Chapter 233: God of War VS God of War (10,000-word chapter)

On May 22, the Eastern Conference Finals G3 officially began.

Unlike the style of play between the Thunder and the Mavericks, most of the games between the Bulls and the Heat are physical confrontations and score inside the three-point line.

The confrontation between the two sides in the first quarter was directly full, 15:18, the Heat only led by 3 points, and the game was deadlocked in the second and third quarters, but the Heat played an efficient offense in the last quarter and finally won the game.

At 85:96, the Heat team at home successfully defeated the Bulls with an excellent performance in the fourth quarter, and the series score came to 2:1.

Derrick Rose had just 20 points, 5 rebounds, 5 assists and 2 turnovers in the game, but Rose failed to step up in time in the fourth quarter when the team needed to score the most.

In contrast, LeBron James performed very well in the fourth quarter, scoring 10 points on 3-of-5 and 4-of-4 free throws in the first quarter to give the Heat the victory.

Of course, the Heat's best performance was Chris Bosh, the former Dragon King made 13 of 18 from the field that night, scoring 34 points, 5 rebounds, 2 assists, 2 steals, 1 block and 2 turnovers, and his efficient performance once again proved his worth.

LeBron James actually rarely shot in this game, and finally got 22 points, 6 rebounds, 10 assists, 2 steals and 2 blocks, in addition to the excellent play in the 4th quarter, the most important thing is that there are no mistakes!

Wade didn't shoot well from the field, finishing with only 17 points, 9 rebounds, 3 assists and 4 turnovers.

The Big Three combined for 73 points, and their performance is still very good!

The Bulls made 5 of 12 three-pointers, the Heat made 3 of 9 three-pointers, and many Amerika's media reporters and commentators also breathed a sigh of relief after watching the game.

That's the normal rhythm of the game!

The Mavericks threw 32 three-pointers in one game, which is outrageous...

Broadcaster TNT commented immediately after the game, and host Ernnie Johnson directly praised James' performance:

"Maybe we all underestimated LeBron's passing ability, but tonight he sorted out the game very well, with 10 assists and no turnovers, and the stats don't show his role."

"The Heat are great, but the Bulls players aren't as good as they could be in the playoff-caliber defense, and Derrick Rose should step up in the fourth quarter, which is perhaps why he's not as good as Kayce in the MVP draft."

Kenny Smith didn't say anything nice about Rose again this time.

After all, role players have taken their responsibilities, and Rose, as a core player, has failed to show the determination to win the game, which is really difficult for fans to accept.

"I think Kayce and Rose are no different, they both lost, didn't they? The team was also 2-1 down. ”

"Compared to the Heat, the Thunder are almost in a desperate situation at the moment, and the next game is still in Dallas, if the Mavericks continue to maintain this feeling, then the Thunder will not have any chance!"

Charles Barkley spoke for Ross with a serious face, and by the way, he also pulled Li Ze into the topic.

After all, this is a hot spot in the league, and only by rubbing it off can you increase the ratings.

"Come on, man! Since the last round, Kayce's shooting percentage has remained above 60%, and his performance has been very consistent in every game. ”

"If you look at his opponents, the defensive Grizzlies and the defending champion Lakers, there is no comparison between the two performances."

Host Earnie Johnson nodded when he heard Kenny Smith's words, and then asked another question:

"Guys, you're also an All-Star in the league, what would you do to win the game in the face of the Mavericks' crazy projection?"

"Seriously, the G2 Mavericks took 29 shots from beyond the three-point line and shot more than 4 percent, so maybe I can handle a game like this."

"But in G3, I made 20 of 32 shots, and this is the first time I've seen a three-pointer like this in the playoffs."

"The Thunder's defense has done a good job, and I don't have a good way to do it, the only thing I can do is pray, pray that the opponent's touch will drop, it's crazy!"

Kenny Smith's words didn't resonate with Charles Barkley, with the famously big-mouthed laughing before going on to say his tough-guy basketball theory again:

"I've always maintained the same opinion, the Thunder lack a big man who can solve problems in the low post, and if it were me, the Mavericks' interior would be full of fouls early on, look at Perkins and Ibaka's lame low post skills!"

"But the Mavericks will use accurate three-pointers to completely explode your perimeter, and believe me, with your height, you will never be able to limit Nowitzki's play!"

Host Ernnie Johnson heard the argument between the two and immediately laughed:

"Kenny has a point, Chuck, it's not an inside issue."

"The Thunder didn't lose to each other in rebounding, on the contrary, they won two rebounds in both games, but 3 points are one more point than 2 points, even you, still can't solve this problem!"

"Of course, this is definitely bothering the Thunder's coaching staff, and I'm looking forward to tomorrow's game to see how our youngest MVP in history responds!"

On May 23rd, the Western Conference Finals G4 will officially start tonight.

The broadcaster, ESPN, did a rich pre-match warm-up for this game.

In the last game, Jason Terry hit 9 three-pointers in a single game, tying the previous record of three-pointers in a single playoff game held by Ray Allen, Vince Carter, and Rex Chapman, tied for the first place in history!

Jason Terry, who is in good form, was also very arrogant in an interview with ESPN before the game.

