NBA: I am the card dealer

Randall and the others quickly retreated, all pressing to both sides of the bottom corner, leaving Xue Liancheng standing there alone, looking particularly dazzling and outstanding.

of course.

Claude in front of Xue Liancheng was also very eye-catching.

only.

Claude was not as leisurely as Xue Liancheng. His nerves were tense and he stared at Xue Liancheng intently, not missing any of his moves.

The clock is ticking.

The suffocating feeling of oppression became more and more intense.

at last.

With only 9 seconds left in the attack time, Xue Liancheng moved.

He stepped forward.

start up.

Pull back.

Move forward again.

The two people's bodies come into contact and the collision begins.

Xue Liancheng's physical strength was indeed strong, and Claude was squeezed out, and had no way to stop Xue Liancheng from moving forward.

not only.

When he reached the three-point line, Claude had been left half a body length behind, and the defensive interference was very limited.

If Xue Liancheng was allowed to rush forward, it would be easy for the ball to penetrate the basket.

and so.

Oladipo and James, who were standing close to each other on both sides, reacted quickly and launched a double-attack.

But the Lakers were not stupid either. They began to move from the bottom corner and move up along the three-point line. Vonleh and Randle started to cut in at the same time, obviously to attract the attention of the defense.

But the thing is, you can't just ignore it.

Because if you ignore it, they will really rush in.

result.

Naturally, James Johnson and Courtney Lee were left out.

Logically speaking, this complete loss of position must be filled in time to make the entire defense chain complete.

But James Johnson and Courtney Lee haven't made any three-pointers since the first quarter.

They naturally felt that double-teaming Xue Liancheng was much more cost-effective than defending James Johnson and Courtney Lee.

This is the capital they dare to invest.

The result is naturally obvious.

Faced with double-teaming from Claude, Oladipo and James in front, behind, and on both sides, Xue Liancheng had no choice but to pass the ball.

The ball was given to Courtney Lee.

The reason is that Courtney Lee's side is completely empty, while James Johnson's side is relatively closer to Claude. After receiving the ball, Claude can still rush over to defend and have an impact.

Otherwise, giving it to James Johnson is obviously the first choice. After all, James Johnson has been performing very stably since the playoffs and his three-point shooting quality is also very good.

Courtney Lee was obviously ready to catch the ball. As soon as he got the ball, he jumped and shot without any hesitation.

There was a clang.

The audience at the scene couldn't help but feel as if their hearts were gripped.

Unexpectedly, the bouncing ball actually went into the frame.

Three points!

in!

The audience suddenly jumped up.

This three-pointer is very crucial and can be said to be a life-saving shot.

After the three-pointer, the score between the two sides was 101:105. The Lakers narrowed the gap to 4 points with 2 minutes and 6 seconds left.

If this three-pointer could not be made, but the Knicks made it later, the score difference would have been in double digits.

There is no need to explain how big the difference is between a 10+ point difference and a 4 point difference.

The most important thing is that the time has come to this critical juncture, and the score difference is fatal.

and so.

It is no exaggeration to say that this three-pointer was a life-saving shot.

This can be seen from the host's exclamation: "Oh my God! Courtney Lee is a success! This three-pointer is so crucial, it keeps the Lakers' chance of a comeback."

Commentator: "Although there is an element of luck, it is also part of strength. The Knicks were too ruthless and left Courtney Lee too open, which led to the Lakers scoring in this round. The suspense was raised again."

The commentator said bluntly: "It's just a pity that Xue Liancheng still didn't stand up."

If Xue Liancheng had made this three-pointer, the deterrent effect would have been overwhelming.

Now it's Courtney Lee's three-pointer, and the effect is completely different.

And look back.

Oladipo stepped up and responded with a mid-range shot.

101:107, the score difference was reduced to 6 points, and there was only 1 minute and 49 seconds left.

Lakers offense.

Xue Liancheng pushed the ball over and after he reached the center circle, he gestured again.

——Everyone move out, I want to play solo.

But this time there was no suffocating feeling like in the last round.

After all, Xue Liancheng's pass just now was already invisibly consuming his deterrent power.

Time is passing slowly.

Claude wasn't that nervous, and actually challenged him: "Xue! Passing the ball isn't your style!"

Xue Liancheng smiled and said, "You still know me well, so I won't pass the ball this time."

