I'm not really a role player

Chapter 208 Lore!

The Celtics paused, and the psychological game began again.

In Sam Vincent's view, the Celtics must replace Glenn Davis to start the offense. Therefore, he has long made up his mind to use this timeout to replace the old shark.

But in Rivers' view, this timeout is already the penultimate opportunity for the two teams to adjust before the end of the game.

If the most correct adjustment is not made, the last pause adjustment will not be necessary.

It is of course no problem to play a wave of offense with Glenn Davis. The problem is that the Bobcats are likely to return to the Sharks.

There may be no gap on the offensive end. If Glen Davis cannot be replaced, the defense will blow up.

Rivers hesitated, and finally kept Perkins.

Therefore, with only 1 minute and 17 seconds left in the game, the two teams switched back to the main lineup.

Bobcats: Lao Sha, Hua Lao Er, Li Ke, Lao Du and Lao Ai.

Celtics: Perkins, KG, Pierce, Ray Allen and Eddie House.

"The Celtics didn't make a substitution? Then why did they have a timeout?"

"Because they're going to get the Bobcats back for Shaq..."

Barkley also couldn't understand Rivers' operations, but Rivers on the sidelines didn't think it was outrageous.

Because he took advantage of this wave of pause and sprinkled chicken soup all over the floor:

"The game has come to the decisive moment. Have you seen the empty North Shore Garden Arena? Now it is the stage for Mr. Key. Maybe we only need one ball and we can win this game!"

"One goal, win the game, defend our home court to the death!"

"..."

So, the game restarted, and the Celtics changed their form.

"Ray Allen is very determined to break through with the ball, but after switching back to Shaq, the Bobcats' defensive formation is very neat, and there is no chance..."

"Paul Pierce catches the ball, turns his back to Sheldon, turns around, and shoots!"

Bang-dang-!
"Not in!"

Just in the next second, KG jumped up from the basket...

There was another bang, and KG hung on the basket.

"KG stepped forward and made a tip-up!"

"89 to 87, the Celtics lead by 2 points!"

The second Hua raised his hand, indicating that the ball was his problem.

Li Ke had a serious expression on his face. He glanced at the game time. There were 59 seconds left, and it was not yet the last moment for a goal to determine the outcome, but——

"The Celtics are already desperate, and we have to be desperate!"

In the backcourt, the second Hua handed the ball to Lao Ai, and then quickly advanced.

In the frontcourt, Lao Ai stopped the ball, and his eyes inspected every inch of space in the half court. He saw Lao Du at 45° to the left, Hua No. [-] in the low post, and Lao Sha near the frame.

But it was Li Ke in the bottom corner who really made Lao Ai feel threatened.

Are you slipping the line, Sheldon?

slip!
Looking at each other across the air, Li Ke and Lao Ai seem to have had some communication.

Then, facing Pierce's defense, Li Ke suddenly started. He seemed to take two steps towards the middle of the top of the arc, but finally turned around and turned back. Lao Ai's pass was also activated at this moment...

"Allen Iverson, he passed the ball, the target was the baseline, Sheldon!"

Li Ke on the bottom line has already started to charge, even if Pierce reacted, he couldn't stop Li Ke from breaking the wind and breaking the waves, and went straight to the basket!

Bang-!
"Sliding the baseline to catch the ball and dunk, Sheldon equalized the score!"

At the last moment, no one would go into detail about how each ball happened, but this ball, in the final analysis, was Pierce's mistake.

Li Ke's bottom line, since Lao Sha joined, has reduced his use.

On the one hand, the status has declined, and on the other hand, the old sharks have occupied the low position, and there is not enough space on the court.

In the playoffs, Li Ke's bottom line simply disappeared.

Until now, Pierce was caught off guard by his bottom line slip.

The score was equalized, and in the last 42 seconds, Rivers resisted the urge to call a timeout, but stood on the sidelines and shouted unabashedly:
"Fast attack, time control!"

Clearly, the Celtics wanted to control the clock and make sure they had the ball for the last down.

Li Ke felt that he could not let the Celtics get what they wanted.

Then he commanded on the spot: "Defend and go out, the audience is pressing!"

At the moment, Li Ke rushed to the front court, followed by Lao Ai and Hua's No. [-]. Lao Ai faced Jun Zilei, and Hua's No. [-] got stuck in front of Pierce who kicked off.

