He immediately chased after him.

Howard on the other side saw Kobe rushing in and immediately threw Odom away and rushed forward. If Kobe passed the ball, he had nothing to say, but not covering up meant handing the basket to Kobe.

Howard also saw Lin Sen catching up to cover up the defense, and he felt relieved and focused his full attention on Kobe.

"Wood and Dwight!" Barkley yelled, looking at the court.

Kobe jumped up, and Lin Sen, who was immediately behind him, also jumped up, stretching his arms as much as possible and heading straight for the ball in Kobe's hand, while Howard in front of Kobe also raised his arms high.

Looking at the ball that appeared in front of him, Lin Sen slapped it without hesitation. However, Kobe suddenly dodges the ball and disappears from his eyes, and Lin Sen's uncontrollable hand hits Kobe's arm directly.

The referee's whistle sounded immediately, and Kobe, who was already in physical condition, forcibly threw the ball toward the basket.

Lakers fans were looking forward to a two plus one, but the ball finally slipped out of the basket and the Magic fans in front of the TV breathed a sigh of relief.

"Just a little bit, Bryant almost nailed Orlando to the pillar of failure." Kenny Smith said with a slight exaggeration.

Kobe glared at Lin Sen and walked to the free throw line. His free throw shooting rate tonight was not very good and he missed 4 of 17 free throws. However, this time he did not disappoint the Lakers fans and made two solid free throws.

"Bryant made two free throws and disappointed the Orlando Magic fans. He also increased his personal score by 47 points, although his shooting rate was not high, only 15 of 35." Kenny Smith said while looking at the statistics.

"There are forty-nine seconds left in the game, only a two-point gap. Wood has a huge heart, not to mention the key player in Chauncey." Barkley's words are also a source of confidence for Magic fans.

Lin Sen dribbled the ball past half-court and immediately handed the ball to Billups and quickly pulled away. However, the Lakers did not relax at all in guarding Lin Sen.

Billups was not in a hurry to attack. For the Magic, the pursuit of this attack was success rate, and he and Lin Sen made eye contact and decided to use a circle tactic.

Continuous movement. Lin Sen suddenly made a reverse run. Not only did he not sneak past the baseline, but he pulled out the 40-degree three-point line. Just when Pietrus' nerves were tense, Lin Sen directly plunged in from 45 degrees, and

Milicic inside made a screen to help Linsen block Pietrus.

Bypassing the inside line, Linsen went directly to the other side. Billups immediately passed the ball in his hands. After passing the ball, Billups immediately moved away from Linsen, while Artest also ran towards the bottom corner.

"Switch defense!" Kobe Bryant, who was guarding Billups, shouted and immediately pounced on Lin Sen.

Watching Kobe Linson rushing towards him, he suddenly raised the ball with both hands and made a shooting motion. Kobe jumped up subconsciously. When he took off, Linsen quickly collected the ball and pulled it horizontally before jumping up again.

.

"Wood shook Bryant, jumped horizontally, and shot from mid-range again. Is there a key shot this time?" Barkley shouted.

Kobe Bryant saw that Lin Sen was completely powerless. He could only hope that Lin Sen's touch would be poor, but Lin Sen disappointed him and sent the ball cleanly into the basket.

At 106:106, the two sides were tied again with 30 seconds left before the end of the game. Even if the Lakers used up 24 seconds, the Magic still had six seconds to complete the attack.

Phil Jackson requested a timeout. He had to arrange this key offense well.

"In a suffocating game, Wood once again proved to everyone how good his mid-range shooting is. He made 13 of 18 shots in the game. He took 17 fewer shots than Bryant but only scored 2 fewer goals."

"Charles, are you mocking Bryant?" Kenny Smith turned around and asked with a smile.

Back from the timeout. The Lakers replaced Pietrus and replaced Blake, while the Magic had no changes and remained the same five-man team.

The Lakers are not in a hurry to attack. They also pursue success rate. Even if they fail, they don't want to leave too much time for the Magic to attack.

The Magic's defense was also extremely tight, leaving the Lakers unable to find a good shot. Unknowingly, the Lakers' 24 seconds came to within ten seconds. Fisher ran towards Kobe and Odom.

At the same time, he ran towards Kobe.

"Lamar and Derrick cover! Bryant!" Kenny Smith yelled.

Lin Sen, who was chasing Fisher on the other side, immediately turned around to chase Kobe, but Kobe suddenly stopped and jumped up.

