Chapter 1221 The Mavericks Can’t Hold on Any Longer!

Once he reached the right wing of the frontcourt, Nowitzki didn't move. He faced Ray Allen at the three-point line and asked for the ball from the top of the key.

Ray Allen immediately went around, but Nowitzki made a simple reverse run. Kidd's pass reached Nowitzki's hands, and he got the open space without any defense.

"brush!"

Three-point shot, hit.

76:75, the Mavericks lead by 1 point.

"yeah!"

Much of the media cheered.

"Shh!"

Suns fans gave the media a huge boo.

But these media don't take it seriously and have different stances. They can't support Li Ba, so they can't support the Suns.

The Suns attacked, Haslem blocked Stoudemire, and Li Ba blocked Chandler. At this time, Nash's ball arrived.

Li Ba immediately dribbled the ball once after receiving the ball, and then made a strong backstroke.

Chandler was not strong enough and had a higher center of gravity, so he was pushed back by Li Ba to the reasonable collision zone.

Then, Li Ba immediately turned around and jumped up, taking advantage of Chandler's unsteady footing and being unable to take off, and dunked him.

"Beep!"

The referee blew the whistle, Chandler blocked the foul, and Li Ba added a free throw.

"Beautiful! The Hammers didn't exert much force in the first three quarters. It's time to explode." Yu Jia shouted excitedly.

"This is... Chandler's third foul. The hammer didn't play much inside, so there weren't many fouls." Zhang Lili said.

Li Ba made an extra free throw, 76:78, and the Suns led by 2 points.

Dallas offense.

Everyone except Chandler.

Stoudemire and Terry have very strong offensive abilities, and with Nowitzki, their offensive positions are outside. The Suns cannot double-team one of them, so they can only defend alone.

At this time, Stoudemire was running on the left wing, and Haslem followed.

"Amazing Stoudemire can only be defended by Xiao Ha, otherwise Xiao Ha will be directly beaten when he guards Chandler under the basket. He is almost the same height." Zhang Lili shouted.

Stoudemire caught the ball, turned around and made a fake jump, shook Haslem away, and then shot a jumper.

But at this moment, Li Ba's help arrived and caught the ball thrown by Stoudemire with a slap.

It turned out that the moment Kidd passed the ball, Li Ba struck decisively.

"yeah!"

The wonderful assist defense and blocking made the scene boiling.

Li Ba took advantage of the situation and played a fast break. Kidd and Terry on the outside of the Mavericks had no way to defend. Nowitzki on the other wing could not keep up with Li Ba's speed. Even if he could keep up, he would not dare to block Li Ba's strong impact. .

In this case, Li Ba's fast break was unstoppable, and with a bang, the Mavericks' basket was sunk by a foot.

"yeah!"

At this time, Li Ba sent a super dunk, which made the Suns fans in the audience excited again.

"Look at Iron Hammer's momentum, he is still very energetic!" Yu Jia said excitedly.

76:80, the Suns lead by 4 points and the Mavericks attack.

Stoudemire's shooting area was still too close to Liba, so Nowitzki took over the ball. He made a turn-over jumper from outside the right-wing three-point line and hit a three-pointer, 79:80, still one point behind.

The moment before the ball entered the basket, Li Ba went straight to the fast break.

Because the physical fitness of both sides was not very good in the final quarter, Li Ba still had the physical fitness to play fast break tactics. If he could maintain it, this would be an almost fatal blow to the Mavericks.

Stoudemire tried his best to keep up with Li Ba. At this time, Nash passed the ball in the backcourt. Li Ba caught the ball and flew up with Stoudemire on his back. He knocked Stoudemire over in the air. With a bang, he slammed his arms again and sank. The Mavericks basket.

Amid the cheers of the audience, Stoudemire climbed up with difficulty. The landing after the mid-air collision caused some problems with his knees.

"This is the power of the hammer!"

Seeing Stoudemire's difficulty, Sarver, sitting on the sidelines, sighed.

He was very grateful to the original head coach Frank for bringing Li Ba to the Suns. He was also grateful to Colangelo for giving Li Ba a contract, and then chose to stay when Li Ba had conflicts and competition with Stoudemire. Liba.

He didn't believe the nonsense that Li Ba's peak period was about to end. After playing for so many seasons, Li Ba had not even suffered a minor injury. Like LeBron James, with such a strong physique, he would definitely be at his peak. very long.

It's just that this year's labor negotiations make him a little worried.

But there is no big worry, because he knows that Li Ba doesn't really want to leave here, as long as he can keep up with the contracts offered by other teams, and give him full respect and some rights from the team.

In the TNT live broadcast booth, Barkley said: "The Hammers are starting to explode strongly. If the Mavericks' inside line can't hold on, I think they will be wiped out in one wave."

"So can the Mavericks interior line withstand the impact of the hammer?" Kenny Smith said.

The two looked at each other and laughed suddenly.

Next, Li Ba continued to attack the Mavericks' basket on the offensive end.

In the positional battle, he chose to force the kill and soon gave Chandler four fouls.

In the transition between offense and defense after grabbing a backcourt rebound, he played a fast break. This time Stoudemire didn't dare to block it, making his fast break even more unscrupulous and unstoppable.

On the defensive end, he mainly controlled rebounds, and at the same time used his strong defensive ability to drive the Mavericks' offense far away from the paint area, reducing the Mavericks' outside shooting percentage.

Although Nowitzki was very efficient when facing Ray Allen, he still couldn't withstand Li Ba's nearly 100% shooting rate. In the 6th minute, 82:93, the Suns led by double digits. .

It was the Suns' attack again. Li Ba got the ball under the basket and beat Chandler again.

Haslem's offensive screen was not done well this time, allowing Stoudemire to run over and double-team Li Ba with Chandler.

Stoudemire persisted, his knees were getting more and more painful.

But he didn't want to leave the court, he wanted to reach the finals, he hadn't played in the finals yet.

Li Ba exerted his strength, relying on his absolute strength to force the two people apart, forced himself to jump up, and dunked Stoudemire with a bang.

Stoudemire jumped to block the shot, but failed to keep up with Li Ba, and was directly dunked on the spot.

"Stoudemire has four fouls, and Chandler has four fouls too." Yu Jia shouted.

Li Ba made the free throw, 82:96, the Suns led by 14 points.

Looking back, Nowitzki made a three-pointer and hit a goal.

The Suns attacked.

Stoudemire's knees were getting more and more unbearable, he couldn't push Haslem away and double-team Li Ba.

In this way, Li Ba played Chandler singles, first arched and then dunked, which was very simple. He arched Chandler to make him lose his center of gravity, and then dunked him, scoring and causing damage.

Chandler, like Stoudemire just now, was directly dunked by Li Ba's strength and was called for a blocking foul.

"Five fouls! The Mavericks can't stand it anymore." Yu Jia shouted excitedly.

"Chandler's physical fitness is not good. He only plays for more than 20 minutes per game. He played for 25 minutes today. Now his physical fitness can't stand it anymore. He can't stand the hammer at all. If the Mavericks don't replace him, he probably won't be able to defend well next time. If he defends again, he will probably get injured. His physical fitness is very poor. Once his physical fitness is gone, he is most likely to get injured." Zhang Heli analyzed.
