The nine hundred and ninetieth chapter is odd, be tougher, odd!
In the first quarter, 34 to 21, the Lakers were completely at a disadvantage.
The 76ers rotated as they pleased, and the Lakers only dared to let Durant go down and rest. James played for 12 minutes in the first quarter.
In the second quarter, Luke Walton gave James a break, and Durant, who had a 2-minute break in the first quarter, came up to stabilize the morale of the army.
Wei Xia sat off the court, but couldn't be calm.
If they can enter the second half with a double-digit advantage, they will be very confident that they will have obvious advantages until the end of the fourth quarter.
If the Lakers dragged to the fourth quarter, James and Durant join forces will undoubtedly become the biggest hidden danger.
The Lakers first broke through with Clarkson and scored 2 points.
23 to 34
The 76ers were led by Kobe and the second army, and the other four were Rose, Robertson, Bamott and Zhou Qi.
The center position is obviously the weakness of the 76ers, but there is only one Little Lance in the Lakers' inside line. The rest, such as the second-year inside line, Zubac, looks stronger than Zhou Qi, but is a more traditional inside line. Since he has no shooting ability and no low-post singles ability, his playing time must be staggered with James.
He and Zhou Qi are like each other's front and back. If the advantages of these two people are combined together, they will be a high-quality starter insider.
The 76ers' second army does not seem to have super strong offensive points.
Although Kobe averaged 20 per game, he always gave people a sense of being old.
Because his assist rate at the Sixers is higher than that of Klay Thompson of the Warriors.
This shows that his current style of play is completely different from that of the Lakers.
Suddenly joining a lineup that requires him to play with the ball, can he still play?
However, Kobe seemed obsessed with the feeling of being assisted, gave Rose a pick-and-roll, and then took the initiative to run to his sweet spot.
Ross' breakthrough momentum was very fierce. Zubac blocked the pass, but in order to prevent Ross, the price they paid was to allow Kobe to get a free space.
Rose's ball was passed, and when Kobe's three-pointer was made, Wei Xia stood up and raised her hands.
"Swish!!!"
"You are even more cruel to the Lakers than me, Kobe!" Wei Xia joked.
Kobe was furious and cold: "It's not me who scored 62 points against the Lakers."
37 to 23
"No matter where Kobe is, Lakers fans will support him, except today!" Michael Thompson said in a complicated mood, "Let Kobe leave Los Angeles is the cruelest thing wish has ever done to Lakers fans!"
The Lakers' offense does not have as many details as the 76ers.
As the Lakers took the initiative to provoke the game rhythm of confrontation first, the 76ers happily accepted it and forced their shooters to miss the shooting with a more fierce confrontation.
Durant is not as versatile as James, but he is the most talented player on the court.
His teammate missed a three-pointer, and he grabbed the rebound and turned around and hit the hook like an inside line.
He played the fourth position in the Lakers, and the egalitarian master Walton used Durant as Garnett. Judging from his talent alone, Durant can indeed afford Walton's usage.
It's just that I've been fighting against people in the inside for a long time, and it's like 76 people.
They were originally thinking about how to increase Durant's confrontation, and Walton took the initiative to deliver fat to their mouths, and there was no reason not to eat it.
"Cheese, your arm span is longer than him. Can it be harder?" Cousins was anxious.
At this time, Zhou Qi was not able to understand English, which may not be a good thing for him.
Because he couldn't understand, he didn't know how eager his teammates wanted him to be hard.
Wei Xia is not as troubled as him, because Zhou Qi is just a rookie. In the first year, he completed weight gain and consciously developed three-pointers. This is all planned. It is only Wright's wishful thinking to expect him to fight Durant as soon as he comes up.
Cousins' complaints to his teammates are a bit like Michael Jordan. 1. He treats people around him with very strict standards, which is a kind of willfulness. After a giant baby who is not big suddenly matures, although he can get the severity of his nature, he is difficult to change his nature. He transfers the innocence in his personality to his teammates.
The most obvious feature is that you must do what I can do.
The Lakers have a strong defense and are very aggressive in attacking rebounds, which means they have the opportunity to remedy every attack failure.
The Lakers' second army is entirely up to Kobe and Ross.
Ross was very decisive and sharply broke through with a very high style, but the ending rate of the penalty area was very different from that of him during the MVP period.
What makes people sigh the most is Kobe's position.
He has really become a monster!
