Chapter 836: Unsatisfactory
Meng Xu shook the layups after James and Bosh one after another, so that the Heat fans on the scene forgot to boo Meng Xu, and even some spectators applauded after Meng Xu's layup, but this is a minority after all, and when James held the ball on the offensive end against Meng Xu, the American Airlines Arena immediately erupted in a burst of warm cheers and applause, because they were all looking forward to James completing an anser-ball in front of Meng Xu!
Of course, Meng Xu also thinks so, so after James received a pass from Mario Chanmos, Meng Xu immediately appeared in front of James, James is very familiar with Meng Xu, and Meng Xu is also very familiar with James, so when defending James, Meng Xu deliberately kept a certain distance from James and did not press him closely, James has been gaining weight in recent seasons, and now the block is basically the No. 3 position, the weight has come up, and the confrontation ability has been enhanced. But the speed of initiation will inevitably be affected, and James' three-point ability has always been average, so the best strategy to defend James is to defend his breakthrough and let him shoot.
Of course, Meng Xu let James shoot, not to ignore James's shot, to let him have a big vacancy, and let James shoot casually, but to let James have enough space to let him complete the jump, and then interfere with him in the process of James's shot.
James is aware of his three-point ability, so even if Meng Xu left him plenty of space, James has no intention of shooting outside the three-point line, not to shoot in an empty position, and not to shoot until the last resort, which are the two primary conditions for James to shoot three points, so in the face of Meng Xu's defense, James's first choice is to break through.
However, in the face of Meng Xu's defense, James's tank breakthrough has no room to play, because Meng Xu's physical fitness is known for his toughness, and James is also more afraid of those muscle stick defensive players, plus the attempt after the opening just now, so James directly gave up his best way to break through, James knows that without a little technical content and high difficulty, it is difficult to get rid of Meng Xu's defense.
After slapping the basketball twice on the spot, James suddenly started, after taking a step and being blocked by Meng Xu in advance, James also learned the moves when Meng Xu broke through just now, after Meng Xu quickly turned around, sideways to Meng Xu, and hit the back twice in a row, James turned around again and forcibly broke through, in the case of skills and agility are not as good as Meng Xu, James has to give full play to his strength and confrontation ability.
Although James is very similar to the back turn and breakthrough action that Meng Xu used just now in this attack, but the feeling of the two people is completely different, although Meng Xu's physical fitness is also top-notch, but Meng Xu pays more attention to technique and skill when he turns his back to break through, continuous turning, and feints up and down his body are not something that ordinary people can do, unlike Meng Xu, the technical content of James's back turn is not so high, it is completely relying on the crushing violence flow of physical talent, Even when turning around and breaking through, it will give people a slightly stiff feeling.
After turning his back twice in a row, James hit Meng Xu's chest hard when he forcibly turned around, and then James took advantage of Meng Xu's time when he was hit by himself and took half a step back, and took advantage of the situation to wipe it from Meng Xu's side.
Meng Xu, who was passed by James, did not chase James, but quickly ran in the direction of Haslem, because Meng Xu knew that after James broke through himself, Duncan and Thiago Split would definitely make up for themselves, at this time Meng Xu was chasing over, and the Spurs' defense line would definitely be messed up, so Meng Xu rushed directly to Haslem to prepare for Thiago Split's change of defense in advance.
Although James struggled to get rid of Meng Xu's defense through a series of actions, Eric Spoelstra, who was standing on the sidelines, didn't even have a look of joy at all, but frowned, looking at James who was still rushing towards the basket, because Eric Spoelstra knew that after getting rid of Meng Xu, James was already at the end of the crossbow, and after he rushed to the basket, he would also have to face Tim Duncan, so when James and Meng Xu began to face each other directly, Eric Spoelstra frowned the whole time, because he could clearly feel that he had fallen into Popovich's trap.
Before the start of this game, the reason why Eric Spoelstra arranged James to the No. 4 position was to avoid Meng Xu's edge, because West Durant, who was on par with James, was almost locked by Meng Xu in the first game of the Western Conference Finals, and in the later games, as long as Durant and Meng Xu were opposed, his performance would be greatly reduced, so in order to allow James to release his ability on the offensive end, Eric Spoelstra not only did not let James defend Meng Xu, also asked James to play the No. 4 position to avoid Meng Xu's defense, but now, James is entangled with Meng Xu again, so his intuition tells Eric Spoelstra that he is on Popovich's path.
Really come what you want, after James got rid of Meng Xu's defense, he didn't take two steps before he met Duncan, who was making up for the defense, and James, who had no strength to break through Duncan's defense, could only pass the basketball to the outside with a little unwillingness and handed it to Mario Chammos, but after some entanglement between James and Meng Xu and Duncan, the 24-second offensive time was almost consumed, so Mario Chammos, who received James's pass, could only throw the basketball in his hand like a hot potato, Thrown to the basket.
With the sound of "Bang", the basketball thrown by Mario Chanmos smashed to the front of the basket and rebounded, and the backcourt rebound was taken into the arms of Thiago Split, and the audience at the American Airlines Arena also made a sound of regret after Mario Chanmos shot the iron.
James vs. Meng Xu, the duel between the first people in the two generations of the league, Meng Xu scored a goal that made all the spectators enthusiastic under James' defense, and after Meng Xu scored, almost all the spectators were waiting for this James to shoot back at Meng Xu's goal, and with an anser-ball, the duel between the two people was pushed to a high CHAO, but the final result was obviously a little unsatisfactory.
