The neckline of Yiyang's jersey was already soaked with sweat, his chest was heaving violently, and his wet skin looked like an unlucky guy who had just been hit by heavy rain.

Kidd, recovering from an injury at home, stared nervously at the TV screen as the game ended with 53.9 seconds left and the Mavericks still trailing by one point. Before that, Yiyang had missed 3 shots in a row. The impact of physical fitness on Yiyang has surfaced, and no one knows if Yiyang will be able to stabilize the situation at the last critical moment.

"Today was probably Westbrook's best game against Yi, as he scored 28 points on 56 percent shooting, and only one of those 28 points came from the free throw line. Westbrook finally had the upper hand once, and this season he has been impeccable! "ESPN and TNT have both selected Westbrook as the player of the match in advance. In their opinion, it is already very difficult for the Mavericks to turn the tables around.

The difference of 1 point is indeed not big, but whether this 1 point is good or not depends on the situation.

Today, Westbrook is aggressively looking for physical confrontations, both on the offensive and defensive ends. Undoubtedly, this is one of the reasons why Yiyang's physical energy is quickly depleted. Westbrook's strategy paid off, and as Yiyang's fitness continued to decline, Westbrook played more and more smoothly.

At this time, the lens of the ESPN photographer gave a close-up of Yiyang on the bench. This guy's tired appearance really worries Mavericks fans.

"Well, after the timeout, Dirk, you try it at the middle and close ranges. If it doesn't work, pull it away again and give it to the singles. Listen, don't put all the pressure on yourself. We just need one more goal, one more damn goal, and the pressure will all fall on the Thunder! Carlisle said, gesturing a finger.

He was still a little worried about Yiyang's stability, so Carlisle decided to try it with Dirk first. Nowitzki didn't perform well in the regular season, but he has been brave since entering the playoffs. He has scored 25 points today, and although his shooting percentage is average, he is still reliable in key moments.

Yiyang has no objection to Carlisle's arrangement, he is not the kind of person who wants to fight for the boss in everything. As long as it can help the team win, whoever throws the key ball is the same.

As soon as Kale drew his tactics on the tactical board, the timeout was over. He hurriedly explained two more sentences, and the players slowly went on the field.

At this point, Carlisle replaced Carter, allowing Terry, a defender with more offensive firepower, to partner with Yiyang. John Terry has been in good form today, with 17 points now on his score.

Terry's arrival on the court undoubtedly made it very difficult for the Thunder to defend. Although Yiyang missed three times in a row before, even if this kind of guy can't shoot in the whole game, you don't dare to let him go for half a point. John Terry was on fire today, and you're not sure Carlisle wouldn't use him to shoot key shots. Not to mention Nowitzki, the Germans have always been a big killer at critical moments. The Mavericks have a total of three potential offensive points on the floor, which undoubtedly poses a huge challenge to the Thunder's defense.

The game restarted with the Mavericks attacking. On the rebound, the numbers on the timer began to beat. Yiyang is not in a hurry, this is not the first time he has experienced a desperate moment. From the NCAA to his second professional season, Yiyang has long been accustomed to seeing big scenes!

After Yiyang controlled the ball for half time, Westbrook, who was playing excitedly, immediately entangled. This guy used his strong body to constantly put pressure on Yiyang, and it was not easy for Yiyang to dribble steadily.

At this point, Terry suddenly made a counter-run from the mid-range position and went beyond the three-point line. Sephorosa "Swiss Army Knife" was delayed by Haywood's off-ball block, and Terry got a fleeting shot!

"Stop him! Stop him! "Thunder coach Scott. Brooks nervously shouted on the sidelines, Yiyang quickly played the ball, and Terry caught it steadily!

However, Seferosa has always been a strong defender on the perimeter, and although he was delayed by the off-ball block, he still relied on his strong willpower to get to Terry.

By the time Terry received the basketball and turned to face the basket to shoot, the vicious Swiss had already made up for it.

Without a chance, Terry did not choose to make a reluctant move, but continued to observe the situation.

Meanwhile, Yiyang has opened up a bit of distance to Westbrook Clara by running off the ball. The Thunder's defensive center of gravity instantly leaned towards Yiyang, and this guy's interspersed running position is often very deadly!

Yiyang's run took away the Thunder's defensive attention, and at this time, Terry hoisted the ball high into the penalty area. The real endpoint of the Mavericks is Nowitzki!

Dirk received the basketball, and it was not easy to single-handedly take on the strong man of Ibaka. But let's not forget, Nowitzki has already scored 25 points on Ibaka's head today. Ibaka's attempt to defend against the Germans was also not an easy task.

Nowitzki took a step back with the ball, but Ibaka was like a mountain and unmoved. But the real purpose of Dirk's recoil is not actually to advance, just to confuse the other party.

After pushing back, Nowitzki stepped back and turned for a jumper. Turning over and jumping near the three-second zone, the German is still very confident. Even though Ibaka is a good jumper, he struggles to get a block directly on Nowitzki's head, which is a high shot.

Just when Nowitzki turned around and was about to lift the basketball, Durant, the "long-handed monster", suddenly arrived and cut off the ball in Nowitzki's hand.

Nowitzki looked at Durant in amazement, when did this guy come over!?

In fact, Brooks has long had a strategy in place to defend Nowitzki. Durant's sudden trap is not accidental, but premeditated.

Seeing this situation, Yiyang hurriedly turned around and ran wildly and quickly returned to defense. Durant takes a big step, one step as someone else's two steps, and launches a fast attack by himself!

