The Lakers lead by 1 point.

The opponent still chose star tactics. It was too risky to give role players at this time. Paul cut in and threw the ball. The ball was madly bitten by Beverley and interfered wildly. The shot was not stable. It missed the ball and the Lakers got the rebound.

ball.

Then he turned around and passed it to Tang Qian. Tang Qian pushed in with his upper back, made a low hook, and hit the target.

Capela was about to faint. He simply felt that his defense was useless in front of the opponent.

The Lakers led by three points. Harden made a "touch" at this time, which was very critical. In addition, Butler made a slightly fiercer attack, and it was immediately a foul... Harden also... made a damn shot.

However, this ball can be regarded as a relatively standard foul. It is indeed because Butler pounced too hard, not because Harden was too "active".

Butler is very frustrated. Another key goal was scored by his opponent. Do you think he is annoyed or not?

Harden added a penalty, shot, hit, and tied again with 1 minute and 3 seconds left.

The Lakers paused and arranged tactics, but it didn't seem to work well, because Butler seemed to be affected by the ball just now, and his spirit was a little lowered. He almost made a mistake in passing the ball. No wonder he, he has almost missed it for so many years.

Now, I feel frustrated when I encounter Harden. I have never been happy once. Now that I have failed in a key defense, it is inevitable that I will feel even more depressed.

Everyone who plays basketball is still a human being, not a machine. Mood and morale can sometimes affect a lot of things.

Fortunately, Lance Stephenson saved the ball by diving out and hitting the ground.

Pierce is very experienced in this ball. He made a tentative breakthrough and attracted the attention of the defense. He immediately shot the ball with one hand and stuffed it to the inside. Just now, everyone's attention was on Stephenson's save and Pierce. For a while, the Rockets' defensive formation was slightly confused.

, Pierce seized this opportunity and let the ball go in, creating a basically undefended opportunity for Tang Qian.

Tang Qian pulled up the ball and dunked it. Boom, the Lakers took the lead by 2 points again.

This time Harden was severely double-teamed, and he had to play the ball. The man he is now is not the man he will be a few years from now. Facing fierce double-teams by himself, it is actually difficult for him to withstand it. And Harden is like this

, when faced with overly fierce defense and the most critical rounds, his desire to take over the game is not particularly strong. So the basketball is in Paul's hands. Seeing that Harden has no chance, Paul is of course the first choice to pass the ball.

Paul attacked and faced Beverley's super strong bite. Yes, Beverley went up to do this. The Lakers also made it clear to him, if you bite Paul, then tonight, you

He is one of the great contributors. Beverley is very fierce, and at the last moment, the referee is not likely to give the whistle easily, and he has not received an order from above to control the game, so everything will be the same as before.

According to traditional game rules, the players decide the game at the last moment.

After Paul made several changes, he took the shot. Beverley defended the ball very well and basically stopped the ball. He pounced on Paul the moment he took the shot, causing a very good shooting interference.

This ball...should be a miss~~~

The Lakers started to stall for time, at least spending a little more time before attacking. Because the opponent still had another chance to attack, they did not choose to foul directly. Otherwise, they might give up points. Beverley's free throws were also about 80%, plus

He fought hard and was in good form tonight. It's really not a wise move for you to let him go to the free throw line.

At this time, it was Paul Pierce again. He backed up and retreated, causing his opponent to foul and go to the free throw line.

Unfortunately, maybe because of his old age and his high physical exertion, he only made one free throw, leading by 3 points. The Lakers retreated quickly to prevent the Rockets from making a quick push. The Rockets paused and wanted to come back up.

To Harden, but the Lakers surrounded him tightly, making it difficult for Harden to catch the ball. In addition to Harden's own lack of willingness to take over the game, there is another problem that many people ignore.

That's because Harden's ability to force his way out of the ball and catch the ball in high-intensity games is not good. You will know this if you look at how Jordan, Kobe and the others caught the ball at the last moment.

There is a big gap between several people. This is also an ability. Because everyone knows that you will definitely be the first passing option at this time, and the intensity and pertinence of your defense will be stronger, so you can get rid of it at this time and kill

Getting the ball out of a tight circle is actually a skill, a hard ability.

It's a pity that Harden may not have this ability in his lifetime.

He was suppressed and quickly gave up, and then let Paul get the ball.

Paul used a pick-and-roll for this ball, and then took a top shot. Beverley interfered, but... it still went in!!!

3 point shot!!!

