Chapter 189 The Gods Descend to Earth, An Epic Reversal
"I know, I have to admit that on some nights, my hands won't be great, and the Bobcats have played an effective defense, but I promise the next game, there will be changes."
LeBron James was interviewed after losing G3, put down this sentence in a hurry, and ended the interview.
When Larry Hughes was interviewed by reporters, he couldn't help complaining when he was asked about his sluggish state: "Many of the Bobcats' defensive actions are unconventional, but many referees didn't blow it. Yes, for the away game The team is not fair."
Fans of the Cleveland Cavaliers and the Charlotte Bobcats also unsurprisingly started a mutual spray mode on the Internet.
'Damn, bobcats are a dirty team, did the refs gamble?'
'The whole court is black whistle, the league is fixing the game'
'LeBron is a jerk'
'Cavs weren't as clean as they were in Cleveland'
The scene of James being knocked to the ground by the defense today is also continuously played on the sports video website.
"It's nothing. For us, it's pediatrics. Real men are never afraid of physical contact."
Joe Dumars, once one of the leaders of the Pistons Bad Boys, said bluntly: "You can go and look at the series between us and the Bulls. Jordan received much more advanced treatment than James. Defense won The championship James needs to accept this test, and the fans should complain less, a game with collisions is a basketball game."
Magic Johnson said: "This game is a bit like the Eastern Conference semifinals. The Bobcats won a game with their targeted defense. This wave, I am on the side of the Bobcats. I like to watch competitive play." the match of."
……
The next day, the fourth game between the Charlotte Bobcats and the Cleveland Cavaliers in the Eastern Conference semifinals started again.
Before the game, LeBron James specially practiced three-point shooting, hoping to change.
This game for the Charlotte Bobcats will definitely continue the defensive strategy of the previous game. Even, while implementing the tactics of the previous game, the defensive intensity of the previous game will be improved.
"Guys, go to Cleveland with 2-2!"
夏洛特山猫队这边气势正盛,势必要拿下G4,毕竟1-3和2-2的心态完全是两回事。
Game start.
The Charlotte Bobcats and Cleveland Cavaliers have the same lineups as in the previous game.
The Cleveland Cavaliers also made adjustments, attacking the inside first in the opening stage. In the last game, Big Z Ilkeskas only took 5 shots against the shorter center Okafor, who was shorter than himself. Scored 9 points and 11 rebounds, and in this game, Mike Brown started to make a fuss about this group of matchups in the opening stage.
Facing Irkeskas' big hook, Okafor could only watch.
The Cavaliers scored first.
On the Bobcats side, the first to respond was Raymond Felton, who fired from the outside and hit a three-pointer.
In this round of the series, Raymond Felton's shooting percentage was actually not bad, but under the control of Bernie Bickerstaff, Brandon Roy and Zhou Lin dominated took most of the ball.
On the Cavaliers' side, Larry Hughes also started scoring mode. Facing Brandon Roy's defense, he broke through and leaned on the latter's body to make a high hit.
In the first quarter of the game, LeBron James was mobilizing his teammates more.
This is also a change in the Cavaliers' style of play against the Bobcats. The Cavaliers need a second and third player who can score independently to stand up.
And LeBron James, in the entire first quarter, only made 2 of 1 shots.
On the premise that Raymond Felton felt good today, the Bobcats also gave more ball rights to the point guard.
Xiaogangpao performed well, 7 of 4 in the first quarter, 10 points and 2 assists in a single quarter, helping the team support the first quarter.
Zhou Lin missed 1 shot in the first quarter and only had 1 assist and 2 rebounds.
The team trailed by one point 24-25.
CCTV reporter Xu Jicheng said: "In this first quarter, Zhou Lin and James, as the main players of the two sides, only took one shot and two shots respectively, which is not like the regular first quarter of the two teams. It’s the players, and the coaches on both sides are also fighting wits and courage, and the players playing like this must be the arrangement of the coaches.”
If James can be redeemed, no matter if it is any player of the Bobcats, it is worth it, but James's first quarter decentralization is only temporary. In the transition period, Brandon Roy played an efficient Scoring efficiency, plus veteran McGinnis also played brilliantly, it is the Cleveland Cavaliers who are in trouble again.
Mike. Brown couldn't stand, let Varejao and LeBron. James again.
Zhou Lin and Herman were only 1 minute late, but James scored 6 points with consecutive free throws, and James' touch began to recover in this game. When Herman took a step, he directly It was a field goal.
But the Bobcats lost their touch at this stage, Raymond Felton, Zhou Lin, and Brezek collectively misfired.
The Cavaliers played a 15-5 offensive wave in the middle and late part of the second quarter to overtake the score, and at the end of the second quarter, they led the Bobcats by 49 points 42-7.
When James can make those mid-range and long-range shots with a regular shooting percentage, how the players should defend is a huge problem facing the Bobcats.
At the beginning of the second half, the camera swept over the Bobcats' young players, especially Zhou Lin and Brandon Roy, and stayed for a long time.
周林半场比赛5中2只得到5分2助攻还有3次失误,布兰登.罗伊得到9分。
"Both Zhou Lin and Brandon Roy have the potential to become league stars in the future, but for now, they are indeed not at the same level as James, step by step. This is what a player needs to do. In the second half In the competition, I hope Zhou Lin can perform brilliantly."
The camera shrouded Zhou Lin's body for 5 seconds.
As the team's leading scorer and assists leader, Zhou Lin was not qualified in the first half.
Duan Ran also said: "Young players also grow up under pressure. For Zhou Lin, it is impossible for us to ask him to score 20+ points and add 7 or 8 assists in every game. After all, he is the first rookie. year."
"Brother, don't be too nervous. I believe you can do well. You need to use more shots to get the touch. Don't be timid because you care too much about winning or losing. If you come here, you are already a winner."
Gerald Wallace, who was wearing protective boots, was also present. When Zhou Lin was on the sidelines, Gerald Wallace did not forget to encourage Zhou Lin.
As soon as the third quarter came up, the Cavaliers continued their previous suppression of the Bobcats.
At the beginning of the third quarter, Zhou Lin tried two outside shots and missed all of them. In this game, all four three-pointers were lost.
What made the fans even more frustrating was that the other main players of the team were not online, and it seemed that Zhou Lin had infected them all.
LeBron James is leading the team to continuously play an excellent offensive rhythm, and the score is still widening.
A difference of 10 to 15 points.
In the third quarter, the Charlotte Bobcats scored only 12 points, while the Cleveland Cavaliers scored 29 points.
After the third quarter, 78-54.
The 24-point difference is too shocking.
Many Charlotte fans have begun to be disappointed. At the end of the third quarter, a large part of the fans have left the stadium.
It seems that the Bobcats' defeat has been set.
Going to Cleveland with a 1-3 disadvantage is probably a close call.
But no one will scold this group of young players, because they have already set many different records for the team and the NBA.
LeBron James, who has scored 26 points and 9 assists in the three quarters, made 7 of 3 three-pointers in this game, breaking the embarrassment of the previous game. The next fourth quarter was almost reduced to garbage time.
In the semi-finals of the playoffs, he was behind by 24 points and only had one quarter left. In this situation, even if Jordan returned to his peak and returned to the court, it would be impossible to recover.
"Coach Bickerstaff, can you let me play for a while?" Zhou Lin didn't want to give up like this: "Try again."
No matter how confident the coach is, he is almost desperate when there is a contrast of 12 points with 24 minutes left in the game.
Of course, after losing the game tonight, the Bobcats still have a sigh of relief and need to be ready to go to Cleveland to fight for their lives.
"……All right."
Coach Bickerstaff thought for a while and said, "Do your best to make the score look better."
