Curry hit a three-pointer as soon as the game started in the third quarter, and the point difference between the two teams immediately widened to 16 points!
James gritted his teeth in frustration!
damn it!
Chasing left and right, focusing on marking, Curry finally found an opportunity to take action!
There is no way, running without the ball is harder to guard than with the ball, not to mention that there is Klay beside him to contain it.
With the ball in hand, you have many limitations. You must dribble the ball before you can take a step, otherwise it will be a walk. At the same time, you cannot second dribble, cannot turn your wrist, and cannot dribble over the shoulder...
Defensive players do not have these restrictions. Compared with offensive players, their only disadvantage is that they are more passive and must take measures based on the actions of offensive players.
Running without the ball is much better. Offensive players are the same as defensive players, so you can run however you want!
In addition, your teammates will screen you when you are running without the ball. Two players running without the ball can also cross-cover. You can even screen your teammates so that they can dunk directly!
In short, as long as you shoot accurately enough and release the ball quickly enough, tactics without the ball are much easier to use than with the ball!
Of course, the premise is that you must be accurate enough, fast enough, and have strong offensive ability with the ball.
Otherwise, your opponent will just switch defenses indefinitely, and you won't have much else to do.
Curry happens to have all these conditions, so it is extremely difficult to defend Curry!
The game continues.
Without Wade, the Heat's only ball-handling point is James, and the Warriors' defensive strategy is simple and crude, which is to let James shoot!
Kirilenko took two steps back, not giving James a chance to break through. He could just shoot a three-pointer if he wanted!
If James and Bosh pick and roll, then switch defenses!
Anyway, Yao Ming's speed after losing weight is not slow. Anyway, he just lets James throw three-pointers outside, and he can be defended by almost everyone!
Better than letting someone else shoot the three-pointer!
Don't be afraid even if James makes the shot, because the Warriors are more accurate!
This is confidence!
Seeing that Kirilenko was trapped inside and couldn't come out, James had no choice but to see that the attack time was coming, so he had to throw a three-pointer casually.
The basketball hit the backboard and bounced into the net.
James jumped three feet high with joy: "Yeah! I made a three-pointer! I can also make a three-pointer!"
James was so excited that he almost told the truth!
Kirilenko didn't care.
Deng Fang had already given the order, just defend like this, no matter how many shots James makes, he doesn't have to worry, the loss is his, it has nothing to do with Kirilenko!
Looking back, Curry dribbled to the top of the key and handed the ball to Kirilenko. He and Klay were still running without the ball.
Kirilenko's three-point shooting is relatively poor, so it will be better to let him deal cards at the top of the arc.
This time James was extremely vigilant and followed closely, and Curry failed to get rid of him several times.
Seeing that the attack time was approaching, Curry quickly ran out to catch the ball.
Kirilenko turned around and handed the ball to Curry, blocking James with his body. Curry also reached out to catch the ball.
There are 3 seconds left in the attack time. Curry must not be allowed to catch the ball at this time!
He must shoot after catching the ball, this is never allowed!
Because James was blocked by Kirilenko, Battier made the save.
But James was already prepared. He pushed with his right hand and jumped out.
Unexpectedly, Kirilenko's move was a fake move. Instead of handing the ball to Curry, he turned around and dribbled toward the basket!
Both men pounced on Curry without the ball, while Kirilenko with the ball was unguarded!
This is Curry's famous strength!
The Heat players' attention is all on the Splash Brothers, and there is no one to defend inside.
Kirilenko directly came up with a 360-degree windmill dunk!
American Airlines Arena was silent!
What's wrong with the Heat's defense?
Curry without the ball messed up the Heat's defense. It's no wonder that such a team can win!
To be honest, the Heat are not to blame for this goal. I can only say that Curry is too much of a threat!
The game continues.
Kirilenko still stayed behind to defend, but James had no choice but to throw another three-pointer.
This time James' luck was gone and he shot a three-pointer!
The Warriors bench burst into laughter!
Is this what you call an emperor?
The emperor of pure Mengpai!
Back, Curry continued to run without the ball, and James followed closely.
Yao Ming blocked it, and James flashed his elbow and squeezed past.
Unexpectedly, Clay immediately came over and switched positions with Curry, directly blocking James.
Continuous cover, or cover between the Splash Brothers!
It was Chalmers who was guarding Klay. His attention was entirely on Klay and he didn't switch out at all!
Not everyone is good at off-ball defense, and not everyone has the emperor’s elbow!
Even if they have elbows, few people dare to throw them out as unscrupulously as the emperor!
Seeing that Curry was about to run over and was still unguarded, James suddenly became anxious.
This is not possible!
The warriors are about to rise!
Curry makes a three-pointer and Kirilenko makes a dunk. If Curry throws in another three-pointer, the Warriors will be completely on the rise!
Once Curry gets into shape and opens up, the game is over!
The most important thing is that the position covered by Curry and Clay was near the three-point line. Curry had already run to the outside of the three-point line. Seeing that James was blocked, Kirilenko also passed the ball!
James was very anxious, but he was blocked by Clay. It was not easy to attack Curry.
But this is not a problem for the emperor!
Seeing that James couldn't squeeze through, he used two unicorn arms to push Clay down!
This time James tried his best!
Clay didn't expect James to exert such force and fell down, just on Curry's leg.
Curry didn’t even expect it!
I ran over and caught the ball, and Klay also blocked James. How could someone still pounce on him?!
Curry had just received the ball, but before he turned around, his back was to Clay. The two were not far away. After Clay fell, his entire upper body was pressed on Curry's legs!
Although Klay is a defender, he weighs close to 200 kilograms. Coupled with James' full push, the impact is not ordinary.
Curry yelled, covering his left ankle in great pain, and the ball in his hand slipped to the ground.
Several people on the field looked at the referee, waiting for the referee to blow the whistle.
James's obvious pushing action must be a foul, right?
Unexpectedly, the referee had no reaction!
Kirilenko shouted: "James pushed someone! He did it on purpose!"
Prince also jumped up: "This is a foul! Flagrant foul!"
The referee remained unmoved.
Only James looked calm and was not surprised by the referee's reaction.
foul?
impossible!
I'm not as stupid as Tucker, I'm the calmest one!
Punch him in the head? I wouldn't do that.
I just want to squeeze through!
I used too much force and accidentally pushed Clay!
It's just an ordinary off-ball foul!
This is the Heat's home court!
I didn't make any moves beyond the scope, and even if someone gets hurt, it has nothing to do with me!
