Chapter 1146 Four Pairs? Too Ordinary

"Bang!"

Gasol was knocked into the air.

"boom!"

Li Ba hit the basket and the ball flew away.

The whistle didn't sound, the ball was still alive, and was caught by Odom.

But Li Ba had quick hands and quick eyes. He stretched out his hand and picked the ball out of Odom's hands. Then he turned around and stuck the latter behind him, catching the falling ball.

As soon as he hit the ground, Li Ba pushed forward and knocked Odom into the reasonable collision zone. Then he turned around and smashed the ball into the basket with a bang.

Odom's center of gravity moved and he didn't have time to jump to defend.

Subsequently, the whistle sounded, and the referee pointed at Odom to block the foul. Li Ba added a free throw.

"Okay, now Odom has committed five fouls, Gasol and Artest have both committed five fouls. I wonder which one of them dares to reach out again?"

Yu Jia shouted excitedly.

Li Bajia made a free throw, 78:71, and the Suns led by 7 points.

The Lakers attacked and Kobe hit a three-pointer again. 78:74, the Lakers were only 4 points behind.

This time Li Ba didn't hold the ball anymore. He ran into the paint area. After continuous movement, he received Ginobili's pass at the free throw line.

Turning left, Li Ba broke through Artest and headed towards the basket.

Odom quickly returned to defend the basket, but Artest also tried his best. He broke out at the critical moment, moved faster, and rushed down after Li Ba.

Li Ba flew up, and Artest, who was one step behind, gritted his teeth and jumped up.

But he couldn't reach Li Ba. Li Ba's arms were too long and his jumping ability was better than his. But at this moment, he felt brave and stretched out his hand to hook Li Ba's shoulder, and then jerked down. A pull.

"oops!"

Seeing Artest's very dangerous move, countless people's hearts skipped a beat.

"Damn it!"

Stern, who was watching the game at home in New York, twitched his eyes and cursed directly.

He can tolerate a few home whistles, and even supports them, because the Suns swept the Lakers, which is not good for the league. Losing one or two games is pretty good, and preferably a tiebreaker, but he cannot tolerate this kind of dirty tricks.

If Artest were to destroy Li Ba, the losses to the entire league would be so great that not even a hundred Artests could compensate.

But at this moment, he could only hope in heaven.

With a bang, Li Ba was pulled down, and his center of gravity accelerated backwards. Instinctively, he pushed his feet back alternately after landing, and his body suddenly retreated.

Knowing that he had encountered a mastermind, Li Ba was also very timid. Taking advantage of his sudden retreat, he thrust his left elbow back.

With a bang, Artest let out a sharp howl, his body instantly bowed, and then Li Ba knocked him directly to the ground.

Li Ba fell on Artest, and the huge force caused the latter to roar, and a large amount of air was squeezed out of his chest.

With the support on his back, Li Ba was fine, he turned over and climbed up.

But he got up, Artest's howling continued, his body bent into a shrimp shape, his hands covering his sternum.

"husband?"

The girl pulled Guoguo and stood up, but she felt relieved when she saw Li Ba getting up and looking fine.

"doctor!"

The referee shouted.

The Lakers' team doctor immediately ran up and saw where Artest was covering his hands. He couldn't help but glance at Li Ba, his face turned a little pale. He turned back to Phil Jackson and shouted: "Phil, it's no longer possible. We need to send him to the hospital right away." In the hospital, his sternum was broken and suffered a comminuted fracture.”

At this time, players on both sides of the court also saw that there was an obvious depression in Artest's sternum. Which part of the body was hit? Their eyes were neatly looking at Li Ba's elbow.

"What are you looking at? He just happened to bump into him. It's bad luck for him." Li Ba yelled without explaining more.

Kobe was a little desperate. The team's toughest defensive guy was defeated by the hammer. How could he fight next? Even if they win this game, G4G5 will still be finished.

He glared hard at Li Ba next to him. Li Ba saw it and glared back: "Kobe, do you still want to imitate him?"

Kobe's face twitched and he whispered angrily: "Asshole, I know you did it on purpose."

"Shut up, idiot, are you out of your mind? Do you want me to give you a little kick from behind? Don't you like dancing the most?"

Li Ba cursed in a low voice.

"..."

Kobe clenched his teeth and said nothing.

After Artest was carried away, the referee watched the replay and made a penalty. Artest committed a second-level flagrant foul and the Suns made two free throws.

As for Li Ba's actions, there was no indication that they were intentional, so he was not punished.

With Artest gone, the Lakers' defense basically collapsed.

A minute later, Li Ba attacked the basket again and Gasol committed six fouls.

Before the end of the third quarter, Odom committed six fouls.

Zhang Liyi shouted: "The Hammer single-handedly defeated four Lakers generals. This is the perfect embodiment of his inside lethality."

"Kobe, let's fight."

In the fourth quarter, Li Ba stood in front of Kobe.

He is no longer needed inside. Dayao, Gasol, Arab, and Diaw are actually strong enough to compete with the strongest inside line in the league. Facing the Lakers' substitute inside line, it will definitely be a blowout result. Without the third Two possibilities.

Kobe did not give up and continued to attack in the fourth quarter.

Li Ba didn't arrange for anyone to double-team him, he was just singled out.

However, in the face of Li Ba's strong defense, Kobe's offense lost its sharpness, and he was intercepted and blocked many times in the final quarter.

At the end of the game, 125:102, the Suns won by 23 points.

Kobe played 48 minutes, scored 54 points, made 12 three-pointers, accounting for more than half of the Lakers' points, but lost the game.

Li Ba played 48 minutes, he was the main attacker in the first three quarters, 22 of 28 shots, 7 of 14 free throws, and scored 51 points, 20 rebounds, 2 assists, 10 steals and 11 blocks.

In terms of scoring, Li Ba and Kobe are both playoff highs, but they are not among the top ten single-game scores in playoff history.

After the game, Li Ba was surrounded by the media.

"Iron Hammer, you scored 50+20+ quadruple-doubles, which is the first in history. Congratulations, you set another record." Barkley shouted.

Li Ba said in surprise: "I didn't even play 5*5, and such bad data is also the first?"

Everyone was speechless, even Barkley wanted to hit someone, you are so pretentious, okay?

Kenny Smith laughed and said, "In history, Zhang Dashuai has scored 50+20+ triple-doubles twice, and Bellekin has also scored such data once, which is also great, but your data is obviously greater."

Li Ba laughed and said, "Really? But why do I think it's average? I still think five doubles are the best."

Still pretending? Everyone was speechless again.

"Iron Hammer, leading 3-0, do you have anything to say?" Zhang Heli asked with a smile.

"I look forward to the game the day after tomorrow being the last game of the second round." Li Ba laughed.

Although this was a crazy statement, no one among the reporters present objected. The momentum of the Suns sweeping the Lakers again was too strong.