"Jason, can you tell us about your tactics for this game? Will you continue the three-point shooting strategy you did in the last game? ”

Hearing such a question, Jason Terry grinned, and then replied very confidently:

"Of course! We're still going to shoot from beyond the three-point line, I'm confident that I'm hitting those three-pointers, they can't limit our outside play, and we're going to take advantage of the home-court advantage and try to finish the series tonight." ”

The Dallas reporters at the scene immediately smiled when they heard Jason Terry's words.

There is no better situation than this, the hand is bursting, the big score is 2:1 ahead, and G4 is still in Dallas, even God is helping the Mavericks, and the finals are already beckoning to them!

Nowitzki seemed very calm in an interview, after all, he has experienced the Black Eight and experienced the reversal of the Finals, and in his opinion, as long as the series is not over, the opponent still has a chance.

Therefore, the median middle distance that he also answered in the interview was just a low-key statement:

"Living up to the expectations of the Dallas fans, we are confident that we can win the game tonight!"

The home team's pre-game press conference made Mavericks fans scream with excitement.

The team has struggled since the reversal in the Finals, but this year they see hope again, and everyone hopes to win the first championship in team history this year!

At the American Airlines Center Arena that night, the atmosphere was about to explode!

After the players from both sides came out, the DJ played Queen's classic old song "We will rock you", which quickly brought the atmosphere to a climax.

“We will, We will rock you!”

In the rhythmic music, Champ, the Mavericks mascot wearing the white jersey of the home court, jumped up and down, constantly guiding the emotions of the audience.

The game is about to start, and on the ESPN broadcast seat, the three of commentator Mike Breen, guest Jeff Van Gundy, and Mark Jackson are dressed in formal clothes and appear in front of the camera again.

"It looks like the Dallas fans are ready, it's an amazing home atmosphere, the two teams didn't change their starting line-ups tonight, and I'm really looking forward to seeing how both sides play tonight!"

"Do you think the Mavericks can pick up where they were in the last game and keep shooting those incredible three-pointers?"

Hearing the narrator's inquiry Mike Brin, Jeff Van Gundy was the first to speak:

"I really can't predict this kind of problem, the Mavericks have broken my basketball perception since G2, in the Western Conference Finals, to maintain this kind of outside shooting percentage, my subconscious tells me that this kind of thing is hard to happen, but NBA games sometimes work miracles!"

When Mark Jackson heard his old partner's words, he nodded quite approvingly, and then said with emotion:

"Through this series, I also learned the importance of three-point shooting, I don't know if the Mavericks can do miracles, but they still have a huge advantage at home."

"It's going to be a test for the young lads of the Thunder as well, and I'm really looking forward to the response they have tonight!"

The three of them did not discuss too much about the technical and tactical play in the commentary booth at the scene, as ESPN's broadcaster analyzed before the game, the Thunder's outside defense did not have problems in the last game, and the rebounding also won the opponent.

But the Mavericks are accurate, quasi-scary, so all the pre-game discussions revolve around the Mavericks' outside play tonight.

The players of both teams are in the final pre-match warm-up, and Li Ze still looks relaxed.

The big score is 1:2 behind, there is no need to think too much at this time, and it doesn't matter if the tactics are reasonable or not, hitting the response ball and sending the ball to the basket is what he should do tonight!

Turtle and Durant looked serious, in the two days of recovery training sessions, the Thunder no longer talked and laughed, only by winning the game tonight, they can regain the initiative, otherwise the season is basically over

The game was about to start, and Coach Brooks called the players in front of him, held the tactical board, and told again:

"Guys! I emphasize again, when encountering the opponent's cover, directly change the defense, prevent the block, all go up the line and squeeze, we don't need joint defense in this game, everyone must show their energy, and never let the opponent score easily! ”

Hearing the manager's advice, everyone nodded their heads, regardless of whether this defensive choice was correct or not, but what needed to be done tonight was to obey the tactical arrangement.

On the other side of the Mavericks, Coach Carlisle once again sent his own chicken soup for the soul:

"We've got the initiative, as long as we win at home tonight, the score will be 3-1, with two match points in hand, we will reach the finals, it will be a historic moment."

"For the first championship in team history, everyone has to fight, the Dallas fans are supporting us, we have to stick together, let's go!"

Coach Carlisle has successfully sparked the desire of veterans to win championships, and even old fritters like Kidd are irritated by the chicken soup for the soul, he is 38 years old, and if he misses this year's championship window, he may not have a chance to win the championship.

Heywood is 32 years old, Dirk Nowitzki, Sean Marion, Jason Terry, and Peja are all 33 years old.

For these veterans, tonight's game is extremely important, the longer the series drags on, the more unfavorable it will be for them, and for the championship, the old guys will have to fight hard tonight!

The referee motioned for the players from both sides to come to the center of the field, everyone greeted each other, everyone looked serious, and the DJ on the scene began to lead the home fans to shout:

“Let's go Mavs! Let's go Mavs! Let's go Mavs! ”

"Smack!"

With the blessing of the atmosphere of the game, Tyson Chandler easily jumped to win against Ibaka, and the Mavericks got the first wave of offensive possession, which made the Dallas fans cheer again.

The Mavericks' first offense was still a cross-cover from the baseline, allowing Nowitzki to come to the right block to receive the ball.

