NBA: Top 6D talents to start

All the main players of both sides played, but on the Suns side, Ginobili remained on the court.

There were 5 minutes and 27 seconds left in the second quarter.

After Weidong dribbled the ball for halftime, the Lakers began to double-team. Ginobili came out to catch the ball, and then Weidong accelerated to get rid of the defense of James and Clarkson.

Ginobili passed the ball to Weidong again.

"Shh!!!"

The emergency stop jump shot outside the three-point line, the action is still so handsome, the basketball is hollow into the net!

50:35! ! !

The Suns widened the point difference to 15 points.

"Run! Run! Run!"

"Pass! Pass! Pass!"

"Shoot! Shoot! Shoot!"

Wharton kept shouting, passionately urging the players to run tactics.

Contrast Gentry.
Since returning to the home court, he has been sitting on the bench with a godlike presence, seldom speaking loudly, and the posture of holding a thermos bottle looks so gentle.

69:61! ! !

At the end of the first half, the Lakers trailed by 8 points.

The offensive efficiency of the Suns is too high, but it will also allow Irving and Davis to score easily when defending, and the two teams played against each other.

Home team locker room.

Gentry has already made tea, "Don't play in the second half of the game, Dong Ge must hold the ball more!"

"The biggest threat to the Lakers is my passing, not the offense."

Wei Dong said: "If you want to win this game, you must run out of tactics. Scola and Jokic, you two should play more off-ball pick-and-rolls for Seth."

Why were the Suns invincible last season?
Because Curry, Thompson, and Durant are among the top players in the league in their off-ball running positions, and Curry and Durant are members of the 180 club. Coupled with Weidong's passing skills, this is almost invincible .

Away locker room.

Wharton looked at the technical statistics and was silent for a while before saying: "There is no problem with our tactics. We will continue to double-team Weidong in the second half. Even if we let him pass the ball, he will not be able to score!"

"Coach, sometimes passing is scarier than scoring."

Rondo reminded Walton that he couldn't understand this. Scoring counts as a goal, and passing the ball is the rarest thing.

"I agree with what you said."

Walton did not refute Rondo, but said: "Let Weidong pass the ball, he just leads the team forward, but let Weidong score, he can kill the game."

Owen said: "We only need to get more points than the Suns to win this game!"

After thinking and discussing, the Lakers decided to continue the defensive strategy of the first half, continue to double-team Weidong and let him pass the ball to prevent him from scoring!
Obviously, the Lakers' tactic is effective!
The game has become a tug-of-war since the third quarter, and the exhaustion of physical strength has also led to a drop in shooting percentage. The Lakers have Irving and James who can break through for layups.

The Suns here.

Weidong is the only one left to support the veterans like Ginobili and Scola, who are powerless, while the rookies like Jokic and Booker are too immature.

116:119! ! !

With 1 minute and 17 seconds left in the game, the Suns trailed by 3 points.

Lakers offense.

Irving broke through for a layup, Weidong gave up defending James, rushed to the basket and gave Irving a big cap.

The basketball was taken by James, and James got up and dunked!

However, Weidong took off again the moment he landed, facing James and blocked his dunk!

"Snapped!!!"

This physical confrontation caused James to fall to the ground!
The referee hesitated for a moment and didn't blow the whistle to block the block just now. Weidong didn't make any obvious foul moves. The reason why James fell was because he was at a disadvantage in the power competition with Weidong, and the Suns were behind. Punishing Weidong for a foul is not good for the Suns, the key is the suspicion of a black whistle.

Thinking of the referees who blew the whistle before, tonight's chief referee shivered.

James didn't say anything. After falling down, he got up and went to the backcourt to chase. Ginobili got the ball and went on a fast break!

Weidong and James chased after him at the same time.
Ginobili looked back and made a very bold decision, he threw the ball to the basket! ! !
Because James is too close to him, it is easy for James to block the layup at this time. If he dunks. With his current physical fitness, Ginobili was worried that he would not be able to dunk, so he simply threw the ball to the basket and let Weidong Come grab it with James.

"My Nima"

"My Nima"

Weidong and James made displeased voices at the same time, and Ginobili is quite capable of throwing the blame away.

Although upset, Weidong and James jumped almost at the same time.

"Snapped!"

Weidong was the first to touch the basketball, grabbed the basketball and used the inertia of his body to glide forward for half a meter.

"Bang!!!"

Weidong made a dunk and James slid past him.
118:119! ! !

With the last 53 seconds left before the end of the game, the Suns trailed by 1 point.

"Defense!"

"Defense!"

"Defense!"

The home audience followed the live DJ and cheered loudly for the Suns!
They don't want to see that the Suns have not lost two games in a row in the Western Conference Finals for many years.

If the Suns want to win this game, the most important thing is to defend this time. Only when they defend, and then give the ball to Weidong, the Suns will have a chance to overtake the score.

"This goal must be scored!"

Walton also shouted loudly, "LeBron, you control the rhythm, you must not make mistakes!"

quiet down
Only the sound of the basketball landing and bouncing, and the sound of sneakers rubbing against the floor echoed in the arena.

James dribbled the ball steadily to the frontcourt, and Weidong set up a defensive posture. Without a suitable opportunity, Weidong didn't dare to steal rashly. He was also worried about making mistakes!

Once the Lakers score this goal, the Suns are really in danger.

"7!"

"6!"

Seeing that there were 5 seconds left in the shot clock, Irving came out and yelled for James to pass the ball to him.

"It's now."

James' passing action and Weidong's stealing action happened almost simultaneously.

"Snapped!"

Weidong stepped on the ground with his left foot, stretched his long arm forward, and poked the basketball into the air!

Subsequently
Wei Dong pounced forward, protecting the basketball under his body, got up and the defender was ready to make a fast break, but James also defended him and grabbed Wei Dong!
"Beep!!!"

The referee's whistle sounded.

Watching this scene, Wharton did not speak. Weidong was able to steal because of his strong personal ability. After all, Weidong holds the record for steals in a single game!
And James' choice is not wrong.

Once Weidong got up and made a fast break, no one on the Lakers could catch up, so James decisively fouled Weidong.
