The strongest basket king

Chapter 88 Give a chance

The Lakers did not get the match point, and the Spurs said that there is no problem at all. It is not a fake to rank first in the regular season. They beat the Jazz again and reached the third 3:0.

In the game between the Grizzlies and the Clippers, the Clippers narrowly won by 1 point at home. They missed free throws at the last moment and almost made the Grizzlies comeback. Their group is also the most tangled in the West.

In the East, the 76ers broke out and beat the Bulls in the last quarter. The Bulls' defense was still the first grade, but it was embarrassing that they didn't persist until the last moment.

Without Rose, the Bulls really have no one to stand up at critical moments.

The Celtics led the Hawks 2:1 in the overtime series at the same time. At the critical moment, the Hawks did not play as well as the veteran Celtics.

The last four games of the playoffs will continue. Some teams are still fighting hard, and some teams should go home.

The Thunder didn't give the Mavericks any chance. Harden scored 15 points in the last quarter to help the team reverse. The defending champion Mavericks were the first to be eliminated. Nuo Tianwang scored 34 points and couldn't get back a victory, which made people sigh.

Although the Eastern Magic dragged the game into overtime with Redick's three-pointer, George Hill made a free throw in overtime and lost the match point.

The Lakers, who did not sweep their opponents, really calmed down, and they couldn't stop the outsiders' remarks, so they could only defeat their opponents as soon as possible.

In fact, some players also have ideas in their hearts. It seems that it is not impossible to wait for Artest in the first round.

However, the team cannot be said to be stable now, and it will be difficult to say if it loses another game.

Mike Brown, as the head coach, knows very well that if he wants to release water in the playoffs, it may capsize.

The fourth game between the Lakers and the Nuggets started on time at the Pepsi Center Stadium.

The Nuggets started the same as they played, and they felt they had found the key to defeating the Lakers.

Of course, the Lakers' starting lineup will not be adjusted, and to be honest, they have no room for adjustment.

At the beginning of the game, Kobe felt a little anxious. He missed two consecutive strong shots. Fortunately, the Lakers grabbed an offensive rebound inside and Gasol scored for the team.

If the Lakers want to win, Kobe must of course play tough, otherwise they will not be a threat from the outside, but he doesn't need to be too persistent in singles. It's not that the Lakers don't have other attack points, and he doesn't need to use iron to regain his touch.

The Nuggets' victory in the last game actually had some accidental factors. If Kobe played the giant star from the beginning, it is likely that the Nuggets will find a chance instead.

There was a trend in this quarter. Fortunately, Bynum made several shots with good efficiency, which did not allow the Nuggets to take the opportunity to open the score. However, during the rotation period, Andre Miller almost played according to Blake.

And McGee still wants to show off today, Xiang Chu won't give it a chance.

"McGee turned around with a small hook to pick the basket...a big hat, Xiang Chu saw through the opponent's offense, Xiang Chu is also tall and long, there is no need to play too many tricks in front of him."

"Oh my God, it's almost the same position, the same way, Xiang Chu dunked again, McGee looked very annoyed, he wanted to get it back."

"McGee's offensive methods are slightly richer, but Xiang Chu plays very solidly and is very smart. He has always been a relatively efficient player in the Lakers lineup."

"Xiang Chu scored another goal. This time it was mid-range. McGee put it too far. In fact, Xiang Chu not only can dunk, but he will not shoot easily if he is not sure. The Lakers overtook the score."

When Xiang Chu was off the field, he pulled the score back and led by 1 point.

But when the main lineup came on the field, they were overtaken by the opponent. Ebanks was still too tender, and Gallinari beat him several times in a row.

Mike Brown stood on the sidelines with a tangled face, and he often wondered what would happen to Artest.

Maybe it will be better, Artest has rich experience in the playoffs.

But it may be the same. Artest has actually dropped a lot this season. The key is that he can't pin his hopes on a guy who is not even the fifth point of the team, which will make him weak.

"Boys, aggressive, you can do well." Mike Brown applauded the players on the sidelines.

He is also thinking that it's time to give Xiang Chu more playing time. Bynum sometimes makes his heart a little uncomfortable. Although Xiang Chu's strength is not as good as that, he is much more stable and has a very high shooting rate at the basket.

If the physical fitness is stronger, it is Howard.

The team trailed by 5 points at halftime, which is not a terrific gap in the league.

"We must win this game." Kobe, who scored the team's highest score at halftime, was decisive.

But his shooting percentage is also the team's lowest. Although there is a problem with the opponent's defensive focus, some things can actually be done better.

Playing in the third quarter, the Lakers stepped up their defense.

Mike Brown's analysis of the court situation during the halftime break is quite detailed, but his reaction is not so fast in the game, and sometimes he is more like an analyst.

Slow down, expand the defense to force the opponent to break through, and then help defend inside.

The Lakers can do such a thing, and then try to be more reasonable on offense. They don't have as many offensive points as the Nuggets, but they still have a lot, especially the inside is very active.

The team is chasing points, and the Nuggets are also tenaciously resisting. The Nuggets are still the first to replace. Every game, the Nuggets can play more players than the Lakers. Now Mozgov is also a fake starter at the fifth position.

Among their teams, only McGee can really score in the paint. Faried and Harrington are not regular insiders, and McGee's threat is limited.

They can't play a small lineup at all, they have to adjust according to the scene, and George Karl's scene is indeed a little better than Mike Brown.

The turning point for the Lakers came after Xiang Chu came on the court. He went up and caused McGee to foul twice. One of them was not at the basket. He just hit a mid-range shot in the first half. A technical center.

To be honest, McGee blocks a lot of shots but his defense is not very good. He just can jump, jump up at every turn, and it is easy to be artificially fouled.

On the Nuggets side, Corey Brewer hit a three-pointer from the outside again, which didn't let the Lakers open the score.

In the final quarter, Xiang Chu partnered with Gasol, and Gasol gave him a beautiful inside pass. Xiang Chu dunked solidly, and the Lakers continued to lead.

He is the happiest when he is partnered with Gasol. If he plays with Bynum, the positioning of the two of them is actually not easy to solve, so he rarely overlaps with Bynum in each game.

"Pass me another one, and I'm sure I can score." Xiang Chu became a little excited.

His scoring has exceeded the previous few games, and he feels that he still has a chance to score this time.

Mike - Brown also gave a chance, he didn't let Bynum go that morning.

At 4 minutes and 31 seconds, Xiang Chu grabbed an offensive rebound and succeeded in attacking again. He has already scored 16 points and the team led by 5 points.
