The Celtics attacked first, Cassel patted the basketball and observed the position of his teammates.

He now has no ability to attack independently and can only pick up misses and pass the ball.

When Ray Allen was running without the ball, Kobe followed closely.

Ray Allen played too well in the first quarter, and Jackson asked to focus on defense.

As a direct opponent, Kobe has unshirkable responsibility.

Under Kobe's mad dog-like entanglement, Ray Allen couldn't find a chance to catch the ball.

Cassell could only pass the ball to Pierce. Pierce held up the basketball and took a step forward. First he made a fake move, and then another fake move. Unfortunately, Zhang Zhiyuan was not fooled.

Pierce had no choice but to make a pull-up jumper.

The ball didn't go in.

During the transition from offense to defense, Fisher dribbled the ball across half court and made a triangle attack gesture.

The Lakers rarely use the triangle offense anymore, but if they do it from time to time, they can achieve good results.

Seeing Fisher's signal, everyone started running.

After a run, Kobe reached the weak side. There were fewer defenders on his side, and Cassel was blocking him.

Needless to say, Fisher passed the ball and then stood in front of Ray Allen to prevent him from passing.

Kobe held the ball and challenged Cassell, making a classic fadeaway jumper and hitting the ball.

28 to 29.

The Celtics counterattacked, James Posey stood in the bottom corner, and Odom failed to follow up in time.

Then Posey made a three-pointer.

Posey's three-point shot is not particularly good, but he can really score at critical moments.

31 to 29.

The Celtics fans in front of the TV cheered directly. This kind of go-ahead goal was so refreshing.

When the Lakers attacked, Zhang Zhiyuan used the screen to break through, went to the basket and jumped to try to dunk. Perkins reached out and tried to knock the ball out of Zhang Zhiyuan's hands.

Zhang Zhiyuan withdrew his hand and Perkins caught Zhang Zhiyuan's face. Zhang Zhiyuan threw the ball to the basket based on his feeling.

The ball is scored, the whistle blows, 21.

However, Zhang Zhiyuan was not too happy. After all, he always felt a bit disadvantaged after being hit on the face like this.

Other players would really like to suffer this kind of loss, but it is a pity that there is no such opportunity.

Zhang Zhiyuan made an extra free throw, 31 to 32.

The Celtics attacked and Ray Allen missed a jump shot.

Then the two teams traded blows, and then Rondo and Garnett were replaced.

Garnett hit a mid-range shot as soon as he came on the court, but the Lakers were not to be outdone. Odom hit a long two-pointer.

The Celtics attacked and Garnett continued to take shots.

The ball missed, Perkins grabbed the offensive rebound, and then passed the ball out. Rondo received the ball and broke through to the basket for a layup.

"The Lakers are at a disadvantage in terms of rebounding."

Zhang Lili commented.

"There's nothing we can do about it. There can't be a perfect team."

Sun Zhengping said.

The Lakers' offense also showed their advantages.

Zhang Zhiyuan received the ball from the outside and broke through. Kobe immediately ran to the three-point line to make room for Zhang Zhiyuan.

Kobe could give in, but the Celtics players couldn't. They gathered under the basket and tried to intercept Zhang Zhiyuan.

Zhang Zhiyuan rushed to the outside and threw the ball to the outside. Kobe, who was left open, made a three-pointer.

The ball goes in.

In the next round, the Lakers repeated their old tricks, but the Celtics did not learn their lesson. They seemed to believe that Kobe could only attack at the basket.

But they forgot that before Zhang Zhiyuan came to the Lakers, Kobe shot a lot of three-pointers, averaging five or six times per game, and his shooting percentage was not very low.

After Zhang Zhiyuan came to the Lakers, he took away the outside scenes, and Kobe shot fewer three-pointers.

However, because he has been practicing hard, his three-point shooting percentage has improved significantly this season, reaching 39%.

The ball goes in.

Kobe scored six points in a row and made the Celtics pay the price.

