Basketball Legends: Strikers Are King

Chapter 195: I can't stand it, I have to stand it! Part 1

George caught the ball and broke through, faced Joel Anthony's defense, made a fake shot and passed the ball to Hibbert under the basket, assisting his teammate to hit a jumper.

"52-50."

"powerful!"

The Pacers fans at the scene cheered.

The game has entered a fierce stage early, and every goal must be competed for.

This made the fans at the scene feel a little suffocated. You know, there are still 6 minutes left in the third quarter. The two teams are full of offense and defense at this time. What will happen in the fourth quarter?

George raised his hand to wipe his sweat and turned back to defend himself.

His shooting percentage in this quarter was not high, and he only made 1 of 3 shots. This was completely different from his 10 points on 4 of 6 shots in the first half.

It's not because he seamlessly switched to super ghost mode, but because the opponent gained momentum in the third quarter and he put too much energy into the defensive end.

Even so...

Wade held the ball in a high position, looked at the tired George in front of him, smiled slightly, suddenly picked up his speed and rushed toward the basket.

George quickly moved sideways to catch up, but Wade took the first step for a layup, and his second step strangely crossed the retreating George, moving from the left to the right, and his speed also slowed down. When George was due to inertia,

After exiting, Wade threw the basketball in his hand.

"Mistake Step!"

There was excitement on the Heat bench, waving towels wildly in celebration of their teammates' scores.

"Dwayne~~Wade!"

The home fans also celebrated loudly for their team spirit under the leadership of the on-site DJ.

"52-52."

"Nitrogen Tomb!"

George was a little annoyed. He knew that his opponent's stunt was a three-step layup, but he was still fooled.

There is nothing that can be done about it. Even though Wade has part of his meniscus removed, his first step can still compete with the fastest in the league and even history. He is half a body behind his opponent at the start. Even if George pursues the defense in time, it will be of no avail.

"It's not Paul's fault..."

Brian Shaw looked at George on the sidelines and sighed,

"But his mentality is still a little unstable."

"No, I can definitely guard against him!"

George gritted his teeth and stared intently at Wade in front of him.

Finally, after a series of exchanges between the two sides, George waited for an opportunity. Wade caught the ball again and attacked, with George following him closely.

"Yo ho."

Wade was a little surprised. His consecutive breakthroughs were correctly predicted by his opponent, but he couldn't get rid of it. He could only finish with a step-back jumper.

"clang!"

The basketball jumped out of the hoop.

"yes!!"

Hansbrough got the rebound, and George pumped his fist hard to encourage his performance.

But Brian Shaw off the court saw clearly that George was trying his best to defend Wade. Although it was effective, George's physical exertion was so great that even his movement on the offensive end was much slower.

"You are still young."

Wade looked at the panting George and smiled secretly in his heart.

The opponent's desire to defend himself was clearly visible on his face. He just used a little trick and used speed changes to consume the opponent's physical strength, and then he accomplished his goal.

"You have to follow closely next."

Hearing Wade's provocation, George smiled disdainfully and countered:

"If you can't make a shot, don't say you're old."

His teammates kept hitting the ball one after another, but Granger finally decided to go in on his own and hit a pull-up jumper to help the Pacers take the lead.

"Run!"

James asked for the ball from a high position and then signaled his teammates to move.

He discovered that Granger's stance was radical, so he bulldozed his way through, pushed away his opponent, and forced his way to the basket!

Hibbert quickly let go of Joel Anthony, who was entangled with him, and came over to defend. When James jumped up, he also jumped up and tried to block the shot.

"You don't think I can't pull the lever, do you?"

When James saw Hibbert take off, he took back the basketball, pulled the lever, dodged Hibbert, and threw the basketball.

"Now!"

Granger followed closely and saw the opportunity. The moment James took action, he hit him from behind!

"Good hat!"

Frustrating the opponent's offense, the Pacers substitutes on the sidelines were excited.

"clang!"

The basketball hit the backboard hard and bounced out, but was picked up by Joel Anthony.

"outside!"

Chalmers saw the opportunity, ran to the corner, reached for the ball, and after receiving the pass from his teammate, he directly faced Collison and made a three-point jumper.

"Whoosh!"

Basketball hollow hit.

"54-55."

The opponent's layup was blocked, but the opponent scored 3 points. This made the Pacers players' mentality somewhat broken.

Granger's jump shot hit the ground, and the Heat immediately counterattacked after taking the ball. James picked up speed, rushed towards the Pacers' half court, and forced a layup. Although he missed, he still caused a foul on Paul George.

"Dudu!"

The referee blew the whistle and sent James to the free throw line.

"George got 4 fouls!"

Brian Shaw quickly reminded head coach Vogel.

Vogel saw the timer showing that there were three and a half minutes left in the third quarter, and then looked at George who was sweating on his face.

After hesitating for a while, he applied for a substitution and replaced George. Collison was also replaced by Price.

Qi Tian high-fived his teammates one by one, walked outside the three-point line, and waited for the result of the free throw.

Heat coach Spoelstra also replaced Wade and Bosh at the same time. The two teams replaced Hibbert and Chalmers and other main players in the next round, leaving only Granger and James on the court.

"Coming, coming!"

Seeing that both teams had one main player and four substitutes, the Pacers fans on the sidelines became nervous.

Whether the team can withstand the pressure in the next three minutes and the beginning of the fourth quarter and create opportunities for the main force will determine the outcome of today's game.

As expected, James made one of two free throws, changing the score to 54-56.

"Give me!"

This moment was not ordinary. Granger took the initiative to pass the basketball and organize the offense from a high position.

Price and Qi Tian lined up at the bottom corners to create space for the boss.

Taking advantage of Hibbert's presence, Granger broke through and passed the ball to the basket.

But Hibbert's handwork did not exceed the expectations of Heat fans. He actually hit the mid-range jumper, giving the Heat a chance.

Battier got the rebound and passed it to James.

"Quick attack!"

The Pacers quickly returned to defense, but James suddenly slowed down and waited for his teammates to be in place before starting to attack.

It was still an unsolvable bulldozer breakthrough. He forced his way past Granger and rushed towards the basket.

"Would you like to go over and make up for the defense?"

Qi Tian instinctively chose to defend, and just when he was about to get in front of James, James suddenly flicked the basketball in his hand...

"Oops!"

Qi Tian instinctively retreated in front of Chalmers again, but found that his opponent did not receive the pass.

"this……"

Qi Tian turned around blankly and could only see Hansbrough knocking the basketball out of James' hand and being called for a foul by the referee.

James nodded proudly and walked to the free throw line amid the cheers of the fans in the audience.

Granger, Qi Tian and the fouled Hansbrough were just the backdrop for his attack.
