NBA: The start beat Kobe Bryant in his old age

Chapter 238 An era of the Spurs has come to an end

On the Lakers side, Scott arranged a three-pointer tactic for Lin Tian.

Because the shortest player on the Spurs side is Tony Parker, Scott decided to let Nick Young play the pick-and-roll for Lin Tian.

When the players returned to the court, the Lakers served from the sideline, and Nick Young was in charge of serving.

beep!
With the whistle of the referee, Lin Tian quickly ran away from Leonard temporarily.

Nick Young found an opportunity to serve and decisively served the ball to Lin Tian.

Leonard opened his big hands and greeted Lin Tian.

Lin Tian looked up at the timer while waiting for his teammates to cover him.

All of a sudden, Nick Young comes running toward him and pulls off a standard pick-and-roll while still a few steps away.

Lin Tian rushed over.

This is a perfect pick and roll!
Through Nick Young's pick-and-roll, Lin Tian got rid of Leonard cleanly.

Leonard has no time to defend Lin Tian, ​​Tony Parker can only bite the bullet and try to steal Lin Tian.

Naturally, his steal didn't work.

Lin Tian, ​​who was standing outside the three-point line, looked directly at the direction of the basket, joined the ball, took off, and shot!The action is done in one go!
This sudden three-point shot also attracted everyone's attention!

Swish!
After the basketball flew in the air for a certain distance, it fell steadily into the basket!

100:100!The score was forcibly equalized by Lin Tian!

And there are still 40 seconds left in the audience.

This time he hit a three-pointer, and Lin Tian waved his fist fiercely.

Before he had time to celebrate with his teammates, he quickly returned to defense.

Tony Parker came over the dribble and wanted to play a fast break, but the Lakers didn't give them this opportunity.

When Kobe was defending Danny Green, he kept yelling: "Follow me! Don't miss anyone!"

Such words did have an effect, and it was rare for Nick Young to entangle Tony Parker like brown sugar.

Tony Parker himself was really hard to make a shot, so he started looking for Leonard.

But Lin Tian knew Tony Parker's thoughts, and blocked Leonard early, blocking the opponent's passing route.

At the critical moment, he still came to defend the opponent's star.

No chance to pass to the perimeter, Tony Parker can only pass the ball to Aldridge on the weak side.

Aldridge took the ball, and Tucker also used his strength to defend him.

Tucker was not tall enough, so he could only force his body to fight, and kept reaching out with one hand to steal the ball.

Aldridge was almost intercepted, so he could only turn around and make a hasty shot.

Bang!

In a position he was very sure of, he missed his mid-range shot!

However, before Lin Tian could be happy, Duncan under the basket pointed the ball in against Howard.

102:100!The Lakers are 2 points behind again!
After the goal was scored, Duncan clenched his fists and roared twice. In this game, he has already scored a new high in the playoffs this season!
Many Spurs fans at the scene jumped up excitedly.

"Tim!!!"

"My God! It's still up to Tim at the critical moment!"

"It's unbelievable! Is Tim really 40 years old? Howard is not even his opponent!"

Howard, who missed a key rebound, was full of frustration.

Scott called the team's final timeout at this point.

Noticing Howard's rather annoyed expression, Lin Tian walked over and patted him on the shoulder to express his comfort.

Back on the bench, all the Lakers players looked solemn.

The Spurs have 18 seconds left to attack.

18 seconds of attack time is enough.

But if there is no goal, there is a high probability that the game will be lost, and everyone will be under a lot of pressure.

Scott still arranged three-pointers for them.

Although there was a difference of two points, the best result was a three-point game.

Without too much suspense, Scott still gave Lin Tian the opportunity to shoot a three-pointer: "Lin! If you don't have two good opportunities later, then use your three-pointer to take away the game!"

Lin Tianzheng nodded his head. Although his three-pointers are not the most accurate, he still has to make shots at critical moments!
beep!
At this time, the referee blew the whistle to end the timeout.

When the players returned to the field, they were still dripping with sweat.

