Chapter 237: Goodbye Boston

After three quarters of-for-tat, the fourth quarter of the game looked eerily quiet. A kind of gray-white dust flying in the Silent Hill, but the whole street is silent, the picture is really reflected in the stadium at this moment.

The two people were only ten steps apart, but the demeanor when they confronted each other seemed to be thousands of meters apart, but the fierceness in their eyes was clearly the appearance of two bloodthirsty thugs fighting in close combat.

The first to shoot is Mo Xi, Mo Xi is not as strong as last season in terms of physical confrontation, but the Celtics' inside line is not at the championship level, Mo Xi lowered his center of gravity, forcibly received the ball under the two people, and at the moment of receiving the ball, he quietly handed a elbow backwards, Mo Xi's elbow is not very heavy, just to interfere with the opponent's judgment at the first time.

After receiving the ball, Mo Xi did not directly let the ball stop, but held the ball with one hand, leaned on the other person who was holding him, and at the same time leaned on his shoulder to squeeze a gap, turned his back and rushed out between the two people.

Mo Xi was in front of him, and there was no one in front of him.

It's not completely unmanned, just a second before Mo Xi started, Houston just took the Celtics players away from the middle, at this time he was in a relatively comfortable defensive position, but the momentum of Mo Xi's impact was too scary, even if it was the playoffs, even if the current Celtics still had hope of victory, in the face of Mo Xi's attack, he still retreated, after all, even if he went up to make up for the defense, it was more likely that he would not be able to prevent it, and he would have to take another foul.

But this is the place where the playoffs are playoff, where countless myths and miracles take place.

Celtics center Mark Blanc didn't choose to give up after being passed by Moxi, he turned around and chased back, but Moxi was too fast, he just took a step, and Moxi was almost to the basket. Mark Bronk gritted his teeth and pounced on the fit, trying to use his own weight to pull Mo Xi off.

Mo Xi was in the air, only to feel that he was suddenly hanging two truck tires on his shoulders, Mo Xi felt that he was already shaky in the air, Mo Xi immediately adjusted his posture to prevent injury when he landed, and at the same time threw the basketball in his hand to the basket as much as possible.

Because Mo Xi was already very close to the basket, despite the very inconsequential shot, the ball was very lucky to stumble into the basket.

"Toot ~"

Mo Xi scored a 2+1 in the fourth quarter.

When it comes to scoring stability, especially in the fourth quarter, no one can compare to a super center, Mo Xi is like this, the four centers of the year are like this, and even those desolate beasts in ancient times are like this. Even though the perimeter players have better scoring efficiency and scoring explosiveness, only these super interior players can really guarantee that I will score when I need to score.

There is, of course, one exception, and that is when God is on your side.

Because of that miraculous story in the past, Pierce felt that God would never have been able to play in a green jersey, so now, he may only be counted as Jesus on his side.

Pierce swore he had just heard someone whisper something in his ear, very brief

"Go over there, get to that position, catch the ball and shoot straight threes."

Pierce didn't know what he was thinking, he felt as if he had been manipulated, so he walked over step by step, received a pass from his teammate, and then he just stood up to Anthony's defense and threw a three-pointer over his head.

"Huh~"

Hollow hit, Pierce returned a three-pointer.

As a center, especially the center of the team's offense, he will face much more difficulties in the fourth quarter than a team with outside players as the core, because in the fourth quarter, the defensive intensity and penalty scale will be in an unprecedented state, in other words, in the fourth quarter, although Moxi's offense will be very lethal, he will have a much harder time scoring than Pierce.

The Celtics directly defended him around the front, what kind of joke is this, this is the battle of the dignity of the Celtics, how can the dignity lost in the front and the dignity of losing this loss be at the same level.

Jason Williams is indeed a good passer, but his passing style is extremely gorgeous, the type of sword and forward, although the basic skills are also solid, but for passing masters like Kidd, he is still a little behind, especially for the part of passing to the center.

