Chapter 334 Big Heart! Threat: If you miss the penalty, I'll deliver the final blow!
Su Yan has scored 43 points so far, which is a solid foundation, especially when paired with Iverson and McGrady, who are playing at their peak.
The Knicks faced the Celtics' "Fab Five" and kept the game close until the final two minutes.
Next up is the stage for superstars.
Su Yan, facing Pierce at the right wing of the arc, exchanged a few trash words with him and was about to violently collide with him.
"tread!"
Ray Allen also joined the lineup.
Two-man encirclement.
They have absolutely no sense of martial ethics.
Pass the ball?
Not a single bit can be transmitted.
"boom!"
First, a heavy confrontation was inflicted on Pierce, making him feel pain and endure suffering.
"Whoosh!"
He immediately accelerated laterally, making face-to-face contact with Ray Allen, and the two rushed towards the basket together, heading into the paint area.
"boom!"
He exerted his strength and gave Ray Allen another chance to fight back, like a father hitting his son, easily pushing Ray Allen away.
An opportunity is emerging?
No.
Garnett came up again, and Su Yan faked a shot, knocking Garnett away, took a step forward, and attacked the basket with a back-and-forth motion.
"Damn it, me too!"
Rashid Wallace roared as he chased after Su Yan, which was either timely or allowed him to avoid being surrounded by three people.
I need a hat!
Su Yan's gaze sharpened, and he teased the arc of his shot—no, not a normal shot, but a shot that bypassed the block by smashing the backboard.
The basketball slammed against the backboard with great speed and force, bounced away, and Su Yan flashed forward, rushing in and jumping first to catch the ball.
BOOM!
He catches the ball with both hands and dunks it with great force.
"WOOOW~"
Reggie Miller exclaimed, "What is that? A self-thrown dunk!!!"
"unbelievable!"
Barkley's expression trembled. "Su Yan actually pulled off a self-alley-oop in Game 6 of the Eastern Conference Finals."
It was at a crucial moment.
That's incredibly skillful and daring, and absolutely stunning!
"Hahaha!"
McGrady, sitting on the sidelines, couldn't help but clap and laugh: "That's so cool! It's...it's just like me!"
"This guy!"
Rashid Wallace was stunned and stood there dumbfounded.
Ray Allen, Pierce, and Garnett were also dumbfounded.
"At a time like this, you still dare to play like this?!"
Pierce gritted his teeth, "Isn't this a bit too much of a blatant disregard for human beings? Isn't this a bit too much of a pretense?!"
Qi returns to Qi.
When attacking.
Pierce remained patient and continued to seek cover, completely avoiding Su Yan before launching his attack.
The mismatch led to Iverson's weakness.
In the past, Iverson could rely on his explosive talent to keep up with his opponents and look for opportunities to steal the ball.
The speed is not good enough now.
Their reaction time is also insufficient.
A true defensive weakness.
However... Su Yan was watching closely from behind, ready to step in and stop Pierce if he dared to break through.
Pierce understood too.
He slowly changed direction in front of his body, his right hand hovering the ball horizontally, seeing that Iverson's footwork was not immediately quick enough.
Keep up.
He raised his hand and made a three-pointer.
Iverson didn't lose his position much, but... his current height and athleticism couldn't bother Pierce at all.
We can only make a token attempt, as it's just empty interference.
Got it?
"Bang!"
Blacksmithing.
Three-pointers are not Pierce's absolute strength, although his 41% three-point shooting percentage this season looks pretty good.
However, many of these shots were uncontested, and the base of 1.4 three-pointers made per game was still too small.
Not stable enough.
At this crucial moment, a time that tests one's composure, Pierce failed to hit the target.
Perhaps... if he were at his peak, Paul Pierce, who was dominating "Young LeBron," could have hit a three-pointer like that.
This is why Su Yan said they were getting old too.
rebound?!
Garnett, Rasheed Wallace, David Lee, and Tyson all scrambled for the ball, but none of them managed to get it.
The basketball fell to the ground.
All four players rushed in, causing chaos in the paint, with Rondo and Wilson Chandler also squeezing in.
Chaos reigned in the restricted area.
"No, it's just a basketball backboard, why are you taking it so seriously?"
"Just kidding, in life-or-death moments, it's all about a rebound, a turnover, a steal, a brilliant pass, and so on."
Every little detail can affect the outcome.
Both teams were locked in a fierce battle, and the match had reached its climax! It was fantastic; this match was absolutely thrilling!
Reggie Miller and Charles Barkley provide passionate commentary.
But the basketball was like a hot potato; none of the six men could hold it. In the end, Iverson and Ray Allen managed to snatch it up.
"Beep!"
The whistle blows.
Fight for the ball.
The "Golden Generation of '96" battle for the ball.
"Snapped!"
Ray Allen, taller and in better form, swatted the ball away first, Garnett caught it, and watched as Pierce cut in.
