Chapter 502 New York lost, but the king of New York did not lose
Just like the fight between Papalucas and Crawford at the beginning, the conversation between Sherlock and James is also the ultimate in both styles.
Xie Hou plays pick-and-roll. In order to stimulate James and let him see the difference between the two, he makes a jump shot from mid to long distance every time he makes.
James knew that his shooting ability was not as good as Xie Hou, and he was committed to maximizing his athletic talent.
In the future, Barkley will consider James the best player ever at some time.
He is so strong, like a tank, but so fast and has excellent coordination.
Those great talents always have the characteristics of success no matter what era they are put into.
The wonderful showdown between the two has added a lot of color to the Christmas battle.
In the first half, Xie Hou scored 18 points, 7 rebounds and 7 assists, James scored more, and he scored 20 points, 5 rebounds and 4 assists.
Although this move to open up space and fight alone is monotonous, it is difficult to solve.
The interference that Kirilenko can do alone is limited. When the Pacers restrict James the most, they are in a well-equipped position.
With a helping defender like Kirilenko, the only small forward blocker in history (although the Pacers have always played power forwards), his most outstanding is his various switches, rotations and replacements, and assisted blocks are not enough to show his value.
However, inside players like O'Neal Jr. can better show their value when defending James.
James' active performance is comparable to Xie Hou.
Fans are getting used to them playing consistently.
"It seems that lbj has indeed made great progress. In the past, he could not have made such good data in front of Arthur," Leonard said.
McGuinness quoted what Shehou said in a half-time interview: "It's too early to draw a conclusion, let's continue to read. Didn't Arthur say it? LeBron's performance is surprising, and he will work harder in the second half."
Media people can read his implication with just a little taste.
In the locker room at halftime, completely different arrangements were made on both sides.
If the Knicks want to display their offensive talent, it is best to catch up with the score difference in the half quarter; the Pacers are completely the opposite, and Claire wants the players to calm down and fight slowly.
"Don't think about counterattacking. The New Yorkers won't give us a chance to counterattack easily." Claire said heavily, "Defense is the basis and foundation for winning, work harder!"
It's not empty talk for Claire to strengthen his defense.
At the beginning of the second half, Xie Hou first passed James' defense from the outside, supported the ball with his long arm, and scored with a super hand.
56 to 49
The advantage of 7 points is no more or less.
New Yorkers will feel pressure. If they can't make a comeback and are caught and fought back by the Pacers, the score gap will widen.
It was roughly this routine that they lost to the Pacers in the past few years.
There are very few games that can be stalemate with the opponent until the end, and many of them are behind by playing a lot.
Artest stood in front and led the defense fiercely.
The home advantage gave convenience, and without violating the principles, Artest recreated the defensive oppressiveness of the DPOY season.
Jason Richardson, who felt cold in the first half, went to the left to catch the ball.
Xie Houping split his hands and was impressed by the man's athletic talent. As an influential dunker, his series of hand-changing dunks led a tide.
Xie Hou is always wary of his activation.
Richardson lacks the offensive ability at low posts, so even if he wants to play status, Xie Hou doesn't have to worry. There is a gap in their tonnage, and if the opponent really wants to play low posts, he will suffer.
Richardson's attention was on Xie Hou for a moment.
The temptation to defeat the league's number one in a certain round is greater than anything else. He did not notice that Papalucas was approaching. Just as he launched an offensive, Sino-Greece friendly double-teamed on him.
Two tall, long and thick guards were suffocating against a 198-centimeter swingman at the same time. Richardson's physical fitness for the league could not bring him any benefits.
In a blink of an eye, his ball was knocked off by the Greek quick-shou sword.
The ball was almost out of bounds, and Xie Hou flew to hug the surfing ball.
The New Yorker wants to grab the ball, but he can still make a scramble. How could Xie Hou let them succeed? Even if he can't control his body, he can use his hands to hit the ball at an extremely bad level to the front.
"Magic pass!"
"Arthur lies on his side and passes a strong pass!"
As Xie Hou's personal attack became more and more eye-catching, few people would say that he was a magician.
Especially when he scored 80 points in the third quarter against the Mavericks in 2005-2006, he broke Baylor's single-game scoring record in the finals against the Mavericks in the finals, and even fewer people compared him with the Magic.
The highest score in a single game in the Magic's career was 46 points, and the season with the most average scores was 23.9 points. In terms of scoring, he and Arthur were not on the same level.
Whenever people forget this: Arthur's template is the Magician. He will pass a Magician-style pass at a certain moment.
