Chapter 421 Kobe is injured
Famal and the team doctor carried Bynum towards the locker room. Every time Bynum was injured, it had a great impact on the team. Last season was directly reimbursed, and the Lakers bench was covered with a layer.
shadow.
"Phil, what should we do next?" asked the assistant coach.
The injury of a team player will have a great impact on the next arrangement, and the team must respond quickly.
"Odom, next you will reach the power forward position, Gasol will play center! No other changes are made, pay attention to the cooperation between teammates, Odom, the task of assisting James will be given to you, don't foul it easily
!” Phil made an emergency response.
Phil did not make any improvements to the Cavaliers' outside line. He did not think that James could persist in the whole game with such a strong attack. Even if he persisted in the whole game, the Lakers would not be afraid.
James held the ball and continued to force Li Tian.
After continuous back-to-back, he did not get a chance to pass the ball, so he had to dribble the ball back to the outside line and attack again.
After coming to the outside, James stood outside the three-point line and tried to break through several times. Facing Li Tian's single defense, he never broke through to the inside line, and could only make a strong three-pointer from the outside!
"Touch!" Things went against my wishes, James' three-pointer had not yet been trained.
Gasol squeezed out Big Z, grabbed the defensive rebound, and handed it to Li Tian, and took the ball over halftime.
In the next game, the two teams' offenses went very smoothly, especially the Cavaliers. James' strong play attracted Gasol's double-team and passed the ball to Big Z at the basket, shooting 8 shots and hit 5 goals.
The only thing to be thankful is that James' shooting percentage is not high, 1 of 5 shots, only scored 2 points, but gave 5 assists!
"Beep!" The referee whistle sounded and the first quarter ended.
The Cavaliers temporarily lead the Lakers by 2 points with 30:32!
The Lakers lagged behind mainly because Bynum left the court due to injury and the team's offense was temporarily affected. After two minutes, they quickly returned to normal. This is the foundation of a strong team.
The Cavaliers are leading the way, and the home audience is very happy. Today, they will definitely win the league number one!
James was excited to celebrate with all his teammates as he walked to the bench. The team took the lead and entered the second quarter, and he was very happy.
Today I finally relaxed a little, and I finally got the support of my teammates. If it weren't for the teammates' strength, the team would not be able to get the lead. His feel was average in this game, and next he needed to find his feel back.
"Guide Su, can you say that the Cavaliers won the lead in the first quarter, mainly because of what?" Yang Yi looked at Director Su.
"From the analysis on the court, the Cavaliers make good use of James' strength. Although Li Tian has a strong defense, his body is still relatively thin. James plays hard to attract double teams, and then passes the ball to his teammates and teammates.
It is also powerful enough to hit the ball after receiving the ball, especially Big Z, who scored 12 points in the first quarter.
Let’s look at the Lakers again. Because Bynum was suddenly injured and left the court, it has a significant impact on both offense and defense of the Lakers. I hope that the Lakers can quickly adjust their state in the future!” Director Su analyzed.
"It's true, but injuries have always been part of professional athletes. I just hope that Bynum's injury is not serious, so it will not affect the Lakers' next game!" Yang Yi said.
Yang Yi was a little worried that this season, the Lakers were expected to break the Bulls' 72-win record and complete the title defense, but Bynum was injured and broke the record, which would definitely be greatly affected, and the title defense would also be cast a shadow.
"Li, you will no longer lead the substitute players to play in the second quarter. Kobe will lead the substitute players next." Phil made arrangements. Li Tian needed to rest. The offense and defense with James in the same quarter cost a lot of physical energy.
Kobe led the bench and continued to play.
"Lee, Bynum's injury is not known yet, and he is likely to be out for a while. In the later game, you may be briefly pushed to the center position. I hope you can be mentally prepared for this!" Phil
This is the only way to make arrangements. Bynum's injury sounded the alarm for the team.
The team has indeed been winning streak recently, but it consumes a lot of physical energy for players, which can easily lead to injury to players.
In the next game, he needs to increase the team's lineup rotation so that the starters can get more rest time, but Li Tian's mission feels strengthened again.
"No problem, I will follow the team's arrangement!" Li Tian nodded and agreed. Since the start of the game, he has never reached the center position. With Bynum and Gasol, he only needs to play in the small forward.
"The Cavaliers are temporarily leading. In this game, the Lakers lost the starting center again. Do they still have a chance to win this game?" Yang Yi asked in the studio.
"This is just the first quarter. James consumes a lot. As long as the Lakers fall behind in the first half, the Lakers have hope of turning the tables!" Director Sun did not believe that James, who has been attacking for a strong moment, can persist until the end of the game.
James' physical strength declines is the Lakers' opportunity!
At the beginning of the second quarter, Kobe led a substitute, but it did not change the situation of the team. The score difference did not narrow, but continued to expand.
James was replaced again after only two minutes of rest.
"Phil, I'm going to play!" Although he was very tired, Li Tian still asked to continue to play. This is his proof of battle. Of course, the team's victory is equally important.
