Anthony never got a good chance. Bargnani moved across from the right side of the three-second zone to pick and roll him. As a result, Wang Zelin and Aldridge switched defenses directly.

Wang Zelin and Bargnani confronted each other and blocked the latter's pick-and-roll. Aldridge moved directly to the left baseline to defend Anthony who was pulled out.

In desperation, Felton could only pull out again to look for opportunities. As soon as he retreated to the free throw line, he saw Shumpert burst in and put a long distance away from Matthews.

Chance!

When the ball arrives, Felton throws the ball to the right side of the backboard...

Wang Zelin, who was struggling with Bargnani, immediately took a step to the left, then turned around and rushed towards the basket. Shampoo was special. His athletic ability was absolutely terrifying. He was a typical jumping man in the league.

Shumpert had just put his foot on the waist in the paint, and when he took off to catch the ball and was about to perform an alley-oop dunk, a figure flashed through his peripheral vision, and he felt something bad in his heart.

"If you want to perform, ask me if I can?"

Wang Zelin quickly went to the basket from the left side of the free throw line and exploded directly...

"Snapped!"

With a wave of his palm, the basketball in Shumpert's hand was slapped out of bounds by Wang Zelin, and he stumbled all the way to the front row of the audience.

"Bang!"

Shumpert underneath him was knocked over.

"Absolute dominance under the basket! Such flying blocks remind people of Dwight Howard during the Magic era!"

Yu Jia sighed with a smile.

Zhang Lili also sighed with emotion: "Yes! The ubiquitous help in the three-point line is the deepest impression that Magic Howard left on the fans! Come to think of it, the defensive energy displayed by the king now is far from the Magic's three DPOY wins.

Howard, it’s not that far off.”

At this time, the scene of Wang Zelin slapping Shuang Porter's attack was completely frozen on the big screen...

Shumpert, who was lying on the ground, looked up and saw the huge figure that completely enveloped him. His eyes widened. He really didn't expect that a good performance moment would be ruined.

When it was clear that the Blazers No. 36 was still so far away from him when he took off... Thinking that he had basically confirmed a spot in the top ten goals tomorrow, and might even be ranked first, Shumpert almost spat out a mouthful of bloody foam.

After a baseline kick, the Knicks continued to organize the offense, with only 4.7 seconds left.

The ball was finally passed to Anthony, who took two steps and made a two-point shot.

Wang Zelin picked off the rebound and all four Blazers players ran forward.

"Andrea, Raymond, get back to defense quickly!"

Knicks Bishop Mike Woodson shouted.

Wang Zelin raised the ball, looked at the frontcourt, and saw Lillard who had passed the center circle. He used both hands to make a long pass.

Hearing sudden exclamations from the sidelines, Lillard knew what was happening without even thinking about it.

When he looked back, he saw that the ball was flying towards him.

He stopped, caught the pass, stood outside the three-point line, adjusted, and took a quick shot.

As soon as the ball was released, Anthony knew something was wrong and returned to defense faster, but it was too late...

"Whoosh!"

Lillard chased and scored a three-pointer.

At 31:33, the Trail Blazers were only 2 points behind.

"Defend this ball!"

Seeing Lillard's goal, Wang Zelin's progress suddenly stopped, and after high-fiving his returning teammates, he did not forget to give a reminder.

"Andrea, serve quickly!"

Anthony seemed to have not seen what just happened and shouted at Bargnani.

Bargnani quickly went up to pick up the ball, passed Felton, and handed the ball to Anthony.

Despite Anthony's expressionless look, it was precisely this look that showed that he was filled with anger.

After dribbling the ball through half court, Anthony made a gesture that he wanted to play singles.

Seeing this scene, Mike Woodson knew: the Anthony that fans are most familiar with is back.

Sure enough, it's okay to share the ball and play without the ball occasionally, but if Anthony doesn't touch the ball for a long time, he will be happy.

After all, he just won the scoring title last year. At this time, Anthony was at his peak and in the melon stage. The Knicks' record is worse, but it does not mean that Anthony's combat effectiveness has also become worse.

At least on the offensive end, Melo, who is going all out, is still unstoppable.

