Chapter 328 Countdown
[Fifth update]
Kobe quickly led the ball through the half and met Wu Feng again. "" Looking at Wu Feng's nervous and cautious look, Kobe suddenly felt a little relaxed.
Anyway, there is not a great hope of winning, so it is better to let go and play. In this case, a miracle may happen.
After several consecutive fake moves, Wu Feng was unmoved at all.
Kobe seemed to have eyes behind his head, and he accurately delivered the ball to Derek Fisher's hand. He took a step forward and blocked Wu Feng tightly on the right.
Taking advantage of the opportunity that Kobe created for him, the old fish quickly got up and took action without hesitation. Unfortunately, his strength seemed to be a little smaller, and the ball hit the basket and bounced high.
Ron Artest stretched out his arms and pressed Gerald Wallace behind him, making a difficult tip-in.
"Great..." The Lakers cheered on the bench.
The Zen master also clenched his fists in excitement.
The Magic's offense, Dwight Howard took over Wu Feng's wonderful pass, and forced Paul Gasol to hit him with a backward jump shot. Unfortunately, he was short and the rebound was taken off by Paul Gasol.
"Swish", Old Fish Fisher directly made a three-pointer, but he actually made a miracle.
"Wow..." Another cheer burst out from the Lakers bench.
"yeah!!!" Derek Fisher and Kobe celebrated with high fives.
It was Kobe's quick pass just now that Lao Yu had the chance to score a three-pointer.
"Drip", the Orlando Magic requested a timeout.
Now Stan Van Gundy has to call a timeout, because the current situation is very unfavorable for the Magic. The Lakers have narrowed the gap. If they don't call for a timeout now, it is very likely that the score will catch up.
"I really don't know how to criticize everyone. To be honest, I don't want to criticize everyone. Everyone is fighting fiercely in this game. I saw and saw your desire to win. But just now, our defense is like shit, and I don't understand why we made such a clumsy defense. Now I don't want to know the reason, I just want to see that after the timeout, you can play our defense out. Everyone, this is the third game of the finals, and countless people are paying attention to this game. "I hope we can win, well, that's the purpose of my call for this timeout." Stan Van Gundy said to the Magic with a gloomy face.
Perhaps it was because he was scolded by Stan Van Gundy. After the timeout, the Magic's defensive intensity was indeed strengthened. The strong defense caught the Lakers off guard and made consecutive mistakes in the offense. The Magic used a quick counterattack to score 4 points in a row. The Magic finally widened the gap to 9 points again.
Kobet personally led the ball through the midfield, raised his left hand high and said, "Calm down, calm down."
As the boss of Los Angeles, Kobe must remind his teammates to remain absolutely calm at this moment.
Under his command and dispatch, the Lakers players quickly ran. The Magic currently adopts regional joint defense. Let the Lakers change in a variety of ways, and it only takes one move to respond to changes in all changes.
Kobe passed the ball to the beast.
Gerald Wallace was very focused, ignoring the opponent's fake moves at all, staring at Ron Artest with his eyes tightly.
He tapped his left foot in front of the left, then pulled it back and tapped it in front of the right. After several consecutive tests, the light flashed in Ron Artest's eyes.
"Huh..." Gerald Wallace felt a gust of wind in his ears, and Ron Artest's body rushed to his left like lightning, quickly took a step back, spread his arms, and tried to stop Ron Artest.
The moment Gerald Wallace had just adjusted, he was suddenly shocked. Ron Artest did not choose to get rid of himself, but directly hit his left shoulder.
When determining a defensive foul, once the defender has established a legal defensive position, he must maintain this position, that is, he must not stretch his arms, shoulders, hips or legs to prevent the dribbling players passing by him, but his arms stretching is so big.
With concern in his heart, Gerald Wallace instinctively put away the movement in his hand. Seeing that the two were about to collide, Ron Artest stepped forward and stepped on the floor hard. His upper body leaned forward and rotated 180 degrees in the air, moving a few centimeters to the left. It was precisely this distance of several centimeters that allowed him to easily pass through Gerald Wallace's left.
