Chapter 383 Fouled, they fouled!
Tyronn Lue made changes to LeBron James' arrangement.
Tonight's "little emperor" was focused on rushing inside, so Tyronn Lue put Carmelo Anthony in front of LeBron James, using Anthony's tonnage and strength to fight against LeBron James' tonnage, At the same time, let Wiggins use his mobility to supplement the defense and perform a second blockade.
Using the advantages of the two strikers to fight LeBron, it can be seen that Tyronn Lue is afraid of LeBron James.
Speaking of which, no matter how much some players criticize, it is the kind of player who knows that he has huge problems, but you will not deny his ability because of his problems.
Just like Chris Paul...
When a team is disappointed in him, there is always another team to "take over"... Even if the huge problems of that team make them have only so many choices, but being chosen is being chosen.
This is a testament to his ability.
He is such a player, and LeBron James is also such a player.
Tyronn Lue's various targets proved LeBron James' ability.
His form tonight is really good enough.
How good is it?
Let's just say...
Just raise your hand from outside the three-point line, it’s okay to just score a three-pointer. LeBron James’s state is abnormal tonight. It’s obviously an empty catch, but the ball got into the basket in a daze. .
Iguodala, who had already jumped high, was completely dumbfounded by him.
Immediately gave a thumbs up...
This ball also boosted the morale of the entire Warriors team. From their point of view, this is a signal that the "Goddess of Victory" and "Goddess of Luck" are planning to stand by their side tonight!
After the first quarter, LeBron James has scored 18 points, and the Warriors have scored 37 points. This is the most aggressive first quarter for the Warriors since the finals.
The Columbus Explorers failed to defend them, but they were in pretty good shape. They also "worked hard" and finally scored 34 points, falling behind the Warriors by 3 points.
At the end of the first quarter, it was LeBron James who was interviewed as the representative of the Warriors.
The tone of the female reporter was excited: "LeBron, you played a very brilliant first quarter tonight. This state looks great. You can share with us how you adjusted your state, because you played in the last quarter. Did you expect to have such a good first quarter tonight?"
Because it took a long time for the female reporter to ask questions, LeBron, with his hips on his hips, said immediately after she finished speaking: "If you know what kind of emotions I am playing with, you may It won't surprise me why I can play like this, just like this, I have to continue to put in this game, the battle tonight has just begun!"
After speaking, he immediately returned to the team.
The state of the entire Warriors team got better and better in the second quarter, and Steve Kerr believed that the rhythm point that belonged to the Warriors finally came.
Fortunately, it's not too late...
After winning this game, the Warriors can rewrite the big score to 2 to 1!
If it's not 3-0, then there is still a chance.
He looked at LeBron James with a little more satisfaction. He had been looking forward to what LeBron James could do. At this point in the game, he finally did it!
The game continues for the rest of the time...
LeBron James has obviously recovered his form, but Carmelo Anthony on the opposite side watched his defensive LeBron James continue to perform, and suddenly became full of energy.
In 09, "Western Cameron" returned for a limited time.
Two people "you come and I go" on the field, fighting fiercely.
Looking at the offense and defense of the two of them, the thoughts of some older reporters on the sidelines returned to March 02 at this moment, when LeBron James was a senior in high school and Carmelo Anthony was a senior in high school. A regular season allowed them to win the title of "Peerless Twins", but at that time, I am afraid that no one thought that these two "Heaven's Proud Sons" would have such a bad fate.
At this stage of his career, he still hasn't won a championship trophy.
It was even more unexpected that the first championship of their careers would be obtained from each other...
Fine!
Let's just give an explanation for the "conflict of old enemies" for so many years.
Carmelo Anthony is really trying hard.
And although his physical fitness is not as good as when he was young, and there is still a slight gap between him and LeBron James now, but...
Victory is desperate!
When a person is working hard on the field, God will make some blessings.
At 8 minutes and 14 seconds of the second quarter, LeBron James' layup was actually blocked by Carmelo Anthony.
The ball was shot off, and after the two hit the ground, they rushed towards the basketball together.
The pair of "Banana Boat Brothers" had only one sentence left in their hearts at this moment:
Sorry, Anthony Sand (LeBron Sand), this is the closest I get to a championship, I can't miss it!
