The fifth matchup between the Los Angeles Lakers and the New Orleans Hornets is back on the Lakers' home court, and this game is not to be lost for the Hornets, who have already been given match points by the Lakers, and if they lose one more game, they will die directly. The Hornets now have no choice but to grab this away game and return to their home court for the sixth game to have a chance to turn the tables and have a chance to stay on the playoff stage.

The two teams have played each other four times, and there are no secrets between each other, not to mention the Lakers, even the Clippers already know that if they want to beat the Hornets, they must first beat Paul, and as long as they can limit Paul, the Hornets will definitely lose!

Chris. Paul dished out 98 assists in nine playoff games, more than half of the team's total, and the team's offensive system relied on him to see how good he was. Looking back at the Hornets' nine games in the playoffs, Paul's worst game was the third series against the Suns, with 14 points and nine assists behind his poor 4-of-18 shooting, and it was the only game the Hornets lost in the first round. Counting the game against the Lakers, among the five victories won by the Hornets, Chris. Paul's table xiàn is remarkable.

New Orleanans are not only overly reliant on Chris. Paul, their weak bench is another weakness.

In the Hornets' loss to the Suns, Pargo's 30-point personal playoff scoring high seemed to save face for the Hornets' bench. But in terms of playoff minutes, Prego is more of a workhorse than Petterson, and even if Pago is listed as the team's super sixth man, the Hornets' bench players have averaged just 23 points per game in nine playoff games.

Paul and West, two All-Stars, play more than 40 minutes per game, making the Hornets' bench a much easier task. But if the main players are not in good shape, then it's hard to expect someone on the Hornets bench to take on the load.

The Lakers will be hoping to continue the strong performance of the previous game at home today, and they will knock the Hornets out of the tournament with just one more win; The Hornets are in desperate need of a win. Paul needs more help from his team-mates as they want to get back to home, so there is no room for error.

David. West opened the game with a strong desire to win, hitting two jumpers from mid-range, and Peterson followed up with a 3-pointer from the bottom corner. The Hornets opened the game with a 9-0*.

Kobe Bryant made a foul after a timeout and hit all three free throws. West hit two more jumpers as the Hornets continued to take the lead. New Orleans' interior core was just getting started, and in the last three minutes of the first quarter, West scored three consecutive attacks. The Hornets led by seven points at 25:18 in the first quarter. West scored 14 points on 7-of-9 shooting in the quarter.

In the second quarter, Wharton Jr. hit 3 points in a row, and he led the team to play a round of 6:0 attack wave, and the Lakers chased the difference to only one point.

The Hornets were really ineffective on the bench. Scott could only replace the main force in advance to stabilize the situation, but this quarter Wharton Jr. and Lao Yu were full of firepower, even if West still continued to feel good in the first quarter, but unfortunately Paul played average today, Kobe Bryant scored five points in a row before halftime, and the Lakers overtook 46:44.

Bryant had 10 points and five assists in the first half, Walton and Fisher each had 10 points, and Gasol had four points and 11 rebounds. The Hornets' West had 22 points and seven rebounds. Paul had six points and six assists, while Peterson and Stojakovic each had six points.

David. West and Tyson. Chandler scored two points each at the start of the third quarter, and Paul scored seven points on his comeback. They led an 11-2 offensive wave that put the Hornets up by seven points at 55-48.

The Lakers were stunned by the attack wave of the Hornets, and the Lakers' offense still did not improve after the timeout, Peja hit two 3-pointers from the left wing, and he led the team to play another 8-0 attack wave, and the Hornets led 62-48. By the end of the third quarter, the Hornets had come out on top to take a 15-point lead over the Lakers at 73:58.

After the start of the last section. The two teams each played several attacks, and the game went into a stalemate. Tyson. Chandler made three blocks in the final quarter and five blocks in the game, freezing the little shark Bynum who the Los Angeles Times had just bragged about. West blew up Gasol, and the Lakers' interior line was completely blown up by the Hornets in the last quarter!

The Hornets in a desperate situation played well today, but nearly half of the Lakers' players fell into a slump, especially their strong interior line was defeated by the little-known Hornets inside, which was difficult for proud Lakers fans to accept.

Bryant fell into a solo state in the final quarter, and although Peter Pan hit consecutive shots, the Lakers still trailed by eight points at 77:85 in the final 4:55.

