On the court, after Su Feng made the extra free throw, the point difference between the two teams returned to 4 points.

And the entire third quarter...

These 4 points had become an insurmountable chasm for the Mavericks, no matter what they did.

At the end of the first three quarters, the score between the two teams was 95 to 91.

During the break, Barkley commentated, "Tonight, Su and Dirk have already scored 38 and 36 points respectively. Looking at their condition, it's highly likely that they will both score 40+ before the end of this game."

As the saying goes, there are no great games in the finals.

Unless AC Milan and Liverpool both reach the final.

Beside him, after glancing at Barkley, Smith, knowing that this guy wanted to use the opportunity to promote himself, chimed in at the right time, "It's rare to see games in the NBA Finals where both sides have players scoring more than 40 points.

Among them, the most classic one has to be the battle between the Bulls and the Suns in the 1992/1993 season Finals.

It is also worth mentioning that that year was also the year Michael Jordan led the Chicago Bulls to establish a dynasty in the NBA."

In the 1992/1993 season, in Game 2 of the Finals, facing the regular season...

Fourteen years later, facing a Heat team with even greater dominance and oppressiveness than the Bulls back then...

Tonight, the Dallas Mavericks also used their actions to show the world their determination to move forward after losing Game 1.

On the court, Terry hits another three-pointer!

Seize every opportunity you can.

This is the vocation of a shooter on the court.

In the final quarter, in the back-and-forth battle with the Heat, "Godfather of Basketball" Davis also showed "Sideline God" Spoelstra a thing or two on this night.

In order to strengthen the Mavericks' outside offensive firepower, the Mavericks changed their lineup in the final quarter to Chandler, Nowitzki, Kidd, Terry, and Barea.

And at crucial moments, the old Kidd also took on the responsibility of breaking through to the basket for the team.

In Su Feng's previous life, because the persona of "Kidd Doesn't Attack" was too deeply rooted in people's hearts, many fans really thought that Kidd would not attack on the court.

But in fact, Kidd only chose to change his style of play in order to have a longer career after suffering a major injury.

Otherwise, the 17,000+ points in Kidd's career in Su Feng's memory couldn't have been randomly written by the NBA stats crew, right?

And tonight, if he can't beat the Heat, then even if he can play until he's 40 with a good pair of legs, what's the point for Kidd?

Relying on experience, in the final quarter, Kidd repeatedly earned free throw opportunities in the paint through breakthroughs.

Because everyone on this Mavericks team except Chandler can shoot, the Heat can't shrink the defense like they did in the previous Eastern Conference Finals.

However...

At the decisive moment, Su Feng and Ginobili were always able to respond to the Mavericks.

Often, as soon as the Mavericks tied the score on the court, the Heat would immediately widen the gap again.

In the final quarter, in this kind of soul-crushing repeated torment...

Until 7.8 seconds before the end of the game, under the gaze of nearly 20,000 Mavericks fans in Dallas...

On the court, after slipping to the top of the arc after a screen, Nowitzki used a high-arcing shot from half a meter beyond the three-point line to give the Mavericks the lead!

118 to 120.

This was the second time the Mavericks had taken the lead on the court since leading at the start of the game tonight.

At the same time, this was also the miracle that the Dallas people had been waiting for all night!

With the joint efforts of the old Kidd, the Little Emperor, the Mad Terry, and other Mavericks players...

The Dallas people, who had been walking in the despairing abyss all night, finally saw a glimmer of hope.

However, just as the Mavericks fans in the arena were cheering for Nowitzki's three-pointer...

On the court, Kidd suddenly became alert!

Because...

The Heat...

Did not call a timeout!

At the baseline, in an instant that seemed to be slowly walking towards the baseline, Ginobili suddenly turned around and quickly passed the baseline ball to Su Feng!

After getting the ball, Su Feng also advanced to the Mavericks' half at the fastest speed!

Then, under the double-teaming of Terry and Kidd, Su Feng, who had been chased all the way to a step inside the three-point line before getting a chance to shoot, did not hesitate.

Leg drive.

Hang time.

Wrist flick.

On the court, when Kidd and Terry, who jumped later, landed at the same time...

They were surprised to find that...

Su Feng in front of them was still in the air!

And at this time...

The next thing Su Feng needed to do was very simple for him.

—Gently flick the basketball, which was being gently supported by his left hand, towards the basket with his right hand.

Then, close your eyes and turn around.

Patiently wait for the basketball to swish through the net.

Swish!

120 to 120!

In Dallas, just one step away from victory, Su Feng once again kicked the Dallas people back into the abyss!

Buzzer!

At the American Airlines Center, as Su Feng scored two points, the shot clock in the final quarter of Game 2 of the Finals also officially reached zero.

On TNT, after sighing, Barkley said with emotion, "Perhaps this is the most attractive thing about basketball. You can never know the final result of the game until the last moment.

Although...

In my opinion, the Dallas Mavericks fans don't want to see this result."