In "Flipping Back", LeBron James grabbed the ball first, but before he could hold the ball towards his hands, a pair of big hands had already grabbed him who was on the ground.
Lying down, LeBron James actually insisted on "fighting" with these big hands for a second without exerting his strength very well, and was almost dragged directly.
This terrible grip scared the owner of the big hand, that is, Li Wan. However, he immediately twisted his body to dodge the ball and completed the steal. After that, he made a fast break and completed the "one-stop layup" .
LeBron, who was lying on the ground, "rolled" in various ways. Seeing that the referee ignored him, he immediately got up and spread his hands towards the referee, wanting to explain:
Isn't this ball for us to scramble for?
The referee ignored him, because the referee on the other side had signaled that Li Wan's layup was valid.
Moreover, although Li Wan and him had a strength confrontation, LeBron James did not completely hug the ball, and in just a second, the ball was taken away by Li Wan, and it looked as if it had been stolen. .
With LeBron James falling to the ground, there was nothing wrong with Li Wan's steal.
That's not a good position to protect the ball.
It’s not without reason that LeBron James is so excited, though, because…
After the ball was scored by Li Wan, his personal score reached 27 points in the half, surpassing LeBron James with 24 points in the half. In addition, the Columbus Explorers also overtook the lead by 1 point and became the leading team. .
What, you said how could LeBron James be so clear about the data of both the enemy and us?
Then you underestimate LeBron James' sensitivity to numbers.
Steve Kerr hurriedly called a timeout.
He turned to LeBron James and said: "Man, I can give you 100 points in everything you have done so far tonight, but next, I don't believe in your state tonight, but I think you need to rest It’s been a while, and in the future, I hope you pass the ball more, let your teammates share the pressure for you, and let them change the current defensive arrangement first.”
Steve Kerr is embarrassed to say that the Columbus Explorers have been very successful in targeting LeBron James during this period. He is afraid of hitting LeBron James' enthusiasm. Without his enthusiasm tonight, the Warriors cannot go all the way It was only at this time in the second quarter that the lead was overtaken by 1 point.
But sometimes, if you don't say it directly, some people just don't understand.
Moreover, LeBron James tonight has great ambitions in his heart. He not only wants to win this game, but also wants to surpass Li Wan in terms of presence.
But now, Li Wan's score has surpassed him unknowingly, can he swallow this breath?
Of course, continue to strengthen personal offense!
However, LeBron James has a basketball IQ, or basketball intelligence. What Steve Kerr didn’t tell him at the moment, in the next few rounds, LeBron James himself will understand up.
With his fiery and miraculous decline in the first quarter, and Tyronn Lue's defensive changes to him, his efficiency during this period was not very high. This is the key to the Warriors being overtaken during this period .
After discovering this, LeBron James' character traits of "a man who knows the current affairs is a hero" immediately showed up, actively changed his style of play, and began to create opportunities for his teammates.
In tonight's game, apart from LeBron James playing very well, the rest of the Warriors also played very well, especially the "Splash Brothers". Before the first half was over, they had already made 8 shots together. Three-pointer!
Everyone scored 4 three-pointers, which is extremely efficient!
Otherwise, relying on LeBron James' scoring alone, how could it be possible to lead the Columbus Explorers all the way.
You know, Li Wan has been scoring all the time, and the law that the Columbus Explorers have become more and more vigorous since they played in the finals is still in effect... This game is not just Wiggins and Cameron -Anthony played more steadily and prominently. Even Adams performed very well. The feeling of looking for opportunities at the basket is very good. At the end of the first half, he has scored 10 points, 6 open shots, and grasped 5 of them.
Steve Kerr was a pain in the ass.
It's really "once you hit the Warriors," right?
The two sides went all the way to a stalemate until the end of the first half.
The last 1 minute can be described as exciting.
Stephen Curry made a super long three-pointer, helping the team overtake by 2 points, leaving only 1.3 seconds for the Columbus Explorers. Before the celebration was over, Carmelo Anthony went straight to the backcourt with a "skyhook" , The ball hit the backboard and bounced straight into the basket.
in!
67 is better than 66!
The Columbus Explorers still took the lead into the second half with a 1-point advantage.
For the Columbus Explorers, Li Wan scored 31 points, 7 rebounds and 3 assists in the halftime.
