Start by Maxing Out the Attack Talent, Kobe Is Jealous

In the 2001 NBA Draft, the Philadelphia 76ers selected Wei Guo with the 58th overall pick in the second round, from Georgetown University. With that statement, Wei Guo became the second Chinese pla...

Chapter 254 Billups's near-game-winning shot!

The cheers were much quieter; the atmosphere was too oppressive!

The only sounds in the arena were the players' shouts, the screech of shoes on the floor, and the song "Bullfight".

"Tell me, how did you steal my ball?"

Tell me, why did you hit my hand?

Tell me, is it that you don't want to live?

Tell me, how will you face me?

I flung the ball away, my heart brimming with anger.

I've wanted to beat you up for ages, don't even think about leaving...

......

"The Nets are calling a timeout!"

Gentry called a timeout!

With 1 minute and 37 seconds left in the game, Anthony hit a three-pointer to tie the score.

......

In the Huaxia live broadcast room, Lao Xu and Lao Yang analyze the match.

Old Xu: "Wei Guo's average score in the fourth quarter is 13.1, ranking first in history. There is currently no data to show how many points Wei Guo averages in the last minute of the game."

Old Yang, "The accuracy rate of Wei Guo's killer move is 100%!"

"Old Xu said, 'The situation is still very favorable for the Nets. They are a team that can fight tough battles.'"

......

"This offensive play must be solid. Mourning and Jefferson spread out, let Wei go one-on-one!"

Gentry's tactics are simple and effective. The main reason he called a timeout was to give the players a breather. Apart from Wei Guo, the rest of the Nets players were nearing their physical limits.

Brown is also seriously planning this defensive strategy!

Who doesn't want to win the game...?

Brown didn't want the game to go into overtime. He had seen the national team play in overtime before, and it was hell for the opponent and heaven for the national team!

A long pause has ended.

The Nets inbounded the ball from the baseline. Hamilton blocked Wei Guo from receiving the ball. Mourning passed the ball to Stockton, who dribbled to the frontcourt. Wei Guo quickly rushed to the basket!

"Hey..."

Gentry shouted, "Jefferson, watch your position!"

Jefferson understood Gentry's meaning. He positioned himself at the 45-degree angle three-point line, not to receive the ball, but to set a screen for Wei Guo!

Wei Guo reached the basket, made a back-and-forth run, and was back beyond the three-point line. Jefferson blocked Hamilton, who was chasing after him, while Anthony was completely outmaneuvered by Wei Guo. Stockton practically handed the ball to Wei Guo hand-to-hand.

After receiving the ball, Wei Guo took a step back!

accelerate...

Lost Steps...

Dunk...

"Bang!!!"

Wei Guo grabbed the rim with one hand, swung it like a swing, and then landed!

"Defend the country~~~"

The DJ shouted Wei Guo's name loudly!

93:91!!

The Nets were leading by 2 points. Once Wei Guo got going, no one could stop him. What's more... Wei Guo not only had the physique, he also had the skills.

The other four Nets players have returned to defense!

Pistons on offense!

The Nets were on high alert; they had to defend this ball. If their lead grew to more than 5 points, the Pistons would basically have no chance of a comeback.

Billups was still two steps from the three-point line when Stockton began to press him defensively!

Rashid came out to receive the ball...

He had a chance to shoot a three-pointer the moment he received the ball, but he hesitated for a moment and did not shoot. Instead, he patiently controlled the ball and waited for Hamilton to run out of space before passing the ball to Hamilton!

Hamilton vs. Wei Guo!!!

Don't cower in a corner, speak up if you're unhappy.

What's with the attitude? Don't you even know anything about basketball...?

The music is still echoing in the stadium...

Wei Guo reached for the ball, Hamilton took a step back, made a sudden change of direction, and jumped up!

"I'm going to be in trouble..."

Brown panicked; this was a terrible shot selection!

Hamilton didn't shoot. After he jumped, he saw Wei Guo jump as well and slammed the ball to the ground. The basketball bounced up and landed in Ben Wallace's hands. Ben Wallace quickly passed the ball!

Anthony receives the ball beyond the three-point line and shoots!

Time has stopped...

The basketball kept flying through the air, and for Brown, it was a really enjoyable parabola.

"Whoosh!!!"

The basketball swished through the net!

92:93!!

Carmelo Anthony's buzzer-beating three-pointer gave the Pistons a one-point lead.

......

Only 56 seconds left in the game!

Several Pistons players high-fived Anthony, as if they had won the game.

Gentry did not call a timeout.

The Nets inbound the ball from the baseline. Wei Guo dribbles the ball up the court and passes it to Kiddles in the corner. The pressure of shooting that ball is immense.

"Will Kiddles dare to shoot?"

The Pistons players were puzzled: why would Wei Guo pass the ball at this moment?

Kiddles really jumped.

Then...

The Pistons players saw that Kiddles was throwing the ball to the opposite corner, a very unreasonable and risky move that was too easy to make mistakes. So when Kiddles received the ball, the Pistons simply gave up on defending the opposite corner.

By the time they realized what was happening and chased after the basketball, Wei Guo had already appeared in the corner opposite Kiddles, received the ball, and shot!

"Whoosh!!!"

The basketball swished through the net!

95:93!!

This extremely risky tactic was successful.

Brown quickly called a timeout; there were only 35 seconds left in the game.

Wei Guo once achieved the incredible feat of scoring 14 points in 35 seconds, but the Pistons don't have players of that caliber, so Brown needs to devise a good offensive strategy.

......

"Brother Wei, I was so nervous when I received the pass just now!"

Kiddles touched his chest. "Why did you suddenly pass the ball to me?"

"I believe you will make the most reasonable choice."

"Hahaha..."

Kiddles laughed and said, "It's good that I saw you running to the opposite corner, it reminded me of how you always passed me the ball when you were teaching me how to shoot threes."

Gentry interrupted their conversation, "No matter what offensive tactics Brown sets up, we just need to play good zone defense and not leave anyone open. Wei, you and Jefferson switch defensive positions. This rebound is very important. We can't give the Pistons a second chance."

"good!"

Wei Guo and Jefferson nodded at the same time!

During the timeout, the players were drinking beverages to replenish their energy.

......

The timeout is over, the game continues!

Billups dribbled to the frontcourt, and Rasheed set a screen for Billups outside the three-point line. Billups moved to the left, touched the three-point line with his left foot, and then suddenly took a step back.

A three-pointer is being taken!

This offensive decision surprised everyone. The Pistons had plenty of time on the shot clock, but they chose to rush a three-pointer.

Only Gentry thought of it...

He had Wei Guo and Jefferson switch defensive positions because he was worried about this, so he had to protect the rebounds. But Gentry, who had guessed this, clenched his fists and did not feel proud.

The basketball traced an arc, gripping the hearts of millions of fans.

"Whoosh!!!"

The basketball swished through the net once again.

95:96!!

The Pistons took a one-point lead with 29 seconds remaining in the game.
