NBA: I was the No. 1 pick at the beginning

In the third game, the home court came to Portland.

Obviously the home fans want the team to win the game.

Although they also know that there is still a gap between the Blazers and the Lakers.

But victory is what every Trail Blazers fan wants to see most.

In the evening, the two teams officially started the third game at the Rose Garden Arena.

The starting lineups of the two teams are still unchanged.

Originally, Monty wanted Kobe to rest this game.

But Kobe disagreed, and Monty also knew Kobe's thoughts, so the final decision was fine.

So the starting lineup for the Lakers is still the five of them.

Soon the match between the two began.

After the game started, the Blazers took advantage of the home court.

Lillard and McCrum scored consecutive points.

Neither Matthew nor Kobe defended them.

But also on the Lakers' side, Chen Tian and Anthony's offense on the Blazers' side also failed to defend.

But the Blazers don't seem to care about it.

In fact, since this season, the defensive tactics of the other 29 teams against the Lakers have undergone great changes.

They also know that defending Anthony can still think about it.

But defending Chen Tian is really unrealistic.

Chen Tian's offensive ability and passing ability are top-notch in history, so double-teaming Chen Tianna is tantamount to giving ammunition to the rest of the Lakers.

So what they finally decided was, no matter what happened to Chen Tian.

If they play a good offense, they can also compete with the Lakers.

So this game, the Blazers mean it.

They completely started to play the twin stars of Lillard and McCrum.

Not to mention, the two teams really played evenly in the first quarter.

Lillard's consecutive shots made Matthew's shots a little suspicious.

Is his defense that bad?

In fact, it can only be said that Lillard feels really good.

In the first quarter, the two teams were completely king-to-king.

Lillard continued to use screens to score the ball.

Chen Tian also succeeded in consecutive singles against Aminu.

On one side, McCrum and Anthony received their pass at any time, and then scored the ball.

The performance of the four also made the entire Rose Garden Arena excited.

Both Anthony and McCrum showed exactly what a guard with a knife is.

As long as Lillard and Chen Tian pass the ball, both of them can score.

In this way, in the first quarter of the game, the two teams played an even match.

But in the second quarter, the Lakers still routinely let Chen Tianlai lead the team.

But on the Trail Blazers side, Lillard didn't even rest.

He played the entire first quarter.

This made Chen Tian see a trace of fear in his eyes.

It is conceivable that the Blazers regard this game as a game that must be won.

Sure enough, with Lillard here, the Blazers did not experience the defeat in the second quarter of the first two games.

The two teams played back and forth.

In this game, the Blazers are obviously much better.

After returning to the home court, the substitute players also played well.

Especially for Henderson, he also scored two three-pointers from the outside in the second quarter.

But the Lakers have Chen Tian on their side, and the offense is still going on in an orderly manner.

But no one expected that the Blazers would be so tenacious.

Especially Lillard, this guy has no intention of playing singles at all, all of them are scoring points after pick-and-rolls.

On this point, even Chen Tian couldn't defend so meticulously.

Finally, in the second half of the second quarter, Lillard managed to get McCrum and the others back.

The two teams once again fell into a stalemate.

Although Kobe, Anthony and others on the Lakers side also returned to the court.

But tonight's Blazers showed their infinite combat effectiveness.

They vowed to win the game.

The offense of the two teams is also getting sharper.

The fans off the court also shouted to cheer for their home team.

This is really a home buff. Listening to the cheers of the home team fans, everyone will try their best.

This is the embodiment of the pioneers now.

The two teams tied at 56:56 in the final half.

In this game, the Lakers played well. It can only be said that the Blazers are too accurate.

Even Aminu scored three three-pointers in the first half.

But the mood on the Lakers' side is still good, and it has not been affected in any way.

Because everyone knows that the Blazers cannot be like this every game.

You must know that Lillard did not rest for a minute in the first half.

So in the fourth game, Lillard was a big problem.

Monty and Kaleman were not worried because they knew that the group of children had grown up.

Soon the second half of the game began.

Back in the second half, the Blazers changed their starters.

Let Henderson replace Morris, after all, this guy played pretty well in the first half.

After the start of the second half, Lillard started to pass the ball.

McCrum, Aminu and Henderson all scored the ball.

The Lakers are starting to play inside offense.

Jokic continued to force Plumlee on the inside and succeeded.

The scores of the two teams are still leading alternately.

And Chen Tian found miraculously that Lillard and McCrum on the Trail Blazers had no intention of taking a rest.

It proves that the two are ready to play the second half of the game.

Lillard really played the whole game.

After that, Chen Tian began to play, although Lillard's spirit Chen Tian liked it very much.

But a game is a game, and victory is king.

So in the second half of the third quarter, Chen Tian started to exert his strength.

Break through to the inside with the ball, change hands for a layup and score the ball.

Afterwards, Chen Tian faced Aminu's defense again, and also scored in the mid-range shot.

Then after another breakthrough, he avoided the defensive swing dunk and dunked the ball into the basket.

Chen Tian scored six points by himself.

At the end of the third quarter, with Chen Tian's performance, the Lakers temporarily took the lead over the Blazers.

But after returning from the fourth quarter.

The situation changed suddenly, and Lillard and McCrum broke out suddenly.

Continuous outside shots scored the ball, especially Lillard, which was even more difficult to score consecutive three-pointers.

That little lead is gone.

In this way, the two teams stalemate until the last 15 seconds.

At this time, the Lakers temporarily led by two points at 119:117.

But the ball is with the Blazers.

Back from the timeout, Lillard received the ball and did not rush to attack.

When Chen Tian saw Lillard controlling the ball from outside the three-point line, he immediately felt something was wrong.

"Defend out, he's going to shoot!"

When Matthew heard Chen Tian's words, he immediately flew over.

But it was still a step too late.

Lillard threw the ball a meter from the three-point line.
