“Now! Let’s kill!”
The Lakers had jumped off the bench and they started celebrating the victory.
However, in the next second, the referee made a time-out gesture. The referee thought that the game was not over. They had to determine whether it was a lore or a quasi lore. They had to determine when the ball entered the basket. At that time, whether the time has really run out.
The referees gathered around the small screen and watched the video carefully, but the scene was silent. At the scene, in front of the TV, countless people were waiting for the referee’s final sentence!
The referee is still confirming and negotiating, and the broadcaster has given a slow motion replay of the goal just now.
“It seems that the ball came first!”
“Yes, there should still be time at the moment of scoring.”
“I will return to the table, I will definitely return to the table, and here is the home of the Spurs, so I will definitely return to the table, the Spurs have a chance!”
Fans on the scene also saw a slow-motion replay on the big screen, and this feeling of escape made them instantly boil.
The return to the table is very certain. The three referees have already reached a consensus, but the key is how much time should be given to the Spurs.
0.2 seconds? 0.3 seconds? 0.4 seconds? What is certain is that it is definitely less than 1 second, not even 0.5 seconds.
The referee seemed extremely cautious. This was the seventh game in the series, and it was also the goal scored at the last moment of the game. It is also related to the first ever 0-3 big turn-off. The slobber of public opinion can drown these referees, so every 0.1 seconds, the referee will be careful.
Finally, the referee gave a conclusion.
“0.4 seconds! The referee returned to the watch for 0.4 seconds! From the video, it was about this time when the ball was scored. This time the referee’s penalty was still very fair.” The commentator said.
“0.4 seconds, it was 0.4 seconds! Did you forget that the 2004 Western Conference semi-final was also the Lakers vs. Spurs, and that time was also 0.4 seconds! The history was surprisingly similar, but this time it was the Spurs. Hold the last 0.4 seconds!” The guest beside said suddenly.
Many young fans may have just heard about it from the mouth of their predecessors, and those older fans recalled the scene.
In the 2004 Western Conference semifinals, the Lakers’ F4 combination was highly anticipated. In the Western Conference semifinals, they met the Spurs who won the championship last year. In the fifth game of the two sides, the battle of Tianwang Mountain is still left until the end of the game. At 11.5 seconds, Bryant hit a quasi lore and the Lakers led 72 to 71. The Spurs’ attack was blocked, and there was only 5.4 seconds left in the last attack. Duncan greeted O’Neill’s defense. When the body lost his balance, the ball was thrown in. The Spurs overtook the score 73-72, leaving the Lakers time It is exactly 0.4 seconds.
Then, it was Fisher’s 0.4 second lore that helped the Lakers win the Battle of the Heavenly King Mountain! That lore, has been praised by fans so far.
That lore is now exactly ten years away. This decade seems to be a reincarnation. Today, the referee gave the Spurs 0.4 seconds, which was the same as the Fisher’s lore ten years ago.
…
0.4 seconds means that the ball will be thrown out immediately after taking the ball, no time is allowed to stop the ball. That was the case of Fisher’s lore of the year. He did not hesitate to catch the ball after throwing it, and then threw it at the basket. Later, according to slow motion playback, the moment the ball was shot, there was 0.1 seconds left until the end of the game. It takes 0.3 seconds at the fastest from catching to shooting.
At the same time, the Spurs have to face a choice, whether they want two points or three points. The two-pointer scored can be tied, then the two sides entered overtime, and the three-pointer, the Spurs can directly overtake the score and give the Lakers an anti-killer!
And the Lakers have only one choice, that is, to guard against three points! If a two-pointer is scored, at most it will be overtime, and if a three-pointer is scored, the Lakers will lose, and it is a farewell to this year’s playoffs.
No one can guess what tactics the old fox Popovich will use. A two-pointer looks like he hopes it will be bigger. After all, the focus of the Lakers defense is a three-pointer, but Popovich is also likely to reverse Do it the same way. Even if the Spurs choose a three-pointer, no one will question, because that is Popovich’s choice.
The game restarted, and the Lakers replaced the five best athletes, with only 0.4 seconds left. At this time, it is no longer important to help defense awareness, supplementary defense awareness, etc., because the Spurs can no longer Passing, this is a one-on-one man-to-man defense, and only needs to be guarded once, so athletic ability has become the most important factor.
Duncan was ready to serve, but before the ball was delivered, Popovich requested a timeout.
“Popovich used this service to test out the Lakers’ defensive deployment. A short timeout of 20 seconds was enough for Popovich to arrange new tactics.” The commentator said.