Almost every time he chooses, he is a position that Ross can see and pass. Even if the Lakers defend in place, he can still dribble by himself to catch the ball.
This round, the Lakers' defense is worthy of praise.
Josh Hart, who changed defense, was a Taobao event for the Lakers at the 2017 draft. He had fierce defense and stable three-pointers, and was a mature and ready-to-fighting force.
When encountering Kobe, he could keep up with his first two steps, but from the third step, something happened.
Kobe stopped and protected the ball while not forgetting to give the young man an open iron elbow. Hart was driven away by the elbow and still did not forget to defend, but ended up being fooled.
Kobe's shot was just a feint. After Hart jumped up, in just half a second, the Black Mamba who was about to defend, turned around dexterously and flashed his defense and made a light shot.
"Swish!"
"I'm so old, be careful to dodge my waist!" Wei Xia couldn't sit still when she saw it.
Wright originally asked him to sit off the court and rest, but every 76ers' offensive round, Wei Xia couldn't control himself.
He often stood up to cheer for his teammates. Once he scored, he would definitely be the one who was most excited.
Usually, those who set the rhythm and atmosphere like this are players who have no chance to play, and it is unreasonable for him to do this.
The Lakers' offense is so rough that it is hard to see. At the same time, when rushing for offensive rebounds, everyone is a beast.
Zhou Qi’s biggest problem is that he lacks protection for defensive rebounds.
If there were people like Wei Xia on the court, it would be fine. Now he is partnered with two guards, Ross and Kobe, who don’t like to grab rebounds. His rebound control is very clumsy. Bamott is not big enough. After Robertson returns from injury, his health is not as good as before.
It is no exaggeration to say that from the second quarter, every time the Lakers fails on offense, there is a 90% chance of grabbing offensive rebounds for the second offense.
If Kobe and others had not had the high offensive success rate and the defensive rebounds were caught like this, the score difference would have long fallen to single digits.
At this moment, another offensive rebound.
Zubac played the fierce and ruthless side of the white man's inside rebound, grabbed the ball, and used his back to push Zhou Qi's dunk.
"Qi's body is too thin!" Assistant coach McGee shook his head, "The intensity of the finals is not suitable for him!"
Lai Te said, and then called a pause.
In the past 4 minutes of the second quarter, 31 to 4, the Lakers have a trend of catching up.
Wright doesn't want to give them any chance. After this timeout, replace Zhou Qi, Robertson, Ross, and slow down Weisha, Garlinari and Cousins.
The Lakers also exchanged James back.
"Boge, please open the position for me." Wei Xia said flamboyantly, "I think LeBron must really want to be one-on-one with me."
Cousins seemed to not believe James: "Really? He dared to be one-on-one with you?"
If you are louder, you probably will hear what he said in front of the TV.
It is a fan who knows how strong Wei Xia's ability to fight alone is. James cannot not know. James is so angry that he really proves his thoughts and fires frequently at mid-range like an evil tiger.
His sudden outbreak brought huge effects to the Lakers.
The last thing I want to encounter in a team of 76ers is the unreasonable super giant taking over.
Perhaps it should be said that all teams in the world are afraid of superstars coming to burst out and output.
That was the most unreasonable thing on the court.
James' shooting, which was criticized by countless people, was outrageous when he got angry and let go of his distractions.
At most, the Lakers chased to 5 points.
Weisha made Wright stop calling for a timeout, and he first responded with three points from the outside.
Suddenly, they were forced to give the ball to Durant.
Walton's ghost arrangement has taken effect. Durant, who has been fighting in the inside for a long time, has no shooting feel. When James needs help the most, when the Lakers' super giant takes over the rhythm most needs to be continued, he shoots three-nos.
Moreover, these three non-touches fell into Cousins' arms, and he grabbed Durant's bread ball and made a perfect long pass for Kobe.
With the bullet from Unseld, he gave it to Kobe in the frontcourt.
Kobe transported the ball and gave the 40-year-old man the ultimate speed and the highest bounce. He ended the counterattack with Stephen Curry and others who could only achieve a dunk in his dream.
50 to 40
James' performance interrupted Wei Xia.
Durant obviously only had a three-way match, but the consequence was that the 76ers worked hard to further increase the score difference to 10 points.
With three minutes left before the end of the first half, the Lakers found it difficult to find another wave of approaching the score to chase.
Chapter completed!
