Chapter 338 Tie-break Gambler!

The Magic got the match point ahead of the Heat. In this series, the probability of the Magic advancing is far higher than the Heat, but the next game is at the Heat's home court. The Heat are the defending champions, so the probability of being tied is still very high. Even if it is equalized, the seventh game will be played at the Magic's home court, and the Magic still have the advantage.

Today, the Spurs and the Mavericks scored 2:3, and the Spurs pulled back a game. It is expected that they will be able to drag to the tiebreaker.

On the second day, in the game between the Pistons and the Cavaliers, James was indeed a little swollen, and wanted to take advantage of the situation to win the game directly. As a result, the Pistons were in a hurry. The Pistons defeated the Cavaliers in three quarters, making the series score 2:3.

The game between the Clippers and the Lakers was also 2:3. These four matchups were all equally stalemate.

And starting from the next game, the sixth game of the series, the suspense will be revealed slowly. Four teams have won the match point. It is possible that these four teams will solve their opponents in the sixth game at the same time.

At least, Sun Zhuo thought so.

Coming to the home court of the Miami Heat, the Magic have already won the match point, and they don’t want to drag the series on any longer. Just strive to advance.

And the Heat are aiming to defend their title this season, so how could they be willing to be eliminated in the Eastern Conference semifinals?
Pat Riley became nervous in a rare way, and O'Neal and Wade became more serious. Although the Magic won three games, they still haven't found a way to deal with O'Neal and Wade. Ariza defended Wade well in the last game. One game, but was blown away by Wade. In a single quarter, Ariza was fouled three times and Ariza was beaten off the court.

The Magic used the "shark-cutting tactic" against O'Neal. Unexpectedly, O'Neal also made free throws today. Apart from controlling the opponent's offensive rhythm, it did not have any effect.

As a result, the Heat tied the score strongly at home, and the series was dragged to Game [-]!
"It's going to be a tiebreaker...Although the next game is at home, it's still a bit of a mystery. But the heat is too strong today, and I'm afraid they may not win if they do it again."

After being tied at 3:3, Sun Zhuo was also thinking about whether to use the challenge card to repeat the game, but finally decided not to use it. Maybe he would win the next game when he returned to the home court, thus saving a challenge card.

Sun Zhuo was very surprised by the result of another game today.

Sun Zhuo originally thought that the Spurs would tie the Mavericks 3:3 like in his previous life. As a result, the Mavericks won the Spurs 4:2 today and advanced to the Western Conference Finals!
"The Mavericks won the Spurs in six games?" Sun Zhuo was very surprised when he heard the result, and went to watch the video of their game. There was nothing special, but the Mavericks played better than the Spurs, so they won.

"I just sent Popovich a text message, so it won't affect their series..." Sun Zhuo felt a little guilty. He felt that even if there was an impact, it should be a good one. Why? The field explained...

The Mavericks didn't have to wait too long. The next day, the Lakers defeated the Clippers 4:2 to advance to the Western Conference Finals. The Lakers and Mavericks will compete for the Western Conference Championship!

And LeBron James lost another game and was equalized by the Pistons. He also had the same fate as Sun Zhuo and had to go through the tiebreaker.

On May 5, Magic home, tiebreaker!
The crowd was crowded today, and there were a lot more media than before. This is a day when the results are bound to come out. Presumably, even the most senior basketball commentators cannot decide who will advance to the next level, the league rookie or the defending champion.

"Sun, will you lose this game?" On the top floor of the arena, there was a spectator who was wearing a peaked cap and wrapped himself tightly, sitting quietly in his seat. He was Artest.

"I'm not in the front row, so you can't do anything to me, right?" Artest was targeted by the Heat and Sun Zhuo before, which made him very depressed. He knew he was not welcome here, but today Maybe it was the day when Sun Zhuo was eliminated from the competition. He who was only waiting for the contest with Sun Zhuo couldn't help but come to the scene.

And LeBron James, who didn't have a game today, also stood in front of the TV on time, "I thought at this time, I would sit back and relax and wait for my opponent in the Eastern Conference Finals. I didn't expect that now I am not sure whether I can enter the Eastern Conference Finals."

James has always paid special attention to Sun Zhuo and Wade, but now, he is more concerned about his own series. You must know that the tiebreaker between them and the Pistons, but at the home court of the Pistons, the Cavaliers have a slim chance of winning.

