Three-pointer, Zhang Yang did not attempt many in the Eastern Conference Finals, and Hamilton did not expect him to choose this play at a clutch moment—he didn't close out in time... and then turned his head just to see the ball fall through the hoop!
He made it! At the critical moment, Zhang Yang mimicked Erha and Little Fatty's playing style, retreating for a three-pointer, and it went in!
105 to 107, the Bobcats reduced the gap to two points! At the critical moment, Zhang Yang once again rose to the occasion!
In the following rounds, neither team scored on their offensive possessions. When it was the Piston's turn to attack with only 28 seconds remaining, Billups brought the ball up to the frontcourt but didn't initiate the offense, looking to run down the clock... Zhang Yang left Prince unguarded, went to the top of the arc, and double-teamed Billups with Gerald Wallace.
Billups tried to pass the ball... but made a mistake!
Gerald Wallace with the steal!
