This round of finals between the Lakers and the New York Knicks really drove the crowd watching this round of finals to the point of going crazy.
In the history of the NBA, we have never seen such an ups and downs in the finals.
From G1 to G7 now, this roller coaster ride makes this half a month seem like a century.
After the New York Knicks led 3-0, who would have thought that the Lakers could catch up to 3-3?
The G6 referees have openly worn New York Knicks jerseys. Who would have thought that the Lakers would win in the end?
After G6, the Knicks had collapsed. Who would have thought that the New York Knicks' James substitute in G7 could actually lead the Lakers by 10 points at halftime, and even lead by 15 points?
This round of the series, whether it is New York fans or Los Angeles fans, if your heart is not strong enough, you will really get a heart attack!
At the end of the half, the New York Knicks ended the half with a 10-point lead with a score of 67 to 57.
Madison Square has completely transformed into a sea of joy for the New York Knicks.
In the last G6 game, the Lakers fell behind by more than 10 points many times, and finally came back. The Lakers in G6 can simply be called the essence of human comeback.
Therefore, the New York Knicks are only leading by 10 points, which seems like nothing.
But New York in G6 and G7 are completely different teams.
In the last game, the New York Knicks were able to lead by more than 10 points many times, all thanks to the New York Knicks' free throws and the support of the referees. In fact, the New York Knicks players were not in that good shape during the game.
Therefore, the New York Knicks in the last G6 game were not so stable.
But in this game, the New York Knicks' 67 points at halftime did not include many free throws. Most of them were players' sports scores.
The New York Knicks players were in very good shape in this game.
Especially Anthony, who scored 27 points in the half. This made many Anthony fans cry at the scene and in front of the TV.
In this finals, Anthony was definitely the most frustrated player among the major stars in New York.
Anthony needs the ball, but the ball is all in James's hands. In the previous six games, Anthony played like an average defensive shooter on the offensive end.
After James gave up the ball in this game, Anthony finally played like a superstar in the NBA and a player in the top three levels of the MVP rankings.
The New York Knicks are all set now, but the Lakers have a big problem.
In the first half, the Lakers used the team's core players very cautiously.
Of the Lakers' 57 points in the first half, 40 were scored by the Pacers.
You can say that the Pacers' four senior players performed well in the first half.
It can also be said that other Lakers players currently have serious physical problems.
This game is the Lakers' fourth tiebreaker in the playoffs and Game 28.
The Lakers have also become one of the few teams in NBA history to play all 28 playoff games.
With such a schedule, it is not easy for the Lakers to be able to withstand it until now.
But, in the end, I couldn't stand it anymore.
In the last game, the Lakers expended too much energy to defeat the impossible-to-beat New York.
“The Los Angeles Lakers are about to collapse right now!
This year's NBA championship still belongs to the New York Knicks!
Coach D will lose the first tiebreaker of his career and the first championship!
The New York Knicks will be crowned king tonight! "
During the halftime break, the New York Knicks Dj's shouting and Spike Lee's arrogance made many Lakers fans at the scene really nervous.
They were really frightened by the progress of this half.
They're here tonight to enjoy winning.
But who would have thought that what they would enjoy in the end when they came here would be a shock?
In this game, the New York Knicks' Frozen James' explosion really caught everyone's expectations.
The current trend of this game has made it difficult for everyone to predict.
The trend of this game has been completely confusing, so fans of the Lakers and Knicks are definitely the most nervous people in the world right now.
Relatively speaking, Lakers fans who were lagging behind were even more nervous.
Compared with the nervousness of the fans on both sides, the players and coaches of the two teams are also very nervous now.
This is the tiebreaker of the finals!
The game is still so exciting.
The score difference of ten points is not big or small.
Although most viewers feel that the New York Knicks have a great advantage.
The Lakers seemed to be exhausted and unable to exert any more force.
However, their opponent is Coach D!
If it was really an ordinary team, maybe they could indeed celebrate now!
But the opponent in this game was Coach D, so even if they led by 10 points at halftime, even if their opponent seemed to be physically exhausted, they still couldn't be proud.
However, do you want to say that Phil Jackson is satisfied with the team's performance in the first half?
