Chapter 441 The Lakers in Desperation

The performance of the Mosaic team in the first quarter made the Lakers feel a little bit stunned.The mosaic team's internal and external combination is very skillful. Li Tian also put away his contempt for Mehta, and his performance has become remarkable. He is no longer like the previous two encounters with Li Tian, ​​with his eyes above the top. .

It seems that only blood lessons are the most important source of player growth.

The restrictions on Li Tian played a big role.Every player who can be selected for the first defense or DPOY, on the defensive end, is really not covered, and still has a few brushes.

"Li, what's going on, why do I feel that the Mosaic team has really become stronger?" Gasol asked. It's a world of difference.

"I don't know. Before the game, he invited me to have dinner together. I refused. How do I know? I don't play center forward, so I didn't pay special attention to Yao's changes. You are the center forward. What happened today? Brother Yao is 4 out of 4, your stats are nothing compared to Brother Yao, you are not ashamed, he is an All-Star starter, you..." Li Tian was shameless and patted his face.

Use practical actions to tell Gasol that this is a slap in the face. Although he knows that Gasol can't beat Yao, but if he doesn't stimulate him, who knows what kind of potential he will inspire?In case that.
"Li, you are not familiar with Yao, we are still not good friends, why can't you help me, let me fight against Yao, it seems really difficult!" Gasol can only admit that this is the regular season, he thinks It doesn't matter, if it's the playoffs, Gasol will definitely not say this half-jokingly.

"Okay, Paul, let Odom and you team up to double-team Yao!" Phil had to consider Gasol's words. exposed again.

In the second quarter of the game, we haven't played 2 minutes yet.The hearts of the entire Lakers team were lifted up again, and Odom fell to the ground in pain while grabbing the ball.

Phil quickly called a timeout, and the team doctor was even quicker this time. He was worried that if Odom was injured again, the team would really be hanging.

"Lamar, how are you doing now?" The team doctor kept asking, waiting for Odom to give him an affirmative answer.

The same was true for the entire Lakers team, who gathered around them. As for how many points they were behind, it suddenly became less important, because in this game, if they lost the general Odom, it would really be worth the candle.

"I'm much better now, I just bumped a bit, let's move around first!" Odom said through gritted teeth.

The moment I hit it, it really hurt.

"It seems that Odom and Landry collided, and then Vujacic fouled, and Phil called a timeout. I don't know if Odom's injury is serious. If he is also injured and falls, the weak inside of the Lakers will be again. Losing an important player, I hope he doesn’t get hurt!” Director Zhang felt his heart ache when he saw Odom fall, the Lakers have already lost Bynum, if they lose Odom again, the team will really lose It's hard.

After a short communication, Odom stood up and can move normally.

However, for the sake of safety, Phil did not allow Odom to appear again, and he will not appear in this game. After the game is over, he will conduct a comprehensive inspection and then determine the next arrangement for him.In short, players are absolutely not allowed to play with injuries. The team's record in the regular season and the number one position cannot be shaken. There is no need to ruin the championship for a record.

After Odom retired from injury, the Lakers got even worse!

Phil had no choice but to let Sun Yue take the small forward position temporarily, but when he faced Mehta, he didn't have any chance to catch the ball at all.On the defensive end, the effect is also not good. Fortunately, Mehta's touch is average. During his defense, he was 2 for 0 from outside the three-point line.

Seeing Sun Yue's performance, Phil was very satisfied. He didn't flinch because he was facing the league's top forward defensive players.Every time he defended, he tried his best and never gave Mehta a chance to make an easy shot.

"Sun, you did a good job, you fought for Li, enough rest time!" Phil nodded.

Li Tian came on the field and replaced Sun Yue, who was at the small forward position.

He came on the stage full of passion and wanted to increase his speed, but Mosaic's defense did not give the Lakers a chance to speed up.In the second quarter of the game, the Lakers only scored 16 points, a full 11 points behind Mosaic.

In the first half, the team made 8 of 0 three-pointers and scored no points.

At halftime, the team returned to the locker room.

The Lakers at the moment feel cornered.

The team's housekeeping ability to win, this game did not play out at all.He failed to hit a single three-pointer, and Gasol's physical strength was rapidly depleted, and the effect of supporting him dropped significantly.

