Seven Hundred and Seventy-Five. Is This Something a Human Would Do?
The Lakers had no choice on this ball, and they were 4 points behind. Bynum rushed back, otherwise he couldn't even interfere with Sun Ce, who counterattacked and received the ball too quickly.
It was the Lakers' turn to attack again. Kobe forced a breakthrough to the basket, and Yi Jianlian, who was defending, was fouled by Kobe. Kobe went to the free throw line and got a chance to breathe. He made two free throws steadily, helping the Lakers avoid falling into a slump.
It was the Grizzlies' turn to attack. Because Sun Ce's previous shots were too exciting and his touch was too hot, his touch returned to the normal "hot" state. Sun Ce made a long two-point shot against the double-team defense of Kobe and Artest and missed. Although Yi Jianlian had excellent awareness and grabbed the offensive rebound and made a tip-in to score two points, the Lakers were still 4 points behind, but the fans at the scene finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Sun Ce's fairy touch finally ended!
He scored 8 goals in a row at the beginning of the second quarter and 7 goals in a row at the beginning of the third quarter!
Although the Lakers fans have a good impression of Sun Ce because of Kobe's dancing, opponents are still opponents after all. Kobe performed so well today, so they certainly hope that Kobe will defeat Sun Ce and the Lakers will win.
"The single-player state has ended, and the host exits the focus mode."
Every time the "single-player" state ends, Sun Ce will regret it. There was another chance to pass the ball just now, but fortunately Yi Jianlian made a tip-in.
In the last three rounds before the official timeout, Sun Ce missed one shot and passed two balls. One ball was dunked by Jordan, and the other ball was missed by Yi Jianlian's mid-range shot.
On the Lakers side, they played one less offense, and Kobe took the last two offenses, but neither of them went in, but Artest made a tip-in for one of the balls.
The fans were very surprised. In the 17 minutes after the start of the second quarter, the two "Kobes" were both surging, but in the sixth minute of the third quarter, the two "Kobes" tacitly entered the iron-shooting mode.
53 to 43, Sun Ce still leads Kobe by 10 points. In terms of goals, Sun Ce scored 23 and Kobe scored 18, so Sun Ce still leads by 5.
A 10-point advantage is not safe at all.
As for the team, before the third quarter was over, the Grizzlies had already scored 83 points, leading the Lakers with 79 points by 4 points.
The success rate of the two teams at the beginning of the second quarter was too high. In fact, it was because Sun Ce and Kobe had a high shooting success rate, and the Lakers had a lot of secondary attacks.
Sun Ce scored 37 points in the past 19 minutes, and Kobe scored 32 points in 15 minutes...
The commentator Zhang Weiping of the court station kept using the word "fighting between gods" to describe the confrontation between the two.
After the official timeout, Sun Ce returned to the bench to sit down, slowed down, and played singles continuously. In 7 minutes, he made 7 of 9 shots and passed two balls. Because he was very excited and had Kobe's physical strength, he was not tired physically, but the psychological pressure was very high.
Compared with the characteristics of Kobe himself, using skills has both advantages and disadvantages. The good thing is that as long as the preconditions are completed, Kobe time will definitely be triggered. However, in the short period after the Kobe time effect ends, the feeling of being able to shoot freely will be adjusted and made up for in an instant.
Kobe is different. Kobe is his own strength and does not need to adjust this matter.
Moreover, the opponent's defense against him has been significantly strengthened. Artest double-teamed in two consecutive rounds... Although it is a good way to use Kobe's style to deal with Kobe, it depends on the situation.
Now, it is time to use team play to solve the game, and it is also to force the opponent to create conditions for him to start a solo battle again.
At the beginning of the third quarter, Sun Ce was able to play "Kobe time". He felt that a large part of the reason was that the Zen Master's defensive arrangement was wrong. Of course, this was due to his passing in the second half of the second quarter and the good effect.
However, the situation of the game is now obviously extremely favorable to the Grizzlies. There are 17 minutes left in the game and they are leading by 4 points. Next, it is the game that the Grizzlies are good at.
…
After the timeout, Conley, Battier, Yi Jianlian, and Gasol played with Sun Ce.
On the Lakers side, the Zen Master replaced the twin towers of Odom and Gasol,
Kobe moved to the small forward position, and Fisher and Shannon Brown played.
