Calm down, that's for others to see.

Zhang Hao was also anxious during the game, but when he entered the halftime break, he discovered a problem with the Lakers - eager to win.

The 16-game winning streak brings not only a thousand lights, but also changes in mentality.

Although everyone may say "I know our strength", in fact, even Zhang, who is not as clear as his team.

But because he calmed down more easily than others, after half of the game against the Warriors, he clearly felt one thing- his teammates became arrogant!

Teammates all felt that they should win easily against the Warriors, including the head coach, so they felt anxious and anxious after falling behind in the first half.

Because they have had a full-time advantage in many games in the past, except for a few games, other games have been smooth and crushing wins.

And those few games have superstars, and you can find a reason to worry.

I will consider the future. At least in this game, what Zhang Hao needs to do is not to wake up his teammates, and the timing is not right.

Now, all he has to do is maintain confidence! Use his powerful influence that he can feel to drive his teammates and calm down.

In this game alone, they think they should beat the Warriors. Perhaps the kind of self-confidence that is rightfully arrogant, but believing that they can win is not arrogant, because they really should have the strength to beat the Warriors.

As he said, the Warriors played so well, and the Lakers were only 7 points behind.

After sagging for two minutes, Zhang Hao stood up, patted his face, and returned to the poker face. He pressed the button to pump water, as if all his anxiety had been taken away, he went to the sink to wash his hands, and returned to the locker room with his cold face as usual.

At this time, Del Harris had regained his confident and wise expression, and he saw that everyone was in harmony and began to arrange tactics.

Magicians, Zhang Hao and other players who have a strong sense of tactics listened to Del Harris' tactical arrangement - good guy, isn't it just the same tactics as in the first half?

The reason I said it again is to make the players believe that their head coach has thought of a coping strategy...

...

After returning from the intermission, the Lakers' spirit has improved a lot from top to bottom.

Del Harris regained his calmness and wisdom. The magician saw through everything. Zhang Hao remained calm as usual, which made his teammates' confidence rise.

After the third quarter started, the Warriors' momentum was still fierce, with no signs of slackness or pride. Instead, they played harder because of the opportunity to defeat the 16-game winning team.

Fortunately, the Lakers head coach was calm, the spiritual leader and core magician of the transfer ball was calm, and Zhang Hao was calm, which made the Lakers players not as impatient as in the second quarter and steadily. No matter how well the opponent played, they should do whatever they should do.

Zhang Hao was consumed by Oliver Miller when he came on the court, and he also admitted that the opponent played so well on the outside, so he tried his best not to let the opponent's strong attack points open in the inside. At the same time, this also allowed Campbell, who could rely on his height and tonnage as his advantage on the offensive end, to play better.

Someone must sacrifice. Tonight Campbell made it clear that it could be used as an offensive advantage. It was his turn to Zhang to make other contributions. He didn't think there was anything wrong.

When you are on the offensive end, you can open up space so that your teammates can better play team attacks. You can play singles occasionally and get the ball if you have the chance to catch the ball...

Zhang Hao has always believed in teammates like this.

Gradually, the teammates also gave rewards!

In the third quarter, both teams fiercely scored 30+!

The Warriors' outside star team continued their outstanding performance tonight. Under the leadership of Spreville and Tim Hardaway, the Warriors scored 31 points in a single quarter.

But the Lakers scored 34 points in a single quarter!

After the third quarter, the Lakers chased the score to 85-89, only 4 points away!

The difference in the score difference narrows to 4 points and enters the fourth quarter. It feels completely different from the difference in score difference above 5 points. It seems to be just a problem of one goal, but sometimes the game can be divided into one goal, and sometimes it is because one goal is scored less, and two goals are needed to solve the problem at critical moments.

In the third quarter, Zhang Hao played for 9 minutes, got two points with counterattack, got two points in the mid-range shot, got one of the two free throws, got one of 2 free throws, got 5 points, 3 rebounds, 1 assist and 1 steal, and his performance was still OK.

He played for 9 minutes in a row, allowing the Warriors to put Oliver Miller on the court, giving Campbell enough rest time. Campbell played 7 points in the last three minutes of the third quarter, which was the key factor in the Lakers' overtake.

