Chapter 617 Helpless
Alice and Annie King sat in the living room of Xu Tian's house in Walnut City, nervously watching the TV screen, wondering who would win the final victory.

After returning from the timeout, James broke through against Josh Smith's defense and got a foul.Two free throws were made to tie the score!
94-94, 3 minutes and 11 seconds!
Kobe sent the ball to Xu Tian and started running without the ball.He knew it was time to let the strongest player on the team handle the ball, give the ball away, and help open the space.

Shumpert was extremely nervous, and kept waving his hands in front of him, trying to defend with a blind cat hitting a mouse.He really couldn't figure out how Xu Tian would attack, so he could only defend like this.

Single defense is like open space, dry pull jump shot!

Shumpert tried his best to take off and raised his right hand high, but he still didn't touch Xu Tian's basketball.

Bullet box, hit!
96-94, 2 minutes and 57 seconds!
Alice couldn't help cheering.Although Xu Tian on the TV couldn't hear her, she still wanted to express her support as best she could.

Tai Lue stood on the sidelines and asked the players to double-team Xu Tian in the next round.

Tristan Thompson came to the top of the arc on offense and helped James block the defender so that the latter could initiate a breakthrough.

James broke through from the right, found a route that could pass, accelerated suddenly, and hit the penalty area in a straight line.

Land tanks, unstoppable!
Slam Dunk!

96-96, 2 minutes and 41 seconds!
James took the overlord step, just about to celebrate, but found that he was at the Lakers' home court at the moment, turned around angrily, and quickly began to retreat.

Kobe ran to the frontcourt, opened Irving's defense, and observed how Xu Tian broke the Cavaliers' double-team.

The dribble from back to front reappeared, Xu Tianren made a breakthrough between cracks, the paint area attracted five Cavaliers to defend, and before the encirclement was formed, he made a chic throw.

Basketball, hollow into the net!
98-96, 2 minutes and 28 seconds!
Tai Lunlu always felt that Xu Tian wasn't threatening enough recently. Seeing this attack, he immediately dismissed his previous thoughts.He was sure of one thing, when the game came to a critical moment, Xu Tian was the most threatening player.

James launched a breakthrough in the frontcourt, elbowed the defensive player slightly, and hit the basket in a straight line.

Tyson Chandler and George jumped left and right, interfering with James' shot, and then the three of them jumped under the basket, fighting for the basketball that bounced out of the frame.

James has a certain physical advantage, squeezed away Tyson Chandler, picked up an offensive rebound, and made a tip-in with his left hand!
The basketball hits the backboard and bounces into the net!

98-98, 1 minutes and 59 seconds!
Scott has enough confidence, standing on the sidelines with his arms crossed, watching the team's offense and defense steadily.

The Cavaliers resorted to double-teaming, trying to get Xu Tian to pass the ball, and then tried to limit it.It's just that such a tactical intention was unsuccessful. Xu Tian made a strong breakthrough and once again involved all the Cavaliers players by his side.

Seeing Xu Tian's concealed gesture, Kobe went down without the ball, and took off with both legs. Seeing the basketball flying in the air, he clicked down to complete the alley-oop.He no longer bounces high enough to dunk.

100-98, 1 minutes and 44 seconds!
James wiped his hands on his chest one after another, dried the sweat on his palms, dribbled the ball to the frontcourt, observed the Lakers' defense, and looked for the best way to attack.

Josh Smith lowered his center of gravity as much as possible, moved slowly laterally, and was always in front of James to avoid being directly broken through.He is the most important defensive player and has to perform as well as possible.

James dribbles with his right hand, looks for an offensive rhythm, sees that the clock is almost on, and forces a breakthrough against Josh Smith.He has the top strength among the outside players in the league, and he will not be afraid of any player's single defense, but this kind of offense is really exhausting.

Now is the critical moment, and he has no room for strength.

The epee has no sharp edge, and it doesn't work!
100-100, 1 minutes and 29 seconds!
Kobe dribbled the ball to the frontcourt, trying to find Xu Tian, ​​but found that he was double-teamed by the Cavaliers and had no room to catch the ball at all.

Tristan Thompson goes after George, trying to keep up and avoid getting out.

In a flash of inspiration, Josh Smith folded his hands in front of him and screened Tristan Thompson to create a wide open for George.

Bryant's pass to keep up, seize this opportunity.

George's shooting fakes point to Love, who is coming to defend, and pushes away from his body against his body. He lays up easily and hits the board!

102-100, 1 minutes and 15 seconds!
Tyronn Lue didn't like the defense of this round a little bit, but the three-person double-teamed Xu Tian was his tactic, and he had no choice but to bear it.

O'Neal said: "Xu's containment is too strong. If I were the head coach of the Cavaliers, I would let Kevin Love participate in the double-team defense. Because of his movement speed and athletic ability, guarding the penalty area will be very difficult."

Barkley said: "I agree with Shaquille's point of view. Kevin Love's interior defense is good, but the defense is poor. If you continue to defend like this, the Lakers will eventually pass the ball to the penalty area, so LeBron needs to be topped. Take this position."

Kenny Smith said: "Kevin Love participated in a three-man double-team, Xu has a great chance to break the defense. In short, it is two cups of poison, and the Cavaliers can only choose to drink one."

Tyronn Lue is feeling this way.

Xu Tian's jersey is one size bigger, and the shorts can reach the knees. The jersey is not completely close to the body, giving people a sense of elegance.When retreating, the front of the jersey was stuck to his chest, perfectly showing his explosive figure.

NBA players are all muscle maniacs, but there are not many who can achieve a body fat rate of only 3.5% like Xu Tian.Xu Tian's strength is also at the top level.

James faced off against Xu Tian at the top of the arc, and his bodies collided frequently, leaving no room for a direct breakthrough.

Xu Tian's defensive ability surpassed James' imagination, and he almost made a mistake when dribbling the ball behind his back, and quickly passed it to Irving on the right.

Facing George's defense, Irving changed direction continuously in front of his body, did not shake the space, and chose to pull away slightly and forcefully shot.

At the last moment of the game, the defensive tactics of both sides have been known. At this time, the superstars are fighting.Although Irving is not a player of this level, his ability to play hard is not weak.

Hit the board for a three-pointer and make a magical hit!
102-103, 56.7 seconds!
There are no fans at the Staples Center who will cheer for the Cavaliers players, so that Irving's magical goal has no foil at all and cannot affect the morale of the team.This is the disadvantage of playing away games, and not every player can handle it.

Shumpert didn't follow Xu Tian and was served by him, so he could only run to the backcourt step by step.

Kobe stood in the bottom corner on the right, looking at Xu Tian who was confidently making technical moves, he felt infinitely moved.

Shumpert, James, and Irving flanked the defense, but Xu Tianhou stepped back and opened his position.

The three of them jumped one after another, and they all became the backdrop for the goal two seconds later.

105-103, 46.2 seconds!
It was also a sky-defying three-pointer. Owen's goal did not make any waves, but Xu Tian's goal blew up the stadium.

The Staples Center seemed to have set off a huge wave, and the tsunami of sound shook the soul, making the players on the field unconsciously become excited.
