Anxi slipped around from the bottom line and slipped to the bottom corner, McCarvey hit the ground and passed the ball to Anxi's hands, Anxi broke through directly with the ball, and Ariza pulled a step away, followed by a stop-and-go jumper, the basketball flew to the basket, clanged, and hit the iron again.

This time, Kerr Aldridge couldn't grab the rebound, Nene Hilario protected the rebound, and the Wizards continued to consume the game.

Due to the Wizards' slow-paced play, the game was already over in the middle of the quarter, and the 76ers were still behind.

Anxi's shooting missed again, and now he is shooting 3-of-6 and his overall shooting percentage remains at 50%. Kenny Smith glanced at the data, and then said, Charles Barkley immediately took over the topic: "But if Anxi continues to miss, his shooting percentage will definitely decline, and these two balls look at Anxi's condition is not very good." ”

Kenny Smith nodded, he agreed, two consecutive shots, Anxi's state was even a little sluggish, this is not like Anxi when he won four in a row.

Anxi continued to hit iron, but this was not over, after the Wizards' offensive failure, Anxi attacked with the ball, and scored a three-pointer from the outside, and finally scored again.

But then there was another two-game iron streak, and the first quarter ended, Anxi shot 4 of 9 in the first quarter, with a shooting rate of less than 44.4%, which was a little lower than Anxi's average shooting rate per game.

But fortunately, Anxi's three-point score solved the urgent need for the 76ers, and the difference was narrowed to 2 points at once, and then, the 76ers stabilized the situation with a sudden outbreak of defense, and at the end of the first quarter, the 76ers were 22:24, 2 points behind the Wizards.

And Anxi, who shot 4 out of 9, although the shooting rate was not good, he scored 10 points in the first quarter and still carried the team forward.

As soon as the second quarter came up, Anxi, who played the whole first quarter, was replaced to rest, and the 76ers' bench played for 5 minutes, losing to the Wizards' bench, and before Anxi returned to the court, the Wizards led the 76ers by 5 points.

The difference in points is not big, the two teams played very chaotic in the second quarter, the offensive battle became a chaotic battle, and the shooting rate was not very high, if you only look at the data, this game looks more like a defensive battle, but Charles Barkley, who commented on this game, thinks that this game is actually a rookie pecking each other, especially when the substitutes are attacking.

However, Kenny Smith put forward a different opinion: "The bench lineup is a rookie pecking each other, but the main players of both sides are still playing very well, the offense and defense are very organized, at least the game of the main lineup is a defensive battle." ”

Charles Barkley later agreed with Kenny Smith as the main players of both sides returned to the court and the game became rhythmic again, but the rhythm was still in the hands of the Wizards.

Anxi's first shot off the bench, he found an open opportunity on the outside, and substitute point guard Shaun Livingston gave Anxi the ball, and Anxi jumped to shoot.

"Anxi's open shot, this time it shouldn't be iron. Charles Barkley shouted, but then, his crow's beak worked.

With a bang, Anxi's three-point shot directly hit the rebound, and then bounced out of the basket and didn't go in!

Charles Barkley touched his big bald head and didn't know what to say.

Anxi's empty three points didn't go in, and it seemed that he threw away his touch. ”

Kenny Smith said lightly, and then continued to analyze: "This is Anxi's third consecutive iron, he has now hit 4 goals in 10 shots, and the shooting rate is a little dismal, only 40% of the shooting rate is left, and it seems that he will not find his touch in a short time." ”

Anxi did show some struggle, the shooting feeling was a little bad, after this three-point shot, Anxi continued to play iron, it was the first quarter, a 7 consecutive irons, and his personal shooting data became 13 shots and 4 shots, and in the last few minutes of the second quarter, Anxi only relied on six free throws and scored 5 points in 5 of 6 free throws.

Counting the 10 points in the first quarter, after halftime, Anxi still scored 15 points.

Fortunately, although Anxi hit the iron again and again, the Wizards also hit the iron again and again, and the game between the two sides in the second half of the second quarter really played a defensive battle, except for Anxi's opening three-pointer, Anxi's other shots were all spelled out by himself through breakthroughs, so although Anxi's hand was not good, his condition was still very good.

With Anxi's breakthrough inside kill, the 76ers trailed the Wizards by only one point at halftime.

In the third quarter, Anxi continued to feel badly, playing more than 5 minutes in the first half of the third quarter, hitting only one shot in 3 shots, but made three more fouls, scored 6 points in 6 of 6 free throws, helped the 76ers draw the Wizards, and then was replaced by Brett Brown to rest.

Evan Turner took Anxi's gun and scored 11 points in the third quarter to bite the score.

In the final fourth-quarter battle, the defense became more and more miserable, Anxi was strictly defended by the Wizards, and the first ball of the fourth quarter, the 76ers' ball possession.

Anxi held the ball, Thaddeus Young gave Anxi a blocking and dismantling cover, Anxi shook off Ariza with the help of the cover, rushed into the inside, and the Marsingotat who made up the defense split his head and covered his face was a foul, and with a beep, the referee's whistle sounded, and Anxi still failed to score.

Marcingotat fouled, Anxi walked to the free throw line, hit both free throws, and the 76ers overtook the score.

Then, John Wall's layup missed, and the 76ers played a fast break, but Evan Turner's pull-up jump shot did not go in the fast break, and Trevo Ariza, who returned to defense, grabbed the rebound and took advantage of the situation to also play a wave of fast break, and with a bang, John Wall's fast break layup hit, and the score returned to the original point.

At the free throw line, Anxi held the ball, constantly shrugged his shoulders, accelerated, followed by an emergency stop, and made a jump shot!

There was an exclamation from the sidelines, and Kenny Smith shouted with wide eyes, "This ball is here!"

With a bang, the basketball bounced twice on the hoop, but finally bounced out and didn't go in......

Kenny Smith couldn't help but sigh: "Anxi hit the iron again, shooting 5 of 17, and the shooting rate has fallen below 30%. ”

On the field, An Xi shook his hand helplessly, and then turned back to defend.

……

The game entered the end of the fourth quarter amid all kinds of iron sounds, and in the last 1 minute and 12 seconds of the game, the Wizards led by one point, but the ball belonged to the 76ers.

Anxi broke through, and then a ball, the basketball flew into Evan Turner's hand from a hidden angle, Turner hit a mid-range jumper, and hit with a bang!

Charles Barkley excitedly shouted, "Evantena!

"There are 55 seconds left in the game!"

At 55 seconds, the game suddenly became tense.

"John Wall's breakthrough, they are not ready to waste time, come up quickly! It only took 11 seconds!" Kenny Smith took a deep breath, and then his voice suddenly rose up: "The ball is in! John Wall, he is the top pick in the 2010 draft, and Evan Turner is the leader! At the critical moment, the champion and the top eye broke out together!"

"44 seconds to see what the 76ers do with ......"

The 76ers didn't call a timeout, they only had one timeout left, so Brett Brown could only stand on the sidelines and yell incessantly, asking his players to control the time.

McCarvey controlled the time from the outside, and in order to have his last shot, McCarvey moved with 35 seconds left in the game......

A breakthrough, into the basket, the Wizards immediately organized a supplementary defense, McCarvey was locked in the restricted area!

Picked up the ball with both hands, threw his right hand back, and the basketball flew out and gave it to Anxi!

"Anxi!" (To be continued.) )
