Chapter 45 Dallas's Gunfire

Although the Lakers successfully pulled back a game in Los Angeles, a day later, the Mavericks crushed the Lakers' last hope with their suffocating overall strength.

At the Staples Center, watching the final score of 127 to 112, Barkley commented on Game 4 between the Lakers and the Mavericks: "The Lakers made every effort they could tonight.

But that's just how reality is.

Effort doesn't guarantee success, and failure isn't necessarily because you didn't perform well."

Falling behind 1-3 in the series, almost everyone thought the Lakers were doomed after this night.

In Game 4, Su Feng, Marion, and Gasol played the entire game to fight for a glimmer of hope.

And on the sidelines, Coach Lue repeatedly requested timeouts to change tactics, giving the Lakers a chance to breathe on the court.

However, whether it was team chemistry or overall strength, this Lakers team was clearly not on the same level as the Mavericks.

Especially in Game 4, after the Mavericks players collectively calmed down, they always managed to seize the defensive flaws of the Lakers, who were trying to fight them to the death.

Moreover, as the game progressed, the Mavericks' advantage in player rotation gradually became apparent.

Online, Chinese netizens joked about this:

No matter how good your Divine Zhao Yun is, can you kill back and forth forty-nine times at Changban Slope in one night?

"The Mavericks making substitutions is called tactical adjustment.

Because their substitutes can not only play, but also have unique skills.

But the Lakers making substitutions?

Sorry...

That's called suicide!"

Although this series had only been played for 4 games, after the 4th game, Su Feng's fatigue level had even caught up with when he had finished the Eastern Conference Finals against the Celtics last year.

And Kobe, who used to clamor for Su Feng to cook for him every day, didn't even dare to eat a slice of pizza since this series started.

Because looking at Su Feng, who was almost turning into a "mummy"...

Kobe now just wanted to grab an RPG and kill the "keyboard warriors'" mothers.

It was widely believed that this series between the Lakers and the Mavericks would end in Game 5.

Because according to the schedule, the next Western Conference Semifinals between the Lakers and the Mavericks would move to Dallas.

Therefore, in the eyes of experts and the media, the Mavericks, who had the advantage of timing, location, and personnel, would not give this tired Lakers team any chance.

After all, if the Mavericks wanted to win the championship this season, they had to look further ahead.

You know, on the night the Lakers flew to Dallas to prepare for Game 5, in the East, the Celtics had already cleanly sent LeBron and his Cavaliers home with a score of 4-0.

Plus, this year in the West, there were also the Trail Blazers, led by Garnett and his three Jordans, blocking the way...

Therefore, the Mavericks must solve the Lakers as quickly as possible to ensure that they had enough energy in the remaining playoff journey this year to launch an attack on the championship.

As the saying goes, one should pursue the defeated enemy with courage, and not imitate the Overlord of Western Chu and spare them out of a false sense of honor.

Because in this life, with the championship case of the "Heat Dynasty" in the NBA, all teams in the NBA were very clear about what sufficient energy meant for a team's championship journey.

In addition, as Su Feng's former mentor, who in this league knew better than John Davis how tenacious his disciple's vitality was?

So, Mr. Su.

No matter what, the Dallas gunfire would not stop until you fell.

Even if the Lakers' position was already riddled with holes.

Even if the Lakers' soldiers had reached their physical limits.

Only when you fell...

Could I sleep soundly.

...

Leading the team to Dallas, feeling the "simple" local customs of Texas...

Before the start of Game 5, in order to recharge their energy to meet the game in the evening, Su Feng and his teammates, who had failed to sleep well last night due to various disturbances from the Dallas people, had to squeeze into the narrow away locker room for a pre-game "meditation".

The desperate reality was already in front of the Lakers.

That night, even Su Feng, who had always been high-spirited, felt what it meant to be at the "end of the road".

But...

Just like John Davis thought.

When the Lakers, led by Su Feng, stepped onto the American Airlines Center Arena...

Looking at those faces that still refused to give up and surrender their weapons...

The Dallas people knew that before they defeated this Lakers team...

The so-called 3-1 lead was not safe at all.

On the court, after the warm-up, the big screen immediately gave the starting lineups for the two teams tonight.

