Chapter Thirty-Nine: Three Pairs + Lore! Still waiting!
The Hornets have five people on the court, except for Chandler's weak offensive ability, the other four have good offensive ability, and even Tyson Chandler will be empty, as long as there is a slight win, all the efforts of the Clippers will be wasted.
Mike Dunleavy replaced Cassel with Livingston again, trying to use his height advantage to control Chris Paul's shots, and resolutely defended in the limited time.
David West was on the halfway line ready to serve, Paul was in front of the center circle, Pejastojakovic was a full two metres away from the three-point line, Chandler was one step away from the three-second zone, and Pearson was running around.
"Ten seconds to go! On the other side, the Oakland Center is now two minutes away from full-time, and the Golden State Warriors, who are currently playing at home, are only one point ahead of the Seattle SuperSonics, and if the SuperSonics can turn the tables around, then the Clippers will have to beat the Hornets to get the last playoff spot......" Van Gundy said as he looked at the technical statistics on the computer.
Lin Fei was a little far away from Peja, and Pearson, who was constantly running, kept pulling the Clippers' defense.
The referee blew the whistle in his mouth, and the Hornets players were like chickens running around, and David West stood on tiptoe to observe his teammates' movements, and his eyes suddenly lit up.
"Hell!" Lin Fei scolded in a low voice, Pearson blocked his direction, and under Pearson's cover and Paul pulled the Clippers' defensive strength, Pejastojakovic pulled to 90 degrees, and he was still two meters away from the three-point line. The players who made up the defense did not raise their vigilance, and it was at this time that David West threw the basketball in his hand directly at Peja.
"Is this going to be given to Stojakovic? It is only reasonable that the unreasonable choice should be left to Paul! Zhang Li once again couldn't help but publish his famous theory of reason, and it is clear that everyone is on the opposite side of Zhang Li today.
Peja received the ball and looked at the basket, there was no defender around him, as one of the signature players of the 96 Golden Generation, he is no longer a super shooter in Sacramento, but he still has an indelible shooter heart.
Looking at the Nets gently shaking in Staples, his eyes were full of his Sacramento shadow, Stojakovic jumped up lightly, still the signature Peja three-point gesture, a short period of time, looking at the basket in the distance, did not feel that he was at a super long distance at the moment, his wrist exerted his fingers to pluck the ball, the basketball left his fingers, and flew into the air in the direction of the hand.
"Peja made a shot, and it's a super long-range three!" Van Gundy exclaimed, Peja's perfect hand made everyone believe that the goal would go in.
Clippers fans are unwilling to stop the basketball from flying, a perfect Peste arc, the basketball is getting closer and closer to the basket, coming to the front of the basket and diving into the net.
Swish!
The drifting Nets silenced the Staples Center in a fatal three-pointer.
The timer was eight seconds to sting the Clippers' eyes, and their elaborate defensive tactics only cost the opponent two seconds, and Mike Dunleavy shook his head helplessly, and there was nothing he could do in the face of such a goal.
"Pejastojakovic with a big heart, he saved New Orleans, the Lakers lost at home to the San Antonio Spurs, who are third in the West, and as long as the Hornets win, they will be the first in the West!" Yu Jia couldn't help but cheer for Peja's shot.
Eight seconds, eight seconds, still two points behind, all Clippers fans have their eyes on Lin Fei, and all the players of the Hornets have also set their eyes on Lin Fei, although this season is Lin Fei's debut season, but Lin Fei has staged five last-minute fatal blows, there is a statistic that Lin Fei's shooting rate in the last 30 seconds is as high as an outrageous 70 percent, and the second place is Carmelo Anthony's 48 percent, the gap is immediately judged.
So at this time, everyone turned their eyes to Lin Fei, and Paul and his teammates looked at each other and nodded.
The referee's whistle blew to urge the Clippers to make a final attack, and Lin Fei was stunned to find that there were two people around him, and because the Clippers had used up the last timeout, they lost the opportunity to serve in the front court and could only start serving from the backcourt.
It takes at least four seconds to shoot from the backcourt to the frontcourt, and if there is a mark, this time is far more than that, and it is likely to lose the offensive opportunity directly under the Hornets' defense.
"Eight seconds is undoubtedly a difficult moment for the Clippers who used up the timeout, and serving in the backcourt is not a strong news for the Clippers! Lin has been pestered to the death, see how the Clippers cope. Van Gundy said as he looked at the court.
"You're doomed!" Chris Paul's voice drilled into Lin Fei's ears.
Lin Fei turned his head sideways, and what caught his eye was Paul's somewhat childish cheeks, and he was smiling faintly at the moment.
"Eight seconds, isn't there?" The corners of his mouth went up, and as soon as the words fell, Lin Fei's elbow secretly struck, and the whole person accelerated violently, and Pearson, who was in pain, lost the opportunity to chase and defend, leaving only one Paul to follow Lin Fei.
