Chapter 681 The Last Attack

The competition between the two teams became more intense in the second quarter, and unlike the gradual improvement in the first quarter, the offensive efficiency of both sides in the second quarter became extremely high, with almost 70% of the field goals.

In the last 4.5 seconds before halftime, after Li Weisi successfully broke through, he immediately sent the ball to the bottom corner. Mullin made a false shot, sent Worthy flying, and made a mid-range buzzer shot.

So far, at halftime, the Warriors lead the Lakers by 61 point at 60:1.

Throughout the first half, the performance of the Lakers was extremely perfect. The performance of several core members was remarkable, especially Perkins. Thanks to his outstanding performance on the perimeter, the Warriors' defense became very passive. , It is difficult to restrict the Lakers.

I have to say that for tonight's game, the Lakers are better than the Warriors in terms of pre-game preparation.

Of course, even with sufficient preparations, the final result is still a tie between the two sides. It can be seen that it is not easy for the Lakers, who are now declining in strength, to win a victory. They need to pay more than the Warriors. effort.

This situation has already been shown in the second quarter. As the Warriors gradually enter the game state, the Lakers' offense must also become more efficient. They dare not have the slightest slack. They need to use all their strength to prevent the Warriors from pulling the score. open.

After a brief intermission, the second half started again.

Back in the game, the Warriors took the lead in attacking. After a simple pick-and-roll, Li Weisi found Richmond at 45 degrees. Richmond hit a three-pointer and continued to expand the score.

However, soon, when the Lakers were attacking, Scott, who performed relatively poorly in the first half, suddenly received a pass from Magic Johnson, and also responded with a three-pointer, reciprocating.

To be honest, the Lakers' performance tonight definitely exceeded the Warriors' imagination.

In the past, the Lakers' offense was more based on Johnson's organizational skills and the Lakers' strong impact, playing fast breaks to score.

However, this season, the Lakers have changed their strategy and increased their outside shots. Whether it is because of the addition of new players or the influence of the Warriors' playing style, in short, after tactical adjustments, the Lakers have indeed stabilized themselves. record.

In the process, the team's reliance on Scott and Perkins has become more and more obvious.

Otherwise, no matter how good the opportunity is created, it will be useless to miss the shot.

Looking back, Li Weisi fought back. Facing Scott's defense, he made a slight change of direction and a signature step-back shot, and also hit a three-pointer.

However, at this time, Scott's touch felt so hot that it was about to explode. After using the pick-and-roll to get rid of Li Weisi, he received a pass from the Magician and hit a three-pointer again.

Seeing Scott's sudden explosion and hitting three-pointers in a row, Li Weisi immediately got excited!
Isn't it just a three-pointer!I have never been afraid of anyone!
So, when it was the Warriors' turn to attack, Li Weisi dribbled the ball just after half court, pulled up and shot a super long three-pointer, which was also hit!

However, Scott's touch is really hot tonight. Facing Li Weisi's almost provocative ultra-long shot, he is not afraid at all. He also made another three-point shot at 45 degrees on the other side. This time, he still faced Li Weisi. cast under the circumstances.

The basketball went into the net hollow, and Scott hit 3 consecutive three-pointers, facing Li Weisi without losing the wind.

Except for the confrontation between the two, the third quarter was not just a one-man show between the two of them, the performances of the others were also excellent.

Especially Worthy and Magic Johnson, the two also ushered in simultaneous explosions in this quarter. Fortunately, on the Warriors side, Li Weisi is not alone. Although the performance of other players is not as explosive as them, they are also above standard. .

Therefore, the entire third quarter can be regarded as a fight between gods and gods.

However, on the whole, the Lakers had a slight upper hand. When the third quarter ended, the Lakers not only withstood the pressure of the Warriors, but also successfully overtook the score. The Warriors 93:96, 3 points behind the Lakers.

Of course, the difference of 3 points is not much, but even if it is 1 point, it is still behind, and at the end of the game, it will be a failure.

Therefore, after entering the fourth quarter, the Warriors' bench once again showed the strength to crush the Lakers' bench.

Starks, who erupted for a while in the second quarter, has been silent at this time, but fortunately, others have stepped forward at this time. Curry, Brian Shaw and Divac all hit shots. For the mixed lineup of the Lakers, there is no downside.

This is the predicament of the Lakers when facing the Warriors. They know that extending the playing time of the starters will put the Lakers at a disadvantage in the decisive stage of the fourth quarter, but they have to do so, otherwise, they may all be at a disadvantage. Without the decisive battle stage, the game will end early.

Time is being consumed bit by bit, and the game has entered the final stage unknowingly. At this time, the score on the field is 124:122, and the Lakers temporarily lead by 2 points.

Fortunately, the ball is in the hands of the Warriors at this time.

After Mullin and Ma Long completed the pick-and-roll, they distributed the ball to Li Weisi who went down the middle.

As long as Li Weisi doesn't have the ball in his hand, he will often run without the ball, and this time, he is relying on the opportunity to run without the ball.

With no one to defend, Li Weisi, who received the ball, started it immediately after only one dribble. Caught off guard, Perkins could only jump hastily to block Li Weisi.

In the air, Li Weisi did not take the first shot, but made a pull bar, which not only avoided Perkins' block, but also caused Perkins' foul.

The basketball was thrown up by Li Weisi from the other side of the basket, hit the backboard, bounced into the basket, scored 2 points, and added a penalty.

This crucial goal not only tied the score, but with Li Weisi's free throw, the Warriors completed the overtake.

However, the Lakers did not give up. With 7.6 seconds left before the end of the game, Worthy hit a mid-range jumper and completed the overtake again.

With only one point behind, there was more than enough time, so no one in the Lakers dared to take it lightly, and they couldn't pay more attention to Li Weisi.

Back from the timeout, the Warriors served the ball. Li Weisi was heavily defended, and Rodman couldn't pass the ball to him at all.

So Rodman had to pass the ball to Richmond.

After receiving the ball, Richmond still wanted to find Li Weisi immediately, but he was not close to Richmond at all, and the time was passing by bit by bit.

Can't wait any longer!
In just a split second, Richmond immediately made a judgment.

So in the face of Johnson's defense, Richmond immediately chose to break through, forcing a breakthrough with speed.

The magicians defending him were overjoyed. This was exactly what they wanted most. Li Weisi was not allowed to get the ball, and others were allowed to execute the final attack.
