The world's best combo guard

Chapter 202 199 [The emperor ran away]

"Boys, I'm proud of your performance in the first half. From the beginning of this season until now, we have been interpreting the essence of basketball. We just want to win every game as much as possible."

"Listen, we played really well in the first half, we not only resisted the crazy pressure of the opponent, but also kept the lead in the score, what does that mean? It means that we have the ability to beat them, like I said before the game started. As emphasized, as long as we are the best on both offense and defense, we have the ability to win, and we have often done it before that, haven't we?"

…………

Intermission, the visiting team's locker room, Rudy Tom and Norwich stood in the middle of the locker room, clapped their hands, and explained to Li Hao and the others some key tactics in the second half of the game.

Among them, Rudy Tom and Norwich emphasized the addition of outside three-pointers. To be honest, this coincides with Li Hao who is sitting on a chair with his head down and resting at the moment.

Through the first half of the game, Li Hao found that the Cavaliers' outside defense was not very good. In addition, the team struggled in the inside offense in the first half, which gave Li Hao the idea of ​​strengthening outside shooting.

Now that Rudy Tom and Norwich took the initiative to propose it, it couldn’t be better for Li Hao. After all, the Lakers’ outside shooting is really good. Whether it is Li Hao himself or Fisher and others, they all have three-pointers. ability.

…………

After the 15-minute inter-section break, players from both sides returned to the court one after another, and the third quarter officially began.

The Lakers were the first to attack. After Li Hao quickly advanced from the backcourt to the frontcourt with the ball, facing Ira Newbell's defense, he hit a long-range three-pointer.

"brush"

hit!

"Oh, the Lakers No. [-] kicked off the third quarter with a long-range three-pointer"

After Li Hao hit a super long-range three-pointer, James was not to be outdone, and randomly received McGinnis' breakthrough ball from the left corner, and also hit a three-pointer.

Immediately afterwards, the Lakers played a double-tower match, with Lamar Odom playing the ball for Brian Cook under the basket, but it was a pity that Brian Cook missed the hit, but he grabbed the second offensive rebound .

After grabbing the second offensive rebound, Brian Cook failed to get a direct shot at the basket, and immediately distributed the ball to Li Hao at the top of the arc.

Facing Ira Newbell's defense, Li Hao didn't hesitate, and quickly shot another three-pointer.

The next second, the referee whistle sounded.

What whistle?
The referee Crawford immediately gave an explanation.

"Oh, God, Ira Newbell? What just happened in a split second?"

That's right, Crawford called Ira Newbell a technical foul!
"What the hell happened? Let's look at the replay. The Lakers received a pass from Lamar on the 10th and immediately took a shot against Ira Newbell, huh? The moment it landed, Lee staggered? Oh no, Ira Newbell His right foot, he's on tiptoe!"

In an instant, the entire Quicken Loans Arena exploded!

The replay footage showed that Ira Newbell tiptoed towards Li Hao just now.

"It's going to be a huge blow to Cleveland that Ira Nubel got ejected because he had already received a technical foul before that..."

"There is no doubt that the possibility of Crawford's penalty being withdrawn is zero. As we all know, the referees have always been sensitive to this kind of foul action on tiptoe in the game"

"Perhaps, the turning point of this game came because of this incident..."

…………

On the court, a group of Cavaliers players surrounded Crawford, and on the sidelines, Cavaliers coach Mike Brown was also protesting loudly and non-stop.

However, this time, without even thinking about it, Crawford completely cut off the knight's request.

"Crawford didn't take his call back, or even think about it. Obviously, Ira Nubell's game is over."

"For Cleveland, this is definitely an important blow. Ira Nubel is very important to them. If they want to beat the Lakers, he is an integral part."

""However, it is a pity now that because of an action, he will leave the court early in this game"

"There were no miracles, Ira Nubel was sent off, he was walking off the pitch, obviously at this point he was frustrated"

On the court, after trying to defend himself to no avail, in the Quicken Loans Arena where the floor could almost be heard, Ilan Nubell walked down the player tunnel dejectedly. It seemed that he was indeed very depressed at this moment. Perhaps the action just now He didn't do it intentionally, but what is certain is that at this time, he must be very regretful of the action just now, because he also knows very well in his heart what his being sent off means to this game.