That must be very satisfying.
James even played only 10 minutes in the first half, and the New York Knicks led by 10 points.
This allowed Phil Jackson to hide James in the first half, and when James arrived in the second half, he gave the Lakers a fatal blow at the critical moment.
"LeBron, I know you really, really want to perform in the game now, but what we need is not temporary glory, what we want is victory in this game, victory in this finals!
Congratulations, you successfully achieved the goals of me and the team in the first half. You gave us a 10-point lead at the end of the half. You even prevented the Lakers from seeing our full strength clearly. This is a great victory!
So, in the second half, LeBron, the team and I need your best efforts!
Whether it's scoring or rebounding or assists, steals or blocks, we need a King James who goes all out!
The second half of the game was the key to our defeat of the Lakers!
victory! !
champion! ! ! "
Phil Jackson was very satisfied with the team's performance in the first half. The New York Knicks scored 67 points in the first half, which exceeded his expectations.
In fact, the Lakers relied on the Pacers to score 40 points in the first half and 57 points in the half, which exceeded his expectations.
If it weren't for the team's wonderful performance in the first half, his plan would have failed, and he would have lost to Coach D again.
Coach D asked the Pacers' four veterans to start the game and let them be the team's main attackers in the first half. This move was indeed very powerful.
It’s really close!
If the offensive status of Anthony, Beasley and Wade was not so good in the first half, then he needs to expose James in advance.
If this is really the case, he will be very passive. With the strength of Coach D, the half-time break is enough to target James, who was exposed in advance.
And now, at halftime, James has not been exposed yet, so Coach D has no way to formulate targeted tactics and play styles for James.
At that time, the New York Knicks and James can give Coach D a big surprise.
Coach D's announcement of the starting lineup before the game really scared him. Originally, he thought Coach D had guessed his plan.
Actually no, it should be Coach D who realized that the main players in his team were exhausted.
The Pacers' four veterans are in excellent condition, so they come up with such a starting lineup.
"I hope Coach D won't be scared to tears by our surprise!"
Ha ha ha ha……
In the New York Knicks locker room, Phil Jackson even wanted to laugh in his heart.
In the Lakers' locker room, the atmosphere was also tense, but Du Kang also had a relaxed smile on his face.
Such a smile is very healing.
Just like Phil Jackson's smile is very healing for the New York Knicks, the same is true for the Lakers.
In fact, the smile on Du Kang's face made the players around the Lakers even more healing.
"If the coach hadn't started the four Pacers players in the first half, we would have lost this game!"
Nash is still scared now.
Based on Anthony's offensive state in the first half, even if the Lakers start this game with Yao Ming, Roy, Ebanks and McAway Antetokounmpo, it may be difficult to lead at halftime.
Spending so much, and ending up 50-50 with the Knicks at halftime, is definitely something the Lakers cannot accept.
It's better now. Although they are ten points behind, the Lakers' vitality has been preserved.
Now Yao Ming, Roy, Ebanks and McAway are very physically fit.
The outstanding performance of the Pacers' four veterans allowed the Lakers to control their own destiny in the second half.
This is an almost perfect adjustment!
"Coach, James' performance in the first half was very poor. He had no desire to attack at all. He just passed the ball there. Are you really sure that James... is our number one threat in the second half?"
This is Mayfair Jackson's psychological warfare.
Such psychological warfare is indeed beyond the capabilities of Nash, Hamm, and Clifford.
If it weren't for Du Kang's system, he would definitely have been fooled by Phil Jackson in this game.
Phil Jackson was the number one master of psychological warfare in the NBA before he came to the NBA.
Even Jordan and Kobe can learn a lot about psychological warfare from him.
If it weren't for systematic simulation, James' performance would be outstanding in every simulation. He probably wouldn't believe that James, who behaved like a dead dog in the first half, would suddenly go berserk in the second half.
The Lakers fell behind by up to 15 points in the first half, and were able to catch up to 10 points behind in the end. James' performance took the greatest credit.
It can only be said that Mayfair Jackson really made the investment.
It would be better to let the New York Knicks' lead be smaller than to let Du Kang and the Lakers be deceived.
