Chapter 322

Sun attack.

Marbury looked for Li Ba, and he wanted to pay back one ball.

The Lakers obviously know that this ball is likely to be played by Li Ba, and the two super insiders are ready to fight.

O'Neal directly defended the basket. This is Li Ba's weakness. No matter what, he will eventually go there to attack the basket.

If he leaves, Malone will make up immediately, and the two will take turns sitting at the basket.

Therefore, Li Ba was shorted at a low position.

"This is so fucking sad for me."

After catching the ball, Li Ba complained to himself.

"Pest No. 68, is there any way to vote there?" Kobe on the left flank behind Li Ba laughed abruptly.

"Mamba, it's my fault for not hating you today, and I will change it." Li Ba immediately sprayed.

After saying this, he suddenly moved, grabbed the ball with one hand, and threw it towards the top of the arc.

Everyone's eyes followed his movements, looking in that direction, except for O'Neill.

O'Neill stared at Li Ba closely, he knew that this big pest would not pass the ball.

Sure enough, Li Ba didn't make the pass. He entered the paint and went straight to O'Neal.

"squeak!"

One step away from O'Neal, he stopped suddenly, stood up, grabbed the ball with his right arm, and made a shooting motion.

O'Neal instinctively jumped up to block the shot.

"Little hook?!" Zhang Lili yelled anxiously.

But at this time, Li Ba retracted suddenly, dribbled the ball once, stepped forward half a step, stepped on the ground, raised one arm, and smashed down hard.

At this time, Malone bypassed Voskul's screen and double-teamed up, but it was half a step late.

"boom!"

Heavy dunk with one arm, trembling at the basket.

"Boom!"

Li Ba bumped into O'Neill who had just landed, and the latter didn't stop, but the tonnage was there, and Li Ba didn't have enough momentum, so he only took half a step back.

"flute!"

The whistle sounded, O'Neill blocked the foul, and Li Ba added a free throw.

"Oh, oh, it's a ball for a ball! This is the rule of the league!" The Suns on-site commentator yelled wildly.

"Hey, Shaq, how do you feel? I said you will get used to it, are you used to it now?" Li Ba sprayed on the ground.

"Hammer, I will pay you back, for sure."

O'Neill looked down at Li Ba and growled in a low voice.

To be honest, if someone else dunked on his head, he would definitely pull it down, but Li Ba, he still didn't dare to make such a heavy hand, so he could only return one ball.

Li Ba made a free throw, this time it was good, he hit the basket and went in.

At 13:18, the Suns led by 5 points.

The Lakers attack.

Bryant, who was operating on the left wing, ran back, leaving Posey behind.

Payton passed the ball immediately, and Kobe took advantage of the momentum to get into the paint.

Li Ba could only come over to defend.

The defense was successful, and Kobe was blocked outside the paint.

But at this moment, O'Neal stood on Li Ba's right side and made a crucial pick-and-roll screen.

Bryant took the opportunity to bypass O'Neal and reached the paint.

At this time, Marion came from the right wing to block Kobe, but O'Neal had turned around and received Kobe's back pass.

"boom!"

The Suns basket sank violently again.

"Big pest, I'm blowing up your basket, where are you?" O'Neill landed and roared at Li Ba.

"Come again!" Li Ba said coldly.

"Papa..."

On the sidelines, Phil Jackson applauded.

He didn't expect that at this time, Kobe and O'Neal played a tacit cooperation, which he wanted but couldn't get.

Next, the two sides came and went, the first quarter ended, 25:26, the Suns led by 1 point.

Kobe didn't make a shot from behind. He made 3 of 4 shots and 1 of 1 free throw in a single quarter, scoring 8 points.

O'Neal made 6 subsequent shots, 3 of which were scored, 1 was blocked by Li Ba, 1 turnover, and 1 was sent to the free throw line. In a single quarter, he made 5 of 8 shots and 2 of 3 free throws. He scored 12 points, 3 rebounds, 2 turnovers and 1 foul. .

Li Ba did not attack from behind, except for grabbing rebounds, he just defended O'Neal with all his strength, but he activated O'Neal, and it seemed to activate Kobe's assist attribute. Twice, once to the free throw line.

He made 5 of 5 shots and 1 of 3 free throws in a single quarter. He scored 11 points, 6 rebounds, 4 steals, 1 block, 1 assist and 2 fouls.

"The Suns' outside touch is still solid, the same as the previous two games. Today's rebounds are not bad, 19 rebounds, the Suns grabbed 11, the Lakers 8, and the Hammers 4 steals, 7 more possessions, The Hammer scored another 11 points, a possession was not wasted, but the team only led by 1 point." Yu Jia said.

"I'm tired, the hand feeling must be bad." Zhang Lili said.

"The Hammer made two fouls in the first quarter, all on O'Neill, we should pay attention today." Yu Jia said.

In the second quarter, for the Suns, the other starters rested, and Li Ba played the first half of the quarter.

He didn't play on the offensive end, grabbed rebounds with all his strength, caught 5 in the half quarter, also sent 2 blocks, 2 steals, 2 assists, and made another dunk.

The substitute lineup is not good enough to score. The rookie Barbosa makes mistakes and wastes the ball. If it weren't for Battier's good defense on the outside, Kobe was well restricted, as big as 3 of 5 shots in 7 minutes. With 7 points down, the bench lineup will also have to be overwhelmed.

Relying on the performance of Li Ba, Battier, and Dazhi in the first half of the second quarter, the point difference was widened to 6 points.

For the Lakers, it was different from the previous games. Malone played the first half of the quarter, O'Neal didn't play for a minute, and Kobe played the entire quarter.

After Li Ba left the field, Kobe began to break through. Without Li Ba's strong control inside, Battier couldn't press him down. 11 points were scored.

At halftime, 45:45, the two teams tied.

Fifteen minutes later, the second half began.

The third quarter begins.

The outside lines of the two teams took over the offense, but the touch was not good, and the whole game was played.

The insiders of both sides fully controlled the rebounds, and the positions in the paint area were very intense.

Li Ba grabbed 8 rebounds in a single quarter, Voskull grabbed 2, O'Neal and Malone grabbed a total of 10 rebounds, the two teams tied on the rebounds inside, plus the outside, 13:14, the Suns caught 1 less rebound.

Li Ba once again sent three steals, two blocks, one assist, and one foul.

At the end of the three quarters, 63:64, the Suns led by 1 point.

"The Suns feel worse than the Lakers in this quarter. They took more shots and only scored 1 point." Yu Jia said.

"The Lakers took 23 shots, the Suns took 26 shots, and the Suns took 3 more shots. With so many shots in one quarter in the playoffs, the shooting percentage is too bad." Zhang Lili said.

"The score is not wide, the fourth quarter may be more intense." Yu Jia said.

"Due to hand feeling problems in the third quarter, the two sides continued to change players. The starting players got a certain amount of rest. This quarter must have been desperate. The Suns won and entered G7, and the Lakers won and entered the Western Conference finals." Zhang Reasonable said.

At the beginning of the fourth quarter, the lineups of both sides are the starting lineups of the first quarter.

The Suns attack and serve from the baseline.