Gerald Wallace had concerns in his heart, so he naturally had distracted himself in the defense. It was too late to make up for it now, so he watched Ron Artest leave.
The beautiful breakthrough not only broke through Gerald Wallace's defense, but also caught the Magic off guard.
At this time, only Dwight Howard was left at the Magic's basket, a beautiful pass from behind. Ron Artest, who was breaking through, moved the ball to the other side. Paul Gasol, who was following closely behind, easily caught the ball, took two steps forward quickly, and took the air with the help of the inertia of the body. At this time, the Lakers had formed a two-on-one situation at the basket. (")
Dwight Howard felt cold in his heart, bit his teeth and quickly rushed out, allowing the opponent to dunk unscrupulously in his half, which was undoubtedly the biggest shame for inside players.
Paul Gasol's hands were in a flat manner, and the ball flew over Dwight Howard's head. After Ron Artest received the ball, he tapped the ground with his right foot, dragged the ball up with his right hand, and gently shook his wrist. The ball rubbed against the rebound and fell into the net bag.
The Magic's counterattack was not done, and the Lakers protected the rebounds.
Under Wu Feng's tight targeting defense throughout the game, Kobe led the ball through half in a little embarrassed manner.
He passed the ball just after halftime.
Vince Carter quickly rushed out and flew past his eyes with a slight difference. However, even so, Ron Artest was shocked and made a breakthrough. However, when he saw the Magic's basket, he moved his heart, thrust his body suddenly, rubbed the ball gently with his hands, and the ball flew obliquely to the upper edge of the basket.
Dwight Howard jumped high and tried to cut the ball directly in the air. As his hands were about to touch the ball, a strong figure jumped up behind him with a more rapid momentum, took the lead and took the ball into his hand, and took the opportunity to hit the ball with both hands and hit the ball.
With aerial work between Ron Artest and Paul Gasol, the Lakers once again easily scored two points.
Gerald Wallace served on the bottom line, Wu Feng gently slapped the basketball, and the ball rolled forward on the floor. Wu Feng followed closely behind the ball, and then leaned over to pick up the ball.
After getting the ball, Wu Feng's agile figure once again became active in the Lakers' half. He broke through and passed the ball, Vince Carter jumped out from the bottom line, and the ball entered the net.
He took a long breath and gently pressed his right hand against his rapidly rising chest. Looking at the Lakers player who was still full of fighting spirit, he sighed in his heart. He knew his body best. With his current physical strength, he might be able to support the game until the end of the game.
He wished he could rest for a few minutes on the sidelines, but it was obviously not suitable for now. Both teams were in excellent condition. At present, there was no sign of losing the chain. Once he got out of the field, he had no idea whether the team could withstand the Lakers' counterattack.
Phil Jackson is not blind either. Any move on the court is in his eyes. Wu Feng just showed a hint of fatigue. For the first time, he felt that victory was so close to him. Taking advantage of a chance to die, he replaced Kobe with Steve Blake.
Looking at Steve Blake who was constantly disturbing himself in front of him, Wu Feng's expression turned cold, and the Lakers actually took a tight target to defend himself.
With Wu Feng's current strength and reputation, it is generally futile to target him in full-game defense, but at this time, the Lakers actually used this move, obviously seeing his physical strength problems.
He rushed the ball across the half, quickly handed it to Vince Carter, who was forward to meet, and quickly penetrated the baseline. He knew very well that since the Lakers had seen this clearly, as long as the ball was in his hands, he would definitely not relax himself easily.
Steve Blake is experienced enough, but his physical strength is not his strength, and he has always been not good at running.
When Wu Feng was controlling the ball, with the cooperation of his teammates, he could limit Wu Feng's performance within a certain range. However, once Wu Feng lifted the burden of the organization and ran in the basket, he was easily thrown away with his current steps in just a few steps.
