The referee gave Duncan a thugs foul, and then Pharaoh made a free throw, but the Blazers called a timeout, trying to interrupt the Lakers’ momentum, and by the way, let Duncan take a breath, for fear of him getting injured.

The team's two major insiders were dunked and dunked by the old K in a row. They were even dunked and dunked in a row. The morale of the pioneers was also very low. After returning to the bench, everyone was very dull, just wiped sweat and drank water. , This time the suspension is also to restore the morale of one's own side.

   Behind the Blazers bench, Paul Allen took a few breaths and relaxed.

His health is not good. Radiation therapy has caused great damage to his body. In fact, he should not come to watch such intense professional sports games. It is more suitable to sit in front of the TV and enjoy it quietly, but there is no way, he just likes this .

   In front of him were Duncan and Da Meng. When he saw Duncan gasping for breath after sitting down, the muscles on his neck and shoulders were tensing and even jumping, he knew that this super top pick was in a very tense state.

He didn't find it strange, nor was he disappointed by Duncan, because no matter who it was, anyone in this league, including Jordan, was not qualified to take it lightly in the face of the terrifying old K. Nervousness is the most normal emotion, not to mention the old K played too hard tonight.

   He reached out and patted Duncan's shoulder, stretched his head and said, "Tim, take it easy."

  Duncan hurriedly turned around and said, "I see, Mr. Allen."

  Paul Allen nodded, leaned back in his chair, and stopped talking.

   At this time, the head coach Dunleavy came over and said to Duncan: "Tim, you have to be careful, old K made it clear that he is targeting you, just like he targeted Sabonis when the Lakers played the Jazz.

You should try your best to avoid injury, don't confront him head-on, he has advantages in tonnage, strength and height, and his explosiveness is even stronger than yours. His current impact is not even lower than that of O'Neal. You must avoid the frontal sharpness. Defend from the side like a big dream. "

   "I understand." Duncan nodded.

After the    timeout, the game resumed, the game only lasted for three minutes, and neither side made any substitutions.

"brush!"

  Pharaoh made a penalty hit.

  Suqun said excitedly: "I made a free throw. Old K should feel good today. Now I am 1 for 1 free throw, 3 for 3 shots, and I have 7 points and 1 assist."

  4:11, Blazers attacked.

   Momo pulled the ball to the left flank, took advantage of Williams' pick-and-roll breakthrough, attracted Pharaoh's supplementary defense when he reached the paint area, and then distributed the ball to Duncan, who made a further layup and hit a ball.

"This is the second time Momonga has assisted Duncan, so be careful with his breakaway tactics. His speed is a threat, and now he runs very fast even with injuries. Kobe needs to catch up a little tighter." Zhang Lili immediately reminded.

   "Duncan is still very stable despite the continuous blows from the Iron Army!" Su Qun also praised.

   "Kobe, keep up."

   On the sidelines, Del Harris was a little anxious, and the Blazers had poor perimeter defense. Now it seems that he is not much better here. Mark Price and Kobe are both defensive loopholes!

"understood."

   Kobe's face is a little dark, this is the second time he has been thrown off by the little mouse, and the worst thing is that both times caused points to be lost.

  The first thing he trained in the Suns was defense. If he continued to play like this, maybe at some point old K would roar at him like a lion.

  6:11, Lakers attack.

  Pharaoh didn't have a strong position, and took over from the outside. Mark Price organized the attack, made tactical gestures, and urged his teammates to move.

   This time, it was given to Richmond, who singled out Williams, using small to fight big, or using breakthrough to eat opponents, and then rush in, the same sudden tactic.

   Duncan had no choice but to take a step up to make up for the defense. At this time, Pharaoh immediately moved to the basket and Richmond threw a pass.

  Dameng quickly returned to defend the basket. When Pharaoh received the ball, he blocked him. Then Duncan returned to the defense and formed a front and rear double-team with Da Meng on the left side of the basket.

But Pharaoh ignored their front and rear double teams. As soon as he caught the ball and landed, before the double team had completely squeezed all the space, he suddenly started the withdrawal method and jumped upwards to get rid of the double team. .

   "Crap!" Su Qun exclaimed.

   "Dameng is so fast in assisting defense." Zhang Lili was amazed at the same time.

"what?"

   But the next moment, their eyes widened when they saw Pharaoh's jumping step.

"Oops!"

   Seeing that the old K who was trapped in the double-team suddenly jumped out of the encirclement, Da Meng knew that it was bad, and it was inevitable that he would be detained.

   In the next moment, Pharaoh stood up straight forward, his left elbow was stuck outwards, withstood Duncan, who was blocking from the side, and he held the ball in his right hand and smashed the basket hard.

