The head coaches of the two teams did not adjust their playing style. Although the players were under great pressure, they played very happily.

Zhang Hao and Grant Hill have both entered the state.

Zhang Hao is used to the rhythm of this game. He assists as soon as he passes it. It is very pleasant. Occasionally, he supports the team's attack based on his excellent judgment on teammates' movement and his opponent's movement. It is even more enjoyable when teammates make a comeback.

Grant Hill's playing rules are completely different from Zhang Hao. They mainly focus on instigating the entire team's offense. He doesn't care whether the direct pass will assist. He also needs to make a strong shot when necessary or seize the opportunity in that moment and throw the ball into it.

The two are privately friends, but on the court, both Zhang Hao and Grant Hill regard each other as their biggest competitors, because they are players who entered the NBA at the same time, just one year away.

In contrast, Zhang Hao still has a more obvious advantage in terms of teammates. He has two All-Star teammates Kenny Anderson and Barkley. The other teammates are a little weaker, mostly functional teammates. Grant Hill's role player teammates are even better but not All-Star teammates, and only Joe Dumas is barely close to the All-Star level. Teammates must be Zhang Hao.

But it doesn't matter whether it is fair or not. Jordan also has Pippen and Rodman around him. Zhang Hao has never denied that he has played so well in the NBA to a large extent because of his teammates.

Both of them were fully committed to the showdown with each other. Zhang Hao had to face Jerome Williams' mad dog-like single defense and Grant Hill's assisted defense. Grant Hill needed to face Zhang Hao's outside shooting interference and mid- and close-range clamp defense. Both of them needed to connect the team's offense in such a defense.

In order to organize the offense, Grant Hill is more capable of finding teammates, but Zhang Hao has Barkley and Kenny Anderson, and has a higher success rate.

The situation remained anxious until the end of the third quarter. The Lakers overtook the Pistons 81-80 for 1 point after the third quarter, and played against the Pistons 28-25 in a single quarter.

However, at critical moments, personal ability is more important, and at critical moments, the personal ability of outside stars is often stronger than that of inside stars.

From the second quarter, Grant Hill mainly focused on making up for Zhang Hao. His experience was more experienced than before in terms of physical strength distribution. At the beginning of the fourth quarter, he attacked with all his strength and led the team to a 13-5 wave. After three minutes in the fourth quarter, he helped the Pistons overtake 93-86 and lead the Lakers by 5 points!

Kenny Anderson missed another single-time jump shot from Joe Dumas. The Pistons advanced steadily and played a three-pointer. Joe Dumas, who had just made a contribution on the defensive end, received the ball and made a three-pointer...

He was able to climax the fourth quarter and widen the score difference, but unfortunately, Joe Dumas did not make the ball.

Just as Del Harris was ready to stop the rebound and immediately called for a timeout to replace Barkley in advance, a figure rushed to the front court like lightning. Grant Hill, Jerome Williams, and Joe Dumas struggled to chase... The distance was getting bigger and bigger!

The Magician grabbed the defensive rebound and passed Zhang Hao for a long time. Zhang Hao "single" full power triggered. At the beginning of the fourth quarter, he sucked his collar and recovered to the physical strength he had just returned from the midfield. At this time, it finally played a role. He quickly got the counterattack dunk and scored two points!

Grant Hill tried his best to widen the gap in one fell swoop at the beginning of the fourth quarter before Barkley was replaced. Finally, he created a 7-point lead. Zhang Hao narrowed the gap to 5 points with a counterattack dunk.

The key is that Grant Hill needs to slow down at this time. In the first three minutes of the game, the Lakers only scored 6 points, without free throws or three-pointers, and made 3 of 7 shots. In fact, it was not very bad. It was mainly because Grant Hill played the show. The Pistons scored six consecutive rounds of offense at the beginning of the fourth quarter, and they scored 13-7 in a 13-7 run. This was led by Grant Hill with all his strength. 8 of these 13 points were obtained by him alone.

But when Grant Hill suffered a physical decline due to his fierce attack, Zhang Hao was still active, and he felt faster than when he finished the previous quarter!

This situation is coming again! This is not the first time Grant Hill has encountered this situation!

In fact, the Pistons have been on guard from the beginning and cannot be consumed by the Lakers, otherwise they will be dragged down by the Lakers and defeated by Zhang Hao in the end. They have made a lot of preparations and want to play an advantage in regular time.

But tonight, Zhang Hao has so far 8 points, 13 rebounds, 12 assists, 3 steals and 1 block, Barkley has 27 points and 9 rebounds, and Kenny Anderson has 22 points. When the role players suffer, the Lakers have bitten the score. Now, it's time for Zhang Hao again!

Immediately afterwards, Grant Hill scored another goal, and made a turn and throw shot from the inside, increasing his personal score to 33 points. The Pistons once again scored a 7-point lead.

