Chapter 112 Draw
In the second game of the finals, the Lakers could not retreat. The situation was somewhat similar to the 2001 finals between the Lakers and the 76ers. The invincible Lakers were first defeated by their opponents and then counterattacked. Will history repeat itself?Will the Lakers easily reverse the Pistons again like they reversed the 76ers?
Most players who know football don't think so.

ESPN's Stephen A. Smith expressed his opinion on this, saying that the Pistons will bring huge troubles to the Lakers. The Lakers are no longer the team full of passion and talent when they first won the championship. The OK combination is no longer united. Karl Malone The weaknesses of Gary Payton and Gary Payton in the finals were fully demonstrated, and the substitutes were unable to do their best. The only one, Sun Zhuo, was quite satisfactory, but Sun Zhuo's more than ten points per game would definitely not be able to influence the game.

In the previous life, the Lakers won the second game, but it was very difficult to win.

With only 7 seconds left in the fourth quarter, the Lakers were still 3 points behind the Pistons. On the last attack, Kobe stepped up to save the team, hit a life-saving three-pointer, dragged the game into overtime, and then narrowly won played a game.

That was also the only game the Lakers won in the finals. If Kobe was not so lucky and missed that shot, then the powerful F4 Lakers back then would have been swept out by this civilian Pistons!

"The second game is not easy. We must try our best to win. Once we lose this round, I'm afraid I will have to use the repeated challenge card in this round." Sun Zhuo also changed when he thought of the possibility of using the repeated challenge card. Gotta get serious.

The five Pistons came to the field again. The faces of Ben Wallace, Rasheed Wallace, Hamilton and others showed the confidence that was not shown in the first game. After winning a game, they are not afraid of the Lakers. What? The Big Five are nothing more than that!
The Lakers still played around O'Neal at the beginning, and O'Neal's fiery state remained undiminished, and the goals that should be scored must be put in. He knew that Kobe was competing with him for this year's FMVP, so the offensive end would only work harder.

O'Neal and Kobe cannot be completely restrained by any team. The Lakers lost to others in the last game, especially in the bench lineup, so the performance of the Lakers' bench today is very important.

Luke Walton was entrusted with an important task today, and his father, Bill Walton, also came to the scene, looking forward to his son's performance in the finals, and Luke Walton did not disappoint his father.

Luke Walton's performance on the court is amazing. He hits the shot without missing a single shot, and he can break through and create opportunities to feed the ball inside. The Lakers have never seen him perform so well before.

In fact, Luke Walton performed very well in this game in his previous life, 5 of 5, and 8 assists. It is the same today. Sun Zhuo, who is also a rookie, can have good statistics in every game. How can Luke Walton Can you still stay in the novice stage?
Because of Sun Zhuo's encouragement, Luke Wharton has also made great progress this year.

"This guy Luke Walton has a tendency to start with me first!" Because Luke Walton played very well on the court, Sun Zhuo's playing time was delayed and reduced. Sun Zhuo naturally didn't mind, but he said casually joke.

Phil Jackson was also very happy, smiled, and said: "Sun, this is your credit. Bill Walton once told me that Luke has always regarded you as a goal. The success of your rookie season gave him a lot of motivation. Luke Ke has been working hard and today is the result of his hard work."

Sun Zhuo didn't expect that he would join the Lakers and also drive the growth of rookie Luke Walton, which is considered a good deed.

However, no matter how well Luke Wharton plays, he can't replace Sun Zhuo. Sun Zhuo's single-corner three-point threat is something Wharton can't compare to. As long as Sun Zhuo is on the court and walks around the corner, The defensive player must keep an eye on Sun Zhuo at all times, and cannot rush to support other players defending the Lakers. In addition, once a successful breakthrough, Sun Zhuo can directly dunk on the double Wallace's head, while Luke Walton Just choose to pass the ball.

Luke Walton's outstanding performance allowed the Lakers to lead the Pistons by some points. After Sun Zhuo came back, he also hit a corner three-pointer and continued to expand the score.

But the Pistons are the Pistons, they are too tenacious, and soon Billups scored two three-pointers in a row, and once again put out iron and blood defense to make the score close again.

"Billups is really a troublesome person. If you want to win the championship, you must successfully contain him." Sun Zhuo forgot the exact number of Billups' average statistics in the finals that year, and it seems that he scored in his early 20s. Look, but Sun Zhuo remembers that each of the Pistons' five tigers averaged double figures per game. Among them, Billups, as the team's point guard, made a great contribution. Only a good enough point guard can make the ball The team played so well as a whole and so balanced.

Phil Jackson gave Sun Zhuo more control over the ball in the finals, and Sun Zhuo felt that he should learn from this point guard.

Sun Zhuo will remember every pass and every assist of Billups, trying to read Billups' thoughts, so that if he really needs to do it again today, Sun Zhuo can cut off Billups and his teammates, easily win.

Fortunately, the Lakers are very strong, especially Kobe, who had a big explosion in the fourth quarter, scored 33 points, and won the victory with a slight advantage of 5 points.

The Lakers and Pistons tied 1:1. This time, there was no overtime.

After winning the game, Kobe yelled excitedly. It was not easy to win this game, but he did it, and scored the highest score in the game. In addition to the 25 points in the previous game, Kobe now leads the Lakers in points per game. The tallest player, he already has an advantage over O'Neal in the FMVP competition.

O'Neal was also very happy to win this game, but he was not as excited as Kobe. He scored 28 points in this game and averaged points per game. Currently, Kobe is a little ahead. O'Neal knows that in the next few games, Kobe Will try to outrun him too.

Sun Zhuo breathed a sigh of relief. Finally, he didn't need to use repeated challenge cards at home. Even though he was robbed of some playing time by Luke Walton today, he made a lot of three-pointers and scored 16 points.

Judging from the data of Sun Zhuo in the current two games, there is indeed no threat to O'Neal and Kobe.

After the game, O'Neill took the initiative to go home with Sun Zhuo, with the excuse that he wanted to meet Sun Zhuo's beautiful manager with a proud figure, but when he came to Sun Zhuo's house, O'Neill did not ask Sun Zhuo to call Emma over. O'Neill is here for other purposes.

"Sun, I feel something bad is about to happen." In Sun Zhuo's home, the two were eating steak, and O'Neill suddenly said with a serious expression.

"What's the matter?" Sun Zhuo looked at O'Neill.

"That black mamba is coming to snatch my FMVP!" O'Neill's face showed fear, as if he really saw a snake attacking him.
