I’m Really Playing Basketball

To be fair, because of the lessons learned by the Nets and the Cavaliers in G1, Phil Jackson was really quite flustered when he saw Chen Xiao's behavior of summoning his teammates to cheer.

After all, things really happened!

And this game entered the fourth quarter, the Nets leading points and G1 are exactly the same 12 points.

For Phil Jackson, a 12-point lead is good, but just like New York fans saw a 6-point lead at 18.7 seconds, Phil Jackson is now a little frustrated when he sees himself leading by 12 points into the fourth quarter.

However, as a nine-time coach, Phil Jackson's frustration is just a fleeting emotion.

Moreover, the Nets fans before the Nets bench also gave him a lot of confidence.

Look at the extremely focused eyes on Shaq, Malone and Carter's faces.

Malone and O'Neal played very well in the third quarter of this game.

In the third quarter of this game, the Nets' performance has completely exceeded his expectations for the team in the third quarter.

He just expected to draw 6 points in the third quarter, which is already very good, but the Nets led by O'Neal and Malone in the third quarter inevitably pulled a 10 point difference!

Of course, in order to open up such a big point difference, O'Neal and Malone played very hard in the third quarter.

When I was sitting down the court, my breathing was very rapid, and the sweat on my face continued to flow out involuntarily.

Ma Long won't talk about it.

Having partnered with O'Neal for so many years, Phil Jackson has never seen such an O'Neal.

He has never seen O'Neal so focused and working so hard in a game!

Seeing O'Neal and Malone who consumed so much in order to win more in the third quarter at this time, Phil Jackson became even more nervous while gratifying.

According to his estimates, in the fourth quarter of this game, he gave O'Neal and Malone a break of about eight minutes.

Now, seeing that O'Neal and Malone are somewhat collapsed at this time, he feels that 8 minutes may not be enough.

"At least six minutes, Shaq and Carl need at least six minutes of rest in the fourth quarter, and it is a continuous rest!"

Leading by 12 points, but without Shaq and Carl for six consecutive minutes, the Nets' current situation is indeed very good.

But there are variables.

"Phil, I won't let the score return to within three points before Shaq and Carl are on the court!"

Seeing the extremely serious expression on Carter's face at this time, Phil Jackson's anxiety once again became relieved after a moment.

He believes in Super Giant very much.

His coaching philosophy is to believe in super giants.

When Karl and Shaq are unable to play, as long as the Nets players have super giants on the court, then he can have expectations.

And Carter, without a doubt, is also the super giant he can trust.

Although in the Nets this season, Carter has been relatively silent, not to mention incompatible with the team.

Indeed, Carter is in the Nets and feels very isolated from the team this season.

Phil Jackson is understandable. After all, Carter was the first super giant to come to the Nets. He did not come to the Nets to build an invincible lineup of F7 in the Nets.

After a season of silence.

At the most critical moment of the team, Carter still stood up.

"Vince, the magic kid of the Cavaliers and James did not have enough physical strength on the defensive end in this game. They are likely to play the fourth quarter in the fourth quarter. There is no time for Shaq and Carl in these six minutes. I don’t need you to keep the point difference above 3 points. I only ask that when Shaq and Carl are on the court, we are ahead."

Phil Jackson's requirements for this six minutes without O'Neal and Malone are very low.

On the other side, the Cavaliers' bench, it is obvious that Chen Xiao's cheering and cheering of teammates in the middle circle has a great impact on the Cavaliers players.

After returning to the court, many Cavaliers players discovered that Chen Xiao was right!

Don't look at us now 12 points behind, in fact, this game is completely different from G1.

O'Neal and Malone were extremely exhausted in this game.

By the fourth quarter, the two are likely to be out for a long time.

For the Cavaliers, Chen Xiao and James focused on offense in this game, while Chandler, Diop and Miles focused on defense.

It can be said that these younger players of the Cavaliers have a very clear division of labor in this game, and the physical exertion is not that big.

In this game, James was ubiquitous on the defensive end without G1. Chen Xiao, like G1, had very little defensive consumption.

The two can play together in the fourth quarter of this game.

If O'Neal and Malone are not there, and Chen Xiao and James are both at the same time, this situation has never happened in this series.

Very beneficial to the Cavaliers.

So at the end of the third quarter, Barkley said that the Cavaliers could despair.

Barkley finished speaking, but Kenny Smith next to him agreed with Chen Xiao's words that the game has just begun!

"The first six minutes of the fourth quarter are very critical. These six minutes are a desperate situation for the Cavaliers and the Nets. Both teams need to find their own vitality in the desperate situation."

Kenny Smith finished, the Cavaliers and Nets players have once again returned to the court.

At the beginning of the fourth quarter of the Cavaliers, the players remaining on the court were James, Crawford, Korver, Chen Xiao and Diop.

