Reborn in the 96 golden generation

Chapter 619 Braking with static
Yao Ming played a big Z in a low-post single, turned around continuously with his back, and gradually approached the basket.

Driven by Zhou Yu, Yao Ming's low-post singles skills have improved rapidly, not only with solid footwork, but also with flexible turns.

Although Big Z was a little clumsy, he accurately judged the timing of Yao Ming's shot this time, and used a powerful block to interfere with Yao Ming's turnaround jumper.

Yao Ming's shot finally bounced out of the basket, Duncan grabbed the rebound, and the Cavaliers turned from defense to offense.

As the Lakers retreated in time, the two sides switched to a positional battle.

The ball was quickly transferred to Duncan's hands. Duncan, who had held back for a long time, could be described as heroic, and immediately launched a crazy attack on Zhou Yu.

The seemingly calm "Stone Buddha" is not calm now, because the golden championship trophy is in front of him, prompting him to exert his prehistoric power.

After a few pushes from the back, Duncan suddenly turned around and slid to the baseline, pushing Zhou Yu away and going deep into the basket.

Facing Zhou Yu and Yao Ming's "twin towers" defense, Duncan didn't choose to pass the ball, but roared and rose from the ground. Not only did he hit the board, but he also caused a foul by Yao Ming and an additional free throw.

With Duncan's extra penalty hit steadily, the score between the two sides was rewritten to "66:65", and the Cavaliers were only one point behind the Lakers.

Seeing the Cavaliers quickly catching up to the score, Zhou Yu was very anxious, but the severe exhaustion of his physical strength prompted him to choose COSCO to solve the problem as much as possible.

At this time, Zhang Jinsong, Li Nan, and Fisher's breakthrough with the ball is extremely important. If they can't get into the inside of the Cavaliers for a long time, it will be difficult for Zhou Yu to find a good shot.

Sadly, although the Cavaliers have mediocre defensive ability, their individual defensive ability is strong enough. The outside "iron triangle" such as Zhang Jinsong has been unable to break through the Cavaliers' outer defense.

In desperation, Zhou Yu had no choice but to face Duncan's strict defense and choose to forcibly shoot.

After a few consecutive dribbles under the crotch, followed by a quick start to accelerate and then a sudden stop to dodge a jump shot, Zhou Yu's technical movements were very coherent, but he failed to fool Duncan's defense, and was blocked by Duncan in time at the moment of his shot.

Fortunately, Zhou Yu took some lean back when shooting, which barely avoided Duncan's block, and shot the ball smoothly when he could hardly see the basket.

After a crisp sound of "唰", Zhou Yu's mid-range shot made a successful hit!
This goal can be said to boost morale, and it also greatly increased Zhou Yu's confidence.

"68:65", the Lakers led the Cavaliers by three points and breathed a sigh of relief.

Duncan was very annoyed at not being able to defend Zhou Yu's shot. After being annoyed, he immediately continued to play Zhou Yu in a low position.

The two collided fiercely near the three-second zone. Duncan first made a powerful back attack, and then turned to a face-up attack, using a change of direction dribble to catch flowers and steadily advance to the basket.

Zhou Yu could clearly feel that Duncan was deliberately using this one-on-one method to continue to consume his physical strength. If this continues, even if Zhou Yu is covered in iron, it is estimated that it will be difficult for him to last until the end of the fourth quarter.

But at this moment, Zhou Yu could only bite the bullet and hold on, because he was the only one in the team who could better restrain Duncan's inside attack.

Suddenly, Duncan used his strong body flexibility to get under Zhou Yu's armpit, and then made a low-handed layup.

Zhou Yu, who was out of position, could do nothing about this ball. Fortunately, Yao Ming came to help defend in time and rewarded Duncan with a solid side cap, helping the Lakers resolve the crisis.

Fisher grabbed the ball with quick eyes and hands, and then passed the ball to Zhang Jinsong with a precise long pass.

Facing Hughes, who was slightly thinner, Zhang Jin let go of his full power and quickly advanced with the ball.

