Basketball Legends: Strikers Are King

Chapter 216 That must be a three-pointer

There are only five and a half minutes left in the fourth quarter. If you want to take the opportunity to tie the score or even take the lead, there seems to be only one way...

"Three-point shot!"

Granger gestured to his teammates to open up space, and then called West for a pick-and-roll.

Anthony didn't like the feeling of being passed by his opponent, so he prioritized going around the screen and returned to the mid-range, waiting for Granger to break through.

"Now!"

Granger ignored Stoudemire, who was coming over to defend him, and directly picked up the basketball and threw it out.

"Come in, come in!"

The Pacers fans on the sidelines and in front of the screen unconsciously cheered for Granger. They watched with burning eyes as the basketball jumped out of Granger's hand, flew to the highest point and then flew towards its goal...

"clang!"

The basketball accurately... hit the edge of the basket and flew out.

"Hiss~~!"

Countless emotions burst out from the fans' chests, but then disappeared in the cold air sucked in.

Jeremy Lin turned around and grabbed the rebound to organize the offense.

"Actually, it's okay to wait a little longer for this ball!"

Fans who thought others were undercover before didn't understand.

The Pacers still have plenty of offensive time, a full 11 seconds. Isn't it good to play an offense with a high success rate and have to go for a three-pointer?

"What do you know!"

The fans who had been wronged were immediately vindicated and vindicated.

"We are already behind by double digits. If we don't work hard on the outside, why don't we wait until the end to take action?"

He looked at Granger on the field and did not say the second half of the sentence.

Granger was defeated in front of Anthony. Do you still expect Granger to beat Anthony with his own pull-up jumper?

JR Smith's catch-and-shoot jump shot was interfered by Qi Tian, ​​but Chandler under the basket took the rebound from Hibbert's head.

"Give me!"

Chandler heard Anthony's voice and passed the ball decisively. Anthony caught the ball and forced a layup, causing Hibbert to foul.

"clang!"

"Whoosh!"

Two free throws were made, but the Knicks still opened the point difference to 12 points.

"92-80."

"Carmelo!"

"Mero!"

Fans who came to the Pacers' home court to support the Knicks immediately shouted Melo's name and cheered him on.

After Jeremy Lin stole Hibbert and assisted J.R. Smith to score on the fast break, they became even more crazy and started shouting for Jeremy Lin.

“Lin’s crazy!”

"Jeremy!"

Anthony frowned when he heard the fans' change.

When he came to the Knicks, he naturally wanted to be the most dazzling star in New York, but he didn't expect that an injury caused a substitute to suddenly rise and steal his limelight.

"You're the only one who can assist?"

He was unhappy and wanted to prove himself.

West caused a foul on Anthony and made one of two free throws. Anthony didn't care and directly broke through and scored the ball to Chandler under the basket, assisting his teammate for a layup.

"96-81."

But to Anthony's surprise, the fans' reaction to his wonderful pass was obviously not as big as Jeremy Lin's just now.

"Nitrogen Tomb!"

Anthony, who didn't know that the fans had different expectations for him and Jeremy Lin, was mentally unbalanced.

"Be decisive in attacking! Shoot when you have the chance!"

In the last four minutes, the team's disadvantage reached 15 points, which made Vogel very anxious. He shouted to his players in an attempt to perform CPR on the team.

After hearing the coach's words, Collison immediately followed suit. He called for a pick-and-roll, quickly moved sideways, and took advantage of the opportunity to make a jump shot.

"clang!"

Pacers fans had already sensed the imminent defeat, and many people lamented.

"I'm afraid it will be difficult today!"

"The ball is over!"

The basketball jumped out of the frame. Hibbert was about to jump up to get the ball, but was firmly stuck by Chandler. He could only watch the basketball gradually fall not far in front of him.

But at this moment, a figure ran over from the baseline and forcibly picked off the rebound over Shumpert's head. It was Qitian!

He raised his head and looked at Hibbert, then rushed toward the basket, attracting the defense, and then hit the ground to the open Hibbert.

Hibbert forced a layup, causing Shumpert to foul and go to the free throw line.

"Apply for substitution!"

Realizing that Chandler was at a disadvantage inside, Woodson quickly requested a substitution, replaced Stoudemire, and all the main players came on stage.

Except for Fields, who plays poor defense.

Hibbert made two free throws to help the Pacers chase the point, but Anthony, who was very expressive, took the pass and turned over and hit a jumper, stably maintaining the point difference.

"You still have to shoot three-pointers!"

Granger holds the ball in a high position, facing Anthony's defense, and wants to continue shooting from the outside.

But Anthony had already tried his best to express himself. When he saw his opponent moving, he quickly bypassed West's cover and returned to Granger.

"If you want to take action, you should think about how to take the blame if you lose!"

Anthony expressed his disdain for his opponent with the expression on his face.

"right!"

While Granger was struggling, he heard the voice of his teammates on the right and decisively passed the basketball.

"What?"

As soon as JR Smith was distracted, Qi Tian seized the opportunity to move. He quickly chased after him, trying to make up for the mistake.

But Qi Tian didn't give him a chance. Now that time was running out and the team was at a disadvantage, Qi Tian caught the ball and jumped up, throwing the basketball in his hand from the highest point.

"Whoosh!"

The sound of the basketball passing through the net was so sweet that the Pacers fans at the scene were immediately ignited.

"allow!"

"98-86."

"Nice pen!"

Stephenson, who was sitting on the bench, was about to cheer when he suddenly remembered that the team was still far behind, so he was choked by fate and quickly sat down.

As time entered the last three minutes, Jeremy Lin felt calmer.

Next, they just need to play steadily, even if they run out of 24 seconds of attack time, they can win the game steadily.

Oh, JR ran out and asked for the ball?

Jeremy Lin passed the basketball nonchalantly, and then moved to prepare to help his teammates attract the defensive attention.

But it is a pity that JR Smith does not have such an overall view of the situation.

When the ball is in my hand, is it disrespectful for me not to shoot it?

What's more, if someone just threw a ball in front of me, it's not my character if I don't return it!

J.R. Smith took two steps outside the three-point line with peace of mind and threw the basketball in his hand before the shot time was over halfway.

"clang!"

This move was beyond Qi Tian's expectation, but the sound of iron striking that followed made everyone on the walkers happy.

"He really got on top!"

"Thank you Lao Tie for the opportunity!"

Hibbert picked up the rebound with confidence and turned around and handed it to Granger.

"Quick attack!"

Granger quickly turned around and rushed towards the Knicks' half.

"If we still play fast break at this time, is it too late to score two points?"

Although the Knicks players had such doubts, they still pursued hard and prepared to defend.

"It must still be a three-pointer!"

Granger suddenly stopped, and confidently shot another jump shot from outside the three-point line!