Zhou Lin scored only 7 points in the three quarters of this game, only 9 of 3 shots, and only scored 1 3-pointer. His performance was really not good enough, but as a rookie under such great pressure, Bickerstaff could not blame him.
"What, this is garbage time, the Bobcats haven't given up yet!"
When he saw that the Bobcats didn't take the lead in putting on the bench, Mike Brown was a little surprised.
According to the rules of the rivers and lakes, if the opponent did not replace the lineup, it meant that the opponent did not admit defeat, and he could not let the main force rest on his side, so he must continue to fight. This is respect for the opponent.
Not only Mike Brown, but also local American football commentators and commentators on CCTV-5 also felt that it was really unrealistic for the Bobcats to recover 24 points.
The score difference of 24 points in the fourth quarter is almost reduced to garbage time in any game.
The current main players of the Cavaliers probably want to play for another 2 minutes, walk through the field, maintain the score difference, and then sit on the sidelines to rest, and then fly back to Cleveland to prepare for the fifth game.
In this mood, the Cleveland Cavaliers seem a little loose.
As a recruit for the playoffs, the Charlotte Bobcats did not train. Even if the score difference is 30 points, the rookies still want to play. After all, this situation is also an experience for a player. , a kind of experience.
In this comparison, the enthusiasm of Charlotte's players is reflected.
As soon as the game started, a pass from Larry Hughes was judged by Matt Carroll, and he directly intercepted it. Zhou Lin took the lead and quickly made the pass.
Carroll put the ball into Zhou Lin's hands, and Zhou Lin immediately dunked.
Although LeBron James behind him came after him, he didn't take the risk to block the shot.
LeBron James wanted to rush after Zhou Lin scored, but he was intercepted by Zhou Lin and Carol. Carroll was slightly suspected of fouling the ball, but the referee did not call it. James spread his hands to find the referee.
The referee squinted his eyes and did not respond.
Anyway, let's play at home, let's let them chase points, after all, we can't lose face.
The ball turned into Zhou Lin's hands again, and Larry Hughes rushed over. Zhou Lin adjusted a small step back, took aim, and then shot outside the three-point line.
With a bang, the three-point net is crisp and clean!
Zhou Lin couldn't help but waved his fist.
Finally, the shackles were opened.
"Zhou Lin scored five points in a row. In less than one and a half minutes of the game, the Bobcats chased back by five points. Now the score difference has been narrowed to less than 1 and a half points."
Xu Ji was happy to become Zhou Lin and said: "I can see Zhou Lin's reluctance to admit defeat. As a Chinese player, Zhou Lin has played with style."
The current Zhou Lin also seems to have entered a state of extreme concentration. Except for the competition, no external interference seems to be able to affect Zhou Lin.
James stepped back, preparing to respond to Zhou Lin's three-pointer, but Zhou Lin's judgment was very accurate, and he leaped high, actually blocking LeBron James from the side.
Moreover, when returning to his own half, in a three-on-two situation, Zhou Lin did not choose to pass the ball or go inside, and shot a three-pointer.
Like a Changhong penetrating the sun, like a hundred steps piercing Yang, Zhou Lin's three-pointer was put into the basket impartially.
Zhou Lin scored 8 points in a row, and the Bobcats also chased the score to 62-78.
There are still 10 minutes in the game, and the 16-point difference seems to be more feasible.
Mike Brown could no longer bear the atmosphere and rhythm of the team at this moment.
"The game is not over until the last second of the game. Even if the opponent raises the white flag, it doesn't mean the game is over. The Bobcats are a very young team, which means they like to play emotional balls. We We must find a way to limit Zhou Lin and find a way to stop the Bobcats from being hot."
Mike Brown shouted loudly.
"Good job!"
All the players and coaches came up to high-five Zhou Lin.
Zhou Lin scored [-] points in a row, like a doctor trying to pull the Bobcats from the brink of death to the point where they can be rescued.
"Don't give up, brothers!"
There seemed to be flames burning in Zhou Lin's eyes.
"Zhou Lin ignited the Charlotte Bobcats, and now he feels hot, and maybe some miracles will happen." Duan Ran said excitedly: "Maybe we will witness an epic reversal."
"Well, then I will borrow your good words!" Xu Jicheng said with a smile.
And A. Smith on TNT also said: "Zhou Lin's palm is like a flame, it's too hot. His three-pointers will scare the Cavaliers. His three-pointers in these few games The distribution of the ball is not stable, especially in this game, which is a common problem of young players, but the Cavaliers gave Zhou Lin the opportunity to develop his touch and emotions, and they will pay a huge price for this laxity."
"Defense, defend!"
"Defense!"
The fans at the scene have begun to help the team and use the sound to motivate the players. Those fans who have not left the field early are also a valuable asset for Charlotte's home court.
"I'm coming, let me guard LeBron!"
Zhou Lin seems to have such a breath in his chest now, which makes Zhou Lin feel that he can beat any player, even if you are LeBron James!
Zhou Lin posted very well, he and Herman's defense is different, Zhou Lin's speed is faster, so Zhou Lin can take a more aggressive defensive approach, and now if the Bobcats want to win, then they need to use more radical approach.
Zhou Lin has changed, LeBron James has such a feeling.
Zhou Lin before, always had a feeling of awe towards James in his heart. Even though the Bobcats won the Cavaliers in the last game, Zhou Lin just avoided fighting James and did not try to challenge James face to face.
Perhaps it is because of memory, James is a historical player, powerful, far better than himself, and the data panel, James' data is indeed much higher than his own, because I know it, so I am afraid.
But now Zhou Lin began to gradually let go of the burden.
James is not necessarily invincible. Even if James can beat himself 99 times, he will definitely win once.
LeBron James felt that Zhou Lin was a bit like a piece of brown candy now, and he followed him at all costs. Facing the approaching time, James had no choice but to take a step back and choose a three-point shot.
Zhou Lin jumped up high, and three fingertips actually touched the basketball.
Second cover!
Even Zhou Lin didn't expect that he really covered LeBron James head-on, and the image of LeBron James as an insurmountable mountain completely collapsed in Zhou Lin's heart.
LeBron James took the ball and wanted to make a move, but unfortunately 24 seconds were up.
Zhou Lin, the Bobcats defended successfully again!
Mike Brown on the side stomped his feet anxiously.
Redmond Felton came over with a dribble and gave it to Zhou Lin at halftime. Zhou Lin's touch was hot, and it made no sense not to give it to Zhou Lin.
And he himself ran to a corner and squatted, ready to catch and shoot.
While dribbling the ball, Zhou Lin observed the surrounding situation.
Zhou Lin felt as if his body had been opened up to Ren Du's two veins, relaxed but full of motivation, and the muscle tension caused by the tension had gradually disappeared.
Zhou Lin greeted, and Emeka Okafor came up to pick and roll. The moment he used Okafor to pick and roll, Zhou Lin turned around, took advantage of the gap to reach the inside line, switched to his left hand, and successfully picked the basket.
"Is Zhou Lin crazy?"
The fans at the scene were also excited, and Barkley made a salute in the live broadcast room: "I'm sorry, Zhou, now you are a god descending from the earth."
At the end of the third quarter, Barkley sprayed Zhou Lin to nothing.
Barkley is like this. When you play well, you will spray without reservation, but once you play well, your face changes extremely quickly.
"No one can restrict Zhou Lin?"
Mike Brown roared loudly.
In just 3 minutes, Zhou Lin scored 10 points alone, and the Cavaliers have not scored yet. A 10-0, the original 24-point lead suddenly shrank to 14 points. Coach Mike Brown can't accept it.
"Defend, defend, defend!"
Under the guidance of the on-site sound control, the voice of the Bobcats calling for defense became thicker and more orderly.