The entire Cavaliers team never expected that Zhang Jinsong, who had average dribbling skills, dared to hold the ball all the way to the penalty area. Panicked, he watched Zhang Jinsong layup easily!
"70:65", the Lakers lead the Cavaliers by five points.

As the Lakers extended their lead, the Cavaliers' mentality shifted subtly.

In a new round of offense, the Cavaliers no longer focused on Duncan, and Nash began to go crazy, dribbling continuously under the crotch near the top of the arc, and suddenly made a three-pointer. The basketball crossed a beautiful arc and fell straight to basket.

Nash was obviously in a hurry with this ball, but it had a miraculous effect. The basketball hit the net with a crisp sound!
"70:68", the Cavaliers narrowed the point difference to two points.

In the next round of the Lakers' offense, Zhou Yu had to choose to continue "paddling to maintain health" in order to save his energy. After handing over the possession of the ball to Fisher, he simply stood aside and did not move much.

Although Zhou Yu was basically in a static state, Duncan did not dare to be paralyzed and relax. After all, Zhou Yu's shooting level is top-notch even among guards.

After Zhou Yu was silent, Fisher decisively passed the ball to Yao Ming inside.

Yao Ming played the big Z in the low post, but the effect was not very good. He has not been able to get closer to the basket, and he has not been able to shake out a better shooting space.

In desperation, Yao Ming made a sideways shot with a small hook. Although he escaped Big Z's defense, the basketball finally bounced out of the basket.

The rebound was grabbed by James, and the Cavaliers immediately turned from defense to offense.

James did not advance quickly with the ball, but took the ball through the half court calmly, waiting for his teammates to settle.

It didn't take long for James to use a high screen from Hughes, move the ball laterally, and put on a breakthrough posture.

Somewhat unexpectedly, at such a critical moment, James played more decisively, and even made a direct shot near the free throw line.

After a crisp sound of "swish", James made a steady mid-range shot!

"70:70", the Cavaliers finally tied the score, and the two sides returned to the same starting line.

At this time, there are only 11.6 seconds left before the end of the third quarter.

After the ball passed halftime, the Lakers had no choice but to take the shot as soon as possible. Zhou Yu's performance was quite annoying, and he just looked straight at Duncan without moving.

Although Duncan was extremely angry, it was inconvenient to express it immediately. After all, he was known as the "Stone Buddha", and composure was a must, but his facial muscles began to twitch slightly.

With Li Nan's three-pointer, the third quarter of the match between the two sides officially ended, and the score was fixed at "70:70".

After a short break between the quarters, the fourth quarter, which determines the outcome, officially begins.

In the first half of the fourth quarter, the two sides still played very anxiously, but the shooting percentage plummeted, basically reaching the state of 3 of 1 shots.

In order to fully win the rest time, Zhou Yu still mentioned the high position and kept the brakes. Sadly, Duncan still had to defend, because he tried to let go of Zhou Yu during the period, but after getting the ball, Zhou Yu could really make a shot. , making Duncan overwhelmed with sorrow.

With 5 minutes and 03 seconds left before the end of the game, the score between the two sides was rewritten to "83:82", and the Cavaliers led the Lakers by one point.

The Lakers' defense during this period was quite good, especially Zhou Yu, who basically prevented Duncan from scoring much.

At this time, Zhou Yu's physical strength has almost recovered, and he is ready to take over the game.

After the ball passed halftime, Zhou Yu fell to the low post to get the ball and singled Duncan face-to-face.

Continuous probing steps followed by continuous shooting shakes, Zhou Yu's series of fake moves made Duncan a little confused. I have seen many fake moves, but I have never seen so many fake moves in a row like Zhou Yu.

In the next second, Zhou Yu shot a jumper directly under Duncan's nose, and the basketball crossed a beautiful arc and hit the net with a crisp sound!
"84:83", the Lakers overtook the Cavaliers by one point.

Unwilling, Duncan was about to retaliate with a signature mid-range shot, but sadly, his intention was seen through by Zhou Yu in advance, and the moment he took off the shot, he was blocked by Zhou Yu.

James grabbed the ball with quick eyes and hands, and then quickly cut to the basket with the ball, intending to use his good layup to solve the battle.
