Coach: Coaching the Grizzlies at the beginning, playing the bantam

As the game entered the last thirty seconds, the scores between the Lakers and the Nets were closely tied, as if two heavy hearts were hanging on a thin thread, and any slight fluctuation could break this delicate balance.

Inside the Staples Center, the lights are bright, and the cheers of the audience and the tense atmosphere are interwoven into an invisible net, enveloping this holy land of basketball.

Wall was standing near the center circle at this time, scanning the entire court with his sharp eyes.

Every breath he took seemed to be calculating time, and he incorporated every second precisely into his own rhythm.

As the clock ticked, time slowly wore away until only ten seconds were left.

Wall took a deep breath, as if he was gathering all his strength.

He started suddenly, like a flash of lightning across the night sky, heading straight for the basket.

However, the one defending him this time was no longer his previous opponent, but the Nets' defensive stalwart Mitchell.

Mitchell was agile and followed Wall like a shadow, trying to interfere with his every move.

But Wall had planned it out. His eyes flashed, and he suddenly changed direction and made an exquisite pick-and-roll with his teammates.

His goal was clear, which was to call on Oubre to defend him.

Oubre, the rookie who made a stunning debut in the game, has now become the target of the Lakers' crazy targeting.

He clenched his teeth, his eyes flashing with determination, and vowed to defend this round.

However, Wall was just too fast.

At the moment of pick-and-roll, he seemed to turn into a whirlwind, and with one acceleration he easily left Oubre behind.

Oubre tried hard to catch up, but his pace could not keep up with Wall's rhythm, and he could only watch him rush into the inside.

Inside, Martin was ready to give Wall a head-on blow.

However, Wall seemed to see through his intention. He faced Martin's defense, stretched his body, and forced a layup.

The basketball drew a beautiful arc in the air, then hit the backboard and bounced into the goal.

At that moment, time seemed to stand still, and everyone held their breath and stared, waiting for the basketball to fall.

With a swish, the basketball went into the net and two points were scored!
Moreover, when Martin tried to block the shot, he accidentally hit Wall's forearm. The referee decisively blew the whistle and awarded an additional penalty!
After landing, Wall was so excited that he could hardly contain himself. He raised his arm and kissed his wrist as if to celebrate this wonderful goal.

There was jubilation on the Lakers bench, while the Nets bench fell into a brief silence.

Among them, Cousins ​​frowned, and his eyes revealed a hint of unwillingness and helplessness.

If he was on the court for this shot, he would definitely have interfered with Wall's layup.

Although Martin tried very hard, his height and wingspan were still too much of a disadvantage when playing center.

In the face of absolute talent, there was nothing he could do if he played in the wrong position.

Cousins ​​was in the lowest mood, as if he saw the dawn of victory gradually fading away.

However, at this moment, a voice suddenly sounded beside him, interrupting his thoughts.

"Don't worry, the last quarter is our time."

The person who spoke was Brunson, the young guard of the Nets, who was looking at Cousins ​​with a calm and firm look.

The two brothers had been sitting on the sidelines for a long time because of fouls, but they never lost hope for the game.

Brunson's words were like a warm current flowing into Cousins' heart, rekindling his fighting spirit.

He looked up at Brunson, and their eyes met in the air, as if they had reached some kind of tacit understanding.

"You're right," Cousins ​​nodded, "We still have a chance."

On the court, Wall stood at the free throw line, took a deep breath, and tried to calm his inner turmoil.

His eyes were firm, as if he had already seen the moment the basketball passed through the hoop.

However, fate did not seem to intend for him to score so easily.

With a bang, the free throw hit the edge of the basket and bounced out, missing.

The Lakers fans sighed with regret, while the Nets fans cheered as if they saw the dawn of victory.

However, the game is far from over, and every round may be the key to changing the situation.

Oubre jumped high and protected the backcourt rebound.

There was a determination gleam in his eyes, as if he was ready to face the challenge.

At this time, the time on the timer showed 8 seconds. The Lakers quickly retreated to the backcourt, while Durant, Mitchell and other Nets players rushed to the frontcourt like cheetahs.

Oubre looked around and found that no one came to help him.

He smiled slightly, and a feeling of pride surged in his heart.

As a striker, he also has the ability to control the ball, and he decided to advance with the ball himself.

