The Clippers were led by Paul, plus Crawford, Mbah a Moute, Jeff Green and Bai Ade.The Lakers are led by Aldridge, with Gasol, Deron, Joe Johnson and Nick Young.

The gap between the two sides was really not that big, and the score rose alternately. With three or four minutes left, the starters of both sides gradually came into play.

Tonight, Gatsby and James seem to be pressing and playing, trying to create opportunities for other teammates. The game is very anxious. Both Gatsby and James know that the game will not end so soon, and they have to keep their cards Waiting for the key to be opened.

After the third quarter, the scores of the two sides have not yet been opened, and the scores of both sides have broken 120. It is conceivable that by the end of the fourth quarter, the scores of both sides must be at least [-] points or more.

Most of the fans in China come for Gatsby. Because of Gatsby’s rise and nearly seven years of hard work, China has become Gatsby’s home base.

Coupled with the rapid development of China's economy and the great development of various undertakings, the self-confidence of the Chinese people has been greatly improved, which makes their recognition of Gatsby even higher.

This time, Gatsby reemerged after being silent for a season, relying on the Lakers as a team. The Lakers have a good foundation in China, and the combination with Gatsby is a match made in heaven. The call for the Lakers championship is the highest in China. Yes, and the popularity of the Rockets in China has dropped a lot, not as popular as the Knicks.

The Rockets missed the playoffs this season. As the general manager of the Rockets, Morey was scolded bloody by many Rockets fans. Cibi, just one player, pick whoever is inflated, stare at whoever is pregnant, just you mess around with a few statistics, and get the team out of the playoffs-speak, Morey stepped down!
At the beginning of the fourth quarter, the intensity of both sides has improved to varying degrees, but the score is still very anxious, rising alternately, James and Gatsby also began to take over the game.

Coach Rivers and Coach Jim Iron both seemed nervous, and both sides were very wary of each other. Entering the fourth quarter, both coaches reacted very loudly, and personnel adjustments became frequent, and timeouts also increased. , Sometimes it will be called once in a few rounds, blowing the game to pieces.

The anger among the players is also gradually rising. Griffin and Aldridge almost got into a fight. Paul also compared a black elbow to Gates. Fortunately, it was only from the elbow to the abdomen.

The referee began to control the situation and made the game even more fragmented. The Lakers referee on the scene was very dissatisfied and began to curse the referee, making the referee more and more nervous.

Clippers possession.

Paul carefully protected the ball, Jordan made a screen in the past, Gatsby squeezed to keep up with Paul, James cut outside to catch the ball, and after receiving the ball, he broke through the air and folded in the air to avoid Aldridge's blocked shot and made a layup. A foul was committed and an additional penalty was hit.

Gatsby pushed the ball into the frontcourt, and James ran up to defend. Gatsby and James were old rivals. Seeing James' move, Gatsby knew the Clippers' plan. This was to restrict him defensively. Hurry up. The person in the boat who was most likely to restrict Gatsby was James. Gatsby was quite surprised that James waited until now to defend him.

Probably... I was afraid.

Gatsby waved his hands to let his teammates pull away. He will not avoid Durant, and he will not avoid James. Tonight is the first game, and the series is still very long. Defeat the opponent at the strongest place , can frustrate opponents, and Gatsby never shows mercy!

James rushed up to confront Gatsby physically. Gatsby succeeded in losing weight. His body lost a lot of weight, but his strength was still there, but he suffered a loss in terms of tonnage. But what Gatsby now relies on is not the tonnage of the body, but the speed. As soon as James rushed, Gatsby changed direction and rushed over, James quickly followed behind, ready to nail the big cap.

Gatsby dribbled in, and before the three-step start, there was a sudden stop. James' huge size couldn't make an emergency stop, and he hit Gatsby directly. Gatsby was knocked out, and his body lost his balance. Before, Gatsby threw the ball into the basket and it went in!

"Beep!" The referee's whistle sounded, the goal was valid, and an additional penalty was required!