As soon as these words came out.

Claude's nerves, which had relaxed, tensed up again in an instant.

After all, we have been teammates for a year, so we are somewhat familiar with each other.

He was just provoking her casually, hoping to stir up Xue Liancheng's personal emotions. If it could backfire on Xue Liancheng's emotions, that would be great.

In the end, Xue Liancheng just smiled and answered. This calmness and composure were enough to show Xue Liancheng's confidence.

As a former teammate, Claude has a deep understanding of Xue Liancheng's personal abilities.

Since Xue Liancheng said so, it is very likely that he is serious about it.

Host: "Is Xue Liancheng going to come alone this time?"

Commentator: "Logically speaking, this is the time when Xue Liancheng's rage is triggered. I think there is a high probability that Xue Liancheng will come on his own!"

Commentator: "Xue Liancheng is indeed omnipotent, but he is not a god. There were many times when he failed to save the team. I think we should still look at it rationally."

Commentator: "If Xue Liancheng can't stand up and win the game, then the Lakers' season is over. I think this is definitely not the end. Xue Liancheng will never give up so easily."

While several people were talking, the offensive time had reached 9 seconds.

Xue Liancheng started to move.

Another step forward.

sprint.

Pull back.

Then press on from the other side.

Then physical contact.

The two of them moved forward in collision.

Claude learned his lesson this time and no longer tried so hard to block during the confrontation. Instead, he pushed with his arms and moved his feet sideways.

This way it won’t be so easy to lose your position!

But Xue Liancheng didn't care at all. The moment he rushed to the three-point line, he suddenly retreated and completed the pass.

Claude was startled and rushed over with all his might.

It was only after takeoff that he realized he had been tricked, but it was too late.

Xue Liancheng paused for a moment, waited for Claude to fly over, and then jumped again. The two of them collided successfully.

During the collision, Xue Liancheng pushed the ball out.

Just feel the position of the basket and throw it casually.

Beep!

The whistle sounded.

Xue Liancheng resisted the urge to activate the 100% hit rate skill.

Host: "Foul?"

Commentator: "This is a possible solution, but it is not easy to turn the tables by relying on this method."

Obviously.

In the view of commentators, this method of committing fouls is not honorable, and even consumes the deterrent power established by Xue Liancheng.

The commentator had a different view: "Only by narrowing the gap can they have a chance of a comeback. This is the reality."

And on the court.

Xue Liancheng has already stepped onto the free throw line.

Claude shook his head and said with disdain: "Xue! This is not the you I know. You need to make the shot instead of relying on the referee's care to win the O'Brien Cup."

Xue Liancheng still showed no sign of anger. He still smiled slightly: "Yes! I will. I will try my best in the next round."

Claude opened his mouth but said nothing.

After all, they had been teammates before and had a pleasant collaboration. Not only did he get a big contract, he also lifted the championship trophy. There is no doubt that the Knicks last season were a success.

It's impossible to say that I'm not grateful to Xue Liancheng.

So, he naturally wouldn't be as eloquent as others and criticize their entire family.

Moreover, Xue Liancheng acted too calmly, without any emotional response, making you feel as if your punch hit cotton.

Xue Liancheng was still steady and made all three free throws.

104:107, the score difference has come to the last 3 points.

There was 1 minute and 28 seconds left in the game.

There was really not much time left, but the score difference was within a controllable range, which undoubtedly made the fans' hearts rise to their throats.

The suspense is building.

This is exactly the kind of game that fans love to watch.

The live broadcast comment section has been scrolling like crazy.

"Knicks champions!"

"There are only a few rounds left, come on!"

"Hold on for the last minute or so, and the championship is within reach."

"Xue Liancheng is no longer good. Now all he can do is to scam people."

"When I saw Xue Liancheng's fraud, I knew the Knicks had secured the championship. James was finally going to prove himself."

"James, it's time to crush all doubts with your iron fist."

"As long as we score in this round, it's basically a sure win."

Knicks fans and James fans have already started popping champagne.

Especially James' fans, they have begun to imagine that Xue Liancheng is no longer good. Although the 3-point advantage is not much, it is enough for them to fantasize.

Because Xue Liancheng was not like this before. If he signaled to play one-on-one, he would basically attack on his own and shoot three-pointers very aggressively.

