Devil shooting guard in basketball

Chapter 605 Turn the tide of the battle!

In this game, James found Wharton before the game, and the main talk was that in the last game, he wanted to play for four quarters.

Wharton refused at first, but eventually agreed.

One of the problems the Lakers are facing now is that they are not fully sure of winning the Philadelphia 76ers.

The previous game was tied at 3:3 because the Lakers could not immediately win this opponent.

The main reason is that when James played in the third quarter or rested in the second quarter, the Lakers couldn't keep up with the Philadelphia 76ers in scoring.

It was not completely unreasonable for Coach Lu to say "pass the ball to James" at every turn.

The game is completely different with LeBron on the court and without him on the court.

Wharton's insomnia has become much more serious during this period, and Li Feng is really scary in the game.

In the past few seasons, the coaches of other teams, just watching Li Feng's games, felt that this player was not easy to mess with.

And Walton has personally spent two full seasons with Li Feng as the assistant coach of the Warriors and the head coach of the Lakers.

It can be said that I know Li Feng quite well. When Li Feng was still a rookie, were the Milwaukee Bucks weak?

At that time, the Bucks were also at the bottom of the league, but in the end they just won the championship!
What's more, Li Feng is no longer what he used to be!
19:17 in the first quarter!Both teams have fought hard for defense!

In the second quarter, LeBron was temporarily put down by Wharton for 2 minutes, and then continued the game. When Li Feng played more than 3 minutes into the second quarter, he took a rest until the end of the first half.

50:41!The fans cheered fiercely over the Staples Center!
The Lakers gradually found their sense on the court, and now they are going to win the Philadelphia 76ers in one go.

The fans of the Lakers also seem to see that LeBron, who has only rested for 2 minutes so far, seems to be going to the end of the next game!

If this is the case, then in the last game of the season today, the Lakers will be really stable!
The two teams had the same halftime break. The players went back to relax in various ways. Some slept, some played games, and some listened to music.

After the break, the head coaches of both teams sat on the bench to watch their players come back.

In the third quarter, the Lakers lineup is Zubac, Randall, James, Fultz and Pope!

The Philadelphia 76ers are Embiid, Saric, Booker, Li Feng and McConnell in order!
It can be said that the game in the third quarter can basically determine which side can win tonight's game.

It will be more obvious whether the Lakers can win steadily.

That is to widen the score gap again, or keep playing with such a score difference, the basic problem is not big.

At this time, the camera is shown on the Lakers bench, Thomas Jr. is sitting on the bench, next to coach Walton.

Thomas is also a little excited today, because he failed to win a championship during his years with the Boston Celtics.

But this season is different!
It is very likely to get a championship ring directly with the team!
This is something that many players dream of!

In terms of player evaluation by the Lakers management this season, Thomas Jr. is still more important here.

Wharton also mentioned this to Thomas. If the Lakers win the championship, Thomas will probably stay with the team next season!
Then follow LeBron to win the Lakers' three consecutive championships!
Pope came to the front court with the ball at this time, and James got his pass. In the third quarter, the little emperor planned to pass more balls, so as to save some energy.

Not long after, Zubac dunked directly after receiving a pass from LeBron!

The offensive and defensive transition speed of the Philadelphia 76ers immediately increased!
After McConnell got Saric's serve, he was directly broken!
After LeBron broke his ball, he got up and scored with a tomahawk dunk! !
The fans at the scene immediately boiled! 54:41!James made a signature push-down move.

The camera goes to the sidelines of Philadelphia 76ers coach Brown.

At this time, Brown looked at the game with a blank gaze, and his emotions were somewhat ups and downs.

He wants to win, and he very much hopes that the team can win this championship trophy!
But the overwhelming aura of the Lakers seemed to make the Philadelphia 76ers... really collapse.

This seems like an inevitable outcome.The Lakers really worked hard this time!

Then the 76ers didn't score on offense, and James didn't look back. After receiving Randall's pass, he went to the frontcourt and hit a three-pointer directly!
When Brown raised his arm to signal for a timeout, he happened to find Li Feng looking at him.

Li Feng shook his head at his coach, meaning not to call a timeout.

