NBA Opening Draw To Twilight Shaquille O’Neal - Vol 2 Chapter 1018

In front of the TV, countless fans were stunned.

No one expected that today’s game would be so fierce that it ended up going into overtime.

The Rose Garden Arena is very lively, and the atmosphere is extremely anxious.

Everyone is waiting for overtime.

The timeout ended, and there were lineup adjustments on both sides.

The Trail Blazers are here, and Barton feels average tonight. In overtime, coach Terry put Connett Lee on the lineup, and the other four starting positions remain unchanged.

On the Mosaic team, since Nurkic has already been covered with six offenses, Capela can only be placed at the fifth position to defend here.

At the same time, D’Antoni also put Anthony in the fourth position. Judging from Anthony’s tonnage, there is no problem in playing the fourth position temporarily.

The first, second and third positions of the Mosaic team are Harden, Gordon and Ariza respectively.

Among them, Gordon’s state exploded tonight, contributing 18 points in the first four quarters, and he was the third highest scoring player in the Mosaic team tonight.

The reason why D’Antoni sent this lineup is self-evident, this is the rhythm to carry the magic ball to the end!

Except for Capela, who only needs to shoulder the work of protecting the frame, the other four positions have enough shooting ability, which can be regarded as an alternative one-star four-shot small lineup.

Not a lot, it’s because Capela, who is 2 meters 08, looks too thin in front of Wang Zelin.

The coaches of both sides meet each other!

Not only did the “Dangua” combination break out tonight, but Wang Zelin’s performance was as stable and terrifying as ever. His personal score in the first four quarters has reached 35 points.

Putting 35 points in four quarters on any other player in active service is a commendable thing, but it’s still a bit low on Wang Zelin, and he hasn’t even reached the season average.

But he can’t be blamed for this. Although Barton is strong tonight, the Blazers’ shooters are online. Lillard, Batum, Connett Lee, Yi Jianlian, Morrow, and Carter all scored in double figures.

Especially Lillard, tonight he made 7 of 13 three-pointers and was the fourth player to score 30+ in the game. He scored 31 points and sent 11 assists.

Both sides can be said to be online tonight. Although one or two players on both sides have collapsed, the overall performance is still very satisfactory.

Sometimes, a great game requires not only its own strength, but also a transposition of an equally strong opponent.

It is only under the strong collision that it is possible to push the game to the peak and finally create a great game!

With the whistle of the referee, finally ushered in the last moment.

Up to now, in fact, no matter who wins in the end, no one will be surprised. But it is also because of this that at the moment when the victory or defeat has not yet ended, both of them are determined to make a final fight.

Players from both sides come to the middle circle to jump the ball.

“MVP! MVP! MVP!”

The MVP chants of the home fans came to mind all around.

No need to think about it, who are these voices for?

The Mosaic fans in front of the screen looked nervously at No. 36 of the Trail Blazers who was about to jump the ball.

This time, we should win once, right?

Mosaic fans think so.

“beep”

The referee blew the whistle and threw the ball into the sky. Although Capela knew that there was a high probability of losing, he still wanted to fight and challenge the number one active center forward.

“Come on, come on… just a little bit!”

Seeing the ball within reach, a look of joy first appeared on his face, but then, a giant hand suddenly appeared in front of his eyes, the joy that had just risen disappeared, and everything turned into fear.

This guy…

“Snapped!”

Wang Zelin took the lead to touch the ball and it landed in the hands of Connett Lee.

The Blazers went first, and Connett Lee handed the ball to Lillard. Lillard looked up. The Mosaic team had already prepared and returned to defense very quickly. It seemed that there was no chance of a fast break, but…

Opportunities are often created by people!

After landing, Wang Zelin slammed his head down and rushed into the three-point line with full power. After rushing into the free throw line, he pointed his right index finger to the sky.

Lillard understood and threw the ball into the sky just past the middle circle.

Everyone hurriedly looked around, only to see a figure suddenly jumping from the basket of the Mosaic team, he jumped so high, and after getting the ball, he just said a one-handed heavy dunk!

At 123:121, the Trail Blazers achieved a go-ahead score within 5 seconds of overtime.

“MVP…”

The shouts of the fans at the scene became louder and louder, and they kept waving their palms to celebrate Wang Zelin’s moment.

Seeing ESPN’s commentator Mike Mahon couldn’t help but say: “Hey~ this buddy needs someone to stop it, it’s too easy to be good!”

On the field, after Wang Zelin completed the attack, he retreated quickly, and did not forget to celebrate with his teammates by high-fiving on the way.

