365. The final attack
Wu Dawei's response ball once again made the Cleveland Cavaliers safe for the time being, and also made the Quick Loan Center again have a huge cheer and the hot stadium atmosphere.
At this time, the time has reached less than the last minute. The Oklahoma City Thunder basically does not have too many opportunities. They need to complete an attack immediately and complete the attack as quickly as possible. Otherwise, the 5-point gap will be difficult to catch up with in a regular one-minute period.
So the Thunder quickly completed the serve at the bottom line, and then Russell Westbrook dribbled the ball and ran through the half. At this time, Kevin Durant did not stand there anymore, but ran through the half.
Although Kevin Durant was closely attached to Wu Dawei's defense, Russell Westbrook still chose to hand over the ball to him. His previous performance of scoring 5 points in a row made people willing to hand over the ball to him.
Kevin Durant did not rush to attack after getting the ball. Although there was little time left for the game now, after all, at least it was enough for the Oklahoma City Thunder to play twice.
Durant still has to ensure the success of the offense, but he has no intention of passing the ball, even when facing Wu Dawei's single defense. Kevin Durant scored 5 points in a row, which made his confidence soar at this time. He waved to the inside line, not intending to fight Wu Dawei alone.
After playing so many finals with Wu Dawei, Kevin Durant still knew very well how terrifying Wu Dawei was when he was fighting alone. So why should he ask for trouble? Moreover, at this time it was still such a critical moment.
Durant was the only hope for the Oklahoma City Thunder at this time, so when he waved to the inside, it was not only Sergi Ibaka who rushed up, but even Patrick Perkins, who had always been slow to move, rushed up.
The two of them clamped Wu Dawei from left to right, and Kevin Durant didn't give Wu Dawei time to react, so they directly waved the ball to the side and got rid of Wu Dawei.
When Wu Dawei bypassed Perkins' body and caught up with Durant, Durant had jumped out of the three-point line again! Wu Dawei rushed forward, but at this time Durant's advantage of height and arm length appeared!
Wu Dawei was only a little short of reaching the ball in Durant's hand, but he just didn't reach it. Durant threw the ball into the air again. People didn't even have time to turn their eyes to the basket, but they heard a sound of a swish...
93:95!
With the last 38 seconds left in the game, the Oklahoma City Thunder narrowed the gap to only 2 points left! The situation took a sharp turn, and it suddenly became a bit precarious for the Cleveland Cavaliers who played at home.
The Cavaliers' head coach Brooks hurriedly requested a timeout at this time, with about 40 seconds left in the game, which means that no matter how the Cleveland Cavaliers play, they will definitely leave an offensive opportunity for the Oklahoma City Thunder.
So next, the Cleveland Cavaliers must definitely play the next attack, because in this way they can firmly control their destiny.
Otherwise, if they can't help the next attack, the Oklahoma City Thunder will have a great chance to equalize the score, even overtake the score, or even reverse the game!
This does not require head coach Byron Scott to say more, and the Cavaliers players themselves understand very well.
At this time, there is no doubt that Wu Dawei must be the backbone of the Cleveland Cavaliers on the offensive end. This is not only known to the Cleveland Cavaliers, but also the people of the Oklahoma City Thunder are very clear about it.
So during this timeout, Brooks, the head coach of the Oklahoma City Thunder, emphasized that he hoped that the players could return to the court after waiting for a while. They would curb Wu Dawei's offensive energy and try not to let him help the Cleveland Cavaliers.
Of course, if he can't even touch the ball, it's definitely the best choice, but it's basically impossible to be pragmatic, so Brooks hopes that the players can be determined when attacking Wu Dawei! Especially when he chooses to break through the inside, at this time, the Cleveland Cavaliers will definitely not choose to shoot outside the three-point line. After all, they now have the advantage of two points. As long as they score a mid-range shot, they can lead by 4 points.
With the last ten seconds left in the game, it can basically be considered as locking in the victory!
"We must guard against Wu Dawei!"
This is the most common thing Brooks, the head coach of the Oklahoma City Thunder, said to all the players during the timeout. Everyone nodded in annoyance, because everyone knew that Wu Dawei was the key to the next game.
