Zhao Chen's craziness in G3 caused a sudden increase in the attention of this G4 game.
Even though they know it's impossible, all fans still want to see if Zhao Chen can replicate the miracle of G3.
The ticket price for this game also reached the highest level between the two teams.
The Lakers lead 2-1. The G4 game is very important for the Clippers, which will determine the trend of their series.
If we can win, the game will go to Tianwang Mountain, and everything will be hard to predict.
But if they lose again, the Clippers don't have the genes for a comeback. They do have a lot of genes for being overturned.
Compared with the previous three games where we could occasionally see large-scale Clippers fans, there were even fewer Clippers fans in this game.
Clippers fans were basically demoralized by Zhao Chen in the last game. No fan thought that the Clippers could stop Zhao Chen, the killer.
They think whether the Clippers can win depends entirely on whether Zhao Chen plays hard. If Zhao Chen plays hard, the Clippers have no chance at all.
As a fan, it feels very uncomfortable to see this kind of victory relying on the attitude of the opponent.
After G3, the Lakers have completely become the most watched team in the NBA. All Lakers fans are also looking forward to Zhao Chen and Kobe Bryant joining forces to bring the Lakers back to the finals stage!
As for the Clippers? They are indeed strong, but they cannot stop the Lakers from advancing.
...........
TNT TV station and CCTV both broadcast the G4 live.
Barkley said: "Kenny, how does it feel to treat the fans to dinner?"
Smith smiled and said, "Not bad, I'll invite you again next time I have the chance."
Barkley said: "Let's make a bet today? Can Zhao score more than 60 points?"
Smith shook his head and said, "Forget it, I still have to keep my salary to support my family."
If it were before 94 points appeared, Kenny Smith would have agreed to this bet without hesitation, but now he is not sure at all.
What if Barkley and Zhao Chen team up to trade!
It's not a question of whether Zhao Chen can score 60 points, but a question of whether he is willing.
Buckley laughed and said, "Haha, you're scared."
Kenny Smith shrugged….
...........
"Director Zhang, how many points do you think Zhao Chen can score tonight?" Yu Jia asked.
"Hey, it's hard to say. I just hope someone can inspire Zhao Chen again." Zhang Weiping said.
"Haha, you are a bit unreasonable." Yu Jia laughed.
"I think this is what fans across the country want the Clippers to do, haha." Zhang Weiping said with a smile.
Zhao Chen scored 94 points, which was simply a celebration for Zhao Chen fans.
94 points widened the gap between Zhao Chen and many legendary superstars.
In the comparison of various historical status rankings, as long as Zhao Chen remains stable in his career, his ranking will not be lower than the top ten!
Of course, many people believe that Zhao Chen has locked in the top three and is qualified to challenge Jordan's status.
The fans wished that Zhao Chen would be angered.
...........
Staples Arena, the seats were filled early.
A group of sexy and beautiful fans wearing Zhao Chen's jersey became the most eye-catching group.
Zhao Chen's female fans are a relatively unique group. It is said that they like Zhao Chen's good looks and more skills.
No matter whether Zhao Chen performs well or not on the court, they will support him mindlessly.
They are Zhao Chen's craziest supporters and will be at the forefront fighting against Zhao Chen's black fans every time.
After the appearance ceremony, Jokic came to Zhao Chen and said: "Boss, those female fans of yours are very sexy."
"Nicola, if you said in the past that you could provide the boss's mobile phone number, I think those beautiful fans wouldn't mind having in-depth communication with you." Dinwiddie smiled.
"Zhao's charm is beyond your understanding." Kobe put his arm on Zhao Chen's shoulder and said with a smile.
Compared with before, Kobe was more willing to integrate with the team and joked with the rookies.
"Stop joking and focus." Zhao Chen said helplessly.
As time went by, Zhao Chen gradually gained the air of a boss, and his distance from his teammates was somewhat distanced.
The G4 game started soon.
The Clippers were very energetic in this game and overwhelmed the Lakers from the beginning.
Paul also learned from the experience and did not give Zhao Chen any chance to steal the ball, thus improving the accuracy of his passing.
The Lakers were at a disadvantage in the positional battle.
The game soon came to the second team competition stage in the first quarter.
The Clippers' lead at this time reached 8 points, the score was 20 to 28, and the Lakers called a timeout.
On the Lakers side, Zhao Chen led a group of rookies on the court, while on the Clippers side, Crawford and Griffin led the team.
Pause back.
Zhao Chen took advantage of Boban's screen and made a three-point jump shot, making a decisive hit!
23 to 28
Boban's coverage is very solid, and he can maintain sufficient physical fitness to complete various auxiliary tasks during the playoffs, averaging about 10 minutes per game.
Clippers attack.
Crawford tried a singles against Zhao Chen.
After a series of crazy dribbling changes, Crawford chose to use a jump shot that took one step back to the three-point line to end the game!
Zhao Chen's interference came as expected.
"frame!!!"
The basketball hit the front frame and bounced out.
The Lakers' second team is more proactive than the Clippers' second team. Everyone's footsteps are very fast, and Zhao Chen can help defend at will.
The rebound was taken by Randall.
Randall gave the ball to Zhao Chen.
Zhao Chen used tactics to advance.
Zhao Chen did not blindly push for speed, but focused on success rate.
The Clippers were very afraid of the Lakers' conversion and didn't give them any chance.
To the frontcourt.
The Lakers made a series of tactical moves.
The Lakers' front line has added air-cutting tactics, and Boban is also stationed inside.
Boban is very attractive in the interior. Although he does not have many offensive methods, as long as he gets the ball in the interior, it basically means scoring. Such scoring will hurt morale and the Clippers have to defend it.
After the continuous movement, Griffin was misplaced to guard Zhao Chen on the outside.
The Clippers did not use a pincer attack against Zhao Chen, but used their usual single defense strategy, with the focus being to limit Zhao Chen's three-pointers.
Facing Griffin, Zhao Chen started dribbling continuously.
Although Zhao Chen could see that Griffin's focus was on preventing retreats, Zhao Chen didn't care. After continuously dribbling to adjust his center of gravity, he took a step forward, and then retreated, creating space in an instant! !
Zhao Chen's quick jump shot! !
"Uh-huh!"
Another gorgeous three-pointer! !
26 to 28.
"Zhao Chen scored explosively."
"To be honest, the Clippers' defense did a great job and had a clear suppression effect on the Lakers' other points, but they couldn't do anything about Zhao Chen."
"Haha, Zhao Chen is indeed a BUG."
While the fans were discussing, the offense and defense on the field were reversed again!
Zhao Chen stopped Crawford's aggressive dribbling one-on-one.
Crawford's style of play is very streetball style, his dribbling is very fancy and he dribbles very frequently, but what Zhao Chen is not afraid of the most is this kind of attack.
Zhao Chen likes his opponents to keep dribbling against him.
This way he'd better steal the ball.
After Zhao Chen stole the ball, he accelerated directly and got rid of the Clippers' defense.
Impact to the frontcourt.
At the top of the arc, he converted a three-pointer and shot!
"Uh-huh!!!"
29 to 28!
Go-ahead score.
Seeing this ball, Rivers stopped the game regardless of the fact that there were 1 minute and 20 seconds left in the first quarter.
Zhao Chen's three-point combo really hurt!
