Curry's floater missed, and Tang Tian's pull-up jumper went wide.

Barnes' layup was good, and Tang Tian's pull-up jumper was good.

In the next few minutes, the score became deadlocked.

With one minute left in the game, the Warriors still led the Pelicans by 8 points, and they still had possession.

Although the Pelicans were chasing points fiercely, they were still likely to win without any real surprises.

"Although the Pelicans have a very small chance, they have played in a way that deserves respect."

Barkley said with emotion in the commentary box.

"Yes, not all teams can do this. From being 30 points behind in the third quarter, they chased to only 8 points, erasing a 22-point deficit."

Smith echoed from the side.

"Guys, the game isn't over yet!"

O'Neal said loudly from the side.

Barkley and Smith smiled. Time was running out for the Pelicans.

Time was indeed running out. Ariza stepped forward and, together with Holiday, forced Curry, who was dribbling to kill time.

Curry passed the ball to Thompson on the other side.

"Pa!"

Just as the ball was passed, Tang Tian, through his excellent court vision and anticipation, stole Curry's pass!

He had snatched an opportunity out of nowhere!

He accelerated past Curry and Thompson, sprinted to the frontcourt, and stopped abruptly at the three-point line without driving into the paint!

Now, the Pelicans' biggest enemy was time, and he had to seize every opportunity to score as many points as possible.

The ball spun through the air towards the basket.

"Swish!"

A crisp sound!

Tang Tian's clutch shot at the critical moment didn't disappoint the Pelicans fans, going straight through the net!

The point difference was narrowed to 5 points!

"God!"

Barkley exclaimed.

This three-pointer was too crucial for the situation on the court.

One minute, 8 points behind, and without possession, there was basically no chance of winning.

But with 50 seconds left and 5 points behind, as long as they defended one possession, they had a chance!

Kerr called a timeout.

The fans in the arena couldn't help but gasp for air.

From leading by 30 points to leading by only 5 points, they had just experienced the most thrilling roller coaster ride.

When play resumed after the timeout, the Warriors ran a series of pick-and-roll plays, and Thompson caught the ball and took a mid-range shot.

"Clang!"

The basketball bounced off the rim.

The Warriors' play worked, but Thompson got soft hands at the critical moment and missed!

Just then, the baseline referee blew his whistle, signaling a rebounding foul on Harrell!

Harrell had made contact with Barnes while jostling for position, and the referee caught it.

Because the Pelicans had reached the foul limit, Barnes was awarded two free throws!

A fatal foul!

The fans in the arena experienced another huge swing of emotions. One second they were disappointed by Thompson's missed shot, and the next they had a surprise!

Stevens shook his head helplessly.

This kind of foul wasn't something a coach could control.

With 35 seconds left in the game, if Barnes made both free throws, the Pelicans would have no chance at all.

"It's okay, you've done a great job."

Tang Tian saw that Harrell was a little frustrated and opened his mouth to comfort him.

Harrell had played well enough as a surprise weapon in this game. You couldn't ask a rookie to perform like a superstar.

It was inevitable for rookies to make mistakes, and appropriate encouragement was needed at this time, just like he had done with Whiteside and Jokic back then.

Harrell nodded, Tang Tian's encouragement coming at just the right time.

Barnes stepped up to the free-throw line, and the arena quickly fell silent.

It seemed like you could only hear your own heartbeat in the huge stadium.

"Clang!"

Barnes missed the first free throw.

Players faced a lot of psychological pressure in these critical free throws.

There was a commotion in the arena.

The Pelicans' bench was excited.

Even if Barnes made the second free throw, the Pelicans would still have a chance to get a three-pointer.

Barnes took his second free throw, and everyone in the arena seemed to stop breathing.

"Clang!"

Barnes missed the second free throw too!

Like Thompson, he had gotten soft hands at the critical moment!

Harrell fought hard for the defensive rebound, and the Pelicans called a timeout.

