Chapter 203: Critical Moment Ability

Not deliberately chasing a winning streak is not a lack of strategy, and Larry Brown has prepared a plan that will adjust the lineup if the opponent is still so accurate in the second half. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

Lehi played the No. 4 position to defend Jamison, just like he did in the playoffs last season.

Now the team will be behind, and David Lee's poor defense of Jamison is also a problem, and David Lee is not as good as Channing Frye when it comes to interfering with outside shots.

In the second half, Lehi stepped up his offense, Butler couldn't guard him last season, and he can't guard him this season, and with Lehi attacking with all his might, there aren't many leagues that can limit him.

But the Wizards don't defend much at all, they just shoot from the outside, and Arenas and Jamison are still so good that they don't seem to need to play inside at all.

Seeing that the situation was not right, the Knicks started the rotation early and prepared for the small lineup.

Rotate the Knicks in advance to focus on Eddie Curry's interior line, and if they can destroy them with the inside, they will destroy them, if not, they will go to Gortat to play a small lineup, and in Eddie Curry's words, his fat body can't keep up at all.

Seven minutes into the third quarter, the Wizards threw in five more three-pointers.

If the Knicks in Lehi's rookie season were thrown like this, they would have collapsed long ago, but the current Knicks won't, but they are also 10 points behind.

However, the team has also made adjustments, replacing Eddie Curry, and the team has started to play a small lineup.

The Knicks' small lineup is still different from some teams, they don't give up defense, but they are better on the outside, faster on offense, and faster on the back.

And if the opponent throws so smoothly, they will fight hand-to-hand in defense, and it doesn't matter if they would rather break the game with a foul, just don't let the opponent shoot smoothly.

It's okay to get everyone to have no feeling, anyway, the Knicks have a lot of good breakthroughs and fouls.

After the Knicks made the change, the Wizards were immediately affected, and if a team with strong interior strength could be adjusted with an interior offense, it was just that their interior offense would not work at all.

By the end of the third quarter, the Wizards still had a nine-point lead, but things had changed.

Their response was to strengthen their defense with the Knicks, but their defensive system was not as strong as the Knicks, and it was only superficial.

"The fourth quarter of the game began, Lehi stood in the low post, Marbury passed the ball in, Lehi received the ball and turned around in one go, Butler did not stop the person and was squeezed under the basket by Lehi, only fouled.

"It's Lehi again, after Gortat covered him, he rushed to the inside in one step, Heywood didn't have time to stop it at all, Lehi was directly tyrannical to the basket, the speed was really fast."

"After Lehi broke through, he sent the ball directly to the side, and with tacit cooperation, Marbury rushed up to Jamison, causing a foul from the Wizards, and the Knicks were full of impact."

Under the strict defense, the shooting percentage of both teams dropped a lot, and at this time, the ability of several Knicks backcourt players to rush inside against the defenders was brought into play, which the Wizards could not do.

Jamison still wanted to go to the outside to shoot, but his speed couldn't get rid of Lehi at all, even if there was cover, Lehi would kill in an instant, Jamison's shot was not so fast.

With both shots disrupted twice, Jamison knew he couldn't shoot as much as he used to.

At 5:43, Lehi hit a two-pointer to tie the score, and the Wizards created a lead in the third quarter, and the Knicks pulled it back in the first half of the quarter.

Arenas was extremely unwilling, and at 4 minutes and 21 seconds, Arenas, who had added a breakthrough, played 2+1 on Marbury and overtook the score.

He screamed provocatively, and his fighting spirit was extremely high.

Lehi was also happy that in the course of the winning streak, an opponent like Arenas had not yet been encountered, and the light in his eyes was different.

He threw Butler head-on and threw the ball into the basket against the opposing defense.

The key is the next defense, when Arenas broke through and was about to make a quick stop jump shot, Lehi suddenly rushed up to the side and flew the ball out with a slap.

This kind of defensive judgment is something Arenas has never had.

When he saw Arenas' movements, he knew that the opponent's ball was about to be forced, and the position that Arenas broke through was also within the range of Lehi's defense, so he was tragic.

Li Hai went to the team's No. 4 position, originally a more important role is his defense, if it is an offense, whether Li Hai plays the No. 2 position or the No. 3 position, there is no problem, there is no need to appear on the inside for a small lineup.

Stopping the opponent's offense, Lehi turned around and sent another wonderful pass, Crawford hit a three-pointer, and the Knicks led 104-102 when it was almost three minutes.

Arenas tried another three-point shot, and this time Francis was in front and missed a three-point shot.

After Li Hai grabbed the rebound, he directly launched a fast attack, and successfully dunked two people in a row, and the advantage of 4 points was not much, but the last moment was enough to make the other party feel jealous.

The Wizards called a timeout, and Wizards head coach Eddie Jordan wanted the players on the court to calm down.

After returning to the court, the Wizards played a match, Arenas broke through and split the ball to Stevenson, only the latter's shot was interfered with by Marbury.

This time, the Wizards quickly retreated, and Lehi protected the rebound and handed it to Francis, and the Knicks are no longer in a hurry.

Neither side scored in the next two rounds, but time ran out.

Seeing that there was only a little more than one point left in the clock, the Wizards opted for foul tactics.

Lehi hit both free throws, the Knicks defended three points in defense, and Daniels, who had just been replaced to execute the tactics, received a pass from Butler and scored a layup, but now scoring two points had no effect at all.

112:106, this is the final score.

The Wizards fouled three times, and the Knicks hit all of them, firmly grasping the lead and winning their 14th straight game.

The winning streak may eventually be ended by one team, but the victory will have to be fought for one game at a time.

The game against the Wizards also verified the Knicks' ability to make key shots.

won the opponent by 15 points in the last quarter, which is simply a true portrayal of the usual ridicule, playing casually in the front, and finishing the game in the second quarter seriously.

And as the winning streak increases, the Knicks are getting closer and closer to their longest eighteen consecutive wins in team history, and in addition to the outside world talking about it, the Knicks' generals are also getting more and more concerned.

Although this situation is likely to backfire, it is not something that one or two people can control, and Lehi doesn't have so many ideas, just play well. (To be continued.) )