It can only be said that Mayfair Jackson is indeed a famous coach, and a famous coach should be as good at gambling as Du Kang.
"James' performance in the first half of the game was just a smoke bomb. James has no magic weapon in this game, but he will burn himself out in the second half. Maybe James in the second half will be the real full-strength James!
Now we are 10 points behind, which is an acceptable lag, but if we can't control James, we won't be able to close the 10-point difference. In the end, we may be the losing team!
Anthony's offense is unstable, and Wade's health is also a problem. Beasley, like Anthony, has unstable upper and lower limits of offense. The most stable offensive players in the entire New York Knicks are Howard and James.
Howard does not have the ability to attack independently, so James is the key.
In the second half, if you can't guard James, don't feel any mental burden. I won't let the Lakers double-team any New York Knicks player in the second half.
In the second half, I hope the final winner is the bravest team!
Ron, Stephen, Devin, Brandon, Michael, and Yao, be ready to strangle James and the New York Knicks in the second half! "
Facing the sudden attack of Phil Jackson in the second half, Du Kang was most worried about the panic among the players on the field.
After all, this is the tiebreaker of the finals.
Anyone would get nervous more easily in such situations.
The same is true for himself.
Now he is very nervous.
Tactics are tactics, strategies are strategies, no one knows whether they can be executed in the end.
but!
Du Kang knows that the Lakers must not lose this game, and he must not lose either!
"Coach, if the team needs us, please don't be polite to us!"
Oden and Olajuwon will not be able to play in this game.
But Kobe and Maizi feel that they can still do it, and there is no problem in barely playing a few key rounds.
Faced with such statements from Kezi and Maizi, what can Du Kang do?
Just be moved and that’s it!
The halftime break ended and the second half of the tiebreaker between the Lakers and the New York Knicks continued.
The New York Knicks changed their starting lineup in the second half.
Howard, James, Anthony, Wade, Beasley.
The Lakers also changed their starting lineup.
Yao Ming, Artest, Ebanks, Roy, McAway.
The Lakers and New York Knicks both changed their starting lineups in the second half of the game, which surprised the fans and commentators at the scene.
"I can guess that the Lakers will change their starting lineup in the second half. The four Pacers performed very well in the first half, but no matter how good their performance is, they can't get the score back. If the Lakers want to win, even if Coach D knows his main strength If there is a problem, he has to go to them, and even let his main players play the entire second half, but the New York Knicks..."
"LeBron James and Dwight Howard are on the court at the same time. Is this really good? Aren't the New York Knicks afraid of another internal conflict between James and Howard? Especially now that the New York Knicks are in a good situation, James and Howard can compete for FMVP. ”
"James grabbing the Finals MVP is not good for the Knicks. James didn't win the Finals MVP and completely collapsed. He just gave up the game like he did in the first half. It's also not good for the New York Knicks. If it weren't for James in the first half, the New York Knicks would have even led by 15 points. above."
"I have no idea what Phil Jackson's arrangement in the second half meant. Their starting lineup in the first half was very good."
Seeing that James, who had been abandoned in the first half, started directly in the third quarter, everyone who paid attention to this game was exclaiming.
Mayfair Jackson enjoyed these people's exclamations very much.
This shows that his arrangements and tactics deceived the entire world.
In fact, compared to the shock and exclamation of these ordinary spectators, Mayfair Jackson actually wanted to get the exclamation of Coach D next to him.
"Coach D, this game is over. Being behind by 10 points in this game will be the closest you are to the New York Knicks. The New York Knicks will get bigger and bigger, and will eventually completely defeat the Lakers!
Coach D, you have never thought about who killed you in the end, have you? "
On the court, the second half of the game between the Lakers and the New York Knicks has begun.
And Mayfair Jackson had been holding it in for so long, and finally couldn't hold it in anymore.
After leading 3-0, Phil Jackson felt that his life was about to be destroyed.
So many questions, so much ridicule, and so much contempt made Phil Jackson feel like he was going crazy.
So far in this finals, the person who is under the greatest pressure, apart from James, is him.
If James loses in this finals, James will be beyond redemption, and he will also be beyond redemption.
There was so much pressure, and because he kept losing, it was impossible for him to vent it.