Jason Williams' pass was high enough to avoid the defenders in front of him altogether, but it was also high enough to give the rest of the Celtics plenty of time to react.

At the moment when Mo Xi received the ball, he was directly held down by the three players of the Celtics, even if Mo Xi had a good movement in his hand, there was no room to play at this time, and Mo Xi was stealed.

The Celtics countered with a quick break.

The Knicks are still near-perfect in place.

The Celtics didn't give up on this fast break, and it was obviously easier to use the fast break to cut through the Knicks' defense than a positional battle.

Pierce made a sharp stop from beyond the three-point line and shook Anthony, but instead of making a shot, he handed the ball to Ricky Davis, who held the ball and went straight to the basket.

The lack of experience began to show itself in Anthony, who landed and quickly lunged back inside, only to take two steps before Ricky Davis stopped, turned around, and flicked the ball at Pierce.

Anthony, who had been shaken in a big circle, had to pounce again, only this time he was not so lucky.

Pierce pushed forward with his shoulders to block Anthony, then dribbled himself in the opposite direction, stepped back and hit a jumper.

Faced with such a situation, the Knicks began to use tactics specially created for Moxi, and after several turnovers, basketball finally fell into the hands of Moxi, but the Celtics' defense was very tough, which consumed a lot of time, and the offensive time left for Moxi was not sufficient.

Mo Xi shook left and right, one turned and retreated, followed by another false shot, which seemed to be a cross step, but in fact it was a turn and wiped into the basket again. But there was already a Celtics defender waiting for him under the basket. Mo Xi had no space, and in desperation, Mo Xi had to distribute the ball to Houston in the opposite corner, but unfortunately Houston's bottom corner three points did not hit.

Fortunately, this is a short rebound, just above Mo Xi's head, slightly pressed down the center of gravity, felt the pressure around him, Mo Xi jumped, and couldn't catch this rebound under the confrontation, he chose to point the ball to the basket.

"Dangchang"

Mo Xi's rebound did not go in, and the rebound was also won by the Celtics.

Without thinking about it, the Celtics threw another round of fast breaks, only this time they were not so lucky, although Pierce crushed Anthony all the way to the basket, but thanks to Anthony's blocking, Mo Xi successfully returned to the defense in place, appeared directly from behind Pierce, and pressed the ball directly on the rebound with a big hat.

Although the Knicks' defense is not weak, Pierce is really strong tonight, and Mo Xi is being taken care of at this time, and the others began to mess up, and the Celtics magically tied the score.

There are 42 seconds left in the race. The two sides were drawn, and the Celtics had just used up their last timeout.

The Knicks decisively replaced their most powerful combination at this critical moment, Mo Xi, Wang Zhizhi, Anthony, Sprewell and Arenas. It was a strange substitution because it was a goal from Celtic up front.

It's just that the next moment, all the strangeness seems to be less strange again.

The Celtics served the sideline ball, and Mo Xi used his huge body to constantly press, and at the moment his brain was ethereal, and he gave everything to his instincts. It turns out that there are times when the human body's instinctive reaction is much faster than their thinking.

Mo Xi stealed.

The Knicks tried to attack quickly, but unfortunately there was only one person in the frontcourt, and in the case of huge physical exertion, Mo Xi was not fully sure to complete this fast attack in such a situation, so he could only slow down the speed first and prepare for this positional battle.

Arenas spent time dribbling on the perimeter, and Mo Xi spun around like a wild boar rolling in a mud puddle on the Celtics' interior line, without stopping.

When there were still ten seconds left in the offensive time, Arenas suddenly started and made a blocking and dismantling cooperation with Wang Zhizhi, and gave the ball to Wang Zhizhi who came to the three-point line, who did not choose to shoot, but used his height advantage to hoist the ball to Mo Xi on the inside.

Seeing Mo Xi catch the incoming ball steadily, the green sea of the whole court stagnated for a moment, and then a louder noise sounded.

Mo Xi had already blocked out all distractions at this moment, and among the Celtic players who quickly surrounded him, Mo Xi danced.

