I'm a boss in the NBA

Chapter 555 The tree-lined path is not smooth enough?
Powerless.

Rose really felt a little powerless.

With more than 1 minute left in the game, the 5-point lead just now has been tied.

There is no way, in the past few rounds, Xu Xuan led the team and scored 6 points in a row with sudden shots. He wanted to stop it, but he couldn't.

Just like Xu Xuan couldn't guard him before, now he can't guard Xu Xuan either, he can only watch Xu Xuan score.

And he can only make one or two emergency stop jump shots from time to time, but the success rate is not very good. In addition, because of Xu Xuan's interference in the shots after the forced breakthrough, he hit the iron one after another, that's it.The Lakers slowly tied the score.

Seeing the previous lead being tied, this feeling is as uncomfortable as a needle prick.

The situation is still esoteric, and it is still unclear which side will win, but in the mind of the commentator, the balance of victory has begun to tilt towards the Lakers.

"Now the Knicks still have a point to win, but it depends on whether Porzingis or Melon can stand up." Kenny Smith said, "Porzingis is still strong at this point, Zubac on the Lakers side Even dealing with Yi Jian is very troublesome. As for Anthony, the Lakers will definitely arrange for Barnes to defend, and there may not be many opportunities."

This Knicks is now strong inside, with height, speed, confrontation, and good scoring ability.

"But I don't think it's a good idea to put Derek on the court at this time. Derek consumes a lot of energy. If I play him again at this time, I don't think it will play a very good role." Reggie Mee Le was a bit puzzled by Knicks head coach Jeff Hornacek's final lineup mix.

"At this time, he can replace Derek with Jennings, who is more physically fit and healthy. It's another defensive round. Why put Rose on it?"

Compared with defense, Rose's more important task is obviously offense.

Instead of letting him waste energy on the defensive end, it is better to stay on offense and play a greater role.

"."

Kenny Smith pondered for a while, "Maybe there are some special arrangements, or Ross himself asked for it."

Ross asked for it himself?
possible!
Considering Rose's character, this possibility is still very high!

Back on the field.

Xu Xuan dribbled the ball at the top of the arc and looked up at the score.

There is still 1 minute and 50 seconds left on the timer, which is constantly rolling.

112 to 113, now the Lakers lead by 1 point.

Rose is ready to defend on the three-point line.

His right foot is half a step forward, his body is slightly leaning forward, his right arm is stretched forward, and he is in a standard single-defense posture.

He was about half a meter away from Xu Xuan, and his hands were directly in front of Xu Xuan's face.

The half-meter distance allowed him to have enough room and time to react if Xu Xuan made a breakthrough.

If Xu Xuan makes a jump shot, it is also guaranteed that he has enough room to accelerate his jump.

The scene seemed a little frozen, not even the sound of breathing.

Countless fans at the scene and in front of the TV were all staring at the two of them.

Xu Xuan moved suddenly, turned around, and he took the initiative to lean on Rose.

Hitting back, his action is not surprising, because back hitting can allow Rose to interfere with his shot to a minimum, and he also has the killer skill of a picturesque fadeaway jumper.

At the same time, back hitting can also make Rose lose reaction space and time.

The referee had already arrived beside the two of them, staring at their movements without blinking.

At this time, no one noticed that Russell, who was at the top of the arc, had retreated to the center line, looking sideways at Ross and Xu Xuan.

Ross retreated a little when Xu Xuan came up, so that the latter's buttocks could not touch him, so that the latter could not judge his movements through the feeling of his buttocks.

So the two aren't really close together.

Xu Xuan felt that there was nothing behind him, so he quickly retreated a little.

Rose stepped back with his right foot, but suddenly stepped back and immediately stepped forward.

At this moment, Xu Xuan suddenly turned around and retreated.

It turned out that Xu Xuan took advantage of the moment when Ross retreated and made a jumper with a turn and a step back.

He calculated Rose's retreat.

Rose did not estimate Xu Xuan's calculation, but on the defensive end, he has always been going all out, 100% focused.

Some people say that defensive skills are the most important, no, attitude is the most important.

Attitude allows you to devote yourself wholeheartedly, to give full play to your strength, and even perform supernormally, just like Xu Xuan in this game.

Attitude determines life, and it's the same on the court.

So when Xu Xuan turned around, Ross reacted, and he immediately took a quick step forward.