Lakers: Gasol, Big Ben, Marion, Su Feng, Mo Williams.

Mavericks: Chandler, Nowitzki, Prince, Hamilton, Kidd.

Before the game, looking at Big Ben and Su Feng, who had the most determined eyes in the team, Marion, feeling a little shaken in his heart, asked Big Ben: "If it were the Raptors of that year...

How would you play this kind of game?"

Hearing this, after exchanging a glance with Su Feng, Big Ben turned his head and said to Marion: "Find a way, do everything possible, to help Su grab back those shots he missed."

Looking at Big Ben, Marion nodded thoughtfully.

In the center of the court, Gasol and Chandler jumped for the ball to start the game.

With his wingspan and explosive speed, Chandler won the tip-off for the Mavericks.

Kidd dribbled the ball across the half-court.

Prince made a good start for the Mavericks.

Using Nowitzki's screen on the wing, Prince scored the first point for the Mavericks with a three-pointer.

At this time, on CCTV, after sighing, Su Junyang also said: "This is really adding insult to injury, what we fear comes true...

The Mavericks just started the game and hit a three-pointer from the outside.

Next, if the Lakers still want to shrink their defense to save energy, they need to think carefully."

Lakers' offense.

Mo Williams quickly dribbled the ball across the half-court.

But under Kidd's close pressure, Mo Williams found that even wanting to pass the ball to his teammates had become quite difficult.

In order to reduce unnecessary mistakes, Mo Williams did not choose to show off his dribbling skills in front of Kidd.

Instead, after Su Feng took the initiative to come forward to meet him, he quickly transferred the ball over.

In the previous four games, the "critics" undoubtedly underestimated the Mavericks' defense when criticizing this Lakers team.

Due to having sufficient personnel reserves, the Mavericks had adopted a crazy high-post double-teaming strategy against the Lakers for four consecutive games.

You know, this was not just physical torture.

In terms of psychology, this Lakers team had also been devastated in the past four games.

Through relentless confrontation and desperate scrambling, the Mavericks not only forced every Lakers player with the ball to be more cautious than usual when making choices, but also, as the game progressed, their defensive intensity that would never drop...

Would make the Lakers players, after their energy declined, feel what despair was.

On the sidelines, on the Mavericks' bench, after looking up at the timer, Davis turned his gaze to Su Feng, who was calling on his teammates to spread out, and muttered to himself: "Su, do you know what you have taught me in the past few years?"

On the court, Su Feng's first shot of the game went wide.

Chandler secured the rebound for the Mavericks.

"Being merciful to the enemy is being cruel to yourself," Davis continued after a pause.

Swish!

And on the court...

The moment that made the Lakers fans in front of the TV even more desperate arrived with Nowitzki's transition three-pointer.

0 to 6.

In Dallas, in a sea of white, the Mavericks continued their excellent touch from the fourth game.

On the sidelines, Tyronn Lue had quickly walked to the scorer's table.

If the Lakers still failed to score on this possession...

Then Coach Lue knew...

At that time, he would have to call a timeout to disrupt the Mavericks' opening rhythm.

On the court, the Lakers were on offense.

Although Prince, who kept giving Su Feng "French military salutes" to prevent him from receiving the ball, looked very embarrassed, from the effect...

Su Feng was indeed forced to receive the ball away from the three-point line.

In addition, at the moment Su Feng got the ball, Prince silently put his left hand on Su Feng's waist.

This was to prevent Su Feng from suddenly accelerating.

At the same time, it was also an "ancient defensive technique" that you could only use freely when facing Su Feng.

The referee did not sympathize with Su Feng because the Mavericks were leading 3-1 in the series.

Because the old Jewish man in New York knew very well...

Since he had not chosen to take care of the Mavericks in order to increase the ratings of the Finals in the two Finals where the Heat and the Mavericks had met in the past, he could not now choose to favor the Lakers in order to make this series last one more game.

If tonight, Su Feng and his Lakers were destined to bow out.

Then as Su Feng's best brother...

Stern knew.

Rather than a "disgraceful" exit, they needed a "dignified" farewell.

On the court.

Back to the basket.

Turned his head.

Shrugged his shoulders.

Leaned over.

Accelerated.

Pulled the ball.