Chandler and Miles need to rest because they have played 36 minutes in a row.

The players on the Nets side are Payton, Carter, Richard Jefferson, Martin and Mourning.

There are no Malone and O'Neal, but because Carter is still on the court, the Nets' rotation in the fourth quarter is much stronger than they did in the second quarter.

Because of the strong play of O'Neal and Malone in the third quarter, the score between the two sides was 92 to 80 when entering the fourth quarter, and the Cavaliers fell behind by a full 12 points.

In the fourth quarter, the only goal of the Cavaliers is to chase points.

"Boys, before O'Neal and Malone, I hope you can overtake the score!"

Carlisle's request is simple.

Whether the Cavaliers will get God's favor at the end of the fourth quarter, he doesn't know.

But what he knows is that during the period when O'Neal and Malone can't play, it may be the real last chance for the Cavaliers!

Boys, come on!

Carlisle clenched his fists tightly as he watched Chen Xiao's back when he brought the Cavaliers players on the field.

The 12-point difference is neither big nor small, so Carlisle is an offensive lineup of one big and four small for the Cavaliers.

At the beginning of the fourth quarter, James quickly dribbled the ball through the half.

To get the score back in the absence of O'Neal and Malone, you need to beat the speed of the offense.

After James dribbled the ball to half-court, the surrounding area was swept away, and the Nets' defense against Chen Xiao was still very deadly.

Even though the Cavaliers have four very good offensive players on the court, even if the Cavaliers are a big or four junior, the Nets still put the focus of defense on Chen Xiao's hands.

So when James pushed the ball through halftime, Yu Guang saw Carter sticking to Chen Xiao, and Richard Jefferson was defending him, but he didn’t look at him directly. , But constantly making small steps in the direction of Chen Xiao.

As for Crawford's side, Payton is constantly battling Crawford physically, without the ball.

It has to be said that Payton’s defensive experience is really better than Fisher. Players like Crawford, after he receives the ball, it is too late to defend. When he needs the ball, he is very big. Confrontation to affect his state and physical stamina.

No way, Payton is the glove that successfully defended Jordan after all. Jordan is the grandfather of Crawford's type of player.

Payton is very experienced in defending this type of player.

Xiao Zhan is a very smart player. He knows that the Nets' defense is just letting him offense!

Whether it's shooting or breaking through, he is casual.

In the end, in order to attack quickly, James did not cooperate with Chen Xiao or Crawford.

Because he knew that even after finishing the match, he would still have to rush in the end.

Instead of doing this, it's better to save time directly!

In the face of James' breakthrough, Richard Jefferson directly gave in.

Even after letting it go, Richard Jefferson did not follow James to the basket, but still helped defend Chen Xiao, who was stuck tightly by Carter.

LeBron's breakthrough was very powerful, Mourning was waiting at the basket, and Martin, who had been assisting Korver, was already preparing to move to the basket when James broke through.

The two points that James broke through the basket to challenge Mourning and Martin were deliberately released by the Nets.

Although Mourning's athletic ability is not good now, but the defensive experience is still very good, standing defense is still top-notch.

A breakthrough like James's, in fact, may not have a great effect.

Coupled with Martin's help defense pressure...

Yes, it's not Martin's help defense, it's Martin's help defense pressure!

In the breakthrough, Zhan Yuguang clearly felt that Martin was actually pretending to help defend under the basket, and he was actually facing Korver.

"He is inducing me to pass the ball to Korver!"

In the face of Martin's inducement to break the ball, James gave up all temptations and the option of breaking the ball, but went directly to the basket.

Facing Mourning with both hands up, James took a European step. After breaking through Mourning's side, he made a drifting throw and threw the net in his hands to the basket.

James didn't make it hard. He knew that the hardest thing waiting for him was a Mourning foul, and he made a free throw.

Mourning would definitely not give him a phone meeting.

It's not cost-effective.

Such a European step caused a side collision. Whether the shot can be missed, at least one foul is guaranteed.

Bang!

James missed a difficult and elegant throw, the whistle sounded, and Mourning fouled.

2 free throws.

2 free throws!

This season, don't look at Xiao Zhan's low shooting percentage, his free throws are quite accurate, and his shooting percentage is higher than Chen Xiao, close to 76%.

82 to 92!

The Cavaliers relied on Xiao Zhan's breakthrough kill and recovered two points.

Looking back, the Nets attacked.

For the Cavaliers who are chasing points, it doesn't matter how many points are scored in the offense. One point, two points, or three points are fine.

But to defend, you must defend!

The Cavaliers lineup now has two defensive colanders, Crawford and Korver.

To defend the Nets offense, Chen Xiao and James can imagine how much effort it takes.

Crawford was forced to harass Payton under the command of Chen Xiao.

It's better to be able to steal, but can also delay the Nets' offensive rhythm.

