After the confession failed, I went to the NBA to play and lose weight

Chapter 92 Lore?Killed?

The game quickly entered the last 2 minutes, and the score between the two teams was 96:95.

Before this, the two teams have gone through a long iron feast, and you come and I have a lot of fun, and then they began to recover slowly at this time.

First, at 1 minute and 47 seconds, Joe Johnson faced Li Chengming with a step-back jumper in the short corner and made two free throws. After 15 seconds, Li Chengming responded to Smith in the same position, and the ball was hit. A 2+1.

At 1 minute and 11 seconds, Smith broke through the basket again and caused damage, and Lewis also fouled 5 times.

Smith made two free throws, and after the connection between Turkoglu and Lewis, Lewis made a layup without showing weakness.

In 49 seconds, Li Chengming made a pass error after being double-teamed. Turkoglu wanted to fight back on the spot, but he was also fouled. He fouled 4 times and sent Joe Johnson to the free throw line.

After two free throws, 102:97, the Magic fell behind by 5 points, and Van Gundy quickly called a timeout.

The DJ on the spot began to call on the home fans to cheer for the team. They had a bad start in this game, but they never gave up. They tied and overtook many times in the third and final quarters. In this situation, they need and deserve their encouragement.

And as the head star, Howard did not perform well today, but as Orlando's darling, everyone will not change their views on him because of the gains and losses at this moment.

Besides, haven't you lost yet?

As long as we can win in the end, some problems are not worth mentioning now.

"MAGIC! GO!!"

"MAGIC! GO!!"

"Ugh-"

The timeout is over, back to the game.

Van Gundy made a small adjustment, replacing Bogans with Arroyo, so he could have one more ball-handling point on the court.

Today, the Magic failed to shoot three-pointers, only 35% of them, which is one of the reasons why they did not score high. In this case, Van Gundy simply chose to continue to play inside, and through continuous screens and breakthroughs, the opponent's defense line Tear it apart to find the most suitable time to shoot.

Of course, if there is a chance for a three-pointer, you still have to choose to shoot, at least you have to dare to shoot. Anyway, except for Howard, the other four can shoot three-pointers. This time they all made three-pointers, and the efficiency is not considered. too bad.

The first attack came up after Arroyo and Li Chengming picked and rolled, Li Chengming pulled out to the outside, ready to catch the ball at any time.

Although Van Gundy and Li Chengming said earlier that the game would not change tactics for the time being, this most basic pick-and-roll style of play is what they have in their usual training, and they don't need to rehearse it.

Arroyo got past Marvin in one step and went inside, attracting Sheldon's supplementary defense and assisting Howard for a dunk.

Although it seems simple and one hit is sure to hit, but whether it is Li Chengming, Lewis, or Turkoglu, they all pull a player of the Eagles in an instant, which also makes him open. Small and big are misplaced, if they don't make it, they have a problem.

At 36 seconds, the Eagles attacked. Johnson missed the mid-range shot this time. Howard grabbed the rebound and threw it forward.

Arroyo was not fast and was caught up by Anthony Johnson while dribbling, but he sensed the opponent's attempt to steal, a bad luck directly passed the opponent and hit a layup, chasing the point difference to 1 point again.

With the last 31 seconds left in the game, both teams still have at least one offensive round. The Hawks' final attack is particularly important. Coach Jim O'Brien immediately called a timeout and prepared to rearrange.

Of course, the safest thing to do at this time is to quickly score two points. Firstly, it is more confident, and secondly, it is possible to win another chance to attack.

After all, 31 seconds, even if 24 seconds are exhausted, will still leave enough time for the Magic to attack.

It's okay to say that if they scored in this attack, if they failed to score, they might let the opponent kill.

At this time, Van Gundy is also considering where the opponent will attack from. In fact, their offensive core is easy to guess. Both Smith and Johnson took 20 shots in this game, and their shooting rights are relatively concentrated.

And if it is the key ball at the last moment, judging from past experience, it is more likely to be assigned to Johnson. His shooting is also better, and he is more confident at the last moment.

So he said: "Next, keep an eye on No. 55. If you can't let him catch the ball, don't let him catch the ball."

Of course, at this time, it is necessary to change to a defensive lineup, so Li Chengming was taken down first, and then the game quickly restarted.

At this time, fans of the two teams from all over the world, no matter whether they are on the scene or in front of the TV or computer, are watching the game with their hearts hanging, and the live DJ in the arena is trying to mobilize the home fans as much as possible. The emotions of these teams let the "sixth men" play their morale-boosting role.

beep!
The Eagles served from the sideline, and when Smith stood on the sidelines, it was obvious that Joe Johnson was ready to receive the ball.

Mike Woodson was ready to let Johnson attack one as expected, so after he came out to catch the ball with the double screen, he took a step inside the three-point line and immediately used Sheldon's screen to block the jumper.

Bogans interfered from the side as much as possible, and at the same time, other people from the two teams gathered under the basket in an instant. After seeing the basketball hit the edge of the basket and fell, several figures jumped up at the same time. But in the end, I don't know whose hand it hit, and the ball was directly knocked out of bounds.

