Chapter 357 The strongest thigh(2/2)
"Dang!"
This time his shot went wide. Martin caught Chandler and grabbed the defensive rebound, and immediately threw the ball to James.
The Knicks started a fast break, but the Nets retreated quickly, and Wade's layup was interfered by Lin Ying.
But what no one expected was that Martin had already followed up to the frontcourt at this time, grabbed the offensive rebound and quickly scored a second tip-in!
The story of Martin's second stint with the Knicks is a twist.
Bogut was injured and the Knicks had to find a replacement after the Olympics.
But the number of people who could be found at that time was very limited, and old general Martin finally came into view.
However, due to his age, the Knicks only signed a ten-day short contract with him at first.
As a result, Martin played very tough at the beginning of the season and showed a second spring.
By the time he entered the second ten-day short contract, he had already squeezed out Aipai Udu and became the starting player.
His energy on both offense and defense has helped the Knicks a lot, and is also an important reason why the Knicks' record surpassed the Celtics.
2 to 5.
The Knicks' opening attitude and performance were completely different from last year's Christmas Day game.
Off camera, Rivers has been standing on the sidelines, pumping his fists and shouting as soon as he scored.
The Knicks' changes are obviously inseparable from this master of chicken soup.
Sloan also got up and went to the sidelines to signal the team's tactical adjustments.
Deron advanced to the frontcourt with the ball and began to play a duet with Lin Ying.
You have your plan, and I have my ladder.
However, even with the two-man team, the Knicks still resolutely implemented the strategy of flanking Lin Ying.
Even though Lin Ying is without the ball.
Rivers' strategy is absolutely insane.
Deron found the right opportunity and made a three-pointer from the outside.
"Whoa!"
The basketball passes through the net.
After scoring the goal, Deron raised his hands in the rifle gesture.
Brooklyn is also his home court!
There were cheers at the scene.
While Lin Ying was being flanked crazily, the performance of the rest of the Nets was quite impressive!
In the Knicks' offense, Wade received a pass from James on the wing, reached the penalty area and scored with a difficult backhand pull, which also caused a foul on Chandler's thug!
2+1!
This shot was very difficult. Wade staggered after landing, indicating that his knee still had a great impact on him, but his full mental state allowed him to overcome the impact of the injury.
Despite the noise from the scene, Wade added a steady hit from the free throw.
The state of the Knicks can no longer be described as good!
They are determined to win tonight!
The offense and defense switched, and Lin Ying finally found a chance when playing outside.
After catching the ball, he feinted a shot, turned around and made a three-pointer!
The shooting space of this ball is much larger than that of Wade's ball just now, but the difficulty is not low at all.
Of course, this kind of continuous shooting action is indispensable for being handsome.
"Whoa!"
The basketball hollow falls into the bag!
8 flat!
Explosive cheers rang out at the scene, and the fans all looked extremely excited.
Different from the one-sided situation last year, the two teams played extremely anxiously tonight, and the various difficult goals were comparable to a fight between gods.
Eight minutes into the first quarter, the score was 20 to 22, and both sides began to rotate.
For the Knicks, Landry and Ray Allen came on the court, replacing Martin and Richardson.
For the Nets, Butler and Brand come on, replacing Johnson and Yi Jianlian.
When the Nets attacked, Butler missed a shot from the outside.
He just came on as a substitute and usually needs time to find his feel.
"Whoa!"
But looking back, Ray Allen made a textbook three-pointer without the ball!
He doesn't have to adapt to Rivers' tactical system at all, and as the strongest three-point shooter currently, he can get into the state directly without warming up.
Deron's throw after the pick-and-roll was interfered by Landry and missed.
Looking back, Bosh's mid-range shot also missed the basket.
Because of physical fitness, basketball games usually start at the most accurate time. As the game progresses, the shooting percentage will also decline after physical fitness is exhausted.
The ball was a long rebound, and Landry fought hard to grab it.
“The Divine Bird” has always been the most motivated in the competition.
Lin Ying's help defense was in place quickly, and Landry gave the ball to James without a direct attack opportunity.
James didn't even turn his head and went straight to the sideline.
Over there, Ray Allen caught the ball and shot a three-pointer.
"Whoa!"
There was another crisp sound.
Ray Allen made two consecutive three-pointers!
As long as you give me a chance, it's up to me if I don't make the shot!
The score difference instantly came to 8 points!
The media and fans have discussed more than once the player best suited to partner James.
In this era, Ray Allen is the undisputed number one on the list.
After him, there is Durant who mainly played without the ball as a rookie.
After Ray Allen has passed his peak, he rarely attacks with the ball. He basically attacks without the ball and at fixed points. His running awareness and shot control are a perfect match for James.
If nothing else, the tying three-pointer in history that is said to have saved James' career was made by Ray Allen.
The consecutive three-pointers in this period are also a good example.
Sloan called a timeout.
After returning from the timeout, both sides began to enter a large-scale rotation.
Knicks: Norris Cole, Ray Allen, Fields, Landry, Udoh;
Nets: Billups, Iverson, Butler, Kirilenko, Brand
Iverson came up and ran a pick-and-roll with Brand, breaking into the paint and causing Udu to hit him.
Youdu is 2.08 meters tall and has an exaggerated wingspan of 2.28 meters. He is a monster with a wingspan.
But his defensive judgment is indeed not very good.
Iverson made one of two free throws. It was a pity that the second free throw went in and then came out.
Yudu protected the rebound and the Knicks played quickly.
Ray Allen received Cole's pass during the fast break, swung it and flew Butler for a three-pointer before taking a shot.
"Whoa!"
Come on!!
After he came up, he scored three three-pointers in a row!
What is a warm-up?!
21 to 31!
The score difference was instantly stretched to double digits!
The Knicks bench erupted, with James raising his hands in the air and looking domineering.
What are the strongest legs!
Chapter completed!