But as soon as he took action, Zhang Hao rushed directly to the frontcourt. To say that Jerome Williams's style of play is very similar to the Pistons' best defensive player, Dennis Rodman. He is very good at clinging and never slacking off on the defensive end, but his ability is far from Rodman.

Zhang Hao started successfully, surpassed all teammates, and surpassed all opponents successfully. He was the first to rush into the opponent's three-point line. The Magician directly served a long pass. Zhang Hao received the ball at the free throw line and took a step out to jump. He gently dunked the ball into the basket with both hands, and 10 points! 10 points, 13 rebounds and 12 assists!

It was the Pistons' offense again. Addis Thorpe's close shot missed, and Grant Hill was speechless. Every time he played against the Lakers, Addis Thorpe was surprisingly tricky.

Addis Thorpe had no choice. He met Jason Williams, who was not inferior to Jerome Williams. The garbage dog was written on his face, "I'm very vulgar." Jia Giant is not. Jia Giant has a very honest face, but it is quite vulgar when defending. Jia Giant is not inferior to the garbage dog at all.

Fortunately, the Pistons retreated quickly this time and started retreating in advance, interrupting Zhang Hao's fast attack.

Grant Hill led the team hard and led the team to 5 points ahead of the Lakers to enter the official timeout with 6 minutes and 11 seconds in the fourth quarter.

When I moved, it was actually not bad. The belief in defeating Zhang Hao supported Grant Hill.

However, after entering the pause and stopping the exercise, it was like after working hard for more than half an hour, the feeling of emptiness came in an instant.

Grant Hill felt so tired and wanted to have a cigar.

With 35 points, 6 rebounds, 4 assists and 2 steals, he really tried his best. He played for more than 42 minutes. Now that he stopped, he felt that he was floating in every step.

This feeling was like playing Conra with her parents on her back all night in college.

The Pistons sent Terry Mills and Ratliff a new inside combination, Lynch Hunter, Joe Dumas and Grant Hill continued to go.

The Lakers also replaced Barkley, and Doug Christie didn't need it, Kenny Anderson, George Lynch, Magic, Barkley and Zhang Hao came on the court.

...

With Grant Hill and the guaranteed strength, it is difficult to play like the Lakers that exceeds the upper limit of strength...

Thinking of this, Doug Collins couldn't help but look at Scott Collins with disgusting eyes.

Seeing his face that was exactly the same as himself showed a disgusting expression to him, Scott Collins asked Cangtian speechlessly. Since he came to work in the NBA, as long as Zhang Hao played well, he would be disgusted by his own brother.

Anyway, I can't defend myself anymore, and Doug Collins has no choice but to strengthen the attack.

The lineups on both sides seem to be able to defend. Anyway, the Lakers are blocking Grant Hill. Instead of thinking too much, it is better to focus on their previous style of play. The rest are left to Zhang Hao, Barkley, and Kenny Anderson.

At the critical moment, the Pistons really had to point at Joe Dumas. In the first two minutes after the official timeout, the former MVP led the Pistons to defend their advantage. Zhang Hao scored 6 points and 1 assist, helping the Lakers scored 4 goals in a row and scored 9 points. The Pistons also scored 8 points. Joe Dumas scored a three-pointer by himself, passed Terry Mills with a three-point assist, and Lynch Hunter with an assist with an empty cut layup.

If Joe Dumas is 5 years younger, then the Pistons' second scorer in regular time, the key scorer in the last moment, and the freeing of Grant Hill from the defensive end when they meet the outside superstar... Most of the problems can be solved, but Joe Dumas is already 34 years old. After more than two minutes of bravery at the critical moment, he once again faced George Lynch's defense mid-range shot!

The Magic used Barkley to grab the defensive rebound, and the Lakers counterattacked!

Zhang Hao received the ball in the frontcourt, and the Pistons retreated very quickly, and Ratliff retreated immediately.

The Pistons thought that Zhang Hao, who had 18 points, 15 rebounds and 13 assists, would pass the ball at this time, and he was still 2 assists away from 3 times 15. However, after entering the free throw line, facing Ratliff and Grant Hill, he raised his arms and squeezed through the middle of the two, jumped and scored two points!

It's 20 points!

Zhang Hao, who only scored 6 points in the first three quarters, had already scored 14 points in a single quarter in the last quarter! 106 to 108, the Lakers narrowed the gap to two points!

With 1 minute and 55 seconds left, the Pistons called another timeout!

...

After the suspension, neither team called the suspension.

The Pistons are an offensive lineup. After the timeout, Doug Collins' arrangement was successful. Terry Mills gave Ratliff a baseline lob, and the latter dunked and scored two points.

