The King of the NBA

McHale warned his opponents, reminding them not to take it lightly. The Timberwolves are not a weak team, and the final counterattack will be crazy and terrible.

The Rockets players said yes, I have felt them.

For the Timberwolves, Adelman didn't arrange anything, but just encouraged everyone, telling everyone that they don't need to think too much, just play well for these few minutes, go all out, and just keep moving forward.

"beep"

The whistle blows and the timeout ends.

In the auditorium, all the fans became nervous. The difference of 11 points is not small, but the Timberwolves are not hopeless. At this point in the game, there are too many variables, and anything can happen.

At the same time, the fans are also very excited, what is the playoffs? This is the playoffs. The biggest difference between the playoffs and the regular season is that no one will give up.

"attack!"

The Rockets attack.

This time, Harden simply pushed forward with the ball, and Martin immediately posted it after reaching the frontcourt, but the Rockets were obviously prepared, Harden retreated, and at the same time Howard mentioned going up the line and set a pick-and-roll for Harden. Haunting Harden.

Pekovic also stepped forward, delaying Harden, but facing Pekovic, Harden was very straightforward. He passed Pekovic with a change of direction and accelerated, took advantage of the trend with a backhand layup and scored two points.

This is purely personal ability.

For the Timberwolves, Love wanted the ball and singled Jones. Someone from the Rockets stepped up to help defend, but it didn't work.

You come and go, and the core players of both sides can score.

But time is getting shorter and shorter, and this is just as detrimental to the Timberwolves.

"Defend, defend well." Ning Yi shouted.

At this time, you must defend and then score. If you can't defend, everything is useless.

Ning Yi ran forward, received a pass from Rubio, and raised the ball directly in front of Parsons. Parsons was startled, but he had already been fooled before, so he didn't jump up this time. But what if you didn't jump up? He has subconsciously raised the center of gravity. Today's Ning Yi is not Ning Yi a few months ago. Parsons raised the center of gravity a little, which is enough for Ning Yi.

Whoosh!

Ning Yi accelerated, passed by Parsons, scored the ball after reaching the inside line, and gave it to the right bottom corner outside the three-point line. Martin received the ball and it was a three-pointer.

boom!

Did not enter.

"It's over."

"Damn it, it would be great if I got in, there really isn't enough time."

Timberwolves fans lamented, their heartstrings tensed.

Howard took the rebound and passed it to Harden, but at this moment, the figure flashed, Ning Yi suddenly turned around, flashing from the side like a ghost, Howard didn't pay attention, Harden didn't pay attention, only heard the "pop" With a sound, Ning Yi cut the ball off.

"Damn." Howard was furious, and immediately adjusted to hold his position, waiting for Ning Yi to come over.

Harden also reacted and pushed towards Ning Yi.

At this time, the others hadn't reacted, and there was no time to participate, but Ning Yi was one-on-two. Everyone was nervous about it, but suddenly found that Ning Yi turned around with the ball, and instead of going inside, he bypassed He passed Harden and retreated beyond the three-point line.

What a surprise.

Everyone didn't expect it, and Harden didn't expect it, so he was easily bypassed by Ning Yi. When Ning Yi was outside the three-point line, Harden realized that he had just turned around and was about to chase, when he saw the basketball from Ning Yi's fingertips It flew up, drew a beautiful arc, and then with a "shua", the white waves rolled.

"Roar"

Timberwolves fans exploded.

This ball is so inspiring and beautiful.

Ning Yi made a steal and didn't choose to make a layup, but chose to pull down the outside line and shoot a three-pointer. Most people might not dare to think about it, but Ning Yi did it like this, and he even made it.

"The difference is only 8 points."

"There is still a chance, there is still a chance."

The Timberwolves fans were excited, staring at the court without blinking.

The hearts of the Rockets fans are in suspense. Is there still suspense at this time?

"It's okay, we still lead by 8 points, just play steadily." McHale hesitated for a moment, did not call a timeout, but still got up, and shouted to the field: "Play steadily."

The Rockets players understood and started to attack.

This time it was Harden, but everyone knew he would play, and the Timberwolves were not unprepared. Harden failed to score this time, and the ball bounced out of the basket, but Howard actually took the offensive rebound and made up for it. Fouled by Pekovic during the basket. Howard went to the free throw line and missed two free throws.

"Damn." Howard himself is also very depressed, his free throws are too smelly.

At this time, time is really running out, there are only three minutes left, and the score difference is 8 points. The Timberwolves quickly launched an attack. Rubio passed the ball to Ning Yi when he arrived in the frontcourt. The location is better, so Ning Yi passed it to Le Fu.

Snapped!

beep!

Thugs, blow the whistle.

The referee pointed at Jones and gave him a foul.

Love walked to the free throw line, and he also walked to the free throw line, but Love’s free throws were much better than Howard’s. He glanced at the basket, flicked his wrist, made the first free throw, and then also made the second free throw. , narrowed the point difference to only 6 points left.

McHale couldn't take it anymore and called a timeout.

"I tell you to play more steadily, be patient, and suppress the rhythm." McHale was very angry, and his tone was stern, "Also, defense, defense, you must do a good job of defense, and you can't let the opponent score easily, you know?"

Several Rockets players responded one after another, expressionless.

Here, the atmosphere of the Timberwolves is not easy. Although they have played very well in the past few minutes, they have chased the point difference to only 6 points, but time is running out, and the 6 point difference is still a problem.

"Whoa, whoa"

Adelman frowned, not knowing what to do. The player's physical fitness has reached the limit, and there are more than two minutes left. Can he make a comeback?

The whistle blew, the last two minutes or so.

In the last two minutes or so, the Rockets played very patiently and deliberately suppressed the rhythm. They would rather spend 24 seconds until the end before making a shot than rushing to play. Harden once again showed his super personal ability. The two-pointer at the buzzer almost made the Timberwolves fans feel desperate.

But when he turned around, the Timberwolves returned one. Love and Ning Yi connected. Love singled out and attracted the defense. Howard also caused a foul.

Swish!

An additional penalty hit, 2+1 scored, and the point difference was 5 points.

In the end, there was more than one minute left, with a difference of 5 points. The Rockets had no timeout, and the Timberwolves still had, but Adelman did not call a timeout. It cannot be called at this time. Let the players finish playing in one breath and they can still hold on. But if a timeout is called to let the breath loose in the players' bodies, then it may be difficult for them to continue their firepower given their physical condition.

So Adelman did not call a timeout and handed the game over to the players.