Although Yiyang's defense is very fast, he is only 1.93 meters tall, and it seems that there is no way to stop Durant, who is as tall as an interior player.

Yiyang had no choice but to grit his teeth. When Durant was about to get close to him, his feet were steady, his hands were on his crotch, and he wanted to use his body to make Durant an offensive foul!

Durant didn't expect Yiyang to suddenly make such a move, and he hit it hard before he had time to brake.

Durant's impact was very strong, and Yiyang only felt that it was dark in front of him, and he was knocked backwards. And what about Durant? After knocking over Yiyang, he still used his arm length advantage to throw the ball into the frame. As the fans at the Chesapeake Energy Arena cheered, the referee blew the whistle.

"Offensive foul, goal nullified!" The referee crossed his hands and vetoed Durant's crucial goal.

Durant didn't complain, he knew very well that it was indeed an offensive foul. If the referee doesn't blow it, he has nothing to refute.

But the Thunder fans weren't happy, seeing that it was a chance to kill the game, and the referee said no to it. There was a huge boo at the scene, and I don't know if they were booing Yiyang or the referee.

"Steady! Steady! Defend seriously and don't give them any gaps! "Brooks is getting more and more nervous, neither side is successful in attack, the one-point advantage is still there, but the time is getting less and less. Now whoever scores another goal on both sides is a fatal goal!

The Mavericks regrouped with 30 seconds left in the game. Each side had one attacking opportunity, and these two attacks were also the two most important attacks of the game.

The panting Yiyang gestured to his teammates to hurry up and get into position, just after being hit by Durant, Yiyang could be hit enough.

After half-time, Yiyang quickly handed over the ball and did not entangle with Westbrook. As Kidd instructed, you can't play against an opponent like Westbrook, you have to beat him in other ways.

Yiyang's running position is still very positive, even though he has been sweating profusely, he has not given up.

Terry passed the ball to Dirk again, but Durant's bag was quickly lifted. Nowitzki, who kept his eyes open, didn't get another steal, but he also lost a shot. You know, Durant's height and arms are raised high, and his height is no shorter than that of a real interior player. Nowitzki, with the interference of the two gibbons, Ibaka and Durant, was naturally unable to shoot.

There was no way, he had to give the ball to Marion, who was temporarily empty. But Durant's return defense was very fast, and he didn't give Marion a chance to shoot at all!

"The Thunder's defense is too tight! The Mavericks stand no chance! Barkley shook his head, last year, Nowitzki and Yiyang could also turn the Thunder's three-second zone upside down. But this year, it's obviously a lot harder.

Yiyang is getting stronger, and this group of young people on the Thunder team is also getting stronger. Nowitzki, as for it, is slowly regressing.

The ball was passed several times, but there was still no chance. In the final three seconds of 24 seconds of offensive time, Terry made a bold shot from outside the three-point line. But Sefrosa's timely interference allowed Terry's shot to be completely off target.

As soon as the basketball hits the left side of the basket, an electronic beep sounds. The 24-second offensive time that belonged to the Mavericks was over, and they didn't score!

"Terry's three-pointer missed, are the Mavericks going to swallow the defeat!?" Barkley clenched his fists and stood up, unable to sit comfortably in the commentary seat.

With 6 seconds left in the game, Brooks will immediately call a halt to the game after grabbing the rebound! When the time comes, the Mavericks will definitely use slashing tactics, so he will replace everyone who can make free throws! Everything is under control, and victory is within reach!

Perkins leaps high and prepares to pocket the rebound. But Heywood didn't give an inch, he and Perkins jumped almost at the same time, jumped to the same height, and their big hands touched the basketball at the same time.

However, the basketball was not caught by either of them, but by two strong men!

"The Thunder didn't have the first shot and didn't protect the rebound! Here's a chance for the Mavericks! Barkley slammed to his feet, time was running out!

The basketball flew towards the three-point line, and Sephorosa was already stuck with Terry, ready to take the basketball. As long as you catch this basketball that is pointed out, it is equivalent to grabbing the victory!

With his legs suffocating, the "Swiss Army Knife" jumps towards the basketball. But as soon as his body was halfway up, a black shadow suddenly rose out, separating him from the basketball!

"Also! He also actively grabbed the basketball that was pointed out before Seflorosa! After he landed, he went straight to the restricted area, and Durant and Perkins rushed to make up for it! ”

Durant and Perkins, two tall strong men, are like two mountains in front of them. Yiyang didn't even have time to look at the number of the timer on the rebound, he only knew that if he didn't make a shot, he would lose!

Jumping slightly, Yiyang couldn't even see the basket under the blocking of Durant and Perkins. He gently threw the ball out of the way, and then collided with Durant himself in the air. Physically exhausted, he lost his center of gravity and fell to the ground.

Yiyang, who was lying on the ground, saw the basketball go over Ibaka's fingertips, and after that, he couldn't see anything.

The huge electronic beep of "beep ~~~~~" resounded throughout the court, and the red light on the rebound also suddenly lit up.

Yiyang saw the Mavericks players celebrating, and he also saw the Thunder players celebrating. He saw Carlisle yelling at the referee, and he saw Brooks anxiously gesturing at the referee.

Did that goal go in? Yiyang didn't know. He was lying on the cold floor, with a halo of light in front of him.

Jason, I tried my best. I don't know if this gift can be successfully delivered to you......
