The 40 point victory in the first game let the world see the gap between the Lakers and the Hornets, and made many comments before the Hornets a laughing stock.
And Buckley said, "this is an all-round gap, not something that Paul can solve."
Smith is more blunt: "if the Hornets don't adjust this summer, maybe it's time for Paul to leave."
Although the words of TNT's two anchors are harsh in the ears of hornets fans, this is the reality. It is difficult for a small club without achievements to retain such a star as Paul. Now it is no longer the same as before. One person, one city is still a minority. Moreover, since James left Miami, it will be normal for the stars who are playing in the current year to keep together, and Anthony will be in the West That's why the top five Nuggets don't want to play against Steve in New York.
Because even if you want to stay in a team all the time, there will be a lot of external circumstances forcing you to leave, unless you can tolerate being beaten by other competitors all the time, and you can tolerate people taking away one championship trophy after another in front of you.
The loss of this game also makes the series lose suspense in the eyes of most people. After all, Paul is the only one who can stably output the Hornets. The others are qualified jigsaw puzzles at most, and there is not even a second leader who can take the game.
Since ancient times, such a team has never had a successful precedent. After all, basketball is a sport of five people, and there is no real single core championship. It is better that Chamberlain will be hanged by the five green army giants, Jordan will also fall under the iron and blood defense of the pistons. O'Neill has Kobe, and the Spurs have GDP. At least until now, single core championship is still a dream in the minds of fans Yes.
Even after the game, some extreme fans have already posted on the tiger flop: "the Lakers don't sweep through the promotion, they directly soak in the sulfuric acid Diao ~!"
although many fans ridicule the fan's special interests to seek satisfaction here, most of them think so.
The fans' ideas were soon verified three days later.
On April 21, game 2 of the first round of the playoffs continued at Staples.
Before the game, the Hornets had a very dignified atmosphere. It is said that after the first defeat, Paul was furious in the dressing room, and by the way he practiced until 2:00 in the morning. After that, the Hornets also unified their thoughts, and this game will be regarded as the last one.
However, if the gap between strength is too large, it is really not enough momentum to make up for it.
At the beginning of the game, the Hornets did play well for a few minutes. Starting with okafu's win over Bynum, the Hornets played an 8-0 climax in the beginning.
"Chris, oh, Chris, fast break, he's fast breaking again, how about this time?"
"In! Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh ~! Paul is the real queen bee, even 5 points, Chris ~! Paul ~! "
You can also see through the screen what the excitement of the New Orleans commentary has become, thanks to not cutting the camera, or else it might frighten a lot of girls.
But with a pause from Zen master, the situation changed.
To tell you the truth, the Lakers are a bit careless. They haven't separated from the last big win. In short, they underestimated the enemy.
This allowed the Lakers to send three consecutive mistakes in the beginning, and the Hornets also fought to seize the opportunity.
But after the pause, the Lakers returned to normal, the first attack Kobe with a picturesque finish Ariza, don't look at Ariza high, but he just can't prevent Kobe's back.
Then Paul suddenly points, Ji Feng unexpectedly chooses to pack Landry, Landry butter hand is cut off by Ji Feng directly.
Ji Feng dribbled to Kobe directly after half-time. Kobe's quick attack not only scored, but also made Ariza a foul.
2 + 1, the score becomes 5-8, and the game returns to normal rhythm. After
, the two sides started a period of pull. Paul still carried the banner of wasp attack. His teammates didn't give a game to Landry. The inside line created many scoring opportunities through several unawesome fighting, and Berry Nellie on the outside line finally opened.
However, the score is still not open, the Lakers step-by-step, Jifeng organization in order, in addition to Kobe, Gasol and Bynum have scored in the interior line, Gasol used his height and arm length to play Landry three times in a row, which makes people clearly realize how important talent is for basketball players.
At the end of the first quarter, the Hornets led 30-29 by 1 point.
It's also the last time the Hornets are ahead.
At the beginning of the second quarter, Ji Feng and Artest jointly played a wave of 12-2. Ji Feng had 4 assists. Artest scored 4 goals in a row. After scoring the last goal, Artest felt incredible. Looking at his hands for a long time, he did not speak. This is also his long lost performance of scoring.
This wave directly defeated the Hornets, and the Hornets collapsed, and the Lakers took the opportunity to lead by 14 points 57-43 at half-time.
The second half of the situation is still maintained in the rhythm of the second quarter, the field played quietly, the only bright spot may be Ji Feng's continuous assists performance.
Ji Feng got 16 assists in the third quarter, setting a record of only three assists in the playoffs. In the last quarter, Ji Feng only played 4.5 points and got 4 points and 3 assists. As the difference has been widened to 25 points, Jifeng did not continue to play.The final season peak data stay on 25 points, 19 assists and 8 rebounds. The Lakers also beat the Hornets 119-100 to get a 2-0 advantage.
Paul back-to-back with 30 points, 7 assists and 3 steals, but still no eggs.
After the game, people felt sorry that Ji Feng didn't get 20 points and 20 assists from back to back, but Ji Feng made up for it two days later.
On the 23rd, the Lakers moved to New Orleans, so close away from home is not good news for the Lakers playing away.
But no one thought that the impact on wasps was even greater.
The state of the Lakers was not so good. In addition to Ji Feng's several mid-range points in the beginning, he played iron four times in a row. But when he looked at the next door, Paul, bellinelli and Ariza, who were 6-for-0, the Laker fans thought it was acceptable!
As a result, the two teams staged a big iron fight, which was like the "unprecedented" duel between the Nuggets and the Hornets. However, the Lakers are not nuggets and will not accompany them to sink the whole game.
After a low score of 35-40 in the half-time, the Lakers began to recover in the second half. Starting from Farmar's three-point shot from Ji Feng, the Lakers made five consecutive three-point shots to open the score in one fell swoop, and all the assists came from Ji Feng.
"Well, the Hornets can't defend like this. Ji Feng doesn't shoot at all. In the first two games, he has more than 20 points per game, but he has nearly 20 assists. Isn't it a chance for Jifeng to pass the ball like this?" Zhang said.
If the Hornets coach knew that he would definitely Pooh him with a mouthful of salt soda, a person who scored 83 points in three energy saving, would you dare not attack him?!
I dare not!
But the price of the attack is that Ji Feng can't stop the assists.
18 points, 21 assists and 10 rebounds, Ji Feng once again got more than 20 assists in three doubles, becoming the first player to complete in history!
