Super All-around Point Guard

Chapter 570 Got the match point!

Xie Chen passed a pass that might become the best assist in his career. During the timeout, Xie Chen, like James, grabbed the coach's tactical board and drew his own tactics for the first time. In this tactic, Xie Chen was originally going to Passed to Ray Allen, who completed a three-pointer from the bottom corner.

In order to give Ray Allen a chance to take action, Xie Chen had to attract his defender away. This time it was James who was guarding Ray Allen. Xie Chen used a right-hand dribble in front of James to fool him.

James never expected that Xie Chen would use his left hand and pass the ball without looking behind the ball. James only noticed Anthony, and he was already preparing to pounce on Anthony.

Someone once praised Xie Chen as a "magician". This praise seemed well-deserved at this moment. Xie Chen's play with the ball was so ghostly and surprising that no one would have guessed that the ball would be sent to Ray Allen's hands. inside.

Ray Allen did not always stand at the three-point line in the corner, but was a few steps forward, and his position was somewhat higher. When Xie Chen hit the ground and passed the ball, Ray Allen stepped back. It seems that it is just a few simple steps back. These few steps reflect Ray Allen's irreplaceable value.

Ray Allen is 40 years old this year. He has played basketball for so many years that he doesn’t even need to look down to know where he is. He has not trained specifically. He relies solely on his feelings over the years. Outside the scoring line, he quickly stopped and caught the basketball.

Junzi Lei once again used the most standard shooting posture to take off! Shoot the basket!

This is another glorious moment in his career!

Ray Allen didn't think about anything and shot the ball without any distractions. James pounced hard, but it was too late.

Nearly 20,000 people at the scene were all staring at the ball shot by Ray Allen. Xie Chen never knew that the ball shot from the three-point line to the basket could be so slow!

I don’t feel like shooting by myself. It’s too painful to watch others shoot. Xie Chen has done everything he can. He drew all the firepower away and created opportunities for Ray Allen. If Ray Allen misses the shot, With this goal, they will lose this battle at Tianwang Mountain. Xie Chen will have to fight to save the next game and fight for the tiebreaker. Even if there is a chance for the tiebreaker, it will be at the Cavaliers' home court. Xie Chen will have to fight for the tiebreaker again. After two games, the probability of winning is still low.

"We must enter!" Xie Chen shouted secretly.

James, who was flying towards Ray Allen, turned his head to look at the basket while he was in the air. He was so interested in knowing the result that he forgot that he would lose his balance and fall if he jumped like this.

Uh-huh!

Beep!

As the basketball hit the net, the buzzer sounded.

Overtime! The Knicks took the game into overtime!

At the same time, James fell heavily to the ground and fell in front of Ray Allen.

"yeah!"

All the Knicks players, including the coaching staff, jumped up! The 40-year-old veteran made the most crucial shot!

"Ray Allen! Three-point equalizer! Oh my god, this goal is exactly the same as the goal that equalized the Spurs during the Heat! The greatest equalizer in history, Ray Allen actually performed it twice by himself!" Yang Jian was excited.

Yang Yi couldn't help but get excited after seeing it: "This is called seeing the most beautiful rainbow in the deepest despair! Ray Allen was born to equalize the ball! This is the value of Ray Allen! Back off, take off , shooting the basket, everything is very similar to the one when Ray Allen hit the Spurs. However, the happiest person when Ray Allen hit the equalizer was James, but today, James is probably the saddest one. .”

Ray Allen's equalizing three-pointer in Game 6 of the 2013 Finals is considered the greatest equalizing goal in history. It is not an exaggeration to say this, because at that time the Heat had no way out and were trailing 2:3. , if you lose, you will be eliminated directly!

Moreover, Ray Allen was not standing outside the three-point line at the time. He received the ball and stepped back while shooting, relying entirely on his instinct for the basket to do these things.

Another thing that made that game great was that they went on to win a championship.

Many people say that one of the reasons why James has two championships is definitely thanks to Ray Allen. Without Ray Allen's legendary goal, James would have lost all three times he faced the Spurs in the Finals, and won one championship. You can't get them all. The ring you got from defeating the young Thunder is obviously not as valuable as the one you got from defeating the old Spurs.

