The game restarted, and the Lakers were awarded two free throws and possession.
Kobe calmly sank both free throws.
23:30!!
The Lakers are down by 7 points.
The Lakers still had possession of the ball. Vujacic went to the sidelines to inbound the ball. This kind of inbound doesn't require much skill. You just need to throw it towards Wei Guo and throw it as high as possible so that only Wei Guo can catch it. Then it's unlikely to be a mistake.
While Wei Guo received the ball...
Kobe easily shook off Posey's tight defense and reached the three-point line. Wei Guo jumped and slapped the ball with a backhand, and it was in Kobe's hands.
Gentry laughed and said, "That's a badminton move... Did Brother Wei retire so early because he wanted to switch to badminton?"
Because Wei Guo passed the ball too quickly, Posey didn't have time to cover when Kobe received it, giving Kobe an open shot opportunity, which Kobe decisively took.
"Whoosh!!!"
The basketball went into the net.
26:30!!
The Lakers are down by 4 points.
After scoring 5 points in one possession, Rivers realized that Tony Allen's irrationality had cost the Celtics dearly. Not only was the point difference narrowed, but the Black Mamba started to show his true colors... and the Guardian also unleashed his big sword.
......
"Celtics call a timeout!"
......
Even with a lead, Rivers still called a timeout.
I'm afraid the Lakers might suddenly gain momentum...
The Celtics' Big Three only rested for two minutes before they were likely to return to the court, which is different from Rivers' pre-game plan that each player would play for about 40 minutes.
"Tony didn't do it on purpose... he was just playing too seriously on defense!"
Rivers first defended Tony Allen, then paused and continued, "But he was treated unfairly and was ejected. Everyone is fighting for the championship, so... remember Tony's comeback and win this game."
The effect of subtly shifting the focus is also quite good!
The players were indeed as excited as if they had been injected with stimulants, all eager to get started, just waiting for Rivers' order to charge up and take on the Lakers.
actually...
The referees' calls tonight were somewhat biased towards the Celtics. Several times when Wei Guo made layups, Celtics players pulled him, but the referees did not call fouls. On the contrary, in the first quarter, Odom made a normal defensive play and did not touch Ray Allen, but was called for a foul, giving Ray Allen three free throws.
Lakers bench.
The team doctor still examined Kobe; being hit in the throat with an arm could have easily caused him to suffocate, which is why Kobe was furious.
......
The timeout has ended, and the game has resumed.
The Celtics' Big Three returned to the court, while the Lakers' lineup remained unchanged, with Odom and Gasol still resting on the bench.
Celtics on offense...
Ray Allen received the pass, tapped Vujacic, stepped back to the three-point line, and shot.
Garnett drives to the basket...
The moment the basketball bounced off the rim, Garnett slammed it home and scored. He even arrogantly tugged at the rim, truly displaying the aura of the peak Wolf King.
Before Wei Guo entered the league, Garnett had scored 20+10 for nine consecutive seasons and had more than 5 assists in six other seasons. Garnett was the first player in league history to achieve this six-season streak of 20+10+5. Of course... this record was broken by Wei Guo, who achieved 20+10+5 for seven consecutive seasons.
Or rather...
Wei Guo achieved 30+10+5 for seven consecutive seasons, a record that is unlikely to be broken by anyone.
Lakers on offense!
Paul has the ball at the top of the key, Kobe is on the right side of the three-point line, and Wei Guo is under the basket. This is a classic tactic called the triangle offense!
If the Zen master were...
He felt that these three were in no way inferior to the Bulls' original trio.
The most important aspect of the triangle offense is having a super scorer, and here we have two. After Paul draws the defense, he passes the ball to Kobe. Kobe cuts to the basket and then passes the ball to Weiguo. Weiguo turns and passes between Garnett and PJ Brown, hooking the ball with a reverse hook.
"Whoosh!!!"
The basketball went into the net.
28:32!!
The Lakers are still down by 4 points.
Rivers was very frustrated. In his view, every tactic of the Lakers was flawless. Normally, head coaches are familiar with their own tactical systems, but Gentry is different. His tactics with the Nets were close to the Princeton offense, and his tactics with the Nets were the run-and-gun offense. When he came to the Lakers, he switched to the triangle offense.
seem...
This person has mastered all basketball tactics and can adapt them to different situations to find the most suitable tactics for the team.
......
Every Celtics possession captivated the hearts of the fans in the arena.
In short, I'm nervous...
If the Celtics fail to score on just two or three possessions, the Lakers could overtake them. If they go into the second half trailing, things will get really bad. The Lakers' specialty is to blow the game away in the third quarter.
Celtics on offense!
Pierce was one-on-one with Kobe, but his turnaround shot missed. Just as the referee was about to blow the whistle, he met Wei Guo's cold gaze and suddenly felt like his lung capacity was insufficient, and he would get a stitch if he blew the whistle again.
Wei Guo grabbed the defensive rebound...
Having played basketball for seven years, Wei Guo knew exactly how to kill someone psychologically. He didn't pass the ball to Paul, dodged Pierce's steal, dribbled for two steps, and before even crossing half-court, he pulled up for a jump shot.
There are still many 'shooting runes'...
Let the Celtics experience the destructive power of Wei Ge.
"Whoosh!!!"
The basketball went into the net.
31:32!!
The Lakers are down by one point.
"Oh~No~~~"
Many fans cried out in despair!
If the Celtics start playing like this, they will have absolutely no hope.
The Celtics players who were on defense had just run to the three-point line when they looked up and saw the basketball catch up and fall into the basket.
Kobe excitedly went up and gave him a high five, "Nice!"
If this shot doesn't go in, it will be a slap in the face for Wei Guo; but if it does go in, it will demoralize the Celtics. It's like killing someone by attacking their spirit.
Rivers silently vowed that this attack had to go in. If the Lakers defended this attack and Wei Guo hit another long-range three-pointer in the transition, the score would be reversed, which would become the turning point of the game. The importance of this attack was self-evident.
They can no longer patiently execute tactics.
Pierce might have been safer to take a one-on-one shot, but even when he drove into the paint against Kobe, he couldn't find any openings and was on the verge of a turnover... Pierce hastily passed the ball to Ray Allen.
Ray Allen also didn't get a shot off...
Garnett ran to the perimeter, and Ray Allen simply passed the ball back inside to Rondo, who caught the ball and made a layup but missed!
It's okay if you miss a shot!
Rondo jumped over Bynum to grab the offensive rebound and then scored on a layup.
"Oh~"
The commentator exclaimed excitedly, "That's so tough! That's the Boston spirit!"
Even the legendary players on the sidelines couldn't help but cheer for Rondo, with Gentry quipping, "Is this supposed to be a center?"
