Chapter 163: Ye Feng vs Andre Miller
The knight attacked again, James took the initiative to ask for the ball, and it was impossible for Ye Feng not to give him the ball, after all, James was in quite good shape before.
This time, Leitner didn't defend the three-point line again, but shrunk more than he did in the opening game, completely letting James shoot at will.
James didn't hesitate either, and threw with his hands open.
"Enter! Shoot these idiots from the Denver Plateau. ”
"I dared to let James shoot, I don't know if I am dead or alive."
"Beat them up!"
......
The Cleveland fans were thrilled, and James cheered as soon as he shot the ball, as if the goal had been scored.
However, Ye Feng frowned, as a shooter, he was very good at observing the shooting posture and arc, and used this to judge whether the ball could go in.
(Of course, Marion's bizarre shot, which is two meters above the shooting point, is something that no one can judge.) Ray Allen and Rodman probably couldn't read it. )
Ye Feng obviously sensed that the force used by this ball was too great.
Bang!
Sure enough, the basketball smashed into the back basket and bounced off.
Shooting can be practiced, but it is definitely not something that can be greatly improved overnight.
You may be lucky and hot and score a few goals, but you can't hit the same consistent shooting percentage as a pure shooter.
Anthony picked up the rebound and immediately handed it to Miller to launch a fast break.
Ye Feng stopped Miller and hindered the Nuggets' fast-break rhythm.
But the Nuggets, as well as Anthony and Leitner, can both tandem fast-breaks, and they can't be stopped by blocking Miller.
The Cavaliers' defense is not slow, in addition to Ye Feng, James, Dalius and Davis can all retreat, only Big Z is slightly slower.
But this has become the biggest problem for the Cavaliers' defense of fast breaks.
The reason is the presence of Nene, this guy is really fast, and has the ability to shoot, can also pass the ball, and is also a good hand in the fast break.
When he rushed to the Cavaliers' basket, Big Z was still far behind.
Although the Cavaliers had four people retreating, none of the four could stop such a big man.
Even James, who is physically strong enough, is helpless in the face of an inside monster like Nene, not to mention that Nene has already rushed up, and the impact is not inferior to James at all.
After making a pass feint, Nene exploded and smashed the basketball into the basket in front of Darius and James.
Syllable!
Honk~
At the same time as the goal was scored, the referee's whistle blew and James fouled the player.
Nene managed to hit a 2+1.
Cleveland fans were in an uproar, complaining about the referee's blowing penalty and expressing dissatisfaction.
But the fact is that James' foul action is very obvious, and the referee can't help the Cavaliers even if he wants to.
Nene hit a free throw, and the score became 8-9, and the Nuggets took the lead.
But Ye Feng felt that it was getting worse and worse, this was not a normal James.
Strictly speaking, James is the youngest player on this Cavaliers team, and he happens to be the calmest guy. At least it's much more rational than Ye Feng, who is a soldier.
But just now, knowing that he couldn't stop Nene, he still had to stop him.
This is not positive, professional players know that in the face of some attacks, since they can't be stopped, it is better to simply let the opponent score, than to lose points and foul.
James was a little uncool tonight, which is not his usual style.
The offense and defense switched, and James continued to play.
"Rookie, cast!"
Leitner directly put James to throw, and also provoked unscrupulously.
James frowned, but he also knew what level his three-point shot was, and he obviously sensed a bad hand in the last shot, so he didn't shoot a three-point shot directly.
After a slight hesitation, James chose to thrust in.
And his choice made Leitner smile successfully, and the head coach of the Nuggets nodded with satisfaction.
One step inside the three-point line, Leitner finally pressed up.
James made a crossover, crushed Leitner with his body, and successfully wiped it out.
But after that, Anthony had already leaned over and blocked James' breakthrough route.
The breakthrough was blocked, and James could only take a step back to adjust the rhythm and then break through from the other side.
But on that side, Nene was also prepared.
"Rookie, break through! Why, I didn't dare to shoot the basketball, and I didn't dare to break through? ”
Leitner provoked unscrupulously.
Nuggets head coach Bouzderrick has been prepared for a long time, and in the face of James' breakthrough, Leitner alone cannot be prevented. So he arranged for Leitner to shrink, and then Anthony and Nene flanked the defense, just to keep James from getting to the basket.
A hint of fierceness flashed on James's face, no matter who was provoked, it would not be comfortable.
But instead of fighting back with his mouth, James continued to play.
However, many breakthroughs were made, but no results were achieved, and time passed like this second by second.
"James, time is running out."
Ye Feng had to remind James.
Looking up, 20 seconds had passed in the time shift, James hastily handed over the ball, and Davis made a last-minute hurried shot that missed.
Soon, halfway through the first quarter, the score was 16:11.
The Nuggets were organized by Miller, and Anthony and Nene took turns firing at the two dominant points.
However, because of James's sticky ball, the Cavaliers have made hasty shots many times, and the offensive efficiency is not high.
The difference tended to be widened, and Paul could only call a timeout.
"James, you have to share the ball more! Didn't you notice? The Nuggets are targeting you, and your teammates have more opportunities. As soon as you get the chance, give the ball to your teammates. Basketball is a five-person sport, don't you understand? ”
Paul's slashing was a reprimand, and a brief pause did not allow him to remind.
"Yes!"
James was not in a good mood, but nodded in agreement.
He gave it his all tonight and did everything he could on the offensive end. On the defensive end, he is even more hand-to-hand with Anthony, and he is still making up for various defenses. But the team is falling behind, how can he be happy?
He also knew that basketball was a five-man sport, but he just wanted to lead the team to victory over Anthony's team.
Time flies, and the pause ends.
Players from both sides are back on the pitch.
James walked with his head down, only to find a large hand on his shoulder.
It's the leaf wind.
"Hey, James!"
Ye Feng pinched the muscles on James' shoulders vigorously, and the force was so great that James couldn't help but gasp.
"What?"
James shook off Ye Feng's hand angrily, and it was uncomfortable for anyone to be pinched like this.
"Can I be a part of the victory over Anthony?"
Ye Feng ignored James's unhappy face and said directly.
“.......”
James looked surprised, he didn't expect that his thoughts were actually noticed by Ye Feng.
But soon, the expression on James' face changed to displeasure again.
"Do you think I'm inferior to him? And it's between me and him, and I don't need anyone else's help. ”
James refused.
"Your business?"
Ye Feng took advantage of James's defenselessness and attacked James's chest muscles again, causing James to keep baring his teeth.
"You're my teammate, how can I watch you fight alone, isn't it possible that you don't treat me as a teammate? Also, don't forget, I'm also a rookie with you, and Anthony is my opponent too! And it's not a fight between you and Anthony either, it's a fight between the entire Cavaliers and the Nuggets. ”
Ye Feng didn't wait for James to break out, and said directly.
“.......”
James was stunned, not knowing what to say or what to think.
Ye Feng continued to ignore it, and directly stretched out his fist and put it on James's chest, letting James choose.
Promised, fist bump, let's fight together!
If you don't agree, you won't see it, and we'll fight on our own!
