Chapter 178: Key Ball
Li Dong's shocking dunk is like a lingering haze, surrounding the hearts of the Clippers generals. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
No matter how fast Paul's serve is, there is no such speed as the change of people's momentum, and even Pierce has a shocked look on his face, and the strength of his little brother's ability is still beyond his expectations.
This back and forth reaction to the court, it has become a higher level of defensive enthusiasm of the Magic team, including Vucevic and others, as if a strong force has been re-injected into the heart and lungs, making a new source of strength emerge from their originally tired and exhausted bodies.
There was only one person, with an expressionless face, and there was not much change.
Paul looked at the young point guard's face in front of him in surprise, and he didn't understand why this guy looked like he was nobody. You know, his teammate just now has scored a goal that is enough to be selected as one of the top ten goals of the month.
Off the court, Skiers' brows furrowed deeply, from Payton's strong encounter with a bag and a missed shot to Li Dong's completion of the dunk, Payton's offensive choice made him very dissatisfied, and at this moment in the face of Paul's ball control, he did not show greater aggression, what was he thinking? These are the last two minutes!
Paul moved, dangled with his right hand and exchanged his left hand to break to the left.
The unpretentious movement is like his style of play, and at the same time, Pierce took advantage of Jordan Jr.'s off-ball cover to distance himself from Harris.
With a flick of his wrist, Paul opted for an early pass before Pierce could run out.
"Good shot!" Yang Jian blurted out praise, insiders look at the doorway, this pass seems simple, but from the perspective of the overall situation and concealment, it can be called the top in the NBA.
Anthony ran out and just happened to receive a pass from Paul.
Almost without thinking, Pierce rose to the ground, his shooting posture was elegant, and coupled with his height and long arms, it was difficult for ordinary people to form a block.
By the time Harris pounced, he had already made a move!
Hit or not?
The fans at the scene felt that their hearts were hanging, and all that was left in their eyes was the tumbling basketball, secretly praying silently to fall into the damn basket quickly.
"Oops!" As soon as Pierce made a move, he felt that it was not good, and the grasp of the strength did not seem to be so good.
Sure enough, the basketball landed after being raised, deviated from its original trajectory, and very unfortunately, smashed into the hoop and bounced.
The speed of this rebound was very fast, and the people who were crowded into a pile under the basket didn't have time to touch the basketball when they stretched out their hands, and the basketball was biased to the weak side of the left, where Li Dong happened to walk inside to grab the rebound.
"Hey, you're lucky!" Li Dong's eyes flashed, and he unceremoniously accepted the rebound.
As soon as he dribbled and wanted to launch a fast break, the old monster of the Clippers ran over and spread his arms to interfere with his dribble, causing him to dribble behind his back and exchange his right hand while reaching out to stop Paul.
After this obstacle, the Magic also lost the opportunity to break the fast-track place, and Paul let go of Li Dong and returned to his half-court position.
The clock entered the final 1 minute, and it was still a 95-95 tie at this time, and the Magic attacked the ball.
At this point, the game is already the most common fierce battle in the NBA, and the two hosts of the imperial court station are not too big to see the excitement, and they have speculated that maybe there will be overtime.
It was ten o'clock in the evening, and no player wanted to play overtime.
After Li Dong dribbled past half court, Skiles on the sidelines asked for a timeout, so the tense atmosphere on the scene was relaxed, and the enthusiastic cheerleading beauties began to twist their waists again.
"We've got to play with our success rate, Nicola and Lee, you two are our main attacking points, come on the pitch, cover each other off the ball on the right side and ......"
After explaining the tactics for a while, Skiles paused, hesitated for a moment, and said: "Elfried, wait a while for you to rest, Victor, you go to the game, use your speed to tear the Clippers' defense, you can't outrun that 31-year-old man, right?" ”
Peyton was eclipsed for a moment, speechless.
"No problem, don't worry, coach, I must use the fastest speed, how can Chris outrun me?"
"Good, good." Skiles patted Victor on the shoulder in satisfaction, and never looked at Payton again.
The eyes of everyone looking at Payton contain all kinds of emotions, including pity, doubt, ridicule, and pride, but this is the NBA, today's court star tomorrow.
Kick-off on the spot, Harris serves on the sideline in frontcourt.
Li Dong ran from the bottom line to the line, and after Vucevic's off-ball cover, he easily took Iguodala's serve, and then Iguodala, who finished serving, went straight to the court from the sidelines.
Oladipo really listened to Skiles's instructions and immediately began to run along the three-point line from the other sideline, and before Paul could understand why the Magic made a substitution at this critical moment, the kid ran away in a puff of smoke, so frightened that he quickly stepped away from his old legs to follow.
The quality of the cover was very good, Harris went inside empty, and Griffin had to let go of Frye and pounce on Harris instead.
At this moment, on the right side of the field, two people were formed in an instant for Paul to defend Frye Gaoladipo.
The vacancy appeared very clearly, Li Dong pushed on his chest, and the basketball passed to Fry, who grabbed the basketball, faced the opportunity to shoot in the vacant position, and got up to jump.
"Bell~" The crisp sound of hitting iron made Frye's face red, and he hurriedly rushed inside, hoping to grab a rebound to make up for it.
