Rain, it just rains so much!

Zhang Weiping shouted, "This ball Zeng Zhen showed his aggressiveness, he finished another steal, this is still a flying save, oops, Zeng Zhen watch out, don't get hurt."

Said Hsu, "The Lakers got on the clinch just in time and didn't continue to let Iverson continue to freak out."

Wharton quickly brought the ball across the front.

Zeng Zhen got up after going down and pulled the front row of spectators in passing before quickly returning to the field and engaging in the match himself.

Walton gives the ball to Odom.

Odom holds the ball and watches, Zeng Zhen has started to run the ball.

Zeng Zhen slashed through from the right side, and Bynum on the inside helped Zeng Zhen in his line of travel for a ball-less cover.

The 76ers also made a decisive defense change, with Iguodala chasing Zeng Zhen.

When Zeng Zhen ran outside the left three-point line, Odom quickly gave the ball over.

After Zeng Zhen received the ball, he didn't take an immediate shot, but was alert and made a fake first.

Iguodala is just one body position behind Zeng Zhen, he saw that Zeng Zhen seems to be about to shoot, quickly jumped up and popped up towards Zeng Zhen to cover the past.

Zeng Zhen had already predicted that there would be a cover coming his way, and he calmly retrieved the ball.

Iguodala has thrown his body into the air and there's no way he can defend effectively anymore.

Zeng Zhen made a quick three-point play after taking a step to the right side.

The basketball made a wonderful arc.

"Swish!"

The sound of the basketball rubbing against the net was crisp and clear.

90 to 80.

A three-point double-double puts the difference between the two teams in double figures once again.

Chix quickly called a halt to the match.

Chix shouted angrily, "Andre, give me defense on his three-pointers, he's making them too easy."

Iguodala nodded, "OK."

Zeng Zhen was nominally Iverson's opposite man, but Chix no longer expected Iverson to be able to defend Zeng Zhen, and he didn't want to communicate with Iverson.

Iguodala kept breathing heavily.

Zeng Zhen makes him feel troubled if it's the kind of player who is very good at physical confrontation and tries to press him every round, then Iguodala won't be afraid at all.

But Zeng Zhen pressed for a strong offense and always kept running.

This kind of run will make his offense become very bad to mention, Iguodala can't figure out when Zeng Zhen will catch the ball and shoot, when is the catch and break.

Lakers side.

Teammates high-fived Zeng Zhen in celebration.

The crowd couldn't have imagined that the Lakers' record could now steadily move forward after Kobe's injury.

Zeng Zhen's play during this period was so crucial.

Zeng Zhen is the kind of player who can throw it in as long as there's an opening and he's looking at it.

His shot itself gives the crowd confidence, so the ball can be passed to him whenever he's open.

Zen Master was also thoughtful as he watched Zeng Zhen being welcomed by the crowd.

That just doesn't seem to be the way the team looks when Kobe is around.

TNT Studio.

Barkley said, "Reggie, what do you think was the difference between Tsang and a regular shooter?"

Barkley felt that Zeng Zhen was supposed to be a scorer, but the reality seemed to be that he had more of an impact than just a scorer.

After thinking for a while, Miller said, "It's as if he's tireless, he'll keep running down the court, he's not that kind of spot-up shooter, he can hold the ball and attack the ball, maybe a lot of people will only be impressed with his shooting, but under a closer look, you'll see that he's also very good at holding the ball and attacking the ball, and that makes it much more overwhelming for the opponents to defend him. "

Barkley said, "Do you think anyone can limit him?"

Miller said, "Sure, it just doesn't look like it exists on the 76ers at the moment."

.....

As the commentators exchanged words, the game continued on the field.

Iverson dribbles to the frontcourt.

He gave the ball to Webb.

Webber dribbles the ball out a step before giving it to Iverson.

Webber smoothly blocked Zeng Zhen, Iverson broke in on the right side, facing Bynum, Iverson to a sharp stop throw.

Bynum tried hard to jump up and seal the deal but it didn't work.

The basketball fell into the basket with precision.

"Swish!"

90 to 82.

Turn back.

Zeng Zhen continues to run the ball upfield constantly.

This time it wasn't Iverson who was defending Zeng Zhen, but Iguodala who had been in deadly close pursuit of Zeng Zhen.

Zeng Zhen tried to get away by running without the ball, and the 76ers used an unlimited defense this time, switching whenever they covered, and they kept the pressure on Zeng Zhen.

The good thing is that the Lakers played very patiently this time, to see Zeng Zhen did not run out of position in the first time also did not immediately start the offense, but continue to wait for Zeng Zhen to run.

After Bynum and Odom successively covered Zeng Zhen without the ball, Zeng Zhen received a pass from Walton on the right side.

Zeng Zhen received the ball and continued to fade, Iguodala and Korver at the same time, Zeng Zhen collected the ball and burst through the middle of the two.