When changing defenses, Ibaka was very agile to squeeze past Chandler's delay, desperately chasing the defense, and at the moment when Nowitzki received the ball, Ibaka immediately lowered his defensive center of gravity, raised his right hand, and stared at the opponent.

Such an aggressive defense did not cause much interference to Nowitzki, after receiving the ball, he took a quick tentative step with his left foot, and after shaking, he raised the ball around, took a step with his left foot, and released the ball with his right hand, dribbling a big step towards the baseline.

With Ibaka's defense completely out of position, he made a step-back jumper that drifted to the right with a block.

"Huh!"

The signature Golden Rooster Independence easily scored the Mavericks' first goal after the opening, and the American Airlines Center was suddenly jubilant, and the fans in Dallas shouted happily.

Nowitzki's state made the Thunder team nervous, and they quickly opened the baseline ball, and after the turtle dribbled past half court, the Thunder team also played the same tactics as the Mavericks.

Li Ze made a cross cover with Perkins in the three-second zone, and then immediately came to the left blocking area to ask for the ball with his back.

DeSean Stevenson used his strength to eat, chased after the defense and desperately tried to interfere with Li Ze's catch in front of the half-circle, but Li Ze ignored the opponent's confrontation with the advantage of height and weight, and received the turtle pass steadily.

Kidd, who was on the line, went straight to Li Ze at the moment of the turtle's pass.

And Li Ze saw that the opponent once again took the defense of the bag, and the offensive choice was also very simple, not waiting for Kidd's defense to be in place, after receiving the ball with his back, he took his right foot as the axis and turned to the bottom line.

Facing DeSean Stevenson's defense, an exaggerated step-back jumper shot!

“OH! Kayce! Fade away! That's good! ”

Commentator Mike Brin saw Li Ze's wonderful step-back jumper and instantly raised his commentary volume, and Kidd saw Li Ze's choice of shot, and he also felt a little helpless in his heart, which was not reasonable at all

DeSean Stevenson was already numb, and he faintly felt that Li Ze's offense was more resolute, compared to the previous games, the first attack after tonight's opening was thrown directly against the defense, which made him feel huge defensive pressure in an instant.

Hearing the huge boos at the scene, Li Ze quickly retreated with an expressionless face after the goal, the big guys are all paralyzed, he will be ruthless to the end tonight!

With the same tactics, the core players on both sides used the same technical actions to score a goal each, and on the ESPN commentary bench, Jeff Van Gundy said with emotion:

"Kayce is only 20 years old, but the use of technology is not inferior to Nowitzki, who has played in the league for many years, and tonight can be regarded as a matchup between the old and new MVPs."

Jason Kidd took advantage of Tyson Chandler's pick-and-roll to shoot a cold arrow from outside the three-point line, resulting in a furious shot, and the long rebound fell into Nowitzki's hands.

"Squeak!"

When the referee's whistle blew, Nowitzki directly caused Perkins' foul, and less than a minute into the opening game, Perkins received his first foul, which made the champion center a little annoyed.

Seeing this, the head coach of Brooks on the sidelines immediately looked around the bench, and then gave Collison a look, indicating that he might play early.

Standing at the free throw line, Nowitzki simply adjusted his breathing, and then hit two free throws steadily, and the American Airlines Center Arena erupted in a huge cheer, and then immediately cheered for the home team's defense:

“Defense! Defense! Defense! ”

Marion continued to stalk Durant in this game, and the veteran also played with his life, in the first three games, he mainly cut off the ball and limited Durant on the defensive end, the task was very simple, but it was very suitable for the veteran.

Finally received the ball at the left elbow of the free throw line, and with Marion guarding his right hand, he was forced to stop the ball again with his left hand.

Durant didn't force the offense either, but took advantage of the situation to give the ball to Ibaka at the free throw line.

Then immediately moved to the right flank, and Li Ze pretended to ask for the ball with his back in the right blocking area, and then suddenly turned around, quickly slipped past the bottom line, and with the help of Perkins' cover, came to the left blocking area again.

The turtle in the bottom corner of the left quickly moved to the line, and at the same time, Ibaka immediately passed the ball, and the moment he received the pass, Deshawn Stevenson quickly rotated into place, seeing Li Ze shaking, the defensive center of gravity subconsciously moved forward.

Noticing Nowitzki's defensive movements, after a false shake, Li Ze dribbled vigorously with his left hand, dribbled a big step towards the baseline, and then twisted his body and forced a backward jump shot under the block of DeSean Stevenson.

"Huh!" Two look up and sigh!

The Dallas fans at the scene erupted in huge boos again, apparently Li Ze's performance reminded them of the scene of last year's playoffs.

DeSean Stevenson was thrown out of his temper, and although he blocked with all his might, it didn't make any difference, and Nowitzki immediately applauded everyone to stick to the defensive strategy, and he really wanted to win this game.

In the next few minutes, the Mavericks' offense was still efficient, and Nowitzki kept receiving the ball in two blocking positions, whether it was a hand-to-hand cover or an inside pass after a breakaway, which made the Thunder's defense difficult to handle.

Under the single-defense strategy, Ibaka was unable to limit the opponent at all, and this time the Mavericks attacked, Nowitzki was in the left blocking area and received a pass from Kidd.

After the triple threat, he once again stood up to Ibaka's defense and hit a step-back jumper.