At the beginning of the fourth quarter, Zhang Hao was placed on the sidelines to rest.

After the third quarter, Zhang Hao played 26 minutes, made 6 of 14 shots, plus 6 of 8 free throws, and scored 18 points, 8 rebounds, 3 assists, 2 steals and 1 block. His performance was really good!

But when he encountered a team like the Warriors who seemed to be hard-working and actually useless in defense, he only got this point lower than expected. Overall, he firmly played with the opponent and did not allow the opponent to bloom both inside and outside, and performed quite well.

After the final quarter, Zhang Hao saw that they were beaten 4-0 by the opponent at the beginning. In fact, they missed two consecutive goals and the opponent scored two goals in a row. Zhang Hao was a little impatient, but looked at the court with expressionless expression, as if he was not worried at all.

After being scored by the opponent, the teammates who subconsciously looked at the bench saw Del Harris' calmness, Zhang Hao's calmness, and his heart was much more stable and he played patiently.

The Warriors' star played well tonight, which means that the star always stands out when the goal is needed, and it is difficult for the Lakers to chase points.

However, Zhang Hao's patience was rewarded. At 5 minutes and 37 seconds in the fourth quarter, Van Exel felt a touch and made a three-pointer!

Immediately after 6 minutes and 02 seconds, Van Exel made another three-pointer, chasing the gap to only 4 points left!

Then the Warriors Joe Smith missed the baseline jump shot, and the offense and defense were converted. Van Exel advanced to the frontcourt and pretended to continue shooting, attracting a pincer attack, and distributed it to nearby Donyere Marshall. Donyere Marshall was not ruthless in the face of his old club and made a three-pointer!

This wave of 9-2 helped the Lakers catch up to 101-103, narrowing the gap to two points! The Warriors called a timeout!

There are 5 minutes and 20 seconds left in the game! Enter the last official timeout!

The Lakers scored 16-14 in the past half quarter, Van Exel scored 6 points, Campbell scored 5 points, Doug Christie scored 2 points, and Donyere Marshall scored 3 points.

Campbell played 28 points and 8 rebounds in 22 minutes tonight. His scoring efficiency was quite high, and his scoring set a new season high. He was only 4 points away from his career-high 32 points. He also didn't play much time and was quite efficient. However, he actively moved with his huge weight and tried hard to block the close distance. He didn't have Zhang Hao's help for most of the time, so he played tiring enough.

I have gradually gotten used to having Zhang Hao help to make up for the close range, and Zhang Hao's close range repair is getting better and better. Suddenly, without Zhang Hao's help, both Campbell and the coaching staff, I felt the importance of Zhang Hao's increasingly irreplaceable to this team.

Zhang Hao, who had been resting for most of the time, was called. He had already started to move his body when he entered the pause and came to Del Harris to listen to the arrangements.

Del Harris emphasized for a long time, and Zhang Hao summed up in one sentence - go up and work hard!

...

After the official timeout, the Lakers sent a combination of Van Exel, Doug Christie, Magic, Jason Williams and Zhang Hao.

The Warriors sent Tim Hardaway, Spreville, Chris Mullin, Joe Smith and Ronnie Selica.

Oliver Miller was not replaced, and Oliver Miller could no longer run! 20 minutes of rest was not enough for Oliver Miller to recover the consumption of the previous 20 minutes of game time.

The King of Cross Steps scored 24 points and 4 assists, the Madman scored 28 points and 6 assists, and God's left hand scored 18 points and 2 assists... These three brothers almost scored 72 points by singles! No one else!

Zhang Hao easily judged that the opponent would take turns to singles outside the three-point line, and all three could make three-pointers. If the touch felt good, singles were the best solution to the problem at critical moments.

Sure enough, after the game started again, Spreville received the ball from the center line and came outside the three-point line and handed the ball directly to Chris Mullin. The Magician defended it miserably... and then failed to defend it, but was removed by Chris Mullin and watched Chris Mullin make a mid-range shot with his left hand.

Fortunately, when he turned around, Zhang Hao attracted Joe Smith and Chris Mullin to attack. The Magic received a hook shot from close range from Zhang Hao to score, and the Lakers bit the score!

Don't worry, play slowly, and it's been a whole game tonight. The Lakers are used to this situation and chase slowly. The half-quarter game is not long, but it's not short.