After the ball was scored, Kobe retreated on defense with a fierce look on his face, and Kobe shouted MVP at the scene.

In their opinion, the mvp has been snatched away by Zhang Zhiyuan, so the fmvp should belong to Kobe.

Just now, Kobe Bryant scored six points in a row and played very excitingly. Comey could no longer control his excitement and shouted MVP early.

Zhang Lili said: "Zhang Zhiyuan's two assists were so beautiful. He single-handedly ripped apart the Celtics' defense and then sent a wonderful pass."

"Zhang Zhiyuan's assists are completely different from Fisher's. Fisher waits for his teammates to get opportunities, then passes the ball and gets assists. Zhang Zhiyuan's assists create opportunities for his teammates, then passes the ball and gets assists."

Sun Zhengping added.

In short, the core meaning is just one. Zhang Zhiyuan played well, and it was Zhang Zhiyuan's credit that Kobe scored points.

Although there are suspicions of exaggeration, overall, there is nothing wrong with it.

On the court, after the Lakers had a small climax, Rivers quickly called a timeout and then gave the players a bowl of 'Rivers Brand' chicken soup.

Then Rondo, Garnett and others returned to the court screaming.

Not to mention, they made two consecutive shots and defended the Lakers for one round.

At first glance, Rivers' timeout seems quite useful.

Relying on this timeout, the Celtics stabilized the situation, but overall the Lakers had the advantage.

The players from both sides continued to compete against each other, and the coach was constantly changing players and arranging tactics. It was very intense.

At the end of the second quarter, 52 to 56, the Lakers led by four points and entered the halftime break.

"I have to say that the Celtics played very well today. But unfortunately, the Lakers played even better."

Buckley said nonsense.

"Considering the away disadvantage, it is acceptable for the Celtics to lose by four points. If they can maintain this performance from now on, they really have a chance to win this series."

Smith said.

...

In the second half, both teams came back with full blood.

The Lakers attacked first, Zhang Zhiyuan reached out for the ball and controlled the ball to advance.

After halftime, he threw a three-pointer.

In the first half, Zhang Zhiyuan only scored 13 points and 4 assists, which was slightly less. Next, he will strive to get more points and other statistics.

In this finals, Zhang Zhiyuan is very confident that he can beat Kobe Bryant based on statistics, but considering the judges' emotional bias and other factors, he cannot guarantee that the judges will definitely choose him.

"The Point Guard Is Here"

Just like Curry in the future, he had almost 10 points more than Ying Guodala, but FMVP still gave Ying Guodala the reason because Ying Guodala defended very well and guarded James to death.

The terrible thing is that in most people's minds, Kobe's defense is better than Zhang Zhiyuan's.

Moreover, Kobe signed with Nike, and Zhang Zhiyuan signed with a Chinese brand.

Moreover, Kobe has struggled for 12 years, and his spirit of never giving up his desire for an FMVP can easily move some people. Maybe some judges think that Zhang Zhiyuan will have more opportunities in the future, so he can give it to Kobe now.

In short, unless Zhang Zhiyuan's statistics are much better than Kobe's, his FMVP is unstable and may be stolen by Kobe.

Therefore, Zhang Zhiyuan should try his best to produce better statistics than Kobe.

With this in mind, Zhang Zhiyuan took a risk and threw a three-pointer, but the ball went in.

Zhang Zhiyuan shrugged helplessly at Pierce, saying that he didn't do it on purpose.

The Celtics counterattacked, and Garnett was a little anxious. He took the initiative to ask for the ball under the basket, and then made a big jump shot.

Although this kind of shot is not very enjoyable to watch, the hit rate is still good.

The ball goes in.

Garnett roared again, and those who didn't know thought he had hit the buzzer-beating shot.

When the Lakers attacked, Zhang Zhiyuan greeted Odom, then played a pick-and-roll, then broke through to the basket and scored with a throw.

It was also 2 points, and Zhang Zhiyuan retreated silently, which was in sharp contrast to Garnett's two points.
