Bulldozer of the NBA’s Restricted Area
Chapter 700 Before the Great Disaster
The Blazers were relatively optimistic after seeing the good results in the first half.
The Lakers... were still ahead by 2 points anyway, so Harris didn't worry too much. Even though Kobe and Barkley had sufficient firepower, they didn't win the two. Instead, they let Nick and Fox rest and went to Hawks. Li and Fisher continued to assist Ko and Ba in their output.
The first half of the third quarter was still the same, with the Lakers' lead slightly improving.
At the 6-minute mark, the point difference fluctuated around 4 points, and after Trail Blazers head coach Dunleavy called a timeout... both sides immediately began to attack the lineup, preparing to attack the final quarter.
…
Harris replaced Li Shengli.
Because at this small lead, the Lakers' offense is not on Li Shengli, and Li Shengli created a shooting environment for everyone in two and a half quarters, which has heated up the main player's touch a lot. It is better to let Ben defend and retain Li Shengli's Physical fitness until the last quarter.
At the same time, the Trail Blazers also made substitutions.
Sabonis played a lot of 30 minutes, after all, the regular season average was only 27 minutes per game.
Keep going, you can play if you can, but in the final quarter the Blazers have no center, so Dunleavy directly replaced the team's substitute inside man, 96-level Jermaine O'Neal, and Jermaine O'Neal had nothing to say at this time. ...averaging 9 minutes per game, 2.6 points + 2.8 rebounds on the bench, this will be pulled out to play in the free time when Li Shengli is not available.
As for the backcourt personnel...
After the timeout, seeing that Li Shengli was not around, Dunleavy found an opportunity and sent substitute shooting guard Greg Anthony on to play a double shot with Leder in the backcourt. Greg Anthony is also a good player in the Blazers' rotation.
…
As a result, the Lakers continued to play in the second half of the third quarter with a 4-point lead.
The Lakers' idea was to maintain stability and maintain their advantage. After all, they were already a little ahead, and as soon as the Trail Blazers hit the court with a double shot from the backcourt... the situation immediately changed drastically.
You know, the perimeter defense consists of Kobe and Fisher.
Because there is no Crotty, it is definitely not the strongest defensive backcourt combination in the team, and the Trail Blazers' double shots immediately became full of firepower.
Leder, at his peak, was a scorer averaging 20 points per game, with both sudden and long-range abilities.
Although Greg Anthony is a substitute, looking at this season's statistics, we can see that... he shot 41% from two-pointers and 40% from three-pointers. His range has been extended, but his hits have not dropped much.
Ideally, as long as the three-point shooting reaches 33.3%, it is not a loss, which is equivalent to 50% of the two-point shooting. As long as the number of shots is enough, it will be more profitable than shooting two-pointers, let alone 40% of the three-pointers under the same ideal situation. The following can be converted into 60% two-point hits.
Either don’t invest, or if you want to invest, invest more!
Leder is capable of three-pointers, averaging 6 three-pointers per game in a season at most; Greg is the same, averaging nearly 4 three-pointers per game at most. Once the idea was confirmed, the two started shooting like crazy. Three-point pattern.
Scored the first three-pointer.
The Lakers didn't react at all, because normal people wouldn't think anything of it, and the same goes for Harris.
But after scoring the second, third, and fourth... Harris saw that the Trail Blazers made 4 of 6 three-pointers on double shots. The Lakers were originally leading by 4 points, but after several rounds of battles, they directly turned to the Trail Blazers. 3 points.
…
With a good lead, why did you still score 3 points?
Harris couldn't sit still, roared, and immediately took Fisher off and replaced him with Crotty.
But the problem is that Crotty can only defend one, but the Trail Blazers have two three-pointers on the outside. Whoever takes the same shot under each other's cover, so the Lakers' backwardness continues to be forcibly expanded.
So, take Horry again.
Harris asked Rodman to participate in the outside attack on the Trail Blazers' double shots. Although the situation improved a little, it was only a little better. However, Leder and Gregg's confidence was bursting, and the game became smoother and smoother.
How else can I make a substitution?
Harris's idea was to stop the Blazers from scoring, but now...the opponent's firing point was outside the three-point line, and it was useless for Li Shengli to go up.
