Chapter 201: The Last Madness

In this game, Li Cheng and his team once again staged a crazy march.

The 3-3 aggregate score made it clear to both teams that the winner would make it to the Eastern Conference Finals and take a step further on the road to the championship.

Even before that, the Pacers never thought they could win a championship, but now that they have fought to this point, how can they not have the slightest desire for a championship?

It's just one game away, and if you win, we'll advance, and even if your Big Three are strong, you've already been eliminated.

The Pacers were even more crazy today than in Game 1, and there was even an illusion to watch them play today.

It seems that every attack they make is as if it is the last attack of this game. The Pacers' resoluteness left the Greenshirts a little at a loss.

At the end of the first quarter, the Pacers led the Celtics by two points at 28-26.

A two-point lead wasn't much, but it was the result of a 12-minute battle by the Pacers.

In the second quarter, the Pacers still insisted on the same rhythm as the first quarter.

If you take a step back, you will die, and you might as well fight for it.

At the end of the first half, the Pacers miraculously led the Celtics by five points at the North Shore Garden Arena.

"In this game, the Pacers don't play basketball at all, it's more like fighting with people!" The narrator also had to sigh.

"Willing to dare to pull the emperor off the horse, the walker seems to think like this now!"

"The Pacers started the season with a goal of making the playoffs, and now they've made it to the second round of the playoffs. The Pacers have earned it this season anyway, and every game they win next is earned. Anyway, they have nothing, no scruples, what can't they fight? ”

"However, if this continues, it will be difficult for the Pacers to walk away with a win at the North Shore Garden Arena."

"Yes! There are still two quarters to go, and the fitness of the Pacers players may not last long! ”

In fact. It's not like the Pacers players can't hold up for long, and they're now feeling like they're being drained.

Even the Pacers' most physical fit, Granger, is half-lying in a chair in the locker room, gasping for air.

It's been three minutes since they've been back in the locker room, but the sweat on them is still pouring down.

"This half of the game, the ...... Tired! Li Cheng's breathing has not calmed down yet.

If the Pacers' physical fitness can be restored to the state they were in at the start of the game, O'Brien would dare to say that he would win this game and eliminate the Celtics. But look at the current state of the team. O'Brien didn't have a bottom in his heart at all.

The Pacers played the entire first half of the game, trading physical strength for the score. But they've basically run out of energy now, so what else do they have in the second half?

What did the Pacers rely on in the second half? Li Cheng told everyone with practical actions, and in the second half, the Pacers relied on the little body they recovered at halftime, plus the indomitable momentum, to fight!

In the second half of the game, Li Cheng and Granger became the biggest shining points on the field.

Everyone knows that the Pacers have overdrawn themselves in the first half, and they may return to their normal style of play in the second half. However, the walkers did not.

At halftime. In the locker room, O'Brien was going to return to his normal style of play in the second half. But Li Cheng and Granger rejected it in unison.

"We don't have any advantage in front of the Bostonians. The only thing we can rely on is youth, and we are crazier. So. In the second half we had to keep playing like that. ”

"However, your physical strength can no longer support it, and even if you fight like this again, you can't be fast if you want to."

"The two of us. It will bring up the speed of the team. Li Cheng and Granger said firmly. In fact, when they said this, they still had a sentence in their hearts, "If we don't run to the last moment of the race." Then we won't have any chances in this game. ”

The cooperation between Li Cheng and Granger once suppressed the Celtics.

Rondo's immaturity was exposed in this one, and he was unknowingly infected by the madness of Granger and Li Cheng. He was playing faster and faster with the Celtics, and even if Pierce wanted to bring him back like he did in the first quarter, he couldn't do it.

With 7:24 left in the third quarter, the Pacers extended their lead to 11 points. And in these 7 minutes and 24 seconds, all the Pacers' scores came from Li Cheng and Granger. The two of them scored a frantic 27 points in the space of 7 minutes.

The boos at the North Shore Garden Arena were shocking, and they would never allow their enemies to be so arrogant here. And behind the crazy boos of these fans, there is also a little bit of weakness. They are afraid that their team will lose the game, and they are afraid that the Big Three will go home without winning the championship.

Rivers wasn't too worried on the sidelines, as it was clear that this was the Pacers' last madness. The rest of them are gone, only Li Cheng and Granger are still fighting.

