The Celtics and the Hawks reached the seventh game, and the two teams tied 3-3, and they will have a tiebreaker tomorrow.

No one would have thought that the Celtics, known as the Lakers' biggest opponent, would encounter such great trouble in the first round.

The fans of Staples Arena continued to cheer.

Fans also feel that the Lakers are getting closer to the championship, and this year Kobe has received the help he has always hoped for.

Gasol and Zhou Hang, the two men's helpers from inside and outside, made the Lakers' strength unprecedentedly powerful.

Post-match press release.

Sloan said of the team's performance: "Our players tried their best, we tried to cause some trouble for them on the defensive end, but unfortunately, we didn't succeed, their scores were still easy, it was not our pace, and it didn't surprise me that we lost the game."

The reporter asked: "How do you adjust to ensure the victory of the game in the next game?"

Sloan admitted: "I don't know."

The Lakers are now significantly stronger than the Jazz, and it is really difficult for them to win.

Sloan was not satisfied with the performance of the Jazz, but what could he do if he was not satisfied?

There were few misjudgments and not many controversial balls, but a complete defeat in hard power.

Sloan really doesn't know how to adjust next.

The Jazz's coaching staff has to work overtime tonight.

The Lakers.

The Zen master said to the reporter with a calm and gentle look: "We have achieved the level we should have, and everyone's performance is great."

Then the Zen master praised Zhou Hang and Kobe in a sensible way, saying that the two were the keys to the Lakers' victory.

.........

After the Lakers and Jazz game ended, the results of another Western Conference semi-finals were also released.

The Spurs lost to the New Orleans Hornets 82-101 away. Chris Paul contributed 17 points, 13 assists and 4 steals, and David West scored 30 points and 9 rebounds.

Under Paul's tandem, the Hornets scored in double digits.

On the Spurs, Duncan performed poorly, only scoring 5 points, 3 rebounds, 2 assists and 3 steals.

The Hornets' inside lineman Tyson Chandler restricted Duncan's performance very well, making Duncan very uncomfortable.

No one expected Tyson Chandler's inside frame protection to be so good.

Another group of Eastern Conference semi-finals matchups, with the Pistons defeating the Orlando Magic 91-72.

The two teams fought hard to defend, and the pace was quite slow.

Lewis, Howard and Tkoglu scored 18 points, 18 points and 12 points respectively.

Except for these three, no one in Magic scored in double digits.

Under the leadership of former FMVP Billups, the Pistons regained their iron-blooded defense and played the rhythm they liked.

The Pistons' starting five players scored in double digits!

......

In other groups of games, they are all fighting hard to defend, and only the Lakers and Jazz are fighting against each other.

In this era, offense is more attractive than defense.

Zhou Hang’s 40+ is also the best personal data of stars today.

It was natural that Zhou Hang made the headlines.

"The playoff scorer Zhou Hang continues to score points."

"The Iron Blood Jazz is powerless to stop the Five-Star Lakers!"

"The Lakers Battleship has set sail!"

"Zhou Hang's three-pointer is super good, and the Lakers system makes him feel like a fish in water."

"Bryant got two powerful helpers, and he has the opportunity to prove himself again."

"Bryant's 4th championship!"

As the playoffs gradually deepen, Zhou Hang's performance is constantly conquering those fans watching the game.

This game is not very magical, but it is a proof of Zhou Hang's stable performance.

In the first round of the game, it can be said that the Nuggets did not have defense, and Zhou Hang's score was very high and impressive, but for the Jazz, it cannot be said that they did not have defense. They are a team that is famous for their defense.

But under Zhou Hang's outside firepower, the Jazz's defense became vulnerable.

With just one game, public opinion basically believes that the Jazz have no possibility of defeating the Lakers in the series.

Of course, for Zhou Hang himself, he would not look at the outside world's prediction of how high the Lakers' winning rate is.

The first game of the playoffs is just played, and you can never underestimate your opponent, which is very important.

The strength of the Celtics and the Hawks next door is not the fundamental reason for the tiebreak.

The Celtics won the first two games too easily, which led to their relaxation after the start of G3, and finally let the Hawks beat the momentum and scored the big score back.

Zhou Hang is now alert to the lessons learned by the Celtics.

Of course, Zhou Hang was also vigilant and maintained confidence.

Zhou Hang has gone through a season of training and knows how strong he is now.

His current level is the superstar level, but he has always been considered a role player.

This will make the outside world often think that he performs at a higher level.

The Jazz's defense is indeed good, but it is not enough for Zhou Hang.

The existence of Lakers Kobe, Gasol and others makes the Jazz unable to maintain more defensive targeting against Zhou Hang, which makes Zhou Hang's offense look strong.

Another reason why Zhou Hang maintains confidence is that his defensive ability is improved.

Although Delong, who faced Zhou Hang, had great personal data, most of the scores were not obtained by facing Zhou Hang, but by using the misalignment after the pick-and-roll to hit the big man.

Delong did not dare to play Zhou Hang alone, and Zhou Hang also cut off Delong's connection with his teammates to a certain extent.

The assist does not mean that Zhou Hang did not do well in defending and passing the ball.

This is also the reason why Delong got 30+10 data, but there was no voice criticizing Zhou Hang for his poor defense.

Not only Delong is not good at playing Zhou Hang alone, but even Boozer's misalignment is not delicious Zhou Hang, which leads to Delong often having to attack by himself.

Jazz fans can see how much Boozer struggles when facing Zhou Hang.

This is also an aspect that bothers Sloan.

After the pick-and-roll, Boozer could not take Zhou Hang's misalignment, which caused the Jazz's offense to be powered off.

This made them unable to respond to the Lakers' offense immediately.

At the end of G1, one day later.

The G2 game started again at Staples Stadium.

Two TNT's commentators came to the scene to comment.

Barkley resisted the noisy voice at the scene and said: "The Lakers won too easily in the last game. Zhou Hang showed his power on both offense and defense. He often replaced Kobe as the Lakers' first tactical offensive choice now."

Smith said: "Yes, Zhou Hang's arrival shared the pressure of Kobe, and Kobe's efficiency on the outside has also improved. This is a good thing for the Lakers. Their overall offense has become very terrifying."

Barkley said: "Dron needs to drive the Jazz's entire team and cannot always score by himself. In this way, his data will be good, but the Jazz can't win a game."

"Yes, if the situation does not improve in this game, there will be no suspense in this series."

On the other side of CCTV.

Zhang Weiping said: "Zhou Hang's performance is becoming more and more important to the Lakers, and he is becoming an indispensable part of the Lakers."
