The era of point forwards in the NBA

Chapter 95 Quasi-lore (please recommend, please collect)

"Scramble, the referee is calling for scrimmage." Barkley shouted excitedly.

"Lin Yue used his own efforts to win a chance for the team to own the ball, but the jump ball is likely to be won by Kevin Love." Kenny Smith believes that even if the ball is jumped, the ball is still in the hands of UCLA.

Lin Yue panted heavily, and he could recover a little bit of strength at this time.

"If it's a scrimmage, I don't have much chance of winning against Love. I still have to figure out how to defend the ball after the scrimmage." Lin Yue thought to himself.

The referee tossed the ball high, and Love, who had had enough rest, was still physically fit at this time. Lin Yue jumped tentatively. As he expected, he didn't have a chance to grab the ball.

Love tossed the ball to Collison, who passed it to Westbrook.

Westbrook catches the ball and only kills the basket. Due to Davidson's position, the defense at the basket is still very empty.

At this moment, Lin Yue, who was on guard, caught up with Westbrook.

"You will never score this goal." Lin Yue rarely spoke to his opponent.

Westbrook didn't respond, Lin Yue had only a blocking effect from the side, reaching out to interfere with his attack.

Westbrook and Lin Yue confronted each other physically, pushed the opponent away and then changed hands to score the ball.

"I won this time." Westbrook patted Lin Yue's butt and laughed.

"With Russell Westbrook's hit, the difference between the two sides returned to three points." Barkley said.

"The game time is less than 1 minute, and Davidson has no way out."

There can only be one winner in this fierce contest.

Lin Yue was not reconciled on the court. He didn't expect Westbrook to be so sophisticated with the ball. He pushed him away first and then changed hands for a layup, which didn't give him a chance to block the shot.

"This ball is not defended, and the next ball must be scored." Lin Yue thought to himself, he wanted to hand the ball to Curry.

McKillop hesitated off the court whether to use the final timeout of the game.

After thinking about it again and again, he still made a pause gesture, arranged for an attack, and at the same time let the players take a breather.

"Davidson called a timeout, which should be their last chance to time out," Barkley said.

"Yes, this time they need to arrange the tactics of the whole game. Not only do they need to score a goal, they also need to successfully defend against UCLA's offense." Kenny Smith said.

While the commentary was discussing the next attack, the auditorium also went into a frenzy. Fans from both sides were cheering for their teams.

This is only a semi-final, but the excitement is not inferior to the final.

The coaches of the two teams on the sidelines held the tactical board and muttered.

"Stephen, the next ball will be handed over to you." McKillop said to Curry.

Immediately, he deployed a double-screen tactic on the tactical board. He knew very well that UCLA would strictly guard against the outside line, but he believed in Stephen's ability. In the past two years, he has personally seen how this underestimated kid got to where he is today.

Lin Yue and the others had no objections, and they were completely convinced by Curry as their teammate and leader.

On the UCLA side, Holland has always emphasized the importance of Stephen Curry.

"As soon as No. 30 on the opposite side gets the ball, go double-team and don't give him a chance to make a shot." Holland tapped on the tactical board to remind him that the more critical the moment, the harder it is to ignore the opponent.

The timeout ends and players from both sides return to the field again.

"It depends on the tactics of the players on both sides during the timeout period. Not surprisingly, Davidson still has two opportunities to attack." Kenny Smith said.

Lin Yue served to Richards. This time he stood outside the three-point line and did not catch the ball near the familiar free throw line.

"What does Davidson want?" Barkley saw that everyone in Davidson was standing near the three-point line.

"They should be covering Stephen Curry's three-pointer. There is no doubt that UCLA will stare at the opponent's three-pointer." Kenny Smith guessed the intention of both parties.

But people on both sides understand that the ball depends on whether Curry can make it.

Richards passed the ball directly to Curry, and he ran to set the first screen for Curry.

Westbrook, who defended Richards, immediately filled his position. He knew he couldn't give Curry a chance to shoot.

At this time, Lin Yue ran to pick and roll again. After Curry passed the ball to Lin Yue, he withdrew to the right 45-degree three-point line, and Lin Yue passed the ball back.