Emergency stop.

Pull-up jumper.

What is tempering?

American Airlines Center Arena.

Was it the perfect technique in every frame under that high-pressure defense, or the beautiful shot after shouldering all kinds of pressure?

No.

Neither.

At this moment, the reason why Su Feng could complete this beautiful and free pull-up jumper under Prince's defense and under the Mavericks' aggressive defense...

Was just because he practiced hard enough.

And his talent was outstanding enough.

Swish!

2 to 6.

On the sidelines, Coach Lue was relieved because of Su Feng's goal.

But when the Mavericks' suffocating pressure came...

Tonight, what if you are the "God of Basketball"?

On the court, under Big Ben's desperate defense, Nowitzki's one-legged fadeaway was so perfect that you couldn't pick out any flaws.

There were many stars in the NBA.

But there were very few superstars like Su Feng and Nowitzki who could cope with all kinds of situations at any time and place.

Swish!

Dallas, Nowitzki's high fadeaway jumper reignited the scene again.

2 to 8.

Immediately afterward, the Lakers attacked...

While being constantly updated by Su Feng's understanding of basketball, you had to admit that Prince did maximize his various advantages in defense.

For example, this ball.

He never got faked out when Su Feng broke through with the ball, and at the moment Su Feng shot the ball, he even almost touched Su Feng with his super long wingspan.

But it was just the difference of a fingernail...

No matter how hard Prince tried, he could not overcome it.

4 to 8.

On the court, Su Feng's emergency stop jumper also went in.

On TNT, Barkley, who saw this scene, said with emotion: "I don't know how many more shots like this Su can make tonight.

But I know that as long as he has a trace of strength...

Then he will definitely fight to the end!"

How many more shots like this can Su Feng make?

At first, the Mavericks fans were not very concerned about this.

Because in the previous four games, no matter how many points Su Feng scored, the Mavericks had won three of them.

However...

In the first quarter, when Su Feng indifferently scored those high-difficulty goals for the Lakers like a machine in one attack after another...

In Dallas, some Mavericks fans had already started to sweat on their foreheads.

Although after the first quarter, the Lakers, playing away from home, were 29 to 35 behind the Mavericks by 6 points...

But the painful lessons from facing Su Feng's team in the past...

Appeared in front of the Mavericks fans like a revolving lantern at this moment.

"Don't be afraid!

Our substitutes are very strong this season!"

Before the start of the second quarter, looking at Su Feng, who was still not resting on the Lakers' side, the Mavericks fans silently comforted themselves.

On the court, in the second quarter, the Lakers attacked first.

After using Mbenga's screen at the top of the arc to dribble hard and retreat, Su Feng, who was almost floating in the air, did not hesitate.

He gently supported the basketball with his left hand.

He gently flicked his right hand towards the basket.

Swish!

In order to get rid of the defense and create a shooting opportunity, no one knew how Su Feng managed to maintain his shooting form in such a fast-paced movement...

And with the basketball swishing through the net...

It was clear that Su Feng, who would take the initiative to turn to the Mavericks' bench after shooting a three-pointer in Game 3, was even more terrifying...

But at this moment...

Davis, who suddenly remembered something...

Couldn't help but feel a thud in his heart.

Because as a master who understood Su Feng.

Davis knew very well...

This meant that Su Feng really wanted to shoot the Mavericks to death tonight.

Just like in Three-Body Problem, when a civilization wants to destroy another civilization, it will never say hello to you in advance.

"Dignified" farewell?

Sorry.

As a scoring machine with no emotion.

Su Feng had never thought that he needed a "dignified" farewell tonight.

Because when he stepped onto the court.

Winning the ball was his only goal.

Ha, despair?

In Su Feng's opinion...

In this world, there could not be anything more desperate than when he was beaten up by Jordan.

Because at least...

In this series, it was he who had been torturing Prince.

But in his rookie season...

If it wasn't for Jordan's amazing missed shots...

Who knew how Su Feng had survived back then?

Catch the ball, turn sideways, and shoot directly!

On the court, after Terry's three-pointer went wide, Su Feng, who had just returned, scored another three-pointer for the Lakers!

At the same time, in front of the scorer's table, "Zen Master" Davis also hurriedly called a timeout.

