Chapter Seventy-Six: The suspense is renewed
The third quarter of the game ended like this, when the third quarter of the game ended, the East had a 13-point lead, although the point difference is not too big, the hope of chasing nothing is still very big, but at least the East has a very big chance of winning this game, after all, it has a 13-point lead.
The advantage of thirteen points is not large, but the west can no longer withstand the wave, while the east has passed, so in comparison, anyone with a discerning eye knows that the victory in the east is the greatest.
In the third quarter, Huang Jun performed the best in the east, and he scored ten points plus five assists in a single quarter for the east, and so far in the game, Huang Jun has scored 16 points and eight assists.
And James has so far got 20 points, seven rebounds and three assists, is the current scoring champion in the East, if the East wins this game, then the MVP will be produced between James and Huang Jun, both of them are very good, there is no way to tell who is better, so the final quarter of the game will be very important.
But I don't know if the two have a chance to play in the fourth quarter, both of them played the whole quarter in the first quarter, and neither of them had a chance to play in the entire second quarter, and now the two of them played the whole quarter of the game in the third quarter, whether they will play in the fourth quarter has become the suspense now, I don't know if the two of them will play, and whether they will play The decision is nothing more than the performance of the players, if the performance is not excellent, the score is chased into something, then the chances of Huang Jun and James playing have greatly increased, Otherwise, they don't have a chance to play.
In the fourth quarter, the players on the Eastern side were not four Celtics players, only three, and Garnett, who was the starter, did not appear on this list, and at this time Brown also replaced some stars who didn't play much, and they were finally selected as All-Stars, don't you let people play, do you want people to sit on the bench all the time? It's going to cause dissatisfaction, so everybody will have a little bit of playing time, their own time.
This will be the lineup that will play in the East: Rondo, Wade, Ray Allen, Pierce and Bosh. This lineup can be said to be a small one, it is not easy, there is no inside lineup, so the inside line is easy to be blown up by the west, the west is too strong, even Stoudemire's excellent inside line is lost in the competition, you can imagine how fierce the competition in the west is.
The lineup that played on this side of the West: Paul, Roy, Nowitzki, Duncan and O'Neal. Paul was replaced early and calmed down early, and the meaning of this will be replaced on the court is very clear, that is, I hope Paul can lead the lineup on the court to chase the score back, and this is also the meaning of sending Duncan.
The interior line in the West is very strong, O'Neal and Duncan, these are Hall of Fame level players, top interior lines, if it weren't for the fact that both of them are old, these two alone can defeat the entire team in the East, but Duncan's performance is still so good, and O'Neal is enough to deal with an interior lineup like the East.
In the next game, Paul found his form, which will undoubtedly be very timely, if he hasn't found his form, then he doesn't need to find his form, because when he finds his form, the game is almost over, what's the use of his form?
And in the next game, the west played very well under the leadership of Paul, and the organization of Rondo on the eastern side also allowed the east to withstand the counterattack of the west, although the west recovered a little bit of the score, but the difference was still between ten points, which was not a big deal for the east, and now both sides are comparing whose efficiency is more efficient.
Although there is no strong inside line in the east, they are all small men or something, but the speed of the east is far better than that of the west, and the speed of the west is definitely far less than that of the east under the influence of O'Neill and Duncan, so the west is mainly the inside line of the east, and the east is the main fast attack, a bit like running and bombing, but is there a running bomb, it is an alternative tactic.
But although it's not a run or something, but the offense in the east during this time still looks very pleasing to the eye, everyone likes to watch such a game, although the efficiency is not as high as the opponent's attack on the inside, but it can withstand it, occasionally Ray Allen has a three-pointer, and he can have one more three-point than the opponent. I really can't do anything about the inside line, so I cut the shark.
But after all, it's just an all-star game, a performance-based game, how can you cut sharks? So the game has been coming to a halt, what else are the spectators watching?