Chris. Paul made two consecutive layups at key moments, and the Hornets led 89-77 with 3:20 left before the end, and the Lakers were unable to turn the game around in the final minute, and they lost 81-102.

David. West had 39 points, 14 rebounds and 5 assists, Paul had 20 points and 14 assists, Peterson had 12 points, Pargo had 10 points, Stojakovic had 12 points and 10 rebounds, and Tyson Money. Dele had 10 points and 10 rebounds.

Bryant. Bryant scored 28 points for the Lakers, 13 of which came in the fourth quarter, but his teammate was sluggish. Gasol finished with 13 points and five rebounds on 5-of-16 shooting. Odom shot 2-of-10 from the field and finished with 6 points, 6 rebounds and 5 assists. Bynum had 5 points and 8 rebounds, Wharton Jr. had 13 points and Fisher had 11 points.

The Lakers gave their home fans an ugly game today. Bynum and Lamar. Odom both fell into foul danger, and the two of them were trapped for fouls throughout the game, and their playing time was drastically reduced, and the two of them combined just scored in double digits, as many fouls as they did.

Odom was sent off for six fouls before the end of the game, and Bynum was able to catch his breath with five fouls. Gasol, their regular season table xiàn excellent Spanish interior play today is not a passing grade, it can be said that it is just as bad!

The Los Angeles Times headlined in big print after the game: The interior has become the weakness of the team, what do the Lakers use to fight the twin brothers?

The overall score became 3:2, and the Lakers will go to the sixth matchup on the road in the next game, and if they lose again, the two teams will be tied. At that time, the morale of the Hornets will inevitably be strong, and whether the Lakers can hold the last home court will have to put a big question mark?

Magic Johnson followed the trend after the game to criticize the team's interior line, and he thought that against the Hornets, maybe the Lakers don't need the "Big Three" (Kobe, Gasol, Odom) to play all the power. But what if the opponent is the Clippers or the Celtics? That's the real enemy of the Lakers this season.

Whether it is the Clippers or the Green Shirts, they are similar to the "Big Three" or even the "Big Four" configuration, and they are no worse than the Lakers in terms of lineup. If the Lakers run into them, the most worrying thing is undoubtedly the interior. The Clippers twins and the Celtics' Kevin. Garnett is only stronger than the Lakers' interior line, and he is also a core part of the team's offensive and defensive system. That would undoubtedly be disastrous for the Lakers.

Kobe Bryant may be enough to help the team get through the second round of the playoffs, but if you still have the championship dream in mind, you have to count on Gasol, Odom and Bynum to play at a high level. They don't have the slightest advantage over the Clippers.

Game 6 between the Lakers and Hornets will be played on May 14, and the Clippers are now finding that they are not a good thing to advance too early, starting from the 8th when they eliminate the Jazz, if the Lakers and Hornets play Game 7, then they will have to rest for almost 10 days, which will make their state unpredictable at that time, 10 days are enough time for a vacation, and the domestic eleventh long vacation is only seven days. Although resting for so long can give them an absolute advantage physically. But if you lose your game form, it's not necessarily a good thing.

The Clippers have no games to play during this time, and the players can only focus on training. But it can't be all training, so Ji Guoqiu found that he had more time to play games with Xiao Radish Silk, which was a good thing for him.

On May 13th, Ji Guoqiu was working with Emma. Roberts played GTA4 online, and he didn't notice that Little Radish had been not quite right for the past few days, and the latter hesitated for a long time. Suddenly plucked up the courage to look at Ji Guoqiu and asked, "Christine is your girlfriend, right?" ”

Ji Guoqiu heard this. At that time, a cold sweat broke out, and he never imagined that the big-mouthed girl would suddenly ask him this question. It was too sudden to react at all.

Emma. Roberts looked at him carefully, saw that this guy looked panicked, and said lightly: "It seems to be true, I have seen a lot of your news from magazines recently." ”

"This ...... This ......"

Ji Guoqiu felt that the matter had come too suddenly, he hadn't figured out how to deal with this matter, and he didn't have an excuse prepared in advance to deal with this tense situation, and now he was anxious to scratch his ears and cheeks.

Emma. Roberts looked at his panicked egg pain and shook his head: "Are you in a hurry?" Seeing that your face is covered in sweat, I have already guessed that you have a girlfriend. "Speaking of which, Emma. Roberts paused, stared into his eyes and said, "But I haven't been able to guess, what are you thinking in your heart?" ”

Ji Guoqiu was a little unsure of what she meant, so he put down the handle and looked at her, looking stupid.