Throughout the first half, the Warriors' offense was extremely ferocious, but the Columbus Explorers were able to hold on to the score, and even the biggest reason for the overtake in the end was that Li Wan kept scoring.
In the first half, Tyronn Lu knew that Li Wan had a heavy scoring task tonight, so he hardly arranged any defensive tasks. Except for the matchup, Li Wan devoted all his energy to the offense.
This arrangement was naturally seen through by Steve Kerr during the intermission.
Determined that Li Wan will devote himself to the offensive end tonight, he simply gave it a go, using offense to drive defense, and he could force the Columbus Explorers ball into Li Wan's hands, forcing him to solve the problem.
The core players of the Warriors tonight, including LeBron James and "Splash", all have a good scoring momentum. The combined scoring average of these three players is nearly 75 points!
Steve Kerr really couldn't believe it. With the three of them at full firepower, they could still beat Li Wan...even if they couldn't usually beat him, but now that Li Wan had already beaten him for the entire game Now, he doesn't believe that at the critical moment, three people can't do it alone!
On Tyronn Lu's side, he was keenly aware of Steve Kerr's thoughts, but he didn't interfere with Li Wan's style of play at the moment, but said to Li Wan during the official timeout: "I have a total of There are 5 timeouts, I will keep them all, you decide when to use them! These are all used to give you a breath of relief!"
Obviously, he intends to use Li Wan's offense to compete with the opponent, to see whether the Warriors' "Three Shots" are more ferocious, or Li Wan can fight better!
Moreover, as far as the current situation is concerned, if the Warriors continue to lose one game, it will be an "abyss" with a big score of 3-0. This is actually the decisive battle...
What more to say!
The fight is "King Fried"!
It should be said that the "smell of gunpowder" on both sides has indeed become stronger and stronger as the game progresses.
Coupled with the loss of time, the scores of the two sides continued to take the lead alternately, challenging the brain nerves of both sides every time.
Everyone tensed a string.
Including the TNT studio, which has always been in a humorous commentary style, everyone is also focusing on the game at the moment.
Before the start of this game, they really didn't expect this game to be so anxious.
Because of the performance of LeBron James in the last game, as well as the situation of the entire Warriors, the third game of the finals was a game in which Columbus pushed the Warriors into the abyss with all their efforts.
Barkley even prepared a few cold jokes so that the game would not be boring.
But what I didn't expect was that LeBron James could bottom out and rebound in this game, and the entire Warriors could perform so well.
but……
"This is the finals!"
"Finally, it feels like the finals!"
"Seriously, as a team with 70 wins in the regular season, the Warriors should be the way they played!"
On the online live broadcast platform, countless fans shouted "happy", in their view, this game is a real finals-level game.
It's long overdue, but to be honest, it's really cool to watch!
As the nerves became more and more tense and the fatigue increased, the two sides entered the stage of "strike the iron".
At 9 minutes and 35 seconds of the fourth quarter, LeBron James rushed inside and scored two key points. This was the first two points scored by the Warriors in the past 3 minutes. Closed the point difference to 1 point.
The most important thing is to break the "scoring drought"!
Ok……
The Columbus Explorers continued their "scoring drought".
Li Wan completed a mid-range shot before 1 minute and 34 seconds, and after widening the point difference to 3 points, Columbus did not score in the following time.
This goal gave the Warriors hope of winning, and everyone began to grit their teeth and defend.
Under their pressure, the entire ball movement of the Columbus Explorers even appeared a little unsmooth.
It can be seen how desperate the Warriors are.
Seeing this, Li Wan caught the ball forcefully and rushed towards the basket.
He has been racing for a whole game, and "Iron Man" will be tired, of course he will be tired, so this ball shows that his overall breakthrough speed has slowed down significantly.
But just when the Warriors wanted to close the door before the "reasonable collision zone", Li Wan made a jump shot on the right side of the free throw line.
At this time, the sharpest weapon must be the middle distance!
Li Wan took out the "God" weapon of the previous generation, and Klay Thompson rushed over. There was an obvious collision with Li Wan in the air, but the referee did not blow the whistle.
However, this collision did not cause any disturbance, because although Li Wan was still in the air at that time, the ball had already been shot.
So when Li Wan staggered to the ground, the ball went straight into the basket.
The point difference came to three points again!
Amidst the cheers of the audience, Li Wan yelled for everyone to return to defense.