And what is the situation now?

Xue Liancheng passed the ball and also committed a foul, which clearly gave people the feeling that the player was at the end of his strength.

That's why they are ecstatic.

The Knicks attacked next.

They really succeeded in this attack.

However, it was not James or Oladipo. Instead, it was James who subconsciously broke through and passed the ball. Claude missed the three-pointer, but was picked up by PJ Tucker under the basket and made a tip-in.

in this way.

The score between the two sides became 104:109, with the Lakers trailing by 5 points.

There is only 1 minute and 5 seconds left in the game and it is about to enter the countdown phase.

The live broadcast comment section was really going wild this time.

"The champion is really waving this time!"

"Haha! The Knicks' championship team was not bad to begin with. Even if Xue Liancheng was replaced by James, they would still win the championship."

"James finally saw the rainbow. It wasn't easy!"

"By winning this championship, James has completely proved himself. It's not because of him, but because of his former teammate Le Se."

"The Knicks have won two consecutive championships. Is the New York dynasty far away?"

They were all extremely excited. The score difference of 5 points allowed them to see the golden trophy.

After all, Xue Liancheng has not stepped forward to turn the tide at this time, and it is obviously unrealistic for him to suddenly attack in the remaining minute.

The host also gave this opinion: "PJ Tucker's tip-in is worth a thousand gold and may be the winning shot. Because Xue Liancheng still shows no signs of standing up, the Lakers are already in great danger."

Commentator: "Xue Liancheng never disappoints anyone, this time..."

He didn't say any more, but it was obvious.

Two consecutive rounds, one pass and one touch, this is definitely not Xue Liancheng's playing style. To put it bluntly, Xue Liancheng showed no sign of winning the game.

This is undoubtedly a very disappointing fact.

Not only the commentary team was disappointed, but the audience at the scene was also extremely disappointed. The look in their eyes when they looked at Xue Liancheng revealed endless frustration.

And the game continues.

The Lakers showed no sign of calling a timeout. Randle served the ball normally and Xue Liancheng advanced quickly.

Come to the center circle.

Xue Liancheng stretched out his hand again and signaled to pull everything open.

What no one expected was that he had just made the gesture and started it suddenly without waiting for others to react.

Claude was caught off guard by this sneak attack and didn't have time to react.

Xue Liancheng successfully rushed to the three-point line, then stopped suddenly and shot directly.

Three points!

in!

Before anyone could react, the round was over.

The scene suddenly became chaotic with a loud bang, and then it collapsed.

More than ten thousand people!

You can imagine how spectacular the scene would be if they all jumped up at the same time.

The commentator who was explaining the game also jumped up excitedly after seeing Xue Liancheng score a goal: "Oh my God! Xue Liancheng! He's finally here! It's this familiar feeling."

The host was also screaming: "Xue Liancheng is here! The competition is not over yet, and the winner is still a huge suspense."

The Knicks players and staff on the sidelines were really excited when they saw Xue Liancheng make the three-pointer.

For no reason, I just felt my heart being shaken.

Then came the unstoppable heart palpitations.

It was like: It's over! Death is coming!

In this round, Xue Liancheng only took 10 seconds to finish.

With 55 seconds left, the score became 107:109, and the Knicks' lead was only 2 points.

This is not the point.

The key point is that after Xue Liancheng pushed it over, he voted without hesitation.

There was no wasting time or nagging you, it just looked like the Grim Reaper was coming, and it was obvious that they were winning the game.

How can this not make people feel chilled?

Look back.

Instead, the Knicks tried to delay time as much as possible. James finally took on the responsibility of a leader, controlling the game from beginning to end, and finally completing a forced mid-range shot against time.

result!

Really not!

The Lakers started a fast break.

Xue Liancheng directly chased and shot three points.

Hit again!

This time.

Knicks fans, and even James fans, were terrified.

In 33 seconds, the Lakers overtook the opponent 110:109.

The scene was really exciting!

Everybody was jumping and dancing like crazy and hugging everybody.

Commentator: "The Grim Reaper is really here. Can the Knicks stop him?"

Commentator: "Before the game whistle blows, everything is possible, especially for Xue Liancheng's team."

Host: "There is no doubt that he is the greatest player of this century. He once again saved the Lakers and brought them back to life."
