Chapter 897 Prove yourself
Chapter 897 Prove yourself
"Shua!" This crisp voice was so moving in the ears of the Warriors fans. After a few seconds of silence, the whole scene seemed to have recovered and erupted into violent cheers.
Li Weisi's goal undoubtedly saved the Warriors, and at the same time let the Sonics' victory fly away.
Although the two teams will play overtime, the outcome is still difficult to distinguish, but this still makes the whole Warriors team very happy. After all, the feeling of escaping from death is really refreshing.
Of course, the joy was short-lived after all. After celebrating appropriately, they went into overtime again.
In the 5-minute overtime, almost every round is very important, because it is very likely that whether the goal can be scored in this round can determine the outcome of the entire game.
However, after the start of overtime, in 2 minutes, the two sides did not score a single point in several rounds.
On the jump ball in overtime, Divac beat Kemp.
The reason why it was Kemp's jump ball was mainly because the team's center Johnson was not sent to the field, but Perkins was used to replace him. After all, Perkins' offensive firepower was urgently needed by the Supersonics at this time.
But it is a pity that the firepower of the two teams is a bit out of gear at this moment. Even Payton and Li Weisi, who were the most active in the second half of the fourth quarter, failed to make a few shots.
However, this situation will not last forever.
Taking advantage of the Supersonics' failure to make a shot, the Warriors received the rebound and started to switch. Since the Supersonics retreated in time, the Warriors did not have a chance to break fast.
Seeing this situation, Li Weisi took the ball to the frontcourt without haste, and then waved to Divac for a pick-and-roll.
All of this seemed so normal, but at this moment, Li Weisi made the same move as Payton did at the end of the fourth quarter, directly choosing to hang the pick-and-roll and make a three-pointer.
Camp, whose defensive position was too inside, was caught off guard, allowing Li Weisi to complete the shot.
In fact, Li Weisi just tried a three-pointer two rounds ago, but unfortunately missed, so Kemp was a little careless.
But this time, Li Weisi did not miss another chance, the basketball went into the net hollow, 93:90, and the Warriors led by three points.
This time, the entire pressure came to the Sonics. Faced with such a situation, Payton still stood up. He drove into the penalty area, successfully caused Divac's fifth foul, and went to the free throw line.
With two free throws, Payton chased the score to 93:92. At this time, Payton had already scored his 30th point of the night.
As a person who averaged only 19.3 points per game, Payton's scoring tonight has definitely exceeded his performance in the usual game, which shows how much he cares about the victory of this game tonight.
But it is a pity that his opponent is a warrior, and it is Li Weisi's warrior.
Having personally shattered the inevitable victory for the Supersonics, Li Weisi wanted to throw it completely into the trash can, resolutely not giving the opponent a chance to come back.
Just after Payton finished the free throw, the two teams each missed a goal. This time the Warriors attacked, and Li Weisi chose to come by himself again.
Using the pick-and-roll, Li Weisi broke through Kemp's defense with an acceleration while Kemp was in a relatively forward position. Li Weisi rushed into the basket without even waiting for Payton and Kemp to double-team.
Seeing this, Perkins hurried over to stop Li Weisi, but Li Weisi completed the shot before him, using a high wiper, bypassing Perkins' interference, and successfully scored the ball.
As soon as the goal was scored, the point difference between the two teams came to 3 points again, and more importantly, the time has become less and less, and the extra time has entered the last minute.
In order to seize the opportunity, the Supersonics did not procrastinate. In the offense, Payton finally no longer chose to attack by himself this time, but distributed the ball to Kemp who was going down.
Don't look at Kemp who has played for 48 minutes at this time, but he is still vigorous, and rushed directly to Rodman and Divac.
I have to say that sometimes being reckless is really more effective than your chance to think hard.
Although Kemp failed to put the ball in the basket, he managed to draw Divac's sixth foul, walking to the free throw line and sending Divac off the court.
Divac's end, at this time, has a big impact on the Warriors. Regardless of Divac's poor performance tonight, he only scored 8 points, 8 rebounds and 4 assists, but Divac is the Warriors' inside offense The axis of development is by no means what the data can reflect.
After careful consideration, Nelson did not send PJ Brown on the field as everyone imagined, but Horry on the field.
As a result, the Warriors' lineup is even shorter than the Sonics.
For Nelson's coquettish operation, the audience at the scene were sweating. Shouldn't they go to the big lineup to grab rebounds at this time?Send a small lineup, what if you can't grab the opponent's rebounds?
However, the audience's worries are superfluous. Don't look at Kemp's fierce face, but Mang Zhangfei can also show his needlework. Kemp's free throw percentage has been stable at more than [-]% all year round. Therefore, with two free throws Among them, Warriors fans don't have to worry about not being able to grab rebounds, because there are no rebounds to grab.
The score was 95:94, and the Warriors still led by one point.
However, the Warriors failed to succeed in the next attack. Horry, who had just played, failed to grasp the opportunity Li Weisi created for him, causing the offense to come to the Warriors again.
Payton took the opportunity to push back and successfully caused Li Weisi's foul in the frontcourt, and went to the free throw line again.
Regardless of the fact that every point the Sonics scored in overtime was at the free throw line, it really worked.
However, as soon as it came up, Payton missed the first free throw again, which made the scene burst into louder cheers than Li Weisi's Jueping goal just now.
At this time, with the last 16 seconds left before the end of the game, the Warriors had the last chance to attack. The whole situation was in stark contrast to the final stage of the regular season.
After Li Weisi came to the front court with the ball, like Payton, he also chose to waste time and wait for the last moment before making a shot.
"9 seconds, 8 seconds, 7 seconds..." As time dwindled, Li Weisi finally started.
Instead of calling a pick-and-roll, he directly used a crossover to successfully break through from Payton's right side. The ball was once again given to Horry, who had just missed the ball in the previous round.
At this time, Huo Li was so nervous that he missed the ball before, and he heard the audience on the sidelines calling him "undercover". It's also shit.
At that time, although the pressure was high, it was also the time to prove him, and there is one thing to say, Horry's heart is not so big. I saw him adjust his breathing, and after receiving the ball, he calmly completed all the shooting actions, and eventually he will The ball is thrown.
After a long flight, the basketball finally fell into the basket accurately, and Horry made this damn corner three-pointer, a three-point lore!