At this step, he bet that Xu Xuan would take a step back.

The reason is simple, Xu Xuan can't ignore his defensive ability, nor can Xu Xuan ignore his confrontation, even if he is old now!He is tired!He is hurt!

Xu Xuan will definitely take a step back, and only dare to make a move when he is far away from him.

But if he didn't bet right, he would bump into Xu Xuan and be sentenced to a foul.

He was right. When Xu Xuan turned around and took a step back, he had already jumped up and was waiting for Xu Xuan in the air.

Xu Xuan's movements were very beautiful and very coherent. When he retreated and leaped up, he froze all his expressions in an instant with a murderous look on his face.

"Snapped!"

Ross slapped the head and slapped the basketball that Xu Xuanzheng raised up.

"Oh!"

The audience exclaimed.

"Oh!"

The hearts of all the fans watching the game all over the world suddenly jumped.

"Hat, the hat fell off?!" Barkley stuttered.

"Block the hat, the hat, the hat, the hat." Reggie Miller next to him was so excited that he jumped up immediately, his mouth shaking like a machine gun.

"Xu Xuan was hated??"

"Xu Xuan was actually hated!!!!"

Just now they were still analyzing why the Knicks wanted Rose in the defensive round, and now they understand, Derrick Rose, this "rose", can attack from a distance and defend from a distance, it is too strong!

"yeah!"

"Derek, kill the Lakers..."

The Knicks' bench boiled, everyone jumped up and roared.

Coach Hornacek is also relieved now, with an uplifted expression, he frantically waved his fists at the camera.

He is excited!

Originally, he really didn't want Rose to play in this defensive round. Rose had already played well enough in this game, but Rose himself strongly demanded to play, and he couldn't help it. Unexpectedly, the ball was really blocked. .

A clean seal!
The Lakers fans were also shocked, and the Staples Arena was silent.

The basketball was slapped down, bounced on the ground and bounced again, Rose tried his best to grab the rebound, the veins on his face burst out, and his body seemed to be unable to straighten up under the pressure of this explosive force. It was his last strength in the game.

"here!"

Cornett Lee turned back and opened his hand to Rose, who was almost down the frontcourt and would go over the top arc in the next step.

Russell, who was marking Lee, had just turned around at this time, and there was a half-court gap between the two.

"boom!"

Cornett scored a dunk.

114 to 113, the Knicks came back again!

The game situation is changing and the pace is very fast.

The Lakers were leading just now, but now it's the Knicks again.

But after Rose's goal, he was indeed "running out of fuel".

Xu Xuan stepped on the three-point line and pulled up aggressively against Ross.

Rose's feet were already very heavy. He tried his best to jump up, but he couldn't keep up with Xu Xuan's jumping rhythm.

It's not that Xu Xuan doesn't want to shoot three-pointers, but that he wants to dribble to find rhythm, and the high position is his rhythm sweet spot.

Xu Xuan threw the ball with a high-quality leanback.

Spread your feet apart.

Shot comes with BGM and picturesque special effects——

Rose couldn't jump.

It's like two tons of iron wrapped around the leg——

"Whoosh!"

"Shh!"

The sound of basketball brushing the net came. For the Lakers fans present, this seemed to be the most beautiful music in the world!
114:115.

"Beep!"

Coach Hornacek used his penultimate timeout opportunity.

Rose was still replaced, and his physical fitness was not enough to support him to continue playing on the court.

Jennings comes on.

In 59 seconds, the Knicks had the ball.

Jennings took the ball from the sideline, was very calm, did not rush to play, and lobbed the ball to Melo who was stuck in the low post.

Melon caught the ball with one hand, and with a sharp push from his back, Barnes took a step back involuntarily. It was this step, and Melon took advantage of the momentum to complete the turn——

A backlash——

Use the tonnage to squeeze the space, and the fadeaway jumper is Melo's forte.

It's a pity that this ball with countless expectations from the Knicks failed to fall into the Nets in the end——

With a "bang", the basketball hit the basket's neck - bounced.

"good chance!"

Yi Jianlian was already stuck in the basket, seeing that Melon missed the shot, he immediately jumped up——

On the other side of him, a figure also jumped up, it was Porzingis.

His position is not as good as Yi Jianlian's, but he is tall and has long arms. Although Yi Jianlian took a step ahead and got stuck in a good position, he was the first to touch the ball!
So talented!