When Ray Allen made that shot, James was really the happiest, but now...

"Hey, why is James still lying on the ground and can't get up? Is he okay?" When the Knicks players celebrated joyfully on the court, no one noticed that James was still lying on the ground, lying next to Ray Allen who had just hit a three-pointer. Location.

Kevin Love was standing next to him, but when he called him, he didn't agree at all. Love noticed that James' right hand was clenched tightly.

"Ray Allen! God asked you to give me a three-pointer three years ago to help me win the championship. Today, does he want me to give it back?!" James pounded the floor hard. I don’t want to accept this result!

Why? He could obviously win this game and get the match point, so why did it have to be the shot made by Ray Allen, whom James cares about most?

Xie Chen looked at James's reaction and thought to himself: "I guessed it right. Ray Allen hit him much harder than me."

At this moment, everyone in the Spurs watching the ball was amazed. Most of them had experienced the power of Ray Allen's equalizer.

Popovich still felt heartbroken when he thought about that moment three years ago. He looked at James on the screen and said to everyone: "James once personally recruited Ray Allen, hoping that he could join the Cavaliers. At that time, I also thought that Ray Allen was either If he doesn’t come back, he will choose the Cavaliers when he comes back. Unexpectedly, he chose Xie’s Knicks. Sometimes we have to believe in fate. If Ray Allen went to the Cavaliers at that time, maybe the Cavaliers would be sure of victory now.”

Parker is still worried about that ball and believes that James and the others should not have won the championship that year. The championship should belong to them: "The situation has changed. I believe James never thought that he would be shot by Ray Allen. Score a goal."

Although it is just an equalizer and the two sides have to play overtime, it is still uncertain who will win or lose, but the Knicks are lucky to be able to climb up the edge of the cliff. Next, they will win this victory in one go. The knight, who was originally confident of victory, was severely hit.

Xie Chen has played two games in a row, and now he has to play overtime. This is a great test for Xie Chen's physical strength. He has to find a way to defeat the opponent in the first overtime. If there is a second overtime, In the third overtime, Xie Chen couldn't hold on anymore.

In the overtime, Xie Chen's fatigue and inability to concentrate were quickly exposed. First, Xie Chen got two free throws, but rarely missed both free throws. This shocked James and started talking. They speculated whether Xie Chen was under the influence of physical strength, but something happened later that completely confirmed their thoughts.

One of Xie Chen's dribbles was intercepted by Irving! Xie Chen and Irving are both masters of dribbling. If they don't make mistakes, there is basically no possibility of their opponents stealing the ball, but this time an exception occurred.

Irving himself did not expect that he could steal the ball from Xie Chen. This steal was just an instinctive reaction. After the interception, Irving quickly made the move, and Xie Chen also caught up. Everyone thought that Xie Chen would take revenge by blocking Irving this time, but In fact, Xie Chen gave up after a few steps.

"Xie Chen seems to be really tired. Just like before, if the ball was intercepted, he would rush forward like crazy to get the ball back. Now it feels like Xie Chen's legs can no longer exert their strength. Especially his mental state is very worrying. ." Yang Jiandao.

Yang Yi also nodded: "Missing two free throws plus one mistake, this is by no means Xie Chen's normal performance, but it also reflects the fierce confrontation in the Eastern Conference finals. In overtime, almost everyone was Being exhausted, it depends on who can dominate the game at this time. James's physical fitness seems to be okay, but the Knicks may have to rely on Anthony or Ray Allen."

Ray Allen hit perhaps the second greatest goal of his career. How could Xie Chen let the team lose in overtime!

The Cavaliers see that Xie Chen is now suffering from physical problems and no longer use too strong defense as before. They believe that the Knicks' offense should be carried out by others, such as Anthony and Ray Allen, and this It also gave Xie Chen a chance to take action.

If only one person were to defend Xie Chen, Xie Chen would definitely be able to score in various ways.

Xie Chen turned his back to JR Smith and asked for the ball. When the ball reached Xie Chen's hands, the Knicks fans couldn't help but feel worried. They doubted whether Xie Chen still had the ability to end the game.

