Chapter 424: 3 to 2, Get the Match Point!

In the G5 battle of the finals, the battle of Tianwang Mountain, after the third quarter, the score of the two sides came to 54-49.

Today's score is destined not to get up, it took more than 50 points in the third quarter, and in normal times, it may be 80 at this time, a difference of 30 points.

"Phew-I really don't dare to blink when I see this game, for fear that I will miss the wonderful show at any time." Kenny Smith touched his head.

The game made him frightened.

At first, I was tormented, and after watching too much, I was frightened.

Disastrous.

In this game, the two teams played the defense to the flowers!

"I'm puzzled that the score is so low, but they can control so few mistakes, it's just" O'Neill shook his head, and he also looked speechless: "In this game, the two teams combined made no more than 5 mistakes!" Simply stunning! ”

No mistakes means no counter-attacking points from mistakes, which is missing a large part of the source of points.

But this score is also too little.

It wouldn't be surprising if teams like the Grizzlies and Spurs played with such scores, but this is the Pacers-Warriors, the league's most ferocious and wolfish team on offense.

This one was a 54-49 score.

"The time has come to decide the outcome in the fourth quarter, Xu Xuan is still on the court, playing the fifth game in a row!" Barkley exclaimed.

It's not blowing, that's the truth!

Playing five games in a row, this is not a person.

"Everyone wants to boil Xu Xuan to death, but in the end, they find that they are the ones who are boiled to death, which is really bad luck." Barkley said.

There are many people who want to boil Xu Xuan to death, but as I said just now, in the end, they didn't boil Xu Xuan to death, but they all boiled themselves to death.

The first attack that came up in the fourth quarter.

Xu Xuan asked for a block here.

The blocking and dismantling of pickled peppers, the return after blocking and dismantling, pickled peppers do not score three points.

The Pacers don't block a lot, unlike the Cavaliers, who play you 180 picks and rolls a game.

But it's not going anywhere, blocking and dismantling is the most classic and most commonly used tactic in the league, and no team can put this tactic aside, not even a Dolby team like the Thunder.

And Xu Xuan and Pickled Pepper's blocking and dismantling are also very classic.

Both of them have a very terrible ability to hold the ball, and once a misalignment is formed, it will cause singles, and the success rate of Xu Xuan and Pickled Pepper in singles is too high.

Xu Xuan won't say it, pickled pepper is also the top few in the alliance.

It's a pity that the Warriors didn't give this ball a chance at all, and after the block, Pickled Pepper faced not Curry but Klay.

The two exchanged a hand, and the ball was empty.

The rebound was protected by Green.

The Warriors fought back, Curry's layup was interfered with, and he didn't score.

"Well, it looks like I'm thinking too much." Kenny Smith laughed to himself.

He thought that the two sides of the fourth quarter were going to get up, but when he looked at it like this, it was still a lie.

Sure enough, until the end of the game, there was no outbreak between the two sides.

The Warriors also couldn't match that seemingly small margin of points.

72 to 68, although it cannot be regarded as the lowest score in the NBA Finals, in recent years, it can be regarded as a strange story, not to mention that the protagonists of this game are teams like the Pacers and the Warriors.

At the end of the game, the Pacers took a 3-2 lead and got the match point.

Xu Xuan played 48 minutes, but his score was his lowest score this season, with only 18 points.

18 points, 3 assists, 9 rebounds, 3 steals, 1 block.

He shot less than 40 percent from the field and less than 30 percent from three-point range.

It can be said that this is Xu Xuan's worst game.

But Curry and Klay are no better than Xu Xuan, or even far worse.

Curry only scored 9 points, and Klay scored a double-double, scoring 10 points, and the two combined were one more point than Xu Xuan.

This game was ...... It's terrible!

"In other words, after this round of finals, the value of both sides will not fall, right?" O'Neill said jokingly.

With such a low score and such a low hit rate, isn't it normal for the value to drop?

"Not really, but the Pacers now have a 3-2 match point, and I guess the Warriors should be in a hurry." Kenny Smith said.

Kenny Smith sighed, "Seriously, I really feel like the Pacers are going to win a championship right now. ”

"The Warriors are like a pool of backwater right now, at home, in such an important game as the Battle of Tianwang Mountain, but they are playing like this, they must reflect on it."

