Chapter 172: Hold on for a minute

After López said this, he also showed his biceps, Li Ming smiled speechlessly, this living treasure。。。。。。 However, he really helped a lot, and his block made up for Li Ming's defensive mistakes.

"In the last minute, we'll hold on! Hurry up and regain your strength! The Hornets re-served and Holiday took advantage of the gap to say a quick word behind him.

Li Ming turned his head to look at Holiday , but the latter had already gone to defend Walker. His eyes were complicated, he really didn't expect Holiday to say such a thing at such a time, you know, they had a gap before!

But now, when he needed support the most, he stood behind him without hesitation, wanting to shelter him from the wind and rain.

Probably..... This is the romance of men!

"Whew! It seems that I am not alone in the fight! Li Ming let out a sigh, he decided to trust these comrades, don't care about anything at the last minute, and recover his strength as soon as possible.

Hojberg looked at the other players on the field who suddenly became alive, and had the intention to replace Li Ming so that he could have a good rest at the last minute.

But I was afraid that without Li Ming's presence, this group of guys would be messed up, so I didn't dare to ask for a replacement.

The Hornets served, and Walker, who got the ball, gave the ball to Batum again, this time the opponent was much more confident in Li Ming, and he thought about it, knowing that the other party was a papier-mâché tiger, what else was there to be afraid of?

Li Ming was also unprepared, and symbolically stretched out his hand when Batum broke through, and let the latter go.

Batum, who broke through Li Ming, thought that there would be a flat horse in front of him, but Holiday stuck to him at this time, forcing him to transfer the ball to the rest of the Hornets.

Walker got the ball and went inside, because Holiday went to defend Batum and came back a little too late, Lopes immediately saved.

When he went out, he did delay Walker, but the inside line was empty, and Walker hoisted directly to Howard, who took the ball, and Mirotic could only quickly foul.

He only committed two fouls, which was already the end of the third quarter, and a foul against Howard would be a good idea, at least the latter couldn't score easily.

Howard made one of two free throws, and the foul became valuable for Mirotic, as he turned the original two points into one.

The Bulls attacked, the ball did not pass through Li Ming's hands, and there was a resistance when it was passed, not to mention running out of the empty space to shoot, and finally twenty-four seconds were coming, and Lopez could only force his shot.

If you don't hit, hurry back to defense.

However, Batum and Gilchrist were faster than them, and after two back-and-forth balls, they were already one step ahead of the Bulls to the restricted area, scoring on an empty layup, and completing a beautiful offensive and defensive transition.

It was the Bulls' possession again, and this time the reluctant attacker was replaced by Holiday and stumbled into the Hornets' interior to finally make a foul.

gasped for breath and walked to the free throw line, eventually hitting one of two free throws.

It can be seen that their physical strength is very reluctant, but it is better than Li Ming, after all, they almost didn't play much in the third quarter, and they all watched Li Ming attack.

But in just one minute, he was put into both offensive and defensive ends, and his physical strength was quickly lost again!

It's so hard!

In the last twenty-eight seconds, Hornets Walker grabbed a three-pointer, missed, Mirotic protected the rebound, and threw the ball out weakly, Holliday took the ball again, glanced at the time, and felt a sense of relief in his heart.

After a little more delay, this third quarter can be considered the end. The promise to buy Li Ming time can be regarded as fulfilled.

Slowly dribbling the ball to the frontcourt, he wanted to delay time, and then play the last attack, but the Hornets knew that you had a problem with your physical strength, how could they let you get your wish, and posted it without saying a word, not afraid of Holliday's breakthrough at all, or rather, they just forced Holliday to break through.

Reluctantly dribbled the ball twice, Holliday suddenly found that Batum had also wrapped it up at this time, obviously to wrap it! At present, his physical strength is trapped, and he is afraid that it will be difficult to pass the ball out.

Helpless, he could only break through.

Because Walker's defense was very tight, it was easy for Holliday to break through, but Gilchrist, who came in time to make up for it, made his heart nervous again when he was about to relax!

He must not have been able to break through Gilchrist's defense, passing... He didn't see anyone in his field of vision who could pass the ball。。。。。

"Cast!"

Just when he was in a dilemma and undecided, Gilchrist got closer and closer, and suddenly a low shout reached his ears, and he didn't know who said it, but his hand subconsciously raised and threw the ball in his hand before Gilchrist further compressed his shooting space.

However, this ball was thrown in a hurry, and it was not the usual rhythm of shooting, so as soon as I shot, looking at the arc of the ball, I knew that it must be off!

Mirotic and Lopez rushed to grab the offensive rebound.

Although Marvin Williams is not the style of playing inside, he has also played the game for so many years, and he still has experience in the inside position, and it is not a problem to resist the two thighs of the weak inside line.

Being stuck in the back isn't the worst case for the Bulls' interior line, and what's worse is that Howard is still in front of them.

If the latter grabs a defensive rebound, it will be another fast break, because no one on the Bulls can keep up with the speed of Batum and Gilchrist.

"Damn!" God knows how much they want to grab this offensive rebound!

"Phew!" The ball hit the rebound and bounced high, Howard was optimistic about the speed of the ball's slide and jumped easily, Marvin stuck those two guys so well that no one could grab the rebound from him, and he didn't bother to use much effort.

"Whew~"

The ball fell straight into his hand, but he heard a slight wind in his ears, which seemed to 。。。。。 It's windy~

In addition to the sound of the wind, he also caught a glimpse of a figure out of the corner of his eye, and at the same time, there was a low cry of surprise from the audience!

Something surprising to them happened!

"Huh?!" Vigilant, Howard's hand stretched out even straighter, he was already jumping, not knowing what was happening behind him, but the faint uneasiness made him want to take the board off quickly.

A difference of a few centimeters...

Just as Howard was within reach of the ball, an unsettling anomaly appeared, a faster hand hooked the ball in advance, and smashed it directly in the direction of the basket.

"Phew!"

A loud bang exploded in Howard's ears, and he looked up at the person who was flying higher than him, it was Li Ming。。。。。。
