Chapter 340
What was the most impressive thing about the first quarter?

Bargnani's shooting rate is 100% from two meters beyond the three-point line, and 0% on three-pointers from normal distances.

Li Xing attacked fans off the court by taking advantage of the changes on the court for his own selfishness, which aroused heated discussions.

Anthony's public execution of DeRozan in the second half of the first quarter.

For the playoffs, there are enough stories in this section, no matter what kind of fans they are, they can find topics they like.

DeRozan was not too happy. Anthony pointed his head at the basket like a weather vane.

What's even more hateful is that he clearly knew that the other party was coming for him, but he couldn't resist at all.

Anthony's jumper skills are superb, and it is no problem to deal with DeRozan.

His performance indirectly pointed out a clear way for DeRozan: If one day you have enough flying and don't want to soar in the sky, you can also choose to take root in the ground like Anthony and use a superb jumper to solve the opponent.

Anthony's offense is certainly worth learning, but anyone can learn it.

You know, one of the clearest characteristics of Anthony is his precocity.

Many of his skills were learned when he was a rookie, and after years of refinement, they naturally became more and more powerful.

DeRozan is different, he still has to learn slowly, and it is still unknown what kind of player he will grow into in the future.

In the stalemate stage between the first quarter and the second quarter, the two sides sent several main players.

The Knicks' advantage lies in experience. They have hoarded veterans like Mike Bibby and Baron Davis in the formation.

They can run the team very well, as long as they don't burn their brains.

Fortunately, Bibby said that he was still the engine of the Heat last season, and this season he can only retire in the Knicks.

No one can avoid the decline of competitive state.

Davis and Stephenson had the first friction. The two emotional people spat out trash talk at the same time and hit the ball in response.

For a minute or two, Davis and Stephenson took all of their teams' shots.

The head coaches of both sides have different views on this matter.

Knicks head coach Mike Woodson felt that Davis was doing something wrong and that he was past the age at which he could stand alone above the team.

He is too old, not to mention the inefficiency of playing like this, it also affects the rhythm of the team.

His attitude is very clear, that is, Davis should not play like this.

Snyder took a different view. When he was sure that Stephenson would never change himself, he decided not to push the young man any more.

He wants to be himself, let him be himself.

If you like to attack, just attack. No matter what you want to do, as long as you can guarantee the efficiency, you can play how you want.

In the 2 minutes of fighting Davis, Stephenson scored 5 points and 1 assist, basically every time he holds the ball, he benefits.

Davis is not bad either, scoring 3 of 2 in the dialogue with Stephenson and scoring 4 points.

During the time when the core players of both sides were resting, the substitute players were having a lot of trouble.

The Knicks first changed the stalemate. They replaced Anthony and Stoudemire, determined to change the situation on the court.

Since the opponent took the initiative to change players, Snyder would not hide and replace Li Xing.

"It seems that your coach is very worried about the game. Aren't you the leader? What are you afraid of?"

Stoudemire's ridicule never stopped from the beginning.

Li Xing didn't know why he had such a thick skin?He has been slapped in the face constantly since the beginning, and he can't defend against it. He can only show his prestige on Bargnani's offense. I don't know what he can be proud of?
Now, the players on both sides have also changed.

The Knicks have Anthony and Stoudemire's dual cores, and the Raptors have Stephenson, Shelvin Mark, Barnes, Evans, and Li Xing.

general speaking.It was Li Xing who played against the Knicks with four substitutes and all the main players.

"I wouldn't be surprised if such a lineup appeared in the regular season, but this is the playoffs."

Angus lamented Snyder's boldness: "Coach Quinn Snyder is really not an ordinary person."

"Such a risky employment is not worthy of praise."

The smiling assassin said sourly: "If the game is lost because of this arrangement, he will be blamed by everyone."

Seeing that the other party is a guest, Angus will not reveal his dark history here.

He didn't know what qualifications a person who can't do anything well other than players have the right to make irresponsible remarks to the champion coach?

After saying these words in his heart, Angus despised the smiling assassin to the extreme.

At this point, he misses Damon Stoudemire terribly.

It's more interesting for the two Raptors to blow water in the commentary booth.

As soon as Li Xing came on the court, the Raptors' game changed from Stephenson's individual fight to a team-oriented collective cooperation.

Stephenson borrowed Li Xing's pick and roll, passed Davis, and passed back to Li Xing.

Li Xing held the ball, feinted with one hand, teased Chandler, pouted his buttocks, and helped Barnes get stuck.

Barnes took the basketball hand-in-hand and drove into the hoop, causing chaos on the Knicks' front line and slamming the ball.

Outside, Shelvin Mark made an open three-pointer.

Have it.

Li Xing nodded affirmatively, turned and returned to defense.