Accelerating and accelerating, Powell saw Lin Fei running on, and passed the basketball in his hand without hesitation, because behind him was Chris Paul, Lin Fei didn't dare to be careless at all, and once again accelerated and caught the ball steadily, time did not allow him to have any stagnation, and slapped the whole person with a heavy hand and immediately turned around, successfully bypassing Paul, who was completely accelerated to chase the defense.
"Lin, got the ball! This is an opportunity! Great opportunity! Barkley slammed the commentary booth and scared Jeff Van Gundy out of a few hairs again.
"Lin Fei, he received the ball, he is moving forward at high speed! High speed! Yu Jia roared hoarsely at this moment, making the fans on the other side of the ocean feel the adrenal glands soaring.
Three-point lore?
They have already sat down and waited for the high tide to come.
Lin Fei's Pearson, who was wrapped up at the beginning, had already eased up at this moment, and he appeared on Lin Fei's forward line, his outstretched arms like a big net trying to completely cover Lin Fei.
Lin Fei's afterglow saw Cassell at the 45-degree three-point line on the right side when Pearson blocked it, which was Mike Dunleavy in order to ensure the last offense and replaced Livingston with Cassell again, after all, Livingston has no shooting ability, and Cassel has already proven that he is a big heart.
"Sam!" Lin Fei yelled, jumped up directly, and threw the basketball over.
"This is Sam's empty seat!" Van Gundy screamed and was rigid as a manager.
"How to defend! A bunch of idiots! Byron Scott couldn't help but scold.
Cassell didn't hesitate to look at the basket and shoot straight to the basket, he had made many last shots, and although he couldn't guarantee a shooting percentage, he was never afraid to take responsibility for the last shot.
"Rebound!" As soon as the basketball left his hand, Cassel screamed, he could clearly feel that the ball was a little off, and Lin Fei, as a shooter, also felt it, and the person who had just landed suddenly accelerated and rushed directly from Pearson's side to the inside.
The time on the timer has entered three seconds, and Tyson Chandler on the inside line looked at the trajectory of the basketball, a move, and a foot insertion directly stuck Paul Davis behind him to completely occupy a favorable position, and the same was true of David West on the other side, Powell looked at the trajectory of the basketball with some anxiety.
Bang!
The sound of hitting iron spread through the loudspeaker throughout the Staples Center, the basketball bounced out heavily, and everyone under the basket was ready to scramble for rebounds with different expressions, Tyson Chandler and David West were excited, according to their judgment, the ball was destined to fly out of bounds, the victory was theirs, and the first place in the West was also theirs!
"The tide is over!" Zhang Li sighed.
"Lin, still haven't given up!" Barkley jumped again.
Watching the basketball bounce to the bottom left corner, and there was no one in that area, the basketball seemed destined to fly off the sideline.
"I can't give up! No! ”
This is the deepest cry in Lin Fei's heart, looking at the direction of the basketball popping up, Lin Fei accelerated, the exhaustion of his body seemed to disappear at this moment, his left foot kicked the ground heavily, and the whole person rose directly from the ground, and grabbed the basketball falling in the air with both hands as much as possible.
Take hope in your own hands!
"Caught!" Lin Fei didn't have time to rejoice, at this moment he had reached the bottom corner of the left side, forced to land, almost stepped on the sideline, at this moment the time had entered a second, Lin Fei did not have any preparation, directly looked at the basket and threw it over.
At this moment, a cold voice appeared in his mind, "The host opens the seventh-level one-sword to the west, and opens the second-level fatal blow!" ”
For the first time, it was not triggered by Lin Fei himself, but it was automatically generated, and Lin Fei himself didn't even realize the familiar and cold voice in his head.
Staples seemed to be in a vacuum at this moment, and all eyes were on the rising basketball in the sky.
At this time, the rebound was already on the red light.
Whether to score or not to score determines the ultimate fate of the Clippers this season!
Basketball has been flying in the air for thousands of years, and it attracts everyone's attention in the air.
Paul slowly closed his eyes, and his ears dug into the piercing sound.
Coax!
Staples was like a volcanic eruption at this moment, cheering with the goal.
"Lin has made history, triple-doubles, whistle kills, what else can stop him? The sky is the limit for him! Barkley's uncharacteristically calmed down, which made Van Gundy a little uncomfortable.
When Staples's cheers suddenly subsided, Lin Fei, who was caught in the middle by his teammates, felt something.
At the Golden State Oakland Center, Baron Davis hit a three-pointer that he shot just 20 percent from three-point range in his career, but he hit a lethal three-pointer when the team was one point behind.
Staples's cheers completely disappeared, and a wry smile flashed across Lin Fei's face.
"We've tried, haven't we? Cheer up and come back next year! Lin Fei clapped his palms in an attempt to cheer up his teammates.
"Coach, trust me! I want three points! Durant looked at the coach with a resolute gaze.
"Kevin?"
"Coach, I'm not going to give up trying because he's going to make the playoffs because of my possible goals! I want to vote! The tone was resolute again, watching the big screen Durant tug into his fist.
There were three seconds left before the end of the game between the Warriors and the HySonics.
Just three seconds!
