In the blink of an eye, the Blazers made a fast break.
100:95, leading by 5 points.
Sima Weiwei wanted to say something, but closed his mouth when he finished.
What else could he say?
In fact, everyone has done a good job. Whether it is Duncan on the inside or Ginobili's offensive choices on the outside, there is no problem. The problem is that guy...
Why is his defense so strong?
Parker advanced to the frontcourt again, passed it to Ginobili, and followed up with Lillard himself to prevent the Blazers from being caught off guard by a fast break.
As soon as Ginobili brought the ball to the free throw line, Batum, who was closest to him, dropped Leonard and rushed towards him.
A second later, Ginobili was double-teamed.
Immediately afterwards, Matthews on the other side also rushed forward.
The three men immediately surrounded Ginobili.
"Pass the ball!"
Sima Weiqi screamed next to him.
Ginobili turned around and was about to pass the ball when a man appeared from behind and snatched the ball away from him.
A naked robbery!
"yeah!"
The Trail Blazers commentator roared excitedly. Amid the cheers of the fans in the audience, he continued to roar: "Steal... a robbing steal from Wang! Fast break, we have to fast break! Go ahead!!!"
"The thugs are coming! The thugs..."
Ginobili became anxious on the spot and yelled at the linesman while returning to defense.
The referee ignored him. From his perspective, he could not see the entire steal process. If he dared to judge the thug at this time, he would be drowned in the spit of the fans in the audience.
Lillard went crazy after receiving the ball. Although he didn't rest for a minute from start to finish tonight, he has already shown his style as an iron man in the future league. Parker could not keep up and finally hit a layup and sent Wang Zelin another one.
assists.
At 102:95, the situation on the field changed dramatically, and the Spurs were almost 10 points behind.
"Beep!"
The referee blew the whistle and the Spurs called a timeout.
Starting from Ginobili's successful three-point foul, the Spurs' offense ushered in a stagnation for more than two minutes, the real darkest moment!
On the sidelines, looking at the fans beside him, Simavici felt a sense of powerlessness.
There is obviously nothing wrong, so why are we so far behind?
Ginobili returned to the bench with his head drooped, afraid of the way he would look at Simavici in the future.
During the period when the offense stops, he, who is the dual core of organization and offense, must bear the greatest responsibility.
In sports competitions, food is the original sin!
Why didn't he score those damn goals?
"Pioneers~must win!"
"Trailblazers must win"
"..."
Slowly, the atmosphere in the Rose Garden Arena began to heat up.
The reason is No. 36 of the Trail Blazers. Their defense in these few rounds can be called crazy.
What is Ginobili? What is the recognized historical equivalent of Tim Duncan? What GDP combination?
At this moment, they are all reduced to ordinary characters!
No matter who dares to appear in the paint, they can't escape the absolute defense of Trail Blazers No. 36. To put it bluntly, he is the biggest factor that causes all members of the Spurs to become autistic.
Another whistle sounded.
The Spurs players came to their senses and returned to the game with numb eyes.
During the timeout, Simavici wanted to adjust the team's offensive status, but no matter how clever his tactics were, as long as he shot inside, he still could not escape bad luck.
Since entering the final quarter, Trail Blazers No. 36 seems to have changed into a different person, becoming extremely cruel, as if God has descended, no, it should be the devil Satan crawling back to the world from hell.
In such a state, how can an ordinary person challenge it?
When Wang Zelin sent his 9th block of the game, Sima Weiwei was completely dumbfounded. Such blocking firepower made him think that he was dreaming.
It’s so unreal!
Who was the last guy to block 10 shots in a single playoff game?
This guy is not the shot-blocking king?
There is no doubt that Wang Zelin's game tonight completely conquered everyone who watched the game.
No. 36 of the Trail Blazers definitely has the potential to become the league's shot-blocking leader.
He will surely become the shot-blocking king in the near future!
Can he still win? Simavici's confidence began to waver.
Because the Oriental in front of me is like crazy, such a talent in blocking shots is too terrifying!
Do you want to move the firepower outward?
No, if this is really done, the first thing that will be disrupted is not the Trail Blazers' rhythm, but the Spurs' own game rhythm.
Since the day Simavici coached the Spurs, the rhythm of the game has always been what he values most.
