NBA: I am the card dealer

Chapter 472 Big Score 21

At the end of the game, Xue Liancheng made 22 of 10, 12 of 5 three-pointers, and 6 of 5 free throws, barely scoring 30 points.

The score is not low, but this is Xue Liancheng's personal performance. Coupled with the comparison of 50+ in the previous game, everyone thinks this is a normal performance, but it is definitely not outstanding.

However, 30 of these 14 points were scored in the final quarter.

If it weren't for Xue Liancheng's three-pointer, the game would have been over in suspense.

In addition to 30 points, he also had 9 assists and 7 rebounds.

The assists failed to reach double figures, which shows how difficult the Lakers' offense is.

It can also illustrate a problem from the side. The condition of teammates is really bad. Fast break transitions are blocked, breakthroughs and air cuts have not achieved positive results.

The Lakers had many problems exposed in this game.

The biggest problem comes from another top star in the team, George. His performance was worse than in the previous game. He made 18 of 5 shots and only scored 12 points, which was extremely tragic.

It did not share the pressure for Xue Liancheng at all, but instead increased Xue Liancheng's burden, which was definitely a hindrance on the offensive end.

Therefore, in terms of momentum, the Lakers firmly have the upper hand.

What's more, George's two consecutive downturns did not give Xue Liancheng enough support. Otherwise, the outcome would be really difficult to predict.

Cutting and assault have also become empty talk.

It was precisely because of the failure of Courtney Lee and Randall's three-pointers that George was also sluggish, causing Xue Liancheng to struggle to support on the court, and the breakthrough space was compressed to the extreme.

First of all, the big score is currently 1:1, and both games were played at the Oracle Center, the Warriors' home court.

Curry made 19 of 4, 11 of 1 three-pointers, and only scored 13 points, which was also tragic enough.

After returning to Los Angeles with 1:1, it will further boost the overall morale of the Lakers.

In other words, the Lakers have regained their home court advantage.

otherwise……

On the bench.

In the end, Xue Liancheng gave all Warriors fans a shocking moment.

Zubac's playing time in this game was very limited, but his offensive performance was pretty good. He scored 5 points and 3 rebounds on 6 of 5 goals. Zubac is still good at eating cakes.

In the first game, the Lakers took a big lead at halftime, and gradually fell behind in the third quarter. They almost caught up in the fourth quarter, but unfortunately, Xue Liancheng repeatedly sapped the Warriors, suffocating them to death on the spot.

The performance of others is similar to that of the Lakers' role players, which is quite average.

Thompson made 15 of 7 shots, 7 of 3 three-pointers, and scored 20 points. He is another Optimus Prime for the Warriors.

of course.

Marvin Williams made 9 of 4 shots and also scored 10 points.

It's really possible that he was stunned by Xue Liancheng's consecutive three-pointers.

But he is still much better than George. Apart from his weak three-pointers, he is still capable of making waves in the penalty area.

The Warriors are not much better.

Although the Warriors won, after the game, the media's direction changed drastically.

Most of them were mid-range or high two-pointers, and there were only a handful of sudden dunks.

James Johnson shot 8 of 2 and only scored 6 points.

In the second game, the two sides fought fiercely. The Warriors were unable to suffocate the Lakers in one breath from beginning to end. The Lakers were also very tenacious. After the double-digit point difference approached, they were never pulled away.

兰德尔表现也不尽人意，15投6中，三分球3中0，拿到了16分9篮板的准两双数据。

The performance of the three major substitutes completely revealed the Lakers' dilemma.

Moreover, as one of the most stable three-pointers in the league, the Lakers, in addition to Xue Liancheng hitting 5 three-pointers in this game, George scored 1, Clarkson scored 1, and James Johnson scored 1. , made 31 three-pointers and scored a total of 8, which can be described as quite poor.

Especially the mid-range shot at the end of the fourth quarter, it was really a life-saving ball!

This illustrates a problem. The Lakers are not as big as the Warriors in terms of hard power as imagined.

In terms of mid-range, Durant is undoubtedly the leader. In this game, he once again showed his prowess, shooting 21 of 10 and scoring a double-double of 31 points and 11 rebounds.

In this game, it was due to his and Durant's outstanding performance that the Warriors narrowly won.

The shooting rate is only 25.8%. The direct result of such a three-point shooting rate is that the Warriors desperately shrink their defense. Xue Liancheng, George, and even Clarkson simply cannot break through.

Secondly, the trends of these two games are very different.

Courtney Lee shot 10 of 3 and 4 of 0 three-pointers, which was also very ugly, scoring only 7 points.

This factor is the reason why the Lakers' offense is so bleak.

Clarkson made 10 of 3 shots, which was also hard to explain, but he still scored 11 points by relying on free throws.

The main thing is that my mentality is really affected.

Their offensive firepower was completely unable to support them, which made them struggle back and forth on the death line.

Vitality and impact can still cause huge trouble to the Warriors.

And the only three-pointer that was hit was the one that once made people think that Curry was going to take off.

Such a dismal shooting rate also had a profound impact on the Warriors' penalty area, and their breakthrough was not easy.

风向自然也从预测的勇士4:2湖人，或者勇士4:3湖人，变成了湖人4:3干翻勇士。

"This is definitely a preview of the finals. No team in the league currently has such fighting power."

"The Warriors almost fell behind 0:2. If they lose two home games in a row, there will really be no suspense at all."

"It seems that the legendary Cosmos Yong is not so invincible after all!"

"I originally thought that the first defeat was due to Green's injury. But now, it seems that is not the case. The Lakers are really strong."

"The Warriors with Green's offensive flow is indeed much better."

That's right.

The reason why the Warriors' first loss did not cause a sensation was because Green's injury disrupted the Warriors' offensive rhythm.

Although the Warriors lost, everyone still believes that the Warriors can adjust. After all, Green is no longer there and the Warriors also have the Big Three.

I never expected that the Warriors would play so hard in the second game, and were almost overturned by Xue Liancheng single-handedly at the last moment.

At this time, people have to re-examine the true strength of the Warriors.

In other words, thinking about whether the Lakers are seriously underestimated.

This is where the change in wind direction comes from.

People no longer have invincible confidence in warriors.

The resilience shown by the Lakers also has the championship impact.

Before this game, people regarded the Lakers as the biggest obstacle to the universe's pursuit of the championship. This is undoubtedly a compliment to the Lakers.

After all, the super battleship Cosmos Yong is really intimidating and makes people dare not look directly at it.

It is a great honor to be included in the list of those who threaten the universe.

The Lakers are directly regarded as the biggest threat, and the degree of recognition can be imagined.
