January's game came to an end with the Lakers winning the green shirt.
The Lakers ended their 35 consecutive wins and lost three games this month, but it didn't hurt. The Lakers still dominated the League 51-3.
When the second spurs in the West are still working hard for 40 wins, the Lakers have expanded their advantage to an incredible extent. Meanwhile, the rising star bulls in the East this season have also been eclipsed. They have only lost 10 games in 50 games so far. The 40-10 record is still the first in the East, and the heat's 32 win seconds are gone. This is also 9 Eight seasons after Jordan retired, the Bulls the fastest to achieve 40 wins of the season, Fengcheng Rose Rose Rose, can be said to officially bloom.
But with the Lakers, the 11 game gap almost declared the league's first place. Unless the Lakers lost their ambition in the second half of the season, he couldn't catch up with Ross.
Chicago media and Ross himself have to smile bitterly, they seem to understand the previous season Hornets, Cavaliers and other teams' mood.
When you work hard to play a historical level performance, are complacent, look up, the Lakers are ahead, you can not even smell the exhaust gas waiting for you, sometimes also back to greet you kindly, let you refuel
This kind of feeling, really life is not like death.
Therefore, Chicago media, including Ross himself, repeatedly stressed that although they are how to do this season, the best one is still the Lakers, not one of them.
Of course, it doesn't mean that you take it in your heart. Many Chicago media have been wondering whether the Lakers will suddenly collapse. After all, there is still a gap between January's performance and the previous few months. Let alone losing a few games, many games are not so dominant.
The first game in February deepened their conjecture.
On February 2, the Lakers played their first game of February at home to a veteran team, the Rockets, who were almost far away from the playoffs.
The Rockets have won 14 games in the first 20 games this season, but they have been beaten back to their original form after six consecutive losses. At present, they are 22-29 after 51 games, ranking 11th in the West. There are seven games gap from the eighth playoff, which is a difficult number to catch up with.
Losing Tracy McGrady and dismantling Yao and McGrady. The Rockets, whose core is Yao who is recovering from injury, lack the ability of two-point kick. As long as they defend Yao, they win two-thirds.
The rest of the players, no matter Scola or Battier, are qualified role players, unable to share the offensive pressure. Martin, as always, plays three games with five breaks, and his state is unsustainable. Brooks and badinger alone can not compete with the strong teams in the league.
But this team has created a lot of trouble for the Lakers.
At the beginning, Yao didn't play well in the interior. The Lakers were very tight, and the two towers were almost inseparable. Sometimes, three people would encircle Yao, which made Yao get only 2 points in the first quarter.
However, in the second quarter, the Rockets changed their tactics, and the attacks were all initiated by the outside line. After Brooks succeeded in eating Fisher several times, the Rockets gradually found the sense of attack. In the second half of the second quarter, they played a wave of 12-4 to reverse the score.
The turning point happened in the second half of the third quarter. The Lakers relied on Kobe to get 9 points in a row to surpass the score, and then kept it at 3 points. At the critical moment, Brooks wanted to repeat his old skills and strengthen the old fish.
However, Jifeng had been prepared to help defend an air grab cap, and directly caught Brooks' layup in his hand!
Amazing!
Brooks himself is stupid, he just deliberately raised the arc, but did not expect to be still caught by Ji Feng!
The cap grabbing directly became the turning point of the game. The Lakers won with momentum, scored 8 points in a row at the last moment, took an 11 point advantage into the fourth quarter, and kept the score to the end.
112-101, the Lakers beat the Rockets 11 points to win four games in a row.
Winning is winning, but it's not easy to win. The Rockets' tactics are appropriate, and tonight's outside shooting rate is extremely high. Brooks has a season high 35 points, and Martin has 20 points. Although Yao has only 14 points, the team's super high shooting rate makes the Lakers very uncomfortable.
That is the Laker. Ji Feng scored 30 points, 11 assists, 11 rebounds and 3 doubles, Kobe Bryant scored 30 points, 6 rebounds and 4 assists, and JK scored 60 points to finally win. It is estimated that the change of team has been cool.
But this still gives a lot of media confidence, it seems that the Lakers will inevitably enter the volatility.
On the 4th, two days later, Popovich led the Spurs to Los Angeles. This was the second time that the two teams met each other in the season. The first match between the two teams was that the Lakers took the Spurs lightly. In this encounter, the main force of the Spurs showed up, and they were running for revenge.
"The direct confrontation between the first in the West and the second in the west, this game is related to the ownership of the Western championship this season. If the Spurs can beat the Lakers once in the regular season, it will be of great significance to their entire playoff trip." Before the game analysis, Zhang said.
The Spurs also think so, so they didn't keep a hand at the beginning. GDP starts, Bonner matches hill, which is the best starting lineup of the Spurs.And tactically, Popovich changed the way of attack in the last game, but returned to the old line of dogged defense.
The two teams played eight irons from four minutes to four minutes, creating the strongest start of the season for the Lakers.
And the whole game was dragged to the Spurs' defensive rhythm. The half-time sad 30-32, three quarters 66-63. Although the Spurs lead has not been much, but considering the average 32.5% shooting rate of the two teams tonight, the difference is hard to catch up with.
Sure enough, in order to smooth out the 3-point gap, the Lakers used a full 11.5 minutes, in the last 40 seconds, Ji Feng used a free throw to tie the score!
86-86, both sides stand on the same starting line!
In the last 30 seconds, spurs pause, old Duncan old man chat, in the Spurs side line ball tactical failure, Bonner Zhou Qi attached, Parker nearly butter hand, Duncan a fish jump out of life and death, save the ball, in his own fall to the ground, put the ball into manu's hands, and help manu under the basket score key 2 points, and only to the lake Man left 4.6 seconds to attack.
The Spurs are going to win, but the Lakers have season peak!
Three points of death!
After the Laker's side line shot, Ji Feng didn't go to the three-point line at all. Instead, he made a direct shot against time.
A very bold decision, staples did not know how many people's hearts will jump out!
However, the results are exciting!
Ji Feng beat the Spurs one meter away from the three-point line, ending his opponent's hope of winning. He won the first time this season and hit the 19th time in the regular season.
The Lakers took the game by 89-88, one point advantage, and won five consecutive wins!
