Healing Basketball

Chapter 672 672. Cap!cap!
6 to 5, the Trail Blazers overtook the Cavaliers by 1 point by relying on a defensive counterattack.

Damon Jones opened his eyes in bewilderment, and what he saw was the back of Liu Xiu running back and the ball bouncing towards the free throw line.

How could he not have imagined what happened?
He thought of the saying that has been very popular in recent years-the warden does not detain unknown persons.

He considers himself the strongest pitcher in the NBA, and his self-esteem was hit at this moment... But Larry Hughes, who ran back to serve and receive the serve, was completely out of focus on this extremely emotional teammate at this time.

The teammates haven't realized it yet, but as the first defense leader last season and the DPOY candidate last season, he is keenly aware that their well-prepared defense seems to be unable to be used before it is fully deployed!
But before he started thinking about how to solve the troubles on the defensive end, the troubles on the offensive end came.

As soon as he advanced halfway, he saw the high school student boss standing on the right side of the top arc with his hips crossed. When he was beyond the three-point line, the boss raised his left hand, and he had to pass it, and then went to the flank to pull away.

James continues to force Liu Xiu!

James is working hard, but Liu Xiu is one of the best perimeter defenders in the league in defending James. The effect of hard defense is comparable to that of Artest. The two have played against each other in the past 5 times, and James' shooting percentage is only 40.6%.

The effect of James' breakthrough this time is still just to help Damon Jones pull the upper line, successfully pass the ball to Damon Jones, and he didn't even create a chance for Big Z to catch and shoot.

However, this time Ray Allen did an excellent job chasing and defending. Now James’ breakthrough is not as powerful as Wade’s, let alone O’Neal’s internal restraint. - Allen can predict ahead of time in a few rounds.

Damon Jones was caught by Ray Allen the first time he received the ball. He feinted a shot, but Ray Allen ignored him.

At this time, Larry Hughes ran back from the right baseline to get rid of the outsider's defense, and waved at Damon Jones while shouting "Pasmi", but Damon Jones was full of thoughts The anger of being treated as an unknown person ignored Larry Hughes, who thought he was the number one three-pointer in the league. He was very upset when he saw the calm expression of the number one three-pointer in the league. Three-point shot...

Miss!

Larry Hughes was pissed off, but he still rushed professionally... During the confrontation, a handsome player jumped up and took the ball.

Seeing that it was Liu Xiu who grabbed the rebound, Larry Hughes quickly hugged Liu Xiu who landed and turned around to make a counterattack.

The referee whistled, Larry Hughes fouled, and the Trail Blazers backcourt the ball.

Liu Xiu showed impatience and waved Larry Hughes away.

The action was so rough that Larry Hughes bared his teeth.

But before the Cavaliers players could react, the referee squeezed into the crowd like a flash, warning Larry Hughes for foul actions and Liu Xiu's overreaction.

Liu Xiu smiled at the referee, "It's not that serious."

The referee also responded with a smile: "I just don't want to make things so serious."

Liu Xiu's intention to stimulate the opponent was seen through by the referee. In the referee's perception, Liu Xiuzhen lost his temper, and Larry Hughes stopped standing.

Usually referees don't care about this kind of thing. From the rules, it's not time to do so, and according to the referee's understanding of the game, this is part of Liu Xiu's "strength". But tonight's game president is in the box and cannot There is an accident.

As for Larry Hughes, he is very aggrieved now, but the reason for the grievance is not being bullied or elbowed by the warden.

But his partner's small forward can only score points, and the point guard never passes the ball. It's really a pain to play here!
Thinking of the choice of accepting the offer from the Cavaliers last summer, if God gave him a chance to do it all over again, he would still accept it.

5-year maximum salary, with the offers from the Wizards and other teams, he will not be able to earn 5-year maximum salary in his entire life.

The Trail Blazers continued to attack, and Liu Xiu continued to accelerate after dribbling the ball through the middle circle!
After passing James in the top arc, Liu Xiu took a step to the left of the free throw line to make an emergency stop, took off, and made a mid-range shot... The sense of rhythm came, and it was a hit!
8 to 5, the Trail Blazers lead reached 3 points.

The shrinking Larry Hughes retracted and could only pick up the ball and serve. He is now in a heavy mood.

Their well-prepared defense is indeed useless at all!
Just now Liu Xiu chose to break through from the left, and they also had defensive adjustments to prepare for Liu Xiu's change in play. As a result, Liu Xiu didn't break in at all, and just surrounded the small arc area from the free throw line to make an emergency stop and jump shot!

At this moment, Larry Hughes heard the shout of the high school student boss, and the offense and defense were switched. James ran to the front court and waved for the ball. Larry Hughes quickly sent the ball.

Larry Hughes, who is capable of averaging 5+ assists per game, serves the ball in a lob and sends the ball to the line where James is about to get off. James receives the ball and pushes forward, very comfortable.

James did not play a direct fast break. Kwame Brown, the outlaws, and Liu Xiu did a good job of retreating and did not give James such a chance.

However, with the restraint of Damon Jones who followed up from the flank and Larry Hughes who rushed to the frontcourt after serving, James still created a dislocation. Directly run over the outlaw lunatics and break into the inside line.

There was no interference in the middle, and James, who was fully charged, splattered his feet when he got close, and Kwame Brown was shaken to pieces.

James crossed to the other side of the reasonable collision zone, and the 100% chance to score came. The fans on the scene began to cheer wildly. He heard the crazy screams of the fans on the bottom line. The ball hit the basket... "Pa" and "Boom" sounded one after another, and the screaming stopped abruptly.

Damon Jones' Liu Xiu, who was following up just now, went straight to the basket from a 45-degree angle on the right, and slapped James' dunk on the backboard with a slap!

The ball bounced off the backboard, and Damon Jones, who was following up, picked it up and saw Liu Xiu in front of him. He wanted to dribble it out, and he got revenge. He followed the momentum of rushing into the inside and took a step and took off. , to buckle...

Liu Xiu, who turned around to look for the ball after landing, saw Damon Jones stepping towards him and took off, so he quickly followed suit.

Damon Jones was not afraid to see Liu Xiu turn around and take off, he wanted to dunk Liu Xiu!

The rushing Damon-Jones jumped a little higher than Liu Xiu's original jump, but..."slap"... Liu Xiu slapped Damon-Jones' dunk away!
Both of them wear shoes in the early 190s, but Damon Jones' height and wingspan are about the same as the future Golden State LaVine's, and Liu Xiu's wingspan is more than 10 centimeters longer than the other's!

Damon Jones jumped a little higher and lifted the ball with his arms straight up, but was slapped by Liu Xiu!
