In the Brooklyn locker room, the players looked a little tired.
This game was really tense, and coupled with the endless singles played by the core players, the role players did not have much sense of presence.
A game without passion will make players feel physically and mentally exhausted.
"Coach, the team is playing like this, it's not easy to win!"
Brown was outspoken and was the first to raise his objection.
In previous games, Harden was still more inclined to share the ball with his teammates.
But today, Bai Qiang basically played post-up in the paint.
Although Bai Qiang had said hello beforehand, if the fight continued like this, his teammates still couldn't help but feel resentful.
"Bruce, didn't you notice the scoreboard?"
Nash was sitting on a stool, looking like he was strategizing and winning a victory thousands of miles away.
"But we are only ahead by five points, which can easily be overtaken by our opponents."
Brown didn't see that the coach was protecting the core players and kept talking to himself.
Obviously, if Brown were in China's officialdom, he would only be an ordinary civil servant for the rest of his life——
How can one survive in the adult world without the ability to observe words and emotions?
"That's enough Bruce!"
Nash shouted to stop Brown from continuing to make irresponsible remarks. The fact that the team is ahead proves that his tactics are successful. As for the point difference, this is only a secondary issue.
A team can win even if they lead by one point; so why bother focusing on the point difference?
"You do what you have to do, and I won't worry about the rest!"
After saying that, Nash walked out of the locker room.
He now has great trust in Bai Qiang. Facing Ibaka, Bai Qiang's dominance is self-evident.
He had scored 20 points in the first half, plus 8 rebounds and three blocks.
Whether it is statistics or the intimidation brought by Bai Qiang on the court, he has proven that he is a center player who can shoulder heavy responsibilities.
But then again, it's understandable that teammates have issues with him.
Everyone wants to be a hero that attracts everyone's attention, not just a supporting role for others.
Both sides returned to the field and the game continued.
Compared with the first half, the Clippers players had a little more fighting spirit in their eyes.
It seems that Tyronn Lue mobilized the players in the locker room, which made the players full of energy.
The Clippers had the ball, and Paul George dribbled the ball slowly across the half court, passed Harden's defense, and hit the inside.
"Thanks for the basketball, man."
With that said, Bai Qiang moved quickly and came to the front of the basket, blocking George's path.
Ibaka also tried to use his body to trap Bai Qiang, but to no avail.
The unpleasant atmosphere in the locker room aroused Bai Qiang's competitive spirit.
You question me so much, and it really doesn't make sense that I won't show you my dominance.
A devastating block?
no!
Bai Qiang performed a mid-air grab at the Staples Center Arena, which shocked tens of thousands of fans.
The moment George saw that the defender in front of him was Bai Qiang, he immediately blasted the ball to the right, and then moved to the left——
He tried to use his tried-and-tested European step to shake Bai Qiang away and complete a gorgeous finish.
But he still underestimated Bai Qiang's defensive ability. After Bai Qiang grabbed the shot, he passed the ball to Harden.
At the same time, he did not stand still and watch his teammates' fast breaks.
Bai Qiang leaned down and ran forward like a wild horse running wildly.
Harden noticed this, so he lowered the tempo and attracted defenders.
"James!"
Harden heard Bai Qiang's instruction and decisively threw the ball toward the basket.
Beverley also wanted to try to intercept in the air, and he overestimated his bounce.
"Clang~"
Bai Qiang jumped up from behind Beverly, held the basketball with one hand, and slammed it into the basket.
At this moment, the basket is trembling, Beverley is annoyed, and the fans are chanting!
Although the person who completed the dunk was the enemy of the home team, the fans could not help but sigh:
This Asian's physical fitness is really not explosive.
Beverley brought the ball across half court. Although he was a point guard, he had no gorgeous dribbling or precise shooting, only desperate defense.
After Beverly made two disguises in front of his body, he pretended to break through the basket. Ou Shenxian followed him closely, not giving him any space.
Leonard caught the ball and raised his hand to feint, but Harris was smart but didn't jump.
Suddenly, Leonard accelerated from the left and pushed forward. When Harris stepped back, he quickly retreated to the three-point line and took a jump shot.
Leonard was once an excellent 3D player, and later evolved into an offensive and defensive warrior.
"Dang~" The crisp sound of iron strike indicates that the Clippers' offense has stopped rhythm.
Bai Qiang jumped up high and grabbed the rebound. With the blessing of [Guardian of Backboards], Ibaka was completely different from him.
Ou Shenxian received Bai Qiang's pass, and then passed the ball to Harris, who was already in position.
As the team's most stable three-point output point, Harris continues to expand the team's lead with his shooting skills.
The Clippers attacked, George broke through and scored, assisting Batum to hit a three-pointer.
But before they could be happy for too long, Harris once again caught the ball and made a jump shot, steadily hitting a three-pointer.
Answer ball!
Brooklyn is not shy at all against Biao. For them, scoring is like picking something up.
In the beginning of the third quarter, the players from both teams felt hot enough.
But as he continued to play, he slowly cooled down, and shooting and shooting took over.
Six minutes into the game, Nash requested a timeout.
He felt that Bai Qiang should be given some rest time. After all, the fourth quarter was the top priority.
In this way, Jordan will get a chance to play.
When Brown saw Bai Qiang take a break, he felt inexplicably happy.
As everyone knows, after Bai Qiang takes a break, the team will fall into a passive state.
The Clippers replaced two major inside players, Zubac and Morris, and took turns attacking Rooklin's penalty area.
Jordan didn't expect that Tyronn Lue would target him like this——
When fighting Bai Qiang, don't let these two characters play. When it's your turn to play, you will die.
I'm afraid that Bai Qiang didn't bribe Tyronn Lue to protect himself, right?
The game is in full swing, and the Nets' situation is becoming increasingly unoptimistic.
Ou Shenxian and Harden can also score from the outside with their individual singles abilities.
But other teammates were not so lucky. They sent steals and blocks to their opponents again and again.
The Nets' lead was slowly erased to single digits until it no longer existed.
Nash was ruthless and did not make any substitutions, even though his opponent had already taken the lead——
The difference of only 6 points was only two rounds. When Bai Qiang came up, he was instantly reversed!
