Chapter 173

"Come on guys~ There are only 46 seconds left~ In less than 1 minute, we can enjoy the cheers of victory!" Mike Brown cheered from the side.

"Break up your spirits! Tonight, we must put out the Miami Heat!" Kobe wiped his sweat with a towel, and said in a calm voice with a touch of indisputability.

"Tang, you performed well tonight. If you can win, you may have to accompany Kobe to the post-game press conference." Paul Gasol suddenly said as he walked past Tang Qian.

"Post-match press conference?" Tang Qian was stunned, because he really hadn't thought about this problem.

Seeing Tang Qian's dazed expression, the Spaniard chuckled and said, "Don't worry, think about it after you win the game."

When the timeout was over and he was about to re-appear, a female voice came into Tang Qian's ears and said:
"Don, come on~ You guys will definitely win tonight~"

Tang Qian looked back, then nodded slightly in one direction, as if saying, don't worry, I will try my best to do it.

Beep ~ With a sound, the Los Angeles Lakers played against the Miami Heat, and the last 46 seconds kicked off.

The score between the two sides was 104-102, and the Lakers temporarily led by 2 points.

Because the Heat's athletic ability is too strong, the Lakers did not adopt the whole court to force the defense, but all waited in the backcourt, waiting for the arrival of the Miami players.

Ci Shiping led the defense against James.

Anyway, there was not much time left in the game, and Metta Shiping didn't intend to spare any more effort. She bent her body and slightly bent her knees, as if preparing to fight LeBron James to the end.

James slowly dribbled the ball. He observed the entire half court. The Lakers' defense was very tight. In addition to Ci Shiping coming out to defend him from the outside line, Kobe also entangled Dwyane Wade tightly. Matt Barnes followed Shane Battier.The inside line is the twin towers Gasol and Tang Qian, guarding the basket together.

Twin towers?After a little observation, James made a decision. When his dribbling right hand stopped, he raised his hand and stuffed the basketball out.

Destination, straight. Insert the Lakers' left corner three-point line.

And standing there is No. 13 of the Heat, Mike Miller.

Aren't you going to play Twin Towers Tactics?Then I'll use outside firepower to kill you guys!

James' idea is very clear, to make a big fuss by taking advantage of the fact that the twin towers are usually difficult to expand defense.

Because of Mike Miller's three-point shooting skills, James is very relieved. After all, the former's career average three-point shooting rate exceeds 40%, the highest season even reached 48%, and this season exceeded 45%. These are a series of extremely reliable figures.Taking advantage of the movement problem of the twin towers, it should not be difficult to make a time difference.

Mike Miller himself thinks the same way, as long as he shoots an open three-pointer, he doesn't think he will lose to anyone in the league.

How can I say that when I was young, I was also a man who cut 18+5+4, so I still have some psychological confidence.

In addition, Mike Miller is 203cm tall. A pitcher with this height has a higher release point than the average person, so he is more stable and cannot be interfered by the opponent's defense.

LeBron James' vision and judgment ability, you can't help but be dissatisfied.

Mike Miller was already ready to catch and shoot, so as soon as he received the pass, he had to act immediately, wanting to shoot directly.

"Replenishment!"

While staring at Wade, Kobe shouted behind him, being distracted is not difficult for a player of his level.But now, all he can do is to remind him. After all, it is easy to be distracted and use two things, but it is impossible to do two things at the same time.

If you let go of Wade to help defend, it will only cause a greater threat.

Subconsciously, Gasol wants to make up the defense, because with Andrew Bynum, he will always be the one to expand the defense.Because the defense of the inside line is a bit of a thankless behavior. If you defend it, no one will cheer for you. If you can't defend it, you will blame the goal on your head. The kind of active defense expansion interest.

Besides, once the defense is expanded and far away from the basket, it is impossible to even get a defensive rebound. Andrew Bynum is too lazy to do such a stupid thing.

Therefore, over time, it has naturally become the responsibility of Pau Gasol, and it is not surprising that the Spaniards will form this subconscious habit.

