Coach: Coaching the Grizzlies at the beginning, playing the bantam

The Lakers' attack started again, with James holding the ball in his hands, his eyes like a cheetah, looking for the best time to attack.

The atmosphere on the field was extremely tense, and every move and every pass seemed to touch the hearts of the audience.

James' eyes finally fell on Davis in the interior, and he decided to pass the ball to this inside giant and let him challenge Cousins' defense.

There are profound tactical considerations behind this decision.

Davis had just been scored on by Cousins, which was undoubtedly a heavy blow to an inside player.

On the basketball court, dignity and honor are often more important than scores.

Davis needs to respond in the offensive rounds, prove his strength, and save some face for the Lakers.

On the other hand, while Davis' physique does not provide a clear advantage against Cousins, his speed is an important weapon.

The duel between the two is like a contest of speed and strength, with each winning and losing, and it is difficult to predict.

After receiving the ball, Davis decisively changed into a face-to-face offensive posture, and his right foot stepped out suddenly, like a beast ready to attack.

He used his speed to pass Cousins ​​and broke through to the basket.

This breakthrough was full of determination and strength, as if all the dissatisfaction and humiliation were to be poured out in this attack.

However, Cousins ​​is also an experienced veteran.

The moment Davis broke through, he immediately took a step back and stood in front of Davis.

His movements are quick and accurate, like an experienced boxer who can always make the most correct defensive posture at critical moments.

Davis did not panic because of this. He used his left foot as the axis and turned around with his body following Cousins.

His movements were smooth and natural, as if he was performing a graceful dance.

Then he jumped up and made a turnaround jump shot in the three-second zone.

This shot is full of power and skill, and is the result of Davis' many years of experience in the interior.

However, Cousins ​​seemed to have anticipated Davis's move.

After all, the two of them had been teammates for a while and knew each other's habits and movements very well.

Cousins ​​stretched out his arms and jumped high, barely touching the basketball with his fingertips, blocking Davis' turnaround jump shot.

This scene made the atmosphere on the field tense again.

Porzingis was quick-witted and immediately jumped up to grab the rebound.

His actions were quick and decisive, saving the Nets a valuable offensive opportunity.

Then, Porzingis passed the ball to Durant, and the Nets launched a counterattack.

During the fast break, Durant was closely guarded by James and did not have many good opportunities to shoot.

Brunson also failed to run out of open space, and the Nets' offense seemed to be in temporary trouble.

However, at this moment, Mitchell shook off Pope and successfully cut to the basket.

When Durant saw this, he immediately passed the ball.

After Mitchell received the ball, he was not at all flustered when facing James's defense.

He folded the lever directly in the air and avoided James' block.

This move was full of skill and courage, as if showing his basketball talent to the world.

Immediately afterwards, Mitchell counterattacked with an extremely difficult layup fast break, pushing the atmosphere on the court to a climax.

Mitchell's layup was like a heavy hammer, hitting the Lakers hard.

They originally thought that they could open up the situation with Davis's singles, but they didn't expect the Nets to respond so quickly.

The Lakers players looked at each other, knowing that this goal was not just a simple score, but also a heavy blow to the morale of the Lakers.

However, as an experienced team, they did not panic.

The Lakers' offense surged like a tide, and Davis once again challenged Cousins ​​in the low post.

His eyes were determined, like a hungry cheetah ready to pounce on its prey.

Davis held the ball, took a deep breath, then took a big step and rushed to the basket resolutely.

His movements were full of power and determination, as if he was pouring all his energy into this attack.

Seeing this, Cousins ​​immediately stepped forward to defend. He opened his arms and stood in front of Davis like a mountain.

However, Davis did not back down at all.

He pushed against Cousins ​​and forced his way to the basket.

There was a determined light in his eyes, as if saying: "This time, I must score the goal!"

However, the basketball did not fall into the basket as he wished.

Cousins' defense was like an iron wall, making Davis' attack futile.

But at this moment, a miracle happened.

While defending, Cousins ​​accidentally touched Davis' face with his arm, causing a foul.

This was Cousins' second foul in this quarter, and his expression immediately became somewhat embarrassed and annoyed.

Coach Lu Yong on the sidelines frowned slightly, obviously helpless about Cousins' performance.

He immediately called Claxton to his side, apparently preparing to let the young player play.

Domestic commentators Yang Yi and Wang Meng also took advantage of Davis' free throws to chat about the game.

Yang Yi's tone was a little surprised: "It was less than halfway through the first quarter, and Cousins ​​got into foul trouble. In this case, he had to leave the court to rest. This is undoubtedly a big blow to the Nets."

Wang Meng also nodded in agreement: "Yes, Cousins ​​is an important pillar of the Nets' interior. After he leaves the court, the Nets' interior defense will definitely be affected. However, Coach Lu Yong chose to let Claxton play, apparently wanting to improve the team's mobility to match up with Davis. After Claxton comes on the court, it can indeed enhance the team's mobility, but the offense will definitely decline. I don't know what impact this substitution will have on the Nets."

As Davis made the free throw, the game continued. It turned out that after Cousins ​​left the court, the Nets' indestructible offensive system did have an obvious gap.

This gap is like a crack that suddenly appears on a solid wall and cannot be ignored.

Although Claxton is highly mobile, his shooting ability is a flaw.

After taking over for Cousins, he was clearly not ready to completely fill the void left by Cousins.

Claxton ran hard on the field, trying to use his energy to drive the team's offense.

However, whenever he got the ball and prepared to attack, the flaw in his shooting ability was exposed.

His shooting action seemed a bit stiff, and the ball often bounced off the edge of the basket, failing to bring stable scoring to the team.

