The game was postponed, and the game was postponed.

Chapter 318 Injury occurs, and the legend speculates

The game continues.

It’s true that the stimulated Karl Malone and O’Neal both played extremely abnormal performances, like a flash of life.

First, the postman took advantage of the pick-and-roll with Kobe to cut into the inside and get 4 points, and then O’Neal also attacked the inside and got two free throws.

Moreover, he made 2 free throws and made 2 free throws, which was unprecedented.

82:78!

The difference between the two teams was reduced to only 4 points, and the suspense of the game returned.

This made the Lakers fans at the scene excited.

The Knicks coaching staff called a timeout in time.

D’Antoni replanned the strategy for everyone and encouraged them: “Guys, no matter what the result is, you must remember that we still have the opportunity for the next game, and remember not to get hurt.”

“The rest of you have to do is to go all out.”

Although the Knicks players could see the anxiety between D’Antoni’s eyebrows, the European old man who was only one step away from ascending the throne did not put pressure on them.

Indeed!

Now the Knicks only need to survive the last period of time, let alone a 4-point lead, even if it is 1 point, they will also complete the award ceremony at Staples, announcing the ascension of the new king and the fall of the Lakers dynasty.

But D’Antoni knew that haste makes waste, and to be honest, the game was played like this, which was beyond his expectations.

“Don’t worry, boss, it’s up to us next!”

When everyone remained silent, Wang Song’s firm eyes made D’Antoni feel at ease.

Whenever he saw the confident face of the Asian boy, D’Antoni was never disappointed.

According to his understanding of Wang Song, you can say that the latter is a “big talker”, but you can’t question that the results he brings are always satisfactory.

Timeout is over.

4 minutes and 15 seconds!

The Knicks are leading by four points and have an offensive opportunity.

It seems that the Knicks have all the advantages. Even if the game starts from now, as long as they can hold on with the Lakers, they will become the final winner.

But the Lakers fans at the scene are not stupid. They just saw the Lakers’ counterattack. The original 10-point lead was chased by the Lakers to only 4 points.

To be precise, according to the trend of the game before the timeout, it only takes about two rounds to complete the tie.

Of course, this is idealistic!

After being defeated by a 6:0 climax, the Knicks who came back directly broke the fantasy of the Lakers fans.

As Nash and Wang Song’s pick-and-roll cooperation attracted a lot of Lakers’ defensive attention, Houston in the bottom corner waited for an opportunity to move.

That’s right, the “mid-range shooting king” insisted on being on the court despite obvious muscle fatigue.

Because his accuracy is an indispensable part of the Knicks.

With an average of 5 three-point shots per game this season and a hit rate of about 43%, although he is called the king of mid-range shots, Alan Houston’s accuracy is definitely in the first echelon.

Because of this, while the Lakers’ defense was in chaos, two defenders still rushed to Houston.

At this critical juncture, the players on the court can be said to be highly nervous.

No one wants to let the opponent score easily because of their own reasons!

Kobe is the most paranoid guy.

But he paid the price for his paranoia this time.

From the top of the arc to the bottom line, seeing that Houston was about to complete the shot, he jumped and flew over.

Directly knocked Houston to the ground.

For the Lakers, the good news is… there is no good news.

Because the ball was shot before Kobe flew over, and fell into the basket after drawing a beautiful arc in the air.

The three-pointer is valid, and there is a penalty!

If there is no good news for the Lakers, then it must be all good news for the Knicks.

If this wave of 4 points is successful, the Knicks will have a 4-point lead at this critical juncture.

But things don’t go as planned!

Just as the Knicks teammates were about to rush up to celebrate with Houston, the latter fell to the ground, holding his knees with a painful expression.

Soon, all the Knicks players surrounded him.

The Knicks players on the bench stood up and looked over.

D’Antoni, who had just shown a happy expression on his face, walked forward quickly, and seeing Houston with crow’s feet wrinkled, he felt something was wrong.

He quickly looked at the game time – 3 minutes and 56 seconds, the game was only

Just continued one round.

However, D’Antoni didn’t care about anything else at this time. He quickly called the team doctor to come forward and asked the medical team to prepare a stretcher.

Kobe, who rolled on the ground for two rounds, stood up. It can be seen that he felt guilty. He wanted to bend down to ask about Houston’s situation.

But he was pushed aside by the irritable Kurt Thomas.

“Dirty, do you have to be hypocritical? If you can’t win, you will kick? Do you know that Alan has been injected with a closed shot? Your unnecessary defense may directly lead to his career being written off.”

“In order to win, you really do whatever it takes! What a Lakers core, hehe.”

Kurt Thomas’s passionate microphone made Kobe, who was originally a little guilty, suddenly feel a little angry. This guy was not polite when he bumped into him.

But facing the angry eyes of more than a dozen Knicks players on the court, he left the scene of the crime in disgrace.

In other words, the Knicks without Houston are also a manifestation of weakened combat power.

The Lakers now have to seize every minute to study the next game and seize any chance of winning, just like what Kobe has been doing.

In the stands.

“Damn Los Angeles people, they actually resorted to such dirty tricks to win!”

Ewing gritted his teeth, looking unhappy.

On the other side.

The three Lakers legends sitting behind the Lakers players looked at the Lakers who were discussing the next game plan intensively and started a discussion.

“Mr. Kareem, what are the chances of the Lakers winning now?”

James Worthy can be said to be the young man who does not have a thorough understanding of the game among the three. He was a little confused by the complicated game.

Accidents became the main theme of this game.

Kareem Abdul-Jabbar first raised five fingers, then said: “50%, to be honest, even if it is 60%, it is difficult to win when we are eight points behind!”

Jerry West on the side smiled innocently: “More than 50%? In my opinion, the Lakers’ chance of winning is 70% at least. If the OK players can find their touch, it is not impossible to reach 80%.”

Kremlin Abdul-Jabbar and Worthy looked at the LOGO man with curiosity, wondering how he came up with this outrageous statement.

“It’s very simple. Before the game, I got a message that the Knicks’ No. 20 kid (Houston) played with a closed game.”

“You can think backwards, his importance to the Knicks…”

After Jerry West said this, the other two really felt like they had suddenly realized something.

Since Alan Houston’s positioning for the team is to stay on the court even if he is closed, then his importance to the Knicks is naturally self-evident.