"Paul, you guard the basket, I'll go over." Gasol just heard this voice, a black shadow rushed out from behind him, looking at the direction, it didn't go straight to the left corner or where is it?
Gasol looked at this person's back number and thought, why is he so active...

Tang Qian's speed was very fast. Just as Mike Miller was about to make a move, a large yellow-skinned figure appeared in front of him.

This is a very strange feeling. Mike Miller looked at the yellow center. Although the other party didn't say a word, he clearly felt a voice saying: If you have the guts, you shoot.

Do you want to make a move?Mike Miller estimated the distance between the two, which is about 6 to 7 feet. Logically speaking, this distance is enough for him to shoot.But for some reason, he suddenly thought of the goal that James was blocked just now. After half a second of hesitation, Tang Qian had already taken the opportunity to rush to him.

In fact, Tang Qian's foothold is not yet stable at this time. If Miller makes a breakthrough, it will also have a certain effect.However, Mike Miller's breakthrough ability was originally poor. Even in his peak period, he was still a shooting-oriented swingman with a very low breakthrough rate. Now that he is getting older, his breakthrough ability is even more insufficient.Not to mention Tang Qian, even Mike Miller himself has no confidence in his breakthrough, which can be clearly seen by looking at his career shot percentage.

So in the end, Mike Miller chose to pass.

The basketball was passed back to LeBron James.

To be honest, James was very annoyed when he saw this result, but now is not the time to attack, he must tie the score before talking about other things.Due to the problem of attack time, James decided to fight Metta Shiping hard.James rarely plays particularly fancy dribbling, but this does not mean that his dribbling ability is not good. He has a high ball possession rate and high usage rate in his career but only averaged 3+ turnovers per game. This is evidence of his good ball handling ability.Because of James' size and weight, his dribbling breakthrough is in a class of its own.The so-called Hesitation.Moves, LeBron is one of the top players.

James glanced up at the time, then dribbled the ball slowly, approaching Charity.World.Peace in front of him step by step.

In order to leave room for contingency, Ci Shiping could only back away, lest James would blow past him if he got too close.

James handed the basketball to his left hand, pressed his body forward slightly, and then inadvertently, he dribbled violently.

After seemingly hesitating, he broke out in an instant. James' Hesitation.Moves, he did it like a textbook.

And unlike ordinary players using Hesitation.Moves, James' hesitation is more powerful and difficult to break.why?Because of his body, he can be called a monster among perimeter players, even if it is placed in the entire history of the NBA, it is worthy of anyone.So James' Hesitation.Moves, also known as tank Hesitation.Moves, even if the defender reacts in time, it will be deflated in front of James' strong body and it will be difficult to stop him.

Oops~ slow~
Ci Shiping was also a DPOY player before, and his experience on the defensive end was undoubtedly rich, so James just rushed to his side, and he came up with a rough answer.

Sure enough, Ci Shiping was no match for LeBron James in the competition of reaction speed and explosive power. Seeing this situation, Ci Shiping immediately shouted behind him without hesitation: "Make up defense!"

Gasol was the one who came to make up the defense, because Tang Qian had just thrown out, so he couldn't go to make up defense against Zhan Huang now.

Gasol is not stupid, as a European big man, he knows how to deal with American players with superhuman body.

Want to call me an offensive foul?

James has a wide field of vision. As soon as he saw the Lakers' No. 16 action, he immediately thought of a countermeasure.

Just when James was about to collide with Gasol, the former took a small step, and his body stopped abruptly. If this kind of movement was replaced by ordinary people, he would not dare to do it too much. If one is not good, he may be injured. , but this is nothing to LeBron James who has an "alien physique".After attracting Ci Shiping and Pau Gasol, without even thinking about it, he just made a side pass, and the basketball flew directly from Gasol's waist.

This wonderful pass, just right, can't help but divert the attention of everyone in the Lakers team, and also ran out of the tactics that the head coach Erik Spoelstra just arranged.Without Gasol's control, Haslem quickly stepped up and helped Wade complete a high-quality screen, but the defender Kobe was equally sophisticated. Relying on his years of defensive experience, he quickly passed behind, Although it was still seized by Wade half a step ahead, but not completely out of position.But Kobe didn't expect that he had just moved two or three steps before being blocked by a "wall of meat".

