When the game came to the fourth quarter, Lamar stood at the top of the three-point line of his own half, his hands on his knees, and his eyes were a little tired looking at the attacking Nets players.

Lamar pulled himself together and tried to straighten down, feeling a pain in his back that quickly reawakened his brain from the chaos.

By now in the game, the effects of the drug have become less obvious. It seems that because of the frequent injections, his body seems to have really developed the ability to avoid weight loss from this drug.

With such a fierce game and a lot of pain to endure, Lamar was now feeling tired and in danger of collapsing at any moment.

Kidd on the New Jersey Nets' side seems to be in the same situation, which can be seen from his position with the ball.

Since the beginning of the fourth quarter, Kidd has rarely taken the initiative to break through on offense, and his ankle injury has made him dare not break through as casually as in the first half. Without a breakthrough, Kidd's passing power immediately dropped by half. Billups' defensive pressure was a lot lighter all of a sudden.

The game had reached the bottom half of the fourth quarter, when the score was 102-96. The Knicks relied on the advantage established in the first half to still lead the Nets by six points.

In the Knicks' offense, Billups hit a three-point shot with a double cover of Darmsport and Houston.

It's just that this little advantage can't become a win, and a Nets can get it back if they don't pay attention.

Jason Kidd confronted Billups again, and the distance between the two was gradually being reduced. Suddenly, Kidd's body shook, and Billups immediately felt like a great enemy, and just when people thought that Kidd would choose to break through by himself this time, Kidd staggered with one hand.

Ankle!

The fans at the scene were shocked at the same time, and Billups was also a little relaxed when he saw this. Usually in this case, the referee will stop the game and let the opposing team doctor come in to treat the injured players of his own team.

Just as Billups was glad that he could finally catch his breath and rest. The situation suddenly changed, and Kidd, who was about to fall to the ground, suddenly kicked on the ground with one leg like a sharp arrow that had been shot, and jumped out quickly.

What happened suddenly shocked all the players on the court, and by the time they reacted, Kidd had already made a layup.

The Knicks' last barrier under the basket, except for a symbolic beckoning and making a beckoning cat, could only watch the basketball fall into the basket through the tip of his hand.

Just as the New Jersey fans were about to cheer for Kidd's wonderful performance, what they saw was that Kidd fell into the crowd of reporters behind the basketball hoop after landing, and the scene was suddenly chaotic.

The fears didn't last long, though, and Kidd soon struggled to his feet.

Exhaling a cloudy breath, Kidd lowered his head and slowly ran towards his own half. It turns out that he has reached the limit, and like Lamar, he is just holding on now.

At this point, it's no longer just a matter of who has good skills to win. Now the test of both teams is their perseverance, and whoever can grit their teeth and persevere until the end will be the final winner.

"Damn it! Can't you make people take a breather? ”

Dampoter was also sweating profusely, panting and complaining.

"Pass the ball!" Lamar was in a dream, his voice was small but intimidating.

Dampot was so shocked that he passed the ball to Lamar without even thinking about it.

Lamar rushed forward as soon as he got the ball.

"Lamar, look at your painful appearance now, give up!" Jefferson continued to verbally try to break Lamar's morale.

It's a pity that Jefferson is destined to waste his efforts, a person as persistent as Lamar, you can let him die, but you must not make him give up his desire for victory.

Standing in front of Jefferson, Lamar suddenly stopped, gasping for breath and clapping the basketball with his left hand.

Seeing this, Jefferson also relaxed his mind a little, he was too tired to play this game. To be honest, until now, Jefferson has gritted his teeth and insisted on defending Lamar, and his body was not dominant, and he was always caught by Lamar, a cunning fox, and smashed this weakness. Even though he tried his best and didn't defend against it, Jefferson suffered a great deal of damage, both physically and mentally.

Just when Jefferson breathed a sigh of relief, Lamar, who was still slow like an old cardinal, suddenly jumped up like a needle, jumped up with his legs crossed in a strange position, and then threw the basketball in his hand under the stunned gaze of the fans.

“OH！ My——God！ Magic Johnson, who was watching from the sidelines, saw the ball scored, jumped up, and waved his fist vigorously: "Lamar, you bastard did a wonderful job, keep doing this, you will definitely win." ”

After venting, Johnson sat back, then tidied up his suit and returned to his sanctimonious appearance just now.

