Chapter 552 The Shock of Three Overtimes
At the end of the game, the Lakers won the game again at their home court. With the counterattack Gao Chao in the last quarter, the Lakers finally defeated their opponents 108:97. Although it seems that the score is not close, but in fact the process Only the players of the Lakers know how difficult it is. Their exhaustion in this game is much more difficult than the most difficult game of the first round of four games. Ye Xuan also played very hard in this game, playing 39 times. In the end, Ye Xuan scored 41 points, 7 rebounds and 11 assists in this game alone, and almost single-handedly withstood the indiscriminate bombing of the Spurs in the first three quarters.

However, Ye Xuan's 41 points was not the best individual performance today, because there were two [-]-plus players on the field next door.After the game between the Pacers and the Spurs, the game between the Pacers and the Cavaliers started immediately, and everyone did not expect that this game would be so difficult.

In the first game of the second round, the Cavaliers were hit by a quasi-lore shot by Pickle in the regular season, and then dragged into overtime. As a result, in the overtime, the Cavaliers' physical strength Falling into a crisis, he could only watch helplessly as the victory slowly slipped away from his hands.After losing this game, the Cavaliers also learned from the pain, and made more changes in the rotation during the second match.

And Deron Williams, who got enough playing time, also played pretty well in this game. At least when the benches played for a while, he successfully helped James and Irving share a lot of pressure, but the Cavaliers The team still played very difficult in this game. The scoring efficiency of the two teams in the first two quarters was not very high. At the end of the half, the Pacers only scored 42 points, while the Cavaliers only scored 46 points. But after all, the Cavaliers are still in the lead.

In the second half, the feel of the two teams began to gradually pick up. The Pacers, because of the high playing time of Paojiao and Ibaka, may have to suffer in terms of physical fitness. Te McMillan's substitutions were also very quintessential. Using the vitality of Myles Turner and Louis Williams, he successfully survived the second half of the third quarter, which was the easiest to comeback. Owen's physical exertion was relatively high for the Cavaliers in the game. Lao Zhan played for 8 and a half minutes, but Irving played directly for 12 minutes and played the entire quarter. In the end, he failed to help the team expand the lead. At the end of the third quarter, the Pacers were still only 5 points behind, which kept the suspense of the game until the last quarter.

In the last quarter of the game, the substitutes of the two teams played for two to three minutes, and then replaced all their main players. Of course, the big brothers James and Paojiao of the two teams played at the beginning of the fourth quarter. It was replaced in time.But the duel between the two did not change the situation much in the end. When the Pacers played until the last 3 minutes of the game, they suddenly caught the cooperation of the inside TT and Love. He made a mistake, made two consecutive easy layups in the interior, and instantly narrowed the point difference to 2 points. Then on the defensive end, Ibaka rewarded Irving with a big hat, which made the Cavaliers feel a little bit in an instant. They were terrified. After all, at such a critical moment, sudden problems on the offensive end were the last thing they wanted to see. In the last game, after leading the whole game, they were defeated by their opponent at the last critical moment. Hit the three-pointer to tie the game, thus exhausting himself in overtime.

The Cavaliers don't want this to happen again in this game, but the Pacers are just the opposite. They were inspired by the ball, and they all wanted to make a comeback like the previous game. After blocking the ball, The Cavaliers served from the sideline, and Lao Zhan's singles with the ball at the top of the arc eventually caused a foul by Myles Turner, but at this time, Lao Zhan made a mistake that he regretted. He was first at the free throw line. The penalty is missed, and this penalty is a big difference. There is still one minute left in the game, and now my team is only leading by two points. If they can make both free throws, then the Cavaliers will lead With four points, the Pacers need at least two rounds to chase points. This is an absolute advantage for the Cavaliers, but now they lead by three points. If the opponent hits a three-pointer, the two teams will be tied. This will look less stable for the Cavaliers.

It's a pity that the first free throw was missed in the end, and Lao Zhan could only sigh. However, he made the second free throw and he hit it steadily. The Pacers immediately called a timeout to arrange the next round attack.The timeout ended soon. The Pacers served from the sideline. All the players on the field have been replaced by players who can shoot three-pointers. The only insider, Ibaka, also has a very good three-point shooting ability. After two After the second down, Pickled Pepper finally received the ball against all odds. Rose and Lu Wei were in ambush in the corners on both sides, while Ibaka came up to help Pickled Pepper with the pick-and-roll, and Hood was in the middle of nowhere. Stopped running, trying to disrupt the Cavaliers' defensive formation, but in fact he also succeeded. After passing the pick-and-roll, Paojiao cooperated with Hood's running position and successfully confused the Cavaliers' defense. And Pickled Pepper also took the opportunity to distribute the ball to Lu Wei in the left corner. Louis Williams made a three-pointer when he pulled it up. Defensive, so naturally hit steadily.

101:101!The two teams were tied again with 35 seconds left in the game, and the game entered the most exciting and exciting part of winning or losing with a single shot.The Cavaliers immediately called a timeout, hoping to hit the offense steadily.After the timeout ended, the Cavaliers served in the front court and prepared to make their final attack. After Lao Zhan received the ball and held the ball at the top of the arc, he began to press the time. Obviously, he was going to press the time until the last moment before attacking. When the countdown was 7 seconds, Lao Zhan Zhan started to move. After the two crotches changed hands, he took two steps inward, and then pulled up directly on the spot to force a two-point shot. Under the interference of pickled peppers, the ball finally ended in a strike. He came down, and then called a timeout to arrange his final attack. Obviously, the current initiative has been controlled by the Pacers.