  Dameng jumped sideways, blocked with one hand with his left hand, and crossed Pharaoh's right arm, failing to block.

"boom!"

   The next moment, the basket above his head exploded, and he was dunked by old K.

"ah!"

  The Great Western Forum Arena once again responded with a bang, with thunderous cheers, and the on-site commentator's shouts were heard for a long time.

   "Da Meng, you are old, you should retire." Old Wang laughed and spat out trash talk.

   "Don't think about it, I want to win another championship and then retire." Da Meng said unhappily.

   "Unrealistic idea." Pharaoh left a sentence and turned his head to defend.

   "This guy!" Da Meng gritted his teeth angrily.

  6:13, Blazers attacked.

   This time, Momonga didn't break through with the ball. He was already injured and was traded by the Raptors. He had a few bumps just now, and now he was a little tired, so he handed the ball to Ryder.

   Ryder broke through with the ball on the right wing, and Mark Price, who was generally defensive, failed to prevent the former's breakthrough, which was as embarrassing as Kobe.

The perimeter was continuously protruded into a sieve. Del Harris on the sideline just wanted to cover his face. In the tactical meeting before the game, he also said that his perimeter defense was stronger. Now it seems that it is a honeycomb with holes all over it. That is, the defense of the rock is also a little more reliable.

  Forterson came up to make up the defense, and Da Meng immediately moved to the basket. Before Ryder broke into the paint area, he immediately gave Da Meng the ball.

   "Squeak!"

  Pharaoh moved quickly from the left side of the basket to the right side, blocking the front of Da Meng. The latter passed the ball with a hit and passed the ball from the former's feet.

   "What's so special!"

   While cursing, Pharaoh quickly flashed towards the bottom line.

"boom!"

  Duncan was about to dunk the old king, but he did not expect the old king to dodge, only an empty basket was separated.

   "Old K, the first person in active duty, you are too shameless, turn around and seal Tim, what are you running for?" Da Meng said angrily.

   Old Wang glared at Da Meng and scolded: "Do you think I'm the same as you, suffering from being detained and abused?"

  Da Meng was too lazy to pay attention to the shameless old K, and said to Duncan: "Tim, the two of us join forces, and sooner or later we will detain him."

  Duncan nodded and confidently started back on defense.

  8:13, the Lakers attacked and called a timeout.

   "Defense, perimeter defense, haven't you learned defense?" Harris asked angrily after the players came down

   As a coach who attaches great importance to defense, he was very annoyed, and he built a season of defense, but he actually pulled his hips like this.

Pharaoh stretched out his head, glanced at Kobe in the past two positions, and said, "Kobe, your defense in the first half is rubbish. From now on, you can only defend and not attack, defend your opponent first and then talk about attacking, even if If you really can’t prevent it, you have to show your attitude, otherwise you will just sit below.”

   "OK."

   Kobe's face twitched, and he could only recognize the bad luck and nodded.

  As an apprentice of Old K, he has a lot of favorable treatment in the Suns and now in the Lakers. He even became the main force in the finals in his rookie season, and his first championship ring is also rich in gold.

   However, as Old K's apprentice, Old K has stricter requirements on him, and often cuts him off to warn others.

   In the words of old K, he is the chicken that was killed.

   "Hmph, old K, you can't wait for you in the future. Then I'll come to kill the chickens and scare the monkeys with your big head." He secretly said in his heart.

  Under the old K's warning, even all-star players like Mark Price, Mitchmond and Chris Mullin became nervous.

  Especially Mark Price, the defense is average, if he is removed from the main position, it will be troublesome. Behind him, Chris Mullin can replace him, and a second-year Fisher has always been eager to see his position.

   Harris nodded appreciatively to Pharaoh. The team is lucky to have such a leader.

  The Lakers emphasize perimeter defense, and the same goes for the Blazers.

   In the ABC live broadcast booth, Gomez said with a smile: "Fighting and fighting, both sides have the same problem, that they can't defend their opponents from the outside."

  Elanton nodded and smiled: "The same is true for tactics, sudden points. Judging from this tactical choice, the coaching staff of both sides are very aware of the opponent's weaknesses, and they are very targeted."

Gomez said: "But in comparison, the Lakers' perimeter defense is slightly stronger. At least the Rock's defense is okay, very tough. Kobe's defense is okay, his experience is poor, and there are some problems with today's defense. Only Mark Price is a real colander, he's old and he's just average defensively."

   At this time, the time-out time has come, the game restarts, and the Lakers attack.

  Richmond attacked on the left wing with the ball. He also played two rush points and got an assist. This time he did not rush again.