With only three minutes left in the fourth quarter, the East led the West by six points by 135 to 129, the difference was not so big, but the time was decreasing a little. At this time, in order to ensure the victory of the game, the East called a timeout, and after the pause came back, all the starters were directly replaced on the court to prepare for the final showdown.
The West is no exception, Paul's state in this quarter is very good, he found that superstar-level state, and in nine minutes he got ten points plus four assists for the team.
"How do I feel that the current situation has been planned a long time ago?" Barkley said with a frown as he looked at the score.
Asked like this, Smith smiled and said, "How can it be well designed, and who will design a good game, you and I have both experienced this kind of thing, the game is ever-changing, you never know what will happen in the next second, so it is difficult to design this kind of thing, unless it is match-fixing, this is an exception." This was clearly a dismissive of what Barkley had said.
"If it's not designed well, why don't you change to the starter when you're leading by 13 points to continue to open the score, and then get the win in one go? And now? With a thirteen-point advantage, it has only become six points so far, so that the West has a chance to reverse, and the suspense of the game is out again. Barkley added: "I think they designed it a long time ago, for the suspense of the game, to make the game more exciting, and not to fall into garbage time early." ”
"There is some truth in what Barkley said, and he sees the situation so thoroughly." Smith thought to himself, and then said, "If that's the case, that's good news, it's not match-fixing, you know, this game is performance-oriented, I hope you don't forget that." Creating suspense to make fans watch more exciting, which is also a good thing for fans, is the kind of dream. ”
Then Barkley didn't say anything more, how could he not understand what Smith was saying?
Huang Jun held the ball, faced Paul's defense, and threw the ball high, not looking at Paul at the moment of running, as if it was not a person in front of him. Paul didn't have any dissatisfaction on his face, but turned to look at the target of the ball, which he wanted to intercept, but the ball was too high to be intercepted.
I saw a figure on the inside line jumping up directly when the ball was about to reach the end, catching the ball with one hand, this person was none other than James, who had just come on the court, with the help of running, successfully received the ball that was too high in Paul's eyes. James, who received the ball with one hand, slammed it directly into the basket, and the moaning sound came out instantly.
Then there were cheers from the scene, they didn't expect this game to come here, and there was such a strong air relay, which undoubtedly made them come happily and leave happily.
With the goal hit, the gap in the score has also been pulled to eight points, these eight points are undoubtedly a guarantee of victory, if the west wants to reverse the game, it will be very difficult, far greater than six points, six points can be tied with two attacks, but eight points are different, at least three chances. And among these three opportunities, as long as the east completes one, it will be difficult for the west to reverse the game, because there is not much time left for them.
Paul held the ball, continued to reverse the ball, and finally the ball was passed to his hand, this attack is very important, this everyone knows, if it doesn't work, then the situation in the west is even more optimistic, it can be said that if you want to win the game, the hope is slim, so this goal must be scored.
Paul broke through the ball and passed the ball directly to Kobe's hands, the latter's offensive ability at the critical moment was very good, Kobe Bryant, who received the ball, did not have any change in his face, his expression was unusually indifferent, directly outside the three-point line, he threw the basketball in his hand, and shot quite decisively and resolutely, even if there are many stars in this team, he has nothing unnatural, everything seems to be taken for granted.
This is what sets Kobe Bryant apart from many players, and it's also a place that coaches like very much.
Brush, three-point hit, this ball can be regarded as a continuation of the team's life, did not give the opponent a chance to continue to expand the advantage of the score, so as to end the game early, such a ball only Kobe Bryant dared to shoot and can hit.
Iverson looked at the figure in front of him helplessly, now the difference between the two is too big, the other party is still in the scenery, and he has begun to go downhill, he has a dedication to victory, but now there is not much chance that the team will hand over the last key shot to him, and Kobe Bryant still has such a chance.
From the helpless eyes, to the eyes that turned into envy in the end, I really envy this Kobe Bryant, who entered the NBA in the same year as me and is also a superstar, I am really envious.