The Dallas fans at the scene had just cheered for the goal, and Li Ze received the ball at the right blocking position, turned to the baseline direction, and scored a backward jumper that drifted to the right.

The cheers stopped abruptly, and attentive fans had already noticed that Li Ze was handling the ball faster and faster, and he was currently making all three shots.

This state of affairs has made them a little uneasy, but fortunately, Nowitzki has not missed a shot so far, so the two sides are still in a state of mutual competition.

By the time the game entered the official timeout, the score on the court was 16:14, and the Thunder led by two points, and Li Ze and Nowitzki also scored six points.

On the bench of the Thunder, everyone looked a lot more relaxed, compared with the previous games, the Thunder team has accelerated the speed of handling the ball, especially when Li Ze handles the ball, the huge containment force can always give teammates a chance to score easily.

"Pay attention to the foul control, don't let the opponent enter the penalty state too early, we must continue to speed up the pace of the game!"

The American Airlines Center arena was so noisy that Coach Brooks had to scream loudly to remind his players that only Perkins had been fouled once, which was good news for the Thunder.

After returning from the timeout, the Thunder took the lead in attacking, and Li Ze immediately felt the change in the Mavericks' defense.

Perhaps due to the home whistle, DeSean Stevenson moved more when defending in the low post, and all kinds of hidden tugging began to be used frequently.

Seeing that the referee did not blow the whistle, Li Ze, who had been pulling from the three-second zone to the right blocking zone, suddenly accelerated and quickly came to the right wing outside the three-point line.

After receiving a pass from Ibaka in the right elbow area, he immediately raised an eyebrow with Ibaka and signaled that he didn't need to cover, DeSean Stevenson saw Li Ze get the ball and didn't dare to stick too close, he knew Li Ze's breakthrough ability very well.

Nowitzki, who was on Ibaka's side, wanted to move over to the bag and let Li Ze play the ball in advance, but he didn't expect Li Ze, who had just received the ball, to rise directly from outside the three-point line.

And DeSean Stevenson, who was standing on the three-point line, didn't have time to react, and saw Li Ze's body twist slightly, and he made a dry jump shot.

“OH! My god! ”

“Tough shot! Kayce Hits the three! ”

There was still a small step away from the three-point line, and Li Ze's dry three-pointer directly made commentator Mike Brin scream.

The American Airlines Center arena fell silent for a moment, and then there were exclamations and boos from the scene, outrageous projections, which stunned the Mavericks fans.

Li Ze, who retreated, made a tactical gesture to his teammates, signaling that in the second half of the game, he would reduce the low-post receiving ball and play a few more outside cuts.

Coach Carlisle on the sidelines felt a little helpless, and Li Ze had almost no offensive dead corners on the court, which made the Mavericks very passive on the defensive end.

Once you receive the ball outside the three-point line, some hand movements depend on the referee's face.

The youngest MVP in history is also a league favorite, and if you use too many hands outside the three-point line, you will definitely be blown up, but if you don't have a strong defense, how to limit Li Ze's play?

The assistant coach also came to coach Carlisle and whispered constantly, reminding the coach to pay attention to the rotation, and in the second half of the game, the offensive efficiency of the two sides continued to decrease, and the pace of the game became faster and faster.

With 52 seconds left in the first quarter of the game, Li Ze was substituted, and Coach Brooks smiled and patted King's thigh on the shoulder, 5 of 6 in the single quarter, including 2 of 3 three-pointers, 12 points, 2 rebounds and 1 assist, which was perfect!

After Durant grabbed the backcourt rebound and scored two points in a crazy push, the first quarter of the game officially ended, and at 29:27, the Thunder managed to take a two-point lead.

"Ahh

Durant, who hit the whistle, first roared, and then hammered himself twice, releasing his emotions.

Compared with the previous games, he was in a resurgence in this game, 3 of 5 in the single quarter, 2 of 2 free throws, and scored 8 points efficiently.

"The first quarter of the game between the two sides was very exciting, with the Thunder scoring continuously, the Mavericks successfully withstood the pressure, Nowitzki made all 4 shots in a single quarter, scored 10 points, and it can be seen that he is still hot tonight."

Jeff Van Gundy once again praised the Mavericks' performance, while Mark Jackson was full of praise for Lee's performance:

"Kayce has been doing really well, constantly giving back the ball, and it looks like our young MVP is going to get into attacking mode this game!"

By the time the second quarter began, both sides rotated.

The Mavericks kept Nowitzki, once again partnering Barria and Terry in the backcourt, while Peja and Haywood also came off the bench and, as in previous games, the goal of this lineup is to score points at all costs.

On the Thunder's side, Li Ze and Ibaka are still on the court, and Daquinn Cook, Sofrosa, and Collison are on the court in rotation.

After the game began, the Thunder took the lead in attacking, and after Li Zeyun passed half court, he found that the Mavericks still used Barria to play against him, and as in previous games, Barria began to stalk Li Ze again.

In the face of such defense, the rest of his teammates sank to the baseline, and Ibaka quickly came to the outside of the three-point line to make a high block, and Nowitzki was forced to follow to help the defense.

Li Ze, who was holding the ball in his left hand outside the three-point line, suddenly lowered his body's center of gravity, shook his body to the left, and while striding with his right foot, he changed direction with his left hand at a very fast crotch and easily shook Barria away.

