Travel back to be a superstar

Chapter 262 The situation is pressing
In the studio, Yang Yi and Su Qun nervously watched the broadcasted images.

"The Lakers' starting lineup is still Lonzo, Dashan, Ingram, Parsons, and Lopez. The Clippers' starting lineup seems to be specially targeting the Lakers. Today, I'm afraid it will be a hard fight!" Yang Yi shook his head worriedly.

Su Qun answered, "For the Clippers, Rivers Jr. will be the starting point guard. The prince's ability is considered Zhongshan level for the Clippers' guards; Beverly plays the point guard, but I believe his task today is not to score, but to stare at Dashan. If Dashan is marked to death by the Lakers, then the balance of victory will fall to the Clippers! Gallinari small forward, Griffin power forward, and Jordan center!"

"The game started. Jordan got the ball for the Clippers. The ball came to Rivers, crossed the center line, passed it to Gallinari, broke through, passed it back to Griffin on the left wing, and Griffin made a three-pointer! . . . Hit! 3-0, the Clippers lead! Griffin has also started to shoot three-pointers this season. Although it can't be regarded as accurate, his 35% shooting rate is still passable!"

The Lakers attacked, and no matter how Jiang Dashan ran, Beverly stuck to him tightly, which made Lon Zuo have no chance to pass the ball to Jiang Dashan.

Lon Zuo came to the top of the arc and signaled Pa Shuai to come out for the pick-and-roll.

Jiang Dashan suddenly sped up and ran down the baseline. Lopez put his hands on his chest to help him block Beverly. It was true that Beverly was blocked by Lopez, but Gallinari went straight to the defense to prevent Jiang Dashan from receiving the ball. Beverly immediately switched defenses with Gallinari and went to cover Ingram.

Lonzo used the pick-and-roll to break through. Seeing that Jiang Dashan blocked a Gallinari in front of him, he had to put the ball into Ingram's hands.

Ingram took a step in from the left wing, singled Beverly in the high position, made two tentative steps, and then made a direct pull, and missed!The rebound was taken by Jordan Jr.

The Clippers attacked, and Griffin scored 2 points again with an air cut layup. Then, during the Lakers offense, Jiang Dashan still had difficulty touching the ball, running, and Beverly clung to him; in the pick-and-roll, the big man immediately switched defenses.Griffin takes care of Pashuai all the time.So the Lakers' offensive point is only Lonzo and Ingram!

But obviously, the hit rate of these two people can only be described as horrible, especially Lon Zuo, who only hit [-]% of the two points!

In the first quarter, the Lakers' offense was blocked, there was no drift like before, the ball couldn't be passed, and the shot couldn't make a shot!The new captain of the Clippers showed off his power and hit 5 goals in a row, leading the Clippers to beat the Lakers 18-0.

At this time, only 3 minutes had passed in the first quarter!

"The Lakers, you can't play like this, you have to quickly come up with a countermeasure!" Yang Yi shook his head, a little worried.

Similarly, worry was written on Su Qun's face, "Not only that, the first quarter of the Nuggets game is over, and the Nuggets are 32 to 24, leading the Timberwolves by 8 points! Anyway, the Lakers must strive to win the Clippers. As long as the Lakers win the Clippers, they will be in the playoffs. The Lakers are currently ranked second in the Pacific Division, ahead of the Warriors; while the Nuggets are ranked third in the Northwest Division, ahead of the Timberwolves and Thunder. Steadily enter the playoffs! Similarly, if both teams lose, the Lakers will also enter the playoffs! But at present, the Nuggets have great hopes of winning!"

How could Wharton not understand this truth!
18 to 0, slapped the Lakers fans, a big slap in the face!Also gave Wharton a big slap in the face.

Amidst the cheers of the Clippers fans, Walton quickly called a timeout.Although the Clippers have been aiming at their own formations, even if they change players, it may be difficult to change the current situation, but I just hope that the players will explode.

"Lon Zuo, I need you to rest now, can you?" Wharton's first change was to let Lon Zuo come down and let Jiang Dashan hold the ball. Since he couldn't pass the ball to Jiang Dashan, let him hold the ball directly.

"Yes!" In just a few minutes, Lonzo's whole body was soaked, not only from the intensity of the game, but also from the pressure of the game.

"Ingram, take a break too!" Wharton turned to look at Ingram.

Ingram nodded.

"Clarkson, Nance Jr., you two. Now, J holds the ball to organize the offense, Nance Jr., Parsons, you two must run non-stop, and hit the basket whenever you have a chance. As long as you have a chance, J will pass the ball as soon as possible, understand?"

Pashuai and Xiao Nance nodded.

"Lopez, you play more pick-and-rolls, and then stay on the outside. If you have a chance, shoot three-pointers! The Clippers' inside line is not something we can compete with, so let's pull it out and play! Once Jordan comes out, you will break through. After that, everything depends on you!" Walton turned to look at Jiang Dashan, "Beverly, is there a problem?"

"No problem, coach!" Jiang Dashan smiled knowingly.

"Okay, it's not that I want to put pressure on you, but that we must win this game! Work hard!" Walton clapped his hands and signaled the players to come on, and the time-out time has come.

