Chapter 236 At the last moment, Wang Yan made a difficult move!
Sure enough, Ginobili faked a pass and a serpentine breakthrough, fooling the Cavaliers' perimeter defenders.
Wang Yan and TT could only go to the penalty area to provide defense, but Manu had a very wide field of vision and passed the ball behind his head, whoosh!
Accurately found Belinelli on the outside.
Irving was blocked by Danny Green and could only watch Belinelli take a three-pointer.
Swish!
Three-pointer!
104:103
The score difference was narrowed to 1 point again.
The cheers from the Cavaliers' home court came to an abrupt end.
The Spurs have indeed transformed again, their three-point shooting is so sharp.
Now if the Spurs and Warriors play a seven-game series, the result is really unpredictable.
There are 57 seconds left in the game.
Scott did not call a timeout and handed over the command of the game to Wang Yan on the court.
Wang Yan let Irving advance to the frontcourt with the ball.
The others dispersed, preparing to let Irving play alone.
The Spurs replaced Danny Green to defend Irving alone.
Danny Green is a very eye-catching 3D player this season. Although he is not as explosive as Thompson, he is also an important member of the Spurs' transformation.
It's a bit difficult for Irving to get rid of Danny Green.
However, the Cavaliers were prepared. Just when Green went to defend Irving, TT immediately moved to a high position and blocked Danny Green, and Irving quickly broke away.
Although Dio is very flexible, it is impossible for him to defend Irving.
Irving made a fake crossover move and shook Dio off.
Leonard immediately came over to defend.
At this moment, Wang Yan cut to the basket.
Wang Yan and Owen have such a good understanding!
Irving didn't even raise his head and threw the ball directly over the basket.
Dio secretly thought that something was wrong and turned around to see that Wang Yan was already in the air and grabbed the ball and dunked it!
boom!
Another two points!
The point difference returned to 3 points.
With 36 seconds left in the game, the advantage was on the Cavaliers' side.
However, the 3-point advantage is not solid. In the final moments, 3 points and 4 points are a watershed, resulting in completely different final tactics.
The Spurs just need to get 3 points in the next round.
Popovich did not call a timeout because this lineup had several three-point shooters.
So he waved his hand and continued fighting!
Ginobili dribbled past again.
Since he just broke through and passed the ball to his teammates, creating three-point opportunities, the Cavaliers' defense expanded outward this time to keep a close eye on every outside shooter.
Unexpectedly, Ginobili did not pass the ball this time, but instead made a layup against TT.
Although TT defended hard and pressed forward with his whole body, Ginobili was really strong and he did not suffer any loss in the confrontation.
At the moment when the body lost balance, he changed hands and made a layup, which hit the backboard.
beep!
The referee whistled, 2+1!
It's really hard to score 2+1 at this time!
In good times, look at Parker; in bad times, look at Stone Buddha; in desperate times, look at Manu. He really lives up to his reputation!
The Spurs players rushed over roaring and bumped chests with Ginobili in celebration.
It’s so crucial!
There are 14 seconds left in the game.
Ginobili went to the free throw line and made the extra free throw, tying the game at 107!
Scott called a timeout.
The Cavaliers fans were stunned. They didn't expect that the Cavaliers could play against the Spurs until the last minute at home.
They may have forgotten that the Spurs have been among the strong teams since Duncan joined.
Now with the support of the three-point tactics, our strength will definitely increase!
The timeout ends and the Cavaliers serve in the frontcourt.
The Spurs changed their lineup and put all defensive players on the court.
Duncan, Split, Leonard, Danny Green, Joseph. Wang Yan defeated Duncan, and after receiving the ball, Duncan and Leonard immediately came over to double-team.
The Spurs' defensive tactics were correct, which was to strangle Wang Yan and would rather let others make the winning shot.
Wang Yan was well prepared and had a broad vision, so he could see clearly the positions of his teammates.
So he gave Butler a look and suddenly threw the ball to the left corner.
There was no one in the corner at this time, but the ball arrived and the person also arrived.
Butler got the ball in the corner, dribbled forward, and made a pull-up jump shot!
The score is tied now, so there is no need to shoot a three-pointer.
Butler is most confident in the two-point shot, and his hit rate this season is about 50%.
However, the Spurs players responded quickly and Danny Green rushed over immediately.
Butler was almost about to shoot, but when he saw Green rushing towards him, he thought quickly and passed the ball to Wang Yan in the middle.
4 seconds…3 seconds…2 seconds…

Wang Yan was double-teamed, but he dodged and suddenly jumped to the left rear side and shot from the highest point!
It was almost a buzzer beater.
too difficult!
Duncan and Leonard were almost sticking to Wang Yan, but Wang Yan still made a move.
The ball is in the air and the red timing light is on.
Killer?
Or overtime?
Everyone looked up at the ball.
Boom!
The basketball hit the inner edge of the basket and went in!
That was a close call, it almost popped out.
The Spurs players immediately wilted like deflated balls.
Indeed, losing at the last minute is really devastating.
Popovich, on the other hand, had a good mentality. He didn't look gloomy and stern like he did before when he lost a game.
Instead, he stood on the sidelines with a smile on his face, comforting every player.
In fact, Popovich was very happy that the game with the Cavaliers lasted until the very last minute and the winner was decided.
This proves that the Spurs have once again reached the top of the NBA and have the strength to compete with the Cavaliers.
In the West, there is no need to be afraid of the Warriors.
The Cavaliers fans were so excited that they cheered Wang Yan's name throughout the stadium.
Although this is just a regular season game, fans all know that this is a crucial battle between the Cavaliers and the Warriors for home-court advantage in the playoffs.
If the Warriors win a game over there, we have to follow them, otherwise we will suffer a loss in the finals.
The Cavaliers teammates also rushed over, surrounded Wang Yan again, and jumped up and down.
Even though Wang Yan made so many buzzer-beaters and key shots, the players were still shocked every time.
It seems that those fans are right. The Cavaliers are a strong team, but not yet at the level of competing for the championship.
It was because of Wang Yan that we had two more championships.
Although Wang Yan was very humble and never emphasized his role, any discerning person could see it.
It is a fact that in the past three years, when Wang Yan was not there, the Cavaliers won fewer games and lost more.
Duncan was the first to approach Wang Yan.
In fact, the regular season has come to an end, and the results of the games are not very important. Duncan did not come to congratulate, he really wanted to have a chat with Wang Yan.
"Wang, to be honest, I really hope you can win three consecutive championships." It was a bit surprising that Duncan's first sentence was this.
Wang Yan was also stunned for a moment, then half-jokingly replied: "I hope so too, but I hope it's five consecutive championships!"
Duncan patted Wang Yan on the shoulder: "Come on, the future..."
Before he could finish, Wang Yan took over the conversation: "The future is mine, haha!"
Duncan suddenly remembered that he had said something similar to another person, but that person had not won the championship so far.
