【210】 Thrilling 7.2 seconds, the most amazing kill in FIBA history!
The timeout came back and the players from both teams returned to the game.
The Dream Seven team served and attacked, seeing the three highs piled up around the penalty area, under the FIBA rule of not defending for three seconds, which obviously curbed the breakthrough score of the Mi Guo team.
As a result, Ray Allen's outside three-pointers are once again the No. 1 offensive option.
Wade gave the ball to Anthony in the high post, at which point Bosh mentioned that the outside line made a solid cover for Ray Allen, completely delaying Sun Yue, who was chasing the defense.
Ray Allen, who ran to the left outside position, also happened to receive Anthony's high post response ball, and in the face of Da Yao, who was obviously slow to make up the defense, he decisively started to shoot again.
"Bang dang!"
The basketball swung around the hoop for a few laps before finally coming out.
At the critical moment, Ray Allen's three-point shot was obviously a little bit of luck.
Although he has hit 6 three-pointers tonight and hit 20+ efficiently, he missed two consecutive three-pointers in the last minute of the final quarter.
This also made Stan Van Gundy, who was standing on the sidelines, frown slightly.
It seems that compared with Lin Fei, Ray Allen has a significant gap in both running and receiving the ball and shooting the crosshair.
The off-ball cover tactics originally arranged for Lin Fei during the Heat period require very accurate spatial awareness and projection ability.
Ordinary goalscorers simply can't fully match such off-the-ball tactics, and top scorers like Ray Allen can only barely match them.
"Smack!"
The Celestial Empire men's basketball team got another chance at the height of the basket, although Da Yao was brought to the three-point line, but roughly with the advantage of height and arm span, he gritted his teeth against James and grabbed this key defensive rebound.
For the 2+1 that was played by James before, he has been looking for opportunities to make up for his mistakes.
The ball was quickly given to Lin Fei, who ran back to the frontcourt, and after Lin Fei received the ball, he changed direction by dribbling between the lines, shaking off Wade's save and rushing straight to the frontcourt.
"Whoosh!"
Ray Allen quickly returned to the defense on the other side to catch up, and Lin Fei stepped on the middle line and then made a bad luck, and changed direction again to shake off Junzi Lei.
"Whoosh!"
Immediately followed by James, he also overtook the meteor corner in stride, intercepting Lin Fei's breakthrough line outside the three-point line on the right side.
Taking advantage of the inertia of James's sprint, Lin Feijin stopped and retreated from his crotch, widening the distance of more than two meters from James, and seeing Wade and Ray Allen on the left, they also pounced at the same time.
Looking up at the basket 9 meters away from the oblique stab, without hesitation, he jumped up and shot again.
"Huh!"
The thirteenth.
Although Ray Allen and Wade, who flew up, both turned sideways to avoid hitting Lin Fei, Lin Fei still fell to the ground during the shooting process, and the actor was full of style.
"Beep!"
The Asian referee was aware of the whistle and gave the foul to Wade.
Goal plus penalty 3+1.
After a moment of silence, the entire Saitama Super Arena erupted in deafening screams of cheer.
Lin Fei, who fell to the ground, gritted his teeth and turned over and sat up, slammed his fist on the court floor, and roared at Wade and James in front of him:
"Want to win? It's not as simple as TMD! ”
Sun Yue was the first to catch up, and hurriedly pulled Lin Fei away, and Da Yao, Roughly and Ah Lian also rushed up to bump shoulders with Lin Fei to celebrate.
On the sidelines, the main Fangyu, Liu Wei, Du Feng and Li Nan on the bench of the Tianchao men's basketball team also jumped up excitedly, shouting and waving towels, with a magnificent momentum.
6 points behind in the last 1 minute, Lin Fei's 3+1 in this fast break can be described as invaluable.
"OMG, Lin's fast-break three-point is crazy, he is a one-on-three, and he has dribbled past Wade, Ray Allen and James in a row!"
"It only took 4 seconds for the ball to go from counterattack to three-point shot, am I really not dreaming? Is there such a crazy goal in the world? ”
"With Lin's free throw shooting rate, this 4-point shot must be stable, and this point difference was directly chased to two points, it seems that Mengqi is going to panic!"
"The incomparable basketball genius, Tainyma is handsome, Lin is the combined PLUS version of Rukawa Kaede and Mitsui Shou!"
"This game is too exciting to watch, if Lin Fei really leads the Celestial Empire men's basketball team to reverse the United States Dream Seven to win the championship, this must be celebrated, see you tonight!"