The Sky Hook Jabbar, who was sitting next to him, looked at the magician dumbfounded: "Elwin! You seem to be getting a little too excited. ”

"No way, Lamar is my apprentice, and I'm also a fan of Lamar!" Johnson spread his hands and made a helpless look, and then suddenly said excitedly: "Didn't you see something from this game?" ”

"What did you say?" Abdul-Jabbar asked, confused.

"Passion, passion! It's not the kind of show-off blood, but the blood of men. Don't you think the league is getting more and more like the NBA now since we old guys retired? ”

Abdul-Jabbar was a little dizzy by Johnson's hot blood theory: "Erwin, be careful of the trouble that comes out of your mouth!" ”

Johnson rolled his eyes: "I'm retired, what am I afraid of?" I don't believe you didn't see anything! Look at Lamar and his Knicks on the court, look at their dedication to championships, to winning, do you think of anything? ”

Abdul-Jabbar was stunned for a moment, then remembered it and sighed, "Yes! It's been a long time since I've seen a game like this. ”

Johnson looked at the players on both sides who were still fighting for their lives on the field: "The league needs to be washed with such blood now, if the future players are tuned by Stern to the way he thinks, the future of this league will be over!" Instead of that, it would be better to have a few more bastards like Lamar! ”

"What do you think of this game? Can your little apprentice win? ”

"Of course!" Johnson said with great certainty: "Lamar is a man who is good at miracles!" In his eyes, such a game may be just a small scene. Don't forget, the Knicks also had a man like Lamar, and he also insisted on playing despite a serious injury to lead the Knicks to a championship. ”

Abdul-Jabbar was stunned: "Willis Reed!" Do you think Lamar can be this guy? ”

"This guy really looks like Willis Reed! But speaking of achievements? Maybe Lamar will surprise a lot of people. Johnson said as if to himself.

Of course, the people on the field can't hear the criticism of them off the field, and they are still fighting with all their strength at the moment.

At this time, the players on both sides who killed the red eyes only had their opponents in their eyes, and everything else was not important to them.

"Hold on! We can win! Don't forget that we told the fans in New York to go home with a win! Whenever Lamar felt his teammates were about to relax, he shouted a few words to remind them to pay attention.

Faced with the team's unfavorable situation at this time, Scott finally showed his potential as a gambler again. He replaced Collins again and replaced him with Van Horn, and for a while the Nets' outside offensive ability increased greatly.

Seeing Van Horn playing, Jeff Van Gundy frowned, and in desperation, he had to send Arenas again, so that he and Billups could deal with the Nets' two big outside lines, and Dampoter, who was still at a decent speed, pulled to the outside to defend Jefferson. As for the inside line, it can only be handed over to Lamar.

But the key problem is that the 25 minutes agreed between Jeff Van Gundy and Lamar are just around the corner.

Jeff Van Gundy was also hesitating to wait until the twenty-five minutes were due, what should he do? Will you replace Lamar and announce his surrender, or will he break his promise to keep Lamar on the field? Both of these options made him very difficult.

On the one hand, he was worried about Lamar's body. At halftime, Lamar was given a second shot. Lamar's injuries are now dangerously serious, and Jeff Van Gundy hasn't lost his mind yet, he knows that Lamar's health should come first at this time! But the situation on the field made this decision difficult! Without Lamar, now this Knicks will definitely become headless flies, and they can only hold their heads in the face of the Nets' desperate tactics.

Looking at Lamar, who was still fighting the court and almost burning his health for victory, Jeff Van Gundy still couldn't convince himself for a long time.

Two minutes before the end of the game, the New York Knicks once again led the New Jersey Nets by three points thanks to Lamar's three points. Nets head coach Scott decisively called a timeout, and after the timeout, the New Jersey Nets' first offense brought the two sides back to the same running line.

Kidd broke through and passed to Jefferson in the open space, who scored a three-pointer.

The score is still scorching, and the two sides seem to be very interested in this stalemate tug-of-war, always tacitly keeping the score gap within a range that can be tied by one goal.

This tense atmosphere makes people feel like they want to suffocate, and the tense atmosphere never seems to go away.

From the beginning of the game to the present, the success rate of the attack of both sides has always remained very high, and the wonderful offensive battle has made the audience and those superstars who came to watch the game also addicted. Some people have already shouted hoarsely because of their emotions, and at this time they can only sit in their seats depressedly and watch others continue to party.
