Chapter 269 Leonard's awareness, against James

"Hey, guys, don't be careless!" Knowing that the Cavaliers are not easy to mess with, although they took an 8-2 lead at the beginning and gained the advantage on the scene, the Heat captain Wade immediately turned to his own team after the timeout ended. Teammates are reminded.

But Wade's reminder seemed to be ignored. Leonard took advantage of James' slack defense and inserted from the middle. After receiving Yuan Su's pass, he easily evaded Anthony's defense in the air, and used his long arms to release the ball. into the basket.

Originally, this kind of cooperation often appeared in the internal and external connection between Irving and Yuan Su, but what I didn't expect was that Irving just feinted a shot, which attracted James' attention, and then Leonard broke into the penalty area to complete the pass and cut cooperation attack.

"Don't worry, there won't be a next time." James said without waiting for Wade to speak.

When it was the Cavaliers' turn to attack, James took the initiative to hold the ball and single out Leonard. In James's view, he had succeeded in beating Leonard several times in succession. This player who claims to be sure to win DPOY in the future was no exception in James's mind. If so.

So James planned to attack by himself. After making a few fake moves on the spot and still not helping him past Leonard, James still chose to break into the penalty area in a tank-like way.

This time Leonard learned to be smart. He didn't pay attention to James' pace like a normal defense, and never judged the timing of the block. Instead, he completely gave up the idea of ​​​​blocking the opponent, and kept retreating while keeping himself in the process of the opponent's breakthrough. Defensive position, and at the same time, constantly close to the body for physical confrontation.

Sure enough, James, who didn't completely get rid of Leonard, missed the layup and deviated from the basket under the interference of the opponent's long arm. Leonard finally got a successful defense!

It's a pity that Leonard was not happy for a while. Heat center Joel Anthony grabbed the offensive rebound among the crowd and passed the ball to Wade on the outside to reorganize the offense.Since Yuan Su and Bosh were fighting, it was entirely due to Varejao's poor protection that Anthony was able to grab this offensive rebound.

After Wade received the ball, he immediately flashed past Parker in front of him. Although Parker's defense was already remarkable in the shooting guard position, facing Wade was still a bit difficult.

Wade, who flashed past Parker, immediately held the ball and made an emergency stop jumper. His iconic hit on the board ended the offense for the Heat, and the score between the two sides became 10-4.

"Damn it!" Looking at Joel Anthony, who was half a head shorter than himself, Varejao couldn't squeeze the opponent, feeling that the opponent's feet were like old tree roots, tightly entangled on the floor, Relying on physical confrontation, it is difficult to move half a point!
Yuan Su ran to the outside to catch the ball, Irving ran to the inside and took Chalmers away, and Parker moved closer to the bottom corner and took Wade aside to open up space for Yuan Su.

Bosh immediately ran near the three-point line and waited for it. After all, judging from Yuan Su's performance this season, his three-point shooting and shooting ability are completely different from last season.

Leonard ran over to do a pick-and-roll for Yuan Su. Yuan Su used Leonard's block to break through from the weak side. James and Bosh, who were defending Leonard, rushed forward at the same time, forming a double-team. In this situation, the three of them immediately gathered together, but the ball disappeared!

When everyone reacted, Leonard had already dunked the ball into the basket with one hand, adding 2 points for the Cavaliers! 10-6!

It turned out that at the moment of Yuan Su's breakthrough, he and Leonard had completed a hand-to-hand pass. Because their backs were facing the Heat's defensive players, James and Bosh could not see this concealed pass. , When the double-teamer Yuan Su found out that the ball was missing, Leonard, who was unguarded at that time, had easily completed the offense.

"Damn it, Kawhi has already scored consecutively." Leonard's consecutive scoring caught James' attention.

When the Heat's offense approached 24 seconds, James had not gotten rid of Leonard's sticking plaster defense and immediately dumped the ball into Chalmers' hands at 23 seconds.

Chalmers immediately threw the hot pot to the basket 2 steps away from the three-point line, and finally completed the shooting action 24 seconds ago.

The ball bounced high on the basket and fell towards Varejao and Anthony. Varejao was about to jump, but was suddenly stuck behind Anthony. Although Anthony's muscles were not developed, but The bones all over his body hurt when touched, and he pushed Varejao behind him at once, controlling the landing point of the rebound.

"Pfft..." A muffled sound came suddenly, and Anthony's complexion changed, his eyes rolled up, and he almost fell down.

Varejao held his breath, picked up the rebound that fell on the floor and handed it to Owen immediately when everyone under the basket evacuated.

"My mother, even I can't stand it anymore." Varejao who ran out of the penalty area dared to open his mouth to breathe fresh air.

Irving launched a fast break when the Heat players were a little confused, and threw the ball directly to Yuan Su in front of him. Yuan Su dribbled the ball to face James' defense, and threw the ball behind the opponent. Leonard raised his arm high and waited. In the air, after catching the ball, dunk the ball into the basket directly on the back of James' head!James served well as the backdrop for the alley-oop goal.

How can James be so humiliated, especially after Leonard scored 3 goals in a row, the score has been narrowed to 10-8.

James once again made a breakthrough trick, rushing to the basket in five steps, swaying Irving, Parker and Leonard with consecutive small steps, and dunking the ball in with one hand. Suddenly, a turbid air poured into his mouth. If it weren't for the fact that bananas can detoxify, James would have fainted on the court at this moment.

Varejao, who was fine and normal, had already appeared on the bottom line, and complained to the referee that the ball was a walk.

The referee was expressionless, and Varejao was a little angry.

Not long after Varejao left, the referee's expression suddenly changed. First, his nose twitched twice, then his cheeks puffed up, and he hurried to the other side of the field as if he was about to vomit.

"Hmph, you must not be merciful when dealing with such a referee!" Varejao suddenly felt that it seemed that the stomach discomfort in this game was not all a bad thing. It was less than 30 seconds since the last release, and Varejao continued. The cannonball is aiming at the opponent, ready to collapse at the opponent at any time.

While these episodes were going on, Irving made several crotches in a row. After breaking through Chalmers, the Heat's defense quickly shrunk, and when the opponent's defense had just shrunk to half, Irving had already hit the ball very quickly and accurately. Found Leonard outside the three-point line.

James immediately rushed back to his defensive position, ready to defend the opponent's breakthrough, but he did not expect that Leonard did not dribble after receiving the ball, but directly shot a three-pointer!

With James watching, the ball fell into the basket accurately, 12-11!The Cavaliers are only 1 point behind!

The hero of chasing points is Leonard who is currently scoring consecutively under James' defense.

"Don't underestimate me, I can not only score!" Leonard, who has always been low-key and reticent, unexpectedly revealed his wild side after hitting this three-pointer.

"Very well, you have successfully caught my attention." Facing the rookie's provocation, James responded without showing any weakness.
