NBA: I am the card dealer

Chapter 337 A real kill!

In 11 seconds, the two sides were tied.

At this point in time, there is no doubt that the Knicks will try their best to defend against this attack. Once defended, both sides will return to the same starting line.

If they can't prevent it, it means death. They have no way out.

For the Warriors, that is to maximize the success rate and kill the game.

of course.

Even if they can't kill the game, they still have a way out, which is overtime.

These are two completely different states, and the pressure they face is also very different, which makes them play the game with different mentality.

For this reason, many fans have suggested that a tie-breaker is not considered a buzzer-beater?

why?

Because the pressure you face is different.

If you don't make a shot, it's going to be overtime, but you won't die.

And falling behind to shoot the buzzer-beater are two completely different concepts.

Because you can't make a shot, you're really going to die.

of course.

In fact, it is not easy to score a winning goal. All the defensive players are tense and will not relax at all, and will not give you half a point of shooting space.

Under such circumstances, you can still make the investment.

Then you are equally awesome, and there is no doubt about your ability to withstand pressure and your personal strength.

After coming down, Tyronn Lue did not lay out tactics, but said directly, "Take out all your energy, I need to see you seal Curry and Thompson, especially Stephen Curry."

When it comes to the last shot, you don't have to think twice to know that it's either Thompson or Curry.

Unless someone else's leak is very obvious, it can't be them.

Given Thompson's poor touch in this game, Curry is more likely to finish.

and so.

Sealing Curry is their top priority.

After Tyronn Lu finished speaking, he glanced at Xue Liancheng, with a questioning look in his eyes, probably: Can you do it?

Xue Liancheng still had some confidence and nodded, "I will crucify him."

After all, the ability to predict in 0.6 seconds is not false. As long as Curry does not rush to the basket to finish, then he can use his ability to predict and completely block Curry.

It may not be 100%, but there is a high probability that Curry will take action under extreme circumstances.

of course.

If Curry drives to the basket, there's nothing he can do.

Because he has excellent reflexes, but sometimes his body can't keep up!

Especially when facing players with fast speed and rhythm, his ability to prevent breakthroughs is still far behind.

Therefore, he added, "If he chooses to break through, I hope someone can press in to cover the defense."

Tyronn Lue explained, "I heard it all, the principle of making up for the defense at the nearest location."

Everyone nodded.

The timeout ended quickly and play resumed.

On the side, Lopez clearly showed disappointment in his eyes.

As the core of the inside line, at the last critical moment, he failed to make a contribution on the court, which naturally made him feel a little uncomfortable.

Xue Liancheng didn't know these things at all.

He was already next to Curry, waiting for the referee to blow the whistle, and he was fully immersed in the game.

Beep!

Curry pushed Xue Liancheng with secret force and then caught the ball.

And this is all expected.

Xue Liancheng watched Curry's dribbling rhythm and slowly backed away.

Because from Curry's fast dribbling rhythm, he felt that Curry was planning to break through.

of course.

He didn't dare to retreat too far.

After all, Curry has the habit of shooting from two steps beyond the three-point line, and he also has a pretty good sight.

and so.

While preventing breakouts, you also need to take into account Curry's surprise three-pointers.

This is the deterrent that Curry brings.

Still very strong.

ten.

Nine.

Eight.

Curry's dribbling rhythm is getting faster and faster.

at last.

He moved.

He took a sudden step, and then suddenly swayed from side to side while walking.

If it is an ordinary defensive player, his center of gravity will definitely be shaken by Curry's actions.

But Xue Liancheng didn't.

He just stepped back to prevent being run over by Curry, but his main focus remained unmoved at all.

The commentator was already giving a passionate speech at this time, "Two superstars are here. This kind of head-to-head confrontation is very rare. Now let's see who is better. Curry rushes forward, swings the rhythm, and continues to press forward." , came... then turned around and rushed over..."

Curry pressed forward and suddenly turned around.

