Chapter 515: 0.5 Seconds to Win
The Spurs' offense has mistakes, and the way they score at the end is not beautiful, but the process is full of iron and blood. It's almost a fight to get a point, so once the Spurs get those two points.
"Whoa!"
The whole stadium was cheering, and the Spurs fans were really excited, this kind of iron and blood, this kind of fighting with the opponent's real guns, fighting for muscles is the style of the Spurs team.
The Spurs fought for two points, 111-108, and the difference was stretched to three points again, with one and a half points left in the game.
The game reached this point, both teams saw blood, and the players on the Knicks' side were also excited and nervous. This feeling is something that everyone who plays can experience, the more critical the ball, the more high-intensity the game, the more refreshing the ball will be.
Li Feng is also happy to kill now, this is the game, and it is interesting to compete with a team like Spurs.
Dragic's side pushed in and passed the ball again to Kirilenko, who picked up the ball at the top of the arc. Li Feng used Cousins' cover to run towards it and exchanged passes with Kirilenko, which can be regarded as getting the ball safely.
It is not easy for Li Feng to receive the ball, much more difficult than to get the ball in the backcourt, but for the whole team, there are more changes and threats to receive the ball in this way.
Li Feng had two anti-sky balls in front of him, and at this time Li Feng got the basketball, and the Spurs immediately doubled up.
At the critical moment, the Spurs really dared to bet that Duncan and Leonard would come together to trap Li Feng and prevent Li Feng from moving.
Li Feng also experienced the strength of this bag, Duncan and Leonard's bag is not weaker than the Bulls' Okafoga Iguodala's bag. Both of these people have the body, experience, and tacit cooperation, in front of this kind of bagging, the general means of passing are not good.
Li Feng carried Leonard hard, put his head on Duncan's chest, and finally found a passing route.
Li Feng made a ground-hitting pass and stuffed the basketball directly into Dragic's hands. Dragic just got the ball here, and the Spurs' rotational defense arrived.
Dragic wanted to pass back to Li Feng, but Li Feng was robbed of the pass route by Leonard, so Dragic only passed the ball to Dragic, who had a little space on the outside.
Dragic took the ball and squeezed Parker to dribble to the free throw line in one step, and when he got to this position, Dragic took the ball and raised his hand to make a feint, and when Leonard was a little stunned, Dragic finally found Li Feng who cut in with a ground pass.
Li Feng just used a turn to run, instantly passed Leonard, picked up the basketball and went straight to the basket.
When Duncan came up to help defend it. Because Li Feng had been prepared, when Duncan came over, Li Feng suddenly made a pass from behind.
Li Feng's behind-the-back pass passed through Duncan's armpit, flew past the back of Split's head, passed through a piece of people under the basket, and accurately fell into the hands of Kirilenko in the bottom corner.
Kirilenko got the ball on the bottom line and was empty, and when Kirilenko got the ball, Jonambari also subconsciously roared immediately:
"Spurs defend!"
And Bill Wharton shouted:
"Good chance!"
At such a fatal moment, Kirilenko got an open space without the ball on the bottom line. When the heartstrings of the whole audience were tied to Kirilenko.
Kirilenko bent over, lifted the ball, and threw a three-pointer with his pass-like defense.
Before this three-pointer. Kirilenko shot 0 of 6 three-pointers, but at this critical moment, Kirilenko's heart was like water, and the opportunity was in his hands. He didn't dodge or be afraid, so he just shot.
"Huh!"
Kirilenko's seventh shot was finally on target. So once the ball is hit. The Knicks' bench is completely insane.
Tyberdu also waved his arms with rare passion, and Li Feng also jumped over and punched Kirilenko in the chest.
This ball is too critical, critical to the point of deciding life and death, at this critical moment, Li Feng made a wonderful pass, and Kirilenko hit it.
In this case, even if the spirit is as strong as the Spurs, they feel the trembling, and the Knicks' fighting spirit is not weaker than theirs.
At this time, Bill Wharton also said:
"The Knicks don't really look like a young team, they're so solid with the ball and they're good for multiple passes. This team has a bright future! ”
Compared with Bill Wharton, Joan Barry suffered a big blow:
"The Spurs' defense was good enough, but Li Feng was still able to find an open space, which was terrible, and Kirilenko's seventh shot was also on the line, so we lacked some luck."
Joanbari is obviously a little sour here, 111-111, the two teams are tied. That's when the Spurs came over again.
They immediately played a no-ball tactic launched by Ginobili, and no matter how Spurs played, it still fell into the hands of the Big Three.
Ginobili ran around the court in a team-wide fight-style pick-and-roll and finally got the basketball on the wing.
Ginobili, who got the basketball, threw a quick three-pointer in the moment before Dragic pounced.
As soon as Ginobili made a move at the critical moment, the frightened Knicks were immediately restless, but at this time, Ginobili was not omnipotent, and no one was omnipotent.
Ginobili finally missed this shot, Ginobili missed the three-point shot here, and Kirilenko finally stuck the rebound.
