Chapter 329
See Overtime Again
Facing the double-team between Kobe and Derek Fisher, Wu Feng calmly handed the ball to Vince Carter. Wu Feng, Vince Carter and Gerald Wallace were all outside the three-point line. The pass was like tactical training, pulling the Lakers' defense line around, and it seemed patient in offense.
Affected by the tense atmosphere on the court, the fans of the game couldn't help but silence.
At the last moment, Wu Feng's tired look seemed to be wiped out. His skillful ball control movements sank slightly, ready to go, and his muscles were stretched out, like a cheetah foraging, and his lightning breakthrough shocked Derek Fisher.
He took a step back, but Wu Feng did not appear in his judgement position. Instead, he took a step back, tapped the ground with his left foot, and he wanted to take off into the air.
Derek Fisher had lost his defensive position at this time and had no time to think about it. He quickly jumped up to block Wu Feng's move.
At this time, there was no basketball in my eyes, looking at Wu Feng smiling below him.
Derek Fisher naturally knew that he had been fooled. With the help of the power of his waist and hyacinth, he forced his body to shift a few centimeters in the air. However, how could Wu Feng let the duck he got fly away again? Even though Derek Fisher was in the air, he was not as flexible as Wu Feng who was down-to-earth.
Just when his body was slightly tilted, Wu Feng's body was knocked into Derek Fisher.
The thrown basketball flew straight into the air. With Wu Feng's physical strength at this time, after causing the opponent's foul, he could no longer send the ball into the basket without losing balance.
The referee's whistle sounded, and with thirty-seven seconds left in the game, Wu Feng got three free throws.
Lakers fans all know what these three free throws mean. With one point lead, the Magic can completely use these three free throws to secure the victory, and Wu Feng's free throws have always been a guarantee of confidence.
After taking the ball thrown by the referee, Wu Feng gently patted the ball twice, took a deep breath, his body sank slightly, lifted the ball with both hands and raised it over his head and shaking his wrist gently, and the basketball flew out along his fingertips. (")
"Swish", hearing this sound, the Amway Center Stadium suddenly became boiling.
Lakers fans who prayed that they would not score this goal were gloomy.
In the frustrated expression of Lakers fans, Wu Feng completed the free throw again, and the ball fell steadily into the net bag. Without any doubt, the three-point advantage had forced the Lakers to a desperate situation.
When Wu Feng was about to get the third goal, Phil Jackson called a timeout. Although Wu Feng's chance of losing the free throw was very low, he still called a timeout. After all, this is the last chance of the Lakers.
Taking advantage of the last chance, the Lakers adjusted the roster. The five players who played were: "An Zhu" Bynum, Paul Gasol, Ron Artest, Kobe and Lao Yu.
"Swish", the crisp sound reached Phil Jackson's ears, making his face look even more serious.
Thirty-seven seconds are enough for them to play an offense. Of course, the remaining time is enough for the Magic to play an offense.
Lakers players lined up near the free throw line. As the referee's whistle sounded, the four people quickly dispersed. Paul Gasol lifted the ball high. At this time, the Magic players' attention was all focused on the outside, ignoring the Black Mamba who quickly interspersed into the inside.
Black Mamba Kobe, who soared into the air in the inside, waved his wings like a big roc, gently picked up the basketball in the air, twisted his waist and buckled his hands back.
In 33 seconds, the Magic temporarily led the Lakers by 2 points with 115:113. Stan Van Gundy was not careless, but instead called a timeout cautiously. The Lakers' timeout just now made Stan Van Gundy feel a little crisis.
The Lakers are too strong and have completed a counterattack in less than five seconds.
After the suspension, the Magic's ball rights.
Wu Feng organized the offense with the ball, trying to spend all the time. In thirty-three seconds, if the Magic make this attack, the hope of winning will be infinitely expanded. "《
Wu Feng controlled the ball steadily. Despite Kobe's constant interference, the ball still jumped in Wu Feng's hands.
Suddenly, Wu Feng discovered a good opportunity to pass the ball, so he gave the ball to Gerald Wallace in the bottom corner. The latter was completely in an open position, so he opened his hand and gave it a three-pointer.
However, surprisingly, Gerald Wallace's open three-pointer failed to make the ball.
"**, protect the rebound." Wu Tian yelled.
But his roar did not guarantee that the rebound would fall into the Magic, but was snatched away by Andrew Bynum.
Moreover, since Wu Feng passed the ball to Gerald Wallace in advance, the remaining time is enough for the Lakers to complete another attack.
Phil Jackson did not call for a timeout because he had no timeout to call for a timeout.
