Chapter 1248 Charles, Are You Crazy?
But the blue-blooded basket was not better than the basket. Li Ba turned faster than James, and his first step was also faster. He caught up with James, defended on the left front side of James, and squeezed James with his chest to prevent him from rushing up, while making him lose balance.
James carried Li Ba with his left hand, dribbled with his right hand, and barely reached the left elbow area, but his speed did not rush up.
At this moment, he made a quick stop and jump shot.
James failed to rush up, and Li Ba knew that he would shoot, so he was prepared and jumped to block.
In terms of bounce speed, Li Ba is better than James, and his arm span is more advantageous. The height of the block is enough to keep up with James's shot.
But at this time, James' hand deviated, avoiding Li Ba's block, and passed the ball to the right wing.
At this time, Wade left Ginobili, received the ball and cut into the paint area, facing the defense of the Polish Hammer, he made a European step, then changed direction, and hit the Polish Hammer while making a layup.
As the ball hit the basket, the whistle sounded, and the referee ran over to signal the Polish Hammer to block the foul, and Wade scored an extra free throw.
"This is James' passing ability. His vision gives him another chance to play his passing ability."
Barkley exclaimed.
Wade stood on the free throw line and prepared to shoot free throws.
"Rookie, I'll defend you next time."
Li Ba, who was standing on the sideline, sprayed a trash talk to Wade and interfered with the opponent's free throws.
Wade was stunned and immediately sprayed back: "Come if you dare, I'm afraid of you?"
At this time, the referee threw the ball over, Wade caught the ball and threw it, and then dribbled it seven or eight times. After looking at Li Ba again, he snorted coldly and shot.
"Bang!"
The ball hit the basket and was caught by Li Ba.
"Damn it!"
Wade shook his hand in annoyance and hurried back to defense.
The Suns attacked.
Li Ba advanced to the top of the arc and slowed down. After James also slowed down, he suddenly accelerated, broke through James in one step, and killed into the paint area.
However, Li Ba did not have the ability to shoot from outside, and James had already let him go, so he followed his rhythm and defended on his left front side, just like Li Ba just now, and did not completely lose defense.
Just after passing the free throw line, Li Ba made a quick stop and jump shot.
There were people all over the basket, and there was no space to break through, so he could only shoot here.
James also knew this, and followed up with a jump shot.
But Li Ba stood up faster than him, his arms were longer than him, and he was taller than him, and his jumping was not inferior to him, so his blocking height was not enough for the former's shooting height.
"Swish!"
Li Ba made a jump shot close to the basket.
After the shot, he glanced at the referee. James had hit his hand just now, but there was no whistle. Today, the referee was a little too biased.
Heat attack.
James pushed the ball to the left wing three-point line again. At this time, Li Ba did not wait for him to turn around, and directly implemented a steal, forcing the former to protect the ball sideways.
Li Ba continued to press the ball. Without committing a foul, he relied on his ability to not look at the ball and his accurate capture to touch the ball twice in a row, forcing James to close the ball to protect it.
This time, James stopped where he was and could only pass or shoot.
This time, it was more conducive to Li Ba's steal. He did not give James a chance to pass the ball at all, so he could only hold it tightly in his arms.
His defense was not a foul either, and he did not touch James' body directly with his hands. The referee wanted to call him a foul but had no chance.
James tried to get up and pass the ball, but Li Ba's hands were immediately on the ball, so he had to quickly turn around and dodge Li Ba's hands.
At the same time, Dudley also rushed up and implemented a double team.
"Steal, steal the ball!" Yu Jia shouted excitedly at this time.
With the cooperation of the double team, Li Ba finally found an opportunity to start, put his hands on the ball, and grabbed the ball from James' arms with brute force.
Li Ba played a fast break, and James desperately chased and defended. In the end, the former carried the latter's defense and succeeded in a dunk.
In the fifth minute of the second quarter, 38:28, the Suns led by 10 points, and the Heat made substitutions, with all the main players on the court.
On the Suns side, Li Ba continued to play point guard, and A-Lian replaced the Polish Hammer, and the other lineups remained unchanged.
A-Lian was greased all over, just like he had done a hundred big key-savings. Now his physical condition is just right and he feels very lightly tired.
With the main lineup, the Heat took the advantage. At the end of the half, 52:46, the Suns still led by 6 points.
Barkley analyzed during the halftime break: "From the situation in the first half, the Suns still have the advantage.
The main advantage is that the first is rebounds.
The Hammer was at the No. 1 position for the second time, and only grabbed three rebounds. There were ten rebounds in the first half, but the Heat still lost 4 rebounds to the Suns.
This advantage is not big, but the second advantage continues to accumulate. The Hammer played a good defensive performance against James in the second quarter, stealing James 3 times and blocking 2 times in a single quarter, and a total of 4 steals and 4 blocks in the third quarter. And he was in the second half of the second quarter , in the case of easy separation, he increased the breakthrough to the basket, and also caused James and Marc Gasol to foul once each. "
Kenny Smith laughed: "Charles, you can just say that it is the defensive advantage of the Hammer, why make it so complicated?"
Barkley laughed and said: "The Hammer made 7 of 8 shots and 3 of 5 free throws in the first half, and got 17 points, 10 rebounds, 7 assists, 6 steals, 6 blocks, 1 turnover and 1 foul. I can be sure that he should be able to play a five-double in this game."
"It's not rare for him to play a five-double." Kenny Smith laughed.
Barkley added: "When the Hammers served as the point guard, I think the Heat fell into a misunderstanding. In fact, James should not follow the Hammers on the offensive end to play the point guard. This exposed the Heat's ball directly to the Iron Hammers. Under the hammer's defense."
"Shh!"
Kenny Smith was startled and quickly told Barkley to shut up.
He also signaled the broadcast room to cut the commercial first, then turned off the microphone, and then said to the confused Barkley: "You are crazy, Charles, this is not an ordinary regular season, this is a dynasty title defense, and it is the Suns' match point." , public opinion is now unfavorable to the Hammers, and he needs to use his second dynasty defense to determine his status in history. This is a battle between him and Michael Jordan. Why are you getting involved?
Remember, don’t talk about allergy-related things, just talk about bad tactics, etc. Don’t mention tactics that they didn’t play. "
Barkley also reacted and nodded repeatedly: "Yes, yes, I ignored it, Kenny, thank you. I just wanted to remind the Heat to take James out of the game, so that the Hammers will also be taken away from the game. Dui Yi’s counter is actually pretty good, and the Suns will be finished without the Hammers.”
"Fortunately you didn't tell me, otherwise I would have guaranteed that Hammer would invite you to play in the sea in Miami." Kenny Smith said with a smirk.
Buckley's mind flashed to the scene of a group of bull sharks chasing his big ass, and he shuddered for a moment.
