The Basketball Court Swordsman - Chapter 739

“Kevin, get ready to play!”

As soon as he heard Stephen Cole’s shout, Durant suddenly stood up. He has been on the bench for long enough, he can’t wait to get on the court to help the team end the game.

At this point, the overtime has been played for 2 minutes and 28 seconds, half gone. However, the Pacers actually relied on the lineup without a star to bite the score.

The tenacity of the Pacers lineup is beyond the expectations of the Warriors. No matter how violently they attack, the Pacers can successfully resist.

Henson saw that in the other half, Durant walked to the technical stage, so he also greeted George and Antetokounmpo, ready to start the final battle.

“Did you rest?” Henson looked at the two big guys in front of him, who were not favored by other teams in the league. However, nowadays, they are considered MVP-level players.

“We are full of energy, boss.” George and Antetokounmpo smiled.

“Very well, you know your mission. Go on the field and take up the task of scoring. Then, finish it all!”

Just as Cole and Henson were arranging substitutions, Oladipo’s mid-range jumper once again helped the Pacers equalize the score.

The audience cheered, and the commentators were also very surprised.

“It was equalized again, and they supported it with their unyielding will. Timeout, coach Steve Kerr called a timeout. The Warriors failed to open the score while Antetokounmpo and George were away. The game was right. It will become very difficult for them.”

Everyone knows what Cole’s idea is. Now that he continues to tie with the Pacers, it is definitely not the result he wants.

As always, Henson let Cole’s plan fall through.

“Let’s go, Stephen, we have to go down to prepare for the award ceremony.” In the luxurious box, Bird stood up and tidied his suit.

“Awarding ceremony? The game is not over yet, Bird.” Stephen Simon looked at Bird with a dumbfounded look. Isn’t it the most exciting time for the last 2 minutes of the game?

“It seems you don’t know enough about Henson, Stephen. After he broke Cole’s plan, the game was over.”

Bird tilted his head, he could already guess the final result.

The timeout ended, and as people expected, Cole and Henson had both changed into their star players.

Durant went back to the battlefield, while George and Antetokounmpo returned for the Pacers.

At this time, these three people are the three with the most energy on the entire basketball court. They will charge for the team, they are the last hope of the two coaches.

But Henson was very confident in the last two minutes of the duel. The reason is simple. Only Durant is the only one who is energetic. And he has two players!

Cole’s tactics for more than two minutes did not work, which almost caused the Warriors to fall into the cliff. For him now, everything is up to Durant.

However, just after halftime, Durant felt the malice from Henson Joe.

“George’s press is very tight. He puts almost all his strength on the defensive end. As we all know, defense is also a very energy-consuming and physically demanding task. If a player wants to be effective throughout the game, he has to There is a balance between offense and defense. But now, George has almost devoted all his energy to defense!”

Mike Brin was so nervous that his palms were sweaty. He didn’t know if George was so guarding Durant if it was Henson’s arrangement. Doesn’t that guy know that it is sometimes counterproductive to have players dominate both ends of the floor at the same time?

Durant used several anti-runs but failed to get rid of George. He deserves to be the forward who squeezed Leonard to the best defensive second team.

Draymond Green passed the ball to Durant after a series of responses. In Kerr’s tactics, Durant was the final point.

But unlike tactically, Durant did not get rid of the counterpoint, but was still entangled in George! George’s long arm almost made Durant miss the ball.

Durant, who originally wanted to catch the ball and shoot, saw that No. 13 was still following him, so he chose to break through.

In the fierce confrontation with George, Durant used a retreat step to open a little space, and then shot!

Unfortunately, under George’s defense like a copper wall, Durant’s first attack after returning ended in failure!

“If they didn’t make it, the Warriors could not continue the score. It can be seen that their offensive play was not smooth, and most of the time they had to rely on the personal abilities of the players to forcibly solve the problems! But not all the time, superstars can play. The magical goal! The Pacers counterattacked, very fast, Antetokounmpo has rushed to the forefront!”

Mike Brin doesn’t have time to rest at all, he speaks very fast, for fear of missing any picture. What’s faster than him is the rhythm on the court. When people reacted, Antetokounmpo had already made two strides to the Warriors basket!

Green gritted his teeth and rushed back, roughly blocking in the air. There is nothing wrong with Green’s choice, free throws are one of Antetokounmpo’s weaknesses. As long as he deliberately fouls and sends Antetokounmbo to the free throw line, it may be possible to prevent the Pacers from scoring in the fast break.

However, in this fierce confrontation, Antetokounmpo did not deform due to lack of physical strength. On the contrary, it was Green, who felt that he couldn’t bear the momentum of Antetokounmpo. After all, Green is exhausted, but Antetokounmpo is full of energy!