Looking at the somewhat dull away locker room, Kobe and Li Tian glanced at each other, both of them were dissatisfied with the team's performance.The team hasn't played such a game for a long time, and the teammates are a bit at a loss, not knowing what to do!
"Guys, we're only 11 down, who are we?"

"We are the Lakers, and we are the team to complete the defense!"

"It's so easy to be defeated, are you willing?"

"We only played half the game, we have plenty of chances!"

"Heads up guys, we didn't lose the game, it was only half time!"

"Believe in yourself, we can do it!"

Kobe and Li Tian, ​​in the locker room, spoke words of encouragement alternately.

Of course, the same is true in the home team locker room.

Adelman has been in a good mood recently, but he is still a little drifting.After losing McGrady, the team's record has also improved a lot, and it is possible at any time to become second only to the Lakers in the Western Conference.

Adelman thought in his heart that if he wins this game, the team's record will come to the second place in the Western Conference.Then his status will become higher and higher, and he will be an unshakable existence in the team.Next season, Tracy McGrady will come back healthy, and once again focus on the outside line, the inside players will be very beautiful when they think about it.

"Children, we played very well in the first half. I hope that in the second half, everyone can continue to maintain this state. Winning the Lakers, we will become second in the Western Conference, and we will go further in the playoffs." Adel Man, started to make big cakes for the players. This thing doesn't cost money, so there's no need to be stingy.

"In the next game, Yao, you continue to create opportunities for your teammates at the basket, protect the rebound, and do a good job of the second offense!" Adelman wants to change the tone of the team again. He wants to strengthen the outside offense, so that in the next In the season, when McGrady returns to health, the team's tactics do not need to be changed, and they can perfectly fit McGrady.

Made up his mind, Adelman made arrangements quickly.

Sitting in the corner of the locker room, Lowry looked at Adelman like a fool.The team has such a big advantage inside, but they still have to play outside. Yao Ming has lost weight and shortened his playing time this season.

Lowry feels that he is good on the outside, and doing so is more beneficial to himself, but for the team, it is really terrible. It will not only have a great impact on the team's record, but will also hit the team. The star's desire to win.This is an invisible existence, and it is also the point that has the greatest impact on the team.

He shook his head helplessly, closed his eyes, and began to think about something, envious of Li Tian in his heart.After going to the Lakers, Phil was able to use him boldly, and this season, he has also become the team's existence, second only to Kobe, and the real second leader of the team.

After the halftime break, the momentum of the two teams changed. The Lakers players all seemed to have been beaten to death; the Mosaic team, the outside players were very crazy, but the inside players were a little sluggish.

Adelman's words are hurting the team; Kobe and Li Tian's words are the most suitable medicine for the team.

40:51 The Lakers trailed by 11 points, and the second half officially started.

After losing Odom, the Lakers replaced Josh Powell and replaced him at the starting power forward position.

Both teams have changed their offensive strategies. Now that the team's outside shooting percentage has declined, the Lakers have begun to use the pick-and-roll to break through to the basket.

Kobe took the lead, frequently used Fisher to pick and roll, broke through the basket, and made a mid-range shot.

Mehta, who had been silent for half the time, couldn't bear the loneliness at the moment.

"Tianchao boy, when I'm serious, you can't hit a single three-pointer!" He provocatively said.

"Really? It's as if you made a three-pointer. Otherwise, let's make a bet, 10 yuan. It depends on the second half. Who can make a three-pointer. One is 10 yuan. Do you dare?" Li Tian was not used to hearing Mehta's provocation.

I'm not your father, so there's no need to spoil you all the time.Anyway, both of them missed a three-pointer in the first half, who can make a shot in the second half, and who knows?
"You" Mehta didn't know what to say. His provocation was to stimulate Li Tian and make him shoot more three-pointers. With a 0% shooting rate, as long as he took a three-pointer, it would hurt the team.

But the same is true for myself, and I didn't make a single three-pointer. Li Tian's words also turned against the army.

