Chapter 243 Explosion?Or perish?superior

Chapter 29 is an outbreak?Or perish?

Jack finally withstood the pressure at the last moment of the second quarter.At the last moment of the first half, the three-pointer was successful!

At the end of halftime, the Hornets helped the Hornets to close the lead to only the last 7 points left.

At the beginning of the third quarter, the situation on the field has undergone earth-shaking changes.The Miami Heat once opened the score to 12 points.At the crucial moment Jack stepped forward and brought the score back.

Since then, relying on Jack's tenacity, he bombarded the inside of the Hornets again and again, winning fouls and standing at the free throw line.Stabilized the score.In the end, after the third quarter, the score difference between the two sides was still 7 points.

67 to 60, the Miami Heat lead by 7 points!With the final quarter of the game remaining, the Hornets trailed by 7 points at home.The final result of the game is still very telling!
Overall, the Hornets performed very poorly in this game.The Hornets only relied on Jack to support the entire third quarter.The Hornets had 69 shots in the entire third quarter, but they only made 27 shots, and they made less than 40% of them.If it weren't for Jack's hard support, the Hornets' hits might be less than 30%.

Throughout the third quarter, Jack made 10 out of 7 shots, making 10 percent of his shots.However, looking at the entire quarter of the Hornets' game, only 3 goals were hit in [-] shots. Jack thought about it and finally decided to go it alone.

On the other hand, the defending champion Miami Heat made 50% of their shots. Although they only had 60 shots, they made 31 of them.Today the Heat feel hot and hot.

Before the start of the fourth quarter, Hornets coach Byron Scott also said at the end of the interview with reporters on the spot: "We have done everything we should do, defense, rebounding, we have all done it. Very good. But, just can't put that damn basketball in the hoop..."

Jack saw himself struggling in the third quarter, but still couldn't close the score by even a point.Jack's heart was also cold, and in the end he decided to rely on his teammates and activate them.

However, his players are also very disappointing!At the beginning of the fourth quarter, the first three points in the fourth quarter.The Hornets' shots all missed without exception, and the Hornets fell into a terrible scoring drought.

It is also for this reason that the Miami Heat can unscrupulously start double-teaming Jack.As soon as the defensive pressure came up, Jack hadn't adjusted yet, and the two shots at the beginning of the fourth quarter all missed without exception.

The Miami Heat seized this opportunity and scored points crazily. Taking advantage of the Hornets' downturn, Miami played a wave of 8-0 spurts and directly opened the score by 18 points.

At this time, there were still 8 minutes and 12 seconds left in the game. At this time, Byron Scott quickly requested a timeout.If this continues, isn't the Hornets over?

However, this time the Hornets' adjustment did not bring much change to their offense. The Hornets continued their blacksmithing game, and the sound of "boom... boom..." resounded over the entire Hornets arena. !
However, after returning from the timeout, the Hornets' defense is still very good.At the very least, they didn't give the Miami Heat a chance to score while their offense didn't score!
Therefore, when there were 5 minutes and 56 seconds left in the fourth quarter, the difference between the two sides remained at 13 points.

Watching the time of the game pass by every minute and every second, Byron Scott is so anxious psychologically!He finally couldn't sit still anymore, he shouted loudly at the Hornets players on the sidelines.

However, his screaming like screaming didn't wake him up. The Hornets players were forced to "beep..." The whistle sounded, and Byron called for the second timeout of the game.

Watching the Hornets' fourth quarter was heart-wrenching!The fans of the Hornets at the scene fell into silence. The scene was quiet, as calm as a horizontal lake... Seeing that the opponent led by so many points, and it was still the fourth quarter.Seeing that the 15-game winning streak is about to slip away from under their noses, can they be happy?
Some spectators saw that the Hornets players were so poor in this game, and some of them even shouted: "Give the ball to Jack!"

As soon as this slogan came out, many Hornets fans began to respond one after another.

The players of the Hornets already looked exhausted. They returned to the bench after a timeout, and they jumped on the bench. Tired!Everyone's body seems to be emptied?After the first half of the fourth quarter, they were beaten without fighting spirit.

The more the Hornets players showed this expression, the angrier Byron became. He stared at the Hornets players and yelled: "shit, your performance is like shit, you went whoring last night! You know you Like what? A soft-ass soft-ass."

Byron's swearing tactics didn't seem to be very effective at this time, and the Hornets players still couldn't lift their spirits at all.The nerves that had been tensed for so long suddenly relaxed, and Byron could not recover with a few curses.

Since the start of the new season, the Hornets have been winning until now. The players of the Hornets will inevitably have a slack mentality.It's not that the players of the Hornets don't want to win, and the players of the Hornets have also worked hard, but what can't be helped is that today, it seems that the heavens are against the Hornets. No matter how they shoot, they don't score!I want to win, but no matter what, the ball can't be thrown into the basket, there is no way!
"Beep..." The timeout is over, and the game continues!

However, the problem of the Hornets has not been resolved, and the Hornets are in a very dangerous situation.

Hornets offense!Paul organized the offense in the half court, and Paul gave the ball to Russell Butler from the top of the arc with a three-pointer. However, Paul's pass was shot out of the sky by Anthony Walker with lightning speed , intercepted the ball, and rushed towards the empty half court.

"Shit!" Jack couldn't help but cursed when he saw Paul making such a low-level mistake.Afterwards, with all his strength, he chased after Anthony Walker who had already sprinted towards the half court with lightning speed.It's no wonder that Jack is so angry. When the Hornets are in poverty, Paul should not have made such a mistake!

After Anthony Walker stole the ball, he also mustered all his strength and rushed forward.Anthony Walker is a person with a very strong desire to perform. When he reached the three-pointer, he glanced back from the corner of his eye, but he didn't see Jack who was chasing after him. When he reached the three-pointer, he subconsciously let go. Slowing down, he was thinking about how to end this fast break.

Is it a one-handed dunk under the basket?Or a dunk with both hands?Or maybe it’s the dunk of the big windmill at the basket... Anthony Walker has a series of dunks in his mind, and he has no idea that the danger is flying towards him...

When stepping on the three-point circle, Anthony Walker suddenly played the ball, bent his knees, stared, and started, the muscles of the calf condensed into a rope, and the power burst out from the calf...

Anthony Walker jumped high from the ground, and at the same time, he completely stretched his body in the air.In the end, he chose a dunk with both hands!

There is only one thought in Jack's mind: no matter what, this ball must be dropped, and it must be stopped, no matter what the cost of the call!Seeing the figure getting closer and closer in front of him, Jack couldn't help showing a smile, and shouted, "Don't even think about it!" Like a tiger pouncing on an antelope, he flew towards the antelope that was close at hand...