"I don't think we should use a double-teaming strategy against Su.

Because with his current organizational ability, he is likely to drive other teammates like in the third game.

John, even if we lose tonight, we should resolutely implement the strategy of not double-teaming Su."

During the timeout, looking at Davis, who was planning to use a double-teaming strategy against Su Feng like in Game 3, Kidd hurriedly dissuaded him.

Hearing this, after being stunned, Davis said: "I think you are right, Jason."

As a coach who was good at listening to his players' suggestions, Davis knew that he had indeed been a little scared by Su Feng just now.

But let me ask...

In today's league, which coach is not afraid of Su Feng?

On the court, after the timeout, the game continued.

Facts proved that the Mavericks, who did not blindly use the double-teaming strategy against Su Feng, did rely on their strong bench lineup to re-establish their lead in the subsequent game.

Moreover, as his physical strength declined, Su Feng's missed shots on the offensive end obviously became more and more frequent.

Basketball was still a sport for five people after all.

And in the game, the role players' scoring was more than just sharing and alleviating Su Feng's scoring pressure...

You know, as a team sport, the limit of an individual can never be compared with the limit of a team.

Tonight, with their sincere cooperation, the Mavericks obviously scored more easily on the court than the Lakers.

Just like the Heat last season.

Each performed their own duties and cooperated tacitly.

On the basketball court, the story of a certain player scoring eighty or ninety points and leading the team to win in the playoffs can only exist in novels.

Because in the playoffs with higher defensive intensity...

Even in that famous "Last.game"...

Su Feng also had a group of teammates who could help him attract firepower and Steve Nash, who was dedicated to feeding him the ball.

"In the playoffs, apart from physical consumption, no matter how good a scorer is, he can hit 30 shots in 50 attempts, and he is already considered a superhuman.

But in the team field...

There are many cases where the first 50 shots hit 30 shots." In the second quarter, Kidd, who had been sitting on the Mavericks' bench to rest, looked at Davis and said.

Bow out, Lakers!

Before you grow into a real team...

You are not enough to be the opponents of this Mavericks team that has been educated by the Heat.

American Airlines Center Arena.

At halftime, 51 to 64.

Although at the beginning of the second quarter, Su Feng once tied the score for the Lakers.

Although in the first half alone, he scored 34 points for the Lakers.

But as Kidd said.

In the playoffs, only the better team can go to the end.

The accidental events of the regular season cannot be replicated in a seven-game series.

Even if Su Feng's performance on this night had scared the Mavericks fans into a cold sweat.

As the saying goes, the G6 of the Western Conference Finals is a street, and Klay cannot be a father without teammates.

In Su Feng's previous life, many people only remembered Klay's 41 points and 11 three-pointers in that game.

But they forgot that Curry also got 31 points in that game.

Individuals and teams always achieve each other.

During the intermission, in the narrow visiting team's locker room, looking at his exhausted teammates, Coach Lue knew that he could no longer ask Su Feng and other players to do more.

But at this moment...

A certain big smart guy with an afro was silently doing arithmetic problems on the team's tactical board.

"Su scores, we may get two points or three points.

And if he doesn't score, and the Mavericks score, we are equal to losing two points or three points while losing two points or three points..."

"But if I grab the rebound when he doesn't score..."

"Hey, can someone help me find a pair of scissors?"

The intermission ended.

American Airlines Center Arena.

Rubbing his new hairstyle, Big Ben always felt that he was a lot shorter than before.

Looking at Big Ben, who had an afro in the first half, suddenly turned into a crew cut...

For a time, the Mavericks fans almost thought they had seen it wrong.

"Your hair...

Was it gnawed by a dog?" Seeing this, Kidd also pointed to Big Ben's head and asked.

There was no way, because time was limited, so Big Ben naturally couldn't trim it carefully like he usually did when he cut his own hair.

However...

As Big Ben thought.

After cutting his hair short, not only did his vision become "better", but even his jumping, he felt that he had increased by a few centimeters.

"Don't say, Newton is still quite right..." After trying his jumping, on the court, looking at his teammates, Big Ben said with a confident face.

Hearing this, Marion turned his head away.

Because how much can this person's hair weigh, no matter how much he has?