In the backcourt of the Celtics, Eddie House was going to catch the ball, but when he saw Li Ke pushing behind him, he panicked and didn't move.

On the other side, Junzi Lei ran back and forth a few steps, relying on a back run, and received the ball with difficulty.

But then, he was entangled by the second Hua who turned around, and could only pass the ball back to Pierce.

Pierce received the ball, Li Ke pushed it back directly, and Lao Ai made it back in front of Eddie House knowingly.

In this way, the Celtics' backcourt became the main stage of this round. Li Ke entangled Pierce and resorted to death entanglement.

"Sheldon entangled Pierce and made a steal, just a little bit!"

"Pierce was already scrambling the ball and space, and he signaled to the referee that Sheldon had fouled, but the referee didn't do anything."

"No way, he can only pass the ball."

But the Bobcats' goal of consuming time has been achieved. Jun Zilei received the ball with difficulty, and when he took control of the ball for halftime, it would take less than 8 seconds.

In the backcourt, Pierce was even entangled with Li Ke.

On the sidelines, Rivers spread his hands in frustration. A fast break was impossible, because 8 seconds had passed and only 34 seconds were left.

Even if it is a rough organization of a wave of offense, there is not enough time for the Celtics to plan to attack the two waves of this wave of offense.

In this case, it is better to play a wave of slow attack, finish the ball slowly, ensure the score, and ensure the lead.

Without much hesitation, Rivers called the Celtics' last timeout of the game.

"The Celtics' fast-break plan was shattered, so they had no choice but to pause. I have to say that Shelton made a great contribution..."

In the stands, Boss Joe was extremely nervous.

He clenched his fists and applauded Li Ke secretly.

On the other side of the ocean, it was still a text live broadcast. After listening to the commentary of TNT TV station, the live broadcaster typed a line: Li Ke blocked the Celtics' fast break, he made a contribution!
The barrage frantically swiped up——

"Ke Shen is awesome!"

"Come on, Lynx!"

"Damn Green Kai!"

"..."

Change positions and return to the court.

After a pause, on the Bobcats' bench, Sam Vincent held a tactical board, frowned, and looked at Li Ke from time to time.

Li Ke remained silent, but he was actually thinking about the hole card in his hand—the reward for the combination task!

"Although the nickname of the emperor is very fragrant, the nickname of 'tyrant' is too difficult to be recognized. 'Yellow Mamba', plus a wave of weight for the last shot? Look at it now, it is very necessary!"

Sam Vincent failed to get any advice from Li Ke, but he was not mediocre, so he naturally knew what he needed to do at this time.

"Man-to-man, Dai Quinn comes on, replace Jared, Shelton, your opponent is KG, as for Pierce, Gerrard, he belongs to you, if Ray Allen is the main attacker, then pay attention to his side attack, and Allen, mark Eddie House, you must not let him go..."

Everything is arranged in place, and the rest can only be left to the players on the field and God's will.

"The timeout is over and the game has resumed."

Still pressing the defense, the Celtics drove the ball to Pierce with difficulty.

Then, in the face of the second Hua's defense, Pierce resolutely put on a singles posture.

But everyone can see that Pierce just feinted the ball.

Li Ke, who was standing against KG, stared at Lei Allen in the bottom corner. The gentleman Lei in this position made him feel a great threat.

However, Dai Quinn Cook, who came off the bench, perfectly completed the man-marking task. No matter how Junzi Lei ran, he didn't give him a chance.

In this way, everyone's eyes were focused on the middle, and Pierce, who was holding the ball, pushed Hua's second to the middle distance.

There is no help defense, because Eddie House at the top of the arc and Ray Allen at the bottom corner cannot be emptied, and the same goes for KG in the low post. The stage is just handed over to Pierce and Hua Er.

"Continue to push forward, Pierce has gone deep, and the Celtics have no other choice!"

So, in the middle distance, Pierce suddenly turned around and made a fake shot!
Hua Er Er came to his senses and pounced on him.

Bang-dang-!
There was no exclamation, because the entire North Shore Garden was empty.

Only the chanting of "rebound rebound" and the hoarse voice made people hear despair!

"Rebound! Sheldon's!"

It was not Hua's second child who stood up to KG, but the powerful Li Ke, who was not good at judging the placement of rebounds.

