Chapter 159: Anthony's Redemption
At halftime, the 76ers trailed by five points and went into the locker room. The team was dignified from top to bottom, and with the Knicks barely shooting from mid-to-long range, they were hoarding heavily on the inside. But it was wreaked havoc on the inside. This frustration makes everyone feel aggrieved.
And the Knicks cost a lot to maintain their advantage on the court. Wang Xiaomu even felt that Lin Yu'er in the immortal stone fell into a deep sleep. The Knicks also sulked heading into halftime.
The disappointment is not known to be the two teams. Their on-court performance made Olive's brow, who had returned to the VIP seats, furrowed. In order to suppress the arrogance of the Knicks, he specially returned to the base camp for help. Santa Claus listened to his elk's reward and ripped several pairs of socks. He even gave Olive a spell at the cost of blood essence and mana: the Great Prophecy.
The effect of the spell was clear, and the Knicks set a franchise record for three-point shooting in the first half. They shot 10-for-10 from the field throughout the first half, a statistic that the younger generations will never be able to achieve.
Kobe Bryant's shooting percentage has been criticized by the league this season, and people are considered to be an All-Star blacksmith. I don't know if Kobe Bryant will feel more comfortable after watching the first half of this game.
But there are reporters who are not long-sighted in the middle of the field and threw this embarrassing question to the melon in the first half of the game with 8 shots and 0. He made eight shots and six three-pointers in the first half, but scored four points on just four free throws and nearly shaved his head.
'Cameron, you didn't play well in the first half, I don't know if you will improve in the second half. ESPN beauty basketball anchor Jermel Hill holds the microphone to remind Anthony of the road.
"Well, I'll admit that the first half was cursed. I'll chase it back in the second half. Anthony said dejectedly.
Sending off Anthony ESPN beauty is obviously not enough, "You know, in NBA history, only Anthony Walker has shot 0-of-11 three-pointers in a game. What's interesting is that one of them is surnamed Anthony and the other is named Anthony, do they want another Anthony spell in the NBA? Let's wait and see. ”
On the other side of the globe, domestic commentators are obsessed with Tim Hardaway's higher-level record. On December 9, 1991, Hardaway made a big splash in the game against the Timberwolves, hitting all 17 consecutive shots. This is an unprecedented record in the history of the league!
Obviously, compared with the real "Iron God", Anthony also needs to have a thick face that is bulletproof and explosion-proof.
In the locker room, Wang Xiaomu comforted the somewhat embarrassed melon while arranging the team's internal tactics.
"It's okay, Anthony, we still need your shot, we didn't make a single three-pointer in the first half, but don't let that be complacent. In the second half, I need you to hold the ball more in the left and right penalty areas and make good use of your squatting position. Wang Xiaomu even made a deep butt action in front of all the team members.
This action caused everyone's laughter.
Stoudemire clutched his stomach and smiled, "Head." You just say let him arch his ass out of the space! ”
Wang Xiaomu glanced at Anthony, who was pouting, and smiled: "In short, I don't want to see you shoot casually, but I need you to attract the bag." Suction bag clip. Attract the bag clip! ”
Half-time was fleeting. At the beginning of the second half, the 76ers also showed enthusiasm on the defensive end, jumping and crawling, putting on murderous faces.
"Look at the ball, Anthony singled out Iguodala in the left side of the midfield, after a simple confrontation. He opted for a mid-range shot, and let's see if the Knicks escaped the curse in the second half. oh~ The ball went in. Anthony shot the team's first mid-range, which was the Knicks' first mid-range of the game. The New York Sports Commentary booth cheered.
And the 76ers fans are lamenting, "It seems that the Knicks have pulled out of their own quagmire and are sinking into the foot, and it will not be easy to resist New York's offense." ”
I have to say. The Knicks also owe this goal to their head coach. Wang Xiaomu, who had a big heart, found that the olive, who disappeared in the last game, was sitting in the audience at the moment, and Wang Xiaomu, who had some premonitions, deliberately stood in front of the olive. It just blocked his viewing angle.
This trick has obviously worked wonders.
Seeing that his team got rid of the goal drought in the middle and long distance, Wang Xiaomu secretly scolded in his heart, grandma, said that fair competition, and secretly stumbled on me. Thanks to Lao Tzu withstanding it in the first half, otherwise he wouldn't have to hate the spot!
Seeing Wang Xiaomu standing in front of him, Olive knew that he couldn't make any more troubles in this game. Having lost the opportunity, he didn't drag his feet, got up and left the court, and now is obviously not the time to tear his face.
Without the troublemakers, the character accumulated by the Knicks in the first half suddenly exploded. Anthony scored 6 points in a row by relying on "ass magic skills", and Wang Xiaomu's big man tactics on the defensive end were still dazzling, and the 76ers were like taking a bath in a swamp.
The score was quickly stretched to more than 10 points.
The outburst Knicks won unanimous praise from the media: "Melo is fully committed, Smalls is fully committed, and Tyson is fully committed." When the Knicks are happy, mobilized and in the heat of the day, the Knicks will be a leader and look like they can go far in the playoffs. ”
The 76ers were clearly not willing to accept defeat and launched a counterattack led by Brand and Holiday . But their strong rebound looked weak under Anthony's outburst.
Anthony hit three consecutive assists from Jeremy Lin for a mid-range jumper, as well as a breakaway basket before assisting substitute Novak on a 16-foot mid-range shot.
Some 76ers die-hards began to try to stir up the crowd's casual "beat the Knicks" slogan, but Anthony's pick-and-roll, positional offense and ball-handling singles gave fans a smooth game. Not even the enemy could bear to stop Anthony's outburst.
The excited melon hadn't encountered such a hearty play for a long time, and he even wished that every ball would shoot by himself. But Wang Xiaomu still let him have reservations for the purpose of protecting the players. When the Knicks lead reached 20 points, it was also the time for Anthony to stop.
He catches the ball in the left waist with his butt up, turns around and uses a tentative step to miss the point, and uses his big ass all the way to the basket and shoots backwards.
"Wow, Carmelo Anthony, a signature single shot for his 15-minute performance. In those fifteen minutes he was the most efficient player in the league with 28 points! Almost every shot. That's Cameron, you can limit him to some of the time, but you just give him the chance. He'll show you what the league's most well-rounded scorer looks like! ”
