I stole James

Chapter 237 A Little Close to Jordan's Height
When James once again raised his hand from the outside and scored a three-pointer, the difference between the two sides had widened to 19 points.

Barkley sighed and said: "Is this still the playoffs? The Pacers look a bit vulnerable in front of the Cavaliers."

Kenny Smith interjected: "That's right, when they lost a defensive champion Artest, there is really no one in their team who can defend LeBron alone. But once they are flanked, LeBron's pass will be very difficult. Make them pay."

"And the rest of the Cavaliers are also playing well. Paul is playing more and more calmly and maturely now, and Tony Allen's defense and catch-and-shoot ability are also very good.

On the offensive end, Randolph has completely blown up Dale Davis. Although Davis has always been known for his defense, once LeBron breaks in and Davis is a little careless, the pass in LeBron's hand will be passed. After going out, Randolph can easily score the ball.

And Big Z didn't fight Jermaine O'Neal in the penalty area. He usually pulled out space and took Jermaine O'Neal out, which also left more room for LeBron to break through. Big Z has enough height and Soft shooting touch, so when he pulls out, LeBron or Paul passes the ball to him, and he can also shoot the ball.In this case, it will be difficult for the Pacers to play. "Kenny Smith analyzed.

"O'Neal's inside ability is still very good, but the inside players need to have good outside players to pass the ball and be able to hand the ball to them at the right time. Only in this way can they exert their greatest power.

Now the Pacers are missing a player who can pass the ball very threateningly.

Compared with Paul and LeBron, Anthony Johnson is not a little bit worse, but a lot worse. He is not a player of the same level at all.

They can't count on getting the ball into Reggie Miller's hands, just into Stephen Jackson's hands.

To be honest, Reggie Miller is old. Although there is still gas in the tank, it is difficult to expect him to carry the Pacers forward.

Stephen Jackson didn't play well against LeBron's defense either.

When LeBron defended Jackson, he used his body to fight, and he kept making steals.

Even a guy like Jackson who looks very strong doesn't have an advantage when facing LeBron physically. Although he still has a height advantage, in terms of physical strength and strength, LeBron makes it difficult for him to play.

It is still difficult to play with the advantage of height alone, and he dare not pull up directly in front of LeBron to shoot. LeBron's jumping ability is also very strong. Jackson had such a ball before, but he was directly slapped by LeBron's cap. up.

Stephen Jackson is a very tempered player, but today he was really guarded to lose his temper in front of LeBron.

When LeBron arrived in the playoffs, he seemed to have improved his defensive strength in the game. In the regular season, he may not have been so desperate to defend and paddle daily, but now in the playoffs, he is Chasing Stephen Jackson all over the court, and also has a very good ability to help teammates defend..."

When Barkley was talking, Kenny Smith couldn't help but interjected: "LeBron is definitely a combination of offense and defense. They are both top-notch performances. They are really good. He has already robbed Jackson twice in a row on defense." , and another interception. His performance was absolutely impeccable."

Barkley nodded: "Yes, when the Cavaliers play like this, the Pacers may have a difficult time today. It is very difficult for them to win a victory at the Cavaliers' home court. It is only the second quarter. It’s so far behind.”

Before Barkley finished speaking, Kenny Smith yelled, "Oh, my God, LeBron made another three-pointer, this time between Reggie Miller and Stephen Jackson. They teamed up to defend him and made the shot, right in front of Jackson, and threw the ball in. Can't be guarded, really can't be guarded!"

"The point difference has been stretched to 23 points. How else can the Pacers play and recover the point difference? The key is that the Pacers are a team that emphasizes defense rather than offense. So much, and their defense doesn't work, do you really expect them to recover the score through offense? It's a bit unrealistic."

Kenny Smith then said: "This game is not like the playoffs. The strength gap between the two sides is very large. The Cavaliers are much stronger than the Pacers. Last season's top spot in the Eastern Conference and this season's The top spot in the East, the difference between the two teams is definitely not as simple as Artest."

"So those who thought the Pacers could be upset before the game were hit hard in the face." Barkley said with a smile.

The first half ended in the Pacers' offensive strike, and the difference between the two sides widened to 23 points.

This is a huge hole. If the Pacers can't find a way to fill this hole in the third quarter, this game will almost be considered the end of the game.

Back in the second half, the Cavaliers attacked, Paul advanced with the ball, and James followed, on the right flank.

Paul hit the ground and passed the ball to James. As soon as James got the ball, the Pacers players became nervous.

Stephen Jackson lowered his center of gravity, raised his hand and rushed up, and Reggie Miller also moved laterally from the side, trying to double-team James.

Before Reggie Miller even arrived, James had already raised the ball over his head, a shooting posture, which attracted Stephen Jackson to jump forward directly.

There is no way not to pounce, James' three-point shooting is too sharp.

His three-point shooting skills are not just as simple as getting Kapono's three-point shooting skills. On the basis of this combat skills, he has adjusted and trained according to his shooting habits and future basketball development trends. Polishing this combat skill.

Now his shooting speed is fast enough, his shots are hard enough, and he is accurate enough.

So as soon as he made a shooting posture, he made the opponent feel nervous.

But his move was just a feint. After he lifted the ball, he immediately retracted it, released the ball, took advantage of the moment when Jackson pounced forward, dribbled the ball and broke through, easily passed Jackson, rushed to the free throw line, and took off. , a mid-range shot, and scored the ball steadily.

"LeBron is really playing freely now, like a game of life!" Barkley sighed.

Kenny Smith nodded frequently, "He has indeed reached another level now, a bit close to Jordan's height."