"Oh~ I didn't expect that at the last moment of the game, the Oklahoma City Thunder actually saw the hope of winning again. This game really made people feel unexpected! Now the Cavaliers have less than 40 seconds left in the game. Just 2 points ahead of the Oklahoma City Thunder, the next attack is crucial." Charles Barkley sat on the sidelines and couldn't help but admire the luck of the Oklahoma City Thunder in the last moment of the game. Kevin Durant hits continuously as if he had a help from the gods.
Now, the players on both sides have returned to the court. When the game kicked off again, the Cleveland Cavaliers served outside the bounds. Chauncey Billups held the ball near the center line. He did not choose to attack immediately, but was waiting for the passage of time.
At the moment when the 24-second countdown began, at this moment, almost the entire Cleveland fans in the Speed Loan Center could no longer sit still. Everyone stood up and nervously turned their eyes to the basketball court in the center of the arena.
Billups remained motionless at the high position, and then Wu Dawei slipped from the baseline to the high position, and then received a pass from Billups in Durant's press. After Wu Dawei got the ball, he still did not directly attack, and he was also waiting for the passage of time.
Everyone in the Oklahoma City Thunder dared not relax at all at this time. Any turmoil from Wu Dawei will make them nervous.
All Cleveland fans also placed their hopes on him.
24, 23, 22...16, 15, 14...10, 9, 8. When the attack time limit reached the last eight seconds, Wu Dawei, who was holding the ball in front of Kevin Durant, moved. As agile as thunder, and suddenly, Wu Dawei started suddenly, and then went straight into the paint area under the basket. Kevin Durant quickly followed Wu Dawei's pace and prevented himself from being thrown away.
Since the Cleveland Cavaliers players had helped Wu Dawei open up space before this, at this time, no Oklahoma City Thunder teammates could give Kevin Durant any help in assisting defense.
It's up to him!
Kevin Durant also understood this situation very well, but when he faced Wu Dawei's strong ball-holding, he found that Wu Dawei's impact still made him feel very difficult.
Kevin Durant tried his best to defend Wu Dawei's breakthrough, but with the advantage of tonnage, Wu Dawei still rushed into the paint area! In this way, he immediately attracted double-teams from the Oklahoma City Thunder.
Without hesitation, the Oklahoma City Thunder double-team rushed towards Wu Dawei, and every Oklahoma City Thunder player obeyed what head coach Brooks said during the timeout.
When Wu Dawei broke through Kevin Durant's defense near the free throw line and rushed in, Kendrick Perkins and Serge Ibaka rushed up at the same time!
But Wu Dawei still had a calm expression when facing the two seven-foot man's attack. He suddenly stopped urgently! Then Wu Dawei jumped up, and before he could completely get rid of Kevin Durant, Wu Dawei jumped up, which allowed him to avoid the two seven-foot man's attacks in front of him.
Wu Dawei's choice made people worried about him because Kevin Durant was angry and ready to go!
But Wu Dawei leaned forward and raised his hand, which made Kevin Durant unable to easily slap the ball in Wu Dawei's hand from behind, and then he threw the ball into the basket.
There was almost no adjustment in the air, so Wu Dawei threw the ball towards the basket, which basically should be the last attack of the Cleveland Cavaliers in this game.
The ball flew towards the basket in everyone's eyes, leaping over the ten fingers of Sergi Ibaka and Kendrick Perkins, and then under everyone's gaze, it broke all the silence of the entire Quick Loan Center with a swish!
"I'm in!"
Charles Barkley was the first to jump out of the chair, and his voice even trembled at this time: "The ball has entered! Wu Dawei scored a crucial goal in the defense of countless people! The Cavaliers led the opponent 4 points again. With more than ten seconds left in the game, the Cavaliers led the Oklahoma City Thunder by 4 points. At home, they were only one step away from the victory of this game!"
The Quick Loan Center was hysterical. Although the game was not over yet, at this time, the 93:97 lead made Cleveland fans worried all night, and at this moment, it felt like the dust had settled.
A corner of the stadium was a bit silent, it was the Oklahoma City Thunder's player seat, and the entire Quick Loan Center boiled like boiling water.
This game is almost over, and the final winner is almost about to emerge. (To be continued. If you like this work, (.) vote for recommendations, monthly votes, and your support is my greatest motivation. Mobile phone users please go to m.. to read.
