Chapter 301 Eastern District Semifinals ([-])
James had physical problems again at the beginning of the fourth quarter, and the 76ers, led by Zhang Zifeng, took the opportunity to tie the score.

At this time, the time has come to the fourth quarter with only 5 minutes left, 89-89, and the two sides tied.

At this time, whoever can make fewer mistakes and seize opportunities better will win the game.

Both sides stepped up their defenses.

The Cavaliers coach faces a choice.

It is to let James take a rest and fight for the last two or three minutes.Or let the exhausted him continue to play.

If James is off the court, the Cavaliers will not play again.If the 76ers take the opportunity to play a wave of offensive climax, even if they come back in the last two or three minutes, it will be difficult to get the score back.

But if he is not allowed to rest, then at the most critical time in the last two or three minutes, if James collapses from exhaustion, the Cavaliers are also in danger!

In the end, Cavaliers coach Tyronn Lue still didn't dare to bet.

Therefore, this game is very critical. He may determine the strategy the Cavaliers should adopt when returning to their home court, and even affect the trend of this series of games.

The hesitant Tyronn Lue decided to give the option to James, and he asked directly, "LeBron, do you think it feels good now, can you stick to it?"

James heard that he almost wanted to throw his drink at Tyronn Lue.

Damn you!
If you ask this question, how will I answer it?Is Lao Tzu going to answer that I can't do it anymore, I can't hold on anymore!

James said with an ugly face, "I can still hold on!"

Tyronn Lue immediately breathed a sigh of relief when he heard that, and said, "Okay, LeBron waits for you to continue playing. I know you are tired, but in order to win, you need to persist for a while. Go on. Go and lead your ball Team wins. Just like you did before!"

It sounds comfortable, but James is still very upset with this rookie coach, "I know how to do it!"

After the timeout, James continued to play, and Zhang Zifeng also continued to stay on the court.

Seeing Zhang Zifeng, the 76ers fans immediately gave him warm cheers.

Zhang Zifeng scored 24 points, 13 assists and 10 rebounds in a triple-double tonight.

It was also because of Zhang Zifeng's overall performance that the 76ers evened the score in the fourth quarter.

The 76ers fans hope that Zhang Zifeng can continue his outstanding performance and lead the team to win today's game.

The Cavaliers have the ball. At this time, James let Irving control the ball more.

Irving, holding the ball, singled out Rondo on the outside.

Love went up and made a pick-and-roll. After Irving rushed into the penalty area at high speed, he hit a difficult layup.

In order to guard against Smith, Zhang Zifeng's defense was delayed for a second.

Under Ibaka's interference, Irving hit a difficult layup to help the Cavaliers lead by 2 points.

The offensive and defensive transition, the 76ers are controlled by Rondo, and now the situation is beneficial to the 76ers bit by bit.

Even playing overtime is good for the 76ers.

Pressing the rhythm, seeing that half of the attack time passed, he was only 45 degrees to the right, and called Ibaka to make a pick-and-roll cooperation.

After breaking into the inside line, Rondo passed the ball behind his back.

When Love, who switched defenses, reacted, the ball was already in Zhang Zifeng's hands.

Zhang Zifeng pretended to shoot, but feinted.

Attracted both Smith and James.But it was immediately passed to Ibaka who cut inside.

After receiving the ball, Ibaka took advantage of the situation to break into the inside line and successfully smashed a dunk with one hand.

James was very helpless when he saw it, why did the 76ers cooperate so well!

Why is it that once Lao Tzu does not participate in the attack, the Cavaliers are basically left to do it alone?

91-91, tied again!
It was Irving's attack again.

The No. [-] man of the Cavaliers has started to help the team score as he helped the Cavaliers win the championship last season.

Once again, Irving broke through successfully, this time it was a [-]v[-], successfully broke through the defense of Rondo and Saric, and hit an emergency stop jumper from the mid-range.

I saw Owen succeed in two consecutive attacks.

Tyronn Lue is very satisfied, such Irving is what the Cavaliers need.When James is tired, or doesn't attack anymore.

