I stole James

Chapter 157 Needle Point Against Wheat Awn (Chapter [-])

Big Van Gundy's adjustment still has some effect.

Back from the timeout, the defense of Eddie Jones and Wade caused a mistake by James, and the Heat got the ball.

Wade came down quickly with the ball and met Ira Newbell on the outside. He swayed to the right side while he was moving. The speed was super fast. Newbell was swayed to the side by him, but Wade had already pulled the ball. Going back, broke through from the left side, and slanted into the basket.

Boozer stepped forward, trying to stop Wade.

But Wade has already taken off, holding the ball in both hands, facing Boozer, and dunking the ball hard into the basket through Boozer's raised hands.

"Oh, My god! Wade dunked Boozer! It was a wonderful shot!" Kenny Smith exclaimed, "His speed is really fast, because of the fast feint, even if Newbell realized that he was fake, and his body would be shaken involuntarily!"

Barkley nodded, "I can't imagine him being a player with a meniscus off one knee. If his knee is intact, I don't think his talent will be lower than LeBron's."

"Currently, he, LeBron and Anthony are the most talented rookies in their class. It is said that the three of them have a good relationship in private." Kenny Smith said.

Wade's breakthrough smoothed the difference between the two sides, and the two sides returned to the same starting line.

The Cavaliers attack, McGinnis advances with the ball, reaches the top of the arc, hoists the basketball inside, and gives it to the big Z in the low position. The big Z is leaning on Grant. He notices that James has cut in from the outside, so he sends out A ground-up pass to James.

James took the ball as a one-handed dunk in response to Wade's just ball.

"LeBron! LeBron! LeBron!..." The fans in the audience shouted enthusiastically.

This is what they want to see, fight back, respond to them, kill them, win!
But then, the situation of the game developed in a direction that was unfavorable to the Cavaliers. Wade made two consecutive three-pointers from the outside, and Odom also made consecutive layups inside. They helped the Heat score 9 points leading edge.

"When LeBron's touch is declining, why can't we always stand up and share the pressure on him?" Some fans said dissatisfied.

"Yeah, the regular season can rely on LeBron alone to carry the team into the playoffs, but if no one can stand up and fight with him in the playoffs, then our prospects for the playoffs are a bit bad ah."

"That Boozer stood on the perimeter for several shots, just watching LeBron himself play. Doesn't he know how to actively run and help contain the Heat's defense?"

"The same goes for Wagner. After he came on the field, he just ran around, and when he got the ball, he lowered his head and rushed in. He didn't look at anyone."

"LeBron is the only one in the playoffs. We played too hard. We need to move more and cooperate more to cover LeBron. Otherwise, everyone on the Heat team can double-team him."

"The team should make a trade, trade some good players to play with LeBron."

"That's right! I think some players who can play off the ball should be brought in. They are more compatible with LeBron. It's time to test the management's ability."

……

Paul Silas called a timeout, but the timeout came back and failed to solve the problem of the Cavaliers. Blocking Wade, James switched defenses to Wade, and no one could prevent the connection between Eddie Jones and Odom.

At halftime, the Cavaliers trailed the Heat by 14 points.

……

……

Wharton: It feels like the group leader and they are going to lose.

Perkins: It's better for the Heat to play with more people.

Bosh: Yeah, I hope the Cavaliers are in better shape when we come back in the second half.

Wharton: Actually, do you want to see the group leader win more games or do you want Wade to win more games?
Hinrich: Hahaha, I can't say this, I'm afraid I will be kicked out of the group if I say it, it's not good to offend anyone.

Perkins: Upstairs is slippery, hehe.

Hinrich: One is the group owner and the other is the group administrator, @Perkins, which one do you support to win?
Perkins: @Hinrich watch the game carefully, don't talk.

