Chapter 555: 554: Copy the miracle? (Seeking the moon(2/3)
Before the game started, the ratings hit a new high.
For Lakers fans, the team may reach the West today.
For Clippers fans, today is a win or go home game.
Neither fans of both sides missed the game.
As soon as they entered the court, the fans could feel a sense of murderous aura.
Scarlett was wearing hi-shirts on the sidelines, which was used to use all the human body plugins on the sidelines, which shows how intense the game will be.
However, in this serious atmosphere, Li Ang actually took everyone to dance an extremely silly dance before the game!
Duncan didn't participate on the surface, but in fact he was shaking on the bench more than anyone else.
The Zen master laughed. It is useless to use this method to cover up your nervousness.
However, Li Ang’s purpose was not to cover up his nervousness, he wanted to bet on Xiao Du’s badge.
If you can obtain the attribute enhancement, today's game will be safer.
But after jumping for a long time, I didn’t make a gamble!
This badge is as unreliable as Xiao Du himself.
Yes, 0 of 11 shots in the playoffs at halftime is enough to show the probability of this badge being triggered.
Now, there is no Avenger badge or Xiao Du badge, Li Ang really has to rely on himself.
The game is about to begin, and neither side has changed its formation.
The camera gave Li Ang and Kobe a close-up, both of them just stared forward seriously, waiting for the beginning of the war.
"Li Ang is very likely to end his entire season after the 48-minute game. 72 wins. If the MVP loses, these things will be shattered. Li Ang will be under a lot of pressure at this time!"
"There is no doubt that Li Ang will fight hard today. But he has always been a person who can turn decay into magic. Today, let's look forward to his performance."
Li Ang was actually a little nervous. If he really lost today, it would be difficult for him to turn over again.
If he lost to Kobe in the playoffs for two consecutive years, Li Ang would not be the greatest player of this era, and at most he could only be one of the greatest.
However, the moment the referee whistle sounded, the tension in Li Ang's heart completely disappeared.
At this moment, he only had the game in his heart!
At the beginning of the game, Bynum continued to compete for the first attack.
As soon as he came up, Kobe gave Li Ang a warning.
Kobe broke through Li Ang with the ball, but Li Ang did not lose his position, but Kobe pushed Li Ang hard while rushing forward, pushing Li Ang away, gaining shooting space.
After pushing Li Ang away, Kobe immediately stopped and jumped to shoot.
Although Li Ang pounced on it immediately, it was too late.
The basketball went over Li Ang's fingertips and fell straight into the net, and Kobe took the lead!
This kind of small push move will probably be called an offensive foul in the regular season.
But in this round of competition, this is already the norm.
Li Ang estimated that Stern had poached many referees from the UFC.
It seems that the Lakers are still strong, and Kobe is still strong.
In the last game, he just scored a goal on Li Ang's head at a critical moment. Today, he seemed to want to get into that rhythm as soon as he got up.
The Lakers played so imposingly in the first attack, which made the Clippers fans at the scene somewhat disappointed.
The only thing the Clippers can compete with the Lakers is defense because of offense.
Thinking of this, Clippers fans began to feel heartbroken.
The Clippers' offense later, the scene will definitely be terrible again.
Seeing that Li Ang did not go up to hold the ball, Kobe thought Li Ang was going to play an off-ball attack today.
However, off-ball attack is useless.
Because Ariza's off-ball defense against Li Ang was almost indecisive.
Moreover, the output of this method of off-ball attack is limited.
Unless you are Thompson who can shine with Buddha light at any time, it will be difficult to completely kill the game by taking off the ball.
Those who rely on off-ball offense to score crazy points are the only ones who have been playing in Thompson and Reggie Miller in history.
Ariza hugged Li Ang directly, while Li Ang raised his arms high and hoped to attract the referee's attention.
In fact, the referee has been paying attention.
But paying attention is different from blowing the whistle.
In this way, Li Ang wanted to get rid of Ariza, but Ariza never let go. So, Li Ang and Ariza hugged each other and circled around the court, like dancing a social dance.
