The Jazz called a timeout when they saw that the situation was not good. Coach Jerry Sloan was very dissatisfied with the performance of the players on the court at the moment. They did not play the Jazz's usual iron-blooded defense.

In the next game, the Jazz made more and more defensive moves, especially against Liu Han. Every time Liu Han received the ball, he would not use all kinds of defense against the opponent.

The Lakers also did a good job defending today. Facing the decision whether to enter the tiebreaker, the Lakers players are very focused and serious.

The Lakers attacked, Van Exel quickly came to the front court with the ball, Liu Han made a 45-degree position on the right side, and Van Exel hung it to Liu Han.

After receiving the ball, Liu Han did not make any fake moves, but turned around and shot a jumper in the direction of the ball. Although Hornacek had tried his best to block the shot, but Liu Han's back was very large this time, and the ball still Being thrown into the basket, Liu Han also fell to the ground because of too much backlash.

The Jazz took the opportunity to launch a fast break, but the Lakers returned to defense very quickly. After falling to the ground, Liu Han quickly got up and ran back to his own half. Seeing that Stockton could not make a fast break, he could only use The ball stabilized and tried to reorganize the offense.

Liu Han made a free throw on the sideline, and the other Lakers players lined up at the top of the arc. When the whistle sounded, the Lakers players exploded instantly. Liu Han passed the ball to Van Exel who was running in front of him. On the inside, Liu Han turned away from Hornacek and ran to the bottom line on the left. After Van Exel entered the inside line of the Jazz, he made a very dangerous cross to the Jazz's supplementary defense. The ball crossed half of the court. In the hands of Liu Han.

Due to the speed of the ball, Liu Han almost reached a negative angle when he received the ball, but he jumped up and shot without the slightest hesitation. Hornacek's pursuit was a little slower, and when he came over, Liu Han Han has already made a move.

The ball shot by Liu Han almost brushed the edge of the basket and flew into the net. The Jazz fans were even shocked by this shot, because from some angles, it seemed that Liu Han's ball was almost Came from behind the backboard.

The score was equalized, which made the players of the Jazz look a little dazed, because it was almost impossible to score this goal, but Liu Han made it so miraculously.

The time of the game is still the last 22 seconds. The Jazz still have the last chance to attack. They can choose to score quickly and then come back to defend, or they can use up the game time as much as possible. Even if they don’t score in the end, the two teams continue to play Overtime will do.

Coach Jerry Sloan, who called a timeout, chose to run out of time in the game, trying not to give the Lakers the last chance to attack.

When Malone received the ball and was about to make a shot, Liu Han suddenly circled behind Malone and cut off Malone. To raise the shot basketball.

With 5 seconds left in the game, the situation changed subtly.

After Liu Han cut the ball, he quickly picked it up and ran towards the Jazz's half court. Next to him were Malone who was protesting to the referee and the Jazz players who had reacted.

Liu Han ran towards the Jazz half court like lightning, and the Jazz players also went crazy and started chasing Liu Han.

Second by second, Liu Han ran beyond the Jazz's three-point line with less than two seconds left. His body like a cheetah jumped up suddenly, and his body leaned forward slightly due to the rapid braking just now. The Jazz players who had chased and defended also jumped up from behind Liu Han, but Liu Han's shot was faster.

The arc of the basketball was seen from certain angles as the red timer was on, followed by the sound of the ball brushing over the net and cheers from the Lakers to the dismay of Jazz fans.

After the shot, Liu Han did not turn his head back calmly as usual, but stared closely at the basketball flying in the air. The ball was so critical that Liu Han also felt a little nervous. After the ball flew into the net, Liu Hancai turned his head to meet the Lakers players running towards him.
