Chapter 792 The Green Army’s Plan Is Beginning to Look Impressive!
"The Lakers surprisingly played a perfect rhythm in the first quarter. The ten-point difference illustrates this. They did not let Ji Feng hold the ball too much. Ji Feng took one shot in a single quarter and only scored 2 points, but he was still efficient. He sent out 4 assists and still made zero mistakes.”
"Furthermore, Ji Feng's contribution to space expansion and defense is still outstanding. He is still an important part of the Lakers' lead. Does Ji Feng want to become an almighty prince again tonight?"
Smith said when summing up his performance at the peak of the first quarter.
Barkley paid more attention to the state of the entire Lakers team. He said: "The Lakers have a wide range of scoring points. Kobe has 8 points, Gasol has 6 points, Bynum has 4 points, Fisher has 3 points, and Ladd came off the bench. Manovich also scored 4 points, and Farmar scored 2 points, which means that 7 of their 7 players scored in the first quarter. I think this is the last thing the Celtics want to see. All the Lakers are in full bloom tonight. "
"The Celtics are still dominated by the Big Three. Garnett is the best performer, scoring 10 points in a single quarter, Pierce 4 points, Ray Allen 3 points, and the rest only have 3 points combined. They obviously needed to do more in the second quarter.”
It has to be said that after the first quarter, the mood of Celtics fans has hit rock bottom. Anyone familiar with basketball knows that on the basketball court, you are not afraid of a lonely CARRY, but you are afraid of all the villains on the opposite side.
When everyone throws away everything, it is really a desperate thing.
However, ESPN also comforted Green Army fans. After all, the Lakers shot as high as 70% in the first quarter. This shooting rate is almost impossible to maintain until the end, so everything is still unknown.
Of course, if it really happens...
Then you can only consider yourself unlucky...
In the second quarter, the Lakers put on the bench. Ji Feng played almost the entire first quarter, so he sat off the court and rested. Kobe did the same, with Gasol and Turiaf leading the game on the inside, and Fei Fei on the outside. Scheer and Wharton.
After seeing this lineup, Rivers decisively chose Pierce, Ray Allen and PJ Brown, who have stronger offensive capabilities, and paired them with "Big Baby" Davis and Bowie on the inside.
Obviously, Rivers has also carefully studied the Lakers' bench lineup and knows that there are two different things between reaching the peak season and not.
Sure enough, without Ji Feng, the substitute lineup was a little flustered. On the offensive end, they basically looked for Gasol to play one-on-one, or Fisher and Walton made a wave of outside shots. As expected, the shooting rate began to decrease. .
However, the defense of this lineup is not bad. Although the Green Army's substitutions are very targeted and Ray Allen has high hopes, the Lakers backcourt Xuan Ming and Xuan Ming are not ordinary people. They are both veterans and have rich playoff experience. With experience, I know very well how to play at this time, so Ray Allen still didn't open the three-pointer.
After Pierce scored a goal to reduce the score to 8 points, the point difference never changed!
The Lakers bench generals showed everyone what it means to not have enough offense, but to make up for it with defense. They used iron-blooded defense to lower the Green Army's shooting percentage!
Back and forth, the two sides were evenly divided.
"Fight! Throw the damn basketball in for me!" Rivers was really anxious now. He was the coach, and he was helpless if he couldn't make the shot on the court!
Zen Master was very satisfied. The game went so smoothly and everything seemed to be under control. Five minutes into the second quarter, Zen Master waved his hand and all the main players came out.
"GO LAKERS GO!"
"GO LAKERS GO!"
"GO LAKERS GO!"
Staples sounded the cheers of the fans, and was full of momentum to end the game.
Rivers was forced to make substitutions and all the main players returned. They are very passive now, so he is eager to change the team's status quo.
Soon, the opportunity came!
The main force of the Lakers returned. On the first ball, Ji Feng passed the ball to Bynum, and Bynum hit Perkins with his back. However, the tough guy Perkins was obviously emotionally exploded now, and his whole body muscles were bulging. Bynum pushed twice and failed. promote!
Bynum could only forcefully turn around!
But Garnett came back to defend!
Snapped!
The iconic assist defense block, the basketball flew into Rondo's hands. Rondo used his speed to eat Fisher alone, rushed to the frontcourt to attract the defensive attention, and then passed the ball without looking behind his head!
Garnett followed up with an alley-oop dunk!
One attack and one defense!
The Wolf King shows off his fangs!
"Back on defense! Back on defense!" Garnett did not celebrate, but greeted his teammates to retreat in the face of boos.
While this move received unanimous praise from the commentators, it also ignited the iron-blooded passion of the Celtics!
The defensive intensity of the Green Army, which was supported by all three armies, suddenly increased again. The Lakers did not have a good chance to take action. The crazy defense made the Lakers a little panicked. It was not until the last 4 seconds that Kobe was given the opportunity. Kobe could only hastily make a super long-range three-pointer.
Blacksmithing!
"Pass it earlier!" Kobe was very dissatisfied with the ball, but soon he was chasing forward because the Green Army counterattacked!
After the Green Army took control of the rebound, they launched a counterattack for the first time in a long time. Rondo's role was reflected. He used a long swing in the backcourt to assist Ray Allen for a layup!
Four points in a row!
The score difference returned to 4 points, and the atmosphere suddenly became tense.
"Let me go, the Green Army is indeed the Green Army." Many fans lamented that these attacks were very thoughtful and the defense was tough enough. It was indeed a tough game and not safe at all.
The Zen Master called a timeout!
"Ji Feng catches the ball and cooperates with Kobe. We have to ensure the success rate, don't pass too many passes, and be firm when it's time to take action!" Master Zen said holding the tactical board.
The critical moment is when the stars are tested.
"I will avenge you!" Ji Feng said as he patted Bynum on the back before going on the court. He felt relaxed despite the heavy responsibility on his shoulders.
Because he has this strength!
In the first attack back on the court, Ji Feng dribbled the ball and passed it to Kobe at halftime. Ji Feng slid down the baseline and was closely followed by Pierce who was facing a formidable enemy. After all, he was also afraid of Ji Feng's unreasonable actions. Three point shot.
But Ji Feng wasn't going to go out and shoot a three-pointer this time. He made eye contact with Kobe, and Bynum's huge body came up with a baseline pick-and-roll, and Pierce was knocked to pieces.
Ji Feng is neutral!
Kobe threw it directly into the sky from the top of the arc!
Ji Feng leaped high to catch the ball with both hands. When he saw Perkins coming to defend him, his momentum did not diminish at all. There was actually a second rise in the camera lens!
boom!
"COME ON!"
Ji Feng dunked the ball into the basket through Perkins' arm!
Land!
Beat your chest!
roar!
Behind him is a confused Perkins and stunned fans!
"It's so beautiful! See JK connecting again! Gliding from the baseline, catching the ball with both hands and dunking it hard, Perkins once again added the ball to the background!" Yu Jia shouted excitedly.
The domineering Ji Feng helped the Lakers stabilize the situation!
But here, Rivers replaced James Posey on the court, and the whisper before leaving made people think that this substitution was not very simple.
Sure enough, on the first goal, James Posey blocked Ji Feng's goal with a very rough foul when Ji Feng was able to lay up!
This foul almost caused a conflict between the two teams, and the game was suspended for 3 minutes.
However, Ji Feng seemed to smell something unusual: "It looks like these guys are about to take action."
