NBA: Start with a three-point experience card

Chapter 511 I can stand it
James originally wanted to defend Wang Yi alone.

He thought that even if he couldn't defend against Wang Yi, he could at least be able to interact with Wang Yi.

In the end, Wang Yi failed to explode, but Wang Yi gained the upper hand.

So he could only hastily end this 1v1 duel.

During the intermission, in the Lakers locker room, Howard kept clapping his hands to encourage the players.

"Hey guys, we haven't lost yet, it's not the end of the world."

James also encouraged the players as always:

"16 points is a fart, not a fart. We used to be able to recover from a 26-point deficit. They just shot the three-pointer today too accurately. We must find a way to curb their three-point momentum. At the same time You can't let them start a fast break, and once they start a fast break, their threes will follow."

Coach Vogel encouraged everyone: "They have been defending us with mad dog bites in front. This consumes too much energy for them. Have you seen it? The two threes they shot in the last 3 minutes of the third quarter Didn't make any shots. That's a good sign."

"In the 4th quarter, their physical strength dropped by three points. That's when we launched a counterattack. So boys, get on with it and take off their false king's crown. Stomp their home court!"

Vogel deserves to be the coach, and he found the crux of the problem at a glance.

Although the players knew that he was encouraging the players, his encouragement was persuasive, not empty chicken soup.

In the Kings locker room, coach Walton has begun to worry.

When the Kings began to bite like mad dogs, he was already a little worried that the Kings' physical fitness would decline in the second half and the fourth quarter, and their shooting percentage was not high.

Now through the last two shots in the third quarter, it can already be seen that the Kings players are tired.

So how to play this fourth quarter?
Can their 16-point lead allow them to lead the Lakers at the end of the game?

He couldn't help but looked at Wang Yi and asked, "Wang, is your body okay?"

Wang Yi nodded: "No problem."

Now his physical fitness has reached the limit of what an athlete can achieve.

Although now he is almost shoulder-to-shoulder offensive and defensive, but this is not enough for him to face the dilemma of excessive physical consumption.

But when the coach asked, Wang Yi knew what the coach meant.

He looked at the Kings players.

I saw that everyone's physical energy seemed to be exhausted.

Their foreheads were covered with fine beads of sweat, some were gulping water, and some were leaning back on their chairs, their chests heaving violently.

Wang Yi also had a bad premonition in his heart.

The decline in physical fitness must be accompanied by a drop in shooting percentage. For a team like the Kings that relies on three-pointers to dominate the world, a drop in shooting percentage means that the team is likely to collapse.

Wang Yi looked towards the bench like a coach.

Only Barnes, who didn't play in the second quarter, looked slightly better.

However, perhaps due to off-court factors, Barnes did not make any contribution in the third quarter just now.

Of course, the few substitutes who failed to play are all physically fit.

But in the playoffs, there are a few coaches who dare to rest assured to let these substitutes play.

Generally, there are 8 or even 7 rotations.

This is the case with the Kings at this time.

Except for Danny and Mitchell on the bench, no one else can play.

Wang Yi shook his head secretly.

Who can I count on at this time?
When he was on the Lakers before, he could still count on thick eyebrows and James.

Who can I count on now?

As the only core of the team, he can only rely on himself to make the top.

He secretly cheered himself up in his heart: I can stand it!

There seems to be such a picture in my mind: a migrant worker wearing a hard hat is pushing a cart of bricks uphill.

But the car was too heavy and the slope was too steep. He pushed the car halfway and slipped down again.

He ran uphill again and slid down again.

He just kept trying.

The fat-headed and big-eared boss next to him held a briefcase and looked disdainful: "How do you stand up?"

The migrant worker smiled wryly: "I can handle it."

"You can't stand it!"

The boss is a little angry.

"I can handle it."

The migrant workers persisted.

The boss got even angrier and yelled at the migrant worker's face, "You can't stand—"

The fat on his face was shaking.

The migrant workers smiled wryly and looked down at their feet.

There is bitterness in the smile, but there is also stubbornness and a man's responsibility.

"I... can handle it."

Thinking back to this clip, Wang Yi's fists gradually clenched.

I can handle it!

After brainwashing himself, he faced the players and coaches with a confident smile. .

He took a glass of water and handed it to the coach: "Coach, I won't let you lose."

Finally, he looked at all the players: "Brothers, don't worry, I won't let you lose!"

Seeing Wang Yi's confident smile and eyes full of fighting spirit, the coach felt a little more at ease.

Seeing Wang Yi's confident smile and eyes full of fighting spirit, the teammates feel more at ease in their hearts.

Whenever Wang Yi showed such a smile and such a gaze, they knew that Wang Yi would definitely lead them to victory.

Play in the 4th quarter.

Wang Yi still did not rest.

O'Neal on the sidelines couldn't help shaking his head: "It's nice to be young."

Magic Johnson disagreed with O'Neal's point of view: "There are many young people like Wang Yi, but there are a few who play like him. I suspect that his body is made of iron."

O'Neal nodded: "He and James Durant Westbrook are the same kind of people. Their physical structures are different from ordinary people. They both played a full 48 minutes in the playoffs, and today Wang Yi will also play for the first time in the playoffs. Played the full 48 minutes. But unlike James Durant and Westbrook..."

Magic Johnson knew what O'Neal meant when he said:
"That's right, James has Wade, Dragon King Bosh, and later, Love and Irving. Westbrook and Durant, who played 48 minutes back then, have each other. Now Wang Yi besides himself, he also has Who can you rely on? He is too tired to play, and he has to carry the entire team. Can his young shoulders carry it?"

"When they lose three points in the fourth quarter, what else can other Kings players do? And what can Wang Yi do at that time to prevent the Lakers from counterattacking?"

Under the comments of the two, the fourth quarter of the game between the two sides started.

This time the Lakers did not allow James to rest.

Instead, all the main players are on the field.

They had to recover the 4-point difference in the fourth quarter.

The Lakers served, and James tried a super long three-pointer on the first ball.

The basketball flew across the dome at the center of Golden No. 1, and fell into the basket precisely.

Three point hit!

This ultra-long three-pointer also blew the clarion call for the Lakers' counterattack.
