NBA: Opening breaks record

Chapter 312

Hearing the whistle, Meng Hua raised his hands in place. He knew that he must be sentenced to a foul. This time he didn't even touch Paul, and he didn't know why Paul suddenly fell down.

Meng Hua raised his hands high, just outside the three-point line, and Paul fell to the free throw line.

Seeing his provocation, the home crowd directed all their anger at him for being behind, boos all over the place.

Some fans cursed loudly: "Meng Gou, go back to Los Angeles."

"Meng Dog!" Another fan responded.

So the audience resounded "Meng Dog".

Meng Hua remained motionless, looking up at the sky above the stadium, with his hands raised high.

It's not surrender, it's arrogance.

It turned out that after Paul changed direction continuously, he accelerated sharply again, his ankle could not support himself, and he fell down.

But so what, the referee will not change the sentence.

His teammates stepped forward, but Meng Hua still refused to move. He wanted to silently protest the referee.

One or two wrong judgments, he can understand, but this is no longer a wrong judgment, this is simply black whistle.

Vogel had to replace him and let him calm down. After all, he had fouled five times and he had to be protected.

"Sit." Meng Hua angrily exited.

The referee heard his yelling, knew he was wrong, and did not give him a technical foul.

The referee also thought that Paul had got up in three steps and gave two free throws.

Paul made two free throws and the score returned to 13 points.

Although Meng Hua is off the court, Westbrook is still very calm. He believes in his offensive firepower.

But the Suns adjusted their strategy. Bridges was still the main defense against Westbrook, but Paul went up to double-team when he saw the right time.

Westbrook has not enjoyed double-team treatment for a long time, which made him lose his rhythm all of a sudden, but fortunately he can still pass the ball.

After all, the Lakers still have two big players.

The ball was not passed well, but Westbrook can't be blamed. It's not bad to be double-teamed suddenly and not cut off.

James took two steps back to get the ball. Seeing that Booker let him go, he simply made a three-pointer.

The ball went slightly wide, and Ayton received another board.

The Suns went to the frontcourt, and Ayton stepped forward to play a pick-and-roll with Paul.

The Lakers switched defenses, which means they couldn't defend.

Paul hangs to Ayton, facing Bradley, Ayton relies on a fight.

Bradley flew out, trying to draw an offensive foul.

Without a whistle, Ayton relaxed his arms and dunked successfully.

Next, the Suns continued to double-team Westbrook.

Westbrook is mentally prepared and can always find open teammates.

Facing an empty basket, Rivers and Bradley shot very resolutely, and they were also very resolute in hitting the iron.

In three consecutive rounds, the Suns scored and prevented the Lakers from hitting iron.

The Suns chased for eight points in a row. It seems that the Lakers have upgraded, from three collapses in the lake to four collapses in the lake.

But Westbrook refused to agree, and faced double-teaming again, he stopped passing.

He played the ball consecutively before, but his teammates didn't score. He was so impatient that he didn't plan to pass the ball.

Westbrook dribbled the ball under the crotch, followed by a back dribble, passed Bridges and Paul, took a step forward, jumped with both feet, and was about to dunk with the ball.

Ayton and Crowder jumped up from both sides to block the shot.

Westbrook pulled the bar, avoided Ayton's block, and faced Claude's giant palm, he chose to lie flat.

He leaned back, turned and moved, raised his arms, held the ball in his palms, and kept a distance from Claude.

Both of them are falling. After all, they are jumping from different positions, so after falling, they are getting farther and farther away.

Claude's palm was finally out of sight, and Westbrook lifted the ball up, hit the board, and then fell heavily on the floor.

In the air, because of his extreme dodge, he was already lying flat.

James and Nongmei gathered around Westbrook, each with a hand to pull him up.Westbrook played too hard on this ball and was easily injured. Fortunately, he got up quickly and indicated that he was fine.

Encouraged by Westbrook, the morale of the Lakers improved a lot, and then finally let the Suns taste the taste of iron.

