Chapter 138 Victory over the Supersonic

It hit the ground with a slap, and after the basketball hit the floor, it was accurately sent outside the 50-degree three-point line on the left.

When Lin Bairen saw the ball, he tapped it, shaking Radmanovic's defense, and jumped up to block the shot.

Dribbling the ball one step sideways, just stepping into the red shooting area, Lin Bai did not pause at all, immediately lifted the ball over the top, stood with his feet together, bent his knees and jumped up directly.

The whole movement, catching the ball, dribbling, jumping up, shooting, is like flowing water, without any extra movement, and the shot is as smooth as silk.

Hearing the crisp sound of the net being wiped in his mind, seeing the clear picture of the basketball falling into the white net, Lin Bai's rhythm, strength, and angle are all perfect, and the basketball is pulled away from his fingertips like plucking the strings of a guitar.

There was a clear sound, and after the basketball drew a beautiful trajectory in the air, it fell into the white net.

The three-pointer was accurately hit, 64 to 54! !
The Cavaliers once again extended the score to 10 points. It rained three-pointers at the beginning of the third quarter, and the SuperSonics were caught off guard.

The Supersonic home game is only 10 points away, and the time is still long, so there is no reason to admit defeat easily.

Brent Barry dribbled the ball to the frontcourt organization, and then distributed the ball to Ray Allen who was ambushing on the right.

Lin Bai knew in his heart that giving Ray Allen room to break through and shoot was tantamount to giving points, so he directly completed the close defense, wanting to put some defensive pressure on the opponent.

However, Ray Allen's face was calm and steady, and he didn't rush to make progress, but hit Lin Bai with his back and the ball.

Immediately, he found that Lin Bai's strength was mediocre, so he didn't hesitate, dribbled the ball directly against Lin Bai, and played singles with his back.

Grinding Lin Bai into the horn area, he immediately turned over and jumped up, took a bow and shot an arrow, turned around and made a two-point fadeaway jump shot, and steadily sent the basketball into the net.

64 to 56! !
Although the Sonics are behind, their shooting percentage is still very high, their shooting firepower has not decreased much, and their offense is still extremely sharp.

Looking back, Ray Allen let Lin Bai know what a stalking defense is. With top-notch physical talent and superb off-the-ball running skills, Lin Bai couldn't catch the ball no matter how hard he tried, even with Boozer's help. Cover to help get rid of, the effect is still not good.

Even if he ran out of open space and received the basketball, Ray Allen could turn back in time to chase, and Lin Bai didn't run to the red shooting area, and the effect of his shots was not very good, which directly froze Lin Bai's peripheral attack.

However, the Cavaliers can still score points on offense.

Although Lin Bai didn't directly score, the first two precise three-pointers made a deep impression on the Supersonic generals, and they didn't dare to shrink inside.

James sensed the confusion of the Supersonics defense, and without any politeness, he directly forced the ball in the middle to break through Brent Barry.

He rushed to the basket aggressively, attracted the Supersonic defense, passed the ball to Ilgauskas behind Kalvin Booth, caught the ball and jumped, and directly dunked the basketball into the basket with both hands.

It was just a trial of a ball and it was scored successfully.

James' eyes lit up, and he didn't give up halfway, and immediately turned on the "Full Zhan" mode.

Dribble to the frontcourt, without slowing down, directly speeding up into the three-point line, changing direction with a step-down dribble, shooting the basketball from left to right, taking a step sideways, easily passing Brent Barry, pulling the ball Then, he jumped up in two steps, his body bloomed in the air, very elegant.

With a loud bang, James' physical talent was too strong, he jumped up with his head almost flat, and smashed the basketball into the basket heavily with one hand!

Immediately afterwards, James still made a breakthrough. This time he was too lazy to do fake moves, and directly bullied Brent Barry with his strong physique. Hit the bullseye!

Consecutively scored by James, the Supersonics can only double-team, or even encircle at all costs. Otherwise, the Supersonics are likely to be picked up by the little emperor James one by one and fall to the ground.

However, as soon as the Supersonics implemented the double-team tactic, James had all-round eyes, and frequently began to break through the ball.

He reached the free throw line, facing the double-teaming of Barry and Radmanovich, without even looking at it, he casually hoisted the basketball into the inside lane.

Ilgauskas easily completed the air pull dunk.

Or a hit to the ground, you can pass through the defensive gap between Barry and Radmanovich, and easily send it to the empty cut basket. In the hands of Ellie Williams, he easily jumped up and completed the goal. Attack the basket at close range, and send the basketball into the basket with one pick.

James' super god-like offense made the Supersonic not dare to expand the defense to the outside. They could only bite the bullet and gamble again. Even if they were bombarded to death by outside firepower, it was much better than being blown up by James alone!

Determined to shrink, he immediately defended against James' crazy attack.

It's just that the Sonics haven't had time to be happy, and even before the Cavaliers' three-point rain falls, their offensive firepower has been misfired.

First of all, the firepower of Lewis' left line was frozen by Boozer. Boozer, who is not good at defense, actually played a defense like a solid wall, which made Lewis at a loss. His shooting rate plummeted and his skills were taken away.

The second is Radmanovic's flanking firepower. Under James' defense, there are also some signs of failure.

In the first half, he was not in a state of feeling hot and hot, and the frequent shots were all under the suppression and interference of James, and the strikes went wide.

Two dubious forwards attacked, which made the Sonics a headache when they needed to chase points.

You know, the Supersonics center Carver Booth has no offensive ability, and point guard Brent Barry has to organize support. Under the marking of Errie Williams, there is not much offensive firepower left.

The only offensive point that can truly continue to provide firepower is Ray Allen's musket.

Ray Allen was stubborn, he made sudden shots, no matter how he hit, and directly hit Lin Bai without temper, and he actually fought James back and forth. The Sonics lasted until the fourth quarter.

It's just that it is simply unrealistic for one person to lead a team to fight a team.

Even if it is as strong as Iverson, there are four teammates who are very strong on the defensive end, allowing Iverson to attack to the fullest, and only then did the 2001 76ers have a bright performance.

Now the Supersonics won the game, never relying on defense to win the game but super offensive firepower.

Without defense, Ray Allen just got off the field to take a few breaths in the fourth quarter, and was immediately blasted by the Cavaliers with a wave of offense, taking the victory of the game with the ball.

The head coach of the Supersonics, McMillan, quickly replaced Ray Allen on the court, wanting to work harder.

It's just that Ray Allen opened up the scoring account when he played, but the defense still couldn't withstand the Cavaliers' offensive firepower.

Ray Allen made 21 of 12 shots and scored 36 points, 6 rebounds and 5 assists. He still couldn't turn the tide and changed the life of the Sonics with a poor defense.

With James scoring 30 points, 10 assists and 8 rebounds as a quasi-triple-double superstar, the Sonics could only swallow the bitter fruit of defeat.

At the end of the game, the Cavaliers beat their opponents by 108 points 97 to 11 away and won two consecutive victories in the Western Conference!