In the fourth quarter, the Cavaliers, who fell into a scoring drought, finally opened up on the offensive end. Drew Gooden hit Matt Carroll inside for a 2+1.
It's just that in the face of boos all over the sky, Drew Gooden's extra penalty failed to hit.
The Charlotte Bobcats also changed their players and put up the decisive lineup. Matt Carroll and Brezek were replaced by Brandon Roy and Walter Herman.
64-80, the Bobcats are still 16 points behind, but now the momentum is on the side of the Charlotte Bobcats.
Brandon Roy came up again and replaced Zhou Lin in the current lineup. Zhou Lin showed his sharpness in the fourth quarter as a big core. The Cavaliers are about to double-team Zhou Lin, and Brandon Den Roy's dominance with the ball also allowed Zhou Lin to breathe a little easier.
Brandon Roy also seemed to be infected by Zhou Lin. Facing Larry Hughes' defense, he shot extremely decisively. He hit the neck of the basket with a three-pointer, and then fell into the basket twice , this is the reward of perseverance.
67-80, the Cleveland Cavaliers' advantage is only 13 points left.
And LeBron James finally scored in the fourth quarter. Facing Herman's defense, LeBron James made an emergency stop jumper after breaking through to score for the team.
But before LeBron James came back to his senses, Zhou Lin had already dunked on his own basket. At the moment James hit a jumper, Zhou Lin started running to the frontcourt, and Okafor scored The quarterback passed the pass to Zhou Lin and scored 2 points with ease.
This was a cooperation completed by Zhou Lin relying on his consciousness and his team.
69-82, still a 13-point difference.
"Zhou Lin in the fourth quarter, his consciousness and fighting will are too terrifying!"
At this moment, a small number of Charlotte Bobcats fans have returned for the second time after leaving the arena.
And when they came back, Zhou Lin, the core of the Bobcats, showed a completely different fighting spirit from before.
LeBron James has changed the way he looks at Zhou Lin now. If this continues, it is very likely that the Cavaliers will be reversed. If 24 points are reversed, then James and his Cleveland Cavaliers will also be nailed to the pillar of shame.
Larry Hughes finally made a 3-pointer on behalf of the Cleveland Cavaliers, but the response from the Bobcats was even more intense. Zhou Lin did not choose to attack hard in front of Zhan, but he has already attracted In addition to James, at least 2 or 3 players have noticed.
Breaking through the ball and hitting the ground in the pick-and-roll, Zhou Lin once again turned into a pie-making master in the next 4 minutes of the game and sent out 4 assists.
Able to score and pass, Zhou Lin in the fourth quarter showed his characteristics to the fullest.
比赛时间剩下3分23秒,在布兰登.罗伊突破成功打成2+1之后,山猫队终于是将比分追到了只差8分。
82-90.
Mike Brown called a timeout.
"The only requirement is to hold on to the victory and stop giving open three-pointers. Drew, you and Zdrunas protect the backcourt rebounds and don't lose the frontcourt rebounds."
Whether they win or lose this game, it is a heavy blow to the somewhat proud Cavaliers.
The signal sent seems to be that the Cavaliers are not that strong and the Charlotte Bobcats are not that weak.
"We did a good job. With an 8-point difference and a good defense, we have every chance to even out or even overtake."
After LeBron James returned to the battleground, he still assumed the heavy responsibility of the leader. He directly broke through Herman's defense, faced Okafor's guard, and succeeded in dunking with force.
And Zhou Lin, who hadn't shot for a while, saw James take a small step back when the ball was in his hand, 45 meter away from the 1° three-point line on the outside, and stepped on the ball. Defend yourself from the three-point line.
"The distance of this three-pointer should be more than 8 meters."
"That's true too! Zhou Lin is really confident in the fourth quarter!"
"The cast is crazy. I can only say that even James couldn't stop Zhou Lin's outburst."
"Currently Zhou Lin made 3 of 3 three-pointers in a single quarter, and his shooting percentage in the fourth quarter is still 100%. He has scored 13 points in a single quarter, and now he has scored 20 points."
The CCTV reporters didn't know how to praise Zhou Lin anymore, so they could only repeat the madness and outbursts.
James also showed a helpless look when he saw Zhou Lin hit a three-pointer from such a distance.
This kind of feeling, I really can't defend myself!
As the game continued, Varejao from the Cavaliers received James' inside pass and wanted to dunk the ball directly, but unexpectedly, Zhou Lin rushed into the inside line and slapped the ball away!
And Zhou Lin also let out a rare roar!
"Zhou Lin is really everywhere in the audience. He hasn't rested in the fourth quarter yet."
"Young man, don't rest. Didn't you notice that Zhou Lin now has murderous eyes, as if he wants to eat people."
At the end of the third quarter, Xu Jicheng and Duan Ran originally thought it would be a massacre match, which was not interesting, but they didn't expect that in the fourth quarter, the suspense was abruptly brought back, and ah, the crucial week Lin, as if awakened.
Too much face to the Chinese.
In the playoffs, if a rookie player can compete with a top five MVP superstar in the league without falling behind, even Yao Ming will find it difficult to do so.
This is another successful defensive round, and the Bobcats have the possibility of catching up with the score again.
This time, Zhou Lin stuffed Raymond Felton on the outside. The ball was thrown in. The score was forced to close to 4 points. Unfortunately, the ball spun around the basket and fell down. .
Drew Gooden grabs the rebound.
The game time has entered within 2 minutes, this round can be said to be crucial.
Zhou Lin took a look at Okafor, and the two fought back on the spot. Although they failed to steal the ball, Drew Gooden's hasty pass was seen through by Brandon Roy, and it was a direct attack. Steal, and at this moment Zhou Lin came out from the inside. Brandon Roy didn't take credit, and directly gave the ball to Zhou Lin. Zhou Lin caught the ball and made a shooting posture at the top of the arc. Larry Roy Hughes was hit.
The referee's whistle fell accurately, and after Zhou Lin was fouled, he took advantage of the opportunity to throw the basketball, and the basketball hit the black frame on the backboard impartially, hitting the top of the arc.
3+1!
The Bobcats' bench all stood up, shaking towels one by one, as if the game had been won.
"Whoo~"
Zhou Lin stood on the free throw line.
The sound of the audience was completely silent after being signaled by someone, and even the children covered their mouths.
There was a swish, an incomparably crisp sound of bag dropping.
Let the fans in the audience go crazy again!
"It's amazing, it's really amazing!" There was no better adjective for the commentary.
Duan Randao: "So far, Zhou Lin has scored 17 points in the fourth quarter, but in the first three quarters, Zhou Lin scored a total of 7 points, and so far, Zhou Lin's shooting percentage is 6 of 6. , 4 of 4 three-pointers."
"We are witnessing a historic game. If the Bobcats can win this game, it will definitely be recorded in history!"
1 minutes and 23 seconds, 86-90.
This quarter has been chased for a full 20 points.
"Defense, defend!"
The current Cavaliers players are probably deluded in their hearts, and they seem to have become unable to play, and the basket that was originally as wide as the ocean has now become as big as the eye of a needle.
After Mike Brown's timeout, LeBron James rushed into the interior after getting rid of it. If the ball was scored, the game would almost be over.
Raymond Felton, the shortest player on the court, suddenly appeared in front of LeBron James to block the hole.
James knocked Felton down and put the ball in!
The referee whistles!
Everyone present is waiting for a result.
Is it an offensive foul or a defensive foul 2+1.
Now there are only 61 seconds left in the game. If it is announced that the ball is 2+1, the point difference will be pulled to 7 points with a high probability. Then it will take 3 offensive rounds to tie the game. If it is an offensive foul, So with a 4-point difference, the Bobcats have the opportunity to tie or even overtake in regular time.
