Chapter 257 Unsolved Foul Crisis

Piao Tianwen    In the fourth quarter, except for the center of the Spurs, all the others returned to the court, and the Heat were the starting lineup, and only O'Neal was on the court, and Mo Ning was the replacement of him. However, this time was a bit different from the starting lineup, that is, the Spurs led the Heat eleven points.

The first offense started with the Spurs. Stephen was going to run like the second quarter. After running a few times, he found that he was no longer a substitute and always had conflicts with his teammates. At this time, he ran to Michael Finley. Michael Finley took the ball into Stephen's arms and ran back.

Stephen hesitated with the ball. This was outside the three-point line. However, Michael Finley was on his running route. It was meaningless to follow the past. Instead, he was easily attacked by the opponent. However, if he took action here, Stephen had no confidence. Today, Stephen felt outside the three-point line. However, the team's tactics should be gone have almost gone, and the attack time is gone. Stephen hesitated for a moment and still threw the ball out.

What Stephen didn't expect was that the ball actually entered, the Spurs' leading advantage reached 14 points, and Stephen's personal score also reached 22 points. It was naturally not a good match compared to the previous game, but this should be Stephen's scoring data.

Antoine Walker scored a two-pointer on the Heat, but Duncan, the Spurs, also scored the ball after he took Mo Ning with a very relaxed footsteps, and the two sides were still a fourteen-point difference.

Stephen was defending Antoine Walker, and suddenly saw Wade holding the ball and killing himself. Stephen turned directly to meet him. Wade saw that Stephen did not avoid him, and immediately jumped into the air. Then his body tilted and leaned towards Stephen. When he was about to hit Stephen, Stephen suddenly shrank his body back. Although Wade took the ball, his body fell on the floor.

The referee came over and sentenced Stephen to a defensive foul. Stephen couldn't bear it. He hurriedly reached out and wiped his face, forcing the expression on his face to a smile, and then walked towards the referee, explaining that he had not touched Wade.

The referee obviously did not believe Stephen's explanation. Of course, many people explained to the referee in this way after a foul, saying that they really didn't meet someone or someone else, how could they fall to the ground? Not to mention that the expression on Stephen's face looked so unreal, and the referee didn't need to use it.

But the linebacker saw all this clearly and hurriedly ran over to the referee's ear and explained. The referee looked at the linebacker and accepted Stephen's explanation. Generally speaking, this situation is rare, but Stephen has a reason for this foul, because he didn't even get a hair from Wade.

Wade was lying on the ground for a long time and was ready to get a free throw, but he was actually changed to the verdict, which naturally made him very angry. However, on the basketball court, the referee was the biggest, so he could only stand up unwillingly. Because his shot flew out of the baseline just now, the ball rights became the Spurs.

Because the other Heat's defense was very good, the ball was passed in the hands of the Spurs players several times but did not find an opportunity to attack. Finally, it came to Stephen. Instead, Stephen turned his body and played Antoine Walker with his back.

Even if Antoine Walker looked burly than Stephen, he had more flesh than Stephen's, but Stephen only used half of his strength to take Antoine Walker back. This guy was still like that. Why couldn't he make up for the unstable weakness of the lower plate? Instead, he retreated. Stephen thought about it and sat back three steps.

Stephen didn't think about it. His skills were gradually maturing, and although his strength did not increase, his ability to control his body was better than before. Antoine Walker was already thirty years old and was aging day by day. How could he compare with him?

After reaching the position of the attack, Stephen no longer needs to twist and observe. He just needs to know where he has reached based on his position and the distance from the three-point line. Then Stephen was about to make a turnover jump shot, and the whistle sounded there.

Stephen did not stop immediately, but continued to do all the movements before stopping to look at the referee's gesture. Unexpectedly, he saw the referee making a demonstration of a heavy shoulder movement at him. Stephen cursed in his heart. Seeing the referee looking at himself with a playful look, he still didn't know what the referee meant.

Just now, the referee wanted to judge a foul, but he successfully appealed, which made the referee lose face. The referee immediately found it on himself. When it comes to the action of heavy shoulders, everyone has it when turning around, it is nothing more than a matter of size. According to Stephen's opinion, his actions are not foul at all.

