“Pull away.”
Ning Yi made a gesture, the others pulled away, he singled James, continuously changed direction, and then suddenly accelerated, James was slightly slower by half a beat and was passed by Ning Yi.
After Ning Yi killed the inside, Pekovic and Mozkovcizi rushed forward, but Ning Yi threw the ball, which looked like a throw, but actually was a pass, Dion He jumped up and dunked.
After two rounds, Ning Yi attracted the defense and passed the ball to Love. Love made a shot. After seeing Martin slip from the bottom line, he passed the ball immediately. Martin received the ball and scored against the basket.
cheers in the audience.
The Cavaliers requested a timeout. The first quarter had already been played for more than nine minutes, while the Cavaliers were behind by 7 points. Yes, it changed from 7 points leading to 7 points behind.
During this time, the Timberwolves played too well, not only Ning Yi and Love, but everyone else also played very well. The team played a little bit more, and the shooting rate was very high, so not only did they catch up with the score, but also lead 7 Minute.
The two parties began to make adjustments.
The rotation time of the Timberwolves also has the upper hand. Several substitute players play better and better. They have adapted to the rhythm and are inseparable from the Cavaliers’ killing.
When the first quarter ended, the Timberwolves led by 9 points.
“The Timberwolves played well this time.”
“It looks like the Timberwolves are in good shape today, and they have a good chance of winning.”
“They can’t afford to lose this time, it’s 13 if they lose. It’s hard to turn over.”
Break during the festival, fans are talking.
And the second quarter soon began, the Timberwolves still have the upper hand, wait until the end of the first half Timberwolves lead 13 points. However, after entering the second half, the Cavaliers started to counterattack. This time it was not James, but Owen. He made two consecutive three-pointers in the outside rim and led the Cavaliers to a wave of 80 shock waves, narrowing the point difference.
Ning Yi and Le Fu from the Timberwolves responded quickly, but the difference was reduced to only a few points.
By the end of the third quarter, the Timberwolves only led 7 points.
“Wait is the most important thing, give me a good fight, we can’t lose.” Adelman killed him in the face, and gave several bench players a dead order. “Never let the opponent catch up with the score. You must guarantee the lead. ,do you understand?”
“Understood.” Several people agreed in unison.
The last section begins.
Ning Yi sat on the sidelines but couldn’t relax. She kept staring at the field. Both sides of you came and went. They were very fierce, with a lot of small movements, and many physical contacts. The referee was a little numb. Make it clear to hand the game to the players themselves. And the more so, the bigger the actions of both parties.
Jokic, Whiteside, Clarkson have never experienced such a battle, but fortunately, there are two experienced veterans, Jack and Brewer, the two veterans with three young players live to block the Cavaliers Offensive.
A few minutes later, the points difference was eroded, only two points left, but Adelman was quite satisfied with the performance of the players, at least completed the task and held the lead.
“Substitution.” Adelman made a substitution and began to gradually replace the main players.
On the other side, the Cavaliers also replaced.
The two sides entered the final decisive stage. Ning Yi and Le Fu looked at each other and knew that this was a test. At this time, they must bear the pressure and responsibility.
On the Cavaliers side, James opened the full force mode.
I saw that he took the ball as a singles, forcibly crushed, pushed Ning Yi to the inside, Dion jumped, his arms were raised, and the fan was covered, the arm fell on James’s hand, pulling him alive. Down.
“beep”
Dion eats a foul, but he doesn’t care. At this time, it is to be fierce. Even if James is put on the free throw line, he will not be allowed to score. Because James’ state is up, it can’t be stopped.
Ning Yi came to Dion and whispered: “It’s right. That’s it. Don’t be afraid of too many fouls. We have some rotations. But remember, fouls must be ruthless and can’t make him 21.”
Dion nodded, you must be **** fouls against James, not against him, but James’s physical fitness is too good, your general fouls can’t pull down at all, only he will be scored 21.
Uh, uh!
James hit with a penalty and tied the score.
The Timberwolves attacked, Ning Yi took the ball, asked for a pick-and-roll, and then decisively pulled out, shot directly outside the three-point line, with a little back, the arc of the shot was very high, almost fell vertically into the rim, even the nets Did not move.
Three points are effective, the Timberwolves lead again.
The Cavaliers have been biting the score for the next few minutes, chasing behind, putting a lot of pressure on the Timberwolves, because you can’t make mistakes, as long as you make mistakes, the opponent will seize the opportunity to overtake the score. And when the opponent overtakes the score, it will not be so easy if you want to overtake again.
So Ning Yi and Le Fu did their best, staring at each other’s pressure again and again, pressing the opponent’s counterattack again and again, helping the Timberwolves to maintain their lead.
In the last two minutes, Dion graduated with 6 offenses, and Adelman called for a timeout.
“Whiteside.” Adelman called out. “Waiting for you, your task is to protect the rebounds and defend. Don’t be afraid of fouls, but remember, don’t make meaningless fouls. “
“Yes.” Whiteside focused on his head, he knew it was crucial at this time.
Then Adelman looked at Ning Yi and Love, Shen said: “It’s yours.”
In the last two minutes, the Timberwolves led by 4 points, but because of Dion foul, Owen will take the free throw line to perform two free throws, if the two free throws are made, the difference in points is only two points.
When the timeout ended, Irving took the free throw line, but the first penalty was missed, which made the Timberwolves fans relieved. The second penalty hit, with 3 points left.
Rubio advanced to the frontcourt and immediately gave the ball to Ning Yi. Ning Yi stared at James~www.mtlnovel.com~ took a deep breath and chose singles. He must force himself. I saw Ning Yi’s continuous fake moves, and then suddenly started, James retreated, Ning Yi stopped suddenly, and then took a step aside, raised his hand and cast.
James pounced, reaching for the basketball.
Now!
The goal was still scored.
Ning Yi growled and waved his lower arm fiercely.
This ball became the key goal, and the two sides failed to score in the next minute. The Cavaliers called a timeout. After returning, James broke into the inside and scored, but there was still a three-point difference.
The Timberwolves attacked, Carrefour missed the shot, the Cavaliers called a timeout again, they still have a chance to make a three-pointer, and it is of course good to score. A three point.
This time, Irving shot, but failed to make a 3-pointer.
“Rebounds.”
“Rebounds.”
everyone shouted.
Changed a minute ago, tt jumped up and grabbed the rebound, but the other hand was faster than him. He first took the basketball away. He quickly looked at it, but it was Whiteside.
Whiteside hugged the ball, not letting go.
“It’s over.”
“Time is running out.”
The last two seconds passed in a flash.
The Cavaliers had no chance, they did not suspend, so even the foul tactics lost meaning.
