After the timeout, the players of both teams returned to the field, and the atmosphere began to solidify.

These last twenty seconds will directly determine the final winner after this battle of dragons and tigers.

The Suns served in the midcourt, and after Nash received the pass from his teammates, he did not rush to organize the offense, but stood at the top of the three-point line, quietly waiting for all his teammates to settle down.

He's going to compress the game time to the limit and try to give the Mavericks less time to counterattack.

The 24-second offensive clock passed quickly, and at the same time, the Suns players on the court began to move as the clock passed.

At this time, the Suns all five players on the court can shoot three-pointers, so they are all on the outside.

At this move, the whole stadium seemed to be chaotic, and there were running players everywhere, which made people overwhelmed.

But there are still many people who find the most eye-catching and eye-catching figure in the chaotic crowd - Wang Chao, who has a yellow skin color that is completely different from other players on the field!

Wang Chao was also running, and behind him was Josh, who was in hot pursuit. Howard.

Dior, who was passing by Wang Chao, suddenly turned sideways to block Howard, who reacted quickly and immediately dodged the block and was about to chase after him again, but it was another Suns player in front of him, Bell.

Double pick-and-roll cover!

This scene made the hearts of all the members of the Mavericks team hang.

Mavericks head coach Avery Avery . Johnson stood on the sidelines and almost jumped up, shouting at the court: "Hurry up! ”

Terry, who was responsible for defending Bale, immediately chased in the direction of Wang Chao, Terry's reaction speed was quite fast, and very flexible, when Wang Chao ran outside the three-point line and received a pass from Nash, Terry had rushed to Wang Chao, but when standing in front of Wang Chao, everyone realized that this was Terry, Jason. Terry!

There is no doubt about Terry's scoring ability, and at the peak of his career, he can contribute 19.7 points and 4.9 assists per game, which is an absolute strongman.

But his defensive ability ...... It's not that Terry's defense is very poor, it's just that he is 1.88 meters tall, and he mainly plays the position of scoring guard, and Terry basically faces players who are much taller than him, and it is difficult to do anything efficient defensively.

At this time, he was facing Wang Chao, who was 2.06 meters tall.

At this moment, Wang Chao didn't even have the idea of glancing at Terry, directly ignored his existence, jumped on the spot and aimed at the basket, and then threw the basketball in his hand in the direction of the basket.

The 1.88-meter Terry tried his best to jump and raise his hand to try to interfere with Wang Chao, but his outstretched arm could only barely reach the position of Wang Chao's nose, which was not an effective defense at all.

"It's done!"

This scene made D'Antoni on the sidelines happy.

As he thought, although the Mavericks attach great importance to Wang Chao's three-point threat, they also dare not let go of any player on the Suns court.

That's why he arranged for Bell to give Wang Chao a second block, the purpose of which was to go to Terry.

Terry was not able to make any impact on Wang Chao's shooting, and the basketball hit steadily without any suspense.

118:117！ The Suns managed to overtake by one point! There are 4 seconds left until the end of the game.

The Mavericks immediately called out their last timeout to set up the final attack.

Although it is only 4 seconds, it is still very operable, as long as you can hit a shot steadily, you can kill the game.

On the Suns' side, after the timeout, the first thing D'Antoni did was to swap Nash and Wang Chao off the court.

The Suns are not a team that is good at defense, and in this last and most critical defense, they naturally can't let too many defensive black holes stay on the court.

Nash and Wang Chao are the two biggest defensive black holes in the Suns' roster right now, and it's dangerous to keep them on the court.

Therefore, D'Antoni decisively replaced both of them and replaced Barbosa and Thiem. Thomas.

In this way, Wang Chao and Nash sat on the sidelines and watched the last 4 seconds.

The Suns did a very good job defensively, at least for the moment, as the Mavericks nearly failed to get the ball out under pressure and finally barely sent the ball to Harris, who forced a shot from 20 feet from the basket, missed the basketball frame, and the whistle blew at the end of the game.

After a thrilling game, the Suns finally defeated the Mavericks 118-117 to win the most critical battle of Tianwang Mountain, turning the overall score to 3:2 and taking the match point one step ahead of the Mavericks.

Nowitzki didn't even have a chance to receive the ball in the final attack, and four seconds of attacking time was not enough for Harris to pick up the ball and then look for the driver's position to pass.

The poor driver scored 52 points, 12 rebounds and 3 assists, but still couldn't help the team win the game.

On the Suns' side, Wang Chao was undoubtedly the biggest contributor to the victory of the game, shooting 11 of 20 three-pointers in the game, scoring 33 points, second only to Nowitzki in the whole game, and his 55% three-point shooting rate was even comparable to Nowitzki's overall shooting percentage.

In this game, Wang Chao refreshed the number of three-point shots in a single playoff game held by himself, and improved the record from 10 to 11 goals.

And it's often easiest to raise awareness by stepping up in this most critical battle.

This can be seen in the stats of the rest of the Suns' players.

In addition to Wang's 33 points, the Suns' highest scoring was Marion's 24 points and 10 rebounds, followed by Nash's 20 points, 6 rebounds and 11 assists, followed by Dio's 16 points and 9 rebounds......

Wang Chao, who looked the weakest in the starters, became the thickest thigh of the Suns at critical moments.

After the game, Mavericks head coach Avery Brown. Johnson made it clear that they were not able to limit Wang's three-point shooting well, which was the main reason why the team ultimately fell short and lost the game.

"Wang Chao's three-point shot has incredible magic, very lethal, we know this, but we have not been able to successfully limit his shooting on the defensive end, if we continue to do this in the next game, I am afraid that the ticket to the finals will really leave us."

The Mavericks' forward who is responsible for guarding Wang Chao's Josh. Howard was also speechless in an interview.

"That guy is like a tireless running machine, he never stops in my memory, I can keep up with it in the first half, but in the second half, it's a bit of a stretch to keep up with him after a certain amount of physical exertion." Still, Howard made a promise. "In the next game, I will do a good job in the distribution of physical fitness, strive to follow Wang Chao to the greatest extent, and not give him such a large number of opportunities to shoot three points."