The point difference has been maintained at seven points. For the Lakers, this is far from a safe zone, but the sun is not feeling well, and he is getting more and more anxious.

The Suns made the final gamble, Monty removed Ayton, replaced Johnson, and sacrificed the five minors.

The Lakers replaced Meng Hua, and Vogel chose to die ++ the main force.

Even if Meng Hua is called a foul again, as long as he can persist for a few more minutes, the time is running out, and he is not afraid of the sun chasing points.

Meng Hua didn't defend Paul, and the burden was on Rivers.

Paul is a thief, knowing that Meng Hua is afraid of fouling, he still hangs it to Claude.

At this time, the sun is the fifth junior, and the other four have three-point shooting range. No one inside can help Meng Hua defend.

But to defend against Claude, does Meng Hua need to help defend?

Claude made a standard back test, then put down the ball and pushed back with all his strength.

Snapped!
The intense muscle collision made the air seem to explode.

Meng Hua didn't retreat, and forced Claude to rely on him.

Claude was more surprised than him. Although the back hit didn't take advantage of it before, he didn't actually hit it hard.

At this moment, he had gone all out, but he still failed to push Meng Hua.

Then come again, he took a breath and continued to push in.

Even when he went 20 centimeters, he felt that something was wrong. He didn't meet Meng Hua's defense, it was all air.

Oops, he suddenly felt something was wrong and realized that the opponent was withdrawing his chair to defend.

Fortunately, he reacted quickly. He took two consecutive steps, and then threw the ball up casually. It could barely be regarded as a three-step layup, not counting walking.

With such random three steps, naturally he couldn't score a goal, so he could only give a rebound to Meng Hua under the basket.

The Suns are already in the fifth grade, so the speed is not at a disadvantage, and Meng Hua is not in a hurry. He waits until there is no one behind Westbrook before slowly passing the ball to him. Paul, who put the cat behind Westbrook and wanted to steal the ball unexpectedly, gritted his teeth with hatred.

Westbrook moved to the frontcourt. This time the Lakers have three three-pointers from Rivers, Meng Hua and James. The Suns dare not attack again.

Westbrook broke through Bridges, and suddenly turned around and passed to Rivers.

Rivers hit three-pointers steadily, and somehow, with Meng Hua on the court, he was very accurate on three-pointers.

Is it because of competing with him, or does it feel like he's the man behind the scenes?
The point difference was once again drawn to [-] points, and time was running out. Paul still insisted on playing Meng Hua and called Claude to play a pick-and-roll.

The Lakers switched defenses, and Meng Hua defended Paul.

Paul knew that Claude would definitely withstand Rivers under the basket, so he looked at Booker, which was his usual fake action.

Just when he threw the ball to Claude, Meng Hua suddenly flew up on the ground and intercepted the pass with one hand.

For this ball, Meng Hua even used reasoning.

A master of ball handling like Paul, if he wants to pass the ball to a teammate outside the three-point line, why does he need to watch for so long?

Now he is aiming for so long, aiming recklessly, for fear that Meng Hua will not know the aim, there is only one possibility, he actually wants to pass to the basket.

So when Paul moved his hand, Meng Hua bounced off the ground and caught the ball directly in the air.

Meng Hua quickly passed Westbrook, the pass was not good, Westbrook caught it a bit awkwardly, he was in good shape today, he didn't want to stop, twisting his body like dribbling straight into the basket.

He underestimated Bridges too much and the ball was cut off again.

Seeing Bridges steal the ball, the Lakers rushed to the backcourt.

Bridges also wanted to steal a chicken and passed it to Paul. He made a mistake in his busy schedule and his strength was useless. The ball was intercepted by Meng Hua again.

Meng Hua learned from his opponent to steal the chicken and passed the high ball to Westbrook.

This time, the two sides switched offense and defense consecutively, and they were exhausted. In the end, Westbrook accepted two points with a smile.
