Chapter 1672 Extreme Alley Receive 3+1
Trailing by 6 points in 4 seconds, no matter how you look at it, the Kings are already losing.
The cheers of the fans at the scene were louder and louder, reaching into the ears of the Kings players, as if row after row of huge waves were crashing towards them.
To slap them into the sea and let them sink to the bottom of the abyss.
The on-site DJ took the lead and played "Happy Swish" again.
The live cheerleaders were once again jumping excitedly on the sidelines.
The Rocket Bear at the scene once again twisted its fat butt and made some provocative gestures to the king.
The on-site commentator, Nicholas Zhaosi, was completely excited this time.
The excited mouth has been grinned to the back of the head, revealing a pair of yellow teeth.
At this time in the Kings dugout.
The players all set their sights on Wang Yi.
I saw that Wang Yi still had the confident expression on his face.
This also gave the players reassurance.
Although they are 6 points behind in 4 seconds, and they have no timeout now, they have to serve from the backcourt. In this case, it is difficult to score a goal, let alone score at least two goals to even the score difference.
But as long as they think about how many miracles Wang Yi has created, and Wang Yi's confident expression, they all feel at ease.
Nash, who was on the sidelines, suddenly felt something in his heart.
He knows that Wang Yi has the ability to shoot three-pointers from the backcourt. Although he hasn't seen it much in this year's games, who can guarantee that he hasn't practiced it in private.
And when he saw Wang Yi's confident expression, he felt uneasy. Could it be that Wang Yi was very confident in his backcourt 3-pointer and would definitely score?
It’s hard to say!
If it were anyone else, Nash would never believe that he could throw a three-pointer at this time, but Wang Yi couldn't use common sense to guess.
If that's the case, instead of letting him hit a three-pointer in the backcourt, it would be better to foul and let him take a free throw.
Even if he made the free throw, the Rockets still led by 4 points, and the Kings could only foul, and the two sides entered a penalty shootout.
In a penalty kick with only 4 seconds left, the Rockets have a much better chance of winning than the Kings.
It is even an exaggeration to say that it can be described as a sure victory.
On the one hand, it is possible to win, and on the other hand, victory is certain. Even fools know what to choose.
Thinking of this, Nash yelled at the Rockets players:
"Foul, foul, they foul when serving!"
As a result, Bond served directly from the baseline.
Wang Yi ran over to catch the ball.
At this time, the Kings ran a wonderful pick-and-roll, with Danny Jr. and Danny directly giving Wang Yi an elevator door cover.
This allowed Wang Yi to get rid of Jaylen Green who was chasing him.
Wang Yi came to a position close to the center circle.
Bond quickly threw the ball towards Wang Yi.
Wang Yi jumped up high to catch the ball in the air.
At this time, Kevin Jr. of the Rockets behind him had already pounced on him.
As long as the ball falls into Wang Yi's hands, he will immediately foul Wang Yi.
Wang Yi also knew this, and he immediately came up with countermeasures in his mind.
According to the current basketball rules, even if this guy fouls himself, as long as he does not land when he catches the ball, but shoots directly, it is considered a shooting foul, and he will have to throw at least three free throws.
What's more, I also have Tracy McGrady's moment experience card, which includes a guaranteed hit of 3+1.
Of course, these thoughts appeared in Wang Yi's mind in just a flash.
The next moment the ball was in his hands.
At the same time that the ball fell into his hands, little Kevin rushed over and reached out to pat Wang Yi on the back.
Nash on the sidelines quickly gestured to the referee, meaning we had committed a foul.
The referee also blew the whistle immediately, indicating that the guy committed a foul.
However, Wang Yi ignored it.
The next moment he caught the ball in the air, his upper body twisted halfway in the air, facing the frontcourt, and then violently pushed the ball toward the frontcourt.
Little Kevin's shot was a little heavy to begin with, and Wang Yi made such an inhuman operation that he lost his balance in the air and fell directly to the ground.
And because the referee has blown the whistle, the time on the timer stops immediately.
The next moment.
Bang——
The basketball hit the back edge of the basket hard and bounced into the net instantly.
Whoosh!
Three point hit!
The point difference was instantly reduced to 3 points.
The scene fell silent for a moment.
On the contrary, except for Doug, everyone on the Kings bench jumped up.
“Yes!“
"Oh---God!"
"That's crazy!"
Moreover, when Wang Yi just caught the ball, Porter had already committed a foul, and the referee had already blown the whistle, and time had stopped. In other words, the time when the basketball was flying in the air did not count as game time.
So actually the ball only took 0.3 seconds.
In other words, the Kings now have 3.7 seconds left, the score difference is only 3 points, and the Kings still have a chance to make a free throw.
When Steve Nash on the sidelines saw this, he put his head in his hands in disbelief.
My heart was already roaring.
"Oh my God, what the hell did I do?"
If I had known this, it would be better not to foul and just let Wang Yi shoot.
It can consume their time without adding a free throw.
However, at this time, it was too late to regret.
In desperation, he could only use the team's last timeout to make arrangements.
The next ball situation will be very complicated, so he must arrange it well.
During the timeout, he said to the players with a solemn face:
"They may miss the free throw on purpose on the next ball and try to hit a tying three-pointer after grabbing the rebound; or they may make a free throw and immediately commit a foul after we serve."
"So we must be prepared..."
Nash conducted a simple analysis of these two situations and then made arrangements.
On the Kings side, D'Antoni looked at Wang Yi and asked: "How are you going to play next?"
Wang Yi glanced at the timer, then at the scoreboard and said:
"I don't know either. Just adapt to circumstances."
The situation on the court is changing rapidly, and no one knows what will happen in the next second.
But there is one thing Wang Yi is very sure of:
"In short, no matter whether the ball goes in or not, don't foul."
At this time, everyone thought that Wang Yi would probably miss the free throw on purpose, then grab the rebound and try to shoot a tying three-pointer from outside the three-point line.
So they were ready to block Wang Yi's people.
In fact, Wang Yi really doesn’t think so.
He also had a 100% steal chance that was useless.
First make a free throw, then steal, and finally hit a buzzer-beating three-pointer. This is what he has in mind.
At this time, the fans at the scene were no longer excited, the Rockets and Bears were no longer awesome, and the cheerleaders were no longer dancing.
Because today's situation seems a bit familiar.
Tracy McGrady once scored 35 seconds and 13 minutes. Isn't it like today?
It's just that at that time, the Rockets used 35 seconds and 13 minutes to destroy the opponent, but today, the opponent has to use 35 seconds and 13 minutes to destroy their Rockets.
Could it be said that if you come out to hang out, you will have to pay it back sooner or later?
