Chapter 1209 One Attack and One Defense that Dominate the Game

Ji Feng delivered his 11th assist of the game, helping the team to reduce the difference to 2 points, which is the smallest difference since the opening today, and there are still the last 2 minutes left, the most exciting, tense and most exciting. The exciting time has come!

"T-MAC!"

"T-MAC!"

"T-MAC!"

There was a long-lost cry from the Toyota Center. Since this season, with McGrady's weak state, such a cry has not been heard for a long time. Tonight, at the last moment, the Rockets fans once again called out. King.

McGrady's performance tonight was really good. In the first three quarters, he only played 13 minutes and scored 4 points, but in the last quarter, he has already scored 14 points, and the shooting rate is an astonishing 68%, and the overall shooting rate is as high as 56%. Only behind Dayao, Bynum's two inside lines and Ji Feng's outside line, and compared to the 38.8% shooting percentage per game this season, McGrady will definitely dream of returning to the top tonight.

This performance also allowed McGrady to take on the heavy responsibility of the Rockets' offense at the last moment of the game. This offense is very important. 2 points and 4 points are completely different concepts, and the psychological pressure felt is also different.

The Rockets are very fond of this attack. Adelman specially called a timeout to arrange this attacking tactics, and the Lakers Zen Master also constantly emphasized the importance of defense, and also arranged a variety of coping tactics according to the situation.

Rockets sideline serve!

Dayao came to send, and McGrady received the ball after the pick-and-roll.

"Press tight!" The Zen master on the sideline shouted to his players, trying every means to speed up the Rockets' offensive rhythm, time was not on their side.

However, the Rockets dealt with it properly and went online with a double pick-and-roll. McGrady broke into the inside line directly from behind Dayao, a wonderful throw, and at the same time he scored his 20th point, he also expanded the point difference to 4 points again.

And this attack took a full 20 seconds, the Lakers must speed up!

This task was naturally handed over to Ji Feng. Kobe received the ball to attract defensive points. Ji Feng took the ball and quickly rushed to the frontcourt. Everyone in the Rockets saw Ji Feng's intention. Artest chased back frantically. Ji Feng dribbled the ball left and right with his right hand. Resist Artest, then avoid Landry's block in the air and complete the layup!

However, Artest still interfered with Ji Feng's shot, and the basketball shot out of the frame. Fortunately, Ji Feng's second takeoff ability was better, and he grabbed the front board again and played the board again and finally scored a goal!

"Huh!~" Many Lakers fans breathed a sigh of relief. They almost jumped out of their hearts just after seeing that the ball didn't make it. If it didn't make it to the Lakers, it would be cold.

"SHIT!" Artest slammed the sponge mat hard, and scolded the United States in his mouth, but it didn't help, and he was warned by the referee.

Ji Feng shrugged innocently, there is no way, my buddy is so lucky, in fact, I panicked, the ball just now really brought luck.

But it may be that luck ran out of this ball. After that, Kobe and Gasol’s two shots were all made of iron. The Lakers fans held their foreheads and failed to score twice in a row at the last minute. my lake.

And the mood of the Rockets fans is not much different. The 2-point difference is shaky at first sight. The Lakers are relieved that they can't make the shot, but looking back, the Rockets can't make the shot. Artest strikes a strong three-pointer. Dayao got the rebound and failed to score in the crowd. Then McGrady's layup was interfered by Gasol's fingertip.

With 25 seconds remaining, the difference was still two points, and the two teams did not score a single point.

And the Lakers have the offensive power, and the Zen master called the last long timeout of the game!

"Offensive, we want a two-pointer! Ji Feng flanks to contain, Bynum is on the inside, Kobe comes out to pick and roll to catch the ball, Gasol sends the ball to help block, Kobe makes the final choice, remember, try to consume as much time as possible!" Zen Master chose a conservative two-point play into overtime.

This tactic is very reasonable at this time. After all, there are still 25 seconds left. The Lakers will inevitably leave time for the opponent to attack, and if they can't make a three-point shot in a hurry, they will be too passive.

However, when the sideline ball is sent, the sudden change occurs!

"Kobe wants to catch the ball, oh!!! No! Kobe slipped, it's almost five seconds, hurry up and serve!" Yu Jia's voice suddenly rose and his face was full of surprise.

In the picture, Kobe first slipped the bottom line and went through two pick-and-rolls and then went around to catch the ball. This was a perfect choice and timing, but when he cut out the outside line, Kobe slipped and lost his balance!

Although he stood up with all his strength, the defenders had already arrived, and Kobe couldn't catch the ball!

This time, all the Lakers generals were blinded. Gasol held the ball to see that he would violate the serve for 5 seconds. At this time, Ji Feng in the bottom corner of the opposite side opened his arms and jumped his feet and roared: "Here! Paul!"

"There's no way!" Gasol's heart skipped a beat, he couldn't miss the ball, and he passed it directly to Ji Feng.

Fortunately, Artest went to help defend Kobe, and Ji Feng got the ball steadily, but Ji Feng's position was not good. Ji Feng's task was to contain him, so his position was near the three-point line in the bottom corner. Terrible catch position, easy to miss or double-team because of the limited space.

And when he landed, Artest really turned around and prepared to flank him with Maddie!

"do not care!"

Seeing that the ball was about to be double-teamed, Ji Feng didn't care, he directly caught the ball and landed a three-point shot!

This is a crazy choice, because there are still 23 seconds left, the Lakers are passive if the goal is scored, but Ji Feng has no choice!

Make a three-pointer before Artest is in place!

Everyone is looking straight at the ball.

"Go in!" Ji Feng raised his arms and roared, while the basketball was hollowed out!

"Three points! Three points scored! Ji Feng made a shot! The Lakers have overtaken!" Yu Jia roared, this final reversal made him completely unprepared, so the impact was very big.

Look at the timer, there are 20 seconds left, the Lakers scored a three-pointer in 5 seconds, and overtook the score by 1 point at the end!

"YES!" Kobe rushed over and hugged Ji Feng fiercely. This ball saved the entire team and him!

However, the Lakers did not celebrate too much. The Rockets called the last timeout. They still have 20 seconds in their hands. It is hard to say who will win. There are too many stories in the NBA in 20 seconds.

Ji Feng, who returned to the bench, also received crazy greetings. The Zen master patted Ji Feng on the shoulder.

The Lakers laid out defensive tactics, and naturally focused on McGrady in the last attack. Dayao has made a lore shot in his career so far, and he was also countered by Roy. .

Rockets sideline serve!

McGrady catches the ball!

The Rockets arranged time-consuming tactics, Kobe man-marked, McGrady started to attack after 10 seconds of dribbling the ball, Scola went on the pick-and-roll, but his pick-and-roll ability was very weak, and Kobe kept up directly without leaving a space.

McGrady dribbled the ball behind his back and made a reverse breakthrough, and went to the basket to prepare to shoot, but at this time the flank Ji Feng reached and Kobe closed the door!

Tracy McGrady forcibly shot the basketball out of the frame!
