It's not like Jeremy Lin has never seen a big man serve a sideline ball, but it requires considerable passing ability and vision. Most centers don't have this kind of connection ability. Furthermore, Jeremy Lin also observed through this game that this is called hot money.
Although the Chinese center is very capable, he has almost no mid-range jump shots. Most of his shots are close to the basket and inside. Although this is not a flaw, after all, as a center inside, he should stay as close as possible to the penalty area.
The goal is to go to the basket, but in this way, his ability to contain the sideline ball is reduced by more than half. As long as he is not in the three-second zone without the ability to hit the mid-range shot, his threat is very, very small.
This was what Jeremy Lin was thinking, but Tang Qian immediately taught him a lesson.
Tang Qian's current mid-range shooting ability is indeed average, but this does not mean that he has no other ways to score.
Relying on his height, Tang Qian quickly passed the sideline ball, and the receiver was small forward Andre Ingram. Because point guard Manny Harris was watched too closely by Jeremy Lin, so
Tang Qian thought for a moment and chose to pass the ball to Andre Ingram.
When he saw Andre Ingram holding the ball, Jeremy Lin immediately commanded: "Bellerin, press up, his dribbling ability is very average."
After hearing Jeremy Lin's words, the small forward of the Erie Seahawks quickly pressed forward, looking at the posture with claws and teeth, as if he wanted to eat Andre Ingram alive.
But Jeremy Lin is right. Andre Ingram's dribbling ability is indeed not very good. Under such fierce pressing defense, he quickly showed his fatigue.
"****!****, you dare to hit me with your elbow???" Andre Ingram said angrily after being tricked by Bellerin with a few small moves.
"Stop being so wordy, the referee didn't even call it, so don't be so whiny!" Bellerin choked, "If you have the ability, just dribble past me!"
"You..." Just when Andre Ingram was about to "fall into the trap," a tall figure raised his hand while running and said: "Pass!"
Is this figure? Andre Ingram was alerted, then changed his movements and threw the basketball in his hand high.
What is this? So high? Is it littering?
Bellerin was also taken aback by Andre Ingram's action, because such a throw was almost impossible to produce any effect.
Besides, if the throw is so high, who can catch it? It’s really good...
Bellerin's expression suddenly froze, for no other reason than that the basketball stopped in mid-air without any warning. Why did the basketball stop suddenly? Of course it couldn't be some kind of magic. Bellerin took a closer look.
, it turns out that the basketball in motion was intercepted by a big yellow hand in the air.
And the owner of this big yellow hand is none other than the Defenders’ center Tang Qian!
Why did he appear in that position? Wasn't he outside the sideline just now? Why did he suddenly appear in the penalty area in his backcourt? How did he do it???
Bellerin was a little dumbfounded.
Boom!!!
A deafening dunk resounded throughout the entire court, and the audience couldn't help but burst into excitement.
Alley-oop??? With such a long distance and such a high altitude, is he "Warcraft" Howard?
After seeing this shocking scene, Ivanka Dukan was a little stunned. In an instant, he understood a fact.
That is because my evaluation of this yellow center is still too low.
This kind of athletic ability and physical fitness are enough to be ranked in the second round of the draft, no, in the first round. This big guy with yellow skin is definitely a talent!!!
I must help the Bulls get him!!!
Ivanka Dukan swore secretly in her heart.
What an alley-oop! This guy will definitely be able to compete in the NBA in the future!
Jeremy Lin sighed softly after a long while.
101-105, only 4 points difference.
The members of the Erie Seahawks haven't fought such a tough battle in an unknown amount of time, so they all seemed a little timid at the last moment. Of course Jeremy Lin saw this, and in order to ensure victory in this game, he had to do it himself.
, because at this time, he has the strongest ability and the greatest offensive control in the entire Erie Seahawks team.
In order to be safe, Jeremy Lin chose a long-distance two-point attack this time. Although this way he avoided the defender's inside line, this kind of offensive method is not what he is good at now. So with a "Dang" sound, he
The mid-range jumper is perfect.
