Chapter 182: Two fouls

Alstom's height is only 1.88 meters.

But one thing that is well known is that boys are 1.80 meters and 1.70 meters, and girls are 1.60 meters and 1.68 meters...... It's all a collective term.

Boys who are 1.78m/1.79m will say that their height is 1.80m.

In the NBA, 1.85m and 1.88m are two very sensitive numbers.

Generally speaking, most players of their own height are shorter than this number.

So LeBron James saw it very clearly, and there was a "big net" on the opposite side, waiting for him to drill into it.

This brings LeBron into an embarrassing problem like Hamlet:

To break through or not to break through......

Knowing that there are many traps on the other side, whether to carry the "explosives bag" and sacrifice your life for righteousness is really a very difficult choice.

But the problem is that Wade on the other side has just blocked him.

It was done tonight under the watchful eyes of more than 17,000 Clevelands.

If you don't get the field back, you're really losing the adult at home.

Think twice and put the heart-a-heart LeBron James straight into with the ball.

Shaq O'Neal based on his movements, made positional corrections and blocked in front of him well.

"Phew!"

LeBron lived up to the title of "Locomotive", and slammed into Shaq firmly and actually made him take two or three steps back.

This huge impact also made Shaq O'Neal's eyes widen.

This Nima, is it really a person who crashed into me?

Not something else?

Is this Nima really only 19 years old?

Forget it, he fouled anyway.

Shaq O'Neal clearly heard the whistle, but the cheers of the audience rang out in the next moment, which made Shakton feel stunned and turn his head to look.

WTF!

He was upset at the time......

Blocking fouls?

Is this actually a blocking foul?

Shaq hurriedly gestured at the referee with his feet and shouted:

"These feet were standing here last night, and I watched him crash into me!"

Unfortunately, the referee ignored his complaints, quickly stood on the sidelines, and motioned for the Cavaliers to re-serve. This made Shaq O'Neill angry, and he was so aggrieved that he looked like a fat man of three hundred pounds.

LeBron, who was over there, received the ball as usual, but his more hesitant steps showed that Shaq O'Neal's block just now had a big impact on him.

Although he knocked back Shaq O'Neill, the huge force of the shock also made him uncomfortable.

Barkley looked at his hesitant look and said again: "Seriously, if it was a guy like Alstom standing in front of me, I would not hesitate to raise my hand to shoot, what is the difference between this and letting go?" ”

"Or maybe he should really go watch Johnson's game video and see what he does with the balls!"

"Magic" Johnson is not a tall No. 1 who is good at shooting, but he will not hesitate to punish opponents with his wide and thick body when facing the opposing short guard.

And LeBron James has so far been nothing but a breakthrough.

It's just that the Heat team is on the inside tonight, and he really can't break through to the inside.

"I can see LeBron getting stronger this summer, just like Woody, but that's not the main thing, look at Woody's back-to-back now! LeBron should know what dishes are the right way to work hard! ”

In the midst of Barkley's slamming, LeBron James finally chose to force a breakthrough, and the moment Shaq made up for it, he immediately hoisted the ball high under the basket in an attempt to give it to the empty big Z.

It's just that Woody next to him was very keenly aware of this, and at the same time as LeBron made a move, he moved towards Big Z, jumped high, and took the first step to complete the interception.

When the Heat counterattacked, Woody carried the ball to the frontcourt, and the Cavaliers' quick return defense was McGinnis.

Although he also has the ability to defend the striker, he is facing a more No. 4 striker, and he is already 10cm taller than him!

"Let's see how Woody handles misplaced balls!" Barkley watched this matchup in his eyes, and his voice suddenly became louder.

The image he envisioned appeared:

When Woody found out that the person defending in front of him was McGinnis, the No. 2 position, he immediately took the initiative to stick it with his back, and forced the way into the basket in the confrontation, successfully rushed to the basket, and completed the score.

"Huh!"

Two points are easy to get.

