Chapter 153
In the third quarter, Kobe directly scored a three-pointer when he came up. He was still a little worried about the missed buzzer at the end of the first half.

It's a pity that the ball didn't hit either. After Love got the rebound, he went straight to the fast break. DeRozan took the lead in the fast break and directly started to complete the dunk.

Lakers coach Jackson blew a whistle on the field, Kobe received the signal, showing that he was not angry, and the Lakers' offense did not mess around.

Kobe assisted his teammates the next two times and played very calmly.

However, there was another problem with Bynum. After the pick-and-roll cooperation, Love made a foul along the way.

For the fourth foul, Bynum left the game early again with a dazed look on his face.

Some players will keep calm after making too many fouls, but Bynum is obviously not. After he has foul problems, he plays more recklessly.

Le Fu goes down, he just needs to stabilize his position, it's completely brain-dead behavior to step forward.

After Odom played Bynum, the Lakers could only switch to attack mode.

Gasol was as stable as ever, but the difference was that in the second half, Odom honestly acted as an assistant to pass the ball to people. Gasol, Kobe and Odom led the team to pass the ball with three points.

A veteran like Fisher can really help sometimes.

He was a weak link in defense during the regular season, and Curry hit him casually, but in the playoffs, he can occasionally help the team with his experience, and the Lakers also let him stay on the court for a long time.

Not long after Bynum went down, he cheated a foul at the three-point line.

The Timberwolves' outside youngsters are sometimes really deceived by the old fritters. Ginobili did a lot in the last round. Fortunately, the old fish doesn't have the ability of Ginobili.

Kobe is willing to pass the ball, and when the rest of the Lakers can hit it, it is even more difficult to guard than Kobe's Wushuang.

Zhang Sixin can only emphasize that they will not give three points. Sometimes they can only give up struggling with Gasol's two points.

Of course, it was also because of the emphasis on three-point defense that Lao Yu was fooled by one.

"It would be great if Kevin was as stable as Gasol." Zhang Sixin said enviously.

"Kevin is not that flexible, but he is full of strength. He can withstand people inside." Ron Adams still likes Love who can resist.

"As for stability, it will definitely be no problem to exercise again."

"It's a hit... Kevin has three points." Tyronn Lu said a little excitedly.

Perhaps it was Love who sensed the expectations of the coaching staff, and his outside shot appeared.

In the first half, Love was only stronger than Gasol in rebounding, and his efficiency was not as good. In the third quarter, Gasol had already made two mid-range shots, and Love finally couldn't help it.

When Love is on the outside basket, he is also difficult to guard.

And Love started with two. The Lakers' offense in front had caught up the score. As a result, Love made two swipes to pull up the advantage again.

"This is the charm of three points..." Zhang Sixin sighed.

Love's tactical role is actually more abundant than that of Gasol. As long as he is stable, he is also very useful.

But he has no help defense, and he can't perform well at the fourth and fifth positions like Gasol. It is best to use Love with an insider who can help defend.

The two teams were supposed to have a defensive battle in the third quarter, but they suddenly started to attack each other.

It's not that the defense is bad, but that the offensive ends of both sides are up.

Of course, it also has something to do with defense. After Bynum went down, the Lakers actually took the lead in speeding up, and more opportunities appeared on the offensive end.

If one party speeds up, the other party will get more opportunities, no problem.

The trouble for the Lakers now is that the five players on the court are the five best at passing the ball, especially Kobe, Gasol and Odom.

Let them fight like this, basically there is no limit.

Zhang Sixin can only choose to wait. The current Lakers are the perfect model of the triangle offense. The defensive side is doomed to suffer, but they cannot always remain perfect on the offensive end.

If Kobe and Gasol can finish well for a relatively long time, the other three cannot.

Therefore, Zhang Sixin asked the players to defend against the three-pointer and point to the face. When the Lakers' offense is not so smooth, it is time for them to go crazy.

And if the three-point defense is done well, even if the Lakers take some advantage, it is impossible to bring the advantage all at once, so that the Timberwolves have the opportunity to wait for their opponents to show their flaws.

"Patience, you must be patient enough when you meet a strong team."

"If you feel impatient, then listen to the cheers of the fans around you. With so many people supporting us, we must do our best. Withstand this wave, the Lakers have no more options."

The Timberwolves' fighter execution ability is really nothing to say, the players have always been obedient and have a bonus of plug-ins.

So when the Lakers' offense was extremely smooth, they didn't suffer too much.

The team's interior has been scoring steadily, and the Lakers can't stand the big center without Bynum.

Both Love and Jefferson have gained, and Milicic also played very tough after coming up.

By the final few minutes of the third quarter, the Timberwolves' defense had some effect.

Except for Kobe and Gasol, the offensive success rate of the other Lakers teams has dropped to the limit.

Zhang Sixin was a little more relaxed, and he said that the Lakers could not always play a strong team basketball.

This judgment is not based on luck, but on the Timberwolves' defense.

Their defense is not fake, that is, All-Star-level players can handle it, and no one else can do the same.

The Lakers had already overtaken the score earlier, but after the offensive efficiency dropped, the Timberwolves turned the score over again.

They didn't gain much advantage, but it was impossible for the Lakers to take the lead all at once.

After all, the Timberwolves are now focusing on the inside, which is much more stable than the Lakers' offense.

Now it's time for the Lakers to worry, because as long as the Timberwolves maintain their current offensive and defensive efficiency, the current appearance of the Lakers cannot be followed.

But the Timberwolves are about to enter the rotation, and Zhang Sixin still wants Curry to go down and rest.

When Curry rests for a few minutes, the team will increase its defensive intensity, but the inside advantage will continue.

After finally having this opportunity, Zhang Sixin will not try to speed up according to the original plan.

Because he has been playing inside, not only Bynum has foul problems, but Odom is the same.

Although Odom is not very defensive inside the court, wouldn't it be better if he was replaced by a worse opponent.

The Lakers did not continue to go inside. They chose Artest to top the 1th position for a while, while Kobe played the entire second half without resting for a minute.

Zhang Sixin would like to say hello to the opposing head coach Jackson. The Lakers are leading 2-0 in the series. It is necessary to fight like this. Those who don’t know think that the Lakers are behind in the series.

Directly use big moves to fuck the main force, without talking about martial arts.