The Lakers obviously did not make any targeted deployment for this, and their focus was on Durant.

Therefore, when Oubre dribbled all the way to the Lakers' half, he did not encounter any obstacles.

At this moment, the only person standing in his way was Lakers starting power forward Kuzma.

Kuzma is tall and fierce on defense, and is a solid barrier in the Lakers' interior.

However, Oubre showed no fear at all.

After he dribbled the ball across half court, he carefully observed the situation on the field.

He saw Durant was surrounded by Lakers players and didn't have many good chances.

So he decided to come by himself.

Oubre's drastic change of direction caused Kuzma's defensive focus to shift.

His movements were quick and accurate, as if he had practiced them countless times.

Then, Oubre exerted force with his right foot and passed Kuzma directly.

His speed was extremely fast, like a flash of lightning across the night sky.

This left Kuzma behind and caused the Lakers' defense to collapse instantly.

Oubre rushed into the free throw line, his eyes flashing with determination.

He knew he only had one chance and he had to take it.

So, he took three steps and jumped high, and before Davis and others could react, with a bang, he made another powerful one-handed dunk!

This dunk seemed to shock the entire stadium.

At that moment, time seemed to stand still, and everyone held their breath and stared, waiting for the basketball to fall.

When the basketball hit the net, the entire Staples Center was boiling!

The Nets fans cheered as if they had seen the dawn of victory.

The Lakers fans fell silent, unable to accept this cruel fact. However, the game is cruel and beautiful.

It is full of variables and unknowns, making it impossible to predict what will happen in the next second.

Oubre's dunk not only responded to Wall's failed free throw, but also pushed the Nets' morale to a climax.

His performance was so outstanding that he seemed to have dominated the court.

The Lakers seemed a little flustered and lost, their rhythm was disrupted and their offense began to become messy.

After this dunk, there were only 0.8 seconds left in the third quarter.

This time is not enough for the Lakers to complete a complete attack. They can only catch the ball and throw it, and there is a 99.9% chance that it will not hit the target.

However, even so, the Lakers players did not give up.

They stared at the basketball closely, trying to create a miracle at the last minute.

However, the miracle did not happen.

When Wall received the pass, he didn't even have a chance to shoot before the time ran out.

Soon, the whistle sounded to end the third quarter, and the Nets returned to the bench with a 7-point lead.

At this moment, the Nets players seemed to be heroes.

They proved their worth with their strength and performance, and also brought hope of victory to the team.

The Lakers players looked a little frustrated and lost.

As the whistle sounded to end the third quarter, the Nets ended the quarter with a 7-point lead, shocking everyone present.

In the domestic commentary room, commentators Yang Yi and Wang Meng couldn't help but cheer loudly, their voices filled with excitement and excitement.

Especially in the last round, Oubre once again completed an explosive breakthrough dunk, leaving the Lakers with only 0.8 seconds. This scene made them praise Oubre to the sky.

"Oh my, Oubre's shot was so beautiful!" Yang Yi couldn't help but shout, "He's just flying in the sky and hiding in the ground, he can do anything! He didn't play in the first half of the game today, but after being temporarily brought on by coach Lu Yong in the third quarter of the second half, he quickly got into the game state. This boy really has a spirit of not admitting defeat!"

Wang Meng also nodded and added: "That's right, Oubre's performance today was amazing! Not only did he perform explosively in the previous two attacks, but he also took over the game in the last attack. Durant was the focus at the time, and the Lakers' defense was all focused on him, but Oubre was not afraid at all, and he rushed in and slammed it! This ball is simply a magical shot!"

The two became more and more excited as they talked, as if they had experienced the game themselves.

They know that Oubre's performance this time is not just a simple score, but also a huge boost to the morale of the Nets.

At such a critical moment, being able to have such a player stand up is undoubtedly the biggest encouragement for the team.

"Besides, look at the resilience of the Nets!" Yang Yi continued, "Today the referee has been targeting the Nets, and the calls were very unfair. But even so, the Nets still relied on their breath and led the Lakers by 7 points after three quarters! What does this show? It shows that the Nets have an indomitable spirit and a belief that they will never give up!"

Wang Meng nodded in agreement: "Yes, the Nets' performance today was fantastic! When the two main players, Brunson and Cousins, were bothered by fouls and almost dared not play, their substitutes made extraordinary contributions after they came on the court. This shows that the Nets are very strong as a whole, and every one of their players can contribute to the team."