Tang Qian jumped high and collected the defensive rebound.
There were still 41 seconds left. In order to save time and increase the remaining offensive rounds of the Defenders, Manny Harris accelerated the pace of advancement. Logically speaking, there is no problem with his decision, but he forgot that he
Who is the opponent tonight, Jeremy Lin, no, Linsanity, will he let go of this opportunity?
Want to speed up the game? Don’t even think about it!
Jeremy Lin saw the opportunity and cut off Manny Harris's dribble with his right hand. Then he went on a one-man fast break and ended the round with a dunk.
101-107, the score returned to 6 points.
"Shit! It's all my fault, it's all my fault!!!" Manny Harris beat his chest in frustration.
"Forget it, Manny, now is not the time to blame yourself. There are still 36 seconds left in the game and it's not over yet." Tang Qian said: "Let's bet three points on the next ball. Don't worry, I will try my best to grab it.
Rebounder!"
"Well, it's up to you, hot!" Manny Harris knew that Tang Qian was right, so he quickly cheered up and said.
"What? Are you grabbing time by not speeding up the pace?" Seeing Manny Harris's dribbling rhythm slowing down again, Jeremy Lin said provocatively.
"Stop talking nonsense!" Manny Harris replied angrily, and then he concentrated on carefully dribbling the basketball through half the court without giving Jeremy Lin any chance to steal.
So cautious? That's fine. Anyway, time is in my favor. If you are willing to slow down the pace, I can't help but wish for it!
Just as Jeremy Lin was thinking about it, his right side suddenly became dark. He was stunned for a moment and immediately bumped into him.
No, this is a pick and roll!!!
"Go and cover the defense, don't let them shoot three-pointers!!!" Jeremy Lin shouted loudly.
However, Manny Harris still found space to take a shot, and made a three-point jumper that went straight to the basket.
When~
The basketball hit the back edge of the basket and bounced high into the air.
"Shit! Hot, grab the rebound!!!" Manny Harris cursed.
Look at me.
Tang Qian had long been prepared that Manny Harris would miss the shot, so as soon as the basketball popped out, Tang Qian stretched out his arm and grabbed it.
"Karim, go on!"
Tang Qian passed the rebound to Kareem Rush in the corner. After receiving the ball, Kareem Rush immediately shot a 22-foot three-point shot.
Brush~
The basketball hits the net accurately.
104-107.
Only three points left and 28 seconds left.
"Don't let him waste time, Manny, Kareem, go up and press!" Tang Qian shouted immediately after Kareem Rush made the shot.
"Full court press!!!"
Want to cut the basketball from my hand? Don’t even think about it! I, Jeremy Lin, will not let you succeed!
Jeremy Lin relied on his own ability and began to force his way past people. Manny Harris and Kareem Rush couldn't completely restrict him even if they combined to defend him.
Since two people can't do it, then three people will do it!
"Andre, you go up and double-team, make sure Jeremy Lin makes a mistake or makes a ball!" Tang Qian shouted to Andre Ingram on the right side of the three-point line.
"Three double-teams? Isn't this a bit..." Andre Ingram hesitated, because this would leave too many openings for the rest of the Erie Seahawks.
"There is no other way, Andre, it would be worse if the ball is in his hands!" Tang Qian said loudly.
"Okay, I understand!" Andre Ingram also left the defender and pressed towards Jeremy Lin.
At this time, Jeremy Lin was in trouble. Even in Lin's crazy state, there was no way for him to break through the three-man double-team defense. Jeremy Lin was forced to pass the ball.
The basketball was sent to SG Alex of the Erie Seahawks. Upon seeing this, Travis Hyman subconsciously wanted to rush over to make up the defense.
"Travis, don't go over there, just hold on to the inside line." Just when he was about to make a move, Tang Qian's voice came out.
"But……"
"There's nothing wrong with it. From such a long distance, even if you pounce with all your strength, it's already too late. It's better to stay quietly inside and prevent the opponent from taking advantage of the rebound."
