Chapter 175: The Battle of the Seven
Two of the most beautiful words in the world, grab seven......
"I've been through the crazy March of the college league, in the knockout format, a single game is a winner, a win or a loser, that's the feeling, it's a win or a loser game."
The Fortune Players came to Boston and started the tie-break in the Eastern Conference Finals.
Standing on the floor of the opponent's home stadium, in the face of away adversity, facing hostile fans, in the base camp of the opposing team, there are only teammates, and the coaching staff.
This is a tough test for the Fortune Team, and its importance is comparable to that of the Grand Final.
"We're going to grab seven, and I want us to give it our all, and if we do that, we're going to give us a chance, take Boston off the horse, and get out of the way, okay?"
Before the game, Meng Xiaohao was in the players' tunnel, encouraging his teammates.
The tea-pouring arena is full of people, full of seats, and the seven battles are about to start.
……
Meng Xiaohao, facing the defense of the defenders, stepped back, and on the left side of the free throw line, made a difficult shot, scored the ball, and scored two points.
Middleton split the ball, the ball was touched by the defender, but it was not broken, the ball still fell into Derek's hands, and Derek rushed up with a brisk stride, and his hands vigorously poured into the frame.
This level of offensive and defensive intensity is unprecedented and unparalleled in this series.
Boston's big forward faced the defense on the outside, and it was a heavy shot that hit the ball and scored a three-point shot.
In another offensive round, the Boston player still found the power forward who ran out of the open space, and without the slightest hesitation, passed the ball to him.
Boston's power forward is at point guard, and again he makes a three-point shot, and the ball hits!
He's already hit three three-pointers, and his hands are hot right now.
Turned his head, it was him again, he was beaten on the left side of the basket by the defender, suddenly a quick turn, a sharp stop under the basket, a strong layup hit, and caused two plus one!
Boston's big forward is unstoppable today!
Derrick launched a counter-attack and passed the ball to Meng Xiaohao, who in turn passed the ball to Middleton on the outside.
Middleton didn't have a trace of adjustment, shot a three-pointer, and hit!
Another offensive round, Middleton received the ball, directly shook the defender with a feint, adjusted it, and shot again with three points, and the ball hit!
Even if you have Boston with your big forward today, Middleton is better than the three-pointer.
And Meng Xiaohao was not to be outdone, through the change of rhythm, one changed direction to shake the defenders, burst into the inner line, and threw successfully.
The two sides fought hard.
And Boston's big forward is still undiminished, with the help of the center's cover, his hands are up and down, three-point shots, and the ball is in the middle of the ball.
Then he came to the front court again, and with the help of a difficult three-point shot from the cover, the water splashed again.
Boston's power forward made five of five three-pointers in the first half and scored 21 points......
……
At the end of the first half, the Revolutionaries returned to the locker room with a seven-point lead with their power forward's near-anti-sky performance.
"We need to do better! We're going to use our body language, you know? We need to work harder, we need to be more aggressive and I believe we can do it! ”
"Hey guys, listen, it's the last 24 minutes, let's go all out!"
"Just like Meng Xiaohao said before the game, this is a game of winning and losing, and if you don't succeed, you will become a benevolent, so I hope you will go all out, I believe in you!"
"Remember! Bear down! ”
"The Fortunes of New York!"
“Fight!”
……
Now that the game is in the third quarter, Boston has a seven-point lead, but against the menacing Fortune Players, this lead may not be so secure.
Just look at the Fortune team's offensive round, and there are ten seconds left to be overwhelmed......
Derek hit the defender with his back, and then wanted to make a pass, which was given to Meng Xiaohao.
Meng Xiaohao didn't hesitate, a three-point defense on top, and his hand was up and down!
Today, Meng Xiaohao's hand felt hot and hot.
It was a good start to the third quarter for the New York Fortunes.
"Come on!"
Meng Xiaohao was extremely excited after scoring three points, he was very excited throughout the game, and his idea of knocking down the revolutionaries may have surpassed anyone in the team.
"That's what we're supposed to do! Let's keep fighting like this, we can! ”
Middleton distributed the ball to Meng Xiaohao, Meng Xiaohao moved sideways, shook off the defender, shot a three-pointer, and the ball hit again.
Meng Xiaohao continued his feel and scored a second consecutive three-pointer.
"Derek! Derek! ”
In the process of returning to defend, Garcia called Derrick over......
"You need to be aggressive and aggressive, you know? Come on! ”
All Derrick on the counter-attack rushed to the free-throw line with the ball, stood up to the defender's defense, and crushed the interior with his body.
Even if a defender fouls, he can't stop him.
Just watch Derek slap a two-handed basket and dunk it into two plus one.
……
The final quarter arrived, and in the final quarter of the Eastern Conference Finals, the two sides were tied.
Garcia encouraged his players during the break......
"12 minutes, brothers, we only have 12 minutes, whether we can win this game or not, it's up to the last 12 minutes!"
"Boston's reign should be ended by us!"
Boston's point guard switched defenses with the help of pick-and-roll, changed direction and dribbled, shot directly outside the three-point line, and splashed in the three-point shot.
A long-range three-pointer from Boston point guard broke the balance of the game in the fourth quarter and gave Boston the lead.
Throughout the game, there were 23 alternate leads and 9 draws.
It's like Ali and Fraser, it's like a battle of hearts.
Boston's quarterback tried to break through the line with Middleton's defense, but Middleton blocked his way.
And Boston's center cut into the air, broke through to the basket, and on the left wing, received a pass from the quarterback.
But suddenly, Kobo fell from the sky and ruthlessly rejected Boston's layup with a pegboard hat.
Meng Xiaohao broke through the defenders and rushed to the basket, but was directly covered by the big forward who came over the defense, and Meng Xiaohao was also turned on his back by himself.
In the confrontation in the fourth quarter, both sides scored very little, and the game, from the offensive battle in the first three quarters, became a defensive battle in the fourth quarter.
It's a great test of the players' mentality, and as long as they're calm, they can win.
The audience was boiling, and although the Fortune Team received countless boos, there were also many Fortune Players fans at the scene.
The fourth quarter has reached the last moment, win or lose, in one move!
