Chapter 233 In the worst case, there is still him

Lin Ri took the ball and turned forward, easily throwing Pau Gasol behind him.

Pau Gasol is one of the best four positions in the league, and he can also be regarded as the second leader of the top team among the four positions.

If you have to talk about his problem... his lateral speed after leaving the basket is a bit slow.

Lin Ri also gradually discovered this point in his contact with Pau Gasol, which is why he will frequently catch the ball near the high position in this game.

When he's standing near the high post, he just needs a quick turn next to Pau Gasol to easily get rid of the latter.

"Bah!"

Then easily complete the dunk under the basket!

The Suns started the second half very smoothly.

The Lakers also seemed to change their tactics in the second half. In addition to allowing the Lakers to recover some physical fitness during the intermission, Kobe calmed down a lot. After calming down, Kobe began to look for ways to help the team better... In the second quarter of the first half, he has been fighting alone, but judging from the results, he did not help the team.

Since doing so can't help the team, Kobe will naturally make some changes!
Speaking of which, this is the biggest change that Kobe has made since the arrival of Pau Gasol. He finally waited for someone he recognized. Even in the current situation, he is willing to give the person he recognized some patience and see if he can find another way to make the Lakers better...

After changing his tactics, Kobe's position in the team is more of the person who restrains the Suns' defense.

The ball was handed over to Pau Gasol immediately.

Pau Gasol did not have any positive effect on the defensive end today.

But he didn't lose his confidence.

At the moment when he held the ball with both hands, he first turned his head and glanced at Lin Ri behind him. After observing Lin Ri's defensive posture for a while, he directly dribbled the ball towards the inside and killed.

Pau Gasol's explosive power is not good. During the whole process of his killing inside, he couldn't get rid of Lin Ri at all, so he was supported by Lin Ri, his feet were like stepping on stilts... he could only kill towards the inside like this.

The Lakers fans who watched this scene were worried, and the look of staring at Pau Gasol almost shouted: It's really not possible, let's not force it like this!

Lin Ri was "riding" against Pau Gasol in various ways. Although the picture was not good-looking, but considering Pau Gasol's style of play, they never thought that Pau Gasol could respond back!

Hmm... that's really unrealistic...

But Pau Gasol was so wobbly and finally got into the inside, but he "oiled the soles of his feet", turned around suddenly, and turned to the other side. At the same time, he held the ball with both hands and threw it in that direction.

There Artest just walked from the baseline to the other side. After receiving the ball from Pau Gasol, he didn't react immediately, but muscle memory helped him successfully complete the layup.

"Shh!"

Go in!

There was a lot of cheers at the scene.

In the second quarter of the game, the Lakers rarely responded to the Suns offense so smoothly.

"Pau Gasol's coping ability is really amazing. It may be a wonderful goal for other inside players, but for Pau Gasol, this is his usual style of play!" Hubie praised Pau Gasol's assist.

No wonder, as you can see from the screen playback, it's really smooth!
Soon, though, Hubie realized he had said the wrong thing.

After Lin Ri assisted Ariza to complete an outside three-pointer, he realized that Lin Ri is also a good inside supporter at the Pau Gasol level!
He is "his successor" recognized by even Chris Webber!
His pass to Ariza's goal, judging from the playback screen, is really no worse than Paul Gasol's goal just now!

"How can he know everything!"

The Lakers fans on the sidelines were a little bit shocked, and muttered something in their mouths.

He just felt that Pau Gasol's skill was beyond Lin Ri's, and immediately Lin Ri gave him a resounding "slap".

There is no such thing as this guy!
Truly an all-around inside player...

Still only 20 years old... How great it would be if he were a player for the Lakers!

Some Lakers fans with "excellent traditions" suddenly had some inappropriate thoughts at this time...

Pau Gasol on the field didn't know what some Lakers fans thought off the field. The Lakers' goal just now proved that it was completely correct for him to hold the ball and distribute the ball.

So he got the ball again on the next possession.

The organization was good last time, which made Pau Gasol much more confident when he took the ball this time than before. He directly took the ball and turned around to observe the direction of his teammates and the direction of the Suns.

After a simple observation, he made a fake move forward, and then quickly turned into an underhand pass, successfully giving the ball to Kobe who was running.

Lin Ri was shaken by his breakthrough, and subconsciously took a step back, but got closer to Kobe by accident.

These two people faced each other while they were both running!

The scene was quiet for a while, and the fans watching in front of the TV were also paying attention.

come on!

Kobe didn't give in, he dribbled the ball to kill, and at the same time there was a hint of determination on his face, which means "it doesn't matter if the person following him is Lin Ri, he just wants to kill inside"!
Seeing that he was so determined, Lin Ri didn't hesitate, and stuck to him tightly, giving him a huge obstacle from the moment he dribbled towards the inside.

But what he didn't expect was that Kobe, who rushed into the inside, suddenly jumped up early under the basket, and instead of looking at the basket, he looked at the free throw line.

There Pau Gasol rushed towards the inside.

This is the classic connection between Kobe and Pau Gasol.

"coming!"

Hubie yelled!
He felt that a wonderful picture was about to appear.

The hero is... Pau Gasol.

Pau Gasol got the ball smoothly, he entered the inside in two big strides, and he was about to dunk with his open hand.

Just now Lin Ri has been entangled with Kobe, and when Kobe took off, he even jumped up.

this is a good chance!

A good opportunity for him to wash away his shame!

Do you know how long I waited for this opportunity?

I waited for three full quarters!
During these three quarters, you bullied me in every way!

just now!

Just pay me back... ok... ok... Well, do you believe I said I was joking?