Harden looked at Wang Zelin’s back with an extremely solemn expression, but immediately regained his confidence when he turned his head to look at his teammates: “Leave him alone, let’s hit us, serve quickly!”

“Yeah!” Capela hummed, and then sent the ball to the boss Harden.

In the frontcourt, Harden organized the offense patiently.

After a run, he saw Anthony stretching out his hand under the basket. He wanted to pass back and forth, but Batum switched to the inside and stopped in front of Anthony.

The tactics of the Mosaic team did not play out. Harden organized the offense and greeted Ariza’s high pick-and-roll, and passed back to Ariza after a breakthrough.

But as soon as Ariza received the ball, Wang Zelin’s defense was in place.

It is really that Capela’s offensive threat is too limited, and scoring from the three-second zone is completely dependent on the sky, so Wang Zelin focused on Mosaic’s fiery outside group.

Facts have proved that his choice is correct.

Wang Zelin assisted Connet Lee to restrain Ariza very well, and the two quickly double-teamed him.

D’Antoni on the sidelines was in a bad mood, and hurriedly got up and shouted: “Hurry up and respond! It has already been reported.”

But there is not much time left for attacking, and the more urgent you are at this time, the more likely you are to make mistakes. Ariza turned around and wanted to pass to Harden on the left, but just raised his hand.

At this moment, Wang Zelin slapped him hard.

With a “snap”, the ball was poked off and flew to the backcourt.

“Wang Zelin…he made a key steal! Opportunity, the Trail Blazers got a chance to expand the score…”

Mike Mahon was overwhelmed with excitement, he had completely integrated into the scorching atmosphere of the scene, and unknowingly turned into a honey!

This is opportunity.

Wang Zelin knew this very well, and Harden on the side also knew this very well. They both looked in the direction where the ball landed and made their own choices.

Harden turned around and was about to start to rush over, but saw a familiar figure leave the ground, and just flew out.

Do you want to fight like this?

Seeing this scene, everyone was stunned for a moment, including Harden, one of the two parties involved…

But just for a moment, the opportunity was fleeting, Wang Zelin fell to the ground regardless of the danger, and successfully grabbed the ball into his arms.

At this time, the tacit understanding between players is particularly important.

Among the other 9 players on the field, Lillard was the first to react.

In fact, at the moment when Wang Zelin poked the ball away, he had already made the choice to turn around and run towards the Mosaic half.

He believes in Wang Zelin more than anyone else. As a player of the same class, he has witnessed many miracles created by the latter. When the team needs it most, the latter can always stand up in time.

This time, there will be no exception!

Therefore, he once again chose to trust Wang Zelin unconditionally!

And Wang Zelin did not disappoint Lillard. After grabbing the ball, he subconsciously looked at the Mosaic team’s half court, and his eyes quickly locked on Lillard who was about to reach the three-point line on the opposite side.

Next, it’s up to you, good brother!

Wang Zelin struggled to get up, half-kneeling in the posture of throwing a bowling ball, caught and passed the ball, and looked over.

At this moment, the two seemed to have a telepathic connection. Lillard suddenly turned his head and saw the basketball rolling over the floor at first glance. Then he looked back and saw an extremely hot gaze.

I will not let you down!

Lillard returned a hard look, picked up the ball, and quickly rushed to the basket. In order to take off on one foot after two steps, he held the ball with his right hand and smashed it hard to the basket.

“boom!”

A very chic one-handed buckle!

125:121, the Blazers continued to expand their lead.

After landing, Lillard didn’t care about the ball under his feet, but turned around and rushed to the center circle quickly, helping Wang Zelin up.

“Portland ~ must win!”

“Portland ~ must win!”

“Portland ~ must win!”

Compared to the dunk just now, the home fans were moved by the scene in front of them, and let out waves of heart-piercing roars.

The reporters and photographers at the scene were not for nothing, they recorded all the wonderful shots just now, especially the passionate stare between Wang Zelin and Lillard when the ball was passed halfway, which made them even more excited. Almost jumped up with excitement.

“Perhaps, a classic scene comparable to Janeway’s connection was born!”

A beautiful woman from Sports Illustrated remembers looking at the photos taken by the photographer with an extremely moved expression, and she didn’t even notice the vibrato when she just spoke.

The Mosaic team was replaced early, and D’Antoni’s expression became more and more gloomy. Hearing the shouts from around him, his heart gradually sank to the bottom.

Less than half a minute into overtime, the Trail Blazers scored with a steal and a counterattack, which completely disrupted his original deployment.