The short 20-second timeout was fleeting, and the players returned to the court again, and this time the serve was replaced by Ginobili.
The referee’s whistle sounded, and the Spurs players immediately scattered and rushed towards the open space.
I saw Danny Green running back, and suddenly there was an empty space to catch the ball.
“Be careful of Green!”
As soon as the words fell, Bezmore gave the gap to Feng Chu, and at the same time, Leonard bowed down and stretched his arm to catch the ball.
“Leonard has a chance!”
At this moment, Ginobili threw the ball out. Instead of throwing the ball to the outside, he threw it directly in the direction of the basket.
“High toss? Is it an air relay!”
Parker suddenly bent down, rushed out of the gap, rushed towards the basket, and then jumped.
“It’s Parker? Is it Parker’s air relay! Playing an air relay with a point guard, who can think of this tactic, only Popovich!”
Whiteside rushed over immediately, and he believed that with his height and wingspan and bouncing, Parker would never get the ball.
But Parker is just a trap, he is to attract the attention of the Lakers. Another man jumped high, he appeared in midair, intercepted the basketball in the air with one hand, and then gently held it, the basketball turned into a beautiful arc and flew to the basket.
On the tall back, there was such a number: 21!
It is the No. 21 rookie of the Spurs, Tim Duncan!
He completed the attack with a one-handed throw in the air relay.
The basketball was still flying in the air, but the lights on the backboard were on.
“Oops!” Gasol turned his head and looked at the trajectory of the basketball flying in the air. Gasol alone could feel that the ball was in progress.
“Poof!” Basketball entered the basket accurately.
“Go in! The goal is scored! A 0.4 second goal, Duncan, Duncan, he saved the Spurs!”
“Same as ten years ago, a 0.4 second goal. Ten years ago, the Lakers knocked down the Spurs in 0.4 seconds, and today, ten years later, the Spurs gave the Lakers a heavy blow in the same way! It’s a pity This is a two-pointer. If it’s a three-pointer, the Lakers are going home!”
“Is this what the Lakers are paying for the ten-year-old lore? The same 0.4 seconds, the same goal. But today God seems to have given the Lakers a ray of hope, 135 to 135, followed by overtime !”
“Overtime, this wonderful contest, finally to enter overtime!”
The scene instantly fell into a tumult, the fans jumped up in excitement, they cheered and happily, they were even more fortunate, Duncan pulled the Spurs back from the edge of death, the kind of pleasure after the disaster, that This kind of heartbeat that scores at the last moment is really difficult to describe in words.
The Lakers are frustrated. They never expected that in 0.4 seconds, the Spurs turned over and the cooked duck flew away!
D’Antoni sighed a long time. There was really no way to meet a player like Duncan. This is the ability of a superstar. They turned impossible into possible. For a coach, when he meets the super-level performance of a superstar, perhaps he can only pray that his luck is just as good.
And Popovich’s tactical arrangement was indeed good enough. Ginobili served, Parker attracted Whiteside’s attention, and Duncan completed the shot with an air relay toss. The GDP combination was perfect. This time the offense was completed.
D’Antoni forcibly regained his spirit, he comforted his teammates: “It’s okay, the game is not over yet, we are still in a tie, and there is overtime. By that time, we must beat the Spurs!”
…
“Don’t be happy too early, we haven’t won yet, now we are only in overtime!” Popovich’s face is still cold, his words are like a pot of cold water, poured on the Spurs players Their mind calmed them down instantly.
The Spurs playing at home should be less afraid of overtime. Everyone knows that playing at home, the longer they play, the better the home team will have. But another factor that the Spurs have to consider is age.
The Spurs are indeed younger, and the “Mediterranean” on Ginobili’s head is what makes people feel lamentable. As for the No. 21 rookie, they are all 38 years old, let him play forty minutes in the high-intensity playoffs, it is really difficult for some strongmen.
It is said that the Spurs’ substitutes can be similar to the starting players. The replacement has the same effect as the first starter, but when the time comes to the point, it still has to rely on the “old age” GDP combination.
…
“The thin and dead camel is bigger than the horse! The Spurs really deserve to be the top strong team, and Popovich is also the top coach of the NBA. At least in the tactical game just now, D’Antoni lost to Popo. Vicky…” Zhang Guan looked across, the Spurs’ GDP combination was still on the court, and the other two players were Leonard and Danny Green.
“And Duncan, is this guy really 38 years old? No. 21 rookie, this title really deserves its name…”
…
Jump ball, overtime officially started.
