Chapter 175
Was tied again.

There are still 3 minutes and 12 seconds left.

It stands to reason that both sides should be steady at this time, call a timeout or something, and let their players take a breather.

But neither Spoel nor Kerr called.

Just like that, they folded their hands and stared at the field.

The two seemed to be angry, and their postures were the same.

But in fact, at this time, the momentum of both sides is almost the same. Whoever calls a timeout is tantamount to breaking the breath that was raised.

and so.

Now let's see who is tough enough.

Whoever can't hold back first will be reduced to a sudden blow, and even ruin the game and the whole effort for this.

And on the field.

Xue Liancheng quickly advanced with the ball.

He has no room to think in his brain now, and is completely immersed in the game.

At this time, his state is very delicate, the blood in his body is boiling, and his attention is highly concentrated.

Or Klay Thompson to lead the defense.

But instead of waving for Gasol to pick and roll, he motioned for PJ Tucker to pull over from the baseline.

The purpose is obvious.

That is to point the list to hit elementary school students.

reason?

Naturally, among all the Warriors on the field, the most bully is the elementary school students.

Curry is 191cm tall and weighs 86kg, nearly 20kg lighter than him.

What is this concept?
Xue Liancheng and Curry stood together, obviously a whole circle older.

Such a disparity in weight, tonnage, and height is enough to give him an absolute advantage.

That's right.

Now is not regular time, but a critical moment, when every ball must be contested, he must ensure his own efficiency, or create better shooting opportunities for his teammates.

The primary school student has an absolute defensive weakness on the field, so he naturally wants to seize this weakness and beat it hard to ensure his absolute advantage.

soon.

PJ-Tucker brought it up.

The narrator was stunned for a moment, "Xue wants to name Stephen?"

The commentator also excitedly said, "It seems so, the two top point guards are going to face each other directly?"

Commentator: "The matchup between the two is naturally a scene that fans love to hear and see, but it is definitely bad news for the Warriors. This ball is very important. Although the Warriors completed a lead last time, they were quickly pulled back. This time they tied. If the ball cannot be defended, it will be a huge blow to their morale. The same is true for the Heat. This ball must be guaranteed to be scored. And Xue is very smart, so he named the weakest link of the Warriors' current defense."

The narrator speaks.

Tucker had already turned slightly to block Thompson's way, and the two of them rubbed shoulders, staggered, and failed to catch up in time.

After Xue Liancheng wiped it over, PJ-Tucker immediately pulled back to the other side.

at this time.

In general, you will choose to switch defenses.

because.

Not only Xue Liancheng has no room for error, the Warriors also cannot make any mistakes.

But here's the problem.

Curry is not Thompson. With this tonnage and weight here, he can barely stop Xue Liancheng from breaking through.

If you switch defenses, Curry's defensive disadvantages will be immediately apparent, and Xue Liancheng will definitely run over him.

The result is obvious.

After all, even if Thompson faced Xue Liancheng, he couldn't take advantage of it, let alone Curry.

It is this problem that exists.

Let the two tacitly choose not to switch defenses.

Curry still went with PJ-Tucker, and Thompson still wanted to chase and defend Xue Liancheng.

The commentator said: "The Warriors made the right choice and didn't switch defenses at this time... Wait, Xue Liancheng seized the opportunity of delay and shot."

But the meaning of pick-and-roll coverage is delay. After Thompson was blocked, he lost his defensive position, and after hitting his shoulder, the delayed position was even greater.

Xue Liancheng seized this fleeting opportunity.

Step back straight away.

Three-point jump.

Curry was about to go after Tucker. When he saw Xue Liancheng's shot, he wanted to pounce on him, but his center of gravity had shifted, leaving him behind.

Thompson lost his defensive position and ran over from the side, and Xue Liancheng retreated to the other side, and he couldn't reach it.

And Xue Liancheng easily got an open chance and a 10% hit rate bonus.

The ball flew into the air.

Everyone was silent.

then.

next second.

Swish.

Xue Liancheng gritted his teeth and clenched his fist lightly, feeling extremely excited.

Pull the point difference back to 3 points again.