Facts have proved that thanks to this coaching philosophy, the Spurs have been the most stable team in the NBA since the late 1990s, and the safety can boldly and confidently remove one of them.
Excluding a few shortened seasons, the Spurs generally win 50 games in a normal season, which is enough to shock the world.
Unfortunately, success is stable and failure is stable!
It is such a team, but there is a fatal obstacle, which is to kill the stars who are easily exposed.
Since stability has been chosen, this means that the key point of the Spurs' defense is to maintain the opponent's offensive firepower within a controllable range.
But there are uncontrollable factors in the league, or some unreasonable and unreasonable existences. Facing such guys, the Spurs often lose unjustly!
After traveling a hundred miles and a half, someone kicked me out at the last moment!
In the past, there were offensive monsters like Tracy McGrady and Kobe Bryant.
Today, No. 36 of the Trail Blazers has also transformed into a completely unreasonable guy. Different from the offensive maniac, he is at the other extreme...a dominant under the basket on the defensive end!
"Gift Crab! Wang blocked another one, God! His blocks tonight were in double figures. He is simply a mythical giant that no mortal can challenge in his lifetime. He alone supports the Trail Blazers' inside line. He is
The undisputed king of the rose garden!!!”
Clifford Robinson screamed into the commentary microphone in front of him regardless of his image.
He felt like he was so close to a miracle for the first time in his life!
He was thankful that he accepted the invitation to be the special guest tonight!
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! No one expected that the Spurs, who were considered to be a determined team and would surely sweep the ordinary playoffs, could stage such a shocking reversal.
.
Seeing that the Trail Blazers further widened the score difference, the Spurs gradually became impatient. However, due to the number 36 of the Trail Blazers, few people are now thinking about dunking or layups under the basket.
Who doesn't know the truth that "the closer you are to the basket, the higher your shooting percentage", but the problem is that the truth is often in the hands of a few people.
Tonight, Trail Blazers No. 36 is the truth!
Ginobili and Parker, two breakthrough masters, had tried before, but without exception, they were all cruelly rejected by the Trail Blazers' No. 36.
In this case, human nature is to seek advantages and avoid disadvantages. When knowing that inside attack is not advisable, it is better to shoot from outside.
By the way, everyone feels good!
What if, everyone can invest!
just in case,……
Unfortunately, there is no such thing as a contingency.
As the Spurs took more and more outside shots, a feast of iron was staged that made Trail Blazers fans happy.
The sound of hammering, which is usually very boring, is like a celestial music at this moment.
The Spurs' mentality has finally collapsed!
At 10 minutes and 53 seconds into the final quarter, Sima Weijie looked up at the scoreboard... 112:98!
As if by God's will, the Spurs faced an embarrassing situation from leading by 14 points to falling behind by 14 points.
"Hit, beat, beat, I'm beating you! I don't even look at what kind of monster is on the other side, I..."
Sima Wei's face was as black as iron, but he was cursing in his heart.
The Blazers attack again.
Although Wang Zelin's inside attack failed, he caused Duncan a defensive foul.
Go to the free throw line and make 2 free throws.
"MVP!"
"MVP!"
"MVP..."
When he came to the free throw line, the crowd remembered the shouts of "MVP" and intensified. In the end, tens of thousands of fans in the audience cheered for the MVP in their hearts in this way.
Some are happy and some are sad!
On both sides of the free throw line, Duncan's face was extremely solemn, with a few drops of sweat hitting the floor from time to time on his dark face.
"Whoa! Whoa!"
With two steady free throws, the difference between the two sides became wider and wider.
"Beep!!!"
The whistle sounded and the Spurs called timeout.
"call!"
"call!"
The Spurs players on the field looked like people emerging from the bottom of the water to take a breath, eager to feel the fresh air on the water.
Terry Stotts looked thoughtfully at the Spurs bench and high-fived the returning Trail Blazers players one by one as he welcomed the Portland Warriors back.
Sure enough, after the timeout, the Spurs replaced the main lineup as expected, and all GDP players took a rest, allowing Diaw and DeJuan Blair to lead the substitute lineup.
By the way, there is another special person, former league superstar...Tracy McGrady!
After McGrady came on the court, he looked at the Trail Blazers No. 36 not far away, and listened to the long-lasting "MVP" voice around him, with an incomprehensible expression.