With the help of Ibaka's cover, briefly getting rid of defensive entanglements, Li Ze continued to accelerate the dribble, outside the three-point line, saw Nowitzki come out of a big delay, sent the ball forward with his right hand, and then pulled the ball sharply with his left hand, the fancy Sam Gold, but the effect was exceptional.

Nowitzki, who slid backwards, was staggered by Li Ze's movements, and he didn't have time to adjust the center of gravity of the defense, and finally could only watch Li Ze make a quick stop jump shot at the top of the arc.

“Open the three!”

“OH! What a play by Kayce! ”

The wonderful shaking made the commentator Mike Brin scream excitedly again, and such a three-point shot seemed outrageous to him.

Seeing Li Ze's calm retreat, Coach Carlisle next to him immediately reminded Barria loudly that the cover must be squeezed through, and immediately signaled Haywood to replace Nowitzki's defense.

The Mavericks attacked, perhaps trying to save face, and Nowitzki, who received the ball in the elbow area on the left side of the free throw line, first feigned a hand-to-hand pass to Jason Terry on the perimeter.

Then the left hand suddenly released the ball to accelerate, directly broke through Ibaka's defense, and made a difficult shot against Collison's defense!

"Squeak!"

"Huh!"

“Dirk puts it in! And a foul! ”

Seeing that Nowitzki had a chance to play 2+1, commentator Mike Brin yelled passionately again, and the Dallas fans at the scene also shouted.

And Nowitzki saw the ball roll into the basket, and immediately shook his fist and roared, celebrating passionately, and the super power forward also went crazy!

Taking advantage of Nowitzki's free throws, Li Ze gave Collison a thumbs up, which he counted as a foul on Ibaka's back, and Big Brother was still very aware of the situation on the court.

Noyski hit the free throw again steadily, quickly sent the baseline ball, Li Ze quickly dribbled across the halfcourt, still the same tactic, and Ibaka once again came to the outside of the three-point line to make a high block.

Baria stared at Li Ze's movements, and at the same time kept an eye on Ibaka's movements, at the moment when Ibaka's block was about to be in place.

Li Ze, who was holding the ball in his right hand outside the three-point line, suddenly raised the center of gravity of his body, and his right hand shook in confusion with his body in and out, and at the same time, he secretly hit Baria with his body.

Taking advantage of the moment when the opponent was slightly stunned, he quickly lowered the center of gravity of his body, changed direction under his right crotch, and then accelerated with all his strength with the ball in his left hand.

immediately came to the three-point line for a big delay, and at the moment when the two made contact, Li Ze quickly dribbled behind his left hand, and then exerted force with his feet, and retreated directly to the three-point line.

Barria, who flicked the ball and flew to the side, was under the gaze of Haywood, and Li Ze calmly adjusted outside the three-point line and made an easy jump shot.

“BANG!”

“It's good! Kayce Another three! ”

On the ESPN commentary bench, Mike Brin looked excited, and the superstars scored each other, which is the game he wanted to see, and Nowitzki saw that his teammates were a little frustrated, and immediately applauded passionately, indicating that this was a good defense.

There was jubilation on the bench of the Thunder team, and the tortoise and turtle who were framed in this game waved the towel frantically, constantly cheering for Li Ze.

The Mavericks' offense in the next round was also very tough, and it was the same tactic, Nowitzki came to the right elbow of the free throw line and completed a hand-to-hand pass with Jason Terry.

Li Ze squeezed through the cover for the first time with agility, and Jason Terry, who was holding the ball in his right hand, noticed that he did not get rid of Li Ze's defense, and went straight back to Nowitzki, who came to the three-point line.

Then he suddenly reversed, quickly moved towards the top of the arc, and after receiving the ball, Nowitzki first feigned a shot to attract Ibaka's defensive attention.

The moment Jason Terry came to the top of the arc, he passed the ball quickly, and the latter received the ball, did not make adjustments, and threw the ball away!

"Huh!" Three-point shot hollow into the net!

Hearing the loud cheers that erupted from the American Airlines Center Arena, Li Ze secretly cursed in his heart, the Mavericks' cover quality was much better than that of the Thunder, and his defense was just one step slower, only to be found by Jason Terry again

The game began to heat up at the beginning of the second quarter, after Li Ze hit two three-pointers in a row, the Mavericks changed their defensive strategy again, Li Ze just dribbled past half court, Jason Terry and Balla both pounced at the same time.

Daequinn Cook quickly came to the left wing outside the three-point line to receive the pass from Li Ze, and after receiving a pass from Li Ze, Nowitzki immediately raised his hands and stepped forward to delay, and then Jason Terry immediately returned to the defense.

At the moment when Jason Terry returned to defense, Li Ze at the top of the arc suddenly started and ran without the ball to the bottom left corner.

Barria was thrown away by Li Ze's sudden outburst, and when Li Ze received a pass in the bottom left corner, he took advantage of the situation, flew Barria again, and quickly jumped outside the three-point line.

“My god!”

“Kayce From Fowntown! Unbelievable! ”

The frantic projection, which made the commentator Mike Brin chant God, the Mavericks were unaffected in any way, and quickly sent out the baseline ball, and Barria blocked Nowitzki again after half court.

Getting rid of Daquin Cook's defense, he crossed the ball with his right hand and dribbled back to deceive Ibaka's defensive center of gravity and made a quick jumper from beyond the three-point line.

