Reborn in the 96 golden generation

Chapter 463 Betting Three Points

Unexpectedly, Pippen, who was shaking out the space for his shot, did not immediately choose a mid-range shot, but pushed the ball straight to Wallace near the penalty area.

Pippen was really scheming. He had a premonition that Kobe was only the first line of defense for the Lakers, and Zhou Yu was the final line of defense. When Zhou Yu came up to help defend, he decisively passed the ball to Wallace who had missed it.

Wallace catches the ball and directly forms an attacking basket. Whether it is a slam dunk or a layup, it seems extremely relaxed and happy.

It's just that he ignored O'Neal, who was "the yellow bird behind". Although O'Neal mainly defended Sabonis, he did not relax his defense of the basket.

Seeing O'Neal rushing towards him fiercely, Wallace did not dare to take a slam dunk, but came up with a high layup. Although he avoided O'Neal's block, he failed to score the ball, and the basketball finally bounced out of the basket .

Zhou Yu seized the opportunity, struggled to grab the rebound, took advantage of the transition between offense and defense, and made another three-pointer near the top of the arc. The basketball crossed a beautiful parabola and hit the net with a crisp sound!

"98:95", the Lakers chased the point difference to only three points left. At this time, there were only 2 minutes and 13 seconds left before the end of the game, and the situation facing the Lakers was still very serious.

The next round of defense was critical, as Pippen continued to pass the time near the top of the key as the others dispersed.

Zhou Yu didn't dare to go up to help defend again this time. After all, there was a "Roaring God" beside him. Whether he could defend Pippen was entirely up to Kobe himself.

Kobe used his prehistoric powers to wrap Pippen tightly and impenetrably. In his previous life, he deserved to be a superstar who "combined offense and defense", and he was selected for the first defense nine times.

In desperation, Pippen had no choice but to reluctantly take a jumper. As a result, the basketball barely passed Kobe's fingertips and hit the high board!
"100:95", the Blazers lead the Lakers by five points, and Pippen used his super personal ability to give the Blazers a "reassurance".

Zhou Yu simply didn't look at the time display on the timer, and was ready to give it a go.

Only this time, he handed over the responsibility of shooting three-pointers to Kobe. Zhou Yu, who came near the top of the arc, first used the constant lateral movement of "Bai Buddha" shooting fakes to attract enough attention from the Trail Blazers.

Immediately, with a flick of his wrist, he used a sharp straight pass to smoothly hand the ball to Kobe who ran to the corner on one side.

Bryant jumped high and softly threw the ball in mid-air. The basketball passed Pippen's fingertips and fell straight to the basket.

After the crisp sound of "唰", the audience boiled, and the cheers of the Lakers fans became higher and higher, and the Great Western Forum suddenly became a sea of ​​joy.

"100:98", the Lakers are only two points behind the Blazers, and they are only a stone's throw away from catching up with the score.

At the critical moment, Zhou Yu and Kobe used consecutive three-pointers to pull the Lakers back from the cliff.

At this time, there is only 1 minute and 03 seconds left before the end of the game. The game between the two sides has officially entered the decisive moment, and every goal is related to success or failure.

The head coaches of both sides called a timeout at the same time to make the final tactical arrangement.

"Director Zhang, this game was simply too exciting and exciting. Both teams played at a super high level in the fourth quarter. In the remaining minute or so, it depends on which team's head star is more powerful."

Su Qun, who was on the commentary seat, commented with endless meaning.

"Xiao Su, you are only half right."

Zhang Weiping rubbed his chin with his hands, and began to sell Guan Zidao.

Su Qun took a deep breath, and secretly slandered, saying that he was half right was already pretty good, at least it was much better than superficial knowledge.

"Director Zhang, what is the other half?"

Su Qun couldn't help asking.

"The leading star can indeed play a key role at critical moments, but there are often unpredictable objective factors in competitive sports, such as the referee's penalty scale, the physical consumption of players, and so on."

