Basketball boy, starting to shine from the slam dunk

"This ball goes in, this ball goes in."

"Great, this ball went in and we took the lead."

"Zhuang Yu is amazing, he is God."

The home fans all jumped up excitedly, screaming, cheering, and shouting loudly, venting their excitement and happiness.

The Staples Center was in jubilation.

After this goal, the score was changed to 112:111, and the Lakers took the lead by one point again.

Some are happy and some are sad.

The home fans were cheering excitedly, while the Raptors fans were collectively silent, their faces turning gloomy.

They didn't expect to experience a process of heaven and hell in the end. They finally waited until the Raptors finally overtook the score, giving them hope of winning. But in the last few seconds, Zhuang Yu hit a fadeaway jumper and overtook the score again.

This is a little hard for Raptors fans to accept. They hope that all this is fake and nothing happened.

"Requesting a timeout."

When Leonard, Lowry and others on the court were still in a daze, Coach Nurse was the first to react and immediately called a timeout.

Even though there were only two seconds left, the game was not over yet.

When several Raptors players came to the sidelines, despair was written on their faces. At this point no one could deceive themselves. They might really lose.

"No, the game isn't over yet."

Coach Nash forced himself to stay calm and said in the calmest tone possible: "There are two seconds left. We still have a chance to beat the Lakers."

The assistant coach next to him immediately agreed: "Even if there are only a few tenths of a second left, there is still a chance to make the buzzer beater. What's more, we have a full two seconds now. We still have one chance to attack. As long as we seize this opportunity and make the shot, we will still win."

A group of players barely managed to cheer up.

Coach Nash spread out the tactical board, drew a simple tactic, and then looked at Leonard: "You take the shot."

In the second round of the playoffs, Leonard hit that crucial three-pointer to help the Raptors defeat the 2ers. He created a miracle once, and coach Nurse hopes he can create it again.

At times like this, only Leonard can shoot.

Meanwhile, on the Lakers side.

Everyone gathered around Coach Scott, their faces filled with excitement.

Coach Scott raised his hand and pressed it down, signaling everyone to be quiet. Although he could not hide his excitement, he tried to control his emotions. His expression was still serious. He said in a deep voice: "The game is not over yet. There are two seconds left. I don't think I need to say more about what to do next. Just defend this ball for me. Can you do it?"

"can."

"We must defend it."

"The Lakers must win!"

There is nothing to arrange. At this time, the head coaches of both sides can't do anything at all because time is too tight. They can only leave everything to the players.

When the timeout ends, players from both teams return to the court.

Several Raptors players gathered in a group, which was a tactic similar to the "Starburst Tactic". In an instant, several people would scatter like an explosion. The one who served the ball at the sideline was Lowry. He would pass the ball, and the person who received the ball might only have one second to throw it.

In the audience stands, all the fans were staring at the field nervously.

At this moment, people felt their breathing slow down, and their hearts seemed to jump to their throats, as if they were being pulled.

......

on the field.

Before, Lowry was standing on the sidelines holding up the ball and shaking it, while several Raptors players on the court dispersed in an instant. Leonard, Danny Green, and Siakam each ran to the outside and dispersed in an instant, while Gasol Jr. moved directly to the basket.

In this way, Lowry can pass the ball to Leonard and the other two on the outside, or he can directly pass the ball to the basket.

If the opportunity is good enough and is given directly to Gasol, then Gasol can shoot directly...

But this time, no such opportunity arose.

After the few people dispersed, Lowry found Leonard first and passed the ball to Leonard. At this time, it was not Cunningham who rushed towards Leonard, but Anderson and Zhuang Yu.

The two men pounced on Leonard together.

The Lakers were also prepared, knowing that the ball would most likely be given to Leonard. Except for Lopez who was guarding Gasol in the interior, the other players were moving.

With only two seconds left, the Raptors had no time to pass the ball, so Holiday could ignore Lowry and rush directly to Danny Green. Cunningham rushed to Siakam, while Zhuang Yu and Anderson rushed to Leonard together.

Zhuang Yu is fast enough and Anderson has enough height and wingspan. Under the blockade of the two, Leonard can't even see the basket.

In fact, he didn't have time to aim at the basket. After receiving the ball, he didn't even have time to dribble. He turned around and jumped up after receiving the ball. He could only shoot the ball based on his feeling.

"boom!"

There was a dull sound, and the basketball drew an arc and finally hit the basket and bounced high, and the timer lit up.

it's over!

At this moment, the game is over.

In the audience stands, the home fans were jumping and cheering. They could finally let go of their worries and celebrate to their heart's content.

The fans of the Raptors were all lamenting and felt hopeless.

Hope has been shattered.

The flame of hope was almost extinguished, but it was finally rekindled, igniting their longings, but it eventually returned to silence again.

The Raptors lost the game and the entire series. Ultimately, they were unable to drag the series into a seventh game and missed the championship.

Fans of the visiting team began to leave, because the cheers here did not belong to them, and all they could take away was loss and sadness.

A group of Raptors players were also filled with disappointment, regret, and unwillingness.

A season's worth of hard work, an entire series' worth of hard work, finally came to an end here, at this moment.

For them, the season is over.

In this season they have experienced hardships, pain and also great glory, but when everything came to an end, they were not the ones who reached the top.

This is competitive sports, the process is important, but the result is more important.

If you can't make it to the end, can't reach the top, can't look down on everyone, and become the final winner, then no matter how glorious and brilliant the process is, it will become dull at this moment, and all the focus is now on the Lakers.

Amidst the enthusiastic cheers and screams, a group of Lakers players hugged each other. They surrounded Zhuang Yu, cheering and shouting passionately...

They won, successfully defended their title, and won the championship again!