Of course, as the leader, the Nets' offense is suspected of delaying time.

For the Cavaliers, even if you let the Nets drag the time, they must not be allowed to score.

Faced with Crawford, who was pressing and delaying himself in the audience, Payton, who had dribbled for more than 15 seconds this time, was not in a hurry, but rather calmly called Carter, who had thrown away Chen Xiao with Mourning's cover, to his side.

From this we can see how terrible Crawford's defensive quality and pressing quality are.

Payton and Carter after a pick-and-roll.

Payton threw the basketball in Carter's hand, and he ran over to hug Chen Xiao who threw Mourning to defend.

Both Payton and Mourning have problems with their athletic abilities. Their offense is now unstable, but they are no different from human beings in terms of defensive skills and confrontational skills.

Carter faced Crawford's defense, easily leaned back and then turned around to break Crawford.

After breaking through Crawford, Carter did not choose to shoot, but went straight to the basket and challenged Diop like James challenged Mourning before.

Carter shoots well, but as long as it is shooting, even the **** of shooting is risky.

Therefore, for the Nets, scoring is the most important!

Foul!

Facing the strong Diop under the basket, Carter stepped on the Hot Wheels and went straight up.

Watching Carter do this, Phil Jackson on the sidelines clenched his fists tightly.

"We can definitely win this game!"

In the face of Carter's suicide attack, Diop is actually very embarrassed.

The foul is not good because he has to defend O'Neal later.

No foul, Carter took the initiative to find fouls, after all, he is not as flexible as Chandler and Miles.

During Diop's hesitation...

Beep beep beep!

A hurried voice came. Before Carter made Diop's foul, James ditched his defensive player Richard Jefferson and used his super mobility to foul Carter in advance.

The Nets sent a sideline kick. This time the Cavaliers switched defenses. Chen Xiao continued to defend Carter, while James switched defenses to Payton.

After the Nets made a free throw from the sideline, the opportunity appeared in Richard Jefferson's hands. Richard Jefferson broke through for a layup and was blocked by Diop.

Jefferson's layup skills are not the same as Carter's layup skills. Carter's impact can pose a huge threat to Diop.

It was the Cavaliers' turn to attack. The first offense and one defense in the fourth quarter took a full 40 seconds. Now there are 11 minutes and 20 seconds left in the fourth quarter. Time has become even more urgent for the Cavaliers.

So chasing two points and two points is definitely not so easy.

The Cavaliers are actively looking for three-pointers.

In the 20-second offensive time planning, when the Cavaliers finally handed the basketball to Chen Xiao, when Chen Xiao was about to shoot...

Beep beep beep!

There was another rapid voice.

The moment James passed the ball to Chen Xiao, Payton in front of James already fouled.

Seeing this scene, Chen Xiao who received the ball was stunned.

It's not just Chen Xiao, the Nets fans at the scene, and the audience in front of the TV.

There was also a commentary on the sidelines, and all were stunned at this time.

"Foul tactics at the beginning of the fourth quarter?!"

"And as long as Wonder Boy receives the ball, whether it is a chance or not, he must foul in advance?!"

"It's too hard for the Nets to survive the six minutes without O'Neal and Malone?"

"They are the strongest team in history. They face the Cavaliers and still lead by 12 points. Is that necessary?!"

"How scared are they by Wonder Boy, they will make such a choice of killing 1,000 enemies and 1,500 self-damaging them!"

When the Nets used this trick against the Cavaliers, both the American audience and the Chinese audience were stunned.

Even Wade and Yao Ming in front of the TV were a little dumbfounded.

"Does it need to be so shameless?"

To be reasonable, this is really shameless.

Even Phil Jackson himself thought his actions like this were shameless.

It doesn't matter if you say I am afraid of the Wonder Boy in the fourth quarter, or I am shameless.

I don't care.

"Now, I just want to win!"

The game in the fourth quarter has been played for 1 minute, but Wonder Boy has never made a shot. This is the victory I want!

"Without the magical three-pointers of Wonder Boy, it is not easy for the Cavaliers to catch points!"

"Kenny, you never thought that the Nets, as the strongest team in history, would be scared by Wonder Boy to do such a thing, right? This is to let go of all the teams for the victory of the game."

Facing Barkley's teasing, Kenny Smith nodded dubiously.

I really didn't expect it.

"The Nets have the strongest strength in history. When they can do this for victory, the victory will only be theirs. In this game, the Cavaliers really have no chance."

After the first six minutes of the fourth quarter, the Cavaliers and the Nets scored 100 to 94 on the court. The Cavaliers faced the Nets rotation without Malone and O'Neal and recovered 6 points.

The score went from 12 points, it took half a quarter to get back 6 points, this is indeed very successful.

The Nets' early foul tactics are very successful.

Similarly, Carter's breakthrough style of throwing himself like a cannonball in the past six minutes is also very successful.

