Chapter 442: Half a Second of Heaven
Knicks sideline ball, this time the Knicks adopted a catch-and-shoot tactic that stood in a horizontal row, but Li Feng's running position was more complicated.
Li Feng was the first to run out of the last position, and the Knicks designed three covers for Li Feng in a row, Monroe cover, JR Smith cover, Rose cover, after three consecutive covers, Li Feng finally got the ball at the top of the arc, Li Feng took the ball at the top of the arc, and all the Knicks players immediately retreated to the bottom line.
At this time, the Knicks also changed to a small lineup, four small men were on the court, and the Pacers did not dare to rush to attack.
After Li Feng got the basketball, he didn't wait at all, he had been waiting for several minutes to catch the ball.
The anxious mood was erect in Li Feng's heart, he couldn't help it at all, took the ball up, and directly faced Granger to break through, Granger just wanted to stick to Li Feng.
saw Li Feng break through in front of Granger, suddenly collected the ball, held the ball in front of Granger with both hands, and then walked a figure-eight, flashing in front of Granger, Li Feng passed.
At this time, Li Feng took a European step with a weightlift, and suddenly passed Granger lightly and skillfully.
When Li Feng passed by, the fans of the Consec Center had time to "Boom!" Exclaimed.
The Pacers' players also thought of helping to defend themselves, but unfortunately it was too late, Li Feng took half a step into the free throw line, jumped, raised his right hand, and came with a long-distance throw.
The basketball flew up and smashed into the Pacers' basket like a small cannonball.
Let Li Feng get the ball, and he will score immediately. At this time, Mr. Xu, who was far away in China, also praised in his magnetic voice:
"Li Feng's scoring ability is really strong! The psychological endurance at critical moments is also top-notch. At this time, it is still so easy to score. ”
Li Feng came back to score points, but the Pacers were not in a hurry at this time, George Hill dodged Dragic's pressing with the ball in the backcourt, and steadily advanced the ball to the Knicks' half. Then I saw that the walker was about to drag down the rhythm.
The Pacers players all took the ball steadily, received the ball steadily, were not in a hurry, and there were 5 seconds left when the time was almost up, and Paul George made a fake move on his own single, and then when Rose jumped small, he was the axis with one foot. Turn backwards. Then shoot straight away.
Paul George's individual skills were pure and he hit the basketball.
The difference is still 7 points, 102-95, but there is only 1 minute 09 seconds left.
This time. Li Feng asked for the ball directly in the backcourt. Monroe also passed the basketball to Li Feng in the backcourt.
Li Feng took the ball and quickly advanced all the way. The Pacers just set up their positions when Paul George wanted to come up and wrap up.
Li Feng bumped Granger with his shoulder, and immediately jumped to the side, stepping back to shoot. Straight stop jump shot.
Li Feng made it so easy to shoot, George Hill hurriedly came up from some other defenses, but unfortunately he came over and touched Li Feng's arm, and Li Feng's ball was also thrown.
Li Feng was pulled by George Hill's arm in the air, and the whole person fell directly to the ground, but the ball thrown by Li Feng simply fell into the Pacers' basket.
Li Feng hit a ball, and a series of cheers broke out on the court. Li Feng scored another goal after another goal, as if it was raining in time. Pulled the Knicks again!
Getting up from the ground, Li Feng got to the free throw line and seriously shot the free throw. This time, Li Feng took a 2+1, but it took only 7 seconds, and 7 seconds to solve the battle.
102-98, the difference has been shortened to 5 points, and there is 1 minute 02 seconds left in the clock, if the Knicks can resist a wave of attacks from the Pacers, there may be real hope.
Hope came, Consec suddenly came to life again, the fans were alive in the audience and cheered towards the court, the Knicks players were all full of strength at once, and Tyberdu also jumped up suddenly and yelled at the court:
"Tight all over the field, press them hard for me!"
Before Tyberdeau's words fell, the Knicks' players immediately came up and pressed George Hill, who was a teenager and an old player in terms of organization.
As soon as he saw that it was pressing, he hurriedly passed the ball to West, who received the ball in the middle of the court and was about to pass it to Granger in the front court, at this time Granger was going to throw another three-pointer, and the game was really over.
But just as the West ball came out, Li Feng appeared on the passing route like a whirlwind, and broke the ball with a hand.
Li Feng broke the ball all of a sudden, and this time Consec's center of gravity sighed and cheered, which was a winning broken ball.
Li Feng, who got the ball, didn't stop at all, turned around and ran wildly towards the Pacers' halfcourt. At this time, West hurriedly pasted up on Li Feng, West had long hands and feet, and came up to harass Li Feng while sticking.
But Li Feng didn't pay attention to him at all, and leaned away from West with his gravity muscles, and turned on the instantaneous speed to pass West in one step, and Li Feng stepped into the Pacers' penalty area. When he arrived in the penalty area, George Hill pounced on the defense, Li Feng suddenly slowed down, leaned on George Hill with his shoulder, and started to wipe the board and shoot.
Li Feng is in the next city! It's two points again!
