Chapter 163 The Key Counterattack Steal

Chapter 163 The Key Counterattack Steal

The fourth quarter of the game.

The Hornets' defense once again turned on the desperate mode, running tirelessly and blocking every open space. Even if the opponent could make a shot, most of the rebounds missed by Li Shengli were accepted by Li Shengli.

As for the offense, it is all tilted to Li Shengli, who leads the team, and Curry, who is on the outside.

The primary offensive point is Li Shengli. He can often be seen wearing Rockets defenders, bombing the basket, and walking to the free throw line several times. If the passing route is cut off, Curry will shoot from the outside. Cast decisively, and if the chance is not good, it will be handed over to the three of Boggs to wait for an opportunity to make a shot or pass in again.

……

Four minutes into the fourth quarter, the point difference changed from 4 points to 16 points.

Rockets head coach Rudy looked a little bad, and found a chance to put Thorpe on the court, but the ace Olajuwon in his hand did not move, not because Rudy didn't want to move, but because Olajuwon had already After playing three quarters, if he wants to play the full 8 minutes left in the fourth quarter, then his playing time will exceed the standard.

It's just a regular season, and Rudy feels that there is no need to bear some unexpected risks caused by time exceeding the standard, and there is still a 10-point difference. With Thorpe as a defensive player on the court, the situation will definitely be eased and the situation will be supported. In a few minutes, let all the main players appear on the stage, and the Hornets basically have nothing to play.

"Curry, shoot as soon as you get the ball. I have a rebound here. Don't worry about missing it. Boggs, you give me the ball. We must play faster." Li Shengli took advantage of the offense to press the forward court During the time, I said a few words to Curry and Boggs.

If the main force of the Rockets is on the field, their offensive will be contained to a certain extent, and it is far less easy than it is now. It's a real contest.

It has to be said that Rudy miscalculated a bit. The combination of the defensive general Thorpe and the backup center failed to suppress Li Shengli. After the ups and downs, the point difference was hit to 2 points.

Can't wait.

Rudy called a timeout for substitutions, made some arrangements, put all the main players on top, and prepared to end the Hornets at the last minute.

……

Taking advantage of the timeout, Li Shengli looked up at the scoreboard. The most critical half of the game has arrived. Although his current statistics are astonishing 32 points, 12 rebounds, 4 assists, and 2 blocks, this is a desperate effort. Yes, but what is unavoidable is... his physical energy consumption is very high, greater than any previous game, and he has already committed 4 fouls.

In the last half quarter, 6 points behind!

The Hornets have a high probability of losing, but Li Shengli wants to win more than ever, and Alan's side is the same, put Larry Johnson on the field again, replace Tony Bennett, who made 5 fouls and almost ran out, and the starting lineup is complete. get together.

Pause back to the field.

Facing the main lineup of the Rockets, the situation of the Hornets became difficult as expected. The defense can be desperate. The several offenses all relied on Li Shengli and Johnson's shots from the inside.

Playing until the last 2 minutes, the point difference remained fixed at 6 points, the Rockets especially had enough strength, but the Hornets were exhausted, Boggs fouled and left the field, Newman was exhausted and breathless , only Curry is holding on, but the offense is not developing, so he can only help the team on the defensive end.

……

The Hornets attacked, and Johnson had plenty of physical energy. He singled Thorpe and turned over to make a jumper.

Offensive rebound?

This will be an opportunity for a second attack!

Li Shengli gritted his teeth and didn't want to give up. He tightened his body and squeezed Thorpe away, and took off with all his strength to confront Olajuwon in the air.

Although the timing of the jump was a step late, he still hit the ball first with his height and arm length. It was impossible to grab the board. After he picked it up, he took the second jump to get the ball, turned around and sent the ball into the basket with a small hook , and after completing all these actions, he could clearly feel the soreness of his muscles.

Offensive and defensive easy side.

The Rockets' Olajuwon wanted the ball, and Li Shengli really couldn't defend against it. The defensive problem under his prime physical fitness is not a big problem, but now... the reaction is half a beat slow, and he can't stand the opponent's fake moves. After being pointed out, Olajuwon scored an easy layup.

……

At this time, more than a dozen pairs of eyes are staring at this game. They come from the management of various teams in the league, and they are all teams interested in participating in the Hornets trade. As for Salt Lake City... the eyes of Jerry Sloan Braving all his energy, he slammed the table next to him hard, which shocked the Jazz boss Larry Miller.

"Larry, do you still mean what you say?"

"Of course!" Larry Miller stared at the screen in surprise, "I have to admit that the little guy Li has good abilities, but his current stats are still a little short of our bet. 1 minute left."

"You should have said... 1 more minute!"

"Is there a difference?"

"Of course there is, just watch, I'm going to order him!"

Larry Miller closed his eyes and stopped paying attention to this game. It seemed that the ending was set, because Li Shengli's current statistics were 36 points and 14 rebounds, and there was only 1 minute left. Considering the physical fitness of both sides, it would be more... ... The Hornets have 2 offensive possessions left, if nothing else.

What can 2 rounds do? !

In Li Shengli's current state, not to mention the rebounds, he just scored. Larry Miller felt that he would not be able to score 4 points in the sky. Destroyed early by the rocket.

"Good luck, man!"

……

The last minute of the game.

The Hornets are 4 points behind, but the Rockets have the ball. After scoring, the point difference is still 6 points, so the Hornets want to win. The Rockets must not let the Rockets score this round, and Curry... resorted to sucking With strength, he actually completed a critical Jedi steal, which ignited the atmosphere of the audience.

"Nice, Curry, well done!" Li Shengli's eyes lit up.

"Cough... Next, it's up to you!" Curry couldn't run anymore, he defended the ball on the spot, panting and responded, there was no way to make a fast break, and the Hornets could only slowly press forward .

"Hold on, and leave the rest to me!"

"You bastard, save yourself some effort, and don't say a few words!"

It has to be said that Curry's steal is too critical. If the Hornets can make a counterattack, the point difference will be reduced to 2 points, and then they will defend the Rockets with a wave, and then counterattack with another wave. Overtime is expected.Although this is the most ideal situation, even wishful thinking, but people are not salty fish, after all, they have to have some dreams.
