The game between the Clippers and the Lakers was broadcast live across the United States, with dozens of cameras focused on the field.
It can be said that every action and every expression of the players on the field cannot escape the capture of high-definition cameras.
When faced with dozens of scenes, the director of a TV station will select the most important and most watchable scenes and put them on the TV screen for the audience to see.
Smooth screen cuts, all-encompassing slow motion, and all kinds of little gossip inside and outside the field.
After decades of development, the NBA's live broadcast level is absolutely top-notch, making it worthwhile for viewers who pay for live game broadcasts.
Today's game between the Clippers and the Lakers has reached the critical fourth quarter, with the last minute coming.
With no hope of winning by more than ten points, the Clippers chased all the way and were only 5 points behind.
Curry's performance took the greatest credit. When he started holding the ball, the Lakers' defense was at a loss what to do.
But EPSN TV station was repeatedly replaying a non-game courtside scene: Clippers general manager Smart Min took the secretary's notebook next to him, wrote a sentence on the paper, then tore it off and asked the secretary to hand it to the head coach. Dunleavy, followed by Dunleavy called a timeout.
After the timeout ended, the Clippers' situation on the court changed.
This has to make people curious, what exactly was written on the note that Min Congda handed to Dunleavy?
The EPSN host stopped discussing the game situation during the timeout and instead speculated on the content of the note.
"This is definitely a reminder to Dunleavy to reuse Curry. I bet it is. Everyone knows how much Smart Min values Stephen Curry, which is why he was mentioned as the No. 1 pick."
Jason Smith insisted that Min Chongda asked Dunleavy to reuse Curry. In fact, he was right.
But expert Rick Butcher believes that in a team, it is difficult for the general manager to directly influence the coaching decision-making.
"If off the court, the general manager will exert influence on the head coach, how to arrange the lineup, and what tactics to use. But when it comes to the field, the head coach is the biggest. I think it is more of encouragement. Dunleavy has worked in the NBA for so many years Yes, he is not the kind of person who can be easily manipulated."
Both sides have their own reasons, but this does not affect the continuation of the game.
The most exciting moment of an NBA game is also the most exciting final minute of the showdown.
The Lakers' foul ball tactics were used when everyone thought the ball was going to Kobe.
Gasol received the ball outside the three-point line, and Kobe used the screen to cut to the basket.
Gasol passed the ball high and Kobe received the ball and dunked easily!
Tactical coordination in one go!
Gasol's role in the Lakers' tactical system is self-evident.
No wonder some fans said that Kobe was holding Gasol's thigh.
With and without Gasol, the Lakers are completely two teams.
At 104:111, this goal was scored, and the suspense of the game suddenly dropped.
The score difference of 7 points, less than 1 minute, is too difficult to chase.
The Clippers immediately called a timeout and deployed a quick attack tactic.
After the timeout, Curry circled to catch the ball. After receiving the ball, he suddenly passed a long pass to Gordon who was ambushing in the bottom corner.
Gordon, it's Gordon again. When he gets the ball, Lakers fans' hearts will thump.
Because it was his three-pointer in the opening game that caused the Lakers to lose the first game.
Gordon caught the ball and shot a three-pointer and hit!
The Clippers' offense only took 6 seconds.
107:111, only 4 points away, the suspense is still there.
The Lakers did not call a timeout at this time, and Kobe dribbled the ball from the backcourt past half court.
The Clippers once again chose to double-team, and Kobe passed the ball to Fisher.
Fisher's arc was empty and he shot a three-pointer to kill the game!
"Bald No. 2, you... why the hell don't you get in!"
Fisher, who has always been very reliable in key shots, missed his three-point shot this time.
Min Congda's heart was broken. I just wanted to try Curry's depth.
It's okay now. I don't know how deep Curry is, but I can tell how shallow your No. 2 bald head is.
Inside, Gasol once again grabbed a key rebound and passed the ball to Curry. Curry did not hesitate and did not call a timeout.
Quickly break through with the ball and rush to the front basket!
Kobe stayed close to Curry, constantly squeezing Curry's space.
Kobe is so strong, he walks sideways among shooting guards.
He once had the title of Little Malone.
Of course Curry can't beat Kobe.
But Curry flexibly uses the rhythm changes of his dribbling.
Break away repeatedly from outside the three-point line, all the way from 45 degrees to the bottom corner.
Rotate, change direction, step back, and force a three-point shot from a 0-degree angle!
This is a three-pointer from an almost negative angle, and Kobe has it in his face.
Curry fell backward and fell heavily to the ground.
But the ball still flew to the basket, and then the audience could hear a crisp "swish" sound.
Three point shot!
Curry made a super difficult three-pointer with 5 seconds left before the end of the game!
110:111, only 1 point away.
At this time, the Clippers players and fans were crazy with excitement.
But the game wasn't over yet, and the Lakers called a timeout.
Curry rushed back to the bench and high-fived Min Congda.
Min Congda really wants to give this guy a big shot. Can a guy like this make a shot?
Are you still a human being?
Now, the Clippers will definitely use foul tactics.
As long as the Lakers miss the free throw, the Clippers have a chance to turn defeat into victory.
Even if they make two free throws, the Clippers may still have a tie and enter overtime.
The fans at the scene were extremely nervous. The Los Angeles Derby was really worth watching.
The timeout ends and the Lakers serve a sideline ball.
The ball was still sent to Kobe's hands.
Baron Davis immediately fouled and sent Kobe to the free throw line.
Kobe's free throws were very, very solid and he made both free throws.
He has scored 33 points in this game.
At this time, there are still 4.5 seconds left for the Clippers.
If they still have a timeout, they can use a winning tactic.
It's a pity that Dunleavy just stopped briefly to arrange a small note from Min Congda.
As a result, the Clippers did not pause.
Therefore, the Clippers can serve hard from the backcourt.
Curry quickly got rid of it, but Kobe kept him on guard.
The ball was still passed, and Curry dribbled the ball and ran wildly.
I was too hasty, dribbling unsteadily, and Kobe intercepted the ball!
The ball rolled down, toward the sideline, and also rolled away the Clippers' last hope.
The buzzer sounded and the game was over. The Lakers relied on Kobe's final successful defense.
110:113, narrowly defeated the Clippers by 3 points and won the Los Angeles Derby.
It's a pity for the Clippers. Success is a small piece of paper, and defeat is a small piece of paper.
Because of Min Congda's little note, he changed his strategy and Curry started chasing him all the way.
Also because of the small note missing a timeout, the final attack could not be made and the game was lost.
Regarding this result, Min Congda found it quite good.
Not only did he lose the game, but he also enjoyed losing very much.
"It would be better if everyone was watching TV at home instead of coming to buy tickets to watch the game."
