Chapter 172 Last Section

At the end of the third quarter, the Yunchen team regained a 10-point lead, 103-93. In the third quarter, they showed a devastating ability on both offense and defense.

In the third and second quarters, both James and Yunchen led the team to their own offensive climax, but relatively speaking, Yunchen's counterattack was more ferocious, because they could bring this advantage to the last quarter.

During the break during the festival, there were two completely different atmospheres on the benches of Team Yunchen and Team James, with laughter on one side and gloom on the other.

Even the head coach Cole has nothing to do at this time. The cards in his hand are not what he is good at, and his tactics are not suitable for such a situation. Everything can only be left to the players to solve.

Soon, the game continued, both sides returned to the field, and they all replaced the pure substitute lineup.

It's just a substitute lineup, but they are all star players. The two sides started to play again and again, and the score also rose alternately.

The Yunchen team still maintains a lead of about ten points, and they will not be caught up if they can't pull away.

But Yunchen knows that this balance is only temporary, and James will definitely not give up the last chance to overtake. After all, this game is too important to him, and it is a key battle for whether he can continue to occupy the No.1 in the league.

Once he loses, more and more people will question him, but if Yun Chen loses, at most he will be said to be young and ignorant to provoke his seniors, and the enthusiasm will subside after a while.

So from the beginning of this game, the efforts of both sides were not at the same level.

In the last 6 minutes of the fourth quarter, the official timeout, James finally returned to the battle, his face was expressionless, and so was Durant beside him, both of them were very cold.

In fact, relatively speaking, Durant's mentality is much better. After all, Yunchen is the only one who faces provocations directly.

Yunchen also re-assigned the starting lineup. When they played, the cheers on the scene seemed to be much louder than before. Up to now, Yunchen has scored 23 points, 5 rebounds and 7 assists. Not so bright among many stars, but his potential has already been seen.

The game continues, and James has the ball.

They still don't implement any tactics, just use singles to solve the problem. James forces Leonard to single, and passes back to Durant when encountering obstacles. Points scored.

Hit, 125-117, the point difference returned to within ten points, Durant is still as stable as ever.

However, relying on such two points and two points alone, they still couldn't fight Yun Chen and the others.

"Shua!" On this side, the Yunchen team started the unlimited pick-and-roll mode, making Curry the core of the team's offense, and everyone created opportunities for him.

"Shua!" After the two covered, he received a pass from Yun Chen and made a steady shot from outside the three-point line. There is no doubt about the strength of the league's first three-pointer.

128-117, this is destined to be a high-scoring game. After all, they are all stars, and their scoring ability is too strong. It is impossible for the score to be low.

The offensive and defensive transition, the James team attacked, James seemed to be a little anxious, and forced singles to create opportunities, but the more anxious the more accidents, he paid the price for his impulsiveness, and was slapped away by Antetokounmpo!
block!The audience exclaimed, this seems to indicate something, James finally lost his dominance in such a game, no longer the courage of the past.

Counterattacking, Yunchen catches the ball and breaks through quickly. His speed is so fast that he throws away everyone and succeeds in dunking.

After this goal was scored, the James team seemed to have suddenly lost their soul. Under the noisy voices of the audience, Durant lost his rhythm with the ball and almost made a mistake and went out of bounds.

There are more than four minutes left in the game, and James and others seem to have the intention of giving up the game.

However, is James, who is No. 1 in the league, really willing to give up his status so easily?
The answer is obviously no, Durant has no intention of playing anymore, but it doesn't mean he will relax.

He started to shoot three-pointers, this is his last chance to come back, blocking the three-point shooting percentage, if he can make two or three three-pointers, the situation will be completely different.

What shocked Yunchen was that he really made a three-pointer.

"Whoop!" James made the first three-pointer. This is not the way he is good at scoring, but now he has fully evolved in order to win.

In the next wave of offense, the Yunchen team failed to score. The James team grabbed the defensive rebound and counterattacked, and handed it to James. The latter made another three-pointer, "Shua!" hit!He relied on his own strength to chase 6 points in a row!
The point difference was instantly reduced to 5 points, which rekindled hope for Durant and others who had already given up. Even the James fans in the audience became excited. With about 4 minutes left in the game, everything is still possible. .

However, Curry stood up at this time and ended all suspense.

Just after halftime, before Owen and others came up to defend him, a super long-range three-pointer suddenly appeared. The super long arc made Yun Chen's mouth grow wide.

"Damn it... I can't..." His scalp was a little numb. If he met an opponent like Curry in the Western Conference and playoffs, he could really just give up. This kind of three-pointer method has no solution at all.

"Crack!" Hit!The audience cheered, a super long-range three-pointer shattered everyone's fantasies of Zhan Mi!The point difference returned to 8 points!
With the passing of time and minutes, the chances of the James team are getting smaller and smaller.

At this time, only if you keep shooting three-pointers, you may have a chance to catch up with the score.

But at this time, James did something that stunned everyone. He actually started to spend a lot of time playing singles inside, and finally scored at the basket.

He didn't pass even if there was an open space outside the three-point line of his teammates in the middle, and he was determined to take these two points.

"What does this mean?" Yun Chen was speechless, not understanding his operation, but Curry who passed by him reminded him.

"He's scoring points." Curry pouted.

"Score? What do you mean?" The corner of Yunchen's mouth twitched, suspecting that Curry was joking with him. In his impression, only people like Lance Stephenson and Brandon Jennings would do such a thing.

Curry: "That's what he did in the 17 Finals. At the last moment, JR obviously had a three-point opportunity and he didn't pass the ball. He just scored in singles."

"This..." Yun Chen blinked and turned to look at James on the court.

The game continued, and Yunchen's offense was time-consuming. It took the last 5 seconds to make a shot, and James pushed back.

This is a good opportunity for them. Although the chance of catching up is really small, there is still a chance to get close to the score.

However, James once again made that kind of operation, playing alone, even if his teammates have an open three-pointer, he will not pass.

At this time, James seemed a little dazed.
