Buddha's light illuminates NBA

Chapter 112 He, They, All Think Wrong!

After the timeout ended, Anthony still had to carry the Nuggets' offensive banner. He had only rested for less than 2 minutes before, and he had taken 20 shots and scored a game-high 42 points.

It is simply a scoring machine!

Moreover, as many as 12 free throws were made, and the Knicks' inside line was also called a pass.

The Knicks' three starting insiders, one counts as one, all have 4 fouls on their backs. Facing Anthony's offense, they are already a little afraid to reach out.

And when Anthony's scoring stopped, Mr. Billups, the key man, always scored key goals and scored 28 points. In addition, JR-Smith also gave two shuttles abruptly.

Just these three people almost concentrated [-]% of the Nuggets' scoring.

Therefore, the Knicks, whose scores are relatively evenly distributed, can bite the score and leave hope of winning.

For the Knicks, Lu Ming scored the second highest score in the team, scoring 24 points, but also sent 15 assists and grabbed 10 rebounds.

Yes, Lu Ming has achieved a triple-double ahead of schedule.

In addition, 4 blocks were sent out, and JR-Smith exclusively enjoyed half of the game.

Al Harrington, who was transferred to the starting lineup in this game, made 20 of 12 shots and scored 27 points.

David Lee only took 11 shots, of course, there were two rebounds in the attack, and he scored 21 points efficiently. In addition, 10 rebounds were recorded.

The three scored 20 points, just like the "Big Three".

In addition, Larry - Hughes 14 points, Wilson - Chandler 12 points, off the bench Chris - Duhon 10 points, Gallinari 11 points.

As a whole, six players scored in double figures.

"This game is completely an extreme overall, against the ultimate individual offense." Kenny Smith said.

But Barkley immediately retorted, "Although the six Knicks scored in double figures, the one who really connects the team is still Lu Ming, who has already achieved a triple-double."

He didn't forget his reputation as the number one player in the league.

"But the performance of several other people is also very good." Kenny - Smith instinctively disagreed.

"Yes, in the same way, you can't ignore the role of Mr. Key in the Nuggets team. He now has 28 points and 7 assists, and his role is not much smaller than that of Anthony." Barkley said.

"So, this game is more like a dual-core game against the Big Three." Kenny Smith steals a result from Barkley's words.

"Dual-core is true dual-core, but the theory of the Big Three is very problematic. If you remember the Knicks game the day before yesterday, when Lu's performance was abnormal, the performance of other players. And, when Lu was unable to play due to injury, you can know the performance of the Knicks. Now the Knicks have only one core!" Barkley completely disagrees with the so-called Knicks. Big Three.

"It's a bit exaggerated, isn't it?" Although Kenny Smith agreed with Lu Ming's role, he still felt it was inappropriate for Barkley to exaggerate so much.

"It's not an exaggeration at all." Barkley was very sure.

Lu Chui's path was extremely firm.

And on the field, the game continues.

After the timeout, Anthony used his excellent inside attack to easily score a goal against David Lee.

In the Knicks' attack, Lu Ming used two screens to hit the inside line after he came down quickly.

108:110, the Knicks continued to maintain a 2-point difference.

A few more rounds passed.

In the last 2 minutes of time, 121:123, the Knicks fell behind by 2 points!
The situation on the field has reached a fever pitch.

Fortunately, it didn't appear, the whistle that was too biased towards home appeared.

There is no way. In this game, during the intermission, the league specifically explained that they can have home court advantage, but don't go too far, especially in the last 2 minutes. If there is a decisive moment, the referee must not steal the show.

As a result, the actions of both sides on the offensive and defensive ends have become more and more serious, pulling people, dark elbows, as long as it is not so obvious, the referee will turn a blind eye and close one eye.

At 1 minute and 58 seconds, the Nuggets' offense, at the moment when Billups hit the ball into Anthony's hands again, Lu Ming suddenly let go of his defensive player JR-Smith and risked double-teaming Anthony.

In the face of double-teaming, Anthony's first choice is not to pass the ball, but to try to use his personal ability to solve the double-teaming.

But the timing and position of Lu Ming's double-teaming were just right. The moment Anthony released the ball, he suddenly reached out and poked the basketball out of the field!

Almost a steal.

"Melo, just call back later." As a senior in the league, Billups knew that at this time, he didn't want to say something like "don't be impulsive" or "be calm".

Anthony nodded.

For the Nuggets' offense, Billups served the sideline kick.

Anthony was entangled by Harrington, and there was no space to catch the ball at all. Seeing that 5 seconds were approaching, JR finally got rid of Lu Ming and ran two steps beyond the three-point line to catch the ball.

After pulling the ball, just as he turned around to make some moves, Lu Ming suddenly reached out and pressed firmly on the basketball.

JR panicked and held on to the basketball tightly.

beep!
In the end, the referee called a scrimmage!

Although Lu Ming and JR's jump ball were slightly weaker than JR-Smith in terms of bounce, Lu Ming's long arms and big hands played a role, and the basketball was transferred to Larry Hughes.

"Fast attack!" Lu Ming shouted as soon as he landed.

It is Chinese.

