"Vince, do you think we can win?" Looking at Carter's desperate face for victory, Yiyang asked a stupid question.

"Hmph, as long as you're here, I'm confident." Carter waved his hand, if he didn't have confidence in the MVP, then who should he have confidence in?

"You know Vince, you guys are by my side, that's why I dare to calmly shoot key shots again and again." Yiyang patted Carter's shoulder, and then immediately gathered to listen to Carlisle's tactics.

Carter froze in his seat, his eyes not taking his eyes off Yiyang for a long time. Then, Carter smiled. As a "useless" veteran, it is really not easy to have such a sense of belonging in the team. It's no wonder that guy is under 24 years old to become a team leader, and to be a leader, you have to not only be strong, you also have to win people's hearts.

If he could, Carter would really like to spend the rest of his career following Yiyang......

"In the last 20 seconds, with Popovich's character, he will definitely choose a more secure two! So, Rudy, I want you to protect the exclusion zone. Whoever dares to make a mistake under the basket, you let him taste it! ”

Goebel nodded, and it was obvious that he was still a little nervous about the moment. But Yiyang is not worried that Gobert will do something bad, as soon as that guy steps on the court, he will immediately become bloodthirsty.

"Dirk, stick to Tim for me, it's better to keep him from receiving the ball! If he catches the basketball, force him to shoot from the outside. Anyway, don't let that guy get close to the basket. ”

Nowitzki nodded, a critical moment he'd experienced countless times in his career. The Germans have long been able to deal with this with a normal mind.

"Andre, Leonard, that kid was active today, he's already scored 17 points. His shot, while inconsistent, is not without threat. So, don't let him shoot. If he bursts into the box, Rudy will take care of him. ”

"Don't worry, boss, I'll let him walk around without eating!" Iguodala patted his chest, as long as you don't make him a star player, he's willing to do anything.

"Tony, Danny. Green could just be a feint for the next 20 seconds. So, don't be deceived by him, stay calm, and don't shake up. Popovich doesn't choose a three-point shot, so no matter how he feints, you don't get cheated so as not to get fouled. ”

"I'll take care of it, boss." Tony. Aaron made an OK gesture and the guy always kept his enthusiasm going, no matter what the game situation was.

In the end, Carlisle's eyes fell on Yiyang, the young leader. In this game, Yiyang has cut down the data of 27 points, 10 assists and 3 steals, and he has done everything he can. This guy with a stable performance can be trusted at all times.

"I won't talk to you much about defense, pay attention to changing defenses after blocking. If, if the Spurs miss, we still have time...... Also, I want you to be ready to complete the lore! ”

"yes, okay." Yiyang's answer was as simple and straightforward as ever, as if what he would go through later was just an ordinary round. But this is the most critical time of the whole game!

Sometimes even Carlisle thinks this guy is a little scaryly calm. Nothing seemed to be able to shake that string in his heart.

After explaining everything to the starting five, an electronic beep sounded, which meant that the decisive moment for the game was coming.

But when the Spurs players came on the court, Carlisle's heart suddenly fell into a trough. Danny, who performed well outside the three-point line today. Green was pinned to the bench by Popovich, and he was replaced by the mediocre Manu. Ginobili!

That's the kind of veteran that's it, even if he doesn't shine in the whole game, but when it counts, you still get nervous because of his presence. Killing a game is as normal for them as eating and sleeping, and they don't have to wait until they're in good shape.

Once Ginobili comes on the pitch, the situation on the field is bound to be more complicated than Carlisle imagined. Just now he thinks Danny. Green was just a feint, but right now, Ginobili was a dagger-wielding thug who could put a knife in the heart of the Mavericks at any moment.

But now that the timeout is over, Carlisle has to call another timeout unless the players have to deal with any changes that come next.

Carlisle doesn't plan to use up the last timeout yet, and if the Spurs miss the offense, this last timeout will be their capital to kill the game!

Tony. When Allen stepped onto the pitch, he was visibly taken aback. Popovich, that guy, really won't let anyone else expect everything.

But Ginobili is in very average form today, maybe Popovich replaced the Argentine, just to confuse the public? Tony. Allen set up a defensive stance, whether it was Ginobili or Danny. Green, don't even think about getting through easily!

The Spurs sent out the baseline ball, and on the rebounding timer, the 20-second number began to decrease.

Even though it was only the last 20 seconds, Parker calmly held his pace after half-time. With 10 seconds left in the game, Parker moved.

Ginobili, who was originally strolling around the bottom corner, suddenly dodged out, Tony. Allen immediately moved sideways, but collided with Duncan, who was covering without the ball!

Ginobili borrowed Duncan's cover to get to the top of the three-point line, and Parker passed the ball. Seeing Ginobili holding the ball, Carlisle's heart was about to jump out! This point I didn't expect wouldn't just be Popovich's trump card!

Tony. As soon as Allen made up for it, Ginobili immediately broke through with the ball, just in time to take advantage of Tony. This is the timing of Aaron's center of gravity rushing forward. An old ghost is an old ghost, every action, every moment is well thought out!

Ginobili managed to break through Tony. Aaron, the demon knife is unsheathed, flashing a cold light!

Gobert was on the lookout, and if Ginobili chose to go to the basket, he would certainly not be polite to that bald man!

Ginobili didn't stop, he approached the three-second zone, Gobert adjusted his position in small steps, and it was coming!

With one foot in the three-second zone, Ginobili really jumped off the frame!

Goebel did not hesitate and immediately jumped high! No matter how brilliant the Argentine was before, today, Gobert will not let him succeed!

