The King of the NBA

How much can happen in five minutes?

What can you do in five minutes?

For ordinary people, five minutes may be just the time to smoke a cigarette, not even enough to drink a cup of coffee. But for a game, the crucial five minutes can determine the outcome of the entire game.

The game between the Timberwolves and the Spurs has reached the most critical moment. The Spurs still lead by 6 points, and the ball is still in their hands. After passing the ball a few times, they gave the ball to Duncan.

When Duncan got the ball, the Timberwolves responded immediately-double-teaming!

Duncan has an advantage in the paint, whether it is strength or experience, Pekovic has checked some, not to mention Duncan is very stable, the more critical the moment is, the more calm he can be.

If you don't double-team Duncan at this time and let him score easily, it will be troublesome.

Seeing the double-team, Duncan immediately distributed the ball to the outside line. Parker took the ball and passed it to Ginobili.

Swish!

The goal was scored, and the score was 8 points.

The Timberwolves fought back, and they exchanged glances and nodded together.

After Rubio advanced to the frontcourt, he handed it to Martin immediately. Martin tried singles, but there was no good chance. He split the ball to Brewer, and Brewer passed it to Ning Yi.

When Ning Yi took the ball, Leonard immediately posted it, leaning very close, staring at Ning Yi with his hands open, with a serious expression, ready to fight.

"Did he feel it?" Ning Yi and Leonard made eye contact, and his heart suddenly moved, but he soon stopped thinking about it, pinched the ball around his waist, tapped his right foot in front of him, and lowered his center of gravity. The left shoulder sinks.

"Is it on the left?" Leonard raised his brows and moved his center of gravity to the right, but he still kept some strength, even if Ning Yi was swaying, it didn't matter.

The next moment, Ning Yi started.

It wasn't a feint or a fake move, Ning Yi just broke through from the left side, exerted force with his left foot, the sneakers rubbed against the floor, and with a scoffing sound, Ning Yi jumped out at a very fast speed.

Leonard was not slow to react, and immediately took a step back.

But at this moment, Ning Yi suddenly stepped on a brake, stopped his body, and just pulled it up, shaking his wrist in front of Leonard.

"Is it an emergency stop jump shot?" Leonard jumped up instinctively, but he was still a step slower. After all, he was retreating, and Ning Yi's shot speed was too fast, so when Leonard raised his hand, Ning Yi has already shot.

Swish!

With a soft sound, the ball went hollow into the net.

Ning Yi turned around, with a touch of excitement on his face, and walked towards his own half.

Behind, Leonard looked at Ning Yi's back and frowned. The original strange feeling became clearer. At the moment Ning Yi shot, he felt that Ning Yi was different again.

"What's different?" Leonard wondered.

With a score difference of 6 points, the Spurs attacked.

This time the Spurs failed to score. When they turned around, Timberwolves scored one from Martin, reducing the point difference to 4 points. But just a few tens of seconds later, Parker assisted Ginobili, Yaodao made a three-pointer, and once again widened the point difference.

At this time, there were only a little over three minutes left in the game.

"Time is getting less and less." Ning Yi thought to himself, clenched his fist, and said to Rubio: "Give me the ball later."

"Okay." Rubio nodded.

When Rubio advanced to the frontcourt, Ning Yi ran back immediately, and at the same time gave Pekovic a gesture. The two passed by, and Pekovic made a cover for Ning Yi. Ning Yi threw off Leonard, and Rubio passed the ball.

In the next moment, Ning Yi didn't stop, and took off with the ball. There was a defensive person in front of him, and Leonard also bypassed Pekovic and rushed over, but Ning Yi didn't care, and shot resolutely.

Another CIC.

Another hit.

The point difference became 5 points.

"I understand what's different. His eyes, the look in his eyes when shooting, are different from before." Leonard finally knew what was different.

Compared with before, Ning Yi now has some changes in his breath, but the most changed is his eyes. When he shoots, the confidence in his eyes surpasses the past.

But why?

This is the key point, which makes Leonard wonder, that is, what has Ning Yi experienced in the past quarter, and how can there be such a change?

"Sure enough, it's different from before." Ning Yi said to himself, couldn't help being excited.

He was replaced in the third minute of the fourth quarter, and during the time he was sitting off the court, he finally broke through and successfully activated the "Level 8 mid-range shooting skill", another transformation.

You know, Ning Yi today is not the Ning Yi of the past. He has made great progress and has made great improvements in all aspects. When these are combined, his strength is far stronger than the average NBA player.

Now CIC has made a further breakthrough, and CIC's skills have reached level 8, which is equal to the first-class level of the nba. With other assistance, combined, Ning Yi's strength has approached the first-class level of the nba.

It is precisely because of this that Ning Yi is so confident.

Tens of seconds later, Ning Yi shot again, but failed to make a shot. Fortunately, his teammates took the offensive rebound and passed it to Ning Yi. Ning Yi made a decisive shot, and this time he did.

He made 3 of 4 shots and scored 6 points in a moment.

This is due to the breakthrough in strength, and also due to Ning Yi's current state. Before the breakthrough, he was in a state of bursting, and now his state is also very hot, which is a super-level performance.

When Ning Yi made consecutive hits, Martin was not idle. He and Ning Yi supported the Timberwolves' offense together, and the two included all the points of the Timberwolves during this period.

With the strength of the two of them, Shengsheng narrowed the point difference to only 3 points.

At this time, Popovich finally called a timeout, because there was only one minute left, and he had to make arrangements so that the Timberwolves could not be overthrown in the end.

On the Timberwolves side, Adelman had a serious expression and didn't feel relaxed at all. When the players came down, he immediately spread out the tactical board and began to arrange tactics.

The game isn't over yet.

In the auditorium, people were nervous. There was one minute left, and with a 3-point difference, anything could happen.

"beep"

The whistle blows and the timeout ends.

After returning from the timeout, both sides scored one each. The Spurs scored a 2-pointer, and the Timberwolves Brewer hit a 3-pointer. The difference between the two sides was 2 points.

Adelman called a timeout, with only a dozen seconds left in the attack time, and the ball was still on the Timberwolves' side. This is their last chance. Whether they can drag the game into overtime or kill their opponents is just a matter of ten seconds.

"Let me tell you, wait for this ball. Ning Yi will shoot it." Adelman said in an undeniable tone, and handed over the last attack to Ning Yi.

This is a kind of trust, but also a kind of test, very risky.
