Because of Tang Shuai's outstanding performance, Wharton did not replace Tang Shuai in the entire third quarter.

At the end of the third quarter, Miller couldn't help but say, "I think the matter about whether Don can deliver 20 assists can be over." ”

Tang Shuai played the whole third quarter, and he also lived up to expectations, delivering an astonishing 9 assists in a single quarter, increasing his personal assist count to 18 while also helping the Lakers take a one-point lead 79-78.

He handed out 18 assists in the third quarter, which can be ranked in history, Tang Shuai slapped the doubter in the face with excessive completion, and by the time the fourth quarter began, the signs in the hands of the fans had long been gone.

Before the game, I am afraid that no one expected that the game would be played in front of them, including the players of the Lakers, but when it came to this point, they all gave up one by one and tried their best to play.

The game between the two sides became more and more intense and anxious, and from time to time the players could be seen flipping on their backs.

This anxious situation also gave Tang Shuai enough time to rest, and he was replaced after more than halfway through the game.

At this time, the score on the court was 90-86, and the Cavaliers led by four points.

After Tang Shuai re-appeared, the Cavaliers made defensive adjustments, and Lu did not send Shambaught on the court again, and it was James who came out to release him.

From James's serious expression, it can be seen that this is his own request.

Seeing James directly leading Tang Shuai, a deafening cheer broke out at the scene.

The reaction of the fans was great, but Tang Shuai didn't pay much attention to it at first, although James is also a player with a purple defensive bag, but the height and weight are there, and it is still difficult to keep up with him at speed.

He sank his center of gravity and began to cross and shake directly.

But this time he miscalculated, he predicted that some were right, but James directly pressed a small step back, and did not try to steal, just blocked his breakthrough route, giving people the feeling that you want to shoot and shoot, and want to break through.

Tang Shuai saw the opportunity, took a step back, and followed by Maddie's dry pull-out jumper.

This start was very sudden, even if there was a top defender like Shambaugh standing opposite, he was absolutely sure that the opponent would not be able to keep up with his rhythm.

But this time, after he jumped, James's big hand directly covered it.

James not only bounced quickly, but also judged quite accurately, and successfully interfered with Tang Shuai's shooting.

With a "bang", Tang Shuai's shooting rate was inaccurate under high-intensity defense, and the rebound was grabbed by Lefu into his arms.

The scene erupted in cheers, and they had rarely seen James defend so seriously.

In the Cavaliers' offensive round, James broke through and hit a difficult shot, and at the age of 32, his athleticism has not decreased at all.

Looking back, Tang Shuai used the block to break through, his speed was fast, and in a blink of an eye, he was under the basket, and after a physical confrontation with Lefu who jumped up and made up the defense, after the referee's whistle sounded, he still created an opportunity for himself to shoot.

But at the moment when he shot, James caught up from behind and flew the fan out of the court.

The scene burst into cheers.

Although Lefou's foul in the air invalidated the block, judging by the reaction of the fans, the ball was still an absolutely good ball in their eyes.

Tang Shuai ran back to the three-point line at this time to receive the ball, and also put away his contempt, James's excellent experience and ball quotient successfully made up for his lack of speed, or it can be said that this is a very important reason why he became the first person in the league.

He didn't choose to smash James hard, and with a block from Gasol, he saw an opportunity to throw his hand to Barnes on the outside, and Barnes was quite competitive this time, opening his hand to hit a valuable three-pointer.

This goal made James directly angry, yelling at Smith who was defending, and by the way, he yelled at the other players.

This roar played a role, in the next few minutes, both sides strengthened their defensive intensity, the shooting rate was not very high, in this high-intensity confrontation, Tang Shuai did not get many assists, from more than 5 minutes left in the game, until a minute before the end of the game, he was stunned that he did not get an assist.

And with this high-intensity defense, James' physical advantage soon came to pass, and after a steal from Barnes, he quickly attacked the front court and helped the team extend the score to four points with a trademark one-handed slam dunk.

Wharton called a timeout.

James kept waving his hands when he left the game, and the cheers of the scene came one after another, and at Cleveland's home court, James enjoyed the "power" of his emperor.

'We need to win this round, it's a game that has to be scored, we can win it!' Surrounded by the cacophony of fans, Wharton raised his voice and shouted at his teammates.

Tang Shuai nodded vigorously, then reached out and wiped the sweat on his forehead, the sweat dripped down his arm, and his whole body could consume a lot.

However, compared with the previous three quarters of the game, his eyes at this time are extremely determined, and at this time in the game, he has no time to think about anything else, even if James defends him after the timeout, he must stand up.

