"Swish!"

A crisp sound, two points hit!

The entire stadium was in an uproar.●⌒,.

Pierce hit a key two-pointer!

Bixtaff hurriedly called for a pause.

At this time, the last 8 seconds left in the game.

Pierce clenched his right hand into a fist, slapped his chest, and then raised it high into the air.

At this time, Tang Shuai rushed over and hugged him directly, followed by Green, and then Jordan Jr. A bunch of people surrounded Pierce in the middle and then pulled him to the bench.

Shuai Tang was extremely excited at this moment. Pierce's performance at critical moments was too stable, especially when he shook Ariza, he was no longer a big heart. It was simply too calm!

It is said that there is an old man in the family, and it is indeed not a false statement!

"We must suppress the next ball when we hit the ball, and we must always be prepared to retreat. Even if the ball cannot be scored, we cannot give them a chance to play a fast break!" The Rockets' player came up and Bixtaff said hurriedly. His judgment on the situation on the court this time was pretty good.

On the other end of the court, Kassel took out the tactical board and said quickly: "Guys, let's cooperate again. This time we set up two pick-and-rolls for Paul so that we can get rid of the Rockets' response."

"Sam, let Don play this ball." As soon as Kassel said this, Pierce suddenly spoke again.

Kassel glanced at him in surprise and said, "Why?"

"Don is very sure, and I can be the team's second offensive choice and attract part of the defensive pressure from the Rockets," Pierce explained.

After saying that, he glanced at Tang Shuai and said, "He also needs such an opportunity to grow up."

After Pierce said that, Tang Shuai couldn't help but tremble.

Players need to accumulate experience and build self-confidence in the game. Playing key balls is the most effective link. I don’t know how many players have started to play in the team because they hit the key balls and their position in the league has risen rapidly.

Those with high popularity include Harden and Ginobili. Those with low popularity, like Sandiata Gaines, who signed the Jazz's short contract with a 10-day short contract, not only made him feel confident because of a three-pointer against the Cavaliers, which also allowed him to obtain a guaranteed contract and stayed in the league for a long time. The situation is similar to the former Rockets' "Pill" Daniels.

These all show the importance of key goals. Tang Shuai also hit key goals several times in the regular season, which also greatly increased his confidence. But now it is the playoffs, and it is such an important occasion. What's more important is that the team is still 2 points behind. If you don't score, it means losing. You can imagine the pressure of this goal and his experience value.

Pierce handed over such an opportunity, definitely not because he was afraid of taking on this responsibility, but as he said, he hoped that Tang Shuai could experience this and then undergo transformation.

"Okay. Paul is right. Don has always been our ace in this game. Paul's threat also made it impossible for the Rockets to defend the same way they did at the opening. This is a good suggestion." Kassel quickly agreed with Pierce's suggestion.

"Thank you, Paul." Tang Shuai cast a hint of gratitude to Pierce.

"Needless to say thank you, this is the responsibility you should bear." Pierce said.

Tang Shuai nodded vigorously. Pierce was right. This was an opportunity, but it also represented a responsibility. Whether he could lead the team to win this game depends on the attack in the next round.

"beep!"

The time for the timeout was soon, and players from both sides walked straight from the bench.

Kassel made adjustments to the lineup, and he replaced Green with Booker. It seemed that he added another insurance to the previous one. This also made the Rockets' defense more afraid.

Sure enough, when he saw Booker appearing, Bickstaff frowned obviously. After all, he was still a little less experienced and did not make tactical arrangements for this aspect when the timeout was suspended.

The Clippers serve in the frontcourt, and the person serving is Brewer.

The existence of Billups made Kassel much stronger than Bikstaff in terms of tactics, and the tactical arrangement of this serve can be seen.

When the two teams met in the third game, Bickstaff called two timeouts in the last moment but failed to send the ball. If it weren't for Harden's final shot with a foul, the Rockets would have been eliminated at this time.

In contrast, Kassel's deployment this time was much more perfect. Booker, Pierce and Jordan Jr. were all pick-and-roll at the free throw line. When the referee whistle sounded, Pierce ran out first and reached out to make the move to ask for the ball.

At this moment, Ariza hurriedly ran up. Pierce hit the key ball in the last round, and they couldn't just let it go.

At this moment, Booker and Shuai Tang ran in two directions at the same time. The direction of Booker was at the right wing baseline, which was exactly the bottom corner of the side of Brewer's serve.

This time, Harden had to follow him. After all, Booker's three-point shooting percentage in the previous series was quite considerable. Even in the regular season game against the Warriors, Kassel really arranged for Booker to shoot a key three-pointer, so they didn't dare to let it go.