The person who made the wall is No. 31 of the Heat, Sean Battier.

Double screen? ? ?
Kobe yelled in his heart, but this time he couldn't keep up with Dwyane Wade's footsteps. With Battier's cover this time, "The Flash" had already rushed to the right side of the Lakers penalty area. , and this position is exactly behind Pau Gasol and Ci Shiping.

Blind spot attack.

After receiving the pass from LeBron, Wade bounced up, bent his knees, and then went straight up out of nowhere, like a helicopter.

The answer is already obvious, "The Flash" will use a dunk to help the Miami Heat tie the score.

Oops, no one guards Wade!
Mike Brown stood watching from the sidelines, really wishing he could play to hinder Dwyane Wade's slam dunk.

But of course this is impossible to implement, so no matter how anxious he is, he can only stare blankly and have nothing to do.

The DJ at the scene read out the voice: "Dwyane Wade, inside dunk... oh~ what did I see???"

"Dwayne, be careful!" James also noticed something was wrong, and immediately reminded him aloud.

Wade wanted to make a change at this time, but he was a step too late.

Just when he was about to change the dunk into a layup, a big hand suddenly appeared in front of his eyes, and then without any explanation, pressed it on the basketball in his hand.

this hand?Where did it come from?When I came in, there were obviously no defenders inside, right? ? ?
Wait, the complexion of this hand is...yellow? ? ?It's him? ? ?

"Flash, come down for me~"

when!
Another crisp sound appeared in Tang Qian's mind, but at this moment, he could no longer care about these things.

All he thought and looked at was the basketball.

That orange basketball.

"Come down!!!"

With a "bang", the basketball fell out of Wade's hand. He staggered after landing, but he didn't care about stabilizing his figure, and turned his face away immediately.

No. 29?really him? ? ?

The Lakers scored a 2-point basket by Kobe, 106-102, the Lakers led by 4 points, and the Miami Heat requested a timeout again.

"Hot, you can do it~ Can that ball come back to block the shot? Are you not afraid of falling to your death?" It was Ci Shiping who said this.

"Hot, beautiful block, congratulations on your block and getting 10+ data!" Paul Gasol said.

"Hot, 10+ blocks, it's so cool~ I won tonight, you have to treat me to dinner! Let's celebrate and celebrate!" This is Matt Barnes.

"nice.work." This is Kobe Bryant.

Blocking 10+ shots, this is no different from a milestone for me, and it is also the moment when the entire American audience remembers my name for the first time.

ESPN Live Room.

"Amazing~amazing.talent! amazing.courage!!!" After seeing the ball, Isiah Thomas said "amazing" three times without hesitation.

"I finally know why you call him smash~ This oriental boy's obsession with blocking shots is far beyond ordinary people! He can also run back to block shots with that ball. It really takes courage. If you are not careful, you will lose control. Caused physical damage!" Jeff Van Gundy said: "I am optimistic that he will squeeze out Troy Murphy. Although the offensive level is not as good as the latter, he is much better than Murphy in terms of defense alone. If he can continue to Keep it up, and it is not impossible to become a strong contender for the best sixth man in the future!"

"How is it? Jeff, is my vision okay? Hahahaha~" Isiah Thomas laughed proudly.

In China, the traffic of major basketball post bars and basketball forums has skyrocketed.

"Fuck! Donkey is too fierce~ Did you see that ball just now? He flew back from the corner three-point line to block Wade! This is too fierce!"

"My pants are almost wet!"

"Although this cover is very good-looking, I still suggest Tang Qian to do it less in the future, because it is too easy to get injured! The physique of Asians is different from that of Europeans and Americans. Once injured, the recovery period will be longer, so it is not worth the candle!"

"MD! 10 blocks, this is too tough! Are you going to make up for all the data from the previous games???"