Every goal in overtime is important. Both sides consume a lot of energy, and it is no longer easy to score goals. However, the Cavaliers have only scored two points. This is not because of their physical energy consumption, but because of dribbling. Unfortunately, James' two mid-range shots had already entered the basket and slipped out, and Tristan Thompson's putback dunk also missed.

This makes them feel that since Ray Allen hit that magical equalizer, luck is no longer on their side.

Xie Chen broke through to the right, and after two steps, he made a fadeaway jumper!

"He actually used such a difficult method of attack!"

Xie Chen was playing hard, and he was using his body and talent to beat his opponent. But now that Xie Chen is so tired, is it okay to still use such a difficult move as a fadeaway jumper?

The posture is still picturesque, and the basketball still slides into the basket according to the designated arc!

"The goal is scored! This goal is so crucial! I didn't expect Xie Chen to step up and help the team!" Yang Jian was excited.

Xie Chen will hit too many goals in every game, but only in this situation where he is not optimistic in advance, the goals he hits will make everyone excited.

When the Cavaliers attacked, James still missed the layup, and Xie Chen responded with a fadeaway jumper!

Two consecutive fallback hits!

Neither commentator knew what to say!

Is this a normal behavior? With so much physical exertion, can he still score two difficult goals in a row?

These two goals almost declared the Cavaliers' defeat!

The time left became less and less, from minutes to tens of seconds. James looked at the lagging score and panicked for the first time.

This is the Cavaliers' home court. If James cannot keep his home court, how can James guarantee victory when it comes to Xie Chen's home court?

If Xie Chen gets the match point, James can't imagine what the consequences will be!

The impatient James also rarely lost his rationality. He no longer believed in his teammates. He wanted to recover the score personally, but in exchange he failed again and again.

until the game officially ends.

The Knicks narrowly defeated the Cavaliers with three points and won the battle at Tianwang Mountain, turning the series score into 3:2. The next game will be at the home court of the New York Knicks!

"Won!"

Ray Allen, Anthony, and Xie Chen walked together and hugged each other excitedly. They won Tianwang Mountain! They only need to win one more game to advance to the finals!

"The finals!" At this moment, each of them was thinking about the finals!

"It's only one step away. After suffering in the league for so many years, now I'm only one step away from entering the finals!" Anthony wanted to shout excitedly, but unfortunately this is not the home court. There is still one game left. He hopes that next time The scene is in New York, God can give him the opportunity to scream like crazy!

Ray Allen also happily high-fived Xie Chen. Ray Allen said to Xie Chen: "Your last two fadeaway jumpers were so amazing! Believe me, someone who played against Michael Jordan during the Bulls era, when I When I entered the league in my first year, I saw the most powerful Bull and the greatest Jordan. I was impressed by his fadeaway jumper. And today, my last year in this league, I saw someone even better than him. Tough and amazing guy!”

Xie Chen also smiled and thanked Ray Allen: "It wasn't your three-pointer, and I didn't have the opportunity to make those two fadeaway jumpers. Allen, believe me, after the next game, we will enter the finals!"

Xie Chen and Ray Allen's hands held each other tightly again.

At this moment, the entire Warriors team and the Spurs team were also having a heated discussion.

Draymond Green couldn't believe it: "It was the Knicks who got the match point? I can't believe that the next game will be at home in New York. Is James okay? Can he have a chance to make a comeback?"

Coach Kerr smiled and said: "If the Knicks are behind now, I think Xie Chen may let the game drag into the seventh game, because he proved that he has this ability last year, but now I am not optimistic about the Cavaliers. Even if they have greater strength."

Stephen Curry smiled slightly: "Is that so? Our opponent in the finals is the Knicks. Isn't that great? Should we think about whether we can win the Knicks in four games or play five games? I think we should play five games. , I love winning at home.”

After Curry said this, everyone laughed, not out of ridicule at Curry's arrogance, but in recognition of his ridicule to his opponents.

Even if they win against the Cavaliers, there will still be a more formidable opponent waiting for them in front of the Knicks...