"Perhaps we should all believe in the professionalism of NBA players. We should be willing to believe that it was not an intentional action, but this is competitive sports. It has its rules and its bottom line, whether it is intentional or not, but as long as If you touch it, you must pay the price."

"We feel sorry for Elaine Nubel, look at his expression, at the moment, he is obviously very depressed, well, this is really a picture that I don't want to see"

…………

"So, let's take the page from Ira Nubell just now and see what happens in the next game. Of course, for the Lakers, Ira Nubel's departure is definitely good news, you know , Ira Nubell is an important point of support for the Cavaliers outside, both on the offensive end and the defensive end.”

"Of course, I think Rudy Tom and Norwich are also lucky. Ira Nubell's action just now didn't cause any physical problems for Lee. Otherwise, it might be a fatal blow to the Lakers."

"Li, you have to tell me clearly that what that guy did just now didn't cause you any problems"

"I'm sure, I'm really fine"

After the move by Ila Newbell just now, Rudy Tom and Norwich immediately replaced Li Hao.

"It's fine, thank God for being on our side this time"

Looking at the relieved expression of Rudy Norwich next to him, Li Hao unconsciously had a warm current in his heart. He knew that Rudy Tom Norwich's so-called thank God was not referring to Crawford. With Ira Nubel sent off, he has every reason to believe that, between health and victory, Rudy Norwich will choose the former without hesitation.

.........

"Players, calm down, continue to play according to our rhythm, the victory will belong to us, I always believe that Cleveland will get better and better, each of us is very good"

On the court, Robert Traylor replaced Ira Nubel, the game continued, watching the more or less frustrated expressions of his own players on the court, including LeBron James, on the sidelines, Mike Brown Unable to sit still, he immediately rushed up and cheered loudly to the players on the field.

This is what he must do as the head coach of the team at this time, even if he knows in his heart that Ilan Nubel's departure is definitely a big blow to the team.

James, who was advancing with the ball, glanced at Mike Brown who was shouting hard on the sidelines, and his expression finally returned to normal. How to say, even if he finally lost the game tonight, he couldn't lose too ugly.

Of course, at the same time, James is also annoyed by his performance just now. What happened to him? As the leader of the team, how can he be the first to be depressed when the team encounters difficulties?It really shouldn't be.

"boom"

"Oh, LeBron James used a tomahawk to vent his inner anger at the moment. It can be seen that Ira Nubell's sudden departure has affected him a bit."

Immediately afterwards, James completed a tomahawk dunk against Kareem Rush who replaced Li Hao, which instantly ignited the Quicken Loans Arena that had been silent for a long time.

"In addition to venting, LeBron, as the team leader, obviously wants to re-enhance the fighting spirit of his teammates through this scoring method"

"He did it, no question, look at McGinnis, look at Varejao...LeBron James is definitely capable of being a great leader..."

James' dunks indeed rekindled the fighting spirit of the Cavaliers players, especially McInnis, one of the main players, who obviously returned to his normal playing mode at this time.

For James, this should undoubtedly be happy.

The game continued, and James' dunk made the Cavaliers play an 8:0 offensive climax in an instant, leading the score.

For the Lakers, the "benefit" of Ira Nubel's departure has turned into a "disaster". If no one has come forward, perhaps this game will be lost, because the Cavaliers' offensive momentum is in full swing at this time.

The Lakers naturally need heroes at this time.

Who can be a hero?
Rudy Tom and Norwich waved his hand, and Li Hao returned to the court. Maybe the hero will show up in the next second. Many people, especially Lakers fans, think so...

It is not unreasonable for many people to think that Li Hao is one of the Lakers' absolute offensive and defensive cores this season, especially in the absence of Kobe in this game, this recognition has been infinitely magnified during the team's difficult period.

Just like now.

When Li Hao returned to the field, he instantly assisted Caron Butler and hit a three-pointer from the left corner to tie the score again.

"It was a very exciting game. The players on both sides were going all out. To the surprise of the Lakers, Caron Butler, who had been playing iron on the outside in the first half of the game, found his shooting touch. Look, this quarter was played. So far, Caron Butler has made 3 of 2 three-pointers, which is self-evident for the team, especially the three-pointer that tied the score just now, which is fully reflected.”

