"Three minutes and thirty seconds, Wood's three points helped Orlando overtake the score, although it was only one point, but for Orlando, this point is the best proof of their efforts, and there are still three minutes and thirty seconds, a time that is not too long or short, and Wood's three points are too crucial." Kenny. Smith continued.
"Bruce, you defend him!" Popovich rushed at Bruce on the field. Bowen shouted.
Bowen heard Popovich's words and immediately communicated with Parker and ran to the frontcourt, and now the Spurs are overtaken by one point, but one point is not a problem at all for the Spurs.
Parker dribbled steadily across the halfcourt, Ginobili's run pulled the Magic's defense, and Tim Lee. Duncan and Milicic battled for position.
Duncan pulled Milicic behind him, holding Milicic behind him with his left hand and raising his right hand high to signal Parker to pass the ball.
Parker made a direct high-profile shot, and the ball jumped over Linson's head and flew inside.
Duncan took a small step with his left foot and took the ball down with his right hand.
Duncan, who won the ball, turned directly and faced Milicic's defense head-on, and Milicic's right hand reached out to Duncan's eyes to prevent Duncan's sudden shot.
"TP hoisted the ball to Thiem, who faced Darko's defence directly, and now Orlando is only one point ahead, and if Darko can prevent this ball and Orlando score the next goal, then the situation is likely to go in a good situation that Orlando himself would not dare to think of." Kenny. Smith said as he stared at Duncan on his waist with the ball in both hands on the court.
Milicic naturally knew that if he could prevent Duncan's attack, it would probably have a great impact on Zuihou's result, so Milicic didn't dare to be careless at all, staring at Duncan in front of him. However, Duncan's face was still the same, without the slightest change in expression. As if he wasn't the one with the ball ready to attack at the moment.
Parker and Ginobili on the perimeter didn't stop running. This made the rest of the Magic not dare to come up and trap Duncan at will.
After two tentative steps in a row, Milicic was not fooled.
Another tentative step, while Duncan lifted the ball up quickly with both hands, leaning back slightly.
Seeing this, Milicic took a quick step forward with his right foot, and he knew that if Duncan was a feint, there would be nothing to jump, so he didn't jump but just put his feet on the ground.
However, Milicic's caution did not allow him to defend Duncan, who saw Milicic pounce and Duncan directly closed the ball and bowed at the same time.
Slap the ball hard. Duncan's left foot stepped straight out and stuck on the left side of Milicic's body, and his left arm swung straight in.
Milicic turned quickly to chase the defence, but was still a beat slow.
Duncan, who took a big stride, jumped straight up, and Chris. Webb's supplementary defense can only become Duncan's background.
"Thiem's one-handed dunk, Chris's defense was already timely, but Thiem still pressed the ball into the basket, Tim San Antonio's most trustworthy guy, he helped San Antonio to overtake by one point." Kenny. Smith said.
Duncan, who succeeded in dunking, let go of the basket, pointed his right hand ahead, and then ran to the backcourt with a blank face.
Milicic looked at Duncan's back, turned around in frustration and walked to the baseline to pick up the ball on the floor.
"It doesn't matter. It's not that there is no time. Lin Sen said to Milicic, took the ball from Milicic and slowly brought it to the front court.
If Lin Sen himself didn't dare to expect victory in the last game. So far in this game, Lin Sen has been particularly yearning for victory, after all, there are only three minutes and fifteen seconds away from victory, and the team is only one point behind, which is not a desperate point difference.
What's more, Tekoglou also left the field because of an injury in this game, and Lin Sen knows that if he doesn't take advantage of this opportunity, he doesn't know when the first victory in the finals will come.
"Oh, Bruce and TP have switched guards, Bruce has re-marked Wood, I think countless people should remember Wood's impressive stunning, Bruce also paid the price of injury for this, and there are not many direct face-to-face encounters between Bruce and Wood in this game, who will be the winner this time?" Kenny. Smith looked at Bruce, who was standing in front of Linson on the field. Bowen said.