Throughout the first half of the game, Director Zhang was worried about the Lakers. He had never encountered such a situation in the live broadcast before. Before that, he had been giving advice to the Lakers' opponents. Now that the Lakers are behind, he I can't even think of a counterattack tactic.Two years ago, he would make a move and give the ball to Kobe; now his solution is to give the ball to Kobe and Li Tian, ​​and then it will be a perfect solution!
"Li Tian seems to be chatting with Mehta about something. I'm curious. What will they say?" In the live broadcast of this game, Director Zhang has no position. No matter who wins, he thinks it's good. Anyway, every team There are all Chinese players.

"No, shouldn't it be said that the Lakers played unreasonably?"

"How can you be reasonable, teacher? It's changed."

"What are you, you don't dare to bet, then shut your mouth!" Seeing Mehta's reaction, Li Tian was a little surprised, no, how could this guy admit cowardice, he would definitely be stimulated by himself.

"Don't dare to bet, what do I not dare to bet on, I will!" Although I feel a little guilty in my heart, I must not admit that I am cowardly.

"Brother Yao, you are a witness, I don't want anyone to play tricks on you!" Just as Yao Ming retreated and passed by, Li Tian pulled him over and said.

"Ah, alright!" Yao Ming was a little helpless. Is Mehta really out of his mind?

"Hurry up and separate. If you don't separate, I will blow the whistle!" The referee was anxious. Seeing Li Tian pull Dayao over, he was really worried. Because the Lakers were behind, Li Tian suddenly got injured Man, that's going to be a big deal.

"Don't worry about the referee, we are just having a friendly exchange!" Li Tian said to the referee with a smile, then turned and ran towards the frontcourt.

Dayao wanted to say something, but after thinking about it for a while, he decided to give up. He wanted to persuade Mehta, but it was as difficult as heaven!
Despite the bet, Li Tian was not in a hurry to shoot outside the three-point line.

After receiving a pass from Kobe, he dribbled continuously under his crotch and made a fake shot from outside the three-point line.

Seeing this, Mehta had just made a bet, and made up his mind that Li Tian must not be given the chance to make an outside shot, and his shot must be killed in the cradle.

No longer thinking about it, seeing Li Tian making a three-point shot, he immediately flew up.

Seeing the defense coming up, Li Tian gave the ball to Kobe on the same side, then dodged Mehta who was flying over, and made an air cut towards the basket.

Seeing that Li Tian had thrown off Mehta, Kobe didn't hesitate and returned the ball again.

Powell quickly moved up to a high position, helping Li Tian with the pick-and-roll, and not giving Mette, who was catching up behind him, any chance to interfere with the shot.

After catching the ball, he stopped and shot a jumper, and made a mid-range shot!
53:58 The point difference was only 5 points behind. Kobe and Li Tian held the ball continuously and rushed to the basket to score, gradually narrowing the point difference.Adelman on the sidelines was a little anxious. In the midfield, he insisted on focusing on the perimeter again, increasing the number of shots taken by perimeter players, and failed again.

"FUCK! Shit-like defense, why do you want to take off so easily, why!" Adelman was a little crazy. Mehta's defense is good, but once it hits the ground, it will be a big loophole!
Adelman kept yelling at Mehta, but it didn't work at all.

Li Tian's mid-range shot can be regarded as pulling the Lakers back from a dead end.The offensive and defensive ends of the team are finally back on track, and the cooperation between the inside and outside lines has finally come out!
"Ball!" After halftime, Mehta asked for the ball from Brooks. No matter what, he couldn't bear Li Tian's contempt for him just now.

Seeing Mehta above, how could Li Tian miss this opportunity.Immediately defend close to the body, throwing himself in front of Mehta, absolutely not allowing him to make a move easily.

After several fake moves, he didn't shake the defense!

"Touch!" There was a crisp sound.

"Hey, the Mosaic team is getting more and more dangerous. I don't know why. In the first half, Yao Ming played so well inside, but in the second half, he put the offense on the outside!" Director Zhang didn't understand. It's hard to limit Dayao's performance, he can't score, he can draw fouls, and he can also score.

"Yes, the Lakers have finally come out of a desperate situation. Adelman's coaching ability is worrying. I think Yao Ming will have no future if he stays in Marseille!" Yang Yi said.

This sentence expresses the aspirations of countless fans, and the Mosaic team has been doing mysterious operations.Good inside strength, just give up and let the outside players shoot wildly.

Really crazy!