On the other hand, Ben and Barkley firmly control defensive rebounds and do not need Li Shengli to play.
So Harris held back and did not make any substitutions, not wanting to affect Li Shengli's physical replenishment until the end of the third quarter.
…
To be honest, before the game, no media or fan dared to say that the Trail Blazers could achieve this situation.
It's not that the Blazers will definitely lose.
This kind of judgment is too arbitrary, and everyone's judgment is...the Blazers will lose with a high probability, and even if they win, it will only be a narrow victory with a few points lead.
But in fact, the current situation on the field completely exceeded everyone's expectations.
The Trail Blazers' outside three-pointer?
In the third quarter, they not only erased the Lakers' 4-point lead, but also chased points frantically. 12 three-pointers in a single quarter is considered a lot in any game, not to mention the Blazers' 12-hit shooting. 7. He scored 21 points in one quarter with three-pointers alone, leading the Lakers by 10 points.
…
The score in the third quarter was 38:26.
What's the rhythm of this horse riding?
If the fight continues like this, won't the Lakers lose?
In fact, the Lakers also lost several games in the regular season. The loss was due to the difference in game state and on-the-spot performance. To put it simply...their own performance was not good, but the opponent's performance was outstanding.
And now after the third quarter, this difference is probably the situation.
Almost everyone feels that the Lakers have no chance, at least in this game, because the Blazers are too hot and will not be weakened by the Lakers' defense, but as long as it continues...
The Lakers couldn't solve the Blazers on the defensive end.
On the offensive end, it cannot offset the Blazers' onslaught.
No matter who looks at it, the balance of victory has already tilted towards the Trail Blazers. It will only get worse and worse as the game continues, not to mention that Lakers core Li Shengli has already played for two and a half quarters... 12+9+1+1+2 data. This is Li Shengli seems to be at his lowest point, right?
…
No one expected this situation, including O'Neal and Mourning who were watching from the sidelines. In fact, when they saw the Lakers being beaten by the Trail Blazers with a three-pointer... both of them almost peed with laughter.
Shaq, have you peed?
Pee, pee, pee, hahaha!
It's over, I won, I finally defeated you two bastards!
It doesn't matter, as long as I don't lose to Lee, I can lose to anyone. O'Neal shouted excitedly into the phone: Okay, there's no need to read the following. Even if the Lakers can come back, Lee's data will be the same. If I can't surpass you, I'll transfer the stake from this game to you, and you remember to ask Li to ask for it to prevent this bastard from defaulting on his debt.
12+9+1+1+2, Li Shengli has the last quarter left.
30+11+3+3+5, this is Mourning’s leading data in the first game.
Comparing the two items, except for rebounds and assists, it is okay, but aside from these two items, it is difficult for Li Shengli to score 18 points, 2 steals, and 3 blocks in a single quarter, not to mention that the prerequisite is that the Lakers must be able to win.
But how can the Lakers win?
The Trail Blazers' three-point offensive started.
To be honest, if the Trail Blazers can maintain this rhythm in every game, the championship will not matter to other teams. After all, they are playing at their peak state. This peak state... If nothing else, they can basically be guaranteed. All alliance kills.
Thinking of this, O'Neal did not hesitate at all. He unilaterally announced the end of the first game and sent money directly to Mourning. Mourning also made the same unilateral announcement... accepted the bet paid by O'Neal and now waited for Li Shengli to pay. .
The problem is Li Shengli's side...
He was going crazy during the break.
Lose, lose $100,000.
Win, win two hundred thousand dollars!
The key is that this is not a multiple-choice question, and in his subconscious, he lost more than 100,000, because he lost even the 200,000 he thought he would get, so inside and outside...he lost thirty thousand Ten thousand!
Oh shit!
Horse riding!
I will fight with you!
Not to mention being behind by 10 points, even if you are behind by 20 points, I have to beat the opponent's head and fart!
If you want to play, then play big!
Thinking of this... Li Shengli's whole body aura surged, which is very rare in his career.
At this time, everyone in the Lakers suddenly felt an inexplicable chill down their spines and their heartbeats accelerated. When they turned around and saw Li Shengli at the center of the aura storm, their hair immediately exploded because everyone knew that Li Shengli in this state was... the source of disaster.