At the scene, all players are also actively doing warm-up exercises.

"It's finally ushered in the tiebreaker. Maybe for others, this is a battle of life and death, but for me, losing can still be redeemed. Don't be too nervous. They must be very careful in the seventh game. , I can be a little bolder, they don't have a three-pointer, so I will hit them first with a three-pointer!" Sun Zhuo has experienced the previous six games and has enough confidence to win against the Heat.

More importantly, when everyone was standing on the edge of the cliff, no one was safe, but Sun Zhuo had something hanging on him, so he wasn't afraid.

Pat Riley was still in a spotless suit and leather shoes, with a godfather attitude, secretly said: "Experience and patience will allow us to win this game. Magic, Sun, if you can play with us to the seventh game, you have already succeeded. .”

Pat Riley believes that even today is the Magic's home court, the Heat still have a better chance of winning, because everyone will be very careful in this game, there will be fewer mistakes, and the defense will be better. In this case, the Heat's championship experience and a All the old players will help them to win, but the Magic are too young, and they will make mistakes if they are not in order.

After the Spurs lost the series, Popovich also turned on the TV to watch the live broadcast today, "It's not easy for Sun to win the Heat. Pat Riley and Shaq won't lose Game [-]."

Even Popovich thought Sun Zhuo would lose.

It's not surprising that they have such thoughts. Judging from the first six games, if the game drags on, the Heat will indeed have the upper hand. But today, Sun Zhuo will dedicate a completely different game.

The game starts soon!
The first time the Magic attacked, Sun Zhuo slowly dribbled the ball across the half court. Before the Heat could set up their defense and react to Sun Zhuo's attack, Sun Zhuo made a sudden shot.

Whoosh!
The basketball has been thrown into the air.

"What?" The Heat players were all stunned, making a move in such a hurry?Who was so anxious when they attacked for the first time?

And it's a three-pointer!

Swish!
Since there was no interference with this shot, Sun Zhuo had an A+ three-point shooting ability and easily hit the first three-pointer.

Pat Riley was stunned when he saw this, "Is this a trial? Practice? Or did you just vote for Dwight because he didn't have a chance?"

Riley can only think this way, you can't treat the Magic's top star as a player who shoots indiscriminately when he comes up, right?

The Heat were rushing to defend their title, and the offensive was also very fierce when they first came up. O'Neal attracted double-teams, and finally scored a two-pointer for Haslem.

The Heat didn't take Sun Zhuo's offense to heart, and returned to defense without haste, and still used conventional defense to limit Sun Zhuo. This time, Sun Zhuo and Howard made a screen cooperation at the top of the arc. The cover went to the right, and was soon surrounded by two people. Sun Zhuo stopped the ball and pretended to pass it to Howard. Just this action made both of them back away from Sun Zhuo's side.

Sun Zhuo pulled up again at this time and shot!
"Another three-pointer?" Everyone was shocked, and then there was a swish, and they hit it again!

"I don't understand, I really don't understand what Sun is doing." Popovich kept shaking his head. In these two attacks, Sun Zhuo was obviously more inclined to make three-pointers from the outside. Under such circumstances, it is extremely risky to shoot three-pointers.

"He wouldn't want to bet with us on the three-pointer, would he? If the three-pointer is accurate, they will gain an advantage, but if the three-pointer is not accurate, they will be passive... This is a tiebreaker, how could he dare Do this?" Riley was also confused, what did Sun Zhuo's two three-pointers mean?
Artest sat on the top of the arena and snorted coldly: "Sun is simply a gambler! He even threw two three-pointers when he came up. These two three-pointers are too irresponsible. If you shoot all of them If he misses, even at home, he will be greeted with boos."

Although Artest is exaggerating a bit, the fact is true. Fans also value the outcome of this game. If they see Sun Zhuo wasting such a mobile phone opportunity, they will definitely be very sad. Fortunately, now If the ball is scored, if it is not scored, there will definitely be radical fans who will yell "what are you doing!" at Sun Zhuo.

"Sun is definitely not gambling. He is a wise leader. He made these two shots with absolute certainty. This is called surprise. He will not do it again."

"Yes, I have the same opinion as you. Using the threat from outside to make them defend against Sun very tightly, so as to gain opportunities in other areas, Sun should think so."

Magic fans also don't think Sun Zhuo is gambling.

