lakers championship

Chapter 346
Strictly speaking, the Celtics players are not too young. The oldest Baynes is also 29 years old, but the old players of the Lakers Kobe Bryant and Carter are all around 35 years old. This impression is only obtained by an average calculation.

Basketball, a high-frequency, high-confrontation competitive sport, is weaker when you are older, and you have to be convinced if you are as strong as Jordan, Chamberlain, and LeBron. It is really possible that you will be run to death by young people.

But what O'Neal said also made sense. Jiang is old and hot. In 14, a group of old men from the Spurs also worked in the Big Three Heat. This is the charm of competitive sports.

On the court, Rondo took the ball to the front court, and Irving continued to harass him.

It's a pity that the effect is very little. Rondo plays point guard, but the palm area is larger than that of LeBron at the small forward position. Except for Leonard, few players have bigger palms than him. In addition to his height of 185 cm, there are With a terrifying wingspan of 213 centimeters, under the condition of conscious defense, trying to break his ball is not impossible, at least Irving is impossible.

Rondo steadily took the ball to the top of the arc, followed the same example, Tianyang took the first block, Randall took the second block, and then he singled out Baynes, using the change of speed and rhythm, rushed to the basket with ease Layup.

The Lakers have such a simple move, but the Celtics have nothing to do.Of course Stevens knew the methods of delaying in advance, double-teaming, partial defense and so on.But the problem is that it is difficult for Owen to interfere with Rondo, and the effect of delaying in advance is definitely not good. Rondo is also a good passer, and double-teaming is also difficult to pose a threat. In addition, Tianyang and Randall can play with the ball, and local defense is equivalent to to send points.

Amidst the fans' loud shouts of 'BETA LA', Baines retreated to the bottom line with a solemn face. He couldn't prevent Rondo from breaking through continuously, but he turned his head and was frantically interfered with by Randall to serve. His hand holding the ball was slightly trembling.

Who should I pass it on to?
Irving has Rondo entangled, Jaylen Brown has Tianyang interfering, Horford has Kuzma making trouble, and the only one who is more convenient to catch the ball is Hayward.

After all, Ingram was just running along, with both hands in order.

Determined to pay attention, Baines aimed at the right sideline and threw the ball vigorously with both hands.

As soon as he threw it out, he regretted it, and Stevens stared suddenly.

Seeing that Ingram seemed to have expected it, he turned around suddenly, gave up Hayward and went straight to the basketball.

It turned out that before running with all my heart, I was just pretending.

Ingram jumped high, intercepted the pass at the right time, and slammed the ball while he was still in the air, sending the ball to Kuzma, who cut to the basket with both hands.

O'Neill jokingly said: "This assist should be counted on Baynes."

Stevens was full of embarrassment. He has always been known for his tactics. As a result, his team let the Lakers defense miss the serve, and the Celtics immediately attacked again. He had to speak out to remind him.

The shouts of 'BETA LA' that resounded through the audience had stopped, and the entire North Shore Garden Arena was surprisingly quiet. Baines stood on the bottom line again, swallowing saliva involuntarily, and his Adam's apple had some difficulty in wriggling.

Witnessing the scene of four teammates being crazily disturbed again, his mind was completely muddled.

"Left, left, left!" Stevens yelled, and the Celtics bench gesticulated wildly.

With the help of Jaylen and Horford's double screen, Irving moved from the top of the arc to the short corner on the left. The Lakers players have not yet caught up, and there is no one there. It is a good time to pass the ball. Baynes reacted, like Like throwing away a hot potato, he hurriedly passed the ball.

Irving took the ball, Rondo went up to meet it, Tianyang and Kuzma returned to their respective positions, and continued to press the audience.

In order to successfully complete the attack, Owen showed his real skills. He first dribbled the ball under his crotch and accelerated to the left, then stopped suddenly and pulled the ball and turned around. When Rondo reacted, he pulled the ball again and turned and accelerated back to the left. Difficult dribble, stumbling the ball to the top of the arc.

Jaylen didn't try to take Tianyang to the bottom corner this time, but ran towards Horford, showing signs of using cover to cut to the basket.In this way, Tianyang could only follow up, and then misplaced to defend Horford.

The Celtics achieved their goal, Irving passed the ball decisively, Horford received the ball from the right elbow, and hit Tianyang again.

Having already suffered a loss, Tianyang went around and cut the ball without hesitation.

Horford's reaction was fast enough, and he turned back with the momentum, his movements were very smooth,

But as soon as he turned around, he saw Kuzma reaching out to touch him with his hands, and he and Tianyang surrounded him up and down.

Jaylen was completely open, but Horford was blocked in the upper two lanes and could only push the ball to the ground with both hands.

The speed of such a pass was too slow, Randall from the left elbow slashed out from a diagonal stab, and collided with Jaylen who rushed up to catch the ball under the basket, and the basketball rolled out of bounds.

The referee blew his whistle and signaled to watch the replay.

The three on-duty referees walked to the technical stage, put on headphones, and watched repeatedly from multiple angles.

On the big screen in the center of the court, the scene of Randall and Jaylen colliding was also played continuously.

In the live broadcast room, O'Neal: "The young players of the Lakers are better than each other. I like it."

Kenny: "I like it too, but it's so hard, it must be difficult to maintain physical fitness."

Barkley: "Honestly, I'd rather see the old guys get tough."

Soon, the referee made a verdict, and the ball was scrimmage at the free throw line, because it was really difficult to judge which side touched the ball out of bounds.

The Kai fans at the scene were naturally dissatisfied, and all kinds of boos rang out. Jaylen had no advantage against Randall.

As a result, as the fans thought, Randall touched the ball first and gave it to Rondo, and the Lakers launched a fast break.

The fast break couldn't press the whole court, and Kay could only man-to-man, but Rondo passed to Tianyang, Tianyang passed to Randall, the Lakers passed the ball continuously and quickly, and finally Ingram scored an easy layup.

14 to 6, the Celtics trailed by 8 points and failed to score twice in a row. If there were not only 5 timeouts left, I am afraid that Stevens would call another one on the spot.

The two teams maintained a high-intensity offensive and defensive rhythm and played until the last 3 minutes of the first quarter. The scene entered an official timeout, and the Lakers led 24-15.

From the point of view of the score, the gap is actually not that big, but the Celtics made 5 more turnovers and 3 fouls, especially 3 fouls, which will gradually show their effect in the subsequent games.

On the Lakers bench, Walton shook hands with the exhausted and panting players one by one.

"It's been hard work, it's been hard work, hurry up and take a rest."

"Next, the five of you, Rose, Kobe, Carter, McGee, and Lopez, don't need to press the whole court on the defensive end, just watch the defense, and you can also watch the offensive end."

After Wharton's words fell, he turned and sat back on the bench. Kobe and Carter looked at each other and complained as they entered the field.

"Little Wharton looks down on us? Do you think we are too old to run fast enough?"

"It's a little bit, it's all about fighting and defending, I have to come up with a unique move today."

"Oh? Then I won't be polite. Apart from dunking, what's your other trick?"

"3 in N, I shot 4 of 3 balls, 5 of 3 balls, and 6 of 3 balls. Tianyang told me that the Chinese fans gave me a nickname called 'Card Three Swords' .”

Kobe smiled when he heard the words. He knew Carter was joking, but if he really made 3 of 3 three-pointers, the Celtics would probably collapse, because he was confident that if he backed Jaylen Brown or other Celtics guards, he would at least score. 3.
