Basketball Legends: Strikers Are King

"Walking team, hold still!"

The Pacers fans on the sidelines cheered for the home team and supported the players on the court.

"Defend!"

There are only 7 minutes left in the game. As long as this crucial 7-point lead is maintained, victory will be guaranteed.

"Pick and roll!"

Parker came to the top of the arc, called Duncan, and continued the pick-and-roll.

However, due to Duncan's physical exertion, he was unable to completely block George Hill, allowing Hill to quickly squeeze through the pick-and-roll and pursue Parker.

"Oops!"

The pick-and-roll breakthrough failed, and Parker immediately knew something was wrong.

"Tim's strength is exhausted!"

Ginobili on the other side also immediately knew that there was a problem with his old friend, and Parker was already tightly entangled by Hill, with no room for breakthrough.

"Give me!"

Ginobili immediately ran back and rushed to the basket, received the pass and directly faced Hibbert for a layup.

"Dang, swish!"

"Dudu!"

The moment the basketball fell into the basket, the referee blew the whistle.

2+1!

"Whoosh!"

Ginobili made a solid hit and added a free throw.

"84-88."

As the score difference was narrowed, suspense arose again.

"seven!"

George held the ball in the high post and quickly found Qi Tian, ​​who forced a three-pointer.

"clang!"

The basketball jumped out of the frame, but fortunately Qitian's defensive end also prevented Ginobili's offense and made up for it.

"I'm afraid Qi's physical strength is a little exhausted."

Brian Shaw looked at Qi Tian who was out of breath, hesitated for a moment, and then suggested to Vogel,

"Coach, do you want Qi to go off first and rest?"

Qi Tian only rested for two minutes in the third quarter, and has only played 6 minutes in the fourth quarter. As expected, Vogel nodded and agreed to the assistant coach's proposal.

Qi Tianshou felt the impact, and he passed the ball directly to George in the high post. George took the ball and shot a three-pointer, widening the point difference again.

"84-91."

"Substitute!"

If the score is stretched again, the team may not have a chance to get closer to the score. Popovich immediately requested a substitution, and Gary Neal and Diaw came on.

Blair definitely can't guard West, so he might as well go to Dior.

The Pacers also replaced Qi Tian and let him rest off the court.

"Shoot a three-pointer!"

Although the Spurs don't like to shoot three-pointers, their shooting aim is not bad at all. After many passes, Green moved to catch the ball and directly diffracted George in front of him.

"Whoosh!"

Basketball hollow hit.

"87-91."

No matter how the team attacks, the opponent can always easily hit the ball in response, and the pressure instead comes to the leading Pacers.

"I'll do it!"

George came to the top of the arc and reached for the ball, took the basketball, and prepared to attack with the ball.

At this time, it’s time to play superstar ball!

He confidently waved to his teammates to move, and he would challenge Green to score.

Isn't this exactly what Danny Boss once did?

But George underestimated Green, who quickly reached out to complete the steal. Under George's watch and amid the wails of Pacers fans, Green scored an easy layup.

"89-91."

"ohhhh!"

The Spurs fans cheered loudly, and the team once again made a strong counterattack and caught up with the score, just like they had done before and done countless times.

"Give me!"

West reaches out for the ball, but at the critical moment, the veteran has to step up.

Diaw tried his best to defend, but the difference in size and experience allowed West to easily turn around and hit the layup.

"Whoosh!"

"89-93."

"Huh~~"

Pacers fans can feel that the string that shrinks to their necks has loosened slightly, and they still have a chance of winning.

"Now it's a competition to see who makes fewer mistakes!"

Vogel knew that the situation on the court had changed. Whoever could maintain their offensive momentum would have a greater chance of winning.

This is what fans often call the "superstar moment."

West once again played the role of the anchor, assisting Hill to score a jumper, but George and Stephenson made consecutive mistakes and received fouls. Green and Gary Neal easily made four free throws to cling to the score.

Finally, Hill and Hibbert missed the basket attack. Gary Neal grabbed the rebound and passed Stephenson for a layup.

"95-95."

In the last 4 minutes, the Spurs even tied the score!

"Steady!"

Hill was a little timid and handed the basketball to West in the high post early, and positioned himself in the corner to help his teammates open up space.

Stephenson and George had the same idea, but they were worried that their movement would allow their opponents to double-team West, so they stood directly on the other side, waiting for a response at any time.

"Now!"

Diaw waited for West to attack, predicted that his opponent was going to turn around and throw, and immediately jumped up in advance, which indeed interfered with his shot!

"clang!"

"rebound!"

The basketball jumped out of the frame. Hibbert and Duncan immediately fought together under the basket. George on the outside also quickly moved inside, trying to rush the board.

"be mine!"

Hibbert grabbed the rebound!

"I am the savior!"

Hibbert didn't wait for his opponent to react and lifted the basketball directly in the air.

A smile immediately took over his face. Hibbert felt that he was possessed by the souls of countless seniors, Chamberlain, Olajuwon, O'Neal, and Yao Ming! He was not fighting alone!

"Clang!"

The sound of iron gave him a hard slap in the face, and Hibbert missed!

"no!"

Hibbert jumped up again and grabbed another offensive rebound.

Duncan's rich experience made an immediate judgment, and he jumped up to interfere with Hibbert's second attack.

"clang!"

Seeing Duncan catch the basketball that bounced back, Parker immediately rushed out, and sure enough, he received Duncan's long pass and scored an easy layup.

"97-95."

“ohhhh!!!”

"I bought it!"

The Pacers led for most of the quarter, but were overtaken by the Spurs in the last three and a half minutes. The fans who came to the away game to support the Spurs cheered.

"pause!"

Vogel quickly called a timeout and prepared to deploy tactics.

"They have collapsed. Let's defend against this attack and defeat them in one fell swoop!"

Popovich told the players.

Dealing with the endgame, that is, experience, is definitely the method the Spurs rely on most. They believe that the young Pacers will never be the Spurs' opponent.

The Spurs, who took advantage of the opportunity and replaced all three GDP players, are the most experienced team in the league today.

If it were before, then Vogel would only trust the pick-and-roll attack of the guard and center in this critical attack. But this time, Vogel looked at George and Qi Tian, ​​who had just been replaced, and said:

"The next attack depends on you two!"

The Spurs, who had taken the lead, were in full swing. If the Pacers couldn't respond, they would have no choice but to let victory slip away from their fingertips.

Although young players can comfort themselves by paying tuition, no one wants to lose the game.