"Rookie, it looks like you're suffering from injuries, and to be honest I'm not interested in bullying a sick number." Bruce. Bowen, a gentleman off the court, a caring philanthropist, is absolutely the opposite of each other on the basketball court.
Didn't wait for Linson to speak, Bruce. Bowen continued: "But I found that I was particularly interested in bullying you. ”
The words haven't fallen yet, Bruce. Bowen pressed directly and at the same time pulled his right hand towards the ball in Linsen's left hand.
Boom!
With a slight impact from the two bodies, Linson pulled the ball away from Bruce. Bowen's stab, but Bowen's gentle impact was the right side of his waist, and the pain that had been relieved a lot suddenly came up again.
Gritting his teeth, Lin Sen stabilized the ball while continuing to observe his teammates' positions.
Azubuuk ran straight to his side with a reverse run, while Chris. Webb also ran into the middle distance.
Webb and Azubuuk's run made Robert . Horry and Tony. Parker immediately followed, and Horry followed, and the Spurs interior line was suddenly empty.
"Grant!" Lin Sen shouted loudly and pushed the ball at the same time.
"Wood chose to pass!"
In Kenny. As Smith spoke, Hill received the ball, and Ginobili, who was standing in front of Hill, clung to Hill.
Hill's height is much taller than Ginobili, which makes Ginobili dare not let go of Hill easily, so as not to be shot by Hill.
After Linson passed the ball, Bruce. Bowen did not relax his defense against Lin Sen and still clinged to Lin Sen.
"How can a rookie choose to pass, maybe I can be tolerant ...... today." Bruce. Bowen said next to Lin Sen.
Lin Sen directly bumped into Bowen and forcibly plugged Bowen's trash talk back into his mouth. At the same time, Lin Sen directly turned around and leaned on Bowen to cut inside.
"Damn it!" Bowen scolded in a low voice and turned directly after Lin Sen.
"Wood shook off Bruce!" Barkley shouted. The voice was extraordinarily excited.
Seeing Lin Sen temporarily shake off Bowen. Hill immediately threw the ball at Linson with both hands.
While Linson received the ball, Milicic ran directly to Linsen's side, originally preparing to follow Thiem, who was defending Milicic. Duncan stopped and prepared to make up for Linson.
Boom!
Bruce. Bowen slammed straight into Milicic and was blocked, and Linson cut inside smoothly.
"Wood confronts Thiem's defense!" Kenny. Smith exclaimed.
Lin Sen had already come to a place two steps away from the reasonable collision area at this moment, but Duncan's position made Lin Sen dare not jump at will, but Duncan's position gave Lin Sen an idea.
Holding the ball tightly with both hands, Lin Sen held the ball in his arms and rushed directly towards Duncan instead of avoiding it.
Lin Sen's action immediately made Duncan realize that Lin Sen was here to make fouls.
Duncan realized it when. Lin Sen had already come to him, and Duncan could only jump in a hurry, but Lin Sen plunged directly into Duncan's arms.
The referee's whistle sounded immediately, and Lin Sen, who heard the whistle, also fell backwards, but the moment he poured out, Lin Sen immediately gave up his original idea and became the pursuit of three points as much as possible.
Even though Lin Sen knew at this moment that pursuing three points would make him unable to protect himself from falls, Lin Sen still chose to pursue three points at this moment.
When he was about to fall to the floor, Lin Sen threw it out in his hand.
Bang!
Lin Sen fell directly on the floor and watched the ball fly to the basket, and the pain in his lower back was also forgotten by him.
"It's a three-point opportunity!" Kenny. Smith said, staring at the ball flying towards the basket.
"Three-point, three-point chance! Wood, or Wood. That's the kind of Wood that Orlando needs. Lin, as a Wood Honey I'm proud to have an icon like Wood. Even if it doesn't belong to him now, there must be him in the future. Barkley said, patting the commentary seat.
At this moment, there are about two minutes and fifty seconds left before the end of the game, and Lin Sen has a chance to complete the three-point shot this time, and once the three-point shot is completed, then the Magic will overtake by two points at this time.
