The No.1 Anti-Fans in Basketball-Chapter 499 - 250: Wasteland Punk, Steam Hansen_3

Randolph, Little Gasol, and Guy all performed well in the first half.

During the half-time break, Hansen’s condition looked noticeably better than it had in the first half.

The fever-reducing medicine had started to take effect, and once his temperature normalized, Hansen’s whole demeanor began to change.

In the first move of the second half, he made a cut and completed a slam dunk that shocked the home crowd.

The Grizzlies’ morale was boosted as a result.

Throughout the third quarter, Hansen scored 14 points, equaling his total from the first half.

Under his leadership, the Grizzlies outscored the Heat 32 to 22 in the quarter, trailing 75 to 82 at the end of the third quarter, now leading by 7 points!

This had the home Heat fans on edge.

They really didn’t understand what Hansen’s physical condition was anymore!

At the start of the fourth quarter, Hansen sat on the bench, drinking saline solution heavily.

He didn’t need to worry about his urine output because the water he drank would soon be sweated out.

Generally speaking, fever-reducing medication can last from half an hour to two hours.

But as it turned out, that was when someone wasn’t engaging in intense physical activity.

After the third-quarter game, Hansen’s fever had flared up again immediately.

Moreover, after more than a quarter of play, more precisely over an hour, his body temperature was much higher than before the game.

The team doctor came over to measure it and it was nearly 40 degrees.

The team doctor hesitated to speak but knew Hansen would not choose to give up in the final moments.

At the opening of the fourth quarter, under Bosh’s leadership, the Heat furiously counterattacked.

They were not going to concede defeat.

When the game had gone on for just over three minutes, the Heat had narrowed the gap to just three points, a single-score difference.

Joerger wanted to give Hansen more time to rest, but the situation of the game didn’t allow it.

He sent his starters back early.

Coach Spoelstra on the Heat’s side did the same thing.

The game prematurely entered its decisive moment.

"Defense! Defense!"

At this moment, the shouts from the crowd were deafening; the continuous scoring from the Heat raised the home crowd’s spirits.

The Heat’s defensive intensity on the court was maximized.

The Grizzlies couldn’t create opportunities through their continuous tactics.

Little Gasol was looking for Hansen while handling the ball at a high post.

The two exchanged hand-offs at the high post, and Hansen took the ball without an extra move and shot from mid-range.

"Swish!"

Although Perkins leaped forward with his hands high, Hansen still made the shot over him.

After landing, Hansen took a deep breath.

The high fever made it difficult for him to keep his breathing stable, and disordered breathing could deform his technical movements. He could only rely on holding his breath to complete the technical action.

Hansen’s basket was key, visibly stabilizing the Grizzlies on the court.

After retreating to the defensive end, Durant’s shot was fiercely disrupted by Guy, and the Heat failed to continue scoring.

The defensive shouting continued in the arena, and the Heat’s defensive intensity remained high.

Little Gasol almost repeated the same hand-off tactic, but this time the Heat’s defense pushed even further forward. Hansen chose to break inside.

He charged toward the basket, his steps a bit staggering, but as he burst into the three-second area, he pumped and turned for a fadeaway shot, dodging Bosh’s lunging defense.

Bosh lunged fiercely and ended up knocking Hansen down, drawing a foul from the referee.

Guy and Randolph quickly ran over to help Hansen up.

Feeling the temperature of Hansen’s hands, their bodies tensed subconsciously.

Hansen had two free throw opportunities.

The noise in the arena was intense.

Hansen took a deep breath for each free throw, making both.

This stirred some restlessness in the crowd.

In the camera’s lens, Hansen’s face looked terribly pale, but his hands were still incredibly steady!

In a crucial moment, Durant made a run for a three-pointer and scored!

After scoring, Durant clenched his fists and roared, Death had descended on the American Airlines Arena at that moment.

The crowd went wild, followed by even louder defensive cheers.

The Heat brought out even more intense defense.

Hansen, under the effect of his high fever, rapidly declined in offensive capability and could only stand at the weak-side 45-degree three-point line to create space.

Randolph, heavily defended in the low post, directly threw the ball to Hansen, who was further away.

The pass was risky and was nearly intercepted by Wade.

Hansen caught the ball, held his breath, feigned a shot to shake off the charging Wade, and then after one dribble, he shot a three-pointer.

"Swish!"

Hansen made the three-pointer!

He had scored 7 points since the start of the fourth quarter!

And just after landing, Hansen let out another breath.

This moment was captured by a photographer, causing another stir in the crowd.

In the camera, the steaming Hansen looked like a steam-powered robot from a post-apocalyptic punk world.