Zhang Weiping talked eloquently.

"Director Zhang, what you said makes sense. This is the home court of the Lakers, and the referee is naturally more inclined to the home team. From the perspective of physical consumption of the players, Dazhi rested for a whole quarter, and his physical fitness should be more abundant. Do you mean that, The atmosphere on the court is more favorable for the Lakers."

Su Qun immediately cleared the way.

"It can be said that the key still depends on the grasp of opportunities. From a macro point of view, the Lakers' key ball ability is still better than the Trail Blazers. Big Zhi, Kobe, and O'Neal all have a certain level of key ball strength, while the Trail Blazers probably Just Pippen."

Zhang Weiping nodded.

"Director Zhang really has a good opinion, so let's wait and see together."

Su Qun smiled.

After the timeout, players from both sides returned to the court. Although the Lakers were only two points behind, they were still on the passive side. Not only did they have to defend the Blazers from a goal, but they also had to score a goal. The task is quite difficult.

Fortunately, Zhou Yu has the "basketball superstar growth system" to help him, especially the defensive skills of those well-known stars, which have played a huge role at this moment.

With the help of a series of star defensive skills, Zhou Yu successfully defended against the Blazers in this round of offense. Kukoc received a wonderful pass from Pippen, and under Zhou Yu's effective interference, he finally made a fadeaway jumper.

O'Neal grabbed the rebound very powerfully and handed the ball to Zhou Yu again.

Zhou Yu dribbled the ball across the half court while looking at the time display on the timer. His main defender, Wallace, pressed harder and harder, and the defense became more aggressive.

Not long after, Zhou Yu transferred possession to Kobe, and he fell to the low post to grab a rebound. Once Kobe and other outside players failed to make shots, rebounds became the only chance for the Lakers to turn things around.

Although "Madman" and Van Exel took the initiative to cover Kobe, Kobe still couldn't get rid of Pippen's entanglement.

In desperation, Kobe had no choice but to pass the ball to Zhou Yu on the inside again. Zhou Yu immediately held the ball and hit Wallace with his back. Time passed quietly between the two of them on offense and defense, but Zhou Yu still failed to find a better opponent. Mobile phone opportunity.

At the critical moment, the "madman" suddenly rushed out diagonally, and quickly came to meet Zhou Yu.

Zhou Yu took the opportunity to pass the ball to "Madman", and "Madman" suddenly had a short shot, and he chose a jumper without hesitation. However, "Madman"'s shot was false, and Zhou Yu's wonderful pass was true.

The two actually played an extremely cool "alley-oop" under the noses of the Trail Blazers. Zhou Yu jumped up and tapped the ball thrown by the "madman" into the basket with his fingertips!

"100:100", the two teams tied with only 30.1 seconds left before the end of the game!
The Trail Blazers' final attack was still handed over to Pippen. Although Pippen's physical strength had declined seriously, he still gritted his teeth and persisted.

With about seven seconds left before the shot clock, Pippen finally turned on the ball-handling breakthrough mode. His old teammate Kukoc came up to make a screen, and then quickly cut to the penalty area.

At the same time, Wallace and Sabonis also quickly moved beyond the three-point line. Zhou Yu and O'Neal faced a dilemma in defense. Both Wallace and Sabonis have a certain level of three-pointers. If they are completely released, it is difficult to guarantee The Blazers' last three-point bet tactic will not be successful, and once the two follow up, the Lakers will have a big loophole inside.

In a dilemma, Pippen suddenly passed the ball to Wallace in the bottom corner, but did not pass it to Kukoc who cut to the inside. Obviously, the Blazers were ready to bet on three points.

This is somewhat beyond the expectations of the Lakers, because when the two sides are tied and there is plenty of time, two-pointers are obviously more reliable than three-pointers, but the Trail Blazers did the opposite, which is surprising.

Zhou Yu had no choice but to silently pray that Wallace would miss the three-pointer.
