see how much ability Xu still has, otherwise it would be a pity." Barkley has always liked to express his feelings.
"You are a bit biased." Kenny Smith laughed when he heard Barkley's words.
The benches of the Lakers and Rockets were far less relaxed than the commentary seats. The coaches of both sides kept explaining the details of defense or offense, trying to close the game.This is a game that is basically related to the results of the entire series, and no one wants to give up easily.
D'Angelo Russell has been favored by Bickerstaff.He allowed Harden to break through to attract the defense, and Howard and Capela doubled to cover consecutively, creating offensive space for D'Angelo Russell.
Kobe thought of countless games in the past, trying to drive the impact of the pain out of his mind, but he could still feel the throbbing pain.But he ignored this feeling and began to guess the Rockets' offensive layout based on experience. Every Rockets player went through his mind, and finally landed on D'Angelo Russell.
After the timeout, players from both sides returned to the court, and the game continued at the last minute.
Rockets frontcourt ball!
Ariza served from the sideline of the front court and gave it to Harden at the top of the arc.
George stood in front of Harden's left, restricting his left, forcing him to break through to the unfamiliar right.This is a defensive strategy that Xu Tian often uses, and he can often achieve quite good results by virtue of his height advantage.
According to Bickerstaff's tactical arrangement, Harden went to the right to break through, attracting the defensive attention of the three Lakers, while paying attention to D'Angelo Russell's movement.As long as there is an opportunity, he will pass it as soon as possible.
Bryant saw Howard and Capela set screens for D'Angelo Russell, and immediately realized what was about to happen, and moved a short distance ahead of time, near the possible passing lane.
D'Angelo Russell has no experience in the playoffs, and Harden was entangled by the three and was eager to play the ball. The combination of these two made the pass go wrong and was intercepted by Kobe who predicted in advance.
When Bickerstaff saw Kobe complete the steal, he jumped up anxiously, but there was nothing he could do. He danced and directed the players to retreat quickly, so as not to be scored by the Lakers.Every point at this time is crucial, and the offense cannot be easily released.
George attracted a double-team defense, while Kobe received Ariza's close and tough defense, but in this way, Nick Young was emptied.
Kobe received a pass from George, kept the ball, and hit the ground to Nick Young who was open.
Capela rushed over to defend, but Nick Young didn't make a jump shot. Capela, who had passed the defense, dribbled the ball into the penalty area guarded only by Howard.
Tyson Chandler, McGee and Nick Young were in different positions, disrupting Howard's defensive attention and weakening his defensive power.
Howard didn't quite believe that Nick Young would pass the ball. He took a step with his right foot and faced Nick Young who was dribbling the ball. He lowered his center of gravity and stared at him.
Nick Young had seen Howard's defensive coverage at the peak, and he didn't dare to challenge easily at the last moment of the game. He happened to see McGee behind Howard pointing to the sky with his right hand, understood it, and threw the lob pass directly.
Howard has a lot of defensive experience. He saw that Nick Young's throwing angle was wrong, so he quickly jumped sideways and tried to intercept the pass midway.
Since McGee dared to basically bet on his own future alley catch, he naturally wouldn't let it fail. With a longer wingspan than Howard, he took the lead in receiving the basketball and smashed it to the basket recklessly.
Howard has a bit of the character of an old-school player. At the beginning, he refused to let go of his dignity and go around to defend Yao Ming, but now he refuses to let McGee score the lob easily.But regardless of the former or the latter, he has not received good results.
2+1!
The auditorium at the Staples Center seemed to have set off a huge white wave, and almost all the fans stood up excitedly, cheering and celebrating the goal.
Kobe was unable to move, clenched his right fist at the top of the arc, gritted his teeth to celebrate.
Both McGee and Tyson Chandler looked very excited, and the two passionately bumped their chests to celebrate the goal completed by one of the twin towers.
Bickerstaff also didn't know what to expect, but with 15.3 seconds remaining, he could only call a timeout after McGee hit an additional penalty.
93-91, 15.3 seconds!
Howard, frustrated at missing McGee's alley-oop, walked off the court a little silent.
D'Angelo Russell was not replaced, but was still able to stay on the court and feel the most critical moment.He was last year's No. [-] and deserves such training.
At the end of the timeout, the Lakers players touched their left hands together, encouraged each other in a low voice, and then stepped back to the court.
The Rockets sent the ball up front!
Harden was closely guarded by George and couldn't get rid of it in a hurry, and he couldn't receive a pass from Ariza who was serving.
D'Angelo Russell was more active than Harden, using the screen to get rid of Kobe's close defense, circle to the top of the arc, and receive the serve before the five-second serve violation.
Warren has replaced Nick Young, and quickly chased in front of D'Angelo Russell, relying on his height advantage for close defense.
D'Angelo Russell is the No. [-] pick after all, and his overall talent is still stronger than Warren, whose defensive skills are not well formed. He changed direction and dribbled the ball to the top of the left arc.
Kobe put too much defensive attention on D'Angelo Russell, Warren flanked him, and George stuck to Harden trying to get rid of him.As a result, Ariza was placed in a vacant state.
D'Angelo Russell, also a tall point guard, spotted the potentially fleeting open spot, hit the ball with his left hand, and passed it into Ariza's hands like a scalpel.
McGee is too far away from Ariza. Although he knows that he needs to guard against three-pointers, he still has no time to quickly defend against them. He hesitates and can only stand still and watch Ariza shoot an open three-pointer.
