runaway point guard

Chapter 217 We Will Come Back

Throughout the first quarter, the Hornets were repelled by the Lakers in the end.

However, Zhong Yu's dunk remained in everyone's minds.

Not to say how beautiful that dunk is, but his dunk is so rare, it can even be said that he has never seen it before.

However, the Lakers are still a huge enemy ahead of the Hornets, and they still can't directly cross their own shortcomings to attack the vulnerable parts of the Lakers.

Under such circumstances, the second quarter of the game is about to begin.

When Zhong Yu saw Scarlett who had just rushed into the stadium just now, she had a kind and warm feeling, after all, she is now his own woman.

Waved at her, and then, the Hornets' substitute and the Lakers' substitute were on the bar.

The quality of the Hornets' bench and the depth of the bench are naturally far inferior to the Lakers. This is after the rise of Zhong Yu. The Hornets' guard line has a much stronger bench lineup, otherwise their bench lineup will be even weaker.

Therefore, the Hornets' bench was beaten by the Lakers, and the shit was about to come out.

This is a very tragic game, because the Lakers really played their own strength, and the good performance of the substitute players completely established the Lakers' lead over the Hornets.

In the middle of the second quarter, the Hornets and the Lakers scored 38:30, and the Hornets trailed by eight points.

As soon as Zhong Yu entered the field, the players in the audience booed strongly.

Although the current Hornets may not have much hope of a comeback, Zhong Yu always makes people feel a kind of inexplicable worry when he is on the court.

Worried that he would explode suddenly and deal a fatal blow to the Lakers.

But it is true that Zhong Yu has such strength. Just after playing, he forcibly broke through the Lakers' defense.In the chasing and interception of several Lakers, he directly broke into the depth of the inside line, then tore through the opponent's final defense, and directly scored two points.

Zhong Yu's breakthrough immediately made the Lakers feel as if they had just woken up from a dream. They stepped up their defense against Zhong Yu one after another, and they could no longer let him score at will like that.

Next, Zhong Yu was silent for a while, but with 3 minutes left in the second quarter, he broke through again, but this time the Lakers failed to let him enter the deepest place.

But Zhong Yu caused Gasol's foul, then made two free throws and scored two more points.

However, the Hornets in this quarter have already begun to collapse, and their overall team strength is not the opponent of the Lakers.

The Lakers set up an offensive fort against them, and at the same time blocked them in every possible way defensively.However, back to the offensive end, the Hornets' pick-and-roll, after being surrounded by layers of the Lakers, is also a bit full of loopholes.

The first half of the game is over!The final score between the two sides was 50:41. The Hornets recovered a few points, but they still trailed the Lakers by 9 points into the second half.At this time, everyone still knows that the Hornets have basically lost hope of entering the playoffs.

In the locker room, Zhong Yu had a bit of a headache. Throughout the first half, he scored 17 points, but this did not help the Hornets much. The Hornets are still behind, and the situation is not good for them It's getting worse.

The phone buzzed and vibrated in the locker, and when she opened it, it was Scarlett's: "Zhong Yu, no matter what the result is, be yourself."

At this time, he didn't know what to say. Perhaps, he felt touched, and there were other things, such as warmth.He put away the basketball and leaned his head against the locker door.

"Guys, it's the final desperate time." Scott said with a stern face: "I can tell you unequivocally that the hope of winning this game is very slim for us. But even so, we I won't give up...never give up."

"Won't give up." Many people are muttering, from the big team at the beginning of the season, to the dark horse in the regular season before the playoffs, and then they stabbed the Mavericks, pulled out the Spurs, and entered the Western Conference Finals .

In this game, although they knew that they had little hope, they still had to give it their all.

Then, the second half begins!

Zhong Yu received a pass as soon as he entered the field, and it was still Kobe who defended him.

Kobe didn't say a word, but he lowered his center of gravity and tried to spread the defensive range in front of Zhong Yu.As long as he is within this defensive range, it will be very difficult for Zhong Yu to pass him directly.

Zhong Yu's current third area's first superposition effect has not yet been obtained, which makes his breakthrough must come to the first area to exert its greatest power.

When the superposition effect of the third area is brought into play, at that time, the first area, the second area, and the third area can be connected into one piece.

At that time, Zhong Yu's combat power will increase without limit.

At this time, Zhong Yu used his back to come to Kobe, and then suddenly turned around, facing Kobe.The moment Kobe was about to react defensively, Zhong Yu suddenly made a change of direction from his crotch, and passed by Kobe's left.

Although it is said that Kobe's defense is very good, but the time to really defend Zhong Yu is not much.

As soon as Zhong Yu broke through, he came to a place close to the edge of the first area and shot a jumper.