This time, Jordan Jr. killed all sides, squeezed away the crowd and grabbed the rebound with his long arms.
There are only 47.9 seconds left in the clock, 95 draws.
Paul, who was in possession of the ball, looked at Doug Rivers on the sidelines, Rivers hesitated, shook his head and signaled Paul to take control of the offense, and the Clippers only had one last timeout left, and if it was based on the current situation, there would be one more chance to attack.
Paul understood and gave the ball to Pierce after half-time.
Pierce leaned on a strong Harris with his back, and the two men had lost count of the number of times they had faced each other.
"You are really iron, you are also from the University of Kansas, and Lee is 10,000 times more accurate than you." Harris trash at Anthony, hoping to disturb him.
"It's better than you." Pierce did not show weakness and sneered at each other.
The two men faced each other for three seconds, and Pierce turned around and turned into a tentative step attack again.
On the imperial court station, Yang Jian began to give full play to his broadcasting expertise, and quickly explained this wave of Clippers' offense: "Pierce fell to the elbow area and faced Harris, all of them were pulled away, this is a duel between stars!" He started to dribble, changed hands with a beautiful crotch, chiseled two steps in, stepped back, and shot! ”
"Is there any?" Yang Yi also shouted excitedly.
"Lost it again~" A regretful tone came out of the mouths of the two hosts, and then immediately after, they began to pay attention to the situation on the next court, "I don't know who touched the bottom line of the rebounding ball!" ”
Yang Yi calmed down at this time and said with a smile: "Look at the replay, it should be a magic ball." ”
"I think so, the referee is going to watch the video replay." Yang Jian said with a smile.
In the TV camera, Li Dong and the others raised their heads and looked at the big screen in the center of the stadium, on which the replay just now was played, and the agent fee and Fry seemed to have touched the basketball at the same time. The referee put on headphones, seriously fast-forwarded and retired, and watched the replay over and over again.
It didn't take long for the three referees to discuss, and after a conclusion, the referee walked onto the court, and then pointed to the Clippers half-court, indicating that this was the Magic ball!
The scene immediately burst into boos.
In 32.4 seconds, Oladipo controlled the ball and advanced, and as soon as the half court passed, he stopped a step into the center circle, and then did not organize an attack, but from time to time he raised his head to look at the passing time and began to count the seconds to attack.
The boos, defenses, and cheers at the scene were intertwined, and Li Dong's heart was beating fast, as if he was about to pounce.
He simply fell in love with the feeling of walking on the edge of success and failure, like a struggle on the sidelines of life and death, suffocating tension and maddening excitement.
In 20 seconds, Li Dong took the lead and ran outside the three-point line to catch Oladipo's pass.
"You actually gave such an opportunity to your little brother to do it, are you still a star?" Paul's trash talk is not weak either, chattering in Oladipo's ear.
Oladipo didn't answer him, and suddenly turned around and ran to the outside of the three-point line.
Li Dong shook his crotch two times in a row, Bamot's palms were sweating nervously, and his legs trembled, but he was shaken by this simple crotch shaking.
"Oops!" His complexion changed, forgetting that he had committed five fouls on his back, and reached out directly.
And Li Dong took a lightning step, choosing to break through from the left side of Bamot, Bamot reached out, obviously to delay with a small movement, Li Dong couldn't tell if the referee would blow a foul at this time, a ruthless heart, a dull head, and he didn't care about it!
The arm hit Li Dong's body, and the pain stimulated Li Dong's nerve endings.
"Ahh He roared and took another step to send the ball away, his body following at the same time.
Bamot was taken aback, he didn't expect Li Dong to be so brave, he changed his palm to grasp, small actions became big moves, and blatantly grabbed the corner of Li Dong's jersey.
An irresistible force came from Li Dong's body, and Bamot stumbled, and was taken two steps forward by Li Dong.
At this time, the referee couldn't turn a blind eye even if he was super short-sighted, so he had to blow Bamot's blocking foul.
The fans at the scene didn't buy it even more, and the boos in the Pepsi Center shook the sky.
Li Dong was also surprised, he didn't expect to make a foul in the end, and Bamot walked off the field dejectedly, he had already committed six fouls.
The watch stopped, and Li Dong walked to the free throw line with 16.3 seconds left.
This season, Li Dong's serve shooting rate was as high as 100 percent, and then gradually declined, so far, there is also a nearly ninety percent shooting rate, is the best free throw shooter in the NBA.
He took the referee's first ball and gently flicked it out to the boos from the sky.
In this case, the free throw felt different, Li Dong felt as if the whole arena was vibrating, and the distance between the basket and himself became difficult to grasp.
The basketball spun across a parabola and passed through the net.
One Free Throw!
The boos stopped suddenly, Li Dong's face remained unchanged, but he breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, he was also under a lot of pressure for the free throw this time, but fortunately the penalty was in. So he took two steps forward and high-fived Frye and Vucevic who were standing one to the left and one behind him, then took two steps back, and without looking at anyone, he high-fived Oladipo and Harris who reached over.
In the second penalty, Li Dong was more comfortable, and after receiving the ball, he patted it twice and quickly dialed it out......
Hit both penalties!