And then, Granger didn't do it either, he was knocked down by Pierce in the next defense, and then he tried to get up on his own, but he didn't.

Next, the only one who can continue to go crazy may be Li Cheng!

Li Cheng has actually been unable to do it a long time ago, but with his willpower, he has stubbornly stood up to the present.

At this time, all the Pacers players on the court have rested, but Li Cheng has not rested for a minute.

Wiping a handful of sweat with the collar of his jersey, Li Cheng stuck the position on the left side of the free throw line, and then reached out for the ball.

Li Cheng knew that his physical strength was running out, and he could only choose the most economical way to score now.

After receiving the ball, Li Cheng simply made a false movement and immediately turned around to shoot.

He didn't feint, but his shots were still a very threatening weapon for opponents. No one dared to put his shot, and the Celtics, as always, came up to the pack.

However, neither James Posey nor Ray Allen's blocks touched the basketball.

Li Cheng's shooting is still beautiful, but in this beauty, there is still a hint of determination and madness.

Not covering this goal, even Ray Allen was surprised. But in fact, the basketball is slowly flying towards the basket. Perhaps, the power of belief affected Li Cheng's shooting?

"Huh!" Lee's shot hit again, and the Pacers extended the gap to 13 points.

But the man who threw the ball didn't see his own goal. After leaning back at a super angle, he couldn't stand, but this time Li Cheng didn't get up after he fell to the ground.

After Li Cheng reached the end, his body drew some distance due to inertia. Feeling the cold floor, and the comfort of his spine coming into contact with the floor, he really didn't want to get up.

Even Daniels, who came to pull him, used two forces to pull him up.

"That goal just went in!" Li Cheng asked with difficulty as he ran back.

"Entered!" Daniels nodded, and a strong sense of respect suddenly appeared in his heart.

Li Cheng's diligence, paranoia, and talent are all seen by everyone. At this moment, seeing that Li had become a victory, he was so desperate. Daniels shook his head with a wry smile, he had also been jealous of Li Cheng before, but after seeing the fate of little Dunleavy, he hid this jealousy deep in his heart. At this time, the jealousy in his heart had all turned into admiration.

If such a player can't succeed, then God is really blind!

However, the Pacers' lead ended there. Granger had already rested, and Li Cheng could no longer regain his previous bravery, despite his persistence.

O'Brien forcibly replaced Li Cheng in the 8th minute. After that, the Celtic triumvirate swept in and quickly launched a wave of counterattacks.

At the end of the third quarter, the Pacers led the Celtics by six points, 78-72.

Looking at the score on the scoreboard, Li Cheng had a feeling of helplessness. He's really done his best, maybe when he recovers some physical strength, he can go up and fight again!

In the final quarter of the game, the Celtics didn't seem to be in a hurry. They slowly cannibalized the Pacers' lead, and the Pacers, after slowly wearing down that crazy momentum, no longer have the strength to fight the mighty Celtics.

In the fourth minute of the final quarter, Ray Allen scored a game-winning goal for the Celtics.

"Coach, let me go up!" Li Cheng stood up directly and pulled off the training pants that were on the outside. O'Brien had a black line on his face, "You've done this, can I still not let you go?" ”

Li Cheng and Granger were replaced together, but when they were replaced again, they could no longer find the madness they had before.

The cooperation between Li Cheng and Granger is still tacit, but there is a lack of madness, and there is not much body, and the two of them really feel a little powerless in front of the powerful Celtics.

They couldn't stop the Celtics from slowly expanding the score, but Li Cheng still tirelessly threw the basketball from his hands.

In the end, even the fans at the scene couldn't send boos to Li Cheng and Granger, the two opponents who had been fighting them for seven games.

Both of them are no longer stable, but the two of them are still holding on to the last bit of hope for the team.

The score was slowly pulled apart, and every shot by Li Cheng and Granger carried a kind of desperation. The difference gradually went to 10 points, but until this point, Li Cheng and Granger still refused to be substituted.

With three minutes to go, the Pacers trailed by 11 points. But Li Cheng is still insisting, and those fans who care about Li Cheng are already a little unbearable. And at this time, they, like the stars they support, are expecting a miracle to happen. (To be continued......)