From the speed of McGinnis's return defense, the Cavaliers' return defense this round did not drop the chain.

Most of the big players will definitely not have time to defend at this time.

But Woody used his new weapon, which was slowly becoming more proficient, to "back strike" and successfully seized the opportunity that was about to disappear.

"That's what I said, seize the opportunity!"

Buck slapped the table with force, every tone expressing his satisfaction with Woody's round.

The look in LeBron James' eyes is becoming more and more problematic.

In his opinion, Woody is a player with a normal pace of progress.

On the other hand, LeBron, since two or three years ago, when he began to boast that he is the "pride of the sky", it seems that in addition to the body, it is the body, and now two or three years have passed, and what can be done is the body.

But in terms of physical fitness, how much worse are their "beasts" of the 90s than him?

They still have to rely on skill to become the top superstar, and LeBron James is bound to follow this path, but for now, he still relies on the most instinctive way to attack.

Judging by the numbers, he may have succeeded.

After all, the current increase in his data is really outstanding.

But on some nights, like tonight, against a team with a "heavy tank" like Shaq O'Neal, he immediately reverts back to the same way he was last season, and the more problematic is that he has too few attacking tools.

In the 90s, there was no player with a single offensive means who had great success.

Including Michael Jordan, who has such an explosive body, has not won a championship in the first 8 years of his career, of course, Michael Jordan has other problems affecting him, and his skills are obviously several times better than LeBron James in this period.

Even Michael Jordan has to constantly improve his offense, and his LeBron James has not had obvious offensive end skill growth, so it's no wonder that Barkley criticizes him so harshly.

Well, there's another reason:

Barkley was also giving Woody his anger too.

The ESPN-led media attributed luck to luck as LeBron James doesn't seem to be as successful as Woody at the moment.

He has seen the sweat that Woody has shed in order to improve, to become a better player. He will not allow any media to denigrate "the next Barkley" like this.

This game, for LeBron James's bashing, this is just the beginning!

The Cavaliers had to call a timeout at this point.

Because LeBron James started too far behind.

Barkley may have some personal feelings, and the ESPN commentary bench is not very happy with LeBron James' performance tonight.

First he was dunked, and then he was stealed by Woody for a pass error......

'He doesn't look ready at all, which is not what he should be in recent form...... We all know that such a game shows the urgency to win from the beginning! But the Cavaliers didn't look like that at all. As soon as Drexler criticized him, he almost said that the game was over.

In the end, in order for fans to be interested in continuing to watch, he added: "It may also be that the game has just started, so let's continue watching......"

After the timeout, there were no substitutions on either side.

LeBron James held the ball to the front court and became more hesitant, Barkley seized the opportunity to criticize LeBron James's "arsenal" again: "It's really too simple, everyone knows that he wants to break through, and when he targets it, he doesn't have many ways to solve the offense......"

He's going to pass it on!

Before he could say this, he watched LeBron pass the ball on the spot in a dashing manner, and his head deliberately swung to the side, giving the ball to Drew Gooden who came out.

Gooden, who held the ball in his hand, was a little confused.

No......

You just give me the ball, what should I do?

Gooden, who didn't have three skill packs, barely made a three-point shot.

What?

Why didn't he rush to the basket, you ask?

Look at Woody on the other side, he needs to be able to move!

"Bang dang!"

Barely missed, but the ball bounced far away, LeBron quickly grabbed the ball, and then went straight to the frame, Shaq O'Neal intervened in time, but still let him put the ball in the basket.

The Cavaliers finally finished scoring.

But if you do it every round......

The audience at the scene let out a long-lost cheer, and they were all suffocated.

The head coach of the Cavaliers had a serious look on his face.

This isn't the Cavaliers' normal scoring process.

Woody served the ball directly to Alston under the basket, Alston dribbled to the frontcourt, Wade came from the wing to make a catch-and-feint, shook the Cavaliers, and by the way, helped Shaq O'Neal completely clear the defense on that side.

