Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    99 to 105, the time for the decisive battle has arrived!

    Thibodeau arranged a double screen. Ye took the ball at the top of the key and decided whether to play singles or split the ball. Matt Barnes came on. In addition to strengthening the defense against Marion, he also had to pay attention to grabbing offensive rebounds.  Si's rebounding efficiency is very high and has been very stable over the years, which is one of the reasons why he is popular wherever he goes.

    Thornton and Thomas were both replaced.  The Clippers can't take risks at this time.  It will be very easy for Nowitzki to face Thomas and Thornton in a mismatch after the pick-and-roll.

    The Gasol brothers, Ye Feng, Barnes, and Harrison are on the court, with their height advantage and a balanced offense and defense.  It's just that Ye Feng has to defend Deron Williams from the outside, and Harrison has a little difficulty against Carter.

    The Clippers' defensive tactics have changed to man-to-man, which makes it easier to switch defenses without chaos when encountering pick-and-rolls.

    The tactics arranged by the Mavericks are to allow Nowitzki to misplace the Clippers defender after the pick-and-roll, or Carter to attack with the ball.  Carter is also in excellent form today, currently scoring 18 points.

    With a 6-point lead and possession of the ball, the situation was very favorable for the Mavericks.  But in 4 minutes, the Clippers had a chance to overtake the score.

    The game restarted. The Mavericks attacked Carter for the first time and made a jumper. Gasol got the rebound. Ye Feng was double-teamed again at the top of the arc and passed it to Gasol. The latter also made a mid-range shot.  Not entering.

    After that, Nowitzki and Ye Feng worked separately.  In the third attack, Ye Feng finally got rid of the defense through the screen. Before his opponent came forward to double-team, he hit a fadeaway jumper from the right baseline, narrowing the point difference to only 4 points. But looking back, Nowitzki immediately  He hit Barnes out of position and hit a mid-range shot in return.  101 to 107.

    Every ball is crucial. Ye Feng took the ball to the frontcourt and passed it to Gasol. The latter supported him from the high post. He made a mistake when passing back to Ye Feng and was successfully intercepted by Marion.  Marion passed to Carter, who hit a three-pointer.  The score difference widened to 9 points.  101 to 110.

    With only 1 minute and 57 seconds left, Thibodeau quickly requested a timeout. This was a fatal mistake.  Thibodeau was also a little anxious and yelled at Gasol a few times after coming off the court.  Very dissatisfied with his careless passing.  But after the roar, Gasol still has to be allowed to continue playing, let alone on the bench.

    The Mavericks are an experienced team. Since they have a lead, they will definitely control the rhythm and strive to play for 24 seconds every time they attack. There is not much time left for the Clippers to chase points.  Gambling steals and full-court presses are not enough. It is difficult for Deron to intercept the ball and he has a wide field of vision.  Can also distribute the ball reasonably.

    On the Mavericks side, head coach Carlisle said: "As long as we defend the last two minutes, we will definitely win. This victory is very crucial. Don't give the Clippers any chance when they return to the home court. They are nothing special! Double-team Ye Feng and let the others go.  It doesn¡¯t matter if people shoot, you have to defend the perimeter, it doesn¡¯t matter if you score two points.¡±

    Carlisle guessed that the Clippers would pin their hopes on Ye Feng.  Now he has scored 30 points.

    Before taking the field, Ye Feng said loudly: "Brothers, cheer up. Don't be lifeless! We can't make any more mistakes, everyone must attack! Guard! Have confidence! Shout with me - must  Win!"

    ¡°We must win!¡±

    With a roar, the Clippers players were forced to call a timeout. The haze of being 9 points behind was left behind, and their morale was boosted.  The next step is to work hard. It is meaningless to think about the score and the outcome.

    "We can't lose. If we can't even beat the Mavericks, how can we deal with the winners of the Nets and Heat?" Ye Feng thought to himself.  Now he is under the greatest pressure.  Offense is his business, what other players have to do is defend.  Although no one would blame him if he lost, he didn't want to lose.  No matter how many championships he wins, his desire to win will not weaken. This is the source of his strength.

    The Mavericks have many stars, but no All-Star starters.  The leaders of the Heat and Nets are LeBron James and Dwight Howard. When they were the cores of the Cavaliers and Warcraft, they both led their teams to the finals.  With good teammates around him, he is more of a threat than the Mavericks.  The biggest challenge is yet to come.

    The Mavericks sent Kaman, Nowitzki, Marion, Carter, and Deron.  The game continues.

    Ye Feng dribbled the ball past half-court without passing the ball. He relied on the screen to reach 45 degrees on the right side, and Marion was the main defender.  Ye Feng caught the ball and walked toward the baseline, and Nowitzki defended him again, forming a double-team.  Ye Feng has been double-teamed on the baseline by the two men many times. With experience, he immediately half-turned and passed the ball to Barnes who was 60 degrees on the right, and at the same time ran back to the outside.  Marion went to guard Barnes, and Ye Feng got rid of Nowitzki through the high-post Gasol's off-ball screen.

    At 1 minute and 45 seconds, Ye Feng received the ball and stepped out of the three-point line, turned around and shot a fadeaway jumper. He was a little to the left of the top of the arc. This shot was a good opportunity and he shot it very resolutely.  The arc of the ball was not high and it hit the back edge of the basket.  A life-saving three-pointer narrowed the point difference to 6 points.  104 to 110.

