150: Can you win?
In the locker room, Don Anthony didn't plan his tactics any more. He had already said what he had to say before the game. In the second half, he planned to use Nash and Stoudemire as the core in turn, harassing the Lakers with quick changes.After waiting for all the players to change their clothes, he said loudly: "Guys, there is still half a game left. Whether we can continue this season is only half a game left. Although the Los Angeles people got the match point, they didn't win it." Throughout the series, we still have a chance, our season is not over. And now we are leading, and in the second half Lamarre and Steve took turns to play as the core to attack the opponent's defense."

Compared with the tension in the home team's locker room before the decisive battle, the atmosphere in the visiting team's locker room is very relaxed.Qin Tao gradually got to know the real way to use the controller, and now he is getting more and more relaxed in the game, especially for a team like the Suns with relatively simple offensive methods. "Brothers, the second half is when we end the 2004-2005 Phoenix season, are you ready?"

"Ready!"

"I've been wanting to play the Western Conference finals with the San Antonio guys for a long time."

"We are going to enter the finals and win the championship!"

The various answers from the players made Qin Tao very relieved. The atmosphere of the team is relaxed now. Even though they are two points behind, this is not a problem.He knows how Don Anthony will play in the second half, changing the core back and forth, and he wants to use this to make the Lakers unable to adapt to their offense.But they have two kinds of attack and defense in general. Even if there is a change, it is only the cooperation between Nash and Stoudemire that can make a wonderful and eye-catching change.Still the same sentence, restrict the two of them, and the Phoenix people will be self-defeating.

Although it is difficult to limit Nash and Stoudemire at the same time, Don Anthony was clever but was mistaken for his cleverness. He only thought that changing the core would make the Lakers unable to adapt to their offense.But he didn't expect that after the back and forth changes, other role players of the Phoenix Suns would find it difficult to adapt to his team's offense!

The 15 minutes passed quickly, and the fans also solved their personal problems, and began to prepare to continue cheering for the home team and presenting boos and abuse to the visiting team for free.

As soon as the second half started, the Los Angeles Lakers launched a fierce attack.In fact, the Lakers were still losers in the simulated game, but Qin Tao learned about the Suns' evolution through this defeat.Although the agility potion at the beginning of the first quarter was wasted, the speed potion in the third quarter should be put to good use.This failure also taught Qin Tao a lesson, so that he could not use the potion according to the rhythm he was used to, and he needed to use the potion at the right time.

The first 5 minutes of the third quarter is the time for the Lakers' speed potion to work. The Lakers' "wind time" is very familiar to the Suns, but it is still quite difficult for them to resist. After 5 minutes, the Lakers pulled the point difference to 8 points, but the Suns' offense also played impressively afterwards.Although they had a little time to mess themselves up, Don Anthony realized the mistake and adjusted in time, and the Suns standing on the edge of the cliff launched a crazy counterattack at the end of the third quarter.They narrowed the point difference to 1 point at the end of the three quarters.

"The game in the third quarter was very exciting, but the most exciting thing was the contest between the two teams at the end of the quarter. It can be foreseen that the game in the fourth quarter will be the time for the two teams to fight to the death."

Just as the commentator said, Kobe entered the "superstar mode" at the beginning of the fourth quarter. He scored 8 points in a row to help the team take the lead.But then Nash and Stoudemire once again staged a wonderful pick-and-roll cooperation. Nash shot a three-pointer from the outside, and Stoudemire also caused damage to the Lakers inside, hitting all four shots from the free throw line.

Kobe was defended very well by Marion, and as soon as he got the ball, someone double-teamed him. When Peter Pan was double-teamed, he did not use brute force but continued to distribute the ball.Because the opponent is double-teaming, his teammates must be open.But Butler missed three consecutive open shots, which put the Lakers into a very passive situation.

Brown-Shaw was very anxious when he saw that Butler was obviously out of shape, but Qin Tao didn't show too much worry, but he put Erlang's legs down and sat on the coach's bench expressionlessly. "Qin, do you want to adjust it?" Brown-Shaw said.

"No need, there are still 3 minutes. We are behind by 5 points. It's not that there is no chance. I believe that Caron will not be hit because of consecutive misses." Qin Tao said in a deep voice, obviously he trusts Caron Bart Le.

The fans of the Suns clapped their hands rhythmically to cheer for the team, and now the fans of Phoenix are very optimistic.Now they still have hope, and as long as there is hope, they will not fail.As long as you win this game, and then win the next away game in one go, it is not hopeless to return to the Suns at home.

As the clock ticked and the clock ticked, the hopes of Phoenix fans grew and it seemed that what they expected was about to become a reality.Just when the hope of the Phoenix people was about to become a reality, Peter Pan, who had been silent for most of the quarter, soared into the sky again.He forced a three-pointer from one step outside the left three-point line, and the basketball was like a sharp dagger pierced into the heart of the Phoenix people.

Boo!The boos all over the sky are like countless bees flying back and forth in the center of the air corridor. The boos that are enough to knock down the roof of the arena are really unbearable.But Kobe was completely unmoved. He lowered his head and stared at the floor without looking at anyone, and went back silently to prepare for defense.

"That's the feeling, that's the look. The aloof Kobe completely ignored Shawn Marion's long arms, and his three-pointer spattered the blood of the Phoenix people."

时间还有45.6秒，一切都还没有结束，湖人仅仅以121比126落后4分。“我就说7分的差距不算太大嘛！”秦韬对布朗-肖淡淡的说了一句后缓缓的从教练席上站了起来。

"Defend the ball, victory!" Qin Tao yelled at the players on the field, and his yell seemed to be particularly useful.

"Ah! Kobe steals the ball, the Lakers' fast break—the ball is scored—two points, two points. A 5-0 shock wave, the Lakers once again regained their hope of advancing."

And it seems that in order to crush the hopes in the commentator's mouth, Nash used his speed to break through Butler's defense against him, and hit a layup again.Time is really running out, 23.4 seconds, do the Lakers still have a chance?
"Ah!" The commentator yelled regretfully after being excited, "Butler! How could he let Nash pass by like this? Caron was sleepwalking throughout the game, why didn't Qin Tao replace him? Woolen cloth?"

This time it was Kobe who stood up to keep hope for the Lakers, and he hit a three-pointer again.In the last minute, Kobe became the savior of the Lakers. He scored 1 points in a row by himself, and he narrowed the gap for the Lakers time and time again.But he failed to help the Lakers overtake, there are 8 seconds left, and the player is still the Suns, it seems difficult for the Lakers to advance to the Western Conference Finals in Phoenix.
