The second quarter started quickly, and Stephen Marbury returned to the bench to rest, replaced by Chris Duhon. Furthermore... David Lee also becomes Jeffries. As for Eddy Curry, he remained on the court.

The Lakers replaced the aging Derrick Fisher, who was beaten into a sieve in the clash with Stephen Marbury, and was replaced by Jordan Farmar...... In Phil Jackson's triangle strategy, the role of the point guard is actually weakened. Because, the triangle offense is essentially a way for a strong scorer to pull away from one-on-one singles.

When the whistle blew, Kobe pulled out his shotgun!

Bang!

The Black Mamba's first strong attack didn't hit the shot.

But Dugg, who was on the weak side, saw firsthand how the Black Mamba attacked, and although his shot missed, every step of the step, every shoulder shake, every feint of the tentative, and even the plucking of the fingers when shooting...... It all came naturally!

This left Dugg in awe.

He's recently regained his physical coordination to the point where he was before his height skyrocketed, but... If he wants to make such a natural offensive move, he feels that he must rely on hard practice.

Passing, dribbling, these are related to imagination and ball nature, talent to... Multiplier. But scoring skills still have to be honed by thousands of hammers. Although the feel is related to many things, the technique is practiced, and it is impossible to take a half-leave.

Swish!

Dugg completed the pick-and-roll with Jeffries in the frontcourt, and then assisted him to hit a pullup jump shot!

Tonight... Lamar Odom was a little out of balance. Since the opening game was ruthlessly cleaned up by Dug at both ends of the offensive and defensive ends, his first thought was no longer to win, but to teach Dug a lesson. This caused him to subconsciously focus on Dugg when defending the pick-and-roll, thus missing another defender. In the first verse, David Lee ate a lot of bread from this.

And it's worth mentioning that... Phil Jackson didn't bring Odom, who looked visibly out of shape, off the pitch. Maybe it's because the team really doesn't have any players available, or maybe they have other intentions.

Anyway, the Zen master didn't call any timeout in the first quarter, and he sat on the bench with his old god there, with an ethereal feeling of staying out of the matter.

Kobe Bryant turned around and went straight to the side to single Quentin Richardson.

Richardson hated Kobe Bryant to the core, and he showed a hundredfold enthusiasm for defense.

But... Kobe Bryant used a simple back-to-back shake to dry his defense to the side, then turned around and made a step-back jumper, and although Quentin Richardson's hands were almost in his face, he ...... Swish!

The basketball still fell into the net.

His offensive skills have reached the point where they are perfectly developed.

Dugg was fascinated.

So, looking back, he was also in a strong side back position. He tried to take out Ariza's defense with a back-to-back single.

However, his technical movements were too stagnant. Although he relied on his strength to push aside Ariza, a veteran UCLA senior, his step-back jumper looked out of place...... Bang!

Basketball hits iron.

There was some laughter at the Staples Arena.

Fans in Los Angeles were clearly taunting, arguing that Dugg's appearance of a tiger not being an anti-dog was too funny.

"Your pivot foot is turning the wrong one."

Kobe Bryant coldly dropped a sentence when he ran to the frontcourt.

He didn't even glance at Duge, as if he were speaking to the air.

Duge pursed his lips and frowned, he suddenly felt that Kobe Bryant was quite arrogant. At the beginning of April last year, he also spoke to himself so indifferently, when he wanted to touch his MOP trophy.

Kobe Bryant and Pau Gasol completed a beautiful wall-to-wall cooperation, Kobe Bryant quickly passed the ball to Gasol when he was caught in the box, and then jumped up from the back door, and Gasol threw the basketball under the basket...... The Black Mamba catches the ball in the air and puts the basketball into the hoop.

The clumsy and sluggish Eddie Curry was powerless to stop him.

In the rematch, Dugg assaulted the box and passed the ball to Richardson, but Richardson's three-point shot was interfered with by Kobe Bryant's flying pounce.

Albeit... Eddie Curry worked hard, but the rebound was eventually grabbed by Gasol.

The difference in strength between the two teams is visible to the naked eye, and although the Lakers are missing Andrew Bynum, they are still more than a step higher, especially when Kobe Bryant turns on offensive mode.

The Knicks' players were not intimidated by the black mamba's sudden fangs, and they were still very tenacious.

For them, now that they've made it to the finals, they have to leave something behind.

So, Jeffries desperately flew off the pitch to save the ball.

Therefore, in order to compete for the ball, Chris Dujon hugged Lamar Odom even if he was thrown to the ground, and never let go.

Therefore, even though Eddie Curry was sweating like sweat, he still stubbornly played with his back to the single, and even tried to jump hard to boost morale after turning around, although he was finally knocked out of the basket, causing laughter from all Lakers fans in the audience.

