Chapter 650: One Step to Heaven (2)

"It's so, it's so exciting!"

At the North Shore Garden Arena, the third game of the 2009 NBA Playoffs Eastern Conference Finals has come to a white-hot moment.

The bayonets on both sides were red, all tactical strategies were targeted, all pre-match arrangements were broken, and all advantages and disadvantages, victories and defeats were worn out and drawn.

It's time to spell the real thing.

“DEFENSE! DEFENSE! DEFENSE! DEFENSE! ”

The shouts of the fans were deafening, and the fourth quarter came to the final minute, and the scores of the two sides were still very close.

"The second half of the fourth quarter was a very exciting game, and on the Philadelphia side, Chen's offense was obviously suppressed. But the scramble for rebounding is the most dominant rebounding performance I've seen in my career so far, including commenting on the game! ”

Reggie Miller, who was on the side of the commentary stage, was a Hall of Fame-level player who had seen many big scenes, and at this time he was also convinced by Chen Mu's rebounding performance in the past four minutes.

"Grabbing rebounds is also explosive."

Commentator Albert nodded: "We often say that there is a difference in the explosiveness of an offensive superstar in terms of scoring ability. Some players, such as Kobe, have amazing scoring explosiveness. And some players are also scorers, such as Kevin Martin, who lacks scoring explosiveness. There are also amazing high-scoring performances in his career, but most of the time, he contributes to the average points per game of the season like clocking in and out of work. ”

"As for the explosiveness in rebounding, I think Chen is about to step into the realm of 'who else can I be'."

"It's short!"

On the court, the Philadelphia 76ers attacked, Lowry and Milicic made a one-two, Milicic turned a small hook after receiving the ball. The moment he made the shot, Perkins stepped forward to rush and collide. caused Milicic's center of gravity to be unstable, and his shot was a little less powerful.

With a "dang", the basketball smashed on the front frame and bounced, Milicic is also a former genius, and he is tall and knows very well how to use his height advantage as much as possible at this time. His hands were always held high in the air and did not fall. Just wait for the basketball to bounce back and fall into your own hands.

Perkins, however, expected this.

"Humph......!"

Perkins leaned back with his broad, strong back, knocking Milicic to a stagger, and he raised his hands as he looked about to touch the basketball.

A hand, appearing in the air.

"Smack" a little, Perkins in the center of his desperate gaze. The basketball deviated from its original trajectory and fell to the side.

This guy ...... Is it really a messenger of God......?!!

The basketball has not yet landed, how can he know where the basketball will fall at this point in time?!!

"Rebounds on fire!"

In front of Chen Mu's eyes, the exclusive badge came into play, and after grabbing the twentieth rebound of the game, Chen Mu activated the badge, and as soon as Milicic shot, the flame path that only Chen Mu could see appeared in the air.

Sideways one card. Guiding Garnett to the other side, Chen Mu suddenly turned around and walked inside. Hit the bottom of the basketball with one hand in the air and point the ball in your direction.

The rebounding ball is mine.

I said that as long as the ball doesn't go in, the rebound is mine......!!!

"Smack!"

took off the rebound fiercely, Chen Mu landed without adjustment, and immediately held the ball with one hand. Send the ball to the side of the basket.

Enter!

“YES!”

Chen Mu swung his fist hard, high-fived Milicic in the process of returning to defense, and raised his eyes to look at the scoreboard.

87-89, the Philadelphia 76ers still trailed by two points.

Where did this damn 2-point deficit come from?

Ray Allen.

In Chen Mu, he turned on the rebounding idiot mode. When frantically plundering rebounds in the front and back courts, the Celtics' inherent tactics were completely disrupted.

Garnett, who was supposed to try to scramble for frontcourt rebounds in every offense, became quite awkward. Go grab it, Chen Mu is under the basket, and he can't grab any rebounds. If you don't grab it, the defensive running position that was originally arranged before the game will be messy, and it will make your teammates confused.

Chen Mu became the catfish that disturbed the pool.

The Celtics' offense and defense were in unprecedented chaos, and the Philadelphia 76ers took advantage of Chen Mu's invincible rebounds to launch a counterattack, once stretching the difference to 5 points.

During this period of time, Garnett's basket missed, Pierce's trademark step-back jumper missed, Perkins' close-range layup was interfered with by Chen Mu, and Rondo's turnaround layup after breaking through was also fanned by Iguodala with a big hat.

Just after the ball was fanned, the basketball was too far away from Chen Mu's position, and it was impossible for Rao Chen Mu to make an instant move to grab the rebound.

The devil sent the ball, and it came to Ray Allen.

Carney's defense was in front of him, but Ray Allen acted as if he didn't see it at all, and after receiving the ball, he unreasonably pulled out a three-point shot, as he had done countless times in his career.

Three-point hit.

With the knife in his hand, Ray Allen returned to the defense with a cold killer breath, saw a flaw in Carney's breakthrough with the ball, and cut off the ball to launch a counterattack.

When Philadelphia returned to defense, all of Ray Allen's passing routes were blocked. Carney also struggled to catch up, seeing Ray Allen shoot a three-pointer with an unbelievable pull, and a reflexive jump block.

The referee's whistle blows, the thug fouls, and the basketball shots.

Continue to middle in the middle!