But he knew that at this time, no matter where the rebound fell, he turned around and stuck KG, and Vans would be there!
In this way, Li Ke, who was successfully blocked, picked up the rebound and took advantage of the opportunity to take a timeout!
"Timeout, the ball has changed hands, 89 to 89, it is still a tie, but the Bobcats who hold the ball have already choked the throat of victory!"

He hugged the basketball tightly with both hands. Even though the referee whistle had sounded, he still hugged the basketball tightly and refused to let go.

I just breathed a sigh of relief, this game is almost won.

When Hua Laoer came to his side, Li Ke directly hooked Hua Lao Er's shoulder, leaned on Hua Lao Er, walked to the sidelines, but closed his eyes, entered the system, and resolutely received the reward of the combination task.

"Congratulations to the host, you got the title trait 'Mamba'!"

"Mamba: The title trait. Players with this trait will have the decision on the ball at the last moment, and the last shot that determines the outcome will receive 50% of the system's various skills and talents!"

Li Ke counts the traits that have been triggered——

The game that determines the outcome of the series will inevitably trigger the "big competition" feature. Li Ke has already obtained 20% bonuses for various skills and talents.

At the last moment, as long as the score is tight, the "big heart" trait will definitely be triggered, and Li Ke gets another 30% bonus of various skills and talents.

And now, with only the last 23 seconds left in the game, this shot must be the last shot.

Therefore, the title trait "Mamba" just obtained will also be triggered.

That's a 100% bonus.

The bonus is just a given probability, it will not allow Li Ke's skills and talents to break through the original level, and it will not guarantee that Li Ke will be able to hit the last shot.

But there is a bonus, Li Ke, who is good at the last shot, is already full of confidence.

"Sam, I'll take the last shot!"

When Li Ke made the request in this way, Lao Ai was the only one who refused to accept the whole Shanmao.

But it's useless for Old Ai to refuse, because Sam Vincent nodded: "We play a frontal feint and give the ball to the weak side. Allen, you feint, Sheldon, you stay on the weak side, wait for the opportunity, open, we Let Sheldon catch the ball..."

Sam Vincent arranged the simplest set of sideline ball tactics, without too many changes, but there are only two choices, either, Li Ke's three-pointer, or Lao Ai's mid-range shot.

With such an arrangement, Lao Ai lost his opinion. In the last vote, Lao Ai was not ignored.

Li Ke also doesn't care. After choosing "Mamba", he can control the ownership of the ball for the last shot.

On the Celtic side, after hesitating for a long time, they still decided on a man-to-man defensive strategy.

Thus, the timeout ended, and the final round that determined the outcome of the game began...

"The tee off, the Celtics' tight end, and Shelton came off the screen and got the ball."

"At the top of the arc, Shelton took control for a while and chose to pass the ball."

"It was Allen Iverson, the wing, Sheldon and Gerald Wallace set a screen..."

"The cover came out, and the Lynx continued to consume time."

"Iverson moved. Relying on Shaq's cover, he chose to break through. Time is running out..."

10、9、8、7、6……

Although there were no fans, the voice of the on-site commentary was amplified, and the countdown had already begun.

Li Ke, who had shrunk to the bottom corner, also started. Unknowingly, the old shark stood on the left side of the top of the arc, near the middle distance. Li Ke rushed to this area, and suddenly and not suddenly made a pick-and-roll without the ball.

Pierce, who was defending against Li Ke, was blocked just like that.

5, 4, 3...

So, when the countdown reached the last 3 seconds, Lao Ai, who broke through the middle, jumped up and threw the ball in the air!
"Iverson, he's a feint!"

"Pass the ball, 45 degrees to the left, outside the three-point line, Shelton received the ball!"

Needless to say, the big heart, the competition, and the Mamba traits just acquired, the system suddenly reminded again:
"The will of steel has been triggered, and the B-level three-pointer has been upgraded to the A-level!"

"Big heart, big game, Mamba trait bonus..."

Then Kenny Smith shouted: "The last second, three points, shot!"

The basketball has already been shot, no matter what the outcome is, this process can no longer be stopped.

On the benches on both sides, everyone's eyes followed the basketball.

In the private room of the stands, Boss Joe, Vic Grosbeck, Danny Ainge, Rich Joe... the same, all staring at the basketball.

On the other side of the ocean, countless people held their breath, and only the text commentator typed out a line: The three-pointer that determines the outcome has been shot!

Swish-!
"The ball is in!"

"Ke Shen is awesome!"

"Charlotte Bobcats, overturned the Celtics of the Big Three!"
