Reborn in the 96 golden generation

Chapter 266 Quasi Triple Double

Although Stockton is a player with an extremely calm mind, he often makes amazing moves at critical moments, so in the last defense, Zhou Yu's pressure is huge, and he has to take care of both inside and outside.

At the end of the timeout, players from both sides re-entered the field. The Jazz served at halftime, and the ball quickly reached Stockton's hands.

With the help of Russell and Hornacek's "double screen", Stockton quickly slipped to the bottom line. The Lakers' defense line did not retract, and the focus was still on the outside.

Zhou Yu was in a dilemma, because when Stockton came near the bottom line, he did not continue to break through, but slowed down the attacking rhythm a little, as if deliberately seducing Zhou Yu to come out.

It's a pity that Zhou Yu was not fooled. If he stayed away from the restricted area, Ma Long and "Big Pyrenees" would definitely make trouble, and Campbell would definitely be unable to deal with it alone.

Suddenly, Stockton made a ground pass, the ball passed through Van Exel's crotch, and accidentally reached the hands of Russell who came in through an air cut. Clip the ball and fiercely attack the Lakers basket.

Obviously, the Jazz is ready to score two points in the final attack, and then play overtime with the Lakers.

At this point, there is enough space in front of Russell, and a one-handed dunk seems inevitable.

At the critical moment, Zhou Yu stepped forward again, using his quick turn and nimble steps, to stand in front of Russell, ready to "sacrifice himself to block the bullet hole".

This is a desperate move. This is the Jazz's home court, and the referee is naturally more inclined to the home team. In addition, Russell's attack is fierce. Even if he fails to make a slam dunk, it may cause Zhou Yu to block the foul.

And once Zhou Yu leaves the field, the Lakers will completely lose suspense and will undoubtedly lose.

After a fierce physical confrontation, Russell's slam dunk plan was dead, but the referee's whistle was also timely. Zhou Yu was indeed sentenced to a blocking foul, six fouls left the field, and followed O'Neal's footsteps.

Zhou Yu bowed his head and left the game with a dejected expression, but was greeted with applause from the away fans, which is extremely rare in the NBA.

"Wang, you did the right thing just now. Even if the Lakers lose this game, you are the first to contribute."

Harris patted Zhou Yu on the back and comforted him with kind words.

"Brother, your 'death' is more heroic than mine. I admire you so much. As an inside player, you should go forward bravely and never look back!"

O'Neill put his arms around Zhou Yu's shoulders and said righteously.

"Brother Shark, stop pretending. You and Xiaoya have already made plans to go to Hawaii for vacation. Don't think I don't know. You wish the Lakers could go home soon."

Zhou Yu snorted coldly and said with a sneer.

"Brother, don't make it public. If the coach finds out about this, I will be useless."

O'Neill looked left and right, and said with trepidation.

"Brother Shark, take it easy. If the Lakers can enter the Finals this season, or even win the championship, your worth and mine will double. You have to weigh it clearly."

Zhou Yu said in a calm manner.

"That's that, don't worry, brother, I won't be lazy and slack, in order to raise my salary, I also have to abandon my selfishness and distractions, and do my best for the Lakers."

O'Neill nodded, and promised with a strong oath.

While the two were chatting, Russell had slowly walked to the free throw line.

Stockton and Ma Long stepped forward to give some advice with some anxiety.

"Russell, relax, your free throws have always been very good, you have to believe that you can make free throws."

Stockton bit his lower lip into a white line, and said calmly.

"Old Searle, don't be nervous, don't worry too much, just play normally, even if you miss the penalty, no one will blame you."

Ma Long clenched his fists and said kindly.

Russell glanced at them dumbfounded, and complained secretly, your acting skills are too bad, obviously you didn't mean what you said, if I don't get fined, you two will have to beat me to death.

At this time, there are only 1.3 seconds left before the end of the game. If Russell misses a free throw, the Lakers will seal the victory.

Under the heavy pressure, Russell's legs trembled slightly, and finally raised his hand to take the first free throw.

The audience was silent, and everyone's hearts were in their throats, watching the trajectory of the basketball.

With a crisp bang, the basketball hit the front of the basket and bounced out.

Russell almost passed out immediately. Fortunately, the direction of the basket ejection was forward, and after stumbling, he finally rolled into the basket.

Russell let out a long breath, feeling like his heart was about to jump out of his chest, and then prepared for the second free throw.

Since the strength of the first penalty was a bit weak, Russell subconsciously increased his strength for the second penalty.

Sadly, the force was too strong, the basketball hit the back edge of the hoop and bounced straight out.

Players from both sides rushed to grab rebounds. In the midst of the chaotic battle, the long electronic sound at the end of the game suddenly sounded, and the score was finally fixed at "84:83". Rewritten as 2:1, firmly grasping the initiative to advance.

The Jazz players were so frustrated that they almost put the "culprit" Russell "on the spot". The Lakers hugged each other and celebrated, using mineral water as champagne and pouring each other's heads.

"A tense game is finally over. This is a real peak match. I still say the same thing. There is no loser in this game. The Lakers are young and passionate like the rising sun, and the Jazz is old and strong like a green pine. Thanks to both sides The players brought a wonderful game to the fans, and we will see you in the fourth game."

Susan said emotionally.

"Susan, I haven't finished my conclusion yet."

Smith on the side was a little embarrassed.

"You don't need to conclude, you should go back and reflect on it, and pay back the money owed to your colleagues as soon as possible."

Susan responded coldly, and then walked away.

The personal statistics of the players of both sides in this game are as follows:

周宇拿下26分、9个篮板、9次助攻，打出了酷炫的“准三双”；科比得到16分、6次助攻、3次抢断，表现中规中矩；斯普雷威尔得到15分、3次助攻、2次抢断，算是比较给力；奥尼尔再次成为蓝领典范，尽管只有8分入账，却抢下15个篮板。

Stockton scored 26 points, 13 assists, and 5 steals, and was still the best player in the Jazz; Malone scored 22 points, 13 rebounds, and once again hit the "double-double" data; Hornacek's performance Mediocre, scoring only 8 points; Russell performed comprehensively, scoring 10 points, 6 rebounds, and 5 assists, but made two free throws at the critical moment and became the target of public criticism.

The main players of the two sides are still neck and neck, and the substitutes are evenly matched. The outcome of the game is only a hair's breadth away. Fortunately, the Lakers had better luck today and successfully won this crucial game.

After the game, all the Lakers players unanimously asked Harris to treat everyone to a seafood buffet again. Harris declined euphemistically on the grounds of eating seafood and diarrhea, saying that there is no problem in treating guests, and they can only eat California beef noodles instead.

Zhou Yu didn't intend to attend the party, so he quickly disappeared on the grounds of being dizzy and dizzy.

After resting in the hotel where the team stayed, he kept his promise and asked Susan to go shopping.

To be honest, shopping is the most troublesome thing for men, and Zhou Yu is no exception, but this time he has to speak first, and has to accompany Susan through the bustling downtown area.

Luckily, Susan understood how hard Zhou Yu had just finished the game, so she found a nearby shopping mall, then went straight to a clothing store, picked out a pink floral dress, waved it in front of Zhou Yu's eyes and said:

"Wang, do you think this dress is beautiful?"

"pretty."

Zhou Yu replied without hesitation. In fact, in his opinion, a girl with a figure and good looks like Susan looks beautiful in any clothes.
