Chapter 254: It's the twins who decide the winner
On May 17, 2008, in Ji Guosha, Emma . After Watson was sent back to the hotel, the third game between the Lakers and the Hornets was also over.
After winning five straight games in the playoffs, the Los Angeles Lakers don't plan to be discouraged by a loss. While the home loss to the Hornets gave them home-court advantage and halted their winning streak, the Lakers only need to get a win back on the road and they can take the initiative again, which is what they are aiming for today.
Lakers point guard, Fisher, an old fish who was abused by Paul, said before the game: "We had a chance to win away today, but if we were going to play like the last game and make some mistakes that we shouldn't have made, then we didn't deserve to win." Of course, Lao Yu will not mention that he was blown up.
Bryant felt that he didn't do enough defensively and still needed to improve, saying: "The Lakers lost the last game because they made too many mistakes to win at home. Today we are going to minimize mistakes and control them. Just get stronger and make smarter decisions, and all we can do is put our hands in front of them, take care of the basketball, and do everything we can on the defensive end. â
Odom took the opportunity to hack the boss: "Kobe Bryant watched the game footage twice before going to bed yesterday, and he forced us to watch it together to let us know how many mistakes we made, and it is imperative to adjust, and I probably won't share my findings with you because I'm going to share it with the Hornets." â
The Hornets knocked out the Suns in the first round, and they visited Los Angeles with confidence and a winning feeling and won on the road. Chandler said confidently before the game: "Now we know we can beat this team and we know what the formula is to win. This one we have to replicate that formula. â
The boxing king said this a little earlier. The Los Angeles Lakers did not continue their poor run on the road. It was clear that they did reflect after the loss, and Kobe Bryant forced everyone to watch the tape, which was authoritarian but useful.
"Queen Bee" is undoubtedly the brain of the Hornets, and his form will directly affect the overall performance of the team. When Paul is in bad shape, the Hornets' offense is greatly reduced.
So. Relying on Paul has both made the Hornets strong and a goalkeeper, and if Paul is out of form or misses out due to injury in key games, the Hornets will be almost winless.
Kobe Bryant still didn't feel good in the first half, and Paul also fell into the quagmire of the Lakers' collective defense, and the score of the two teams was deadlocked.
Peter Pan regained his touch in the second half, scoring 14 points in the third quarter, and he led the Lakers to open up the gap in the third quarter, once again proving his power in key games and key moments. The Lakers defeated the New Orleans Hornets 102-84 on the road to change the series overall to 2-1. They are now getting closer to qualifying for the division finals, though not as close as the Clippers.
Bryant had 22 points, 8 assists and 7 rebounds, Walton had 15 points, 5 rebounds and 5 assists, Gasol had 13 points and 8 rebounds, Bynum had 11 points and 8 rebounds, Vujacic had 12 points, Radmanovic had 9 points and 5 rebounds, Odom had 8 points and 5 rebounds, and Fisher had 14 points and 5 assists.
Chris. Paul lost his senses under the heavy marking. He had only 15 points and 10 assists. Stojakovic 17 points and 10 rebounds. West had 18 points and 10 rebounds, Peterson had 15 points, and Tyson. Chandler had 10 points and 12 rebounds.
The Lakers regained home-court advantage, and the Clippers on the other side began to have bad luck.
On May 8, 2008, just Taylor. While holding the gossip magazine, Swift explained to his mother that he knew about it, and when the little fox had nothing to do with the British bitch, the Clippers' practice was plugged in, Billups was carried to the sidelines, and the whole team was in a heavy atmosphere.
Just before the fourth game with the Jazz, the Clippers came with bad news, Billups strained his right Achilles tendon during team training, and it is still unknown whether he can return in the next game, but according to internal sources, Billups's injury is not light, and it is unlikely that he will return.
Dunleavy Sr. canceled the original training plan, and Billups is now the most important player on the Clippers team other than the twins, and if he can't play, the impact on the Clippers is very serious.
When Sloan came to Los Angeles to hear the good news, he was excited for a long time, and then thought about it carefully, his grandmother's Billups didn't come to the Clippers, and they didn't have an advantage over the Clippers! In the final analysis, the core of the Clippers is the twin brothers instead of Billups, and Mr. Key plays the role of icing on the cake, as long as the twins are alive, the Clippers will not have much impact if they are missing, so it's too early to be happy, and if the twins hang up with the Jazz, they should be happy.