"The feel is still very good." Aside, after rubbing Big Ben's head and comparing his height with him, Su Feng confirmed that his height after wearing shoes was definitely higher than Big Ben.

On the court, in the third quarter, the Lakers attacked first.

At this time, on the sidelines, after glancing at Big Ben, John Davis also muttered to himself: "If I remember correctly, Ben once said...

Hair is the source of his confidence."

Just...

In front of the TV, along with Su Feng's pull-up jumper in the TV screen hitting the rim...

In addition to being sad, desperate, and sad...

How could the Lakers fans still have the mind to care about Big Ben, who had cut his hair short?

At the scene, the white tide had already begun to roll!

Dallas people!

Widen the score in one fell swoop!

Advancing to the Western Conference Finals is tonight!

However, regardless of whether the Lakers fans had the mind to care about Big Ben...

At this moment, Big Ben was the hero in Su Feng's mind.

Maybe, at 33 years old, he really didn't jump as high as he used to.

But...

This didn't mean that he, who had been playing in the NBA for more than ten years, had forgotten how to grab offensive rebounds.

In the Mavericks' restricted area, taking advantage of the time Chandler and Gasol were battling for position, after secretly tugging at Nowitzki's collar, Big Ben flicked the basketball back into Su Feng's hands!

Moreover, after falling diagonally on the floor, he immediately got up after landing.

Because he had to be prepared...

For the next rebound!

Rebound!

Rebound!

Rebound!

On the court, even if the three-pointer that Su Feng shot again went straight through the heart, Big Ben's eyes were always fixed on the basket.

Retreat!

Retreat!

Retreat!

"All of you cheer up, you dog-raised bastards!

If we lose this game, our season will be over!"

While retreating, Big Ben also used his way to remind his teammates of their positions.

John Davis.

Remember why the Toronto Raptors back then made Auerbach curse?

Was it because they had Vince Carter?

Or was it because they had Tracy McGrady?

Or was it because the Raptors had Jordan, and Nash and Little O'Neal?

No, none of them.

It was just because...

They had a formidable combination in times of desperation.

Although they were playing the most old-fashioned tactics in Auerbach's eyes:

——You shoot, I grab.

But it was these tactics...

That had pulled the Raptors back from the brink of death time and time again.

On the court, Marion blocked Nowitzki's turnaround layup.

Immediately afterward, while quickly passing the half-court, Su Feng also looked at Prince and asked, "In your eyes, do you think I am the 'God of Basketball' or what?"

Prince: "..."

No, big brother!

We're still playing the game!

Can you wait until the game is over to ask?

"No, I am nothing, I am just a shooter." On the court, after smiling at Prince, Su Feng turned and ran towards the center circle.

Just as Prince was about to follow, Big Ben had already blocked him behind him.

"He wouldn't be thinking of shooting from there, would he?"

Aside, looking at Su Feng, who received Marion's pass in the Mavericks' logo area, Kidd was shocked!

At the same time, on the court, Marion, who had just passed the ball to Su Feng, also quickly rushed to the basket.

Who told you...

My logo three-pointers are all just for showing off?

If I didn't have a group of teammates who could help me grab the rebounds back...

Then how could I be so unscrupulous when shooting?

Clang——!

On the court, Su Feng's three-pointer, which almost scared nearly 20,000 Mavericks fans out of their wits, failed to hit.

However, Chandler, who was sandwiched by Big Ben and Marion, almost collapsed in this defense.

Because...

One of these two was responsible for pulling the jersey.

One was responsible for jumping.

How could Chandler play?

Moreover, at the moment of snatching the basketball from the back of Chandler's head, Marion did not forget to shout: "Shawn is here!"

On the left wing, with Su Feng being locked down by Prince and Kidd on the other side, Mo Williams received Marion's pass.

Then...

It was a clean three-pointer!

"I'm also a shooter!" In addition, after scoring this goal, Mo Williams did not forget to say to Kidd, who had just chosen to leave him open.

"It's incredible!

In just two rounds, they have reversed the situation on the court!" In front of the TV, Bird couldn't help but sigh.

"Now, it's finally the turn of the Western Conference teams to experience the pain we had back then." Aside, Karl said after sighing.

American Airlines Center Arena.

