The world's best combo guard

Chapter 204 201 [Natural Enemies of Professional Players]

Everyone's attention was focused on Li Hao's beautiful chasing cap just now, so that almost everyone ignored the James who was blocked by Li Hao and fell to the ground.

And at this time, when everyone saw the Cavaliers around the basket on the field, they finally realized what, why hasn't James got up yet?what happened?Could it be?

Some people had a "click" in their hearts, especially the home fans. At this time, worried expressions suddenly appeared on their faces.

"Oh, LeBron is down, God, is he hurt?"

The entire arena was in a hustle and bustle at this time, and many people were talking about it, watching James surrounded by the Cavaliers.

Li Hao also stopped celebrating at this time, and shifted his gaze to James.

In the next second, Li Hao's complexion changed a bit, because he could clearly see James lying on the floor, showing a very painful expression at this time.

In an instant, Li Hao knew what had happened. As a professional player, he understood very well that this painful expression would only show up after being injured, and judging by the situation, it seemed to be very serious.

The Cavaliers team doctor Jess quickly rushed to James, and then bent down. When he saw James on the ground holding his right knee with both hands, his cold sweat began to break out, and a bad premonition suddenly emerged.

"LeBron, how are you feeling? Let me see..."

.........

Two minutes later, with the support of two Cavaliers players, a frustrated James walked to the locker room, leaving behind a lonely figure.

At this time, the entire Quicken Loans Arena fell into complete silence, and the atmosphere on the scene was instantly filled with seriousness.

In the stands, many home fans, especially the female fans, also shed sad tears when they watched the back of James who limped and left the field.

On the Cavaliers' bench, head coach Mike Brown, as the team's head coach, also became very frustrated at this time. He just pursed his lips and looked in a daze with an extremely serious expression.

And Li Hao, at this time, was not excited at all. As a professional player, he knew what injury meant to a player's career!This is not worth celebrating at all, even if he understands that the team's chances of winning have suddenly improved a lot after James was accidentally injured.

.........

Of course, the game has to continue. There are still 30 seconds left in the third quarter. It is still the Cavaliers’ offense, but perhaps due to James’ injury, McGinnis missed an open three-pointer. The Cavaliers’ offensive time is over. After that, there were still 19 seconds left for the Lakers to attack.

Caron Butler advanced with the ball. After advancing to the frontcourt, Butler handed the ball to Li Hao. Obviously, in the absence of Kobe, Li Hao was the best candidate to execute the final attack.

Without James' defense, Li Hao's pressure suddenly eased a lot. After receiving the pass from Butler, he firmly controlled the ball in his hands. Facing Robert's defense, Li Hao did not rush to make a shot, but It is constantly consuming time, and he wants to make a move at the last moment.

At the top of the arc, Robert, who was in charge of defending Li Hao, obviously understood Li Hao's thoughts, so he also worked very hard to make a defensive posture.

"6 seconds"

"4 seconds"

"It's time for the Lakers to make a shot on the [-]th, and there is not much time left in the game"

In the last 2 seconds, Li Hao faced Robert's defense and forced a shot inside the three-point line at the top of the arc. Interferenced by Robert, Li Hao's shot angle was not very good, but luckily, the basketball finally stumbled into the basket.

"Oh, Lee hit the buzzer"

"89:89! After three quarters, the score between the two sides is still the same. It was really a wonderful evenly matched game."

"However, for Cleveland, which is playing at home, with only the last quarter of the game left, this score is very serious, because although we still don't know the injury of LeBron James, what is certain is that he There's no way this game will be back in the game"

"In the case of LeBron James, the Cavaliers failed to widen the point difference, so obviously from this perspective, the victory of this game has begun to tilt towards the Los Angeles Lakers"

"This is definitely a bad news. Everyone knows what LeBron means to the Cleveland Cavaliers. He is the absolute core of offense and defense. The Cavaliers without LeBron James and the Cavaliers with LeBron James are completely two concepts."

"And don't forget that in addition to LeBron James being out for the fourth quarter, their starting shooting guard Ira Nubell is also out"

"

"What I'm worried about now is not whether LeBron James can play in the fourth quarter. I'm worried about his injury. The pain, once his injury is serious, it will definitely have a big impact on his career."

"Injuries, injuries, damn injuries, how many players' careers, dreams has he ruined?
When LeBron James was almost certain to not be able to repeat the game in the fourth quarter, in the eyes of many people, the balance of victory in this game has gradually tilted towards the Lakers, but at the same time, many people also know that the Lakers ultimately want to get this The victory of the game will definitely not be too easy.

After all, the accidental injury of the little emperor will definitely arouse the desire of all Cavaliers players to fight, and the Cavaliers are not behind in the score now. Once the Cavaliers can break out, it is really hard to say who will win.

"LeBron James' injury is a good opportunity for us from the perspective of the game, but as a team aiming to defend the championship, we must always remind ourselves that competitive sports only value results. Yes, this also requires us not to relax our vigilance at the end of the game."

"In the fourth quarter we are like this..."

On the Lakers bench, everyone surrounded Rudy Norwich and listened to Rudy Norwich's next tactical arrangement.

Of course, Rudy Norwich’s voices could be heard in many areas close to the Lakers’ bench at this time, and at least one thing was revealed from these voices, that is, Rudy Tom Norwich didn’t James' injury relaxes his nerves, as always, emphasizing the attitude of the game.

Everyone knows that this is one of the characteristics of Rudy Tom and Norwich's coaching.

.........

Soon, the inter-section time was over, and the players from both sides returned to the court, and when the players from both sides returned to the court, it also caused some restlessness.

On the Cavaliers side, if it is a helpless choice for head coach Mike Brown to replace LeBron James, who is unable to play, with Eric Snow, then for the Lakers, Rudy Tom and Norwich use Chris Mim instead. Brian Cook This is indeed intriguing.

