Chapter 217 217, evenly matched

In the second quarter of the game, Cheng Lei's appearance played a certain role in restricting Anthony, but it only played a role, and wanting to completely restrict Anthony was tantamount to a fool's dream.

Thanks to the good touch, the Rockets ended the first half of the game after being hit by a three-pointer from Sessions at the end.

"Capela, you need to be tough!" Harden said to Khan.

In this game, Capela still gave Porzingis a lot of opportunities to shoot easily, although some were unavoidable, and if Capela was stronger, it might shock Porzingis and make him not so careless.

"When you play, you should use your brains more, don't blindly do it!" Coach D'Antoni began the first half summary.

"Just now everyone said Capella, let's take Capella as a column, Porzingis's height and arm span are above you, you let him turn around smoothly and face the frame, didn't you send him to the strong place!"

If you want to defend against Porzingis, the main thing is to make him not easily turn around and attack, even if he turns around, he can't be too comfortable.

"Do you know how LeBron defended Yao Ming before?" D'Antoni suddenly asked rhetorically.

Seeing Capela looking at himself, he said slowly: "Keep going around the front and don't let him catch the ball!" ”

In the same way, as long as Porzingis is not allowed to receive the ball easily, then naturally his threat will decrease.

Capela patted his head, how could he have done this, dealing with people who are taller than himself, whose tonnage is not as big as himself, and it is the best choice to defend around the front.

"Ray, in the second half, try to limit Anthony, the others, keep an eye on Anthony's passing movement at all times, don't let him pass the ball easily! Do you understand? ”

"Understood, Coach!"

At the moment, the crowd in the stands outside is constantly carnivaling, today the Knicks performed perfectly, Anthony played the role of a leader, and everyone saw the desire to win from him.

In the Knicks' lounge, everyone was full of momentum, and judging from the first half, their team could compete with the Rockets.

"In this game, we will win!" Anthony motivates everyone that he doesn't want to lose at home to his good friend Paul in this game.

"Wow, the Knicks are so strong today!" Inside the bubble tea shop, Wu Chunlei said with a look of disbelief.

"yes, I may not have seen such a tough Knicks in a long time, and Anthony today feels very dangerous!" Hicks nodded.

"In fact, as long as the Rockets stick to their style of play, they won't necessarily lose to the Knicks." Wu Chunlei said.

"Hmm," Hicks nodded in agreement.

At halftime, players from both sides returned to the field.

The third quarter of the game began, and as soon as it came up, it was the Rockets' possession.

As soon as the Rockets came up, they showed their rhythm, still playing fast, after Paul passed the half, Harden ran back, and Anderson, who was ambushed in the bottom corner, had a good shot.

Paul broke through, made a long pass and gave the ball to Anderson.

At this time, the defender was still two meters away from Anderson, opened his hand, hit a three-pointer, and the two sides were on the same running line again.

On the Knicks' side, Anthony is still the axis, and the offense around Anthony is arranged.

However, this time, Anthony did not choose to attack, but dribbled the ball outside the three-point line, looking for opportunities, Porzingis played in the direction of the free throw line, and Capela this time, clinging to Porzingis, not going around in front of him, arching him with his fart-thigh.

The other players did not run out of effective opportunities under the Rockets' tight defense, and Anthony could only choose to attack on his own.

After quickly doing two crotch dribbles, he started directly, dribbled with his right hand, and cut towards the inside.

Seeing Anthony start, Capela was even more unlikely to give Porzingis a chance, and he went around the front with a tough one and firmly blocked Porzingis behind him with a fart-thigh.

"Anthony, you don't have a chance!" Cheng Lei didn't pop out a trash word at Anthony yet.

The corners of Anthony's mouth twitched, and he suddenly reduced the speed of dribbling, glanced at Cheng Lei, and when Cheng Lei also stood still, Anthony suddenly accelerated in disguise and passed past Cheng Lei's side.

Cheng Lei also reacted quickly and quickly followed, Anthony was another large disguise, the speed did not decrease, and during the march, a high-arc throw.

"Rookie, if you want to prevent me, you still have a lot to learn!" After the goal, Anthony did not forget to complain about Cheng Lei.

"Today's Anthony is like a god descending from heaven, he really can't prevent it!" D'Antoni sighed.

This situation happened to Kobe Bryant back then, and the best defensive player in the league can put Kobe's score below 20 points, which is considered a success.

Anthony has been like this for a few years, and in the third quarter of the game, the score has gone to more than 20 points.

After several head-to-head encounters with Anthony, Cheng Lei also knows that although he is faster than Anthony in terms of speed, Anthony's experience and basic skills are indeed very solid, and there is always a way to deal with the ball.

In this case, Cheng Lei also understands that he can only fight with the Knicks to attack, and the defense has been done to the extreme, and it cannot prevent Anthony from cutting points.

"Brother Deng, let's go!" On the offensive end, Cheng Lei took the initiative to help Harden make a block, and Harden ran back and received a pass.

As a superstar in the league, Harden's offense is naturally difficult to restrict, two steps and a small wave, three steps and a big shake, looking slow, but hitting the basket.

With one European step, the Knicks' players could only watch Harden hit the ball in.

Porzingis was entangled like Kraft candy by Capela, and this time, he simply stood directly outside the three-point line, and Capela would not have chased him like this.

As a tall player, Porzingis is also very confident in his outside ability.

Directly reached out to ask for the ball, after taking the ball, in the face of Capella, who took two steps back to defend himself, Porzingis tried Capela with a false look, and saw that he had no intention of pounced to defend, and directly pulled up a three-point.

The ball went into the basket safely.

Porzingis' excellent performance last season also gave Zhou Qi of the Rockets a good inspiration, the two play the same style, but Porzingis is more confident and more decisive.

The center pulls out and shoots three-pointers, and it is basically impossible to defend it.

The two sides played like this, and the game soon entered the final quarter.

The time has come to fight for bayonets, and if that team is discouraged first, it will definitely lose.

"Defend, defend, defend!" When the Rockets were attacking, the Knicks fans consciously shouted.

"This ball, try to defend the rocket!" Anthony yelled, and the first to bear the brunt of it was to switch positions with Courtney Lee and take the initiative to defend Harden.