After listening to Tang Qian's words, Travis Hyman also calmed down and just locked up with the opponent Blair, no longer caring about Alex outside the three-point line.
"Alex, there's a big space, what are you waiting for?" Bellerin couldn't help but said anxiously when he saw Alex hadn't moved for a long time.
In fact, Alex is also anxious now. If you say delay, the opponent doesn't care about him. If you say attack immediately, it will not delay the attack time. Under the dilemma, Alex's mentality has become subtle.
stand up.
"Alex, what are you doing? Holding the ball and waiting for the gay to come to you? If you don't get the chance to shoot, it will slip away!"
Damn it, should I vote or not???
In fact, if Travis Hyman had just pounced, Alex would not be so entangled, but the more his opponent left him alone, the more nervous and abnormal his mentality became. This is for a three-point shooter.
It is simply an extremely fatal thing. Have you ever seen the super three-point shooter Ray Allen also made 0 of 13 shots in the finals? This is caused by a subtle change in mentality. You must know that he also hit a hit in the last game.
As for 8 three-pointers, this kind of gap is almost like a roller coaster. Even the NBA's super shooters will have this kind of problem, so what's the surprise for just Alex?
Moreover, Alex has never made a few key shots in his life. In a scene like this, he can't stand the pressure.
"Fuck! Alex, if you don't dare to vote, vote for me!" Bellerin shouted loudly.
Oh, damn it, just vote!
Under Bellerin's "force", Alex "finally" took a shot. Although it was a wide open space with no one guarding it, Alex's shot was not stable, and even his posture was inconsistent.
Some are slightly deformed.
Very good, this kind of ball can't be scored!
Tang Qian shouted towards Travis Heyman: "Travis, get ready to grab rebounds!"
Torrence and Blair also realized the fate of this ball, so they were also actively fighting for position. There was a sound of muscles clashing in the defender's inside penalty area.
This rebounder is mine!!!
Tang Qian pinned Torrence firmly behind him, then jumped up, stretched out his arms, and the orange-red basketball immediately became the object of Tang Qian's palm.
GO!!!
Tang Qian made a long pass from the baseline, and Andre Ingram seemed to have a telepathic connection and started running early.
I, Andre Ingram, want this ball!
Ping!
Beep~
Andre Ingram successfully dunked, and at the same time Bellerin of the Erie Seahawks fouled, Andre Ingram got a 2+1 opportunity.
As long as the penalty is scored, it's a tie!
"Andre, come on, don't be stressed, you can definitely do it." Tang Qian stood on the right side of the three-second zone and said softly.
Andre Ingram nodded, then took a deep breath, then bent his knees and took action.
Brush~
The basketball drew an arc in mid-air and landed accurately. 107-107, the two teams were tied!
"Shi.t~shi.t~ I should have hit hard just now to prevent him from scoring the goal!" Bellerin complained loudly to himself.
"Okay, Bellerin, stop shouting, there are still 14 seconds left, ask Lin what to do!" Torrence interrupted Bellerin.
"Lin, what are you going to do?"
Jeremy Lin's eyes shrank and he slowly said: "Block the next ball for me, and I will kill the Defenders myself!"
The Erie Seahawks called a timeout so that they could choose to serve directly from the frontcourt, saving space and time for the offense.
"Keep an eye on Jeremy Lin and don't let him catch the ball!" Tang Qian reminded loudly.
Huh, hot, do you think you can win like this? I won't let you succeed!
Jeremy Lin said with gleaming eyes.
Beep~
The referee blew his whistle and the last 14 seconds began.
After a chaotic shuttle, Jeremy Lin finally squeezed away Manny Harris and Kareem Rush. With his right hand, he received the pass from the frontcourt. After receiving the pass, Jeremy Lin did not act like the NBA.
Slow down the rhythm, because he knows that as long as he slows down, the defenders will double-team him unscrupulously, forcing him to pass the ball. If this is in the NBA, passing to an open teammate is naturally a good thing and cannot be repeated.
