The basketball arced high.

bang.

Out of the basket.

Mozgov grabbed the rebound and the Cavaliers randomly launched a counterattack.

After James quickly dribbled the ball across the half, knowing that he had an offensive opportunity, he still chose to pass the basketball to Love. The latter stopped suddenly outside the three-point line and raised his hand to throw a three-pointer.

The basketball arced high.

Swish.

Hollow into the net.

Lakers offense.

Qin Feng tried to hit the ball in response and made a three-pointer from the outside, but unfortunately he missed.

After James dribbled the ball through the half, he broke through to the penalty area and used his strong physical ability to complete a layup, which also caused a foul by the chasing Antetokounmpo.

Get a chance to add a penalty.

James stood on the free throw line and hit the free throw steadily.

The point difference was narrowed to 9 points.

beep.

Lakers coach Steve Kerr called a timeout.

He adjusted the lineup, replaced Lowry and Jokic, replaced Morris and Butler, and directly changed to a small lineup.

As such.

Qin Feng became the core of the team and came to the position of point guard.

After a pause comes back.

Qin Feng held the ball at the top of the arc, played a pick-and-roll with Antetokounmpo and threw the basketball into the hands of Antetokounmpo. The latter was about to make a layup, but suddenly saw Kobe ambushing in the bottom corner, with a huge open space.

So with a flick of his wrist, he passed the basketball over without any hesitation.

Seeing this scene, Qin Feng couldn't help feeling, Brother Antetokounmpo knows basketball...

There was no one three meters in front of Kobe, so he took aim and made a steady three-pointer.

The basketball arced high.

Swish.

Hollow into the net.

In again!

Cheers.

Kobe also looked at his hands in disbelief, a little unbelievable.

Today's hand feeling is really good!

The Cavaliers attack.

James shot a three-pointer from the outside and hit it again.

The Lakers fought back.

Not to be outdone, Qin Feng threw a three-pointer against James' defense from the outside.

Swish.

Also hollow into the net.

The two sides once again entered into a fierce confrontational battle.

Kobe is still the most aggressive man on the Lakers.

The third quarter is over.

The Lakers still maintain a 14-point lead.

And Kobe Bryant's score in three quarters has come to 37 points.

Only 3 points away, Kobe was able to score 40 points, so he also became the largest player in NBA history to score 40 points in a single game.

Countless fans watching this game are looking forward to it.

Soon the fourth quarter began.

Steve Kerr was also very smart to keep Kobe on the court.

40 points did not keep fans waiting too long.

In a Lakers offense, Kobe hit a three-pointer again after receiving the basketball.

Completed the feat of 40 points in a single game.

At this time, there are still as many as 10 minutes before the full game.

So the fans began to expect Kobe to get more points, and even wondered if Kobe could score 50 points?

With such strong expectations, fans care more about Kobe's performance.

But unfortunately.

Kobe began to strike frequently in the next two or three minutes.

It can be clearly seen that his physical strength has declined severely, which directly affects his shooting touch.

As Kobe's shooting touch declined, the Lakers' offense also stagnated.

The Cavaliers seized the opportunity and played a 3:10 offensive climax in less than 3 minutes, directly reducing the point difference to 7 points.

In a dead ball session.

Lakers head coach Steve Kerr hurriedly made substitution adjustments, replacing Kobe with Qin Feng.

Although Kobe's performance is important, the victory of this game is even more important, because with Kobe's character, what he cares about is not personal data, but the victory of the game.

This is the exact opposite of what fans expected.

After Qin Feng appeared on the stage, he directly started the personal offensive mode, showing his super offensive ability, scoring consecutive hits.

In less than 2 minutes, he led the team to respond with an 8:2 offensive climax, extending the lead to 13 points again.

Seeing this, Tyronn Lue also replaced James, Smith and many other main players.

The final battle begins.

On the Lakers side, Cole also replaced Kobe again.

At the critical moment of this decisive battle, Kobe is absolutely unwilling to sit on the bench and be a spectator. Moreover, he played a very good performance in this game, so he is even more eager to show his role in the decisive battle.

The Cavaliers took the lead in attacking.

With a murderous look in James' eyes, facing Qin Feng's defense, he suddenly stepped back and shot a three-pointer after continuous dribbling.

The basketball arced high.

Swish.

Hollow into the net.

At the critical moment, James once again showed his ability to play key shots, which is incomprehensible and arrogant.

But the Lakers on the opposite side have someone even more incomprehensible than him.

It is Qin Feng.

However, Qin Feng did not catch the ball to open the singles, but passed the basketball to Kobe, who stopped suddenly and made a fadeaway jumper.

bang.

Out of the basket.

A few minutes off the court didn't help Bryant get his offensive game back.

The Cavaliers counterattacked.

After halftime, James dribbled the ball, faced Qin Feng's defense, and reacted very quickly. He directly changed the attack method. After making a fake move, he broke into the penalty area, and then forced his way up against the defense of Brother Antetokounmpo. Basket hit.

The point difference was narrowed to 8 points.

Lakers offense.

Kobe held the ball at the top of the arc, and instead of forcing an attack, he threw the basketball into Qin Feng's hands. After receiving the ball, he raised his hand and threw a three-pointer.

The basketball arced high.

Swish.

Hollow into the net.

The point difference returned to 11 points.

When Kobe misfired, Qin Feng stood up without hesitation.

The Cavaliers attack.

James played singles for two consecutive rounds, and his physical strength dropped significantly, so he passed the ball to Irving to let him control the team's offense.

Irving used his angry dribble to shake away the defender and broke into the penalty area, then made a stop jumper.

The Lakers fought back.

It was Qin Feng again. After breaking through the penalty area, he made a layup and caused a foul by Love, and got a chance to add a penalty.

He got to the free-throw line and made a solid free throw.

The point difference came to 12 points.

The two sides fell into a stalemate.

With 2 minutes left before the end of the game, the Lakers still firmly held a 14-point lead.

The game basically lost its suspense.

The fans cheered and waited for the end of the game.

But they also have a regret, that is, Kobe didn't score in the next few minutes.

Fortunately, at the end of the field, Kobe made a mid-range shot, which increased his score a little bit.

Finally the game is over.

115: 138.

The Lakers won the Christmas game by 13 points, maintaining the winning streak of the Christmas game.

Simultaneously.

Qin Feng also maintains his undefeated record in the Christmas War, and has won the record of James in the Christmas War consecutively! !
