Chapter 195: Lore and Backcourt Anti-Lore
"Gilbert is God today! It's a performance back to the top, all kinds of unreasonable goals, vaguely let people see the brutal strafing agent zero! "Blaven who is not optimistic about Arenas. Knight was also overwhelmed by Arenas' performance.
The Kings were caught off guard by Arenas' frantic output, and Coach Westafar hurriedly called a timeout.
"Calm down, don't panic! Gilbert. Arenas scores goals, others score goals, no matter how well he plays, there's only one ball on the pitch, we just have to do our best! Run out of tactics, run out of chances, we can have the last laugh! ”
At this time, the game has reached the time to fight the bayonet, only 8 minutes from the end of the game, the Grizzlies led the Kings by 5 points 82-77, after a timeout, the Kings were Tyreck, Jimmy, Garcia, Farid, Cousins, the Grizzlies at this time the lineup on the court is Conley, Allen, Gay, Randolph, Gasol Jr., although Arenas's performance is amazing, not enough Grizzlies coach Hollins still removed Arenas from the court, and sent the main force, at this time the score was ahead, Hollins decided to stabilize the rhythm again, let the team take a break from this exuberant individual singles and replay the team defense to win this game.
However, Coach Hollins obviously made a wrong decision, Conley held the ball in the front court, gave it to Allen, Tyrek pasted it up, Allen tried to squeeze in, Tyrek withstood the offensive line, Allen passed back to Conley, Conley received the ball and directed his teammates to run, and then to Guy, Garcia also entangled!
"The Kings started to mark at halftime, and they stepped up their defense in the final minutes of the game......" Penica worried.
The Kings did begin to strengthen their defense, the Grizzlies pulled down the previously hot Arenas, at this time there was no absolute breaking point on the court, no player needed to wrap up the defense, the Kings can rest assured that they can boldly mark people, in this tense moment, with the Grizzlies' not strong offensive ability, once they encounter a harsh defense, there is a high possibility of mistakes.
The Grizzlies have little offensive time left in this round, but they didn't find a chance to shoot, as the timer is about to go to zero, Conley hurriedly gave the ball to Gasol Jr., facing Cousins' defense Gasol Jr. still shook his footsteps, and then made a small hook shot, but the offensive time before the shot was gone, and the 24-second violation!
The fans of the home team sighed, Gasol Jr. clapped his hands and shook his head with a look of indignation and returned to the court to defend, and then the Kings immediately turned around and played an offense, West received a pass from Terek and hit a jumper!
This is not the end, the Grizzlies faced the sudden increase in the defensive intensity of the Kings, and suddenly felt a little uncomfortable, and failed to play several consecutive offenses, and the scores of the two teams soon returned to the same running line.
"It's not okay to play like this, and the initiative on the court is starting to tilt in favor of the Kings...... The team needs to make adjustments, no matter how well the defense is, there is no guarantee that the opponent will not score this time, and the attack will not be able to play again and again, someone must step up, and this game cannot be lost!! Penica's eyes were a little red, and the Grizzlies were completely on the edge of the cliff after losing the third game......
After a long wait, Arenas, who played a magical role in the fourth quarter, took off his jacket on the sidelines, tucked his shirt into his pants, and prepared to play again!
"At the last minute it seems that Lionel. Coach Hollins is ready to believe in Gilbert once, and at this time, it is true that he can't let the hottest player sit on the bench today, even if Gilbert has already gone downhill, but today he is definitely in the best form of the team, and the changes made by the team at this moment may have unexpected miracle effects! ”
Sure enough, Arenas was definitely the leader of the Grizzlies today, and his hand was so hot! Arenas once again relied on his individual offense to lead the offensive end of the whole team!
"Tyrek. Evans went to the basket to score a two-pointer, and the team then quickly counterattacked, and Gilbert took the ball to the front court to see where the players were playing, what would he choose...... Take a step from beyond the three-point line and shoot directly!! The gods descended to earth!! Hit again!! Gilbert 5 out of 5 tonight! ”
Starting with Arenas' three-pointer, the two teams once again entered a close rivalry.
"Blavin, there are still 22 seconds left in the game, the ball is in our hands, the Kings are 94-93 ahead of us by one point, the initiative is in our hands, it has come to the last moment, it depends on whether we can seize the opportunity!"
"That's right, Pete, I'm sure everyone is in the same mood as me at this time, nervous! Extremely nervous! Today, Gilbert scored 20 points on 7-of-8 shooting and 4-of-4 three-pointers in 14 minutes of playing time, the highest efficiency of the game, and it will be interesting to see if the final offensive team will give Gilbert to deal with it! ”
At the end of the Grizzlies' timeout, Randolph teed off the sideline and gave it to Guy, who got rid of the defense and stepped forward to receive the ball, Guy held the ball on the flank, and gave it directly to Arenas at the top of the arc, it seems that this ball is going to be singled by Arenas!
Arenas, who is among the top players in the league on the Grizzlies, is only the role at the end of the bench, and at this time, the remaining four Grizzlies players on the court are all opening up space for Arenas, as if Arenas is the winner of the Grizzlies at this time.
Arenas faced Jimmy. Butler, the Kings' perimeter leader, and obviously the Kings gave Arenas the most weight tonight.
Arenas was unhurried, at the moment he had forgotten about his body's decline, and only the basket was in his eyes, and at this time he seemed to be back to the year when he was 24 years old.
Lowering his body, dribbling back and forth with both hands, and staring at the timer, the time is almost gone, and the Grizzlies are still behind the score at this time, but Arenas does not plan to leave himself behind, and directly almost finishes the time!
Jimmy is fully focused, this ball can't be defended too fiercely, if you eat a foul, you will lose more than you lose, and if you don't lose position, doing a good job of interference is the best defense.
Arenas suddenly pulls up a three-point shot! Only 1 point behind the Kings, Arenas still shot a three-pointer when he had plenty of time to attack!
"Gilbert suddenly pulled out his hand! It's three points! There is no deciding goal! …… Pregnant! Hit the board! 2 points over! The Kings have just 0.8 seconds left, and they don't have a timeout!! Gilbert, who was the norm back then, killed the game today!! ”
The fans in the stadium were boiling, they thought that this game was definitely won!
Arenas stood proudly, like the former self, the Kings will be full of helplessness, Cousins stood on the backcourt sideline and touched his head helplessly, at this time Tyrek yelled at Cousins: "DeMarcus! The game isn't over yet, go kick off! ”
With 0.8 seconds left and no pause, what can you do?!
Cousins was under Tyreck's order, and the backcourt quickly gave Tyreck, the Grizzlies' defense was not in place, but no one in the audience thought what to do with this little time, Tyrek received the ball and threw the ball out with all his strength!
The ball drew an arc through the whole court, impartial, and hit the board into the net!!