The Nets scored 8 points in half of the quarter, and 6 of these 8 points were obtained by Carter through free throws, and 2 points were Carter's layup.

Therefore, when Carter took the Nets players off the court during the official timeout, Phil Jackson, who was welcoming the Nets players next to him, gave Carter a big hug.

After that, Malone, O'Neal, all embraced Carter fiercely.

"Vince, you are a hero!"

Phil Jackson looked at Carter emotionally and said excitedly.

Although the early foul tactics are very useful, if there is no place for Carter, in his expectation, the difference between the two sides will definitely be indented to within three points.

Unexpectedly, Carter used his body and madness to grab an unexpected score for the Nets without a chance.

If the Nets can finally win this game, then Carter's madness in these six minutes is a great contribution!

The timeout ends and the game restarts.

Six minutes before the fourth quarter, the Nets' early foul tactics were very successful.

Now that the two sides are starting, the Nets have no reason to give up such an early foul tactic.

You know, Darius Myers’ free throw percentage is 52% lower than Diop’s 60%!

As long as Chen Xiao gets the ball, he will foul in advance and send Miles to a free throw!

Some of the Nets players can perform foul tactics.

And more importantly, after Malone and O'Neal played, the Nets' offensive ability was too strong!

As long as Miles misses two free throws, or one, the Nets will earn blood!

Seeing that the Nets are now going to use such shameless tactics to the end, how could Carlisle on the sidelines endure it?

With a big wave, Crawford and Korver replaced Diop and Miles.

"Carlisle is going to fight Phil Jackson?!"

"The Cavaliers are going to chop the shark!"

"Crazy, crazy, the Cavaliers and Nets are actually starting to attack the sharks!"

Watching the Nets cut Chandler on the court and the Cavaliers cut O'Neal.

The commentary on the sidelines and the audience in front of the TV went crazy.

For them, they really did not expect this game to be like this.

In Chandler and O'Neal's penalty shootout, the two played a 50-50 in this game.

In the game, there are still 2 minutes left, when the two sides finally have no way to cut.

At this time, the score of the two sides on the court is 112 to 104!

With less than 2 minutes left in the game, the Nets actually led by 8 points.

Seeing this time and looking at the score again, the Nets fans on the scene have been completely desperate.

Yes, desperate.

Not to mention the Nets fans at the scene, even the Chinese fans in front of the TV, at this time are already desperate.

"There is no chance, the Cavaliers have no chance!"

"Congratulations to the Nets for winning a cruel victory in a cruel game!"

On the sidelines, Barkley is already shouting for the Nets' victory.

On the court, the game between the two teams continues.

At 1 minute and 02 seconds before the end of the game, the Cavaliers' lag continued, and it was still 8 points short. In the past minute, neither team scored in sports games. Although they could not hack, they were still fouling crazy.

But this time, the Nets seemed to have no fouls. James missed a shot after breaking through, but Chandler grabbed a long rebound and assigned the ball to Chen Xiao. Richard Jefferson fouled and Chen Xiao made 2 free throws.

The Nets didn't foul but didn't foul James.

After that, the Nets made a baseline ball. Time was running out. The Cavaliers were forced to take foul tactics. Fisher made two free throws and the gap was 8 points.

At this point, there are 44.2 seconds left.

The time of 44.2 seconds is 8 points behind!

How desperate is this?

"It looks like the madness of the Cavaliers in the playoffs this season is over."

McGrady in front of the TV said to Duncan next to him with a little regret.

"It seems that the final winner is the Nets."

The voice just fell.

At this time, on TV, Chen Xiao, who was double-screened by Chandler and Diop and received a pass from James, quickly completed a three-pointer!

Brush!

Three-pointer!

116 to 111!

There are 34.9 seconds left in the game.

"..."

Watching the Cavaliers No. 24, who made a three-pointer on TV, McGrady and Duncan didn't know what to say for a while.

A little silent.

The difficulty of Chen Xiao's shot was quite large. He pushed the defensive player away without the ball and then used a double screen to catch the ball quickly.

Not only is it difficult to shoot, but you must also know that this three-pointer is still Chen Xiao's first three-pointer in this game.

It can be said that the difficulty of hitting is greater than the difficulty of shooting.

But in the end, the ball still hit.

It can only be said that Chen Xiao is indeed a super powerful key gentleman.

but……

No matter how the key is, it is impossible to lead the Cavaliers to win at this time.

Less than 35 seconds behind is 5 points behind, and the opponent still has the ball.

So, although this three-pointer just now is very powerful~www.NovelMTL.com~ but...

"This three-pointer can't change anything."

It's not just McGrady who thinks so.

The commentaries on TV, the reporters at the scene, and the experts in front of the TV all thought so.

but……

Is it really?

At this time, no one knows what kind of storm will be next...

35 seconds, the time has come!