After Nick Young passed the ball to Lin Tian, ​​the timer started counting down.

Leonard used all his energy to defend Lin Tian!He stared at Lin Tian intently, like a hungry lion staring at a prey.

The other players of the Spurs are also desperately getting stuck with the Lakers players.

The contest between insiders is particularly fierce.

It seems that because he just suffered a loss in Duncan's hands, Howard has already gone all out this time!
He and Duncan got stuck, just to be able to rebound better.

The whole arena seemed to be agitated.

Lin Tian, ​​who was standing at the top of the arc with the ball, felt calm at this moment. He even had time to raise his arm to wipe the sweat off his face.

Leonard didn't dare to take the risk of coming over to take out the ball, so he was in a stalemate with Lin Tian.

15 seconds!
14 seconds!
13 second……

Time passed by second by second, and the noise made by the fans became louder and louder.

In a daze, Lin Tian seemed to hear a wild whistle, but it didn't bother him.

The remaining offensive time is getting less and less, and the players on the court are getting more and more nervous!

At this time, there are 6 seconds left in the time!

Howard, who finally got his position in the paint, suddenly pointed to the backboard.

Out of trust in Howard, Lin Tian did not hesitate!Suddenly closing the ball and raising your hand is a dry pull!
The speed of his shot was too fast, and by the time Leonard reacted, the ball had already been thrown!
It's just that the moment the ball was thrown, Lin Tian already secretly exclaimed that something is wrong!Crooked!
Bang!

as expected!This ball hits the iron!
Oh! !

Witnessing Lin Tian striking the iron, the entire arena erupted in applause!In their view, the game is over!

However, Howard at the basket successfully grabbed the rebound!

Howard, who struggled to grab the rebound, wanted to tie the score with two points, but Duncan and Aldridge didn't give him a chance to shoot at all.

The four hands of the two people were raised high, forming an indestructible line of defense above Howard's head.

Even Leonard rushed over.

In the blink of an eye, Howard decisively passed the ball to Lin Tian again.

Lin Tian, ​​who got the ball again, noticed that there was one second left in the time, and he threw the ball almost subconsciously.

This time, as soon as he made a shot, a smile appeared on his face!Because the angle is right!

hum...

The basketball was still flying in the air, and the buzzer sounded!
More than 2 pairs of eyes looked at the basketball that decided the outcome at the same time.

Under the witness of so many people, the basketball fell into the basket impartially!
Three points scored!

this moment!The auditorium is silent!Only the excited cheers of the players broke out from the Lakers bench.

The score was fixed at 103:102, and the Lakers won the game by one point!Defeated the Spurs with a big score of 4:1 and joined the Warriors in the Western Conference Finals!

Before Lin Tian could breathe a sigh of relief, Kobe, Nick Young and Howard rushed over and threw him to the ground!
The Lakers' bench players also rushed onto the court.

The media reporters, on the other hand, turned their cameras on the Lakers players, wanting to record this precious moment.

The players on the Spurs side are like eggplants beaten by frost.

Leonard walked silently to the bench.

Tony Parker and Ginobili just gave each other high fives to comfort each other.

As the team soul of the Spurs, Tim Duncan seems to have not recovered.

He looked up at the big screen in a daze, without much expression on his face.

Popovich took the initiative to walk into the arena, hugged Duncan for a long time, and at the same time reached out and touched Duncan's head: "Tim! You have done a great job!"

After the Lakers celebrated for a while, led by Kobe, they came to the Spurs bench and hugged their opponents one by one.

"Tim! Can I swap jerseys with you?"

When Lin Tian and Duncan hugged, they asked.

"of course."

Duncan smiled and took off his No. 21 black and white jersey and exchanged it with Lin Tian's No. 23 purple and gold jersey.

The two took each other's jerseys and faced the camera for a photo.

After taking the photo, Duncan took Lin Tian's jersey and walked towards the player tunnel. With his back to the court, he pointed to the sky above the arena with one finger as he walked.

Maybe others don't know, but Lin Tian knows very well that an era for the Spurs has come to an end.
