Seeing that the attack time was about to come, James forced a three-pointer.
The one guarding James is Laga Bell, who has a lot of experience.
Most teams' strategy for defending James is to prevent sudden shots, and the Warriors are certainly no exception.
But defense cannot be static and depends on the situation.
Since the opponent has no choice but to shoot, he cannot retreat at this time!
Most people can't guard James' shots because he has good physical fitness and is too threatening to break through.
But once the opponent is prepared, it will be different!
As soon as James collected the ball, Laga Bell was ready to take off.
As soon as James jumped up, Laga Belle was already flying in the air!
No matter how high the shooter jumps, his arms are still bent, while the arms of the blocker are straight.
Before James could straighten his arm, Lagabelle's slap arrived.
With a "pop" sound, the basketball was slapped away by Laga Bell!
It's clean, without touching James' hand at all!
But James still yelled "Ah" and then looked at the referee.
He hit!
foul!
Shooting foul!
Three free throws!
Referee, blow the whistle!
James screamed loudly and his landing movements were exaggerated, but the referee ignored him.
Do you really think we are blind?
We still want to walk out of Oracle Arena alive!
We also want to have a peaceful sleep at night!
Seeing that the referee was unmoved, James had no choice but to give up.
It's not a glorious thing to have a shot blocked face to face!
But James didn't care so much anymore, he quickly went to grab the basketball on the ground.
If the referee does not blow the whistle, the game must continue.
The basketball was slapped near the midline by Lagabell, and Azubuike and Prince rushed forward immediately.
Gibson and Anthony Parker were not slow to react either.
A bunch of people huddled together.
The basketball rolled around on the ground and rolled right in front of Curry.
There are less than 2 seconds left in the second quarter!
Curry picked up the basketball, raised his hand and threw it out!
Curry's feet stood inside the three-point line.
Yes, inside the three-point line!
It’s just inside the three-point line in the backcourt!
There are several people near the center line, and it is impossible to dribble past them.
Besides, there's not enough time.
It's just a matter of luck.
The basketball drew a beautiful arc in the air and went straight to the basket!
This is almost a shot across the entire court!
The entire audience widened their eyes and stared at the basketball.
Players from both teams stood there motionless, watching the basketball fly toward the basket.
With a "swipe" sound, the basketball fell into the net bag!
At the same time, the red light on the timer also turned on!
Super super long three-pointer!
Or enter the network empty-handedly!
Curry is awesome!
You can throw it in from such a distance!
No, throw it in!
Even if it’s blind, it’s still awesome!
More than 10,000 spectators at Oracle Arena shouted "Curry, MVP!"
The Warriors players also ran over and bumped shoulders with Curry one by one to celebrate!
The Cavaliers were all extremely depressed.
Such a shot has a huge impact on morale.
Curry is crazy!
Any shot like this can go in!
If it keeps going like this, it's better to just admit defeat.
Curry's touch in the first half was so good that it felt like he was wearing an eight-fold mirror!
One shot at a time, and they were all headshots!
This half of the game almost became Curry's performance alone!
The referee did not hesitate this time and made a three-point gesture.
Although Curry stood inside the three-point line this time, there was no doubt about this three-pointer.
At the end of the half, the score became 80:47.
The Warriors lead by 33 points!
Looking at the score on the big screen, A Smith in the commentary box sighed: "Curry is so amazing. He almost defeated the Cavaliers by himself!"
Reggie Miller on the side also said: "Yes, the Cavaliers' offense is not bad, 47 points at halftime, which is a lot, but the Warriors' offensive firepower is too fierce!"
A Smith nodded and said: "The key problem is that Curry doesn't play much time, and his scoring power is too explosive!"
…
At the end of the half, Curry played a total of 15 minutes and scored 28 points, while also sending out 12 assists, grabbing 6 rebounds, and 2 steals!
The most important thing is that Curry did not make a single mistake!
This data is too scary!
Curry can score almost 2 points every minute he plays, and he also gives out almost an assist!
More than half of the team's points are related to Curry!
This is the role of a team leader!
On the other hand, James played a total of 21 minutes, took 14 shots, and scored 11 points, 4 assists, and 8 rebounds.
At the same time, James also made 4 mistakes!
Compared with Curry, this efficiency is simply in the sky and on the ground!
After the intermission, the second half of the game started.
This time Mike Brown learned his lesson and O'Neal no longer started.
The Cavaliers' starting five are Mo Williams, Gibson, Anthony Parker, James, and Jamison.
This is also the Cavaliers' strongest offensive five-man group.
It seems that Mike Brown is thinking about it and wants to fight the Warriors offensively in the second half.
Four of the five Cavaliers are three-point shooters, and their shooting percentages are pretty good.
One star radiates everywhere, and the quality of these radiates is very critical.
If the four shots are not strong enough, one star cannot be opened.
Of course, whether Sishe can have a chance to shoot depends on the strength of this star.
This star cannot attract double teams, and of course there will be no good shooting opportunities if he shoots all around.
The Cavaliers want to compete offensively with the Warriors, but Deng Fang will not follow their ideas.
The five players sent by the Warriors are Livingston, Azubuike, Laga Bell, Prince and DeAndre Jordan!
Curry did not start the game!
The iron-locked copper formation appears again!
Obviously, Deng Fang meant to hold on!
Just keep the point difference!
I'm so far ahead, why take that risk?
Curry sprained his foot once. If he gets injured again and can't play, he will be in trouble!
There was not much time left in the final stage of the first half, and Curry was feeling hot, so it was nothing to let him play the remaining two minutes.
It would be very dangerous to let Curry play as soon as the second half begins!
Who knows what tactics the Cavaliers deployed in the locker room during halftime?
Who knows what the league's number one player will do if he loses badly?
You must not have the intention of harming others, and you must have the intention of guarding against others!
The Cavaliers' lineup is small and fast.
Jamison was originally in the 4th position, but now he is forced to move to the 5th position!
Mo and Gibson are both short and neither are very good defensively.
Anthony Parker's defense is good, but he can't be called very good.
Of these five, only James is great defensively.
The offensive end depends on James, and the defensive end puts more pressure on James!
The Cavaliers were focused on playing fast, but they played into the Warriors' hands!
Deng Fang's arrangement is to defend and counterattack!
As long as you are on guard, counterattack!
Knights are fast, warriors are not slow at all!
Although the four of Livingston, Azubuike, Laga Bell and Prince are all very high in their respective positions, they are not slow.
Even Jordan is not much slower than Jamison due to his youth.
