NBA Dynasty Sniper - Chapter 420

The Blazers attacked, Zhao Dong came to the top of the arc with the ball, the Lakers’ defense contracted, and Kobe and Harper doubled.

At this time, he suddenly made a breakthrough action, Kobe and Harper quickly closed the defense, but he retracted his right foot and jumped outside the three-point line.

Facing the double team, his self-confidence was 100% overwhelming, and his technical movements were perfect. Kobe and Harper were completely rid of him.

“Huh!”

Splashes came and made a three-pointer.

Barkley exclaimed: “Today, the flying dragon was murderous, and it was too simple to shoot. I seemed to see the flying dragon that broke the hundred in a single game that day.”

“Zhao Dong is murderous!”

At the CCTV commentary, Su Qun was excited and authentic.

“Snapped!”

O’Neal once again got the ball at the basket, but when he dunked, it was blocked by Granville and Marion who helped defend the ball.

But David Robinson grabbed the ball, made a small single-handed throw near the basket and hit a goal.

5:4, the Blazers attack.

Immediately Zhao Dong played a fast break from the outside, Kobe and Harper could not stop it, and dunked successfully.

“boom!”

The capped shark worked hard, once again buckled Grant, and bit the score.

Zhao Dong quickly attacked again and was dragged by Kobe. The Lakers quickly returned to defense and turned to a positional battle.

Bang Bang Bang, Zhao Dong came to the top of the arc again and encountered Kobe and Harper’s double-team. He suddenly started and made a breakthrough.

Kobe and Harper noticed this time. The former retreated and the latter defended in place.

But this time, Zhao Dong really made a breakthrough. He struck Harper with one step, and when he encountered Kobe who had retreated a step, he turned around and then struck Kobe and rushed into the paint zone.

The Blazers’ two inside lanes were all opened. At this time, O’Neal and David Robinson returned to the rim at the same time, but they were too late. They had just arrived at the rim, and Zhao Dong had already flew toward the rim. The sides simultaneously take off and cover.

“boom!”

Zhao Dong was a little quicker, his left hand catching the ball smashed from between the covers of the two, and the water splashed in an instant, and the basket shuddered endlessly.

9:6, Zhao Dong once again widened the points difference.

“Beep!”

The referee blew the whistle.

O’Neal and David Robinson raised their hands at the same time to signal a foul.

The referee looked at O’Neal and pointed to David Robinson.

In fact, David Robinson is on the right side, and he can’t get Zhao Dong’s left hand. O’Neal fouled. The referee’s penalty is also a manifestation of home court advantage.

Zhao Dongjia made a free throw, 10:6, and the Blazers led by two points.

The Lakers attacked, and Phil Jackson called a timeout.

In fact, there is no problem with offensive tactics. The Lakers scored all three offenses. The Blazers led by 4 points because of a three-pointer, a free throw, and one more offense. Phil Jackson called a timeout because of defense.

“Ron, when you guard, stick to him first to create double-teaming opportunities for Kobe.”

“Kobe, when the flying dragon breaks through Ron, you have to judge the breakthrough aspect of the flying dragon.”

“Fox, you are the second line of defense. You have to fill Kobe’s loopholes and plug the other side of the flying dragon.”

“If he still rushes in, then immediately double-team to the basket.”

“Shaq, David, speed up your return to defense.”

He actually arranged three double-teams on the perimeter, a double guard at the basket, and a five-fold one at the basket, using all of his defensive power on Zhao Dong.

There is no other way. Today, Zhao Dong swept the Blazers’ first four offenses, and all four offenses were completed.

Except for one fast break, he scored all the other three times, two of which were breakthroughs. He must limit Zhao Dong’s outside breakthrough.

The timeout ended and the Lakers attacked.

The Sharks rested, instead of actively asking for the ball, they pulled to the left low post to attract defense.

Kobe was running without the ball on the right wing, and suddenly reversed to throw off Zhao Dong and cut to the basket.

The Blazers played the mixed defense of the previous game. After Zhao Dong was thrown off, he did not pursue the defense, but immediately moved to the free throw line to fill Marion’s position, and Marion went down to fill the defense.

David Robinson made a pick-and-roll for Kobe and blocked Marion, when Harper’s ball came in.

This is a scalpel pass, a straight pass from a person’s slit.

“Snapped!”