The time came to 2 minutes and 58 seconds.

The Heat regained the initiative.

And the commentator expressed it more clearly: "Xue Liancheng is really tough, fully demonstrating the responsibility of the leader, but his most commendable thing is his sense of seizing the opportunity. It is simply amazing. His ability to read the game is too strong. He firmly grasps the space where there is no defense. The Heat regained their position. This ball is too critical..."

The commentator also had to admire, "It's really strong, showing the demeanor of an MVP. Xue has already scored 30 points and 18 assists, which is nearly 30+20! Such a player has not entered the MVP list, and it is really unbelievable."

Cole on the sidelines suddenly became ugly.

This ball was like a nail hammered on the head, and the momentum they had just raised was vented in an instant.

Time is running out.

He finally put down his encircling hands and gestured towards the field.

After Green pushed the ball through half court, he immediately gave it to Curry and ran away.

in this way.

Curry is near the middle circle, one-on-one with PJ Tucker.

And everyone else, except Green at the top of the arc, all shrank back.

The Heat's defensive formation has become a little distorted.

Because at this time, Green's three-point ability is still good, and Gasol didn't dare to let it go, so he raised it, but he was still a step or two away.

This is the real bayonet moment.

According to the previous defensive strategy of the Heat, as long as Curry is close to the three-point line, he will attack.

But because Xue Liancheng and the others were far away, once they chose to attack, they would definitely miss out.

Gasol, on the other hand, has a slow pace and is not a candidate for flanking at all.

and so.

At this time, the Heat are also in a dilemma.

folder?
There may be a huge defensive loophole.

Don't pinch?

With the current bursting state of the primary school student, it is very likely that he will play himself to death.

In a difficult time.

The elementary school students slowly pushed up.

Xue Liancheng also gradually leaned towards the top of the arc.

He thought of such a sentence, the game can be lost, Curry must die.

This is the experience gained by Tyronn Lue, who knows the ball. In fact, it makes sense.

and so.

Seeing that Curry had already rushed to the top of the arc, he finally pounced forward and made a resolute flank attack.

result.

Before he rushed forward.

The elementary school student retreated suddenly, still more than two steps away, Tucker was startled, and rushed forward quickly.

Never thought.

Curry's sway just now was a feint, and he didn't take off at all.

After Tucker flew up, Curry pulled it up and his body was vertical.

Then hit it.

Curry threw the ball after a body collision.

Fortunately, I didn't go in.

at the same time.

The whistle sounded.

beep!
no doubt.

That's a shooting foul.

After landing.

PJ Tucker was so annoyed that he punched hard on his palm.

Obviously.

The elementary school student has scored 4 consecutive three-pointers just now, and he has already become a frightened bird. When he saw Curry retreating, he subconsciously wanted to defend him. It was this kind of tense state that made him make such a serious mistake.

Curry walks to the free throw line.

Three free throws.

All hit steadily.

The commentator, "You come and go, Curry is also very smart, using his strong pressure to make you make mistakes, and now it's tied again, it's really exciting."

Commentator: "Curry scored all three free throws. It's already 41 points. There are still 2 minutes and 41 seconds left. There is still plenty of time."

Sipo on the sidelines was also at this time.

Wipe his forehead.

In fact.

He didn't sweat, it was just a subconscious movement.

But enough to show how anxious he was at this moment.

Now it's really time for superstardom.

Anyone who breaks the attack.

That would be tantamount to handing over victory.

Xue Liancheng didn't notice this, he quickly pushed the ball over.

Still beckoning Tucker to come up for the pick-and-roll.

This time.

Thompson reserved a hand, and went around directly without bumping into Tucker.

But Xue Liancheng also didn't choose a three-pointer, but stepped on the Hot Wheels and went in directly.

Thompson lost his position directly. While chasing hard, he didn't know what was going on, so he subconsciously reached out to grab Xue Liancheng.

Xue Liancheng twisted his body and threw the ball casually.

then.

The whole person fell to the ground with extremely exaggerated movements.

beep!
The referee rang.

At this time, the ball hit the board and entered the frame.

This time.