At the same time, the morale of the Trail Blazers reached an unprecedented peak.

As one of the famous NBA coaches, D’Antoni clearly felt the change in the morale of both sides. If the Mosaic team still fails to attack in the next round, then they will completely lose the chance to defeat the Blazers.

“James!”

Thinking of this, he hurriedly shouted to Harden.

Harden turned his head when he heard the sound, and quickly understood what was in the coach’s gaze, nodded heavily, and then took the serve from Capela’s hand.

Mosaic attacked, and Harden slowly advanced while making tactical gestures towards his teammates.

Pull it all away for me, you big brother, I want to play singles!

That’s right, this is Harden’s unique singles gesture in the Mosaic team. You basically know this tactic in other teams.

Sure enough, seeing the other players in Mosaic looking away, Lillard’s expression also became serious.

“Do you want to change it?”

At this time, Batum, who was high on the right, shouted.

There is a difference in height and tonnage between Lillard and Harden. If one-on-one is simple, nine out of ten will be overwhelmed by the opponent.

“Um.”

Lillard hesitated for a moment, chose to focus on the overall situation, and took the initiative to switch defenses.

As for Harden, as the number one shooting guard in active service, he is full of confidence in his scoring ability. This is the absolute confidence of being a super breakup!

No matter who he is facing, he has the confidence to beat his opponent one-on-one!

After the opponent finished switching defenses, Harden slowly approached the three-point line.

Seeing Harden’s fake moves all over his body, Batum didn’t dare to make casual moves. He didn’t watch the ball, but locked on Harden’s shoulders.

Generally speaking, when a player wants to make a breakthrough, the first thing to react is the shoulder. As long as the shoulder moves, he knows which way the opponent is going.

This is an elite defender’s experience!

But it’s a pity that Batum met the red-eyed killing **** today!

Harden took a step forward, and Batum retreated subconsciously.

But in the next second, Harden took another step back and returned to the outside of the three-point line. Batum judged it, and his pace was not slow, and he flew over decisively.

At this moment, the corners of Harden’s mouth curled up slightly, revealing a sneer of a successful plan.

After waiting for Batum to take off completely, he seized the moment of falling and jumped up decisively. He took the initiative to meet Batum with his right hand and touched Batum.

Foul outside the three-point line?

Seeing this scene, some fans jumped up from their seats anxiously.

The next moment, the referee blew his whistle, and Harden’s plan seemed to have come true.

The Blazers players on the field also took the opportunity to be fouled three times by Harden.

But they seem to have forgotten one very important thing, Harden is left-handed!

After being called for a foul, Harden relied on his strong core strength to keep his shooting shape unchanged and shot the ball.

“Shua!”

The basketball drew a beautiful arc like a full moon scimitar in the air, and finally entered the net hollowly.

Three points scored, but also a free throw!

This is Harden’s real purpose, the three-pointer after taking the initiative to foul, and scored!

The terrifying confidence of a super scorer!

After the goal was scored, there was an inexplicable silence on the scene. After finally expanding the four-point lead, is the opposite goal about to tie?

There was a burst of excited shouts from the Mosaic team’s bench.

After being suppressed for so long, they finally found a chance to release it, so they had to desperately vent it.

This goal is super handsome, extremely incomprehensible, and completely unreasonable!

And this is exactly the charm of superstar moments!

If you have to pay attention to rationality in every attack, then why do you need superstars?

Besides, superstars receive so much maximum salary, this is what they do!

Just like Wang Zelin and Lillard in front of them, they stunned their opponents in less than half a minute.

The same is true for Harden now, he is also helping the team in his own way.

The entire Rose Garden arena was stopped by him, and the teammates on the bench were completely excited, and each of them felt better than making a three-pointer by himself.

On the contrary, Harden himself seemed very calm, with only a trace of murderous look in his eyes.

Wang Zelin crossed his hips, UU Reading www.uukanshu.com coughed, and the teammates around him came to their senses.

This kind of team mosaic is a great boost to morale, but it is a fatal blow to the Trail Blazers.

Fortunately, even if Hardenga made a free throw and scored 4 points, the two sides just equalized the score.

“Fighting of the gods! This is the real fight of the gods!”

In the Tengxun studio, Yang Yi said vividly.

“As expected of the No. 1 shooting guard in active service, it’s amazing.” Wang Meng also commented.

“Every point is very precious now, how about Deng Ge’s penalty?”

“Hey, the penalty was scored, the Mosaic team scored 4 points and succeeded, 125:125, the two sides tied!”

Amidst the continuous commentary, the fierce competition continued.
