Chapter 527: Vigorous

The Lakers won a victory, and the entire Lakers team was very excited after the game.
After the game, Valen said with a serious face: "The only change we made in today's game is that we played very hard and competed for 48 minutes."
"It's just two words, physical confrontation and aggressiveness. We have to play like this."
"For us, the third game is a life-and-death game. We can't play against our opponents with a 0 to 3 disadvantage." James said loudly.
Kobe also said: "This is the spirit of the Lakers, we will not give up, will not be afraid."
Qi Li sighed after the game: "We are not ready for the away game. This is very obvious. They beat us hard at the beginning."
Curry said: "We paid some price, but it will make us more sober."
The Lakers' win made the Finals more attention. The Knicks players are under a bit of pressure, but Qi Li still lives and works normally. An accident may occur once, and it is impossible to appear continuously. The Knicks are undoubtedly more powerful.
The fourth time the two sides met was two days later, and the Staples Center fans were more energetic.
The Lakers still intend to take the lead when they come up, but this time Curry, Klay, and Leonard all felt the same. Both sides played against each other and the game was wonderful.
During the rotation, the Lakers also performed well, and they really lived back home.
In the first half, the two sides had a big battle, and they all blossomed, and the score has not been opened.
"It's really exciting. This is the real Finals. Thank you Lakers for finally waking up."
"The Knicks have no record of losing streak in the playoffs. The first half can't explain anything. Let's watch the second half."
"Don't deceive yourself, it's obviously that the Eastern Wizards are not working and support the Lakers championship."
"Hehe, the Knicks lead the series. And even if the home and away games are different, the Knicks also have home court advantage. You are out of breath."
During the intermission, Qi Li also analyzed the Lakers' tactics. They may have really boosted their confidence through a victory. After all, there are many players in their lineup that can score, but the team consciousness is not that good.
Now the passing of James and Kobe has revitalized the team and greatly improved the combat effectiveness of the role players.
But their problems still exist. Whether it is a newcomer like Allen, Bazemore, Landry, a veteran like Boozer, or a sixth man like Lu Wei, they are all people who like singles. Not playing is also not enough possession. Now playing well but there are weak links.
Qi Li asked the team to continue to remain oppressive. As long as the tactics they developed are done well, the Lakers have a high probability of problems. As long as there are problems, James and Kobe will play more singles, and Qi Li will return to the past.
Qi Li made plans for the final moment of the battle between the two sides, but the situation was obviously better than expected.
In the third quarter, the Lakers had some problems, mainly because the role players could not keep up.
James and Kobe have the ball. At most, Luwei has some ball rights. Others have to catch the ball. The shooting rate actually fluctuates greatly. The body is cold during the intermission and the intensity of the third quarter rises again. The problem is coming.
On the Knicks side, although Leonard was restricted a little, Curry and Clay fought more and more bravely.
The most killer or three-pointer, the two just seized a lot of three-pointers opportunities, a few three-pointers down, the hearts of the Lakers team are much colder.
Valen has no choice but to let James play more, even Kobe has added a lot of playing time.
But Drummond didn't play that long, because the Lakers sometimes play a small lineup and need an inside line that can be pulled out.
It's just that they don't have such a useful inside line as Jodzic, and the team's cooperation is not as good as the Knicks.
In the Knicks, letting whoever holds the ball can play the effect, but the Lakers can't. The key moment can only be James and Kobe.
In the last quarter, James and Kobe, the old comrades, also slammed.
It's just that the Lakers still failed to limit the Knicks' offense. Curry continued to freak out. Clay didn't have so many opportunities, but Leonard took advantage of James' physical decline.
The game gap between the two sides began to widen, and the game time became less and less.
In the end, the Knicks' advantage was already obvious, and the Lakers also tried foul tactics from the last minute.
It's just that the Knicks dealt with it calmly, they can only commit to players who make free throws.
Curry and Clay both hit the free throw line and the Lakers could only face failure again.
Series 3:1, the Knicks also won the match point away.
After the game, Wallen was also a little helpless. He said: "We played very hard today and played the necessary competitiveness, but some defenses did not do well, and some shots were not made."
Then he also slapped his words, saying, "If the players don't think we can win, don't get on the plane."
Qi Li also expressed his respect for his opponents. He said: "I have told my players that the fifth game will be the hardest in this series-the final game of each series is the hardest. Now The finals are not over yet."
Regarding the outstanding performance of the players, Qi Li felt that there was no difference in the details. He said: "It is not a question of shooting opportunities. They are so good, you can't limit them forever."
The game is going back to New York, Qi Li really doesn't want to come to Los Angeles again, it is not for fun.
They must do better, whether it is defensive or offensive, if necessary, they will take care of the skills of the players, he and the national team must be busy, and do not want to delay the series too long.
Thinking about it now, it's still exciting to play the cup, but it's a little bit accidental. The NBA playoffs system ensures that the Knicks will not roll over.
The opening of the fifth game ~EbookFREE.me~ is the third day the Knicks returned to New York.
The Lakers were aggressive, James actually took a three-pointer when he came up, and the Knicks felt the pressure.
However, Curry, Klay and Leonard did not counsel, the Knicks offense is still very good.
It seems that since the third game, the touch of both sides has been completely improved, and they are always showing strong performance.
And the Lakers are not just James performing well, Kobe and Lu Wei also feel good, Drummond is also very strong in rebounding, the Knicks have no advantage inside.
Why Qi Li will use a new lineup in the finals is due to the existence of Drummond, Gobert's body is still a little weaker, and Jodzic's coming up to pull the effect will be better.
The two sides were tit-for-tat again in the first half, but in the end the Knicks took the lead, because Klein opened Wushuang, as the third point of the team, sometimes it is easy to break out.
Qi Li didn't use the skills, but the players looked like they had already activated their skills, very vigorous.
