Chapter 225
Steve Clifford looked at Xu Tian, who dunked lightly, and felt powerless from the bottom of his heart, so he had to call a timeout again.
Lakers 44-33 Hornets, 7 minutes and 22 seconds left in the second quarter!
Walker was full of ambition before the game, but his performance tonight was really poor. This situation made him very depressed. He sat on the bench, covered his mouth with a towel, and quietly listened to the coach's tactical arrangements.
Scott didn't make tactical adjustments, only replaced George and Kobe, and the main lineup played in the second half.
Steve Clifford specifically told Walker not to be affected by the background of the game, let go of distracting thoughts, and focus on the game itself.
After all, Kemba Walker is the star of the Hornets. When he returned to the court, he tried his best to adjust his mentality and dribbled the ball across the half.
Xu Tian was in charge of defending Jeremy Lin. While fighting physically, he spat nonsense nonsense to each other.
After George rested, his movement speed became significantly faster, and he never lost his position when defending Walker.
Walker didn't dare to shoot directly. After stopping the ball at the free throw line, he passed the ball to Nicolas Batum at the top of the arc.
Nicolas Batum saw the 24-second shot clock was about to pass, and faced Kobe's defense, he shot a 26-foot three-pointer directly.
Dangdang Dangdang!
Tyson Chandler bounced aggressively, grabbed the basketball with both hands, and picked up the defensive rebound.
Xu Tian received the pass and crossed halftime, facing a double-team at the top of the arc, and split the ball to George on the left corner.
Jeremy Lin, who made George's fake shot and flew to defend, dribbled the ball for a breakthrough, and passed the fake shot to Xu Tian who was running.
Xu Tian felt hot, dribbled the ball straight to the inside, and rode on horseback to shoot.
Cody Zeller clung to Tyson Chandler firmly and turned to look at the ball, trying to predict where it would bounce.But the shot didn't hit the iron and fell directly into the net.
46-33!
Kemba Walker's confused performance on the offensive end made him lose confidence a little. He dribbled the ball just after halftime and gave it directly to Jeremy Lin who was running.
Kobe and George are located on the left and right sides of Jeremy Lin, and they move to the middle at the same time, and the two pinch Jeremy Lin who holds the ball.
Jeremy Lin is one of several players in the league without cylinders.
George and Kobe started with actions close to fouls, which directly caused Jeremy Lin to make a mistake and won the ball.
The Lakers' fast-break and counterattack efficiency is very high, and the Hornets' perimeter is generally slow, unable to form an effective defense at all.
George and Kobe connected in the frontcourt and completed a small ball cooperation. Kobe scored two points with a layup.
48-33!
Seeing that the team hadn't scored for a long time, Jordan anxiously wiped his face with his hands to ease his anger.
Kemba Walker broke through to the inside with the help of physical confrontation, and made a tough layup directly, causing a foul by Josh.
The fans at the scene were afraid of affecting the mentality of the leading star, so they kept as quiet as possible.
Xu Tian put his hands on his knees, bent over to look at the timer, and rested in an empty way.
Kemba Walker didn't feel good tonight. He missed two free throws and all went out of the front frame.
Tyson Chandler easily closed the board and handed it to George, who dribbled the ball across the court.
The fans at the scene were very dissatisfied with Walker's performance and began to boo and interfere with the home team's defense.
George didn't pass the ball, and took advantage of Walker's distraction to dribble past him.
The Hornets' overall offense and defense were messed up, and no one came to defend George at all, giving him an easy chance to open.
Jump shot!
50-33!
Steve Clifford had no choice but to call a timeout again.
Kemba Walker was replaced by Jeremy Lamb, who played well, and the rest of the staff remained unchanged.In terms of offensive and defensive tactics, the focus of offense is on Al Jefferson.
The Lakers took a big lead and still did not make adjustments, and the original team continued to play.
Jeremy Lin dribbled the ball across the half court, started it with Al Jefferson's cover, and wanted to break through to the three-point line.
Josh and George let go of Al Jefferson, who was running down, and double-sided Jeremy Lin who was holding the ball, without giving any room for passing the ball.
Nicholas Batum turned his mind quickly, and quickly ran behind Jeremy Lin to catch the ball back smoothly.
Xu Tian defended Nicolas Batum at the top of the arc, marking the man tightly, and continued to put pressure on the dribbling rhythm.
Nicholas Batum felt the Lakers' sudden increase in defensive strength, and was a little at a loss for a moment, and made a mistake when he scored the ball inside.
Josh is shorter than Al Jefferson, so he has to be more flexible accordingly. He defends around the front and intercepts the ball.
Xu Tian received the pass, and George, who quickly went down the left side of the ball, promoted the best defensive counterattack.
George swung his arms and bombarded the unguarded basket vigorously!
52-33!
Steve Clifford was anxious and shouted at the players on the court: "Calm down! Calm down!"
Jeremy Lin is a student at Harvard University with a high golf quotient, but with limited physical talent, he still failed to break through the strong double-teaming of the Lakers.
Jeremy Lamb was open, but Jeremy Lin knew that Xu Tian was in ambush on the passing route, so he didn't dare to pass the ball easily.
Nicolas Batum ran to the top of the arc again, trying to meet Jeremy Lin, who was flanked and defended, but this time there was something wrong with the cooperation between the two.
George stabbed the basketball with his right hand, making it escape Jeremy Lin's grasp, and quickly ran out towards the frontcourt.
George, Kobe, Jeremy Lin, and Nicolas Batum, the four started at the same time, and quickly scrambled for the free-moving basketball.
Xu Tian took a big stride, got the basketball first, dribbled the ball and ran towards the frontcourt.
The Hornets defenders couldn't catch up, so they could only watch Xu Tian take off.
The fans turned their backs and cheered for Xu Tian's dunk!
54-33!
TNT played subtitles, showing that the Hornets had only scored two points in the past 6 minutes.
George stayed in the frontcourt, directly resorted to the full-court tight man-to-man defense, and continued to increase his defensive efforts.
Cody Zeller made a sloppy pass, was intercepted by George, and sent another easy layup.
Jeremy Lin had no other choice. He pulled people behind him and blocked George who wanted to start.
George's core strength is good, hanging on Jeremy Lin's defense, he completed the layup.
The basketball wipes the board, hits the board and hits the board, and there is an additional penalty!
56-33!
George was very excited, facing the audience behind the basket, proudly showing his strong muscles.
Xu Tian and Kobe walked over, and after he calmed down, they gave him high fives to celebrate.
Barkley exclaimed: "The Lakers' perimeter defense has been very oppressive recently. The perimeter core of each team will have a greatly reduced performance when facing them."
Kenny Smith thought it was obvious and said, "Come on! Charles, Xu is the current steal leader, Paul George is in the discussion of the best defensive player, and Kobe's defense is far above average. Such a perimeter combination, Only superstars are immune to it."
"Superstars will also be affected!" Barkley is very confident about the Lakers' perimeter.
