Live broadcast on December 10 -18 years ago today, McGrady cut 13 points in 35 seconds and staged the shocking “McGrady time”.
On December 10, 2004, in the NBA regular season, the Rockets played Spurs at home, and the Rockets were 54-58 behind in the first three seasons. Most of the time in the last quarter, Spurs took the initiative. When McGrady hit the three points against Malik-rose in the last 35 seconds, there were still not many people who believed that the rocket had the chance to turn over, because the score at this time is 71-76, and the opponent is the old San Antonio Homa Spurs.
But the rocket did not give up. After Sura intentional foul, Devin-Brown was punished in full, 71-78. McGrady arrived at the front court fengshui ball, used Yao Ming’s shield to bypass Bowen, and then used fake actions to trick Duncan and threw the ball into the whistle! McGrady steadily sent in, 75-78!
Padgett fouled Duncan, and Shi fo was punished for both, 75-80. The rocket paused and sent back sideline ball. McGrady had a hard time getting the ball and transported it to the outside of three point line. The strict guard against Bowen twisted his body and pulled it out again! 78-80!
At this time, Spurs was shocked by McGrady’s momentum. German-Brown made a mistake under the interference of Yao Ming and Paget fengshui ball. McGrady quickly seized the title of the ball and rushed forward, in the face of many people chasing and blocking the gap, three points are steadily racing in! 81-80! After McGrady scored, he roared and waved his fist to vent his emotions, and the Toyota Center was boiling!
With Parker’s last Super-far three points not entering, the game was settled. With McGrady’s last-minute changing destiny, the Rockets finally won the epic battle.
