NBA: I am a master dealer

Chapter 484 The world is quiet!
But the problem now is that there is a 4-point difference.

The Warriors' entire game lead has bottomed out. This blow to the Warriors' morale is simply fatal and can easily make people discouraged.

Their only hope now is Durant, hoping that this king of undifferentiated singles will step forward to stabilize the situation.

And Durant lived up to expectations, and he also took shots from mid-range.

Still 6 points behind, with 57 seconds left.

From this aspect, the Warriors are tenacious. They have been pushed to the edge of the cliff many times, but they can still stabilize the situation, which is very rare in itself.

Even magical.

When faced with the counterattack momentum of the Lakers, the average team's mentality may have collapsed long ago, and their morale may have been exhausted long ago.

The Warriors can withstand the pressure repeatedly, score the ball again and again, and pull back from the edge of the abyss. It is really amazing.

In fact, their score in the last quarter was really not low, they had already scored 30 points.

But even if they fought like this, they were still pushed to the corner by the Lakers. One can imagine how miraculous Xue Liancheng's performance in this single quarter was.

The commentator also praised Durant: "He is indeed the player with the strongest singles ability in active service. He has saved the Warriors from fire and water time and time again. Without Durant, this game of the Warriors would have been overturned long ago."

And Xue Liancheng also sincerely admires Durant.

It's really...strong!

He led the Lakers to close the score again and again, but Durant stood up to stop him again and again, as if there was an insurmountable obstacle.

But at this point, how could he give up.

Once he got the ball, he didn't care if the Warriors were flanking him, and just rushed forward.

The Warriors actually learned from the experience of the previous round and did not dare to make a flanking attack in the half court. After all, there was too much space and too much risk.

This gave Xue Liancheng a chance to successfully hold the ball two steps beyond the three-point line.

His teammates wisely avoided it.

This time, the Warriors replaced Durant as the main defense.

This is really a wise decision.

Durant is 211cm tall, has a wingspan of 228cm, and has excellent running speed and lateral speed, which is comparable to that of a defender. He does not look like a 210+cm person at all.

When Durant comes to guard him, first of all, he is not easy to lose position and can keep up with the speed. Then, the coverage is wide enough and can erase his tonnage advantage.

A good choice indeed.

But it's not like Xue Liancheng has never faced Durant before, so he didn't panic at all.

Debugging rhythm.

Take a step.

Then turn the crotch in the other direction.

Dribble back from behind.

Attacked again from the original direction.

Step on the gas and accelerate.

Not completely rid of it, but never mind.

Still attracted the Warriors' attack.

He did not pass the ball immediately, but penetrated deep enough to allow them to form a complete double-team before confirming the position of his teammates.

At this moment.

Randall rushed in along the route of Xue Liancheng's breakthrough.

Green was a beat slower, but still chasing after him.

Courtney Lee, who was free, wisely went around and approached Green.

This put Green in a dilemma, so he just paused for a moment.

Randall had already rushed to the free throw line, and Xue Liancheng also chose to throw back at this time, and he rushed out of the baseline.

Randall caught the ball and forced his way straight into the frame.

Durant came to intercept, but was already out of position because he was chasing Xue Liancheng.

This allowed Randall to successfully complete the dunk.

The moment he landed, Randall roared wildly and dunked on Durant, completely releasing him who had been in a downturn for most of the game.

The score difference returned to 4 points.

There are still 38 seconds left.

At this time, the air in the entire arena was suffocating and full of tension and excitement.

In this tiebreaker, almost everyone believed that it would be a one-sided game. The Lakers had lost the opportunity, the right time, the right place, the right people, the home court advantage, and the most important morale.

The game came to the fourth quarter, and everything actually went as people predicted. The Warriors led the Lakers by 16 points. In the first two rounds of the fourth quarter, the Warriors scored consecutively, directly pushing the point difference to 20 points. .

Everyone thought that everything had been settled. Facing the Warriors' cosmic-level lineup of the Big Four, the Lakers had no hope of a comeback.

result.

It was simply shocking. Xue Liancheng single-handedly challenged the Big Four, scoring 28 points in a single quarter and also providing 4 assists. Basically, all the Lakers' goals in the fourth quarter were related to Xue Liancheng.

It is definitely not an exaggeration to say that Xue Liancheng is fighting against the entire Warriors alone.