Pau Gasol opened his hand and was about to split the dunk.

But he found that Lin Ri, who jumped up with Kobe, jumped up quickly again after landing, and jumped up at a very fast speed, even when he entered the inside line and jumped high, the latter's hand was already higher than his hand.

"Snapped!"

Pau Gasol watched Lin Ri's second take-off of "not talking about martial arts", his mind went blank, but the huge resistance on the ball, and his involuntary backward body made him understand... He seemed to be humiliated again!
Hey!
Give you a chance, you are useless!
This is the first thought of most Lakers fans after seeing Lin Ri "covering" Paul Gasol.

What a great opportunity at that time, you didn't show off your one-handed dunk, and it was a little elegant. At this time, it would be great for you to lay up directly. At that time, no matter how much Lin Ri could jump, he could only watch you score the ball.

Hey!
Hey!
Hey!
Really are!
There was a lot of sighs in the Lakers scene.

While they sighed, everyone on the Sun team immediately became excited.

Lin Ri's hat made everyone in the Suns team excited, both on and off the court.

It's so cool!

It looks so cool!

Excited people roared like wild beasts and headed towards the Lakers penalty area.

It was so easy to score in a fast break!

The Suns' leading advantage began to lean towards the 15-point difference.

"Come on, guys, defend quickly, defend quickly, defend this round, score in the next round, we will lead to 15 points!"

Gentry quickly clapped his hands and yelled from the sidelines. The climax of the third quarter came much faster than he expected. He had a lot to say, but he couldn't call a timeout at this time, so he could only shout like this from the sidelines.

The next round is extremely critical. If he can score, then in Gentry's opinion, he is at least 7% sure that the game is stable!
The Lakers didn't call a timeout either.

The time when Phil Jackson called a timeout was always inexplicable, including this game. Even though the Lakers obviously had some momentum problems after the ball, he still put his hands in his pockets, with a calm expression on his face, as if nothing happened!
Looking at the entire league, there is only this head coach who can still be so calm when the team is nearly 15 points behind!

If this is Popovich, I'm afraid it will be called a timeout. If this is Sloan, I'm afraid it will be scolded directly!

However, this "brother" is still the head coach with the most championship rings in NBA history!
You say, is this annoying?
The atmosphere on the Lakers team was a bit wrong. Off the court, the head coach didn't mean to call a timeout. In the end, everyone looked at each other and gave the ball to Kobe.

At this time, the only option is to give the ball to this "father"!

Of course, at this time, even if you don't give him the ball, he will ask you for it. This is his awareness as the leader of the Lakers!
The most responsible guy in this league!
"Black Mamba" held the ball, and Gentry's expression suddenly became serious.

No matter what the situation is on the court, as long as this guy has the ball, anything can happen. Anyway, Gentry's "fear" of Kobe will always exist.

In this league, the "older" people know how "poisonous" this "Black Mamba" is!
Bryant takes the ball from beyond the three-point line, pacing slowly.

He didn't look very anxious.

In the current situation, he knows very well that if he is in a hurry, then the Lakers will have nothing to do in this game, and they can just surrender.

However, although his expression was not in a hurry, his eyes were always observing the Suns' defense, and then he broke through and started. A fake action of pausing near the free throw line forced the Suns to stop the person who was about to intercept him.

Finished the layup easily.

I'm sorry!

The game has just begun!

Kobe turned his head and glanced at Lin Ri, with a strong desire to fight in his eyes.

It's not that easy to take away the victory from the Staples Center!

Lin Ri felt the desire to fight in Kobe's eyes, and his relaxed expression suddenly became serious again.

It can be seen from the determination of Kobe's ball that this game is still a while away from determining the outcome.

Play hard!

When Steve Nash came to the frontcourt this time, Lin Ri went to give a pick-and-roll, and while Steve Nash used his cover to kill in, he also followed.

Both of them quickly stood in their most threatening positions.

The Lakers' defensive formation was instantly cut!
Steve Nash saw this opportunity and passed the ball to Lin Ri who followed up.

Watching the ball hit the ground and bounce in Lin Ri's direction, as long as Lin Ri catches it, a classic cooperation between Lin Ri and Steve Nash is about to be completed.

"Snapped!"

But before Lin Ri reached out to catch the ball, a black shadow suddenly popped up and intercepted the ball ahead of time.

It's No. 24 for the Lakers!
"Black Mamba" predicted the cooperation between Steve Nash and Lin Ri and successfully completed the steal.

With the ball in his hand, Kobe didn't hesitate at all, and drove to the inside of the Suns to kill the past.

"Bah!"

Kobe's explosive power is fully displayed on this ball.

Of course, Kobe's fighting spirit and his ability to fight back in a difficult game are more displayed in this ball!

"Kobe is Kobe!"

"Maybe that's why he's so awesome!"

"In the critical moment of the game, you can always trust Kobe!"

In front of the TV and on the Internet, many fans were surprised by Kobe's focus on the offensive and defensive ends of this round.

Phil Jackson also showed a few inscrutable smiles at this time, looking like he knew Kobe could perform like this for a long time.

Actually... Although Phil Jackson would not have guessed that Kobe could play such an offensive and defensive performance in this round.

But he knew that Kobe would definitely think about doing something at this time. A player like him was born for such a moment!
Phil Jackson also considered that Kobe was still on the field, so he didn't call a timeout just now.

Now Kobe has also proved that the worst situation will not happen with him on the court!
This guy is the patron saint of Los Angeles!
The score difference returned to about 10 points, and the situation eased a lot all of a sudden.

However, the look on Bryant's face did not change.

He still looked at everyone in the Suns with "full of fighting spirit".