The nearest referee looked over. Brown put his hands in his pockets and told the referee that he didn't want this timeout.

57:41!Li Feng looked at the score at the scene, and his pressure was also much greater.

After receiving a pass from teammate Booker, Li Feng slowly came to the frontcourt.

Fultz and Pope planned to defend Li Feng, but the ball went to McConnell immediately.

LeBron went over and slapped the ball hard with a blood cap!
Li Feng picked up the basketball directly, got up and hit the basket with a super long three-pointer! !

James: "Li Feng, I will let you lose tonight!!"

Just now Li Feng's three-pointer angered the little emperor, LeBron directly took the ball to the front court, with Booker and Saric hanging on his body, he dunked against Embiid to score points! !

Li Feng did not spar with James.

He knows that his team is at a disadvantage right now.The most important thing to do now is to quickly catch up with the score.

Li Feng got the basketball again, and the Lakers fans couldn't sit still!
Many stood up, and the sound of "defense" on the scene became louder and louder!

It seemed like most of the people in this arena tonight were trying to get out there and guard the Philadelphia 76ers.

LeBron directly asked Fultz to switch defenses with himself.

He used to match up with Li Feng, facing the little emperor's defense, Li Feng finally passed the ball to McConnell.

Now the Lakers' defense is almost pushing you down and taking the ball for half court!
McConnell felt that he had no chance to score this time, so he passed the ball directly.

Li Feng jumped up immediately after receiving the pass from his teammate first, and hit a hollow three-pointer when his posture in the air was seriously deformed!
59:47!The Philadelphia 76ers are chasing points!

The Lakers immediately became nervous at this time. The other players on the Philadelphia side couldn't start the situation. Li Feng is now leading the team himself!

This time LeBron is really angry!In the finals, Li Feng wants to compete with him? !

Almost blocked by James to an 8-second violation, Simmons had already started warming up on the sidelines.

Kuzma still doesn't know if he can come back, and Booker is not very useful.

Then Randall's shot did not!Saric got the rebound and Brown immediately called for a timeout.

Let Simmons replace Booker.Lopez wanted to go up to the game, but Walton directly refused.

At this time Kuzma appeared from the corridor and walked back with two staff members.

The players here in Philadelphia immediately came to their spirits!

Brown: "Kuzma, don't talk, I'll listen to you whether he can play now."

Team doctor: "We just had a third check, Kuzma is ready to play now"

Brown: "Okay, I know. Kuzma! Take a good rest!"

Kuzma: "Oh!"

Li Feng: "Now James is staring at me, and our chance has come! No matter how the opponent fights, I will find a solution!"

The teammates on the field were very excited after hearing what Li Feng said!Li Feng is about to pass halftime.

Then LeBron really ran over!Simmons got the basketball, passed Fultz directly, then got up and hit a three-pointer! !
Wharton's anxious expression appeared on the big screen at this time, competing with the No. [-] pick Fultz. Obviously, Simmons, the No. [-] pick the year before last, was even better in terms of experience and state!
James got the basketball directly, and finally let Saric get 2 of 1 free throws after receiving the foul!
This time LeBron did not hit the basket directly, and the Philadelphia 76ers also knew that the little emperor's physical fitness had begun to decline.

But at this time, the Lakers can't start the situation for a while, and James needs to break through!
The end of the third quarter, 75:70!The Lakers actually became the trailing side at the end of the third quarter.

LeBron shook his head and walked back. He didn't expect today's game to be played like this.

But fortunately, he still had confidence at this time, and LeBron immediately took a white towel and draped it over his shoulders and sat on the bench to rest.

Walton mainly talked briefly with Thomas Jr. and Lopez about how to play the next game, and then immediately came to James to communicate with him briefly.

Brown: "It's the last quarter of the game. In this quarter of the game, how should we play and what will be the final result.

The choice is up to you.And no matter how it ends up, I don't blame you. "

After telling me that Brown pointed to Kuzma to let him play the next game, McConnell returned to the bench and sat down.

After one quarter of the game, McConnell was already sweating profusely at this time!
In the fourth quarter, the Lakers lineup is Lopez, Randall, James, Pope and Thomas!