But the ball was passed to Ray Allen, who immediately ran to the left corner to wait, and he immediately hit a three-pointer.
Iverson chased after him to block the shot, but he was several beats too late.
That was a chance.
"Bang!"
But Ray Allen wasn't confident either; he was also one of the "Three Musketeers" during the SuperSonics era, known for his unpredictable three-point shooting.
old.
Pierce, Garnett, and Ray Allen are all getting old; their "big hearts" aren't as strong as they used to be.
With a large number of people and powerful forces, and numerous giants.
That's how they win.
When it comes to crucial shots and life-or-death moments requiring clutch performances, the Celtics are not at an advantage.
He missed twice.
The Celtics also realized what the problem was.
On the offensive end, our capabilities are fixed and cannot be changed, so we must work hard on the defensive end.
Fight Su Yan to the death.
If the rest of you get in, then accept your fate.
At this moment, Su Yan had no intention of passing the ball; he wanted to acknowledge the responsibilities that a superstar should bear.
Attack it yourself.
Even if you can't break through, you have to attack yourself.
"Bang!"
His three-point attempt also missed.
However... during the offensive and defensive transitions, the Celtics struggled to score despite the Knicks' all-out defense.
Both sides repeatedly missed their shots.
The intensity of the defense was too high, coupled with the exhaustion of physical strength in the final moments.
This caused both teams to go into a scoring drought.
Time kept passing, little by little, and soon... only 23.4 seconds remained.
Rondo pushed the ball over, and with them still trailing by 2 points, they had to make this play to tie the score first.
Middle of the arc.
Rondo calmly assessed the situation on the court, broke through and passed back to Pierce at the right edge of the arc, then switched the ball to Ray Allen at the right corner.
Wilson gave chase.
Another high lob pass to Garnett under the basket, and David Lee and Tyson immediately swarmed him.
Not giving them any chance.
Garnett?!
He passed the basketball again, dribbling it to Rondo's hands. Seeing Tyson step back, he also asked for the ball.
Simultaneously.
Pierce on the right wing used a cover to shake off Su Yan and charged in.
All eyes were on him, Garnett, and Ray Allen, who was waiting at the top of the right wing.
"Wow!"
Rondo looked at Pierce, made a pass to the unnoticed right corner, and passed it to Rasheed Wallace.
What's the point of passing the ball to the inside player at the three-point line?
Available in the next second.
A scene that shocked everyone unfolded: Rasheed Wallace, the "Roaring God," who had been battling it out in the paint.
Catch and shoot!
Catch the ball and shoot.
A three-pointer from the corner went in!!!
"do not!"
"Why did they let Rasheed shoot on that possession? He's an inside player, this is just reckless!"
"It's over, Barbie Q!"
"Holy shit!"
"He actually threw it! My God, please, please, it has to hit!!!"
"..."
The home Celtics fans, amidst their collective breakdown, continued to pray for Rasheed Wallace.
He has already made his move.
There's no turning back now, no more chances to shoot. All we can do is pray he makes that three-pointer.
otherwise.
They failed at the last hurdle and were eliminated.
Does it exist?!
The basketball spinning in the air captivated the hearts of tens of thousands of fans in the arena, tracing an arc through the air before flying towards the basket.
"Shh!"
hit.
Rasheed Wallace hit this three-pointer.
He is one of the few stretch big men in the league right now, and his style is somewhat similar to Channing Frye of the Phoenix Suns.
Possesses a certain three-point shooting ability!
Of course... at his peak, "Roaring God" was superior to Channing Frye in both interior defense and outside shooting.
It's no longer at its peak.
However, he also has some three-point shooting ability.
The Celtics' strategy just now was originally intended to find the most reliable "Big Three".
Rashid really had a wide-open chance.
That's also believable.
Rondo then passed the ball, and just then... Rasheed Wallace lived up to expectations and hit the three-pointer.
The stadium fell silent for a moment.
Immediately, cheers and shouts surged forth like a tide.
If Rasheed hadn't made that three-pointer, he would have been torn to shreds by the Celtics fans after the game.
same.
He will receive the loudest cheers for hitting that three-pointer and helping his team take a one-point lead.
"call……"
Rashid wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and breathed a sigh of relief.
The moment he received the basketball, his scalp tingled, but time was running out.
The arrow is on the string and must be fired.
He had to take the shot, under immense pressure, and that was a three-pointer that seemed to be his scapegoat.
If they don't go in, I'll curse them to death.
Fortunately, we got in, so everything is fine now.
"I hit the game-winning three-pointer! Aa ...
After adjusting my mindset.
Rashid immediately started running around the field, basking in the praise of the fans and teammates, and went wild with celebration!
Oh my god!
How could that possibly hit?!
Curry was on the bench, holding his head in his hands, looking utterly desperate.