The penalty given by the referee Crawford on duty is: offensive foul.
Raymond Felton stopped before James.
But Mike Brown quit. He asked to review the video. He is the head coach at this point in the game, so he has the right to ask for it.
Looking back at the video, it was almost frame by frame, and Raymond Felton did stand in position before James.
The verdict was upheld, and there were cheers at the scene!
James tossed the headband aside in frustration.
Bobcats players all praised Raymond Felton for his bravery.
With 61 seconds and a gap of 4 points, the game time is still sufficient. Bernie Bickerstaff arranged a tactic in which Zhou Lin responded near the free throw line and dominated the ball.
In front of Zhou Lin, apart from James, there were several other players staring at him.
Zhou Lin really went crazy!
The ball was sent directly to Zhou Lin. James lowered his center of gravity and only gave Zhou Lin less than half an arm's reach. He couldn't give Zhou Lin a chance to shoot a long three-pointer.
Emeka Okafor came up and made a handoff. The ball was spun and passed to Zhou Lin. At this moment, Brandon Roy borrowed several screens and came out from the inside.
The moment Zhou Lin gave the ball, he also blocked it with his body. Brandon Roy caught the ball and shot directly.
Swish!
"Brandon Roy, it's Roy, Zhou Lin's best helper! He hit a 3-pointer!"
Duan Ran became excited, but Xu Jicheng reminded: "It seems to be two points."
And through the replay, the referee confirmed that Brandon Roy's 3-pointer stepped on the line.
"Hey, it's a pity, the meaning of 3 points and 2 points is still much different."
One is 88-90 and the other is 89-90. Although it doesn't seem to matter much, there are only 41 seconds left in the game.
Every 1 point is extremely precious!
If there is a difference of 1 point, as long as 3 points are not given, it can basically be resolved in one round.
And the difference is 2 points. As long as the opponent scores a goal, it will take two rounds to chase the points.
Mike Brown immediately called a timeout, arranging that this might be the last round of offense.
And the possession of the ball in this round was given to James for no reason. James pressed the time almost to 24 seconds before he did it.
As Bickerstaff expected, James chose to break through. After all, 3 points and 2 points are the same for the current situation.
James rushed in, and Herman was on the defense. James made a sudden stop and retreated, and Herman rushed forward.
James confronted Herman in the air, then threw the ball.
The referee blows his whistle, signaling a foul.
And it was an uncontroversial penalty, and even the referee was reluctant to watch the video.
Fortunately, the ball spun around and didn't go in.
2 free throws, as long as James makes two free throws, then the Bobcats will be completely passive.
"The Charlotte Bobcats home basket is going to help us."
Zhou Lin walked over, smiled at James and said, "You can't make the shot!"
James glanced at Zhou Lin and replied: "I will make the shot, and I will leave Charlotte with a free throw with victory."
"Make the loudest noise!"
On one side, Gerald Wallace stood up and shouted loudly to the fans behind him.
And the fans were also very face-saving, booing bursts when James made free throws.
James closed his eyes, then took a few shots, threw it out, and glared at Zhou Lin by the way.
Charlotte's rim, this time, really helped the Bobcats, and after three or four turns on the rim, James' free throw fell out.
"Whoo~"
The Bobcats are still alive!
At least there is a perfect chance.
James adjusted his breath and stumbled into the basket for the second free throw.
"pause!"
Bernie Bickerstaff used the last timeout.
"Give the ball to Zhou Lin."
This is not true. In the fourth quarter, Zhou Lin made 4 of 4 three-pointers, which was the undisputed best shot choice.
There are still 20 seconds left. It is best to make a shot. If you can’t make a shot, you can only grab a foul, but that is probably a close call.
Brezek replaced Herman and went up as a high point support.
The ball was given to Brezek at the first time, and Brezek stood still to protect the ball and waited for other players to come and get it. Zhou Lin got a continuous off-ball screen from his teammates, so he detoured the line to receive the ball. to the ball.
"Hey, open the space first!"
"I'll defend him alone!"
James chose to defend Zhou Lin one-on-one. After all, Zhou Lin has sent 11 assists in this game, which is really scary.
Zhou Lin posted by James was deadly, and then Okafor and Brezek came up and made a solid double-sided pick-and-roll.
Even Big Z Ilgauskas rushed outside. Zhou Lin didn't hesitate, he was three points behind, and he wouldn't run out of game time.
And this night, Zhou Lin really felt like a god descended from the world. Facing the 2-foot-[-] Ilgauskas, Zhou Lin raised the arc, and the basketball almost passed through less than [-] centimeters above Big Z's fingertips.
As if there was navigation, the ball fell into the basket again!
"Zhou Lin, Zhou Lin made a three-pointer. With 7.2 seconds left in the game, the Bobcats evened the score. You must know that when entering the fourth quarter, the Bobcats trailed by a full 24 points. Our Chinese player Zhou Lin scored 20 points in the fourth quarter and made 3 of 5 5-pointers!"
"No one would have thought that the Bobcats could make such an astonishing comeback. With 7.2 seconds left in the game, the Bobcats defended well and the game could enter overtime!"
The timeouts on both sides were all used up, so the Cavaliers could only serve from the backcourt. LeBron dribbled the ball to signal all the players to go away, and Zhou Lin also signaled Herman to defend James.
After halftime, James started to sprint. Zhou Lin stuck to him tightly. He still wanted to go inside, just to make kills or score 2 points. There was no need to shoot a three-pointer.
However, the three on Charlotte's side also completely stared at LeBron James. James finally chose to pass the ball to Larry Hughes on the outside. Larry Hughes shot a three-pointer crookedly. .
With a sound of iron, the game entered overtime!
"If I hadn't seen it with my own eyes, I couldn't believe it. A rookie team that has just entered the league for three years not only made it to the playoffs, but also played against the second-ranked Cavaliers in the East. This is a game. The hearty game also allowed us to see what it means to come back from a desperate situation, a 24-point difference, and it will be gone in the blink of an eye!"
In overtime, the Cavaliers looked more dull than regular time.
The bobcats, which had the advantage in momentum, finally took the lead in the overtime. Although Zhou Lin finally missed a three-pointer in the overtime after 5 consecutive hits, he made a three-pointer in the last 25 seconds of the overtime. Hitting the seventh three-pointer of the game, it can be regarded as completely holding the game firmly in the palm of his hand.
In the end, the Charlotte Bobcats won 101-95 in overtime.
In this campaign, Zhou Lin worked hard in the second half. In the case of 9 of 3 in the first three quarters, he was 10 of 9 in the fourth quarter and overtime.
全场以19中12的命中率砍下32分13助攻7篮板4次封盖,其中2次是送给了勒布朗.詹姆斯,另外两次则是给到了瓦莱乔和德鲁.古登。
In addition, Brandon Roy also contributed 4 three-pointers and scored 21 points.
Although Okafor scored only 7 points, he grabbed 20 rebounds and blocked 6 shots.
There is also Raymond Felton, who made a key offensive foul, with 12 points and 3 assists.
For the Cavaliers, James also scored 32 points, 7 assists and 12 rebounds, but failed to hold on to the victory.
The two teams will take a 2-2 game to play the battle of Tianwangshan at the Quicken Loans Center, home of the Cleveland Cavaliers.
"It's a crazy game!"
Zhou Lin was interviewed by reporters on the sidelines, and he also said that his performance today was incredible.
"Of course, this is what we deserved. We did not give up hope and finally won. This is a difficult but milestone game, and it is the same for me!"
"Hey, Zhou is an omnipotent guy, he beat LeBron James!"
"He feels hot, let me put out the fire for him!"
Veteran McGinnis first poured a drink on Zhou Lin's head, followed by Okafor, then Felton... Even Brandon Roy joined in!