Although Xue Liancheng predicted it, his body failed to keep up and he only had time to stretch his feet.

But Curry still used his elbow to clear a path, and walked over on hot wheels.

Xue Liancheng was very helpless, but he finally made a breakthrough...

If it breaks through, he can't defend it.

But it finally worked as a delay. At least after stretching his feet, Curry was allowed to slow down.

Feng Lai shrank in and cooperated with Xue Liancheng to attack from both sides.

In this case, Curry still did not pass.

Maybe every superstar is proud and confident in himself.

It may also be that Curry wants to prove in front of the whole world that he is the best player this season, so Xue Liancheng suddenly came in to complete the game-winner, which is the best explanation.

Curry finally reached Feng Lai.

Then without pausing, he turned around again smoothly.

Directly underhanded layup.

Feng Lai's height and wingspan came into play at this time, intercepting directly from behind, and his fingertips poked the ball, changing the trajectory of the ball.

When Curry turned around and took a shot, he was unable to control his body and eventually fell to the ground.

Xue Liancheng was ecstatic.

The good brothers successfully intercepted and won overtime for them?

result.

Before the surging joy could rise, there was a "beep" sound and was thrown into the abyss.

The referee signaled.

foul!

Two free throws.

Feng Lai was stunned for a moment.

Xue Liancheng was also stunned for a moment, but he quickly reacted and subconsciously looked at the bottom line referee, "Sir! I would like to ask, where is the foul on this ball?"

Feng Lai clearly poked the ball, but did not attack Curry. Even the physical contact was limited to Curry and then turned to lean on Feng Lai.

Curry needed to exert force, so he failed to stabilize his body and fell to the ground.

When Feng Lai flew to intercept, Curry was already falling. They were separated from each other and there was no direct physical contact between the two.

These things were clearly displayed in the dynamic images in Xue Liancheng's mind, so he asked questions.

The bottom line referee said expressionlessly, "He violated Curry's cylinder."

Xue Liancheng opened his mouth and was instantly speechless.

Because the explanation of cylinder violation is too universal, as long as the offensive player falls to the ground and the defensive player leans over, it can be called.

But the problem is, Curry fell by himself. At such a critical moment, the referee intervened to affect the result of the game, which is very depressing.

He was about to say something...

At this time, Green came over and said with a half-smile, "You still call others crybabies, so what do you mean?"

Xue Liancheng sneered, "We are discussing the penalty scale, is it your turn to complain?"

Green didn't seem to take it seriously: "The referee has already told you the answer. Isn't that enough? If you feel dissatisfied and there are still 1.1 seconds left, just use your actual actions to kill us. Why do you talk so much?"

natural.

The winner is the Warriors. Green has no reason to be angry at all. Instead, he chooses to provoke Xue Liancheng and step on him.

Xue Liancheng's facial muscles twitched hard, which hit his weak spot, because the 100% hit skill was really used up.

But he couldn't lose his momentum, he said solemnly, "You are the one who talks the most."

At this time, Curry had already gotten up, taking off his braces and walking over with a smile, "I'm looking forward to your killer moment."

The way he shakes his head is indeed a bit like a king, and he looks quite arrogant...

Therefore, this is why many fans mocked Curry for being arrogant and called Curry a shaking head.

That little expression is really annoying.

but.

Curry also has such capital. After all, he created a crazy era of shooting in two steps from the three-point line. This kind of unreasonable shooting has become reasonable for Curry.

Such a powerful projection ability indeed has the capital to be arrogant.

same.

Xue Liancheng's expressionless face when he repeatedly killed the game at critical moments was considered by many fans to be arrogant and disrespectful to his opponents.

and so……

It's hard to say this. There is no right or wrong at all. It just depends on the mentality of the parties involved.

Just like Xue Liancheng at this time, his mentality was actually slightly broken.

Because if he still has a 100% hitting skill base, he will just smile and say nothing when faced with the provocations of Curry and Green.

