Chapter 431 O’Neal, Come Out and Get Beaten!

The game is still going on, and the hands of both sides have not been able to detoxify and are terrible. Li Shengli and O'Neal, two thorns in the penalty area, are firmly in control of the interior territory, which makes both sides feel uncomfortable.

Can't make mid-range shots?

Then rush to the inside more often. You have to raise the score anyway, otherwise this Christmas battle will be really ugly. After the two sides decided on their tactics... the game became intense, and the statistics of Li Shengli and O'Neal became more and more abnormal.

Rebounds are higher than points. Except for the offense in the first quarter, the number of shots and efficiency of the latter two are not very high. Because both sides choose to sprint inside, the block data rises at an alarming rate in the final quarter. As for assists, the efficiency is too poor and there are still crappy assists. Not to mention the center position.

So the game lasted until less than 2 minutes of the final quarter, and this Christmas battle created a unique game... The score between the two sides was a new low of 53:54, and the Magic had the ball and was 1 point ahead.

Li Shengli had 14 points, 28 rebounds, 9 blocks, and 3 assists. O'Neal also had 14 points, 28 rebounds, 9 blocks, and 3 assists. It is very rare to have the same positive data. The larger the value, the greater the difficulty, and the more difficult it is. Not to mention two quasi-triple-doubles.

At the same time, Hardaway and Kidd on the other side have already achieved a 'triple double'. Even if the team scores low, it is not too difficult to break the double. The really difficult thing is the second data to break the double... two players playing point guards. Players’ assists can’t catch up with rebounds? As for the number of turnovers in the third double-double, the two also reached 10 in tacit agreement.

…

The Magic called a timeout, and the current situation was very embarrassing.

On the one hand, there is not much time in the game. When the Magic is 1 point ahead, it is more reasonable to delay their shots and reduce the number of rounds as much as possible. But on the other hand... the score is too low. If it really ends with 54 points, regardless of winning or losing, The dishonorable record of the lowest single-game score by an NBA team lies in the hands of the Magic, who saved the Eagles from the humiliation pillar with 57 points.

The Magic are worried, and the Mavericks are even more worried, because the Mavericks are 1 point less than the Magic.

If they really lose, not only will their 21-game winning streak be gone, but the team's lowest scoring record will be on themselves.

…

But the game is still about winning.

After the two sides came on the stage, the Magic attacked first. Hardaway dribbled the ball slowly through half court as expected, but Kidd looked anxious and had nothing to do. After all, everyone's offensive efficiency was very low, and whoever committed a foul would commit suicide.

"Hardaway, hold on." O'Neal reminded him first.

"I got it, Kidd, get out of the way!" Hardaway lost his temper. Crotty was so defensive that he vomited during the whole game. He simply said provocatively: "Crotty, come on, come and fuck me again!"

"Hurry up, bastard, who wants to chat with you!" Crotty was too lazy to speak, and Kidd directly cursed.

"I won't fight, I'll just hold it off. If you have the ability, come and steal it from me."

"Whatever you want, at your level, if we ask you to fight, you won't be able to score."

"You say you can score? You have the guts. Why don't you try Shaq's block?"

"Shit, hello, you're awesome, then you better go and have a fight with Li!"

…

Talents are all talents!

Li Shengli was holding up O'Neal, listening to the roaring chatter outside, and his whole body felt bad. However, when it was delayed until 20 seconds, Hardaway went around to the other side of Li Shengli, made a sprint throw, and successfully hit the iron.

Back to the Mavericks offense.

Because he was 1 point behind and needed to grab time, Li Shengli trotted away from O'Neal and stood near the free throw line to catch the ball. This opportunity was still good, but... O'Neal and Grant covered it one left and one right.

"Kevin!" This situation was very familiar. Li Shengli immediately looked for Garnett's position.

"I'm here!" Garnett was also familiar with it, and he took the ball directly from Li Shengli.

It's just that the positioning distance between Li Shengli and Garnett is not ideal. To put it bluntly, they are standing too close. Even though the two are familiar with this inside-and-out play, O'Neal is also familiar with it. He doesn't care about Li Shengli and goes straight to Garnett. .

