Basketball Myth: Super Guard

Chapter 557 Desperate!
"How about it?"

"Qin, are you not injured?"

Teammates rushed over one after another and surrounded Qin Hao.

Qin Hao waved his hand: "It's okay."

The referee gave a common foul on this ball and signaled Qin Hao to go to the free throw line.

As the game time dwindles, the scores of the two sides are always anxious, and the referees are becoming more and more cautious when whistled, because every whistle they make may affect the result of the game.

"Shh, shh!"

Qin Hao made two free throws.

At this time, there were more than two minutes left in the game. Syracuse University caught up with the score with Qin Hao's two free throws, and even overtook it by one point. The score between the two sides became 76:75.

The University of Kentucky requested a timeout.

When the players came down, Coach Calipari spread out the tactical board and rearranged the tactics
After a moment, the pause ends.

The two sides returned to the field, and Kentucky attacked.

After Wall came to the frontcourt, Cousins ​​made a pick-and-roll cooperation, and then passed the ball back to Cousins. Cousins ​​stood outside the three-point line and directly made a three-point shot.

Jefferson was taken aback. He didn't expect Cousins ​​to shoot directly, and he was a lot shorter, so it was difficult to block the shot, so he could only interfere.

Swish!
But the ball was still scored.

The score became 76:78, and the University of Kentucky once again took the lead.

Syracuse fought back.

At this moment, the fans of both sides in the auditorium were all tense, watching the stadium without blinking, cheering for the team they supported.

"The ball." Qin Hao ran back to get the ball, Wall quickly came forward, Qin Hao took a look at the situation on the court, Cousins ​​was sticking to the inside, Qin Hao didn't directly play singles, but asked for a pick-and-roll, and then Only after breaking through and hitting the inside line, Cousins ​​was in front, and Qin Hao jumped up to meet him.

"Hmph." Cousins ​​snorted angrily and jumped up immediately, but this time he was not in a hurry to start.

During the timeout just now, coach Calipari told Cousins ​​to control his movements and not to foul easily, especially against Qin Hao, whose free throws were too accurate.

So this time Cousins ​​didn't foul, but just raised his hands high, causing Qin Hao a huge disturbance.

However, this time Qin Hao did not make a shot by himself, but passed the ball out to Butler. Butler took the ball and broke through, quickly rushed into the inside line, and Cousins ​​rushed forward.

Snapped!
beep!
This time Cousins ​​still couldn't control his movements well after all. After all, it was Butler who rushed in, and he was furious when he saw Butler.

"Damn it." Cousins' face was ashen. He had already regretted it. With a two-point lead, his foul was equivalent to giving the opponent a chance to tie the score.

With all eyes on, Butler walked to the free throw line.

Butler was very steady this time, making both free throws, the score was 78:78, and the two sides tied again.

There was only more than one minute left in the game. Both sides were very nervous and exhausted a lot of energy. As a result, neither side scored in the next two rounds.

Quietly, there were only tens of seconds left in the game.

"Request a pause!"

Coach Calipari asked for a timeout, and the opponent said: "There are 39 seconds left, we have to try to score this goal, but no matter whether we can score or not, we have to waste time first, and we also use up the 35 seconds of attack time. .”

With 39 seconds left and the score tied, the University of Kentucky has a chance to kill the game, but Coach Calipari must consider what happens, so it takes time first. If he fails to score, the 35-second attack time runs out. Only give Syracuse University four seconds, at most five seconds, and Syracuse University will be very difficult to play.

"John." Coach Calipari looked at Wall, "This is the last attack for you."

"Yeah." Wall nodded with an extremely serious expression.

For Syracuse University, Coach Fox's arrangement is very simple, that is, to defend well. They must defend the ball. If they defend the ball, they still have a few seconds and a chance to make a lore.Even if it can't be a lore, at most it will be overtime.

The pause ends soon.

The two sides returned to the court, Wall held the ball and advanced to the front court, and began to consume time.

At this time, the University of Kentucky will not be in a hurry to attack, and Syracuse University will not go up to foul, because the number of fouls has already been reached, and 78:78, the score is tied, and fouling is equivalent to giving points to the opponent.

So Qin Hao and the others, together with the tens of thousands of fans in the auditorium, silently counted down the time, and the 35-second attack time became less and less, the last 10 seconds, 9 seconds, 8 seconds.
It wasn't until there were only 6 seconds left that Wall asked for a pick-and-roll, and then made a breakthrough, but he failed. Although Qin Hao was blocked by Cousins, Butler immediately pounced on him. With Butler's defense, Wall It's not easy for Er to get past him.

Seeing that the attack time was getting shorter and shorter, Wall gritted his teeth, jumped up with a retreat step, lifted the ball up, leaned back a little, and flicked his wrist.
boom!
A muffled sound.

Watching the basketball bounce off the hoop broke the hearts of Kentucky fans.

If this goal is scored, the University of Kentucky will be able to lead by two points and take the initiative. With only a few seconds left for Syracuse University, there is a great chance of winning.

But the ball didn't go in.

However, at this moment, Cousins ​​jumped up, grabbed the rebound, then hit his butt, arched Jefferson away, and immediately made a tip-up.

Swish!
The goal was scored, the score was 80:78, and the University of Kentucky led by 2 points.

All this happened in a blink of an eye, all too fast.

From disappointment to ecstasy, the fans of the University of Kentucky jumped and screamed, all happy and crazy.

"The goal went in and we were ahead."

"Haha, 80:78, we Kentucky leads by 2 points, and there are only 1.7 seconds left in the game, Syracuse University is finished."

In the auditorium, the noise was loud.

At this time, Cousins ​​got the rebound and scored a second offense, leaving only 1.7 seconds for Syracuse University. For Syracuse University fans, it is a bit unreal.

How could this be?
"I" Kent opened his mouth, but in the end he choked up and lost his voice. His eyes were red with guilt and self-blame, and tears slipped down quietly.

In order to prevent this attack, Coach Fox replaced Kent to increase the height of the inside line. He was the one who was facing Cousins, but he allowed Cousins ​​to get the rebound and score the ball.

Kent couldn't forgive himself.

"fine."

A hand fell on Kent's arm, Kent turned his head, tears gurgling, and his voice choked up: "Qin, it's all my fault, it's all my fault"

Qin Hao said softly: "It's okay, isn't there still 1.7 seconds left? We still have a chance."

Butler, Jefferson, and Tucker also gathered around and comforted Kent, but there was only 1.7 seconds left in the game. Do they really have a chance?
In the auditorium, in front of the TV, and in front of the computer, countless fans who followed the game and supported Syracuse University were silent at this moment.

With only 1.7 seconds left, Syracuse University trailed by 2 points. Theoretically, they do have hope of a comeback, but it is too difficult.
