Chapter 6 The score is behind at the last second!
Scott hurriedly called a timeout.
This is also their last pause today.
When Lin Tian came off the court, he looked up at the scoreboard on the top of the stadium. He had scored 36 points tonight. He had other statistics, except for 0 assists.
If you lose tonight, it's all for nothing.
Scott was anxiously planning his tactics.
His meaning is very clear. After the timeout, go straight to the fast break. Whether it is a three-pointer or a two-pointer, shoot when you find an opportunity. Don't let time run away in vain.
The pause was short, and before Scott finished speaking, the whistle sounded.
At this time, Kobe walked up to Lin Tian and said: "Later, come and set me a pick-and-roll, then follow my footsteps, and I will feed you the ball."
Lin Tian nodded.
After the players from both sides returned to the court, Lou Williams served from the sideline and gave the ball to Kobe.
Kobe began to direct the movements of his teammates on the court.
The Clippers players also tried their best to defend against the ball.
The hearts of the more than 10,000 spectators at the scene were also tense at this time.
The Clippers concluded that Kobe would eventually throw the ball, so others were always on guard against Kobe when they were defending.
At this moment, Lin Tian, who was ambushing in the corner, suddenly moved and came to Kobe's side.
He crossed his arms and moved cleanly to set up a pick-and-roll for Kobe.
Kobe passed by Lin Tian, and Lin Tian's body blocked the defender, allowing Kobe to temporarily get rid of Redick who was guarding him.
Then he suddenly accelerated and went straight from the top of the arc to the inside!
Although Kobe is old and has ruptured his Achilles tendon, his speed is not as fast as before, but he still barely keeps Paul and Redick from keeping up.
Seeing that Kobe was about to enter the paint, Griffin and DeAndre Jordan reflexively gave up on their defenders and instead chose to guard the basket.
Kobe is famous for his love of isolation. When he rushes into the paint, he rarely passes the ball out, sometimes even if his teammates are open.
Of course, this situation has changed in recent seasons.
Because Kobe also knew that he was no longer the omnipotent Peter Pan that he used to be.
Facing the aggressive DeAndre Jordan and Griffin, Kobe smiled. He caught sight of Lin Tian next to him from the corner of his eye, and passed the ball directly to Lin Tian.
Both Jordan and Griffin's attention was attracted by Kobe, and they didn't pay much attention to Lin Tian who ran from behind Kobe.
When they reacted and prepared to defend, Lin Tian had already taken off and was preparing for a layup.
It was too late at this time. Xiao Qiaodan, who had been dunked by Lin Tian before, reached out his hand in anger and fiercely pulled Lin Tian, who had already taken off, from the air.
Fortunately, the basketball has been thrown by Lin Tian.
He himself was dragged to the ground by Jordan.
"Beep!"
When the ball entered the net, the referee's whistle also sounded, indicating that it was a 2+1.
Kobe rushed over directly.
He did not help Lin Tian who fell to the ground, but pushed Xiao Jordan: "Hey! Do you want to destroy him?"
Other Lakers players also gathered around.
The Clippers also rushed to help DeAndre Jordan, and the atmosphere instantly became tense.
Espn's two commentators laughed:
"Hey hey hey! There's a situation! Do you want to start a fight?"
"Don't worry! If you can't fight, maybe NBA players are not afraid of being suspended, but fines will make them rational."
"DeAndre played very hard today!"
"That is, if a young man dunks on me, I will feel aggrieved, but I will not hurt him intentionally."
…
There were also cheers from tens of thousands of spectators at the scene.
Fortunately, the referee's ability to control the field was pretty good and prevented a conflict in time.
Lin Tian was pulled up by Kobe Bryant and Nance Jr., and while the referee was watching the replay, they still had time to listen to the coach's tactics.
The penalty results will come out soon.
DeAndre Jordan and Kobe both received a technical foul.
This is a result that everyone has predicted for a long time, so it is not surprising.
Lin Tian also watched the replay carefully, and he was a little moved by Kobe's behavior.
Returning to the court, Lin Tian stood on the free throw line and had a chance to make a free throw.
When the referee passed the ball over, he patted the ball twice, then collected the ball, turned the ball in his hands rhythmically, and then threw it out.
"Whoa!"
After making a free throw, Lin Tian's personal scoring record was refreshed to 39 points.
There are 29 seconds left on the clock! The two sides are tied.
The Clippers did not take a timeout, and Jordan passed the ball to Paul.
Paul holds the ball and starts to press time.
The person responsible for defending him is still Lin Tian.
Only Lin Tian can keep up with Paul's extremely fast-paced dribbling.
Lin Tian stared at Paul attentively.
As long as we prevent this ball, we can at least play overtime.
With 6 seconds left in the attack time, the Clippers players were still running wildly to create shooting opportunities.
Paul made a fake move to pass the ball, and then suddenly rushed inside.
Not one of his moves escaped Lin Tian's eyes. When Paul rushed inside, Lin Tian always blocked his way forward and away.
Halfway through the rush, Paul suddenly braked.
This sudden braking will definitely make the defender lose their center of gravity.
But he was wrong. Although Lin Tian temporarily lost his center of gravity, his speed of adjustment was beyond Paul's imagination.
If the ball is thrown out like this, even if it is not blocked, the shot will be greatly interfered with.
In desperation, Paul finally passed the ball to Griffin near the baseline.
After Griffin received the ball, he forced his way into Randall's defense.
After the ball was scored, he even showed his hands to the referee to indicate that it was a 2+1, but the referee ignored it.
With Griffin's goal, the score was rewritten to 120:118.
There was indescribable frustration on Kobe's face.
The young players in the team are pretty good offensively, but their defense is really bad.
But asking them to defend Griffin is indeed a bit too forced.
Even though Griffin looks short-handed, his explosive power is extremely terrifying.
Although Lin Tian restricted Paul to a great extent today, Griffin played very comfortably.
There are only five seconds left in the game.
The Lakers have no more timeouts.
Five seconds is too short. It takes just a few seconds to run from the backcourt to the frontcourt. They have no way out.
Many spectators at the scene had already stood up excitedly, and the voice of the commentators was also raised a lot.
Nance Jr. wanted to pass the ball to Kobe in the backcourt, but unexpectedly, the Clippers started to defend the ball!
Kobe and Lin Tian were surrounded and did not give Nance Jr. a chance to send his request to them.
The two hurriedly crossed paths and finally found an opening, allowing Nance Jr. to serve the ball.
The ball was in Lin Tian's hand. He picked it up and pushed forward quickly. When he rushed to the frontcourt, there was only one second left!
"Shoot! Shoot quickly!" Kobe's eager voice reached his ears.
Chapter completed!
