the great gatsby

Chapter 555 This is Gatsby!
The Lakers' rotation lineup won a little bit, but it didn't win much because of Courtney Lee. Courtney Lee's state is also quite amazing tonight. He scored a three-pointer as soon as he came up. Fortunately, Jokic is strong enough to continue Responding at the basket, forcing the Grizzlies to shrink, the Lakers had an opportunity from the outside to barely close the score.

Gatsby came back in the second half and set off a frenzy to catch up with the score as soon as he came back, but the Grizzlies were really explosive tonight. Even Tony Allen scored three points. The Lakers scored 22 points in half a quarter. It was not able to close the point difference. At the end of the first half, the point difference remained at 8 points.

In the third quarter, the Grizzlies didn't flinch at all, especially Conley, the small guard who Gatsby saw once and for all, really broke out tonight. Gatsby didn't dare to switch defenses and caused a big delay for Gasol to go online, which was able to contain Conley's explosion.

But tonight the Lakers pressed the gourd to reveal the gourd, pressed Conley, Randolph also broke out, pulled Aldridge out consecutively, and then passed Aldridge with his feet, and succeeded in singles again and again. The two sides entangled until the fourth quarter With 3 minutes left, the Grizzlies still lead the score.

The Lakers have been chasing points, but they have been unable to catch up. Lakers fans are entangled in watching, but I have to say that such a game is really good!
At 3 minutes, Gatsby took the initiative to call a timeout on the court. After he came down, he discussed with Jim Iron and rearranged his tactics.

Lakers ball rights.

Gatsby passed the half court with the ball, Kobe came up to help Gatsby make a pick-and-roll, Gatsby broke through with the ball inside, Tony Allen entangled up, Gatsby pressed Tony Allen sideways and rolled in, Gatsby Although he doesn't have much advantage in terms of weight, his core strength is getting stronger and stronger. Tony Allen couldn't resist being rushed by Gatsby, and Randolph came to help defend from the basket. Cibi took off directly with a bolster and dunked Randolph!
With the score approaching 6 points, the Lakers had no problem with their offense.

Conley held the ball across half court, Gasol received the ball from the free throw line, turned around and passed it to Randolph who was off the line, Gasol directly let go of Gasol who pinched Randolph who was down the line, and Randolph raised his hand. The ball was passed to Pau Gaso who cut in the middle, Gatsby rushed over from the weak side, stabbed the basketball with one hand, and Alder grabbed the floor ball.

Gatsby received the ball and dribbled through the half court. First he gave the ball to Gasol, and then he turned to the inside. Er went to attack as usual, but this time Gatsby didn't pass the ball, and turned around and shot a jumper. Conley had no way to interfere, and could only watch helplessly as the basketball went into the basket.

This ball is Gatsby!

There are regular styles of play in the routine, and there are key styles of play at critical moments.

In normal times, the playing style is naturally to pursue reasonableness and coordination, and unexpectedly find opportunities for easy shots. But when it comes to chasing points, when it is time to highlight personal abilities, one must also do his part. This is the most terrifying thing about Gatsby. .

Once the game drags into the critical final moment, Gatsby will always show the ability to carry the whole game that is crushing!
Gatsby had two rounds, a sudden dunk, a steal, and a low single, directly closing the score to 4 points!
Coach Jogel called a timeout, and the terrible Gatsby appeared again, his heart was beating wildly, and his mind kept thinking of Gatsby scoring 80+ triple-doubles in front of him last season The scene is unstoppable like a demon god!
Timeouts are a good thing, they can wake up players, rearrange tactics, and interrupt the opponent's momentum, but timeouts cannot change Gatsby.

Pause back.

Conley held the ball at the top of the arc, and he wanted to try to use the pick-and-roll to beat Gasol's dislocation, but Gatsby suddenly pressed hard, and when Conley was sideways protecting the ball, he stabbed Conley's ball with one hand, and then jumped out like an arrow off the string , Picking up the ball first and directly hitting the transition, Conley slowed down after two steps after chasing, because he couldn't catch up at all!

There is no one in front, two points?
It doesn't exist. When Gatsby reaches a three-pointer, he directly pulls up the three-pointer and shoots!
Three point hit!

The Lakers closed the score to 1 point!
Coach Jorge's face turned red and white. He had already seen how the critics criticized him after the game. The Grizzlies led for 46 minutes, but were reversed by the Lakers in the last 2 minutes!

Fortunately, in the next round, Randolph insisted on Adelaide and forced the Grizzlies back to stop the bleeding. Coach Jogel was a little more stable, but the Lakers immediately responded with a three-pointer, and the score was evened!

Only 1 minute left!

The two sides are tied!

Coach Jogel called a timeout, the goal must be scored, otherwise the Grizzlies will lose the opportunity!

Who should play the key ball for this Grizzlies team now?
Randolph!
No one is more suitable than Randolph. Randolph catches the ball in the low post, and Aldridge is still defending him. Randolph hard-presses Aldridge, and suddenly turns around in the middle and completely passes Aldridge. Lakers fans Almost exclaimed—Pau Gasol has been pulled out, who else can stop him?
Randolph turns and throws.

A big hand appeared and picked the ball off the moment Randolph took action!

Take it off?

Eh?
After all, Kobe has rich experience, he rushed to the frontcourt immediately, and then the basketball flew straight from high altitude to the frontcourt, Kobe went to the basket to catch the ball and made a layup!

The Lakers overtook by two points, this is the Lakers' first lead in this game!
Gatsby!
It's Gatsby's catch!
This ball Gatsby went straight to the basket from the top of the arc, and at the moment Randolph made a shot, he grabbed the ball with one hand!
"He's always been able to do such stunning things, it's Gatsby!" Jeff Van Gundy said.

Well, only 30 seconds left.

The Grizzlies had no timeout, and Coach Jogel was about to rush into the field to give Mike Conley an opportunity. It's all spent up front and the ball is short.

Gatsby rushed in and took the ball off Gasol Jr.'s head, and then quickly advanced to the frontcourt. Now the Grizzlies are faced with a choice, should they foul early?

A foul means that Gatsby will be sent to the free throw line. With Gatsby's free throw shooting percentage, it is equivalent to sending points.But without fouling, Gatsby can wait until the last second to take action, leaving the Grizzlies maybe one or two seconds. Without a timeout, what can the Grizzlies do?
This is a proposition!

Conley sent Gatsby to the free throw line, which was the most favorable decision he felt-maybe Gatsby only made one shot?

Gatsby made two free throws.

Four points difference, 20 seconds.

Conley used the screen to single Gasol, Gatsby flanked, Gasol Jr. got a chance to shoot a three-pointer from the outside, but unfortunately, the three-pointer was missed.

The Grizzlies didn't foul again, and time was running out. The poor Grizzlies worked hard for the whole game and took the lead for the whole game. In the last 3 minutes, the Lakers reversed. This can be said to be fate!

The Staples Center is full of joy, and Gatsby is magnificent!