Because he knows that he can definitely kill the game, and their ridicule is as ridiculous as a joke.

The problem now is that without 100% hit skills, he simply has no confidence to end the game.

So faced with the ridicule, he became a little anxious.

This is the first time since he entered the league that he has been so unstable.

<divclass="contentadv">In addition to the Warriors being their ultimate opponent, there is another crucial point. Curry is also his biggest competitor.

He couldn't accept such a result from the bottom of his heart when he was defeated in a competition with his competitors.

Xue Liancheng took a deep breath, tried to calm down, and then responded, "Thank you for your expectation, I will try my best."

This sentence can be regarded as a release of stress.

It can also be regarded as encouragement to myself.

No matter what, this was the first time he faced a life-or-death moment without 100% hit skills.

He hopes that he can face it bravely, no matter whether he wins or loses...

Curry said nothing more and walked to the free throw line.

Because the whistle was delayed, the referee finally made a callback with only 1.3 seconds left.

The first free throw was made steadily.

The fans at the scene were excited.

This means that the Warriors are basically invincible, of course, provided that no miracle happens within 1.1 seconds.

but.

They were facing Xue Liancheng now, and their confidence was not that strong.

Second penalty.

Everyone held their breath and everyone became nervous.

Commentator: "The life-or-death goal is here, Curry probably won't make the free throw."

Commentator: "Strategically speaking, this is true."

Because of this ball, Curry can deliberately miss the free throw to let time pass and tilt the balance of victory more towards the Warriors.

And if you can get a rebound, that would be even better, and the game is over.

and so.

This free throw is very critical. It can be said to be the ball that determines the life and death of both sides.

The Knicks replaced Lopez and Rooney, keeping the extremely athletic Vonleh on the court, naturally for the purpose of grabbing rebounds.

As the back line, Xue Liancheng and Oladipo need to position outside the three-point line, otherwise they will have to go down.

same.

The Warriors also replaced their own big men, Bogut and Speights.

At the referee's signal.

Curry raised his hand and took a look.

Then he hit the ball straight.

Xue Liancheng and Oladipo immediately squeezed into the card position.

Xue Liancheng, in particular, was already staring at the ball and walking towards the predicted landing point of the ball.

The ball hit the neck of the basket.

Xue Liancheng has the ability to predict and get a good position early.

Successfully got the rebound in the battle with Curry and Thompson.

Then he took a step with the ball and immediately called a timeout.

There is only 1.1 seconds left.

The commentator was surprised, "I never expected that it was Xue Liancheng who got the rebound."

Commentator: "Indeed, Xue Liancheng seemed to know where the ball would land in advance. He drilled towards the corner and successfully grabbed the rebound."

In fact, they are right.

Xue Liancheng can indeed know where the ball will land 0.6 seconds in advance.

of course.

The premise is that when Curry took a free throw, he deliberately knocked the ball out of the perimeter.

If it falls in the paint, he can't even get in, let alone grab a rebound.

This is half of Curry's credit.

He thought he could grab the rebound when he collapsed to the outside, but he ended up taking advantage of Xue Liancheng.

After coming down.

Tyronn Lue began to draw tactics.

But in fact, there is nothing to draw. The main thing is to arrange how others pass the screen, let Xue Liancheng receive the ball, and then let Xue Liancheng complete a comfortable shot.

Because the Warriors only lead by 1 point, the Knicks can choose to take shots not only from outside the three-point line, but also have arrangements for running inside to cover.

After Xue Liancheng heard this, he suddenly pointed at Feng Lai and Oladipo, "After covering the screen, you can try to rush to the basket. If you have a chance, you can finish it. If you don't have a chance, it doesn't matter. You can distract my defensive attention for me."

The two nodded, "Understood."

Not long after, the timeout was up.

Lopez came up to serve, because Lopez was tall enough, had good vision, and passed the ball well. This arrangement was considered.

