Wei Guo didn't have time to think about why there was such a special spectator on the sidelines.

He rushed towards the audience...

Amidst the horrified gazes of the audience, he reached out and intercepted the ball.

"Phew~~~"

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

Wei Guo, holding the basketball, asked, "Buddy, did I scare you?"

"Thank you..."

An audience member whispered, "I'm your fan."

"What are you doing...?"

Wei Guo pointed to the wheelchair; the audience member looked to be in very poor health.

The audience member, head drooping, said dejectedly, "ALS (Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis)."

"come on!"

Wei Guo casually offered encouragement: "It will be alright."

......

"Defend the country!"

"Defend the country!"

"Defend the country!"

......

Thunderous applause erupted in the stadium as the away fans recognized Wei Guo's thrilling save.

The Mavericks inbound the ball.

Terry was stunned by Wei Guo's slap and hadn't recovered yet when Nowitzki received the ball and went one-on-one against Marion, taking a one-legged jump shot.

"Whoosh!!!"

The basketball went into the net.

63:65!!

Before they could even celebrate, the Suns quickly inbounded the ball from the baseline. Nash dribbled twice before making a long pass, which Wei Guo, who had already run to the frontcourt, received and made a layup.

"Whoosh!!!"

The basketball went into the net.

This is Nash's 15th assist of the game, and he could break his career-high assist record tonight.

The Mavericks made a turnover on the inbound pass!

Before Terry could even receive the ball, Marion appeared out from behind him and stole it. After the steal, Marion didn't attack the ball directly, but instead dribbled towards his own basket!

This is some crazy move...

This completely baffled Terry and Dampier, and the two of them still wanted to chase after them.

If Marion crosses the half-court line, it's backcourt time, and possession needs to be returned to the Mavericks. Nash sprints over, shouting, "Give me the ball!"

Marion instantly sobered up!

He passed the ball to Nash, and Terry and Dampier were also led astray by Marion, leaving the paint completely empty.

Gentry slapped his forehead and said, "Is Toronto People's Hospital any good? It's been two weeks, and Marion is still acting crazy. Is there really nothing wrong with his head?"

Ever since Howard hit him on the back of the head with a basketball, Marion still occasionally makes mistakes during games. For example, in this play, Marion successfully stole the ball and could have gone straight for a layup, but instead he dribbled the ball toward his own basket, leaving Terry and Dampier completely bewildered.

like...

Marion is a player for the Dallas Mavericks.

If Nash hadn't cleared the ball in time, running across half-court to receive it, Marion would have made a very basic mistake and gone back on the court.

......

In the Huaxia live broadcast room, this dramatic scene thrilled Lao Xu and Lao Yang.

Old Xu, "That was such a cunning steal!"

Old Yang said, "I just don't understand why Marion would dribble the ball towards his own basket."

"Old Xu, is number 13 going to dunk?"

Old Yang, "He wouldn't..."

......

Nash dribbled to the basket and made a layup.

"Whoosh!!!"

The basketball went into the net.

67:65!!

The Suns have already taken a 2-point lead, and now it's all about playing good defense to extend that lead.

The Mavericks inbound the ball again!

Terry drove and passed to Finley, who faked out Richardson with a dunk and then took a step-back jumper.

"bang~~~"

The basketball bounced away.

Wei Guo grabbed the defensive rebound, and Nash had already sprinted to the frontcourt. Wei Guo flicked the ball with his arm and accurately delivered it to Nash's hands, which was a fast break!

Richardson followed...

Nash slammed the ball to the floor and turned around gracefully.

"Bang!!!"

Richardson followed up and finished with a beautiful dunk.

69:65!!

Don Nelson still didn't call a timeout. The Mavericks' style of play was fine. No one can guarantee that every shot will go in, even Wei Guo... his field goal percentage is less than 70%.

The gap is widening...

The Suns were in high spirits and were playing tight defense against everyone.

After three passes and two turnovers, the ball was back in Dampier's hands. Dampier's face-up attack missed, and Wei Guo grabbed the defensive rebound!

"Back on defense!"

Don't let Nash get the ball! Old Nelson shouted.

The Suns' fast offensive and defensive transitions are due to the presence of two offensive initiators, Wei Guo and Nash. Once Wei Guo grabs a defensive rebound, they only need two passes to complete a fast break.

Terry was sticking close to Nash...

This time, Wei Guo didn't pass the ball. Instead, he dribbled past two players and drove to the basket. Dampier and Nowitzki jumped to block the shot at the same time, but Wei Guo turned in mid-air to avoid them and then flicked the ball to the three-point corner.

Nash had been lying in wait all along!

As soon as the basketball arrived, Nash immediately launched a three-pointer.

"Whoosh!!!"

How could a three-pointer that's in your grasp not go in?

72:65!!

After the start of the second half, the Suns scored consecutively, while the Mavericks scored two points with a mid-range jumper from Nowitzki.

......

Old Nelson stood on the sidelines, pondering his strategy.

"If this continues, we're going to lose!"

The worst thing in a basketball game is for one side to gain momentum, which can create a small surge in just a few minutes.

The Suns have been very efficient offensively these past few minutes; they haven't missed a single shot. Nash is Don Nelson's protégé, and he knows all too well... In terms of scoring ability alone, Nash is no worse than Stoudemire.

Nash wasn't just a good shooter; he was also an excellent face-up scorer, capable of making shots even when off-balance.

If Nash wants to...

He could even challenge for the top scorer title.

......

Being a young player, Terry seemed a bit impatient.

Nowitzki, with his back to Marion, reached out for the ball, but Terry didn't pass it. Instead, he shot the ball a step away from the three-point line.

"bang~~~"

A very crisp sound of hammering.

Wei Guo easily secured the defensive rebound once again.

This shot enraged Don Nelson, who was so angry he was practically spitting fire. "Do you think you're the defender of the nation?! You're still shooting from ten meters away from the basket! Stackhouse... go and take this idiot out of the game."

Most head coaches in the league are intolerant of any mistakes.

A scalpel is a double-edged sword...

When the score is not far behind, they start to shoot randomly, which means they don't want to play anymore. If they don't want to play, they should just get off the court and not waste a spot.

Stackhouse walked toward the scorer's table, ready to replace Terry.

He didn't try to calm Nelson down; the game was still going on, and talking nonsense was pointless. Winning the game was the key.

......

The third quarter lasted five minutes.

Stackhouse replaced Terry; veterans are still the best in crucial moments.

As soon as they stepped onto the field...

Stackhouse was mismatched against Wei Guo. Facing Wei Guo, who was nearly 20 centimeters taller than him, Stackhouse dribbled skillfully, and the basketball disappeared from his hands the instant he broke through.
