On the Lakers' bench, Qiao Hai stood at the front, and he was very excited.

Similarly, in front of the Spurs' bench, Popovich also stood up, and he frowned, and the Lakers' three-pointer made him feel bad.

In Los Angeles, David Falck took a break from a meeting with a friend and took time out to turn on the TV to see the final moments of the game.

The camera showed Qiao Hai and Greg Popovich, David Falke pointed to Qiao Hai and introduced: "Look, this is my new customer Qiao Hai, he is only 24 years old, but he has already led the team to play two rounds of the playoffs, this is the third round, the first round of the playoffs, he and Rudy Tomjanovich fight, the second round of the playoffs, his opponent is Jerry Sloan, and now, he is against Greg Popovich again." ”

David Falck's friend was a huge fat man, with both chin almost hanging to his chest.

Hearing David Falck's introduction, he was a little strange: "When did you sign a head coach?" ”

"Just the other day." David Falck smiled. "A brilliant and young manager, isn't he?"

"Perhaps."

David Falck's friend was a little distracted, but the game was a great one, and he focused on the game on the TV.

The Lakers led by 1 point, and at this point, Avery Johnson controlled the ball in the backcourt and advanced to the frontcourt.

Tim Duncan walked to the mid-range position, backed Robert Horry, raised his hand to get the ball, turned and singled, Duncan advanced two steps, and hit another 45° board, the ball went in!

Duncan's singles are still very stable, the team overtook the score, Popovich let go of his hanging heart, the Lakers can make a three-pointer, Popovich does not think that with the Spurs' defense, the Lakers can make a second three-pointer.

"Tim Duncan is strong, David, you're missing out on a good employer."

Before Duncan's candidacy, David Falke wanted to sign Duncan, but in the end he failed to do so, and David Falke's friend brought up the old story, which also made David Falke a little helpless, he didn't want to miss Duncan, but Duncan didn't want to choose him at all.

In the end, Duncan signed an agent named Banks, David Falke knew that this Banksy was not a good person, and David Falke firmly believed that Duncan would regret it.

David Falck smiled and didn't say anything.

On the court, the Lakers were attacking, Scott Pippen controlled the ball, Kobe Bryant went around in a circle, trying to find an opportunity outside the three-point line, and he shot a three-pointer in the last offensive round, which made Kobe Bryant think that his outside hand was hot and could make another shot.

Pippen controlled the ball, O'Neal asked for the ball inside, Scott Pippen thought about it and didn't give it directly.

Holding the ball and taking two steps, Scott Pippen found that the Spurs had hoarded heavy troops to defend the interior, but the Lakers' defense on the outside was very lax, and there was only one Mario Airy who defended Kobe, and the interior was destined to have no chance, Scott Pippen thought about it for a while, chose to pass, and targeted Kobe!

Bryant kept running from the outside, from the bottom corner to the sideline, from the sideline to the top of the arc, and suddenly received the ball.

After getting the ball, Kobe Bryant didn't pause at all, took a step in place, and Mario Airy took a step back and stopped.

Kobe Bryant paused for a moment and raised his hand to make a fake shot, Mario Alley was not fooled.

Immediately after, Kobe Bryant really shot.

Outside the three-point line, there was another three-pointer, and with a bang, it went in again!

The scene was suddenly silent, and the Lakers, who only scored 8 points in the first seven minutes of the fourth quarter, suddenly broke out, hitting two three-pointers in a row and scoring 6 points in a row, and anyone had to be confused, let alone the Spurs fans on the scene.

Kobe's three-point shot instantly helped the Lakers overtake the score again, 77:75, and the Lakers also led by 2 points.

Greg Popovich has been standing on the sidelines, Kobe Bryant hit two three-pointers in a row, which is absolutely abnormal, he immediately called Mario Aley, took advantage of Duncan's backcourt serve, and told Avery to pay attention to Kobe's three-point next.

But in the next round, Duncan's single did not score, the Lakers grabbed the rebound, and directly played a wave of counterattacks, 79:75, and the Lakers' lead came to 4 points.

Duncan continued to take the ball, singled out Robert Horry's foul, went to the free throw line and hit one of two free throws, and hit the second free throw, so the Lakers served in the backcourt and couldn't fight back, so they could only obediently play the position to attack.

The position attacked, and Bryant got the ball again.

In the face of Mario Alley's defense, he directly wanted to soar three points.

As a result, Mario Aley paid too much attention to Kobe's three points, and was directly hit by Kobe's shooting action.

This time, the three-point was unguarded, and there was another crisp sound of wiping the net, and Kobe Bryant hit three three-pointers in a row!

The Alamo Dome is in direct despair! A loud exclamation was followed by a burst of boos.

The Lakers led by 6 points, and Popovich couldn't sit still and called a timeout.

……

In Los Angeles, David Falke beamed: "Tim Duncan is very good, this Kobe Bryant seems to be even better, three three-pointers in a row, and the Lakers are going to take away a win from San Antonio." ”

David Falck's obese friend really noticed Qiao Hai this time, because Popovich called a timeout and was about to sacrifice the shark cutting tactic, but Qiao Hai replaced the shark one step ahead, which directly made Popovich's follow-up adjustment fail.

It's a brilliant substitution, and it's bold.

The obese friend asked, "Is this young coach your new employer?" ”

David Falke nodded: "Yes, he was just signed two days ago, he is the acting head coach of the Lakers, but you know, Phil will take over the Lakers next season, so as soon as the Lakers' playoff journey is over, he will be a free man." ”

The obese friend smiled: "It's too young, it may not be stable." ”

David Falke shook his head and disagreed with this argument: "You can observe and observe, but don't miss a good coach, there are many teams interested in Qiao Hai now, and I don't know when he will be robbed." ”

……

As soon as the three-minute time limit expired, the pace of the Lakers slowed down, and Qiao Hai switched back to O'Neal, at this time, the Lakers had a 9-point lead over the Spurs.

In the last wave of the fourth quarter, the Lakers went directly from falling behind by 2 points to surpassing by 9 points, and the victory of the game was also grasped in advance.

Soon, in the last two minutes of the game, the Lakers dragged it to the end, and the 9-point lead also became 6 points in the Spurs' final counterattack, but in the end, the Lakers still won the first game of the Western Conference Finals with 90:84!

"Tough win, let's congratulate the Los Angeles Lakers! They were almost suppressed for the entire fourth quarter, but at the end of the fourth quarter, they played a super shockwave, Kobe Bryant hit four three-pointers in a row, which allowed the Lakers to finally win the game! ”

At the end of the game, McBrin routinely congratulated the winner.

Marf Albert also summed up the game with a short sentence: "The Lakers' spears couldn't pierce the Spurs' shield, but they still won." ”
