Chapter 487: Single Section Score Record
The Knicks attacked again, Chen Jiyuan and Sessions once again blocked and dismantled, this time Zajunas Ilgoskas successfully blocked Sessions, and then Mo Williams caught up with Sessions very quickly, so that Sessions was not able to rush into the interior, so naturally he could not create a good offensive opportunity for Chen Jiyuan.
Chen Jiyuan retreated outside the three-point line in the high post, Sessions moved to near the bottom corner, and then passed the ball to Stephen Jackson, who was waiting for the ball in the bottom corner, Stephen Jackson was definitely not a good chance when he received the ball, because James was concentrating on defense in front of him at this time, you know, James's defense is still quite strong.
This year, although James was not the best defensive player, he made the All-Defensive team as a small forward. In a way, this is a disguised way of saying that James is one of the five most defensive players in the league. Although this statement is not so fair, James's defensive strength is absolutely unquestionable, when James wants to defend. No one can please them. James has the league's absolute top physique. James has the strongest body in the league, as well as the speed and body that is not lost to point guards, these are the foundations of James' defense end. At home, James has absolutely good defensive awareness, and that's where the opponent gets a headache. Some players have the physical qualities to become first-class defensive players, but on the one hand, they are not willing to defend personally, and on the other hand, they cannot cooperate with the team on the defensive end, and the defensive end of the team is disjointed.
Stephen Jackson did not attack in front of James, but gave the ball to Chen Jiyuan on the outside, after Chen Jiyuan received the ball, he dribbled two steps forward, and then directly faced Anderson Vallejo, who was defending himself, directly shot this large two-point shot, although Anderson Vallejo has tried his best to interfere, but the superstar has found his touch, no matter how you interfere, you can throw the ball in. That's the value of superstars. Chen Jiyuan's talent in scoring is really terrifying. 91:87。
James quickly reversed Chen's behavior, although James rushed to the inside and did not succeed in scoring the ball, but caused a foul on Stephen Jackson's beater. Thankfully, Stephen Jackson is only committing his third foul now, and it won't affect the overall situation, as the game is over with half a quarter left. At this time, there are only three fouls, so there is no need to rush at all, Stephen Jackson is replaced.
James hit both free throws. 91:89。
Chen Jiyuan and James started a scoring battle from the beginning of this offense, and after Chen Jiyuan scored two points here, the Cavaliers will always return the color. Moreover, Gibson also found his touch in the fourth quarter of the game, successfully hitting two three-pointers in a row with three minutes left in the game.
After hitting two three-pointers in a row, Gibson had already scored 32 points. Gibson also scored quite a lot today.
The two sides frequently attacked in the fourth quarter, and the score of the whole game was more than 80 to 80 in the future, but now the score has become 101:100. And this time there is still a minute and a half left before the end of the game.
Chen Jiyuan's fourth quarter game today was absolutely crazy, at the beginning of the fourth quarter of the game, Chen Jiyuan scored ten points in a row, successfully helping the team establish a lead, and then, even crazier is that in the second half of the fourth quarter of the game, from the last six minutes of the game, Chen Jiyuan has been scoring. By the time the game had reached this point, Chen Jiyuan had already scored 26 points. As a playoff game, this is already eyeballs that have fallen to the ground.
Do you know what the highest score in a single quarter of the playoffs is? Well, I'll tell you, it's 29 points, Sripple Floyd, it was back in 1987, Sripple Floyd scored 29 points in a single quarter in the Golden State Warriors' game against the Lakers, which was the NBA playoff single-quarter scoring record.
And now, Chen Jiyuan has scored 26 points in the most critical fourth quarter of the game, and in terms of single-quarter game scoring records, Chen Jiyuan is very likely to surpass Slipp Floyd today to become the highest single-quarter scorer in the playoffs in NBA history.
To be honest, having such an opportunity is also the strength of teammates and the "strength" of opponents.
For example, in a previous attack, Chen Jiyuan was trapped, Chen Jiyuan passed the ball to Stephen Jackson who was released on the outside, Stephen Jackson directly made a three-point posture after receiving the ball, but when James rushed to the outside to help defend, he suddenly found that Stephen Jackson ran into the air, obviously not shooting, this action James is very familiar with, yes, this is the action of the air relay, as soon as he turned around, sure enough, Chen Jiyuan received the ball in the air, Then he slammed it into the basket.