"Toot ~"

The long whistle on the sidelines soon sounded.

Tang Shuai dribbled the ball to the frontcourt.

Sure enough, the person standing in front of him was still James.

After Tang Shuai stretched out his hand to signal his teammates to pull away, he sank his center of gravity, and after continuous cross-step shaking, he suddenly changed direction to the right, and then slammed into the basket.

James couldn't keep up with his footsteps, but he kept retreating, stretching out his long arms to prevent Tang Shuai from giving Tang Shuai a chance to shoot easily.

Tang Shuai didn't get a good chance until the three-second zone, he followed a sudden emergency stop, and then followed by a turnaround and backward shot.

This movement is quite consistent, and he has used it many times in his usual training.

But just as he was about to make a move, he suddenly saw a figure full of cheeks in front of him swoop towards him!

James! Even better than he expected!

Tang Shuai deliberately raised the arc of the shot to avoid the risk of being blocked, but after the elevation, his shooting rate also decreased.

"Bang!"

His shot popped out again!

The rebound was grabbed by James on the back.

A hint of frustration flashed in Tang Shuai's eyes, but the next second he turned around and shouted to his teammates to retreat, there was still time for the game, but if this goal was scored by the Cavaliers again, the game would really be closed.

After James grabbed the rebound, he accelerated and rushed forward from the left side.

Tang Shuai followed after landing, and the offensive and defensive roles of the two of them changed in an instant.

James didn't care too much about Tang Shuai, but looked up, his habit allowed him to spot his teammates at the first time.

Smith has galloped to the frontcourt.

James threw the ball out of his hands.

But at the moment when he started, Tang Shuai's hand appeared in front of him coldly.

Tang Shuai didn't try to steal, because he knew that with his green skill pack, he would probably not be able to steal, and might even pay for a foul, but his presidential defensive bag was purple, which was obviously a more threatening option.

Like Tang Shuai before, James paid the price for his contempt, he didn't expect Tang Shuai to come to this trick at all, the ball was passed out, but the angle was obviously off.

"Smack!"

At that moment, Batum, who was not far away, slammed out of the diagonal side and cut off James' pass.

In an uproar from the fans at the scene, Batum broke the ball and threw it forward.

After Tang Shuai interfered, taking advantage of James's stunned effort, he had already run forward again, and received the basketball in the next second.

Because of James' steal, the outside players on both sides have rushed to the Lakers' half, and there are only four players left in the backcourt, the Lakers' Noel and Gasol, and the Cavaliers' Thompson and Love.

As soon as Tang Shuai turned around, it immediately became a 3-2 situation.

He didn't stop at any point and broke through the middle directly.

Thompson and Love immediately made their way to the middle bag.

At this moment, Tang Shuai suddenly pulled the ball back with his left hand, and then pushed it violently, and the basketball flew to the right.

Noll on the right side is ready to receive the ball, Lefu also braked the car and turned back to defend Noll, even Thompson turned to the right, ready to help defend Noll, after all, under the basket, the success rate of cowardice is still very high.

But at this moment, something happened that everyone didn't expect.

Tang Shuai pulled his right hand behind him, directly blocked the ball passed to the right, and then pushed it to the left.

This time, the ball directly came to a 180-degree turn, and the basketball that was originally to the right flew directly to the left.

The fans on the sidelines were stunned, and even Miller and Harlan looked at the scene in front of them with shocked expressions.

It's really imaginative!

The basketball flew straight into Gasol's hand, and Gasol took the ball and took a big stride, and jumped up with a roar.

"Bang!"

Everything happened so fast that Love and Thompson didn't have time to come back to make up for it, so they just watched Gasol press the ball into the basket and then hang it down.

There was silence.

After the dunk, Gasol looked extremely excited, opened his mouth, and roared at the audience.

Although he is entering the late stage of his career, this goal is definitely the best he has scored this season.

"It's so imaginative, and in my memory, only one of the most iconic goals of my white chocolate career can compare to it." Harlan said with a look of shock.

Harlan's goal is the most brilliant goal of White Chocolate's career, very similar to Tang Shuai's goal, but what is even more perverted is that he passed the ball with his right elbow, which has also become an indispensable goal in his passing highlights.

Now Tang Shuai has copied him, although he is limited by his passing ability, he is not as exaggerated as he is, but this is enough to shock everyone.

"If I'm not mistaken, this is Tang Shuai's 20th assist?" At this moment, Miller suddenly said coldly. (To be continued.) )
