Bishop: since 1998

Chapter 211 What's the use of you!
"McGrady's injury is unknown, and his condition has also been affected.

Therefore, in the fourth quarter of the game, we have to be prepared without McGrady.

We can't lose this game. "

Next, Li Mu will arrange the tactics for the fourth quarter.

"Armstrong, Mike Miller, Jackson, O'Neal and Magloire.

Wait for the five of you to play.

I need you to hold on for 3 minutes.

Play with a low offensive tempo.

Hill and Duncan, you rest for 3 minutes, and then play, and the final battle with the Lakers. "

Lakers side.

The OK combination is also rested.

Billups, Ginobili, Bowen, Big Ben, Grant played.

The game is on.

Billups dribbles to the frontcourt and finds that the opponent is Armstrong.

Immediately, speed up the rush.

Billups is very good at bullying opponents with his body. After attracting O'Neal's supplementary defense, he slapped the ground.

Like a scalpel, he easily assisted Grant, dunked under the basket, and scored two points.

83 to 81! !
"Armstrong's defense is terrible, he can't stop Billups.

McGrady still doesn't know if he can play, and the Magic are in danger. said Barkley.

The Magic attack.

Continuously stepping down the dribble, Armstrong and O'Neal played a pick-and-roll tactic.

Throwing away Billups, Armstrong went to the basket, played big with a small one, and scored a two-point layup on Grant's head.

Cobra Grant is still too old.

With Armstrong's familiarity with him, he can easily break through the basket he guards.

83 to 83! !
Offensive and defensive conversion.

Lakers offense.

Ginobili catches the ball, lifts the ball and shakes it, and Mike Miller loses his defensive focus.

Ginobili broke through, entered the three-point line, pulled the ball up, and made a European layup.

Like a swimming snake, he passed the entire defense line of the Magic in a strange way, and took a pick at the basket.

Swish-!
85 to 83! !
"Ginobili's breakthrough was very sharp.

Of course, his close-range shots are also very sensible. said Kenny Smith.

The Magic attack.

Armstrong points the ball to Maggette to attack.

Breakthrough, layup, Bowen is as close as candy, and wants to pass the ball, but Daben reaches out and breaks the basketball.

Li Mu frowned.

Maggette is trying to die, and he dared to single out Bowen.

People's rice bowl is defense.

The physical confrontation was a bit poor, but Bowen actually knew how to use Daben's help defense, completely 2-on-1, and solved the Magic's offense.

The Lakers fought back.

Fortunately, with Big Ben and Bowen there, the offensive point was lacking and it failed.

positional warfare.

Billups continued to bully Armstrong, crushing him with his back, step by step, until he reached the sweet spot of shooting.

Before Jermaine O'Neal's block was reached, he had completely turned around and made a fallback jump shot...

Swish-!
87 to 83! !
The Magic attack.

Armstrong's defense is poor, but fortunately, he is a sharp edge on offense.

Breakthrough, speed, change of direction, hitting the basket.

beep~
The referee blew his whistle and called Grant for a thug foul.

Armstrong got two free throws.

Swish-swish-!
Didn't fail, hit two free throws.

87 to 85! !
Next, the situation on the field changed suddenly.

Billups suddenly pulled out a three-pointer...

With a bang, the three-point strike missed.

Before Li Mu let out a sigh of relief, his heart immediately lifted.

Big Ben jumped up, took off the rebound, and sent the ball outside.

Ginobili catches the ball, draws the bow and sets the arrow, and opens the hand for a three-pointer jump shot...

Swish-!
90 to 85! !
Subsequently, Mike Miller's CIC missed.

The Lakers fought back quickly, and it was Bowen who rushed to the frontcourt.

Bowen, who was not optimistic about the offense, easily received a pass from Billups, dunked back and scored two points.

92:85.

The point difference widened to 7 points, Li Mu immediately couldn't sit still and called a timeout.

"Just now the team doctor sent news that McGrady was sprained and couldn't play in the fourth quarter.

Now the Magic are behind.

I only have one request now, that is, not to let McGrady get hurt in vain.

Next, the game is up to you. "

Li Mu didn't say much, and replaced Duncan, Hill, and Jackson.

At this time, the Magic's lineup became Jackson, Maggette, Hill, Duncan and O'Neal.

On the Lakers side, Jackson also replaced the main force.

Billups, Kobe, Lewis, Ben and O'Neal.

On the field.

Jackson has the ball.

He can be 1, 2, 3, or 4. He is very versatile. He controls the ball to the frontcourt and hands the basketball to Hill to play.

Or organization forward tactics.

Facing Lewis, Hill made a feint and immediately accelerated to break through inside.

Lewis's nonsensical weakness was easily torn through the defense.

Big Ben came to help defend, Hill pulled the ball and made a two-point jump shot...

Swish-!
92 to 97! !
"Jordan's successor didn't come for nothing.

Hill's offense was unstoppable. "

Lakers offense.

Facing Maggette, Kobe didn't choose to shoot a three-pointer after being emptied.

However, he broke through with the ball, reached the three-point line, stopped suddenly and lifted the ball, and when he saw Maggette jumping up, he immediately jumped up and went to meet him.

Snapped--!
At the same time as the left hand will hit, throw the basketball towards the hoop.

Bang-dang-!
At the same time as the basketball hammer popped out, the referee's whistle sounded.

beep~~
Two free throw opportunities.

"Kobe has so much experience and knows how to score.

Maggette is just a second-year rookie, and he can't stop the league from being one of the best shooting guards. " Barkley shook his head and said.

Li Mu also frowned.

Swish-!
Swish-!
Kobe stood at the free throw line and hit it steadily.

94 to 87! !
Still a gap of 7 points.

The Magic attack.

Hill lifted the ball and continued to feint. After mobilizing Lewis' defensive center of gravity, he changed direction and rushed beyond the three-point line.

Big Ben came out to help defend, and Hill then sent the basketball into the sky.

Bang-dang-!
Duncan's entire body is hung on the basket.

It was Hill again, he used his almightiness to lead the team and cling to the score.

94 to 89! !
Lakers offense.

Billups hoists the basketball to O'Neal.

Bang-!
O'Neal blocked the first shot, and when Duncan assisted in the defense, Hill also rushed over, forming a pincer attack.

O'Neal came with a stroke of genius and passed the basketball to the left basket without thinking.

The big book was now completely empty.

When you pull the ball up, you have to dunk with both hands.

"Duncan threw himself back, jumped up, smack—!
Fanned to the basketball.

Big Ben's dunks did not stop, underestimating Big Ben's strength.

Bang-dang-!
What a pity.

Big Ben smashed the basketball on the rim and it bounced off.

Fortunately, the referee blew his whistle. "

Duncan received a foul and Big Ben went to the free throw line for a free throw.

Li Mu felt at ease in his heart.

Bang-dang-!
Bang-dang-!
Sure enough, Big Ben is still that big Ben.

His free throws are still worse than O'Neal.

Both free throws were missed, and the Lakers lost the ball.

Jackson frowned.

Soon, he couldn't sit still.

On the field.

Daben not only scored a goal with a dunk, but also missed two free throws. On the defensive end, he was easily hit by Duncan.

The offense is not good, but he can bear it. The defense is so poor, what use is it for you?
At this time, 94 to 91, the point difference is only 3 points.

If the Magic fouls on the big itself again, it will be troublesome then.

Jackson replaced Big Ben with veteran Grant.

Li Mu knew that the Magic had an opportunity.