(End of this chapter)
"I know, I have to admit that on some nights, my hands won't be great, and the Bobcats have played an effective defense, but I promise the next game, there will be changes."
LeBron James was interviewed after losing G3, put down this sentence in a hurry, and ended the interview.
When Larry Hughes was interviewed by reporters, he couldn't help complaining when he was asked about his sluggish state: "Many of the Bobcats' defensive actions are unconventional, but many referees didn't blow it. Yes, for the away game The team is not fair."
Fans of the Cleveland Cavaliers and the Charlotte Bobcats also unsurprisingly started a mutual spray mode on the Internet.
'Damn, bobcats are a dirty team, did the refs gamble?'
'The whole court is black whistle, the league is fixing the game'
'LeBron is a jerk'
'Cavs weren't as clean as they were in Cleveland'
The scene of James being knocked to the ground by the defense today is also continuously played on the sports video website.
"It's nothing. For us, it's pediatrics. Real men are never afraid of physical contact."
Joe Dumars, once one of the leaders of the Pistons Bad Boys, said bluntly: "You can go and look at the series between us and the Bulls. Jordan received much more advanced treatment than James. Defense won The championship James needs to accept this test, and the fans should complain less, a game with collisions is a basketball game."
Magic Johnson said: "This game is a bit like the Eastern Conference semifinals. The Bobcats won a game with their targeted defense. This wave, I am on the side of the Bobcats. I like to watch competitive play." the match of."
……
The next day, the fourth game between the Charlotte Bobcats and the Cleveland Cavaliers in the Eastern Conference semifinals started again.
Before the game, LeBron James specially practiced three-point shooting, hoping to change.
This game for the Charlotte Bobcats will definitely continue the defensive strategy of the previous game. Even, while implementing the tactics of the previous game, the defensive intensity of the previous game will be improved.
"Guys, go to Cleveland with 2-2!"
夏洛特山猫队这边气势正盛,势必要拿下G4,毕竟1-3和2-2的心态完全是两回事。
Game start.
The Charlotte Bobcats and Cleveland Cavaliers have the same lineups as in the previous game.
The Cleveland Cavaliers also made adjustments, attacking the inside first in the opening stage. In the last game, Big Z Ilkeskas only took 5 shots against the shorter center Okafor, who was shorter than himself. Scored 9 points and 11 rebounds, and in this game, Mike Brown started to make a fuss about this group of matchups in the opening stage.
Facing Irkeskas' big hook, Okafor could only watch.
The Cavaliers scored first.
On the Bobcats side, the first to respond was Raymond Felton, who fired from the outside and hit a three-pointer.
In this round of the series, Raymond Felton's shooting percentage was actually not bad, but under the control of Bernie Bickerstaff, Brandon Roy and Zhou Lin dominated took most of the ball.
On the Cavaliers' side, Larry Hughes also started scoring mode. Facing Brandon Roy's defense, he broke through and leaned on the latter's body to make a high hit.
In the first quarter of the game, LeBron James was mobilizing his teammates more.
This is also a change in the Cavaliers' style of play against the Bobcats. The Cavaliers need a second and third player who can score independently to stand up.
And LeBron James, in the entire first quarter, only made 2 of 1 shots.
On the premise that Raymond Felton felt good today, the Bobcats also gave more ball rights to the point guard.
Xiaogangpao performed well, 7 of 4 in the first quarter, 10 points and 2 assists in a single quarter, helping the team support the first quarter.
Zhou Lin missed 1 shot in the first quarter and only had 1 assist and 2 rebounds.
The team trailed by one point 24-25.
CCTV reporter Xu Jicheng said: "In this first quarter, Zhou Lin and James, as the main players of the two sides, only took one shot and two shots respectively, which is not like the regular first quarter of the two teams. It’s the players, and the coaches on both sides are also fighting wits and courage, and the players playing like this must be the arrangement of the coaches.”
If James can be redeemed, no matter if it is any player of the Bobcats, it is worth it, but James's first quarter decentralization is only temporary. In the transition period, Brandon Roy played an efficient Scoring efficiency, plus veteran McGinnis also played brilliantly, it is the Cleveland Cavaliers who are in trouble again.
Mike. Brown couldn't stand, let Varejao and LeBron. James again.
Zhou Lin and Herman were only 1 minute late, but James scored 6 points with consecutive free throws, and James' touch began to recover in this game. When Herman took a step, he directly It was a field goal.
But the Bobcats lost their touch at this stage, Raymond Felton, Zhou Lin, and Brezek collectively misfired.
The Cavaliers played a 15-5 offensive wave in the middle and late part of the second quarter to overtake the score, and at the end of the second quarter, they led the Bobcats by 49 points 42-7.
When James can make those mid-range and long-range shots with a regular shooting percentage, how the players should defend is a huge problem facing the Bobcats.
At the beginning of the second half, the camera swept over the Bobcats' young players, especially Zhou Lin and Brandon Roy, and stayed for a long time.
周林半场比赛5中2只得到5分2助攻还有3次失误,布兰登.罗伊得到9分。
"Both Zhou Lin and Brandon Roy have the potential to become league stars in the future, but for now, they are indeed not at the same level as James, step by step. This is what a player needs to do. In the second half In the competition, I hope Zhou Lin can perform brilliantly."
The camera shrouded Zhou Lin's body for 5 seconds.
As the team's leading scorer and assists leader, Zhou Lin was not qualified in the first half.
Duan Ran also said: "Young players also grow up under pressure. For Zhou Lin, it is impossible for us to ask him to score 20+ points and add 7 or 8 assists in every game. After all, he is the first rookie. year."
"Brother, don't be too nervous. I believe you can do well. You need to use more shots to get the touch. Don't be timid because you care too much about winning or losing. If you come here, you are already a winner."
Gerald Wallace, who was wearing protective boots, was also present. When Zhou Lin was on the sidelines, Gerald Wallace did not forget to encourage Zhou Lin.
As soon as the third quarter came up, the Cavaliers continued their previous suppression of the Bobcats.
At the beginning of the third quarter, Zhou Lin tried two outside shots and missed all of them. In this game, all four three-pointers were lost.
What made the fans even more frustrating was that the other main players of the team were not online, and it seemed that Zhou Lin had infected them all.
LeBron James is leading the team to continuously play an excellent offensive rhythm, and the score is still widening.
A difference of 10 to 15 points.
In the third quarter, the Charlotte Bobcats scored only 12 points, while the Cleveland Cavaliers scored 29 points.
After the third quarter, 78-54.
The 24-point difference is too shocking.
Many Charlotte fans have begun to be disappointed. At the end of the third quarter, a large part of the fans have left the stadium.
It seems that the Bobcats' defeat has been set.
Going to Cleveland with a 1-3 disadvantage is probably a close call.
But no one will scold this group of young players, because they have already set many different records for the team and the NBA.
LeBron James, who has scored 26 points and 9 assists in the three quarters, made 7 of 3 three-pointers in this game, breaking the embarrassment of the previous game. The next fourth quarter was almost reduced to garbage time.
In the semi-finals of the playoffs, he was behind by 24 points and only had one quarter left. In this situation, even if Jordan returned to his peak and returned to the court, it would be impossible to recover.
"Coach Bickerstaff, can you let me play for a while?" Zhou Lin didn't want to give up like this: "Try again."
No matter how confident the coach is, he is almost desperate when there is a contrast of 12 points with 24 minutes left in the game.
Of course, after losing the game tonight, the Bobcats still have a sigh of relief and need to be ready to go to Cleveland to fight for their lives.
"……All right."
Coach Bickerstaff thought for a while and said, "Do your best to make the score look better."