Kobe took the ball and got off the fast break, and Wu Feng held him tightly, not giving him a chance to attack. Kobe took advantage of Paul Gasol's pick-and-roll and went straight to the basket.
Brandon Bass quickly abandoned Paul Gasol and went to make up for Kobe.
However, after Wu Feng saw the movements in Kobe's hand, he immediately shouted: "No, be careful of Gasol!"
But it was too late. When Wu Feng screamed, the ball in Kobe's hand had already flown into Paul Gasol's hand.
Wu Feng rushed towards Paul Gasol desperately, but unfortunately he was still one step slower due to his physical strength.
Paul Gasol, who was at a high position, took a shot directly after receiving the ball. The speed of the shot made the fans exclaim.
With a "swish", the ball entered!
115:115, the Lakers tied the score!
Stan Van Gundy quickly called for a timeout, with the last 2.1 seconds left, and the Magic still had a little chance.
However, the Magic were not too disappointed, because even if this goal was not scored, they could still play overtime. Although the Magic were in a difficult position, it was difficult for the three old guys on the Lakers to deal with overtime.
After using up the last timeout, the Magic team's generals returned to the field.
Dwight Howard stood on the sideline serving, while Paul Gasol opened his ape's arms and interfered with Dwight Howard's serve.
The remaining four players of the Magic team were running desperately, but the four of the Lakers were holding onto each other like dog skin plaster. Finally, while Vince Carter helped him block a little, Wu Feng ran out of the open position.
Therefore, Dwight Howard naturally would not miss this opportunity and pass the ball towards Wu Feng. However, Dwight Howard despised Paul Gasol's stealing ability.
His super long arms are one of his advantages in stealing.
Under the interference of Paul Gasol, the ball was intercepted by Derek Fisher.
But there is not much time left. Derek Fisher made a long throw shot, and the result is imagined that he didn't even get any rebounds.
At this point, this fierce third final entered overtime.
At the beginning of overtime, there were not many main players on the two teams. From this we can see that the main players on both sides were very hard-working.
On the Lakers side, the Big Three only played the "Beast" Ron Artest, and even Kobe was resting off the court. On the Magic, Wu Feng, Dwight Howard, and Vince Carter did not play, and the core players only played Gerald Wallace.
After playing for almost one and a half minutes in overtime, the Magic, led by "Desperate Saburo" Gerald Wallace, scored a 6:2 small ** and established a 4-point lead.
At this time, Lakers head coach Phil Jackson called a timeout. After this timeout, the main players of both sides were basically coming back.
Sure enough, after this timeout, the main players of both teams returned to the field, and Wu Feng also came up on the Magic.
"Drip" As the referee's whistle sounded, Wu Feng got up from the floor.
Wu Feng just took the position and caused Kobe to make an offensive foul.
As soon as Wu Feng returned to the court, he caused Kobe to make an offensive foul, which is definitely great news for the Magic.
The Lakers are in a good momentum now. The offensive foul created by Wu Feng is a big blow to the morale of the Lakers, especially now, with only three and a half minutes left in overtime. The Lakers are still 4 points behind. As long as the Magic do not make any mistakes, the overall situation is almost decided.
Vince Carter's shooting was not strong enough, and the ball hit the front of the basket. Lamar Odom jumped up, easily took the rebound, followed a long pass, and the ball quickly flew out of the penalty area and headed straight for the Magic's half.
Kobe, who had been waiting in the half, saw the ball passing out, made a little judgment in his heart and immediately rushed to the Magic's basket. According to his estimate, Lamar Odom's passing power was good and he could fly to the free throw line. In this way, he had enough time to get rid of Wu Feng beside him.
Wu Feng rushed back desperately, but what frustrated him was that Kobe had to take the lead before him, so despite his own speed advantage, he still couldn't catch up with him.
After steadily catching the ball, Kobe always maintained the lead on the front line against Wu Feng and scored easily. What made Wu Feng more depressed was that he also lost a foul.
"Swish", Kobe's free throw is also first-class among the defenders.
Stan Van Gundy did not call a timeout. Both teams only have two timeouts left. The only two opportunities are naturally used properly. In his opinion, although the Lakers have shown strong counterattack momentum, the initiative is still in the hands of the Magic.
Wu Feng organized the offense with the ball, and now all the Magic need is stability. After halftime, Wu Feng passed the ball to Gerald Wallace in the bottom corner.
After receiving the ball, Gerald Wallace faced Ron Artest's defense, and first vised twice, then broke through the baseline. Suddenly, Gerald Wallace stopped urgently and then made a jump shot.
Chapter completed!