Later in the second quarter, Anthony, who returned to his "normal" style of play, made 5 of 9 shots, 1 of 3 three-pointers, and scored 11 points and 2 rebounds.

At halftime, Anthony's 24 points accounted for half of the Knicks' scoring.

However, Anthony's heroic performance could not lead the team closer to victory. At 49:55, the Trail Blazers overtook the Knicks by 6 points.

Anthony himself got high, but other Knicks-like players didn't have his ability, and they were so overwhelmed by the Blazers' defense.

Seeing the situation develop to this point, the commentators in the TNT live broadcast and the Imperial TV live broadcast let out a long sigh at the same time: This is the right plot!

After all, before the game, all the major media were not optimistic that the Knicks would win. If Anthony really came down from the gods and defeated the Trail Blazers tonight, it would be fun.

Fortunately, the Knicks' short-term lead did not last long, and the media did not worry about being slapped in the face after showing off...

Although they have been slapped in the face a lot in the past.

…

In the away locker room, the players were bragging and spanking.

Batum patted his chest and pretended to be relaxed: "I told you before that the Knicks are just that strong. I really don't know what you were all worrying about before."

"Yo yo yo, I don't know what happened. In the first quarter, Cameron was beaten in all kinds of ways. He was crying and begging us to double team him."

This made Matthews a little bit unbearable, and he started to quarrel with him. Anyway, gay friends often use it to quarrel.

"You are deliberately looking for trouble, right?"

Batum said angrily.

"Ha ha ha ha!"

The surrounding players couldn't help laughing when they saw the performance of this pair of live treasures.

"Okay, boys, listen to me first."

After Terry Stotts gave the order, everyone immediately put away their smiles, sat upright, and turned to look in the direction of the head coach.

"In the second half, we will change to the second lineup first and let Wang and the others rest for a while." Then he turned to look at Kevin Garnett: "Before the main players go on the court, I hope that the score can be maintained with the Knicks. Kevin

, you can do it, right?”

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content behind! Kevin Garnett stretched himself: "I have been resting for such a long time, and I don't want to be criticized by the fans for messing around."

Then, he thought to himself at this moment: It turns out that it feels so comfortable to be able to win games while just dawdling around, and get paid by the way.

Immediately afterwards, Mo Williams made a promise: "Don't worry, Mr. Stotts, I guarantee that when they come back, the team will still be ahead."

He couldn't help but not be anxious.

As Beverley's performance gets better and better, and his defense can greatly make up for the Blazers' lack of defense at the inside one position, his playing time gradually increases.

Correspondingly, Mo Williams' playing time had to begin to decrease.

After all, rotation players only have so much playing time, and he must seize every second.

The reason why I chose to join the Portland Trail Blazers is not only that the Trail Blazers have great hope of winning the championship, but also because the only two Chinese players currently in the league are in the Trail Blazers, which is a good traffic gathering place.

As long as you can put up relatively good data with the Trail Blazers, it won't be easy to use it as a springboard to sign another good contract when the contract year comes.

In this regard, Mo Williams sees this more clearly than many players in the league.

For a role player like him, a championship is nothing, and his historical status in the back row after retirement is not his turn. There are very few candidates to be elected to the Hall of Fame. It is better to play for a few more years while he can, and gain more.

Sign a good contract.

"Um."

Seeing this, Terry Stotts nodded with satisfaction.

In fact, as the head coach, he has always seen the competition between Mo Williams and Beverley.

But again, competition is inevitable in any workplace, and the NBA is no exception.

The premise is to maintain healthy competition.

…

At the beginning of the second half, the two sides changed sides and fought again.

The Trail Blazers sent all substitute players to play. On the Knicks' side, Anthony remained on the court with his sword guard JR, his partner Stoudemire, and the remaining two supporting players that Wang Zelin couldn't name.

Go to war.

Sitting on the bench, Wang Zelin watched the lineup of Mo Williams, Connett Lee, Will Barton, Yi Jianlian, and Garnett come on the court, and then looked at the opposing Knicks lineup.

He suddenly felt that there weren't many reliable defenders on the opposite side. Even if he couldn't guard Anthony, he could still try his best to attack.
