The situation in the third quarter was almost exactly the same as in the second quarter. It started as a stage between Kobe and James, and soon turned into a confrontation between Li Hao and Irving.
However, the play between these two people is very enjoyable and not offensive at all. This is the Quicken Loans Center. Although Irving has never been able to replace James' position in Cleveland, he was also the top pick of the Cavaliers' own selection and has been playing for the team for many years.
Li Hao has nothing to do with Cleveland, but he is already a supernova in the league, and his triple-double average this season has attracted worldwide attention.
In the third quarter, Irving once again scored 10 points with a combination of sudden shots, and Li Hao on the other side was not to be outdone. While scoring 10 points, he sent out 3 assists and grabbed 2 rebounds. He was only one assist and one away from a triple-double. A backboard.
With the outstanding performance of Li Hao and Irving, the two sides were tied in the third quarter, 95:93, and the Lakers still maintained their two-point advantage.
If in the first three quarters Li Hao pretended to leave the stage to Kobe and James, in the fourth quarter Li Hao said he was going to have a showdown.
In the fourth quarter, Li Hao went on the court without rest. His girlfriend cheered him on from the sidelines. Li Hao had to win this game no matter what.
Coincidentally, Irving on the Cavaliers side also did not rest, so the fourth quarter became a real man battle between Li Hao and Irving from the beginning.
Irving broke through with the ball, but facing Irving, Li Hao couldn't stop him. Irving passed Li Hao with a cross over, but the breakthrough did not mean that he was completely thrown away. Li Hao's speed and reaction were very fast, and he immediately chased back.
Pursuit from behind?
No, Irving seemed to have eyes in the back of his head. Not only did he avoid Li Hao's big hand, he also used an airborne hand layup to complete the score.
"Oh oh oh~~ Lee was tricked by Kyrie." Seeing the ball, O'Neal said with gloating.
"Shaq, you seem very happy to see Lee being tricked by Irving." The relationship is good, but you should be jealous even more.
"Of course, because I know Li Hao will definitely return it. We have a good show to watch." O'Neal will never admit that he is jealous of Li Hao's relationship with Kobe.
"Hey, Kyrie, you're scared," the man holding the ball across half court taunted Williams Irving, who was defending him.
However, Irving ignored Li Hao at all and followed Williams closely. Li Hao, who encountered a soft nail, did not lose his footing. He stepped directly past Shumpert and then met Mozgov with a dunk.
In the original history, Mozgov at the end of the season would be brought to Los Angeles by the Lakers for a four-year, $64 million super premium. No, it should be a stupid contract.
But this was in the original history, and this kind of thing would not happen in this world now, because Li Hao would stop it all.
Peng——
Bang——
boom--
"It's so cruel, Li dunked on this Russian center" 195 and 216. This scene can be said to be very shocking.
"Damn, why can't Lee enter the league earlier? I want to see him dunk on Shaq." Barkley did not forget to fall in love with O'Neal at this time.
"Charles, I'm a big shark," O'Neal said with a dissatisfied look on his face.
Mozgov's dunk was not only shocking, but also very morale-boosting. Although Li Hao still failed to guard Irving in the Cavaliers' next attack, no one on the Cavaliers side could stop Li Hao.
What's more, in the next wave of attacks, Li Hao sent Irving and a big fire pot. Irving is so awesome that I don't need to elaborate too much, but he happened to encounter Li Hao, a loser.
And blocking shots can change a lot of things once, such as the mentality of Li Hao and Irving.
In fact, the impact of this block on Irving was far greater than expected. Irving failed to score in the next wave of the Cavaliers' attack. On the contrary, the Cavaliers did not score in two waves, but the Lakers hit two three-pointers.
First, Li Hao hit a long-range three-pointer against Shumpert, and then Li Hao provided an assist for Williams, who made a three-point shot from the bottom corner.
The Cavaliers' next attack still failed to score a goal. Under Li Hao's entanglement, Irving passed the ball to Mozgov, who had just been dunked by Li Hao. The latter missed a layup under Blake's defense.
Li Hao rushed inside to grab the rebound and immediately passed the ball to Williams for a quick counterattack. Williams finally made a layup and scored another 2 points. The Lakers suddenly widened the point difference to 10 points.
With these two assists and a rebound, Li Hao's assists and rebounds both reached double digits, and the triple-double achievement was once again achieved.
Seeing that the point difference reached double digits, James on the bench couldn't sit still, and Cavaliers head coach Tyronn Lue was also unable to sit still.
Coach Lu studied under the "King of Reversals" Rivers, but he has a title that is completely opposite to Rivers, the King of Reversals.
However, at this time, Coach Lue has not yet received this title. Tyronn Lue, who only became the head coach this season, can be said to be an out-and-out rookie head coach.
But it was such a rookie head coach who led the Cavaliers to win the championship and made James' dream come true.
The main players of both sides returned to the court, and then the person guarding Li Hao became James. Obviously, facing the strongest player in the Lakers, the Cavaliers must deal with it at full level.
Bang——
This was the sound of iron striking. Under James' interference, Li Hao missed the shot.
But then James also missed a shot under Li Hao's defense, and then the iron buff spread between the two teams, followed by a crazy iron attack.
This really stunned the fans in the stands. They thought the game would be more exciting when the main players came back, but they were greeted with a roar of iron.
Each scored three points in three minutes, averaging one point per minute.
……………………………………………………….
The fight started with Li Hao, and it naturally ended with Li Hao. With 6 minutes and 1 second left in the game, Li Hao used a back-up shot in front of James to complete the score.
Then James hit his third three-pointer of the game, which was also the last three-pointer and even the last score of the game.
People's energy and physical strength are always limited, and James is already 31 years old, so after focusing on defense, James can no longer take into account offense.
Moreover, during the past period of time, Li Hao has been fighting James hand-to-hand, which further consumed James' physical energy.
On the Lakers' side, without James' entanglement, Kobe's performance began to pick up. Coupled with Williams' excellent form, the Lakers always maintained a 10-point advantage.
Kobe only scored 5 points in the first quarter, 0 points in the second quarter, and 3 points in the third quarter. After leaving James in the fourth quarter, Kobe scored 9 points, one point more than the previous three quarters combined.
Coupled with Williams' 10 points in the last quarter, the Lakers scored 35 points in the last quarter, while the Cavaliers only had 27 points.
130:120. The Lakers took a victory from Quicken Loans Arena with a 10-point advantage.
Li Hao produced perfect statistics. He played 38 minutes, made 15 of 25 shots, 5 of 10 three-pointers, and 6 of 7 free throws. He scored 41 points, 13 assists, 11 rebounds, 2 steals, and 3 blocks. .
