Basketball Legends: Strikers Are King

"I am Zefa!"

The Pacers fans looked at Qi Tian's desperate shot and were about to yell out, but they heard the sound of the basketball passing through the net and saw the basketball falling from the center.

"I bought it!"

In the last two and a half minutes, the Pacers stubbornly narrowed the point difference to 1 point!

The Pacers were full of momentum, and Hibbert also made a contribution. He directly stole Lopez's basketball inside and passed it to his teammates.

"Quick attack!"

Hill immediately turned around and rushed towards the Hornets half court with the ball.

"Defend!"

Hornets fans shouted anxiously. Fortunately, Rivers, Vasquez and Aminu were very fast and quickly returned to defense without giving their opponents an open chance.

Hill squeezed Rivers away and forced a layup!

"Dang-dang-dang."

Under the expectant eyes of the Pacers fans at the scene, the basketball jumped several times and finally fell out.

"I ZeF..."

The Pacers fans were about to exit, but they saw West jumping up after following up, got the basketball and directly tipped the ball in!

"nice shot!"

Bankers Life Arena immediately burst into cheers.

"93-94."

"good!"

Vogel and other members of the coaching staff can clearly see that the team's condition has rapidly improved, and their momentum has faintly surpassed that of their opponents. This is a good opportunity to take advantage of the opportunity to widen the point difference in one fell swoop!

"Do you want to call a timeout?"

Hornets coach Monty looked at the one and a half minutes left in the game and hesitated, but still did not call a timeout.

This decision almost killed them.

Anderson's jump shot was interfered by George and failed to hit.

"Run!"

Hill brought the ball to the frontcourt and waved to his teammates.

Of course, his attention was mainly on Qi Tian and West inside. As expected, Qi Tian ran out to catch the ball, but Vasquez followed up in time and did not give him an open opportunity.

The man in front of me has already hit 7 three-pointers and scored 26 points in a single game. If he gives his opponent open opportunities again, why is he still playing in the NBA?

"Follow closely!"

Qi Tian straightened his back and was about to jump up to shoot. Vasquez was fooled and quickly jumped up to block the shot.

"Wrong guess!"

Qi Tian once again passed the ball to George in the bottom corner, and George received the ball and continued to shoot.

"Whoosh!"

His three-pointer also hit again!

"93-97."

In the fourth quarter alone, George and Qi Tian have already made 4 of 4 three-pointers!

"pause!"

Monty quickly called a timeout and prepared to deploy tactics.

With 1 minute and 17 seconds left in the game, the Hornets were 4 points behind, which required them to score two consecutive offenses and prevent their opponent's shots.

"Defend the opponent's inside shot!"

Vogel didn't need to think about it and said to Hibbert and West.

Rivers Jr., Vasquez and Aminu on the outside are not a great offensive threat. Now the Hornets can only rely on the mid-range shots of Lopez and Anderson on the inside.

West is naturally trustworthy.

"Roy...just defend as usual."

Vogel hesitated for a moment, but still chose to believe Hibbert. Of course, Hansbrough and Mahinmi were too outrageous and would definitely not be able to match the opponent's inside line.

Hibbert, who the team signed with a maximum salary contract, scored just over 10 points today and had an "astonishing" 11 rebounds. You know, Lopez on the opposite side has already scored 18 points and 12 rebounds. Even if

Aminu can grab 10 rebounds.

"Everyone else can just defend alone. The opponent doesn't have any stable scoring methods!"

Sure enough, it didn't surprise Vogel. The Hornets' Vasquez's jump shot was interfered by Qi Tian. Anderson grabbed the rebound, but his second shot was also blocked by George.

What's even more unexpected is that Robin Lopez got a crucial offensive rebound over Hibbert's head, and the tip-in also caused the opponent to foul!

"Whoosh!"

"Whoosh!"

"95-97."

Hibbert had already fouled 5 times. Fortunately, there was only one minute left in the game and Vogel did not replace him.

"It's better to be more stable."

In the Pacers' attack related to the outcome of the game, Hill still focused on stability and did not pass it to George and Qi Tian, ​​who had great hands, but passed it to West in the low post.

Of course, this is understandable. After all, veterans always have more experience and the risks they need to take are less.

But this time, West's low singles against Aminu were blocked by his opponent!

Anderson caught the ball in the high post to attract the defense and passed it to the open Anderson. Anderson lived up to the fans' expectations and scored a jump shot in the last 22 seconds to tie the score!

"97-97."

The Pacers pushed to the end, and West took another shot, striking the iron;

Hibbert got the offensive rebound and made a tip-in;

Hill grabbed the offensive rebound and made a tip-in;

Qi Tian grabbed offensive rebounds, tipped in and hit the ball!

"Dudududu!"

The referee blew the whistle to signal the end of regular game time. The Pacers, who failed to end the game, would have to decide in overtime with their opponent, the Hornets.

"Huh~~"

The Pacers fans on the sidelines looked at each other, a little at a loss.

When high expectations are placed on the team, the Pacers always seem to be able to disappoint them in some way.

You say the team played well, but in the end this crucial offense played like shit;

You could say it was a poor performance. In the second half, George and Qi Tian scored 19 and 20 points respectively, which can be said to be their best form in recent games.

"Why did it just...go into overtime?"

Hornets fans are also puzzled.

Fortunately, they were the team that came back from behind at the end, so even if it went into overtime, it would still be acceptable.

But overtime is always a time for the team's stars to compete.

Qitian and George seemed to be addicted to passing the ball. At the beginning of the overtime, they passed and assisted each other, and the two hit three-pointers one after another.

Hill also assisted West to score a jumper. George stole the opponent, made a fast break layup, caused a foul, and made two free throws.

"97-107."

The Pacers got off to a fantastic start two minutes before overtime, taking a 10-0 lead.

"The cavalry team, charge!"

"The horse-walking team must win!"

The confidence of the Pacers fans was immediately ignited, and they wildly waved their signs and slogans to cheer for the home team.

Overtime is different from other regular times. A double-digit score difference is definitely not something that can be reversed so easily.

Even if the Hornets scored 3 points in a row, Hibbert's inside attack did not change their thinking.

"Whoosh!"

Vasquez attracted the defense and passed back to the high post Mason, who made a strong shot and hit a three-pointer.

"103-107."

Even if the Hornets chase the point difference to 4 points, it will not happen.

"Dudu!"

The Hornets' turnaround finally happened in the last 2 minutes. Hibbert once again made a jump shot. When he defended Jason Smith, he was called for a foul and sent Jason Smith to the free throw line.

The most terrible thing is that Hibbert has committed 6 fouls and left the field!