The Lakers obviously also noticed the changes in the Nets' offensive system and began to assist in defense and compress space more boldly, making it more difficult for Durant, Brunson and others to attack.

After Davis made both free throws, he looked back and saw that Durant had to force a mid-range shot against James' defense due to lack of space.

However, the consequence of the forced mid-range shot was that the basketball went out of the basket, and the backcourt rebound was easily protected by Davis.

This scene undoubtedly boosted the morale of the Lakers.

They began to attack and defend more aggressively, trying to seize this weakness of the Nets and overtake the score in one fell swoop.

Davis once again demonstrated his dominance in the interior, and when he played one-on-one against Clarkson, he had a clear tonnage advantage.

After asking for the ball under the basket, he forced a turn and played one-on-one, overcoming Claxton's defense, and slammed the ball into the basket with a powerful two-handed dunk.

This dunk was undoubtedly a turning point, making the entire audience excited.

The Lakers players also cheered and celebrated.

Davis also showed a satisfied smile, knowing that between this offense and defense, he had laid the foundation for the Lakers to overtake the score.

Davis scored consecutively on the court. When the fans at the scene saw this, they immediately burst into deafening cheers.

"Well done! Davis, you are our hero!" a Lakers fan shouted, his voice full of excitement and admiration. Around him, other fans also responded, shouting: "Kill the Nets! Let them know how powerful we are!"

The Lakers fans in the stands were in high spirits, shouting wildly, as if they wanted to pour all their passion and strength into this game.

Their faces were filled with excitement and anticipation, and every look was filled with desire for victory.

"Look, Davis is in such great shape! He is like a beast, no one can stop him!" a fan said excitedly, pointing at Davis on the field.

His friends also nodded in agreement, their eyes shining with endless admiration and respect for Davis.

"That's right, Davis is our leader! He always stands up at the critical moment and brings us victory!" another fan shouted excitedly, his voice full of determination and confidence, as if he had seen the dawn of the Lakers' victory.

At this moment, there was already some murderous intent in Durant's eyes.

After the offense and defense switched, Durant took the initiative to ask for the ball at the 45-degree angle on the right.

Brunson passed the ball immediately, knowing full well how destructive Durant was at the moment.

After Durant received the ball, he raised his hand to signal Claxton to come up for screen.

Claxton responded immediately, using his solid body to block James behind him.

Durant broke free from the defense, lowered his center of gravity, and quickly rushed to the basket.

His steps were steady and powerful, and every step seemed to step on the heartstrings of the Lakers.

The one guarding the Lakers' inside line was naturally Davis. When he saw Durant rushing towards him, a trace of solemnity flashed in his eyes.

However, when Durant saw Davis, instead of slowing down, he strode to the basket.

He jumped on one foot, leaped high, and dunked over Davis without any reason.

At this moment, time seemed to freeze, and everyone held their breath, waiting for that decisive moment.

Bang! A loud noise shook the entire Staples Center.

The originally bustling stadium suddenly became silent.

Countless fans held their heads, opened their mouths wide, and looked at the stadium in disbelief.

They couldn't believe that Durant had just dunked over Davis. The whole process was clean and neat without any delay.

After completing the dunk, Durant was like a beast that had released all its power.

He roared at the Lakers bench and looked at the Lakers fans with wide eyes.

At this moment, he really was like the god of death, and no one could stop him.

His eyes were full of confidence and dominance, as if foreshadowing victory in the game.

Davis was completely dazed at the moment and still hadn't recovered from being dunked over. There was a hint of confusion and unwillingness in his eyes. He couldn't accept that he was dunked over so easily by Durant.

The noise inside the Staples Center seemed to travel through time and space and flow directly into the studio.

Yang Yi and Wang Meng were sitting in front of the screen, their eyes fixed on the passionate and exciting arena.

At that moment, Durant's dunk was like a flash of lightning, cutting through the night sky and igniting the enthusiasm in their hearts.

"Wow!" Yang Yi couldn't help but cheer loudly, his voice full of shock and excitement, "Did you see that? Durant's shot just now was simply amazing!" He clenched his hands tightly together, as if to stifle the shock that overflowed from the screen.

Wang Meng also had an expression of disbelief on his face, his eyes widened, as if he wanted to engrave that moment forever in his heart. "Yes, Yang Yi, I couldn't believe my eyes. Durant's dunk was a blatant provocation to Davis, and a shocking blow to the entire Lakers team!" His voice was full of admiration and awe for Durant's dunk.

Yang Yi nodded, his eyes flashing with his love for basketball and endless aftertaste of Durant's dunk. "Yes, Durant's dunk was not only a display of skill and strength, but also a manifestation of his inner fighting spirit and determination. He was like a hungry cheetah that found its prey and pounced on it without hesitation."

Wang Meng took a deep breath and tried to calm his excitement, but the shock came like a tidal wave. "Yes, Durant's dunk was simply an art on the basketball court, as if every detail had been carefully carved by him. He is really a genius, a death god on the basketball court!"

Yang Yi smiled, his eyes full of admiration for Durant. "Yes, Durant is the player who can stand up at the critical moment and change the trend of the game by himself. He is a leader, a leader who can lead the team to victory."

Wang Meng nodded, "Yes, Durant proved his strength and fighting spirit with his actions, and also let us see the unyielding side of the Nets."

The atmosphere in the studio was still warm and enthusiastic. Yang Yi and Wang Meng seemed to be infected by Durant's dunk and were filled with excitement.

Yang Yi's voice was filled with emotion, "Sometimes, a player's move can make the entire basketball world crazy. Just like Jordan's flying dunk and Kobe's buzzer-beating three-pointer. And today, Durant's dunk also showed us his greatness and uniqueness." (End of this chapter)