A good thing, but it's a pity that this is the NBDL, and the Erie Seahawks are not the New York Knicks, so once he passes the ball, it is like "a meat bun beating a dog, and there is no return."
Based on Alex's performance just now, if you want to win tonight's game, you can't rely on others but yourself!
When the game reached this level, Jeremy Lin also had some fighting spirit. He wanted to defeat the Defenders, and even more so, he wanted to defeat the opposite big center with the same skin color.
So in this last attack, he had no choice.
Taking advantage of the squeezed Manny Harris and Kareem Rush, Jeremy Lin started to attack. He dribbled out quickly during the chaos, and then ran towards the defender without hesitation.
Rushing inside. Jeremy Lin also knows his strengths and weaknesses, so he has already planned the shot choice for this ball.
Try not to miss a shot if you can, and try to finish your opponent with a layup or as close to the basket as possible.
After Jeremy Lin got rid of all the defenders, he accelerated in a straight line and charged. This is his most powerful and stable way to score. Against the defenders, he was able to exert all his strength.
"Travis, don't worry about this ball, let me do it." Tang Qian said to Travis Hyman next to him.
"Well, I'll leave it to you, perm." Travis Heyman nodded and agreed immediately.
Come on, Crazy Lin, let’s face off for the last time in this game!
Tang Qian stepped forward, opened his arms slightly, looked at Jeremy Lin coming towards him, and shouted in his heart.
"Chinese hot, don't even think about blocking me!" Jeremy Lin's expression also became ferocious, looking ferocious as he took long strides and rushed towards the inside line guarded by Tang Qian.
Who can win?
Bulls scout Ivanka Dukan couldn't sit still. He straightened up and said intently.
"You can't get in!" Tang Qian shouted loudly.
"You can't stop it!" This was Jeremy Lin's voice.
Four meters, three meters, two meters, one meter, both people jumped into the air at the same time. Who won and who lost could be determined in an instant!
Is it Tang Qian who used the bronze shock card? Or Jeremy Lin who turned on Linsanity mode?
Jeremy Lin seemed to have fully learned the lesson from before. This time he didn't even consider a lowhand layup and directly chose a high throw. Looking at the arc of his shot, you can tell that the original intention of this shot was to avoid Tang Qian.
Powerful blocking.
As we all know, the throw is extremely sudden. At least compared to layups and shots, it requires less preparation space and time, which is more conducive for small men to take shots calmly under the tight defense of big men.
Is it a high-flying shot? Damn it, I'm going to defend you too!
Tang Qian rushed forward as if he was on a rocket. His right hand was stretched out straight, and it looked like a King Kong from a distance. His palm was as big as a cattail leaf, and he wanted to reject all intruders.
Can it be covered?
Everyone held their breath.
In the end, Jeremy Lin had a smile on his face, because this high shot passed Tang Qian's five-finger barrier and went straight to the defender's basket.
"You lose, the Chinese are hot!" Jeremy Lin said.
Just after Jeremy Lin said this sentence, there was a "dang" sound that completely wiped out the smile on his face.
Actually, I actually missed???
Travis Hyman immediately called for a timeout after grabbing the defensive rebound, which undoubtedly eased the tense atmosphere on the court to a certain extent.
Why did you miss? The feeling of the ball just now was obviously very good. Why?
Jeremy Lin's eyes were a little vacant. He looked at the defender's basket and didn't react for a long time.
What a risk. If I hadn't used the Bronze Shock Card to increase the inside shock ability by one-third, Jeremy Lin's high projectile just now might not have been able to hinder him! Crazy Lin is really scary when he goes crazy, and he almost died.
Can't control him!
But it was guarded, and it wasn't over yet, because there were 2 seconds left in the game.
"Lin, it's okay. I can't blame you for that ball. We all thought it would go in!" Torrence, center of the Erie Seahawks, consoled him.
"Yeah, Lin, it's just a draw anyway, we still have a chance to win in overtime!" Blair also said.
"That's right, Lin, we still have overtime. If you all perform well, you will definitely be able to take down the defender!"