It was Thompson's turn to be annoyed, holding his head, walking around like a headless chicken, getting into a mess.

At this critical moment, a free 2+1 is given away.

I have the desire to die.

Xue Liancheng walked to the free throw line.

The extra penalty was also hit steadily.

The commentator was amazed, "Xue also scored 33 points, and the Heat led by 3 points again. This kind of response is really too powerful."

Commentator: "The two leading players are really crazy."

There are still 2 minutes and 25 seconds left.

It was Green who held the ball across half court and then gave the ball to Curry.

But Xue Liancheng chose to pinch more resolutely this time, as soon as Curry got the ball, he pinched it.

Curry can only play the ball.

And taking advantage of the time when Curry was out of the ball, he immediately ran back.

Green also didn't make a strong attack, but chose to give Thompson on the weak side.

At this time, Batum stood between Thompson and Iguodala. Now that Thompson has the ball, Batum pressed up without hesitation.

Thompson missed the shot, and then passed to Iguodala who cut in.

And this time.

As expected, Gasol returned to the basket to make up for Iguodala.

Iguodala didn't dare to be tough, and then passed to Green at the top of the arc.

At this time, Xue Liancheng had already returned, and it was Green who was marking him.

So full circle.

It is tantamount to wasting effort.

Here I have to say that Gasol Jr. has a really good defensive awareness and is very particular about his positioning. He is not far away from Green, but also presses at the corner of the free throw line to help Batum share the defensive pressure.

And after seeing Xue Liancheng running back, he immediately returned to the basket to block Thompson's breakthrough route, and was keen to prevent Iguodala from cutting in.

In the end, the Warriors' pass and cut cooperation was futile.

Green can only be lucky at the top of the arc.

The Warriors started running here.

Green's vision is still very good. Seeing Iguodala cross from the flank and get rid of the defense, he gave it immediately.

And Curry in the bottom corner, covered by Barnes, slipped into the basket again.

Iguodala made another pass.

In the end, Curry pulled the bar against Gasol and seemed to throw it casually.

Even entered.

The point difference was pulled back to 1 point.

There are still 2 minutes and 08 seconds left.

Curry's scoring has reached 43 points.

In the final quarter alone, he scored 21 points.

Simply horrible.

Who dares to underestimate this explosive scoring power?

Look back.

Xue Liancheng still named Curry.

His current plan is to eat elementary school students.

only.

This time.

The Warriors adjusted their defensive strategy again, and Thompson and Curry directly flanked Xue Liancheng.

Xue Liancheng clearly showed the movements of the two in his mind, and immediately threw the ball to Tucker.

After playing the ball.

The elementary school students will undoubtedly jump to make up for it, and almost everyone's attention is also diverted to follow the ball.

This is a half-empty opportunity.

It stands to reason, can cast.

But after Xue Liancheng took the ball, he went straight into the penalty area like a sharp sword.

Tucker immediately hit the ground and passed back.

Faced with such a sudden movement, Thompson was already half a body behind when he reacted, and he had to catch up with Xue Liancheng.

Xue Liancheng took two steps after receiving the ball, and when the Warriors were defending against the future, he made a small throw.

2 points.

Enter again.

The commentator was very excited, "It's so exciting, the confrontation between the two leading stars is definitely one of the rare and famous scenes in recent years."

Commentator: "You come and go, you don't give in to each other, each of them has shown eighteen kinds of martial arts, playing like a tiger and a tiger."

Commentator: "The offensive abilities of both are too strong. Curry is a pure firepower output, while Xue Liancheng is a master at seizing opportunities. This is destined to be a game that fans will talk about."

Commentator: "That's right, Curry has 43 points, and Xue Liancheng also has 35 points and 18 assists. This is the collision of top stars, it is simply wonderful."

Commentator: "The game has come to the last 1 minute and 50 seconds, and the Heat are still leading by 3 points. Everything can happen."

And before the commentator's voice fell.

Thompson has already pushed the ball over, directly by surprise, to a mid-range.

pity.

No.

Ibaka protected the rebound and passed it to Xue Liancheng.

At this time, the Warriors were not on a firm footing.

The opportunity is here.