In an instant, the five players from the Magic team all pointed to the backcourt, while the five players from the Eagles team pointed to the frontcourt. It would be interesting to mislead the referee at such a time.

The three referees couldn't determine who had the ball at the first time, so a replay was needed to judge at this time.

And taking advantage of this time, the players on both sides also take the time to rest and recover their physical fitness, and the coach is also trying to find ways to make other arrangements in case of emergency.

"The ball was replayed according to the video. In the end, it was ruled that the ball was hit by Howard's forearm, so it was still the ball in the frontcourt, and the Eagles had the ball. With 25 seconds left in the game, the Eagles led by one point , they can completely run out of time before making a move.

"Of course, if the goal cannot be scored, the time left for the Magic may cause them to be lore, and there is not enough time to give them a chance to overtake. So success or failure depends on it!"

For the Eagles, this is of course good news, but it is also a dilemma.

The Magic are also very nervous, because they are now on the passive defensive side, especially since they are still behind in the score. The outcome of the game is not up to them, but in the hands of the opponent and even the referee.

Howard's expression still looked a bit annoyed, but Van Gundy didn't have time to appease him, so he summoned the players and quickly made some arrangements, mainly defensively.

He didn't intend to make them foul immediately, which would be equivalent to sending points directly. If the opponent made two free throws, even if they hit a three-pointer at the end, they would only be able to tie.

It is the best result if you can force a mistake before your opponent makes a shot, although this is not realistic.

Fortunately, the previous arrangement is still valid at this time, and he doesn't need to make any more changes. At this time, he just needs to see whether the Eagles choose to waste time later or still play one in advance.

For the fans at the scene, they expressed that they could not accept such a penalty, even though the replay on the big screen clearly showed that the ball did touch Howard's forearm, but the fans thought that Marvin's finger on the other side There is also a suspicion of touching, and at worst, a scrimmage should be awarded.

Of course, even if they booed loudly, the penalty cannot be changed at this time. Fortunately, this will not trigger the referee's reaction. If it is a player or a coach, it will have to eat a T.

"Keep calm, trust your feelings, and pay attention to their running..." Van Gundy could only choose to pour more chicken soup on his disciples at this time, hoping to increase their motivation.

The timeout ended quickly, the Magic were still in the defensive lineup, and everyone ran in a timely manner. The Eagles were almost forced into a free throw violation. In the end, Joe Johnson had to run to the backcourt to receive the ball smoothly.

However, this has little effect on him, because the time is completely enough. It seems that Mike Woodson chose to put all his eggs in one basket and decided to let them press the time for the last attack, not giving the opponent a chance, nor giving himself a chance.

"It's hard to say whether this is the right choice. If this attack is not successful and is finally killed, I don't know if Mike Woodson will regret it..." The on-site commentary looked at the player holding the ball at the top of the arc to press time. Johnson, too, shook his head.

However, the choices in the game have always been without an absolutely perfect plan, and no one knows whether it will be a success or a failure before it is made.

Time is slowly going back, and all the fans in the audience have stood up, and many of them kept jumping with their hands on their chests, as if they wanted to use this method to relieve their inner tension.

Of course, the most tense players are actually the ten players on the field. The Magic will not relax their vigilance just because the other Eagles players stand still. Although most people are still attracted by Johnson holding the ball, they also keep the coach in mind. According to the instructions, keep an eye on their counterparts.

On the Eagles side, after a few people ran for a bit of tactics and exhausted their energy, they stopped and waited for the time to consume.

The key ball tactics actually don’t seem complicated most of the time. It is nothing more than a pick-and-roll or a screen to create opportunities for the ball holder to directly attack the frame or one-on-one.

At this time, it is very difficult to run out of open space by tactics alone, because the opponent's attention will also be very focused, and they will be very targeted.

Then finally entered the last ten seconds, 9, 8...

At 6 seconds, Johnson finally started. At the same time, Marvin stepped up and blocked the defender for him. Johnson dribbled the ball from the left and broke through, and suddenly made a step-back jumper.

The ball drew a beautiful arc in the air, but the result was not beautiful. It hit the frame directly. Howard leaped high like a rocket into the sky, and directly protected the rebound. In an instant, Van Gundy also shouted with happiness a pause.

At this time, there are 3 seconds left in the time, and I don’t know whether the opponent deliberately calculated it or not, but this is good news for the Magic, at least they have a chance to kill, and it can even be said that the time is relatively leisurely .

After the timeout, Li Chengming was also replaced to execute the tactics of the final attack. Except for Howard, the other four players on the court had three-point opportunities.

"The Magic team served! The Eagles' defense is also very oppressive. There is no chance to catch the ball under the basket. The Magic team's tactics can't be played well. The ball can only be sent to the backcourt. Li Chengming jumped up and received the ball , Smith's defense is very tight - Li Chengming took a step forward, there was not enough time, so he shot directly..."

"Do you have?"
