Almighty Athlete Chapter 418: 4 overtime
"Are we going to say goodbye to the World Championships in this way?" Durant's face was unwilling. As the boss of the Dream Nine team, he once dreamed of leading the American team to regain the world championship after a long absence of ten years. Things that the predecessors did not do. However, the cruel reality gave a vivid lesson.
Shashevski forced to remain calm. As the most famous coach in the United States, he has experienced countless winds and rains, has seen too many big scenes, and has faced adversity many times, but in such an important game, Losing two hands in a row, Shashevsky encountered it for the first time.
"The referee has returned to the watch!" I don't know who yelled. Everyone looked at it immediately and saw a "1" on the timer.
"1 second full! After the referee watched the video, the referee decided to give 1 second back to the watch! 1 second, it is too short, it is difficult to complete an attack at all, this should be the last time the United States team in this World Championship 1 second!"
Deng Huade looked at this number and was a little unhappy. It is said that this time it was mostly tenths of a second. The referee gave a full time of 1 second, which is obviously beyond the normal range. It seems that he wants to give the American team a little more. Time.
However, Deng Huade thinks confidently. One second is not enough for the US team to make a comeback. If it is in NBA, a turnaround within 1 second will always appear once or twice every season, even on the stage of the playoffs, because in the last two minutes of NBA, after the timeout, you can be in the center line Serve. But in the World Championships, you can only serve on the bottom line, and one second is too short.
The U.S. team made another substitution. Love, Gay and Westbrook played and replaced Odom, Billups and Ross. Coupled with Iguodala and Durant, these five people almost represent the best physical talent of the US team.
When Love was standing on the bottom line preparing for a free throw, the players of the Chinese team have realized that the US team is preparing to make a comeback with an air relay.
It takes 1 second to serve from the bottom line, and the air relay is undoubtedly the highest scoring method. Throwing the defensive rebound and throwing it directly into the frontcourt is Le Fu's housekeeping skill. The task of throwing the opponent's basket directly at the bottom line can only be done by Le Fu.
As for the candidates for the air relay, Durant and Guy are suitable. Durant’s height and physical fitness make it very easy to complete an air relay. Guy has an excellent arm span and amazing bounce. He can complete a dunk on the free throw line. The air relay is not difficult for him.
"Defend Durant and Guy!" Deng Huade issued the order for the first time.
......
Love never felt that his burden was so heavy.
As an inside player, and the core of the Timberwolves, he has been responsible for saving the team many times, but that is to throw a lore ball or grab the most critical rebounds. But today, he has to do the point guard and save the team by serving.
Love took a deep breath and chose a landing point. He stepped back slightly and threw the ball directly.
"Block Durant!"
"Stop Guy!"
"Don’t let Iguodala pass!"
The Chinese team’s players are holding up their opponents and not letting them move.
"Damn it! I'm so entangled by this Chinese!" Rudy Gay stared angrily into the air. basketball had already flown over. Love's choice of landing point was very good. With Guy's ability to bounce As long as you can get rid of the defender, you can easily complete an air relay.
"Let me pass!" Durant squeezed out like crazy, Zhou Peng was almost overwhelmed by Durant in the physical confrontation, but at this time in the game, no one cares about this, everyone's attention is all On basketball.
"Oops, it's too late!" Durant watched the ball getting closer and closer to the basket, but he was too late to run.
"The American team is over!" Seeing Durant blocked, almost everyone came up with this idea.
At this moment, a body suddenly flew over!
Indeed, for humans, this can really be described as "flying".
"Westbrook! Air Relay!"
Exclaimed from the audience.
We saw that Wei Shao grabbed the ball, and then gently pushed towards the basket. His body also fell heavily on the ground because he lost his balance in the air.
"Did the goal score?" People looked at the basket.
I saw that basketball rolled two laps on the basket and then slowly stopped.
At this moment, time seems to be still.
"Go in!"
"Don’t go in!"
Everyone’s heart hangs.
"Wow!"
The ball still rolled into the basket.
"The ball has entered! The air relay, this ball is valid, the last second, 128 to 128, is evenly divided! It is evenly divided again! We are going to see the fourth overtime!"
"Not Durant, Iguodala, not Guy, but Westbrook! Westbrook pulled the US team from the edge of defeat!"
......
On the bench, Shashevsky was relieved. When he saw Durant and Guy blocked, he really thought that the US team had lost the game, and Westbrook came suddenly. This air relay was not planned by Shashevsky.
With a center-high forward like Durant, a spring man like Guy, and an all-around fighter like Iguodala, Shashevsky certainly wouldn’t expect the shortest point guard to come Completed the air relay~IndoMTL.com~ However, Westbrook gave him a big surprise.
"Russell (Westbrook)'s physical talent is terrible. I don't think it will take long before he will become the first point guard of NBA!" Shashevsky sighed softly.
The assistant coach next to him was slightly shocked. Now the recognized first point guard of the NBA is of course Paul, and in the future, this position obviously belongs to Ross.
"Does the coach feel that Westbrook has more potential than Rose?" The assistant coach looked surprised, he lowered his voice and said: "I think Russell is still a long way from the world's first point guard. Go away."
"I'm talking about the nba first point guard, not the world's first point guard!" Shashevsky added.
"Isn't nba first in the world?" the assistant coach puzzled.
"No! The world's No. 1 is still on the court, in our opponent's lineup! It is almost impossible to surpass him." Shashevsky looked at Zhang Guan and then said: "To It's the fourth overtime, we must win the Chinese team in one go, and we can't appear the fifth overtime!" (To be continued.)