With 35 seconds left, 5 points behind, and with possession, the Pelicans still had a chance!

When play resumed after the timeout, Holiday dribbled the ball past half-court and passed it to Tang Tian.

Tang Tian faked out Thompson outside the three-point line, and Iguodala came over from the weak side to help.

Tang Tian had just made a critical three-pointer, and the Warriors wouldn't give Tang Tian another chance to shoot no matter what.

But Tang Tian didn't seem to have any intention of shooting.

Stevens guessed that the Warriors would double-team Tang Tian and called a play for a two-pointer.

Harrell cut to the basket after setting a pick for Bogdanovic.

Tang Tian threw a high pass to Harrell out of the double team.

Bogut rotated back to defend, but it was too late. Harrell leaped into the air for a dunk.

Bogut was too slow to block, and his hand hit Harrell's hand, the sound clearly audible.

Harrell's momentum didn't decrease, and he slammed the ball hard into the basket like a beast.

The referee blew his whistle, signaling an and-one!

Bogut clutched his head in frustration.

The arena erupted in an uproar, the fans in disbelief.

This was equivalent to giving the Pelicans a chance to chase points!

In this kind of endgame situation, the difference between leading by 2 points and 3 points was huge!

After the dunk, Harrell roared excitedly in place, bumped chests with Bogdanovic who came over, and then pointed to Tang Tian, who had passed the ball.

He had made a mistake on the previous play, and he had made up for it on this play!

After roaring, he stepped up to the free-throw line for a very crucial free throw.

The fans in the arena did everything they could to create interference, and Harrell was under a lot of pressure for this free throw.

He was indeed affected, and his shot was a little too strong.

But he was lucky, and the ball bounced twice before going in!

With 29 seconds left and 2 points behind, the Pelicans had their best chance to win since the start of the game!

Kerr called the Warriors' last timeout.

When play resumed after the timeout, Curry held the ball until there were less than 10 seconds left, and the Warriors ran another three-point play.

Curry passed the ball to Bogut and then ran around to receive the ball again.

The Pelicans defended Curry heavily, and Curry didn't have a good chance to shoot. He took a contested long three-pointer over Aminu.

The shot was very difficult, but the trajectory of the ball looked very good.

The ball went straight for the basket, but it grazed the rim and bounced out!

Harrell fought hard for the defensive rebound, and the Pelicans called their last timeout!

The Warriors had failed to seize their chances with consecutive shots, and the opportunity had now come to the Pelicans' side!

The fans in the arena felt like their hearts were about to jump out of their chests.

This time, their fate was entirely in the hands of the Pelicans.

When play resumed, with 6 seconds left, the Pelicans inbounded the ball in the frontcourt.

Tang Tian was heavily guarded as soon as he ran to receive the ball. Unless he took a contested shot, he wouldn't have a good chance to shoot at all.

But the Pelicans didn't seem to want Tang Tian to shoot the ball. While the Warriors were double-teaming him, Bogdanovic and Harrell ran a similar play.

"Inside! Inside!"

Kerr shouted anxiously from the sidelines.

Trailing by two points, the Pelicans could completely go for another two-point shot. Now that they were in good form, going to overtime would be to their advantage!

The Warriors quickly rotated back to defend.

Tang Tian made a passing motion towards Bogdanovic, forcing Iguodala to run back.

But the next second, Tang Tian dribbled past Thompson with a change of direction and burst out to the three-point line!

A fake pass and a real shot!

It was too late for Iguodala to react. Tang Tian stopped abruptly and jumped up for a three-pointer.

As the ball left his hand, the red light on the sidelines also lit up.

The Pelicans' series of feints had broken through the Warriors' defense, allowing Tang Tian to take the final shot!

Watching the ball spin through the air, the fans in the arena felt their mouths go dry.

They were too familiar with Tang Tian's clutch ability.

"Swish!"

With a crisp sound, in the eyes of the disbelieving fans in the arena, Tang Tian's game-winning shot went in!