“MVP,MVP,MVP,MVP……”
In the cheers of the fans, Lin Fei did not pay attention to his good friend Wade questioning his fake fall, but calmly and confidently walked to the free throw line and easily hit the free throw.
"Huh!"
With Lin Fei's success in scoring 4 points, his personal score tonight has officially reached 50 points.
Celestial Empire (95) :(97) rice country.
On the timer, there were 0 minutes and 39 seconds left in the final quarter.
"Oh my God, Lin Fei has scored 50 points tonight, which is not only the highest score in a single game in the history of the Celestial Empire men's basketball team in the World Championships and the Olympic Games, but also the second Mr. 50 points in a single game in FIBA history!"
"He is the first player in FIBA history to be able to hit 50+10 in a single game!"
"No matter whether the Celestial Empire men's basketball team can reverse the game and win the championship tonight, the name Lin Fei will be famous all over the world!"
"In my opinion, there is no suspense about the final MVP of this Island Country World Championships, it is none other than Lin Fei!"
"With 13 three-pointers in a single game, Lin Fei has refreshed the FIBA single-game personal three-point record to a height that others can't reach!"
In the live broadcast room of the five sets of the Celestial Empire, Director Zhang and the host Yu Jia were impassioned, with passion from the heart, and their high-pitched voices trembled.
"The last 39 seconds are only 2 points behind, believe in miracles, believe in Lin Fei, believe in the Celestial Empire men's basketball team!"
With both teams running out of timeouts, the final 39 seconds of the game will be very tight.
Tonight, facing Wade, who Lin Fei got 16 points, 5 assists, 4 rebounds, 1 steal and 1 block, in the case of all the soldiers in Mengqi and being taken special care by Lin Fei,
It is already very good to have this performance, and it also proves that he is indeed the strongest existence in this Dream Seven camp.
But compared with Lin Fei's 50+10, Wade is still significantly worse than eighteen streets.
At the critical moment, with the anger and unwillingness to cheat and foul after being shaken off by the fast attack, as well as the stubbornness and self-confidence of never admitting defeat on the field,
Wade came to the offensive end with the ball, faced Lin Fei with the dribble to press the time, and suddenly accelerated by blocking and dismantling to change to the strong basket, and the United Arab Emirates, who was assisting in the defense, tilted his body and threw the ball at an extreme angle.
The UAE raised his arms high, but could not stop the basketball from flying past him to the basket.
"Bang!"
At the same time that Wade's body fell heavily on the floor, the basketball on the basket also fell into the net after a few bumps in succession.
"Huh!"
Wade hit a two-point shot and 23 seconds of offensive time.
Celestial Empire (95) :(99) Rice Kingdom.
With a difference of 4 points, there was only 0 minutes and 16 seconds left on the timer.
The fans at the scene didn't have time to think much about it in the suffocating atmosphere of the game, because the Celestial Empire men's basketball team didn't have any waiting, and took advantage of the moment when the United States team scored laxly, and quickly served the bottom line and attacked quickly.
"Whoosh!"
Continuously dribbling to get rid of the pressing of Ray Allen and Wade, Lin Fei saw that Da Yao and Roughly had quickly settled in the front penalty area, so he did not hesitate, and jumped with double retreat.
Facing Wade's pounce, he leaned back slightly, and raised the arc lightning shot.
Although Lin Fei's ball avoided Wade's block, the difficulty coefficient was too high, and the basketball crossed the air and fell heavily on the basket.
"Bang dang!"
Because of the angle and strength problems, this rebound did not bounce long, and Da Yao under the basket roared against Bosh, jumped up and grabbed the basketball, and scored directly with a dunk.
"Boom!"
Celestial Empire (97) :(99) Rice Country.
With a difference of two points, the time on the timer reached the last 8.2 seconds.
The ball is in the hands of the United States team, and the Celestial Empire men's basketball team can only adopt foul tactics.
Lin Fei chased after Wade, Sun Yue gritted his teeth and followed Ray Allen, although his physical strength was overdrawn, Sun Yue knew the mission he was shouldering at this time,
It was the fighting spirit of Lin Fei and Da Yao that sublimated Sun Yue, who participated in the World Championships for the first time.
The game is not over yet, and even if it is still the last second, we must not let up.
Seeing that it was difficult for the two guards to receive the ball, in order to avoid overtime on the serve, Bosh on the baseline gave the ball to the nearby James at will.
And this move fell into the trap of the Celestial Empire men's basketball team.
There was basically no hesitation, and at the moment when James got the ball, he hurriedly slapped his big hand on the opponent's arm.
"Beep!"
Only one second has elapsed on the timer, leaving the last 7.2 seconds.