Moreover, under strict defense, he played a truly dominant game, and basically every goal felt unsolvable.

and so……

How could the Warriors fans not be nervous at the scene?
As soon as Xue Liancheng got the ball, their hearts trembled.

The final moment came, but Cole called a timeout.

Obviously, the Lakers' role players scored goals in two consecutive rounds, which put them in a dilemma.

Xue Liancheng was blocked with all his strength, and James Johnson and Randall scored goals here.

But if you defend Xue Liancheng alone, it seems to be even more dangerous, because Xue Liancheng scored 28 points in the fourth quarter and scored 62 points in the game.

A full 62 points!

In the tiebreaker of the playoffs, with the Warriors' full defense, the game scored 62 points. You can imagine how terrifying it was.

Do you dare to let go of such a performance at the level of a god descending to earth?

Just kidding...

Not to mention letting go, even single defense requires a lot of courage.

The game starts again.

Warriors attack.

Curry dribbled the ball and waited a moment, then started a pick-and-roll with Durant again. After the screen was completed, Durant followed suit and Curry got the ball quickly.

Courtney Lee was obviously unable to face Durant, but the Lakers were actually prepared. Randall immediately came over to cover the defense. The two of them pressed Durant to prevent Durant from making any progress.

resignedly.

Durant can only pass the ball.

Just as Thompson came out of the screen, he didn't hesitate after catching the ball and took a jump shot.

Clang.

James Johnson protected the rebound.

There are only 21 seconds left.

Still a 4-point difference.

Xue Liancheng shouted immediately: "Give me the ball..."

James Johnson gave the ball to him with almost no hesitation.

The difference is now 4 points, and there is still time in the last round. It is even more impossible for the Warriors to carry out a pressing attack.

If a major mistake is made or the defense is not in place and the opponent scores, it will be equivalent to giving points to the Lakers in vain.

No matter how confident a warrior is, he would never do such a stupid thing.

After all, if I defend well, you may not be able to score.

But if I defend like a gamble, then you may seize this gap and score directly.

Which is more important or less important? This is something that every coach can understand clearly.

This allowed Xue Liancheng to push through halftime smoothly.

And he didn't rush straight over, but stopped in the middle circle.

Everyone was stunned and didn't understand what Xue Liancheng was trying to do. The total time remaining was only 21 seconds. It took Xue Liancheng more than 3 seconds to push the ball over. Time was really running out.

The most important thing is that the Lakers are still 4 points behind.

No matter how we play in this round, it is impossible to tie the score. Just like this... we still need to delay?

Crazy?
Durant, who was leading the defense, was a little surprised at this time and subconsciously looked around. All the Lakers players rushed to the corners, and the Warriors players followed suit.

The only difference is that the Warriors' defensive formation has changed.

In the past, after Lakers players pressed the corner, the Warriors would also assign people to guard that place.

Now there is one person assigned to the bottom corners on both sides, and then there are two people on both sides of the first free throw post at a 45-degree angle. The purpose of this arrangement is very obvious, which is to make it easier to flank Xue Liancheng.

After the formation was formed, Xue Liancheng finally started.

Pushing up quickly, there are still two steps away from the three-point line.

Everyone held their breath and stared at Xue Liancheng intently.

As expected.

Xue Liancheng stopped, but he paused and dribbled the ball from behind, advancing from the other side.

Even Durant thought so, and the focus shifted.

result.

Xue Liancheng suddenly retreated, then raised his hand and pulled out.

Durant didn't dare to hesitate and rushed over quickly.

Unexpectedly, Xue Liancheng didn't take off at all.

When Durant flew to the highest point, Xue Liancheng suddenly stood up and exerted his strength and touched him.

The ball is released.

People fall to the ground.

Beep!
Whistle!

next second.

Swish!
Everyone's hair stood on end, and a chill rose from their spines, then straight to the sky.

3+1?

This made their souls tremble wildly.

They looked at Xue Liancheng as if they were seeing gods, their eyes filled with disbelief.

This can also be invested...

Is there really nothing stopping him from killing the game?
this moment.

The fans at the scene were filled with frustration that they had never experienced before.

The commentator jumped up and said, "What's going on? It's the last moment. Is this a lie?"

The commentator ignored it and shouted: "Incredible, incredible! Xue Liancheng scored 3+1, my God! It was really an epic performance. Throughout history, Xue Liancheng's tiebreaker was The performance will be praised, it is an absolute classic battle.”