At this time, Consec finally turned over! Li Feng scored two more points, and the difference was shortened from 5 points to 2 points in an instant.
At this time, there are still 54 seconds left, and the difficulty of chasing 2 points in 54 seconds has plummeted. At the most critical moment, Li Feng decisively and quickly scored 5 points in a row. The speed and determination of the score is outrageous.
Under Li Feng's lightning-like blow, the Pacers' seven-point advantage was wiped out.
At this time, the Pacers also immediately called a timeout, and the Pacers must also score points at the critical moment.
Vogel started to set up his tactics on the touchline, and all he wanted was to hit a ball, and a ball was the winner. The ball was shot, and a Pacer won on defense.
Coming back from the timeout, the Pacers swung into a catch-and-catch tactic in the corner. The four of them stood in a square, the referee blew a whistle, Granger took the lead to run out of the Knicks to attract most of the Knicks' attention, Paul George also took away part of the Knicks' attention, at this time Gerard Green, who replaced Hibbert, just leaned forward after covering Granger, deceived Monroe and then turned around and jumped out of a three-point shot, West's ball went to Gerard Green's hands.
Gerald Green took the ball and shot straight away, throwing out a three-pointer at once. Hibbert was completely out of reach, and the rest of the Knicks' roster didn't think of it.
"Brush!"
Gerard Green's three-pointer went in, and the shot hit it. The Pacers' players were all excited all at once.
There were 56 seconds left in the game. The Pacers are 105-100 again, leading the Knicks by five points.
The situation of the game changed back and forth in less than 20 seconds. At this time, the hearts of the fans were hanging.
Joan Barry and Magic Johnson were also silent, and both of them were emotionally invested in the game.
The game was tense at this time. Monroe passed the ball to Li Feng again on the baseline. In this way, there is no worry that Li Feng will not be able to catch the ball.
Li Feng took the ball before he remembered the speed. But the delay for the walkers was imminent. Li Feng could only control the basketball and slowly advanced to the Pacers' halfcourt. At halftime, the Pacers' bag came up.
And this time it was West and George Hill who came up with the bag. Two monster-like people with long hands and feet immediately sandwiched Li Fengbao in the middle.
Li Feng couldn't rush left and right, and seeing that the time was coming, Li Feng suddenly found that J.R. Smith was very ghostly and quietly moved to the bottom corner of the weak side.
At this time, Li Feng desperately took a step towards the right side of the ball, then jumped up and threw the basketball into the hands of Smith in the weak bottom corner.
Smith's shooting was much more consistent than Rose's, and he took the ball and shot, and the three-pointer simply fell into the Pacers' basket.
J.R. Smith hit, and Consec cheered again. In this way, the score difference has narrowed again.
With 35 seconds left in the game, the Pacers led the Knicks by 2 points at 105-103, and the Pacers possessed the ball.
It's really going to kill at this time!
The Pacers were as steady as Tarzan, George Hill pushed in the backcourt, and Paul George took advantage of West's cover to pocket the ball from the baseline.
The Pacers also had to hit Paul George with the ball, and Paul George immediately withdrew to the outside of the three-point line two steps to confront Rose, and all the remaining players were pulled near the baseline. Looking at Paul George and Rose Single.
Time passed second by second, when the offensive time was only 6 seconds, Paul George came up and did two consecutive changes of direction, dribbling under the crotch and pushing Rose with his shoulder, and then playing his best trick back step, the left and right hands changed, the right hand suddenly retreated, the left hand took the ball and made a step back to the left side at the same time, collected the ball and then directly shot a jumper.
Paul George's previous movements were done extremely perfectly, but at this time Rose finally flashed, he completely captured Paul George's movements this time, and when Paul George jumped, Rose immediately sealed Paul George's eyes, causing Paul George's mid-range shot to be very powerful.
The basketball smashed into the Knicks' basket at once, and Paul George missed, with nearly 10 seconds left.
But at this time, West suddenly appeared, and he reached out and actually took this crucial frontcourt rebound away from the heads of many Knicks teams.
In 10 seconds, the Knicks lost the rebound, and the Knicks were hopeless.
West, who got the ball, immediately hugged and protected it, but at this time, the young players of the Knicks were stupid, and no one went up to foul West.
At this time, West immediately passed the basketball out, he was in the three-second zone, and he was afraid that he would attack for three seconds.
The basketball flew out of West's hand and fell into the hands of Paul George, who took a step to the side with the ball for some reason.
At this step, it gave the Knicks a chance, Rose stepped forward and instinctively defended desperately, blocking Paul George's sight, Li Feng arrived from the side at this time like a gust of wind, and with a little hand, Paul George's ball was pointed.
Then dribbled with his left hand, took two big steps, and reached the Pacers half-court center circle a little outside, to this position, there were only 2 seconds left in the time, Li Feng got up and leaned forward with his whole body, and threw the ball hard.
The ball flew out of the air. Fly far!
At the end of the game, the red light came on, and the ball was only halfway flying. The time is over, the game is not yet.
The basketball smashed straight to the top of the rebound, then bounced back to the basket, jumped up more than a meter, and then touched the rebound, spun and changed some trajectories, and finally fell into the basket.
