Soul of the Golden State

Chapter 783 Drag into Overtime
The Suns launched a counterattack in the second quarter. Although the Warriors resisted after returning from the starting lineup, they still allowed the Suns to take the lead at halftime.

At 49:51, the Suns only led by 2 points.

Although the point difference is not big, for the Warriors, such a score does not satisfy them. After all, as an offensive team, the halftime score is less than 50 points, which shows that the rhythm of the entire game has completely fallen into the rhythm of the game. opponent's hands.

This is a very scary thing. In one's own home court, the opponent can still control the rhythm, which means that the trend of the game is completely determined by the opponent.

Therefore, after entering the second half, the Warriors strengthened the speed and intensity of their push and counterattack, trying to forcibly bring up the rhythm, trying to disrupt the rhythm of the game on the court by speeding up the rhythm of the game.

In this way, the whole game became faster and faster. Under the deliberate drive of the Warriors, the offensive rounds of the two teams suddenly increased in the second half.

It's just that despite the increasing number of rounds played, the increase in the score is very slow. The two teams are playing lively but they are not scoring.

Fortunately, the current situation of the two teams is that you score and I score, and you don’t score and I don’t score. This also makes the two teams continue to miss shots, but the point difference is always anxious.

However, at the end of the third quarter, after the Warriors' substitutes returned to the field, Cassel and Sprewell began to show off. The two scored the Warriors' last 11 points in this quarter, helping the team win 79:78. Successfully surpassed the score by 1 point, which can be said to have beaten the master to death.

Soon, the game came to the last quarter, and the two teams fell into a scoring drought almost at the same time. From the bench to the starting lineup, it felt like it had never been before, and it was difficult to score.

Barkley squeezed into the penalty area, facing the upright arms like a forest, making him unable to see the basket, so he could only turn around, avoid the defense, and chose to force a hook. Unfortunately, in this case, the hit The rate cannot be guaranteed at all, and the basketball also bounces out of the basket.

After Rodman took off the rebound, it was the Warriors' turn to fast break. During the fast break, Li Weisi made a pass to Richmond. This is a regular fast break tactic for the Warriors. However, unexpectedly, the ball Richmond actually failed to catch the ball. Although Marley had been interfering with the ball, Li Weisi calculated the amount of control of the ball very well. Unfortunately, the ball was still touched by Richmond out of the baseline.

The possession of the ball was switched again.

This time the Suns' offense still ended in failure. Persson's layup was interfered by Divac, and he actually shot a bridge. Although Green grabbed the offensive rebound, he was hit by Divac when he made a tip A big hat for Cici.

The Warriors launched a counterattack again. This time Li Weisi did not pass the ball easily, but chose to go one by one. Finally, under Hardaway's interference, he pulled the bar for a layup.

This goal is the first goal in more than two minutes. At this time, more than 8 minutes have been played in the fourth quarter, but the two teams have not scored 10 points in this quarter. It can be seen that the two teams hit low rate.

And Li Weisi's goal still failed to break the dull atmosphere, and then the two teams began to fall into a scoring drought again.

In this way, the time passed by every minute and every second, and it was less than one minute before the end of the game. The score on the court was 1:92, and the Suns led by 90 points.

The reason why the Suns can take the lead is mainly because in the previous game, when no one scored, Marley and Hardaway each made a three-pointer.

Even the Suns themselves didn't expect that they could beat the Warriors with the three-pointers that the Warriors are good at.

Of course, the Warriors have not really been defeated at this time, and a gap of 2 points is a gap of one goal. Even as long as Li Weisi hits a three-pointer, it is possible to turn defeat into victory!
It can only be said that in this game, until the last moment of the game, no one can judge who will win?

If the Suns are frightened, then the Warriors are completely anxious.

Before the game, the entire Warriors team thought that this would be a difficult game, but no one thought it would be so difficult.

The warriors who hold the last attack must seize this opportunity in order to win a chance for the victory of this game.

After observing the situation on the field, Li Weisi made a decision immediately.

Continuous dribbling and changing directions seemed to be looking for opportunities for a breakthrough, but Hardaway, who was defending him, could feel that Li Weisi was looking for a rhythm to shoot.

The Warriors are currently two points behind. The Suns are not afraid of the Warriors scoring two points. After all, they still have a chance. The most fearful thing is to let Li Weisi shoot a three-pointer, especially not to let Li Weisi, who feels good tonight, shoot.

As for Hardaway, who is relatively short in height, it is difficult to defend Li Weisi's shots when facing Li Weisi. Therefore, in this round, Hardaway almost defended against shots but not against bursts.

If so, I saw Li Weisi suddenly ready to receive the ball, and Hardaway immediately took off, regardless of whether it was true or not, let's jump first.

Sure enough, Li Weisi's shooting action was really fake. A clean and beautiful "Bai Buddha" helped Li Weisi successfully break through Hardaway's defense. At this time, there was not much time left, almost reaching the countdown stage.

After the rest of the Suns saw Li Weisi's successful breakthrough, Marley and Persson, who were defending the Warriors' perimeter, did not move, but Barkley, who was on the inside, rushed out.

This is a tactic that the Suns have discussed a long time ago, and the Warriors must not be allowed to get a three-point shot.

Different from the previous two games, in tonight's game, Barkley had a 3-minute rest. Although the time was short, it allowed Barkley to recover a bit more, so that now he was fully motivated to take a step forward and rushed towards Li Weisi.

At this time, Li Weisi has already collected the ball and is ready to shoot. In fact, if he can still do "Borrowing Buddha" at this time, he can definitely send Barkley flying, but there is not enough time for attacking, so he can only make a forced shot.

Seeing that Barkley was getting closer and closer to him, Li Weisi responded calmly, completely undisturbed, and completed the shot with his normal shooting speed.

Of course, for Li Weisi, his normal shooting speed is much faster than other people's shooting speed, at least in Barkley's eyes.

Although he tried his best to take off, he still couldn't touch the ball, so he could only let Li Weisi throw the ball.

This is also a very bug in Li Weisi's shooting ability, that is, with his excellent rhythm and shooting movements, few people have been able to block Li Weisi's shots in the league so far.

This shot full of the team's hope will naturally not disappoint everyone. The basketball shot by Li Weisi has a very beautiful trajectory and falls steadily into the basket. The score of the two teams was rewritten to a 92:92 tie.

Then, with the Suns missing the final play, the game was dragged into overtime.
