Chapter 3 Victory is Hopeful

As the basketball slumped into the hoop, there was a brief silence in the Conseth Arena.

"The ball went in? The Chinese, who came back on the court, hit a shot with a step-back jumper. Mark Boyle was the first to react, and he said flatly. In fact, he absolutely did not believe that this Chinese scored this goal by strength, but as a commentator, he was not easy to say.

"Shit! The goal was scored? ”

"You still don't allow that little white face to have a bit of luck?"

"I bet he got the ball in."

The fans weren't buying Lee's goal, but at least they didn't boo.

Li Cheng was expressionless behind the goal, and turned back to defense. Although there was no change in his expression, his heart was like a spring breeze. The "Top of the Basketball System" has really made a difference to him, and his strength has indeed increased a lot.

Regarding the slightly cold expression of the fans at the scene, Li Cheng also didn't care at all. "When I prove myself with one score after another, they naturally give me the loudest cheers."

Granger ran from behind Li Cheng, patted his hand, and said, "Man, good job, keep it up." ”

Li Cheng's goal helped the Pacers narrow the gap to single digits again, and O'Brien's face finally softened. He was standing on the sidelines of the goal just now, and he saw it clearly. He always felt that Li Cheng's goal was not blindfolded, and he noticed Li Cheng's gaze when he shot, and the confidence revealed in that gaze was the most real.

The big screen at the scene was still replaying Li Cheng's goal just now, O'Brien kept staring at the screen, and he kept paying attention to Li Cheng's eyes.

"Very confident eyes, and very decisive shots, could it be that the blows again and again finally made this kid wake up?" O'Brien muttered to himself.

When O'Brien came to his senses, O'Tlaw had already made a move in front of Li Cheng.

Outlaw's shot was denied, and Jeff Foster grabbed the rebound.

When Jeff Foster won the rebound, Li Cheng was already running to the Trail Blazers' basket at full speed.

Roy was behind Li Cheng, but he had already surpassed Li Cheng. In terms of absolute speed, Li Cheng is not as good as Roy, especially the healthy Roy.

Granger fell behind Li Cheng, and it was a chance to break fast.

Jeff Foster threw the ball to Granger, who could feel the pressure behind him, and he couldn't match Li Cheng with a 2-on-1 combination. He looked up and observed the positions of Li Cheng and Roy, Roy had already stood in position, and Li Cheng's chances were already very slim. But looking at James Jones, who had already been posted, Granger realized that he had to pass the ball, or he would have to fall into position.

"The Pacers had a fast-break opportunity, and Granger received the ball. Roy has already returned to the defense, and it looks like he is going to fall into battle. Mark Boyce directly ignored Li Cheng's deposit, and in his heart he didn't think that Li Cheng would have a chance to fight Roy one-on-one.

However, Granger shouted and passed the ball out.

"Oh my God, Granger actually passed the ball to the Chinese. It seems that the Chinese want to choose to single Roy, this is your mother is shit shit. Mark Beuys exclaimed.

After Li Cheng received the ball, he made a feint to break through, and Roy opened his hands and opened up to defend.

Li Cheng did not choose to continue to break through, he knew his level, and it was impossible to eat Roy one-on-one. Yes, he stepped out with his left foot and slammed his body, his body braked suddenly, his right foot was retracted, and his upper half leaned back, a standard "Golden Rooster Independence" style shot.

"Damn Chinese, is he afraid that his movements are not difficult enough?"

"He thought he was going to be able to challenge himself with a step-back jumper?"

"Is he doing acrobatics or is he playing ball?"

There were some sparse boos at the scene again.

O'Brien hugged his hands with a stern expression, but he had some confidence in Li Cheng's shot for no reason.

Roy didn't expect Li Cheng to make such a choice, but he still pounced on Li Cheng the moment he made a move.

At this moment, Li Cheng only has basketball in his eyes. He knew very well that at this time, Roy could not interfere with his shooting, at most interfere with his vision.

Li Cheng's heart was as calm as water, and the perfect linkage of arms, wrists, and fingers slowly pulled out the ball. Roy's hand covered Li Cheng's face, but it didn't affect the latter's shooting at all.

The sound of the basketball crashing into the net was so crisp that the boos of the fans in the stadium were interrupted instantly. Only the shouts of the live DJ - "Ball in, ball in...... We scored four points in a row, we were close to the difference, and we still had a chance. ”

Mark Boyce's voice also raised a bit, "The Chinese scored two goals in a row, and he is finally worthy of his contract." ”

"Huh? The ball went in? It's amazing! Someone said in a teasing tone.

"Basketball sometimes requires a bit of luck." Someone said in the affirmative.

"Actually...... That Chinese's shooting posture is very handsome! There are also female fans who are nymphomaniacs.

Granger rushed to Li Cheng's side and hugged him, "I knew you could do it, just fight like this, continue, continue!" ”

Li Cheng smiled, took Granger's hand, and nodded firmly.

was chased by the Pacers by 4 points in a row, and the difference was suddenly narrowed to 7 points, and the Trail Blazers had to call a timeout.

When replacing Li Cheng, O'Brien never thought that this Chinese could call a timeout for the pioneers. He took the tactics board and began to lay out the tactics, and he said with a lot of words, and his hands did not stagnate. Everyone listened carefully, after all, no one wanted to let their losing streak go up to a double.

After the timeout, the Trail Blazers stepped up their defense against Li Cheng. Outlaw couldn't take any more recklessness to contain Granger, and the pressure on Granger was reduced and he showed his edge again.

Li Cheng didn't get any more chances, but the Pacers pressed the score closer step by step. However, during this period of time, Li Cheng also completed his tactical containment very well. He kept running and pulling, and he didn't shoot again, mostly because he didn't have a particularly good chance. His movement helped Granger and Tinsley open up space for offense, and the Pacers' playmaking on the offensive end became fluid.

Murphy receives a pass from Tinsley and dunks inside; Granger scored again on a mid-range shot; Li Cheng faked a real pass to assist Jeff Foster to score a hook shot. The fluid offense gave the Pacers hope of victory again, and the atmosphere of the fans in the stadium was once again enthusiastic.

In the final moments of the game, Granger broke through and scored a low-handed layup to finally narrow the gap to one point.

At this moment, with 42 seconds left before the end of the game, both teams still have a chance to attack. The Trail Blazers called a short timeout and were clearly about to lay out their final tactics.
