After successfully attracting the bag, Jackson threw the basketball, and Perkins received the basketball, and with no defender, he successfully hit a three-pointer.

"It's not easy to do!"

Ji Liang is a little annoyed, and it is a bit difficult to prevent the Pacers' offense. All of them are stars, and they all have excellent scoring ability.

In addition to the Nuggets' possession of the ball, Miller chased after Chi Liang, and in addition, other players of the Pacers strengthened the blocking of the passing route and did not give Chi Liang a chance to receive the ball easily.

In order to limit Chi Liang's scoring, Bird has taken various measures to strictly limit Chi Liang.

Billups wanted to pass the ball, but was afraid of being tackled, so he could only try to break through, force Jackson, and then distribute the ball to Stich.

Without hesitation, Stich caught the ball and shot, shooting from 15 feet.

Bang~

Unfortunately, the basketball smashed on the basket.

The Nuggets didn't give up, and McDyes, Fortson and Ji Liang squeezed under the basket to grab the rebound.

With superior reaction speed, in the crowded restricted area, Ji Liang grabbed the best position first, stuck Perkins behind, lightly stretched his ape arms, and grabbed the rebound in the front court.

At the first time, Chi lit up a jump shot.

At this time, Schmitz stretched out his hand to intercept, and in mid-air, Ji Liang stretched out his right hand, mixed with Schmitz, and threw the ball to the basket with his left hand.

Beep~

At the same time, the referee's whistle blew to signal a foul on Schmitz's thug.

Swish~

Ji Liang's luck was good, and the basketball he threw with his hand spun around the basket and finally fell into the basket.

In the later free throws, Ji Liang hit the free throws steadily, and once again scored 2+1, narrowing the score for the team.

The Pacers' possession, and this time Mullin ran out of the open and hit another three-pointer.

This is also the fifth three-pointer he shot, and like Ji Liang, he also maintains a 100% shooting rate.

Soon, Ji Liang broke through with the ball, and after successfully attracting the bag, this time he did not force it, but distributed the ball to Stich, who threw it to win.

In the next few minutes, with the passage of physical strength, the shooting rate of both sides began to decline, even if the Nuggets tried desperately to catch up, but they just missed a breath and did not erase the difference.

During this time, no one replaced the players, everyone present was panting and sweating, but no one dared to relax and did not want to lose the victory of the game due to their own negligence.

Chi Liang held his knees and gasped for breath, even if he reduced the number of shots, he still lost a lot of physical strength, and he was faintly unable to support himself.

It was also the toughest game they've had this season, and everyone was physically and mentally exhausted by such a stalemate.

Compared with the Nuggets, the Pacers are even more uncomfortable, their main roster is seriously aging, even if the state is maintained well, but the physical strength has been affected after all.

Such a stalemate situation is not so much a competition of strength between the two sides, but a test of will, everyone is about to reach the limit of their bodies, and whoever can hold on longer will be able to grasp the advantage.

"There are two minutes left before the end of the game, so everyone hold on, we are still two points ahead!"

At this time, the voice of the Pacers commentator sounded in the arena, and under his guidance, the audience cheered for the team more enthusiastically.

In the last two minutes of the game, the Pacers still had the ball, and Miller temporarily threw off Chi Liang with the help of blocking and picking, and did not wait for Chi Liang to return to defense, and made a quick stop jump shot.

At the critical moment, Miller hit the basket from 16 feet from the basket, widening the gap between the two sides to four points.

This is Reggie Miller, who has a big heart and is accurate at critical moments, as if he is not affected by physical strength.

After switching offense and defense, with the help of McDyce's cover, Ji Liang ran outside the bottom corner three-point line and immediately received a pass from Billups.

Without hesitation, Ji Liang jumped up against Miller and shot a three-pointer again.

Syllable~

Miller also jumped up and slapped Ji Liang's left hand hard.

Beep~

The referee's whistle blows.

Bang~Boom~

The basketball crossed an arc, first smashed into the basket and bounced high, then fell again, and after two spins on the basket, it reluctantly fell into the basket.

After hitting the three-pointer, Ji Liang sighed and forgot about his body's exhaustion for a while.

It was his seventh three-point attempt, and he still maintained a 100 percent shooting percentage. With just one more shot, you can tie the single-game three-point shooting record without conceding a shot.

This record is held by Hornacek and Perkins respectively.

That's right, it's Sam Perkins of the Pacers, on January 15, 1997, Perkins came off the bench as a 23-minute and scored 26 points, 8-of-8 three-pointers, tying Hornacek's record for a single three-point shooting without shooting.

Swish~

At the free throw line, Ji Liang shot the free throw steadily, which was also the first time he completed 3+1 and smoothed the difference between the two sides.

Seeing that the situation was not good, Larry Bird immediately called a timeout, and the Nuggets players were in a good mood, they hugged Chi Liang and slapped Chi Liang's juniors, unable to hide their excitement.

Bird was troubled that the Nuggets must have been demoralized after leveling the difference, and their Pacers, who were also likely to be affected, led most of the game before being wiped out by the opponent before the end of the game.

Bird took a deep breath, he didn't have time to reflect on it, he had to boost the team's morale and orchestrate the last minute or so.

Not long after, the timeout ended, and the two sides began a final fight to the death.

With the help of his teammates' cover, Miller ran out of the open space again, and when the ball arrived, he chose to shoot with an emergency stop again, but was interfered by Ji Liang, and the basketball brushed out of the basket.

At this stage, every rebound counts, and the Pacers wanted to rely on their height advantage to grab rebounds, but they were stuck by the Nuggets inside, and finally Fortson grabbed the defensive rebound.

At the first time, the Nuggets launched a fast attack, with Ji Liang, Billups and Stich flying together in three directions, quickly rushing towards the frontcourt.

After running through the center circle, Ji Liang received a long pass from Fortson, and before Miller pounced, Ji Liang immediately transferred the basketball.

Billups received the basketball, then played with Stich to dump Mullin, and finally Stich scored on a layup to successfully overtake the point difference.

After being overtaken by the Nuggets, the Pacers players had a problem with their mentality, and they were desperate to equalize or overtake the score.

With the help of his teammates' pick-and-rolls, Jackson began to storm the box and wanted to use the throw to score, and it was Fortson again, who successfully completed the block and slapped the basketball to the court.

At the same time, Ji Liang and Miller started one after another, chasing the orange basketball as fast as they could.