"I'm bullish on the Pacers for the next game, and I think they have a pretty good chance of winning."

It's not what Barkley said, it's what Kenny Smith said.

No exaggeration, no boasting, that's what it is.

The Warriors have played really unfriendly in the past five games, especially Curry and Klay, who are not as strong as they played in the regular season.

"You all said that Xu Xuan would pull his crotch when he went to the playoffs and the finals, but now you know, who is pulling his crotch, right? Xu Xuan's stability is simply difficult to describe in words. "It's Barkley, and the style is still a little bit different.

Wake up.

I, Sir Charles, are no longer embarrassed to blow, and every blow is justified.

With a big score of 3-2, after returning to Indiana, Xu Xuan also slowly breathed a sigh of relief.

Regardless of the next game, at least the situation is in the hands of the Pacers.

Now it is not them who are in a hurry, but the warriors.

After the G5 game, Curry walked into the locker room without saying hello to him for the first time, and it seemed that this kid was hit.

Only scored 9 points, where does it look like a regular season MVP?

I guess the next game will definitely be interesting.

Xu Xuan was thinking about this, and the mobile phone in front of him suddenly rang.

Xu Xuan looked at the caller ID and suddenly smiled.

Still a rarity.

"Hey, Kevin, how can you call me when you have time? I heard that you went on vacation to Italy, are you back now? ”

Xu Xuan seemed very familiar.

Because this was actually Durant's call to Xu Xuan.

The two are not too familiar, but the relationship is not bad, at that time, Xu Xuan also learned a trick with Durant to swing his arm and loop.

It's just that limited by height, Xu Xuan uses this trick relatively rarely.

Compared with Xu Xuan's ease, Durant was very surprised and said, "Are you so relaxed now? Can you guarantee to win the next game? ”

"Not guaranteed." Xu Xuan said casually.

"Then why do you look like you're not stressed at all?"

"Pretended."

“......”

Durant was speechless.

However, he didn't go down with Xu Xuan just now, he called because of a "big matter". Hua Heng College

"I just said, I called for something big......" Durant didn't want to mess with Xu Xuan, and said bluntly.

"Big deal?" Xu Xuan's eyes rolled, and then said, "Well, I'm listening, just say it." ”

"Then I'll be blunt," Durant was not polite, considered his tone, and said slowly: "Your contract should expire this year, right?" How's that, do you want to renew your contract? ”

Hearing Durant's words, Xu Xuan was so angry that he didn't choke to death by a mouthful of water.

Let's be straight, are you really so straight?

Xu Xuan touched his brain, big brother, do you think it is possible for me to tell you such an important matter?

And, to tell you the truth, I haven't figured it out yet.

"I don't know Kevin yet," Xu Xuan sighed, Durant was so straight, Xu Xuan was embarrassed to lie to him.

"Are you interested in building a dynasty together?" Durant directly interrupted Xu Xuan.

“......”

Xu Xuan was dumbfounded.

This...... Can you really go straight all the time?

The legendary straight man of steel?

"Establish a dynasty?" Xu Xuan couldn't help but ask.

"Yes, build a dynasty!" Durant's voice came, and it sounded as if he had been planning for a long time.

"I've thought about it, in this round of the finals, no matter which of you loses, I will be firm in that team, even if it is a salary cut, I will join!" Durant said.

His voice was firm: "The Thunder told me they weren't going to do anything this season, they offered a salary cap, but I, Kevin Durant, am I short of money?" Lao Tzu is not short of money! Lao Tzu needs a champion! ”

"And what are you doing with the losing team?" Xu Xuan was confused.

He was confused by Durant.

You are talking about being invincible, you want to be champions, and you want to build a dynasty, so why do you join the losing team?

Xu Xuan didn't understand.

Durant gave his own answer: "Of course, to join the team that can win the championship, but I don't want to join the winners, they are already winners, I go again, even if I win again, others will say that I am lying down to win, then I will leave a stain that is difficult to wash away for a lifetime, the winners, there is no need for another winner to defend their dignity, on the contrary, the losers are different!" They are losers, I am also a loser, and we can make up for each other, so that no one will say that I won the championship. ”

......

