"Welcome back Kobe and coach!"

Seeing the morale suddenly exploded in front of the Lakers bench, the Lakers fans at the scene were shocked.

The audience in front of the TV was stunned.

Even Popovich on the other side was shocked.

Kobe has already retired from injury!

In any team, a player like Kobe retreating from injury is a fatal blow.

Not to mention the morale collapse.

At least the whole team is going to fall into the haze.

But the Lakers...

OK...

The morale of each one has even soared!

Here is Kobe's motivation just now.

There is also McGrady's leadership.

More importantly...

Popovich looked at the coach D who had just left and now appeared again on TV.

"As long as he is still the head coach of the Lakers, as long as he is still on the court, even if he is just a spectator in the stands, he can support the morale and confidence of the Lakers!"

Although I don’t like Coach D very much, Popovich has to admit that Coach D’s existence is a miracle in the NBA.

The game starts again.

Although the commentators from various countries were shocked by the morale of the Lakers.

But now the Lakers' strength has been greatly reduced after Kobe was injured.

So whether it is TNT's team, Teacher Zhang Heli, or commentators from other countries, after finding a lot of winning conditions for the Lakers, they found that in this game, the Lakers wanted to win from hell to purgatory.

It's impossible to win!

Kobe is here, and the Lakers' offense has a backbone.

Kobe is gone, and the Lakers' offense is gone.

After the half-time game, the Lakers and Spurs had already tied, and the 6-point advantage that Kobe had desperately won for the Lakers has disappeared.

The half-time game ends.

Seeing that the Lakers' score was tied, the Lakers fans at the scene were naturally very anxious.

But there was no less applause from Lakers players.

Because they were tied by the Spurs, it was not because the Lakers players themselves were not working hard enough.

But the Spurs are too strong.

After more than one quarter, the Lakers lost Kobe, and in the end they only lost 6 points, which is very good.

So, at the halftime break, McGrady said so.

"We are still leading by 5 points. Popovich and the Spurs should be anxious now!"

"Popovich and the Spurs will definitely not allow the Spurs to just tie us. As long as Coach D is behind us, the Spurs will not be insured even if they lead by 5 points!"

"We don't think about how the next game will be, because there is no meaning. Even without me and Kobe and Coach D, Coach D can take you to defeat any opponent!"

"So, the only thing we need to do now is to maintain the game and maintain the score, and we will win!"

McGrady's words in the locker room once again unified the thoughts of Lakers players.

The Lakers players are not the kind of soft-footed shrimps, but because of Kobe's injury, everyone was very panicked for a while.

Kobe and the coach are not here, and everyone lacks a backbone.

At this time, Maizi took on the role of this backbone and found a goal for the team.

As long as there is a goal, the Lakers can continue to move forward.

Although it is difficult.

But it won't be broken!

As long as the Lakers don’t collapse, the longer they can hold on, the more panicked the Spurs will be!

"TMC... can we really go to the end?"

McGrady glanced at Artest, who was the most nervous at this time, and didn't say anything, but kicked the guy away with one kick.

"Don't affect my rest!"

After the lecture, McGrady closed her eyes and entered the hellish field.

Although he said that, this Spurs is indeed completely different from the Spurs last season.

This Spur is completely different from the Spur in his dream.

Duncan is completely different.

Parker and Ginobili also began to change.

Compared to last season, his control over the Spurs is already minimal.

Especially Duncan, the strongest Duncan he had ever seen, he had never seen such a rhythm, Duncan who looked so weak but so strong.

The Spurs I'm playing now is really desperate.

"TMC, how many times have I said it? When it's time for you to take action, don't hesitate. Do you not understand people's words?"

After losing again in the game, Maizi kicked TMC, who had a bruised nose and a swollen face, away.

"Continue to start, today, I must beat the Spurs!"

The real Spurs are desperate.

The dream spurs are also desperate.

McGrady's heart was now filled with anger that she could not vent.

The third quarter starts.

After missing Kobe, the Lakers replaced Kobe Ebanks.

Ebanks does not have the ability to attack. In the playoffs, players who do not have the ability to attack are very easy to defend.

As long as the defense is stable and does not collapse, the opponent will have no chance.

In this way, after the second half began, the Spurs were chasing points wildly.

However, the Lakers have been prepared for such a chasing score by the Spurs, and now the Lakers are full of morale.

Although McGrady and Yao Ming's pick-and-roll efficiency is not as good as the Spurs' UCLA cut.

But it is impossible for the Spurs to defeat the Lakers.

However, for the Lakers, what is very desperate is that without Kobe, this team has completely relied on McGrady and Yao Ming.

The third section is particularly obvious.

"McDy and Yao Ming's pick-and-roll! It's pick-and-roll of McGrady and Yao Ming's pick-and-roll again!"

"The Lakers have been playing pick-and-rolls with Yao Ming and McGrady throughout the third quarter!"

"McDie and Yao Ming are really hard-working!"

"The Spurs' UCLA cut, everyone can attack and everyone can pass the ball. Such a battle of attrition will eventually be dragged down!"

The Spurs have also played in the pick-and-roll between McGrady and Yao Ming in the past five games.

Yao Ming's back-on attack ability has some reasons for losing weight. In short, Yao Ming's back-on singles ability is insufficient now.

So in the playoffs, the Spurs were crazy about this, and Popovich was crazy about this.

As long as Yao Ming and Kobe pick-and-roll or McGrady and Kobe pick-and-roll, the ball will be in close contact with Yao Ming's hand and then cut the ball in the three-way way, intercept the ball, harass and hit the person. Yao Ming is not allowed to dribble and adjust, nor is Yao Ming a good shooting rhythm.

If you say you completely prevent Yao Ming from defending this way, it is impossible. It is so high that you can still shoot.

But it did reduce Yao Ming's offensive efficiency.

This made Kobe and Yao Ming, or McGrady and Yao Ming pick-and-roll, often the damage caused by insufficient in the first five games, is not as good as McGrady and Kobe's singles.

However, in this game, perhaps Yao Ming's condition finally broke out once, or perhaps it was because of Kobe's motivation.

In the third quarter, McGrady and Yao Ming played very well in the pick-and-roll.

Yao Ming received a pass from McGrady and faced Leonard's close-fitting defense. He did not adjust and directly pulled out.

A swipe!

Hit!

If it were the first five games, Yao Ming would not have such efficiency.
