Chapter 630 Doncic: Differential Treatment, Is That It!
The Mavericks were already weak at center today, managing only an unbelievable two offensive rebounds in the first half.
At this moment, Towns held Kleber tightly behind him, gripping his jersey with both hands behind his back to prevent him from jumping.
But this would prevent Towns from jumping.
Fortunately, the Nets still have Durant.
Durant jumped high to grab the rebound, and immediately saw Wang Xiucheng had already shaken off Doncic and started running.
Doncic reached out and pulled Wang Xiucheng to slow him down, then immediately let go.
In a flash, Durant's pass seemed to lack power; the basketball didn't fly in front of Wang Xiucheng, but landed to his side.
Fortunately, Doncic pulled Wang Xiucheng back, preventing him from gaining speed and giving Wang Xiucheng a chance to reach for the basketball.
But Doncic also had a chance to steal the ball at that moment.
With Wang Xiucheng behind him, Doncic had no choice but to dive out to get to the ball before Wang Xiucheng!
Without a second thought, Doncic lunged forward to grab the basketball.
But Wang Xiucheng was one step ahead, touching the basketball with his palm first.
With a snap, Wang Xiucheng slapped the ball forward and quickly chased after it.
Doncic's intended shot at the basketball missed its target entirely, causing him to lose his balance and stumble towards the edge of the court.
Stallone's three daughters, Sofia, Sistine, and Scarlett, were so frightened that they immediately stood up and ran to either side.
In an instant, the three chairs were empty.
With a thud, Doncic collapsed onto three chairs.
Swish!
Just then, the sound of the basketball going through the net rang out.
The three women, their hearts pounding and still not calmed down, didn't have time to look at Doncic; instead, they looked towards the court.
At this moment, Wang Xiucheng withdrew his hand.
His position was about a meter outside the three-point line.
Clearly, Wang Xiucheng made a three-pointer and it went in.
One three-pointer, and one assist to Durant for two points.
With these 5 points, the Nets now lead 64-47 by 17 points.
The three women excitedly hugged each other and jumped up.
As for Doncic, who was lying on the chair, they didn't even look at him.
Stallone stood up, helped Doncic up, and patted him on the back. "Beautiful save!"
Doncic looked utterly exasperated!
You just said the same thing to Wang Xiucheng, right?
The next moment, Doncic looked at Stallone's three very famous and beautiful daughters.
The three women all dodged away when they saw him lunging at them.
But just now, Wang Xiucheng also rushed over in the same way, but they reached out and hugged him instead.
It seemed as if they were afraid that Wang Xiu would suffer any harm.
Especially Stallone's youngest daughter, whose face still looks so innocent, had just hugged Wang Xiucheng's head.
Why is there such a big difference in treatment when it's a different person?
What am I lacking compared to that guy?
Doncic walked back onto the court looking unhappy.
Stallone slowly sat down, supporting his lower back.
Damn it, I've strained my back!
In the TNT commentary booth, O'Neal and Barkley were already laughing so hard they were doubled over.
Seeing Doncic's jealous expression, the two couldn't wait to get close enough to interview him right now.
Moreover, when Doncic lunged to the sidelines, the people on the sidelines scattered like birds and beasts – a scene that O'Neal was all too familiar with!
Sure enough, every time Wang Xiucheng and Doncic met, a new topic would emerge!
The entire stadium was now standing, clapping and screaming.
Some fans have even started chanting "MVP"!
Thanks to Wang Xiucheng's fast break three-pointer, the Nets led 64-47 with 18 seconds left in the first half, a 17-point advantage.
"Change positions, replace Wang."
Kidd yelled at Doncic on the court, urging him to seize the last offensive opportunity.
In the final minute of the first half, the Mavericks had possession twice but failed to score a single point.
Instead, the Nets launched two fast breaks.
One scored two points, and the other three!
The Nets have scored 5 points!
As expected, the Celtics were right!
Among the best ways to break Wang Xiucheng's "time", another is to keep Wang Xiucheng away from the ball carrier and not give him the opportunity to intercept the ball and launch a counterattack!
Clearly, the Mavericks failed to do that.
But time was running out, and the Mavericks still had possession of the ball. Kidd didn't want to waste another timeout, so he could only resort to yelling.
He shouted, and Doncic heard it, as did Wang Xiucheng.
Switching defenses on yourself?
Wang Xiucheng understood; Kidd had adopted the Celtics' tactics.
This time, Doncic had the ball, and Wang Xiucheng was still guarding him.
Irving came over to cover, and after several attempts, while avoiding being double-teamed, Irving finally managed to trade Wang Xiucheng away.
Doncic was facing Westbrook at this moment.
There are 10 seconds left.
After wasting a few more seconds, Doncic used his rhythm to drive into the paint, then suddenly stepped back and shot.
With a loud slap, Westbrook, who was prepared, swatted the ball away.
Kidd's voice was so loud that Wang Xiucheng heard it, and Westbrook naturally heard it too.
Moreover, Westbrook was absolutely certain that Doncic would take the shot himself.
Today is a game between him and Wang Xiucheng, with Gracie also present. Given Doncic's personality, how could he give this last shot opportunity to anyone else?
So Westbrook took a gamble!
He bet that Doncic would step back, so he controlled the distance on the side in advance, and then jumped half a step ahead when Doncic stepped back.
Then, Westbrook, who was in the air, happened to be there!
Although he is not as tall as Doncic, he still has explosive power.
Only three seconds left!
Westbrook was still in the air, but Wang Xiucheng was not far away!
At this moment, Wang Xiucheng took a step and shook off Irving, then swung his arms and rushed over.
Irving, who is known for his speed, was actually behind Wang Xiucheng from the start.
This left him only able to watch helplessly as Wang Xiucheng charged out like a cheetah, then dribbled the basketball away with a single swipe.
With two thuds, Wang Xiucheng dribbled the ball twice before crossing the center line.
There was only one second left!
Wang Xiucheng took a step forward like a long jumper, raising the basketball with his ball-handling hand and stepping on the net logo with one foot.
With another step, Wang Xiucheng reached a distance of one step beyond the three-point line!
Then, with a whistle, the first half ended.
And the basketball in Wang Xiucheng's hand just happened to leave his grasp.
The closest person, Gracie, wasn't sure if the ball left her hand within the allotted time, but she still held up three fingers to indicate that it was a three-pointer!
The basketball streaked across the sky above Barclays Center like a shooting star!
Everyone looked up, as if they had stopped breathing.
Before everyone's eyes, the meteor, trailing a fiery tail, flew towards the basketball hoop.
Swish!
A crisp sound sounded!
The meteor fell precisely into the calm, still water of the basket, creating a splash!
Three-pointer, in!
