I really don't want to win the MVP

Chapter 117 Home vs. Eagles (5)

At this time, the Eagles had adjusted to full-court marking, and Jiang Mu once again took advantage of his body to pin Schroeder behind him and get the ball.

Just like playing Schroeder in the opening game, Jiang Mu leaned on Schroeder's body to push forward.

Doing extra movements now will consume more energy.

Schroeder stuck to Jiang Mu's body and kept reaching out his hands left and right, trying to break the ball one-on-one, but Jiang Mu used his body protection to bring the ball to the frontcourt within 8 seconds.

Jiang Mu knew that if the Knicks scored this goal, it would be equivalent to an extra layer of insurance. Even if the Eagles scored again in the next round, the Knicks would not be behind in terms of score.

Porzingis proposed a pick-and-roll, and Jiang Mu passed Schroeder's defense against Korver, and directly changed direction and broke through from the left.

But the defense inside the three-point line was very tight, so Jiang Mu had no choice but to stabilize again, and once again pulled out of the three-point line at a 45-degree angle on the left.

At this time, more than half of the 24-second attack time has passed, and Anthony is on the left.

Jiang Mu sent the ball to Anthony with a ground pass. Anthony turned around and faked a shot without shaking Bazemore. Then he crossed over and released the ball on the left side. Bazemore was still lying in front of him. .

Anthony turned around quickly after releasing the ball, and took advantage of Bazemore's unstable center of gravity to pull up and shoot.

This is Anthony's common offensive method. Perhaps due to the decline in physical strength, the goal was not scored.

The scramble for rebounds at the basket has become a mess, no one has grabbed the ball, and the ball fell near the free throw line.

Teague was the closest. Jiang Mu was just about to rush up to grab it, but suddenly found that it was difficult for him to grab it. When he turned his head, he saw Schroeder was ready to start.

Jiang Mu resolutely gave up the fight, Teague passed the ball to the front court, and Jiang Mu got up to catch up.

"I'm stupid! How can the game be so fast at this level?"

"Nonsense! Schroeder is short and thin, relying on speed to eat!"

"I'm talking about Jiang!"

Schroeder had already passed the midfield when he received the ball. Fortunately, Jiang Mu made the right judgment in advance and caught up behind Schroeder when he slowed down.

Schroeder is still full of confidence in his speed. After two dribbles, he reached near the three-point line, and took three steps in the face of an empty basket.

But Schroeder felt Jiang Mu's approach, and saw Jiang Mu and himself jumping up at the same time from the corner of his eye.

Schroeder knew that Jiang Mu's bounce was very good, and the layup with his right hand was suddenly replaced by his left hand, and he had to hook the board from the left when his body passed under the basket.

You can't cover it like this, can you?

What surprised Schroeder was that Jiang Mu's body, which was supposed to fall, still stayed in the air. Schroeder had already started to descend at this time, and Schroeder, who had no choice at all, still didn't feel that Jiang Mu could affect him. After all, it is through his own body, even if it is a foul, his free throw percentage should be very stable.

The moment Schroeder shot, a big hand directly pressed the ball in Schroeder's left hand.

Snapped!
The basketball was photographed by Jiang Mu, and it bounced off the ground.

Schroeder couldn't hold back and rushed out of the field. Jiang Mu turned around and hugged the ball in his arms as soon as he landed.

At this time, Teague and Williams also arrived, Jiang Mu passed the ball to Williams, and the Eagles, who quickly switched from offense to defense, were ready for battle.

"give me!"

Seeing Teague defending himself again, Williams did not hesitate to pass back Jiang Mu's words when he heard Jiang Mu's words.

Before Schroeder returned to defense, Jiang Mu quickly dribbled the ball to the frontcourt.

A pass fake, 5 on 4, the Eagles had to defend their own personnel.

Jiang Mu pulled up and shot another three-pointer. Teague had just arrived, so he had to jump up from behind to block the shot.

The moment Jiang Mu shot, Teague's arm hit Jiang Mu's head, and Jiang Mu deliberately fell forward.

brush!
The referee's whistle sounded, 3+1!

Whoa!
101:97，第四节11分02秒，分差再次回到了4分。

Anthony couldn't help being excited, stepped forward and pulled Jiang Mu up and rubbed Jiang Mu's head vigorously.

Jiang Mu was a little uncomfortable with this way of celebrating.

Schroeder was blocked by Jiang Mu for two consecutive rounds, and the other was beaten by Jiang Mu to 3+1. He became angry and complained to the referee.

"Just now he blocked my fast-break body and pushed me off the field, can't you see? You didn't blow the ball, but you just blow me when I turned around to defend and block him?"

The referee didn't think there was a problem with his penalty, and signaled Jiang Mu to stand on the free throw line.

Schroeder was still complaining, but the referee said "You can appeal, but if you continue to complain, I will give you a technical foul!" Still made Schroeder shut up.

Jiang Mu hit another free throw!

102: 97.

If the Eagles hit the ball, they still have a chance. Coach Holzer requested a timeout.

"We play this ball like this and pay attention to the defense of No. 8!"

Holzer's timeout also paid off. The attack time only took 14 seconds, and Teague made a mid-range shot.

102: 99.

At 11 minutes and 16 seconds of the fourth quarter, Jiang Mu once again used his physical advantage to get the ball. The Eagles did not foul according to Holzer's instructions, and Jiang Mu steadily advanced to the frontcourt.

Hines: "This ball should be timed. After the 24-second attack time is used up, the Eagles only have about 20 seconds. If they score, a 5-point lead will basically guarantee the Knicks' victory."

Muller: "That's right! But...Jiang, a player, doesn't seem to like the time-consuming style of play."

Hines (froze for a moment): "This is not the NCAA. He won't really mess around?"

Jiang Mu was not that self-willed. Although he was more confident in his actions with the blessing of the "Great Heart Badge", he knew his identity and status at this time.

Since the lead is 3 points, the victory is basically guaranteed, let the ball go to the boss!
Jiang Mu still didn't forget to give Schroeder a few more kicks. Under Schroeder's angry expression, Jiang Mu and Anthony made eye contact and passed the ball to Anthony who came out of his pocket.

Anthony's heart blossomed: What a good brother!
Anthony has many offensive means, but the most guaranteed is the sudden shot.

This time Anthony still scored against Bazemore's defense.

"It's Carmelo Anthony! He almost killed the game!"

Anthony, who tore his jersey and roared, seemed to announce at home: Did you see it?The Eastern Conference's No. [-] Eagles are nothing more than that!I'm still that offensive kaleidoscope!
At 11 minutes and 39 seconds of the fourth quarter, 104:99.

The Eagles called the last timeout of the game. In addition to arranging the offense, the value of this timeout is that after the timeout, the Eagles can serve from the baseline to the midfielder, which can save some time to advance to the frontcourt.

Holzer: "Grab points! Foul immediately after making a shot!"

The Knicks, which mainly defended three-pointers, did not give the Eagles a chance to shoot a three-pointer. Millsap turned around and scored two points at the basket.

Jiang Mu took the ball and Schroeder fouled.

Jiang Mu made a free throw and Schroeder left the field with 6 fouls. He looked at Jiang Mu with a lot of unwillingness in his eyes.

Made both free throws.

106: 99.

The Eagles took the ball and missed a three-pointer. There was no need for the two sides to continue playing.

Time runs out, game over!
