at&t center arena.
113:114, the Kings are temporarily behind by one point.
Spurs' Karl takes both of his free throws.
At this moment, the atmosphere in the entire arena seemed to freeze.
The fans stopped screaming;
The cheerleaders stopped dancing;
The mascot is no longer making trouble.
These two free throws are likely to play a decisive role in the direction of this game and even the entire series.
Mr. Bo's face was covered by a lush silver beard, and there was no expression at all.
It's just that the nose is getting redder and redder.
When he stared at the field, his eyes seemed to have frozen.
At the same time, he was also pacing anxiously, and while pacing, he accidentally bumped into the waiter on the sidelines, and the drink in the waiter's hand suddenly spilled all over the floor.
Mr. Bo was fully focused on the field at this time. Although he knew that someone had hit him from behind, he did not look back at all.
Until the referee stopped the game and signaled the ball boy to come over and clear the drinks on the courtside floor.
When Mr. Bo saw the referee coming to the sidelines, he came to his senses and looked at the drinks on the floor. He didn't pay attention at first.
He didn't even realize that he had knocked it over.
But the next moment, something suddenly moved in his heart.
Then he looked at his assistant, Sides.
Seders had a clear understanding and immediately turned around and left.
This sudden change made the almost solid atmosphere at the scene seem to relax slightly.
Whether they are players, coaches, or spectators on the sidelines, their tense nerves can finally relax a little.
However, there was one person on the entire court whose nerves were as tense as ever.
This man is Spurs All-Star guard Karl.
Although the referee stopped the game, Wang Yi's trash talk did not stop.
He even felt secretly happy when he discovered that there was a minor accident on the sidelines.
Because he had more time to trash talk Karl.
Wang Yi has studied psychology and has a deep understanding of people's psychology.
For example, an interview.
If you are interviewed by 10 people, if you are ranked first, even if you are nervous, you will only be nervous for a moment.
You will be relieved soon.
But if you are last in line.
You have to wait the longest, and you will be nervous during the whole process.
You get nervous when you see everyone getting up to go in;
You were also nervous when you saw them coming out.
When you see the disappointment on their expressions, you feel nervous because you think today’s interview will be very strict;
But you are also nervous when you see their happy expressions, because if they choose, your chances are even smaller.
In short, from the beginning to the end, it was a hellish torture.
Stay up until you are exhausted mentally and physically, and you may be in a daze when the last one comes on stage.
Under such circumstances, your condition will naturally not be good, and your performance will naturally not be good.
Now that he has more time to talk trash to that guy, Wang Yi will naturally not miss this opportunity.
He turned to Karl and said:
"You'd better make both free throws, otherwise you'll witness the greatest comeback in history."
Karl ignored Wang Yi.
He knew this was Wang Yi's psychological offensive.
When it comes to trash-talking, he can never criticize Wang Yi, so he simply ignores it.
But if he ignores Wang Yi, will Wang Yi stop trolling him?
Thinking too much.
Wang Yi continued to turn to Karl and said:
"In the game against the Raptors 6 years ago, they made two free throws at the last minute. Do you remember? How did I kill them?"
Karl still ignored it.
Wang Yi continued: "Five years ago against the Lakers, they missed two free throws at the last moment. How did I defeat them?"
Karl was a little irritated by what Wang Yi said.
He turned and tried to walk away.
But Wang Yi followed him closely and continued: "Three years ago against the Heat, they made two of three free throws. How did I beat them at the last minute?"
Seeing that he couldn't get rid of Wang Yi, Karl turned and walked towards Bobo on the sidelines.
Popovich was secretly shocked when he saw this, and quickly came over to Wang Yi and Karl.
At the same time, he smiled and scolded Wang Yi: "What are you planning on?"
Obviously, he wanted to defuse Wang Yi's trash talk offensive.
Wang Yi smiled at Bobo and shook his head, while raising his voice: "Oh, Bobo, your words are a bit hurtful. I'm not making any evil plans. I'm teaching your young players how to play at critical moments."
Two free throws."
Then he said to Karl: "Don't miss the penalty."
Karl felt a little irritable, and while he was irritable, he secretly encouraged himself in his heart.
I will never miss these two free throws.
Bobo saw that Karl couldn't withstand Wang Yi's trash talk offensive.
He simply put his arm around Wang Yi's shoulders, and with a little force on his hand, he pulled Wang Yi aside.
"You guy, don't think that I don't know what your plans are. I know you very well."
The audience was very confused when they saw that Wang Yi and Bobo were communicating in a friendly manner and even holding hands.
What do these two people mean?
Wang Yi seemed to be speaking to Bobo at this time, but in fact his voice was raised an octave higher: "Pop, as a head coach, this is not a good thing for you. You should have confidence in your players."
At this moment, Bobo wanted to put two pillows over Wang Yi's mouth and suffocate this guy to death.
He even felt that he had made a mistake by coming up just now.
Not only did it fail to resolve Wang Yi's trash talk offensive, it actually added fuel to the fire.
Looking back, although I couldn't see any change in expression on Karl's face, Bobo was Karl's coach and had coached him for two years, so he knew Karl very well.
He could see that Karl's heart was already fluctuating at this time.
This is indeed the case. Although Karl also knew that Wang Yi was deliberately affecting his mentality, under the current circumstances, everything Wang Yi said seemed to make sense.
Karl glanced at the time and then at the score, clenching his fists secretly.
No matter what, a penalty must be scored.
At this time, on the sidelines, while the caddy was cleaning the floor, Carl seemed to be in constant suffering, sitting on pins and needles.
Finally, the caddy mopped the drinks off the floor, then dipped another mop in detergent and mopped the floor three times.
The referee then began to clear the court and then signaled Karl to start taking free throws.
Carr stepped to the free throw line.
As expected, Wang Yi once again stood outside the penalty area in front of him.
This time, Wang Yi deliberately cleared his throat.
Then he said to Karl: "Karl, I know you can definitely make these two free throws. I'm optimistic about you."
As he spoke, he made Lao Xing's gesture again.
Under normal circumstances, if teammates encourage you like this, it will give you some confidence.
But if your opponent says this to you and makes such a gesture, it is definitely a sign of ridicule.
