Chapter 472: Killer Bee (1/4!) )
The pause came back for the last minute and a half.
If the Celtics want to keep the suspense of the game until the end, they will have to score this goal.
"Defend! Defend! ”
This time, without the help of a live DJ, the fans who stood up were already cheering for the home team with their loudest voices.
In the huge stadium, the air is filled with the smell of gunsmoke.
The adrenaline of all the players on the field is rising.
Bass's tactics were misplaced, causing Rondo on the outside to roar hoarsely and almost jump.
The Cavaliers' defensive intensity forced the Celtics to struggle.
Seeing that the offensive time was more than halfway through, the Celtics' positional battle did not run.
The players didn't know what to do.
Rondo showed unprecedented composure, motioning for Pierce to come out and catch the ball, and then let everyone pull away from the baseline.
Pierce took the ball to Butler, and the Celtics had seven seconds of offensive time in the end.
Without much time to hesitate, Pierce squeezed past Butler's continuous shaking and physical confrontation.
At this moment, Carter, who was on the weak side, was experienced and came directly to the bag.
At this time, it is too late to pass the ball, and it is difficult to make sure of the shot under the bag.
At the final moment, Pierce directly chose a big step-back, retreated beyond the three-point line, and fell back for three points in the face of Carter's flying pounce.
The Cavaliers played a perfect defense, and Pierce's shot was extremely difficult.
"Bang!"
The ball was interfered with and smashed directly into the rebound.
But after the rebound, it still went in!
The scene was in an uproar.
Three points for killing!
Pierce pouted and thumped his hand on the chest.
"Truth!"
Big heart!
This three-pointer pulled the Celtics back from the edge of the cliff.
88 to 89!
The difference is 1 point!
There is 1 minute left in the game!
Tang Tian stretched out his hand and called a timeout.
"Take it easy, we're still one point ahead, we still have the ball, the initiative is still on our side!" As soon as the players got off the field, Tang Tian shouted at them loudly.
"Sean, you're ready to play, let's open the space, Chris, you come and play the breakout, all the attention of the Celtics will be on you, our pitchers will have a chance to kill the opponent, but I trust each and every one of you, understand?!"
"Toot!"
There was a sound of timeout coming from the sidelines.
"No, Vallejo, you take Jimmy, and if you can't score, we need this offensive rebound, understand?" Tang Tian temporarily changed his mind again.
"Coach, it's timeout." The referee came over to remind him at this time.
"Up! Above! Take it easy! We have the edge! Tang Tian nodded to the referee, turned around and finally shouted at his teammates.
After the pause, the hearts of the fans at the scene were all hanging in their throats.
Paul dribbles to press time in the front court and is also reading the Celtics' defense.
When the offensive time entered 15 seconds, Battier pulled directly outside the three-point line to block and pick.
One gear, one demolition, Paul dribbled, one accelerated, and dribbled straight through the gaps of Bass and Rondo.
This one drilled through was simply magical, and Pierce and Ray Allen didn't hesitate and directly put their respective defenders to help defend it.
Paul was still accelerating, he jumped up and split the ball directly.
The ball flew straight to Green in the bottom corner.
Green received the ball with a big open space.
The Cavaliers played a perfect offense!
Without the slightest hesitation, Green received the ball and shot directly.
The eyes of the audience were drawn over.
If this three-point goal is scored, it is equivalent to directly pronouncing the death sentence of the Celtics!
"Bang!"
There was a muffled sound, and the ball hit the basket and bounced in and out.
The scene was in an uproar.
Green's open three-pointer, didn't shoot!
Under the basket, Yao Ming and Stiesma scramble, the ball was slapped on the rebound, Garnett rushed over at this time, Vallejo used his thick body to kill the owner and he was not allowed to get close to the basket.
Yao Ming and Steensma fought for the basket again, and the ball was slapped to the rebound.
Basketball has turned into volleyball.
At this moment, a figure rushed in from the outside, flew up, and grabbed the ball in his hand.
Carter!
"UFO" didn't score a flying score this time, but used his bounce to grab one of the most crucial offensive rebounds!
Carter landed, and Garnett finally squeezed past Vallejo and pounced.
"Ball! Ball! ”
Just then, Paul was jumping on the outside for the ball.
Carter shook his hand and passed the ball out.
Paul was also an open three-point opportunity.
The eyes of the fans at the scene were glowing golden.
Paul takes the ball and Rondo pounces.
However, Paul did not mean to make a move, and motioned for the whole team to start a steady rhythm.
The originally tense situation suddenly became relaxed.
At this time, the players are all congested with blood, and only a player like Paul can always remain calm.
There were 30 seconds left in the game, but the Cavaliers still had a crucial one-point lead.
"No foul! No foul! Rivers also shouted loudly from the sidelines.
At this time, as long as the Celtics defend this round, then they have a chance to kill, and the initiative is on their side.
Paul pressed for 5 seconds, waited until all of his teammates had calmed down, and then signaled to play the previous pick-and-roll tactic.
But this time, the Celtics were clearly on guard, whether it was a pick-and-roll with the ball or a pick-and-roll without the ball, they were all blocked.
Time is running out and there aren't many options left.
“5! 4! ……”
Fans began to count down on the sidelines to remind Paul of the time to attack.
Paul couldn't shake off space in the face of Rondo's continuous change of direction, he dribbled to the outside of the three-point line, and pulled up a three-pointer directly against Rondo's interference.
Rondo's defense was well placed, and his hand was almost close to Paul's shot.
The ball flew past his fingertips.
"Toot!"
The whistle sounded at 24 seconds.
The scene was suddenly quiet, and the spinning basketball touched everyone's hearts.
"Huh!"
A crisp sound, as if it were the most beautiful sound in the world.
Paul's three-pointer is in!
After a short silence, the entire arena exploded.
Paul raised his hands and turned around, his expression calm and handsome.
The Cavaliers were all ready to rush up to celebrate.
It was at this moment that the Celtics sent the ball out of the backcourt.
"Pause, they didn't pause!" Carter reacted quickly and shouted directly from the sidelines, shouting and rushing towards Pierce.
Pierce jumped up and threw the ball at Ray Allen, who was running forward.
No one is following Ray Allen, and when the ball is passed and thrown, the Celtics have one last chance of life.
"Smack!"
At that moment, a figure appeared in the passing route like lightning and snatched the ball down.
Paul!
After reacting, he sprinted at full speed and directly robbed the Celtics of the last ray of life.
Running wildly with the ball in his hand, he dodged everyone's pursuit and interception, and threw the ball into the air at the moment of the final whistle.
Cavaliers, win!
7 points and 1 steal in the last 3 minutes, Chris Paul, "Killer Bee"!
