The world of basketball

Chapter 159

Playing at such a slow pace, the two teams will probably be at a stalemate throughout the game, unless one team makes a mistake or makes a mistake.

This indicates that the next second and third quarters will be played very badly, but when the last 5 minutes of the fourth quarter, which is the star moment, will be played very well.

Because the scores of the two teams increased slowly in the second and third quarters, it was really boring, but in the second half of the fourth quarter, the scores of the two teams were relatively close, and this is the time for the stars to play. All kinds of hero balls at the last critical moment will conquer the fans, stimulate the brains of the fans, let the fans' adrenaline soar, and the blood circulation will be accelerated.

So that's how the second and third quarters went.In the last minute of the fourth quarter, both teams tied with 1 points.

It's hard to imagine a game where the two teams tied with 1 points in the last minute after the NBA changed the rules on offensive rebounding and deliberately accelerated the pace of the game.

Butler just hit a three-pointer to tie the game, and the fans' emotions are still in high spirits, but it's between ten and ten.Thunder fast serve.Westbrook took two steps away from a 45° angle, directly caught and shot for three seconds, and the ball fell into the net.The Thunder once again led by three points.

Westbrook, who was very determined throughout the game, hit a 45-degree angle ultra-long-range three-pointer at the last moment to help the team lead by three points.

Maybe this is the superstar.Regardless of their state throughout the game, they will still stand up and lead the team to victory in the end.

The Spurs' home court, which had just begun to boil, suddenly became silent as if a basin of cold water had been poured on it.

In 57 seconds, the Spurs sent the ball to the backcourt. Jeremy Lin received the ball and ran straight to the frontcourt, bypassing Westbrook's full-court press. , Mu Xiaobei received a pass from Jeremy Lin outside the arc top three-point line, and then no one was running tactics this time, Mu Xiaobei pulled it up directly, and Adams was shaken with the range of Mu Xiaobei's movements.

Then, Mu Xiaowei accelerated towards the basket, Grant walked to the basket and took a good position, Mu Xiaobei jumped up high, looked at Grant's feet and saw a dunk.

After typing two points, Grant complained to the referee, but the referee signaled that there was no offensive foul in the reasonable collision zone.

Yes, even when he was about to dunk, Mu Xiaobei glanced at Grant's feet rationally.In fact, if it weren't for the sluggish state of the home fans, he probably wouldn't have chosen a dunk.After the dunk was successful, he didn't celebrate, and he didn't wave his hands at the fans to mobilize the fans' emotions. Instead, he lowered his head and returned to the defense.She is such a person.

But even if they are still behind by a point, the home fans are still in high spirits, cheering and shouting the name of their team.

Westbrook quickly pushed to the frontcourt, and then made a sharp change of direction to hit Jeremy Lin's horse-riding archery throw. He missed the goal, and the ball bounced out of the basket. Mu Xiaobei received the rebound.

"Wei Shao's choice of this ball is very irrational. They are leading by one point now, and I think he should kill time now. Play a success rate instead of rushing the shot to give the Spurs a chance to counterattack." Wang Meng said.

"Maybe this is also Westbrook's game habits. He thinks this is a good opportunity. In fact, he almost scored the goal just now." Su Qun defended Westbrook. In fact, domestic commentators always do this.In order not to offend the fans of many players, they probably will not choose to say some critical or radical words.

Jeremy Lin's handling seemed a lot calmer. When he dribbled outside, he just dribbled the ball and waited on the spot, and then looked at Popovich on the bench, waiting for Popovich to give orders.

Popovich made a complicated gesture, Jeremy Lin nodded and patted his chest to show that he understood, and then called Mu Xiaobei to pick and roll at the top of the arc. Now it seems that Jeremy Lin holds the ball and Mu Xiaobei picks and rolls at the top of the arc. Initiated.

The attack time passed little by little, and the Spurs players on the court seemed not in a hurry. Butler and Belinelli made a cross screen, and then Belinelli came out, Jeremy Lin, and the ball was passed to Belinelli. Xiaobei immediately followed suit.

Adams was still a bit slow, not keeping up with Mu Xiaobei's footsteps. Belinelli, a high throw with a good amount of lead, just landed on Mu Xiaobei's chest, and Mu Xiaobei dunked the ball.

The Spurs led by one point, and the Thunder requested a final timeout.

The home fans were excited again.Today, Mu Xiaobei's two dunks brought the score back for the team.

Of course, it's still too early to say these things. After all, there are still 34 seconds before the end of the game. The Thunder don't know whether they will grab one or play a steady, high-shooting offense.

Popovich guessed that Westbrook's character would probably snatch one, so he arranged tactics, which probably meant to try his best to force Westbrook to take shots from the outside instead of letting him go inside.Once Westbrook gets to the inside, Mu Xiaobei immediately releases Adams to double-team Westbrook, and then Kuzma will rotate defenses in a timely manner to help Mu Xiaobei defend Adams.

The Thunder quickly served the ball, Westbrook quickly pushed and then changed direction, passing Jeremy Lin, but Jeremy Lin did not lose much position, and still kept his footsteps to defend Westbrook.

In fact, many times, the last attack will be given to Paul George now, because he is really incomprehensible on the offensive end, but today I don’t know why, it seems that Westbrook insists on executing this last attack, oh no, it is the penultimate attack.

Then Adams went to the free throw line and made a block for Westbrook, and Westbrook made a classic zombie jumper.

Up to now this season, it is rare to see Westbrook ending the offense with a zombie jumper, but his shooting rate of this jumping method has increased instead.In the first three seasons, that is, the season when Westbrook won the mvp, his zombie jump shot percentage was only 40%, but this season has risen to 46%.

Yes, his zombie jumper near the free throw line and his rim finish within three seconds are some of his few high-percentage finishes.

But this time luck was not on his side, and Westbrook's zombie jumper missed the bullet.Mu Xiaobei pushed Adams against the rebound with his not-so-wide buttocks.

Westbrook took seven seconds for this attack, yes, it only took seven seconds, so there are still 30 seconds in the game.Jeremy Lin was not in a hurry to dribble the ball steadily from the outside. He was going to hit a success rate and give the final time to the Thunder.

Then with Mu Xiaobei's pick-and-roll, Jeremy Lin made a direct shot from outside the three-point line with seven seconds left in the game. Like a cold sword, the ball crossed an arc and fell towards the basket.

Oh no, the ball missed this time.

But, but, but!

Like a divine soldier descending from the sky, Kuzma shot out from the oblique stab and hit the basket. With a light touch, the ball hit the board and fell into the basket.

brush--

The Spurs scored another two points, widening the point difference to the advantage of a three-pointer. That is to say, no matter whether the Thunder succeeded in the last attack or not, the Spurs were out of danger of losing.
