If Kobe is allowed to continue messing around, then this game is likely to be lost.

I looked at the game time and saw that the first quarter was almost over, so there was no need to waste a timeout.

Phil Jackson did not request a timeout and wanted to give Kobe Bryant some mental work during the break.

On the court, Sun Yi broke through with the ball, attracted the defense, and distributed the ball.

Tolliver, who was lying in ambush in the bottom corner, received the pass and threw the basketball in his hand before Gasol arrived.

"Whoosh!"

The basketball hits the net hollowly and hits the target steadily!

In the next round, Kobe succeeded in a post-up and hit a fadeaway jumper against Sun Yi's defense, scoring 2 points.

At this time, there are only a few seconds left before the end of the first quarter.

The Warriors quickly sent a baseline ball, and Sun Yi immediately passed the ball to Ellis after receiving the ball.

The time was up soon. After receiving the ball, Xiao Gongju directly faced the defense and shot a long three-pointer.

The trajectory of the shot was ridiculously off, and naturally it failed to hit the buzzer.

Just like that, the first quarter ended, and the score on the big screen was 22-26, with the Warriors leading by 4 points.

The inter-section break is over and the second quarter begins.

During the rotation phase, the Warriors were led by Curry, while the Lakers were led by Bynum.

Therefore, the offensive methods of the two teams are completely opposite.

The Warriors relied on Curry to bombard him from the outside.

The Lakers, on the other hand, relied on Little Shark to make a comeback in the paint.

But a three-pointer is always one more than a two-pointer, so the Warriors have a slight advantage.

When the game lasted about 4 minutes in the second quarter, the head coaches of both teams replaced the main players on the field one after another.

After the substitution adjustment, Sun Yi found that Naochi was not playing in random isolations and began to play the Lakers' classic triangle offense seriously.

Facing the defending champion with full firepower, the Warriors' current lineup was naturally unable to withstand it. The previous lead was slowly eroded and even overtaken.

At the end of the half, the score displayed on the big screen was 56 to 52. The Lakers led by 4 points entering the second half.

The short 15-minute intermission ended and the second half began.

As soon as the third quarter started, Curry hit a difficult three-pointer from the outside, sounding the clarion call for a counterattack.

Immediately afterwards, the Lakers failed to score, and the Warriors launched a defensive counterattack.

Sun Yi dribbled to the outside of the three-point line, faked a shot to attract the defense, then circled the basketball behind him and passed the ball with a flick of his wrist.

Curry, who followed up from the right, received the pass and shot a three-pointer without any hesitation.

A swish sound!

Hollow into the net!

56:58!

With Curry's two three-pointers, the Warriors once again took the lead!

The Lakers fell behind again, but the Lakers players on the court remained calm and composed, playing as they should, showing the qualities of the defending champion.

In this round of offense, the Lakers changed their style of play and sped up the passing movement and player movement.

Artest used his reverse run to get rid of the defense and quickly cut toward the basket.

Gasol, who was holding the ball in the high post, had quick eyes and quick hands and hit the ground to pass the ball.

Artest, who was running, received the pass and made a layup before the Warriors players arrived.

In the next few rounds, the two sides fought hard and each scored points.

The Warriors rely on Sun Yi to direct the offense, with Curry and Ellis serving as the end points.

For the Lakers, Kobe Bryant served as the starting point for the offense, with Gasol providing high-post support to create scoring opportunities for other teammates.

In this way, in the third quarter, the two sides were evenly matched, no one took advantage, and the point difference was not widened.

At the end of the third quarter, the score was 84 to 82, and the Lakers led by 2 points entering the fourth quarter.

The short inter-section break is over and the fourth quarter begins.

As soon as it came up, the Lakers started to play nonsense again.

Sun Yi smiled knowingly when he saw this situation.

In his memory, this Lakers team is indeed very strong, but they have a fatal flaw, that is, they like to seek death.

During the regular season, the Lakers often lost to some weak teams just because they liked to seek death.

This is also a problem that many teams that have just won a championship will encounter.

After winning the championship, the players' mentality changed. They didn't pay much attention to the regular season games. They thought that they could enter the playoffs by just playing a few games, and the playoffs were the stage where they really showed their strength.

Immediately, Sun Yi called his teammates together and exchanged a few words. He wanted to take advantage of such a good opportunity to widen the point difference and could not wait for the Lakers players to react.

The other Warriors players nodded and agreed to Sun Yi's suggestion.

In the next round, Sun Yi used the double cover of his teammates to rush into the penalty area.

When he saw that Artest was the only one who rushed back to the basket to defend, he directly engaged in physical confrontation and relied on Artest to forcefully tie the game to two plus one.

"Good shot! Son played very resolutely on this shot, showing his toughness." Barkley praised.

"If this was Artest at his peak, Sun might be lying on the floor." Kenny Smith joked against Barkley.

On the court, Sun Yi stood on the free throw line, blocked out the noise from the audience, withstood the pressure and steadily hit extra free throws.

The ball is transferred and the Lakers attack.

In this round, the Lakers quickly passed the ball, and finally Kobe made a fadeaway jumper against Sun Yi's defense.

The basketball hit the front edge of the basket and bounced out.

Bynum jumped up hard to grab the offensive rebound.

Just as he took off for the second time to attack the frame, he suddenly felt a huge force coming from him, causing the basketball to escape.

Sun Yi jumped up from behind Little Shark and slapped Bynum's raised basketball away.

The Lakers sent a baseline pass, and Gasol found Kobe and passed the ball.

At this moment, Sun Yi, as if he had eyes in the back of his head, turned around and jumped up, stretching his arms to intercept the basketball in the air.

As he landed, he threw the ball behind his head.

Sun Yi didn't just throw the ball randomly. Before that, he used his peripheral vision to see his teammates who were making a fast break.

Curry, who was sprinting forward, received the pass, came outside the three-point line, and hit a three-pointer.

On the Lakers bench, Phil Jackson shook his head helplessly.
Chapter completed!