"Huh!" Three-pointers hollow into the net.

The crazy response ball completely ignited the American Airlines Center Arena, and the Dallas fans at the scene screamed, it was too hard!

After scoring the goal, Barria's expression was hideous, and he was almost broken by Li Ze, and throwing in this three-point shot can be regarded as releasing the pressure in his heart.

Li Ze didn't expect the Mavericks' three-point shooting state to be so good, let's hang up! At the same time, I was secretly ruthless in my heart:

"If you can't stand it, you have to top it!"

The two teams hit back-to-back three-pointers to make the game gradually crazy in the second quarter, and Coach Brooks also got back the main lineup early, and so did Coach Carlisle, and the two sides seemed to enter the decisive moment early.

Amid the frantic shouts of the Dallas fans at the scene, at the end of the second quarter, at 31:35, the Mavericks successfully overtook the score.

At 60:62, the Mavericks entered the second half with a two-point lead.

Li Ze made 5 of 6 in the second quarter, including 3 of 4 three-pointers, and scored 13 points, 2 rebounds and 2 assists again, scoring 25 points in the half, which was already very efficient.

But alas, the Mavericks also had a hang-up, Nowitzki was 8-of-9 in the half, 5-of-5 from the free-throw line, and also scored 21 points efficiently.

Such a half-game made the three people on the ESPN commentary seat very excited, what kind of shooting percentage is this? Li Ze only conceded two goals in the half, while Nowitzki missed one.

Crazy! Outrageous!

At halftime, the atmosphere in the American Airlines Center arena was still explosive, and Li Ze was so crazy that the team could still lead by two points, which made the Dallas fans on the scene happy!

By the start of the third quarter, something even more outrageous happened, perhaps thanks to the home whistle, Nowitzki made 13 free throws in the quarter, hitting them all!

At the same time, both Ibaka and Perkins received their fourth fouls, and the Thunder's interior was completely broken.

By the time the break came, Ibaka had already begun to doubt his life, Nowitzki scored 17 points on 2-of-3 shooting in the quarter, and the Mavericks scored 35 points again in this quarter!

In the case of the Mavericks' strict defense of three-point shooting, Li Ze made 3 of 5 in the single quarter and 4 of 4 free throws, scoring 10 points again, and Durant also scored 10 points, and the two kept the Thunder's basic game.

A large number of free throws made the game fragmented and seriously disrupted the offensive rhythm, and although the Thunder scored 31 points in the quarter, the Mavericks managed to extend the lead.

There was silence on the bench of the Thunder team at this time, and everyone thoroughly understood what it means to explode the penalty, 1 point of rain is really difficult to top, difficult to score, and when you look back, you will be easily free throws by the opponent, and the mentality is already the limit.

Li Ze took a big sip of water, wiped it on his face with a towel, and shouted loudly to his teammates:

"It's just a six-point difference, hold on to two rounds, two three-pointers and we'll equalize the score!" Shet! Verse 4: The other party can't continue to be so accurate! We will win tonight's game! ”

Durant, who was panting for breath, didn't want to talk anymore, he was tired and vomited in this game, so he could only nod silently, and the iron turtle applauded passionately to boost the morale of his teammates.

By the time the fourth quarter of the game began, the atmosphere in the American Airlines Center arena exploded more and more, and Cuban, the owner of the Mavericks, was already red with excitement, and victory was beckoning to him.

The Mavericks took the lead in attacking, and Nowitzki, who received the ball in the right blocking area, received a pass from Kidd, and after three threats, he threw a step-back jumper again.

"Bang!" It's hard to strike iron!

Perkins under the basket stuck Tyson Chandler stubbornly, and finally Ibaka successfully protected the backcourt rebound, and the Mavericks quickly retreated, and the turtle also accelerated directly after receiving the ball, chasing the ass to launch a conversion offense.

The players of both teams hula all dribbled across the half court, and the turtle was very fast, Li Ze just came to the left wing outside the three-point line, and immediately received the cross pass from the turtle.

DeSean Stevenson has been keeping an eye on Li Ze, and when he saw Li Ze receiving the ball outside the three-point line, he pounced on it as soon as possible and did not give any three-point shots.

Seeing the opponent's defense move, Li Ze, who was holding the ball in his left hand, instantly lowered his body's center of gravity, accelerated his breakthrough with the ball in his left hand, and in a very small range, he suddenly pulled back under his crotch during the march, and dribbled twice in his crotch on the spot.

Then he exerted his strength with his feet, stepped directly to a step away from the three-point line, and forced a jump shot against DeSean Stevenson's defense!

In the exclamation of the fans, the ball drew a huge arc in the air and finally fell into the basket with precision.

“BANG! BANG! ”

“Kayce From Downtown! OH my god! ”

Seeing Li Ze hit a long-distance three-pointer, commentator Mike Brin went completely crazy and shouted God several times in a row.

At this time, Li Ze had already scored 38 points, and the crazy offensive performances of the two teams almost blew up the Twitter server, and the media reporters on the scene all tweeted wildly.

"Fack! 3 points more! ”

After the goal, Li Ze didn't pretend to be paralyzed, scolded loudly, released his emotions, and then applauded passionately, signaling his teammates to continue to defend, and then quickly retreated.

