Chapter 549: Fierce Battle Knight

The ball was fanned by Chen Jiyuan, and the knight served on the sideline.

After receiving JJ Hickson's serve, Mo Williams shot a three-pointer directly, but the ball did not go in.

Chen Jiyuan decisively accepted the rebound, and did not give the Cavaliers a chance to attack N times.

After rebounding the ball, Chen Jiyuan passed the ball to Stephen Jackson next to him, Stephen Jackson seemed to be a little unconnected when he received the ball, and then he was a little anxious to move forward, but James next to him stole the ball. James grabbed the ball and rushed directly to the inside, it can be said that the impact of those two big hats is still a little, this ball James saw Chen Jiyuan return to the basket, and there was Andre Iguodala in front of him, James decisively chose a step-back jumper, Andre Iguodala Although the defense was also able to keep up, the ball still went in. 8:7。

The two sides went back and forth like this, and the first quarter of today's game was hot on both sides, and the score was 39:36 at the end of the first quarter. The Knicks had a three-point lead for the time being.

In a single quarter, both sides scored close to 40 points. It's a real battle of offense.

After the substitutes came up, they didn't mean to end the offensive battle, and even more so.

Daniel Gibson, as the core of the team's second team, is also hot today, James did not go to rest, but Chen Jiyuan stayed off the court.

James and Daniel Gibson cooperate very well, not that the two directly carry out the tactical cooperation of blocking and dismantling, but James breaks into the inside, and when he has a good opportunity, he goes on his own, and passes out if he doesn't have a good opportunity, a Daniel Gibson and a Mo Williams are all good three-point players, and the shooting rate is more than 40%. Can't relax at all.

However, although the Knicks' boss Chen Jiyuan was resting off the court, but James was on the court, Thibodeau let Andre Iguodala on the court to limit James, and at the same time, Matt Barnes, who was also behind the defensive skills, was allowed to play at the small forward position. Matt Barnes is a little thin, but he is very much liked by Thibodeau.

Not long after Matt Barnes came to the team, Thibodeau found out that although this kid has a thin body and a little difficult to defend a strong player, this will not affect Matt Barnes's defensive strength. It's a very 6. Thibodeau has an urge to start Matt Barnes. However, compared to Stephen Jackson, Stephen Jackson is not as bad as Matt Barnes on the defensive end, but on the offensive end, the difference between the two is a bit big.

The position of power forward is still Ty Gibson, although this guy is not too brilliant, but looking at this energetic guy, Thibodeau is happy, and Thibodeau likes those who have a good defensive attitude.

Serge Ibaka is no problem playing as a backup center, after all, this guy is also a good player on the defensive end. Not only is he positive in defense, but he is also a guy with some experience, so naturally he can please Thibodeau.

James and Daniel Gibson have teamed up to make the team's offensive end fluid, but Andre Iguodala and Matt Barnes can still make James uncomfortable. Although Mo Williams got a lot of chances as a result, it didn't affect Thibodeau's defensive tactics.

And when it comes to offense, Stephen Curry can be said to be really touching. Maybe it's more or less starting to get used to this basket in New York. Stephen Curry's three-pointer today is called a quasi-shot. How accurate? It's definitely more accurate than you think.

In the second quarter of the game, the Knicks' defense was very good, whether it was Ty Gibson or Serge Ibaka on the inside, James would be affected accordingly, and Mo Williams on the outside could be said to be the only defensive "hole". This "loophole" is only relative.

Daniel Gibson scored 12 points on 3-of-4 three-pointers in the second quarter, but even so, Daniel Gibson was not the best man in the second quarter, who was the best man in the second quarter? That's our Mr. Stephen Curry, of course.

Stephen Curry made 6-of-6 three-pointers today, hit all three-pointers in a single quarter, and took more than five shots, which is also a small record. Although records like this are only checked and published by the boring letter wolf editors.

Stephen Curry scored 18 points in a single quarter, which was Stephen Curry's first comeback game after entering the league.

After halftime, today's offensive battle between the Knicks and the Cavaliers actually dropped a score of 68:67.

It's jaw-dropping.

However, this is naturally what the fans love the most. In fact, generally speaking, as long as the opponent scores a high score, then Thibodeau will be unhappy, this is very normal, it must be, Thibodeau's fame is based on his own defense. And now to let the opponent get so many points, doesn't it mean that your team's defense is terrible.

