Vince Carter brought the ball to the front court and attempted the first three-pointer of the fourth quarter, hoping for a miracle, hoping to extend his myth tonight with a clutch shot.
But this three-pointer did not continue the myth, it only gave Big Ben his 13th rebound of the day.
Carter’s three-point shooting had gone completely cold.
Nine three-pointers in the first half, only one in the third quarter, and only one attempt in the fourth quarter.
No one could maintain their three-point touch under such circumstances.
This is, after all, an era weak in three-point shooting; Steve Kerr would never stop Curry from shooting threes when his touch was off, but Butch Carter would let the UFO follow such instructions.
And Butch Carter was already considered an enlightened coach in this era; if it were Larry Brown, Carter might get a scolding at the press conference.
After Big Ben grabbed the rebound, he passed the ball to Roger the instant he touched the ground.
Years with the Atlanta Hawks transformed Big Ben from a bench player to a DPOY, and built excellent chemistry with Roger.
He’s not a passing master, yet he instinctively gives the ball to Roger after grabbing the rebound.
Roger raced across the midcourt line alone, and the Raptors gave up on defense, knowing the outcome was inevitable.
Seeing no one guarding him, Roger didn’t advance further to abuse the rim, but stopped a step outside the three-point line and shot the ball casually.
The next second, all that could be heard was the swish of the net, as the Canadian Airlines Centre fell completely silent.
Tonight, Roger became a more fearsome silencer than the purple and gold number 8 away!
The buzzer sounded, ending this dramatic game.
118 to 113, the Atlanta Hawks were down by as many as 17 points at halftime, with Vince Carter nearly scoring 40 points by halftime.
But Atlanta’s savior responded to his people, leading a comeback victory and turning the series score to 3-0.
Considering that there has never been a 0-3 comeback in history, the Toronto Raptors are essentially eliminated!
Vince Carter scored 55 points, a new career high.
It was supposed to be a great night for the half-man, half-god, as almost everyone thought.
But people didn’t expect Roger, this tyrant, to respond to Carter right there on the spot, without even waiting for the next game.
56 points, 5 rebounds, 4 assists—before a true god, the half-man, half-god, despite doing his utmost, couldn’t save his city and followers.
Maybe, this is the difference between a god and a demigod.
Vince Carter took off the purple headband and held it in his palm, shaking his head.
He always considered this headband a switch, a psychological cue to himself to enter battle mode when he wore it.
So tonight, he repeatedly took off and put on the headband, telling himself to fight to the end.
But he still lost.
Yes, competitive sports are full of beautiful fairy tales, but mostly, it’s about winners and losers.
At that moment, Carter felt his heart being stabbed.
He was so close to victory, yet now he had nothing.
Larry Hughes’s advice, its value is rising.
Against Roger, never, ever expect to win.
Only by having no expectations can you avoid great disappointment.
The dejected Carter looked up at the stands and saw his number 15 jersey still flying in the sea of purple.
The fans here are still cheering for him.
As if he were still their hero here.
Toronto fans truly can’t ask anything more of Vince Carter; how many star players in NBA history have scored 50 points in the playoffs?
Even twenty years ahead, the real GOATs only scored 50 points once in the playoffs, with the runner-up only doing it eight times.
Tonight, Vince Carter was great enough, but unfortunately, he met the most fearsome opponent.
Be content, Carter only scored one point less than Roger.
At least he wasn’t like Sprewell in last season’s playoffs, who got decimated by Roger, 62 to 7, losing his big contract.
Carter looked at everything in front of him, looked at the fans still supporting him after the defeat, and felt one thing: I can die for Toronto!
Roger gave Carter a polite hug, then accepted an on-site interview from the reporters.
The first question from the reporter was as Roger expected: “Can you tell us what happened during halftime?”
“Drank water, massaged, watched TV.
Paul went to the bathroom, so nobody had to eat halfway through.”
“I mean, didn’t you have any special arrangements?”
“Special arrangements?
None needed.
We played according to the plan, that’s all.”
Roger didn’t seem at all like someone who just scored 56 points and led a grand comeback; he was so calm it seemed like this victory was inevitable.
For Roger, it was indeed so; when he decided to win during halftime, this result was within his expectations.
Carter surely couldn’t hit 18 three-pointers in a game, right?
As long as he couldn’t, the result was already decided.
“Do you have anything to say about the Los Angeles Lakers’ dominant performance in the playoffs?”
Finally, a question that interested Roger.
When all media was praising how great the Lakers were this season, there was something Roger had long wanted to say.
“Dominant?
How many rings have the Lakers won?”
