Basketball Legends: Strikers Are King

Granger hit a jumper to help the Pacers regain the lead.

The Jazz tried to counterattack several times, but were repelled by the Pacers' solid defense. However, the Jazz's defense was not a vegetarian, and the Pacers' offense failed.

Myers assisted Favors to score a jumper, which broke the one-minute scoring drought between the two teams.

Granger's jumper hit the ground and flew out of the baseline.

The Jazz finally requested substitutions and replaced Hayward, Harris and others.

"Is it finally here?"

Brian Shaw looked at the Jazz team, which had a full starting lineup, and was a little worried.

The Pacers have already replaced the main force three minutes early. They may finish warming up in advance and beat the Jazz who just came on stage;

It is also possible that his physical strength is declining and he cannot compete with the Jazz's new force.

In these last 5 minutes, anything can happen. This is the charm of competitive sports.

"Coach, do you want to replace Paul?"

No matter how calm Brian Shaw was, he now advised Vogel to choose the safest way.

No matter which of the above two situations occurs, Brian Shaw believes that Qi Tian will be the focus of the Jazz's main attack.

Although George committed 5 offenses, they were all in the last 5 minutes. Even if George is a pig, he should be able to survive.

Then George's advantage of being better defensively than Qi Tian will help the Pacers.

Hearing that Brian Shaw, who had been focusing on his own little land since joining the coaching staff, panicked, Vogel snickered in his heart, but still rejected his proposal.

"I think Qi played well and there is no need to change."

It seems that this is the main reason why Brian Shaw can only serve as an assistant coach and failed to run for the head coach.

Vogel had some inexplicable disdain for Brian Shaw.

If he cannot adhere to his own coaching ideas, then he will never be able to form his own coaching style.

This is Vogel's own law.

After seeing George being targeted by opponents and getting into foul trouble, Vogel set an early goal of not letting George play for too long.

That's right, Vogel replaced George at the beginning of the fourth quarter not to give his players a chance to indulge, but to wait until the end before replacing George.

Brian Shaw could only see that George's defense was better than Qi Tian's, but Vogel saw that Qi Tian had something that George should learn the most, which is the normalcy necessary for the game, which is what the fans call it.

Big heart.

The reason why George is so good at times is that on the one hand, his shooting talent is indeed a bit lacking, and on the other hand, he is easily affected by his own mentality. His mentality is not stable enough, and his shots are of course inaccurate.

"I hope Paul can understand that treating himself as a sharp-edged player is not a plus in the coach's eyes."

Vogel looked at George sitting on the bench, then turned to look at the court.

But at this time, Qitian was not as firm as Vogel thought.

"These teammates are unreliable. Do you have to rely on me?"

"But what if I miss the shot and don't perform well and am replaced by the coach?"

"Just vote, are you going to be boiled by your opponent?"

"But there is Stephenson behind me. If I wait until Stephenson rises, I will have no chance at all!"

"If you're afraid of this or that, are you still a man?"

"If you're afraid of a chicken, just do it!"

At a certain moment, Qi Tian finally figured it out and suddenly looked up at Harris in front of him.

"What does this man want to do with such scary eyes?"

Harris was startled, then laughed at himself.

"He is a rookie, so what if he is scary? Does he still want to eat me?"

Myers hit a pull-up jumper and the Jazz once again took the lead.

"91-90."

Hibbert got stuck inside and received Collison's pass, but Jefferson behind him firmly blocked Hibbert's center of gravity and gave his opponent no chance.

It is true that Jefferson is not good at defense, but that is compared to the top players in the league. Hibbert is not the top low-post attacker in the league, so it is really difficult.

"Give me!"

Just when Hibbert was in a dilemma and wanted to take a hasty shot, he heard the voices of his teammates.

"It's seven!"

Hibbert had this idea inexplicably. He thought about the possible positions of his teammates, and directly facing the basket, he passed the ball to Qi Tian who was breaking through from the right rear!

"pretty!"

Seeing Hibbert's wonderful pass, the fans at the scene immediately cheered, and Qi Tian lived up to expectations, catching the ball and forcing a layup.

"91-92."

Millsap faced the aging West and forced a single.

"Whoosh!"

Basketball hollow hit.

He had a strong presence on both offense and defense, preventing West's offense, and then caused Hibbert to foul and go to the free throw line.

"Uh-huh."

"Uh-huh."

Millsap made both free throws.

"95-92."

In the last 4 minutes of the game, the Jazz's lead reached 3 points.

Granger caught the ball and played singles, and Hayward moved sideways continuously without giving his opponent any space.

"Tsk."

Granger, who was so troubled, could only pretend to break through and pass the ball to Qi Tian in the bottom corner.

Qi Tian caught the ball and feinted a shot, and also broke through to the basket, but he slipped around from the basket and came out again.

The moment Lagabell relaxed, he passed the ball to Hibbert in the paint. Hibbert caught the ball and jumped up, dunking the ball directly.

"Dudu!"

The referee blew the whistle to indicate a foul on Jefferson under the basket.

"Additional penalty!"

2+1!

Hibbert made an extra free throw to help the team even the point difference.

"handsome!"

There was a burst of joy on the Pacers bench, and Hibbert was in a good mood.

Jefferson's idea of ​​a duel was in vain in the face of the 10-centimeter height difference. Hibbert turned around and got the rebound.

Collison dribbled through and passed the ball to Qi Tian on the right.

Lagabel was at a disadvantage due to his height and weight, so he quickly took precautions and prepared to defend Qi Tian.

"He is guarding against my breakthrough."

Through his opponent's position, Qi Tian immediately understood his opponent's thoughts.

"Let me show you what three points is!"

Qi Tian worked hard, received the ball directly outside the three-point line, jumped up forcefully, and deflected the opponent's three-pointer!

"Whoosh!"

Basketball hollow hit.

"Roar!"

Seeing the basketball flash through the net, Qi Tian slapped his chest heavily and roared angrily amidst the cheers of the audience.

He believed that as long as he touched his yellow hair at this moment, he would be the same as a Saiyan awakening.

The invigorated Pacers' defensive intensity increased to another level. Hibbert blocked Jefferson's layup and fought for offensive rebounds everywhere.

Collison received the basketball from his teammate and succeeded in the second attack.

"95-100."

The Pacers went on a 10-0 run and instantly opened the point difference to 5 points.

Although the Jazz scored 2 points in the final minute of the game, Granger's jump shot once again maintained the score.

In the last ten seconds, the Jazz could only use foul tactics. Qi Tian made two free throws, but the Jazz missed a three-pointer and had to suffer defeat in the end.
