The Godfather of Basketball

After the first quarter, the score between the two sides was tied at 22, and the Nets came off the bench to recover the point difference.

Back in the second quarter, both sides are full bench lineups.

The Lakers have Ronnie Price, LaVine, Nick Young, Randle and Blake.

For the Nets, Livingston, Joe Johnson, Will Barton, Lavoy Allen and Jokic.

With Randall's high support to the frame, the Nets performed well at the end of the first quarter. With the same group of people, they also did a good job defending at this time.

The time was running out and there was no chance, Randall directly held the ball and charged Allen. The former had a thick body and successfully squeezed Allen to the basket.

Jokic raised his hand to help defend, and Randall hit the rebound sideways to shoot, but Jokic turned around at the same time and did not give a mobile phone opportunity. Randall hesitated and dropped the ball directly out of bounds.

A mistake by the Lakers!

There was a burst of cheers.

Tang Tian looked at it and nodded in satisfaction.

Jokic's progress was faster than he expected, especially on the defensive end, and he began to know how to use his body.

The Nets attacked the frontcourt, Jokic continued to support from outside the three-point line, and scored the ball to Button who came out, but the latter missed a three-pointer.

LaVine stood up and played a hero ball after holding the ball in the frontcourt, but Joe Johnson is not Bogdan, and he is very experienced in judging positions. Keech accepted.

Jokic had no chance to support the frontcourt, and he didn't make a three-pointer.

As soon as the second quarter came up, the two sides staged an iron fight, and neither of them could score.

Both Scott and Tang Tian got up from the bench and stood on the sidelines.

Everyone wants to be the first to break the deadlock.

LaVine's mid-range went in and out, and Scott yelled anxiously from the sidelines.

Tang Tian yelled at Livingston, and then stretched out his hand to make a low singles gesture for the 2nd position.

The tactics of the two teams are not a big problem, and there are many opportunities. The lack of shots shows that both sides are not online. At this time, the simplified scoring method,

Livingston went to the frontcourt and didn't let Jokic play support, but directly signaled to open the space, and then let Joe Johnson drop low and give the ball in.

Johnson catches the ball with his back to LaVine.

Glancing at the lack of assistance behind him, he pushed straight in.

LaVine's athletic ability is excellent, but he didn't fight well in his rookie season. He was pushed a few times by Johnson's big butt and was directly pushed into the penalty area.

After exerting more force and turning to the bottom line, LaVine couldn't exert force, and Johnson directly hit the board at close range.

"boom!"

The ball scraped the backboard and fell into the net pocket.

The Nets took the lead in breaking the scoring drought!

There was a burst of cheers at the scene.

It's been too long since they saw this scene!

Singles Joe!

Joe Johnson's one-handed low post is his signature technical move!

The Lakers attacked the frontcourt, LaVine was a little anxious, and made a direct three-pointer with an outside cross step.

This ball has the shadow of Kobe, but unfortunately the timing of the shot is not very good, facing Joe Johnson's shot, he made a direct shot.

The Nets sent the ball from the backcourt, and after Livingston advanced to the frontcourt, he also handed the ball to Johnson for a low single.

The Lakers made a defensive change at this time and switched to Nick Young to come over.

Yang is much stronger than LaVine, and Johnson's center of gravity is lower, and he pushed in abruptly, but just when Yang put up all his strength, he suddenly turned sharply towards the bottom line, and then directly leaned back and shot .

Yang Fali rushed directly to the air, and after seeing it, Black flew over to defend, but the interference was limited.

Johnson throws back.

"boom!"

At this moment, the players on the field really didn't feel it. Johnson's back hit the basket and popped out.

But because Black threw out to help defend, Jokic was a pillar of the sky under the basket, and he put the ball into the basket with a light touch.

Yang missed a three-pointer when he came out of the frontcourt to catch the ball, and Jokic picked another rebound.

Johnson continued to play back in the low post. This time, LaVine on the weak side came directly to double-team. Johnson had quick hands and eyes, and put the ball in the middle. Button caught the ball and scored a layup.

The Nets played a wave of 6-0 offensive.

The Lakers were forced to call a timeout again.

There was a burst of excited shouts from the Nets' bench. When Joe Johnson left the field, he received high fives from his teammates one by one. His performance during this period was quite encouraging.

"Good job." Tang Tian also affirmed Johnson's performance.

After the timeout, the Lakers directly replaced Kobe and Clarkson on the field, which is an early entry into the rotation.

Tang Tian also replaced Delong and Yi Jianlian, but Johnson performed well during this period and was still left on the court by him.

The Lakers attacked the frontcourt, and Kobe attacked with his back.

The continuous hard chisel did not move, and the shot that turned around was also predicted by Johnson, and the shot under interference finally jumped out of the basket.

At the beginning of the game, neither Bogdan nor Moore could defend against Kobe at all, but with Joe Johnson's stature and experience, Kobe is not as sure as he was in the opening game.

Both Deron and Jokic were on the court. The Nets did not play singles anymore, but started running tactics. Deron hit a three-pointer, and the Nets widened the point difference to 9 points.

Scott turned around and called again, and went straight to the main force ahead of schedule.

Kobe's face-up attack caused a foul by Joe Johnson, and both sides replaced the main players one after another.

Yao Ming played Jokic in the low post and scored a goal, breaking the scoring drought for the Lakers.

Looking back, Deron's breakthrough throw missed, but Johnson's tip-up caused Boozer's thugs, and two free throws also continued to increase points for the Nets.

Joe Johnson has a full sense of presence on the court during this period, and his debut after a month has a feeling of rebirth from nirvana.

Tang Tian watched happily from the sidelines, but he wasn't too surprised.

Johnson's strength is still there. There is no doubt about it. It is not surprising that he has adjusted his mentality to play such a performance. Moreover, because he fell out of the rotation before, the Lakers probably did not target this when they arranged before the game. In a sense, , this can be regarded as a surprise soldier.

Neither Kobe Bryant nor Yao Ming can play for too long. The strength of the two teams on paper is actually not much different.

And the 9-point advantage accumulated during this period is extremely precious.

The situation between the two sides has been stalemate. At the beginning of the second half, under the leadership of Kobe, the Lakers once narrowed the point difference to 3 points, but then Deron also led the team to play a wave of offensive and once again opened the point difference to double digits.

The two sides come and go, and the point difference has been fluctuating between 8 and 10 points.

In the end, the Nets relied on the advantages accumulated at the beginning of the second quarter to beat the Lakers 97 to 91 and won back-to-back victories.

Deron Williams scored a team-high 23 points and 7 assists, Yi Jianlian scored 16 points and 6 rebounds, Jokic also had 9 points, 10 rebounds and 5 assists.

And Joe Johnson, who appeared again after a month, surprised the fans. He played 26 minutes and scored 12 points, 3 rebounds and 3 assists on 5 of 9 shots.
