MTL - Basketball: Start with the Neuroknife-Chapter 212 Brother, are you...playing me?
Falling in love with you Kanshu, basketball: starting from the nerve knife
May 19.
The Western Conference Finals also kicked off.
Kevin Durant has really grown a lot, at least this time when facing Kobe, he is no longer beaten unilaterally. Instead, it is possible to communicate with Kobe.
In position 1, Westbrook was able to respond in a timely manner when facing Deron Williams.
In terms of interior configuration, Perkins and the "Little Shark" played a 50-50 split.
Facing the infinitely talented Yin Baka, Pau Gasol was slightly suppressed by his offensive performance. But on the defensive end, his performance is not as good as Yin Baka!
"18 cards" gradually secured the Thunder's starting position in the second half of the season, averaging 2.4 blocks per game, and this figure soared to 3.1 per game in the playoffs!
This is an exaggerated number, you know...
This season's "block king" Bogut averaged only 2.6 blocks per game!
There is no obvious strength or weakness in each position, and the Thunder has James Harden on the bench, so that at the end of the first half of the game, the two teams fought 54 to 50. The Lakers at home played weakly. advantage ahead.
This anxiety lasted until 5 minutes and 14 seconds into the fourth quarter. The Lakers suddenly changed their rhythm. Deron Williams and Paul Gasol played a pick-and-roll, and Kobe, who was looking for an open space, hit consecutive shots.
The point difference also widened at this time, 110 to 100, the Lakers beat the Thunder by 10 points and won the first victory in the series.
After the game, Kevin Durant was not depressed. The game was not decided until the last moment, and he himself was unilaterally killed by Kobe last season, and he was able to form a counterattack. These are all progress...
He believes that this round of the series will never end as quickly as last year...
Regarding this point, Kobe also has the same attitude. In this game, Kevin Durant scored 28 points and shot 45% from the field.
After another season of growth, now Kevin Durant has officially entered his prime...
The play here was hot, and in the second game of the Eastern Conference finals, the New York Knicks won another 20 points at their home court.
At the end of the first game, everyone was saying that if the New York Knicks' insiders can't stop doing whatever they want at the basket, it will be really difficult for the Heat to change the current situation.
Spoelstra obviously listened to these words. From the beginning of this game, the Heat have been staring at Yao under the basket. As long as he gets the ball, he will double-team without hesitation. A resolute.
The effect was okay at first, but after the New York Knicks became familiar with their defensive style, they immediately activated the outside shooters.
Ordinarily, on a stage like the playoffs, relying on three-pointers to win is very risky.
Later, the Rockets missed 22 consecutive three-pointers, which is a living example.
But the situation is different now...
First of all, the New York Knicks have a strong inside line.
The Heat have also shown that they value...
Secondly, the outside line of the New York Knicks has the league's top shooters, not one, but two!
A good shooter, a good shot space, equals...
15 three-pointers in the audience!
So many 3-pointers made in one game with a long time on the floor...
It's really an exaggeration.
For comparison, the Heat finished the game and scored 9 3-pointers...
On three-pointers alone, they lost 18 points!
Kenny Smith concluded after the game: "If I were Eric, I would definitely have a headache right now..."
Barkley said: "I might just hand in my resignation letter!"
If you defend the outside line, you will explode inside; if you defend the inside line, you will explode outside!
How does this make the head coach arrange tactics?
And think about all the things that have surrounded Spoelstra this season, piece by piece...
He really wants to announce that Spoelstra is the most difficult head coach this season!
Li Wan's data in this game was 25 points, 9 rebounds and 14 assists.
It can be seen from the number of assists why he didn't get double figures in rebounds this time.
These guys shot so well tonight!
Especially Ray Allen and Lewis.
The former finally hit 5 three-pointers tonight, 5 of 8 shots!
The latter hit 4 three-pointers and made 4 of 8 shots!