……

……

"Look, that's what I said before the game started. A one-man team, when that man can't continue to be hot, no one in the team can stand up. They are in danger. The Cavaliers must solve it. This is the only way to go further, otherwise, their playoffs are likely to be a round trip. Now the Heat have played their characteristics, and there will always be someone who will stand up and make a contribution at the right time, so they have taken the lead. "Kenny Smith analyzed.

Barkley shook his head, "I don't believe LeBron will always feel cold, he played well in the beginning, now what he needs is to get his touch back.

The Heat's defensive adjustment has caused some interference to him, because Eddie Jones and Wade are both players with flexibility and speed, and they don't lack toughness.

Jones' defense is very good, he is head-on confrontation with LeBron, Wade took the opportunity to harass from the side, because Wade's speed is very fast, so even if LeBron passes the ball to Wade's defending teammate, Wade Germany can also quickly return to defense in place.

But I think this will not be a problem for LeBron. What he needs now is to play more resolutely. Compared with Jones, he has height and strength, and his speed and flexibility are not inferior. He can beat Jones by force. Yes, use offense to break the game, not pass. "

Back in the second half, the two sides switched sides and fought again.

The Cavaliers attacked, McGinnis dribbled the ball to the top of the arc, and passed the ball to James on the left wing.

James holds the ball in his hand, bends his knees and lifts the ball, and hits straight up.

Jones quickly raised his hand to prevent James from shooting.

James feinted for a while, and saw Jones leaning forward with one foot off the ground to defend himself. He raised the ball and stuck it to Jones, which was both a foul and a three-pointer.

With a swipe, he threw the basketball into the basket steadily, and at the same time the referee's whistle sounded, James got a chance to add a penalty, and there were also free throws.

Barkley glanced at Kenny Smith, smiled and said, "Here we come!"

Kenny Smith didn't speak, his eyes fixed on the field.

Wade dribbles the ball quickly down the right, then moves laterally toward the basket.

Boozer and Big Z shrunk towards him and intercepted him. Wade didn't get a good chance for a layup, so he had to take the ball out from the middle. Eddie Jones at the top.

Eddie Jones received the ball and broke through directly. Newbell followed him closely. As he rushed forward, he passed the ball without looking behind his back, and passed the ball to Wade, who was standing outside the three-point line on the left wing. hand.

"This pass is really beautiful! Wade rushed to the bottom line, from the inside out, disturbed the Cavaliers' defense, gave the ball to Jones, Jones rushed in, and compressed the Cavaliers' defense again. , Let Wade come out of the open space, this cooperation is really good!" Kenny Smith praised, "Wade is about to shoot a three-pointer, and his three-pointer today feels good."

Wade took the ball and adjusted it, aimed, took off, and shot.

At this time, he saw a figure rushing towards him, it was James, and James rushed over from a distance of two or three steps away from him.

"Brother, it seems that I'm going to lead you by a game, hehe." When the first half was over, Wade said to James with a smile.

"The game hasn't finished yet, and you don't know the result until the last moment. Brother, don't get too complacent." James also said to Wade with a smile, and stretched out his hand to pat Wade's buttocks, turning around walk off.

Off the court, there was no sense of rivalry between the two of them, but on the court, everyone was doing their best.

James also jumped up, palms towards the basketball shot Wade threw.

With a snap, the basketball was sent flying by him.

After James finished capping Wade, he didn't stop for a moment, turned around and went to grab the basketball.

Cardinal Auerbach once said that if you can't grab the basketball after blocking a shot, then blocking a shot is a waste of effort.

Anyway, James didn't remember who said it, so he assumed it was Auerbach.

Just like in his previous life, he often said that a certain sentence was said by Lu Xun, and he couldn't verify the authenticity anyway.

James grabbed the rebound and dribbled the ball forward quickly.

"Hey, I just said that LeBron won't always feel cold. A true superstar can always find his own rhythm in the game. Just like Jordan, LeBron is undoubtedly such a person." Barkley said to Kenny Smith proudly.