Xue Liancheng let go of his feet and ran wildly.

After stepping into the three-point line, he took two steps against Barnes, attracting Curry's attention, and immediately gave it to Tucker who cut in from the other side.

Tucker rushed to the basket and hit the board.

Enter again.

Commentator: "At 1 minute and 35 seconds, the Heat led by 5 points. Clay handled the ball a little sloppily."

The commentator also secretly sighed, "This ball is deadly!"

Commentator: "The most important thing is that Xue Liancheng is calm enough and didn't force himself. If it were another star with such a fiery touch, he would have come by himself, but there is no doubt that assisting Tucker to score is the right choice. By the way... How many assists does Xue have now?"

The commentator glanced at the statistics, "It's already 19 assists, amazing!"

Commentator: "35+19, it's really hard to imagine that such an outstanding star is not included in the MVP discussion."

This time.

Cole finally couldn't hold back and called a timeout.

And all members of the Heat breathed a sigh of relief.

The score just now kept pulling back and forth, putting their hearts into their throats. Now that the point difference has been pulled to 5 points, it is already a safe distance, allowing them to take a breather.

But Spoelstra didn't think so, "Now is the real critical moment. When you meet Curry, double-team immediately, don't have the slightest hesitation, and...now is definitely not the time to relax, we are not qualified to relax."

After everyone listened, they couldn't help but shudder, and raised their hearts again.

indeed.

Time seems to be running out now.

But Curry's crazy three-pointer is still in front of him. Once it is fired, the lethality will definitely kill them in seconds.

and……

The Warriors have another guy who is crazy, and Klay Thompson should not be underestimated.

Where do they have the qualifications to relax.

The game restarts.

Players from both sides entered the field and began to stand in positions.

Xue Liancheng looked at the position of the Warriors, and suddenly his eyebrows twitched wildly.

Barnes and Green are on both sides of the free throw line, while Thompson is under the basket, Iguodala is at the top of the three-point line, and Curry, a primary school student, is serving the ball.

This is so...

Isn't it the prototype of the elevator door tactic?

I boil...

It’s really useless, it’s amazing once it’s used!

In this game, the Warriors also deployed this tactic in the first quarter, but they failed to score twice.

and so.

This tactic seems to have been forgotten.

But now the Warriors are moving it out again.

Obviously trying to create opportunities for Curry.

Xue Liancheng remained calm and walked over to Ibaka, "Let's switch defenses."

Ibaka froze for a moment. Although he was full of doubts, he nodded and ran to guard Barnes.

The game restarts.

Sure enough, Curry served to Iguodala.

After serve.

Sure enough, slipped the bottom line.

After completing the off-ball screen with Thompson, Curry ran back and rushed to the wall.

And Thompson pulled the bottom line.

Xue Liancheng remained calm on the surface, guarding Iguodala's breakthrough route, but he was ecstatic in his heart.

really.

Curry rushed through the human wall, and the human wall quickly closed, directly blocking Ibaka, Gasol Jr., and Tucker who was chasing him.

Iguodala also pretended to adjust the rhythm.

Then suddenly raised his hand.

But in Xue Liancheng's view, it was not sudden at all.

He has long been ready, like a Jaguar ready to go.

When Iguodala tilts the ball and flips it out.

Xue Liancheng has already rushed over.

Steal the ball straight away.

Then spread his feet and run.

Both Iguodala and Curry were stunned, what's going on?
There is no time to doubt life, hurry to chase.

The speed of the two is still very fast.

Even though Xue Liancheng took the first step, but because he had to adjust after he got the ball, and he had to dribble, the two ran empty.

So at the free throw line, he was still caught up.

But Xue Liancheng didn't stop, and forced the two of them to move forward.

then.

Rushing directly to the basket, Iguodala and Curry were stunned.

what's the situation?
Where's the ball?

And when they came back to their senses.

This was discovered.

Ibaka, who followed, has already taken off.

Successful dunk.

7 points difference.

There are still 1 minutes and 20 seconds left.

The Oracle Center was silent.

Everyone was holding their heads, and the despair on their faces had grown and spread rapidly.
