Bulldozer of the NBA’s Restricted Area

The playoffs have reached the championship game. Except for the two teams in the finals, all teams have had a holiday. Naturally, the fans have turned their attention to the ongoing G3 game in New York, and all the media have spared no effort to fight for it. Report.

Who can reach the top?

The answer seems to be slowly shifting in the direction of Salt Lake City, because the Jazz, who have a dominant regular season record, have an extra home court, and they have also established a two-game advantage first, and the second half of the G3 game is also in full swing.

For the Knicks, Ewing reappeared and Oakley did not play. They just took down players with poor touch in other positions. After all, the defense on the outside against the Jazz was irrelevant. The offense was the top priority, and the defensive point guard Derek Harper was directly replaced by shooting guard substitute Doc Rivers, aiming to strengthen the offense in a desperate attempt.

Therefore, in the third quarter of the battle, the backcourt combination of Rivers + Starks performed quite well, stabilizing the Knicks' situation. Ewing's condition also improved, but the struggle between Oakley and Malone remained the same. , and even let go of Malone slightly, including Li Shengli in his defense.

Although Oakley had taken good care of Li Shengli before, it was particularly prominent in the third quarter. The moves became bigger and bigger, the fouls became more severe, and even the referee's whistle changed at this most important moment. For Nick Si took great care of me.

At this point, Li Shengli's offensive was slightly suppressed, and Malone felt warmer and joined the battle. For a while, the melee on the line became extremely fierce and fouls were committed... Although the Knicks showed signs of counterattack, the Jazz clung to the two-point difference.

Played until the last 34 seconds of the third quarter!

If nothing else happens, both sides will have one round of offense each, and the point difference at this time is 10 points. The Knicks will attack first and the Jazz will attack later.

…

In the audience on the sidelines, Thompson and Kareem Abdul-Jabbar will naturally not miss any Jazz game, and this time they are accompanied by Elgin Baylor.

"Basically no problem, the Jazz should have won!" Seeing the situation after three quarters, Thompson was overjoyed and happy for Li Shengli.

"That's right, if we lose this game, the Knicks will have nothing! Speaking of which, guys, should we discuss now... who will be the MVP of the Finals this time?" Kareem Abdul-Jabbar also smiled, and Of course, he, who has always been withdrawn, still hopes that Li Shengli will win FMVP again.

"The fight isn't over yet, I think..."

"Shut up, shut up, I don't want to hear what you say!" Thompson was shocked when he heard Lord Baylor speak. After all, at this time, it was better for the crow's mouth to remain silent.

Oh shit!

Why don't you let me speak?

Do you really regard me as the number one loser?

The cursed Lord Baylor has no sober self-awareness at all. Instead, he actively expresses his opinions to show his sense of existence, "Shit, Thompson, can you show some respect to me when you are riding a horse?"

"You have all seen this game. The championship basically depends on this last quarter. But you two have seen it. Can the Knicks not see it?" Baylor sped up and spoke faster. For fear that Kareem Abdul-Jabbar and Thompson would team up to strangle him, "Just watch, there will definitely be a rush in the last quarter..."

"Thompson, fuck him!"

"Copy that, Belle, shut up!"

"Damn it, I'm so old, don't hit me, watch the game, watch the game!"

…

The three big guys were fighting in the audience, and the field was already at the end of the third quarter. Pat Riley called a timeout and arranged it a little, while Ewing and Oakley looked at each other. , with a hint of fierceness in his eyes.

Because there are only 34 seconds left in this quarter, the Knicks still have the advantage to attack first.

As long as the attack time is extended beyond 20 seconds, the time left for the Jazz will be less than 14 seconds. In 14 seconds, the Knicks will inevitably press the whole court and compress the space, making the offense difficult, so... I want to bring it with me Entering the fourth quarter with a 10-point deficit, the Jazz's defense was more important than their offense.

Speaking of which, Oakley played three quarters and his physical fitness declined. Originally, he was not the focus of the Knicks' offense. However, in this round, after his teammates dawdled for a while and spent more than ten seconds, he took the initiative to ask for the ball and beat Malone alone. !

What are you doing?

The fans at the scene couldn't bear it anymore.

After all, it's not that wise to let Oakley play alone at critical moments. He doesn't even have any offensive coordination, so he just plays it so dryly? !

When something goes wrong, there must be a monster!

At this moment, both Li Shengli and Ma Long had doubts, but time was tight and there was no room for overthinking. Malone rushed forward to face Oakley, not giving up an inch of ground even outside the penalty area.

…

"Come on, you son of a bitch!" Oakley saw Malone step forward with a fierce look in his eyes.

"Why, Ewing didn't take action, so you, a loser, did it?" Malone was not a good person and immediately fought back. However, he was not worried that Oakley would dare to hit the basket with Li Shengli, so he directly followed Oakley to guard against him. turnaround jump shot.

Oakley didn't speak anymore. He turned his back and grabbed the ball with both hands. He used his right foot as the axis and connected the left and right points, as if he wanted to squeeze into the basket. But the action of grabbing the ball with both hands made the tips of his elbows level with his chest, left and right. The feint took the elbow to the extreme, and it looked like it was just... hitting someone with the elbow!

"Damn it, what are you doing?" Jerry Sloan gritted his teeth and yelled directly at the referee on the sidelines: "You don't even brag about it when you are on horseback, are you blind?"

blow?

I'll blow your ass off!

The referee was sprayed with saliva and his face was livid. Not only did he not call Oakley, he even wanted to call Jerry Sloan for insulting the referee and a technical foul, but the actual operation was... pretending to be blind!

…

So the battle at position 4 between the two sides continues!

Oakley teased Malone's bottom line to his heart's content, and the elbow strikes were as violent as raindrops. Malone on the other side took all the elbows because he was close to the body. The elbow on the arm was nothing, but the elbow on the armpit made him grimace in pain.

After some friction, it probably feels almost done.

Oakley's weird back turn seemed to be a little slow, and in a face-to-face position, how could Malone not reach for the ball and steal it... So Malone subconsciously reached out to steal the ball. Oakley did not retreat but advanced, holding the ball with both hands and beating Malone. His arm was stuck between his own arms, and then he kicked off the ground with all his strength.

To be honest, this action is like a free throw trick commonly used by backcourt players. They actively create contact and then take another shot, either 2+1 or 2 free throws.

However, Oakley is not a backcourt player. As a famous bad guy, he completely maximized the lethality of this action and jumped up instantly with Malone's arm!

Generally speaking, even if Malone couldn't defend himself, it would be fine if he raised his arm high, but Oakley made it clear that he wanted to be dirty and was determined to destroy Malone's hand, so his shooting posture was horribly twisted, and his body was still leaning forward. , pulling Ma Long's arm back hard.

Plop!

There was a muffled sound and Ma Long fell to the ground.