As soon as he left, he scored a three-pointer.

"Did you see Lakey Lee's reaction? He seemed to know in advance that the three-pointer would be scored. It's amazing!"

The Smiling Assassin is a player after all, and he sees farther than Angus; "Maybe, this is the secret of his ability to grab 20 rebounds every game."

No one wants to believe this is true.

If what the Smiling Assassin said was true, that is to say, Li Xing knew whether the shot would go in or not, which is really unbelievable.

Although shooting can be judged by the ball path and arc, it is biased after all.

Who dares to 100% guarantee that they will enter or not?
However, if this is not the case, Li Xing's miraculous performance cannot be explained.

Whether the consciousness is ahead of others, or the talent is superior to others, no matter how good the talent is, no matter how good the consciousness is, a pre-judgment is required.

Only by making accurate predictions can we grab so many rebounds.

"Don't be complacent!"

Anthony picked up the ball and it was another three-threat.

In the first quarter, DeRozan was a suspicious life abused by this trick.

Now that the opponent has changed, Anthony doesn't want to change, so he still moves forward step by step.

Barnes' defense is a bit better than DeRozan's, and he has more experience, but the gap between Anthony and DeRozan is not only this.

Barnes, who is a little better than DeRozan, is destined to be a defender who depends on the sky.

It is not up to him to decide whether he can guard against Anthony.

"Voted!"

Barnes reached out to block the shot, and Anthony's ball had flown over his head and into the rim like a homing missile.

There was a pleasant pop.

Chrysanthemum's non-interfering basketball continued to spin three or four times in the net, and the scratched net was attached to the ball before it fell with difficulty.

What a shot!

Even Li Xing was secretly surprised when he saw such a shot. Once the touch came, Anthony was unstoppable.

His shooting looks so comfortable that no one on the Raptors can match him.

This is another potential downside for the Raptors.

Since last season, DeRozan has often swung to the third position, as anyone who is familiar with him knows.His most comfortable position is the second position. In the second position, he has a height advantage and outstanding athletic ability. In the third position where monsters and ghosts gather together, his advantages are not so obvious.

The Timberwolves have been looking for a high-quality third position, but Pondexter's talent is limited, Barnes has been fixed, and the free market can't recruit anyone, so DeRozan can only be used as the third position for a long time.

DeRozan topped the third position, and the two guard lines were in chaos.

Therefore, the Raptors' guard line has long been a weakness.

The back line composed of Calderon and Tony Allen is definitely not enough at this height. The defense is still passable and lacks impact. When encountering a team with top guards, the back line will inevitably be blown out.

The existence of Anthony completely broke out the potential hidden dangers of the third position.

Li Xing didn't say anything, and sent the ball to Stephenson: "I will ask for the ball in the low post later, remember to give it to me."

"no problem!"

Stephenson agreed.

"Damn it, is it coming again?"

Chandler could feel that Li Xing was taking the initiative to confront him.

If it wasn't for the offense, Li Xing wouldn't be like this.

Find confrontation in advance, one is to get used to it, and the other is to find the rhythm. As long as Li Xing has the ball, Li Xing can launch an attack, and he will make a quick decision.

Chandler has played against many masters, and he knows what to do inside before attacking.

Many crispy perimeter opponents are as afraid of confrontation as wolves, wishing to keep a distance of three meters from their opponents every time they attack, and strive to break through for layups without touching their bodies.

Their aversion to physical contact is stronger than that of some clean freaks.

This kind of person will never be able to hit the inside line.

The insiders other than Kite Man have to go through many confrontations every time they score a point.

A real master will find a rhythm that suits him in the end of hand-to-hand combat.

Li Xing completely suppressed Chandler, as long as Stephenson passed the ball, this round of fighting would be over.

Chandler believed that as long as Li Xing got the ball, he would launch an attack in an instant, and even if Stoudemire, a scumbag, wanted to come over and help, it would be too late.

Thank God, Li Xing finally agreed to do so.

He would rather play one-on-one with Li Xing than double-team with Stoudemire.

Especially when he saw that idiot triumphantly bumping into Li Xing, thinking that he was awesome, but in fact, he was full of loopholes, and he still had to work hard to control his position.Whenever Li Xing defeated them one by one, he had to resist the urge to knock Stoudemire out on the spot with a strong will.

Li Xing got the ball, and Stoudemire really wanted to come over.

As a result, Li Xing suddenly let go of the resistance, stepped back with his left foot, and raised his body lightly.

Just like a painless abortion, there is no pain.

Li Xing Jinji shot a jumper.

"Shh!"

No regrets, no disappointments, no anger that Stoudemire messed up, and no anger that some idiot was smug about his efforts for nothing.

Chandler was shot in the face by Li Xing, but his expression was very peaceful.
