James said nothing, but his eyes were full of anger.
At this time, Mo Williams was very aware of it and knew that James was a powder keg at this time, and he would blow it up if he ordered it.
So, after halftime, he handed over the ball to James and opened up the space by himself.
Lian Dao was also very serious at this time. He didn't want to fight against James who was full of strength. In the collision just now, Lian Dao knew that he would definitely not be able to gain a advantage when fighting against James.
But at this time, others have been labeled as background boards, so you have to bear the consequences.
Moreover, since you match it, there is no possibility of giving up!
Therefore, this time, Lian Dao also gained 200% concentration.
Although there was a long time ago an estimate of James' confrontation, he still underestimated all-out James.
James used his shoulders to resist Lian Dao's body, then made room to turn and rush to the basket with a crab step.
With Millsap's backup defense, he dunked the basketball towards the basket.
2:2.
James, who finished the dunk, also chose to return to defense without saying a word.
At this time, the Knicks served quickly, and Lian Dao received a long pass from Chris Duhon in the middle line.
Then start quickly, break through James' defense directly through speed and break into the basket. O'Neal had not returned to the basket at this time.
Lian Dao made a layup based on Wa Laiqiao who was restoring defense.
2:4.
This is the tactics against the Cavaliers.
Speed, speed, or his speed.
As long as you speed up, you will be five to four against you.
Because of O'Neal's speed, it's now the rear of the crane.
This is also a evasion. If you fight the Cavaliers in a position, no one in the Knicks can defend O'Neal, even if he is 37 years old now.
Looking back, Lian Dao also opened up a certain amount of space and focused on defending James' breakthrough.
James made two tentative breakthroughs in succession, and because Lian Dao maintained the interception space, they all returned empty-handedly.
At this time, after seeing the space distance between the two, James also chose to shoot three points from the outside.
Lian Dao suddenly stepped forward and made an oppressive interference with James' shot.
When James saw Lian Dao suddenly stepped forward, he felt panicked and there was a deviation in his actions.
"clang!"
James angrily regained his iron.
O'Neal also showed his strength as a giant under the basket at this time, and he was about to win the rebound if he beat David Lee and Millsap.
However, suddenly a big yellow-skinned hand appeared on the top of his head, and then he took the basketball first and put it in his bag.
It turned out to be Lian Dao. The moment James took action, he hurriedly turned around and ran to the basket. Looking at James's hand shape, Lian Dao knew that 80% of the ball hit the iron.
Therefore, he also estimated the basketball's landing point and jumped on O'Neal's head to take off and took the rebound.
"Counterattack!"
"quick!"
After Lian Dao picked the rebound, he did not stop and passed it directly to Chris Duhong who was about to go down.
Then, Liandao attacked at the fastest speed.
James was the fastest player to return to defense at this time, and in addition to that were Anthony Parker and Mo Williams.
And all five of the Knicks were in a fast attack again.
Lian Dao was passed by Chris Duhon outside the three-point line, using Millsap's pick-and-roll to get rid of James' defense, and then quickly made a three-pointer from the outside.
"brush!"
Three-pointer hit.
2:7.
Fast and accurate!
The audience burst into cheers again.
At this time, the Knicks' bench was also full of joy, and Dako Mirisic's towel was dancing to him.
This time, James received the ball and had no choice to let Mo Williams dribble.
Instead, he dribbled through half the game.
At this time, the DJ was shouting defense, and the audience also shouted: defense! defense!
The atmosphere at home reached its peak.
The sound wave kept exploding in my ears like a sonic boom.
In this atmosphere, all the Knicks players were excited.
Everyone is careful to defend.
Millsap and David Lee also kept competing with Varaijo and O'Neal for the position at the basket.
You push and shove each other, and your muscles collided, and you can say that the inside line has become a meat grinder.
No one expected that this ordinary regular season defense would work so hard, and he simply regarded this game as a playoff.
James, this time, he still failed to break through Lian Dao through the "tank collision".
At this time, Anthony Parker also stepped forward to carry out a pick-and-roll. James took advantage of Anthony Parker's pick-and-roll short gap and rushed to the basket.
After all, Anthony Parker's pick-and-roll quality is not as high as that of inside players, and Lian Dao also caught up with him at this time.
Millsap, who is inside, also double-teamed James with Lian Dao.
James has not yet developed the inside back technology.
Facing Lian Dao and Mirthap, his strength was not superior at this time.
But at this time, James still pushed Millsap hard and chose to shoot.
At this time, Lian Dao jumped up from the side and then slapped the shot out with a slap.
"Let you rush into the tank and give you a big pocket!"
This volleyball-style hat also slapped the basketball directly into the audience.
Cavaliers' ball rights.
After re-serving, the Cavaliers have little time left.
After receiving the serve from Mo Williams, James had no chance to break through several times. In the remaining 3 seconds, he passed the ball to Varaijo.
After Varaicho received the ball, he had only 1.5 seconds left and he rushed to shoot.
David Lee grabbed a defensive rebound.
Then pass it on to the soon-to-be-drawn Lianjiu.
At this time, we have to say that David Lee, who passed the ball very well and was also one of the initiators of the defensive counterattack defined by D'Antoni.
At this time, Lian Dao received a pass from David Lee to cross the half-court and Millsap's quick pick-and-roll.
After the pick-and-roll, the clean rice accelerated its breakthrough.
Walaiqiao changed to anti-theft and clean rice at this time.
Lian Dao only made a prayer to Buddha, and then he accelerated to break through to the basket.
Varaiqiao could not make effective defense against Lian Dao at all.
Break into the penalty area and face the unguarded empty basket.
Lian Dao took off like a rocket, turned 180° and changed hands under his crotch and dunked.
"Bang!"
2:9.
The ball is in, a perfect practical dunk performance.
Since the bounce has risen, this kind of dunk is simply a pediatric for Lian Dao.
From then on, Lian Dao also became a player who grew up with the help of yellow.
The fans in the audience burst into deafening cheers again.
This is simply watching the dunk conference!
To be honest, the Knicks fans were so excited that they didn’t cheer so excitedly. The last time Ewing was when he was in the Knicks.
But since Ewing left, the Knicks' record has been getting worse every year, and the Knicks fans have been sad again and again. They seem to have no hope of the Knicks reaching the finals.
The brainless transactions have completely hurt the hearts of Knicks fans.
Until this year, they once again saw hope for the rise of the Knicks. When everyone was not optimistic, the Knicks started with five consecutive victories.
This also greatly inspired the enthusiasm hidden deep in the Knicks fans.
They completely released the passion that was accumulated in their hearts at this moment.
The momentum brought by that brought even the Cavaliers who made it to the finals were shocked.
The Knicks played the Cavaliers 2:9 at the beginning.
Originally in the inside line, who was originally in an advantageous position, he didn't expect that it would become the biggest loophole when encountering the Knicks.
O'Neal's footsteps could not keep up with the Knicks' fast attack at all.
O'Neal was trained by the Knicks almost all the time!
And, James' breakthrough was blocked by Lian Dao at this time.
It can be said that the Cavaliers were hit by the beginning.