However, today the Cavaliers scored 67 points in the first half of the game, and Thibodeau really didn't curse. If you want to ask anything, then it's obvious. Because the Knicks' defense today is definitely in place, both in terms of defensive attitude and defensive style. There are basically no mistakes, and if you say that the whole team doesn't make any mistakes like the army, it's impossible, and even if it's a military-like team like the Spurs, Popovich can't guarantee that the team won't make a single mistake.

So, instead of cursing today, Thibodeau encouraged the team, which had lost 67 points in the half, to continue to defend like this.

That's a strange thing.

Then you say, James's various difficult goals, Daniel Gibson too, what do you want me to do? Is it possible for the two of them to foul the ball, but even if it is, these two people are not Dwight Howard, not that free throws are difficult.

James, who is not good at big two-point shots, is also a variety of back-to-back shots today, and the three-point shot is also very good, James scored 25 points in the first half of the game. With eight assists at the same time, it's clear that the double-double doesn't look like a problem at all. The question is whether the three pairs can be obtained.

As for Daniel Gibson, all kinds of quick runs, all kinds of backward jumpers after receiving the ball, Stephen Curry has no choice but to watch the opponent shoot, although Daniel Gibson's shot is not surprisingly fast, but he is also dissatisfied, and often Daniel Gibson is surrounded by two people to help cover, Anderson Vallejo, Zajunas Ilgoskas These two people all cover Daniel Gibson, which always allows Daniel Gibson to have a chance, and this opportunity, Stephen Curry has done his best to block it. But to no avail.

Thibodeau is very smart, knowing that the players are doing their best to defend, and the defensive action and awareness are in place, but they still can't prevent the opponent from scoring, which is a very embarrassing thing in itself, if he still scolds them for not defending at this time, it is really pushing all the players to the opposite side of themselves.

However, perhaps both sides used up their hands in the first two quarters of the game. Therefore, this third quarter game did not continue the previous offensive battle, but became an iron battle.

Chen Jiyuan jumper - duang!

Sessions three-pointer - duang!

Stephen Jackson throws a shot - duang!

James lays the basket - duang!

Daniel Gibson's three-pointer is a beautiful shot - duang!

O'Neill's inside line is strong - duang!

A concert is a superstar, the location of the shot is from very close to the basket to far away, and the tone is changing at any time.

Although the music is good, the fans at the scene obviously prefer the music composed of brushing sounds.

Throughout the third quarter, both sides looked to have their defenses working. Whether it was caused by the loss of offensive touch or the increase in defensive intensity, the result was that in the third quarter of the game, the Cavaliers scored 15 points. The Knicks, on the other hand, scored 12 points. The score on the field became 80:82.

The Knicks fell two points behind.

The crucial final quarter of the game determines whether the Knicks can continue their winning streak.

At the beginning of the fourth quarter of the game, the Knicks showed the idea of winning, Chen Jiyuan came up to play a single in the low post, and then directly turned over and jumped, without giving the Cavaliers a chance to wrap up, jammed JJ Hickson behind him, and then received the ball and followed the ball directly, turned over and jumped, plus leaning back, JJ Hickson really couldn't reach it. A turnaround jumper near the bottom corner helped the Knicks tie the score. 82:82。

James has now scored 31 points. After half time, because of the cold hand of the third quarter of the game, James lost the confidence of the first quarter and the second quarter of the game, and he was not so confident in his outside jumper and three-point shot, this ball naturally chose to break through the inside, this ball himself used the change in rhythm to seize a defensive gap in Stephen Jackson, and rushed directly into the interior from the left side, Chen Jiyuan stayed on the inside at this time, The main thing is that O'Neal can't pull people out first, just O'Neal's mid-range shot, I can let you vote, how many can you throw.

James faced Stephen Jackson's visit in the back of the ball, and faced Chen Jiyuan's assistance defense in front, but James still came to the basket bravely, this ball, James resisted Chen Jiyuan's defense, dodged Chen Jiyuan's block, and made a layup, but the ball did not score. It's a bit difficult.

Although the ball didn't score, it blew a foul, and Chen Jiyuan felt very innocent. But there was no choice but to raise his hand.
