The older superstars of the NBA

Chapter 765 Too difficult

The last section.

Both sides sent their core lineups to the stage.

After the game started, the Cavaliers concentrated the ball in the hands of LeBron James. After a period of rest, LeBron stopped recuperating and completely turned on his personal violent mode, seizing the opportunity to break through and dunk at the Warriors' basket.

His single allowed the Cavaliers to catch up with the score difference in a short time.

But soon, the Warriors seized the opportunity to launch a counterattack. Thompson had his strongest performance of the season today. He scored 31 points in the first three quarters. In this quarter, he scored 7 points in a row at a critical moment, once helping the Warriors firmly stabilize the situation.

The fierce battle between the two sides continued until the final moment. When there were 1 minute and 17 seconds left in the game, the Cavaliers tied the score with the Warriors.

The two sides scored 101 to 101.

The Warriors serve.

Stephen Curry advanced with the ball, but was interfered by Zhao Feiyang just after halftime. Curry transferred the ball to Thompson, and George Hill went up to chase Thompson.

After halftime, Draymond Green helped Thompson pick and roll. After fending off Hill, Thompson seized the opportunity and made a decisive shot at the top of the arc.

boom.

A three-pointer missed and the basketball hit the rim and bounced out.

Players from both sides entered the basket to compete for rebounds.

Kevin Love finally made a contribution this time. He picked off the rebound above Green's head. After getting the ball, he quickly threw it out and threw a long pass directly to the half court. Zhao Feiyang had already passed the half court.

Snapped.

Zhao Feiyang successfully caught the basketball.

It's just that the Warriors reacted quite quickly. Curry had already blocked the offensive line in front of him, and Thompson was also rushing towards him at the same time.

One against two.

Faced with this situation, Zhao Feiyang distanced himself. He first made a feint shot, then flew toward Thompson to block him, and then rushed to the basket facing Curry. The moment the two came into contact, Zhao Feiyang leaned against Curry and turned around to pull away.

By the time Curry reacted, Zhao Feiyang's hand had already thrown towards the basket.

boom.

The basketball hit the backboard and scored steadily.

103:101.

The Warriors continued to serve.

This time, the Warriors decisively gave the ball to Durant.

Durant hadn't taken any action after halftime. Green on the inside directly moved up to the high post to help him cover. Taking this opportunity, Durant threw away LeBron and rushed to the basket. Tristan Thompson rushed towards him. At this time, Durant used his wingspan advantage to avoid him and send the ball in.

boom.

The ball went in and the score became 103-103.

There is not much time left, and the two sides have entered a fierce stage. With only 19 seconds left in the game, the Cavaliers had the ball and the score remained unchanged.

Snapped.

The Cavaliers gave the ball away.

This time it was not Zhao Feiyang who caught the ball. He was double-teamed by Thompson and Curry and could not find any chance to catch the ball. However, LeBron seized the opportunity through Hill's screen and received Love's pass from the wing position under the basket.

LeBron, who got the ball, advanced with the ball.

He had just passed halftime, and Durant kept reaching out to interfere with him. In this situation, LeBron signaled his teammates to come up to cover, but actually waited for the next second to suddenly dribble the ball and launch a sneak attack.

His sneak attack still worked, and he did catch the Warriors off guard.

Seeing LeBron smoothly entering the basket, Green, who was guarding the penalty area, had to make a bold move. He jumped up high and pounced on LeBron, pulling LeBron down just as LeBron was about to throw the basketball.

call out.

The referee whistle sounded.

LeBron originally wanted to play two plus one, but Green's pull was so fierce that he was entangled and unable to take action.

Fortunately, I got a free throw opportunity.

With all the fans watching, LeBron also stood on the free throw line. After receiving the referee's pass, he tapped the basketball twice and adjusted his breathing.

"call!"

When his heartbeat stabilized slightly, LeBron raised the basketball and took action.

Swish.

The first free throw was a solid hit.

Soon came the second free throw.

This time, all the fans stood up and waited, and all the players on the benches of both teams also stood up. Everyone knows that this free throw is likely to determine the outcome.

LeBron also looked a little nervous. Amid boos from Warriors fans, he held the basketball high and threw it toward the rim.

boom.

The basketball hit the rim and bounced out.

"Rebound."

Zhao Feiyang shouted a reminder from behind.

Players from both sides of the basket were already crowded together, and at the same time three or four players jumped up to fight for the bouncing basketball. In the chaos, the basketball was knocked out by Green's hand. By coincidence, the ball fell into Durant's hands.

Durant didn't hesitate at all after getting the ball. Amid the exclamations of all the fans, he took a running start, raised the basketball and threw it directly towards the basket.

After he threw the basketball, the sound of the live timer stopping also sounded.

beep.

At this moment, everyone's eyes were focused on the basketball.

A moment later, there was a "swish" sound, Durant's super long-range shot was successfully scored, and the entire Oracle Arena burst into violent cheers.

"we won!"

"Kill!"

Durant was a little stunned when he made this shot. Obviously, his shot was completely wrong. Maybe even he himself did not expect that he would really score.

106:104.

The Warriors defeated the Cavaliers by 2 points at the last minute.

If the last victory made the Cavaliers feel that there was some luck in the Warriors' win, then this time the Cavaliers have nothing to say!

LeBron looked helpless. After briefly greeting Durant, Curry and others, he walked directly to the tunnel. Love sat there and kept wiping the sweat on his forehead with a towel, while head coach Tyronn Lue sat in his chair and kept shaking his head.

The other Cavaliers players also looked frustrated.

As the core of the team, Zhao Feiyang was quite helpless at this time.

Apart from luck, the gap in the lineup is indeed the biggest problem when the team loses to the Warriors. In addition, after losing the game, the Cavaliers' internal morale has actually had problems. The most obvious one is that LeBron, as the super core, has slacked off.

If even the team leader thinks this way, will other players still believe that the team can win?

The night after the game, the Cleveland media also reported on the game.

Surprisingly, the Cleveland media is quite tolerant of LeBron. Even though he only scored 25 points in this game, many media still felt that his performance was very good.

On the contrary, Zhao Feiyang scored a team-high 36 points, but was considered by some media to have taken up too much of LeBron's ball rights!
