MTL - NBA: About Me Being Reincarnated As Yasuo, the Wind Walker-Chapter 167 The horn of counterattack
[NBA: About my reincarnation as Hayate Yasuo]【】
"Please enter the field quickly, the game is about to start."
A staff member at the ticket gate was maintaining order in the passageway. Taylor Swift took her ticket. She didn't quite understand why Black Lively came to Portland to watch the game.
"Your home is in Los Angeles, and your work is also in Los Angeles. Don't you feel tired traveling between Portland and Los Angeles?"
Black Lively took off his sunglasses and said, "Do you get tired of talking back and forth when you go to a New York Knicks game?"
Taylor Swift shook her head repeatedly and said, "That's different. I've been a Knicks fan since I was a child, and you know, the Knicks are not just an NBA team, it's New York."
"The Knicks' home court is no longer just a basketball court. It is more like a show to show their charm to the world, so many stars will choose there and become fans there."
As a qualified star, it is natural to always think about how to increase your influence and popularity. New York and Los Angeles are indeed the best places.
That's why Blake Lively will be in Los Angeles to watch the first playoff series between the Lakers and Trail Blazers.
"But Taylor, sometimes things cannot be explained by fame and fortune."
Taylor Swift said with some surprise: "How can that be explained? Could it be that you are a fan of the Portland Trail Blazers?"
Black Lively smiled and said, "I'm a fan of Zhang Jun."
Moda Center Arena.
The game starts soon.
The Lakers took the lead as soon as they came up, and Gasol scored inside dunks and mid-range shots.
Facing the roar of Portland fans all over the sky, all members of the Lakers were not affected in the slightest.
Luo Yin then made the main attack. Facing Kobe's defense, his two consecutive rounds of singles ended in iron strikes.
"The Blazers' offense relies heavily on the singles of Luo Yin and Zhang Jun. Luo Yin's personal offense has not been able to start the entire series until now. This is the root cause of the Blazers losing two games in a row."
Kenny Smith couldn't help but let out a long sigh.
This is the gap between Luo Yin and Kobe. Maybe Luo Yin is good enough and has been selected as an All-Star in his second year as a rookie, but don't forget that he is still just a rookie.
"People are used to Zhang Jun's miraculous performance in his rookie year, so they preconceived that everyone should play such a performance. In fact, he was able to face Kobe in the playoffs in his second year as a rookie. Luo Yin The pressure to face is horrific.”
"Not every rookie in the league can face Kobe like Zhang Jun in the first year without fear."
Halfway through the first quarter, the Trail Blazers trailed by 4 points at 13:17 at home, and the score tended to continue to expand.
Nate McMillan couldn't bear it anymore, because he had seen this scene too much, and this scene was extremely familiar.
As long as the Lakers lead in the first quarter, no matter how hard the Trail Blazers work, the victory in the final game belongs to the Lakers.
So Nate McMillan called a timeout immediately.
"Guys, we can't keep fighting like this."