Xu Xuan was silent for a moment.

He was a little taken aback by Durant.

Leaving the Thunder is Durant's choice this season, and Xu Xuan is not surprised.

But...... What's it about joining the loser?

Didn't your boss join the victors before?

How did you change direction?

The point is, Durant is right.

In his previous life, because he joined the Golden State Warriors, Du Lao Er was miserable.

Of course, there is also a pot of alliances.

The league must have a "good guy" and a "bad guy", and when James becomes a "good guy", Durant will naturally become a "bad guy", whether he wants to or not, the league will do it.

is like Xu Xuan now, the official intention of the league is to praise Curry and belittle Xu Xuan, but after the past round of the Eastern Conference Finals, the league suddenly found that the resistance to belittlement of Xu Xuan seemed to be too great to continue, so it simply did not move.

And Du Lao Er really shocked Xu Xuan this time.

Join the losers?

Both sides are losers, and cooperation is mutually beneficial?

This...... It's not like Du Lao Er can come up with an idea, right?

Hasn't this guy always had a bad brain?

But he was right, joining the loser would not damage his reputation, and the team that can reach the finals must be the team that can win the championship, and with him, maybe he can really do something next season.

But it's a pity that Xu Xuan really didn't mean to play "brother basketball".

And even if it's a hit, it's enough to have a pickled pepper next to me, and another one?

Sorry, it doesn't take that many people!

The ball is just that, Xu Xuan will not be willing to sacrifice his possession of the ball to play without the ball.

I'm playing so high, why do I have to share the ball?

At this point, it's okay to say that Xu Xuan is Dolby, I am Dolby.

Lao Tzu is wearing four talents, passing, breaking, three-point everything, I need the ball, no ball, play a fart ball!

Xu Xuan usually doesn't seem to have much in the team, but if you don't give him the ball, try it, play peat!

Xu Xuan will be furious, and he will be more ruthless than Tang Bohu and King Ning in the autumn incense.

Why can pickled pepper get along with Xu Xuan so happily?

It's because Pickle Pepper took the initiative to change to play without the ball and changed to three points, otherwise two people must only be able to save one.

Xu Xuan didn't want to say anything here, the talents given by the system were like this, let him watch these talents rot, he couldn't do it.

In other places, we can coexist peacefully, but the ball is here, sorry, we didn't talk about it!

Suppose that the Pacers lose in the end of this round of the Finals, Durant is willing to take a pay cut to join the Pacers.

Under the premise of a sharp rise in the salary cap, Durant took a salary cut to join him, forming a triumvirate combination of Xu Xuan + Pickled Pepper + Durant, and maybe he will be able to defend the title next season.

But in this way, when Durant joins, he is bound to take away part of the ball, even if he is willing to play without the ball, Xu Xuan cannot play as comfortably as before.

In this case, Xu Xuan can only say NO, his limit is a two-person team, and the second master has to be sensible.

Three people, three superstars, that's too many!

You can't fit that many superstars in one team!

In the previous life, after the huddle fever passed, most of the teams in the league were also a combination of two.

The Big Three, the Big Four, and even the Big Five are no longer popular.

Why did the Warriors fall so quickly?

From champion to "champion signing" is almost a blink of an eye?

It's that they have always been obsessed with superstar lineups like the Big Three and the Big Four.

And the teams with better records than them, such as the rising Lakers, Clippers, and Bucks, are all two-person groups.

The duo doesn't look as colorful and beautiful as the trio, but the lineup is more reasonable.

"To tell you the truth, I called Stephen just now, and I want to join you more than them." After hearing Xu Xuan's refusal, Durant was silent for a while and said.

Xu Xuan.

Are you so optimistic that we can win?

"No, it's because you have a good chance of winning, that's why I think so."

Xu Xuan waved his hand, it doesn't matter, Durant sometimes speaks like this, he knew it when he practiced the arm swing ring with him at that time.

"So be it, I'll look forward to your next fights, and, I'm sure, you'll change your mind." With that, Durant hung up the phone.

Xu Xuan thought about it for a while, it didn't matter, he didn't know who won and who lost in this game, why did he want to do so much?

Honestly prepare for the game, isn't it fragrant?
