The strongest unicorn in basketball

Chapter 290 Full of Confidence
"Huh...huh..."

"Ha ha……"

At this time, the players of both teams were exhausted.

The intensity of overtime is no less than that of the fourth quarter.

Due to the decline in physical strength, their shooting percentage dropped sharply. Now that half of the overtime is over, only Li Pu is left for the Kings, and only Dewey is left for the Thunder.

Once again, Li Pu received the ball. He had already scored 8 points in overtime, and he was able to compete with the Thunder on his own.

This time, the Thunder began to double-team Li Pu.

In fact, this is not the first time the Thunder double-teamed Li Pu in overtime.

It's just that in the first few times, Li Pu solved it through various passes and cuts and off the ball.

Therefore, Li Pu is very sure about breaking the double-team. I saw him pass the ball behind his head and find Butler who made an empty cut.

Butler chose to layup, but was blocked by Durant from behind!
Did not enter!

Except for Li Pu, no one else could score in overtime, even Butler!

Durant personally led the defense on the defensive end, making Butler 2 for 0 shots.

This time it was the Thunder's turn to attack, and the score at this time was 109:109. As long as this goal is scored, they can take the lead!
It was less than 30 seconds before the end of the game, as long as they could take the lead, victory was already beckoning to them.

Westbrook brought the ball to the frontcourt, and Durant followed Butler to reach out for the ball.

Westbrook gave the ball to Durant without saying a word, and then opened up space for Durant.

At this time, only Durant and Butler were left in the entire right half, and everyone else came to the left side of the court.

In the previous games, although Durant still averaged a lot of points per game, he played very uncomfortable under Butler's defense.

Therefore, many people clamored that Butler locked Durant.

Although most people know that this is just grandstanding, how can a star at Durant's level be so easily guarded?
But I can't stand Durant Thaksin!

The fragile and sensitive Xiaoshuai cared very much about the opinions of the outside world, so even though his physical strength was about to be exhausted at this time, he still wanted to single-handedly beat Butler.

Butler faced Durant without any fear, and kept giving him physical confrontation. The two collided with each other like this, and time passed by every minute.

Seeing that there were only 8 seconds left in the attack time, Durant suddenly turned around and seemed to have passed Butler.

But Butler's reaction speed was very fast. After realizing it for the first time, he immediately moved sideways and continued to block Durant.

At this moment, Durant suddenly changed direction and completely shook Butler away.

A person with a height of more than two meters one, such a light and large change of direction, and such a fast speed is simply a bug.

Of course, there is someone more buggy than him, and that is Li Pu!

Equivalent to plus size Durant!

After changing direction, Durant immediately collected the ball and shot.

Although Butler responded immediately to defend, it was still a step late, and Durant had already thrown the ball.

Basketball hollow into the net!

Durant hit a key goal again!
At this moment, the fans who had been nervous for the whole game began to shout and cheer crazily, Durant is their god!

In the fourth quarter, there was a tie-breaking three-pointer, and at this time it was another key mid-range shot, which was simply too strong!

At this moment, it seemed that Durant was saying to Li Pu: Your big brother will always be your big brother!

The Kings called their final timeout.

At this time, there were less than 8 seconds of attack time left before the end of the game, and the Kings fell behind by two points.

After a timeout, the director's shots were continuously shown to Li Pu. Everyone on the earth knew that the king would give Li Pu the last ball. The key is, can the Thunder be able to defend themselves when they know this situation?
It is impossible for the Kings to just defend Li Pu. At this time, the point difference on the court is only 2 points.

A 2-point tie and a 3-point game are acceptable to the Kings. The whole situation is completely reversed from that in the fourth quarter.

Ibaka stuck to Li Pu at this time, and Cousins ​​went to interfere with Giannis' sideline kick.

Because Ibaka's strength is not as good as Li Pu, when the two were fighting, Li Pu directly overthrew Ibaka to the ground. This situation is exactly the same as that of Westbrook in the fourth quarter.

Westbrook's pusher didn't blow it up, and Li Pu naturally couldn't blow it up either.

Getting rid of Ibaka, Giannis passed the ball to Li Pu immediately.

After Li Pu received the pass, he began to dribble. At this time, Ibaka had already got up and caught up with Li Pu again.

There was no shooting space, and Cousins ​​also began to pinch Lip.

Seeing this, Li Pu had no choice but to dribble to the right to break through, and the time was ticking by.

"5! 4! 3! 2..."

Seeing the victory getting closer and closer to him, the audience couldn't help shouting the final countdown in unison.

At this time, Li Pu had already dribbled the ball to the right 45 degrees. At this moment, he made a sudden stop, and then took a step back directly outside the three-point line, opening up space with the defender.

Then, Li Pu immediately chose a three-point shot!
Li Pu's step-back three-pointer is simply a bug, no one can interfere with such a shot!

Take a step back and draw the bow, the arrow pierces the sky!
The basketball flew into the basket with a strong spin!
As the basketball enters the hoop, the timer also sounds at the same time.

Lore!Li Pu completed the lore!

No time was left for the Thunder.

Everyone thought that Li Pu would choose to use a two-pointer to drag into the second overtime. Unexpectedly, Li Pu directly used a three-pointer to take away the defending champion Thunder!

The moment Li Pu completed the lore, he saw the players on the bench of the Kings rushing towards Li Pu like crazy, drowning Li Pu in an instant!
This new Kings team returned to the playoffs for the first time in 8 years and the Western Conference finals in 12 years after only one year of major change!

The biggest contributor to all this is naturally the new MVP Li Pu!
In this game, he scored 11 points for the Kings team in overtime and scored 37 points, plus 16 rebounds, 5 assists and 3 blocks. The data is so gorgeous that it is jaw-dropping.

Worthy of being an MVP!Worthy of being a superstar!

At this moment, no one will doubt Li Pu's star quality, no one will doubt whether he can be the leader of the team!

He is not, who is?

Looking at the Kings players celebrating crazily, the figures of Dewey's two young men looked a little lonely.

They hadn't tasted the taste of failure in the playoffs for two full years, and this time the failure was given to them by their former good brothers. This kind of failure really made them feel a little uncomfortable!
"Congratulations! I was wrong before the season, but your choice is right!"

When the two sides shook hands and hugged after the game, Westbrook looked at Li Pu and couldn't help admitting his mistake with a wry smile.

"Hahaha, why is it a choice? Not my strength?"

"Ah yes yes yes, you are right!"

Letting go of Westbrook, Li Pu hugged Durant again.

"Next year, we will beat you!"

"Hahaha, you will have no chance next year!"

Regarding this point, Li Pu was full of confidence.