"This is the rhythm of the Lakers. The game is still in their rhythm. If we continue to play like this, we will definitely lose."
Monty Williams handed over the tactical board, but Nate McMillan directly pushed it away. He knew that any tactics at this time were meaningless.
In the series between the Lakers and the Trail Blazers, both teams are already very familiar with each other's tactics and style of play.
"Zhang Jun!"
"You have to stand up!"
"You have to carry the team forward!"
"This is your team!"
Nate McMillan's words woke up Zhang Jun and everyone on the Trail Blazers.
The Trail Blazers have always built a three-core team, including the players in the Trail Blazers. Everyone definitely believes that this team is the team of Zhang Jun, Luo Yin, and Aldridge.
But in fact, this team has become Zhang Jun's team from a certain moment.
The Trail Blazers relied on him to open up space for the team in the first quarter, relied on him to lead the rotation lineup in the second quarter, relied on his connection bombing with Luo Yin in the third quarter, and relied on him to harvest the game in the fourth quarter .
From the beginning to the end, this is a team that relies on Zhang Jun. Without him, it is impossible for the Trail Blazers to reach the Western Conference Finals.
Luo Yin thought about his sluggish performance in these two games, and also thought that Zhang Jun had been trying to get away from Kobe's defense, so he suddenly raised his hand and said.
"Brother, we are all willing to follow your leadership, you have to lead us to win."
Aldridge nodded and said, "We're all here to help you, to kill the **** Lakers."
Zhang Jun let out a long breath, and then clenched his fists tightly.
He knew that the team was in trouble again at this time, and this was not a time for humility and humility. He needed to give himself and his teammates confidence, and he needed to stand up and stabilize their lost emotions at this time, so he nodded and said.
"Give me the ball, go kill 'em all off their feet."
The game restarts.
The Trail Blazers have the ball.
Zhang Jun holds the ball.
This scene made all the Lakers players on the opposite side frown and turn their heads.
Kobe quickly stared at Luo Yin in front of him even more closely.
He knew that Zhang Jun was very smart, and he was very good at judging the situation on the field. He was also worried that the opponent would play some tricks. He seemed to be playing alone, but in fact he was still helping Luo Yin get an easy chance to score.
But the result was the exact opposite of Kobe's expectations.
Zhang Jun singled Odom from the outside.
Odom was nervous.
call!
With the extremely fast starting speed of the first step, Zhang Jun passed Odom in an instant.
Bynum rushed over to help defend, Zhang Jun took off from the free throw line and dunked with his head flat.
boom! !
The stunning dunk directly ignited the passion of the fans.
In the next round, Zhang Jun went to the basket again. This time, Bynum learned his lesson and directly pulled Zhang Jun down in the air.
Although he lost a foul, he defended the ball anyway.
Swish!
Zhang Jun made two free throws.
Interpretation desk.
Kenny Smith said excitedly: "Zhang Jun of the Portland Trail Blazers started the main attack in the first quarter. This is the first time since the playoffs."

Barkley said: "Zhang Jun has always been helping his teammates and allowing them to get a more comfortable offense. In the first quarter, he will use his restraint to help Luo Yin score more easily. In the second quarter, he will lead a group of pitchers to fight. , In the third quarter, he will connect with Luo Yin and Aldridge, and only in the fourth quarter will he stand up and reap the game."
"He considered the scoring of his teammates too much, so that he didn't give full play to his own strength. I think the Trail Blazers have also been exploring the integration of Zhang Jun and the team."
"They used this style of play to achieve a good performance in the regular season, but in the playoffs, which is a stage that pays more attention to individual ability, when they meet the stronger Lakers, this style of play does not work. gone."
"Zhang Jun must stand up, don't think so much, use his ability to do everything possible to help the team win."
Zhang Jun, who went to the basket again on the court, fouled Bynum, and Bynum had two fouls in the first quarter and had to leave the game early to rest.
The big man lineup and inside frame protection that the Lakers are proud of were smashed to pieces when facing Zhang Jun.
Kobe also reacted at this time, took the initiative to switch defenses with Odom, and defended Zhang Jun's scoring arrow by himself, trying to hold down Zhang Jun's offense.

But at this time, Zhang Jun started to pass the ball again, and Luo Yin played a more comfortable offense when he was not facing Kobe.
At the end of the first quarter, the Trail Blazers overtook the score with 31:30.
"This is the first time the Trail Blazers have led in the first quarter of the series. I believe this team has seen the hope of winning."
Barkley said immediately: "But what about the second quarter."
"Zhang Jun has been fully fired in the first quarter, and his physical strength has also been consumed a lot, so who will lead the team in the second quarter?"
The second team of the Trail Blazers was afraid of many teams in this year's playoffs. The Rockets and Hornets were killed by this lineup one after another. Even the Lakers were almost killed by the Trail Blazers in the last game. under the second team.
It's just that the Trail Blazers' second lineup seems to be so powerful, but in fact it's all because of Zhang Jun. Once this lineup doesn't have Zhang Jun as a tough attacker, then all the shots are for display.
"Because the shooters in the Trail Blazers do not have the ability to attack independently, their shots are all off-ball catch-and-shoot shots, so they need an on-court engine."
"Before, Zhang Jun was there to attract defense and send ammunition for them, but tonight Zhang Jun has played for a long time in the first quarter of the game, and played very hard."
"So whoever leads the Trail Blazers next in this rotation is extremely critical."
Under Barkley's curious voice, Zhang Jun made his debut again.
This excited everyone.
Kobe, who re-appeared, also saw this scene.
He said in disbelief, "You have young capital."
The game continued in the second quarter.
Zhang Jun, who fought continuously, was not too affected by his physical strength. Facing Kobe's direct matchup this time, he used breakthroughs, mid-range, and dunks to score consecutively for the team.

