I'm really not a superstar

Chapter 280 The last 48 seconds (it's the end of the month, please subscribe and reward)

With only 48 seconds left, the Rockets only led by 2 points.

This is an extremely dangerous score, and a three-pointer can reverse the lead.

The Rockets called for a timeout, and the pressure was undoubtedly on their side.

Now the Staples Center is full of cheers, their momentum has risen, and they must continue to fight.

The success rate of the next ball must be hit, and the rhythm can be slowed down as much as possible. In any case, the Lakers cannot be given a chance to continue their momentum.

The Rockets served, and as soon as McGrady received the ball, he was frantically pressed by Jordan Farmar.

In order to maintain the vitality and defensive aggressiveness of the Lakers, Farmar replaced Fisher, who was almost exhausted.

McGrady's stamina was about to be exhausted, and under the crazy pressure of the opponent, he was a little shaky.

Dorsey hurried over to respond, and he didn't dare to be careless this time.

With Dorsey's support, the ball passed the half without any risk.

It took only 6 or 7 seconds to pass halftime, and almost 8 seconds were violated.

After halftime, facing the half-court position where the Lakers strictly defended, the Rockets were also a little helpless.

The reason for the delay in launching an offense is because they couldn't find a good route to the ball, but it also played an objective role in delaying time.

Seeing that only the last few seconds are left, the Rockets can only bite the bullet and pass the ball to the inside.

Yao Ming caught the ball and immediately walked into a double-team.

Dayao couldn't turn around, so he had to return the ball back the same way again.

But time is running out, and there is no room for McGrady to reorganize the offense, so he can only bite the bullet and make a shot.

McGrady used his last strength to pull up the jumper, and Farmer's hand had been sealed to his face, covering his eyes.

McGrady almost made hard shots when he couldn't see the basket.

The ball hit the basket hard and bounced out. Yao was very active, and immediately went down to the basket to grab a rebound after passing the ball.

He also played his life, trying his best to grab the position with Bynum, and at the same time exerted his almost negligible jumping ability to the extreme.

The ball was taken by him!

Just as he was overjoyed, he was about to jump up to make a tip-up again, but suddenly there was a sharp pain in his feet, and he let out a miserable cry, and fell to the ground.

But until he fell to the ground, he was still holding the basketball tightly in his hand.

Gasol didn't care so much, and hurried to the strong ball in Dayao's hands.

While enduring the severe pain in his feet, Dayao tried his best to protect the ball in his hand.

The referee's whistle sounded, not a foul, but a foul ball!
The Rockets were very dissatisfied with this penalty. It was obvious that Yao was in control of the ball. After he was injured and fell to the ground, Gasol only started to grab it. How could a scrimmage be called!

However, no one was in the mood to argue with the referee, because everyone found that Dayao, who was lying on the ground, was in great pain, his face was pale with Chinese characters, and beads of sweat came out of Dou Da!

His fractured foot was stepped on by Bynum!

The news of Dayao's bone fracture has never been announced to the public, so the audience thought he was just stepped on. As for pretending to be so painful?
Suddenly boos broke out in the stands.

But the Rockets all know how bad it is. A 285-pound (129-kilogram) strong man jumped up and stepped on Dayao's bone fracture, which will definitely aggravate the injury, or there may be direct dislocation and fractures. possible!

The team doctor Keith Jones hurried forward to check. Although the specific situation cannot be diagnosed yet, this game must not be played!
Dayao was helped to the sidelines by Scola and Dorsey. He refused Keith Jones' request to go back to the locker room for inspection immediately. Instead, he sat on the sidelines enduring severe pain. He wanted to watch the last moment of the game .

At least watch these dozens of seconds.This is the rocket's last chance.

If they can't win, even if it goes to overtime, the Rockets without the inside pillar and spiritual leader must be in bad luck.

Shane Battier replaced Yao Ming, Dorsey played center, and Metta World Peace came to shooting guard.

Since Dayao was injured and unable to continue playing, Dorsey came to compete with Gasol.

This scramble for the ball is very likely to determine the trend of the game.

Gasol is 10 centimeters taller than Dorsey, but Dorsey's bounce is far better than the other's. Both of them are fully focused and their eyes are fixed on the ball.

The Staples Center also fell into a brief silence, and everyone waited with bated breath for the result of the jump ball.

As soon as the ball was thrown, Gasol jumped up immediately, but Dorsey on the opposite side of him seemed to be stepping on a spring. With a swipe, he jumped faster, cuter, and higher.

Dorsey's hand touched the ball earlier than Gasol's. He had already seen the position and put the ball into McGrady's hands.

Everyone on the Lakers team felt a sinking heart, and secretly shouted: something is wrong!