"In a way, Eddie Curry, who failed to dunk, represents the Knicks today. Even though they worked hard, fought hard and showed a very different attitude to the game. However, the gap in strength cannot be bridged with these spiritual powers. It's like Snoopy, no matter how hard he tries, he can't hit Kobe Bryant's deft back-to-back step and step-back jumper. ”

Speaking to the camera, McBrin said, "I have a lot of respect for the Knicks, I'm very bullish on their future, and I think they have a chance to be the true king of the East." But now, with three minutes to go until the end of the second quarter, the Lakers' lead has reached eight points. And that number will go up every minute for the next minute. ”

His voice had just fallen.

Drip!

Phil Jackson asked for a timeout.

Then, after 20 seconds.

The Lakers made a drastic change with DJs Mbenga, Luke Wharton, Lamar Odom, Shannon Brown and Sasha Vujacic on the court. It is equivalent to Odom attending alone with four substitutes.

At this point in time, the substitution lineup was a surprise to all commentators.

It's not a normal rotation time.

Isn't it time to strike while the iron is hot and completely collapse the Knicks?

Everyone was surprised by Phil Jackson's personnel scheduling.

At this time, the Knicks finally replaced Zach Randolph, and at the same time, Snoopy also returned to the power forward position. Gallinari was paired with Richardson on the wings, and the point guard was Nate Robinson.

It's a pure attacking lineup.

Bang!

While... Shannon Brown missed a shot, Dugg picked up the rebound, and the Knicks quickly urged the offense.

Arriving at the frontcourt, the ball was handed directly to Randolph in the middle of the box.

Randolph singled Mbenga with his back, although he was still a little uncomfortable after returning from injury, but Mbenga's level was indeed a bit low, which gave Lambenga a good chance to join forces, and he repeatedly turned twice before he reluctantly threw the basketball out...... Bang!

Basketball is slightly ironed.

But fortunately, Dugg shook off Odom in time, jumped up, and put the basketball into the basket.

Looking back, Odom, who has become the core of the rotation, seized the opportunity and tried to single Dug again.

But... Bang!

His shot was slightly missing the crosshairs.

Turning back, Dugg went deep into the box and then passed the ball to Gallinari from beyond the three-point line.

The Italians are up and down...... Swish!

out of three.

The margin quickly narrowed to 3 points.

The Knicks are on the rise.

But Phil Jackson obviously had no intention of calling a timeout, and he sat firmly in the military tent without lifting his eyelids.

He has his plans.

If this game is won too easily, then Bynum's ban is meaningless.

The elder Buss must be let know through this game: if Jim Buss takes 90 percent of the shares, it must be the beginning of disaster for the Lakers. He can't control the whole team, he just makes the team split faster.

At the same time, the Knicks, on their side, are frantically eating away at the point difference, while also making Zach Randolph constantly find the feeling of the game.

With the help of DJ Mbenga's efforts, Randolph's attack is getting smoother and smoother: for players returning from injury, it usually takes a defender who is not very strong but motivated to find the feeling of the game...... Mbenga is just right for Lan Fat.

At the same time, Richardson and Gallinari also stepped up.

They hit back-to-back threes!

Backbite!

At halftime, the whistle blew, 59:54.

The Knicks, on the other hand, were five points ahead.

But this did not make the fans at the scene nervous, as big fans, they are not worried about this at all, after all, everyone knows that the Lakers are far better than the Knicks.

And commentators on several TV stations also pointed out that the Lakers habitually underestimated the enemy, and as long as Kobe Bryant returned to the court in the second half, the situation could quickly turn around.

Then they began to discuss the duchess girls on the sidelines.

Because the camera on the scene found Taylor Swift refusing KK's handshake with a grim face, Selena had a good conversation with Carlie Krauss, and Demi occasionally joined in.

Taylor Swift gets together with Miley Cyrus, Rihanna, and Britney to chat.

They seem to be distinct and evenly matched.

This situation has sparked the curiosity of gossip fans to a greater extent, and they are glued to the television, trying to unearth some secrets.

But it seems to be fruitless.

Only Charles Barkley was the only one who spoke in the voiceover, and he commented on all the Duchess girls as a basketball player: "If Snoopy wants his child to become a child star, you can try to enter the marriage hall with Miley Sellers or Selena!" ”

"If Snoopy wants to have a bunch of little models, then Carlie Kraus is the best person to marry."

"If you want a little singer to inherit his talent, no one is better than Taylor Swift."

"But if Snoopy wants his kids to inherit their basketball genes. The best option is Rihanna, who looks even more physical, and their combination could produce a super-striker like LeBron James..."

His was complained by Earl Johnson: "According to your theory, if Snoopy marries Kim Kardashian, will he be able to give birth to a basketball player like Charles Barkley?" ”
