Chapter 90 10 points in a single quarter!
Before the start of the game, the "Los Angeles Times" published a sentence of Phil Jackson's words: "The Spurs players will remember last year's 4-2 elimination of our victory, but they should not forget that they lost to us twice in a row."

This sentence is exactly what Sun Zhuo said to Zen Master before the Lakers met the Spurs for the first time in the regular season. Zen Master liked this sentence very much and used it to motivate the players.

Both the Lakers and Spurs are championship teams. They have won all the championships in the post-Jordan era, so even if it is only the Western Conference semifinals, they have attracted all media reports and attention.

At the Spurs home stadium, there were fans holding signs reading "HEY, PHIL, ZEN SOME, LOSE SOME" and a banner saying "Lakers=Cry Babies". Even if Phil Jackson saw it, he didn't take any notice of it. Take the sarcasm to heart.

"Last year with the Spurs, I had heart bypass surgery, Shaq's big toe was lingering, the small forward group was injured, Fox and Murray were both reimbursed, Devin George sprained his ankle, we were cursed, so I just lost to you, but this year, it is completely different. Yes, Shaq and Kobe still have conflicts, but this is not the Finals, and there will be no FMVP competition. Kobe and Shaq will still aim to win. We With two veteran players, Karl Malone and Gary Payton, and Sun, a potential rookie, Greg, you will lose to me again this time." Phil Jackson is quite confident in playing Popovich. Let Sun Zhuo feel that Zen Master is great, because in the impression of Sun Zhuo in his previous life, Popovich was the most terrifying coach in the league. No team wants to meet his Spurs in the playoffs, but Zen Master is not afraid.

Popovich has great respect and respect for Pat Riley, and he refused to admit defeat in the face of Phil Jackson. Before the game, he said that there is nothing more exciting than meeting the Lakers.

Up and down the arena, everyone was nervous, the players and the coaches were stressed too, Zhuo Sun was the only exception because he knew the Lakers would win and all he had to worry about was whether he would be able to make a difference.

The game started soon, and Sun Zhuo started again. Before the official start, Sun Zhuo and his teammates shook hands with the opponent politely. The Spurs started five, Duncan, Parker, Nesterovic, Bowen, Turkoglu , everyone looked serious, especially when they saw O'Neal. Although Sun Zhuo had gained fame this year, but in the playoffs, few people looked at him seriously. This feeling of not being taken seriously made Sun Zhuo very sad. accurate.

"This game must let you remember me! I don't just score points in the regular season, I don't just rely on my teammates to win! I can also control the game!" Sun Zhuo is determined to perform in this series.

At the beginning of the game, the two sides played their own old routines step by step. The Lakers played O'Neal, and the Spurs played Duncan. Nesterovic, who defended O'Neal, was a center from Slovenia. He was 115 meters tall and weighed [-] kilograms. Not O'Neill's.

Similarly, when Duncan beat the old Karl Malone, he also had an advantage in terms of height and footwork.

In terms of Tony Parker and Gary Payton, Parker still has the advantage. This guy is too good at breaking through, and he can break through for a whole game, which makes the two elders uncomfortable.

Bruce Bowen will cling to Kobe. Although no one can defend Kobe, even in the playoffs, Kobe wants to score 30 points and no one can stop him, but Bowen will force Kobe to use a more difficult way and more the number of shots.

In the eyes of many people, Turkoglu has an advantage in playing against Sun Zhuo. Needless to say, experience. In the starting lineup, everyone has more experience than Sun Zhuo. He is [-] meters tall and played against Sun Zhuo. [-] meters is also dominant, and the physical confrontation is not in vain.

Everyone thought that this would be a close contest, and in the first home game of the Spurs, the Spurs should have played better than the Lakers, but the result was unexpected.

When the game went on for one and a half minutes, neither side scored. The playoffs are all about defense, and the defense of these two teams is the top in the league.

This time, it was the Lakers attacking. Kobe took the ball to the frontcourt and handed the ball to O'Neal in the high position to make a transition. Unexpectedly, when he was about to ask for the ball again, Bowen suddenly walked forward and refused to give Kobe a chance to catch the ball. O'Neal didn't Passing the ball at the first time, Kobe wanted to get rid of Bowen and asked for the ball again. When Kobe got rid of it, O'Neal looked in the direction of other teammates.

