Chapter 397: High fives from Lin Sen
"Consider three-pointers first and then two points. In any case, the offense of this round cannot be exceeded 8 seconds. If it hits, then press the whole game and find a way to make a mistake. If there is no successful foul within 5 seconds, if it does not hit, it is necessary to foul it. It is best to hand over the rebound to the opponent's guard."
McMillan was rushing to arrange tactics, and even in this bad situation, it still did not affect his calmness. He explained the tactics very quickly. They only had such a short pause. The previous battle was too fierce, resulting in a long pause very quickly. At this time, McMillan could only explain so much in a short pause of 20 seconds.
On the sideline ball, this time he received the ball, cJ Myers, but unfortunately, this buddy obviously does not have the ability to attract defense like Eric Gordon. After receiving the ball, he quickly transferred it to George's hands. George's goal just now failed to make it, and the Pacers fell into this unfavorable situation. At this time, he had to save himself like Curry. Of course, he did not plan to wait until next season, and in this round, he wanted to save himself.
After George received the ball, he didn't even get lucky. Isn't it said that dribbling is my weakness? Then I simply stopped dribbling and had already asked for a fast attack. George didn't hesitate at this time. He took a three-pointer with fifteen seconds left. The difficulty was not as high as Curry. What Curry needed to cross Lin Sen's height defense. Now, he faced Iguodala's defense, and this defensive height was not at the same level at all.
George, who forced himself to take action, tilted his body and watched the basketball fall into the net. There was no celebration. He immediately stuck to Durant. He did not forget what McMillan said at the beginning, pressing for defense. At this time, he had to get the ball again to be the Pacers' chance.
The Warriors didn't take the ball, and Kerr quickly called a timeout again. He was very angry. Before that defensive round just now, he had already told the Pacers that he would never give the Pacers a chance to take three-pointers, but George pulled a ball. But now it's still 13.7 seconds, one point ahead, and the ball rights. They have an absolute advantage. The focus is on how to play in the next round.
The commentator's seat was already in trouble. Compared with the previous battle of Hukai, the cavalry battle, and the Tottenham Hotspur battle, in the last minute, although there was no specific decision on the winner, it was obvious that the leading side still had a relatively large advantage, and they all hit the key goal and led by 4 to 5 points. This time, the Warriors were the same, but this three-pointer from the Pacers made the game full of suspense.
"Paul's goal is very important. One goal to extend his life, the most important thing is a three-pointer! There are 11 seconds left, and the Pacers are only one point behind after scoring the goal. In any case, they still have a chance to have a last shot."
The Warriors kicked off on the side, and the Pacers' defense was clear, so they did not allow free throws to Curry, Durant and Thompson. The Warriors replaced several players with free throws on the court. However, Green was the only player with pick-and-roll ability on the court. As a result, under the Pacers' defense, Green received the ball. Linson did not hesitate and directly explained his fifth foul and gave him to the free throw line.
The fifth foul was fine, because this game was about to end. Lin Sen obviously didn't care about the number of fouls he had or not whether he would end. This game probably didn't have the chance to make Lin Sen's sixth foul.
"If I didn't score two free throws, I will kill you myself. Believe me Drummond!" Lin Sen did not forget to play trash talk to the opponent before Green went to the free throw. Green's level of trash talk at the end of the fifth game shocked Lin Sen a little. At this time, Lin Sen also came to provoke Green. Now he has a good mentality and does not feel that he is the side who wants to lose!
The first free throw was hit, and the basketball was hit several times before falling into the basket, but it finally made a comeback, which made Warriors fans breathe a sigh of relief. Green's three-pointers this season were not very accurate. At the same time, his free throw shooting percentage was not very good. Compared with those players such as Jordan Jr. and Andre Drummond, his free throw shooting percentage was still feasible. But not to mention that compared with those defenders, and compared with centers like Linson, Cousins, and Towns, he is a younger brother. This season's 7o% free throw shooting percentage looks good, but it is very likely to lose a free throw.
Linson saw Green score the free throw, and when Green and his teammates were slamming each other, they also slammed Green and gave a high-five. The trash talk continued: "I'm good at shooting, keep going, so I'll hit a three-pointer on your head next time and have a chance to go in overtime, but you have to make a tens of millions of shots, otherwise it will become a final kill."
Green glanced at his hand with great disgust. Lin Sen actually mixed with his teammates and slapped him in high-highlights, which made him depressed. As a result, trash talks came one after another. What's this called?
However, the four guys in the commentary table smiled and leaned back and forth when they saw this scene: "At this time, this guy Lin still has the heart to squirt trash at Drummond. I have to say that he has a very good mentality!"
"There is no way! It doesn't matter whether his mentality is good or not. The focus now is on Drummond's mentality. The goal just now has a bit of luck. Now we have to look at the second free throw. The hit is invincible. If we don't succeed, then the suspense will be very big."
Green's free throw preparation time was obviously a little longer than at the beginning. He drove several more shots before taking action. But this time, I don't know if it was influenced by Lin Sen Dongfang's mysterious power, but the ball hit the back edge of the basket and bounced very high. This would be a rebound that requires players to touch high.
The regretful voices of Warriors fans almost filled the center of Oracle with sighs. This missed free throw made the uncertainty of this game much higher.