Not to mention venting, even after the last game, he did not dare to appear at the post-game press conference.
How frustrating this is.
It can be said that he has been frustrated for a very, very long time after taking a 3-0 lead.
Now that the halftime break is over, even if Coach D knows that James is not dead in this game, not only is James not dead, but he is also his deadly weapon, then Coach D has no time to deploy targeted tactics.
Therefore, Mayfair Jackson stopped pretending, showed his cards, and wanted to show off his face in front of Coach D.
After saying these words, Mayfair Jackson wanted to see some surprise and shock on Du Kang's face.
But what makes Mayfair Jackson very incredible is that Du Kang didn't say anything after hearing what he said.
There was still almost the same smile on his face.
Du Kang's performance stunned Mayfair Jackson for a moment.
Coach D, didn’t you hear what I was saying clearly?
Do you want me to repeat that?
Obviously, it is impossible for Coach D not to hear clearly what he said. Obviously, Coach D must be speaking harshly. He knew that he had been deceived, so he pretended not to hear it at all.
After thinking about this, Mayfair Jackson also had a smile on his face.
Wait a minute and let me see how hard you talk!
On the court, the Lakers took the lead in the third quarter.
Du Kang said, be careful about James in the second half of this game.
Lakers players will definitely listen to what Du Kang said.
But James collapsed in the first half, and it was impossible for the Lakers not to play.
In the first half, the Lakers stared at James and chased the 15-point deficit to 10 points in the end.
Therefore, even if Du Kang said to be careful about James in the second half, the Lakers still have to test James out.
The player who takes on the task of testing James is, of course, McAway.
McAway has excellent athletic ability and explosive speed. This style of play is the most suitable for testing.
If James is really broken, McAway can definitely kill James!
McAway and Artest set up a pick-and-roll and singled out James.
Looking at James in front of him, McAway pulled away and suddenly broke through in a straight line to the right, successfully passing James.
McAway was surprised to see James being passed over so easily.
Didn't the coach say that James would regain his fighting strength in the second half?
Could it be that the coach’s prediction was wrong?
No!
It’s definitely not the coach’s misjudgment!
The coach is a god!
You will never make a mistake in prediction!
James is playing me!
McAway, who broke through James, did not become careless because he broke through James. Instead, he always carefully focused part of his attention on James.
Any Lakers player who wants to attack at the basket after breaking through James needs to face Howard's defense.
McAway is no exception.
With James following next to him, and Howard assisting in defense in front of him, it is certainly impossible for McAway to attack on his own.
His purpose was to test James out.
As soon as the test comes out, he will pass the ball!
Therefore, at a certain distance from Howard, McAway suddenly took off and prepared to throw!
If James really collapsed, he would definitely not be able to keep up with his own reaction!
At that time, you can change the throw into a pass, which is very simple.
Yao has already connected from beyond the three-point line.
After McAway jumped up, his peripheral vision was always on James.
After seeing him jump up suddenly, James jumped up too.
And it’s very fast!
Obviously, James did not collapse!
It is absolutely impossible for a player with a broken mentality to have such a reaction ability!
McAway saw it!
The Lakers players on the court also saw it!
Even the spectators, fans and commentators on the sidelines saw it all!
James's sudden jump really shocked everyone.
This is definitely not the game state that James showed in the first half!
So, what is going on with James?
"Could it be?!"
At this time, many people have an answer in their minds.
Now it's up to the showdown between McAway and James in this round.
After testing out that James was indeed faking, McAway was ready to pass the ball in the air.
Throwing at this distance is still too difficult for him.
only!
After McAway suddenly passed the basketball in his hand from behind, all the fans in Madison Square gasped!
McAway's pass from behind was directly intercepted by James in the air!
Although McAway didn't jump that high.
But such a fake shot, a true pass or a back pass, is definitely very difficult to intercept.
This requires a strong concentration, which is not enough. It requires a strong talent and a strong defensive attitude.
Of course, James' talent is indescribable.
But James' defensive attention and defensive attitude, will he put so much energy on the defensive end?
Therefore, McAway never thought that his pass would be intercepted by James.
It wasn't just McAway who didn't think of it.
The entire Lakers team didn’t expect it!