Often, a team with poor record will always give others a bad impression, especially when the other party has a bad reputation.

Before playing against the Warriors, Zhang Hao had the same impression of the Warriors, just like his impression of the Nets before he went to the Nets. Although he had no grudges with the Warriors and had only the other side had a No. 1 pick, his impression was still bad.

But after the actual fight, he found that whether it was Spreville, Tim Hardaway, Chris Mullin, Oliver Miller...even Joe Smith, they were very active and hard-working to win.

At this time, Zhang Hao and Joe Smith didn't care about "who is more qualified to be the top scorer" and actively did what they should do.

However, the stars may always be more reliable than the team at critical moments. When they hit 11 minutes and 08 seconds, the Warriors widened the gap to 6 points by scoring three consecutive rounds!

120-114, the Warriors stopped the Lakers!

Del Harris made a very simple arrangement. Now the simpler the better. There is not much time, so you must attack.

After the timeout, the Lakers replaced the Magic, and the combination of Van Exel, Anthony Pierre, Doug Christie, Donyere Marshall and Zhang Hao was replaced.

When the Lakers' frontcourt ball, Van Exel advanced outside the three-point line and encountered the rough defense of Spreville, the best defensive defensive master, and the singles task was handed over to Zhang Hao!

Zhang Hao was really tired tonight! He fought with a big fat man who was average but fatter than O'Neal, but at this moment he actively went to the left bottom line on the three-second zone and got Ronnie Sekali wanted the ball.

Turn around and use his arms to jamm Ronnie Selica's horizontal movement space. Zhang Hao broke into close range. Joe Smith and Chris Mullin completed the switch to attack from the right side of the free throw line in time!

Tangyele Marshall may have a chance to catch the ball when facing Chris Mulin, but Zhang Hao did not pass, and turned around and cut in and made a close-range jump shot...

The emergency stop jump shot is not what Zhang Hao is good at, but this time he is very decisive... and he is straightforward!

Joe Smith turned around in annoyance and picked up the ball and squeezed it hard, but he heard Zhang Hao's heavy breathing sound at this time, and believed that he would not be able to defend himself this time, and he would definitely do the next time!

Moreover, their Warriors are about to win!

Suddenly, Joe Smith was happy and wanted to win! He was going to end the Lakers' 16 consecutive wins, which was just the end of Zhang Hao's 16 consecutive wins!

Although it must be just a short-term happiness, it also made Joe Smith a little lost and exited the baseline and sent the ball out...

Zhang Hao breathed for a while and was about to run back when he saw a round thing flying past him. He was a little confused, but when facing the round thing, he couldn't stand the temptation as a man, and subconsciously reached out and grabbed it... Is it the ball?

Stealed!

Zhang Hao quickly turned around and pushed the ball into the basket before Joe Smith pressed up in shock and panic... hit it!

Joe Smith, who rushed up in panic, threw Zhang Hao down!

This must be blown. The referee whistle sounded, Joe Smith made a defensive foul, Zhang Hao scored a goal and had to be punished more!

After scoring the goal, Zhang Hao got up by himself and walked directly to the free throw line with the stunned expressions of Tim Hardaway and Chris Mulin next to him.

The teammates were shocked. He scored 4 points in a row? No! There are additional penalties, and it is possible to score 5 points in a row!

Not to mention others, Zhang Hao himself didn't understand why he stole the ball and scored. He was still dizzy when he stood on the free throw line, and Adelman on the sideline was already pointing at Joe Smith and started scolding!

The fans at the scene did not expect that their team could do such an operation, serving the ball across the person? Or serving in a straight line on their chests, the fans were all in a mess.

With Zhang Hao hitting the penalty, the Lakers' morale is greatly boosted compared to the Warriors' outrage!

With 33 seconds left, the Lakers chased the score to 119-120!

Joe Smith, who was scolded for being terrified, served again. Zhang Hao had already retreated to the backcourt and could not come out in the three-second zone. Joe Smith had repeatedly confirmed the surroundings before serving, and confirmed that Zhang Hao was not there, and then sent the ball to Tim Hardaway.

The key ball is of course handed over to the strongest Spreeville.
To be continued...