The fadeaway jumper had just been shot, and Kobe's left hand, which was about to block the shot, also arrived. However, his left hand was too late after all, and Zhong Yu hit a jumper near the high post.

Then, the Lakers attacked a few times, and their offensive efficiency finally dropped a bit.

Then, the basketball came into Zhong Yu's hands again. He approached Kobe and came to the first area. At this time, West came up and stopped Zhong Yu and Kobe, blocking his left side.At this time, what West wanted was to let Zhong Yu break into the inside line directly.

However, Zhong Yu could feel that the insiders of the Lakers had set up a pocket for him. If he got in, it was very likely that he would turn his back on his back and be covered by others.

Therefore, he felt that it was not realistic to enter the inside line at this moment, so he bypassed West and directly exited the outside line.

Kobe also thought that Zhong Yu might go straight to the inside, so he went to defend, but he made a mistake in his judgment. Zhong Yu had just bypassed West just now, and immediately retreated, making an emergency stop outside the three-point line.

After the emergency stop, although Kobe chased after him, Zhong Yu still made a move.

Kobe wanted to catch up with Zhong Yu, but it was too late. Moreover, Zhong Yu's jumper also crashed into the hoop directly after an elegant arc.

Another three points!

Zhong Yu was making his own efforts. Next, the Lakers succeeded in attacking several times, but the Hornets themselves failed.At this time, after halftime, Paul directly used his crotch to control the ball, passed the old fish, then hit Odom with a small hit, and after shaking him, he directly made a fadeaway jumper.

"Shua!" Paul hit a jumper. At this moment, he was also a little anxious and prepared to rely on his own scoring.

As a result, the Hornets' backcourt combination has now been transformed into two offensive sharp spears, and they have become two bee stingers. No one can deny the strength of these two guys.

Even in terms of offense, both of them are very sharp, shuttling inside and outside the line like fish swimming in the ocean.

Moreover, their jump shot percentage is very high.At this time, Paul hit a jumper on the back. Then, in the next attack of the Hornets, Zhong Yu and Paul cooperated again. Zhong Yu found a gap and hit a jumper at a 45-degree angle on the left wing.

Scored two points again.

Paul and Zhong Yu scored consecutively afterwards, using different methods to wreak havoc on the inside and outside of the Lakers.However, with such a score, the energy that can be obtained is very limited after all.

Their outburst helped the Hornets play a 12-6 spurt and recover 6 points. However, the Lakers locked the outside and inside again, and Zhong Yu and Paul's inside and outside jumpers were hindered.

The Lakers' triangle offense once again began to show its peak.

Gasol and Kobe have become the two corners of the interior and exterior. Both of them can create scoring opportunities for each other. In such an offensive system, the Hornets basically have nothing to do with the Lakers.

Therefore, the third quarter of the game finally entered the final quarter with a score of 76:68.

The Hornets are still 8 points behind the opponent. These 8 points, placed in the last quarter of the playoffs, are not easy to chase.

Therefore, the game in the fourth quarter began under extremely unfavorable conditions for the Hornets.

The Hornets are still preparing to use a variety of pick-and-rolls to score, while the Lakers remain unchanged, that is, use the inside to strengthen offense and defense, and use the triangle offense to truly attack.

In this way, the score situation of the two teams is also maintained in a state where the Hornets are at a disadvantage.

In the 5th minute, the score was 88:75, and the Hornets were 13 points behind.At this time, Zhong Yu went directly to the inside line, and at the last moment before the opponent had time to block it together, a basket came.

Basketball hit.

At this moment, Zhong Yu's scoring also exploded crazily.

Then, the two teams began to transform offense and defense again. The Lakers' shooting percentage became higher and higher, and the Lakers' style of play became more and more solid.

As for the Hornets, the shooting percentage has dropped because the opposing defense has strengthened.

In the 8th minute, Zhong Yu hit a three-pointer from the outside. The score was 95:80. The Hornets trailed by 15 points. After that, in the No. 11 minute, Zhong Yu forced a breakthrough, causing Gasol to foul and directly scored a three-pointer.

The score was 104:87, and the Hornets were basically gone.

After Zhong Yu made a free throw, the Hornets recovered a three-pointer, but time was running out.

Then, Zhong Yu still made a three-pointer from the outside, recovering the score a bit...but the time for the end of the game was getting less and less.

Finally, the final whistle sounded!The score was fixed at 106:98, and the Hornets trailed their opponents by 8 points, ending the season's journey.

In this season's playoffs, the Hornets swept the Mavericks 4:0 and the Spurs 4:1, but lost to the Lakers 3:4 in the Western Conference Finals.

However, looking at the bright red scoreboard, Zhong Yu had only one thought in his mind——

we will be back.