The number of three-pointers made by the two "Seattle Twins" accounted for almost two-thirds of the three-pointers made by the New York Knicks... It is also for this reason that Seattle fans can't help but miss the year.
In the 2004-05 season, the Sonics with the "Seattle Twins" as the core ranked third in the West. I thought it would be a hearty season.
As a result, they were eliminated in the second round, and the Suns also lost to the Spurs in the Western Conference Finals. For a while, the entire league was saying that shooting alone could not win the championship.
At that time, the people of Seattle really believed it. Now that the "Gemini" is shining in the New York Knicks, they just want to say one thing: It would be great if the Supersonics had Li Wan!
They were nostalgic for the past, and all members of the Heat boarded the return plane.
The cabin was lifeless, and the whole atmosphere was so solemn that it was like frost.
0-2 down is not the end of the world, but the probability of 0-2 down and finally winning the series is only 6%!
When LeBron James fell behind 0-2 throughout his career, the probability of a comeback was a bit higher, reaching 33.3%; Wade also had the experience of winning the entire series after falling behind 0-2.
But in the case of two consecutive "20 shots" in the series, this probability and experience may not be enough!
In the current situation, Tyronn Lue may only be invited here. Li Wan said that he is lucky. He is really not joking. The probability of winning the series is as high as 67%!
To say that Rivers is "a 3-1 lead and you can't take it lightly", then Tyronn Lue is "1-3 behind is a fart, don't panic, we can win!"
The Lakers and the Thunder also finished the second game of the series. The two teams that didn't decide the winner until the fourth quarter in the previous game, this time they didn't decide the winner until the last moment.
In the fourth quarter, Kevin Durant, who was 0 for 5 from the field, drank a glass of Gatorade after Brooks used up the last timeout. What, when he returned to the court, he hit consecutive three-pointers, including the "quasi lore" three-pointer in the last 2.3 seconds.
101 to 100.
The Thunder relied on Kevin Durant's "quasi lore" to take the victory away from the Lakers' home court with a 1-point lead.
Big score 1 to 1 tie!
Kobe's whole expression was obviously different when he was off the court.
Nowitzki: I'm familiar with this. He also had the same expression after my lore!
"Obviously, these are tough times, but there are a lot of times that are tougher than this one, and we got over it, and now we have to do the same thing, which is to keep getting over it, on our home ground, to bring it back. !"

Before the start of Game 3 of the Knicks-Heat series, Wade showed his role as a team leader in front of the media.
LeBron James, who was standing next to him, also followed up and said: "We need to play more aggressively! I believe that we will not fall so easily!"
Wade heard his words and turned to look at LeBron.
The "Flash" has always recognized this brother's strength. In the 2008 playoffs, the Heat and the Cavaliers fought six games. up.
He believes that as long as the two brothers show their normal strength, they will solve the current predicament, and they will return to New York with the series!
That's what Wade said, and that's what he did...
As soon as this game came up, he showed a strong momentum, attacking with the ball continuously, and 7 of the Heat's first 10 points came from him.
As the main defense against him, Li Wan felt a lot of pressure.
Even this year's "Best Defensive Team" can clearly feel four words when facing a super giant scorer like Wade:
Unlimited!
Wade, who was devoted to the offensive end, was still doing his best on the defensive end. Although he couldn't defend Li Wan, various supplementary defenses made it difficult for the New York Knicks' outside shooting team to open tonight.
Until 6 minutes and 15 seconds of the first quarter, the "Seattle Twins", which contributed a total of 9 three-pointers in the previous game, have not opened yet.
However, the result of investing in both offense and defense is...
His stamina is not enough!
Before 7 minutes, I was a little out of breath.
Seeing this, Spoelstra immediately changed his formation and replaced LeBron in front of Li Wan again.
Wade gave LeBron a high-five when he switched defenses:
You can do it, you must do it!
What he didn't notice was that LeBron James looked nervous.
