No more miracles, or rather, the last 34 seconds of miracles belonged to both teams.
In the last 34 seconds, the ball belonged to the Knicks, and Zuo Li was the first to call a timeout.
On the bench, D'Antoni with a tactical board was running fast, and he had to come up with a sufficiently complete offensive and defensive tactics within a dozen seconds.
His image is not very good. The red tie at the beginning of the game has been thrown to an unknown corner, and fine sweat beads are also occupied on his forehead. It is conceivable that this game consumes not only the players who are fighting on the field, but also Have him the head coach of the audience ob.
But he doesn't care, as long as he can win, he can run naked. Now, he only needs a tactic.
This time is enough for them to complete a 24-second attack, but this time is also ambiguous. Even if the 24-second attack is completed, it will leave the opponent with a full 10 seconds of attack time. In the nba, 10 seconds can do too much, so Nick All he has to do is score the ball. If he doesn't score, the chance for a lore will be left to the opponent, so this attack is very important.
"Pick-and-roll! Randolph, you go to the free throw, David Lee, go to the 3, Chandler down, Dragic, Duhon, all you two have to do is give the ball to the left, Randolph Pick-and-roll, stand on the left, and when I get the ball, I'll let Dragic go to the right corner, and David Lee to the left corner, and if he's double-teamed, he can pass."
In the end, D'Antoni chose the most classic tactic, which is to give the ball to the core!
This tactic is old, but useful.
This is the meaning of a star. A star who can't stand up at the last moment is not worthy of being called a star at all. At this time, D'Antoni obviously trusts Zuo Li the most.
Of course, Zuo Li deserves D'Antoni's trust tonight. Zuo Li, who started fighting from the first second, has played a game-high 45 minutes, scoring 20 points, 16 rebounds, 6 blocks and 8 assists. The goals are all related to him, and he is also the only player on the team to maintain a shooting percentage of more than 50%.
Looking at the score tonight and this terrifying hand-to-hand defense, Zuo Li can be called the best player tonight, and the other four are also online players tonight. In foul trouble, maybe they've won.
Zuo Li nodded to indicate that he understood. Zuo Li was no stranger to taking control of the last attack. Now that he didn't feel tired, he just wanted to throw the basketball into the **** frame!
"Remember, don't make mistakes, don't grab rebounds if you can't make a shot, and go back to defense quickly!" D'Antoni kept exhorting before going on the court.
And with murderous intent, the Knicks players took to the court.
But the Celtics obviously knew who to guard at this time. Zuo Li suffered a brutal pull, and it took five seconds to watch!
"I'll block you!" Randolph shouted, blocking Perkins, the two rolled into a ball and the referee ignored it.
D'Antoni didn't bother to question the referee because Zuo Li finally got the basketball at the last second.
Dribbling the top of the arc, Pierce was defending him. At this time, the Celtics could not let Perkins be broken through. Pierce obviously knew how to take advantage of his own advantages. Seeing that 20 seconds passed, Zuo Li chose three steps to strengthen!
Lean on Pierce, push it up, step back and throw!
Hit the board into the frame! !
"Yes!" Zuo Li waved his hand fiercely, and then hurriedly greeted his teammates to return to defense until the Celtics called a timeout.
"It has to be said that this is the planet of the ball! The more the time comes, the more the strength of the star is tested!" Barkley felt that the great power in his body could no longer be held back.
Madison Square Garden has gone crazy. This decisive goal can not only dampen the morale of the opponent, but also greatly improve the morale of one's own team. More importantly, Zuo Li made a crucial throw, 81-79, Dongjue seems to be waving to them already!
Nearly 20,000 Knicks fans chanted Zuoli's name in unison, and the entire Madison Square Garden shook instantly.
However, the Celtics also have a star to stand out.
At the most critical moment, they still trusted Pierce the most. In this game, Pierce was called a god. Ray Allen made only 2 of 8 three-pointers, and Perkins made only 1 of 6, but Pierce broke the money. Dele, who scored 28 points and 10 rebounds, made only 2 turnovers, and played enough to stand side by side with Zuoli.
Rivers used the last long timeout, which was an unsuccessful shot, and he, who is good at pouring chicken soup, laid out the most concise tactics this time.
That is to use Ray Allen as a feint, Pierce pulls out the ball and shoots on his own!
This tactic fooled everyone, including Zuo Li.
As they served, Zuo Li shouted, "It's Ray Allen!"
Then he threw out directly, but after receiving the sideline ball, Ray Allen jumped up, faced the block from the left standing and blocked the sky, passed the ball directly to the right, and Pierce raised his hand and threw it!
brush!
The ball into the light, Pierce hit a goal! !
The scene was suddenly mourning.
Overtime!
Overtime for the tiebreaker!
"Hoo~!" Pierce roared back after scoring the goal, the Celtics rushed into the court excitedly, and Garnett, who had survived the disaster, screamed in the sky on the sidelines.
They haven't lost yet!
"It's really hard to hit." Zuo Li shook his head with a wry smile on his knees. Is this the charm of the Celtics? Although the referee went to look back, Zuo Li knew it was a good shot and his journey was not over yet. UU Reading
"Then do it! Don't let the victory slip away!" Zuo Li shouted in front of the bench, what is needed at this time is willpower.
Director Zhang also said: "This is the time to test who has stronger willpower and stronger desire to win."
And Yang Yi said: "The Celtics are not knowing whether they can keep up with their physical fitness. They are several years old."
But Zuo Li knew that, regardless of the regular season, these veterans were all playing healthy basketball, and in the playoffs, they were even more powerful than young people.
Especially at critical moments, experience is their greatest weapon.
Sure enough, after a 5-minute overtime break, both sides replaced the Celtics with the starter and the first kick-off.
The two sides came up to fight again, 3 and a half minutes, without a point. This intensity made the hearts of fans pass.
At this time, the Celtics took the lead in attacking, using experience, Pierce's original strong force had been interfered by Zuoli, but Perkins shot to the basket and filled the ball in front of Randolph.
Afterwards, the Knicks shot hard, Zuo Li was called for a foul for the blue cricket ball, and when the Knicks were competing with the referee, Ray Allen, who had not played much in regular time, shot a cold arrow and scored a three-pointer!
The lead is 5 points in a blink of an eye!
The Knicks are in danger!
In front of the TV, Curry's heart jumped to his throat. Ao Mei covered her eyes and dared not look anymore, and she couldn't stop praying.
At this time, the Knicks also have a general to kill!
After the timeout, the newly-played Ke Liu scored a 3-pointer with the ball when Zuo Li was double-teamed!
This is a three-point dose of life-sustaining!
Afterwards, the left-handed fight under the basket caused Perkins to let go and fight back!
Left standing catches the ball and commits a foul, making 2 free throws from the free throw line!
After 45 seconds, the two sides did not score a point, and the game entered the second overtime~!