Artest got a big advantage, and he received one of the top ten passes of this season and easily staged a counterattack dunk.
58 to 49
"Coach, let us increase the intensity of our defense!" Xie Hou shouted, "I think it wasn't big enough just now, it could be bigger, let the New Yorkers have a good look!"
“!¥%¥”
He has the offensive ability to create miracles, the creativity to create something out of nothing in an unfavorable situation, the perseverance, the tough personal will of Pacers as strong as the pioneers of all generations, and the personal charm of a hundred calls.
When he asked his teammates for such a loud voice, no one opposed it, he received a unanimous response.
This is obviously something James is currently in urgent need.
He was destined to achieve greatness, and his talent stinged the eyes of many people. He was both hardworking and smart, but he still lacked the execution ability of Xie Hou to lead by example.
The team needed an offense, and he was the first to stand up.
The coach asked for defense, and he executed it perfectly.
A perfect defense is not enough, he wants more.
His greed and arrogance are equal, and only those who are greedy enough will not be easily satisfied.
James was stunned by the Pacers' defensive pressure.
Instead of using his invincible talent to break the deadlock like before, he passed the ball to Randolph. The Black Fatty has various shortcomings, but his offensive ability is unquestionable.
During this period when the Pacers started, he fought very vigorously.
Foster's defense was shaken away by his steps, and he scored a small hook, recovering 2 points.
51 to 58
Xie Hou strolled, and James' defense was relaxed.
What stimulation did he get? Xie Hou was not sure, and James seemed to be often trapped by some unspeakable thoughts.
Unfortunately, he is not a psychiatrist. If he is, he is unwilling to treat James. The worse the condition of this guy is, the more beneficial it is to them. What, aren’t they friends? Of course, yes, but how many times have they said it? Do you understand plastic friendship?
Anyway, Xie Hou has never seen friends who are trying to defeat each other every day and deliberately trying to suppress each other.
Xie Hou waved his hand and asked Kirirenko to come up and roll.
Xie Hou and Wang Zhizhi are not the only ones who mastered the technique of stopping time.
Their teammates have discovered this, and the Knicks don't care about the receivers at the free throw line.
Xie Hou has too much influence. As long as he takes the ball to attack, their opponent's defense will definitely shrink.
In this way, the person on the free throw line missed.
Randolph and Banyani, who should have been supporting the inside line, were either out of personal wishes or out of being too slow to be in place.
Kirilenko enjoyed the treatment of Wang Zhizhi.
60 to 51
It was defense again, and James found that every time the Pacers found a breakthrough, they were inside.
The Pacers bullied them the weak inside defense and kept attacking fiercely.
Tonight, they ignored their assisted defense in the inside and looked for free throw opportunities again. Randolph and Banyani, the two bastards, really gave them a chance. They were there and they couldn't go up.
Half a minute ago, James was shocked by Xie Hou's momentum, and now he has to fight for the winning rate of the game.
The inside defense cannot count on it, and it is highly likely to be scored in each round, and it is 9 points behind - these factors add up to one word of loss.
No one wants to lose, James never wants to lose.
It took him about eight minutes to prove it.
Within eight minutes, he felt as if someone had been using Kobe's blood and was crazy, and he kept attacking without knowing where the pass key was.
He always plays at the basket. Even if there is no solution to the breakthrough, it is still easy to target a single ending method.
James was anxious and broke up with his teammates' cooperation. Xie Hou was completely opposite. James attacked to the end, but he passed the ball to the end.
James did not respond to the ball when he played on the offensive end, and it felt like there was no need to respond.
At the end of the third quarter, James scored 36 points, 8 rebounds and 5 assists.
1 assist in a single quarter.
His statistics are beautiful and his performance is great, but the Knicks are 14 points behind in three quarters.
In the fourth section, the trend of lag is still continuing.
James finally played a game that beat Xie Hou in statistics.
In the whole game, James scored 45 points, 10 rebounds and 7 assists, while Xie Hou on the opposite side had 22 points, 8 rebounds and 18 assists.
It's meaningless to not bring victory with beautiful data.
If Chamberlain's legendary 100-point battle did not win, he believed that Lao Zhang would never take the 100-point photo that was passed down from generation to generation 1.
One person particularly couldn't understand that Booker's teammates took a group photo happily.
McGuinnessmin said in a blatant manner: "LeBron played very proactively on the offensive end, and even if the winner was decided, he did not stop. He took a solid step to defend the throne of the scoring king. New York lost, but their king did not lose. LeBron was great!"
Chapter completed!