Therefore, after James intercepted McAway's pass in the air, he did not fall from the air, but threw the basketball in his hand directly into the frontcourt!
The moment James passed the ball, Anthony, Wade and Beasley had already rushed out.
When it comes to fast break speed, Anthony, Wade and Beasley are not slow, but they are not fast.
But James's aerial interception was indeed an accident.
In the end, although Ebanks, Roy, and Artest all chased back, Anthony was still allowed to complete a fast break dunk under the basket.
69 to 57!
At the beginning of the third quarter, the New York Knicks once again took the lead.
Seeing the Lakers' offense and the Knicks' defense speeding up the attack, even a fool knows that James who looked dead in the first half was just faking it!
"This is Phil Jackson's conspiracy! Coach D predicted that James would collapse in this game. Phil Jackson predicted Coach D's prediction and deliberately made James act like a player after a collapse in the first half! !!”
In the TNT commentary box, O'Neal was shocked!
Not only O'Neal was shocked, but Barkley and Kenny Smith next to him were also shocked.
"Does this finals have to be so exciting and brain-burning!!!!"
You predicted my prediction, I predicted your prediction!
"Oh my god! Facing Coach D and Phil Jackson, I feel that if their opponent's head coach were me, I might not last until the fifth game!!! These two head coaches are too strong!"
Before the start of this game, Coach D predicted that James of the New York Knicks would collapse. In addition, several of his own team's main players had physical problems, so he used the four veterans of the Pacers to start. This is indeed strong, and it allows With his main players rested, he can humiliate the New York Knicks again.
So everyone really worships Coach D.
I think Coach D is simply amazing.
turn out to be!
Coach D is not a real god!
The real God is Phil Jackson!
Since Coach D has predicted that my James will collapse, I will really let James collapse for you in the first half, and then give you a surprise attack in the second half of the game!
This is indeed very sudden!
On the court, the Lakers continued to attack.
This time it was Roy's turn to attack.
In this offense, Roy and Yao Ming cooperated.
Now that it has been proven that James is indeed faking, there is no need to attack James again.
Yao Ming organized, Roy and Yao Ming cooperated. After the two picked and rolled, Roy separated. After Yao Ming helped Roy block Wade, James quickly changed defense.
Roy is well aware of James' ability to defend without the ball.
Not that strong.
So after cooperating with Yao Ming, Roy bounced away and quickly prepared to catch the ball and attack.
Yao Ming's pass was very timely.
Roy wasted almost no time.
After receiving Yao Ming's pass, Roy pressed into the three-point line, preparing for a mid-range pull-up jumper.
Roy is more accustomed to mid-range shots than jump shots from beyond the three-point line.
But this time, when Roy jumped up!
"Brandon!!!"
What? !
Roy, who was flying in the air, was stunned for a moment.
Could it be? !
Roy is also really smart.
After hearing McAway's shout, he immediately changed from shooting to passing, quickly took the basketball back, and then threw the basketball in his hand to Yao Ming outside.
At this time, in the air, James flew over from behind him!
That figure!
If he really chooses to shoot this time, it will definitely be another shot!
so!
James actually followed him just now! ! !
How can James' ability to move without the ball keep up with mine? !
Roy was shocked!
He has never seen James like this!
Ross, who was in front of the TV, was also very nervous at this time.
He has seen James like this!
James has a lot of very intelligent things.
A smart groin that many fans laughed at.
His ability off the ball is also very smart.
When fighting for the ball with his teammates, James' ability without the ball is reduced to standing still with his hands on his hips.
James like this forces his teammates and the team not to let him play without the ball, but to let him hold the ball.
However, at some point, James will suddenly have the ability to play without the ball like a small universe exploding.
And he was the victim of that smart James back then.
He was so fast that he couldn't pass James in singles with the ball. In the end, his shot in front of James was blocked and interfered with.
In the end, he gave up holding the ball and chose to run without the ball.
But even without the ball, he still couldn't get rid of James, and he had various one-twos with his teammates. But in the end, his teammates couldn't even pass the ball to him, and James intercepted it in the middle.
When he won the MVP against the Heat's Big Three, he never thought it would be so difficult for him to beat James. Because he stole James' MVP, James targeted him like crazy.