I thought that O'Neal was going to pass, and it was also passed to Gary Payton, who was closer. Who knew, O'Neal saw Sun Zhuo suddenly rushing towards the right corner, and directly threw a long pass to the right corner!

"What? It was passed to the right?"

The Spurs players were a little surprised. O'Neal's pass was a bit risky. The distance between O'Neal and Sun Zhuo was a bit far. If you want to play Sun Zhuo, you should pass through Payton for a transition.

Therefore, Turkoglu did not predict the pass at all, and was completely thrown off by Sun Zhuo. Sun Zhuo came to the bottom corner, the ball arrived, and he aimed at the basket for the first time after receiving the ball without any hesitation.

"He actually shot directly?"

The Spurs fans and Turkoglu, who was defending Sun Zhuo, were a little surprised. Sun Zhuo is a bold rookie, and Karl Malone even hesitated to make a shot when he encountered an opportunity.

"Grab a rebound!" Tim Duncan immediately got stuck, preventing the burly Malone from getting a rebound.

Swish!
The ball crisps into the net and lands right at Duncan's feet.

Sun Zhuo scored the first three-pointer of the field.

"Haha." O'Neill was overjoyed when he saw it. He witnessed Sun Zhuo's 10-for-8 and 10-for-9 in the bottom corner with his own eyes, and he has absolute confidence in Sun Zhuo.

Karl Malone also stepped forward and praised: "Good job, just keep this state."

Phil Jackson also nodded. If Sun Zhuo can transfer the shooting percentage during training to the official game, it will really liberate O'Neal and Kobe completely.

Kobe didn't know about the magic of Sun Zhuo's bottom corner shooting percentage. Fisher and others didn't tell Kobe, so he thought to himself: "It must be that after losing to me that day, he trained three-pointers. It's not bad, look. Looks like a little bit of progress.”

Sun Zhuo is more than a simple improvement. The next time the Lakers attack, Kobe Bryant missed a shot. Karl Malone received a rebound. He wanted to play a second offense, but realized that Sun Zhuo was on his right. Zhuo didn't pay enough attention to his defense, so Malone also passed the ball to him.

Sun Zhuo was in almost the same position, and after receiving the ball, he made another three-pointer!
"What? Voted again!"

"He dared to shoot too much!"

Swish!
Hit again!

"My God, it's been a few days since the fifth game between the Lakers and the Rockets, how can his three-pointer feeling last that day!" Spurs fans suddenly panicked.

When it was so difficult for both stars to score 1 point, Sun Zhuo scored 6 points easily, which made Popovich very angry, and Turkoglu also felt very shamed, because Sun Zhuo was Tester is positioned as a lay-win player who will not break 10 points per game in the playoffs.

The Spurs quickly called a timeout, and Popovich also reprimanded Turkoglu, who was defending Sun Zhuo.

After being reprimanded, Turkoglu said to Sun Zhuo as soon as he came on the court: "Boy, you are lucky, but you will not score again in the future."

Sun Zhuo said: "I have heard such words many times, but it has never been fulfilled every time."

It's time for Sun Zhuo to lead a wave of rhythm!

Didn't you just call a timeout?Didn't you just score a good goal to stabilize the situation?Then I will let you collapse again!
On the left, O'Neal asked for the ball in a low position, was double-teamed, and gave the ball to Kobe who was outside the 45-degree three-point line in front of him. Lu also come to defend me!"

Kobe thought he was being double-teamed, but at this moment, a figure wearing the same jersey floated behind Kobe, and raised his hands and shouted that Kobe wanted the ball.

"Sun!" Kobe was startled, it turned out that it was Sun Zhuo running over.

Now that Sun Zhuo asked for the ball, Kobe quickly passed the ball.

Turkoglu followed Sun Zhuo desperately, but Sun Zhuo's shot was too decisive. Turkoglu still failed to block Sun Zhuo's shot, but hit Sun Zhuo's arm when he reached out to block the shot.

Swish!
Three points into the network!

One more free throw!
Sun Zhuo needs to score 10 points in a single quarter!
