Chapter 650: Prospect First Man
On the offensive end of the Hawks, after Dragic held the ball over the half court, he immediately sent the ball to Ruan Er Niu in the horn position, and Joe Smith did not dare to be careless, and immediately raised the position to defend the Celestial Empire who was 45 degrees high.

Ruan Erniu held the ball with his back, chiseled two steps back, and before the bag came, he turned over and leaned back, and made a jump shot~~
Hit!
Resolutely and fluently shot, there is no meaning of dragging mud and water.
The Cavaliers launched a counterattack, and James still chose to break through the basket in the frontcourt.
This is the moment to test the superstar's quality, and James forced his hand under the bag of Erniu and Anderson.
The basketball rested on the front of the basket and missed!
Salmons grabbed the rebound and passed to Dragic, who immediately carried the ball to the frontcourt.
"This way!"
The eclipse from the back received a pass from Dragic, raised one arm high, and wanted to attack the basket directly, but Pavlovic smashed the bottom line with a palm from the side.
There was an obvious foul on a beater, but the referee didn't blow it and just put the ball in the hands of the Eagles.
Nguyen Er Niu took the baseline serve from Murray and faced Ben Wallace's defense in the corner position.
This time Erniu chose to turn around directly, and after passing the worrying state of the competition, Erniu jumped high and used a double-arm basket to close the score for the eagles again.
The Eagles played tenaciously and did everything they could to catch up with the deficit even when the penalty scale was unfavorable.
The Clevelands, who can be second in the East, are also tenacious enough in the crucial G3.
Mo Williams and re-entered Delonte West contributed three points in succession, while James also continued to implement his strategy of making kills under the strong basket, hitting the basket in a row to extend the score advantage for the Cavaliers again.
Strong confrontation, only the side that is more calm can win.
The Hawks closed the score three times in the second quarter, and the Cavaliers also pulled the score away three times.
The Hawks ushered in the longest tug-of-war since the start of the 08-09 playoffs, and they were torn apart from the second quarter of the game.
It is the adversity that can hone the tenacity and tenacity of a superstar and even a team.
Just like the series between the Lakers and the Rockets, although everyone is not optimistic that the Houstonians can advance, the space city just refuses to admit defeat and implements the cockroach-like spirit to the end, and the result is beyond most people's expectations.
After many tug-of-wars, the Hawks gradually calmed down their emotions, and they were originally the stronger team.
Even if the referee's blow was once severe, again, such a home whistle could not have lasted throughout the game.
At the end of the second quarter, some of the audience left their seats to go to the toilet or buy popcorn, and the Atlantans, who had been suppressed for half the game, ushered in an outburst.
First, Ruan Erniu hit two three-pointers in a row at the top of the three-point line, and then the Hawks seized the opportunity to defend and counterattack and launched a fast attack.
The Salmon caught the ball and hit a crucial three-pointer.
It was also the Hawks' last half-time attack, and with James missing a long-range three-point shot, the G3 first-half contest came to an end.
With the Hawks playing a 9-2 attack wave at the end of the second quarter, the Atlanta Hawks ended the entire first half with 50-52, two points behind the Cavaliers.
James hit just five of his 16 shots in the half, but with a 9-of-9 shooting percentage, he still shot more than 50 percent from the field.
Objectively speaking, Salmons, who had three fouls on his back, did a good job, scoring 19 points, 4 rebounds, and 3 assists, and James did not lead the Cleveland Cavaliers to knock the Hawks to the ground at home at one time.
Ruan Erniu made 12 of 18 shots, including 2 of 4 three-pointers and 3 of 3 free throws, and scored 29 points, 12 rebounds and 3 assists in the half.
Among them, the Celestial Empire contributed 21 points, 7 rebounds, and 1 assist in the second quarter of the game.
21 points in a single quarter, second only to the 22-point scoring record in a single quarter of the playoffs set by Erniu in the previous round.
This is by no means good news for Clevelands.
Once Kraft Nguyen goes on a rampage like he did in the last round of G1, I'm afraid no one on the court will be able to stop him.
Although the spark has been completely blown up by Erniu, on a large scale, he is the league's leading interior defender after all, and even he was beaten by the explosive bull, and there is no existence in the Cavaliers team that can compete with him.
Ilgoskas' bounce can be counted in a matchbox, Ben Wallace has declined to the point of playing soy sauce, and as for Joe Smith, he has never lived up to his top talent even without that infamous yin-yang contract.
The one who can really form a little defensive effect against Erniu is probably Anderson Vallejo.
The samba actor can fly down once, twice, three times, but he can't fall four, five, six times, and the referee Dan Crawford is also a face-saving person, his acting skills are so exaggerated, how can he award you the best actor?
The intermission time passed in a flash.
Ruan Erniu, who played almost the second quarter, continued to start in the third quarter, and Yu Yusen, who was carrying three fouls, also returned to the game.
As soon as he got on the court, he showed the most positive posture, first hitting a 19-foot pull-up shot, and then on the counterattack, he broke through to a layup and drew a foul on Delonte West.
Embarrassment made 2 of 2 free throws at the free throw line, and in this game, the Hawks took the lead for the first time since 1:07 of the opening game.
On the TNT commentary bench, Charles Barker said in a mocking tone: "If the Hawks end up winning this game, I don't think anyone will ever say that James is the first person in the league after that, whether it is now or in the future." ”
However, Kenny Smith on the side disagreed: "No, James is still a good contender for the first place, but the Hawks are indeed the better team. ”
Reggie Miller immediately retorted: "If you are reversed by your opponent to win when the blowing penalty is obviously biased, this first person is too cheap."
Superstars are played, not blown out of mouths, am I going out on the street and saying that Barkley is far better than Jordan, and Charles is the first man in the league?"
Barkley smiled and said, "Reggie, are you talking about DeAndre Jordan? I admit, I'm really much better than him! Also, I said earlier, I'm really the best player on this planet, because everyone should know that Michael Jordan is a Martian!"
At this, the three TNT commentators burst into laughter again.
However, the Cavaliers did their best tonight, and they didn't give up on the game either.
Even if they were reversed, they did not have any panic, on the contrary, in the third quarter, James, West, and Ilgoskas teamed up to bite the score for the Cavaliers.
The unprovoked Hawks in the third quarter did not play a wave in the time period they were used to, and even with the bias of the referees, the persistence shown by the Cavaliers was equally admirable.
At 86:80, the Hawks will enter the final quarter with a six-point advantage, which is not enough to give them peace of mind.
Ruan Erniu has scored 45 points, 19 boards, and 4 assists in the third quarter, while LeBron James's 30 points, 7 boards, and 6 assists are also the highest on the team.
