The brutality of the NBA

Chapter 333 Another lore?
Everyone at the scene completely fell silent!
The entire American Airlines Center arena can only hear the "bang bang" sound of basketball hitting the floor, which sounds like people's mood has also become tense.

Marion stuck tight this time and didn't give Xue Ding a chance to shoot.

After all, the person in front of him was the one who helped the Blazers reverse the previous game and finally completed the lore.

The victory of this game is crucial for the Mavericks.

If they win, they will be able to tie the big score, and if they lose, they will lose two home games in a row and go to the Portland Rose Garden Arena, the home of the Portland Trail Blazers, with a huge disadvantage of 2 to 0.

Time seemed to stand still.

Huge beads of sweat slid down Xue Ding's cheeks onto the floor.

Xue Ding moved!

He suddenly changed direction and accelerated directly from the right, and Marion followed closely without losing his defensive position.

At the same time, Butler also immediately came up to help defend, and double-teamed Xue Ding.

The Frenchman Batum opened up in the bottom corner.

Xue Ding gave the ball to Batum in the corner.

Batum received the ball without any hesitation, and made a steady shot from outside the three-point line. At the same time, the lights and the buzzer sounded, and the game was over.

The basketball draws a wonderful arc in the air.

"Swish" sound hollow into the net!
"OH NO!!! Nicholas hit the goddamn three pointer!!!"

Batum was not soft at this critical moment, and hit the three-pointer steadily.

Everyone rushed to Batum frantically, to the hero Batum who hit this crucial three-pointer, and he completed the fatal blow.

"Beep beep beep!!!"

The referee's whistle sounded.

The referee kept crossing his hands in front of his chest, and everyone knew what this gesture meant!
Goal invalid!

Everyone was stunned for an instant.

Roy was the first to rush to the referee to express his dissatisfaction, thinking that this was definitely a good shot, and Pritchard also came up to put pressure on the referee.

In the end, the referee decided to watch the replay of the video.

Then the big screen at the scene began to replay the last shot just now over and over again, playing it back from various angles in slow motion.

Everyone is waiting for the final result of this game.

"This series is really exciting. Who would have thought that the first two games of these two teams would go to the last moment. It's really exciting. Director Zhang, do you think the ball is shot before the time is up or after the shot? What about it?" said the commentator Yang Rui.

"It's really hard to say. I watched the video in slow motion several times just now, but I couldn't tell if the time was up. Regardless of the outcome of this game, both sides gave us a wonderful playoff game!" Director Zhang said.

"It's really difficult to judge whether the ball is timed out. The next step is to see how the referee judges. It may not take long for the result. We can also see from the big screen that the referee has already started to discuss!"

As soon as Yang Rui's voice fell, the referee announced the penalty.

After discussion by the referee team, the referee decided to maintain the original penalty.

Goal invalid!

The American Airlines Center arena was completely boiling, and everyone began to cheer and celebrate, but the Dallas Mavericks players, including the coaching staff, seemed to be very calm.

Batum shook his head helplessly, with a frustrated expression.

"It's okay, Nicholas, you did a good job, go back to Portland and beat them in the next game!"

Xue Ding immediately walked to Batum's side and hugged him, patted his shoulder and said.

Xue Ding played 37 minutes in this game and scored 27 points, 11 rebounds and 8 assists, a data close to a triple-double, but in the end the Blazers still lost by one point.

"We'll keep winning, rookie!"

Dirk Nowitzki, who scored 36 points in the game, walked to the midfield position and shouted loudly at the Blazers' bench.

"This game was really full of twists and turns. In the end, we still congratulate the Mavericks for winning a game at home. Congratulations to the Mavericks for their thrilling victory!" Yang Rui also felt sorry for the Blazers in his words.

"As a fan, this game is really enjoyable enough to watch. It's too exciting. Now the two sides have a big score of 1-1. Despite this, the Blazers fought in Dallas, so when they return to Portland, they have Home court advantage, they still have a good chance!" Although Director Zhang feels a little pity, he is still full of expectations for the young people of the Blazers.

"It is true that they will have home court advantage when they return to Portland in the next game. I believe they will play better in the next game. Let's take a look at the tactical explanation of this game."

Netizens in the Sina live broadcast room also felt very sorry for the pioneers.

"Damn, it's such a pity that this ball doesn't even count!"

"It's such a pity. If the ball could have been a little earlier, the Blazers could have taken away two victories in Dallas!"

"I feel that this game is really hard to say, the home court is the home court!"

"The Cowboys are so lucky, otherwise they would have lost two home games in a row!"

"I have to say that both sides gave us a wonderful game in this game, and I am so looking forward to the next game!"

Although the Blazers lost in the end of the game, Xue Ding still accepted an interview with reporters after the game.

"Xue, we saw that you actually played very well in this game, and almost got close to a triple-double. Then why do you think you lost this game? Is it because your teammates didn't perform well?"

Questions from reporters are always full of traps, but Xue Ding has long been used to such questions from reporters, and he can handle them freely.

"No, we think my teammates played very hard tonight. They all did what they should do. I am very honored to have such teammates. I like these lovely guys!"

"In this game, another star player of your team, Brandon, only scored 20 points. His performance seems to be unsatisfactory. Many people think that you have already replaced Brandon as the leader of the Trail Blazers. What do you think?"

It was obvious that this reporter was deliberately trying to sow discord between him and Roy.

"No, I think Brandon is a good leader. He sacrificed for the team's victory. His leadership ability on the field cannot be extracted. He is our leader. Without him leading us maybe Can't make it to today!"

After answering this question, Xue Ding finished the post-match interview and returned to the team's locker room.
