Chapter 144 I told you to stay away from the women of the Kardashian family a long time ago!
He used Kobe's most familiar style of play to score goals, and Kobe just shook his head and smiled wryly.
The Lakers' possession of the ball is still firmly in Lin Tian's hands.
He continued to single Carroll, this time it became a sudden stop jumper after a strong attack, and he still hit.
This ball can be regarded as a tribute to DeRozan for Kobe.
Next, the Raptors frequently shot three-pointers, reducing the impact on the inside.
Whether it is Lowry or Carroll, the three-point shooting percentage is not low.
Even the veteran Scola, in the twilight years of his career, has developed the ability to shoot three-pointers with one hand!
As a power forward with a height of 2.06 meters, Scola made 40% of his three-pointers this season!Averaged two three-pointers per game.
This level is comparable to that of Channing Frye!
You know, when he and Dayao were teammates, he might not even make a single three-pointer after a season.
Lin Tian just sighed in his heart, the times have changed, these days, it is really the world of three-pointers.
In this game, Lin Tian also increased the proportion of his three-pointers, but today his three-pointer feeling is not good.
With 2 minutes left in the first quarter, Lin Tian was replaced by Scott.
He scored 16 points and only made 4 of 1 three-pointers.
The score between the two sides was 24:30, and the Lakers fell behind by 5 points.
The strength of the Raptors is much stronger than their opponent Timberwolves in the last game, there is no doubt about this.
Lin Tian had a premonition that it would be impossible to clock in early to leave work today. If they clocked in early, they might be too far behind...
The Raptors' bench also has depth.
Terrence Ross, Patterson, Valanciunas and others are all well-known players.
Even Norman Powell, who is still unknown now, will be able to make a name for himself in the future.
In the short 2 minutes when Lin Tian and Kobe were off the court, several of the Lakers' substitutes played a disastrous performance.
Russell and Clarkson's offense was off the mark, their defense was abysmal, and Nance Jr. played poorly today.
After the first quarter, the Lakers were already 15 points behind!
In other words, in the remaining 2 minutes of the first quarter, they were able to open up the opponent by 10 points.
Kobe, who had a relatively good temper this season, couldn't help scolding Nance Jr. and Russell during the intermission: "Are you bewitched by the Raptors? I dare say that an old lady in her 70s can defend a hundred times better than you!"
Before Lin Tian came, Kobe had already broken the jar and regarded this season as his own exhibition tour.
But now the plan has changed, they have hoped to return to the playoffs after a few years, Kobe is like a drowning person grasping the straw.
Whoever's performance makes him dissatisfied, he will never show mercy.
As a player of the Los Angeles Lakers, he lives under the spotlight all year round and has more exposure than players from other teams.
This also allowed Russell and Nance Jr., two rookies, to develop a unique big heart.
They had grasped Kobe's temper, and when Kobe criticized them, they could only keep silent.
Kobe noticed that Clarkson on the side was a little absent-minded, so he began to educate him again: "I told you to stay away from the women of the Kardashian family!"
Naturally, this scene was also recorded on the live broadcast, and it was seen by all the fans watching the game all over the world.
Penguin Sports Live Room:
"Fuck! I haven't seen Kobe so angry in years! Or in public!"
"Hey! Kobe is really worried about the rookies in the team. The performances of Nance Jr. and Russell in the first quarter are indeed unsatisfactory."
"It's not just Russell and Nance Jr., Clarkson also lost his soul today! Since being with Jenna, Clarkson has been getting worse day by day."
"After Lin Tiantian played, Yang Shaoxia was the only one who scored a three-pointer. Alas! It's hard to describe!"
"When the Lakers play against a weak team, they can cover up their weaknesses with a strong offense. When they play against a strong team, their defensive problems will be exposed! It's hard!"
"Actually, it's not all their fault. After all, it's a back-to-back game. It's fine to travel long distances, and Toronto is so cold."
……
Compared to Kobe, Scott's voice is much softer. He is not a very strict coach himself, he just asks everyone to do their own thing.