Zhao Dong made up for Marion’s position, stretched his arm and broke the ball.

“Oh, the ball is broken, go back to defense!”

The on-site commentator exclaimed and immediately yelled.

Zhao Dong turned around holding the ball and quickly went down, but was blocked by Harper at the top of the arc. He passed to Eddie Jones and then went down quickly.

The rest of the Lakers were left behind, including Kobe, who cut into the basket, while Eddie Jones and Zhao Dong went head-to-head.

Eddie Jones rushed to the center line with the ball, Harper chased it, and he sent it to Zhao Dong.

Zhao Dong reached the basket with the ball, Harper chased it, and he backhanded and passed the ball to Eddie Jones, who cut into the left wing.

Jones caught the ball and flew up and completed the defensive counterattack with a dunk.

12:6, the Trail Blazers lead by 6 points, the Lakers offense.

A timeout was called for the defense, but the offense failed. Phil Jackson’s heart lifted up and walked around the sidelines.

As long as he plays with Zhao Dong’s team, he has no chance to sit quietly on the bench.

“boom!”

It was O’Neal, who bit the Lakers with a heavy dunk under a double double team, and also caused a foul by Marion.

With a bang, the Sharks missed an additional penalty. David Robinson grabbed a rebound from the crowd, shook Grant and Oscar with a fake stand, and then scored a goal with a small hook close to the basket.

The Lakers scored four points in a row, 12:10, and the Blazers only led by two points.

Next, the Lakers based on the advantage of the two super centers at the basket, and Kobe held Zhao Dong outside, and played a tug-of-war with the Blazers.

After the first quarter, 30:26, the Blazers led by 4 points.

The Lakers have never changed. O’Neal and Robinson played for 12 minutes. Without the depth of the lineup, they can only play the main force.

The Blazers, who have the advantage of the bench lineup, replaced Grant with Fordson, Davis for Oscar, and Steve Smith for Eddie Jones. The overall strength did not decline.

Zhao Dong made 9 of 13 shots in the first quarter, nearly 70% from the field, 1 of 2 three-pointers, 3 of 3 free throws, and 22 points.

After the Lakers stepped up their double-teaming, his efficiency declined somewhat.

But under the effect of the blacksmith badge, his hit rate is actually very high even if he encounters multiple double-teams.

O’Neal made 7 of 10 shots in the first quarter, made 2 of 4 free throws, and scored 16 points. The efficiency is about the same as Zhao Dong.

Robinson also made 3 of 5 shots, plus 1 free throw and scored 7 points very efficiently.

It was the super-high efficiency of the two super centers that helped the Lakers bite the score. Otherwise, with Zhao Dong’s efficiency, how could he only lead by 4 points?

In the second quarter, the elderly David Robinson couldn’t hold on, and sat off the court with Cobra Grant taking the place.

The Lakers very much hope to win this home court, so O’Neal desperately, playing at the beginning of the second quarter.

The same goes for the other three starters, without a break.

For the Blazers, Zhao Dong continued to play, Mike Miller replaced Marion, and the other three were the lineup at the end of the first quarter.

In this quarter, only O’Neal is in it. The Lakers are weakened. Zhao Dong is still the main attacker and has to make a big difference on the bench lineup.

Fordson killed O’Neal, the latter played a whole quarter, his physical fitness declined, and his efficiency was significantly lower than the first quarter.

Under this situation, the Lakers slowly dropped out of the bench in the second quarter, and the Blazers widened the point difference.

Zhao Dong made more shots in the second quarter, and because the Lakers only had O’Neal inside, they made a lot of breakthroughs and wanted to make O’Neal kill.

However, O’Neal was not fooled and did not dare to do his best on the defensive end. As long as Zhao Dong can break in, he will be more accurate than the first quarter.

David Robinson took a four-minute break and then replaced O’Neal.

But in the Blazers’ impressive offense, O’Neal only sat on the court for two minutes before being beaten up, and the Lakers were forced to restore the main lineup.

Zhao Dong made 11 of 15 shots in the second quarter, with a hit rate of 73.3%. With two free throws, he scored 24 points in a single quarter and 46 points in the half.

The Blazers scored 32 points on the bench in the second quarter, surpassing the main lineup in the first quarter.

At 62:52, the Lakers scored 26 points in the second quarter. They were 10 points behind at halftime and 12 points in the final. If O’Neal hadn’t played again, they would be behind even more.