Goal, scored!
The ball is in!
The ball really went in!
Knicks fans at this time from Consec. After stretching out my neck to confirm that this ball was scored. The tens of thousands of people in the entire stadium seemed to have been kicked in the ass, and they collectively jumped up suddenly, and let out all kinds of venting shouts towards the sky of the stadium.
The chaotic shouts in the audience, Li Feng's eyes also widened. Carefully reminisce about the past in your mind. He himself was sure. Ball. Really entered.
After confirming that the ball was hit, Li Feng raised his hands high to meet the cheers like rolling thunder. And there are those who rush towards themselves. Teammates like a tidal wave.
Consec went into a frenzy, and the Knicks slipped into ecstasy.
But the Pacers players saw the ball and it went in.
The group, including Vogel on the bench, all looked incredulous.
The group shook their heads together. I have to say that Li Feng's ball is too lucky, it is difficult enough to shoot from a long distance, and it is even more difficult to hit the rebound and rebound to the edge of the basket.
Now Li Feng's shot is not only super long-distance, but also smashed to the rebound and then to the hoop, and can change the trajectory and fall into the basket at the very end.
This luck is not ordinary!
The Pacers' defeat today really smells of being knocked down by fate.
At the end of the game, the cheers and applause of the fans at the scene lasted for a long time, and Joanbari looked at the stadium for a long time before he reflected and said:
"It's so far, it's impossible!" At this time, it was Magic Johnson, because he was not a Pacer person, so he was more sober and to the point.
The game was over, and Li Feng ended the game with a stunning ultra-long-range shot. Today the Knicks won! The way they won the game can be described as miraculous. ”
The game is over, and the Knicks have won! In the cheers of the fans, the ESPN reporter was not yet a Pacers fan, and he almost rushed in front of Li Feng with a jumping defense and put the microphone in front of Li Feng.
"Li Feng, your three points are simply amazing. Do you usually have special training for this way of shooting? ”
The ESPN reporter was obviously a little overly excited, and he was a little incoherent when talking to Li Feng.
Li Feng is actually most afraid of people asking about this last shot, and Li Feng does have a lot of luck this time. Li Feng is a straight man again, he won't talk about his luck, so when Li Feng was asked this question, he suddenly said directly with some embarrassment:
"The last ball, I'm blind! There is no way at all, it can only be like this, and the ball is in the middle of the ball. That's our luck, but I'm going to practice shooting from long distance. This may be useful in the game! ”
Li Feng frankly admitted his luck, which made the reporter a little stunned, he thought that Li Feng would say that his ball was out of the blue? But it doesn't matter, the reporter immediately asked from another angle:
"Li Feng, you played very well in today's game! Throughout the game, whenever the team needed it, you were able to jump out and take responsibility. What do you think of your performance today as a whole and the performance of the team? ”
The reporter's question is routine. Li Feng also had a routine at this time, and he replied:
'I'm happy with my performance today, but there's a lot of balls I haven't dealt with and I'm very happy with the team, I have a good group of team-mates.
Li Feng answered the questions of the two people and returned to the players' tunnel, at this time on both sides of the tunnel were the enthusiastic cheers of New York fans, as well as the enthusiastic hands stretched out.
Li Feng high-fived them one by one, and then ran into the players' tunnel. The fact that we can beat the Pacers today really makes Li Feng, the Knicks, and the whole of New York very excited.
On the second day of the game, the New York Times sports headline reported the Knicks' victory over the Pacers.
On the headlines, the New York Post headline was "Knicks Rising, Aiming for a Triple Championship"
This year's New York is not only expected to win the East Division, but also the overall championship.
Because of a game, New York has become arrogant like this, first because of the media's deliberate promotion, such a hype gimmick. The second point is that New Yorkers do have such aspirations for the Knicks.
New York fans naturally hope that the team can return to the top and then dominate the league!
With the push of the media and the desire of the fans, the team just beat the Pacers again. The whole of New York was in full swing, and almost all of the New York media were singing the praises of the team.
The praise of the media and the expectations of the fans simply lifted the New York Knicks to the sky.
At the same time, the media around the world were also following the game, after all, the Knicks won away from the Pacers.
This win is not a regular season game in the ordinary sense, the Knicks made a big comeback in the third quarter, and the whole game played a finals-level offense and defense with the Pacers. To a large extent, this victory is very valuable.
Although Li Feng's shooting is lucky, but the scramble before the shot is real, without real scramble and defense, there will be no chance for Li Feng after the worst, and the so-called luck is also based on the opportunity.
The Knicks won over the Pacers, and the media in the world didn't have the same frenzy as the New York media, but they all realized one thing.
This year, it is extremely terrifying to have Li Feng join the Knicks, they are terrible on defense, and Li Feng is strong on offense.
Now that the Knicks have changed the pattern of the East, and even the overall pattern of the entire league, from today onwards, people will not be able to look at the Knicks with the Young Guard, but with the standard of Haoqiang.
The Knicks passed this stop and established their status as qualified for a triple championship. (To be continued......)