The Spurs suddenly made a steal on the spot, and Duncan and Parker came together to wrap Kirilenko.
Kirilenko suddenly encountered this kind of defense and tried to hold the basketball in his arms, but as soon as the basketball fell.
Parker's imp-like claws left home and took out the ball in Kirilenko's arms, and Parker broke Kirilenko's ball under the basket.
Parker, who broke off the ball, raised his head and immediately threw a throw, wanting to sneak attack to score points, but it was the moment he shot.
Li Feng flew out behind him, and Li Feng "Bang!" on Parker's head! With a bang, Li Feng came up and blocked Parker.
Parker is also a ruthless person, even if he was blocked once, picked up the basketball under the basket, and made another feint to shake off Li Feng.
But it's okay that he didn't make this feint, once he did this feint, Li Feng immediately grabbed the basketball with both hands like pliers.
Li Feng grabbed the basketball that Parker had raised. Desperately pulling back, seeing that Li Feng was about to grab the ball.
At this time, Duncan also rushed up, and Kirilenko also rushed up, when several people under the basket were about to start a scuffle.
The referee saw that these people were overly passionate, and the ball was not handled well and might have to be played, so the referee hurriedly came over and separated several people and awarded a scrum.
Scrums are the fairest, and it's up to them to fight or not, but once the referee makes such a decision, Boston Stadium is still booed. Because of letting Parker and Li Feng compete for the ball, fools know that Lu Dao has an advantage in that aspect.
Li Feng and Parker stood up, the referee threw the basketball out, and then Li Feng flew up all of a sudden, half an arm higher than Parker and pointed the basketball into Dragic's hands.
Dragic picked up the ball at the crucial moment and didn't hesitate to head towards the Spurs' half.
Ginobili and Leonard pounced at this time, and the desperate pursuit of these two people behind Dragic did not completely catch up with Dragic, and when Dragic ran with all his strength, he quickly threw a high throw in front.
Dragic is rich and dangerous. But Dragic's shot was actually too fast, and he didn't hit.
Dragic missed a shot on his side, and Leonard then grabbed the rebound.
As soon as the Spurs grabbed the rebound, they called a timeout. Because there are only 41 seconds left until the end of the game.
With only 41 seconds left, the best offensive tactic for the Spurs is naturally to play a fast game first, and then defend a successful round. Then master the initiative to win the next round.
The first quick attack of 41 seconds, not too long, not too short. Too much time is left for the Knicks, and they have less time, and too long will ruin the plan. It's an offensive tactic that requires a lot of control, but it's not too much of a problem for Spurs.
After the timeout, the Spurs tee off on the sideline, Parker scurried out to get the ball, and then the Spurs spread out.
Ginobili suddenly started from the sideline, and when everyone thought that the Spurs were going to play no-ball tactics again, Ginobili suddenly ran out and gave Duncan space, and then Ginobili took the ball and quickly knocked Duncan to make a strong hit on the wing.
The Spurs are still using Duncan's height, and Duncan did not hesitate to turn around and shoot after taking the ball.
At the critical moment, Duncan just worked, and Duncan shot this ball steadily. There is no superfluous action, it is to use the height to hit you, and this is the rhythm of the critical moment.
113-111, the Spurs are 2 points ahead of the Knicks, and the Spurs have a good time, only leaving 32 seconds for the Knicks, the Spurs themselves used 9 seconds, leaving 32 seconds for the Knicks, and the Knicks also play fast, so there is almost no second chance, play a 24 seconds, and have to leave the Spurs 8 seconds.
At this time, the Knicks have no choice but to play this round well.
In this round, Li Feng didn't take the ball in the front court, he took the ball directly in the backcourt, and Li Feng ran over with the ball in the backcourt.
The Spurs didn't wrap it up, but waited and watched, and the Spurs also gambled with the Knicks at this time, so they bet on Li Feng not to hit.
Li Feng was also watching the time with the ball at this time, and he didn't want to leave more time for the Spurs.
At this time, it was Leonard who stood in front of Li Feng to defend Li Feng, and he was already familiar enough with Leonard and Li Feng. Li Feng singled out Leonard with confidence, but the key thing was that behind Leonard, Duncan was also standing there waiting for him.
In this way, Li Feng needs to spend some effort, 10 seconds, 9 seconds, 8 seconds, 7 seconds, when the time is 7 seconds, Li Feng slowly moves, dribble one step towards the left, and then immediately accelerate and dribble again.
Li Feng launched an attack all of a sudden, walking towards the side, and Leonard and Duncan really rushed towards Li Feng at once.
Li Feng was caught by two bags this time did not panic, but against the two people, pulled a little, just when the Spurs' defense was about to concentrate on the sideline. Li Feng suddenly played a crotch pass and sent the basketball towards Duncan's crotch.
The basketball went straight to Cousins, who ran from the high post to the basket, and Cousins took the ball and made an easy layup.
Li Feng attracted all the attention to the sideline at the last moment, and actually gave Cousins an assist at the last minute.
The two teams drew again, and after Li Feng's two consecutive anti-sky attacks, now there are two more anti-sky assists, which hold the game to the last 8 seconds.