He was also the MVP in the hearts of countless fans!
Smiling to himself, in the last minute or so of the game, McGrady did his job conscientiously on the court until the moment the final whistle sounded.
0 points, 1 assist, 1 rebound... This is McGrady's record after his second appearance in this year's playoffs since signing with the Spurs.
Perhaps young fans have already found it difficult to appreciate the style of the scoring champion in the past two years from this out-of-shape No. 1 player.
But for the old fans, it is enough to see the young man with a white horse and a spear standing on the NBA court again, even if it is just for a few minutes.
"Beep~~~"
The electronic buzzer made the Portlanders in the stands dance. McGrady put the basketball in his hand on the ground with great aftertaste, and disappeared into the Rose Garden Arena with a slightly lonely figure.
In the stands, Portlanders were dancing.
The playing card avatars of the Blazers' Five Tigers were shaken crazily by the fans.
115:101, they won!
After going through all kinds of not being favored, all kinds of difficulties and obstacles, they finally defeated the Spurs.
Perhaps everyone knows that there is still little hope of a comeback, but that is no longer important.
The important thing is that everyone witnessed the youth storm of the Portland Trail Blazers and saw the glorious future of the Portland Trail Blazers.
That's enough!
Wang Zelin looked at the score on the big screen and felt relieved, and his smile began to brighten.
Then, when the urgency of the whole game subsided and his body relaxed, he felt a sense of fatigue coming back.
Fortunately, they won.
"Wang, are you tired?"
Seeing Wang Zelin standing alone on the court, Lillard walked over and hugged him.
"Tired... to be honest, quite tired! How about you?"
"Brother, me too. But we won in the end, didn't we?"
At this moment, Lillard and Wang Zelin's fists collided.
In the VIP room in the front row of the Rose Garden.
"Even if we can only stop here this year, I dare to bet you that the future of the league will definitely belong to us and this group of young people!"
Looking at the two heroic young men in the center of the court, Trail Blazers general manager Nel Orsi began to have unlimited yearning for the future.
"Of course, I'm looking forward to it!"
Standing next to him was Paul Allen, the team's boss.
A team that was considered to be in a rebuilding period ended up making it to the Western Conference Finals.
A Chinese kid who first entered the league, but ended up beating all the centers.
The golden age of the Portland Trail Blazers is coming!
…
In the third game of the Western Conference Finals series, the Trail Blazers came back with 14 points in the last quarter of a life-or-death battle at home, especially Wang Zelin's triple-double of blocked shots, which undoubtedly became the most talked about topic in the playoffs.
Rather than the significance of the game itself, what the outside world values more is the unlimited potential of the Blazers' young players.
Although they won a game, the chance of players becoming popular was too high, and not many people thought that the Trail Blazers could complete the final comeback.
After all, the Trail Blazers' losses in the first two games were too ugly.
It’s not impossible to win.
Unless No. 36, who pioneered his days, can dominate the game on the defensive end like today's game.
28 points, 18 rebounds and 10 blocks in a single game, that’s a triple-double in the playoffs!
It goes without saying how difficult it is to recreate such a perfect night.
Even when Wang Zelin was interviewed by reporters after the game and was asked, "How did it feel when you got the first triple-double of blocks in the playoffs in your career?" Wang Zelin said that there was a lot of luck involved.
After all, it is extremely rare to have double figures in blocks in the playoffs, let alone a triple-double of points, rebounds, and blocks, which is already beyond human.
Such a miraculous moment tests the player's personal ability and luck at the time.
Personal ability is always there, but luck is not always there!
Therefore, compared to the team's performance, it is Wang Zelin's personal data that attracts more attention.
If they want to advance, the Trail Blazers still have to win three games.
Can you win three games?
Can we win all three games?
Everyone knows...
Very blue and spicy!
Therefore, the Trail Blazers have no hope of advancing anyway. Instead of doing this, it is better to look forward to what kind of data Wang Zelin can contribute in the next games.
This is what the audience, who are not too concerned about the excitement, most want to see.
Even Wang Zelin didn't expect that after the team struggled to win a victory, he would be the one in the spotlight.
After understanding the ins and outs, he could only sigh with emotion, "Sure enough, outstanding people attract so much attention no matter where they go."