But after the timeout ended, the remaining 11 seconds of the Pacers' offensive time did not bring the Pacers a score. Pickle's final buzzer shot also failed to hit. It became a 101 tie, so they could only play overtime.

This is also the second time in a row that they have entered overtime. In the last game, the Cavaliers only used eight players, so there was an obvious problem with their physical strength in the final overtime. The Raptors took it away directly in overtime, and this time, they used a ten-man rotation in regular time. Calderon, who didn't get a chance to play in the previous game, also played. Poor, waiting for others to play has also become longer, so today's Cavaliers' physical strength is not a problem, and the Pacers' own substitutes are not weak, so it is naturally a multi-person rotation strategy. 37 minutes is considered very high.

In overtime, the two teams were still playing hard to separate. At the beginning, the Cavaliers scored five points in a row and gained a certain advantage, but then the Pacers immediately continued to use their internal and external skills. After 7 and a half minutes of overtime, the two teams tied again. The two teams scored a total of 0 points in the four and a half minutes, and one side scored 4 points. , this scoring efficiency is already considered good in overtime, and in the last half minute, the two teams entered the lore stage again, but this time, the scene in regular time reappeared, first the Cavaliers side The lore failed, and then the Pacers also failed to hit the lore, 26 tied, and the two teams could only enter the second overtime.

After entering the second overtime game, the Pacers' team's ability to play the main force gradually became apparent, which also allowed them to occupy some of the top spots in the game. Louis Williams The performances of James and Myles Turner after they were replaced were also remarkable, even scoring 2 points in the first 7 minutes of overtime while leaving the Cavaliers without a point.

Just when everyone saw this and thought that the Cavaliers' game might end in a loss, Lao Zhan stood up again, first scored two points with a layup after a breakthrough, and then used fake moves to cause Yi Ibaka's foul. At this time, Ibaka has already committed the fifth foul. It is very likely that he will be sent off for another foul. James' performance is not over yet. He has already scored 45 points. The steal was successful, and in the fast break, he assisted George Hill to hit a key three-pointer, chasing the point difference back, and at this time there was 1 minute left in the second overtime game.

The critical moment still depends on the core players. At this time, the two teams each played a good ball for 2 minutes, and the boss of the Pacers, Paojiao, finally broke out. First, he hit a three-pointer against Lao Zhan's defense, and then On the defensive end, he gave George Hill a big hat, which instantly put the Pacers in an absolute leading position. At this time, the Cavaliers once again entered the final attack, the situation of winning or losing. Lao Zhan's three-pointer today The hit rate is not very good, so although Lao Zhan is holding the ball at the top of the arc, everyone thinks that the last shot should be someone else. Sure enough, Lao Zhan still chooses to take the ball when there are about 12 seconds left in the attack time. The offensive opportunity was given to Irving, and Irving is also a big heart. After completing the touching lore in the last finals, this time he hit a three-pointer at the buzzer again at almost the same position. After this three-pointer, The point difference between the two teams was tied again, and the attack time was only 0.9 seconds. Without a timeout, the Pacers had no chance to attack at this time. They could only barely send the ball, and the game was over. , the two teams can only enter the third overtime.

At this time, the two teams have reached a 124 tie. Lao Zhan has scored 45 points, 14 rebounds and 12 assists at this time. Super triple-double data, and Irving also scored 32 points.As for the Pacers, the highest scorer is naturally Pickle. After hitting the three-pointer, Pickle's score has reached 49 points in this game, and he also got a quasi-triple-double data, 49 points and 11 points. The data of 6 rebounds and [-] assists is also quite gorgeous.

After a whole game and two overtime games, the physical strength of the two teams began to be in crisis, especially for the Cavaliers. Lao Zhan has played for 49 minutes, and Irving has also played. In 47 minutes, the two could only persist with will in the third overtime.And the Pacers are similar. Pickled Pepper played 47 minutes, and his physical strength declined seriously. Although Ibaka is not the core, he also played 42 minutes. Other players such as Rose and Hood also played. Nearly four and ten minutes.

The third overtime game started in an instant, and the audience couldn't help shouting, and the players on the field were basically at their limit. Fortunately, the third overtime game started less than a minute ago. Time, the game turned around. Irving used the pick-and-roll to go inside and caused Ibaka's foul. This is also Ibaka's sixth foul. So after this foul, Ibaka can only be replaced. The Pacers' inside line suddenly fell into crisis, while the Cavaliers have been playing soy sauce. Love, who didn't play much, stood up in this overtime game. First, he grabbed the lead after Lao Zhan missed a shot. rebound, and then passed it back to Lao Zhan to help him score a mid-range shot, and then he hit a three-pointer himself to help the Cavaliers gradually open the score. The rate dropped severely. Ross and Pickled Pepper each hit an iron to give the Cavaliers a chance to open the score. Although the Pacers also used a breakthrough to beat TT, their time and physical strength were not enough for them to continue. persisted.

In the end, Lao Zhan went through several tests of foul tactics and led the Cavaliers to victory in the most difficult playoffs in history. 132:129, in the last 5 minutes, the Pacers only scored 5 points, and the Cavaliers only scored 8 points, but it was this three-point gap that made the Cavaliers finally win at home. It secured the victory of the game and tied the big score at 1:1.