Zhou Lin scored only 7 points in the three quarters of this game, only 9 of 3 shots, and only scored 1 3-pointer. His performance was really not good enough, but as a rookie under such great pressure, Bickerstaff could not blame him.
"What, this is garbage time, the Bobcats haven't given up yet!"
When he saw that the Bobcats didn't take the lead in putting on the bench, Mike Brown was a little surprised.
According to the rules of the rivers and lakes, if the opponent did not replace the lineup, it meant that the opponent did not admit defeat, and he could not let the main force rest on his side, so he must continue to fight. This is respect for the opponent.
Not only Mike Brown, but also local American football commentators and commentators on CCTV-5 also felt that it was really unrealistic for the Bobcats to recover 24 points.
The score difference of 24 points in the fourth quarter is almost reduced to garbage time in any game.
The current main players of the Cavaliers probably want to play for another 2 minutes, walk through the field, maintain the score difference, and then sit on the sidelines to rest, and then fly back to Cleveland to prepare for the fifth game.
In this mood, the Cleveland Cavaliers seem a little loose.
As a recruit for the playoffs, the Charlotte Bobcats did not train. Even if the score difference is 30 points, the rookies still want to play. After all, this situation is also an experience for a player. , a kind of experience.
In this comparison, the enthusiasm of Charlotte's players is reflected.
As soon as the game started, a pass from Larry Hughes was judged by Matt Carroll, and he directly intercepted it. Zhou Lin took the lead and quickly made the pass.
Carroll put the ball into Zhou Lin's hands, and Zhou Lin immediately dunked.
Although LeBron James behind him came after him, he didn't take the risk to block the shot.
LeBron James wanted to rush after Zhou Lin scored, but he was intercepted by Zhou Lin and Carol. Carroll was slightly suspected of fouling the ball, but the referee did not call it. James spread his hands to find the referee.
The referee squinted his eyes and did not respond.
Anyway, let's play at home, let's let them chase points, after all, we can't lose face.
The ball turned into Zhou Lin's hands again, and Larry Hughes rushed over. Zhou Lin adjusted a small step back, took aim, and then shot outside the three-point line.
With a bang, the three-point net is crisp and clean!
Zhou Lin couldn't help but waved his fist.
Finally, the shackles were opened.
"Zhou Lin scored five points in a row. In less than one and a half minutes of the game, the Bobcats chased back by five points. Now the score difference has been narrowed to less than 1 and a half points."
Xu Ji was happy to become Zhou Lin and said: "I can see Zhou Lin's reluctance to admit defeat. As a Chinese player, Zhou Lin has played with style."
The current Zhou Lin also seems to have entered a state of extreme concentration. Except for the competition, no external interference seems to be able to affect Zhou Lin.
James stepped back, preparing to respond to Zhou Lin's three-pointer, but Zhou Lin's judgment was very accurate, and he leaped high, actually blocking LeBron James from the side.
Moreover, when returning to his own half, in a three-on-two situation, Zhou Lin did not choose to pass the ball or go inside, and shot a three-pointer.
Like a Changhong penetrating the sun, like a hundred steps piercing Yang, Zhou Lin's three-pointer was put into the basket impartially.
Zhou Lin scored 8 points in a row, and the Bobcats also chased the score to 62-78.
There are still 10 minutes in the game, and the 16-point difference seems to be more feasible.
Mike Brown could no longer bear the atmosphere and rhythm of the team at this moment.
"The game is not over until the last second of the game. Even if the opponent raises the white flag, it doesn't mean the game is over. The Bobcats are a very young team, which means they like to play emotional balls. We We must find a way to limit Zhou Lin and find a way to stop the Bobcats from being hot."
Mike Brown shouted loudly.
"Good job!"
All the players and coaches came up to high-five Zhou Lin.
Zhou Lin scored [-] points in a row, like a doctor trying to pull the Bobcats from the brink of death to the point where they can be rescued.
"Don't give up, brothers!"
There seemed to be flames burning in Zhou Lin's eyes.
"Zhou Lin ignited the Charlotte Bobcats, and now he feels hot, and maybe some miracles will happen." Duan Ran said excitedly: "Maybe we will witness an epic reversal."
"Well, then I will borrow your good words!" Xu Jicheng said with a smile.
And A. Smith on TNT also said: "Zhou Lin's palm is like a flame, it's too hot. His three-pointers will scare the Cavaliers. His three-pointers in these few games The distribution of the ball is not stable, especially in this game, which is a common problem of young players, but the Cavaliers gave Zhou Lin the opportunity to develop his touch and emotions, and they will pay a huge price for this laxity."
"Defense, defend!"
"Defense!"
The fans at the scene have begun to help the team and use the sound to motivate the players. Those fans who have not left the field early are also a valuable asset for Charlotte's home court.
"I'm coming, let me guard LeBron!"
Zhou Lin seems to have such a breath in his chest now, which makes Zhou Lin feel that he can beat any player, even if you are LeBron James!
Zhou Lin posted very well, he and Herman's defense is different, Zhou Lin's speed is faster, so Zhou Lin can take a more aggressive defensive approach, and now if the Bobcats want to win, then they need to use more radical approach.
Zhou Lin has changed, LeBron James has such a feeling.
Zhou Lin before, always had a feeling of awe towards James in his heart. Even though the Bobcats won the Cavaliers in the last game, Zhou Lin just avoided fighting James and did not try to challenge James face to face.
Perhaps it is because of memory, James is a historical player, powerful, far better than himself, and the data panel, James' data is indeed much higher than his own, because I know it, so I am afraid.
But now Zhou Lin began to gradually let go of the burden.
James is not necessarily invincible. Even if James can beat himself 99 times, he will definitely win once.
LeBron James felt that Zhou Lin was a bit like a piece of brown candy now, and he followed him at all costs. Facing the approaching time, James had no choice but to take a step back and choose a three-point shot.
Zhou Lin jumped up high, and three fingertips actually touched the basketball.
Second cover!
Even Zhou Lin didn't expect that he really covered LeBron James head-on, and the image of LeBron James as an insurmountable mountain completely collapsed in Zhou Lin's heart.
LeBron James took the ball and wanted to make a move, but unfortunately 24 seconds were up.
Zhou Lin, the Bobcats defended successfully again!
Mike Brown on the side stomped his feet anxiously.
Redmond Felton came over with a dribble and gave it to Zhou Lin at halftime. Zhou Lin's touch was hot, and it made no sense not to give it to Zhou Lin.
And he himself ran to a corner and squatted, ready to catch and shoot.
While dribbling the ball, Zhou Lin observed the surrounding situation.
Zhou Lin felt as if his body had been opened up to Ren Du's two veins, relaxed but full of motivation, and the muscle tension caused by the tension had gradually disappeared.
Zhou Lin greeted, and Emeka Okafor came up to pick and roll. The moment he used Okafor to pick and roll, Zhou Lin turned around, took advantage of the gap to reach the inside line, switched to his left hand, and successfully picked the basket.
"Is Zhou Lin crazy?"
The fans at the scene were also excited, and Barkley made a salute in the live broadcast room: "I'm sorry, Zhou, now you are a god descending from the earth."
At the end of the third quarter, Barkley sprayed Zhou Lin to nothing.
Barkley is like this. When you play well, you will spray without reservation, but once you play well, your face changes extremely quickly.
"No one can restrict Zhou Lin?"
Mike Brown roared loudly.
In just 3 minutes, Zhou Lin scored 10 points alone, and the Cavaliers have not scored yet. A 10-0, the original 24-point lead suddenly shrank to 14 points. Coach Mike Brown can't accept it.
"Defend, defend, defend!"
Under the guidance of the on-site sound control, the voice of the Bobcats calling for defense became thicker and more orderly.
