Chapter 4 If this is the lore

The atmosphere at the Center for Conseth was frozen to the extreme, and the fans were on their feet, they hadn't been so excited at the end of the game for a long time.

Both the Trail Blazers and Pacers' benches are very busy, and the final tactical set-up may change the outcome of the game. Especially the Pacers, even if they want to be bad, they are not allowed to rot to the end, after all, no one can accept losing a double-double.

After O'Brien finished arranging the tactics, he slapped the tactics board and shouted: "Boys, the last time has come, we are not allowed to have a double-double result in consecutive defeats, come on, come on, believe in yourself, believe in yourself is okay." ”

Then O'Brien was stunned for a moment and continued: "The lineup doesn't need to change. ”

O'Brien's words meant to let Li Cheng continue to stay on the field, which Li Cheng definitely didn't expect. He never expected to get a chance to play in the most crucial moments, but he quickly reacted and swung his fist firmly at O'Brien.

Seeing Li Cheng's reaction, O'Brien's last trace of doubt also dissipated.

Decided to let Li Cheng play at the end, O'Brien just felt that Dunleavy Jr. was not in shape today, and he had no other ideas, at least now he had no other ideas, his only thought was to win today's game. But little Dunleavy obviously had ideas, and he looked at Li Cheng's gaze with a faint hint of hatred.

"It's this Chinese dog, and I was abandoned by the coach at the last moment? Hum! Trust in the Chinese dog, sooner or later there will be a price. Little Dunleavy was secretly ruthless in his heart.

The game restarted and Blake had possession of the ball across the halfway pitch and he passed it to Roy. Roy was on the ball from beyond the three-point line, and he needed the power to squeeze the next Pacers' offensive time. He's going to score that goal and give the Pacers as little time as possible to attack, and the odds of winning this game will be greatly increased.

With 11 seconds left on the offensive clock, Aldridge suddenly ran to the top of the arc, and Roy started at full speed with his feet.

Granger, who expected Aldridge to block Roy, took a small step to the side and clung to Roy. But just like that, Granger still couldn't stop Roy, after all, he just gave a step. At this time, Li Cheng completely gave up on Outlaw and pounced on Roy instead.

It was O'Brien's final set-up, Roy broke through, and Granger was able to wrap it up as soon as he had the slightest misposition.

Roy is still young after all, his experience in breaking bags is obviously inexperienced, and his ball is in danger of being broken.

"Opportunity! I can break the ball! Mark Boyce shouted.

The fans' cries rose again, and if the ball was broken, the Pacers could easily play a counterattack to put the score in the lead.

However, Roy is young, and Li Cheng and Granger are not old oils. Li Cheng was picked up by a feint from Roy, and then Roy forcibly jumped and touched Li Cheng's hand, successfully deceiving a foul.

Little Dunleavy glanced at Li Cheng, who had been deceived into fouling, pursed his lips disdainfully, and said secretly in his heart: "Hmph! I knew it would be bad to change this puppy. ”

"Ahh You shouldn't be jumping! This is our chance to turn the tables! Mark Boyce said lamentingly.

This time, there was no boos at the scene, but the atmosphere was very depressing, and many fans closed their eyes and did not dare to watch.

With 26 seconds left in the game, Roy was sent to the free throw line, and the Pacers were still trailing by one point, which was undoubtedly worse.

Roy stood at the free-throw line, and the fans sitting behind the basket booed with all their might and waved the inflatable sticks in their hands.

Roy hit the first free throw with a solid shot. But the fans weren't discouraged, and they worked harder to interfere with Roy's second free throw.

It seemed that the fans' efforts paid off, with Roy's second free throw deflected.

"If you miss the second free throw, you must grab the rebound!" Mark Boyce unconsciously clenched his fists while commenting, "Aldridge has lit up the ball, you must grab this rebound!" Murphy, good, he got the rebound. Now we are two points behind and there is still a chance. ”

The Pacers have used up all their timeouts, they don't have a chance to call a timeout and listen to the coach's teachings, and the rest of the game is on their own.

At this point, the ball was in Granger's hands, and he was looking for an opportunity to finish the final blow.

The perfect ending for the Pacers now is to shoot a 3-pointer, but 2 is acceptable, and if they go into overtime, at least there is a chance.

Granger was in possession of the ball and kept looking up at his watch, waiting for the final attack.

With 10 seconds left on the offensive clock, Granger moved, and with a shake he struck straight into the box.

Shoulders against Roy, opening up a bit of space, then took a big step to the basket, followed up with a small jump to dodge Aldridge's defense, and smashed the ball to the rebound with his right hand.

"Granger - small jump - layup!" Mark Boyce shouted, "Oops! The strength is a little bigger, but I didn't enter! Look at this rebound, it's the last chance. ”

Granger couldn't make a layup, the scene was full of gasps, and the hearts of the fans also sank to the bottom, they were about to swallow the bitter fruit of a ten-game losing streak.

However, the basket was in a chaotic battle because of rebounding.

Aldridge wanted to grab the rebound, but Murphy hit the ball.

Jeff Foster slapped the basketball to the rebound, and there was a chaotic battle under the basket, everyone wanted to win the rebound, and the action was not small, but the referee didn't blow it. In the final moments of the game, the referee's scale is very good, and the referee cannot be the final protagonist of the game.

Murphy jumped up again and flicked the ball beyond the three-point line. There are already too many people gathered under the basket, and the outstretched hand can be described as covering the sky, and it may be better to pull the ball out.

At this moment, Li Cheng, who was standing at a 45-degree angle on the left side of the three-point line, only saw the basketball in his eyes getting bigger and bigger, and he faced the basketball and successfully took the ball down.

"The ball flew to the outside, and that's where Lee is." Mark Boyce's name for Li Cheng has changed, he is no longer the "Chinese" he used to be, and his heart is also expecting something to happen.

The Trail Blazers players who were fighting for rebounds on the inside all had their pupils shrunk, and Roy muttered "Damn!" He pounced directly on Li Cheng.

There is not much time left, and Li Cheng can't adjust it if he wants to.

At this time, Li Cheng, who was standing outside the three-point line, was calm in his heart, and he didn't have any stagnation at all after getting the ball, and he jumped and shot directly.

There was no one around him, no one could interfere with his shots. His waist was straight, his left hand held the ball, and his right hand made a series of movements, and the basketball flew to the basket with the sound of the timer returning to zero.
