Coach Thompson looked on from the sidelines and shook his head slightly. He felt something was wrong because he knew that Sanders' mental quality was average.

Sure enough, Sanders had a cold sweat on his head because the team was lagging behind now. If he missed the free throw and there was not much time left, the blame for the team's loss would fall on him.

He felt his heart beating rapidly. Even though Iverson comforted him with a few words, Sanders was still extremely nervous.

The referee urged him to hurry up and take the free throw, and then Sanders slowly walked to the free throw line.

He took a deep breath and threw the first ball very slowly, and the result——

Three non-sticks...

Air ball……

The Cavalry fans at the scene burst into laughter.

Coach Thompson also shook his head angrily.

If Sanders' mental quality is good, the probability of making two free throws is very high.

For the second free throw, Sanders seemed to be calmer. He dribbled the ball several times and threw it again.

The basketball circled around the hoop and fell into it.

Not bad, got 1 point, Sanders took a deep breath and wiped the sweat from his head.

81:78, the score difference is still three points.

The Cavaliers sent a baseline kick, and the players of the Marvel Team looked at head coach Thompson and wanted to know, should they continue to score?

Thompson gritted his teeth and waved his hand, signaling to continue chopping!

He felt that although Sanders' mental quality was not good, at least he could still score free throws.

Graham of the Marvel team hugged Ben again and sent him to the free throw line.

Ben panicked for a few minutes and finally calmed down. This time he made two free throws!

The Cavaliers players and fans were excited and shouted Ben's name.

Big Ben performed well today and it was his highlight moment.

83:78, the Cavaliers lead by 5 points, with 1 minute and 56 seconds left in the game.

As the Marvel team attacked, Brown stepped forward and hugged Sanders again, and continued to chop!

Sanders' condition also improved a lot, and he made the first free throw.

The Marvel players are encouraging him.

Unfortunately, his second free throw missed!

Da Ben grabbed the rebound and threw it to Zhao Qiang.

After the throw, Ben quickly ran towards the referee and dodged around the referee to avoid being chopped!

The players of the Marvel team were confused. Graham and Mays both chased Ben and wanted to continue to foul.

Zhao Qiang seized this opportunity, and before they could "capture" Ben, he shot a super long three-pointer!

At this time, the position of his shot was just past the center line and more than one meter away from the three-point line.

Can this goal be scored?

The moment he took action, Metz also pounced on Big Ben.

The referee immediately stretched out three fingers to indicate that Zhao Qiang's shot was effective, pointed at Metz, and blew the whistle.

Whoosh!

The basketball drew a beautiful arc in the air and got into the net!

Actually got in!

Not only did the Cavaliers gain three more points, they also had two more free throws because Mays fouled Ben without the ball.

Head coach Thompson was furious and protested to the referee, indicating that the foul came first and the three-pointer did not count!

But the referee saw clearly that when Zhao Qiang took the shot, Metz had not yet touched the base, so the three-pointer was valid!

Thompson held his head in his hands angrily, roared at Mays, and complained that he was too slow to foul.

Mace was also wronged. Ben's dodge just now was so cunning that he really couldn't catch up...

At 86:78, the Cavaliers led by 8 points. At the same time, Ben had to make two free throws.

The amazing team is really: Tang Shuai’s clever plan to calm the world, he lost his wife and lost his troops!

The Cavalry players were also very excited. They had never experienced such a game scene before. It was so exciting.

Ben walked to the free throw line. He had no mental burden at all. He was leading by so many points and was sure to win!

However, he still made one of two free throws, and the score reached 87:78.

Marvel team attack.

This time the cavalry did not commit a foul, but quickly returned to defense, preparing to defend against this wave.

Iverson dribbled the ball past half court, faced a double team, and called for a screen again.

Breaking through Brown's defense, Iverson reached the edge of the penalty area.

Maybe it was because Zhao Qiang intercepted the ball just now, so Iverson was a little flustered, and when he took the shot, he missed the ball.

Boom!

pops up again.

Fortunately, Sanders was more aggressive, overpowered Ben, grabbed the frontcourt board, attacked a second time, and hit the ball.

86:80, 1 minute and 21 seconds left.

Cavalry attack.

Head coach Thompson also gave up the chopping tactics and made a gesture, asking the players to play as they please...

There is no way, the more you cut, the bigger the point difference becomes, and there is no way to cut anymore.

Zhao Qiang dribbled the ball to the frontcourt and changed direction again to the left.

Metz was in hot pursuit, and Zhao Qiang made a gyroscopic spin, threw Metz away, and headed towards the penalty area.

The moment Sanders pounced on him, Zhao Qiang passed the ball to Ben.

Ben caught the ball and it was a dunk!

I had a great time today and ate the big cakes one after another.

Bang!

88:80!

There are 58 seconds left in the game.

Team Marvel is gone...

Finally, at the end of the game, the Cavaliers were upset again, defeating the No. 3 seed team, the Georgetown University team, and advanced to the semi-finals!

Zhao Qiang played 37 minutes today and scored 25 points, the Cavaliers' top scorer. Ben scored 22 points, the first time he scored 20 points this season!

Brown also scored 19 points today and made 6 of 8 three-pointers.

Iverson scored 36 points, the highest scorer, and had 8 assists.

There is no doubt that Iverson is indeed the best star today, but Zhao Qiang is even better in leading the team!

When the game ended and the red timer light came on, the Cavalry fans and players on the scene all jumped up excitedly, roared loudly, hugged each other, and high-fived each other. They were so excited that they were beyond words!

Zhao Qiang also hugged his teammates one by one, especially Ben, who hugged him for a long time.

Daben kept saying one word: "Thank you, thank you..."

If Zhao Qiang hadn't practiced with Da Ben every day, Da Ben's offensive skills would never have improved so quickly.

Big Ben knew very well that Zhao Qiang was really worried about his draft selection!

Zhao Qiang patted Ben on his broad back and congratulated him: "No need to thank me, it's the result of your own efforts. You played great today!"

Iverson stood silently next to him, in a daze. He had not yet come to his senses. He did not believe that he would lose...

After a few minutes, he regained his composure, shook his head with a wry smile, and walked towards Zhao Qiang.

"Qiangzi, I was impressed by you today. You really have something!" Iverson came over and hugged Zhao Qiang, expressing his respect for Zhao Qiang.

Although his tone was still slightly arrogant, Zhao Qiang knew that this was Iverson's character. He was not a bad person, and he expressed his respect for Zhao Qiang from the bottom of his heart.

If it were someone else, Iverson would have gone straight to the tunnel.

"Thank you for your compliment. Although our team won, you are the best player and no one can deny it!"
