The strongest unicorn in basketball

Chapter 257 Making History

From the beginning of the fourth quarter, Li Pu stayed on the court and was not replaced.

At this time, the game was fierce, and Coach Brown didn't dare to replace him.

At this time, the advantages of the young team are highlighted.

Brown can suffer from Li Pu, but Popovich dare not suffer from Duncan. After all, old Deng is 83, and he is still expected to play the whole game?
In this way, Li Pu faced the Spurs' bench lineup.

The Spurs lineup at this time is: Patrick Mills, Ginobili, Leonard, Boris Diaw and Matt Bonner.

It was the time when the Spurs' inside line was weakest.

The pick-and-roll between Li Pu and Thomas Jr. was really awkward. It felt like Thomas Jr. didn't even have to bend down to get under Li Pu's crotch.

The tall shooter of the Red Mamba Bonner has contributed many scenes, but in terms of defense, it is... anyway, he is working hard!
This time, he tried very hard to keep up with Thomas Jr., but Thomas Jr. looked back at the moon and passed the ball back to Li Pu.

After Li Pu got the ball, the first thing the Spurs insiders did was to double-team Li Pu.

But Bonner, who is 208cm, and Dior, who is 203cm, can't stop Li Pu, who is half a head taller than them.

After receiving the ball, Li Pu took advantage of the fact that the encirclement between the two was not yet fully formed, slipped through the crowd, and then faced an empty basket with a one-handed dunk, giving the Kings the first place in the fourth quarter.

At 72:69, the Kings led by 3 points.

Then Ginobili broke through and entered the penalty area, and easily deceived Giannis' defense with a snake-shaped breakthrough, but was caught by Li Pu when he made a layup.

Li Pu actually grabbed the ball directly from the air, it was so cruel!

Li Pu, who had finished capturing the cap, pushed forward with the ball, passed all the way and entered the opponent's penalty area, and succeeded in dunking!

At 74:69, the Kings led by 5 points.

Then, the Spurs made a dazzling pass, and finally the ball went to Belinelli on the outside.

Belinelli feels good tonight and has hit 2 three-pointers. He is the most accurate three-pointer on the Spurs tonight.

Therefore, when he made a three-pointer, the Kings were sweating.

But at this moment, Li Pu, who had just finished defending Ginobili, unexpectedly rushed towards Pelinelli again.

At this time, Li Pu's presence on the field was too strong, and he felt like he was everywhere!

It's like when the Spurs went back to the hotel tonight and went to bed at night, and there was Li Pu under the covers, it really scared them a lot!

"Touched!"

Through Li Pu's hard-fought save, he actually touched the ball with his fingertips.

The basketball seemed to turn a corner in the air, and fell headlong, a full meter away from the basket.

Li Pu blocked +1!

However, Li Pu didn't care about how many blocks he had at this time. After seeing the rebound being picked up by Butler, he ran forward.

After Butler saw it, he immediately sent a long pass to Li Pu in the frontcourt.

The Spurs players tried to intercept, but Li Pu jumped high and received the ball first.

Li Pu, who got the ball, took the ball and made a quick break, facing Bonner who was defending him, and completely passed Bonner with a single turn.

When he came to the three-point line, he directly used his famous stunt, three-step layup from the three-point line.

"Bang!"

Li Pu made another dunk, 76:69, and the point difference came to 7 points.

At this time, the Spurs requested a timeout.

"What are you all doing? Are you sleepwalking on the court? Let Prince break into the penalty area so easily, flanking, flanking me!"

Popovich turned into a watering can and sprayed wildly at the players.

After spraying the entire timeout, he backhanded Duncan up again.

Right now, the only one who can restrict Li Pu a little bit is Old Deng.

Back on the court, Duncan responded with a high position and assisted Ginobili to hit a three-pointer. Then on the defensive end, he and Dior pinched Li Pu, which successfully caused Li Pu's mistake and stopped the Kings' attack. Gao Chao.

Although Duncan only contributed one assist in this round, his role on the court is obvious!

Seeing that Duncan was on the other side and blocked the inside line again, Li Pu quickly adjusted the direction of attack.

In the next round, with the help of the pick-and-roll with Thomas Jr., he caught the ball from the outside and made a three-pointer, which was returned!

I have to say, Li Pu's three-pointer tonight is simply amazing!

Time passed bit by bit, the two sides had already switched to the starting lineup, and the competition between the two teams was at the last moment.

The score on the field was 95:97, with the Kings leading by 2 points.

Entering the fourth quarter, the offensive efficiency of the two teams has become extremely efficient.

Needless to say, the Spurs are all soldiers. At this time, 6 members of the team have scored in double figures.

On the other hand, for the Kings, after Li Pu scored 18 points in the first half, he scored 39 points in the second half. Yes, he broke his career scoring record again.

It has been less than a month since the last breakthrough.

At this time, the Kings are still attacking.

Li Pu continued to catch the ball on the perimeter, but this time instead of rushing to dribble, he put on a triple threat and panted.

Li Pu, who played the entire second half, has played more than 43 minutes at this time. The consumption on both ends of the offense and defense has made Li Pu, even an iron man, have already reached his physical limit.

The man who defended him was still Duncan, who also played 38 minutes, not much easier than Li Pu. Tonight's 12-of-3 shooting rate is the best proof.

However, unlike Li Pu who needs to play a huge role on the offensive end, Duncan is not alone on the offensive end!
At this time, there are less than 40 seconds left, and the Spurs must defend the ball to have a chance to equalize or even overtake the score.

The same is true for the king, as long as Li Pu can hit this goal, it will seal the victory.

Li Pu just held the ball like this, consumed the attack time until there were 7 seconds left, and finally started to act.

I saw him make two changes of direction, and after creating a little space, he directly chose a three-point jumper.

No way, he really didn't have the strength to break through.

But Duncan saw through Li Pu's thoughts. Li Pu's change of direction did not fool Duncan at all. After Li Pu took off, he also took off, and finally touched the ball when Li Pu made a shot!

"not good!"

I hated others for a whole game tonight, but I didn't expect to be hated by the opponent at the last moment.

The direction of Li Pu's shot was completely changed, and he didn't even hit the basket!
At this critical moment, Giannis actually got this rebound under the basket!

It turned out that because Duncan was transferred to the outside line, there were only "short guys" in their early 2m like Dior and Leonard under the basket, and Giannis turned out to be the tallest person.

But it didn't end there. Since Leonard missed the basket, there was not much time left in the attack. At this time, Leonard and Diaw began to pinch Giannis. In this case, Giannis could not attack the basket directly.

At the most critical moment, Giannis saw the "88" jersey on the outside line, jumped up and passed the ball, and delivered the ball to the opponent accurately.

That person was none other than Li Pu who got rid of Duncan.

Li Pu caught the ball and made another shot. Although Duncan tried his best to save him, he failed to cover Li Pu again this time.