"Damn it!" Lin Sen cursed in his heart. He gritted his teeth and forced himself to stabilize his center of gravity before taking off, but it was still a beat too late.

Just when the Lakers fans wanted to cheer, a hand appeared from the side on top of the basketball that had just left Kobe's hand.

"Sean, Sean! Crucial block!" Barkley yelled.

Although Kobe got the blocked ball immediately, he was left with very little time. His hasty shot only touched the net and flew out of the baseline.

"It's so critical! Sean made a contribution. He got the last chance for Orlando. There were 6.05 seconds left, which was enough for Orlando to complete a shot. Stan called a timeout. Who would he hand it to? Wood or Chauncey or someone else.

?" Kenny Smith looked at the Magic players walking to the sideline.

The atmosphere of the whole court was solidified at 106:106. The Lakers could only guarantee overtime by preventing this ball. If they were scored by the Magic, they would have to accept the result of failure.

"Wood's first choice is still you!" Stan Van Gundy looked at Lin Sen and said.

Lin Sen nodded. Even though the team has a key player like Billups, he still feels responsible for taking key shots. This is not only confidence but also a symbol of the team's status.

"Chauncy, you are the second choice, Sean, you and Ron are the backup options, let's play like this..." Stan Van Gundy quickly drew on the tactical board.

The 100-second long pause passed quickly in a tense atmosphere, and both players stood on the court.

"Oh, Los Angeles chose to make substitutions. They brought in Anzu Bynum and Luke who had been on the bench for almost the second half. They replaced Derrick and Steve. Obviously they wanted to give Orlando some defense.

There is pressure, and there is no change on Orlando's side, but for Los Angeles, Orlando is not easy to defend." Kenny Smith said while looking at the players on both sides.

"Obviously, everyone has to be afraid when facing the current Orlando team. They have too many choices at the critical moment." Barkley said with a smile. Even if the Magic fails to score, it can still enter overtime and Kobe has already

His fatigue showed and he believed that entering overtime was also a victory for the Magic.

Milicic stood outside the frontcourt boundary. Linsen, Billups, Howard, and Artest stood in a straight line, while Linsen stood between Howard and Artest. Billups

Si stood on the outermost place near Milicic.

This position also caused big trouble for the Lakers' defense. As the referee blew the whistle, Milicic raised the ball, and four people on the Magic Field suddenly ran away.

Artest ran up, while Howard ran down, but both of them stood their ground immediately, while Linson and Billups took the opportunity to move.

"Move, Darko serves!" Kenny Smith shouted loudly.

Milicic threw the ball directly to Linsen. With the help of Howard and Artest's cover, Linsen reached the top of the arc and jumped up to get the ball steadily. However, the first moment he caught the ball, Kobe appeared in front of him.

In front of him, Lin Sen did not take action immediately but feinted and handed the ball to Billups.

"It's not Wood, it's Chauncey!" Kenny Smith shouted again, and Pietrus immediately pounced on Billups.

However, Lin Sen, who passed the ball, did not stay where he was. Artest, who was initially covering, came out.

Bang!

Kobe bumped into Artest, and Linsen escaped from his control.

"Defense!" the Lakers players on the bench shouted to the court. Lin Sen, who used the screen to get rid of Kobe, went directly to the inside. Bynum immediately ran towards Lin Sen, but Howard blocked him.

"It's still a cover, Wood has a chance, Chauncey passes the ball!" With Barkley's voice, Billups hit Pietrus and sent the ball out.

Lin Sen happened to bypass the inside line and came to this side. Pietrus wanted to pounce on Lin Sen, but when he turned around, Lin Sen caught the ball.

"Wood received the ball in the corner, chance, last chance!"

"Three-pointers, this is the offensive method Wood is most familiar with, Wood!"

Kenny Smith and Charles Barkley shouted one after another, and the voices of the Lakers fans at Staples Center reached their peak at this moment. They wanted to rush to the court and grab Lin Sen, but at this moment they could only watch.

Lin Sen, who was unguarded, took off from the three-point line in the right corner.

Lin Sen looked at the basket in the distance and shot the ball. Even if he didn't score, the team would still have a chance to play overtime, so he shot the ball without any pressure.

The moment the ball was released, Lin Sen felt very good.

Watching the ball fly towards the basket, Lin Sen raised his right hand high in the air and made a three-point gesture.

Whoosh!

A crisp sound of net wiping caused the entire Staples to fall into silence. Kobe looked helpless at Lin Sen in the corner holding up a three-point gesture.