After 8 seconds, the two teams are still 113-113, and the Spurs have the ball at this time. Or immediately called a timeout.
The Spurs called a timeout, which was sure to play a tactical offense at the very end. And the Spurs have too many killer options in their last moments, and the Knicks are on the verge of danger at this point.
After the pause, the Spurs' position was still very scattered, and the Spurs did not adopt a starburst tactic, nor did they adopt a concentrated horizontal row run, but a scattered position, which means that the Spurs have many options, and the Knicks are difficult to defend.
The whistle blew suddenly, and Matt Bonner, who was on the sideline, threw the basketball out suddenly. The basketball went to Duncan in the high post first.
Duncan himself is a terrible attacker, and when Kirilenko hurriedly pounced, Duncan turned around and passed the ball to Ginobili behind him, who took the ball and clicked Dragic, who thanks to not jumping, so that Ginobili broke through and passed the ball back to Leonard.
When Leonard was about to receive the ball here, Li Feng suddenly seemed to have predicted this pass. The whole person jumped up at once, knocked Leonard away, and hit the basketball with one hand.
The basketball is out of control. The Spurs' Duncan and Parker immediately jumped together to save the ball, and the two of them quickly fought hard, but Li Feng was closer to the ball, and Li Feng clicked. Then he threw the basketball to the front court with one hand.
And there was no one in the field, and it was time to compete with speed, and Ginobili and Dragic went to chase together.
In the instantaneous run, Ginobili was so slow. But just such a line, let Dragic grab the basketball, grab the basketball Dragic turned around and passed to Li Feng. Li Feng ran over to catch the ball, and there were 0.5 seconds left.
0.5 seconds, Li Feng is one step away from the three-point line, but at this time Li Feng has no time, he can only shoot, he can only believe in himself.
The moment you catch the ball, bend your knees, jump, wave your wrist, and take off the basketball, the red light is on, but the ball is still flying.
The fans on the pitch stood up, the players paused, and Joanbarry and Bill Wharton held their breath.
Time seemed to stand still, but just a moment later, the basketball quietly passed through the net. So the ATT arena was quieter, but Li Feng jumped up suddenly, and the Knicks players seemed to come back to life and galloped towards the court.
The Knicks players all rushed to Li Feng and threw Li Feng high, and they were excited to vent all their strength on Li Feng.
And the Spurs players are expressionless, and with Popovich on the side of the court, only Leonard has obvious resentment on his face.
……
The Knicks vs. the Spurs, the last two minutes of the game, won the last 2 minutes.
Today, the whole game, the two teams were entangled, the Spurs counterattacked four times, and each time the Knicks desperately blocked it. The last time the Spurs finally overtook them, but the last time they were finished by Li Feng.
The game between the two teams can be said to have been entangled, constantly entangled, fighting against resistance.
In such a game, the Spurs played unyielding tenacity, and the Knicks played a strong fighting spirit, and I just want to suppress you.
The game between the two teams was completely played with super high intensity, so after this game. The media mostly gave the two teams the same and high ratings.
The media unanimously believes that although the Spurs lost the game, the Spurs definitely played a super high-level game, with a very low error rate throughout the game, the tactics were well organized, and the team's core players also played their roles.
This Spurs completely performed team basketball, so the game was lost, this is due to luck, and it is also caused by Li Feng being too strong, so although the Spurs lost the game, the Spurs still received a lot of praise, especially the academic commentators think that as far as the team is concerned, the Spurs performed better.
When the Spurs were recognized, the Knicks also received unanimous praise.
Many commentators are surprised by the Knicks' will quality, and the Knicks can withstand it when competing with the Spurs for will, which is quite not easy, just with this will quality, even if the Knicks team does not have stars, this is also a playoff team.
The media gave the two teams equally high marks, and after the game, Kirilenko, who scored the key shot, also said after the game:
"We won, but we learned a lot from the Spurs, and the will of a championship team is really extraordinary."
Smith, who did not perform well in this game, also said:
"Spurs are really a strong team, their defense is suffocating, and playing against a team like this is the only way to appreciate their shortcomings."
Li Feng also said after the game: "
It's not easy to win against these old guys, it takes everything we have. ”
The Knicks won the game and gave a lot of comments while praising the Spurs.
While the Knicks praised the Spurs, the Spurs didn't appreciate it.
Leonard complained about Li Feng after the game:
"Li Feng's scrum against Parker is very unfair, and that ball should belong to us."
Leonard was in a bad mood after losing and was still complaining about the details of the game, and Parker also had quite an opinion about Li Feng after the game.
"Li Feng has a lot of scoring ability, but it's really dirty to defend!"
Parker did not oppose Li Feng, but at this time, he said that Li Feng's defense was dirty, which obviously meant to vent his grievances.
But this is the character of Spurs, Spurs are like this, they will never admit defeat, even if they lose, they will not admit defeat.
Spurs are such a group of people and a team, and there is absolutely no concept in their dictionary that they are inferior to others or cannot win. (To be continued......)
