Lafrenz pulled out the pick-and-roll, but Kobe still bypassed it.

After the last false attack, Sun Hao took a step back three points.

Kobe kept up.

This is a textbook-style offense and defense.

Sun Hao finally faced Kobe's difficult three-pointer, and he was slightly leaning back.

However, even with such a difficult move, Sun Hao's eyes were full of confidence.

Because it is different from the ball just now, this ball is a coherent shooting move.

Both of them drifted in the air, their eyes facing each other, and time seemed to be frozen for a moment.

Then Sun Hao threw the ball towards Kobe.

Everyone's eyes were attracted by the spiraling basketball.

On one side of the court, Cuban's fists were clenched.

"Swish!"

A crisp sound.

"Zhang Weiping's Law" reappears, and Sun Hao's decisive goal has been scored!

106 to 109!

There was an uproar in the scene.

The Mavericks' bench was even more exciting.

However, the game has the last 2.1 seconds left and the game is not over yet.

Phil Jackson called a pause!

After the timeout, O'Neal was fouled as soon as the Lakers sent the ball in the frontcourt!

Old Nelson's choice is exactly the same as last year!

Moreover, this choice will actually involve a wave of endless discussions.

In history, those who lead three points and take the initiative to foul the opponent has lost the opportunity to equalize three points, and some have also failed, such as Houston.

Once the car crashes, the coach will definitely be criticized as 250.

Of course, there are also those who are equalized by their opponents without fouls. The most classic one is Rose's tied three-pointer during the Bulls period and a reversal in overtime.

Similarly, the opponent's coach was definitely criticized after the game by 250.

No matter which choice, the loss or the winning will be two completely different situations.

But there is nothing wrong with the old Nelson's choice.

Although O'Neal scored all the first two answers, his overall free throw shooting percentage was low.

And because of insufficient time, the Lakers were sent to the free throw line by a foul, there was only one way to win.

Regardless of whether the first penalty is made or not, the second penalty must be deliberately lost, depending on the situation, or the final game.

O'Neal's first penalty.

The scene was silent and the fans were nervously unable to speak.

O'Neal's punishment was a little heavier. This technique was like letting him cook in a small pot, which was really embarrassing him.

But the ball rolled on the basket a few times before rolling out.

With a lucky free throw, the Lakers are still 2 points behind!

Next, O'Neal must concede a free throw, and the Lakers may equalize the score or seek a final victory.

Because the Lakers did not pause, Phil Jackson once again showed his unique whistle command.

A whistle that others couldn't understand at all, but the Lakers players already knew it.

O'Neal's second penalty.

An obvious intentional punishment that was not fouled.

In history, Yao Ming has also had similar successful operations in Houston.

In terms of hand-work, O'Neal and Yao Ming are both the first among the big guys.

O'Neal got the rebound, but he did not directly attack the box, but threw the ball to Kobe on the left.

Bale rushed over immediately, and Sun Hao also assisted in defense like Kobe before, not giving him a chance to shoot the shot.

Kobe was forced to turn around outside the three-point line, and time no longer allowed him to make a complete shooting move.

After turning around, he held the ball in his left hand and threw it out of the three-point line.

The ball took action, and the red light on the sidelines also lit up.

This is a look of desperate attack.

However, after watching the familiar action, Sun Hao already had a bad premonition.

"Swish!"

In the end, that bad premonition was fulfilled.

Kobe, with one-handed three-pointer, completed the final kill!

Zhang Weiping's law is still valid, but this time Kobe completed the anti-winning kill.

The score on the field was finally frozen at 110 to 109.

Lakers O'Neal scored 35 points, 21 rebounds and 3 blocks, while Kobe scored 26 points, 6 rebounds and 9 assists.

Sun Hao of the Mavericks scored 30 points and 6 assists, Nowitzki scored 26 points and 9 rebounds, Finley scored 19 points, and Wang Zhizhi scored 8 points and 4 rebounds.

The Lakers players have already rushed onto the court, including many fans on the sidelines.

Kobe was cheering with his hands raised, and O'Neal went up and hugged him immediately.

The ok combination has produced a classic cooperation that has been recorded in history.

The goal just now was also played back. When Kobe scored with his left hand, Cuban was already smiling and shaking his head on the sidelines.

This ball cannot appear again for the second time, but it does leave the opponent with nothing to say.

Sun Hao let out a long sigh.

Although victory or defeat is common in military affairs, the victory or defeat in the regular season is not enough to explain anything.

However, in this game, Sun Hao learned a lot from Kobe.

Or in other words, this game also gave him a new training content.

He has to practice his left hand.

Only by drawing the left and right hands can you take your offensive threat to a higher level.

After the game, the two teams held a final handshake.

"You played very, very well, we were just a little bit lucky."

O'Neal is really good at being a human being.

He completely dominated the inside line in this game, but he could still say such words.

Perhaps it is only after a few years that Kobe will realize that being able to become teammates with O'Neal is the luckiest thing in his career.

At the post-match press conference, Old Nelson took the initiative to take responsibility.

"It was my choice to let the team lose."

Just like the analysis in the game, as long as you lose, you have to take the blame no matter how you choose.

"This game made a lot of sense to us. We proved that we have the strength to compete for the championship, but we still have a lot of room for improvement."

However, Sun Hao's words are the best summary.

What they said before the game is whether they have the strength to chase the championship is not a must.

Because they have always been back and forth with the Lakers on the scene.

Even if Kobe wasn't the incredible left-hand three-pointer in the end, the victory would already belong to the Mavericks.

Therefore, they have the strength to play against the Lakers.

And, like losing to the Celtics before, this will make them play harder in the subsequent games.

After all, half of the regular season has not passed yet, and maintaining a mentality is a very important part of the season.

After the press conference ended, Sun Hao and Nowitzki returned to the locker room.

Although he lost, the Mavericks players looked pretty good.

"My fault is that I didn't guard against him."

Bell also took the initiative to take responsibility.