The referee shook his head, Li Ang, you haven't danced enough just now!
This is the defensive intensity of the Lakers Li Ang. Under the referee's dictator's quotation standard, it is simply not feasible to play without the ball.
However, Li Ang’s method is not to attack without a ball.
Seeing that the referee was indifferent, Li Ang pushed Ariza away and then rushed to the three-point line to catch Rose's ball.
After Li Ang held the ball, the Lakers' formation immediately took shape.
Kobe and Billups were around the free throw line, and Garnett was also on the edge of the three-second zone on Leon's side.
This instantly a large net was formed, waiting for Li Ang to come in.
The Lakers' defense is still so perfect. It seems that Li Ang is going to fall into a tough battle again.
Li Ang did not hesitate and broke through with the ball.
But just when Kobe and Garnett were about to shrink and attack Li Ang, Li Ang stopped and jumped into the jump shot from one step outside the three-point line!
This goal is exactly the same as the goal Li Ang scored when he grabbed time in the last moment of the last game.
Ariza reacted too hard and interfered a little slower, giving Li Ang a fleeting shooting space.
But like Kobe, for Li Ang, this little space is enough.
Li Ang shot the ball steadily, and the basketball was hollowed into the net. Today, Li Ang scored his first goal in the game as soon as he came up!
Although it was just an ordinary jump shot, the Zen master on the sidelines licked his lips nervously.
This goal should be just a coincidence?
No, it's impossible, absolutely not what I thought.
"Li Ang shot the ball from a long distance from mid to long distance. His move today is very decisive. It seems that Li Ang was not crushed by the huge pressure. He is ready to take a gamble!"
Kobe and Hard Te looked at each other, and Li Ang took action at that position, even the Lakers' extremely extreme defense had no time to attack.
But, how long can Li Ang continue to output in that place?
The game continued. This time, Kobe planned to use the same trick again and pushed Li Ang away for an emergency stop jump shot.
But how could Li Ang let Kobe score successfully with one move in a row? Today, Li Ang not only wants to win, but also lock Kobe's points.
Because Li Ang can only use two games to recover Kobe's 28 points.
Kobe pushed Li Ang, but found that this time he failed to push Li Ang away.
Kobe wanted to pass the ball, but his teammates were stared at it at this time.
The defensive strategies of the Clippers and the Lakers are two extremes.
The Lakers are using the whole team to block Li Ang, while the Clippers are determined to defend and not give any Lakers player a chance.
The Lakers defend Li Ang so much because no one in the Lakers can curb Li Ang one-on-one, even Kobe cannot. Moreover, the Lakers can withstand the offensive firepower of role players of the Clippers.
But the Clippers are different. On the Clippers, Li Ang can also limit Kobe by relying on one-on-one. Although it is not as restricted as it was when he played against Durant and Anthony before, at least he can prevent Kobe from losing points.
Kobe played five games in the series, with the highest score being 30 points in the previous game. When playing against the Hornets, Kobe scored 30 points is the norm, and he can still score 40 points if he has a disagreement.
Moreover, the Clippers cannot withstand the firepower of the rest of the Lakers.
The lesson of Garnett and Billups scoring 50 points together is still vivid in my mind.
Therefore, the Clippers can only resolutely defend one-on-one and do one-on-one to the extreme.
Kobe, who had no passing target, could only make a strong shot when he was forced to stop by Li Ang, but Li Ang was in a row and did not give Kobe any shot space.
This has become the norm in this round of series, and the defense of both sides is very suffocating.
Kobe cannot guarantee accuracy at all now, he can only ensure that the ball is not shot.
He raised the arc and let the basketball go beyond Li Ang's fingertips, but the basketball bounced out of the frame.
The Lakers gave up the offensive rebound directly, and immediately retreated when they hit the iron, not giving the Clippers a chance to counterattack.
Because of this, Ross struggled in this round of the series.
It’s hard to break through positional battles. Fight back, but there’s no chance.