Barkley analyzed during the half-time break: “If this goes on, the Lakers are likely to crash in the final quarter. O’Neal’s current tonnage is close to 150 kilograms, and he can’t stay at the basket for that long.”

Smith laughed: “It’s still because David Robinson helps him share the defensive pressure, otherwise his offense is at most 40% at the basket, and it is impossible to have such a strong body to keep him playing at the basket.”

With the efforts of O’Neill and David Robinson, the third quarter entered a tug-of-war.

Zhao Dong played two quarters, and also reduced his breakthrough and offense in the third quarter. He only scored 15 points and scored 61 points in the third quarter.

After three quarters, 88:76, 12 points difference.

“Ohhhhh…”

Sitting back on the bench, O’Neill and David Robinson didn’t even want to drink water. The sweat dripped down, mouths were wide open and panting, and their chests rose and fell violently.

On the Blazers bench, the situation is much better. Several powerful insiders take turns to play and the two super centers are dead. Although it is very difficult, it is after all taking turns to play. One player plays for a few minutes. Everyone still has plenty of energy.

“The last quarter is our chance. O’Neal and David Robinson have fallen in form. They are not physically strong enough. Everyone works hard and wins this game, and we have a big advantage.”

Larry Bird clapped his hands to boost morale.

At the CCTV commentary, Su Qun smiled excitedly: “Now the situation is biased towards the Trail Blazers. As long as the main lineup can withstand it, the bench will be able to beat the Lakers.”

Zhang Fangyi laughed and said: “In fact, regardless of whether the Blazers are outside or inside, except for Zhao Dong and Eddie Jones, who are obviously stronger than the others, the others do not care about the main substitutes. They are the main players of the original Blazers and the Knicks. Players.”

“Yes, Steve Smith, Grant, Davis, these are the main players of the Blazers last season. Marion and Fortson are also the main players of the Knicks.” Su Qun laughed.

“Speaking of the substitute, only O’Neal, he was the real substitute last season, and he was the substitute in the bench, this season has become the absolute main force, haha!” Zhang Yangyi laughed.

Su Qun smiled and said: “In addition, the dragon scored 61 points in three quarters, and the possibility of breaking the hundred is almost non-existent, but it is very likely that he will break Jordan’s record of the first single game in the history of the playoffs.”

Zhang Yangyi nodded and said: “69 points. This is the first time that Jordan and Zhao Dong played in the Eastern Conference Finals. It has been four seasons. It’s time to break it.”

At the end of the quarter, the game entered the pace of the Trail Blazers.

With the deep lineup depth, the Blazers can still maintain a good state, while the Lakers continue to be the main force, and the state is obviously in decline. As the game progresses, the point difference is steadily beginning to widen.

In the sixth minute of the last quarter, the Lakers had fallen behind by 17 points, and the trend was over.

At this time, O’Neal can’t hit the basket anymore, and he has no physical ability. He can only shoot outside, and his efficiency is greatly reduced.

At this time, the Blazers’ players on the field can still maintain considerable physical fitness and state, and Zhao Dong has no physical problems and still maintains a very high efficiency.

Phil Jackson and Jerry West stood on the sidelines, their hearts cold.

Old Buss and Paul Allen sat in the VIP room and sighed: “Paul, how about I use the OK combination to exchange for the flying dragon?”

“Impossible.” Paul Allen shook his head immediately.

In the sixth and a half minutes of the last quarter, with Zhao Dong’s shot, the cheers of away fans rang out because Zhao Dong had already scored 71 points, breaking the record for the highest scoring in a single game in the playoffs.

In the final, 115:95, the Lakers lost at home and lost a full 20 points.

Zhao Dong played 48 minutes and scored 80 points. In the second half, his efficiency declined, but the overall shooting rate was still as high as 67%, a veritable **** of efficiency.

After the game, Barkley concluded: “The Blazers won by two points, one, the Dragon, two, the depth of the lineup. The Lakers lost at two points, one, the Dragon, two, the depth of the lineup.”

“You nonsense.” Smith immediately started to complain.

Barkley grinned and said: “Combining the two points, I think the Lakers lose in physical fitness.”

“Physical fitness?”

“Yes, if O’Neal’s physical fitness is the same as the Wyvern, then the Lakers will not lose.” Barkley laughed.