There were no complaints during this period.
Barkley watched the replay of the ball, and suddenly gave a strange smile: "The referee has helped the Warriors a lot! Otherwise, the ball will determine the winner!"
If the referee blows the whistle, it's "2 plus 1"!
With Li Wan's free throw stability and "big scene" attribute, how could he miss such a crucial free throw?
But because of this, there was no penalty, so the point difference is still 3 points.
only……
The time also fell below the last 1 minute at this time.
"The Warriors must make this goal, otherwise, they will be in a very dangerous situation!" Bill Walton looked at Stephen Curry who was holding the ball for halftime in the screen, and said something, pointing out the current situation. Condition.
Stephen Curry is also very tired, and it can be seen from the fact that the Warriors successfully gave him a "small play big" opportunity in the pick-and-roll, and he did not shake out the open space.
But at this moment, LeBron James suddenly came up and made him a "pick and roll"!
Stephen Curry seized the opportunity and broke through the basket. Sabonis Jr. couldn't dodge and was fouled by him. Stephen Curry still hit the ball into the basket when his body lost his balance.
2 plus 1 chance!
All the Warriors players on the bench stood up, and Steve Kerr was so excited that his whole face deformed. The Warriors players on the field also rushed towards Stephen Curry immediately, trying to help him stand up.
Except LeBron James, who is celebrating...
Ok……
In his opinion, his own pick and roll is the key!
Steph Curry got up, braces in mouth, and headed for the free-throw line.
At this moment, all eyes were on him.
If the free throw is scored, the scores of the two teams will be evened.
This is definitely a "key penalty".
Stephen Curry took a deep breath and adjusted his posture. He was a little more hesitant than usual, but he was extraordinarily determined when he shot.
"Shh!"
He has never thought the sound of free throws hitting the net was so pleasant.
And after scoring the goal, he also shook his arm violently, but before the arm was completely thrown out, he was shocked when he saw Li Wan who was urging the serve: "Defend quickly, defend quickly, Li Wan is here, Li Wan is here !"
There was no excitement at all just now.
It wasn't until Steve Kerr watched him calm down from the sidelines that he realized that it wasn't Li Wan who was holding the ball, but Wiggins was holding the ball from the backcourt...
Look at this child, what does the shadow look like?
However, it wasn't just him who had shadows. The rest of the team was also full of shadows. When the ball came into Li Wan's hands, all the Warriors players on the field felt as if they were facing a formidable enemy.
There are still 30 seconds left in the game.
If Columbus's attack can be prevented, then the side full of initiative will become the Warriors' side.
The offense in that round just now was very important. If they didn't make it, the Warriors fell directly into the abyss. In the end, Stephen Curry went in, but... this just made them retract their feet that stretched out of the abyss.
If the Warriors want to win, then defending this round is the key!
Steve Kerr finally ignored him and began to double-team Li Wan with LeBron James and Iguodala. No matter who else was him, as long as he didn't get the ball, even if the ball was scored, he would consider it a goal. up!
In short, it must not be Li Wan who made the goal, otherwise the psychological pressure on the entire Warriors team will be dealt a greater blow.
Just look at what Stephen Curry looked like.
If the ball goes in...
Speaking of which, if this goal is scored again, Li Wan will set a single-game scoring record in the NBA Finals again, because he has already scored 63 points at this moment, and if he takes 2 more points, it will be 65 points, which will break his previous record in the finals. A record of 63 points in a single game.
He also felt the Warriors' strong desire to guard him and not let him shoot, so...
Before the two double-teamed, he found Carmelo Anthony's position, and after breaking through hard to a position where he could pass the ball, he immediately gave it a beautiful "ground pass".
The ball was thrown from the right side of LeBron James, and the "little emperor" also saw the ball.
He wanted to destroy it, but his tired body reached its limit after chasing Li Wan for such a long distance, he couldn't make any moves, and could only watch the ball fly away from him.
His eyes followed anxiously, the person who caught the ball...
Li Wan was not mistaken, that position was Carmelo Anthony.
The last three or four seconds are left in the 24 seconds of offense.
Because Iguodala and LeBron James double-teamed Li Wan, the entire defensive formation of the Warriors had a "vacuum period" on one side, but no one expected Carmelo Anthony to move into this "vacuum period" ...
