Chapter 256 Critical moment!

In this way, the fourth quarter turned into a meat grinder game. The two teams only scored a few points in the muscle against muscle. Sometimes they even failed to score in several rounds. The score on the court rose very quickly. Slow, there is no sense of offensive smoothness like the first quarter!
Although the offense on the field was not very good-looking, the audience also left the field. After all, at this critical moment, which team has the stronger willpower, whoever is stronger will be able to win the final victory!

Halfway through the fourth quarter, the head coaches of the two sides replaced their substitutes at the same time, allowing their main players to rest for a while. After all, it is time to really decide the outcome. Now they should be allowed to accumulate energy. You can't overdraw your physical strength at the beginning of the fourth quarter, and you can only be beaten passively in the end!

The substitute game of the two teams is better than when the main players are on the court. After all, the substitute is to grab points. Of course, they are not so keen on defense. The head coaches of the two teams also know that the scene is a bit dry, and they can play better when they are on the bench. !
Just after the game, the Lakers also pulled back a little point difference, from 7 points behind in the third quarter to only 2 points behind now, and it only takes two rounds to catch up!This is thanks to Odom's contribution. After He Yiming and Kobe were strictly guarded, and Luke Walton didn't feel much, Odom, who had been silent for a long time, stood up. Odom swept the first place. The bad touch at the end of the third quarter first hit a three-pointer. Although the Spurs then returned a two-pointer, the Lakers also recovered a point after all!Next, Odom hit a mid-range shot again and got back two points!In the next game, the Spurs also noticed Odom, and Odom will also play his reputation as a left-handed magician. First, he assisted Kobe to hit a mid-range shot, and then passed the inside pass to He Yiming. buckle!
However, the Lakers' offense opened up a bit, and the Spurs did not take too much ground. The Lakers' physical strength dropped little by little, and the Spurs' defensive strength also decreased a lot, which made the Spurs' tactics again. It worked, although it only worked a little bit, but it still stretched the space and found a lot of offensive positions for the Spurs players!

The two teams raced against the clock and wanted to open the score, but the Lakers' interior was also a little disturbed. In the second quarter, the defensive tactics of the Spurs' substitutes made it a bit difficult for them to crack. Now the Spurs' substitutes Put on such a posture again!The offense of the Lakers' bench is also subject to a little fluctuation!
Although it was only a little fluctuation, it also limited the Lakers' idea of ​​​​taking the score closer. By the last 4 minutes of the fourth quarter, the Lakers could barely tie the score!
At this time, there was a dead ball opportunity, and Popovich and Zen master also took advantage of this time to replace their main players!As soon as the main force enters the field, it shows that the time for the real decisive battle has come!
Since it was the Spurs dead ball just now, this ball belongs to the Lakers!Now that the scores of the two teams have returned to the same starting line again, the morale of the Lakers is also slowly rising!

Kobe took possession of the ball and came to the frontcourt. He Yiming didn't go out to pick and roll for him this time, but Kwame Brown went out and set a screen for Odom. Kobe gave the ball to Odom!The Lakers actually handed over the ball to Odom. At this time, He Yiming was dispatched. Just after Kwame Brown made an off-ball screen for Odom, he also returned to the inside!With Kwame Brown inside, He Yiming can go out with confidence!
He Yiming came to the high position and made a cover for Odom, and then the two directly entered the inside line of the Spurs. That's right, the routine of He Yiming and Kobe was used on Odom now!In fact, this tactic Zen master has also been trained. After all, the Lakers only He Yiming, Kobe and Odom can play it now. This tactic has not been used much because Odom is usually not online!At this time, Kobe also slowly moved to the outside line!
Odom is still hitting the inside, and He Yiming is also on another road to the Spurs' inside!Both He Yiming and Odom have received the attention of all the Spurs!At this time, Odom glanced at He Yiming, and suddenly one part of the Spurs ran out to defend He Yiming, and another part was still defending Odom!
At this time, Odom's action directly bluffed everyone in the Spurs. Odom actually played tricks at this time, dribbling through the crotch, shaking Elson who was defending him !Then Odom was about to make a layup. At this time Duncan jumped up and wanted to block him, but Odom had already seen Duncan!
Duncan originally wanted to block Odom, but he found that Odom has no ball in his hands now!Where does that ball go?At this time, Kobe received a pass from Odom, and he opened his hand to make a three-pointer!
The ball was hit all the time, and the Lakers finally overtook the score at the end of the fourth quarter!Now the Lakers lead the Spurs by 3 points!The score of the two teams also came to 87:84!This may be the lowest score since the Lakers and Spurs Western Conference Finals series!Seeing that the Lakers' momentum was about to rise, Popovich hurriedly used up one of his only two remaining timeouts!
The timeout ended, and the Spurs launched an attack again. This time, the Spurs changed again!Their running position was from the inside to the outside, and the Lakers also entangled them desperately. At this time, Tony Parker directly threw the ball to someone who didn't expect it, the insider Elson!He Yiming and Kwame Brown have been paying attention to Duncan and the Spurs' outside personnel. Now that Elson has the ball, they are also in a hurry!Although I don't know what Elson's ability is, after all, Elson has been playing soy sauce in these games, but since Popovich gave him the ball this round, there must be something about him that the Lakers have never played. knew!

Sure enough, Elson got the ball, and without a word, he made a mid-range shot, and this time he actually got it!Elson actually made a mid-range shot. You must know that in the previous game, Elson has always shot from the inside and never shot from the outside. Now He Yiming and the others know that Elson actually has a mid-range shot!No wonder Popovich dared to give him the ball, no wonder the Spurs would arrange for him to be the main force!At this critical moment, the Spurs scored two points again, and the score difference between the two teams was only 1 point! 87:86!