“That’s impossible, Feilong is an iron man. Even if O’Neill loses weight, his stamina can’t keep up with Feilong.” Smith shook his head.

After winning the G3 battle, Zhao Dong accepted the live interview happily.

“Flying Dragon, 80 points. This is the third highest score in a single game in the history of the league, and the first highest score in a single game in the playoffs. Today, it can be said that you defeated the Lakers alone. What do you want to say most about this? “The Portland Sports News reporter asked excitedly.

“Of course I didn’t beat the Lakers alone, I’m not that good.”

Zhao Dong first made a humble sentence, and then said: “Actually, I have some regrets today. My condition is very good, very good. I originally wanted to break the hundred again…”

“Oh!”

Several reporters couldn’t help exclaiming.

Zhao Dong continued: “But in the second half, the Lakers apparently couldn’t keep up with the rhythm, so I don’t want to score points on them.”

“Puff!”

When the people around heard Zhao Dongzhuang 13, they all laughed.

Several passing Lakers players heard Zhao Dong’s words, and almost vomited blood.

“Isn’t he brushing out that 101?” Bryant said in breath.

“Maybe another shameless guy did it.” O’Neill said in the same breath.

“Obviously, the state dropped during the second half. If he had the super-sweet state of 38 points in the final quarter that day, he would definitely continue to play.” Ron Harper said in an uncomfortable manner.

“Yes.” The others joined in one after another.

Zhao Dong watched the Lakers players go away, and then told reporters: “It seems that I have not convinced these guys. I still need to work harder to convince these hard-mouthed guys.”

The next day, on the 26th, the media overwhelmingly believed that the Blazers would win the Western Conference Finals, and the Lakers were likely to be eliminated by a score of one to four.

That night, the Nets lost and the Bulls pulled back a game.

On the 27th, the Western Conference finals G4 battle started.

This is a game that the Lakers can’t afford to lose. Losing is one to three behind. The Blazers will get the match point and there is almost no possibility of getting it back.

Therefore, the Lakers are desperate, and the five main players have almost no time to rest.

In the first three quarters, under the full strength of the Lakers’ five main players, the two teams played inextricably.

Zhao Dong scored 53 points in the first three quarters, shooting 61%, slightly lower than the G3 game, but still unable to lead the team.

But in the fourth quarter, the Lakers’ stamina collapsed again. O’Neal and David Robinson’s stamina was exhausted. They just barely persevered on the court, and they are no longer in good shape.

Zhao Dong took advantage of the momentum and led the team to a wave of offensive in the final quarter, winning the G4 game in one fell swoop, leading by a big score of three to one, and the Lakers fell into a dead end.

After the game, Barkley sighed: “Although David Robinson is old, he is still the strength of an All-Star center. With the OK combination, if a strong lineup, it will be like this, you can imagine how strong the Blazers are. Up.”

Smith said: “Is the Blazers poor? Marion is better than Fox by one or two grades. Eddie Jones is mainly against Ron Harper, and he is also stronger than the old Harper by one or two grades. Wyvern is the main player. Against Kobe, everyone knows how big the gap is between the two. For the entire perimeter, from position one to three, the Blazers are better than the Lakers.

Also, the Blazers who are already stronger on the perimeter, and two strong substitutes, Mike Miller and Steve Smith both have the strength to play the main force in the Lakers ~ www.mtlnovel.com ~ How do you let the Lakers play?

The Blazers are really weaker than the Lakers in the two positions inside. But in these two positions, the Blazers also have enough strong substitutes to equalize some of the disadvantages.

Taken together, I think the Blazers lineup is not weaker than the Lakers at all. The reason why we think the Lakers lineup is stronger than the Blazers is because our vision is blinded by the strength of the super center combination. “

Barkley looked weird and authentic: “According to you, that is to say, the Blazers win by the lineup, not the dragon?”

Smith suffocated, pushed Barkley, and said with a smile: “You guy, do you want Flying Dragon to trouble me? I didn’t mean that.”

Barkley laughed and said, “Okay, I was joking.”

Having said this, he suddenly looked completely and asked in a deep voice: “Kenny, if the Blazers win this season, do you think the Flying Dragon is a single-core win?”

Kenneth laughed bitterly, and thought for a while: “What is the ratio of his points to the team’s points, isn’t it a single core?”