In the fourth quarter, the Cavaliers, who fell into a scoring drought, finally opened up on the offensive end. Drew Gooden hit Matt Carroll inside for a 2+1.
It's just that in the face of boos all over the sky, Drew Gooden's extra penalty failed to hit.
The Charlotte Bobcats also changed their players and put up the decisive lineup. Matt Carroll and Brezek were replaced by Brandon Roy and Walter Herman.
64-80, the Bobcats are still 16 points behind, but now the momentum is on the side of the Charlotte Bobcats.
Brandon Roy came up again and replaced Zhou Lin in the current lineup. Zhou Lin showed his sharpness in the fourth quarter as a big core. The Cavaliers are about to double-team Zhou Lin, and Brandon Den Roy's dominance with the ball also allowed Zhou Lin to breathe a little easier.
Brandon Roy also seemed to be infected by Zhou Lin. Facing Larry Hughes' defense, he shot extremely decisively. He hit the neck of the basket with a three-pointer, and then fell into the basket twice , this is the reward of perseverance.
67-80, the Cleveland Cavaliers' advantage is only 13 points left.
And LeBron James finally scored in the fourth quarter. Facing Herman's defense, LeBron James made an emergency stop jumper after breaking through to score for the team.
But before LeBron James came back to his senses, Zhou Lin had already dunked on his own basket. At the moment James hit a jumper, Zhou Lin started running to the frontcourt, and Okafor scored The quarterback passed the pass to Zhou Lin and scored 2 points with ease.
This was a cooperation completed by Zhou Lin relying on his consciousness and his team.
69-82, still a 13-point difference.
"Zhou Lin in the fourth quarter, his consciousness and fighting will are too terrifying!"
At this moment, a small number of Charlotte Bobcats fans have returned for the second time after leaving the arena.
And when they came back, Zhou Lin, the core of the Bobcats, showed a completely different fighting spirit from before.
LeBron James has changed the way he looks at Zhou Lin now. If this continues, it is very likely that the Cavaliers will be reversed. If 24 points are reversed, then James and his Cleveland Cavaliers will also be nailed to the pillar of shame.
Larry Hughes finally made a 3-pointer on behalf of the Cleveland Cavaliers, but the response from the Bobcats was even more intense. Zhou Lin did not choose to attack hard in front of Zhan, but he has already attracted In addition to James, at least 2 or 3 players have noticed.
Breaking through the ball and hitting the ground in the pick-and-roll, Zhou Lin once again turned into a pie-making master in the next 4 minutes of the game and sent out 4 assists.
Able to score and pass, Zhou Lin in the fourth quarter showed his characteristics to the fullest.
比赛时间剩下3分23秒,在布兰登.罗伊突破成功打成2+1之后,山猫队终于是将比分追到了只差8分。
82-90.
Mike Brown called a timeout.
"The only requirement is to hold on to the victory and stop giving open three-pointers. Drew, you and Zdrunas protect the backcourt rebounds and don't lose the frontcourt rebounds."
Whether they win or lose this game, it is a heavy blow to the somewhat proud Cavaliers.
The signal sent seems to be that the Cavaliers are not that strong and the Charlotte Bobcats are not that weak.
"We did a good job. With an 8-point difference and a good defense, we have every chance to even out or even overtake."
After LeBron James returned to the battleground, he still assumed the heavy responsibility of the leader. He directly broke through Herman's defense, faced Okafor's guard, and succeeded in dunking with force.
And Zhou Lin, who hadn't shot for a while, saw James take a small step back when the ball was in his hand, 45 meter away from the 1° three-point line on the outside, and stepped on the ball. Defend yourself from the three-point line.
"The distance of this three-pointer should be more than 8 meters."
"That's true too! Zhou Lin is really confident in the fourth quarter!"
"The cast is crazy. I can only say that even James couldn't stop Zhou Lin's outburst."
"Currently Zhou Lin made 3 of 3 three-pointers in a single quarter, and his shooting percentage in the fourth quarter is still 100%. He has scored 13 points in a single quarter, and now he has scored 20 points."
The CCTV reporters didn't know how to praise Zhou Lin anymore, so they could only repeat the madness and outbursts.
James also showed a helpless look when he saw Zhou Lin hit a three-pointer from such a distance.
This kind of feeling, I really can't defend myself!
As the game continued, Varejao from the Cavaliers received James' inside pass and wanted to dunk the ball directly, but unexpectedly, Zhou Lin rushed into the inside line and slapped the ball away!
And Zhou Lin also let out a rare roar!
"Zhou Lin is really everywhere in the audience. He hasn't rested in the fourth quarter yet."
"Young man, don't rest. Didn't you notice that Zhou Lin now has murderous eyes, as if he wants to eat people."
At the end of the third quarter, Xu Jicheng and Duan Ran originally thought it would be a massacre match, which was not interesting, but they didn't expect that in the fourth quarter, the suspense was abruptly brought back, and ah, the crucial week Lin, as if awakened.
Too much face to the Chinese.
In the playoffs, if a rookie player can compete with a top five MVP superstar in the league without falling behind, even Yao Ming will find it difficult to do so.
This is another successful defensive round, and the Bobcats have the possibility of catching up with the score again.
This time, Zhou Lin stuffed Raymond Felton on the outside. The ball was thrown in. The score was forced to close to 4 points. Unfortunately, the ball spun around the basket and fell down. .
Drew Gooden grabs the rebound.
The game time has entered within 2 minutes, this round can be said to be crucial.
Zhou Lin took a look at Okafor, and the two fought back on the spot. Although they failed to steal the ball, Drew Gooden's hasty pass was seen through by Brandon Roy, and it was a direct attack. Steal, and at this moment Zhou Lin came out from the inside. Brandon Roy didn't take credit, and directly gave the ball to Zhou Lin. Zhou Lin caught the ball and made a shooting posture at the top of the arc. Larry Roy Hughes was hit.
The referee's whistle fell accurately, and after Zhou Lin was fouled, he took advantage of the opportunity to throw the basketball, and the basketball hit the black frame on the backboard impartially, hitting the top of the arc.
3+1!
The Bobcats' bench all stood up, shaking towels one by one, as if the game had been won.
"Whoo~"
Zhou Lin stood on the free throw line.
The sound of the audience was completely silent after being signaled by someone, and even the children covered their mouths.
There was a swish, an incomparably crisp sound of bag dropping.
Let the fans in the audience go crazy again!
"It's amazing, it's really amazing!" There was no better adjective for the commentary.
Duan Randao: "So far, Zhou Lin has scored 17 points in the fourth quarter, but in the first three quarters, Zhou Lin scored a total of 7 points, and so far, Zhou Lin's shooting percentage is 6 of 6. , 4 of 4 three-pointers."
"We are witnessing a historic game. If the Bobcats can win this game, it will definitely be recorded in history!"
1 minutes and 23 seconds, 86-90.
This quarter has been chased for a full 20 points.
"Defense, defend!"
The current Cavaliers players are probably deluded in their hearts, and they seem to have become unable to play, and the basket that was originally as wide as the ocean has now become as big as the eye of a needle.
After Mike Brown's timeout, LeBron James rushed into the interior after getting rid of it. If the ball was scored, the game would almost be over.
Raymond Felton, the shortest player on the court, suddenly appeared in front of LeBron James to block the hole.
James knocked Felton down and put the ball in!
The referee whistles!
Everyone present is waiting for a result.
Is it an offensive foul or a defensive foul 2+1.
Now there are only 61 seconds left in the game. If it is announced that the ball is 2+1, the point difference will be pulled to 7 points with a high probability. Then it will take 3 offensive rounds to tie the game. If it is an offensive foul, So with a 4-point difference, the Bobcats have the opportunity to tie or even overtake in regular time.
