Chapter 115 The Nuggets Gang!(2/3)
Anthony's extra free throw was a solid hit.
18 to 14!
The Nuggets launched a 12-2 counterattack!
They are gaining momentum!
James continued to be double-teamed with the ball in front.
I heard that you are very good at passing the ball, but you should pass it to see if your teammates can make the ball!
James:FXk!
He turned around and threw a three-pointer!
Historically, because James only aspired to win the championship after joining the Heat, many fans actually only watched him play at that time.
Because the inherent impression of him is that he is strong, bulldozer, unreasonable, breaking the brakes and leaving a shoe mark on the floor.
There is even a feeling that James only relies on his body to play.
But that’s just impression flow, and many media outlets also use it to spread rumors.
In fact, during the 1.0 period of the Cavaliers, James' style of play was still relatively elegant because he did not gain weight.
Especially after reaching the peak, his technical movements are very beautiful.
For example, the turn around and three-pointer in front of me seems to have the charm of Kobe.
And because he is strong enough, what he does seems much easier than Kobe.
The arc of the ball after it is released is also very beautiful.
"Whoa!"
Then, the ball went in!
The cheers at the scene suddenly stopped, and the Cavaliers bench was in an uproar.
In this era, there are no weaklings!
James's response was a three-pointer, so tough!
Earlier, Anthony scored 2+1, and the Nuggets went from falling behind to overtaking by 4 points. It was obvious that the Cavaliers' momentum was running out.
But James' three-pointer brought back the Cavaliers' morale all at once!
In fact, James himself was also very excited. After landing, he pouted and his eyes looked like he was going to kill someone.
With the transition between offense and defense, the Cavaliers' defensive enthusiasm surged.
They were originally a strong defensive team, but after this was brought up, the Nuggets couldn't find a chance.
Iverson was knocked down in his final attack, but the referee did not blow the whistle.
The Cavaliers launched a defensive counterattack, and James cooperated with Hughes on the fast break, and Carter made an iconic alley-oop tomahawk dunk across the way!
"Bang!"
Cavaliers, overtake again!
This dunk also made Karl stand up from the bench.
It's true that James is so strong.
And the fact is, with the current lineup of the Cavaliers, it is basically impossible for you to lead the team to the finals with anyone else.
The Nuggets' frontcourt offense still didn't have any good opportunities.
Lin Ying once again signaled Anthony to play in low singles.
But this time the Cavaliers attacked early and didn't want to give Anthony a chance to catch the ball in singles.
Seeing that this attack was about to fail again, but at this moment, a figure outside the tactics appeared.
When Anthony was in position, Smith, who was supposed to go to the corner to create space, was actually cutting to the basket!
If Anthony really started playing solo, he would probably be scolded.
Because this is to give him a double-team package!
But now, this is an opportunity!
Lin Ying saw the right moment and threw the ball directly over the basket!
The angle and timing of this ball throw are very good, but Smith seems to fly at a wrong angle...
Originally, the alley ball should be facing the basket, but when he cut in, he turned around and squeezed through the defense. When he jumped, he was facing the ball but with his back to the basket.
This alley-oop was a mistake!
No, wait!
For ordinary players, this ball would be a mistake, but for Smith... it's an opportunity!
After he got the ball in the air, he turned around and dunked 180° in the air.gif!
The fans were dumbfounded.
The teammates on the Nuggets bench reacted quickly and jumped up one by one.
Too cruel!
As expected of you, JR!
Lin Ying couldn't help but give Smith a thumbs up.
In fact, with Smith's ability, it would be easier to perform a back dunk with his back to the basket, but Smith's strong desire to perform directly escalates the difficulty.
The key is to be able to buckle it in!
The emotions of the fans at the scene exploded again.
Although Smith just wanted to perform, at this time point, when the morale of the Nuggets was relatively low, this dunk came up again!
"Defend! Defend!"
Amid the cheers of the fans, the Nuggets once again played great defense.
James' pass during the breakthrough was directly intercepted by Iverson!
Iverson quickly ran to the frontcourt in one line, and suddenly jumped up and dunked with both hands when facing the empty blue!
Because he's older, he basically doesn't dunk when he gets to the Nuggets.
But I couldn't help it this time, the mood was here!
This buckle adds fuel to the fire!
Denver Center is already buzzing with enthusiasm!
At this time, there was a short whistle on the sidelines, and the Cavaliers replaced Pavlovich and replaced him with Damon Jones.
Jones is exactly the opposite of Pavlovich. He is accurate in three-pointers and has a 41% shooting rate this season, but his defense is useless.
However, there is nothing Brown can do about this adjustment. The more Pavlovic fails to score, the more thorough the Nuggets double-team James.
James controlled the ball in the frontcourt again and couldn't help but take a deep breath.
He didn't know whether it was the air pressure on the plateau of Denver or the reaction of the fans at the scene that made him a little out of breath.
As expected, the Nuggets did not double-team him immediately. He faked a shot and continued to break through.
Lin Ying did not hesitate, and even started to fight a little early to prevent James from getting up to speed.
But James was indeed stronger than him. Although his speed was indeed not as fast as before, he still pushed him into the penalty area.
But because he couldn't pick up the speed, he could only choose to hit the board after a confrontation.
Lin Ying stretched out his long arms to interfere, and James was forced to raise his shooting point.
The ball almost passed Lin Ying's fingertips.
At this time, a monster suddenly jumped up behind Lin Ying.
It's Kenyon Martin again!
Although he had surgery on both knees, his lateral speed dropped a bit and his bounce dropped a bit.
But humans were originally at the level of perverts, and now they are at the level of beasts!
This time, it just looks like a volleyball-style hat.
"Bang!"
The ball was blown out of the field!
Pepsi Center can’t stop tonight!
It felt like the whole team was holding back their energy after losing to the Knicks in the last game, and then burst out together in the game against the Cavaliers!
James: Where's the promised warmth? You guys definitely did it on purpose!
But in fact, the next round is the real answer to this change.
