Chapter 135, crazy confrontation.
Zen Master is very satisfied with Zhou Hang's performance on the court.
Although Zhou Hang played averagely in the first half, but in the substitute stage, his performance was very explosive.
Barkley shouted: "The Nuggets didn't do a good job with Zhou Hang's defense. Zhou Hang frequently scored points in the final stage."
Smith said: "The first quarter of the game can see that the score will not be low tonight."
After coming back from the holiday break.
Zen master is still on the second team, Zhou Hang's state is very hot at the end of the first quarter, Zen master is not willing to have Zhou Hang off the court.
Anthony went down for the Nuggets, and Iverson led the team on the court.
The lineups of the two teams are still relatively small, just playing against each other.
Nuggets offense.
Iverson strengthened his organizational support. After he passed Farmar in a high-speed change of direction, he hit the ground to Kenyon Martin who cut to the inside.
Gasol's defense was knocked open by Kenyon Martin.
After Kenyon Martin received a pass from Iverson, he stepped up and dunked directly!
"frame!"
29:33.
The Nuggets' offense is still full of lethality, and the Lakers' players dare not relax.
Lakers fans also watched the game nervously. This kind of team is difficult to play.
On the court, Gasol gave Zhou Hang a quick serve.
Zhou Hang took the ball and sprinted.
Ariza and Farmar also fly on both wings.
The Nuggets' defense was not completely in place. Zhou Hang's straight-line attack attracted Iverson and JR's defense and then jumped to Ariza on the right.
Ariza hits an open [-]-pointer in transition.
When there is defense, Ariza is not accurate, but he is very comfortable shooting this open three-pointer.
"Shh!"
29:36.
This three-pointer quickly revived the momentum of the Staples Arena.
It took only 5 seconds for the Lakers to attack this wave.
"The speed of the Lakers has also increased."
"The second lineup is to play fast-paced, and the starting lineup is to play slow-paced, fast or slow!"
"It seems that Zhou Hang is going to let go of the confrontation with Iverson!"
Iverson on the field turned dark, ignored the cheers, and rushed forward with a quick dribble.
Iverson was never afraid to compare his speed with others.
The Lakers' defense is quick, and their players' defensive awareness is stronger than that of the Nuggets.
After rushing to the frontcourt, Iverson was forced to slow down by the nearby Ariza.
Iverson came out in a circle and gave it to JR who followed up. JR continued to break through and pass the ball to Najera in the right corner.
Najera again transferred to Iverson on the right.
Iverson was in the open, and he shot a three-pointer.
"frame!"
Iverson's three-point shooting percentage is only 31% in his career, which is not qualified for a guard, and even the open space is not so safe.
The rebound was taken by Gasol, Zhou Hang immediately accelerated his sprint, Gasol sent a long pass to lead Zhou Hang forward.
After reaching the frontcourt, one meter away from the three-point line, Zhou Hang dribbled the ball up.
JR was originally retreating, but when he saw Zhou Hang's movement, he immediately rushed over.
But still slow! !
"Shh!"
Zhou Hang's conversion scored a three-pointer.
29 to 39, the difference between the two teams widened.
The Nuggets' offense is also very fast, and Kenyon Martin also quickly served Iverson back.
Iverson passed Zhou Hang at high speed, hit the basket against Gasol and scored a layup.
31:39.
Iverson prefers this kind of breakthrough offense to shooting from the outside.
The Lakers attacked, and Gasol continued to give Zhou Hang free throws.
Zhou Hang dribbled the ball behind his back and then dived and accelerated to pass Iverson.
"WOW!!"
The Lakers fans continued to shout, they like to watch such battles.
This kind of confrontational atmosphere can make people feel blood spurting.
Zhou Hang rushed to the opposite three-point line and passed JR again after a prayer.
It's not that Zhou Hang is extraordinary, but that the Nuggets' defense is really bad.
After Zhou Hang broke into the three-point line one step, he did not continue to go in, but stopped in the middle distance and pulled it up!
The basketball draws a straight line.
"frame!"
"Shh!"
31:41.
The Nuggets thought that Zhou Hang would slow down the pace, but they didn't expect Zhou Hang to attack as soon as he said it.
Nuggets offense.
Iverson inserted the inside line after using the pick and roll.
At high speed, Iverson distributed the ball to Kenyon Martin who followed up in the middle.
"boom!"
After Martin knocked Gasol away again, he dunked with both hands!
33:41.
"The offensive rhythm of the two teams is very fast. The Lakers' second team doesn't care whether Iverson is on the court or not. Let's see which coach of the two teams is more patient and who will stop this endless speed first." Barkley shouted.
The offense on the field is still in full swing.
After the starters of the two teams came to the field, they also had to run with this rhythm,
The two teams finished the first half in this confrontation.
63:69.
The Lakers have an advantage in this run and gun game.
Zhou Hang didn't take many shots in this quarter, only 8 shots, 6 of them were hit, and then he sent 5 assists.
Kobe and Gasol also faced much less pressure because of Zhou Hang's restraint on the court.
The most direct thing is that Kobe's efficiency has soared. Kobe is no longer facing a one-on-two or three-on-three situation. In many cases, he only needs to deal with one defender.
In this kind of heads-up, Kobe has an advantage.
Although the Lakers are in great shape, the Nuggets are not in bad shape. The simultaneous explosion of Iverson and Anthony also kept the atmosphere in the Staples Arena in a state of tension.
Compared with the previous game, the Nuggets have adjusted a lot this time. Their offense is more decisive, no longer hesitates, and always chases the Lakers' ass.
Lakers fans have experienced the scene of being eliminated from the playoffs in the first two seasons. The current fans don't want this scene to happen again, so they are also actively helping the Lakers to cheer.
In the TNT studio.
Barkley said: "The Lakers successfully maintained their lead in the first half, and the absence of Bynum, the little shark, also made their speed completely improved. They are not afraid of the Nuggets when they play fast."
Smith said: "If this fight continues, the outcome will probably be similar to the last game."
Barkley said: "I hope George Karl will complete the adjustment as soon as possible. If they don't defend all the time, they won't be able to win the Lakers."
Smith said: "Seeing that the score is quite close, but the Nuggets have never been able to overtake, which also shows that the Lakers are better than the Nuggets."
Both teams played at their level in the first half.
The absence of Bynum, allowing Zhou Hang to play the No. 1 position, these factors also increased the speed of the Lakers.
The Lakers already have more attackers than the Nuggets, and it is normal to suppress this opponent at home.
Although the Lakers don't run away often, they can't hold back Kobe and Zhou Hang's offensive talents.
In the away locker room.
Iverson kept panting, and then he found George Karl: "Coach, you can't go on like this."
Iverson felt the team was in danger.
George Karl said coldly: "I have emphasized to you many times to defend."
Iverson didn't know how to respond to the head coach for a while, and Anthony was silent beside him.
The Nuggets' problem has always been defense!
If you can't hold it, this round of the series will be over.
Ask for a recommendation ticket.