The host was also deeply shocked: "Xue Liancheng has already scored 31 points in a single quarter. If he hits the extra free throw, it will be 32 points. Oh my God! And it's even a tie. It's really unbelievable. I'm completely conquered by Xue Liancheng." He is definitely one of the best active players in the league, and he will be remembered by all fans around the world with this classic battle."

The Warriors bench was also silent at this moment, they were all stunned.

He just stared at Xue Liancheng in a daze.

The Lakers bench was in sharp contrast. The moment Xue Liancheng scored, they felt like they were going to fly.

Xue Liancheng showed no expression on his face and walked to the free throw line.

A solid hit.

tie.

There are 8 seconds left at the end.

Cole on the sidelines was relatively calm and called a timeout immediately.

The reason why a timeout was called after Xue Liancheng's free throw was because time was running out. After the timeout, the ball can be served at half court, which can save a lot of time to advance.

The commentator was still trembling and said: "Now that the game is going on, I have a hunch that it may have to go into overtime. Xue Liancheng may have to go to 70+ in this tie-break."

Host: "If the Lakers win in the end, then Xue Liancheng will really become a god. He leads the team with a single core, toughens the Big Four in the universe, and finally leads the team to a strong promotion. Everyone should be conquered by him."

In this game, Xue Liancheng can indeed be said to be a masterpiece.

If it really turns around and comes back, it will definitely be remembered in history.

The game starts again.

The Warriors directly opened their formation.

Then Curry serves Durant, and he himself runs away and buries himself on the other side.

The Warriors' tactical intention is obvious, which is to let Durant solve the problem.

Killer?

Or overtime?
Normally in this situation, the Lakers won't let themselves make mistakes, they just have to defend Durant.

but.

However, Xue Liancheng ran over from the bottom corner and went straight to Durant at the top of the key, obviously preparing to double-team.

But the commentator was confused: "What's going on? What is Courtney Lee doing who is so close? Why did he send Xue Liancheng to double-team? Mike Brown is crazy."

Done.

He went crazy.

And the fact was as expected, the unguarded Curry cut into the basket, and Durant also took advantage of the situation to give the ball.

Randall, who made up for it, took a shot late and could only watch Curry throw the ball.

in!
The Warriors regained the lead by 2 points.

There are only 2 seconds left on the clock.

Host: "Oh my god! It was a fatal mistake. The Lakers worked hard all game but ruined a good game. It is simply unforgivable. I have no idea what Mike Brown was thinking. How to arrange for Xue Liancheng to flank? He should play Hell, really, he should go to eighteen levels of hell.”

Mike Brown on the sidelines was also stunned, with his head in his hands and a mask of pain on his face.

If Xue Liancheng hadn't been the team leader, if Xue Liancheng hadn't been saving today's Lakers, if Xue Liancheng hadn't scored 66 points...

He might be able to jump up and kick Xue Liancheng three meters away.

because……

He didn't arrange for Xue Liancheng to flank Durant at all.

This was entirely Xue Liancheng's own initiative, which led to the current situation in which the Lakers fell into the abyss.

He hates it!
But there is no way.

After Xue Liancheng came down, he just said lightly as if nothing was wrong: "Give me the ball, and I will lead you into the next round of the series."

Mike Brown, whose mood had hit rock bottom, felt slightly better after hearing these words, but still couldn't let go: "Xue, your ball is really too..."

Xue Liancheng interrupted directly: "I don't want to explain these things now. I said, give me the ball..."

Mike Brown opened his mouth, sighed, and finally said nothing.

I had no choice but to pick up the tactical board and arrange the serving tactics.

The scene had been boiling for thirty seconds, but they didn't stop at all and were still celebrating crazily.

Xue Liancheng's super fatal mistake was simply a gift from God to them.

They didn't expect that Xue Liancheng, who had been fighting for the entire game, would be confused at the last moment...

It's really...joy falling from the sky.

It truly proves the saying that there is no God in this world, because God does not make mistakes.

Xue Liancheng's battle to become a god was completely blown.

The game starts again.

The Warriors fans at the scene were still celebrating unbridled.

Xue Liancheng ran and, after covering continuously, rushed to the server James Johnson.

Then catch the ball.

Turn around.

Up.

Iguodala and Durant had to defend and force the shot.

Or to be more precise, the ultimate shot.

Because of the move.

Xue Liancheng fell directly.

The ball is like a parabola, the arc is very exaggerated, it is difficult to believe that such a ball can be scored.

And the next second.

The world is quiet!