   He is also getting old, and his ability to break through is weakened. After a few bursts, he needs to take a break.

"boom!"

   Missing a jumper against Williams, Da Meng grabbed a backcourt rebound, and the Blazers attacked.

  The Blazers still attacked with the ball, stared at Mark Price's defensive loophole, broke through again, and then scored the ball to Da Meng.

  Dameng took the ball into the paint area, forcing Wang to make up for the defense. He and Duncan cooperated again and hoisted the ball over Wang's head.

   "Squeak!"

  Pharaoh suddenly took a step back, from Duncan, who was facing away from the left side of the basket, to facing the basket, and then quickly took off to block the shot from the upper side.

"Snapped!"

  Duncan took off with one foot, and between the dunks with one hand, a ball hit Pharaoh's palm, and the ball jumped into the air immediately.

"yeah!"

   Countless Lakers fans cheered instantly.

  Under the basket, Pharaoh, Duncan and Da Meng jumped to grab the ball at the same time. Under the front and back, he tapped the basketball and pointed it to the front of the basket, where Fortson was there.

"here."

  Fortson just got the ball when he heard Kobe's voice outside. Looking at it, Kobe had turned around and hurriedly threw it with both hands.

"Oops!"

   Zhang Lili took a look at the ball. It was too fast, too much power was used, and at the same time, it was not accurate enough. Kobe couldn't catch it.

   "Whoosh!"

   Sure enough, the ball flew two meters in front of Kobe and went straight out of the court.

  Fortson was dumbfounded and looked back at Pharaoh, who glared at him and scolded, "Danny, you don't have one assist per game, how can you have the guts to pass the ball?"

   He scratched his head, and under the murmur, he didn't dare to tell the difference.

  Tylon Hill on the bench below is eager to try, old K, are you going to get the rookie down soon?

   Zhang Lili said: "Fordson's passing ability is not good, he has no vision, and he has no ability to launch fast breaks. It is only reasonable for you to give the ball to the Tiejun first. If you mess around like this, you waste the ball."

   "That's right, Old K managed to guard against it." Su Qun also said.

   In the 7th minute of the first quarter, the Lakers were still ahead by 6 points and made substitutions first.

  Fortson made a foul and was replaced by Hill. Mark Price was in average state and was replaced by Fisher. At the same time, Kobe was also replaced by Chris Mullin.

   Five starters, only Pharaoh and Richmond are left.

   The lineup on the Blazers side was not thick enough, and the big dream went on. The substitute insider Brian Grant came up, and the other main players had to top it and make substitutions.

Grant is the best backup for the Blazers. He has good rebounding ability and decent scoring. He is a high-quality backup. Teams with poor lineups can play as the main force. If it weren't for the big dream and Duncan, he would definitely be the main power forward of the Blazers. .

   He was seriously injured last season and only played 20 games. Before the injury, he was the main power forward of the Kings. After the injury, the King did not choose to renew his contract and joined the Blazers as a free agent.

   Then he made more than three-pointers. Pharaoh attacked the basket with all his strength. He made 2 of 2 shots, plus 1 of 2 free throws. When he went on the big dream, he blasted the Blazers inside.

   Looking back, he stared at Duncan again. Although Brian Grant is good, Hill still has a little defense and does not contribute much to the Blazers.

   After the first quarter, at 23:32, the Lakers led by 9 points.

In the 12 minutes of the quarter, Pharaoh made 3 of 3 shots from the front, and saw that he was playing too fiercely. Da Meng and Duncan also began to defend desperately, which had a very good restriction on him, preventing him from entering the basket and letting him outside. He made 3 of 6 shots. After the big dream went down, he attacked the basket again. He made 2 of 2 shots, 8 of 11 shots in total, plus 4 of 5 free throws. He scored 20 points, 3 rebounds, 2 assists, 2 blocks and 1 turnover in a single quarter.

  Duncan played for 12 minutes. With the help of the sudden point tactics, when Da Meng was on the court, he performed well. He made 3 of 5 shots, the shooting rate reached 60%, and he scored 6 points. He was not blocked by Pharaoh.

   But after the big dream went down, it was difficult to support alone, and the offense couldn't get in. He made 1 of 3 shots and was blocked by Pharaoh.

   But a total of 4 of 8 shots, with a 50% hit rate, is actually not that low, but he didn't hit a free throw in the entire quarter.

  Dameng played for seven and a half minutes and was the main attack point of the Blazers. He also blew up Fordson. He made 3 of 5 shots, 1 of 2 free throws, and scored 7 points, 3 rebounds, 3 assists and 1 block, showing all-round performance.