The whole audience was sighing. If he didn't score, the game would have been decided. But after all, he was a superstar. Although Paul's offensive efficiency in the last period was not very good, he still made the key shot. That was enough.

Foley was also a little upset, because he felt that there was no problem with his defense, it was just that the opponent forced the shot in.

This made his previous defensive highlights somewhat diluted.

Fans are forgetful, and the final decision on the ball is the key. This is the same whether it is football or basketball.

The Lakers also immediately called for a timeout. Larry Brown planned to play this ball to the outside. He thought that there would be a heavy accumulation of troops inside, because he knew that Tang Qian was too lethal and did not dare to let it go easily. He made a pick-and-roll.

After setting up, come back on the court. Plan a is for Butler to take the shot, plan b is for Butler to take the shot or the offense is unfavorable, immediately implement one side to open up, and give it to Pierce on the other side to attack with the ball.

However, the situation of this ball was unexpected. When passing the ball, Paul actually touched it...Does Paul really want to complete the final redemption? No! At this time, Rondo, who was replaced again, gave full play to his strengths.

With his arm advantage, he touched the ball. But looking at Paul's speed and his distance, he probably couldn't catch the ball, so he had to use other methods to quickly pass the ball out.

At least you can't give your opponent a chance.

Rondo had an idea and swatted the ball away without being able to catch it. The direction the ball fell was exactly to the low right side.

Mike D'Antoni knew something was wrong at the first sight, and shouted, asking everyone to pay attention to the low post, pay attention to the inside, and pay attention to the Lakers' No. 29. But it was still a step too late. Tang Qian used his huge physical advantage to directly squeeze away the defender.

, caught the ball. At this time, the Rockets people rushed forward in a rush, rushing towards No. 29.

At this time, Larry Brown seemed to see an opportunity and shouted loudly from the sidelines:

Pass the ball! Hot! Our No. 31 strategy is in place!!!!!!!!!!!!

Yes, the final position of tactics No. 31 is that there will be a person in the bottom corner, standing, waiting for the three-point shot.

The person standing in that place now is Ariza.

Ariza himself is a little nervous now. Shooting this kind of ball is really stressful.

But now he had no choice but to swallow a mouthful of saliva, concentrate hard, and prepare to take action.

But what everyone didn't expect was... No. 29 of the Lakers, the Oriental center, he actually didn't mean to pass the ball at all, he just hit the ball, roared, and started to rise!!!

"Stop him!!!!!!!!!" Mike D'Antoni shouted from the sidelines.

The Rockets have so many people here now, so they should be able to...

Tianchao Sports Channel.

"This shot is not reasonable. I think this is still... oh, this... a good shot!!! This is how it should be played!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

!” Yao Ming:…….Meteor Shower:…….

At the Staples Center, Bill McDonald also made a big turn:

This goal was chosen to be forced? But there are many people around me, this is too reluctant...oh~~~Go in, go in!!!!!! Go in!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

!!!!!!! Not forcing!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Not forcing at all!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

!!!!!!!!!!!!Beautiful!!!!!!!!!!!!Wonderful!!!!!!!!!

Not only that, but an...and.one!!!

Because too many people hit and violated the ball, the referee was embarrassed not to call the ball, and felt a little sorry for his conscience.

No one on the Rockets complained about the whistle, because only they knew how hard they violated the ball.

There is no problem at all when the referee gives the whistle, it is fair, but there is something wrong if he doesn't give it.

And Tang Qian shook his hand, stood on the free throw line, made the extra penalty...hit!!!

40th point of the game!!!

The Lakers lead by 3 points.

The Rockets still didn't give up on this shot and called a timeout, but the Lakers' defense was too tight. In the end... Harden actually chose to be James. There was really no chance, so scoring 2 points was not bad. At least for himself.

The scoring can also be improved a little bit. He hit a 2-pointer. The Lakers didn't bother to care about him, lest he get hit and it would be useless.

After the goal, Harden's score climbed to 30 points, but there was only 0.5 seconds left in the game. As soon as Rondo of the Lakers touched the ball, he deliberately threw a super high-altitude long pass as quickly as possible. The basketball was still there.

Time ran out in the air, and the Lakers defeated the Rockets 100-99 with a 1-point shot and won the first victory in the series.

Although Harden scored in the end, according to NBA official rules, it cannot be considered a buzzer beater.

But it was a near-win, scoring a key goal and helping the team win.

Lakers vs. Rockets, currently leading 1-0.
