678 Marksman's Scepter Handover
In the last minute, both sides played very conservatively and did not take action until the last two or three seconds. Even if they failed, they would not give the opponent time.
One offense and one defense, neither side scored. This is the moment when life and death are determined. The players on the court are all nervous. If they don’t give up in the defense, I can’t score, but you don’t think about scoring.
The score is still 9-98, there is not much time left, the last 35 seconds
The Warriors passed the ball several times, and the Celtics' joint defense was not leaked. Anyone who got the ball would have to face at least two people. Chamberlain played for 48 minutes and was already out of breath. When Perkins, who was good at defending, came back to the court, he kept pushing him, making him unable to stand firm in the penalty area.
24, 23, 22... The offensive time disappeared in seconds, the ball was transferred from Curry to Chamberlain, and encountered double-teams and passed.
21,20,19...West received the ball from the outside and changed direction to break through. Pierce made up for defense and cooperated with Rondo's double-team. West could only retreat and pass the ball.
18,17...Ibaka almost broke the ball after getting the ball. He gave Chamberlain again, and he hit the back and double-teamed again
10,987…¨The ball went round after round and finally came to Curry’s hands.
"Defense, Defense, Defense," the Green Shirts fans shouted excitedly.
Curry received the ball, and Junzi Lei opened his arms and stared at him. He slowly slapped the ball and retreated, anxiously looking at his teammate's position. He wanted to pass by Chamberlain, but even if there was no ball, Chamberlain was double-teamed, and there were too few opportunities.
Junzi Lei guessed that Curry would pass the ball, but Curry suddenly accelerated the speed of the ball and suddenly stepped sideways and rushed forward. Junzi Lei pulled his heels up. He knew that the attack time was not much. After disturbing him twice, the opponent would commit a 24-second offensive violation. At that time, the Warriors could only use foul tactics, and the Celtics won.
Gentleman Lei chased Curry and did not stagnate him, but kept pushing him on the wings, because he knew that for shooters, blocking was not the most terrifying thing, and many shooters could perform their skills. However, if you disrupt his rhythm and make him lose his calmness, even if you leave him a free space, he would not be able to hit the ball.
Curry frowned, without a trace of expression on his delicate face. Gentleman Lei was chasing him, and Pierce came up from the front again. He had no chance to see this. He gritted his teeth hard, took a step forward with his left foot, then twisted his waist and turned around, and stopped his body that rushed into the three-point line. The next second he quickly stepped out of his right foot, turned around and rushed out of the three-point line.
His decision surprised both Junzi Lei and Pierce, and Curry had no time to think about anything. The moment he rushed out of the three-point line, he turned around and jumped up without thinking - yes, rushed out of the three-point line, just like a 360-degree turn and dunk, he turned around and jumped up.
Junzi Lei roared and then jumped up, his eyes staring at Curry's hands, or the fiery red ball in his hands.
His slender body rose up and his arms were raised high. Curry's frown loosened, his face was calm and natural, just like his mood, at this moment. His wrist was stable as if it had not melted for thousands of years on the top of Rocky Mountain, and his eyes were cold like the cold wind blowing through the top of the mountain. At this moment, he could not even hear the noise in the arena. He was immersed in his own world, the world of Sagittarius.
Seeing Curry's expression clearly and understanding the state of this young man, Junzi Lei's heart sank.
The big screen gave Curry a close-up, and after the fans saw him clearly, their hearts were also sank.
The orange ball flew out and quickly rotated in the air, leaving a perfect arc, and the ball hit the rebound - the fans were about to cheer, but the ball then rebounded quickly, hit the target, and entered the basket ring through the heart.
"Swish" the ball rubbed against the nets and made a crisp sound. The sound was not loud, but at this moment, it was like thunder in everyone's ears.
The stadium was extremely quiet by the thunder, and the Celtics were as stupid as a wooden chicken. On the contrary, the Warriors' bench and the fans' seats made hysterical roars, and the players present were extremely excited. Chamberlain and West rushed up wildly, surrounded Curry, hugged him and kept pushing him. The scene was chaotic for a while.
The library smiled and raised his fingers to point at Junzi Lei. Did you see that? I made six three-pointers today.
Old Nelson stood up, and there were 12 seconds left, 10098, they were 2 points ahead, and he still had a timeout.
The players of the Celtics are all veterans and veterans who have experienced many battles, but this time they were also confused by Curry. Brother, you don’t play according to common sense. You are one point behind. Just now, you just need to shoot 2 points, why do you want to shoot 3 points? You said, you said, why did you go to shoot three points? We didn’t expect
But they were calm and quickly. Reeves took out the tactical board and quickly drew the player's position on it. He came up with a new tactic, and waited for old Nelson to call for a timeout. Then he deployed the offensive tactic. This time, he would never leak the secret. He shouted to his assistant: "Look at the little kids raised by those bitches, don't let them get close to us. If there is another leak, you all give me a resignation report and get out."
The assistant coaches nodded embarrassedly, but, the problem arose, and old Nelson stood up, but he didn't call for a pause.
The Green Shirts were confused again: Old man, we know you are a scientist, but should you be so crazy?
Old Nelson yelled angrily: "Defense, defend their 3 points, at worst, play overtime. Men, our physical strength is an advantage."
Reeves screamed: "Put the ball, run the ball continuously, go to cover, Pierce, the No. 5 tactic, execute the No. 5 tactic"
The referee handed the ball to Garnett and signaled him to serve quickly. Rondo dribbled through the half and handed it to Pierce.