Josh Shipp and Westbrook rushed towards Curry at the same time. Stephen Curry hit Westbrook and then threw the ball towards Josh Shipp.

"Davidson's tactic was successful, but Josh Shipp still followed up and interfered with the opponent's shot. Stephen Curry shot against the defense." Barkley was a little nervous, looking at the arc of the ball.

After a few seconds.

"A good shot, Stephen Curry deserves to be a player with a big heart. He hit the ball against the opponent's defense at the critical moment." Kenny Smith exclaimed.

The audience at the scene also stood up and applauded. This ball showed the demeanor of the NCAA scoring champion.

The score was tied, with Davidson and UCLA tied at 88.

There are 38 seconds left, even if UCLA crushes the time, Davidson still has a chance to attack.

Westbrook is dribbling at the top of the arc, consuming time. As long as the ball takes time, even if they don't score, they will have a chance to overtime.

Richards took two steps in front of him to guard against the opponent's attack.

"It's impossible for him to shoot a three-pointer, left or right." Richards watched Westbrook's dribble closely and observed the direction he was going to break through.

Sure enough, seeing that the time was about the same, Westbrook dribbled the ball under his crotch and accelerated directly to break through from the left.

Richards followed closely, Westbrook pulled back and broke through from the right again, changing direction greatly, Richards failed to keep up.

Lin Yue ran to defend against Westbrook.

Westbrook was forced to stop the ball.

"UCLA stopped the ball, they don't have much time to attack." Barkley shouted.

Love ran out from the inside to catch the ball, Westbrook lobbed it to his teammates, Love took the ball and shot directly without any hesitation.

Boris came a step late, and when Love made his shot, his defense seemed meaningless.

The audience at the scene stood up to watch, this ball will determine the outcome of the game.

"Shh!"

"Kevin Love made a mid-range shot and hit a quasi-lore at the last moment, the savior of UCLA, Kevin Love!!!!" Kenny Smith shouted, this ball is too tough, it is completely a manifestation of personal ability.

"Davidson still has 8 seconds to attack, but they have no chance to pause, they can only serve from the backcourt." Barkley said that the current situation is not optimistic.

"We haven't lost yet." Lin Yue yelled, picked up the ball and sent it to Curry on the baseline.

As soon as the latter got the ball, he was double-teamed by two people.

Curry could only pass the ball, and Richards got it and passed it to Lin Yue who was running and asking for the ball.

Richards made a long pass, and Lin Yue jumped to catch the ball.

"Lin Yue's three-pointer is not good, but there is not much time for this shot, he can only shoot a three-pointer." Barkley said.

Seeing how little time was left, Lin Yueyun stepped outside the three-point line and stood up.

Josh Ship never expected that Lin Yue would shoot a three-pointer at a critical moment. He didn't make a single three-pointer this game, so he dared.

While sighing, Hipp turned around and looked at the trajectory of the ball.

"If you get rid of this goal, you must score." Lin Yue shouted in his heart, he had never been so nervous.

"Lin..." Curry believed him. Ever since Lin Yue joined the team, they have struggled so far and have gone through big and small games to this day.

The audience still did not sit down, and their eyes were attracted by the basketball in the air.

Barkley held his breath as if he had thrown the ball.

"Bang, kuang, kuang." The basketball bounced on the hoop a few times, and everyone's hearts also rose and fell.

Until the moment the basketball fell, several families were happy and others were sad.

"Let us congratulate UCLA for successfully advancing to the NCAA finals." Kenny Smith said.

"The two sides showed us a sufficiently exciting game. There are always winners and losers in the competition, but the process will be remembered. Davidson made history and broke everyone's doubts about them. As the king, UCLA showed their strength. They defended this victory and were not reversed by their opponents at critical moments." Barkley said from the bottom of his heart. There were tears in his eyes.

But youth will always have regrets, and life can create miracles precisely because there are still expectations.

Lin Yue lay on the field, listening to the cheers of the audience, for the winners and losers, there was always some applause for them.

The stage lights were so dazzling that Lin Yue had no choice but to cover them with his hands.

This stage is really good, but unfortunately, he has to leave temporarily.