The Big Three beat Derrick violently. In fact, James beat him the most among the Big Three.
In that series, he saw James, the strongest defensive player.
In order to beat him violently, James focused all his energy on the defensive end, off-ball defense, on-ball defense, everything, even top-notch, allowing him to average a 35% shooting rate per game in this series.
This kind of James suddenly lost his power when playing against the Mavericks in the Finals. He no longer had the ability to defend without the ball, nor could he defend with the ball.
The intelligence shocked him.
Watching James on TV, Rose recalled the story from three years ago.
"That James is back!"
After Roy fell from the air, he moved without the ball again.
When Yao Ming faced Wade's defensive defense, his peripheral vision was always on Roy's side.
Seeing Roy getting rid of James' defense without the ball, Yao Ming wanted to...
"Don't pass the ball, James did it on purpose!"
Ross was so excited in front of the TV that he wished his voice could reach the scene.
This picture reminded him of the ball Kurt Thomas passed to him back then!
He thought he got rid of James without the ball. In fact, James deliberately got stuck in the passing route between him and Kurt Thomas!
Just when Rose was worried about the Lakers and Yao Ming.
On the court, Yao Ming didn't pass the ball!
Yao Ming faked a pass, and sure enough, James fell for the trick and reached out!
Seeing James suddenly reaching out, Roy was shocked.
He thought he got rid of James, but in fact, it was James' conspiracy! ! !
"OMG!!!"
"too strong!!!"
"James' defense is strong! Yao Ming's passing and basketball intelligence are even better!!!!"
After receiving Yao Ming's pass, Roy accelerated and broke through James.
But Roy, who was covered by James, had no chance to attack. If he continued to go inside, it would be a dead end.
He should have taken action directly after receiving Yao's pass just now.
But just now he was indeed made cautious by James' defense.
James is right in front, so people will subconsciously choose to overtake James.
In the end, Roy could only throw the basketball back to Yao Ming outside the three-point line.
Yao Ming's height makes him the Lakers' first receiver.
After receiving Roy's return pass, Yao Ming, who was no longer able to organize an offense, threw the basketball in his hand against Wade.
A swipe!
Three point hit!
69 to 60!
The Lakers chased the score to 9 points!
This is a magic ball!
There is no doubt that this is a magic ball!
Even the Lakers fans at the scene didn't think Yao Ming could hit such a magic ball all the time.
In particular, Yao Ming was obviously too tired from the last game. If Yao Ming still had so much energy in this game, Coach D would not let the Pacers' four veterans start, nor would he let Yao Ming play 12 games in the first half. minute.
Yao Ming's offense is difficult to sustain.
Such a super giant ball is indeed the best way to solve the problem.
But it really doesn't last.
But James' defense really blocked the Lakers' offense!
This opening of the second half was definitely the most desperate thing for the Lakers fans at the scene and the Lakers viewers in front of the TV!
Yao Ming's magic ball amazed the three commentators of TNT.
James' defense in these two rounds really made the three commentators in the TNT commentary box crazy.
"I have never seen such a strong defensive James on the stage of the Finals!!!"
"I've seen James like this in the Eastern Conference Finals, I've seen James like this in the Eastern Conference Semifinals, and I've never seen James like this in the Finals!"
Why is there no James who puts all his energy on the defensive end in the finals?
Why does James' James always clash with his opponent's offense? Even if the team loses, they don't focus on the defensive end?
This is a very heartbreaking question.
But this time, James actually focused all his energy on the defensive end on the stage of the finals! !
“This is incredible!!!”
With James like this, coupled with Howard going all out, the New York Knicks' defense is really too strong! ! !
With such a strong defense, the New York Knicks will make the Lakers' current deficit seem extremely huge, even as huge as a chasm!
On the court, the New York Knicks attack.
James received a pass from Wade at the top of the arc.
This time James didn't choose to stick the ball crazy.
After receiving the ball, James called for Anthony to pick and roll.
In front of Anthony is Artest, and in front of James is Ebanks.
This kind of pick-and-roll actually made a lonely pick-and-roll.
