His passing indeed posed a considerable threat to the Lakers.

But many times, Wall can only pass the ball to the outside, because the Lakers have Tucker and Howard guarding the inside, which is full of deterrence.

After the first half, the Lakers, led by Lin Tian, ​​firmly held the advantage and led their opponents by 13 points.

After the start of the second half, the confrontation between the two sides improved, and the touch also declined, with frequent strikes.

When the Wizards were in the offensive round, Lin Tian still followed John Wall closely.

Although Wall is selfless, he also wants to score, but under Lin Tian's restrictions, the number of his shots has dropped rapidly!

Even if he takes action, his hit rate is relatively low.

Lin Tian's no-dead-end defense made Wall extremely uncomfortable. He only scored 6 points in the first half, and was severely restricted after the start of the second half.

As for the Lakers' offense, there is absolutely no pressure.

The opponent placed all the defensive center on Lin Tian alone, which gave other players more offensive opportunities.

Especially for Kokobe, every time Lin Tian got the ball, Bill was forced to double-team him.

This resulted in Kobe being left open, and Lin Tian was always able to successfully pass the ball to Kobe.

Every opportunity for an open three-pointer, Kobe was always able to successfully throw the ball in.

After repeated attempts, the Wizards no longer dared to double-team Lin Tian.

Without the opponent's double-team, Lin Tian can score easily again.

The Lakers had Howard on the inside and Kobe and Lin Tian on the outside. In the third quarter, they once widened the point difference to 20 points.

Scott saw that his team had stunned the Wizards, and he breathed a long sigh of relief.

He suddenly felt that he would definitely not be fired by the management after leading this season. This coaching position was secure!

After the fourth quarter started, Howard, who had been dormant for three quarters, began to exert his strength. He hit Gortat continuously and made the opponent lose his temper.

A skinny camel is bigger than a horse. Even if Howard is injured again, he cannot be guarded by Gortat.

With 7 minutes left in the fourth quarter, Lin Tian and Kobe returned to the court, mainly to prevent the Wizards from counterattacking.

But they overestimated the strength of the Wizards. The Wizards failed to counterattack successfully, and the point difference became wider and wider.

The fans at the scene became more and more excited. As expected, it was another hearty victory today!

Those fans who hated Howard so much before have already succumbed to the "law of true fragrance".

Lin Tian and Kobe didn't play much time in the fourth quarter. They only played three minutes before being replaced by Scott because the Wizards had been completely defeated.

When the two men left the field, the cheers for MVP were endless from the audience.

The audience was extremely satisfied with their performance.

Lin Tian scored 44 points, 5 rebounds, 8 assists, 3 steals and 1 block, while Kobe Bryant scored 22 points, 2 rebounds and 2 assists.

If nothing unexpected happens, their statistics will be maintained until the end of the game.

Sitting on the bench, Kobe twisted his neck contentedly, and then allowed Galivetti to wrap a thick ice pack on his leg.

Lin Tian's eyes followed the players running on the field.

The Wizards' Wall and Beal have not yet been substituted.

Without Lin Tian's defense, Wall's number of shots increased linearly and his shooting percentage was also quite high.

He actually vented all his depression in the first three quarters.

But Nick Young and Howard are no longer vegetarians and can always suppress the score.

After Wall scored 16 points, he and Beal were replaced by the Wizards head coach, which also showed that the Wizards officially announced their surrender.

The next time was garbage time. The home fans watched it with gusto, but Wall felt unhappy in his heart.

He glanced at Lin Tian on the Lakers bench and said to Bill: "Is that rookie from China really a rookie?"

After the whole game, this was the biggest question that remained in Wall's mind.

Bill pouted: "That guy completely changed the Lakers."

When the two of them were talking, Lin Tian happened to cast his gaze over.

When their eyes met, Lin Tian also felt a little emotional about the fate of the two leading stars of the Wizards in the future.

Now Bill is completely Wall's little brother.

If there are no big surprises, Bill will sign a contract with the Wizards worth more than 100 million after this season. Wall will be jealous by then...

After Wall signs a new contract in a few seasons, he will be injured again.

All in all, Wall will have a rough time in the future.

Wall now doesn't know that he will rupture his Achilles tendon due to a fall a few years later...

Garbage time was torture for several starting players. After the game, they casually said hello to the Lakers players and left.

The Lakers won two consecutive victories and their record reached 24 wins and 30 losses!

There are still 6 games left before they can correct their record!

Judging from the current momentum, the Lakers are almost bound to enter the playoffs!

An easy victory made the audience dance with excitement, and the players also celebrated for a long time.

Then several key starting players were pulled in for interviews by reporters, and Lin Tian was no exception.

After the on-site interview, I returned to the locker room to take a shower, and then went to the media room for another interview.

Lin Tian is already very familiar with this procedure this season.

When Howard was interviewed by reporters in the media room, he dared to tell reporters confidently that now their goal is not the playoffs, but the championship!

Early the next morning, the Lakers generals embarked on a journey to Boston.

This will also be their last time against the Celtics this season.

The last time we played the Celtics was last month. Lin Tian did not appear in that game due to contract issues, and the Lakers ended in a disastrous defeat.

This time, they have to get back on track.

The plane didn't land in Boston until the afternoon. After the cabin opened, the players walked out of the cabin one after another.

Among them, Lin Tian and Nick Young were holding lunch boxes.

This lunch box was brought from Los Angeles. Because they were in a hurry, they could still eat some when they returned to the hotel.

There were no fans coming to pick up fans at the airport today, which made Kobe breathe a sigh of relief. They got on the bus and quickly headed to the North Shore Garden Arena.

An hour later, the players checked into a five-star hotel next to the North Shore Garden Arena.

The good thing about playing away games is that there is usually one of the city's best hotels nearby the arena.

Although most of the hotel facilities in the United States are old, the players stay in five-star hotels anyway. The team is particularly particular about food, clothing, housing and transportation. After all, playing football is extremely physical, and the accommodation is not good.

Well, it's hard to get players to perform on the court.

The players stayed in the hotel for almost a whole day and did not enter the North Shore Garden Arena for training until the next morning.

When Kobe Bryant visited the Celtics for the last time, the Celtics staff greeted him and asked him to sign autographs.

There are also some staff members who drag their families with them just to let their children take photos with their idols.

Although Kobe was ruthless on the court, he responded to the fans' requests in life.

There were quite a few reporters who came to the North Shore Garden Arena today. After they saw Kobe, their cameras followed Kobe.

It didn't stop until the players arrived at the training hall.

In fact, the players were training, and there was a camera crew filming, but it was not the Celtics' camera crew, but the Lakers'.

The day's training is over.

At seven o'clock in the evening, all Lakers players appeared at the North Shore Garden Arena on time.

As soon as Kobe appeared, the sky was filled with cheers.

As we all know, the Celtics and Lakers can be called rivals, but now, Celtics fans only have respect for Kobe.

Lin Tian is now used to such battles.

While he was doing warm-up exercises, he accidentally looked up and saw several championship flags and retired jerseys on the top of the arena.

Lin Tian has been to many visiting team stadiums this season, but never has there been so many flags hanging from the top of any stadium.

As the team with the most championships in the NBA, the Celtics have won a total of 17 championship trophies.

And there are a total of 21 jerseys retired by them!

You know, the Lakers have only retired 9 jerseys.

In terms of championship trophies, the Lakers also have six fewer championship trophies than the Celtics.

This is a team with a richer ancestor than the Lakers!

Just looking at the championship flag and retired jersey flying above his head gave Lin Tian a certain sense of oppression.