There was a huge burst of noise at the American Airlines Center, and in the next round, Nowitzki hit another two-pointer to help stabilize the Mavericks.

The Turtle knew that the good brother was already in the rhythm, so the Thunder offense played a double screen, and there was no chance, giving the ball directly to Perkins in the elbow area on the left side of the free throw line.

Then immediately signaled Li Ze to run back to catch the ball, and after the two crossed the running position on the line, Li Ze received a pass from Perkins, and then took the ball and threw it!

At the top of the arc, he resisted DeSean Stevenson's block, twisted his body, and forced a long-range three-point jumper!

“OH! OH! ”

“ My god!”

The three-pointer was scored again, and the margin was narrowed to two points, and the commentator Mike Brin didn't want to say anything anymore, just screamed frantically.

After the goal, Li Ze's expression was a little hideous, and he shook his fist wildly and celebrated to the fullest!

Although I have entered the [Enter Rhythm] BUFF, this game is too difficult, so my expression is completely uncontrollable

The Mavericks are completely numb, this is still people?

The Thunder were stimulated by Li Ze's three-point shot, and under the frantic bite on the defensive end, Nowitzki failed to catch the ball, and Kidd was forced to defuse the bomb, and the result was another iron.

The long rebound ball was directly accepted by Li Ze, then he held the ball in his right hand and pushed forward frantically, DeSean Stephenson fought desperately on his side, and just wanted to make a tactical foul, but was suddenly dribbled by Li Ze's back and dangled directly to the ground.

The fans at the scene exclaimed, Li Ze rushed across the half court and came to the three-point line, Marion directly gave up Durant's defense and quickly pounced, but Li Ze calmly flew and converted three points to force a shot.

“BANG! BANG! ”

“ Open the fair! Kayce Another three! ”

Commentator Mike Brin is almost hoarse, it's crazy!

The Thunder overtook the score, the atmosphere on the bench was frantically celebrating, and the Dallas fans at the American Airlines Center Arena were completely dumbfounded.

The Mavericks, who were crazy in the first three quarters, were a little overwhelmed in the fourth quarter, and when Jason Terry hit the iron again, the Mavericks, who were physically exhausted, were slow to retreat, and the turtles seized the opportunity to switch offense and successfully scored two points.

The difference was three points in an instant, and although coach Carlisle called a timeout, the next game was the response time.

Nowitzki scored a two-point shot, and after Li Ze ran without the ball, he received the ball on the left flank and shook it, and responded with two long points.

Nowitzki hit a free throw, Li Ze was on the right wing outside the three-point line, and after stepping down on the spot twice, he stepped up against the defense and scored the ball with a step-down jumper again!

Tyson Chandler hit the basket and the Thunder transitioned offense.

Three-line fast attack, Durant who holds the ball in the middle breaks through the ball, Li Ze does not make adjustments after receiving the ball, and hits a long-distance three-point shot on the left wing outside the three-point line!

"Roar!!"

Li Ze, who hit a three-point shot, began to beat his chest and roared, just to shoot you!

On the bench of the Thunder team, everyone was shouting wildly, this is the strength of Kim's thighs.

DeSean Stevenson was completely stunned, and coach Carlisle called a timeout again, and the margin was already five points.

With 7:06 left in the fourth quarter, Jason Terry came off the bench to replace DeSean Stevenson, who doubted his life, and the Mavericks fought completely!

In the next game, the score difference was always pulled back and forth by 5 points, and the iron batch of turtles and turtles also found their touch again, and the two sides entered the stage of responding to the ball.

The American Airlines Center arena gradually quieted down, and Cuban couldn't sit still at all, and although the Mavericks' offense was still efficient, the margin couldn't be narrowed.

When Cuban saw Li Ze hit a step-back jumper in front of him against the defense of Terry and Kidd, he completely broke the defense, his face turned red with anger, and he scolded fiercely:

"Fack! Shit shots! ”

In the second half of the game, Perkins left the court with six fouls, but the Thunder, who were completely crazy, couldn't stop it.

Kidd Sr.'s defensive footsteps couldn't keep up, and the continuous onslaught of the physical monster turtle turtle made Tyson Chandler leave the court with the same six fouls, and Heywood was forced to rotate.

"God! It was a crazy game, both sides played the ultimate attack! ”

Seeing that the Thunder team has been maintaining the lead, Jeff Van Gundy also adjusted his breathing and said in an excited tone.

With 3:06 left in the game, the difference was not narrowed, and Coach Carlisle replaced Barria directly and took Marion.

The three guards fought hard to attack, but the defense declined, and the Thunder were always able to respond from the outside, and they were alive in the face of small guard Durant

With 48 seconds left in the game, the Thunder still held a five-point lead and the Mavericks used the last timeout.

Kidd served in the frontcourt, Jason Terry used the cover to receive a pass from outside the three-point line, and just wanted to use Nowitzki's cover to break through on the right side.

However, his physical fitness declined, his action rate slowed down, and he was successfully predicted by Li Ze, and he cut the ball accurately with his left hand.

"Smack!"

The moment the ball was dropped, the American Airlines Center Arena suddenly became quiet, Li Ze stabbed with his left hand, and then grabbed the ball with his right hand with one hand, Jason Terry turned around and pounced, and Li Ze, who controlled the ball, threw the ball directly to the front court with his right hand.

