376: Add until one of the parties falls (Happy New Year!)(2/5)
Nash comfortably fed the ball to Li Ang. Li Ang was about to turn over and shoot a jump shot, but found Jun Zilei double-teaming him!
Junzilei double-teamed, which meant that Jonson was left empty-handed.
Li Ang thought twice and decided to do it himself.
Instead of shooting when he is so close to the basket, he passes the ball to his teammates outside the three-point line.
This is not a blame-shifting behavior.
Of course, since Ray Allen is double-teamed, it is naturally impossible for Li Ang to continue to use jump shots to solve the problem.
Before Jun Zilei double-teamed him, Li Ang suddenly turned his back and walked toward the basket along the baseline!
With the speed attribute of 90 and the blessing of Barkley's back-turning badge, Lewis simply couldn't stop Li Ang's first step in turning around!
Li Ang easily turned around and ran towards the penalty area, then jumped directly to prepare for a dunk.
But the Sonics did not sit still. Seeing Li Ang break through, team center Jerome James took the risk of being dunked and actively filled the position.
Jerome James is a blue-collar center. Although his statistics this season are not very good, his attitude on the defensive end is still very upright and positive.
The reason is simple, he has reached the end of his contract year.
For a little-known blue-collar center like him, if he fails to leave a deep impression on others during the contract years, his final result will most likely be to say goodbye to the NBA.
Jerome James knows this truth well, so his performance on the defensive end this season is quite impressive.
In the original history, Jerome relied on his outstanding performance in this contract year to get a five-year, $30 million contract from the Knicks at the age of 30.
Well, that's right, it's the Knicks again.
As the saying goes, money can make the world go round, and money can make the relationship between licking and being licked interchangeable.
If you have money, Jerome James doesn't care if he is used as a backdrop.
He actively defended in front of Li Ang, and at the same time, Lewis and Ray Allen also chased back.
The moment Li Ang took off, there were three players guarding him!
"Li, facing a three-man defense, he still jumps to attack the frame. What will he do!?"
In the air, Lewis, Ray Allen and Jerome James all actively reached for the ball.
The closest among them is Jerome James.
James saw that his hand was about to cover the ball, but at this moment, Li Ang turned sideways in the air and pulled the ball down.
Use a beautiful folding back buckle to dodge the block and score successfully!
At that moment, the entire Phoenix City was cheering.
Li Ang actually used a dunk contest-like acrobatic move to score this crucial goal!
Turn around and fold the back buckle. In actual combat, this action is usually only used during fast breaks.
Then he must be a player with strong dunk ability.
For some people who are weak in dunking ability, during a fast break, let alone a fold-back dunk, you would not know if they were gliding in the sky or gliding on the floor even if they were just dunking normally.
But Li Ang, in a three-man double attack, used a fancy dunk to overtake the score at the critical moment of the game!
The most important thing is that Li Ang's fancy dunks are not tricks for the sake of tricks, but he develops these actions in a practical direction.
When a normal person dunks, who would think of using folding dunks to avoid the defense?
Li Ang can do it.
Although this is not the first time Li Ang has done this, Li Ang still won unanimous praise for using a dunk to overtake the score at this critical moment.
After this dunk, Li Ang also scored the 40th point of the game!
Li Ang didn't feel good in the first half, but he still scored 15 points by taking more shots. After getting into shape in the second half, including the ball just now, he scored 25 points in the half.
It adds up to exactly 40 points.
This is also the second time Li Ang scored 40 points since he scored 50 points against the Trail Blazers at the end of December.
After Li Ang scored, he smiled at Jun Zi Lei.
The status of the top five shooting guards cannot be trampled upon by anyone!
First of all, you must at least not be a serious shooting guard before you can become one of the top five shooting guards!
You are a serious second position player and you deserve not to be one of the top five shooting guards.
As we all know, there is no shooting guard among the top five shooting guards.
After Li Ang scored, the Suns took the lead by one point, and the game was about to end with only 28 seconds left.
The Sonics have one last chance to change their fate.
Looking at it now, the Sun is definitely the more dominant side.
AI is happy, so I said that this brother Li Zi can get along well, and he will really help when something happens!
Unlike the other two, he just shouted loudly.
Kobe was unconvinced. AI, you were talking as if you had won. Didn’t you also lose to Junzi Lei?
AI: How can we lose in the MVP matter? What I did was help Li Ang find out the truth!
Last season, also at the last minute, Ray Allen was directly blocked by Li Ang, causing the Sonics to lose the game.
But this season, after the version update, Ray Allen believes that he can definitely escape such humiliation.
SuperSonics coach McMillan called a timeout to arrange this last life-saving attack.
Everyone knows that this ball will definitely go to Ray Allen.
Sure enough, when the timeout ended and Ray Allen came on the court again, he saw Li Ang guarding him.
Ray Allen didn't talk trash. He's not the kind of player who likes to talk trash.
He just stood silently next to Li Ang, calmly waiting for the referee to kick off.
The referee blew the whistle and passed the ball to Jerome James.
Ski man Radmanovic set up a screen on the right side of the court, and Ray Allen immediately moved in the direction of the screen.
It stands to reason that as long as Li Ang catches up in time and bypasses the pick-and-roll to bite Ray Allen, there won't be a big problem.
However, Ray Allen is not alone in running the Sonics.
The Sonics' second-year point guard Luke Ridnour, who performed well today, also ran from the other side to where Radmanovic set up a screen.
Ray Allen and Ridnour crossed paths around the ski man.
If it were normal, Li Ang would definitely attack Ray Allen without even thinking about it.
But today, Ridnour's performance was also very good.
In this game, Ridnour made 11 of 18 shots and scored 26 points.
As we all know, Nash is a data amplifier.
He can not only amplify his teammates' data, but also his opponent's data.
Nash was blocked by Radmanovic's pick-and-roll. If Li Ang insisted on chasing Ray Allen, Ridnour would be completely left empty-handed.
This is also a very dangerous thing.
Forced to go rogue, Li Ang had no choice but to switch defenses!
He switched defense to Ridnour, and then Nash chased Junzi Lei.
It is better to have someone defending than to directly let others go.
Seeing this situation, Jerome James passed the ball to Ray Allen.
Ray Allen was not in a hurry, but waved his hand and motioned for everyone to pull away.
Ridnour deliberately moved to the bottom corner, preventing Li Ang from switching back.
The Sonics get the mismatch they've been dreaming of!
"Fuck!" Li Ang cursed secretly, your move is too vicious.
What's wrong with bullying a girl!?
I don’t care, whoever has longer hair is a girl!
Ray Allen looked at Nash and his confidence increased a lot.
Last time, it was Li Ang who killed me. This time, it’s my turn to reciprocate!
I am a cultural person, so I still understand the rules of courtesy and reciprocity.
Junzi Lei kept possession of the ball until there were only 5 seconds left in the 24-second attack time, and then suddenly accelerated and broke forward.
Nash reacted and immediately blocked it.
Again, Nash's poor defense is not because he doesn't have to think or reacts slowly.
The hardware does not meet the requirements.
