The point difference was opened again to 9 points, and it became Memphis 58:67 Butler!

With less than 4 minutes left, Memphis was still behind by nearly 10 points. Coupled with the terrifying home atmosphere of Butler University, even Li Kaiming himself felt a little tricky.

It's not easy to fight now!

Pastner didn't call a timeout, but he made a gesture to the players on the court and shouted a word at the same time.

"Delay!"

The players in Memphis know that this is Pastner's defensive strategy in response to Hayward.

In the last 5 minutes, Hayward almost didn't miss his shots. If there is no targeted defense, I'm afraid there will be a monster with an explosive touch.

On the offensive end, after Kemp came to the frontcourt with the ball, he still called for a cover. Williams first cut into the three-point line from 45 degrees, and then suddenly changed direction and ran out from the other side at 45 degrees.

Butler's defensive formation has also changed with Memphis' run.

Matt Howard had to switch defenses with Ryan Decker and followed Williams to the left three-point line.

Kemp, holding the ball, saw Howard was attracted to the other side by Williams, immediately dribbled the ball out of the three-point line, and then lobbed the ball to Li Kaiming, who was in the waist.

Williams acted as a bait in this offense, moving Butler's power forward Howard away from Li Kaiming's side, clearing up space for the latter to play singles.

At the same time, Daniel Mack also stayed away from the penalty area as much as possible to prevent his opponent from suddenly double-teaming Li Kaiming.

Seeing that Li Kaiming was about to start his solo show again, the fans booed loudly!

"Shut up!"

In addition to booing, there were also fans spontaneously organizing neat slogans. When Butler University was defending, everyone was organized by the leader and shouted in unison.

"Defense! Defense! Defense!"

The Memphis players only felt a burst of strong pressure, as if they were not playing in the arena, but were being judged in court!

They seem to have become the enemy of the whole world!

Under such tremendous pressure, Li Kaiming held the ball to face Andrew Smith's defense and stuck the ball to the midfielder to prevent Smith from cutting the ball with his hands.

Then he raised his head and glanced at the situation on the field.

Andrew Smith's defensive method is also very clear, mainly to prevent Li Kaiming from breaking through, so he stood one meter away from the latter, and then raised one hand.

In this position, with Li Kaiming's height and speed, he only needs to dribble the ball and he can go straight to the layup, so he can't help it.

And Li Kaiming also saw Smith's fear of him, and took the ball first with a tentative step with his right foot.

Smith's center of gravity immediately deviated to Li Kaiming's right side.

After that, Li Kaiming quickly retracted his right foot, and stepped forward with his right foot to the left.

Smith had to adjust his center of gravity accordingly.

After these two trials, Smith's defensive center of gravity had lost his defensive center of gravity, so he had to take a small step back to maintain his balance!

But this retreat doesn't matter. For Li Kaiming, who has a fiery touch at the moment, this small step, coupled with the fact that Smith is already far away, will leave him almost an empty seat!

If you don't vote at this time, when will you wait!

So Li Kaiming shot up from the ground in an instant with the ball, and shot an elegant iron-blooded jumper!

Smith tried to control his body to interfere, but it was a step too late.

The basketball flew over his head, and fell into the hoop amidst the boos of a large crowd of spectators!

60: 67!

Li Kaiming makes another move!

Lucas Oil Stadium was quiet for a moment, and with this goal, Li Kaiming has scored three goals in a row!

Even the most crazy home fans can tell at this moment that the Chinese boy on the opposite side seems to have a different energy tonight!

Stevens still didn't call a timeout. They held a 7-point advantage, and there were still 3 minutes left, so naturally they were not in a hurry.

During Butler's offensive round, the audience once again shouted Hayward's name.

Their meaning is very clear, give the ball to Hayward, we want to see Hayward's answerball!

When Hayward takes the ball, he still finds Andrew Smith to pick and roll, but this time Li Kaiming and Williams will not let them make it easily.

At the moment when Andrew Smith's screen was formed, Li Kaiming suddenly took a big step, rushed out of the three-point line, and rushed towards Hayward with his teeth and claws!

Feeling the oppression brought by Li Kaiming's huge size, Hayward, who had no fluctuations in his heart, also flashed a trace of tension in his eyes!

So he had to take a step behind the dribble.

But this step on the hind legs completely ruined the pick-and-roll between him and Smith.

After Li Kaiming delayed for a while, Williams, who was blocked by Smith, also got rid of the cover and ran over immediately, staying in front of Hayward.

Butler's first attack was resolved by Memphis!

Seeing this, Hayward knew that it was useless to play again and Andrew Smith's pick-and-roll.

So he packed up his mood and prepared to fuck Williams directly.

The enthusiasm of the audience is so high, if he passes the ball, the morale will be affected!

And at this moment, his touch is also very good. As an ncaa star player, he has the confidence to score on Williams' head.

Even if the latter is the best defender on the perimeter of the University of Memphis!

There are still ten seconds left in the time!

Hayward dribbled the ball to face Williams, and suddenly accelerated with a scissors step. At the same time, the left-handed ball protector stuck Williams' chest to prevent him from easily taking the ball.

Williams' defensive ability is not covered, his physical fitness is very good, otherwise he will not become the gate of Memphis's perimeter defense!

Although Hayward picked up his speed, Williams has always maintained the correct defensive position, leaving no room for the former.

Hayward saw that the breakthrough was not enough, so he changed the breakthrough into a back shot within the three-point line. He is a No. 3 in the size of the group, and his height is more than two meters. Although Williams' physical fitness is very good, but the only real height is 1.9 meters six.

No matter how good the physical fitness is, the 5 cm height difference is here, and back hitting naturally has an advantage.

Hayward arched his back twice, feeling that the distance and rhythm were almost the same, he suddenly turned around, reached the baseline, then took off and shot a fadeaway jumper.

Williams was very fast, pounced on Hayward the moment he turned around, and then stretched his arms with all his strength to interfere with Hayward's shooting.

Seeing Hayward's shot, Li Kaiming at the basket immediately occupied the best rebounding position.

The arc of this recline is very good, but under the interference of Williams, it still hit an iron!

Li Kaiming took off on the spot and received the rebound!

The audience at the scene sighed and regretted that Hayward didn't score the goal.

If the goal is scored, Butler's aura will be even higher, completely overwhelming Memphis.

In the commentary, before Hayward made a shot, Koslov was still praying in his heart, hoping that the goal could be scored.

But when Li Kaiming took the rebound, Koslov's expression was not good.

This made the two Sharps on the side couldn't help laughing, "This is Hayward's first missed shot in the fourth quarter. Why do you look like he didn't make a shot today?"

Hearing Sharp's ridicule, Koslov's face darkened even more...

"Today's first update, thank you for your support, by the way, ask for votes~"