Dribble, turn, dribble again, a little, feint to turn around, and then turn back, with the help of the force of the reversal, Mo Xi jumped up and down slightly at the same time, zheng'ge'ren's whole person instantly broke away from the defense of everyone in the Celtics, held the ball high, and shot.

The basketball slid cleanly into the net, splashing a white wave, and the Knicks took the lead again.

The Celtics immediately decided to foul and sent the Knicks to the free-throw line.

At this point, the Knicks are only two points ahead of the Celtics, and a missed free throw will leave the opponent with a little respite.

The Celtics' foul fell on Arenas.

Arenas was under pressure, and a large part of the reason why the Knicks played so hard today was because of his problems, and it was true that he and Moxi's pick-and-roll offense was too monotonous and easy to target, but writing down these two free throws was time for him to prove himself.

In the first free throw, Arenas threw the ball smoothly, and the basketball resolutely drilled into the Nets and won the first free throw cleanly.

In the second penalty, Arenas was a little nervous, and apparently, the Celtics players were even more nervous. Arenas dribbled a lot before he could make a shot, but at the moment of shot 2 he realized that the ball was a little off, and he hurriedly used his little finger to bring the ball back, and Arenas's anxious action made the ball finally fly in the direction of the basket, but it bounced on the basket several times.

One, two, three, four...

Everyone in the audience had a blank brain at the moment, and everyone was waiting for the result of this ball.

Finally, the ball bounced into the basket.

The hearts of all the Celts at the moment are at rock bottom.

No, there is one exception!

Paul Pearce didn't say much, at this time the Celtics had no timeout, he immediately picked up the ball, said it between the referee's fingers, and sent the ball out directly, and the game was not over.

The Celtics quickly advanced to the frontcourt, and Pierce took the ball in a near-snatch manner, holding the ball as if holding a bomb, and rushed frantically to the Knicks' basket.

With a strong body and a unique rhythm of three slow steps, Pierce successfully burst to the basket, and at this moment the fans stood up and raised their arms high.

"Smack~"

However, a ruthless giant palm stuck the cheers that had not yet come out of the fans' mouths directly in their throats, and a big hat blocked Pierce.

However, the block seemed to be a little crooked, and the ball fell to Pierce's side after being capped, and Pierce subconsciously scooped up the ball and shot again.

"Smack~"

Another block, only this time Lady Luck seemed to be on the Knicks' side, and the basketball that fell off the hat smashed into Pierce's body and went out of bounds.

Knicks backcourt ball.

As soon as he served, Pierce fouled Arenas and sent him to the free throw line.

The first penalty was easily caught again, with only 2.4 seconds left before the end of the game, and the Celtics did not even have a timeout, so it can be said that they have completely lost hope of victory.

Arenas took a deep breath, hit a free throw, the Knicks' victory was almost in the bag, and he didn't have so much pressure on him, and the last free throw was thrown out very relaxed, but he seemed to be a little relaxed, and the free throw hit the front of the basket and bounced out.

The basket was a mess for a moment, but the Celtics clearly had the advantage, with green and white jerseys all under the basket.

However, Mo Xi didn't give up, and he used his reach on the edge of the crowd to keep pointing the ball out to his side.

Mo Xi used a speed that is a few points more agile than an ape, and continuously lit the ball, and actually pointed the rebound out of the Celtics' pile, and the Celtics wanted to foul, but it was too late, the referee blew the whistle at the end of the game, and the Knicks defeated the Celtics 102:97, and swept the Green Shirts 4:0 to advance.

Pierce stood under the basket, feeling confused, he didn't dare to look up, for fear that when he looked up, he would see the little girl's smiling face holding back tears. But he stared at the floor, and it was full of the little girl's disappointed but confident look.

In the celebration of the Knicks, Mo Xi walked to the players' tunnel, waving goodbye as he walked.

Choking and Strange Novels|w~w~w.

Goodbye, Boston!