However, the size of this scale is completely controlled by the referee. Stephen is speechless about the referee in this game. So although he gave himself a completely unjust foul, Stephen is no longer as angry as he was at the beginning. This is only Stephen's third foul, and it is not very important.

Stephen didn't take it in his heart. The task of defending Antoine Walker is very easy and he rarely fouls because of defense. Now Stephen needs to worry about not fouls when attacking. The referee in this game is too biased towards the Heat, and it is not as simple as leaning towards the home team.

Wade easily accelerated and scored two points with a layup after changing direction. Tony Parker of the Spurs missed the throw. After coming back, Wade made a jump shot after breaking through again, helping the team narrow the gap. **Vic frowned below. Michael Finley's defensive effect on Wade was really poor. He couldn't keep up with the first step of acceleration, and then he stopped chasing.

I don’t know if it’s really impossible to catch up, or if I’m given up after being broken through. Even if you can’t catch up, you have to put pressure on him from behind so that he can’t jump so casually. But if Stephen goes to defend, **Vic did not dare to take this risk.

In this game, the referee obviously didn't want Stephen to show off again. He targeted Stephen everywhere, but if Stephen was not allowed to defend Wade, others would not have a good defensive effect on Wade. If Bruce Bowen couldn't do it, no one would do it.

In three rounds, the Spurs only scored two points with Stephen's dunk. In addition to Wade's shooting, Jason Williams also made a three-pointer, and the gap between fourteen points was soon left with only seven points. In the process of chasing the points, Wade basically made the credit for Jason Williams' three-pointer, which was also Wade who helped him attract Tony Parker's defense and passed it to him.

At this time, O'Neal returned to the court, and the Spurs also sent Nestrovic. At the critical moment, **Vic believed him more, but unfortunately, this time it disappointed him. As soon as he came on the court, Nestrovic contributed a foul and even let O'Neal score the ball.

O'Neal's free throw was bumped on the basket a few times, and finally rolled into the basket. The gap of seven points reached four points again. Now **Vic must call a timeout. It can be forgiven if there is any offense problem. Let the players solve it on the court. If there is any defense problem, it cannot be forgiven, especially at the last moment of this game.

During the timeout, **Vic replaced Michael Finley and replaced Ginobili. At the critical moment, he still believed in Ginobili's control ability. At the same time, in terms of defense, Ginobili was also better than Michael Finley's effect.

**Vic was still worried about letting Stephen defend Wade. After the timeout, Ginobili's replacement did have an immediate effect. As soon as he came up, a breakthrough caused Haslem's foul. He scored two points after two free throws. After defending Wade's defense again, a long pass from his left hand to Stephen, assisting Stephen to dunk.

The gap came to eight points again, but then O'Neal made another effort. Although Nestrovic paid the price of foul again, O'Neal's character exploded and made both free throws, which was very strange. Is it really like the one O'Neal said that his free throws were only accurate at critical moments?

Back to the Spurs, Stephen took Antoine Walker to play a pick-and-roll cooperation with Duncan, then passed the ball to Duncan, and then blocked Antoine Walker for Duncan. Duncan in the air, although he was more than four meters away from the basket, he still shot the ball very easily.

Seeing that the game time passed by minute by minute, and the score gap could not be narrowed, Pat Riley called a timeout, and the Heat's offensive rhythm began to accelerate, and the offense was mainly Wade's breakthrough and O'Neal's strong attack.

This offense is very effective. Nestrovic quickly received his fourth personal foul. At the same time, this is also the Spurs' fourth foul. If there is another foul, there will be a free throw. But it is annoying that while defending Wade, Ginobili was sentenced to a foul again.

**Vic had to indicate on the sidelines that Stephen would go to defend Wade. As soon as he changed, Stephen blocked Wade's shot and scored again with a hook shot, pulling the score to more than ten, but soon, he received his fourth foul on Wade.

Stephen did not restrain himself because of this, but after only two rounds, the fifth foul came to his head. He just slightly blocked Wade's footsteps and was judged for a foul. When Wade executed his nineteenth free throw in the game, Stephen ended up very depressedly.