"That's right, I'm just betting, betting on my three-pointer, betting on our team's three-pointer, betting that we will be able to establish a lead with a three-pointer in the opening game! I dare to bet, because I can afford to lose!"

Everyone didn't know that Sun Zhuo was a gambler at the moment!

Coach Hill on the sidelines was in a cold sweat. When Sun Zhuo told Hill his thoughts on the game, Coach Hill felt that it was too risky, but Sun Zhuo insisted on doing this. The three-pointer is the biggest goal of the Heat Weakness, the Heat do not have the help of a three-pointer. Once the score is opened, they will never be able to catch up.

The Heat also continued to score, and the score became 6:4.

Sun Zhuo's third attack, this time the defense was a little tighter, but Sun Zhuo still insisted on shooting a three-pointer from the outside!

"Vote again! How is he so sure?"

If the ball is scored again, Pat Riley will wonder if Sun Zhuo got the plug-in from somewhere, how can he score one by one like this.

boom.

The ball was ejected, but Howard grabbed the rebound immediately. At this time, Howard saw Sun Zhuo running to the right corner, and immediately passed the ball to Sun Zhuo.

Sun Zhuo came to the corner position where he was best at, and shot immediately after receiving the ball!
Swish!
Again!

9: 4!

"He's crazy! The first four shots were all three-pointers! But he made three of four shots..." Artest stood up excitedly.

"Ah, aren't you Ron Artest of the Kings?" The fans around him recognized Artest.

At this time, the Heat assistant coach saw that the situation was out of control, so he walked behind Pat Riley and asked, "Do you want to call a timeout?"

Although Pat Riley did not expect the situation to turn out like this, he resolutely replied: "Why call a timeout to give the lunatic a chance to calm down? If he wants to shoot a three-pointer, let him shoot!"

Pat Riley doesn't believe that Sun Zhuo's three-pointers are so good. If he really made one and scored one, the series would not have to be dragged to the seventh game.

The Heat's offensive was still fierce, and quickly turned the score into 9:6.

"If Sun misses all the three-pointers, I'm afraid he will be beaten by the Heat now. It's really risky. Sun is too daring to bet." LeBron James couldn't help sweating for the Magic when he saw this.

Everyone thought that Sun Zhuo would restrain himself next time, but he didn't.

Sun Zhuo didn't force himself to shoot again, because the defense he encountered was different, but he still let his teammates shoot three-pointers.

Immediately afterwards, Turkoglu also hit a three-pointer at a 45-degree angle.

12: 6!

"What the hell!" Pat Riley finally couldn't sit still and called a timeout, but he didn't make any accusations against the Heat players. They did a good job, the Magic took the lead, and luck was a big factor.

"Why are they so confident in the outside three-pointer today? Could it be that they have practiced three-pointers in the past few days?" Wade returned to his seat, also very depressed.

"Even if it is an extra three-pointer, this group of rookies who have never played in the playoffs dare not shoot in the tiebreaker. This is the tiebreaker. I have played in the playoffs for so many years and won so many. Many championships, I was very cautious in today's tie-break game, even a little nervous, but you can see that they, especially Sun, don't take the game seriously at all, and shoot as soon as they get the ball! No respect for this tie-breaker at all. Seven games!" O'Neill also complained, Sun Zhuo's three-pointer was not what made him most depressed, but Sun Zhuo's indifferent attitude.

"Does Sun have a bad memory recently? Why don't you remind him that today is a tiebreaker, not just a playoff game. If you lose, the season will be over," Anthony Walker said.

O'Neill nodded, he really felt that this was necessary.

"Ignore him, let them shoot if they want to shoot, once they hit the ball, we can quickly control the game, they are helping us." Pat Riley said confidently. He has coached for so many years and has never encountered It was defeated by a three-pointer at the beginning of the game.

The Magic are now leading the score, and their mentality is more confident and relaxed. Next, they will continue to do so, constantly looking for opportunities to make three-pointers from the outside, and no one will hesitate in the slightest when opportunities arise.

Swish!
Swish!
Jameer Nelson and Sun Zhuo hit three-pointers one after another!
Soon, the score became 18:10.

The Heat have played well enough to score almost all the goals that should be scored, but they are still 8 points behind.

"Do you know that today is the seventh game?" O'Neill couldn't bear it anymore, and asked Sun Zhuo.