"That's right, that's right, Lin, you don't have to blame yourself too much!"
Under the comfort of everyone on the Erie Seahawks team, Jeremy Lin shook his head, nodded and said, "You're right, the worst it can do is play overtime!"
Chinese hot, I will not lose easily!
"Well, the tactics for overtime are..." On the defender's side, just as Phil Hubbard was about to lay out the tactics for overtime, an Eastern voice suddenly said: "Mr. Hubbard
, there is still time in the game, I think it is a bit early to talk about overtime."
"Hot, there are only 2 seconds left before the end of the fourth quarter. What else can you do with 2 seconds?"
Tang Qian looked at Karim Rush who was speaking, and whispered: "Two seconds are enough to resolve the game."
The timeout passed quickly, and Manny Harris stood outside the frontcourt sideline to serve.
"Hot, can this...be successful?" Travis Hyman asked.
"Maybe." Tang Qian replied succinctly.
The point guard goes to serve the ball from the sideline? Is he going to gamble on an outside shot?
Jeremy Lin thought for a while and said: "Tighten their SF and SG, and we must not let them take action comfortably!"
To be fair, even if many NBA head coaches come, facing the current situation, I am afraid they will still give this kind of command.
Buzzer-beaters and buzzer-beaters are always the preserve of outside players, right?
After seeing the defensive focus of the Erie Seahawks, Manny Harris thought to himself: I really got it right. They really surrounded and suppressed the perimeter players with heavy troops! This first step was considered a success.
Next, it’s up to me and Tang Qian.
Beep beep~
The referee blew the whistle to start the game, and all the players on the field started running and shuttling around like clockwork.
Defenders' outside players, don't even think about catching the ball comfortably!
This is the collective sentiment of the Erie Seahawks.
One second, two seconds, three seconds... Manny Harris never passed the ball in his hands, as if he was waiting for something.
OK! There are still two seconds left. If he still can't serve the ball, then the chance of winning will be transferred to his side.
Four seconds.
Five seconds... Manny Harris finally made a pass, but the arc of his pass was terrifyingly weird.
This... this is clearly not a ball passed to an outside teammate!
Was it passed to the inside?
But with two seconds left, what's the point of passing it to the inside? The big man's movements are slower and more sluggish, and in the penalty area where every inch of ground is contested, the center and power forward have no chance of easily finding space to shoot. This is simply a waste of time.
Be stupid!
Forget it, the opponent probably also had the mentality of wanting to play overtime, so they did it casually.
"This...this..." Jeremy Lin was thinking secretly when Alex's expression suddenly changed beside him.
Jeremy Lin turned his head without knowing why, and suddenly, a shocking scene came into his eyes.
The yellow center, at some point, was already floating high above the basket. His limbs and torso were fully spread out, like a golden roc, waiting for something high in the sky.
What on earth is he waiting for?
Could it be...
"Tonight, we will definitely win!!!" The tall, yellow-skinned man caught the speeding basketball with both hands, then roared, used all his strength, and smashed the Erie Seahawks' basket hard.
basket.
boom!!!
Tang Qian successfully dunked just one second before the red light came on.
The whole place was excited and the game was over.
109-107, the Los Angeles Defenders finally won this game after a fierce battle all night!
this……
I want to order this Chinese center!!!
Ivanka Dukan stood up directly from her seat and shouted loudly in her heart.
PS: The bottom corner of the NBA three-point line is closest to the basket, and the value is 22 feet (6.70~6.71 meters, the exact number is 6.7056 meters). The farthest distance is the arc top distance, also called the top arc distance, which is 23 feet 9 inches.
(7.24 meters, the exact number is 7.239 meters). The NBA stipulates that when a timeout is called when there are only 2 minutes left in the fourth quarter or overtime, you can choose to serve from the backcourt or the frontcourt. This is to increase the drama of the game.
And a major reversal move (friends who often watch the NBA should have seen it, many buzzer beaters and buzzer beaters are successfully achieved using this rule).
