After Paul dribbled past the half-court, he pressed down on the time slightly at the top of the arc. He had to calculate how many seconds were left for the Rockets after the attack ended.
In the end, he decided that he would use up all the attacking time in this round.
That way, the Laker would only have one chance to attack, and the Rockets would have two!
The ball was passed to Gordon, who feigned a pass after receiving the ball and passed it back to Paul again.
Paul received the ball and made a three-pointer!
"Bang ~"
The sound of the iron hitting also hit the hearts of all the fans present. If the attack did not hit this round, then the next round, it was very likely that the Laker would tie the score.
This was something they did not want to see.
There were still 40 seconds left. After Paul shot the iron, everyone rushed toward the rebound. Su Qing was naturally no exception.
However, when the ball hit the iron, it originally fell in the direction of Capella. In the time it took Su Qing to run two steps, Capella had already pocketed the ball.
The ball was once again given to Paul, who completed the mid-range shot and pulled the gap to five points again.
There were only 34 seconds left to attack.
Su Qing inhaled a deep breath of air.
There was no need to apply for the last pause in a complete attack round.
After the ball was sent out by Kuzma, it was still Su Qing who dribbled the ball and pushed forward.
"Ladies and gentlemen, in the last 30 seconds, with a 5-point difference, will the Rockets go all out to turn the tables? Or would a miracle bless Los Angeles again? Don't blink! Look…Su Qing threw his hand forcefully! A three-pointer! The difference is back to 2 points!"
As Yang Yi spoke, Su Qing had already dribbled past half of the court. There was no pick-and-roll or change of defense.
A simple dry pull, the highest point of the shot, made Tucker, who was defending him, unable to touch it. He could only pray that the ball did not fall into the basket.
It was a pity.
Lady Luck stood on the side of the Laker once again.
“Yes！”
Su Qing secretly clenched his fists. There were still 28 seconds left. Even if the Rockets exhausted this attack time, as long as they did not let the Rockets easily score, then four seconds was enough for him to have a chance to end this game!
When he thought of this, Su Qing's heart suddenly trembled.
He had never thought about what would happen if he missed the shot.
But now, he suddenly had this thought in his mind.
(Los Angeles) 87:89 (Rockets)
The rockets attacked in the last round.
28 seconds.
Paul dribbled forward.
Paul had compassion for this shot.
He chose stability.
This was because he was not confident that he could definitely score this goal, but he was confident that he could exhaust all the time while trying to make a move.
Paul held the ball at the top of the arc, and no one went up to force Paul's position, allowing him to dribble and waste time.
"What are the Laker doing? If this continued, time would be used up!”
"Let's be steady. Four seconds is enough for one attack! There was no need to take the risk of a foul and press Paul to dribble.”
"Shouldn't we at least give Paul some defensive pressure?!”
Indeed.
Now, not only was Paul comfortable dribbling to press the rhythm, but no one was blocking his way to break through.
Su Qing stood by the side with a smile hanging on the corner of his mouth.
This was what he wanted.
Based on what he knew from watching Paul's games for so many years, Paul would generally not choose to shoot under such circumstances.
Unless he was forced to make a mistake…
In the last three seconds, Paul passed the ball to Gordon, who passed it to Tucker, who was in mid-air. Tucker received the ball and made a three-pointer, but in a hurry, he still managed to finish the game.
This way…
The Clippers trailed by two points, leaving them with only four seconds to attack.
Luke Warton applied for a pause.
Su Qing's heart was incomparably throbbing. Previously, time and time again, he had never considered what the consequences would be if he missed.
But this time was different.
This time, this game, this entire series, could be tied to this ball.
If they lost this opportunity, which was the closest to victory, then it was very likely that their mentality would explode and they would lose the game.
Su Qing let out a long breath and tried to calm his emotions, but his heart rate was completely out of control and gradually rose.
Throwing all thoughts to the back of his mind, Su Qing took the tactical board and began the tactical arrangements for the last four seconds of the match.
Luke Horton willingly gave the tactical board to Su Qing and even had a happy expression.
" This is the difference between coaches!"
Looking at the close-up of the tactics arranged by both sides, the fans could not help but sigh.
……
The sixth chapter!