    Mavericks offense, ?Long dribbled to the frontcourt and protected the ball for more than 15 seconds. Ye Feng interfered beside him. Chris Kaman pulled out to cover and blocked Ye Feng.  Deron broke through from the left and passed the ball to Marion while running.  The "Hacker" cut in from the baseline and made a lowhand layup.  He was very fast and relied on Nowitzki's off-ball screen to avoid Barnes. He got rid of Gasol in one step and faced the basket without any defense.

    At the critical moment, Ye Feng let go of Kaman to cover up the defense. He took off two steps from the free throw line and flew into the penalty area. He blocked the ball on the backboard with his right hand and pressed the backboard with his left hand to prevent himself from hitting it.  rebound.  Marion regretted it as soon as he saw Ye Feng flying over. This ball should have been thrown.

    The rebounded basketball was picked up by Harrison. The No. 6 rookie showed his bold side and rushed forward with the ball without waiting for Ye Feng.  This was the right choice. It won't take much time to score a counterattack. Now the Clippers are racing against time.  Carter, who was the quickest to return to defense, took no chances and grabbed Harrison.  If this goal is scored, the Clippers' morale will rise.

    The Mavericks committed less than 4 fouls in a single quarter and would not take free throws.

    At 1 minute and 21 seconds, Barnes sent the out-of-bounds ball. Ye Feng received the basketball under the cover of Gasol, turned around and entered the three-point line from the left.  The Gasol brothers ran to the basket, and Ye Feng singled out Marion. He dribbled the ball and retreated to make a pull-up jump shot.

    The ball unfortunately went wide, and when the fans sighed in disappointment, Gasol blocked Nowitzki and grabbed a priceless offensive rebound.  After he landed, he leaned back, did not force his shot, and passed the ball to Ye Feng, who was cutting in the middle.

    Ye Feng caught the ball and jumped sideways with all his strength in front of the reasonable collision area. His left shoulder hit Kaman who jumped to block the shot. He slammed the ball into the basket with his right hand. Kaman lost his balance and fell to the ground after landing.  Sliding off the bottom line.

    Kaman is a well-known strong man in the league, but he didn¡¯t take a run-up when he took off. Ye Feng used his momentum to knock him out and completed a shocking dunk in the playoffs!  This goal made the fans in the audience excited!  The referee blew the whistle and the defensive foul was 2+1!

    Ye Feng also hit the extra penalty, 107 to 110.  The Clippers are 3 points behind.  The Clippers substitute players were all shouting and cheering on the sidelines, seeing hope of winning.

    The Mavericks are still in the lead, but the pressure is on their side.

    Deron dribbled the ball to the frontcourt, launched an attack in the last 7 seconds, and gave it to Nowitzki. Gasol defended very tightly in the low post.  He played very poorly in this game, only scoring 11 points, but the offensive rebounds and assists just now can offset all the mistakes.  He defended this ball well. He didn't jump, he just used his body to lean against Nowitzki to prevent his breakthrough route.  Seeing that time was running out, Nowitzki chose to turn around and shoot a "Golden Rooster**" fadeaway jumper. The ball went wide, and Ye Feng got the rebound and hugged him tightly.

    There are still 55 seconds left, trailing by three points, and Ye Feng is no longer in a hurry.  At this time, we need to strive for a success rate. As long as we hit a three-pointer from the outside, we can tie it.  He protected the ball and dribbled across half court, and the Gasol brothers pulled out outside screens together, completely giving up the inside space.  Ye Feng dribbled the ball from the left to the low post, and Marion and Nowitzki double-teamed again.

    Ye Feng immediately passed the ball to Harrison. This ball showed his trust in his teammates. If the opportunity is good, pass it!  Harrison's three-pointer is guaranteed, as long as he can defeat himself and stabilize his mood.  Harrison was well prepared and released the ball with little adjustment.  Carter came up from the side to block the shot, but Harrison jumped too high to cover it.  The ball drew a beautiful arc and hit the net hollowly.  110 to 110.

    The score is evened!  After making this shot, Harrison was so excited that his heart almost jumped out of his chest.  While returning to defense, Ye Feng clapped hands with him and shouted: "Good job! Defense!"

    The Clippers went on a 9-0 offensive run and blindsided the Mavericks.  Carlisle looked ugly and asked for a timeout.

    The Mavericks were in the lead throughout the game, but at the critical moment the two sides were on the same starting line. The spectators outside the court cheered loudly to cheer for the home team. The Clippers' momentum soared, and the situation had become unfavorable to the Mavericks.

    During this period, the Mavericks' defense also had problems.  Kaman performed well on the offensive end, but his defensive ability is not as good as DeAndre Jordan.  The Mavericks did not let Jordan play in the final stage because they were worried that he would be sent to the free throw line. Jordan's free throw shooting this season is still terrible.

    If the shark-cutting tactic was used in the last 2 minutes, he would be sentenced to two free throws. However, in order to clear the inside for offense, Carlisle continued to let Kaman stay on the court. This arrangement allowed the Clippers to seize the opportunity, and now they have no regrets.  used.

    With only 34.7 seconds left, the next attack is crucial and may determine the outcome of the game.  If the Mavericks score the ball, they only need to defend the Clippers from one attack to win the game. If they don't score, the Clippers will have a chance to win.

    Carlisle made a few drawings on the tactical board and said loudly: "Dirk (Nowitzki), you give Vince (Carter) an off-ball screen. Vince and Shawn (Marion) are going to??Good time to make an air cut.  Deron (Williams) dribbles the ball quickly across half court. This ball must be completed within 5 seconds. Do you understand?  If you can't make a shot, quickly get back on defense and don't let them play a fast break. Remember, it must be fast!  "(To be continued)!~!