The Lakers re-entered the field, and Pashuai gave the ball to Jiang Dashan from the bottom line. He had just arrived near the center line, and Beverly had already posted it. Obviously, the old Rivers had a good idea.

"I will let you have a good memory!" Beverly smiled at Jiang Dashan disdainfully, "J!" At the same time, he called out Jiang Dashan's nickname heavily.

Jiang Dashan ignored Hei Bei's provocation. At this time, talking trash to each other would only make him feel more confused!
Hei Bei directly came up to stick to Jiang Dashan, Jiang Dashan turned his back to Hei Bei, protected the ball, then turned around and accelerated, Beverly extended his arms and still stuck to Jiang Dashan, and at the same time squeezed Jiang Dashan to the outside.Near the right wing, there was an emergency stop, and then pulled back his body. Beverly was caught off guard, and Jiang Dashan and him finally came to a distance of more than one meter.

Jiang Dashan didn't even think about it, he just made a three-pointer, and just jumped up, he was shocked, and the little Rivers on the side was still defending!

Before he could think about it, Jiang Dashan made a cross in the air and gave it to Clarkson. Clarkson had an empty space at this time and directly shot a three-pointer!

"Good shot! Clarkson scored 3 points for the Lakers! It's not easy!" Yang Yi and Su Qun looked at each other with bitterness in their eyes! "Dashan still has the restraining power. The current tactics of the Clippers are to defend against Dashan and not let him shoot! Dashan breaks through and gets rid of, and there are people to help defend him. If he sees something wrong, he will come up to make up. Dashan can't score."

Su Qun swallowed his saliva, and continued, "Although this will leave open space for other Lakers players, it will consume a lot of energy for Dashan. If we continue to play like this, we will be exhausted before the second half!"

Wharton also realized this situation, Xiao came over and patted Wharton on the shoulder, at this moment, Xiao's hands were covered with sweat.The two looked at each other and smiled wryly. "You don't want J to play the full 48 minutes!" Shaw sniffed.

Walton sighed, "If you want to go further, you have to provoke a team like James did. After all, the difference between the Lakers and the Cavaliers is too great! I think J is already ready to play for 48 minutes!"

On the field, the Clippers missed two consecutive attacks, while the Lakers, under the organization of Jiang Dashan, scored 4 points in a row, 7 to 18, and the point difference was still more than 10 points.

On the other side of the court, the old Rivers looked contemptuous, as if telling the Lakers and Lakers supporters, there is no way for the playoffs!

At 8 and a half minutes into the first quarter of the game, the Lakers and Clippers battled 16 to 25, and the point difference has returned to within 10 points. Rivers made adjustments, letting Beverly take control, replacing Rivers Jr. and Lu Wei, while the other players were replaced by substitutes.

Lu Wei's appearance put a lot of pressure on the Lakers. Lu Wei is the Clippers' second firepower besides Griffin.

Sure enough, as soon as Lu Wei came on the court, he came down and hit two unreasonable three-pointers in a row to help the Clippers open the score.

After the first quarter, the Lakers trailed by 28 points 36 to 8.

In the second quarter, Wharton deliberately let Jiang Dashan take a break, let Lonzo play, and other substitutes also played a game; the old Rivers let Teodosic play point guard, Lu Wei played point guard, and Hei Bei rested.

"Old Rivers is too vicious! Hei Bei just stares at Dashan without doing anything!" Yang Yi smiled wryly for a while, and managed to utter a few words.

"Yeah, and Hei Bei is currently defending pretty well. Dashan didn't take a shot in the entire first quarter, but only assisted. However, 12 assists in a single quarter is not bad. Almost every point of the Lakers comes from his assists. However, Dashan's physical exertion is too great! Look, close-up, sweating, gasping for breath. Distressed!" Su Qun frowned, "I hope the Lakers can have a surprise player!"

After more than 3 minutes in the second quarter, the Clippers' substitutes and the Lakers were evenly divided, 36 to 44, still with eight points.

Walton and Rivers Sr. looked across the court, both of them watching to see who could lose their composure first.

At 5 minutes and 11 seconds of the second quarter, the two sides paused, and Walton called. Obviously, the situation on the field has been unable to open up, and the Lakers are getting more and more disadvantaged.

Put on the main force, and the two sides started fighting.Beverly's restrictions on Jiang Dashan have always been good. Although he made several fouls, Jiang Dashan, who scored 3 of 1 in the half and scored 6 points only by free throws, was considered very successful.

. . .

三节打完，湖人队78比90落后12分，格里芬拿到26分12篮板，小乔丹1分16篮板，路威20分。

湖人队这边，姜大山8中4，罚球10中10，拿到18分12助攻的两双；洛佩兹12分，帕帅16分，小南斯8分8篮板，克拉克森12分，英格拉姆8中1，拿到4分；郎佐5中0。

Before the fourth quarter started, Walton announced the bad news, "The Nuggets have already won!"

"The Nuggets beat the Timberwolves on the road! Now, the pressure is all on the Lakers!" Yang Yi and Su Qun said in the studio.

All Lakers fans have a big stone hanging in their hearts.