Fans feel that such a pick-and-roll is blocking a lonely person. Why does James want to pick-and-roll like this?
After James handed the basketball to Anthony, he actually didn't have the ball! ! ! !
James is not sucking Anthony's blood this time!
Instead, he suddenly made an air cut without the ball!
Ebanks might be able to catch up with James's sudden acceleration and burst of air-cutting. Artest was indeed a little difficult to catch up with, and he didn't expect James to do this. In the end, James actually cut to the basket!
James, who cut to the basket, received Anthony's pass and jumped up!
Yao Ming saw that James was trying to entice him to jump up and then pass the ball to Howard.
But, can Yao Ming not jump up?
You can still stop jumping.
Yao Ming took a step forward without taking off, and James did not pass the ball immediately.
After giving Howard a look and seeing that Howard had jumped up, James passed the basketball in his hand.
James didn't give Yao Ming a chance to turn around and defend Howard.
Howard received the ball in the air and faced Artest's defense. He directly rode Artest and dunked the basketball in his hand!
Bang!
71 to 60!
The Lakers' deficit was once again stretched to more than 10 points!
Howard fell from the sky and beat his chest crazily.
Howard thought the dunk he just performed on Artest was extremely cool.
He really didn't expect that James would pass such a good pass for him!
Farke!
Only in this game can I feel safe playing Pippen!
Damn it, you've been playing Pippen for me a long time ago, why the hell do we need to play Game 7 with the Lakers now? !
Although in his heart Howard was complaining about James crazily, on the surface, Howard was still very happy and high-fived James.
James can give up statistics, go all out on defense and organization, and let him be Pippen, which is worthy of encouragement!
"LeBron, I have long said that you can become a better player than Pippen, and I will become a better player than Jordan, hahahaha!"
Howard was laughing maniacally while high-fiving James.
This laughter was so harsh in James' ears that Wade next to him wanted to kick him!
but!
"We need to win this game!"
"Our victory in this game requires the contribution of Howard on both the defensive and offensive ends!"
As the New York Knicks once again opened the score difference in this game to more than 10 points, the New York Knicks fans at the scene were really excited.
The most excited one is definitely Mayfair Jackson!
"Coach D, did you see that? I said, you don't have any chance in this game!!!"
"From now on, the victory in this game belongs only to the New York Knicks. Now, you are facing the strongest and most united New York Knicks!"
This New York Knicks unity may be forced.
However, even if it is forced unity, it is the most united New York Knicks!
Facing the New York Knicks, the Lakers need to score.
But at this time on the court, the Lakers' offense was almost blocked by James and Howard.
Yao Ming did not play the main offense, but was always organizing his teammates to attack.
But the defensive range of James and Howard is too large.
Although Beasley and Anthony are not good at defensive ability, they are very tall and fast. They are not good at defense, but they are good at interfering with shots. As long as there is a little interference, James and Howard can help defend.
"That's the Lakers, that is, Yao Ming, Roy, Artest. If it were any other team, I'm afraid it would be difficult to score!"
On the court, the New York Knicks' advantage is very obvious.
The New York Knicks have been trying to open the point difference to more than 10 points.
But every time the New York Knicks' point difference is stretched to more than 10 points, there will always be someone on the court who suddenly stands up.
"Coach D lets Yao play in singles again!!!!"
On the court, facing Wade's defense change, Yao Ming looked at Du Kang on the sidelines and treated Wade like air. He turned around and passed Wade cleanly, then suddenly stepped back to the three-point line and put his hand The basketball was thrown out.
Seeing a big center making such an action in the face of Wade's defense, the entire Madison Square Garden was stunned.
A swipe!
Three point hit!
"Coach D really dares to let Yao play like this, and Yao really dares to play like this!"
This is Wade!
What should I do if I really get robbed?
"Mayfair Jackson and Coach D are too strong!"
"This is the first time I saw Coach D lose his strategy!"
"This is the battle of the strongest head coaches in NBA history!!!"
"Phil Jackson won the strategy, but Coach D is micromanaging the tactics!"
Phil Jackson was amazing in this game!
But Coach D still did not fail!
The game is getting more and more suffocating!
"Lakers fans may not be able to breathe at this time!"