Shaq catches the ball and goes 1 against 1 with Big Z!

The man-eating "shark" is coming!

The violent confrontation crushed Big Z like a dough sheeter, and then raised his hand to score an easy layup.

The whole process takes less than 4 seconds.

The attack time is short, and the speed is so fast that the Quick Loan Arena, which finally has a little sound, is quiet all of a sudden.

Shaq O'Neal looks like he hasn't finished his accounts, and he still looks fierce in the defense.

The defender just named him a "blocking foul", which really him off.

LeBron James saw all this in his eyes, and when he just saw the referee award Shaq a defensive foul, he was still a little happy, and he didn't know whether the referee was helping or hurting him.

In the Cavaliers' offensive round, the whole running position was like squeezing toothpaste. It's called "barely strong", but "can't get ahead".

LeBron James ended up "looking for a little hope for a breakthrough in the chaos", called a pick-and-roll, muddied the waters, and then a fierce man rushed towards the basket.

Shaq O'Neal also looked down at his feet this time, not stepping on the line of the reasonable collision zone, and then looked at LeBron, who was still two positions away from him, but he had already stood firm.

As long as LeBron doesn't avoid it, it's his "offensive foul"!

From this picture, it can actually be seen that Shaq O'Neal is also fighting tonight.

You know, it's a "pickup truck"!

In the case of being hit once, and having the courage to go up and be hit again, this is a very difficult thing in itself.

Shaq O'Neal has taken such an attitude.

"Phew!"

LeBron pulled his horsepower to the maximum, and naturally it was difficult to dodge.

"Toot!"

The referee's whistle.

Is......

Shaq's foul!

“WTF!”

Even Stan Van Gundy couldn't stand it anymore, and with a hoarse voice, he roared towards the referee. As a result, in the midst of the shouts of the audience, the referee gave him a technical foul.

The Cavaliers got a free throw.

"Huh!"

LeBron walked to the free throw line and hit the ball safely.

The look on the Heat's side is already very unsightly.

But there is one issue that must be dealt with first, and that is the foul on Shaq.

In less than three minutes into the opening period, he had two fouls, which must have been rested off the court.

"Here's your chance for the Cavaliers!" Bill Wharton accurately captured this message, "For the rest of the first quarter, the Heat will be without Shaq, which is definitely a chance for the Cavaliers, and LeBron must be in the rest of the first quarter if he wants to get back to his form!" ”

Kenny Smith looked at Barkley, who didn't speak for a long time, and said: "Although Shaq's foul is a bit controversial, one thing is for sure, this game will be even more exciting!" ”

In the end, it is a "national live broadcast", and it can't be crushed all the way, right?

"Rest, Shaq, wait for you to come on the court and finish the game!" Before entering the game, Woody calmly patted Shaq on the shoulder and reassured him.

His look fell on Stephen Curry's eyes.

Curry knows very well that his brother is angry!

The calmer Woody is, in fact, the "oil" in his body has already boiled, just waiting to detonate!

If the Cavaliers feel that from now on, this is their chance, then it would be a very wrong idea.

The timeout ended, the game restarted, the Cavaliers' offensive round, Shaq O'Neal sat off the court, LeBron James's hesitation disappeared immediately, holding the ball in hand, just a brief look.

The Heat's No. 5 spot is Haslem.

will directly force a breakthrough.

Alston was directly pushed away by him, stepped on the free throw line and glanced at the positions of Woody and Haslem, and saw that he didn't mean to come up to make up for the defense, so he rushed to the basket with all his strength.

It's just that when I look up again, there are already more hands on top of my head.

It's Haslem.

LeBron didn't back down, he just stood up to Haslem like this, reaching forward with his hand, trying to complete the "extreme basket" through the rotation of his wrist.

He is confident enough in his hand work.

But just as he stretched out his hand, another pair of big hands pressed precisely on the ball.

"Smack!"

Big hat from Woody! (End of chapter)