Webb stood inside and came out to assist the defense, but he wasn't fast enough to give Zeng Zhen some space.

Apparently, the 76ers can live with Zeng Zhen's mid-range.

In their opinion, Zeng Zhen's three points are what kills, and the mid-range will be slightly less efficient.

Zeng Zhen made a sharp stop at the free throw line position and struck from mid-range.

Zeng Zhen's shot was very fast and the basketballs all made a wonderful arc.

"Swish!"

The basketball fell into the net with a crisp, loud thud.

92 to 82.

Webber also cursed when he saw how accurate Zeng Zhen's mid-range was, "Fark."

Once again, the sound of the scene stopped.

Zeng Zhen turned around and high-fived Bynum in celebration.

76ers offense.

Iverson dribbles past half court.

Iverson faced Zeng Zhen still right side breakthrough, occupying the body position breakthrough, Zeng Zhen did not completely lose position.

Iguodala cuts in on the other side.

Iverson gives the ball to Iguodala.

Iguodala forced a layup, but Bynum under the basket gave too much interference and Iguodala's layup was off.

Iguodala drew away the defense, though, and Webber on the other side jumped up to get the offensive rebound, followed by an easy two-point put-back with a footwork adjustment under the basket.

92 to 84.

Laker offense.

Zeng Zhen continues to run wild up front.

Bynum and Odom successively made the cover, this time Iguodala had the judgment, both bypassed the cover and continued to chase Zeng Zhen.

Walton gave the ball to Zeng Zhen at the top of the arc.

Another false start, and Iguodala doesn't jump this time, but he still comes in flying dash style.

Iguodala secretly said it was bad, and he forced his speed down, he was afraid of being fouled by Zeng Zhen.

As Iguodala adjusted his center of gravity, Zeng Zhen dribbled the right side of the ball and accelerated.

Zeng Zhen had an easy breakaway, and this time Dalembert stepped into the paint.

Zeng Zhen still did not go into the interior to force the attack, but in the free throw line with the three-point line in the middle of the rhythm to find a sharp stop in the middle distance again shot.

It's a great ball with great pace and a soft feel.

The basketball made a wonderful arc.

"Swish!"

Precision into the net.

94 to 84.

Zeng Zhen's mid-range offense remains solid.

Iverson had a very serious look on his face, and the 76ers could never get up the momentum to try to catch up on points.

It's dangerous to fight like this.

76ers offense.

Iverson plays a block with Webber, and after the block, Iverson breaks into the lane.

Still fighting off Bynum's forced offense.

Bynum didn't dare move too much, he had fouled Iverson three times tonight and was a little bit in the shadows, he could have easily sent Iverson to the free throw line if he moved a little bit too much.

Iverson hit all of his free throws tonight, and letting him make them is no different than giving away points.

Iverson scored on a layup off a confrontation.

94 to 86.

Laker offense again.

Odom held the ball at the top of the arc position, Zeng Zhen feinted to look for offensive opportunities on the outside, and when Bynum's cover was in place, he quickly cut inside again from the diagonal side of the free-throw line position.

Iguodala is slowed down and Dalembert comes in to assist on defense.

Odom to Zeng Zhen, Dalembot is moving too slowly.

Zeng Zhen dribbled a step down low and found an instant shot just to his left.

Sharp stop mid-range again.

Fighting with his wrists and pushing the ball out of his hand.

The basketball sailed over Webber's head and right into the basket.

"Swish!"

96 to 86.

Before it was back-to-back threes, this time it was back-to-back mid-range.

"Fark, this guy's shot is horrible."

"How does he throw so accurately."

"Three in a row, and anytime the defense has an opening, it's caught."

76ers fans are a little alarmed.

Barkley also screamed, "OMG, this guy's shot consistency is horrible, it's as if he takes advantage of it every chance he gets."

Said Miller: "He's got extremely soft hands, a great ability to look for opportunities and, of course, a really good ability to capitalize on them."

On the field.

Bynum came over and high-fived Zeng Zhen, saying, "Dude, your shot is so steady, teach me some day."

Zeng Zhen laughed, "What do you need me for if you're all here to shoot baskets."

From afar, Iguodala's eyes remained complicated as he looked at Zeng Zhen.

Before the game he thought Zeng Zhen was nothing more than a slightly stronger rookie who could merely shoot.

But after tonight's confrontation, he found that Zeng Zhen wasn't just a bit stronger, but frighteningly strong.

As long as he's open, he shoots more consistently than anyone else.

His shots aren't just the kind of shots that someone else creates an opportunity to take, he can create them himself.

The ability to make shots off the dribble and adjust rhythm in motion.

All of these abilities seem to set him apart.

You can't defend yourself against a guy like that no matter how hard you try.

What's next on defense? Iguodala is very much in over his head.

