NBA: Opening breaks record

Chapter 358

The Lakers led by 5 points, but they were not stable at all. The DJ on the scene tried his best to create an atmosphere, calling on the fans to cheer for the home team.

Most of the players, in the roaring tsunami, will be different from usual.

For the home team, this is a bonus, but for the visiting team, it is interference.

Even veteran Paul was distracted by the fans' sharp whistles.

Monty waved his hand and shouted loudly: "Go, go to fight, beat them to silence."

He was afraid that the players would not hear him, so he shouted very loudly.

At this time, the sound of the fans just stopped, and Monty's voice penetrated the half court and floated into the ears of the Lakers players, humiliating them wantonly.

Vogel sneered three times in a row: "Did you hear that, until we are silenced, no one is optimistic about us, and the opponent wants to trample on us wantonly. Paladins, let us fight for our dignity."

The fourth quarter of the decisive battle.

Both sides sent their main forces without reservation.

The Suns are only 5 points behind, and they still want to end the battle in 6 games.

The Lakers also want to enter the next round. They don't want to be finished in six games. They want to eliminate the Suns in the tiebreaker.

Westbrook served, James dribbled the ball halfway, and stopped with a step outside the three-point line.

Claude pointed behind him, if you have any kind, just throw it away.

James took a step across and tried to shoot a three-pointer directly after receiving the ball.

Swish!
The Nets splashed.

James yelled at Claude to cheer himself up.

He played very well in the first half, but only scored 2 points in the third quarter, and he made countless strikes.

He hopes the ball will open up his offense.

The point difference came to 8 points again. If the Suns miss the offense and the Lakers hit again, it can be pulled to 10 points.

10 points is a hurdle, especially in the fourth quarter when every second counts.

The strange thing is that Meng Hua, who confronted Paul, didn't fight at all, just strolling in the courtyard.

Meng Hua really didn't want to defend this round, at least he didn't want to defend to death.

When the score reaches 10 points, the Suns will definitely play small balls.

This kind of indiscriminate bombardment of three-pointers, no matter what team, it is absolutely unstoppable when it goes crazy.

Because not one, two, five people are shooting threes.

But if the score stays within 10 points, the Suns will definitely still play the regular game.

Meng Hua faintly felt that his teammates' morale had risen because of Monty's words, but he must not win too much before his teammates feel the shot.

The so-called putting it to death and then reviving it is not necessarily a good thing if the sun is pushed into a hurry.

Paul also felt that Meng Hua was a little strange. Normally, he would look like a mad dog at this meeting, but he was very relaxed at night.

Could it be that he was injured?

Paul looked at Meng Hua's ankle.

Yes, it must be so.

Paul was overjoyed. After calling the pick-and-roll, a lateral drift, Meng Hua was blocked by Ayton, and Paul made a jump shot and steadily received two points.

I'm not afraid of two points like you, you can't kill people.

Facing Paul's aggressive eyes, Meng Hua said silently in his heart.

Having played against each other many times, Paul already knew not to provoke Meng Hua with words, but he would still do it without speaking provocatively.

The next match between the two teams was exactly what Meng Hua wanted.

You enter one, and I also enter one.

If you strike iron, I will strike too.

The score has been maintained at 5-8 points.

As time went by, the faces of the Sun generals became more and more unsightly.

At this time, it is time for them to make a big move.

But there are 3 minutes left in the game, can you chase 8 points?

Meng Hua suddenly exerted strength and confronted Paul.

not hurt?

Persevere with injuries?

Paul's head is full of question marks, but no matter what Meng Hua does, he will go all out.

Ayton went down the pick-and-roll, and while the two were separated, Paul made a feint of hitting the ground to deceive everyone, but the ball passed to Booker who ran out of position on the other side.

Not only was the ball passed, but it was of very high quality.

Compared with the football field, the basketball field is relatively small, and many of them are short-distance passes, but the quality of the passes is still much worse.

The field is small, you can't make the next move after catching the ball, and the defensive players will keep up and lose the opportunity to score.

Booker can take off directly after catching the ball, and he does.

Rivers can only look at the ball and sigh, he has an ominous premonition.

The ball was getting closer and closer to the basket, and his omen finally became a reality.

The two teams tied for 25 in a single quarter.

In this quarter, the two sides still played very exciting, tit for tat.

To be on the safe side, Vogel requested a timeout to arrange the offensive tactics for the next round.

For Vogel, it's a blissful trouble right now.

On offense, he has many options to choose from.

Westbrook can break through the basket;

Thick eyebrows can play singles in the paint;
Monk, Rivers, and Meng Hua can play pick-and-roll with James;

Melon, who didn't play, played well on the offensive end before.

The Lakers' offense has never been powered off all season, what they lack is defense.

There are still several offenses, and our team leads by 5 points. No matter what tactics Vogel wants to play, no one will object at this moment.

Vogel estimated that after the Suns defended, they were ready to chase points in five minutes.So he arranged for thick eyebrows to hit the inside line. If he scored, it would put Monty in a dilemma.

The Lakers served, Westbrook dribbled the ball across half court, found the thick eyebrow, and pulled it to the weak side.

Inside duel.

The duel of champions.

This was supposed to be the main event, but no one seemed to want to watch it.

The back of the thick eyebrow leaned back slowly, trying to judge Ayton's position through contact.

Ayton played hide-and-seek with him, not confronting him, so that thick eyebrows could not feel his position.

The thick eyebrow simply hit blindly, and turned around and shot a jumper.

This was very sudden, and I was still immersed in my invisibility. You couldn't see Ayton in the game, and you were caught off guard, and your defense was broken in an instant.

What made Ayton even more depressed was that when it was his team's turn to attack, Monty replaced himself with Johnson.

Ayton sat down on the bench, took the towel handed by his teammates, covered his head, and didn't want to say a word.

Physically tired, but mentally even more tired.

I think I would not love anymore.

What kind of broken team is this, there is no chance to perform, and now they want to hold me down at a critical moment.

Don't strive for success, don't care about the status in the team, so many people in the same class are renewing their contracts with a maximum salary, why can't I?
If it weren't for the fear of hurting your peace, you don't want me, and there are a lot of teams queuing up to sign with me.

Ayton blamed himself and heard the cheers of his teammates. After all, he was on the same boat, so he hurriedly removed the towel.

I saw Johnson, who had just come on the field, was celebrating a goal. Judging from the shape of his hand, it was a three-pointer.

This made Ayton even more confused, and his confidence was a little shaken. Could it be that I really can't do it?

Johnson threw 3 points, and even if I scored, I usually only scored 2 points.

What Ayton didn't expect was that Johnson also got a chance to add a penalty and scored the ball.

One attack, recovering 4 points.

Ayton stopped complaining, thinking maybe Monty was right, but so what, the team didn't renew the labor contract, and I didn't want to play anymore.

Johnson scored 4 points in one attack, and the point difference became 3 points. The pressure was entirely on the Lakers.

They led the whole night, they won't be overturned at the last moment, right?
The more Vogel thought about it, the more afraid he became, so he called a timeout first.
