The third quarter ended at halftime.

Li Wei re-sent the starting five Tigers, Ward, Houston, Garnett, Oakley, and Big Z.

The 76ers' starting center did not play, and he was replaced by substitute Scott Williams. This person is 2.08 meters tall, graduated from the University of North Carolina, is Jordan's younger brother, and is also one of the members of the Bulls' first three-peat.

As soon as the opening stanza began, Scott Williams made a pick-and-roll for Iverson, then turned around and covered Jim Jackson.

Jim Jackson took the ball and threw it, made a two-point shot, and went into the net crisply.

At 43:62, the 76ers recovered two points!

The Knicks attacked, the 76ers strengthened their defense against Garnett, and one of Ward's passes was stealed by Stackhouse, who suddenly rushed out.

Li Wei frowned, knowing that this was Old Man Larry Brown's change of formation.

After a 15-minute halftime break, the 76ers' offense and defense were finally straightened out by Brown. This time in defense, he deliberately dug a pit for Ward to jump!

Since you have changed, I have changed, Li Wei immediately made a gesture and told the players on the field to implement the second plan!

Brown was not idle at halftime, and Li Wei was not idle, and after chatting with Xie Siqi for a few words, he came back to arrange tactics.

The Knicks' second plan is, of course, prepared for the 76ers to change the lineup, if the 76ers do not change, then the Knicks will definitely continue to play in the first half, and now that others have changed, the Knicks will also change!

You can't be beaten passively!

Defensively, the Knicks switched to the No. 62 defensive plan, which is more balanced, focusing on the defense of outsiders without the ball, which can better limit Jim Jackson and Stackhouse, but will not easily contain the ball-carrier. If Iverson is determined to play alone, then Charlie Ward will have to ask for a lot of blessings.

There are no perfect tactics in the world, there are only the most suitable tactics, and Li Wei and Daley are betting that Iverson will not make singles a priority.

Because he was pinched by the Knicks for a while in the first half, Iverson really didn't have any plans to play alone, and he still had to save his physical strength until the fourth quarter!

The 76ers are not the Knicks, 12 people take turns to play, each of them plays for more than 20 minutes, and no one is tired. As the absolute main force, Iverson's playing time is 40 minutes, and he must retain his physical strength!

Besides, Larry Brown didn't arrange for him to play singles either!

After the answer broke through, Starhouse answered on the outside, Garnett chased after the defense, and Starhouse's shot was a little hasty, iron!

Oakley defends rebounds, and Knicks offense.

The 76ers continued the defensive strategy just now, trying to strangle Garnett and Charlie Ward, especially on Garnett's side, obviously burying another pass trap, just waiting for others to pass over and grab it!

Unexpectedly, after Garnett covered in Houston, he did not cut outside to receive the ball as usual, but turned around and cut inside and wiped it inside!

On the other side, a big man received a pass, and it was Big Z!

The first tactic of Li Wei's second plan is to let Garnett bluff and attract the 76ers' key defense, but he is actually not the organizational core of this tactic, and the ball is to be handed over to Big Z to handle!

Big Z is the center of this tactic, replacing Garnett's usual position!

European centers are good at playmaking, such as Sabonis and Divac, whose passing awareness is comparable to that of a point guard.

Big Z's organizational response ability can only be said to be average, and it can't be compared with those two perverts at all. But he is also a man who has been trained in European basketball, and it is not a problem to carry out the normal task at all.

As soon as he received the ball, Big Z found an opportunity, and Garnett, who wiped into the inside, shook off Stackhouse in a position.

He threw the ball forward, originally intended to pass it to Garnett, but in a little hurry, the ball turned out to be high!

Garnett didn't expect Big Z's ball to pass so high, so he had no choice but to take a step forward and jump high!

His long arm finally caught the ball, and the whole person flew another section due to inertia, and the basket was in front of him!

At this time, Witherspoon, a 76ers big forward who was pulled to the side by Oakley, hurriedly returned to the defensive basket, but unfortunately it was too late. Garnett rode Witherspoon and came with a shocking one-handed slam!

"Beautiful!" The two commentators shouted in unison!

Garnett's slam dunk is so beautiful!

Because Big Z's pass was too high, Garnett's arms were also extraordinarily stretched when he received the ball, and then there was a long stay in the air, and a chic blow split Huashan!

Even better, Witherspoon came back neither too early nor too late, just in the background for Garnett's dunk, making it full of dunk color!

There was a deafening scream at Madison Square Garden, and they were cheering on Garnett together!

"Yummy!" Xie Siqi also stood up and applauded!

At 43:64, the Knicks lead!

Mike Brin said: "It's so handsome, it's definitely the top 10 of the week!" ”

Fraser said: "Rush this ball and the Madison Garden crowd will be worth the ticket price!" ”

Kevin Garnett didn't expect the ball to catch and dunk, and after landing, he beat his chest and roared!

Oakley ran over and high-fived him!

The players on the bench also stood up!

"Well done, Kevin!" Li Wei said loudly.

Because the team has experienced 21 consecutive defeats, so this big score lead, the home atmosphere is still a little tepid, Garnett's goal, let the audience completely ignite!

The big screen at the scene began to play Garnett's dunk, and nearly 20,000 viewers cheered Garnett's name together!

“KG！ KG！ KG！ ”

"It's so beautiful!" Big Z congratulates Garnett in English.

"Next time it's lower, I can't guarantee that I'll get it every time!" Garnett said loudly.

"I see." Big Z smiled.

To be honest, this ball does have to thank Big Z for not passing well enough, otherwise Garnett wouldn't have been able to dunk so well even if he dunked. A lot of incredible air catches are forced out by the scum passing skills of teammates!

The 76ers attacked again, and the Knicks took over Li Wei's arrangement in the middle court and switched to the No. 63 defensive plan.

Plan 62 will have a small gap in the process of rotating on the weak side. Although the 76ers failed to take advantage of this gap in the last round, they must have found out.

It's best not to use the same move twice in a row, otherwise the opponent will easily catch your flaws. After the Knicks' change of move this time, the four defensive schemes are rotated, and there are many paradoxical points between each other, and the opponent's offensive routine cannot be the same every time, so it is still difficult to identify the changes.

In this round, Iverson still didn't play by himself, but passed to Stackhouse, who then dropped the ball to the inside!

It seems that they also know that the Knicks' defensive focus is on the 76ers' three-shot shots from the outside, so they want to open up the situation from the inside!

The Pacers crossed the line with two interior bases, and finally Witherspoon received the ball and shot from the center!

Oakley was blocked by Scott Williams and couldn't catch up, so Big Z immediately made up for it!

Although Big Z is a little far away from Witherspoon, the two are 1.98 meters and the other is 2.21 meters, and the height difference is too big. Witherspoon was afraid of eating his hat, so he was in a hurry, and he shot a little fast, and then the ball was a little stronger, and the basket bounced out!

Oakley took the rebound and lost it to Charlie Ward, who immediately made a long pass to Alan Houston who rushed forward!

Jim Jackson's defense was a step slower, and Houston was quick to dunk after receiving the ball!

At 43:66, the Knicks continue to lead!