James walked to the free throw line and made two extra free throws.
Stan Van Gundy, the head coach of the United States Dream Seven who was standing on the sidelines, and several assistant coaches, suddenly frowned, realizing the seriousness of the situation.
James, this guy, only shot 51% of the free throws in this World Championship.
Tonight alone, James' free throws were even more excessive, only 2 of 5 shots, and the free throw shooting rate was pitiful to 40%.
Judging from the full-court tight defense of the Celestial Empire men's basketball team just now, they obviously induced Mengqi to pass the baseline ball to James, and then quickly fouled James and sent James to the free throw line.
Of course, this is only the best way in a passive situation, as long as James can hit one of the two free throws, the United States team will lead by 3 points in the last 7 seconds, which can basically be conducive to being invincible.
However, in Stan Van Gundy's heart, an ominous premonition germinated.
Wade and Anthony both walked up and patted James on the shoulder, telling him not to be nervous and relax.
The players on Dream Seven's side prayed that James would hit at least one of the two free throws, and it would be the best if he hit all of them.
And the players on the side of the Celestial Empire men's basketball team, including Lin Fei and Da Yao on the court, Liu Wei, Zhu Fangyu, Du Feng, Li Nan and others on the bench on the sidelines, naturally prayed for James to make two free throws.
The suffocating atmosphere lingered in every corner of the arena, and the beautiful fans of the island nation and several NBA stars sitting in the front row were also watching James' key free throws.
Because FIBA's free throw time is only 5 seconds, the tight time limit obviously affects James' poor free throw feel in the tense atmosphere.
"Bang dang!"
The basketball hit the iron and popped up, and James missed the first free throw.
The scene resounded with cheers, obviously the fans who were looking forward to the reversal of the Celestial Empire men's basketball team.
Even if James hit the second free throw, the Tianchao men's basketball team still had a chance to help the team tie the score and drag it into overtime in the last 7 seconds through Lin Fei's deadly three-point shot.
All four teammates rushed up to high-five James, encouraging him to relax and not be nervous.
James is not a rookie after all, he is definitely not nervous, but the free throw feels really too cold.
In the second free throw, James was thinking about whether to deliberately lose the free throw, and then try to make the rebound bounce in a direction that is conducive to the grabbing of his teammates.
But James quickly dismissed the idea, and the success rate of doing so was harder for him than hitting the free-throw line.
James made a nervous second throw, and the basketball slashed through the air in a small arc, taking away everyone's eyes from everyone on the court.
"Bang dang!"
The ball bounced off the side of the basket and after two bumps, it finally jumped out.
The rebounders of both teams in the box were already ready to go, and several interior players jumped up at the same time to compete for rebounds.
"Smack!"
Da Yao picked the basketball out of Bosh first, and seeing that the ball was about to fall into Anthony's hands, he took a step away and roughly relied on his height and arm length to pick the basketball out again to the free throw line.
At the moment when James was about to step forward to grab the ball, the United Arab Emirates, who rushed up in the oblique stab, jumped up directly without hesitation, and seemed to be red-eyed under his youthful vigor.
Like a beast that flew up towards its prey, it grabbed the basketball in front of James in the air, and then quickly passed towards Lin Fei on the outside.
"Bang!"
The moment the ball in Ah Lian's hand was passed, he also smashed his whole body to the floor, because he knew that time was running out, so the pass was obviously too hasty.
In the final moments of such a race against time, it is always difficult for young players to make the most rational and correct choices.
What's more, the current situation itself is completely unfavorable to the Celestial Empire men's basketball team.
Although the UAE took the risk of passing, Lin Fei also shook off Wade on the left side and prepared to catch the ball.
But Wade still predicted the correct position of Lin Fei's catch, turned around and jumped up, attacked with a long arm, and intercepted the ball fiercely in the moment before Lin Fei received the ball.
Wade's save was also lifeless, but his big hand didn't completely intercept the basketball, but let the ball change direction and fly out of bounds.
"Whoosh!"
Say it's too late, then it's too fast.
Seeing the ball change direction from his eyes and fly out of bounds, Lin Fei did not hesitate, subconsciously took a step suddenly, flew up and pounced towards the basketball.
At the last moment, Lin Fei grabbed the basketball with his big hand, and threw the ball back into the court the moment his body fell into the front row of the audience outside the bounds.
"Bang!"
In the loud noise, Lin Fei's whole person fell heavily on the billboard, and the three beautiful fans of the island country in the first row behind the billboard were also impartial and were smashed by Lin Fei.