The Philadelphia 76ers are Embiid, Saric, Kuzma, Li Feng and Simmons.

At this time, among the players on both sides, James and Saric will appear to be somewhat insufficient in physical fitness.

But this time they are the two best players in the game.

The Lakers also rely on James to win. If he is off the court, the opponent will definitely score crazy points during this period!
In the previous games, the Philadelphia 76ers took advantage of this and won 3 games with them until now!
The fans at the scene shouted crazily at the beginning of the fourth quarter!

The current Lakers are in danger!Thomas Jr. quietly went out to the frontcourt, and soon passed Li Feng directly, and missed a three-pointer, but Brook got a rebound!
LeBron receives his pass, then jumps up on Kuzma and hits a 2-pointer!
The Lakers fans at the scene immediately cheered! 75:72!

The point difference between the two teams was not big at this time. Relying on his good breakthrough ability, Simmons rushed directly to the frontcourt. After Li Feng received his pass, he was immediately restrained by Thomas Jr.!

However, Simmons reacted faster and came directly over. Li Feng relied on Simmons as a cover, and immediately jumped up and hit a three-pointer!
LeBron let Kuzma pass, and the two immediately fought.

But in terms of confrontation, Kuzma obviously suffered a disadvantage. Soon James directly fouled his pants, and then made all 3 free throws!
78:75!The players on the scene fought hard, and the fans in the auditorium became extremely crazy at this time!
They are basically thinking about when the Lakers will win the championship!

On the sidelines, Iverson and Kobe seemed quite calm.

From time to time, he still talks and laughs, which seems out of place with the crazy fans behind him.

Thomas: "Defensively, we must keep up!"

James: "This is for sure! Randall!! Guard Embiid and Saric for me! Don't let them get even 1 point!"

Randall: "I see!!"

After halftime, Li Feng rushed towards Thomas Jr., but this time Thomas Jr. broke Li Feng's ball!

Then Xiang Yao rushed over to score a layup, but Li Feng slapped the basketball hard on the backboard!
Kuzma received a pass from Li Feng, and after Simmons got Kuzma's ball, he changed direction and accelerated and passed LeBron directly!
At this time, Simmons couldn't stop, he simply rushed in, and then fell out of the field with Lopez!
The referee called Simmons an offensive foul!Score invalid!

Simmons is on fire right now!The three referees on the scene also ran towards Simmons at this time.

Seeing this, Li Feng hugged Simmons, and the latter calmed down a little under Li Feng's persuasion.

Then LeBron passed halftime and scored with a one-handed dunk!
Li Feng dribbled the ball across half court, and then let James, who came over to defend, foul. Li Feng came to the free throw line and made all 3 free throws!
LeBron feels that his physical fitness has declined sharply at this time, but now the whole team needs him.

Shortly after the ball came to the front court, the basketball flew to Thomas Jr..

With the Philadelphia 76ers double-teaming, Thomas missed a three-pointer, and Kuzma ran to the frontcourt immediately after getting the rebound.

Simmons jumped up and shot after receiving his pass, and Randle was fouled at the same time.

After Simmons scored the ball, he successfully scored 3+1!

85:77!Seeing that his team was 8 points behind, Walton immediately requested a timeout!
The lineup of the Philadelphia 76ers at this time reflects the characteristics of fast and stable movement and coordination, and the players on the field score quickly!

Saric's offensive efficiency is also very high and stable today!
Walton: "James, can you hold on now?"

At this time, the head coach of the Lakers regretted a little. He shouldn't listen to James before the game and let him play for so long.

James: "No problem at all"

Walton: "It's the last quarter of the game, and we can't afford to fight our opponents. If the point difference is too wide, we won't be able to catch up.

Therefore, in the following games, I ask you to focus on breakthroughs!
Thomas attracts more attention from opponents. In terms of scoring, you two, Brook and James, should score more points.

If the opponent defends too hard, give the ball to Pope."

Unlike the tense tasks assigned by the Lakers, the Philadelphia 76ers rested throughout the timeout.

As Brown said at the end of the third quarter, he didn't say anything about new ways of playing, but just sat there, watching the game with no expression in a daze.

He is waiting for the start of the game, and he is also waiting for the end of the game.