In this way, Green was knocked out of the bottom line in the air. At the same time, the referee blew his whistle and blew Green a defensive foul. What’s more terrible is that the basketball that Antetokounmpo pushed out was stunned after jumping on the rim for a few times and then falling into the net.

Two points are valid, and a penalty is required. Green gave the Greek a chance to hit three points!

“Draymond Green, fatal mistake! His foul is too anachronistic. If the Pacers lead by 3 points, it would be quite unfavorable for the Warriors!”

Green was also very upset, he yelled at the referee on duty. But in exchange, it was only a technical foul.

Cole was violent on the sidelines, and if someone was not for the coaching staff to hold him, this guy might have gone up to beat the referee.

However, it is not difficult to see through the replay of the scene on the big screen that the whistleblowing just now is really no problem.

“Antetokounmpo actually drove Green in the air. It’s incredible. It can be seen that Coach Henson’s arrangement is very clear. George will defend Durant at all costs, while Antetokounmpo can completely control himself His experience is on the offensive end. In contrast, Durant feels a little lackluster.”

When Mike Brin analyzed Henson’s intentions, the Warriors ran out of time.

Antetokounmpoga made a free throw and the Pacers led by 3 points in the last minute of the game! It seems that overtime is about to end!

However, the Warriors’ tenacity today is indeed admirable. After Antetokounmpo scored a three-pointer, Curry immediately retaliated.

A long shot between the center line and the three-point line, Curry showed his “Logo shot” at this desperate moment and also made it.

This ultra-long-distance three-pointer allowed the Warriors to equalize at the desperate moment. But Henson is not nervous about this. Curry will choose to shoot in that place, which is certainly a manifestation of his strength.

But this also means that the Warriors’ tactics did not run out at all, causing Curry to choose to take a dangerously super long jump shot!

In the eyes of others, Curry’s ultra-long three-pointer is good news. But in Henson’s view, this is a precursor to his victory!

“Yangnis, Yangnis, continue to give the ball to Yangnis!”

Henson commanded nervously from the sidelines. If nothing else, this would be a round to kill the game!

At this time, overtime has been played until now, both sides are very tired. Therefore, choosing an inside attack is the safest. After all, a decline in physical fitness can lead to an unstable shooting percentage.

Therefore, Henson’s strategy in the final moments of the game is to hit the basket, he will not choose to shoot three points.

Antetokounmpo held the ball on the outside, and the other four were all pulled apart. Suddenly, Antetokounmpo’s eyes were wide open. Except for Green, no one can stop him!

But just when everyone thought Antetokounmpo was going to play singles with the ball, he suddenly passed the ball to George inside!

Durant’s reaction was half a beat slow, and KD’s heart was cold when he saw George catching the ball in the penalty area.

Cousins ​​also rushed towards George like a beast. He knew very well that as long as he guards this round, the Warriors still have the hope of winning!

But facing the loneliness of Cousins ​​and Durant, George didn’t panic. He suddenly turned his back to the basket, then threw the ball back.

“hateful……”

Cousins ​​knew that something was wrong, but before he had time to react, Antetokounmpo suddenly jumped up and snapped the basketball into the box!

“Aerial relay, a beautiful aerial relay! It’s over, it’s all over. Antetokounmpo and Paul George, can always win games in this way they want! The Warriors still have a chance to attack, If they can’t grasp it, then everything is over!”

At this time, all the fans stood up. On the Pacers bench, all the players are eager to try each other, ready to rush into the court to celebrate the team’s sixth championship trophy!

Cole stopped the game and arranged the strategy of the final attack. He was holding the tactical board in despair, and he was not confident enough…

“Damn it, did you hear the cheers outside? I said, we should leave after watching the game. Now is the most exciting time!”

Walking in the player tunnel, Stephen Simon complained.

“Don’t you want to rush into the court to hug your players and coaches as soon as the team wins the championship?” Bird smiled, as if he didn’t care about the cheers outside.

“Of course I want, but if it’s not us who won the championship… You know, when we were just above, the two sides were tied.” Simon is still a little worried. If the Pacers finally lose today, everything is fine. It’s embarrassing.

After all, he even bought champagne for the players and put it in the locker room.

Just when Herbert Simon was worried, the entire player channel suddenly shook! The noise outside was at least five or six times louder than just now! Even in the player tunnel, the shouts lingered.

This situation and this scene made Simon stunned. Because he knows very well that in Bankers Life Arena, there is only one thing that can cause such a violent “earthquake”-the Pacers win the championship!

Byrd turned his head to look at Simon and lit a cigar. “What am I talking about? He will win. I think we can go out to celebrate.”
