Chapter 523 It's a critical moment again
As soon as An Luo shot the ball, everyone's movements almost stopped.Everyone's focus was on the orange ball that was spinning round and round.
Of course, at this point, every shot is emotional.Whether it is the Cavaliers or the Thunder, the opportunities are equal now.Whoever can seize the opportunity to score will have a great chance to win the final victory.
"Shh!"
After the basketball drew a beautiful arc in the air, it fell into the net bag.
95:94, the Thunder took the lead again!Although there is only one point, for the critical moment when the game is about to end, the leading side will always have more confidence.
"And it is!"
After the ball was scored, An Luo clenched his fist and swung it fiercely in the air twice.He was very excited and very satisfied with his goal this time.Although, he often makes such shots at such moments.But every time, it was a new experience for him.
Tyronn Lue is now on the sidelines, yelling at his players.It was obvious that he was very anxious.However, he did not call a timeout at this time.The entire Cavaliers only have one chance to pause, and he has to wait until the most critical time.Now, it's not the most critical moment.
George Hill pushed the ball beyond the three-point line and handed it to James.After the latter received the ball, he habitually stood at the top of the arc and paused.He began to look at the situation on the field, while directing his teammates to stand with his hands.The Thunder's defense is very tight.They adopted a man-to-man defensive tactic in the subsequent moments, and each position sent the player with the best single-defense ability in their team.
With 10 seconds left on the clock, James moved.Under the Thunder's defense, none of the Cavaliers' players could find a good opportunity.He can only choose to come by himself.But before that, he beckoned TT to pull him out to cover himself.Although he has many ways to close this shot, he needs to be more on the safe side.
Paul George and Adams switched defenses immediately, and there was no gap on the scene.Even so, in terms of Adams' defensive ability, it can't cause too much interference to James.The latter turned his shoulder slightly, squeezed hard, and hit the basket all at once.Although Adams was still closely behind him, there was not enough time for him to think about how to complete this attack.At this time, Robertson, who had retreated to the basket, also surrounded James.James is tantamount to plunged into the encirclement of the Thunder.
James wasn't panicking at all.After seeing Robertson moving over, he pulled his right hand, avoided Adams' interception in the air, and hung the ball from Robertson's head to Love.By the time the latter catches the ball, time is running out.He jumped straight up and threw the ball.The shot was quite hasty, but under the defense of the Thunder, it is not easy to be able to throw the ball.Love didn't even have time to straighten his body.It was completely twisted and shot.
"Ugh..."
The moment the basketball hit the rim, everyone in Cleveland was devastated.Everyone sighed at the same time, and the decibel was no lower than the previous cheers and boos.Originally, everyone's hearts were very hot, but it was extinguished by An Luo's three-pointer.But there are still opportunities, and they are still full of hope for this attack.It's a pity that this little flame was almost completely extinguished by Le Fu himself.
The reason why it was almost said was entirely due to James' subsequent actions.He rebounded off Westbrook and Adams and reignited the fire.
This rebound is worth a thousand dollars!He gave the Cavaliers a very valuable second chance.Tyronn Lue still didn't call a timeout, because after James grabbed the rebound, he rushed beyond the three-point line with a charge.His tactic is to give the ball to James at a critical time, and now that this step has been achieved, he doesn't need to interfere too much in the game.
James once again came outside the three-point line. At this time, there were 38 seconds before the end of the game.At this time, James decisively chose to attack.He stepped back, immediately opened the gap with Paul George, and then accelerated to start.James, who broke through with all his strength, was like a tank, full of pressure.In the NBA, last-minute physical contact is generally not whistled by the referee.The battle-tested James is naturally aware of such unspoken rules.So when he touched Paul George, he pushed him very covertly with his left hand.Under this push, the latter immediately took several steps back.James took this opportunity to take a step forward to the right, then pulled up and was about to throw the basketball.
There is nothing wrong with such an offensive choice, but it is still somewhat urgent.When the basketball hit the edge of the basket, James himself was a little frustrated, not to mention the fans at the scene.
Adams didn't let the rebound be taken away by the opponent this time.He stuck TT and Love alone at the basket, and Westbrook easily received the ball in his arms.Immediately afterwards, he rushed out of the knight's encirclement.
The Cavaliers dare not foul at this moment.Because their numbers have already been counted.Once a foul is committed, it is tantamount to sending the opponent to the free throw line for nothing.Therefore, they can only hope that their defense can make the opponent return without success.
Westbrook slowed down as soon as he crossed the halfway line, and he wanted to press time.They are now leading by 1 point, which means they are invincible.So no matter whether this attack is successful or not, as long as Westbrook runs out of time, the chances for the Cavaliers are very slim.
With 9 seconds left on the shot clock, Westbrook moved.He chose to play through Adams' cover.And the latter went down immediately after covering.The pick-and-roll cooperation between the two is the most stable and efficient offensive method in the Thunder's offensive system, so it is very correct to choose to play this way at the last moment.
Everyone thinks so, including the Cavaliers players.So their defense shrunk to the paint as Westbrook and Adams rushed to the board together.But Westbrook didn't choose to come by himself, and he didn't pass the ball to Adams. Instead, he took a round with his right hand and distributed the ball to An Luo in the left corner.
At this time, everyone gathered under the basket, even JR leaned in slightly.So An Luo's position is very good.After he caught the ball, without the slightest delay, he just pulled it up and threw the ball.