Looking at the scoreboard of 57 to 64, Davis hurriedly requested a timeout.

However, after the timeout, under the collective curse of the Lakers' substitutes...

Prince, who slipped to the open space with the help of tactics, failed to seize the opportunity for the Mavericks.

It was the Lakers' turn to attack.

Su Feng dribbled the ball across the half-court, and at the moment of breaking through and attracting Nowitzki's help defense, he quickly threw the ball to Marion's hand at the bottom corner.

Marion's female-style shooting also went in!

60 to 64!

"My God! The Lakers have caught up again!" On TNT, Barkley, who was already thinking about a "eulogy" for the Lakers, was stunned.

Because, even the screenwriters of Hollywood...

Dare not make up this kind of plot!

"I now finally know why Su can win a championship with Charles Barkley." Aside, looking at Barkley, Smith said after pondering for two seconds.

Hearing this, Barkley nodded and said, "Indeed."

American Airlines Center Arena.

Since offense and defense always complement each other...

Then after being chased by the Heat for 9 consecutive points...

How could the Mavericks players not be affected?

On the court, due to being too cautious, Kidd, who did not launch an attack until there were 6 seconds left, wrongly estimated the time it would take for Hamilton to get rid of Su Feng.

When he turned to throw the ball to Nowitzki...

Beep——!

Along with the timer reaching zero, on the sidelines, the referee also made a call for the Mavericks' 24-second violation.

Lakers' ball.

Because the offensive rebounds had not been protected in the previous few attacks, Chandler did not notice that at the moment he turned to prepare to go to the basket to fight for position, Gasol had already sneaked to the bottom corner.

Su Feng handled this ball as patiently as Kidd.

The only difference was that he guessed that Gasol would withdraw from the basket at the last moment.

So, at the bottom corner...

As Gasol scored the fourth three-pointer of the game for the Lakers...

63 to 64!

The Los Angeles Lakers...

Had already ushered in the opportunity to surpass the Dallas Mavericks!

Staples Center.

When the Lakers fans, who were originally preparing to go home to sleep, heard the news that the Lakers were about to make a comeback in the second half...

They also immediately rushed back to the stadium from all directions.

Although the Lakers players, who were fighting fiercely with the Mavericks in Dallas, could not hear the cheers of these fans...

The Los Angeles of this night...

Had already turned into a sea of joy.

Can the Lakers surpass the score in this quarter?

On the court, under Big Ben's tugging, Nowitzki's shooting was obviously affected.

Uh...

To be honest.

This was really not the referee wanting to favor the Lakers.

It was just that Big Ben's jersey-pulling technique was too awesome.

Clang!

On the right wing, after his shot went wide, Nowitzki, who was irritated by Big Ben, shouted at him: "Can't you do anything else besides pulling the jersey?"

Hearing this, after looking at Nowitzki with a look of admiration, Big Ben said righteously: "Don't blame me, Dirk, because you are too strong, so I can only resort to this!"

Nowitzki: "..."

Damn it!

Although you are praising me...

But why am I not happy at all?

Of course Nowitzki was not happy.

Because as the Lakers' worst three-point shooter of this quarter...

As soon as the Mavericks' defense retreated...

Su Feng scored a three-pointer for the Lakers in a chase-down situation while losing his balance!

"I fucking love three-pointers!" On the sidelines, after sliding several meters on the bench, Tyronn Lue said excitedly.

"I said back then that the three-pointer is the worst and most disgusting invention in the world!" On the Mavericks' bench, Davis said with a look of exasperation.

Jason Kidd's prediction of this game had obviously gone wrong.

Because...

Su Feng never thought from the beginning that he could overturn this Mavericks team by himself.

Moreover, if Su Feng really intended to shoot the Mavericks to death by himself...

Then this season...

How could Kobe become more and more fond of him?

The so-called team basketball does not necessarily mean that you have to play gorgeous cooperation to be called team basketball.

In Su Feng's opinion, it was more important that...

The five people on the court must have a common goal.

Maybe the Lakers are destined to not go far this season.

But...

As long as there is still a chance...

Then the Lakers will fight to the last moment!

In the third quarter, at the American Airlines Center Arena, looking at the score of 85 to 81...

