Chapter 172
the next day.
7pm.
Inside the Grizzlies home arena.
The third match between the Lakers and the Grizzlies will begin in half an hour. The two teams are actively warming up, and the Lakers, who have had two days of rest, are full of energy and want to defeat the Grizzlies with outstanding performance again.
At this time, inside the NBA broadcast room of Tengxun Sports.
Director Zhang said:"Now the Lakers have defeated the Warriors and promoted to the first place in the league with their toughness. The Grizzlies directly interrupted the Lakers' winning streak for the first time against the Lakers.
And it was the referee who sent Su Hao out to take advantage of it.
Of course. In the second game, because of the referee's black call in the first match, the Lakers performed extremely well and defeated the Grizzlies in just one quarter.
Now the Lakers can say that they are very motivated to beat the Grizzlies!"
Wang Meng then added:"That's not the case. Well, I was still the one to commentate on the second game, and now it’s me who will clock out for the third game, right?" After the warm-up, Su Hao sat on the bench and drank some water and said,"I’m really looking forward to it. As for the referees in this game, I really hope they can beat them in a single quarter."
"Hahaha, this is not good, the Grizzlies are innocent, their home referee deserves it! It's a pity that we can't"attack" the referee."
Kobe Bryant sat next to Su Hao and said with a smile.
"If you go against the referee, you will definitely suffer a loss! But you must show that you are not someone to be bullied."
The game is about to begin, and the two teams will start heading to the"battlefield."
Los Angeles Lakers: point guard Su Hao, shooting guard Kobe Bryant, shooting guard Clarkson, power forward Randle, center Jokic.
Memphis Grizzlies: point guard Conley, shooting guard Tony Allen, small forward Barnes, power forward Randolph, and center Gasol competed for the ball. Jokic faced his own template and gradually became stronger. , and are also continuing to pursue templates.
"Snapped……"
Jokic and Gasol's arms intertwined, and Jokic touched the ball first, which fell behind him and was picked up by Su Hao, who organized the first attack.
"Bang bang……"
Su Hao brought the ball to the top of the left arc, and after seeing everyone in position, he started to play one-on-one.
Tony Allen came forward to defend Su Hao as usual.
After learning that Su Hao really had a mid-range shot, he did not choose to give him any space, but used his tight defense to approach Su Hao.
Su Hao rushed directly to the right side, and pushed Tony Allen away with his body.
"shit……"
Tony Allen shouted at Su Hao, and when Su Hao was about to make a layup, he slapped Su Hao's hand from behind, interrupting his attack.
"Beep……"
The referee blows the whistle.
Su Hao stood on the free throw line and made two free throws.
I don't feel any dissatisfaction with Tony Allen's foul.
Su Hao took the lead and won the first attack.
Conley brought the ball to the frontcourt, and Su Hao was still the main defender. As the dpoy, Su Hao made Conley feel a strong sense of oppression.
It seems that Su Hao has put DPOY on his head, and it is not that easy to break through.
Gasol quickly stepped forward to pick and roll, and Jokic stepped forward to cover Conley's offense, and gradually followed him as he retreated.
Small to hit big is also a basic operation of a point guard. Just when Conley retreated, he changed his body from left hand to right and took one step past the slow-moving Jokic.
Conley quickly entered the penalty area and faced Randall, who was about to defend, and scored with a silky throw.
Lakers ball.
Kobe slowly brought him over, and when facing Conley's defense from the high post on the right, he chose to play with his back. Barnes made up the defense on the flank, preparing to double-team.
Upon seeing this, Kobe Bryant quickly distributed the ball to Jokic who was supporting Jokic in the low post.
The moment he caught the ball, Su Hao hit the ground again and moved out.
The probing step shook Tony Allen who was following him, threw him off his right side and sprinted forward.
Facing Randolph's defense inside, he blocked Su Hao's offensive line.
Su Hao took the initiative and kicked off the ground. Randolph also jumped up with all his strength, and the two fought in the air.
The collision between the two muscles was extremely tough, but Su Hao withstood the pressure and used his"indestructible" body to aim at the backboard and score the ball.
"A tough moment! This shot was really extreme, but it seemed like only Su Hao could do it."
"How can any point guard fight against the inside like this?"
In the next attack, Su Hao tore through Tony Allen's defense in one step and broke into the inside again.
Tony Allen seemed to know exactly which direction Su Hao would break out, but he just couldn't prevent it. He couldn't do it at this speed. Follow up.
Randolph once again positioned himself on the inside, standing with his hands crossed, trying to make an offensive foul from Su Hao.
Su Hao's eyes narrowed, and his speed did not slow down at all. He continued to penetrate the inside and stood still. Randolph still chose to kick off the ground.
Faced with this kind of defense, the only way was... to dunk!
Su Hao kicked off the ground and flew up in the air, raising his long arms. Randolph looked up at Fei. Su Hao got up and was stunned for a moment.
"boom……"
Su Hao dunked with one hand and hung under the basket. He didn't dare to fall down, for fear of stepping on Randolph under the basket.
At this time, Randolph was holding his head, fearing that Su Hao would fall and hit him.
"Oh my god...Su Hao dodges the offensive foul that Randolph wants to make by dunking over him. What a rough and good method!"
Then all the Lakers players got excited. It was the same in the second game. All the players exerted their strength in a single quarter to break the game.
This time was the same. All the players exerted their strength, but the excellent defense prepared by the Grizzlies was still not as embarrassing as the last time.
The offense remained constipated, and the defense used all its enthusiasm to limit their scoring.
However, Su Hao and his team were the only ones who could not limit them at all.
As a result, at the end of the single quarter, the Lakers were leading by as many as 13 points, and they were about to break the game in a single quarter.
Coach Zhang was very excited when he saw it.
"The Lakers really gained momentum as soon as they beat the Grizzlies, leading by 13 points in a single quarter. If this continues, will this showdown have to be clocked out at halftime?!
It can be seen how hard the Grizzlies worked on offense and defense in this quarter, but the Lakers are stronger, and sometimes it is a duel between talents. There is still a big gap.
Therefore, it is normal for the Lakers to draw the score."
"Yes, it's the best thing not to be clocked out in one quarter. Looking at the faces of the Grizzlies fans in the auditorium, I really can't even laugh! Wang
Meng said.
In the Grizzlies auditorium, the faces of the fans were all green. Seeing the Lakers was like seeing the devil, not giving them any hope.
"Could it be that... they want the referee to give them hope?!"
Su Hao still can't forget the fact that the referee acted like a monster last time and caused them to lose the game.
"Two days off doesn't mean we can clock out in a single quarter! Try your best and clock out in halftime!"
Kobe laughed out loud, causing the whole team to laugh too.
