NBA: Start with a three-point experience card

Chapter 518 The last 8 seconds, 1 point behind.

Back from the timeout, the Kings replaced Holmes.

On the defensive end, Holmes plays a bigger role than Mitchell.

The Lakers attack, everyone pulls away and let James attack.

Holmes is the only player in the Kings who can match James' size.

But Holmes' footsteps are slightly slower than James, and it is impossible for him to completely guard against James.

But there is no way around it. The Kings can only use a single defense strategy against James now.

After all, the Lakers are the Big Four, and everyone has super abilities.

If you dare to let go of any one of them to double-team James, the consequences for the Kings will be unbearable.

However, if James is not double-teamed, at this critical moment, James really went inside, which is also very detrimental to the Kings.

But the lesser of two evils!

It's better to let James get to the paint than to open someone else up.

Sure enough, after James dribbled and changed direction, he broke through Holmes and went directly to the inside.

When Bagley came to defend, James pulled the bar for a layup, not only scoring but also causing a foul by Bagley.

The free throw hit chased the point difference to only 4 points.

The hearts of the Kings fans hung again.

Next the Kings attack.

Kings coach Walton removed Holmes and replaced Mitchell.

The Lakers' defense was the same as before, with Westbrook chasing Wang Yi desperately, while the other 4 people formed a formation at one step on both sides of the penalty area.

Going forward can prevent three-pointers, and retreating can prevent restricted areas.

And this time they pay attention to strengthening the defense of the penalty area, and it is impossible for Wang Yi to steal an alley-oop dunk.

Wang Yi kept running, attracting the defense.

And after he attracted a lot of defense, everyone else was more or less open.

Mitchell passes the ball to an open Bagley.

Bagley made a three-pointer with no defense.

Still strike iron.

Looking back, Westbrook grabbed the rebound and launched an attack directly.

When Wang Yi wanted to chase and defend, James suddenly stood in front of Wang Yi, blocking him like a wall.

Although Wang Yi bypassed James, Westbrook had already opened the distance in this way, and it was too late to chase and defend.

Westbrook went straight to the basket, jumped high, and violently dunked the basket.

After landing, he seemed to let out a bad breath, hissing and roaring.

This time, he was finally not blocked by Flying Body.

At this time, there were only 15 seconds left in the time, and the Kings only led by 2 points.

Next, the Lakers will definitely use foul tactics. It is hard to say who will win.

The Lakers called another timeout.

O'Neal on the sidelines analyzed: "Next, the Lakers must implement foul tactics. They must guard against Wang Yi when serving the ball. Don't let Wang Yi get the ball, otherwise Wang Yi's free throw percentage close to 93 this season will make the Lakers The team is very uncomfortable."

Magic Johnson thinks deeply: "It's true. They can't commit the crime to Wang Yi."

Back from the timeout, Hilde served from the outside.

It is very difficult for Wang Yi to catch the ball.

There are two or three people on the Lakers who want to steal the ball from him at any time.

But because he attracts a lot of defense, the Kings' Bagley can easily receive the ball.

The moment Bagley received the ball, Westbrook next to him fouled him.

Bagley executes the free throw.

After all, Bagley is a young player. At such a moment of life and death, there was a huge fluctuation in his heart.

The 1st shot was missed.

This allowed the Lakers to see a chance to tie.

Hearing the regretful exclamations of all the fans at the scene, Bagley looked up at the audience, then at the head coach and Wang Yi.

Then he breathed into his hands and took the ball.

Wang Yi gave Bagley an encouraging look.

Bagley nodded.

This is the first time in his life that he has executed such an important free throw in such an important game.

He must no longer live up to the trust of the boss and let the fans down.

Spread your legs slightly apart, take a deep breath, calm down your emotions, and then pat the ball twice.

Another free throw shot.

when!
Strike the iron again.

Missed two free throws.

He is still too young, and he has too much psychological burden and thinks too much when encountering such a critical free throw.

At this time, the thick eyebrow grabbed the rebound and passed it to James.

The Lakers launched a fast break.

The Kings players retreated quickly.

They did retreat quickly, especially Bagley.

After missing two free throws, he was very upset and wanted to make up for it, so he retreated very quickly.

But because he retreated too quickly, the defense on the three-point line became slack.

After James came to the frontcourt, he saw that Gua Ge was unguarded in front of him, so he directly backed and passed the pass to Gua Ge.

Gua Ge Anthony doesn't care about critical or critical moments.

The so-called society, my brother, doesn't talk too much.

Pull directly after receiving the ball.

Swah——

Hands up and down, hit a three-pointer!

The Lakers lead by 1 points!
At this moment, the Golden No. 1 Center Arena, which was clamoring before, instantly fell silent.

With 8 seconds left in the clock, the Kings trailed by 1 point.

At this moment of life and death, the camera was on Wang Yi.

And stayed on Wang Yi for a long time.

The Kings coach called a final timeout.

The camera followed Wang Yi all the way to the field.

Wang Yi sat down to rest, and the camera kept pointing at him;
Wang Yi was drinking water and the camera was still on him.

Because everyone knows that in the last 8 seconds, the ball will go to Wang Yi.

Wang Yi made 13 last-minute shots in the regular season this season.

He hit 8 of them.

This hit rate ranks first among all players in the league.

So there is no doubt that such a key shot will be given to Wang Yi at a critical moment like Game 3 of the playoffs.

However, it is impossible for the Lakers at this time to give Wang Yi a chance to make a move.

On the commentary, O'Neal continued to analyze: "There is no doubt that the chance of this lore will be given to Wang Yi, but the difficulty for the Kings now is how to let Wang Yi receive the ball. The tactic of letting Wang Yi catch the ball at the critical moment."

Magic Johnson followed up and said: "At such a critical moment, it depends on how the Lakers defend. When Wang Yi receives the ball, do they give Wang Yi a three-point shot or give other Kings players a three-point shot. I think of course they'll give the other Kings guys a chance. After all, the other Kings guys shot 4-for-11 from 2-point range in the fourth quarter."

"As for Wang Yi, he made 13 of 8 shots in the final moments of the season. No one dared to let him shoot at this moment."

O'Neal nodded, and then said: "If the Kings make a quick shot and hit two or three points, the Lakers don't have a timeout, and they can only serve from the backcourt. Then they only have 3 to 5 seconds to dribble to the frontcourt to shoot. .So the Lakers have to draw a fast-break tactic when deploying defense."

at last.

The 2-minute timeout ends and players from both sides play again.
