Chapter 718
The lagging team wants to chase points. While improving the defensive strength, it must also increase the number and success rate of its own offensive rounds.

Mu Chenfeng alerted the entire Lakers team with a three-pointer. The game is not over yet, and the championship does not belong to the Lakers.

The Lakers lacking James are more likely to be targeted on the offensive end. Only Oscar and Felix are relatively stable offensive points.

Mu Chenfeng's three-pointer showed a strong desire to chase points. Felix instinctively wanted to respond, but under Wade's defense, it was difficult for him to get a good shot space, so he could only hand the ball to Oscar.

Compared with the disparity in strength between Wade and Felix, the gap between Oscar and Mu Chenfeng is not so obvious. The statistics are evenly matched, and the matchup between the two is back and forth in the game.

"Finally, we met at the summit." Oscar said with relief, this kind of matchup was what he wanted to see the most.

"But only one person can climb the peak." Mu Chenfeng was not as enthusiastic as Oscar, and even said a little coldly. He only cared about chasing points, so let's save the pleasantries for after the game.

Oscar can see from Mu Chenfeng's defensive posture how much he is focused on the game. Since he can't communicate, let the game speak.

Oscar is very familiar with Mu Chenfeng's game habits. This is not only because the two have been teammates, but also because he has studied Mu Chenfeng's game videos in private. Once upon a time, the former little brother has grown into a goal that he needs to catch up with and surpass.

Oscar had an extremely strong desire in his heart, he wanted to score a goal on Mu Chenfeng's head.

Although he has scored 14 points and scored 6 goals in the game, none of them were scored by himself in one-on-one with Mu Chenfeng, all relying on the pick-and-roll and cooperation of his teammates.

Therefore, Oscar is very eager to complete the attack in a one-on-one way, and for him, his confidence will also be improved.

Oscar made a "pull away" gesture to his teammates, and the teammates pulled the defenders away, leaving enough space for the two to "single out".

I saw that Oscar lowered his center of gravity and probed left and right with his right foot. Mu Chenfeng's defensive attention was concentrated enough, and he had already penetrated this level of temptation without being overwhelmed.

Seeing that his tentative steps could not escape from Mu Chenfeng's to any advantage, Oscar had no choice but to break through forcefully. Fortunately, his body is much stronger than Mu Chenfeng's, and his strength is also stronger, so he has certain advantages in confrontation.

Oscar resisted Mu Chenfeng's defense with his body, and after getting rid of it, he rushed towards the basket. Mu Chenfeng didn't give up, as long as the basketball hadn't been sent into the basket, there was a possibility of blocking it.

Because of his backward position, Mu Chenfeng took off before Oscar, but this was a very risky defensive behavior. If it was spotted, it only needed a simple emergency stop fake action to easily decipher it.

However, at this time, Oscar only had the basket in his mind, and he was completely unaware of the murderous aura coming from Mu Chenfeng behind him.

He still took off. At this time, Mu Chenfeng had already set up a defense that covered the sky and the sun. Oscar did not escape Mu Chenfeng's "claw", and the basketball was fanned out of bounds.

Oscar looked helplessly at the flying basketball and let out a sigh.

"Beautiful!" Mu Chenfeng's block boosted morale, and it could be seen from the Heat's bench. Even Barrett, who had collapsed, stood up and applauded.

The Lakers bench formed a completely different contrast. Everyone looked frustrated, and even James bit his nails, which was a sign of stress relief.

The beginning of the last quarter was completely turned into a personal show by Mu Chenfeng.

The Heat completed the defense and urged the counterattack. Oscar stuck to Mu Chenfeng. After halftime, Mu Chenfeng did not give the opponent a chance to breathe. He dribbled towards the 45° three-point line on the right.

Mu Chenfeng stopped abruptly and took a step back. Oscar also followed him completely. The former seemed to be unable to see the defense. With his toes on the three-point line, he raised his hand and shot quickly. The basketball just passed the defense before Oscar's block was in place. Oscar was one step late.

Oscar only heard an incomparably crisp and pleasant rubbing sound from the back of his head, and the point difference was narrowed again.

Off the court, James grabbed his shorts with his hands, and his state was not enough to support him to participate in the game.

On the contrary, Mu Chenfeng's excellent performance seemed to speed up Barrett's recovery speed, and he was in a much more energetic state. He even played a high-five with Mu Chenfeng on the sidelines.

The Lakers fell into a very passive situation.

Fortunately, Oscar and Felix, the twin stars from UCLA, worked together to score the first point of this quarter against the Heat.

However, Mu Chenfeng didn't intend to make the Lakers feel good. The second cooperation between the two was ruthlessly dismantled by Mu Chenfeng. Mu Chenfeng shot out from the two of them like a yellow lightning bolt. He won the love, completed the steal, and then pushed to counterattack. Facing the empty and unguarded half court, Mu Chenfeng didn't hit the basket, but stopped at the top of the three-pointer.

"What is he going to do? Is he going to shoot a three-pointer?" The audience was puzzled. This can be said to be an opportunity to score points. Mu Chenfeng can definitely get into the penalty area and score two points safely, but he has to choose the riskier three-pointer.

"It's true! It's kind!"

Mu Chenfeng lifted the basketball slowly with a top arc, the movement was very standard, and then shot the ball with a textbook-like shooting posture.

Ka Ka Ka! ! !
The shutter buttons sounded in unison, this is a rare scene, an empty half court, an official game, a player is shooting a three-pointer, the movement is extremely beautiful.

From the photos alone, I thought it was a normal training, but this is indeed an official competition.

Even if it didn't score, it was still a very meaningful photo, not to mention the result was so perfect, Mu Chenfeng narrowed the point difference to 10 points with this "unreasonable" three-pointer.

3 minutes ago, the point difference was still 21 points!
After scoring the goal, Mu Chenfeng stared at the basket for a long time, "I will continue to score!"

beep! ! !
"The Heat request a substitution!" The on-site reporter reported.

Substitution?Everyone focused their attention on the Heat's bench, thinking that at such an important point-chasing moment, any substitution and adjustment may disrupt the existing good rhythm of the game.

Barrett, it is Barrett who is going to play, the man who was exhausted defending James.

"Barrett?" James looked at him in surprise. That guy recovered so quickly. James' legs were still heavy. Barrett's consumption was only a lot more than his own, and that guy recovered faster than himself.

"Do you want to rest for a while?" Wade asked with concern.

"Watching that kid's game, I don't even have the time to sit and watch." Barrett looked at Mu Chenfeng appreciatively, "I'll leave the offensive end to you and Mu Chenfeng. I'm going to put what little energy I have left on defense."

Barrett's physical strength has only recovered about 2%, which is not enough to support the rest of the game, but Mu Chenfeng's performance made him extremely eager to fight side by side with his teammates to win the championship, so he had to make his own choice, give up offense and focus on defense.

The Heat took the lead in welcoming back their main force, the Big Three reunited, and the Lakers were still waiting for their core to return.
