NBA: I coach Kobe

The Lakers entered the fourth quarter with a 37-point lead.

Abdul-Jabbar said before the start of the fourth quarter: “In this game, the Thunder’s several adjustments have not achieved satisfactory results, and the combination of Howard and Kobe Bryant is too damaging to the Thunder, so trailing by 27 points is basically impossible for them to recover from.” ”

Kenny Smith followed up Abdul-Jabbar: “27 points is actually desperate for any team, but it does not mean that there is no chance at all, their opponent Lakers have played a 20-point comeback this season, it can only be said that there is little hope, and everyone knows that the NBA is a place where miracles work. ”

Charles, Barkley, smiled: “Although the hope is small, if the Thunder can shoot three points in the final quarter, then there is no chance, but if there is no three-pointer, it is really too difficult to rely on two points to score.” ”

“If the Thunder can’t hit at least seven three-pointers in the fourth quarter, then they don’t have a chance to turn around this game!”

Charles Barkley said categorically.

…………

Soon, the fourth quarter of the game began.

Both sides are now in rotation.

The Lakers’ owners are still sitting on the bench, very relaxed.

On the Thunder’s side, Reggie Jackson began to storm the basket to help the Thunder score.

Although the score on the Thunder’s side continues to rise, the bench performance on the Lakers’ side is very reassuring, although the success rate is not as high as Reggie Jackson’s impact on the basket, but he can always hit a three-pointer when he is close to 10 points to stabilize the situation.

At the end of the game with 7 minutes to go, the two teams had a tacit understanding to change the main team.

As soon as he came up, Durant missed a three-pointer.

“We can see that the Thunder now know they need three-pointers! Their three-point shooting doesn’t seem to be as consistent, though! ”

Barkley explained.

In turn for the Lakers’ offense, Kobe Bryant used his signature move to shoot backwards and hit steadily.

However, Durant, as the leading scorer in the league, can still score at key times, and he just missed a three-pointer, but he turned around or continued to shoot, this time with a bang.

But this does not quench thirst, because back then, Kobe Bryant returned a three-pointer!

Every time they attacked, the Thunder did their best.

But the Lakers’ offense looks a little relaxed.

And with a big lead, the Lakers also consciously pressed the rhythm down.

Although the score gap was large throughout the fourth quarter, the game was exceptionally good-looking.

With four minutes left in the game, the difference was still 15 points.

At this time, fans at the Ford Center arena were still cheering for the Thunder.

This is the fans of the small ball market, although there are not many people, but they are more cohesive than the fans of the big club.

The Thunder players on the court also tried their best at this time, but they were still helpless.

With 3 and a half minutes left in the game, the score was already 30 points.

Brooks called a timeout, and he chose to abandon resistance and declare surrender.

Kenny Smith: “The Thunder are capitulating…”

Abdul-Jabbar: “Actually, the Thunder should have given up early, and it was too difficult to chase nearly 30 points in one quarter! ”

Charles Barkley laughed: “Senior Jabbar, the team you mentioned, even if you give the Thunder a Maddie now, and Maddie still has 35 seconds and 13 minutes, it is estimated that he will not be able to win this game.” ”

“The Thunder should think about how to limit Howard and Kobe Bryant in the next game while not making the rest of the Lakers feel good.”

“Let’s see if Westbrook can come back in the next game, if not, it’s too difficult for the Thunder to win.”

…………

Backbite……

With the final whistle sounding.

The score was fixed at 121-91, and the Lakers won the first game of the Western Conference semifinals by 30 points.

Howard’s stats, on the other hand, played 35 minutes, shot 15-of-19 from the field, made 6-of-6 free throws, and scored 36 points, 14 rebounds, 3 assists, and 3 blocks.

Well-deserved MVP.

And Kobe Bryant also played well in this game, scoring 29 points, 7 rebounds and 6 assists.

With these two generals, and then Nash, Gasol and Yi Jianlian, it was too simple to win.

…………

“Hey!! Bristling!!! ”

The first time after the game, Charles Barkley found Lin Li and greeted him very excitedly, very pompous.

This is also the first time that Charles Barkley has made a guest appearance as a reporter after the game, and he found Lin Li to interview.

“Hello!” Lin Li replied very politely, and then showed his humorous side and said, “Sir, why did you come to interview me, I thought it was a beautiful reporter from TNT who came to interview me!” ”

“You fellow!” Charles Barkley shook his head and said, “I didn’t expect Lin Li to be so!” It doesn’t look like it looks like ah! I’m so sad now! ”

Barkley pretended to be heartbroken, and then immediately straightened his face and asked:

“Congratulations, how does it feel to get your first win in the Western Conference semifinals?”

“Great, but a little numb.” Lin Li replied.

“Your words seem to be a little inflated… We can see that your adjustments today are very good, did you prepare before the game? Or pure on-the-spot adjustment! Charles Barkley continued to ask.

Lin Li shrugged: “It’s both, isn’t this what an NBA head coach should have!” Hopefully I’ll be able to do as well as I did today in the next game! But I have to see if the other side gives me such an opportunity! ”

Charles Barkley is not a person who is afraid of things, and immediately heard the meaning of Lin Li’s words, and he laughed: “Oh, Lin Li, do you mean that Thunder’s head coach Brooks didn’t give you enough pressure, hoping that he could put pressure on you in the next game?” ”

“Haha, it’s not how he wants to pressure me, but whether he has cards in his hand to make me feel pressure!” I hope the next game is the same as this one, without Westbrook! Lin Li said with a smile.