At the beginning of the second quarter, Lin Tian and Channing Frye returned to the field ahead of schedule.
The two played the first half of the second quarter with Nick Young, Clarkson and Nance Jr.
Nick Young changed his usual joking style and began to focus on defense.
Nick Young, who is serious about defending, has a relatively strong single-defense ability.
Clarkson's defense is really eye-catching, but there is no way, the Lakers don't rely on him to defend.
Before DeRozan and Lowry returned to the court, Lin Tian began to chase points.
His offensive kaleidoscope strength was fully demonstrated in the first few minutes of the second quarter, and he quickly recovered the point difference back to single digits.
Kobe and Howard, who could see the bench, couldn't help standing up and applauding him.
Coach Casey of the Raptors noticed something was wrong, immediately called a timeout, and replaced Lowry and DeRozan.
Kobe and Howard on the Lakers side also returned to the court.
The competition between the two sides has also become more intense.
The Raptors' current center on the field is Valanciunas.
Although Biyombo is sometimes easy to use, he is more often a very irritable and irrational player who often fouls. In comparison, Valanciunas is better.
The most important thing is that Valanciunas also has a soft touch, and the three-point ability that most centers do not have, Valanciunas also has.
Coach Casey's tactic is to let Valanciunas lead Howard out of the penalty area.
Howard, who walked out of the restricted area, was greatly reduced in threat.
Every time Howard is led out of the paint, either let a small man like Lowry single out Howard and use his speed to get rid of Howard's defense.
Either shoot a three-pointer directly!For them, there is always a way to deal with the Lakers.
The Raptors' three-pointers hit 37% this season!Ranked fourth in the league!
Although Lin Tian hit the inside again and again and assisted his teammates again and again, the Lakers still fell behind by 15 points after the second quarter.
During the intermission, after the Lakers players returned to the locker room, the atmosphere was a bit dull.
Bryant was too concerned about asking the rehabilitation therapist to put ice packs on his legs, not in the mood to speak.
Lin Tian could only stand up: "Guys! We gave the opponent too many open three-pointers in the first half. This is not a good thing."
Howard also complained: "These guys only dare to shoot three-pointers, and they have no guts to fight against me inside!"
Throughout the first half, Howard was regarded as the most uncomfortable player among the Lakers' starters, except for Russell.
Howard is not a space-based center, and the Raptors don't play with him inside, and he can't help it.
The intermission ended and the third quarter started. The starting lineups of the two teams remained unchanged from the first quarter.
At the beginning of this quarter, the small steel cannon Lowry seized Russell again to fight.
In addition to Lowry, DeRozan often plays pick-and-rolls with Lowry, letting Russell guard him.
They kind of caught the weakest link of the Lakers and chased after it.
Although Russell had been taught by Kobe in the first half, he was really powerless in the face of the "garbage brothers".
So that just 2 minutes into the third quarter, Russell was replaced by Scott, and Nick Young replaced him.
As soon as Nick Young came up, the Lakers' backcourt defense was slightly better.
This also made Lin Tian dumbfounded. Nick Young, who is good at offense, had to play early because of the team's defensive problems.
The Lakers really need a defensive first or second position.
In this quarter, although Lin Tian was still physically strong, he still frequently passed the ball to Kobe and Howard.
Opponents want to play outside, they can insist on playing inside.
But today Lowry and DeRozan feel great!
Especially DeRozan, who usually doesn't like shooting three-pointers, even scored three three-pointers today!
When the killer DeRozan's three-pointers are outrageously accurate, it is difficult for any team to have a chance of winning against the Raptors.
And Scola is not soft at all today. He averaged less than 10 points per game this season, and today he scored 12 points by shooting three-pointers!
As usual, with more than two minutes left in the third quarter, Lin Tian took a break.
He has scored 38 points today!But the team is still 18 points behind!
In the final bench time of the third quarter, the point difference may be even wider.
In order to avoid letting the Raptors completely widen the point difference, Scott deliberately kept Howard on the court for the time being.