Although the Mavericks fans were comforting themselves on the surface that we will have more advantages as we play later...

But physically, more and more fans at the scene had begun to pray to God.

In the final quarter, Nowitzki, who wanted to take away the Lakers in one breath, frequently launched attacks on the court.

In the first eight minutes of this quarter alone, Nowitzki scored 13 points for the Mavericks.

However, Su Feng, who had successfully recovered in the second half, had also successfully survived his physical exhaustion point at this time.

At the critical moment, Davis did not dare to make random substitution adjustments.

So, in the tug-of-war, both the Mavericks fans and the Lakers fans were suffering.

Basketball games, this kind of game with a close score is certainly good-looking...

But for die-hard fans...

This kind of game is definitely a torment.

With 27 seconds left in the game, Su Feng hit a layup, and while scoring his 53rd point of the game, he also changed the score to 115 to 113 for the Lakers.

However, the Lakers fans were happy for less than two minutes...

After the timeout, Nowitzki scored a one-legged fadeaway at the bottom corner to tie the score for the Mavericks.

The Lakers' last attack, Su Feng failed to stage a kill.

115 to 115, the torment continued, and the Lakers and the Mavericks fought again in overtime.

In overtime, looking at Big Ben, Gasol, and Mo Williams, who were already exhausted...

Coach Lue had to use Mbenga, Evans, and Walton to hold on for two minutes first.

Fortunately, after entering overtime, the Mavericks' substitutes were obviously also affected by the pressure.

It was not until there were 2 minutes and 13 seconds left in overtime that Su Feng broke the deadlock on the court with a pull-up jumper.

However, the Mavericks, who had better physical strength after all, still found an opportunity in the last two minutes of overtime and surpassed the score with 15 seconds left in the game.

But like the Lakers fans at the end of regular time...

The Mavericks fans also failed to be happy for more than two minutes.

Because after the timeout, Su Feng successfully dragged the game into the second overtime with his 57th point of the game.

At this time, Marion, who had played almost the entire game, also had cramps...

Therefore, it was not until the second overtime of the two teams had reached the last 1 minute that Coach Lue, after confirming Marion's condition with the team doctor, reconnected Su Feng, who was about to "die suddenly", with his "left hand".

Second overtime.

The Mavericks and the Lakers still failed to determine the winner.

132 to 132.

American Airlines Center Arena.

The two teams would decide the outcome through the third overtime.

After entering the third overtime, the Mavericks' so-called physical advantage had also disappeared.

On TNT, looking at Su Feng, who scored 4 consecutive points after the start of the third overtime, Barkley, who wanted to get off work early, couldn't help but say poisonously: "The Mavericks are a bit overwhelmed, it seems that after this overtime, the two teams can determine the winner tonight."

As a result...

As soon as Barkley finished speaking, Terry scored two three-pointers in a row on the court.

And with Su Feng, who was almost unable to lift his arms, going to the free throw line through a strong attack before the end of the third overtime and scoring two free throws for the Lakers...

140 to 140.

The fourth overtime...

Came unexpectedly like this.

"My God! This game will not be like the Heat and Celtics back then, and we have to play five overtimes to determine the winner, right?" On TNT, Barkley, who was about to be driven crazy, exclaimed with his head in his hands.

Well...

Since Mr. Barkley said that this game would have to play five overtimes to determine the winner...

Then...

147 to 147.

152 to 152.

Unfortunately.

Since the winner could not be determined in the fourth and fifth overtimes...

So tonight, the Mavericks' home fans can be said to have made a lot of money.

Because now...

The Mavericks and the Lakers are going to play the sixth overtime.

Before the start of the sixth overtime of the two teams, the Mavericks' big screen also played a new historical record for Su Feng, this hateful, detestable, but respectable opponent.

Yes.

As long as Su Feng appeared on the court in the sixth overtime, he would break the NBA playoff single-game playing time record of 73 minutes that he created in that five-overtime game with the Celtics.

In addition, before the start of the sixth overtime of this game, Su Feng had successfully created a new NBA playoff single-game scoring record:

73 points.

That is to say, in the sixth overtime, every point of Su Feng will become a new NBA historical record!

Therefore, after sighing, Barkley also said with emotion: "Although this game has driven many people crazy...
