Comfortable days always pass quickly, and the Lakers are about to play back-to-back away again, and it is in the Eastern Conference.

On March 6, the Lakers came to Detroit.

The Pistons are also a team that is basically hopeless in the playoffs. They have not done well in the past two years and have relied on rookies to support this season.

Monroe and Knight, these are Xiang Chu's teammates in the rookie tournament, and Xiang Chu still wants to fight with them.

He was very handsome before playing against the Heat, but in this game, Kobe started to make a fuss again.

The team's boss is not stable enough, which is also one of the reasons why the Lakers' record is not ideal enough.

The data has not deteriorated compared to before, but the number of shots has increased.

The Pistons are also weak. When the team has the advantage of both inside lines, the Lakers are still ahead.

When Xiang Chu came on stage, Monroe had already stopped.

Although Monroe is the Pistons' first attack power now, Rodney Starki, the player they controls the rhythm of the game. When they see that the inside is not advantageous, the Pistons immediately entered the small lineup mode.

But a small lineup is not just pure offense, someone must assist in defense in the interior. The Pistons do not have such a player.

After Xiang Chu went up, he immediately scored 4 points with the frontcourt rebound.

The Pistons had no choice but to go to the inside line, and the one they lined up was veteran Ben Wallace.

For Xiang Chu, Ben Wallace seems to be a character in the live TV broadcast. When Ben fought against O'Neal, Xiang Chu also watched it with relish.

Ben Wallace, who is 38 years old, still has good strength and can rely on experience to grab rebounds, but his speed and reaction are much slower, and there is not even a slight threat on the attack end.

Once the physical fitness of a short insider decreases, the impact on his strength will be devastating.

The Pistons sent Ben Wallace, but the inside defense still did not improve much, but it still had a certain effect on the protection of the backcourt rebounds.

When Xiang Chu came to an end, the Lakers had already led by 10 points.

But at this time, the Pistons unexpectedly began to counterattack. Their sixth man, Gordon and Starkey, joined forces to score 20 points. Kobe's touch was still not good on the Lakers, and the opponent even widened the score gap in half a quarter and surpassed 4 points.

During the halftime break, everyone was a little unbelievable, and the Pistons overtook them with a spate of shots from the outside, which was a bit unacceptable.

However, the opponent has only two strong points, and can completely defend targetedly.

In fact, the Lakers still have some way to deal with singles-type outside, but no one is executing it now, and the defense of several players in the backcourt is too weak.

In the third quarter, the Lakers played extremely strong defense, and the Pistons scored no double points.

But they just led by 7 points in turn, and the advantage was not obvious.

In the last quarter, Starkey, who had no rest, played unparalleled again and overtook the score in a few minutes.

What the Lakers are most afraid of is that some people are unparalleled on the outside, and the opponent is shooting on the outside. No matter how assisted the Lakers defend in the inside, it is useless. They have been thrown to death by many people before.

Stucky is actually not the type of explosive score, but today he is in a very brave state.

After the Pistons caught up, the two sides were in a stalemate, and the scores also rose alternately.

At 49 seconds, Artest successfully counterattacked after stealing, and the Lakers took the lead by 1 point.

But at 9 seconds, Starkey hit a three-pointer against a magical defense, and the Pistons overtook 2 points.

In the last moment, Kobe made a strong shot, dragging the game into overtime.

After the disaster, the people in the Lake were full of anger and were waiting to get the opponent in overtime.

Unexpectedly, Sestaki was still as helpful as a god in overtime and could not be defended.

Kobe, who just hit the buzzer, no longer felt the touch, and he made several consecutive blows to ruin the game.

Xiang Chu looked a little frustrated when he looked down. Kobe could force his score at critical moments, but sometimes it also makes people sigh.

The teams in overtime had 100% hit percentage, but the team did not play better offensive tactics. Kobe and Artest both chose three-pointers. It was obvious that their three-pointers were not the scoring method they were good at.

Losing to a team that scored less than double-digit points in a single quarter, the Lakers are also magical.

Everyone was feeling a little depressed, but they still had to rush to Washington non-stop.

In the evening, Xiang Chu was in the hotel, and Olivia sent a message online, and the two started chatting.

"Why don't the Lakers let you play more? You obviously play the best."

"How about you say I applied to get a degree from a school in Los Angeles?"

Olivia knows whether she has a slight understanding of basketball. Xiang Chu usually doesn't discuss it with her, but just talks about interesting things casually.

I didn’t think that after Olivia returned to Canada, Xiang Chu was sometimes a little uncomfortable, so he started chatting with the girl online.

"It seems you're quite idle. Why don't you promote me in Canada? If I have fans in Canada, I'll treat you to a big meal."

"A small matter."

Although the Lakers are back-to-back away from the East this time, both opponents are weak.

However, the Lakers are all 50% off against anyone, so it doesn't matter whether they are a slim or not.

The Wizards are now also a rookie, and Wall, the No. 1 pick last year.

All teams that are mainly on the outside are worthy of the Lakers' guard against. Before this game, Mike Brown set up a defense against Wall.

The Lakers played very hard since the beginning of the game, and they are not qualified to despise the weak team now.

This time their tactics were executed very well, with Wall's clean sheet in the first quarter, and Kobe scored in double digits, helping the team to successfully grasp the initiative on the court.

Xiang Chu also played very comfortably after he came on the court. The Wizards did not have a good inside line with rebounds at all. McGee, who was slightly stronger, would not appear during the rotation period.

Xiang Chu gained all his rebounds and scored, helping the team expand their lead to double digits.

Wall still didn't score, but he didn't seem to be in a hurry, but instead focused on organizing.

In fact, the Wizards' offense in the first half was not too bad. The Lakers' offense played very well, and they performed all three strong points, and the main time and rotation time suppressed the opponent.

The Lakers' strategy did not change in the second half, and they were at most 21 points.

It felt stable, but Kobe kept firing irons.

Kobe's personality is that he has to continue shooting even if he can't make a shot. The more he can't make a shot, the less chance he has to take action.

Importantly, although Wall's score is still limited, some of the Wizards have become unparalleled.

Their substitute Nick Young stood up and scored in various singles.

This situation is not surprising, because like the 76ers, the players with the strongest scoring ability are substitutes.

In 7 minutes, the gap between 21 points became only 2 points.

Logically, Mike Brown should have adjusted as the Lakers head coach, but Kobe has been slamming and he has not replaced him and calmed down, which has caused a very embarrassing situation.

In the final quarter, Mike Brown still refused to let Kobe rest, Nick Young continued to play unparalleled, and the Wizards overtook until the end.
Chapter completed!