"By the way, where did the brother who said that Tang Qian would live broadcast Chixiang if he could cover Wade again? We are all waiting for you to complete the great cause of Chixiang~"

With 17 seconds left before the end of the game, players from both sides re-entered the court. In order to gain time to attack, the Heat chose to serve the frontcourt.

Haslem stood on the sideline and served the ball. After James received the ball, he shot directly against Metta Shiping.

brush~
What made the Lakers' heart tense was that the three-pointer actually went in, 106-105, 11 seconds later, and the Heat were still one point behind.

"Foul, go up and directly foul!"

Heat coach Erik Spoelstra yelled loudly from the sidelines.

This is almost a common trick in professional basketball. In order to buy time for the attack, the defense will often send the offense directly to the free throw line.

Beep~ Since the number of fouls committed by the Miami team in this quarter has already reached 4 times, so the first move is a foul and free throw.

The person who made free throws for the Lakers was "Old Fish" Fisher. Mike Brown still has this level. At the critical moment, of course, it is better to have an experienced veteran, so he removed Barnes and replaced him with Fisher. It just worked.Besides, Fisher's career free throw percentage is more than 8%, compared with Barnes' 7%, the degree of stability is undoubtedly much higher. Mike Brown's formation is still very decent.

Who is Derek Fisher?You can say that he is not fast, that his defense is mediocre, and that his offense is not satisfactory, but the key ability of the "big heart" is not inferior to any first-line star, even many superstars and super giants. Be willing to bow down.

The 0.4-second masterpiece that year was the epitome of Derek Fisher's career.

5 championships, countless playoff battles, these are not given for nothing, so the Heat's players want to put pressure on him, which has almost no effect.

brush~
First free throw.

brush~
The second free throw was also hit.

108-105, the Lakers led by three points, with 9.4 seconds left in the game.

"Keep an eye on the 3-pointer, we must not let them get an open chance for the 3-pointer!!!" Kobe stood beside Wade and directed loudly.

LeBron James looked at the defensive formation of the Lakers. Obviously, the main energy was concentrated outside the three-point line. In this case, he took a 2-pointer first, and then continued to foul.

James began to break through forcefully, and Ci Shiping followed closely, but unfortunately he still couldn't resist Zhan Huang's footsteps. After breaking through to the inside of the Lakers, James forced a layup. Tang Qian wanted to rush to block the shot, but Blocked by James' deputy, blocking his possibility of blocking.

slap~swipe~
The basketball hit the board and went into the net, 108-107.

The Lakers served, Miami continued to foul, Fisher withstood the pressure, made 2 free throws again, 2-110, still took a 107-point lead, and returned to the defensive half.

This time, the time is only 4.1 seconds, and there are not many choices left for the Heat. Wade is not good at making three-point shots from the outside, and the rest of the players are open forts. I chose to do it myself.

After a short timeout, the Heat continued to choose to serve the frontcourt. With the help of a screen from Haslem, James came out sideways and caught the ball for a jumper.He dribbled the ball and pushed forward for a few steps, and then took off and pulled it out. This is a "pre-play" to shorten the shooting distance and improve the shooting percentage.

Emergency stop, take off, shoot!

Ci Shiping leaped vigorously, and followed the opponent to bounce up.

Although there is almost no possibility of blocking, but as long as it can hinder James and reduce his shooting rate, Ci Shiping feels that this jump is worthwhile.

Can I put it in?
The entire Staples Center fell silent.

The basketball drew a high parabola, and then fell towards the Lakers basket.

Duang ~
The basketball hit the back edge of the rim and crashed hard.

In the end, with only 0.1 seconds left, the Lakers served and the red light came on. Los Angeles' unbeatable history against Miami's "Big Three" came to an end.

Among them, Kobe did his part and scored a game-high 38 points, including a super high shooting rate of 60.9%, which made his statistics tonight even more brilliant. In addition, Gasol's 20 points and 10 rebounds were also quite dazzling.Of course, Tang Qian's statistics are not bad, with 6 points, 6 rebounds and 10 blocks, which made his name appear in the hearts of the people of the United States for the first time.

PS: The big chapter is here, I hope everyone will continue to support Xiaozi~
