On the Nets side, Livingston, Joe Johnson, Will Button, Lavoie Allen and Jokic.
Randall responded to the high position of the frame. The Nets performed well at the end of the first quarter. With the same set of people, the defense was also very good at the moment.
When time was running out, Randall held the ball directly to Aaron. The former had a thick body and successfully squeezed Aaron to the basket.
Jokic raised his hand to help defend, Randall shot sideways and shot, but Jokic turned around at the same time, without giving a mobile phone meeting, Randall hesitated to hit the ball directly out of bounds.
A mistake by the Lakers!
There was cheering at the scene.
Tang Tian nodded with satisfaction.
Jokic's progress was faster than he expected, especially on the defensive end, and he began to understand how to use his body.
The Nets attacked the frontcourt, and Jokic continued to cope with the three-pointer and gave it to Button, who did not make a three-pointer.
Raven went straight to play the hero ball after holding the ball in the frontcourt, but Joe Johnson was not Bogdan, and he was very experienced in grabbing positions. Raven rushed to the basket and finally barely made a shot. The rebound was called Kiki took it.
Jokic had no chance in the frontcourt and did not make a three-pointer.
As soon as the second quarter came up, the two sides staged an iron fight, and no one could score.
Both Scott and Tang Tian got up from the bench and stood on the sidelines.
Everyone wants to be the first to break the deadlock.
Lavin's mid-range shot popped in, and anxious Scott shouted from the sidelines.
Tang Tian shouted at Livingston, then reached out and made a low singles gesture at No. 2.

Livingston came to the frontcourt and didn't let Jokic respond anymore, but directly gestured to open the space, and then let Joe Johnson down, and gave the ball in.
Johnson received the ball and leaned against Raven.
Glancing at him without a defense behind him, he went straight to the top.
Lavin's athleticism is excellent, but his confrontation in the rookie season was not good. He was repeatedly arched by Johnson's big and was directly pushed to the penalty area.

"boom!"
The ball rubbed the backboard and fell into the net bag.

The Nets delivered the ball in the backcourt. After Livingston advanced to the frontcourt, he also passed the ball to Johnson in the low singles.
At this time, the Lakers changed their defense and switched to Nick Young.
Yang was much stronger than Lavin. Johnson was lower in gravity. He still stiffened into it, but just when Yang Yan was full of energy, he suddenly turned to the bottom line and then shot straight back. .
Yang Fali rushed straight away, and Black flew over to make up the defense after seeing it, but the interference was limited.
Johnson shot back.
"boom!"
At this moment, the players on the court did not feel anything. Johnson's back slumped on the basket and popped up.
However, because Black saved the defense, Jokic was a giant under the rim, and the ball was added to the rim.
Yang missed a three-pointer before receiving the ball, and Jokic picked another rebound.

The Lakers attacked the frontcourt, and Kobe attacked on his back.
Consecutive hard chisels did not move, and then turned and shots were also predicted by Johnson. The shots under the interference eventually jumped out of the basket.

Tang Tian rejoiced from the sidelines, but not too surprised.
Johnson ’s strength still exists. This is beyond doubt. It is not surprising to adjust his mentality to play such a performance, and because the rotation out of the previous rotation ~ EbookFREE.me ~ The Lakers did not estimate this point when they arranged before the game. In a sense, this can be considered a surprise.
Kobe and Yao Ming can't play too long, and the two teams' strengths on paper are actually not much different.