During the period, the confrontation between Zhang Jun and Kobe became more and more intense.
In order to prevent Zhang Jun from receiving the ball, Kobe pushed, pushed, wrapped his arms, and stumbled. These top perimeter defensive moves given to Kobe by Gary Payton were used by Kobe.
In the middle distance of the waist and the top defense, Kobe supported his elbow and Zhang Jun hit Kobe's elbow with one arm. When Kobe went around the front, he counter-wrapped it. Push back as hard as you can.
The second quarter directly turned into an offensive and defensive battle between Kobe and Zhang Jun.
Barkley couldn't help but say something at this time.
"It's rare to see such a strong defense in the playoffs in recent years. The fight between Zhang Jun and Kobe has turned into a fierce battle."
In the second quarter, the offensive efficiency of the two teams was particularly low, each scoring 20 points, and the Trail Blazers still maintained a one-point lead at 51:50.
Zhang Jun, who was off the court, was so tired that he was out of breath. He was already exhausted from the long time on the court and the consumption of Kobe on both ends of the offense and defense.
"That Kobe guy isn't much better than me."
Second half of the game.
As soon as Zhang Jun came up, he launched the main attack vigorously. Facing Odom's defense, he continued to attack and beat the opponent. Gasol also got two fouls when defending Zhang Jun.
Zen master Phil Jackson was really nervous this time. He replaced Odom and took Luke Walton.
Although Luke Wharton is not as good as Odom in terms of offensive and personal ability, after all, he is comparable to Zhang Jun in size, and his speed is not slow. The most important thing is that Odom is in the process of defending Zhang Jun Having suffered enough, it's time for another person to deal with him, and Luke Walton just happens to be full of energy.
It's just that the result of replacing Luke Walton is that the Lakers changed someone and were beaten by Zhang Jun.
More importantly, Zhang Jun, who broke into the inside, has already cut the Lakers' defense line, and beat their inside twin towers to the point where each team is in danger of fouling. Everyone's attention is on Zhang Jun.
"Zhang Jun started passing the ball again!"
"Luo Yin's three-pointer is here! Aldridge's mid-range is here too!"
Zhang Jun's control over the game on the court is simply shocking. He doesn't look like a rookie player at all, and he is very good at switching between scoring and passing.
Nate McMillan off the field was so excited that he jumped up.
"I just said, this kid is born to pass the ball. It's a pity that he can't be the core of the ball!"
The emotions on Monty Williams' face were mixed. He did not forget to remind: "Although we still maintain the lead thanks to Zhang Jun's hard work, don't forget that his playing time has exceeded the standard."
"Besides, Kobe hasn't exerted his strength at this time!"
Nate McMillan also noticed this situation, and the emotion on his face became more serious.
He knew that the Lakers were accumulating energy for the final fourth quarter, UU Reading www.uukanshu. At that time, Kobe and Gasol will definitely lead the team to attack the Trail Blazers. If the Trail Blazers cannot withstand the pressure, they will still lose this game.
"But we have no other choice. As long as we let Zhang Jun off the field, even for a minute and a second, the team will fall into a passive situation."

At the end of the third quarter, the Trail Blazers had extended their lead to 5 points. Zhang Jun was so tired that he was about to collapse. As soon as he sat on the bench during the break, he quickly poured over a bottle of water.
Monty Williams and Nate McMillan did not forget to remind Zhang Jun: "We won't let you down for even a second in the fourth quarter. You have to distribute your physical strength on the court."
Nate McMillan said: "But we must also keep the team able to stabilize the offense. We don't have much defense against the Lakers. We can't defend the big Gasol inside, and we can't defend Kobe."
"So we can only fight to attack, and we can only rely on you."
Zhang Jun took a deep breath. He knew that the coach was already powerless. At this time, there was really no other better way than his offense could bring a glimmer of hope to the Trail Blazers.
"I'm going to help the team win this game, coach."
This was Zhang Jun's promise. The referee's whistle seemed to be much faster than before. Zhang Jun took a deep breath and walked back to the court.
The Lakers' Gasol and Kobe did sound the horn of counterattack at this time.