As the saying goes, one wrong step will lead to restrictions at every step. The Zen Master has seen many big scenes. Although it is definitely not easy to play if he is constantly restricted, it will be more difficult to catch up with the Grizzlies as the game progresses, but he is still making adjustments.
The Lakers have the ball.
After Fisher advanced to the frontcourt, Kobe did not ask for the ball again. Sun Ce was a little surprised, just as Coach Hollins expected!
Coach Hollins expected the changes in other opponents' playing styles, but Sun Ce was not surprised, but he was able to predict Kobe's changes... He is really good!
The Lakers started a triangle offense with Kobe as the containment point, Odom as the core of the triangle offense, and Gasol as the main low-post singles.
The Grizzlies started a pick-and-roll style of play with Sun Ce as the containment point, Conley as the main point guard, and Gasol as the core of the support.
Kobe and Sun Ce changed their styles of play very tacitly.
The former was to conserve energy. The physical energy consumption of the two was quite different. Kobe played the whole first quarter, while Sun Ce was equivalent to "not playing" in the first quarter. Although Sun Ce played 4 minutes more in the second quarter and Kobe rested for 4 minutes, if you have to count, even if Kobe rested, it can be regarded as Sun Ce "playing less" for at least half a quarter.
Sun Ce considered it from a tactical perspective. He clearly felt that in addition to Kobe's defense, Odom and Shannon Brown were watching him at any time. Of course, if there was no threat of Odom's help defense, Sun Ce would still play alone after receiving the ball.
And the main attacking point is not Kobe and Sun Ce, the main attacking point of the Grizzlies is Conley, and the main attacking point of the Lakers is Gasol.
However, the play of the two teams in the second half of the third quarter was not about offense, but defense!
Gasol played Gasol, but he didn't play so well this time. The younger brother got excited when he saw his older brother, and his actions were rough and he didn't give him any face. The older brother could only miss the days when his younger brother was fat, when he could beat his younger brother at will.
Kobe was involved in defense, and his role on the offensive end was reduced. Odom and Gasol's offense was enough. Gasol was just difficult to play, but his efficiency was still good. With Odom's support, the Lakers scored 11 points in the second half.
Kobe only took two shots in the second half of the third quarter, and made 1 of 2 shots.
After three quarters, Kobe scored 45 points, 4 rebounds and 3 assists.
On the Grizzlies side, Conley's main attack was average, and Gasol's support was also average. Most of the time, the ball returned to Sun Ce, but at least he helped Sun Ce to contain the defense. Yi Jianlian had the possibility of receiving the ball and cutting in, which formed a defensive compression on the opponent. With Gasol's pick-and-roll, Sun Ce could play one-on-one against Kobe or the players who switched defense.
In the second half of the third quarter, Sun Ce's shooting effect was average, 2 of 5 shots, which was not in line with today's touch. The hit rate was more than 70% from the first timeout in the third quarter. After three quarters, Sun Ce's hit rate dropped to 64% of 25 of 39 shots, but in addition to 2 of 5 shots, there were two free throws.
After three quarters, Sun Ce scored 59 points, 17 rebounds and 6 assists! Broke his personal three-quarter scoring record!
Sun Ce scored 53 points before the official timeout in the third quarter, and his state was so hot. The Lakers knew clearly that they could not stop Sun Ce from scoring 60+. While trying their best to make trouble for Sun Ce, they tried their best to make up defense, mainly shrinking. The Grizzlies' lineup did not have many players who could shoot three-pointers, and it was not a good choice to play against the Grizzlies to improve the confrontation, but in the disadvantaged situation, the Zen Master could only do this.
This time, the Zen Master showed the ability of the 11-time champion coach, and the defensive selection was good. Except for Sun Ce who relied on his personal ability to score 6 points in 5 minutes, the other Grizzlies only scored 4 points.
After three quarters, the Grizzlies led the Lakers by 3 points 93 to 90 and entered the intermission.
The scores in these three quarters were terrifying enough. Fans and the media did not dare to predict that the two teams would score 90+ in three quarters, and both teams got it.
But look at Sun Ce's 64% hit rate and 59 points, Kobe's 20 of 35 shots and 57% hit rate and 45 points... This is normal. In the second and third quarters, the two players were just as Zhang Weiping described - a fight between gods.
