Chapter Fifty-Eight: The Small Forward Killer

At this time, LeBron really had an urge to kill.

I actually let Horn show off, I'm a superstar, Horn is a player who has just risen, but now I actually let him show off, LeBron is unwilling to think about it.

But after Horn scored, immediately, he came over for the first time to prevent LeBron from receiving the ball, and blocked LeBron in front of him.

LeBron was so annoyed by Horn that he wanted to kill himself, and he immediately pointed to the sky and asked Battier to pass him a high ball.

Battier threw the ball high, and Horn did not jump as high as LeBron, but LeBron needed to waste time to catch the ball in the air.

At the first moment when LeBron landed, Horn and Ariza pounced on LeBron together.

LeBron relied on his strong body to hold down Horn and Ariza, and then a wide shift shifted the basketball to Battier's hands.

Battier tried to protect the basketball, but the Hornets wouldn't give him the chance, and Collison rushed over to interfere with Battier. When Battier finally passed the ball to Wade, the Heat's offensive time was running out, and Wade still missed the shot.

Today's Heat was beaten by the Hornets without rhythm, and the Hornets grabbed the rebound in the backcourt to the Heat's half.

The Heat also wanted to break the ball directly on the strong side like the Hornets, but at this time Paul's flexible surname was reflected. Paul carried the ball, with two defenders on the sideline, kept dribbling, kept crotching, and the Heat just couldn't steal the ball.

When Paul is in possession of the ball, it is really difficult to steal him. After a long unsuccessful steal, LeBron directly forced a steal, and Paul immediately shouted directly with color and threw the ball to deceive LeBron with a foul.

LeBron was extremely unhappy before, and now he was deceived into a foul, and suddenly yelled at the referee angrily.

LeBron was a superstar, and the referee didn't dare to blow him for a technical foul, but he upheld the original decision. Paul stood at the free throw line and made 2 free throws, the Hornets successfully defended the Heat, and the morale of the whole team was high.

At this time, Charles Barkley said: "Now the Hornets have an absolute advantage, and Horne has contributed a lot to LeBron's defense!" As you can imagine, Spoccola must have given LeBron more control over the tempo before, but Horn prevented LeBron from getting the ball smoothly and completed a good defense against LeBron. Horn's scoring during this period is not much, but it is crucial for the team's contribution. ”

Kenny Smith has a positive opinion on the old partner's opinion: "Horne's defense of LeBron during this period of time is indeed a key point for the Hornets to continue to attack, and without Horn's defense of LeBron, the Heat would have stabilized the situation long ago. ”

"It's hard for Durant to play Thunder Horn's defense, and now LeBron for Horn to defend is very uncomfortable, which shows that Horn's defensive ability is very powerful against small forwards or players who don't care!"

Chris Webber also came to his senses at this time and said: "It's true that Horn has the height and speed, and when defending small forwards, he has the height and confrontation advantage. This is that Durant and LeBron James are also difficult to deal with! ”

Horne stopped LeBron's catch and became the biggest contributor to the Hornets on the defensive end.

Now the outcome of the game almost hangs on whether Horn can continue to make LeBron uncomfortable, and the Heat haven't played a good position for too long.

Horn still didn't let LeBron get the ball, and Wade could only take the initiative to retreat to help Chalmers control the basketball.

The two brought the ball to the frontcourt, and the Heat also wanted to stabilize it at this time, so they deliberately designed a passing tactic for LeBron.

The Heat used the strength of the team to finally let LeBron receive the ball, and Horn defended in place as soon as LeBron received the ball, standing in front of LeBron.

LeBron was extremely hot defended by Horn in the previous few rounds, and now that he finally got the ball, LeBron wanted to beat Horn to death with a stick. In the depths of his heart, LeBron still looks down on Horn and feels that he will be able to beat Horn with one force, so LeBron faces Horn with a crotch dribble, and suddenly changes direction to give Horn over.

Horn is not too much inferior to LeBron in terms of speed, he immediately stopped LeBron with a horizontal step, LeBron did not pass Horn in this step, and he also keenly felt that he couldn't play like this, so he immediately dribbled and turned around, protected the basketball and then wanted to eat Horn with his back.

LeBron won't be attacking with his back this season, and he used his strength to force Horn twice, but the top was not on the spot at all.

Having power and being able to use power are two things, LeBron will not use the power of the low post at this time, and there is no collision in two steps, he can only take a break and turn around and pass the ball to Chalmers who ran out.

Horn defended LeBron again, and this time the eyes of the Heat players widened.

Horn successfully defended LeBron head-on twice in a row, which is still a very confident and murderous LeBron. Horn's defensive ability really shows.

Wade also saw on the side at this time that Horn's defensive ability must not be ignored, and now the Heat need to take some measures against Horn if they want to win.

Chalmers missed a layup, and the Hornets defended successfully.

At this time, Kenny Smith said with a shocked face: "Horn is definitely not a Durant killer, but a small forward killer!" LeBron doesn't have a good way to take Horn right now, and Horn's height and speed are too lethal for a small forward. “

"If the opponent shoots, Horn has a height advantage, if the opponent breaks through Horn's speed is not bad and the defense is experienced, if the opponent plays the low post, Horn's strength and small forward ratio are okay! Horn is a tough fortress to conquer in that sense! ”

Charles Barkley was also amazed by Horn's defensive ability at this time.

Horn has almost become a small forward killer at the moment, and when it comes to the Heat's half, Horn is still running and pulling Battier to run with him.

Horn played Battier with too much height advantage, so Horn squeezed directly to the basket, and Paul immediately came in with a pass.

Horn dribbled a step in the low post and squeezed into the offensive position at once. At this position, when the Heat immediately contracted, Horn turned back and passed the ball to Ariza on the outside, and Ariza made a direct three-pointer.

Horn stopped the opponent's core on the defensive end, and the offensive end also became the offensive starting point, and the pressure on the Heat was completely out of breath, and the point difference was getting bigger and bigger.

The Heat came with the mentality of a strong team, and they couldn't adapt to this huge gap for a while, and the first quarter was bigger and worse, and there was no level and mentality of a strong team at all. At the end of the first quarter, the Hornets actually led the Heat by 17 points at 36:19.