The penalty given by the referee Crawford on duty is: offensive foul.
Raymond Felton stopped before James.
But Mike Brown quit. He asked to review the video. He is the head coach at this point in the game, so he has the right to ask for it.
Looking back at the video, it was almost frame by frame, and Raymond Felton did stand in position before James.
The verdict was upheld, and there were cheers at the scene!
James tossed the headband aside in frustration.
Bobcats players all praised Raymond Felton for his bravery.
With 61 seconds and a gap of 4 points, the game time is still sufficient. Bernie Bickerstaff arranged a tactic in which Zhou Lin responded near the free throw line and dominated the ball.
In front of Zhou Lin, apart from James, there were several other players staring at him.
Zhou Lin really went crazy!
The ball was sent directly to Zhou Lin. James lowered his center of gravity and only gave Zhou Lin less than half an arm's reach. He couldn't give Zhou Lin a chance to shoot a long three-pointer.
Emeka Okafor came up and made a handoff. The ball was spun and passed to Zhou Lin. At this moment, Brandon Roy borrowed several screens and came out from the inside.
The moment Zhou Lin gave the ball, he also blocked it with his body. Brandon Roy caught the ball and shot directly.
Swish!
"Brandon Roy, it's Roy, Zhou Lin's best helper! He hit a 3-pointer!"
Duan Ran became excited, but Xu Jicheng reminded: "It seems to be two points."
And through the replay, the referee confirmed that Brandon Roy's 3-pointer stepped on the line.
"Hey, it's a pity, the meaning of 3 points and 2 points is still much different."
One is 88-90 and the other is 89-90. Although it doesn't seem to matter much, there are only 41 seconds left in the game.
Every 1 point is extremely precious!
If there is a difference of 1 point, as long as 3 points are not given, it can basically be resolved in one round.
And the difference is 2 points. As long as the opponent scores a goal, it will take two rounds to chase the points.
Mike Brown immediately called a timeout, arranging that this might be the last round of offense.
And the possession of the ball in this round was given to James for no reason. James pressed the time almost to 24 seconds before he did it.
As Bickerstaff expected, James chose to break through. After all, 3 points and 2 points are the same for the current situation.
James rushed in, and Herman was on the defense. James made a sudden stop and retreated, and Herman rushed forward.
James confronted Herman in the air, then threw the ball.
The referee blows his whistle, signaling a foul.
And it was an uncontroversial penalty, and even the referee was reluctant to watch the video.
Fortunately, the ball spun around and didn't go in.
2 free throws, as long as James makes two free throws, then the Bobcats will be completely passive.
"The Charlotte Bobcats home basket is going to help us."
Zhou Lin walked over, smiled at James and said, "You can't make the shot!"
James glanced at Zhou Lin and replied: "I will make the shot, and I will leave Charlotte with a free throw with victory."
"Make the loudest noise!"
On one side, Gerald Wallace stood up and shouted loudly to the fans behind him.
And the fans were also very face-saving, booing bursts when James made free throws.
James closed his eyes, then took a few shots, threw it out, and glared at Zhou Lin by the way.
Charlotte's rim, this time, really helped the Bobcats, and after three or four turns on the rim, James' free throw fell out.
"Whoo~"
The Bobcats are still alive!
At least there is a perfect chance.
James adjusted his breath and stumbled into the basket for the second free throw.
"pause!"
Bernie Bickerstaff used the last timeout.
"Give the ball to Zhou Lin."
This is not true. In the fourth quarter, Zhou Lin made 4 of 4 three-pointers, which was the undisputed best shot choice.
There are still 20 seconds left. It is best to make a shot. If you can’t make a shot, you can only grab a foul, but that is probably a close call.
Brezek replaced Herman and went up as a high point support.
The ball was given to Brezek at the first time, and Brezek stood still to protect the ball and waited for other players to come and get it. Zhou Lin got a continuous off-ball screen from his teammates, so he detoured the line to receive the ball. to the ball.
"Hey, open the space first!"
"I'll defend him alone!"
James chose to defend Zhou Lin one-on-one. After all, Zhou Lin has sent 11 assists in this game, which is really scary.
Zhou Lin posted by James was deadly, and then Okafor and Brezek came up and made a solid double-sided pick-and-roll.
Even Big Z Ilgauskas rushed outside. Zhou Lin didn't hesitate, he was three points behind, and he wouldn't run out of game time.
And this night, Zhou Lin really felt like a god descended from the world. Facing the 2-foot-[-] Ilgauskas, Zhou Lin raised the arc, and the basketball almost passed through less than [-] centimeters above Big Z's fingertips.
As if there was navigation, the ball fell into the basket again!
"Zhou Lin, Zhou Lin made a three-pointer. With 7.2 seconds left in the game, the Bobcats evened the score. You must know that when entering the fourth quarter, the Bobcats trailed by a full 24 points. Our Chinese player Zhou Lin scored 20 points in the fourth quarter and made 3 of 5 5-pointers!"
"No one would have thought that the Bobcats could make such an astonishing comeback. With 7.2 seconds left in the game, the Bobcats defended well and the game could enter overtime!"
The timeouts on both sides were all used up, so the Cavaliers could only serve from the backcourt. LeBron dribbled the ball to signal all the players to go away, and Zhou Lin also signaled Herman to defend James.
After halftime, James started to sprint. Zhou Lin stuck to him tightly. He still wanted to go inside, just to make kills or score 2 points. There was no need to shoot a three-pointer.
However, the three on Charlotte's side also completely stared at LeBron James. James finally chose to pass the ball to Larry Hughes on the outside. Larry Hughes shot a three-pointer crookedly. .
With a sound of iron, the game entered overtime!
"If I hadn't seen it with my own eyes, I couldn't believe it. A rookie team that has just entered the league for three years not only made it to the playoffs, but also played against the second-ranked Cavaliers in the East. This is a game. The hearty game also allowed us to see what it means to come back from a desperate situation, a 24-point difference, and it will be gone in the blink of an eye!"
In overtime, the Cavaliers looked more dull than regular time.
The bobcats, which had the advantage in momentum, finally took the lead in the overtime. Although Zhou Lin finally missed a three-pointer in the overtime after 5 consecutive hits, he made a three-pointer in the last 25 seconds of the overtime. Hitting the seventh three-pointer of the game, it can be regarded as completely holding the game firmly in the palm of his hand.
In the end, the Charlotte Bobcats won 101-95 in overtime.
In this campaign, Zhou Lin worked hard in the second half. In the case of 9 of 3 in the first three quarters, he was 10 of 9 in the fourth quarter and overtime.
全场以19中12的命中率砍下32分13助攻7篮板4次封盖,其中2次是送给了勒布朗.詹姆斯,另外两次则是给到了瓦莱乔和德鲁.古登。
In addition, Brandon Roy also contributed 4 three-pointers and scored 21 points.
Although Okafor scored only 7 points, he grabbed 20 rebounds and blocked 6 shots.
There is also Raymond Felton, who made a key offensive foul, with 12 points and 3 assists.
For the Cavaliers, James also scored 32 points, 7 assists and 12 rebounds, but failed to hold on to the victory.
The two teams will take a 2-2 game to play the battle of Tianwangshan at the Quicken Loans Center, home of the Cleveland Cavaliers.
"It's a crazy game!"
Zhou Lin was interviewed by reporters on the sidelines, and he also said that his performance today was incredible.
"Of course, this is what we deserved. We did not give up hope and finally won. This is a difficult but milestone game, and it is the same for me!"
"Hey, Zhou is an omnipotent guy, he beat LeBron James!"
"He feels hot, let me put out the fire for him!"
Veteran McGinnis first poured a drink on Zhou Lin's head, followed by Okafor, then Felton... Even Brandon Roy joined in!