The other players of the two teams played well overall. The other players of the Grizzlies scored 34 points in three quarters, and the other players of the Lakers scored 45 points in three quarters. The Lakers had an advantage in offensive rebounds. Fortunately, the Grizzlies had Sun Ce's outbreak. Otherwise, with the Lakers' current hot state and Kobe's terrible touch, if the Grizzlies had their usual scoring efficiency, they would have fallen behind by 30 points like the Spurs after three quarters.
The fierce battle between the two teams has reached a fever pitch, and the head coaches of both teams feel that the rest time between quarters is not enough!
After making the final arrangements for the fourth quarter, the two teams' final lineups appeared.
On the Lakers side, the strongest lineup of Fisher, Kobe, Barnes, Odom, and Gasol appeared.
On the Grizzlies side, the strongest lineup of Sun Ce, Conley, Battier, Randolph, and Gasol was also substituted.
After the start of the fourth quarter, Sun Ce still focused on the team. He was waiting for the opportunity, waiting for the opponent's defense against him to relax a little, and the right to attack was handed over to Randolph.
On the Lakers side, Kobe took a half-quarter break and started to attack. His hand continued to be hot. In the first half of the fourth quarter, he made 3 of 6 shots from mid-range and under the basket, and 2 of 4 free throws to get 8 points. Fortunately, Kobe missed two free throws. When Sun Ce and Gasol fouled, they hit Kobe's arm heavily, as if they were going to break Kobe's hand, but Kobe was only affected in the first free throw. The second free throw seemed to recover, and his iron man style remained unchanged.
It was also because of Kobe's two missed free throws that the Lakers, who scored 12 points in 6 minutes and 22 seconds after the first half of the final quarter, were still two points behind the Grizzlies.
In the 6 minutes and 22 seconds of the Grizzlies, Randolph scored 7 points and made 2 of 7 shots. His hit rate was not very good, but he was very powerful under the basket. He grabbed offensive rebounds three times, two of which caused Pau Gasol to foul. He made 3 of 4 free throws.
For the Lakers, it was fortunate that Pau Gasol had a long rest time in the first three quarters, and only committed 1 foul in the first three quarters. Otherwise, Randolph missed two single shots and caused fouls on rebounds, which had a great impact. The Zen Master let Pau Gasol rest more, which worked wonders.
However, in addition to Randolph's 7 points, the Grizzlies only had Sun Ce's mid-range shot and Battier's long two-point shot after receiving Sun Ce's pass, scoring 11 points in half a quarter.
104 to 102, the Grizzlies' lead was reduced to two points.
The change in the style of the game once again shattered the fans' imagination. They originally thought that the offense would continue like the first three quarters, but who knew that the head coaches of both teams asked for stronger confrontation and defense.
The duel between the two "Kobes" disappeared in an instant, and it became Kobe vs. Randolph.
How can it be better than a duel between two "Kobes"? The fans at the scene began to shout "Lord", they wanted to see the opponent's "Kobe" and their own real Kobe duel.
…
Sun Ce's first 60+ in his career was like a natural outcome. He shot 3 times in the first half of the fourth quarter, 1 of 3 shots, and 26 of 42 shots in total, with a hit rate of 61%. In addition to 61 points, there were 19 rebounds, 8 assists, 4 blocks, 2 steals, and only 3 turnovers!
Mainly shooting, assists were passed by height after being double-teamed, so the turnovers were naturally much lower.
In the first half of this quarter, Sun Ce was waiting, waiting for the opponent to shrink the defense against Randolph, but he never waited.
However, it is good to be able to maintain the lead. Randolph has rested for so long, and his condition is getting better and better. He just needs to hold on to the game.
But the Grizzlies are in trouble now. Tony Allen was exhausted defending Kobe in the first three quarters. Kobe played too well today. If there were no confrontations from Tony Allen, Kobe might have played like he did in the fourth quarter the night before.
But now Battier's defense was not effective in half a quarter. With Sun Ce's backup defense, Kobe still scored 8 points in half a quarter, and he has already scored 53 points, only 8 points away from Sun Ce's 61 points.
Paul George tried to defend Kobe in the second quarter, and was almost beaten by No. 24 himself and shouted "Kobe is mighty".
Others defending Kobe, Morrow, Conley, Jason Williams, probably can't even interfere...
Sun Ce thought that he was also in Kobe's possession, and he had the advantage of height, so he should be considered a thin version of the little prince!