Gobert's palm jerked hard and fanned the basketball in Ginobili's hand. However, at this moment, Ginobili actually collected the ball in the air.

This not only allowed him to dodge Gobert's block, but also allowed himself to pass past Gobert.

After dodging the defense, Ginobili stretched out again and threw the ball to the basket. Before Gobert could turn around after he landed, the sound of the Nets tumbling had already jumped into his ears.

"In! The ball is in! Manu. Ginobili, the great Argentinian, son of the great San Antonio! He fooled Rudy with an incredible pull-up layup. Gobert, successful hit! "Mike. Brin's roar appeared on the televisions of all fans across the United States.

At this time in San Antonio, countless fans raised their arms and cheered. Mike. Brin didn't know what he was screaming about, but he knew very well that he was too excited to express in words!

The Spurs rushed to Ginobili and surrounded the balding old guy. Gobert smashed the basketball to the floor in frustration, he should have expected it!

"Pause, pause!" Carlisle yelled at the referee, knowing that it was only then that people would react, and the game would be over with 1.7 seconds left! The game isn't over yet, and the Mavericks still have time!

But in the last 1.7 seconds, what can the Mavericks do? Manu. The myth created by Ginobili is difficult to rewrite.

"Boss...... I'm sorry ......" After the game, Gobert hung his head. He didn't expect that a guy who was nearly 40 years old would be able to make a mistake on his head.

"You don't have to apologize Rudy, you don't have to blame yourself. It's already happened, and there's no use dwelling on it. Now, it's up to us to figure out how to turn a defeat into a win in the last 1.7 seconds! "Carlisle didn't blame anyone, he didn't blame Tony. Allen didn't lash out at Gobert either, because even he didn't expect Ginobili to suddenly come out and finish the kill.

Damn Popovich, what a cunning old guy. The more you can't think of anything, the more Popovich uses something.

Carlisle tried to make himself forget about that layup, 1.7 seconds, and he couldn't give up yet!

Carlisle's tactics were as everyone expected, everyone covered Yiyang, Yiyang took the cover and ran out of the three-point line to try to shake off the defense, and then received the ball to shoot, without time to hesitate.

"Vince, you came on at the last minute and replaced Tony. You know, at times like these, I need all the guys who can shoot. After arranging the tactics, Carter himself didn't expect Carlisle to call out his name.

In the last 1.7 seconds, do you have any time to play?

Tony. Allen doesn't have any problem with that, this kind of attacking round, there is no use in sending him on the field.

Carter nodded, playoffs, the last moments...... This scene is really similar to that summer 13 years ago.

The game restarted, and although it was only the last 1.7 seconds, the Spurs players did not slack off. They defended very tightly, and everyone except Gobert on the serve was in a mid-range position, huddled together.

This kind of moment is often the most brutal moment in the basketball game. Defenders need to do everything they can to stop their opponents from running. The attacker, on the other hand, has to use his body to build a wall for the finisher, so that he can receive the basketball and shoot smoothly.

Yiyang, as the number one dangerous element, is naturally surrounded in the middle. Everyone get ready, the most brutal hand-to-hand combat in basketball is about to begin!

The referee passed the ball to Gobert and blew the whistle on his chest. This whistle made everyone move!

Yiyang tried to rush out of the crowd, and Nowitzki and Iguodala made a double cover for him!

After Parker and Leonard were knocked away, Dior made up for it in time.

At this time, there is not much time left before the serve, but Yiyang has not yet had a chance. I have to say that Popovich's defensive arrangement is really flawless!

If the ball can't be released, the ball will be exchanged after the violation, and then it will really be lost!

Yiyang hurriedly gestured to Gobert, Gobert understood, his eyes were staring at Yiyang, but his hand passed the ball to the bottom corner of the left side close to him!

Everyone was stunned, including the Spurs players and Popovich. This basketball finally passed to Vince, who had just come on the court. Carter in his hands!

In 2001, Carter still flew on the basket every day, and fought with Iverson's 76ers in Game 7 of the Eastern Conference semifinals. Thirteen years later, Carter fell from the top of the basket to the Mavericks' bench, but he was in the same position, in the same situation, and received the same damn basketball.

1.7 seconds, Carter didn't have time to hesitate, he only knew that if he wanted to play in the finals and win the championship, he had to do his part! If, like other veterans, he chooses to "rub" an O'Brien Cup at the end of his career, then Carter would rather not!

So, Carter holds the ball and prepares to shoot. Ginobili, who had just completed the stunner, was obviously confused and passed the ball to Carter, what was the situation? He jumped up with Carter's raised arm, only to realize that it was just a fake throw.

In the last 1.7 seconds, that guy was calm enough to know how to fake the throw!

Flying Ginobili, time is running out. In this same place, Carter seems to see the last second of 13 years ago.

What would his career look like if he had made that three-pointer 13 years ago to help the Raptors beat the 76ers and reach the Eastern Conference Finals?

There was no if, he went through so many years of ordeal and finally fell to Dallas and became a platoon in Tony. Aaron and Nick. The third substitute after Young.

But so what? Lao Tzu is still one of the best guys on the planet!

Carter took a shot, his right foot raised slightly, and everything was no different from 13 years ago.

The old guy's eyes are fixed on basketball, and he no longer has the edge of 13 years ago, but he is more mature.

The red light on the rebounding timer came on, and Carter closed his eyes. All he felt was the floor under his feet shaking, as if there had been an earthquake.

Carter curled the corners of his mouth slightly, the game, it's over.