"Melon" took the ball, and the Warriors quickly double-teamed him. The "big heart" he had cultivated in his career for more than ten years made him not panic at all. After simple adjustments, he threw his entire shot. In life, at least hundreds of thousands of millions of shots have been practiced.
The moment the ball is released, the backboard lights come on.
The ball entered the basket under the 24-second shot clock.
This "Zhan style pass"...
It feels really good!
In fact, Li Wanzhen didn't intend to pass the ball. He dragged it until the last moment, thinking that the opponent would not be able to defend him so firmly, but he didn't expect that LeBron James and Iguodala would put all their eggs in one bet and run towards him. Come over, the teammates have too much space. At this time, "Zhan's pass" can actually be used.
Besides, Carmelo Anthony is not a role player, that's what he's made for!
"Ho!"
Hit the key ball and regained the lead by 2 points. Carmelo Anthony couldn't hold back, clenched his fist and yelled.
He scored a total of 20 points in this game, and his performance was not as good as before, because he spent most of his energy on defending LeBron James.
Unfortunately, the final effect is not very good!
Therefore, he has been holding back his energy.
Originally thought that this game was another "lonely carry" of Li Wan alone, but at the last moment of the game, he actually had a chance to redeem himself!
I'd like to see who says that Li Wan's assistant this year is the weakest in recent years.
Ok……
This is indeed very concerned!
There are more than 8 seconds left in the game.
The good news is, that's enough for the Warriors to make a play.
Even better news is that the Warriors have one more timeout.
Steve Kerr didn't hesitate to use the opportunity.
Tyronn Lue began to line up, and he took down Sabonis Jr. and Adams. One of these two was a bit slower, and the other was not a defensive material.
He took Rajon Rondo and Kwame Brown for the final defense.
"Guys, don't give them three points..."
At the same time, Tyronn Lue is very soberly aware that the Columbus Explorers lead by 2 points, so as long as the opponent is not a three-pointer, even if the Warriors score a goal, they can still play overtime!
The atmosphere on the Warriors' side is even more anxious.
Steve Kerr barely stopped talking during the timeout.
And after he finished the entire tactic, the buzzer sounded, which may be the last round of the game.
What the Warriors were looking for at the beginning was a three-point opportunity.
But Tyronn Lue's reminder worked, coupled with his replacement of a more flexible "small lineup", the Warriors had no chance of taking a three-pointer at all.
The 8 seconds is relatively lenient, but not so lenient that the Warriors can continue to look for opportunities for three-point shots when there are no three-point opportunities in several runs, so...
LeBron James saw that time was running out, so he quickly took the ball and went to the basket to kill.
Tonight, in this land, he wants to be a hero!
There is another reason, he has observed that Adams and Sabonis Jr. are not under the basket, and the inside of the Columbus Explorers lacks enough height, so he can hit the basket very well.
But he underestimated the speed at which the Columbus Explorers could shrink to the basket.
But in the same way, the Columbus Explorers also underestimated LeBron James' decisive attitude.
With his killing intent decided, he rushed into the basket without hesitation in the face of the rapidly gathering Columbus Explorers defensive formation.
The abnormal physical fitness allowed him to attack the basket after confronting Kwame Brown, but when he raised his hand, Carmelo Anthony next to him touched his elbow, and in an instant Gone, but still he felt it,
The ball bounced out of the frame.
At the same time the backboard red light is on.
But he didn't panic.
because……
He knew he was fouled!
Can……
Cheers erupted throughout the stadium, and all members of the Columbus Explorers rushed towards Li Wan. His teammates had already bowed their heads, but the whistle he was expecting did not sound.
no it's not...
Foul!
They fouled!
LeBron James yelled at the referee anxiously. Seeing that no one was paying attention, he was so anxious that his knees suddenly gave way, and he knelt down. He even touched his arm that was fouled. Li kept shouting: "They fouled, why didn't they blow it? Why didn't they blow it!"
Excited to the end, kneeling on one knee turned into kneeling on both legs.
By the way, he glanced at the camera.
Looking towards the camera, his expression became more excited.
Many brothers said that it's all about LeBron recently, because the part of LeBron James' drama has reached the final stage, so how can I have fun with tonight's plot without severely criticizing it?Still the same sentence, when LeBron is written more and more, it is basically when LeBron is to be tortured in the plot.