Lin Tian watched the situation on the field while drinking water, and he almost drank the bottle of water unconsciously.
Russell, Nance Jr. and Clarkson continued to lose.
After Russell missed another three-pointer, Bryant slapped the seat next to him angrily: "This guy has a grudge against the basket today?"
Russell currently made 8 of 1 shots and only scored a poor 2 points. It is no wonder that Kobe was furious.
Clarkson was no better than Russell, scoring 6 points on 1 of 3 shots.
Even if they struggled extremely on the offensive end, the key is that they are even more difficult to say on the defensive end.
Howard, who is on the inside, seems to be alone because he often has to wipe their defense.
Lin Tian is not surprised by this, in fact, this is the truest level of the Lakers' bench.
When they felt smooth in the first few games, there seemed to be no disadvantages.
Once the hand feels uncomfortable, various problems will be exposed.
The real strong team is the team that can win the game through defense when the offense is not going well, such as the Warriors.
Fans at the Air Canada Arena, the cheers are getting louder and louder.
Although there are many Kobe fans among them, no one wants their home team to lose.
The score continued to widen, and when the third quarter ended, the difference between the two teams was already 25 points!
At this time the score of the two sides was 75:100.
During the break during the festival, all the Lakers players sat on the bench, all of them looking ashen.
Howard and Nick Young, who were careless before, also observed their words at this time, and did not beep.
Howard is very clear that today's game will most likely become the first time he has to accept defeat since joining the Lakers.
Scott touched his nose, and continued to draw tactics with the tactics board in embarrassment.
in the studio.
Barkley said bluntly: "The performance of the Big Three of the Lakers today is extremely stable, mainly because the substitutes have cheated them."
"This game may also let the Lakers management know that their bench depth is not enough, and they need to be strong!"
Smith also looked at the camera: "Yes, the Lakers' backcourt defense is too weak! Facing Lowry and DeRozan, they are obviously not ready yet."
"What I'm more curious about now is whether Scott will still play Lin at the beginning of the fourth quarter."
"Probably not. Lin played enough time in the first three quarters today. It can be seen that he is very tired. He almost drank a bottle of water in one gulp."
"Haha! Charles, have you discovered all this detail? You really belonged to me!"
"In any case, the Lakers played this game back to back, and they are still second in the Eastern Conference. It's okay to lose."
"What if they come back?" Smith suddenly looked at Barkley.
"Hey! Dude!" Barkley shook his head, "A comeback? What are you thinking? How is this a comeback? 25 points behind! Judging from the state of the Lakers today, they can score 25 points in the fourth quarter! And do you think the Raptors will score nothing?"
……
Penguin Sports Live.
"Hey! I didn't expect to fall behind so much after the third quarter. After this game, the Lakers really should make some adjustments!"
"Don't brag or criticize, the performance of Trash Brothers is really good today! They played at their true level, and I am convinced that I lost."
"Damn it! The management of the Lakers, can you hurry up and get rid of the result of the defensive black hole trade in the team? I am overwhelmed!"
"I guessed that the Lakers would lose today, but I didn't guess that the game was spent in the third quarter. The Lakers are one step away from the playoffs."
"No, no, no? No one really thinks the Lakers can make the playoffs this season, right?"
……
Air Canada Arena.
While Lin Tian was still panting heavily, Scott was already announcing the list of players who would take the lead in the fourth quarter: "D'Angelo, Jordan, Nick, Larry and Channing, you will play first at the beginning of the fourth quarter."
The presentation of this lineup shows that Scott has basically given up today's game, because this does not seem to be a lineup for chasing points.
Lin Tian stood up directly: "Coach, let me go up and fight first."
"But..." Scott hesitated, "You are tired enough today."
"It's okay, I can still fight." Lin Tian gritted his teeth.
He insisted on playing at the beginning of the fourth quarter, but Scott had no choice but to nod in agreement.
So the Lakers lineup at the beginning of the fourth quarter became: Russell, Nick Young, Lin Tian, Nance Jr. and Channing Frye.