Crowder landed in the bottom corner, and his main task was to pull someone out to make more space inside.

of course.

Another point is that Crowder just hit a key three-pointer, and the Warriors should not have the courage to let it go. This is the role of deterrence.

Oladipo is at the top of the key.

Feng Lai provided cover, mainly for Xue Liancheng.

The whistle blows.

Green ignored Lopez at all and chased Xue Liancheng with Iguodala.

Their goal is very clear, that is to suppress Xue Liancheng to death and try to prevent Xue Liancheng from catching the ball.

This strategy is undoubtedly the right one.

Because Xue Liancheng proved himself countless times at critical moments last season and even this season.

Their fear of Xue Liancheng is like preventing a nuclear bomb...

As long as Xue Liancheng is not allowed to catch the ball, it is equivalent to destroying the nuclear bomb device.

Therefore, it can be said that the greatest courtesy to Xue Liancheng is for the two of them to follow him.

After being protected by Feng Lai for the first time, the two remained unmoved and had no intention of letting go of Xue Liancheng.

The second time was screened by Oladipo, and it had some effect.

Because Oladipo and Xue Liancheng are covering each other, Oladipo blocks people for him.

He is actually blocking for Oladipo.

After blocking the man, Oladipo went straight to the basket, but Thompson failed to follow.

At this moment.

Iguodala was shaken and went to talk to Oladipo.

Taking advantage of the Warriors' uncoordinated gap, Xue Liancheng broke out of the siege and successfully received the ball.

At this time, he didn't have time to think too much.

What else could he think about in 1.1 seconds?

Can't think of anything.

He directly used the dynamic image in his mind to avoid Green's attack, stepped back and took action directly.

Moreover, the ball he threw was also based on the image that emerged in his mind, which was the general direction.

It really is a matter of life and death.

It tests technique, personal feeling, and the angle of the shot, especially luck.

It is completely the imprint of a basketball player's deep-rooted shooting action day after day.

Remember, the awakening of the shooting muscles will make him on target.

If you don't remember it well, it's pure ignorance.

That's right.

Just being blind.

Many times, the key player who hits the buzzer-beater doesn't have time to adjust his shooting posture, so he just throws towards the basket based on his feeling.

If you feel good about the ball, just score.

If you don't feel good about the ball, then you lose and you will be criticized by the media and fans.

Now, Xue Liancheng is in this state.

Under infinite pressure, he took this last shot.

The ball passed through the air.

Xue Liancheng had fallen to the ground. He tried hard to raise his head to see if the beautiful arc could fit into the frame perfectly.

And then the next second.

The whole place was silent, and they didn't hear any movement on the field.

He knew he made the shot.

In an instant.

He only felt his blood surge, and his whole body felt like he was about to fly.

The crazy look of his teammates rushing over also confirmed this.

He made the shot.

This was the first time he made a game-killing shot without cheating with his golden thigh, which had 100% hitting skills.

That feeling is completely different.

In the past, when he made key shots, he dominated everything with his 100% hitting skills, and did not feel the thrill of life and death moments.

And now.

He felt it.

The blood is boiling.

No wonder many players regard the goal that killed the game as the highlight of their careers.

That feeling is crazy and unforgettable, it is the release of my competitive nature that loves basketball.

The commentator was so excited that he almost jumped up: "Oh my God! Xue Liancheng is indeed the strongest man in the league. He once again killed the game, staged a fatal blow, and contributed a wonderful killing scene. "

The commentator was also extremely excited: "Xue Liancheng looked particularly excited today. He was also cheering for his magical shot. Such a scene is rare."

Host: "Yes, this may be the most exciting game for Xue Liancheng. He defeated his old rival and defeated the unstoppable number one in the league. This is indeed an exciting moment."

Everyone thought that Xue Liancheng was excited about defeating Curry and killing the Warriors.

In fact.

This was Xue Liancheng's performance that truly killed the game for the first time.

How could such a moment not be exciting and exciting?
