Out of distrust for Kidd who was reluctant to play, Coach Frank hoped that McGinnis would end this offensive opportunity instead of Kidd.
The main reason was that the first ball after the timeout was too important. 18 points was like a mountain, weighing on the hearts of everyone on the Nets.
If this ball was scored, it would undoubtedly be a huge boost to the morale of the entire team.
Unfortunately, things did not go as planned. McGinnis did not choose to shoot hard when someone was defending him.
He glanced at the court and saw Kidd, who was in an open position at a 45-degree angle, stretching his arm towards him.
He did not think too much. The basketball flew straight to Kidd's direction.
When Kidd received the ball, the closest defender to him was Gino. Billy,
He looked at Kidd's face, thought of his touching shooting percentage, hesitated for a while and gave up the idea of rushing over,
After all, if he didn't go to make up for the defense, Kidd would shoot,
But if he gave up Lagabel, the situation would be completely different. Kidd would definitely give the ball to Lagabel as soon as possible,
You may not believe in Kidd's shooting, but no one dares to underestimate his assist ability and vision,
He can still tell which is more important, Lagabel with a 42% three-point shooting percentage and Kidd with a 35% three-point shooting percentage.
Kidd, who was standing in the open space, got the ball. He didn't expect to have the first offensive opportunity so soon.
He took a deep breath, carefully paid attention to his ankles, controlled himself outside the three-point line, and jumped up on his toes slightly.
The basketball was thrown out from his hands. The arc of the ball was not high, and there was no beautiful parabola.
Maybe because he just came on the court, his hands were a little cold.
The flat and straight shot condensed the expectations of the Nets players and flew to the basket.
"Ding"
With a harsh impact, the basketball hit the hoop and flew high to the outside.
The whole audience was full of sighs, and then turned into silence.
The greater the hope, the greater the disappointment. Is it inevitable that the Nets will lose tonight?
A big question mark was drawn in the hearts of the fans.
Kidd's appearance was the most surprising and the biggest adjustment that the Nets could make.
But it seemed that there was no difference in the first round after the timeout.
It was still deadly, and Roy, the team's biggest reliance, was still facing the joint encirclement of the opponent's two inside players.
Kidd closed his eyes painfully outside the three-point line. When the basketball was shot, he could clearly feel the unfamiliarity.
Originally, he still held a glimmer of luck, after all, the direction of the basketball flight was very straight.
Obviously, there was no miracle, and good luck did not fall on him, let alone the Nets.
In the bottom corner, Parker's mouth corners were slightly raised.
I had guessed it a long time ago. The nickname "Kidd doesn't attack" is obviously not for nothing.
Before he was injured, he was only 50-50 with me, and I often shot over his head.
But now, I think he is just an ordinary old man who is about to retire, nothing special.
Everything seemed to be under the control of the Spurs.
Roy was still entangled with the Spurs duo in the interior and had no time to fight for the rebound.
The direction of the basketball was exactly the direction of veteran Horry.
As long as they could get this rebound, the Spurs would have another easy fast break opportunity.
If the score difference of the game rose to 20 points, it would not only shatter the remaining self-confidence of the Nets, but also nail Jason Kidd to the pillar of shame.
Killing two birds with one stone, the basketball flew towards Horry, and the ending seemed to have been predetermined.
"Be careful!"
A voice that sounded like a teammate came from not far behind Horry, and it was extremely urgent.
Horry, who didn't know why, didn't take it to heart. He didn't know what the hell he was yelling about?
The rebound is about to be in hand, just wait to launch a fast break!
Duncan jumped up with his feet and stretched out his arms, blocking Roy, giving himself a great opportunity to easily grab the rebound.
When the rebound was about to fall into his arms,
A strong wind suddenly blew behind him,
The falling basketball was intercepted in mid-air,
Then there was a rapid impact from the back, and the huge force bent his waist,
Then the sky darkened at that moment,
The basketball was grabbed from mid-air with both hands and pressed into the basket again!
"Bang-Dang"
Horry fell to the ground,
A huge sound came from above his head, and a pair of long legs swung over his head,
71 to 87!
Horry subconsciously shrank his head, fearing that the opponent's basketball shoes would scratch his face,
The figure in the white jersey was like an ancient demon god, which made people tremble with fear.
The unidentified flying object that cut through the night sky of New JerseyThe walking creature was none other than Vince Carter, the half-man, half-god.
The huge impact of the dunk, grabbing the basket with both hands, made his body swing greatly in the air.
The overwhelming dunk shook the hearts of every fan present.
The Nets home court, which had been suppressed for a long time, burst into thunderous cheers at this moment.
"NICE!"
"Vince, you are the god in my heart!"
"Incredible, Vince, you are the chosen one!"
...
Until Horry got up from the ground, Carter made sure that he was safe when he fell,
loosened his hands for the dunk, and the real god returned to the earth again!
As for how Carter attacked the inside line during this period of time, he might not be able to explain it clearly.
Just now, he had only one feeling in his heart, that this ball must be scored no matter what!
In any case, the offense was achieved, and Frank and Kidd breathed a sigh of relief.
There was still a 16-point gap, and it would be a long journey to catch up.
But at least now there is a good start.
The Spurs had the ball, and Bowen passed it to Ginobili.
On the defensive end, veteran Kidd was arranged by coach Frank to defend Horry,
in order to take care of his not-so-flexible legs and feet.
Watching Kidd walk towards Horry's position, Parker, who was not far away, waved his arms,
"Old man, I'm here, why are you going inside? I'm your opponent!"
"Shut up, your opponent is me!"
Lagabelle will not be polite to the Frenchman. Parker's performance in the third quarter was also the main reason for the Nets' lag.
He was already full of anger, and he became more and more dissatisfied with the arrogant Parker.
Facing the angry Lagabelle, Tony Parker glanced at him awkwardly.
The other party looked fierce, and he was a man who would easily fight if he disagreed with him. The 1.88-meter-tall Parker knew clearly what was important.
"Don't be complacent, I will beat you and win the damn championship!"
Admitting defeat did not affect the Frenchman's harsh words, which was also his routine operation.
Seeing that the Nets ignored him, his desire for revenge not only did not diminish, but became stronger.
However, the basketball was in Ginobili's hands this round, and even if he wanted to use offense to counterattack, he could not find the space to exert force.
He could only roam around the court in the air, hoping that Ginobili would give him the ball when he had no chance.
Ginobili dribbled the ball and stood at the top of the arc.
Looking at Kidd and Horry standing together in the interior, it was indescribably funny.
The Nets would not put Kidd in that position for no reason. The only reason should be that Kidd's foot injury has not healed completely.
I should make good use of this.