Without hesitation, when the coaching staff and players were all having a headache about who to defend Kobe, Sun Ce stood up and said, "I'll defend No. 24."
"Noah?" Coach Hollins was a little surprised to see Sun Ce volunteer.
But thinking about it, this guy might be the most suitable. Coach Hollins nodded, and the teammates seemed to have dawned - no need to defend Kobe!
Teacher Tony and Battier couldn't play, and the others really didn't dare to defend! They were looking for abuse.
Moreover, Sun Ce didn't know that the title of "Kobe's successor" had been put on his head. His teammates didn't expect that Sun Ce, a hidden Kobe fan, was so hidden and had been secretly learning Kobe.
Thinking about it carefully, it was really like this. Sun Ce claimed to be a disciple of Jordan and Nash, but many of his skills overlapped with Kobe's! Tonight's outbreak completely exposed the "essence of Kobe fans".
What does it mean that the deeper the love, the harder the work?
The teammates felt it!
It's more appropriate to let Kobe fans, who know Kobe best, deal with Kobe... In fact, the Grizzlies were really left with no one available because of Kobe's outbreak today.
Missing a Guy! With Guy, there is no such headache for three people to fight against Kobe.
…
After the timeout, Blake replaced Fisher on the Lakers side. Fisher was really old. He missed two open three-pointers in the fourth quarter, which wasted Kobe's pass. At the same time, Fisher could not contain the defense, which made Kobe suffer more double-teaming. Otherwise, with such a good touch, Battier, who was obviously unstoppable on the defensive end in the fourth quarter, would not have only made 3 of 6.
The Zen Master replaced Blake, who made 4 of 6 three-pointers today, with Kobe, Barnes, Odom, and Gasol.
After Kobe came on the court, he saw the opponent's lineup... His eyes lit up!
The Grizzlies sent out a lineup of Sun Ce, Conley, Morrow, Randolph, and Gasol.
Kobe concluded that the opponent would definitely not use Conley and Morrow to defend him. If that happened, the Grizzlies would be looking for death. Then, it would be that hateful bastard who defended him!
Coincidentally, the Zen Master arranged for him to defend Sun Ce.
A new phrase popped up in Kobe's mind - "Real Kobe vs. Fake Kobe!"
Kobe's personal score has reached 53 points, while Sun Ce's has 61 points. Kobe didn't care about the 8-point gap. He wanted to win and lead in personal score.
Given that Sun Ce only made 1 of 3 shots in the first half of the fourth quarter, Kobe felt that he had a chance to surpass Sun Ce.
The game continued, and the Grizzlies had the ball.
Sun Ce passed the ball to Conley, and Conley pushed forward.
Defensive prediction is actually a kind of gambling, and predictions always make mistakes.
Sometimes it's not that the prediction ability is not good enough. Based on Sun Ce's performance in the second half of the third quarter and the first half of the fourth quarter, the Zen Master is willing to bet that Sun Ce's touch has declined.
But... no matter how experienced and predictive the opponent is, he can't stand the wall!
Sun Ce ran to the front court without the ball and observed that the opponent's defense focus was obviously tilted towards Randolph. He finally waited for the opportunity again!
A thought came to his mind...
"Solo 4 level triggered, host enters focus mode, number of shots (0/0), consecutive hits: 0."
When Conley was outside the three-point line and met Barnes' defense, Sun Ce took the initiative to run to the top arc to pick and roll for Conley.
Kobe and Barnes quickly prepared for the switch, mainly to defend Sun Ce's pick and roll.
However, Kobe and Barnes did not expect what happened next, and even Conley, who was about to use the pick and roll, did not expect it...
After Sun Ce rushed up to block the man, he suddenly turned around and stretched out his hand. Conley was pulling the ball to the left and was taken away by Sun Ce!
After Sun Ce turned right and stole the ball from Conley, he did not stop. He turned to the right side of the top arc in one go, and with the help of Conley blocked Kobe. When Barnes did not react, he shot a three-pointer from the right side of the top arc...
The nearly open three-pointer shot was hit!
Sun Ce was determined to shoot this ball, and he shot decisively and scored cleanly.
But... this ball... is enough!
Many fans who were tired of shouting and drinking water spit out their food after seeing this scene. Fans who were eating lunch and watching the final quarter of the game in front of the TV spit out their food!
Everyone was shocked by Sun Ce's behavior! This guy can do anything!
