Jackson did not respond to Yu Fei's comment.
To others, it seemed like he was feigning profundity, but in reality, he just wanted to see how James would react.
Subsequently, what the Lakers felt was an incredibly tough defense.
It wasn't just Yu Fei's defense against James that was strong.
Pau Gasol tried to set a pick for James.
Yu Fei's choice was to bluntly squeeze past the screen, relentlessly pursuing to the end.
Following Pau Gasol, DeAndre Jordan chose to double-team James.
The constantly intensifying defensive pressure made James suspect that if he controlled the ball for one more second, it would be stolen, prompting him to quickly pass the ball to Pau Gasol.
However, such a pass was too close, allowing Yu Fei not only to react but also to reach out and disturb Pau Gasol's shot.
The Lakers' offense had completely transitioned to a small-ball format.
Taking the shot whenever there was an opportunity became the consensus among all players.