He heard what Wade said in the interview with the reporter tonight, and he knew at that time that his buddy would definitely give 200% of his energy tonight.
Desperate to fight for the victory of this game.
But he really didn't expect that this guy's performance tonight would explode to such an extent!
At 7 minutes and 10 seconds of the first quarter, the Heat still lead by 1 point at home. This is inseparable from Wade's explosive performance. No, it should be said that this is entirely because of Wade's performance!
After all, except for him, everyone else is just playing normally.
including him...
This game is only 4 points so far!
Of course, this is due to the lack of timing for his shot, and it has a lot to do with his poor state tonight.
So far in this game, LeBron has taken 6 shots and only scored 4 points... Facing Artest's close entanglement, Li Wan's elusive assist defense interception, and Dayao's timely position blocking, LeBron Brown-James is even less tempered than in the 2007 Finals!
Right now, the offensive end is considered useless. With his good brother performing so well, he may be able to exert his strength...
Defensive!
Defensive...?
It's not that he can't do it!
He was the final "Defensive Team of the Season" this season, but while Wade was concentrating on the offensive end, he was assigned the task of defending.
The position in this team...
Although when the Cavaliers came to the Heat, LeBron James had already said to himself in his heart:
No matter what I do, what I have to do now is to win the championship as soon as possible. For the championship, even if I am a substitute, I will not hesitate!
But, how did Lu Xun say something?
Oh, by the way, until then, you won't know how sad you are!
LeBron James is going through that moment right now. He has called himself "King" since high school, and he must admit that this is hundreds of times worse than the worst situation he thinks!
I seem to... I am more suitable to be the protagonist!
This is because he is a little twisted, and he is also a little nervous.
While his offensive performance is not satisfactory, the defensive end has become the only way for him to redeem himself now. If he does not defend well...
In the rounds he played against Li Wan in the first two games, his defensive quality was not very good.
LeBron James can't think about it anymore.
Li Wan also held the ball for halftime at this time.
He greeted him immediately.
Facing LeBron who was switching defenses, Li Wan first observed it, then slowly dribbled the ball towards the three-point line.
LeBron James kept observing his left and right sides from the corner of his eye, preventing his opponent from sneaking up and giving him a "human wall".
Li Wan noticed this, and when LeBron James glanced to the side again, it was a "ball breakthrough". As soon as LeBron James realized it, Li Wan rushed past him.
Maybe Li Wan didn't expect it to be so easy, he was stunned for a moment, then moved sideways and then made a mid-range jumper, and hit it easily!
one step over...
Spoelstra was stunned, the Miami people at UU Reading www.uukanshu.com were stunned, and Wade was also stunned!
No, brother, you!
What are you defending against?
Wade's weird look didn't escape LeBron James' sidelight.
But LeBron also looked embarrassed at the moment.
Can only sing the same songs as Duncan, Kevin Garnett, Howard:
I can pretend not to see~
With this goal scored, the Knicks overtook the point difference.
Wade, who was eager to recover the point difference, was a little hard in the next shot. Li Wan's hand was already sealed in front of him, and he forced the shot, but Li Wan covered his head and face.
Still "grabbing a hat"!
The humiliated Wade complained impatiently to the referee, he didn't know what he was going to complain about, maybe he just wanted to divert the embarrassing scene in front of him.
Li Wan said that I understand!
That's what they do on the field!
Li Wan grabbed the ball and quickly launched a counterattack. The Heat's lineup was restrained by the Knicks in every aspect. In terms of mobility alone, there is really nothing to say.
When Li Wan arrived at the frontcourt, LeBron was already waiting with a serious face.
Li Wan looked at his serious appearance, and for some reason, suddenly thought of "Old Fish", so he approached more decisively, and made another fake move of "exploding the ball", breaking through from beside him.
Still one step ahead...
Wade watched the ball fly out of Li Wan's hands and fell into the basket steadily, and then looked at the background of his good brother. He really wanted to ask:
Dude, are you...playing me?