Damn it, are you still coming?

Li Shengli raised his eyebrows, and Garnett was slapped wildly by O'Neal as soon as he made a shooting move. He took a big block and allowed O'Neal to block his 10th shot.

"Thank you idiots, hahaha!"

"Damn it, get back on guard and hit them!"

Satisfied, O'Neal led the team to attack, while Li Shengli led the team back to defense... staring at every possible open opportunity for the Magic, but Hardaway still refused to shoot, and Kidd did not dare to defend rashly. In the end, he was exhausted again. A 20-second shot from Anderson.

…

Still can't score?

The Magic didn't score, and the Mavericks had a chance. At this time, there was less than a minute left in the game, and the Mavericks also called a timeout.

Currently, according to the Magic's nature, it is enough for the Mavericks to hit twice and the Magic to hit once. But if the Mavericks want to win, they must ensure that they hit one more ball than the Magic, so the final shot does not care about the offensive position of one, two, or three.

Kidd quickly pushed to the frontcourt and handed it directly to Li Shengli.

Garnett ran wildly all the way, pulling Grant away and creating a one-on-one in the penalty area.

Li Shengli knew that this shot was too crucial, so he turned over with O'Neal and shot it.

Li Shengli: "Come in! You must enter!"

O'Neal: "If you don't get in, you can't get in, you definitely can't get in!"

The two of them simultaneously unleashed their greatest telekinesis so far, and under the attention of the entire audience... there was a bang. The accuracy was not perfect, but the shot from the front still bounced into the basket, and because the Mavericks were 1 point ahead, the situation was Turning around, O'Neal's face instantly turned black and gray, and the home court was wailing.

…

Being ahead by 1 point was nothing, but when the Magic got the ball and quickly advanced into the frontcourt, Hardaway, who was originally slow, faced the sudden acceleration of the offensive rhythm. His dribbling stalled for a moment, and Kidd saw it right. Timing and completing a steal, although the Magic returned to defense in time, it was also a big advantage to grab the ball at this time and not play a fast break.

Gone?

Christmas war, magic is out?

The defense doesn't dare to commit fouls and can only let the Mavericks hold them back?

In fact, Kidd did exactly that, just like Hardaway just now. He delayed it until the attack time was approaching, and Curry handed over the ball.

…

In the last 17 seconds, the Magic paused to deploy tactics.

This attack time is okay and not considered rushed. Assuming that after this goal is scored, the Mavericks must not be left with too much time, so the Magic must ensure that this is the last attack of the game, and the task of hitting the winning goal... is handed over Gave it to O'Neal.

Back on the field.

If you have an advantage, you have confidence, even if the advantage is small.

All Li Shengli can do when leading the team is defense, and you can probably guess that...the Magic's last goal was either O'Neal or Hardaway. The former was greater than the latter. After all, the latter was done badly by Kidd and Crotty. .

"Shaq... come here and get beaten!" Li Shengli roared.

"Damn it, I'll beat you to death, you bastard!" Hardaway tried it and found that there was no chance, but O'Neal only got the last 10 seconds. "Why are you so arrogant? You, a second-rate center, can't see that I already have a triple-double." ?"

"Come on then, you are only a second-rate person at best... Damn it, you... you have no skin and no face, you!" Li Shengli originally wanted to reply, but O'Neal, the chicken thief, took advantage of Li Shengli's speaking time to launch an attack and turned his back. He went straight to the basket, made a strong uppercut, held the ball with both hands in the air, and pulled back when he swung it. This kind of violent dunk... it was amazing.

"Kill!" O'Neal's bulging veins were like tattoos carved on his face.

"Get...down!" Li Shengli's whole body tensed up, and his muscles were as hard as stone.

boom!

There was a crisp sound.

O'Neal's heart was broken. He fell into a trap when he made a move to pull the ball back, and Li Shengli chased him from behind. Using his big hand from bottom to top with the momentum of his body, he swatted the ball directly into the air and hit it. Christmas Eve in Orlando was a mess.

With 5 seconds left in the game, the Mavericks led by 1 point and got the ball.
