Chapter 566 566. Los Angeles Gemini
At the end of halftime, the Lakers players returned to the locker room and found that Lao Zhan was sitting on a chair drinking water and holding a thermos.
Lin Feng and Kuzma looked at each other, wondering what kind of trick this guy was playing.

"Boss, why didn't you go to the hospital? Or a roadside clinic or something." Kuzma asked.

Lao Zhan was still drinking hot water, and then pointed to his right leg, "It's fine, but a detailed inspection will be done later, so I'll leave it to you tonight."

"By the way, how many points are those guys ahead of us now?" Lao Zhan asked.

Lin Feng was slightly embarrassed, and said in a low voice, "We are ten points ahead, sorry."

The starting leaders lowered their heads in "ashamedness", and then the atmosphere became very subtle, followed by a burst of wild laughter.

Howard took the lead in attacking, "Brothers, why do you always start behind? It's as if our bench lineup is participating in a game where ten points are subtracted from the start."

Kuzma patted him on the shoulder, "Don't be such a guy, we don't want to, but this is the only way to set off your abilities. The strongest bench lineup in the league? Is this name loud enough?"

Of course, these guys are all kidding, and there's nothing stopping their friendship now.

Walton walked into the locker room later, satisfied with the team's first-half game, although it was still habitually slow.

"You did a good job. Gary restricted James Harden. This is what I would like to see. The Houston team is very easy to solve. If you restrict Harden, we will win half of the game."

Wharton named Lin Feng's defense. He scored 15 points in the half with sudden shots.

According to the team doctor, LeBron's injury doesn't look too serious, he just strained his thigh, but it can only be judged based on the final result of the MRI.He will definitely not be able to play in the second half of the game tonight, so Lin Feng needs to carry the team.

Walton told him that Lin Feng needs to take on more responsibilities tonight and increase his playing time.After Lao Zhan left the field, the responsibility of organizing the offense fell on the shoulders of Lin Feng and Rondo, which is very important.

Returning in the third quarter, D'Antoni put on a look to compete with the Lakers.

The Rockets regained control of the situation. Tucker, Paul, and Harden scored three-pointers one after another. The Lakers only relied on Lin Feng's layup to score two points. Seeing that there was only a two-point lead left in the opening three minutes, Walton immediately called a timeout .

Lin Feng was personally disturbed by Paul. The guy is old this year, but he still belongs to the ranks of first-class defenders.

"Relax, you guys need to get used to playing without LeBron, if we're going to hit the championship, we have to get over that!"

Wharton is right, in Lin Feng's view, they are used to that old guy named LeBron trying to turn the tide.

If he is worthy of the title of "King of Los Angeles", he needs to stand up and save the team now.And of course Yingge, who was thinking the same thing.

You must know that Yingge is not as simple as a third grader now, but an all-star player.

Back from the timeout, the overall look of the Lakers has changed.Lin Feng organized the offense with the ball from the outside, Yingge took the initiative to ask for the ball in the low post and singled out Tucker.

PJ Tucker is the Rockets' best defensive player, and even Durant, who is incomprehensible, has praised him.

Lin Feng believed the sleepy guy, so he passed the ball.After catching the ball, Yingge made a post-up single action, and this almost lost skill made him use it again.

But Tucker's physical fitness is there after all, and Yingge made a few inwards to no effect, so he turned around and smeared into the basket beautifully after a left side feint!
The pair of sneakers with different colors on Tucker's feet is not a vegetarian. He immediately turned around and chased after him, and gave Yingge 2+1 with all his strength!

The referee's whistle sounded, and Tucker looked helpless.Yingge played this ball very smartly. Instead of laying up directly, he chose to take a step back and wait for Tucker to come up and lean on his path.

The so-called walking the way of others makes others have nowhere to go. Tucker did not stop the car because he rushed too hard just now and caused a foul.

Lin Feng stepped forward to give Yingge a high-five, wanting to get lucky as an All-Star.Soon, after two rounds, it was his turn.

Rondo breaks through with the ball at the top of the arc, and Lin Feng lobs in the paint and cuts to the basket. Free throw line!

On the 20th point, Lin Feng made an extra penalty, and he and Yingge teamed up to contain the Rockets' counterattack.At the end of the third quarter, the point difference returned to the previous ten points.

With Pope hitting the outside line again, the point difference has reached the biggest thirteen points in the game.D'Antoni looked sad, as he had in the past three games.

Harden's face is expressionless, he has always been like this, except when he makes a foul, he will show pain and grievance.Paul, who has returned, seems very anxious. He is eager for victory, the Western Conference Finals and the championship. These are things he longs for but cannot achieve.

At the end of the three quarters, 92-77, the Lakers led by 15 points and entered the break.

Lin Feng and Yingge clapped hands and hugged on the sidelines. The two of them stood up when Lao Zhan was not there.Of course, any teammate is indispensable, Rondo’s connection, Popheart’s three-point threat, Howard McGee’s basket protection, Finsen’s beard blowing and glaring at each other, etc.
D'Antoni looked at the Lakers' bench with envy in his eyes.Los Angeles has never been short of talent, and Space City is a bit tragic.

At the beginning of the fourth quarter, Walton let Lin Feng rest for 2 minutes, and then prepared to go up and play the remaining 10 minutes.

Kuzma harassed the Rockets' position like a scout. This guy didn't hesitate to break through, even if he didn't have a chance, he could force it out.With this spirit, Ku Shao scored an extremely difficult fadeaway jumper, and even Paul next to him was stunned.

Harden's three fouls in the first half laid a hidden danger for him in the following games. After Lin Feng was knocked down, the referee decisively judged Harden for an offensive foul!
The six offenders left the field, which is undoubtedly worse for the Rockets in trouble.D'Antoni was very dissatisfied with the penalty. He thought that Lin Feng was acting, because Harden had already collected the ball just now.

After getting up, Lin Feng pointed to his chest and smiled sweetly at D'Antoni.

I saw a beautiful gesture from the referee on duty, and the Rockets coach got a technical foul!
Fans at Staples Center erupted and applauded to express their love for the referee.Then applause broke out again on the court, and Chris Paul also got a technical foul!
This made Lin Feng overjoyed, because Paul was still calm before, just muttering to himself.Maybe he wanted to fight for the coach, so he started yelling at the referee himself.

With four points in one round, the Lakers' lead is approaching [-]. It seems that this season is about to complete the feat of killing the Rockets four times!
Darrell Morey on the sidelines was disgraced.