Pierce calmed down in the free throw area, and then skillfully dribbled the ball, his body swung with his shoulders, looking for a good opportunity to attack. Jackson took a deep breath, leaned over and stared at Pierce, his muscles and spirit were tensed to an unprecedented state, and this ball must be defended.
A ball dribbled under his crotch, and the jumping ball fell obediently from his left hand to Pierce's right hand. Then his strong body suddenly lifted up, and the ball rolled and jumped. His wrist turned, pushed his big hand forward, and then stepped forward with his left foot, and a quick change of direction made a breakthrough for Jackson.
Jackson followed with his arms, blocking Pierce. The latter ran two steps in a row. He barely followed. As a result, he suddenly bumped into someone when he moved sideways. He felt cold and turned around and saw Junzi Lei stopping beside him, and then ran out of the three-point line.
The deployment of the Green Shirts made Jackson a little conflicted. Should I chase Pierce or Gentlemen Ray? Pierce is even more threatening, but Gentlemen Ray may hit three
Pierce would not give Jackson time to think. After passing the opponent, he faced Ibaka who was making up for defense. His left foot suddenly pulled back, then he lowered his waist and changed direction, tilted his body to the front left, and then his speed suddenly increased to the fastest, and he roared over Ibaka in one step.
Gentleman Ray and Rondo once again covered each other, while Garnett used Perkins to block Chamberlain. He ran out and reached out to respond to Pierce.
Pierce passed the ball to Garnett. After the Wolf King got the ball, Chamberlain rushed over. Seeing this, Garnett passed the ball to Garnett outside the three-point line.
When he received the ball, Junzi Lei stood up. This posture scared Curry and West. They surrounded him from left to right. At this moment, Junzi Lei decisively passed the ball, and the ball returned to Pierce's hand. At this time, Pierce had already reached the basket.
After getting the ball, Pierce jumped up and took the action. The penalty area was now blank, and Chamberlain was blocked by Garnett.
He took a deep breath to stabilize his body, then threw the ball out, and then a muffled sound came into his ears, and then a strong wind rushed from behind.
"NO" fans screamed in despair in the stadium.
Pierce turned back in fear and saw a figure flying over the sky. His huge body enveloped the restricted area. His right arm stretched out like an intercontinental missile being ready to launch, and the extended hand was the missile's warhead-
Precision guided missile warhead
With a dull bang, the ball was pressed hard on the rebound.
Then, the edge of the rebound turned scarlet, and the referee blew the whistle, but waved his arms to signal the end of the game.
Garnett got up from the floor and shouted to the referee: "He was a defensive foul and he knocked me down. This block is invalid."
The referee shook his head and explained, "No, Kevin, you know, that's a normal confrontation." He looked at Garnett and added, "Go back and check the video. The feet of both of you were in the reasonable collision zone just now."
On the NBAR spoon court, there is a semicircle under the basket with the center of the basket as the center and 4 feet.2 meters as the radius. This area is called a reasonable collision zone. Standing within the arc, as long as the defender has physical contact with the offensive player, a defensive foul may be judged. Outside the online, the defender can stand in advance. If the offensive player touches the defender with his body, the offensive player will be judged to hit someone. In the reasonable collision zone, when the opponent attacks, the defensive player will not be called a foul if he jumps vertically, and does not jump or moves his body and causes physical contact, he will be called a defensive foul.
The clever thing about Chamberlain's defense is that Garnett, whom he hit, was off the ball, and when Pierce blocked, he jumped again.
Very clever defense, very successful defense.
Barkley slapped the table and cheered: "This is the most exciting defense I have ever seen. It is a great defensive master. He has raised the defense to the artistic level. Yu Deliang is beautiful. If I have such a defensive level, I will wear the championship ring on my toes."
Barkley is not bragging about this. Jordan said that if Barkley could defend well, he would have won the championship long ago. But Barkley just didn't defend, as Malone said: "O'Neal and Barkley are definitely the worst performers in history to play pick-and-roll. Facing them both, we like to play this way at critical moments because we know they don't want to defend the pick-and-roll."
The Warriors cheered up and down, Chamberlain grabbed the ball and raised it over his head, and the players on the bench rushed up, surrounding him and screaming, as if they won not the regular season, but the finals.
The victory in this game has special significance. Neither Chamberlain nor West can lose to the Celtics. Chamberlain especially needs a victory to prove himself and prove that he is capable of leading the team to success without the assistance of Iverson and Billups.
This is necessary, and it is a sign that determines a player's growth into a superstar.
At the end of the game, Chamberlain walked to Garnett and others. The relationship between the two sides was not very good. Chamberlain and the Celtics were fighting. Not only were active players, but also retired stars such as Bird McHale. From time to time, the two sides had to quarrel, so they didn't have to hug each other after the game, and they shook hands and went their own way.
But Chamberlain would not let the matter end like this. When both sides were about to leave, he suddenly smiled and called Pierce and others, and asked, "Man, your dance before the game is interesting, how about it, how about it, how about it?"
Pierce snorted coldly, leaving with a blue face, while West twisted his body and swayed left and right there.
Jackson spread his hands helplessly and said, "Man, have you taken drugs? Are you swaying like a Christmas tree in the wind now?"
"It's a celebration," West cheered.
After winning this game, the Warriors were very happy and in a good mood. Chamberlain did not attack his opponent at the post-match press conference. After the game, he invited Cao Nan to have a midnight snack, or Cao Nan invited him to have midnight snack, but Chamberlain paid the bill anyway.
When he arrived at a local Chinese restaurant, Chamberlain suddenly discovered that Cao Nan was also bringing a friend, a Chinese young man about 1.9 meters away.