Lin Sen, who was lying on the floor, watched the ball pass through the Nets and clenched his fist excitedly, and Duncan, who was fouled by him, looked at Lin Sen on the floor and smiled, which surprised Lin Sen, but Duncan immediately stretched out his hand.
Milicic also walked over on the side, and Lin Sen smiled at Duncan: "Xiexie! ”
Taking Duncan's hand, Linson stood up.
"It's a scene of harmony, and it's David. Instead of being annoyed by Wood for making a foul on him, Stern wanted to see the scene the most, but I don't think the game would diminish the spark. "Kenny. Smith said with a smile.
Amid the boos of the audience, Linson walked to the free-throw line.
"Wood wasn't nervous at all, he looked so confident, wow, he did a common move on a football field - sucking a pacifier, is Wood telling everyone that he's looking forward to being a dad?
If Wood is willing, I think there must be countless women in Shijie who are willing to have children for Wood. "Kenny. Smith said as he watched the Spurs fans at the free-throw line frantically interfering with his free throws to the baseline, making pacifier sucking movements.
Looking at Lin Sen, who was biting the thumb of his right hand at the free throw line, Natalie. Portman smiled very sweetly, and Carolina was extremely envious of Natalie. Portman, too, has never been so anxious to conceive a child as he is at this moment.
"Maybe that sentence is not bad at all, and the woman who becomes a mother is the most beautiful." Carolina thought to herself.
Kenny. Smith next to Charles. Barkley laughed: "That's for sure, I guess they can shoot from the West Coast of the United States directly to the East Coast of China, BINGGO, hit a steady shot, hit a three-point success, and the interference of Spurs fans has no effect in front of Wood." ”
"If you hit a three-pointer, then Orlando has two points ahead of San Antonio at this critical moment, but Greg is not in a hurry at all, of course if I am him, I am not in a hurry, and the most important thing is how Orlando can defend this time."
In Kenny. In Smith's voice, the Spurs immediately turned defense into offense. Parker and Ginobili go hand in hand. Soon came to the front.
Instead of standing in front of Parker, Linson stood in front of Bowen. After all, both Parker and Ginobili are countless times stronger than Bowen's offensive ability.
The Spurs once again put the ball in the hands of Duncan on the inside. Duncan didn't turn around this time and hit the frame single, but chose to have his back to him.
Milicic, who was on top of Duncan, couldn't wait to hang himself directly on Duncan, and the pressure on Duncan Milicic who was attacking with his back was even greater, especially at the moment Duncan was still standing on the right side of the basket.
Duncan hit Milicic three times in a row, and Milicic retreated a little.
Keeping an eye on Grant, Ginobili. Hill only felt a flicker from Ginobili in front of him, and then dodged his body and cut directly into it from the left side at forty-five degrees.
Lin Sen saw Ginobili cut in, and immediately threw away Bowen to chase, while Duncan, who was holding the ball with his back, seemed to have eyes on the back of his head, and his right hand directly flipped his wrist. The ball left Duncan's palm and hit the ground.
Ginobili comfortably got the ball that rebounded to the ground and went straight to the basket.
Lin Sen slowed down, and could only watch as the ball crossed a brief arc and drilled into the basket.
"That's the tacit understanding, Tim and Manu don't need to be observed at all, as if everything is as accurate as the computer has set the haode line, Wood has worked hard, but still slowed down, Manu's pick to help San Antonio tie the score." There was some helplessness in Barkley's voice.
Stan called a timeout, with less than two minutes and ten seconds left before the end of the game, Stan's intention to call a timeout was particularly evident at the moment, and he would bring Dwight back on the court. Dwight's upload will undoubtedly help Orlando strengthen his defense under the basket, even if Dwight doesn't have many opportunities to perform on the offensive end. But his presence could also help his teammates contain the Spurs' defense more. "Kenny. Smith looked at Stan on the sidelines. Van Gundy said.