All this happened in an instant, the three of UAE, Wade and Lin Fei rushed to scramble at the same time, and the backcourt of the entire Celestial Empire men's basketball team became chaotic, and Wade and UAE still fell to the floor.
The basketball that was rescued by Lin Fei happened to be roughly obtained, and the time on the timer at this time was only 3.5 seconds left before the end of the game.
Under James's pressing, it was generally difficult for the center of gravity to dribble and sprint, and Sun Yue, near the middle line, shook off Ray Allen and ran back, and hurriedly waved his hand to ask for the ball.
Roughly quickly gave the ball to Sun Yue in the LOGO area, and at this time, Ray Allen's pressing and blocking was also very fierce, so that Sun Yue had no chance to break through and shoot at all.
Seeing that the time on the timer had reached the last 2 seconds, the young Sun Yue, under the entanglement of Ray Allen, no longer knew what to do, so he forced a three-point shot in the middle circle, and the probability of hitting was almost zero.
But Sun Yue knew that he and the Celestial Empire men's basketball team had no other opportunities.
Younas, the coach of the men's basketball team of the Celestial Empire, who was standing on the sidelines, jumped to his feet in a hurry and roared angrily for Sun Yue to shoot quickly.
At the moment when Sun Yue was sideways against Ray Allen, leaning over and jumping up to make a strong throw,
A figure suddenly jumped out from the smashed billboard outside the boundary, with clear blood stains on his forehead, and ran quickly into the arena with oblique stabs, waving at Sun Yue for the ball.
"Sun Yue, here! Give me the damn balls! ”
Sun Yue trembled, he didn't even have time to think, and directly passed the ball to the figure wearing the No. 9 red jersey.
Lin Fei received the ball in half a step on the right sideline near the midline at this time, facing the basket 14 meters away from the diagonal stab, even though the blood flowing from his forehead fell into his eyes and blurred his vision.
But still without any hesitation, he jumped up, and quickly threw the basketball in his hand completely by feeling and body memory.
At the moment when the basketball left his hand, the red light on the tempered rebound and timer also lit up, and the game was over.
No one would have thought that Sun Yue would be able to find a passer at the last second of the game, and no one would have thought that Lin Fei, who had broken his forehead in order to save the ball, would be able to rush out from behind the smashed billboard at the last moment.
Therefore, Lin Fei's extreme shot this time was not disturbed or hindered in any way, but the blood dripping into his eyes blurred his vision.
The basketball speeding in the void seemed to turn into a shooting star, and every fan in the entire Saitama Super Arena,
Every player on the two teams on the court, James who was entangled with each other in the backcourt and roughly, Wade and UAE who quickly got up from the ground in pain,
and Da Yao, who collided with Bosh who was close to him in the fast sprint, and Sun Yue and Ray Allen near the LOGO in the middle circle.
Everyone's eyes looked up at the basketball speeding in the void at the same time, and the basketball seemed to fly from the island country to the Celestial Empire, and from the Celestial Empire to the rice country.
"Boom!"
When the basketball smashed into the inside of the basket and bounced into the net, the whole world seemed to become quiet at this moment.
The referee's eyes widened in shock, and after a moment of stunnedness, he blew the whistle and raised his hand to signal that Lin Fei's three-point goal was valid.
Celestial Empire (100) :(99) Rice Kingdom.
The game was over, and a shrill beep rang out.
Lin Fei also breathed a sigh of relief, and lay directly on the floor tired.
When they reacted quickly, Sun Yue, Da Yao, Roughly and Ah Lian all jumped up frantically, raised their hands and rushed towards Lin Fei.
"Win, Lin Fei, we won!"
"Lore, Lin Fei, we are the champions!"
Liu Wei, Li Nan, Zhu Fangyu, Du Feng and others on the bench of the Celestial Empire men's basketball team also shouted and rushed to the court.
Da Yao and the United Arab Emirates directly lifted Lin Fei, who was lying on the ground, and threw it high into the sky......
The entire Saitama Super Arena exploded, and the 20,000 fans inside the stadium and the more than 30,000 fans outside the stadium all screamed and cheered wildly at this moment.
Lin Fei's supernatural lore is destined to become the most classic memory of this stadium.
There is no doubt that it will also be the most classic three-point stunner in the entire history of FIBA.
James, Wade and Ray Allen all rushed towards the referee, saying that Lin Fei's three-point shot had timed out and asked to watch the video back.
The vice president of FIBA in front of the technical desk got up with a smile and spread his hands, and said loudly to the players and head coach of the United States team:
"I'm so sorry, the game is over, no one wants to change this crazy result again!"
