Chapter Twenty-Eight: Victory Over the Spurs!
"The ball is in!!"
Yu Jia, the host of the CCTV live broadcast room, stood up excitedly and shouted: "The ball is in!" Tenth goal! Chen Yu hit the tenth three-pointer in a row! Breaking the nine-pointer streak held by Kobe Bryant in '02! Let's congratulate Chen Yu! β
Zhang Weiping smiled and applauded: "Congratulations, this record-breaking goal is precious, allowing the Hornets to chase the difference with the Spurs, and now the score of the two teams is 86-79, only 7 points apart, there are still three minutes before the end of the game, and the Hornets still have hope." β
"Boom!"
The cheering crowd at the Orlando basketball stadium played crowd after wave, layer after layer.
"Chen!" The DJ holding the microphone excitedly shouted Chen Yu's name: "Our Hornets Chen broke Kobe's three-minute shooting record and ushered in a new era of the NBA, let's cheer for him!" β
"Oh oh oh!"
The atmosphere of the scene has been completely mobilized by the DJ, and the scene is boiling.
"Hey! Dude, you're such a crazy guy! Paul hugged Chen Yu and yelled in his ear excitedly.
The rest of the Hornets came over to celebrate Chen Yu, and the game fell into a timeout.
"Shit!" Bowen, who was sent off on the Spurs bench, pouted disdainfully: "If I'm on the court, you don't want to break this record......"
'He's a very good player.' Suddenly, a voice came.
Bowen was stunned for a moment, and turned his head to see that it was head coach Popovich.
Popovich glanced at Bowen and repeated: "This is a very good player, very spiritual. β
Bowen was a little taken aback.
As far as he knows, when he gets praise from Popovich, it will be at least Ginobili's level!
Could it be that in Popovich's eyes, the Chinese has reached that level?
"This Chinese Chen is a second-round show." Popovich turned to one of the team's staff members.
"That's right, it's the second round, and this year is the contract year." The staff replied.
Popovich nodded, then said, "Go back and look into it and get him to the Spurs." β
Bowen's eyes almost popped out.
"Toot! Honk! β
The Hornets players celebrated for a long time, and the referee finally blew the whistle to remind the game to continue.
It may be that Chen Yu's play stimulated Paul, and in the next two rounds of offense, he was like a god descending from heaven, facing the defenders, hitting two goals in a row, and a steal, assisting Chen Yu to hit a three-pointer three times at the three-point line on the right side, raising the personal record of consecutive hits to 11 times, and completely equalizing the score of the two teams!
There is less than a minute left until the game.
"Steady." Duncan saw that the players were a little impatient, and commanded loudly.
The Spurs attacked, and Parker panted for a dribble across the half court and hoisted the ball directly into the hands of Duncan on the inside.
The game has reached its most intense white heat, and every goal is a key goal that can determine the outcome of the game, so it is better to leave it to the team boss to finish.
Duncan received the ball, backed his back against West, and began to attack.
In the factory game, Duncan has scored 27 points and has 11 rebounds.
"Bang!"
The sound of muscles colliding with muscles made Chen Yu in the distance feel sore again.
David West stared at Duncan's impact.
The game went on to such an extent that every defensive failure could be considered a big mistake, so West even used his strength to feed.
But the huge difference in strength between the two made West's hard work meaningless.
After a violent impact, Duncan turned over and made a jumper, and West had stretched his right arm as far as he could to block Duncan's shot, but he didn't even cover his eyes.
"Bang! Swish! β
The basketball went to the basket and scored two more points steadily.
At this time, the score of the two teams was 88-86, and the Hornets were two points behind.
"Whew."
Chen Yu took a deep breath, braced his body and stepped up his heavy legs, and ran towards the Spurs halfcourt.
"Hey, can you still vote?" Paul asked, turning his head.
"Yes." Chen Yu nodded, not wanting to talk too much, so as not to waste his precious physical energy.
After dribbling over the half, Paul changed direction to break through Parker's defense, entered the inside, and when Duncan came to wrap up, he shook his hand and passed the basketball to the position of Chen Yu on the periphery.
Chen Yu grabbed the basketball with a "snap", took a step back and wanted to jump outside the three-point line, but found that the Spurs were frenzied to come to two people to protect him, one left and one right, violent, and suddenly shuddered, and then passed the ball to Stojakovic, who was already vacant on the side.
After Chen Yu played better and better, Peja Stojakovic slowly became a pseudo-starter, but his strength was very good, and head coach Scott naturally couldn't let him sit on the bench. So when Chen Yu plays, he usually switches from the small forward position to the scoring guard position.
After catching the ball, Peja's face turned a little red.
This ball is obviously a dumping pot!
There were only more than four seconds left in the offensive time, and the player who wrapped Chen Yu had already returned to the defense, and he had no time to make adjustments, so he could only shoot three-pointers.
"Bang!"
Peja closed her eyes in fright.
The shot was missed.
"Roar!"
At this moment, Chandler, who had been suppressed by Duncan, suddenly broke out, jumped hard, grabbed the key frontcourt rebound, and threw the ball back.
That position is Chen Yu, who is temporarily undefended!
"Oops!"
Popovich on the Spurs bench couldn't help but exclaim.
"Good chance!" Yu Jia, who was in the live broadcast room of CCTV Sports Channel, clenched his fists and roared.
"Smack!"
Chen Yu took the ball, suppressed the excitement in his heart, adjusted his body, and made a dry jump shot outside the three-point line.
"Whoosh!"
The basketball was thrown.
The Spurs players opposite Chen Yu watched in despair as the basketball spun and flew to the basket amid the cheers of the fans at the Orlando Basketball Stadium.
βYesοΌβ When the ball was thrown, Chen Yu roared excitedly, learned from the general Gilbert Arenas, turned around and waved in celebration.
"Huh!"
Subsequently, the basketball hollowed into the net, and the churning basketball net became Chen Yu's most shocking background.
"Boom!"
The stadium suddenly became a sea of celebration, and the fans had already begun to celebrate in advance.
With twenty seconds left before the end of the game, the Spurs were left with only about two offensive chances.
"Toot!"
Spurs head coach Popovich called a timeout and laid out a tactic.
But in the end, after the Spurs missed a three-point shot, they were still unable to recover, and the score was fixed at 86-89. The Spurs lost the game.
"Toot!"
When the final whistle blew, all the players and coaching staff on the Hornets bench rushed onto the field to cheer and celebrate.
