NBA's No. 1 guard

Chapter 348 Is This a Preview of the Eastern Conference Finals?
The score was 103 to 102, and the Cavaliers had a 1-point advantage.

Overtime is not only about physical strength but also wisdom.

In 5 minutes, many things can be decided.

James missed a three-pointer from the outside, the rebound was protected by Jokic, and the Pacers counterattacked!
Jokic stabilized for a while, and made a long pass directly to George Hill in the frontcourt, that is, he had a wide vision and could find George Hill's position in the first time. George Hill succeeded in eating the cake steadily and scored a layup.

The score was 103 to 104, and the two sides staggered up.

The Cavaliers' transition offense.James hit 2 points again, the Pacers quickly sent the baseline ball, and Xu Xiang chased for a three-pointer!

"Shh!"

105 to 107, the Pacers expanded the score.

"I seem to have seen the Shaq preview of the Eastern Conference Finals?" Barkley said, looking at O'Neal next to him.

Kenny Smith also added, "Who will you support if the Eastern Conference finals are like this?" He was curious.

Barkley rolled his eyes and didn't answer first, "Shaq, what about you?"

O'Neill was silent for a while, "This decision is difficult, I can't say it"

In fact, he prefers the Cavaliers in his heart. The regular season and the playoffs are basically two completely different games. James has so much experience in the playoffs that Xu Xiang and Paojiao can't compare to him.

Moreover, Xu Xiang is the kind of shooting star, and the touch is everything. If he can score 38 points in a single quarter or 60 points in the playoffs, it will be a different situation.

"So. Charles, what about you?" O'Neal asked back.

"I support Indian City!" Barkley expressed his thoughts straightforwardly.

"oh, I know you guys might think that's a risky statement, but I just like the risky feeling"

O'Neal: "."

Are you a donkey ass?Want to do it again?
As a teammate with James, O'Neal deeply understands how strong the little emperor in the playoffs is, and it is precisely because of this that he dare not draw a conclusion early.

The game continued, and the Cavaliers called a timeout. They felt pressured by Xu Xiang's chasing three-pointer, and they had to break his rhythm.

After the timeout, the Cavaliers attacked, and there was not much time left in the game. At 1 minute and 40 seconds, James hit another 2 points, 107 to 107 and evened again!

Xu Xiang kept his composure, changed his attack and directly got an assist from Pickle, and hit a three-pointer from the bottom corner!
With 58 seconds left, the Pacers’ Paojiao missed a three-pointer and the rebound was snatched away by James, who was flying down.

Amidst the boos all over the sky, James missed the first free throw. James' free throw is also a major weakness of his, sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't.

However, the second free throw was a hit.

With a score of 108 to 107, the Cavaliers took the lead.

The Pacers are attacking, with 36 seconds left in the game, they are starting to press the time, and this must be time!
George Hill advanced to the front court, and according to his gestures, everyone started to run, Jokic pulled directly into place, and George Hill passed the ball into his hands with a flick of his small hand.

At this time, TT also came out from the inside defense, firmly in front of Jokic, just when Jokic wanted to pass the ball-"Snap!"

Broken!
James leaped high to steal the ball, and Jokic's attention was all on him, ignoring James who came from the side.

The Pacers made a fatal mistake!

The Cavaliers strike back!
"beep!"

Foul, George Hiller fouls, James goes to the free throw line.

Still the same sentence, if he is labeled as a quick counterattack, the Cavaliers will definitely score two points steadily. Between choices, they can only choose to let him go to the free throw line.

"Bang!"

"Shh!"

It was one of two free throws again, the score was 109 to 107, and the Pacers were two points behind and had the last chance to attack.

There are 23 seconds left in the game.

Exactly the same as the end of the fourth quarter of regular time just now!
"Is this a coincidence? Or?" Barkley asked excitedly. According to this trend, it seems that there may be a second overtime game.

The game is getting better and better.

The Cavaliers called their second timeout, and James said, breathlessly after taking a sip of water,
"They will definitely change their strategy later. Let CJ Miles go, and focus on Xu Xiang and Pickled Pepper."

The Pacers will definitely let Xu Xiang or Paojiao shoot this ball, whether it is a mid-range or a three-pointer!
This judgment is based on his years of experience and the regular time just now.

CJ Myers didn't make a shot just now, so there must be a problem with his mentality.

The Pacers absolutely dare not let him continue to shoot, so it doesn't matter if he lets it go, as long as the defense does not lose his position, it is enough to give him enough pressure so that he has no room to shoot. JR can do this, and James can do it too.

The key is Xu Xiang and pickled peppers.

"Later, Kyrie and I will defend against Xu Xiang, JR and Love will defend against Pickled Pepper, JR and you have another task, which is to pay attention to CJ Miles, and TT to defend. If they want to win now, they only have one choice and that is to shoot a three-pointer. They absolutely don't want to play a second overtime!" James said decisively.

The Pacers didn't want to play the second overtime for sure, so they replaced CJ Miles just like the situation just now.

Xu Xiang served the ball from the sideline. Irving stood in front of him dancing and trying to interfere with his serve, but Xu Xiang played very smartly and directly threw it high into the sky. Jokic, who was in a high position, raised his head over his head to protect immediately after receiving the ball.

He had already suffered a loss once, so he was very cautious in protecting this time. Xu Xiang, CJ Miles, and Paojiao started to move.

Plumlee walled back and forth to help them get space for the shot.

Time passed faster and faster, and before Xu Xiang and the other three ran out of their positions, at this moment, Xu Xiang suddenly ran back and circled back from Plumlee's wall. Owen and James who were following the defense didn't react at once, and Xu Xiang was actually empty in front of him!

This is a very subtle running tactic.

James yelled anxiously, "JR, JR! Over there!"

They could only switch defenses, but everyone's attention was attracted by Xu Xiang. Xu Xiang received the ball openly, and just about to take off, JR had jumped high and tried to defend him!

however--

Xu Xiang suddenly took back, stopped his footsteps, and flicked his wrist. He actually passed the ball!

Who got the ball?
Or CJ Myers!
He had already landed in the bottom corner when everyone was not paying attention, just in time to receive a pass from Xu Xiang, collect the ball, and shoot!
"Shh!"

With 1 second left in the game, the score was 109 to 110, and the Cavaliers were lore!
