The game in the second quarter was indeed as analyzed by several commentators, and the situation of the Kings took a turn for the worse.
The first is that the Lakers controlled their turnovers.
Even if Wang Yi has an intermediate unsolvable steal experience card, the number of steals in the second quarter was cut in half, with only 4.
In addition to 4 steals by Wang Yi, the Lakers made only one mistake.
And that mistake could not be converted into a score for the Kings.
Secondly, the Lakers have strengthened their offensive intensity and overall coordination.
The connection between James and thick eyebrows, the connection between James and Melo.
The connection between Westbrook and James.
In the second quarter, the Lakers were almost completely crushed into one unit.
This makes their scoring not only very easy, but also extremely efficient.
On the other hand, the Kings did not use a biting defense on the defensive end.
At the same time, their own offense is not ideal either.
In this quarter, they only made 3 of 10 three-pointers.
Their two-point shooting percentage is only over 40%.
Their three-point shooting percentage has dropped, and the Lakers can double-team Wang Yi unscrupulously.
When Wang Yi passed the ball out, they couldn't make a shot at all.
So at the end of the second quarter, the Lakers in turn led the Kings by 9 points.
But it's not over yet.
In the third quarter, when the Kings launched a biting defense, their outside shooting percentage was even lower because they put too much energy into defense.
Although the Lakers were somewhat uncomfortable being defended by the Kings' biting defense, they were unable to achieve the overall effect.
But their individual offensive efficiency is extremely terrifying.
Both James and Big Eyebrow performed well in this quarter.
Both of their shooting percentages reached over 70%.
This is the strength of the current Lakers.
They are very strong as a whole, and their individual abilities are also very outstanding.
And as long as two of the four giants perform well, it will make it very uncomfortable for the opponent.
Although Wang Yi once tried a long three-point shot in this quarter, his three-point shooting rate in this quarter also dropped sharply.
Just 1 out of 7 shots.
This is the NBA, you can't be a hit every game.
It's also impossible for you to breed violently every session.
Even if he is as strong as Jordan, he will stretch his hips in a certain game.
It's just that the number of times he stretched his hips was far less than others.
As a result, the Lakers actually scored 17 points more than the Kings in this quarter.
In terms of total points, the Kings have fallen behind by 26 points.
And there is only 12 minutes left in the last quarter.
At this time, the entire Staples Center began to roar again.
The team was full of momentum. When they walked off the field, they all high-fived and bumped their chests excitedly.
James even gave every player on the bench a high-five and then sat down heavily on his chair.
The other three giants also sat side by side.
The Big Four of the Lakers are like the Four Kings, majestic and full of aura.
Commentator O'Neal couldn't help but look a little excited, after all, he was once a Lakers player.
"The Lakers played quite well in this quarter. The Kings seemed to have used up their three-point luck in the last game, and their three-point shooting percentage this time was really terrible. Even Wang Yi, who has always been very accurate in the past, made a mistake in the third quarter.
He only made 1 of 7 three-pointers in the quarter. It is almost impossible for the Kings to beat the Lakers like this."
"But to be honest, although Wang Yi didn't feel good today, he helped the team in other aspects. He scored three more steals in the third quarter. So his number of steals today has reached..."
When he said this, O'Neill looked extremely surprised.
His eyes were round and his mouth was open in an O shape!
"His steals reached 15 times, unbelievable!"
When Wade heard O'Neal's words and looked at O'Neal's exaggerated expression, he expressed disbelief.
He was also a master of steals when he was playing basketball, and he knows how difficult it is to steal.
You can get four or five steals in a game, which is already a lot.
There are very few people in the entire NBA history who have scored double figures in steals.
The highest number of individual steals in a single game is only 11.
That was shared by Larry Kennon in 1976 and Kendall Gill in 1999.
O'Neal now actually said that Wang Yi had only finished the third quarter and had already completed 15 steals.
Please, don't make such childish jokes, okay?
"Brother, it is undeniable that Wang Yi made a lot of steals today, but you said that he has only finished the third quarter and has already set a historical record for steals. This..."
Wade puffed his cheeks and was about to retort, when he saw Wang Yi's steal data on the tablet in front of O'Neal.
Exactly 15.
"Holy shit!"
"This is impossible."
"It is undeniable that he made a lot of steals today, but can his steal data reach 15? This is simply crazy."
Wade screamed as if he was suddenly bitten and almost jumped up.
Reggie Miller also took the tablet at this time.
The data above is more detailed.
"I made 8 steals in the first quarter, 4 of which were from Westbrook, two steals from James, one from James, and one from Tucker. I had 4 steals in the second quarter..."
In this piece of data, the details of every steal made by Wang Yi are listed.
Only then did Wade suddenly realize.
He puffed up his big cheeks and shook his head repeatedly: "This guy is simply a devil."
At this time, O'Neill pulled out all Wang Yi's data.
28 points, 15 steals, 8 rebounds, 7 assists and 5 blocks!
"It's crazy. The data is crazy."
Wade still shook his head: "After the fourth quarter, he will probably get a 4-double!"
O'Neal said: "Actually, you can be a little bolder. What if he blocks 5 more shots in the 4th quarter?"
"You mean...five pairs?!"
Wade shook his head repeatedly: "Impossible, five double-doubles is too outrageous. No one has ever won unparalleled doubles in the entire history of the NBA.
O'Neal nodded: "You are right. But no one has ever scored 102 points in NBA history."
Wade couldn't refute: "Well, I believe Wang Yi can get 5 doubles one day, but it will definitely not work tonight. After all, he is still short of 5 blocks. There are only 12 minutes left, and he can get it in 12 minutes."
Block 5 shots next time?”
O'Neal shrugged and replied: "Anything is possible."
At the same time, in the Tencent NBA live broadcast room.
The commentators were all a bit silent.
Ke Fan: "Oh, it's hard for the Kings to play tonight's game."
Director Zhang Weiping nodded: "Actually, there was not much suspense in this series. It was very unexpected that the Kings could tie the score at 2:2. When the Lakers paid attention tonight, the Kings had no chance to fight back.
So I think there are 12 minutes left in this game and we are 26 points behind, so there is not much suspense about the outcome. The only suspense now is whether Wang Yi can score a 5-double in this game."
Chapter completed!