In his pre-match press conference, Sloan said: "We're in a Jedi right now, Billups is injured? We don't think too much about that, as long as the twins are on the pitch they don't become easy to deal with, we need to win a game away from home and if we lose this game we will be eliminated. â
Delong. Williams also said: "The last game was a very disappointing defeat, but it's not the end of the world, it's not the end of the series, we have to go back to Salt Lake City, so we can't lose this game today." Offensively, we should have done a little bit better, and of course they did a good job defensively, they were one of the best defensive teams in the league, and we haven't scored 100 points in the series, we averaged 106 points in the regular season. â
Asked about Billups' injury, Dunleavy Sr. said: "Chauncey is now on a daily watch list and it is unknown whether he will be available for the next round, but he will miss this game today. â
Half of the reporters' energy today is not on the game, of course, it has nothing to do with Billups' injury, and even the referee of the last game was banned by the league for 5 games today. Because they found more exciting news, Emma appeared in the major newspapers during the day. Watson's name, this British chick was secretly photographed by the paparazzi yesterday having dinner together after filming an advertisement with Ji Guoyi.
Although Ji Guoshi only put Emma after dinner. Watson delivered it to the door of the hotel and left, which gave them a lot less room to play, but the media still added fuel to the news that the two were suspected of being in a relationship.
These guys have collected money and are very dedicated, and the newspapers say that it is good and bad, and some people are even already criticizing Ji Guosha for carrying Taylor. Swift split legs, this Chinese is not a good thing to say; More good people went to interview Taylor. Swift, ask the little singer how he feels right now.
Although Ji Guoyi was prepared, he didn't expect the media to hype up one thing so powerfully, Aston Martin could only buy a few media at most, but with these media taking the lead, other media immediately flocked to follow up, and it only took one day to hype this matter to China.
Moreover, he now doubts that the money given to him by Aston Martin is not the same as Emma. Watson is different? Because little Hermione was asked about this today, the answer was ambiguous, this TM was obviously prepared, and it was more than his preparation, and yesterday he actually lied to himself that he didn't agree to the hype, and the chick's acting skills are really good.
Taylor. Swift continued to watch the game today, many cameras were aimed at her, the little singer's expression was like dozens of degrees below zero, even if she knew that this was not true, she felt super unhappy now, and even regretted that she didn't go with Ji Guozhi yesterday, and she must not let this dead fox meet that little British bitch again in the future.
In the Clippers locker room, Ji Guoqiu was frightened, although he had nothing to do with him, but he felt that the paparazzi were too terrible, if he and Emma were exposed. Roberts's relationship, then he and Twilight Girl must be finished.
"You now know how dangerous it is to step on two boats at once, right? Now that technology is so advanced, even if you live in a building, it will be exposed sooner or later, and I am here to give you a demonstration. â
"Don't worry, I'm confident that I'll hold on, by the way, I heard you're going to move?"
"That's right, Taylor. Swift wants to buy a house in Beverly Hills. â
"Very good, if you're tight on money, you can take care of me, I won't move anyway, it's just right that you get out."
Dunleavy Sr. glanced at the time, there was still half an hour left before the game started, Billups was wearing a suit in the locker room today, he has been diagnosed with a muscle strain, and he will have to rest for at least a week to two weeks, so this game must not be played. Old Dunleavy can only use Bleven today. Knight came to replace Billups, the two of them are not much different in terms of passing organization, but they are much worse in terms of outside projection and offensive threat, and if the Jazz are smart, they will definitely shrink the defense today.
"Today they will definitely shrink the defensive line, we use more off-ball cover tactics, fox you have to keep running, once a cover creates a zĂ o without a shooting opportunity, we will use a second cover, if necessary, you can play alone, in short, today's offense must be more resolute!" Dunleavy Sr. didn't stress too much about the precautions of the first few games, he thought that after saying so many times, the players should have taken it to heart and did not need to repeat it before the start of each game.
The Clippers players played, and after the home court ceremony, all the lights in the court were turned on, and Ji Guoyi easily spotted Emma. Watson, today she is dressed very flamboyantly, a delicate dress to put the unprepared Taylor. Swift pressed down instantly.
Ji Guoyi glanced at it, and quickly withdrew his gaze and put it all on Taylor. Swift if she finds herself staring at Emma. Watson, it's miserable to go home, don't look at it!
Taylor. Swift sees Emma. Watson was dressed in stunning makeup, and he was even more angry, and immediately looked at Ji Guoyi, and found that this dead fox was looking at himself instead of the little British bitch, and he was in a better mood. (To be continued......) R1292