"Ice packs!" Lin Sen shouted at the team doctor, and when he heard Lin Sen's words, the team doctor immediately sent the ice pack over.
Lin Sen placed the ice pack directly on his waist and listened intently to Stan. Van Gundy lays out the tactics.
"Wood, you take a break, I don't want you to affect your career because of this game, you should know how important the waist is as a player." Stan. Van Gundy paused and looked at Linsen and said.
Lin Sen looked at Stan. Van Gundy: "Coach, I'm fine, trust me!" ”
'Wood seemed to ask for an ice pack, and he put it on his right side of the waist, which is the same position where he was injured in the first half, and I think we completely figured out why Wood's pace and movement changed in the second half. Kenny. Smith said.
And the on-site director quickly gave a close-up, even though Lin Sen was standing among his teammates, he was still scheduled for a close-up.
The ice pack that was steaming was pressed by Lin Sen on his waist, and Lin Sen listened carefully to the coach's arrangement.
Honk!
With a whistle, it's time to pause.
"Stan brought Dwight back on the pitch for Chris, and Greg brought on Oberto for Robert, so obviously it was a targeted substitution, and the game had reached the most critical moment and every attack or defense could change the outcome of Zuihou."
However, the tactics of the Magic arrangement after the timeout did not work, and the sudden increase in the Spurs' defensive intensity made the Magic extremely uncomfortable. Van Gundy watched as the tactics were useless, and the team couldn't find a chance to make a move for twenty seconds of attacking time.
"The Spurs' defensive intensity has suddenly increased, and there are more physical confrontations all of a sudden, and twenty-four seconds are running out of time for Orlando."
When the twenty-four seconds were approaching, the ball was passed back to Linsen by Azubuuk, and seeing that the twenty-four seconds of offensive time was about to come, Linsen could only barely throw the ball, but God was not on Linsen's side, and Linsen's shot bounced directly on the side of the basket under Bowen's interference.
Duncan directly took the defensive rebound, and the Magic didn't dwell on the ball and immediately retreated.
Tony. Parker didn't start but dribbled through the half court unhurriedly, and the seasoned Spurs naturally knew when to go fast and when to slow.
Azubuuk, who was defending Parker, looked cautiously at Parker who was dribbling in front of him, and Parker's unhurried appearance made Azubuk extremely nervous.
Ginobili slipped straight to the inside with the help of Bowen's cover, and under Duncan's cover, Ginobili slipped from the baseline and came from the right side of the basket to the left, and the ball in Parker's hand also arrived at the first time.
In the face of Lin Sen who pounced on the defense, Ginobili did not hesitate to pull up directly and was a backward jumper, Lin Sen interfered as much as possible but still heard the sound he didn't want to hear.
"Manu's goal, the crucial goal, San Antonio regained the lead by two points, and with one minute and twenty-four seconds left before the end of the game, the pressure is back on Orlando!" Kenny. Smith's voice made the Orlando fans in front of the TV nervous, especially when the Magic had just forced a hasty shot under the Spurs' defense.
Linson dribbled the ball past half court, and Bruce. Bowen pulled out the three-point line and waited for Linson.
The Spurs' defense is the same as the last defensive position, and Linson knows that if he wants to tear apart the Spurs' defense like he did just now, it is still very unlikely.
"Breakthrough!" Lin Sen looked up at the basket in the distance and his eyes became firm, while Bruce. Bowen had already rammed into it.
"Rookie, have you forgotten your speed? Let's break through! ”
Boom!
Bruce. Bowen struck again, and at the same time inadvertently hit Lin Sen on the waist with his left hand.
Hiss!
Lin Sen gasped, and the pain that had been alleviated after applying the ice suddenly came back up.
The ball in his hand was almost out of control, and Spurs fans were excited to see it, cheering for Bowen loudly, while the Magic fans in front of the TV and in the field were worried.
"The NBA always needs heroes, stand up!" David in his New York office. Stern whispered as he looked at the huge TV screen, and on the computer screen of his desk in front of him was a series of propaganda around Lin Sen. (To be continued......)