Emma. Roberts also put down the handle, picked up a magazine beside him and handed it to Ji Guoqiu, and said: "I saw this in the morning, I saw the news of you and Christine a few months ago, and I didn't want to ask you about it directly, because I think I can feel your feelings." It's just that there have been more and more scandals about you recently, which makes me a little unsure of my feelings, maybe my feelings are wrong......"

Ji Guoqiu is a little confused, Emma. Roberts's words twisted and turned, and he didn't know what to say, but he couldn't say nothing now, this kind of scene was terrible!

"Is she forcing me to confess? How do I answer? Second, you're not here, what should I do? Help me! When Ji Guoqiu had no choice, he would think of the dead fox and try to shout in his heart.

"You're lucky, I just happened to be online, the words of the big-mouthed Lori, don't tell me sù you can't hear it? You know, lately even Taylor. Swift asked me about you and Christine, and you made such a high-profile thing, how could that big-mouthed Lori not know. In fact, I think she can't help but ask you now, it's incredible. My Jianyi, you'd better confess to others, don't keep thinking about stepping on two boats with one foot, otherwise don't blame me for not warning you when the ship is wrecked and people die. "Ji Guoyi is talking to Taylor at this time. Swift watched the movie and smiled at the little singer: "Do you know, my brother has been miserable recently, he stepped on two boats, and it is estimated that he will die miserably!" But he deserves it! ”

Taylor. Swift plucked an orange on the side and asked, "Then have you learned from your brother?" ”

Ji Guoyi immediately smiled and said: "Look at the joke, how can I have time to complete such a complicated task, by the way, I will give you a gift." ”

Taylor. Swift watched Ji Guoyi walk to the door, and took out a small red box like a ring box from the hanging backpack, his face instantly turned red, and he was startled!

"Take it apart and take a look."

"This ...... Too fast, right? ”

"Quick? That's right, it's really fast, and it's expensive! ”

"I ...... I'm going to think about it...... Give me a day. ”

Taylor. After Swift finished speaking, his face turned even redder, which made Ji Guozhi feel very strange, can a car be so excited? Another day to consider?

※※※※※

Ji Guoqiu is here and Taylor. Swift's expression at the moment is very similar, they are all at a loss, so that Emma. Roberts' face darkened.

"Do you like her a lot?" Emma. Roberts asked.

"This ...... This ......" Ji Guoqiu really didn't know how to answer at this moment.

"You should always say something, then I ask you, do you like me?" Emma. Roberts was forced to be anxious, seeing that Ji Guoqiu didn't speak, the little radish shredded was also out of the way, and directly gave the giant panda a single move.

Ji Guoqiu reacted quickly this time, and said without thinking about it: "I like it!" ”

Both of them were a little red for a moment, Emma. Roberts didn't know what to say, and after being cold for a long time, Ji Guoqiu's thinking ability recovered a little, and he said loudly: "I'm sorry Emma, this magazine is not wrong, I have been dating Christine for a long time, and I didn't know you at that time, and the reason why I didn't tell you is that I haven't figured out how the relationship with Christine will develop in the future." ”

Emma. Roberts nodded, and tried to ask, "I want to ask you an offensive question." ”

Ji Guoqiu didn't even think about it: "You ask." ”

"I want to know, did you take the initiative to chase her, or did she chase you?"

"This ......" Ji Guoqiu's face was unnatural, and he hesitated for a long time before saying: "This question, can I not answer it?" ”

Emma. Roberts suddenly laughed, the little beauty's mouth is indeed a little bigger, it is estimated that she can stuff a big steamed bun, and the little radish shredded looked very happy: "I know, she chased you!" ”

Ji Guoyi lamented in the giant panda's heart at this time: "Boss, I can only say that you are awesome, it seems that there are girls who want to chase after you, why can't I touch such a good thing, are these two girls mentally retarded?" Please God give me such a mentally retarded girl......"

Taylor. Swift was holding the box at this time and looking left and right, silly and indeed a bit like a retarded person.

Emma. Roberts didn't ask more next, Ji Guoqiu didn't know what she was thinking, the two continued to play the game next, and didn't mention the topic of Christine again, if there was any difference, it was that Ji Guoqiu found Emma. Roberts's record is better than just now, and the girl likes to use sniping in any game, and the headshot rate is super high. (To be continued) R466