When they talked about this, they couldn't help but applaud the Nets again.

They know that this game is of great significance to the Nets.

If they can lift the championship trophy at the Lakers' home court, it will be the best reward for their hard work and dedication.

And now, they have taken a solid step forward.

"Speaking of which, this young man Oubre is really impressive!" Yang Yi said again, "He had no chance to play in the first half of the game, but when Coach Lu Yong sent him on the court, he immediately showed his strength. What does this show? It shows that Coach Lu Yong has a unique vision!"

Wang Meng smiled and said, "Haha, Coach Lu Yong is an old hand! He is naturally very sharp in judging people. But having said that, Oubre's performance today is indeed worthy of praise. Not only did he perform well on the offensive end, but he also put a lot of pressure on the Lakers on the defensive end. Such a player is really rare!"

The two of them became more and more interested as they talked, as if they had forgotten the passage of time.

They know that the game is far from over.

In the following fourth quarter, the Nets need to continue to work hard to maintain their lead and ultimately win the game.

However, they also know that the Nets have strong strength and tenacious will.

No matter what difficulties and challenges they face, they can always stand up and contribute their strength to the team.

Just like Oubre, he stood up at the critical moment and proved his worth with his own strength.

After Oubre left the court, all the players stood up and expressed their congratulations and praise.

They surrounded Oubre and patted his shoulders as if he was the hero of the night.

Brunson and Cousins, who were sitting on the sidelines, touched Oubre's head with their hands, their eyes full of approval.

"Well done, brother," Brunson said with a smile, "You played so well after you came on the court, like a surprise soldier, allowing us to continue to output firepower and lead the Lakers."

Cousins ​​also nodded and added: "That's right, brother, your performance today was amazing. Not only did you perform well on the offensive end, but you also gave us a lot of help on the defensive end. Keep it up, brother, we still need you."

As Oubre listened to his teammates' praise, he felt a warm feeling in his heart.

He knew that his performance today had indeed exceeded expectations, but he also knew that this was just the beginning.

He also needs to continue to perform well in the fourth quarter to help the team win the final victory.

At this time, head coach Lu Yong also came over with a satisfied smile on his face.

He patted Oubre on the shoulder and said seriously: "Oubre, you performed very well today. Your appearance in the last moments of the third quarter was like a sharp knife stabbing into the heart of the Lakers. You kept our offensive output going and put us ahead of the Lakers. In the fourth quarter, I will continue to put you on the court, but you have to be careful, because you may become the target of the Lakers' offense next."

Oubre nodded, indicating that he understood what Lu Yong meant.

He knew that he had played at a top level as a surprise player, but the Lakers would definitely attack him.

He needs to prepare himself for the next challenge.

Lu Yong looked at Oubre's determined eyes and his heart was filled with confidence.

He knew that this young man had outstanding talent and potential, and as long as he was given enough opportunities and trust, he would be able to perform even better.

Then, Lu Yong used the short timeout to rearrange the tactics on both offense and defense.

He stood in front of the players and said loudly: "There is only one quarter left in the game, and we are currently leading. However, this does not mean that we can let our guard down. The Lakers are a very strong team with outstanding players and coaching staff. Therefore, everyone must continue to work hard to win this game and win the championship trophy at the Lakers' home court!"

As soon as Lu Yong finished speaking, the players responded one after another.

They know that this game means a lot to them.

It would be really satisfying if I could lift the championship trophy at the Lakers' home court.

"Tonight, both the referee and the Lakers made us sick." Lu Yong continued, "They tried to use various means to disrupt our game rhythm and mentality. However, we were not defeated by them. We successfully led them with outstanding performance and teamwork. So, even if it is not for the championship, for the sake of this breath in our hearts, we must win tonight! Teach them a lesson and let them know how powerful we are!"

Lu Yong's words aroused the fighting spirit and passion of the players.

Everyone said that they would try their best to win the game.

As we all know, this game is not just a sports competition, but also a spiritual baptism and growth.

They need to prove their strength with victory.

Under Lu Yong's tactical deployment, the Nets players began to prepare for the fourth quarter.

They listened carefully to Lu Yong's explanation and analysis, trying to remember every detail.

Only by being fully prepared and responding well can you perform at your best in the competition. (End of this chapter)