Pierce and Booker took away two defenses, and it seemed quite easy for Tang Shuai to run outside the three-point line. Jordan even blocked Beverly, who was guarding him.

He saw Beverly following far away and stopped at the three-point line.

Brewer, who served, avoided Morris who was constantly disturbing him, and gave the ball to Shuai Tang with a straight pass.

When Tang Shuai received the ball, the timer on the sidelines moved.

7 seconds.

After Beverly was blocked by Jordan Jr., he ran out and pulled him away more than a meter away from Shuai Tang.

When Tang Shuai saw this, he directly made a fake move of a three-pointer.

Beverly jumped up suddenly. The Rockets' best result is to defend against the ball, but if they can't defend, they would rather give two points than make you three-pointers, so Beverly saved this time very firmly.

Tang Shuai was so happy that Beverly was directly fired, and his tactics were completely useless.

But just when he was about to do this, he realized that it was not possible. Although Beverly was fierce in his pounce, his feet did not mean to leave the ground, so it was almost impossible to fly.

All this happened between lightning and flint. After realizing that the point could not fly, he suddenly changed direction to the right, and then accelerated and broke through.

Although Beverly's feet were not off the ground, his center of gravity was rushing forward. He couldn't do it if he wanted to retract, so he could only watch Tang Shuai rubbed his body and rushed into the inside line again.

But he did not give up. He was slower and turned around and chased back. At this time, Howard was in the interior, and he still had a chance to double-team.

Jordan Jr. was standing on the left side of the basket at this time. His purpose was to get Howard out, but in fact Howard did not follow him. Jordan Jr. did not have the ability to get a mid-range distance. There was no offensive threat except to grab rebounds.

In fact, Ariza also went to Tang Shuai at this time, and three people were booked one by one, which clearly showed that he would not give him a chance.

Shuai Tang rushed to the basket with a quick whip. Seeing Howard standing in the inside, he suddenly turned his head to the left.

Pierce happened to run to the left at this time.

This movement was very fast, but he did not escape Bickstaff's eyes. When he saw that Ariza did not follow Pierce, he jumped up in a hurry: "Paul! Pay attention to Paul!"

When he shouted, Beverly and Howard didn't feel like turning to Pierce.

Pierce made a move to reach out to catch the ball.

At this time, Tang Shuai pulled the ball behind with his right hand.

Passing the ball behind the back!

A thought flashed through the minds of Howard, Ariza and Beverly. This ball was the same as before. I still have to give it to Pierce!

"Paul!" Bixtaff jumped up from the sidelines and shouted.

Ariza and Beverly turned around and rushed over.

But at this moment, Tang Shuai's right hand suddenly pulled back.

The scene was in an uproar!

Fake fax!

Iverson's classic action!

Beverly and Ariza turned around and saw this scene too late. Their body center of gravity could not be restrained at all, so they could only watch Tang Shuai make a layup.

There are 3 seconds left in the game!

However, the Rockets' defensive formation has not been completely lost, and Howard is still in front of Tang Shuai.

Tang Shuai had no choice at all. He gritted his teeth and directly hit Howard.

Before his body was about to touch, he then used Weiping Bryant hook bag.

A moving hook hand was thrown lightly from Tang Shuai's hand.

The basketball drew a small parabola in the air and fell straight towards the net bag.

A hint of joy appeared in his eyes. This ball was about to enter!

"Bang!"

Before he could see the ball enter, he and Howard collided heavily, and then they were knocked back and flew backwards.

"Swish!"

Basketball hollow into the net!

The ball enters!

93 draw!

"beep!"

The referee's whistle rang.

Howard blocks the foul!

There are 1.2 seconds left in the game!

Howard was stunned, and Bickstaff also jumped up suddenly. The fans on the scene were even more crazy, and the referee actually whistled at the last moment!

Generally speaking, the referee will choose to hand over the outcome of the game to the players and will not make a penalty. Even if the foul is obvious, it just happened. After giving Harden almost a free throw for the entire game, he actually blew a foul that was absolutely deadly to the Rockets in the last 1.2 seconds!

The scene followed by a flood of booing.

The referee who called the referee was a little weak, but the referee was completely indifferent at this moment.

"Black whistle! Black whistle!"

The boos at the scene have turned into scolding everywhere.

The referee was still indifferent because his name was Joey Crawford, one of the oldest referees in NBA.

At this time, Tang Shuai stood up with the help of Brewer and Booker. This time he had a direct head-on collision with Howard, which was much more fierce than the previous side collision. Even if he heard the foul, he didn't have the strength to stand up. Until he was finally helped up, he recovered.
Chapter completed!
