Chapter 140
【140】Will Su Mo win the game?
After the timeout, the game continues.
The game enters the last 2 minutes, and the pressure is basically on the Spurs.
Warriors (92): (84) Spurs.
The Spurs took the lead in attacking. Parker and Duncan set a pick-and-roll in the frontcourt. After breaking through and being double-teamed, he passed the ball back to Duncan, who was preparing to shoot from outside the three-point line.
""Stone Buddha" is going to shoot a three-pointer?
Su Mo did not dare to take it lightly and hurriedly went up to prepare for interference.
However... in the next moment, Su Mo was suddenly shocked.
Duncan faked a shot and passed the ball to Ginobili outside the three-point line in the bottom corner.
The moment Ginobili received the ball, Jackson immediately rushed up.
But he did not beat Ginobili's shot.
With a lightning shot, 0 angle, the ball was shot directly.
The eyes of tens of thousands of spectators were attracted by Ginobili's shot at this moment, and Mike Brin and Van Gundy on the commentary desk also held their breath.
The next moment
"Swish!
The basketball went into the net, an arrow pierced his heart.
"Ginobili, Manu Ginobili, at the critical moment, the person who stood up was indeed Ginobili!"
"This shot really makes people feel excited. As expected, facing a desperate situation, the"demon sword" was decisively unsheathed and no one could stop it!"
The home fans cheered, looking forward to their own scoring frenzy.
However, most Spurs fans were still full of trepidation. After all, after Manu's extreme three-pointer, the team was still 5 points behind the Warriors.
The ball possession changed, and the Warriors attacked.
Su Mo held the ball in the frontcourt, passed the defense directly and came to the three-point line in the left corner. In the shocked eyes of everyone, he decisively shot the ball.
It was also an extreme three-pointer shot with a 0-angle angle.
Mike Brin and Van Gundy on the commentary desk exclaimed
"What was Su trying to do? Was he going to return the favor to Manu in the same position? Oh my god, this was too crazy. Only he could think of and do this!"
"Let's take a look at the result of this ball first. After all, Su Mo hit a three-pointer from a negative angle in the bottom corner facing Kobe, so... oh, what a pity that it missed!"
Under the basket, Duncan protected the defensive rebound and passed the ball directly to Ginobili who was running by him.
The latter accelerated and broke through, directly attacking the frontcourt. Facing the Warriors' return defense, he did not slow down, and broke through like a lightning snake, and directly entered the penalty area for a layup.
""Swish!" Manu scored five points in a row. The score difference was instantly reduced to only 3 points. The home fans went crazy. The Warriors fans began to panic.
"In desperate situations, the 'demon sword' is indeed worthy of its reputation. Ginobili's ability and big heart at critical moments are definitely top-notch in the league!"
"The NBA owes Ginobili a Finals MVP. I hope the team can regroup this year and knock the Lakers off their perch!"
"To be honest, this year is a bit uncertain, after all, this year's finals is an even-numbered year!"
"The goal is to break the odd-year multi-management law and tell the entire league that the Spurs are unstoppable!"
"Well, let's beat the Warriors first, we are still three points behind!"
On the court, there was only 1 minute and 8 seconds left in the game.
Su Mo encountered the Spurs' tight defense in the frontcourt, and forced a layup, but unfortunately he missed.
Duncan grabbed the rebound again.
At the critical moment, the"demon sword" was unsheathed again.
Ginobili jumped up and shot directly from one step outside the front arc, and the ball whizzed towards the basket.
"Swish!
Another three-pointer
"Oh my God, magical Manu, magical Ginobili, the Spurs miraculously tied the score in just one minute!"
"We knew the Spurs had the strength to fill the 8-point gap, but we didn't expect that it would only take one minute. At the critical moment, Ginobili was really amazing!"
Warriors coach Don Nelson was so scared that he called a timeout.
He defended Parker and tried to limit Duncan, but he didn't expect that he would ignore Mano Ginobili in the end.
Nelson looked helpless.
The great Spurs team really has the strength to be hard to defend against.
"GDP"combination, a powerful combination close to perfection.
The Spurs were able to catch up with the score in one minute. In addition to Ginobili's magical operation of scoring 8 points in a row, Su Mo's failure to score twice in a row on the offensive end also had a lot of responsibility.
However, Nelson did not mean to blame Su Mo at all. After all, he had worked hard enough.
It was amazing that he could still break through in the face of such a crazy double-teaming by the Spurs at a critical moment.
As for whether Su Mo should choose to attack personally or pass to an open teammate under this degree of double-teaming, Nelson did not speak directly. He believed that Su Mo had a scale in his heart.
Now Nelson has unconditionally believed in Su Mo, and no matter what choice he makes, he will be understood.
The game started again soon, in the last 46 seconds.
Su Mo withstood the huge pressure and boos from the home court, and hit a difficult fadeaway jump shot on the offensive end.
"Swish!
The Warriors once again took a 2-point lead.
"At the critical moment, Su Mo is still strong. He may not score once or twice, but he can still explode at any time!"
"That's natural. As long as the defense is a little lax, Su Mo will immediately come out and punish the opponent!"
Old man Popovich also called a short timeout to arrange an attack at a critical moment.
Obviously, the core of this offensive tactic is still Ginobili.
Ginobili's big heart at the critical moment is unmatched by other Spurs players.
Even Duncan has to be a supporting role at the critical moment.
The short timeout ended quickly, and the Spurs sent a sideline ball in the frontcourt.
Ginobili received the serve secretly through his teammates' off-ball screen and organized the last attack.
Su Mo took the lead and volunteered to defend Ginobili at the critical moment. Ginobili asked for a screen, passed Su Mo with a pick-and-roll, and went straight to the basket.
Su Mo followed him closely, ready to block the shot from behind at any time. At the critical moment, Ginobili faked a shot and passed the ball directly to George Hill outside the three-point line behind him.
The lightning-fast pass made it difficult for the Warriors players to defend.
At the most tense moment, George Hill withstood the pressure and decisively shot an open three-pointer from the outside.
The basketball flew through the air, attracting the nervous eyes of tens of thousands of fans.
At this moment, the whole stadium fell silent.
""Swish!"
The basketball went into the net, a three-pointer was made, and the Spurs took the lead by one point.
There were only 12 seconds left.
The Warriors immediately called a timeout.
"Magical Manu, this pass was so weird, and George did not disappoint his teammate's quick pass!"
"In the last 12 seconds, if the Warriors want to win, they may have to make a buzzer beater!"
Mike Breen and Van Gundy looked at each other.