This borrowed Grant Hill's cutting threat. Even though Grant Hill seemed very tired, the threat was still there. Under such circumstances tonight, Grant Hill still scored 35 points and showed his strength in front of Los Angeles fans.

However, Zhang Hao rushed out immediately and no longer cared about the problem of heavy dunk affecting the feel. When he received the ball in the frontcourt, he rushed into the inside line with Lynch Hunter, who was following very tightly, and smashed the ball into the basket through Lynch Hunter with a tomahawk-style dive!

Lynch Hunter is almost hanging on Zhang Hao, but he is crushed by Zhang Hao, so he doesn’t even have the ability to be a pendant!

Next, both sides missed the shot once. The Pistons panicked and retreated, but were scared by Zhang Hao's counterattack. On the Lakers, Barkley missed the jump shot from the bottom line. Ratlif stuck the position, and Joe Dumas defended the defensive rebound, but Zhang Hao failed to grab it.

When the Pistons attacked, the Pistons lacked players who made the final decision at the critical moment and missed two consecutive shots at the critical moment!

This time, Zhang Hao seized the opportunity, grabbed the rebound and passed it to Kenny Anderson. He immediately stepped down and counterattacked and received the pass from Kenny Anderson's advance, and flew onto a layup!

24 points, 16 rebounds and 13 assists!

110 draw! Finally, with 33 seconds left in the fourth quarter, the Lakers tied the score again!

The Pistons did not pause! They called more timeouts tonight than the Lakers!

Grant Hill asked for the ball towards Lynch Hunter after Lynch Hunter advanced to the frontcourt. At this time, he wanted to do it himself.

It wasn't that he didn't trust Joe Dumas, but Joe Dumas had scored 21 points tonight and shot 17 times. He knew he could no longer beat him.

After several rounds of slowing down, the feeling of walking was finally relieved. Facing Zhang Hao's defense, Grant Hill's beautiful cross-step successfully broke through again and broke through directly under the basket!

The Magician blocked to the right side of the three-second zone, and Barkley also retracted from the bottom line on the right.

After entering the low post, Grant Hill leaned up toward the Magician and grabbed the ball and pushed Terry Mills to the bottom line.

Barkley had already retracted and saved Terry Mills again. When Grant Hill pushed it out, he grabbed the ball with his hands tightly. When Barkley immediately expanded, he took the ball back. Under the Magician's sticking defense, he stepped back and took off, jumped, and took action...

Grant Hill felt good when he shot this goal.

The current position is very similar to when the Magicians defeated the Celtics 10 years ago.

When feeling the feel of the ball hooking out, Grant Hill seemed to have seen the post-match news that he "salutes" the magician's decisive killing of Xiao Tiangou... "Pa"... "Bang"...

The hand touched the ball, the ball touched the rebound... Two consecutive sounds woke up Grant Hill, who was intoxicated in an instant.

Zhang Hao, who was chasing in, made a judgment instantly, rushed towards Grant Hill, hooked up Grant Hill from behind Grant Hill and flew away the ball that had not yet reached the highest point, hit the rebound and bounced back!

Grant Hill quickly turned around and chased Zhang Hao, who had received the bounced back.

However, although Zhang Hao's speed dropped to the speed at the end of the third quarter again, and even worse, Grant Hill, the speed of the other Pistons, dropped more!

Zhang Hao rushed to the frontcourt and smashed the ball into the basket with one hand... 20 points in a single quarter!

26 points, 17 rebounds, 13 assists, 3 steals and 2 blocks. Zhang Hao blocked the shot, rebounded, and counterattacked one-stop, helping the Lakers take the lead with two points 112-110!

Grant Hill struggled to catch up to the free throw line before gradually stopping, watching Zhang Hao beat the score with one hand and overturned the score.

Looking at Zhang Hao's cold face turned around, running towards him, that is, his defense, Grant Hill wanted to ask - wouldn't you be nervous?

In such a fierce competition, this guy is still so calm!

Just when the two were about to pass each other, and they didn't plan to continue looking at Zhang Hao's face and felt it was too annoying, Grant Hill saw Zhang Hao raise his hand.

I turned my head curiously and saw Zhang Hao holding his hands up with his back to him, clenching his fist, holding his index finger up the sky, and waving his left and right...

The fans on the scene started their first counterattack in the fourth quarter, and the cheers never stopped. Just now, Zhang Hao’s counterattack dunk that overtook the score was almost hoarse.

But when he saw Zhang Hao's actions, he still couldn't help but cheer wildly at the top of his throat!

Too explosive!

20 points in the last quarter!

Grant Hill scored 12 points in the last quarter, which was already very good. Zhang Hao played even harder in the key quarter!

Originally, fans were worried that Zhang Hao had rebounded and assisted more than 10 times, and it would be funny if he didn't score in double digits.
To be continued...