The Nuggets couldn't understand it, but the Knicks were already familiar with this password-like tactical command. Larry Hughes immediately dribbled towards the Nuggets' half court.

At the same time, the Knicks' players, Harrington and Chandler closest to the center line, also rushed down at the same time.

Among the Nuggets, only Billups responded in a timely manner and quickly returned to defense, but one defense and three defenses could not stop the Knicks' third-line fast break.

In the end, Chandler dunked and the Knicks tied the score!

beep!
The Nuggets called the final long timeout.

After the Knicks tied the score, their momentum surged, but there was no time for them to get excited.

There are less than 2 minutes left, and it is not too late to cheer after victory.

D'Antoni called the players over, turned in a circle, and prepared to arrange the next defensive and offensive tactics, but in the end he only said a few useless words, "Gase, you did a good job! Next, defend the opponent and leave the offense to Lu!"

"..." Lu Ming was a little speechless.

Even if this is said, it is quite morale-boosting.

But at this time, shouldn't we focus on a defense and draw two offensive tactics?
It's only about defending against the opponent, how to defend?
Offensively, just give me the ball and the others stand?

Although he knew early on that D'Antoni's resilience on the spot was mediocre, but Lu Ming didn't know what to say to be so mediocre.

However, this game must be won.

Leading the team to a three-game losing streak in away games, Lu Ming can't let that happen.

So before going on the field, Lu Ming called the other four teammates together, formed a circle, and said loudly, "Everyone, from now on, I may focus more on offense."

"You should have done this a long time ago! Oh, my God, Lu, you took away all the assists that belonged to me!" Larry Hughes started today and scored 16 points. He was in a good mood.

However, the assists were only a pitiful 4 times, and he didn't look like a combo guard at all.

Moreover, what he said was not wrong is that in this game in history, he got 9 assists.

"I'll pay you back next time." Lu Ming smiled and looked at the others.

David Lee shrugged, "Boss, I have completed the task of 20+10, what should I do next, just tell me!"

"me too."

"Me too!"

Harrington and Chandler also responded.

The performance of the two today made D'Antoni's change seem very wise.

"Thank you!"

Lu Ming nodded, and then said, "The four of you have the lowest three-point shooting percentage of [-]% today, so in the next time, I need you to open up space for me. I am going to use some means to bomb the Nuggets' basket."

"..." The four of them looked at each other and then smiled.

Dunk again?
easy to say!easy to say!
The timeout ends and players from both sides come to the field.

With 1 minute and 49 seconds left in the game, the two sides came to the same starting line.

But the mentality of the two sides is not on the same starting line.

The Nuggets had a sneak attack by Lu Ming at the beginning and fell behind 0:2 in the opening game. After that, the Nuggets kept leading, and at the highest point, the Nuggets led by 9 points.

But at the end of the day, it was even again!

This will more or less affect the mentality of the Nuggets players.

So after the timeout, in the Nuggets' first attack, Anthony got the ball in the low post, and the Knicks didn't double-team, facing Chandler's tough defense, they missed the shot.

David Lee stuck Nene, and the rebound was taken by Lu Ming who slipped inside.

"run!"

The last time I said fast break, this time Lu Ming simply said run.

Although the Nuggets couldn't understand what Lu Ming said, they saw that the Knicks players were running towards their home court, and guessed that the Knicks were about to run away, so they quickly returned to defense.

But at this moment, Lu Ming didn't start running, and dribbled the ball across the half court in a normal rhythm.

"..."

On the sidelines, D'Antoni and Atkinson looked at each other, "If I heard you right, Lu was going to fight and run away just now, right?"

"Yes, you heard it right. Maybe it was because the Nuggets returned to defense too quickly and changed their minds?"

Atkinson said uncertainly, and then thought of a sentence, "What is true is false, and false is true."

On the court, Lu Ming came to the top of the arc, took two big steps outside the three-point line, looked at Billups on the three-point line, calmly dribbled the ball with his left hand, and suddenly extended his right hand, placed it on his chest, and made a move!
Single palm salute!
Billups froze for a moment, and subconsciously wanted to step forward.

Fortunately, he realized that Lu Ming was still taking two big strides beyond the three-point line, no one would make a shot here.

He guessed that Lu Ming might break through next, so he got ready.

The other four players on the Knicks field also thought that Lu Ming was going to break through and complete a violent dunk, so they all walked out to make room for Lu Ming.

But, he, they, all thought wrong!
Break through, then dunk?

Do not!
The next second, Lu Ming put down his right hand, glanced at Billups who was unmoved, and smiled at the corner of his mouth, then suddenly received the ball, jumped up, and the moment his body stopped in the air, he threw the basketball.

Billups' eyes widened.

what's the situation?
Why did he shoot at this position, and not at the last second?
Accompanied by these doubts, he still turned his head and looked at the basketball in the air, although he didn't think at all that Lu Ming would shoot such an ultra-long three-pointer that was even more absurd than JR-Smith's shot choice.

As for the Knicks players, after being stunned for a while, what they thought in their hearts was:

"No way? It's not a slam dunk? No way? This guy really wants to take the shot he made in training to the field? And, is it at such a critical time?"

Then, Qiqi looked at the basketball in the air.
