Chapter 5063: Win Game 1 of the Playoffs!!
After scoring this goal, there were only seven seconds left in the game.
This is also the reason why Reggie Miller quickly dribbled to the frontcourt, did not delay a little time, and directly started shooting.
The players of the Indiana Pacers know a thing in their hearts.
The Knicks must not be allowed a chance to stall for time!
So, when Da Yao stood outside the baseline and successfully passed the basketball in his hand to Aaron Iverson.
The Indiana Pacers players were fouled at the first time.
In fact, the guy they would have preferred to receive the basketball was not Allen Iverson.
But there is no way, the cooperation of the Knicks players is too tacit.
After several consecutive blocking and pick-and-roll cooperation, Allen Iverson still found a gap to receive Da Yao's pass.
Of course.
In fact, it makes no difference if someone else receives the basketball.
Han Ning now has several players on the court, and his ability to shoot free throws is very good.
So, whoever goes to the free throw is the same, it doesn't make a difference.
Aaron Iverson stepped to the free-throw line.
As the referee's whistle blew, Allen Iverson slapped the basketball in his hand and then slowly raised his arms.
"Huh!"
A penalty is a solid hit.
The Knicks fans present suddenly breathed a sigh of relief.
After the free throw, the difference between the two teams was back to three points.
Even if Allen Iverson's second free throw missed.
This 3-point advantage can also ensure that the Knicks will never be killed by the Indiana Pacers.
At most, it's a tie and the game goes to extra time.
In other words, after scoring this free throw, the Knicks are already invincible.
However, Allen Iverson's free throw shooting is pretty good right now.
He simply didn't intend to give the Indiana Pacers players a glimmer of hope.
"Huh!" Bang!
The second free throw is scored!
The gap between the two teams is 4 points!
With less than 7 seconds left in the game, the results speak for themselves.
If only it can complete the turnaround.
That's a little miracle!
The Indiana Pacers called a short timeout.
Then, the center circle made a free throw.
The basketball was passed to Reggie Miller.
Reggie Miller received a pass from his teammate and started shooting straight away.
"Bang dang!"
The basketball smashes the basket and comes out.
The rebound was protected by the Indiana Pacers players.
It's a little bit of a pity.
Reggie Miller's shot was slightly off.
So after the basketball smashed on the basket, it bounced off a considerable distance.
Da Yao and Mutombo were both unable to compete for the rebound.
Otherwise, the game would be over.
The Indiana Pacers player stole the basketball and passed it directly to Reggie Miller again.
As the best player on the Indiana Pacers' roster with the best three-point shooting ability and the best key shot, Reggie Miller is definitely going to take responsibility at this time.
After receiving the ball, jump again and shoot.
"Huh!"
This time, it scored!
The score between the two teams has come to 1 point!
It seems that the score gap is very small!
However, everyone understands.
The Indiana Pacers have lost!
It's been a long time since I missed the first shot, grabbed the rebound, and scored the second shot.
Now, there are only 0.87 seconds left in the game time!
In less than a second!
Or the Knicks' possession!
The results of the competition are irrevocable!
It is obviously the smallest point difference, but it is the most difficult gap to overcome!
Right now, the Indiana Pacers players have given up on this game and are starting to shake hands with the Knicks players.
In the end, the game was announced to be over at the moment when the whistle blew after Da Yao passed the basketball out.
With a score of 109-108, the Knicks managed to win the first game of the first round of the playoffs.
If you haven't watched this game, when you see this score, you will definitely feel that the final stage of this game must be very exciting and tense.
After all, it's only one point away!
Couldn't that be a drama staged by all kinds of lore balls and anti-lore balls?!
But in fact, all the fans who have watched this game know very well.
This whole game is actually under the control of the Knicks.
Even if it's the final stage of the game.
The Indiana Pacers caught up with a four-point deficit and scored two three-pointers in a dozen seconds.
But it's still in the hands of the Knicks.
It can only be said that Reggie Miller's two three-pointers can be regarded as a death struggle at best.
Therefore, after watching this game, Knicks fans are relieved.
Being able to win the first game like this means that the absence of Kurt Thomas did not have much impact on the Knicks' performance in the first round of the playoffs.
The Knicks should easily win the first round of the playoffs and advance.
By the time of the next round of the playoffs, Kurt Thomas would be back from injury.
At that time, the Knicks team, with a full lineup, will not need to worry about anything!
The defending championship is just around the corner!
However, this is what the fans who watched the game thought.
But those fans who didn't see the process of the game, only saw the final score of the game, don't think so.
The Knicks, after missing Kurt Thomas, faced a not-so-strong team like the Indiana Pacers at home, and actually won by only 1 point!
What does this mean?!
It shows that the Knicks may be eliminated by the Indiana Pacers!
All of a sudden, there was polarization on the Internet about the Knicks' performance in the playoffs.
On the one hand, there are fans who have watched the game and firmly believe that the future of the Knicks is promising.
On the other hand, the fans who did not watch the game, but only saw the final result of the game, thought that the Knicks were going to die. There's a good chance the Indiana Pacers can accomplish the feat of Black Eight!
Fortunately, only one game was played in the first round of the playoffs.
So on the web, it hasn't caused a big stir yet.
The fans on both sides did not have much of an argument.
................
As the days passed, the games between the Knicks and the Indiana Pacers were also going on one by one.
