Chapter 347 The water in Angel City is too deep, I cant control it(2/2)
As soon as he turned around, the ball flew over his head.
After another step, he jumped up.
Pau Gasol dove into the paint and jumped when he saw the ball coming.
But at this moment, he caught sight of the arrival of Pioneer 36 out of the corner of his eye, which made his heart tremble.
But now the arrow was on the string and he had to fire it. He grabbed the ball flying from the side with both hands, gritted his teeth and pressed down.
"Snapped!"
Wang Zelin pressed his left palm firmly on the basketball, pulled it down, and used the huge inertia of his sprint to knock Pau Gasso to the floor with the ball.
"Bang!"
With a muffled sound, Pau Gasol fell heavily to the floor, but the basketball was firmly in Wang Zelin's hand.
"Yes!"
Amidst the fierce cheers, countless palms in the rose garden began to wave.
"Time to fight back!"
Wang Zelin bent down and turned his head. With a roar, he threw the ball toward the Lakers half with one hand. Lillard finally received the pass and succeeded in another dunk.
"Oh ho ho ho!"
The scene was boiling again.
"Ahem..."
Lying on the floor, Pau Gasol saw a fierce face above and a pair of eyes as calm as water while coughing violently.
It's as if the shocking grab just now was nothing in the eyes of the latter?
The new generation is better than the old one!
There are talented people from all over the country!
Pau Gasol thought about how his rookie season was unparalleled. He was competing with talented rookies in the same class, but he had the last laugh and won the only opportunity in a player's career to win the Rookie of the Year award.
Nowadays, he seems to have been reduced to the exclusive background of countless talented newcomers, and I can't help but feel a little sad.
Wang Zelin stood in front of Pau Gasol, glanced down, and turned around without leaving any trash talk.
When the Lakers attacked, Nick Young, who was somewhat advanced, once again faced Batum's close defense and made a strong shot, and hit a three-pointer.
Wang Zelin grabbed the rebound. At this time, there was no one guarding the Lakers penalty area. He threw it directly. Lillard did not take a second shot and performed a one-handed dunk again. When Kobe turned around and tried to defend, it was too late.
58:58!
The Blazers finally tied the score.
"It seems that the Lakers failed to overcome this hurdle after all. After two rounds of offensive attacks, the Blazers succeeded in counterattacking twice. If the Lakers still have nothing to gain in the next round, I think the balance of victory will definitely begin.
tilt."
Yu Jia laughed.
At this time, everyone knew that the next person in charge of the Lakers' offense must be No. 24 - Kobe Bryant!
It can only be him!
Coming to the frontcourt, Kobe did not take possession of the ball immediately. Instead, he waited until halfway through the attack time before taking the ball from Steve Blake in the low post on the right.
At this time, other teammates have already pulled away, and there are still 11 seconds left in the attack time.
Without any hesitation, Kobe made a decisive move after catching the ball.
Because he knew very well that as long as he waited for another 1 to 2 seconds, the Trail Blazers would definitely send another player to double-team him. Instead of facing a 1VS2 situation, it would be better to face the current 1VS1.
But to his great surprise, Matthews actually reacted and interfered very timely. Kobe used force twice in the air and leaned back slightly, barely escaping the block.
Seeing that the block was in vain, Matthews felt frustrated at first. Even though his defense was so good, he still couldn't guard Kobe.
But the next moment ~ Duang!
The sound of hammering, which was so boring in the past, is now like the sound of nature, making Matthews instantly turn from sadness to joy.
Am I on guard?
This ball was still blocked by me!
Kobe was unwilling to give in. In his opinion, it was a huge waste to miss a rare open opportunity!
Well, only in the eyes of the Black Mamba, 1-on-1 single defense is regarded as an open position.
But no matter what, the goal was not scored after all. The rebound was protected by Wang Zelin and handed over to Lillard.
frontcourt.
Aldridge caught the ball in the low post, faced Jordan Hill's defense, and made his trademark straight-arm shot, hitting the basketball into the basket.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! At 60:58, the Trail Blazers went ahead by 2 points.
Everything is just as Yu Jia said, excessive consumption of physical energy in the first half to cause damage and draw fouls is not without cost. When Kobe cannot guarantee the offensive failure, that is when the Lakers' decline will be fully revealed.
On the next shot, Kobe forced Matthews to the basket. As soon as he took the shot, Wang Zelin pinned it on the backboard.
"The king blocked the shot for the fourth time tonight! He blocked Kobe's offense and the Lakers' hope of counterattack... The king passed the ball! Super long-distance connection... It was Lillard again, he completed the finish at the basket
!”
Suddenly, the score difference has reached 4 points.
The Trail Blazers are gaining momentum, but the Lakers, on the other hand, are showing signs of being overwhelmed.
This is also true.
At the end of the three quarters, the Trail Blazers scored 34 points in a single quarter and limited the Lakers' scoring to 11 points, 88:66...
The Trail Blazers were too far ahead, and several Lakers players on the court lost any energy.
In the fourth quarter, the main players went all-in, and both sides tacitly agreed that all substitutes would come on.
Everyone on the Lakers bench felt as if a huge boulder had been weighed down on them. Their bodies were tired and their hearts were even more tired. How could anyone look around and feel confused?
The same is true for Lakers coach D'Antoni, perhaps even more so.
He came to Angel City with high spirits last season, thinking about how to lead the F4 team to win the first NBA championship in his professional coaching career. He had even thought about how to win another championship after winning the first championship.
The 2nd one, the 3rd one...
He wants to be in Los Angeles, in this world-famous City of Angels, and become a generation-famous coach who can rival the greats in the coaching world such as the red coach and the Zen Master.
Now it seems that he thought too much.
D'Antoni took one last look at the Blazers players who were still celebrating in the center of the court, and then withdrew his gaze:
Chapter completed!