"What bad luck!"
Tyson's breakdown was written all over his face.
"shit!"
David Lee looked extremely grim, and even Su Yan frowned, thinking that Rashid was rather lucky.
There is no way, luck is also part of strength.
Curry's big outburst in the last game was partly due to luck.
In the first three quarters tonight, McGrady and Iverson exploded, entering a "near-peak" state, allowing him to gain an advantage in the game without needing to use [the "candy" item], which also involved a bit of luck.
just now.
Rasheed Wallace's game-winning three-pointer also had an element of luck!
This is also part of strength.
It must be acknowledged.
"Beep!"
Coach D'Antoni immediately called a timeout.
There are 4.2 seconds left on the clock.
Too few, far too few.
In such a short time, in the high-pressure Game 6 of the Eastern Conference Finals, how could they possibly launch an offensive and turn the tide of the game?
It's extremely difficult.
The pressure is entirely on the Knicks.
On the bench.
Coach D'Antoni said in a deep voice: "Guys, 4.2 seconds isn't a long time, but if you execute a play, you're guaranteed a normal shot opportunity."
The difference was only one point.
This means we can deliver a decisive blow and take down the Celtics!
As for the tactics, everyone knows them: do everything you can to cover for Su Yan and give him opportunities to receive the ball and attack.
Whether it's attacking the basket or shooting three-pointers.
Su Yan is trustworthy. If he gets the ball, he'll definitely score, save the team, and deliver the winning goal!
Su Yan: ? ? ?
No, even if I know you said those words to encourage the team members.
Do you have to portray me as some kind of god?
Please, the way you're saying this is putting a lot of pressure on me.
Su Yan was inwardly bitter, but he didn't say anything. Instead, he smiled confidently and nodded emphatically: "Don't worry, everyone, we will definitely win the game!"
"Oh!"
"With Su Yan around, anything is possible!"
We will definitely win!
"Let's advance to the finals tonight!"
The players, who had been silent, suddenly became incredibly energetic after receiving Su Yan's words of affirmation and encouragement.
To a certain extent.
Su Yan's chicken soup is tastier and more effective than the coach's.
On the Celtics' side...
No one let their guard down; everyone knew that Su Yan possessed an extremely powerful ability to deliver a decisive blow in matches.
No one will be careless until time runs out.
soon.
The pause ends.
The decisive moment has arrived with 4.2 seconds left!
"See you in Game 7! See you in Game 7! See you in Game 7!"
The arena was suddenly filled with thunderous chants of "See you in Game 7!", a clear indication that the Knicks would lose!
The sound was deafening and had an imposing presence.
Stack up the "devil's home field" buff to the maximum.
David Lee inbounds the ball from the center circle, while Pierce, Garnett, and Ray Allen keep a close eye on Su Yan.
They didn't give him any chance to receive the ball.
While engaging in off-the-ball combat and making off-the-ball runs, Su Yan used his teammates' constant screens to try and circle out to receive the ball.
This will take some time.
Just as Su Yan ran out, David Lee felt that the five-second serve time was about to expire and he was about to commit a violation.
Let's post it first and then talk about it.
Seeing that Wilson Chandler had an opportunity at the left edge of the arc, he decisively passed the ball to him first.
As it turned out... Pierce anticipated this and rushed out from the free-throw line.
Intercepted halfway.
He accepted the basketball directly.
David Lee serves but fails.
"Oh no! What am I doing?!"
David Lee was devastated and filled with self-blame.
"Damn it!"
Su Yan, who had just circled out, saw Pierce steal the ball and immediately sensed something was wrong. Without pausing, he yelled at Wilson, "Foul him!!!"
"Huh? Oh!"
Wilson Chandler was taken aback, reacted a beat too slow, and hurriedly found Pierce to foul him.
"Beep!"
At that moment, the referee blew his whistle.
what happened? !
It turned out to be the experienced Iverson who was the first to rush over and grab Pierce's arm, fouling him.
Both teams had already exceeded the four fouls allowed in a single quarter.
This foul sent Pierce directly to the free-throw line, giving the Knicks 3.5 seconds.
"It's over! It's really over!"
Larry Hughes was in a real bind.
"Hey……"
Curry sighed, "Yan has already made it into an open position; the story shouldn't be going this way."
But it's too late to change it.
Let's look at the free throws first. At worst, if we make both free throws, it'll be a three-point difference, and we'll have one more timeout!
3.5 seconds.
If Yan were here, there should still be one more chance to turn the tide!
On the field.
"tread!"
Pierce stepped up to the free-throw line, waiting for the referee to pass him the ball.
The remaining players walked to the extensions on both sides of the free throw line and took their positions according to the rules. Su Yan also walked over.
but.
As he passed Pierce, he whispered, "Get serious. You'd better make both free throws, or... I'll blow your life away with a three-pointer!!!"