Tracy McGrady gets the ball and immediately dribbles away where no one is around, like a football linebacker.

Farmar, who was facing him, was a little inexperienced, so he hesitated.

"Don't stand still, you're going to make a foul!" Kobe roared, flew over, and slapped McGrady twice.

The referee whistle sounded, foul!
However, in this way, it successfully consumed a few seconds.

This is the fifth foul of the Lakers this quarter, McGrady made a free throw!

Foul tactics are double-edged swords, kill 20 enemies and lose [-]!But now I have to use this trick, because there are only [-] seconds left!
McGrady went to the free throw line.

He was greeted by noises like storms and waves.

There was a lot of humiliation and abuse in it.

"You loser! Go home and recuperate!"

"You are now a role player at best in the Rockets!"

"You jerk, the Rockets can't get anything from you!"

"The gap between you and Kobe is as big as an ant and a lion!"

……

McGrady looked calm, quietly watching the basket in front of him.

He has lost too much, and now the opportunity to get it back is in front of him.

If he loses, he may never get rid of the label of a loser for the rest of his life.

But if he enters, he will have the opportunity to change the world's perception of him.

McGrady took a deep breath, shot, the ball drew a wonderful arc, and flew into the basket amidst deafening noise, and the sound of friction with the net was extremely pleasant.

The first free throw was scored.

The noise in the arena is louder, and the personal attacks are more violent.

But McGrady withstood the pressure, threw the second ball and still hit it!

Made two free throws!

The point difference widened to 4 points.

The Lakers called for a timeout, and they chased 20 points in 4 seconds. It was difficult, but it was not impossible.

After all, McGrady on the opposite side once staged a miracle of 35 seconds and 13 minutes.

And the Lakers have a better Kobe!
The Lakers are almost a clear card. Kobe will definitely attack, it must be a quick break, and there is a high probability that it will be a three-pointer!

The whole world knows how the Lakers will play, it depends on whether the Rockets can defend.

The Lakers put up a long snake formation when serving.

As soon as Bynum served the ball, the four players on the field immediately scattered like a goddess.

Kobe used Gasol's cover to bypass Dorsey and received the ball from outside the three-point line. Ci Shiping rushed over, but Kobe didn't care about the defenders in front of him. The obvious stagnation seems to be an adjustment of the angle in mid-air.

Kobe's stagnation in the air made Ci Shiping feel that he could cover it, and was about to reach out to shoot.

McGrady's voice suddenly sounded: "Be careful, he is making a foul!"

As a genius, McGrady is the person who knows Kobe best.

The sound of stopping drinking was like enlightenment, making Ci Shiping's hand that was about to slap it out abruptly stopped.

Kobe really wanted to draw a foul, because three free throws must be more sure than a hasty three-pointer.

But Ci Shiping was not fooled, Kobe had no choice but to make a move.

In order to wait for Ci Shiping to foul, Kobe had been in the air for too long, and it was a bit late to take the shot at this time.

But the ball went out anyway, Kobe believed it would go in, the crowd at Staples Center believed it, and Kobe fans all over the world believed it.

But suddenly a big man jumped up behind Ci Shiping, and slapped the fans' fantasies and dreams away.

It's Dorsey, when did he come here? !And it jumps so high!Just out of gravity!

At this moment, the Staples Center was suffocated, and everyone was dumbfounded. Kobe's three-pointer at a critical moment was slapped away by this rookie!

It's not just the ball that flies, it's also the Lakers' hope of winning and advancing!

Everyone was stunned at this moment, and the players on the field stayed in place as if they had been immobilized.

McGrady was the first to react. He was on the outside, closest to the ball, rushed up, dribbled towards the Lakers basket.

The Lakers just woke up like a dream, and rushed to chase like crazy.

McGrady also exhausted all his strength to charge forward, and he could already hear the panting of the pursuers behind him.

McGrady ran wildly not to score goals, but to avoid the Lakers, delay their fouls, and buy more time for the Rockets.

But as soon as he reached the basket, it would be best to score a goal!

McGrady jumped up, at this moment he felt that his body had never been so light, as if he had returned to the year when the Magic became the scoring leader!
A few big hands behind him patted his body at the same time, making his body shake, but it didn't change the trajectory of his flying to the basket.

"boom"

The ball hit the basket hard, and the referee's whistle sounded at the same time!
2+1!

McGrady made the free throw.

McGrady nailed the last nail in the coffin of the Lakers!
8 seconds and 7 minutes is already an insurmountable gap!

Although the tenacious Kobe hit another three-pointer at the last moment, he was powerless after all.

In the end, the Rockets defeated the Lakers 113:109 and won the life-and-death "tie-break" at the Staples Center!