As the second in charge, Irving should stand up decisively and help the team with scoring.

Seeing Irving score again and watching the game time go by, 76ers fans were very worried.

They are very afraid that Irving will explode suddenly at the last moment, so that the 76ers will be very dangerous.

Fortunately, Zhang Zifeng made a long three-point shot in the next round.Helping the team reconnect, also let the 79ers fans relax a little.

But soon the hearts of 76ers fans hung up again.

The team will face the Cavaliers' offense again, and it will face the test of Irving again.

Irving, who has scored consecutive offenses, is now more confident.

Facing Rondo, Irving dribbled the ball under the crotch and used the screen to get inside.

Facing Ibaka this time, he still rushed forward without fear.

The European step successfully flashed past the opponent, and Owen adjusted his body in the air, just as he was about to throw the ball.

Suddenly a black shadow appeared from the side, and immediately after leaving the basketball in his left hand, it was picked off by a big yellow-skinned hand in the air.

After Owen landed, he immediately saw the guy who blocked him.

Zhang Zifeng!
After Zhang Zifeng picked the ball off in the air, he spread his legs and ran forward.

When the 76ers fans saw it, they immediately made crazy cheering and cheering sounds.

"Good job!"

"Zhang Zifeng, you are amazing!"

"Get rid of your opponent in one go!"

At this time, every point is precious and fatal.

No matter how hard it was, James bit his teeth and rushed back desperately.

Zhang Zifeng dribbled the ball to the frontcourt and saw James chasing him.

Zhang Zifeng stopped abruptly and looked at Grant who was following him.

James quickly moved his body, trying to pinch Zhang Zifeng's passing route.

But Zhang Zifeng just pretended to pass the ball and confused James.

Zhang Zifeng accelerated to the inside line again and successfully made a layup.

93:96, the 76ers have already led by 3 points.

"Damn!"

Seeing Zhang Zifeng block Irving, he made a one-stop layup.Tyronn Lue slapped his tactical board indignantly.

Now there are only 2 minutes left in the game, and the 76ers lead by 3 points, which is not a good sign.

Successfully defended, played a defensive counterattack, and succeeded in a one-stop layup.

This attack greatly inspired the morale of the 76ers players.

They all gave high-fives to Zhang Zifeng who came back to celebrate.

The audience also rang out, "Zhang Zifeng, MVP! Zhang Zifeng, MVP! Zhang Zifeng, MVP!"
Leading by 3 points, the game went to the last and most critical 2 minutes.

Everyone dare not make mistakes easily, and dare not attack rashly.

For a while, the two teams did not score too much within 1 minute, and the score was always anxious at 93-96.

When the game entered the last minute, the 1ers still led by 76 points.

The situation is very favorable for the 76ers!
James, who had been bleak in the fourth quarter before, broke out suddenly.

He grabbed the rebound in the backcourt, he didn't pass the ball to Irving, and dribbled the ball to the frontcourt himself.

James' sudden offensive choice caught the 76ers by surprise.

Because the 76ers put more energy on Irving.

Grant and Zhang Zifeng hurried to the meeting, trying to stop James, even if they made a foul.

But James' choice this time was unexpected.He didn't choose a more secure layup, he jumped directly beyond the three-point line, and shot.

Grant was completely unprepared, and he didn't react until the ball had flown out of James' hands and headed for the basket.

Unfortunately, it was too late.

The ball spun cleanly into the basket.

96-96, James tied the score again with a three-pointer.

Seeing the goal, the Wells Fargo Arena, which had been in high spirits before, suddenly cooled down.

Brett Brown saw standing on the sidelines cursing secretly. He was very annoyed at Grant's low-level mistakes, but he saw the sweat dripping from Grant's face bit by bit.

Brett Brown fell silent, Grant tried his best, and he was tired from fighting James the whole game.It is not easy for him to persist until now.

Brett Brown calls a timeout.

With just 47 seconds left in the game, the score was equalized again, which made the game possible.

Brett Brown needs to arrange an offensive tactic to ensure a successful attack so that he can continue to lead!