The cold-blooded killer Ray Allen showed his killer instinct at the last moment, a three-point shot after a chaotic battle, a three-plus-one counterattack after a steal, and seven points in just a few tens of seconds.

The original five-point gap was instantly smoothed out and overtaken, and the two-point gap appeared.

After Chen Mu's rebounding, Philadelphia scored another few points. But the Celtics, on their side, also relied on Ray Allen's wonderful play to stabilize the situation. The score rose alternately, and the two-point gap was never erased.

In the last thirty seconds, the Celtics attacked.

"Stick to !!"

"Yes!!"

Chen Mu shouted, and the whole team held back their strength to defend the Celtics' key attack.

Ray Allen feels good in the hand.

Rondo controlled the ball at the top of the arc, killing time.

This time. We have a two-point advantage in our hands, just hold the situation and then score another goal at the right time.

At least a gap of more than four points, victory is in our pocket......!

“GO-CELTICS! GO-CELTICS! GO-CELTICS! ”

North Shore Gardens recreated the Devil's home style, with the fanatical fans shouting and screaming, each of which felt like a slam on the hearts of the away players. Bring a terrifying shock.

Pressure.

Chen Mu could clearly feel the pressure, but his eyes were still as clear as a mirror.

Hold.

Grab the rebound.

And then score!

Chen Mu gritted his teeth and stuck to Garnett's back, saying nothing that would give Garnett a chance to attack the basket.

On the other side, Pierce was also killed by Iguodala. Iguodala, who has been considered by many to be the No. 1 outside defense master in the East, is no joke. Even Pierce couldn't shake off easily and couldn't find a chance to catch the ball.

In front of Rondo, Lowry also followed suit, sitting extremely low. His weight pressed down, his eyes fixed on the ball in Rondo's hand.

There is no chance ......!

Ray Allen, who has a strong hand, is naturally the focus of the Philadelphia 76ers at this time, and Carney relies on his feet and mobility to chase Ray Allen all over the court. The marksman was unable to find an opportunity, and even if he occasionally relied on off-ball cover to run a little space, Philadelphia would defend with a SHOW &RECOVER strategy and not give Ray Allen the slightest chance to catch the ball.

Do you want to attack it yourself?

Rondo hesitated. Although the Lowry defense in front of him was in place, he obviously deliberately gave up space on one side. A posture of "please enter the urn".

It's a trap.

It's a very obvious trap.

What kind of vision does Rondo have? At a glance, I saw the basket, Chen Mu and Garnett were in the same position, and at the same time, they also moved to the middle from time to time. As long as he tries to break through, the moment he shoots under the basket, Chen Mu will step forward to block.

And Rondo also believes that if he goes to the basket and tries to pass the ball to Garnett. Lowry will appear in the passing lane and complete the steal.

Dead Battle.

This is the Philadelphia 76ers, leaving themselves with a dead battle!

“BUT-I-GOTTA-TRY。”

“…… Well? ”

Lowry seemed to hear Rondo say something, but before he could hear it, Rondo in front of him suddenly accelerated with a gust of wind. Rushed to the inside line.

Hooked!

Luo Rui was secretly happy in his heart, and while turning back to catch up, he glanced at Chen Mu.

OK。

Chen Mu nodded and moved forward laterally.

Rondo came to the basket and held the ball up a little bit, Chen Mu did not jump, and the perfect sealing action blocked the basket.

Turning, Rondo turned like a spinning top, and seemed to be about to send Garnett a behind-the-back pass, but Lowry stepped forward to block.

Rajon Rondo, who delivered the best pass of the playoffs so far this season.

"Whoosh......!"

The basketball burst out of Rondo's fingertips, brushed Lowry's fingers and slammed them to the ground, along the baseline and straight into the corner.

Ray Allen was making a reverse run in the bottom corner, lifting to the upper line, and when Carney followed the defense, Yu Guang felt two figures rushing towards the upper line.

What the......?!

Carney was startled, as if he realized something, but it was too late to make adjustments.

"Bang"

The fiery three-point king Ray Allen became the bait, and when he went up, he took advantage of the situation to make a cover, and Pierce stumbled through the small gap outside the bottom corner three-point line, and the basketball flew in as he was in place.

Take, jump, and throw your signature tiptoe.

"Huh"

Three-point hit.

“YEAAAAAAAAAAAAH!!!”

Pierce chewed gum and turned his head to the sky to meet the overwhelming cheers of the audience, and the North Shore Garden erupted in terrifying shouts.

The heroes of the Green Shirts, once again saving the world.

"It's not over yet!"

All the generals in Philadelphia were a little depressed, but Chen Mu did not give up hope, there were still about 7 seconds left, and the five-point gap was not hell!

After a timeout, Philadelphia played a delicate game, and Iguodala hit a crucial three-pointer to keep two points to go.

After that, Philadelphia took a foul tactic in time, and Rondo made one of two free throws and rebounded, which was miraculously grabbed by Chen Mu.

No more pauses!

The whole court was suffocated, Chen Mu grabbed the rebound and stabilized his footing, and there were only three seconds left in the clock, and the Celtics' deadly bag attacked.

The pass was sent, Lowry received the ball outside the three-point line, and in the last second, he shot a three-point ......! (To be continued.) )