This ball is Stephen Jackson's passing consciousness suddenly opened, making Chen Jiyuan a beneficiary. It can be said that Chen Jiyuan was able to score 26 points in a single quarter of the game, which is definitely not only his own credit, but also the credit of his teammates.
The next one and a half minutes are not only related to the outcome of this game, but also to whether Chen Jiyuan can break the record of scoring in a single quarter of the playoffs.
Fans are more concerned about whether Chen Jiyuan can break this record, and Chen Jiyuan himself is more concerned about whether he can win this game.
It's the Knicks' offensive time, this ball, after Sessions dribbled the ball through the half, he was originally going to pass the ball to Chen Jiyuan, but now the Cavaliers are wrapping up Chen Jiyuan before Chen Jiyuan receives the ball, so that Chen Jiyuan has no chance to get the ball at all, which can be said to be quite cruel.
Sessions saw that Chen Jiyuan had no chance here, so he decisively prepared to attack by himself, stretched out his hand and signaled Chen Jiyuan Lefu to step forward to block and dismantle himself, after Lefu blocked and dismantled Sessions, the blocking and dismantling cooperation of the two people was carried out outside the three-point line, and Lefu at this time did not have the ability to shoot three-pointers, so this ball, Lefu moved to the right side after blocking and dismantling, and came to the right side of the free throw line, and then Seifu went inside on the left side, although the quality of Lefu's blocking and dismantling was not bad, but, Mo Williams still found Sessions in the first place and successfully blocked Sessions. Zajunas Ilgoskas blocking Sessions was the main reason why Mo Williams was able to catch up with Sessions.
But Sessions still took two steps with the ball horizontally, and then passed the ball directly to Lefu, after Lefu received the ball, he shot directly, but unfortunately the ball did not go in, however, this ball, Chen Jiyuan rushed directly to the inside near the bottom line, rushed to grab the rebound, and then in the air, there was no need to wait until it landed, it was directly a one-handed dunk. Successfully dunked the ball into the basket.
After scoring this goal, Chen Jiyuan's single-quarter score became 28 points. It's already a stone's throw away from the record. At this time, in fact, Chen Jiyuan himself still doesn't know this, after all, when the players are on the field, they will play the game wholeheartedly, and the thing they think about is how to win. 103:100。
There is now 1 minute 07 seconds left in the game time. The Cavaliers are still 3 points behind, and at this time, the difference of 3 points does not seem to be large, but in fact, it is not so simple for the Cavaliers to chase it back.
On the Cavaliers' side, James has been looking for opportunities to break through, but the Knicks' defense was very successful, and James had no good chances, so James stood up to Stephen Jackson's defense on the outside and directly pulled out a three-point shot, but unfortunately this kind of shot is obviously not James's forte. The ball is deflected.
After Chen Jiyuan grabbed the rebound, he passed the ball to Sessions, who quickly dribbled the ball through the half, but saw that there was no good opportunity, so he really had to wait for Chen Jiyuan to pass the half.
After Chen Jiyuan passed half time, Chen Jiyuan was tightly sandwiched again with this ball.
In the absence of a way, this ball, Sessions passed the ball to Staki, let Starkey play alone, Starkey single Gibson is actually quite easy to play, but the problem is that the Cavaliers' interior defense is not very slow, although Zajunas Ilgoskas is indeed a little slower, but Anderson Vallejo is not a dry meal.
Starkey's attacking range is too short, it's a hard wound, and if Starkey wants to continue to grow, it's something that has to be addressed.
Starki's ball was after passing Gibson, because of Anderson Vallejo's blocking, he could only take a lateral step, and then directly jumped shot. But unfortunately it didn't get in.
Although Chen Jiyuan wanted to grab this offensive rebound, he was unsuccessful. Zajunas Ilgoskas still protected the backcourt rebound.
It was still a three-point gap, but there were only 32 seconds left in the clock. At this time, James directly grabbed a three-pointer at this time. The goal went in. It was a crucial goal, and if he didn't make this three-pointer, the Cavaliers would have a difficult game.
