And this quarter, Zhang San and the old Ironsmith's time arrived!
Zhang Yang went 6 for 3, including 1 for 1 in three-pointers, plus 2 for 2 in free throws to grab 9 points. Kobe went 5 for 3, plus 3 for 3 in free throws for another 9 points, leading the team to score 30 points in the quarter.
Harden, on the other hand, with his team's strongest meeting point underperforming, fought desperately, went 9 for 4, plus 4 for 4 in free throws, scoring 12 points in the quarter, still powerless to match the opposing team's wing and guard line's two stars.
Quarter score 30 to 24, through three quarters the Lakers lead the Thunder by 12 points, with a score of 98 to 86, expanding the gap to double digits!