"Caron Butler did perform very well in this game, but when the performance of our other Lakers players, we must not forget Lee, this guy who has been creating miracles along the way. There's no way Lom Butler can hit an easy [-]-pointer."

"Haha, look, Cleveland has made a change. Robert Traylor, who replaced Ira Newbell, obviously can't put too much pressure on Li Hao on the defensive end. Mike Brown is also aware of this, so LeBron is on the right the Lakers No. [-]”

"It must be admitted that Lee will face great challenges in the future. He may face the little emperor's defense for a long time. As we all know, LeBron James' defensive power is very top-notch."

"From another point of view, the absolute core of the Lakers without Kobe can only be Lee, and if LeBron James can strangle Lee to death, maybe the Lakers will also be caught seven inches!"

At 8 minutes and 32 seconds of the third quarter, when Li Hao played again to assist Caron Butler and hit a three-pointer from the bottom corner, LeBron James also took the initiative to confront him on the defensive end in the next round. It aroused heated discussions among many commentators.

This is not surprising at all.

In the duel between the two teams in this game, the duel between Li Hao and James was originally the most attractive point of view, from beginning to end.

…………

On the court, if it was a strategy for Li Hao to use some trash talk to provoke James at the beginning of the game, then now, Li Hao eliminated this strategy almost without any consideration.

Because the game has progressed so far, it can be called a needle-point confrontation, the two sides have already fought for absolute strength, and some other factors have long failed to achieve the purpose of interfering with the state of the game, especially for players like James, Li Hao is very worried. Be aware of this.

Therefore, at this moment, his heart has completely calmed down. From the very beginning, Li Hao understood that if the road to legend is smooth sailing, during this period, he will encounter too many opponents of all kinds .

"Lee, I admit that you are very strong, but so what, the whole of the United States has known me as LeBron James for at least 5 years. The Chosen One didn't just blow it out."

Another wave of offense from the Lakers. On the offensive end, when Li Hao faced James with the ball, unexpectedly, James said to Li Hao, and bowed with his whole body, making a defensive posture with all his strength.

"Ooh, Lee singles LeBron, interesting shot"

Li Hao's expression is very calm, because he knows what he will face next?He will face a very high intensity defense.

At the top of the arc in the front court, he took a tentative step forward with his right foot, and then immediately raised the basketball with his right hand to make a shot. Li Hao wanted to trick James into blocking the shot, but obviously, these tricks would not fool James .

Immediately afterwards, frowning, Li Hao retreated quickly with the ball, because James was suddenly approaching him. One thing, Li Hao was very prepared, that is, he must not have physical contact with James. He didn't think he could Get cheap in the case of physical contact with James.

"Lee, on the left, suddenly accelerated with the ball"

In the next second, Li Hao changed his right hand to his left hand, retreated a big cycle, took advantage of James' body inertia, and accelerated to the left of James, intending to use his peak speed to pass James.

"Snapped"

It is true that Li Hao's idea of ​​using speed to pass James was right, at least he managed to pass James in an instant, but he underestimated James' instant explosive power, so he was rewarded with a big hat by James.

Immediately afterwards, Varejao, who grabbed the rebound, handed the ball to McGinnis. The Cavaliers converted the attack, and James made a tank-like breakthrough layup that was unstoppable and hit.

"Oh, Lee's pass was predicted by LeBron in advance, LeBron completed the steal, and McGinnis also made a three-pointer from the top of the arc."

"2 defenses 1, Lee was defended by LeBron and Robert, this round he could hardly even touch the ball"

"On the Cavaliers' side, it was LeBron again. The breakthrough caused Lee to foul the ball and made two free throws."

"Look, the whole Quicken Loans Arena is boiling"

"LBL LBL LBL..."

"MVP MVP MVP..."

"MVP! MVP!"

"It's scary when LeBron James is completely out of control, it's unbelievable..."

"We all know how terrifying the Lakers No. [-] is when they are in a state of rampage, and we have all seen the horror of Dwyane Wade when he goes crazy, but obviously, now, the little emperor is doing the same thing"