Wade returned to the defense quickly, and he stopped James outside the three-point line in the backcourt.

"The two are going to fight one-on-one! Can LeBron get past Wade?" Kenny Smith couldn't care less about bickering with Barkley, he yelled loudly.

Wade opened his hands, closely watching James' every move, but he couldn't be forced by James like he did during training.

Boom, James slowed down and didn't start right away.

Boom, boom, he dribbled the ball back and forth with both hands a few times, then swayed to the left, without shaking Wade away.

Then he handed over his right hand and swayed to the right, but Wade was still not shocked. After all, he had trained together many times, and Wade was still familiar with James' breakthrough.

Boom, James quickly handed the ball from his crotch to his left hand, and suddenly took a step to the left. This time Wade was shaken, and Wade moved half a step sideways.

James pulled the ball back, made a sharp change in front of his body, the ball returned to his right hand, stepped in from the right side, passed Wade, and went to the basket.

After being shaken for a while, Wade quickly turned around and chased after James tightly.

Grant from the Heat's basket also rushed up, trying to block James' breakthrough.

When approaching the basket, James took off, and Wade and Grant also took off at the same time and raised their hands to block.

Boom, James and Wade confronted in the air, James used his strength to float back, and then hooked the basketball out, and the basketball fell into the net.

"LeBron is really good. After coming back in the second half, he played more resolutely. Obviously, he also figured out how to deal with the Heat's defense against him. His golf quotient is really high and really smart. Ah. So at the beginning of the second half, we scored consecutively and resolutely to narrow the point difference." Barkley said with a smile.

"From the current point of view, it is indeed the case." Kenny Smith pretended to sigh and said that for the effect of the program, it is common for the two to pinch each other on the program.

In sports commentary, if two commentators always have the same point of view and there is no collision, the fans will feel dull.

As veterans in the commentary world, these two people are well versed in this, otherwise how could there be the TNT commentary team later?
Looking back, the Heat attacked, and the low emotions of the home fans had been ignited by James' performance in the second half. They shouted loudly, "Defense! Defense! Defense!..."

Candice also shouted loudly in front of the TV: "Defense! Defense! Defense!..."

Because of James' wonderful performance just now, her excited screams almost shook the glass of the room to fall.

Eddie Jones has the ball and advances from the right.

The Heat players seemed a little impatient.

"Everyone, calm down, control yourself, and don't mess around!" Wade reminded his teammates aloud. Although Jones still firmly holds the position of the team's first brother, he still cannot stop his rise in the Heat. Demonstrate your leadership skills.

Jones crossed the ball to Wade who followed from the middle.

Wade received the ball, released the ball, and rushed forward like lightning.

McGinnis and Newbell attacked, but Wade turned around quickly, slipped through the gap between them beautifully, turned directly to the basket, and made a layup.

"Beautiful! Wade's breakthrough is so beautiful! He is facing LeBron on the court! The two seem to inspire each other, and they are both playing very wonderful performances. Now, it is difficult to learn from them. You can see the greenness of a rookie. They played too well." Kenny Smith praised.

Perkins: Wade and the group leader are fighting each other, and they want to beat each other to death!

Wharton: Isn't that crap, it has to be, you lose or you win, but there is no tie.

Hinrich: They played really well, it was a good game.

Bosh: In the first half, the Heat had the upper hand. In the second half, the team leaders started to exert their strength, and the outcome was in suspense again.

Amid all the talk, the Cavaliers were attacking, with McInnis holding the ball on the left.

James walks to the right, drawing the defensive attention of Eddie Jones and Wade.

He circled out and ran towards the top of the arc.

Newbell and Big Z made a double screen for him, blocking Jones and Wade who were chasing behind.

McGinnis's pass arrived in time, James caught the ball, jumped up immediately, tucked in his belly, bounced his legs, flicked the ball, and the basketball was thrown.

The basketball drew a beautiful arc in the air, then fell steadily into the net and hit a three-pointer.