"Blanton!"

Porzingis yelled angrily, rushed ahead of Yi Jianlian, and slapped the ball.

Jennings had a look of surprise on his face, which was about to go back to defense. Can this ball grab an offensive rebound?

Incredible!
"Beautiful! Chris!"

Porzingis' full name is Kristaps Porzingis, but everyone familiar with him calls him Chris.

The offensive rebound was taken down, and the hearts of the Lakers fans on the sidelines seemed to be broken.

"Tsk tsk, what do you say? This is a natural job, with a height of 221 and a wingspan of 228. You jumped up with all your might, only to find that he could touch it with your hand." Yu Jia spread her hands, helplessly.

Yi Jianlian's location card is not good enough?

Can't jump high enough?
Still not handsome enough?
I have done everything, but I can't match the four characters: extraordinary talent.

Jennings took over the ball again, and rushed directly to the three-point line - taking advantage of the chaotic situation now.

At the same time, Melon and Cornett Lee also rushed from the two wings.

Pass the ball!
Xu Xuan's timely defense made Jennings lose the opportunity to attack, but Jennings passed the ball to Porzingis who was cutting inside despite his busy schedule.

You grab the rebound, you hit it yourself!

Porzingis is also tough enough. After receiving the ball, he dribbled twice on the spot, aimed at the basket and hit the board with a straight shot-he didn't even lift his body, and the ball went out
"Shh!"

Hit the board to score and hit a two-pointer.

116:115.

"Boshen blew up the ball! He grabbed the offensive rebound and scored by himself, my God! Are young people so ruthless now?" Qiuqiu Sports Studio, Yang Yi's commentary was full of passion.

"Young people are not ruthless, but they were all brought down by Xu Xuan." Ke Fan next to him said with a smile: "You see, when young people first entered the league, they had to be as obedient as possible, even if it was Chris Paul, isn’t he thorny enough? Back then, he wasn’t an honest backpack hander.”

Even for Curry, it took a few years to survive, but since Xu Xuan entered the league, the young people have changed, and Xu Xuan has led them astray, and they are all confident
"But after all, once Porzingis scored this goal, the Lakers are in danger." Ke Fan continued: "There are 35 seconds left, two rounds if there is no accident, but I am thinking about this game. It’s likely to go to overtime.”

Lakers possession.

The Lakers made a strong attack in the frontcourt, and the fadeaway jumper from Xu Xuan was picturesque——

The direct hard pull after the cross step——

After Jennings opened his hands and jumped vigorously, he interfered with Xu Xuan's back.

But it didn't work—!
The ball still fell into the basket under the desperate eyes of Jennings——

"Shh!"

The sound of swiping the net is exceptionally crisp!
116 is better than 117!

Scored two points.

The Lakers once again lead by one point!
These two points are fatal. Jeff Hornacek on the sidelines shook his head depressedly, can this also be scored?
It was obviously a two-point goal for an offensive attack, and Jennings' defense was also in place, but except for being almost called a foul, the goal that should have been scored was still scored
There are still 30 seconds left, so we must delay.

The 24-second attack clock was delayed.

"Beep!"

The referee over there is already blowing, and the timeout is coming.

Jeff Hornacek gave a last word of advice, and then cleared his throat. There was no way, the timeout was exhausted, and the next thing to do was to yell.

However, to everyone's surprise, Rose came back after this timeout!

Not to mention others, Xu Xuan didn't expect that he saw how Ross ended up with his own eyes. He was almost carried down by someone. With those cramped and trembling legs and pale and bloodless face, he didn't know where he was. Xanadu went in and out all night
But now he is back again?
Fake!

Is the girl last night not pretty enough, or the tree-lined path not smooth enough?
Why are you back again? !
"Ho Ho Ho Ho! Derek Rose, Derek Rose is back! He only rested for tens of seconds, not even a minute, and returned to the game again!" Reggie Miller slapped the table excitedly: "Man! Absolutely tough guy!"

"I admit that my blood is boiling right now when I see Rose playing, but I still have to say," Kenny Smith knocked on the table, expressionless: "Is it really good for his body if he fights like this now? ?”

Ross was originally injured, which is equivalent to a processor that was already overloaded to the extreme, and now he is running dozens of downloaders. Can he hold on?
