NBA: Since James left the Cavaliers

Chapter 130 Two fists are invincible to four hands

At the beginning of the fourth quarter, the Lakers replaced the four main players except Kobe.

Phil Jackson's intention is very obvious, let the four of them get a certain period of rest, and then when the timing will reappear, and the Cavaliers will fight to the death.

The same is true for the Cavaliers. Long Rui still stayed on the court, obviously ready to play the whole game.

Paul George, Jeremy Lin and others were replaced again.

It is worth mentioning that Paul George is the best Cavaliers player in this game except for Long Rui.

In the limited playing time, he played extremely high scoring efficiency.

So far, he has personally scored 13 points, which is one point higher than Curry.

"Dudu!"

The referee blew his whistle, players from both sides appeared on the field, and the final quarter of the game officially started.

The Lakers hit the baseline, and Kobe takes it downfield.

At this moment, the Lakers were four points behind their opponents. For Kobe, there was naturally a certain amount of pressure. After all, he didn't want to lose to Long Rui again.

However, Kobe, who is used to seeing strong winds and waves, appeared very calm when faced with such a situation, without any panic at all.

In order to save his energy, he started to cooperate with his teammates.

Shannon Brown on the left finds a chance to cut inside, and Kobe sends the ball to him with a very clever touch pass.

Shannon Brown, who charged at full speed, immediately jumped up with both feet after receiving the ball, completing a dunk!
This dunk, whether in terms of the height of the jump or the strength of the dunk, is perfect!
Shannon Brown is a player who has won the slam dunk title. One can imagine his slam dunks!

Throughout the Staples Center, the Lakers fans began to shout, cheering for the home team in their own way!
This is actually the biggest difference between home and away games. In many cases, these off-court factors can often affect the mentality of the opponent's players, which leads to ups and downs in state.

The lead of the Cavaliers is very weak. After this goal is scored, the Lakers can tie the score with only one defense and one attack.

As the leader of the Cavaliers, Long Rui would not allow this kind of thing to happen.

At this moment, when the Lakers are at their weakest, he must seize the opportunity to lead the Cavaliers to further expand the point difference!
"George, Jeremy, speed up the offensive rhythm."

Long Rui gave instructions to the two of them, and then quickly advanced to the frontcourt with the ball.

In the inside line, JJ-Hickson immediately stepped up to cover Long Rui, but he just blocked it a little, and he immediately went down.

The Lakers adopted a man-to-man defense strategy, and the player responsible for defending Hickson also retreated in a hurry.

The pick-and-roll cooperation this time seems to have failed, but in fact it is just a strategy of swindling the east and the west!

Hickson's cutting ability is very good, and in the same position, his speed is very agile.

Between this in and out, the opponent's defender was not able to keep up with his footsteps very well.

Therefore, another player is needed to come to make a supplementary defense. In this way, an empty space will inevitably be formed on the court.

Long Rui saw the opportunity and threw the ball out of his hand, giving it to Paul George who just inserted into his heart.

After the latter received the ball, Shannon Brown, who was in charge of guarding Jeremy Lin at the bottom corner, rushed towards the basket in a hurry.

Seeing this, Paul George made a fake throw and a real pass, and after flying Brown, he handed the ball to Jeremy Lin who was wide open in the bottom corner.

After Jeremy Lin received the ball, he was relentless and immediately raised his sword and hit a three-pointer from the bottom corner!

The Cavaliers' offensive rhythm was very fast, which caught the Lakers a little off guard and directly disrupted their defensive formation.

On the sidelines, Phil Jackson frowned. He also felt the difficulty of the Cavaliers, but now he can only look at Kobe's state.

Among the unknown players on the Lakers, only Kobe has a stable scoring ability.

Although Shannon Brown has occasionally performed well, he is not consistent enough after all.

Including the 'veteran rookie' Barnes and others, none of them have a particularly strong scoring ability. It depends on whether Kobe can survive this stage.

"Kobe! Kobe!"

The audience, almost all the fans, shouted Kobe's name again, looking forward to his superb performance.

'Black Mamba' Bryant did not let them down. He once again ushered in an explosion of personal ability when the team faced a very unfavorable situation.

Facing Long Rui's defense, he first made a forcible shot and hit a mid-range fadeaway jumper. After completing a steal on the defensive end, he broke into a fast break again!

In less than 30 seconds, he scored four points in a row, reducing the difference between the two teams to only one point.

Seeing that Kobe wanted to lead the team, Long Rui would not let him succeed easily.

He broke through Kobe's defense, went inside, and caused a shooting foul.

Long Rui stood on the free throw line and made the first free throw steadily, but the second free throw was a little lighter, and the basketball popped out at the front.

Just when the players under the blue were about to grab the rebound, Long Rui rushed directly to the basket, jumped high and completed the dunk!
After playing a different three-pointer this time, the point difference was opened up a little bit.

As everyone knows, after this goal, the Lakers' nightmare began.

After Kobe's jump shot hit the iron, the Cavaliers suddenly found a sense on the offensive end.

Paul George and Long Rui led a 3:9 offensive climax in just 0 minutes, opening the point difference to double digits in one fell swoop.

During this period, Kobe could only rely on his own ability to score intermittently.

But two fists are no match for four hands, and the combination of Long Rui and George is like a sharp knife that will never stop, piercing each other's vitals!
Seeing that the situation was not good, Phil Jackson immediately called a timeout. After this timeout, the Lakers will replace all their main players.

The same is true for the Cavaliers. Coach Scott retained Long Rui and the well-formed Paul George.

Put on Curry, Yi Jianlian and Varejao, planning to enter the decisive battle at the last moment.

"Who would have thought that this game would go to this level."

"The three-game Cavaliers, in a state of exhaustion, can still push the full-state Lakers to this point!"

"Now there are more than eight minutes left in the fourth quarter, and the Cavaliers lead by 11 points."

"This point difference is not big, but it is not small."

"From the perspective of time, it is completely enough, but it depends on the state of the Lakers on both offense and defense."

"The worst news is that the Cavaliers are now fully up and recovering."

"What's even more frightening is that the Cavaliers have never lost a game after leading into the fourth quarter."

"I don't know if the Lakers can break this law!"