With the help of the inside player at the basket, Wu Feng easily got rid of the defensive player and quickly ran to the right wing baseline. Ron Artest looked at Vince Carter in front of him, Wu Feng on the left. He could only choose one of the two, biting his teeth and abandoning Vince Carter.
Ron Artest's abacus was jingling, but things were far from as simple as he thought. At the moment he made up for defense, Gerald Wallace quickly retreated, and the two collided together.
Vince Carter naturally would not miss the opportunity that appeared here, and the target of passing the ball was Wu Feng. Even if the ball was in his hands, he could handle the ball properly.
Facing the unguarded basket, Wu Feng was very calm, paid attention to the position under his feet, then jumped high, held the ball over his head with both hands, and gently pushed out his wrists. Feeling the basketball sliding between his fingers, Wu Feng was delighted: "I have a chance..."
"Swish", the beautiful hollow ball brought waves of white waves under the basket, and Wu Feng shook his right hand fiercely.
Stan Van Gundy naturally noticed Wu Feng's problem. In fact, he sought Wu Feng's opinions before the start of the fourth quarter, but with Wu Feng's insistence, he dismissed the plan to let Wu Feng rest for a few minutes.
Wu Feng is not a player who is prone to being hot-headed. He is exhausted, so he simply took off the burden of the organization and ran more without the ball on the court. In this way, the Lakers' defense will be even more difficult.
Although Wu Feng's physical strength has already been problematic, no one in the Lakers can catch up with him for his running speed without the ball. But if you ignore it, Phil Jackson does not have such great courage.
"Swish" the sound of the nets was crisp, and Wu Feng turned around and jumped near the free throw line.
Three shots and three hits, Wu Feng fired at full range.
The Lakers' defense was not very good. Phil Jackson commanded anxiously on the sidelines, but was utterly fouled by the referee, and then he had no choice but to return to the bench. However, seeing his restless look, he really wanted to come out and pull Wu Feng's running in person.
However, the above scene made him see hope in desperate situations. Wu Feng fired one after another, and the Magic did not take the opportunity to open the score. Vince Carter's organization played very well, but on the smooth passing surface, it seemed that something was missing.
With the official timeout, the Magic temporarily led the opponent by 7 points with a 108:101 advantage. The 7-point difference is not a point difference that can determine the outcome for both sides, especially the current core players of the Magic are troubled by physical strength.
The continuous and frequent breakthroughs have made Wu Feng's physical energy consume at an astonishing level. However, Wu Feng's physical strength has always been amazing. In the previous games, he did not show any fatigue at all. However, today it seems that his physical strength has finally reached its limit.
Wu Feng refused Stan Van Gundy's suggestion to rest. His body was very clear. Now, he could still persist, but he knew that once he sat on the sidelines to rest, he might not be able to hold on.
Wu Feng's resilience was beyond everyone's expectations. His shaking body was like a broken leaf in the wind and a small boat in the ocean, and there was danger of falling down at any time. However, he never fell down, using accurate shooting time and time again to maintain a slight advantage for the Magic.
…………
"Clang", Paul Gasol succeeded in his flying bang.
112:111, the Lakers narrowed the gap to one point, and at this time the game only had the last fifty-one seconds left.
The Magic called a short pause, and the winner was only between one round, and both teams still had at least one chance to attack. As long as the team seized this opportunity, the Magic would take the absolute initiative.
For safety reasons, Wu Feng responded to Vince Carter in the midfield. The Magic are not eager to achieve this goal. The longer the delay, the more time it takes for the Lakers to attack.
The Lakers naturally cannot sit by and watch the passage of time, but Ron Artest was entangled by Gerald Wallace and could not move at all. Paul Gasol did not dare to leave the basket easily. Theo Ratliff has always been the most worried position of the Lakers. At this time, once Paul Gasol leaves the basket, the Magic take the opportunity to attack the basket.
Chapter completed!