Beside him, Smith said, "What a terrifying decision-making ability.

At the last moment, after the Mavericks successfully took the lead with a three-pointer, we can see that the Heat players on the court were not flustered at all, and Manu's quick baseline pass successfully caught the Mavericks off guard!"

On the sidelines, after Su Feng successfully hit the game-tying pull-up jumper for the Heat, Spoelstra finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Because if Ginobili hadn't given him a hint with his eyes before walking to the baseline...

Then, according to the original plan, Coach Spo would have definitely called a timeout to arrange the last attack.

To put it bluntly, if Su Feng didn't make this shot...

Then, all the blame would definitely be borne by him, Spoelstra.

But out of trust in Ginobili and Su Feng...

Spoelstra also made a crucial decision at that moment.

On the Mavericks' bench, when Su Feng shot that mid-range jumper that was destined to become a classic...

Davis's thoughts had already been pulled back to the Raptors era.

"Perhaps, only 'the embodiment of angels and demons' can describe Su now.

Because for the team that owns him, he is like an angel, always guiding you in the right direction.

And for the opponents who are fighting him, he is like a demon, always giving you a blow when you are about to succeed." On the sidelines, after sighing, Davis couldn't help but sigh.

On the court, after the two teams took a short break, overtime began immediately.

In the center of the court, the starting lineups for the two teams in overtime were as follows:

Heat: O'Neal, Haslem, Su Feng, Stackhouse, Ginobili.

Mavericks: Chandler, Nowitzki, Posey, Terry, Kidd.

Because "Drugged Dirk" had performed poorly in this year's Finals, after letting Posey rest for nearly half a quarter in the final quarter, Davis finally chose to let Posey match up with Su Feng before the start of overtime.

After all, Kidd's physical strength had reached its limit at this point in the game.

Therefore, even if Kidd could still grit his teeth and insist on guarding Su Feng...

Davis couldn't just watch Kidd go to his death in vain, right?

On the court, overtime began, O'Neal defeated Chandler in the tip-off, and the Heat attacked first.

In this game, Ginobili went crazy.

In regulation time, Ginobili made 10 of 17 shots, scoring a total of 29 points including free throws and three-pointers.

On CCTV, Zhang Guoli couldn't help but complain that if it wasn't for Su Feng's more brilliant performance...

Then what Ginobili had played on this night was clearly at the level of Finals MVP.

In Su Feng's previous life, as the only player among the "GDP" trio who had never won a Finals MVP, in fact, including Duncan himself, believed that in the original 2004/2005 season's Finals, Ginobili was the Finals MVP of that Spurs team.

Because in that Finals series, apart from performing poorly in Games 3 and 4, in the four games the Spurs won, Ginobili had managed to poke ten thousand transparent holes in the steel defense carefully crafted by Larry Brown.

Especially in the final Game 7 between the two teams.

At that time, with Duncan making only 10 of 27 shots and missing 17 shots wildly, Ginobili, who made 8 of 13 shots in the whole game, directly scored 11 points in the final quarter, leading the Spurs to take away the Pistons in one wave.

This is Manu Ginobili.

In times of desperation, an Argentine妖刀 (yaodao - demon blade) that will never let you down.

In addition, when it comes to dividing the cake of honor afterward, he doesn't mind hiding behind you and watching you take the biggest piece of the cake.

The camera returns to the American Airlines Center.

In the first attack of overtime, on the court, Ginobili twisted lightly, and the old Kidd was left behind by him.

Then, after scoring a layup that Chandler couldn't figure out, Ginobili didn't forget to shrug his shoulders at Davis on the sidelines and spread his hands.

In fact, whether it was the previous Eastern Conference Finals or this current Finals series, the Celtics and the Mavericks, in Su Feng's opinion, had underestimated Ginobili too much.

But thinking about it, that's understandable...

After all, who told the Mavericks to keep a close eye on himself, the God of Basketball, on the court at this moment?

On the court, the Mavericks attacked, and Nowitzki's mid-range shot was off the mark due to exhaustion.

And going back, just when the Maple fans in front of the TV were guessing whether Su Feng would score 50+ in the Finals tonight...

Ginobili once again stood up and ended all the suspense.

In overtime, Ginobili and Stackhouse combined for all 14 points for the Heat.

In the end, 134 to 125.

The Heat won another game on the road, leading the series 2-0 in this Finals.

At the same time, in front of the TV, the Heat fans had already seen the beautiful future of the third championship banner being raised at the AmericanAirlines Arena next season.

Moreover, according to the schedule, because the next three Finals games will all be held in Miami...

Therefore, Heat fans also have a very high probability of being able to witness the Heat establishing a dynasty in the NBA at home.

Fun fact, Su Feng has never experienced the atmosphere of winning a championship at home in his career so far.

Therefore, after the game, what was in stark contrast to the Mavericks fans who were already desperate was...

The Heat's supporters had already started thinking about whether they should open the bottle of champagne in their left hand first, or the bottle of champagne in their right hand when this series ends...