The turtle that hit the chicken blood rushed forward with a roar, and after getting the ball, he continued to accelerate in a straight line, 1 to 0 in the front court, and a one-handed tomahawk-style violent buckle!

"Boom!"

The slam dunk was tortoise roaring passionately, the towel on the Thunder's bench had been thrown off, and Perkins was even more excited and almost rushed straight into the court.

“It's over! My god! ”

The Mavericks ran out of timeouts, and with the Thunder leading by seven points with 41 seconds left on the game clock, Mike Brin in the commentary box shouted at the point.

When Barria's long-range shot hit the iron again, the game was completely over, with the last 20 seconds left, the turtle dribbled past half court, the Thunder team stopped attacking, and the Brooks coach on the sidelines couldn't help but wave his fists in celebration, this game was too critical.

"Buzz!"

When the final hum sounded, the Mavericks fans in the American Airlines Center arena were all dejected, and they were only one quarter away from victory.

In the end, at 132:125, the Thunder team successfully reversed the game with Li Ze's crazy performance in the fourth quarter and tied the score at 2:2!

Seeing that everyone on the Thunder bench rushed into the court and celebrated wildly, the corners of Cuban's mouth twitched under the basket, and he directly took off the cheering T-shirt on his body, fell on the floor, and scolded again:

"Shet!"

And the excited Li Ze was celebrating with his teammates at this time, and after making a set of bells and whistles with Turtle Turtle and Durant, Li Ze hugged the atmosphere group on the bench.

"Oh!"

Li Ze raised his hands again and screamed happily, and only after his emotions were completely released did he shake hands with everyone in the Mavericks who doubted his life.

The audience at the American Airlines Center arena still did not leave the arena, and when they saw the Thunder trio hooking their shoulders and running back to the players' tunnel, they couldn't help but burst into a huge boo.

In this game, Li Ze's performance completely broke the defense of Mavericks fans

"Oh God! Kayce scored 19 points on 7-of-7 shooting and 5-of-5 three-pointers in the fourth quarter! The Thunder team 41:28 in a single quarter, which is crazy! ”

On ESPN's commentary seat, Mike Brin seemed to be still reminiscing about Li Ze's performance, and the God in his mouth kept screaming.

'Coach Carlisle paid the price for his selection, he should have stuck with the starting line-up, but in the end he opted for a back three.

"Novis was 12-of-15 from the field, 24-of-24 from the free-throw line, and had 48 points, 6 rebounds, 4 assists, 2 blocks and 2 turnovers.

As soon as Jeff Van Gundy's words fell, Mark Jackson next to him put on an expression of disbelief and said in an exaggerated tone:

"That's because Kayce is even better on the Thunder! 20-of-24, including 10-of-12 three-pointers, 4-of-4 free throws, 54 points, 7 rebounds, 4 assists and 1 steal! ”

"Oh my God, it's crazy that such a statistic would be in the Western Conference Finals!"

ESPN's post-match commentary continues, but Amerika's social media has been blown up by Li Ze.

Facebook, Twitter, Reddit, INS, all the fans are talking about this game like crazy, and it is all too rare to have two super scorers in one game.

Many fans who are keen on data have turned up various records and began to tout Li Ze fanciously:

10 three-pointers allowed Li Ze to break the single-game three-point shooting record in the playoffs and become the first in history.

The 54 points in a single game also allowed Li Ze to successfully enter the single-game scoring record in the playoffs, tied for eighth with the super scorers in history.

In fact, there are only four people in front of Li Ze:

"Michael Jordan's 63 points in a single game, Charles Barkley's 56 points in a single game, Michael Jordan's 56 points in a single game, Allen Iverson's 55 points in a single game, and Michael Jordan's 55 points in three games."

Michael Jordan dominated the playoff single-game scoring record and crushed everyone.

However, considering the shooting percentage, only Srippo Floyd was 18 of 26 that year, and his 51 points were close to Li Ze's.

Everyone else has a high score in exchange for a large number of shots, and no one can compare with Li Ze in this regard!

On the other side of the ocean, at the end of the half, the Tiger Pounce Forum had collapsed for 10 minutes, and when the Thunder team really reversed the game, fans flocked to the forum with excitement, and then collapsed for another 20 minutes.

When fans saw the Thunder's post-game news post, the game was half an hour over, but everyone was still enthusiastic:

"It's so awesome! Look on your knees! It's all winning! Nowitzki is superb, hitting all 24 free throws! ”

"The 4th quarter game was so exciting, what kind of scoring explosion is this! 19 points in a single quarter, all shots, I can't even play such data in 2K! ”

"It's really a pity for the Mavericks, if Carlisle doesn't play the 3 guards, the result is really hard to say, or Li Ze is too good X! The long-range three-pointer stunned the opponent. ”

"Exciting, Tianwang Mountain is back in Russia, Li Zeniu X! Thunder Championship! ”

The fancy touting of the fans, Li Ze didn't have the heart to watch it, after the high-intensity game, his spirit was extremely tired, in short: his body seemed to be hollowed out.

When he returned to the hotel room, Li Ze took a shower and fell directly on the big bed, and the series score was 2:2, which made him very happy:

"The corrective power of history is no match for the little butterfly that flutters its wings."