Except for Chris Mim, when people thought that Li Hao, who broke out in the third quarter, would take a break, Rudy Tom and Norwich chose to let him stay on the court.

In this way, Rudy Tom and Norwich sent the starting lineup at the beginning of the fourth quarter: point guard Derek Fisher, shooting guard Li Hao, small forward Caron Butler, power forward Lamar Odo Tom, center Chris Mim.

The Cavaliers are: point guard McGinnis, shooting guard Robert, small forward Eric Snow, power forward Drew Gooden, center Varejao.

"Mike Brown's lineup is what we expected. After all, it's a good lineup when LeBron and Ira Nubel can't play, but Rudy Tom and Norwich's lineup is indeed outstanding than many people expected”

"I'm thinking that the reason why Rudy Tom and Norwich ruled out such a starting lineup may be because they want to play rhythm at the beginning of the fourth quarter. After all, the two sides are currently tied, and the start has become very important."

…………

Soon, the fourth quarter began. The Cavaliers were the first to attack. After McGinnis advanced the ball to the frontcourt, he used superb dribbling skills to throw off Derek Fisher and hit a layup.

Immediately after the Lakers' offense, Derek Fisher handed the ball to Li Hao immediately after holding the ball for half the court. Facing Robert's defense, Li Hao also broke through and made a layup.

In the next few rounds, both sides came and went, and both hit high shooting percentages, so the score still held the ball.

Such a situation annoyed Rudy Norwich on the sidelines, so Rudy Tom Norwich immediately requested a timeout.

"Damn, you let the opponent score too easily. Li, Derek, what are you doing? As the league's top defensive masters, you let the opponent score so easily. Tell you, want to win a game To win, you have to be good both offensively and defensively..."

Rudy Norwich is a representative of the NBA's old-school coaches. During the game, he attaches great importance to any small mistakes of the players, so even Li Hao and Kobe are sometimes yelled at by him.

Of course, both Li Hao and Kobe are very convinced by Rudy Tom and Norwich, because this old man really has a few brushes.

When the game started again, the Lakers, who were scolded by Rudy Tom and Norwich, finally improved on the defensive end. Chris Mim first rewarded McGinnis with a big cap at the basket, and then Caron Butler He also completed a steal against McGinnis. At the same time, Li Hao made consecutive mid-range hits on the offensive end, helping the Lakers take the lead.

"It's not a good sign for Cleveland. Obviously, McInnis is a very good player, but he played too much without LeBron during this period. His choice Some blindness, it gave the Lakers a chance"

"And we all know that, judging from the current lineups of the two teams on the court, the Cavaliers are already very weak on the defensive end, so once they can't seize opportunities and make frequent mistakes on the offensive end, it will be really dangerous, after all , the Los Angeles Lakers are the kind of team that is very good at seizing opportunities, and any of your mistakes may be called the clarion call for them to blow the attack wave.”

…………

When the game continued, the situation on the scene suddenly changed.

For the Lakers, Derek Fisher first hit a difficult three-pointer, and then Li Hao assisted Chris Mim to hit the same three-pointer at the top of the arc, beating the Cavaliers 6:0 in an instant.

Of course, if it’s just a 6:0, it’s not a sudden change. It’s just that the Lakers’ attack wave is still going on, and it’s Chris Mim who receives the ball from Li Hao’s organization in the left corner. The open three-pointer hit again, and then, Chris Mim's personal performance continued, at the top of the arc, facing Drew Gooden's defense, another ultra-long-range three-pointer, also hit!

"Three threes, three threes in a row, God, this is crazy"

"16 points, just a few rounds, the Lakers expanded the point difference to 16 points, 16 points, this is the record for the largest point difference between the two sides in the game, it is hard to imagine that this is led by an inconspicuous substitute player"

"The suspense of this game is being lost. Is this game finally going to be settled?"

"Rudy Tom and Norwich, once a champion coach, when he put Chris Mim on the pitch, we all looked at it with suspicion, and almost all of us ignored Chris Mim. Hum, this unknown guy has a great [-]-point shot"

……

Mike Brown finally called a timeout, but everyone felt that it was too late to call a timeout.

"With a 16-point difference, there are 7 minutes and 54 seconds left in the fourth quarter. In terms of time, the Cavaliers still have a chance to reverse, but in fact, we all know how difficult it is to get back 16 points from the Lakers. one thing"

"Still the same sentence, the injury of LeBron James is definitely a fatal blow to Cleveland. This kind of blow is not only a blow to morale, but also a blow to hard power. We can clearly see the hard power. When LeBron is on the court, he can not only provide great power on the defensive end, but also open up the situation on the offensive end.”

"That's true. From this point of view, Li Hao and LeBron James are both sophomores. LeBron James is even more important to the Cavaliers than Li Hao is to the Lakers. After all, the Lakers have more than Li Hao. There's a Kobe Bryant..."

.........

After a timeout, for the Lakers, Devin George replaced Derek Fisher. Derek Fisher was exhausted in this game. Although he didn't score too many points, his importance to the Lakers is self-evident .

The game continued, the Cavaliers' offense, Robert hit a three-pointer from the right corner, and scored a three-pointer for the Cavaliers. Immediately after the Lakers, Li Hao broke through and caused Varejao's shooting foul. Crawford gave Li Hao two free throws Opportunity.

For the Cavaliers, another danger is hitting, because Varejao has five fouls, and another foul, he will be ejected.

Under normal circumstances, Varejao would be replaced at this time, but Mike Brown has no choice, he can't let Varejao go off, otherwise there is no hope at all, after all, Varejao can provide a good insider when he is on the court Defense and rebounding can play a big role on both ends of the offense and defense.