No Lakers players on the court can defend James alone, and he is restricted by him. James has created many good mobile phone opportunities for his teammates.
"Brown really doesn't treat James as a human being. He only took less than 4 minutes of rest and was replaced again!" Phil ignored Li Tian's request and said this.
"Phil, the team is still behind now!" Li Tian was a little anxious. If he didn't make a appearance, the team would fall more. If he fell too much, entering the second half, once the Cavaliers became more powerful, it would have a great impact on the team.
Two more minutes passed, Li Tian rested for 5 minutes, and there were 7 minutes left in the second quarter. Li Tiancai replaced Ariza and also replaced Kobe, allowing Vujasic to replace him.
The difference in scores was pulled to 5 points at 35:40.
"Come on!" Kobe said, heading towards the bench.
I usually think Bynum is not that important, but suddenly the lack of Bynum and the team rotation was disrupted, and I realized that the impact of this guy on the team was still quite large.
Li Tian came up to defend James, and the effect was significantly better, and he did not break through and pass the ball as easily as before.
But the teammates' defense is much worse.
James passed the ball continuously to the outside, and Szebiak, who came on the bench, made consecutive shots outside the three-point line, which made Kobe, who was on the bench, very dissatisfied.
"Shit!" Kobe couldn't help but curse.
Then he looked at Phil, "Phil, I'm going to appear!".
Looking at Kobe's firm eyes, Phil could only take advantage of the opportunity to kill the ball to replace Kobe, and at the same time let Ariza replace Odom, who made frequent defensive mistakes.
"Go down and reflect!" Kobe said coldly.
"The Lakers' defense is in a huge crisis. If the defensive intensity cannot be raised, it will become very difficult to request this game!" Director Su couldn't help but sigh.
Szebiak made two consecutive three-pointers, changing the situation on the field. The Lakers' situation took a sharp turn and the score difference was widened to 10 points.
38:48, the Lakers are 10 points behind.
"Kobe, we need to strengthen the defense intensity. After James passed the ball, the defense against the Cavaliers players was too weak, so." Li Tian said when he saw Kobe being replaced.
Li Tian was very dissatisfied with the defense that had just been in the past few minutes. He worked hard to consume James and forced the opponent to pass the ball. However, after the pass, the defense of other players was not in place, especially Odom, which gave the opponent a lot of money.
There are too many opportunities, and the team's defensive strength must be strengthened. Kobe's appearance is the best explanation, and he does not want the team to relax on the defensive end.
"No problem, we must strengthen our defense. Your defensive task is the heaviest. If you can't defend, remember to assist in defense!" Kobe patted Li Tian on the shoulder.
"I can. When necessary, I will ask my teammates to come up and assist in defense!" Li Tian nodded and agreed.
After a brief communication, the team's strategy to strengthen defense has been determined.
Kobe and Li Tian have already understood each other very well after about a year of running-in. Both of them are guys who never give in. In the first quarter, Li Tian's defense was indeed recognized by everyone, without losing positions or making mistakes, James was defeated.
The hit rate has been defending to 20%. Li Tian had many other black pieces before, which changed his view of him.
After strengthening the defense, the Lakers' offense became smoother, and Li Tian also completed several assists. After receiving the ball, Kobe hit 2 three-pointers, narrowing the gap to 5 points.
53:58, 20 seconds left in the second quarter, the Cavaliers attacked.
"There is still a chance to attack in the first half. Whether the Cavaliers players can continue to widen the gap depends on this attack!" Yang Yi said, and James' physical strength still showed no sign of decline.
At the end of the timeout, James received a serve from the sideline of the Big Z. Li Tian quickly stepped forward and began to defend closely, not giving the Cavaliers a chance to widen the gap.
James stopped at two steps outside the three-point line, ready to suppress the offensive rhythm. When there were 8 seconds left in the game, James moved.
Suddenly accelerated, pushed Li Tian, and advanced to the basket, trying to complete the last attack.
Just as James rushed to the basket, Kobe stretched out his hand.
James rushed to the basket, defended himself, and hit the only mid-range shot in the second quarter.
"Beep!" The whistle sounded and the first half ended.
When Li Tian saw Kobe, he covered his right hand and squatted on the ground, feeling very painful.
"What's wrong, why did Kobe squat on the ground?" Yang Yi exclaimed.
"I have a bad premonition that Kobe will not be injured! Bynum is already injured. If Kobe is injured again, it will have a great impact on the team. I just hope that Kobe's injury will not be particularly serious!" Su
The guide said.
"Bryant can't be injured anymore, the Lakers can no longer withstand such trouble!"
"I hope Kobe won't get hurt!" Fans began to pray for Kobe.
The hearts of Lakers fans became nervous in an instant.
"Old scientist, how are you doing now?" Li Tianlai hurriedly stepped forward to ask.
The scene was filled with a large screen, and the scene of Kobe being injured just now was played.
"Is Kobe injured?" The first thought in Brown's mind.