76ers offense again.

This time the ball still went to Iverson.

Zeng Zhen and Walton still went for the clinch as Iverson was preparing to attack.

Iverson was forced to pass the ball inside to Webb.

Webber faced Odom and tried to fly in for a layup after a straight fadeaway.

It was just too easy for Webb to think about this ball, and a dark shadow came flying out.

Bynum nailed the ball hard right to the rim.

Webber is coming up in age, after all, and he's not as physically imposing as Bynum is now.

The rebound bounces out of the cage and is controlled by Zeng Zhen.

Iverson was upset with his teammates, as if the team couldn't score consistently whenever he wasn't on offense.

Tired!

Not just physically tired, but mentally tired as well.

After Zeng Zhen dribbled to the frontcourt, he handed the ball off to Odom.

Odom had the ball at the top of the arc and Zeng Zhen continued to run around the coverage.

Zeng Zhen received the ball on the right side of the three-point line after a big run.

This time it was Iverson who chased down Zeng Zhen.

Iverson pounced on the defense and leaned forward, he had been shot by Zeng Zhen's over-the-top threes before and was afraid to let go.

Iverson blitzing Zeng Zhen is simple, Zeng Zhen blitzing Iverson is slightly more complicated, but not too difficult.

After Zeng Zhen caught the ball and faked a shot, the right side exploded and accelerated and burst through.

After Zeng Zhen broke through, he didn't rush to the lane to find a shot, but used his back to block Iverson's route back.

That's face-framing backstabbing.

Stronger defenders can often play this way.

Iverson's body was even thinner than Zeng Zhen's, and Zeng Zhen had a rare physical advantage, which he seized.

Iverson was blocked and was a little anxious as he tried to get down to cut Zeng Zhen's ball.

But it didn't work.

Iverson cuts to Zeng Zhen's hands but misses the ball.

Almost simultaneously, Zeng Zhen collected the ball and pushed it away.

The ball looks like it's got a bit of a rhythm going on.

"Beep!!!"

But still, Zeng Zhen took a shot, and the basketball arced out.

"Frame!"

"Swish!"

Two plus one!

98 to 86

Zeng Zhen also celebrated by waving his fist fiercely after seeing the ball drop in.

Zeng Zhen shot the 76ers' home field into silence.

Iverson shook his head.

Four consecutive middle distance.

That kind of efficiency is horrible.

CCTV studio.

Xu Jicheng said, "Instructor Zhang, what do you think of Zeng Zhen's outburst during this time?"

Zhang Weiping smiled and said, "76 people want to chase points this time, Zeng Zhen is not willing to give them a chance, the Lakers also have a change in tactics, they take the initiative in giving Zeng Zhen to create openings for shots, and Zeng Zhen grasps these openings, which makes the 76 people's pursuit of points become very difficult."

Xu Jicheng said, "Yes, now the head coach and his teammates are trusting Zeng Zhen more and more, guide Zhang, tell me, what should the 76ers do to limit Zeng Zhen now?"

Zhang Weiping said, "The 76ers should get on the clinch, otherwise that's going to be too hard to hold Zeng Zhen down."

On the field.

Zeng Zhen's extra point was a solid hit.

99 to 86.

76ers offense.

Iverson dribbled the ball upcourt and proceeded to initiate a block with Webber.

After the block, Iverson broke in again.

Iguodala continued to cut inside, Iverson drew the defense away, and Iguodala caught the ball on the wrong side of the lane for a solid layup.

99 to 88.

Laker offense again.

Odom holds the ball past half-court.

Zeng Zhen continued to take Iguodala on a run down the right side.

As the commentator said, it's not just one person who is now keeping an eye on Zeng Zhen, there are other players together to help Iguodala to be ready to pin down Zeng Zhen at any time.

Odom has been watching, and he remains patient.

Zeng Zhen's running down the field is flexible and fluid, as he repeatedly weaves in and out of the field and runs backwards just to find an opportunity to catch the ball.

Finally, with Vujacic all but covering Zeng Zhen, Zeng Zhen came to the top of the arc to receive a pass from Odom.

Zeng Zhen caught the ball and then made a smooth shot fake to shake Dalembert, who was chasing and changing defense.

Instead of choosing to take a shot from the three-point line, Zeng Zhen took a step and burst in.

Zeng Zhen was so attractive to the 76ers' defense that perimeter players moved closer to him.

It's just that Korver and Iverson's defense really doesn't put much pressure on Zeng Zhen.

Zeng Zhen chose to throw the ball to the right side of the basket this time.

Unattended, Bynum drew up on dry land in the three-second zone, caught Zeng Zhen's pass with both hands and slammed the ball hard.

"Frame!"

101 to 88.

"Ah!!!"

Bynum yanked on the basket with both hands and bounced hard.

The members of the Lakers' bench were also acting as if they were playmakers.
