Chapter 131

When the two commented, Li Ba sat back the moment he caught the ball and quickly arched his back to Camby.

He really hit Camby hard, double-ducked, and got close to the rim.

In the third second of the back hit, Li Ba arched his back for the third time. He not only reached the distance where he could directly attack the basket, but also got enough space for his shot. He was ready to attack the basket.

At this time, Nene came from the low position on the right wing to participate in the defense.

"Hey boss, here it is."

Jack Voskull yelled behind Nene and asked Li Ba to pass the ball.

He was the No. 33 pick in the second round in 2000, and he was okay as a substitute. In the main lineup, his strength seemed to be much worse, and Li Ba didn't give it to him.

The reason why he didn't play alley-oops with Marbury was because he wanted to use the low post to make strong plays and make the Nuggets' inside fouls. If it was given to Jack, it would be meaningless.

The primary problem now is not actually scoring, but half of his own inside line collapsed. If the Nuggets' inside line is also knocked down, then everyone will return to the same starting line.

"Boom!"

Moments before Nene came to assist in the defense, Li Ba backed Camby for the fourth second, making the latter retreat into a reasonable collision zone.

Then he turned around sharply, jumped straight up, grabbed the ball with his right hand and smashed it to the basket across Camby.

Camby was pushed back, his center of gravity was moving, and he couldn't take off in time to block the shot, so he had to push Li Ba hard.

The same goes for Nene. When he came here, he saw Li Ba jumping for a dunk. He immediately jumped up and slapped him.

But his jumping ability is not very good, just like Li Ba's. In addition, he was not prepared enough to take off, and the height of the block was not high enough. With a snap, he hit Li Ba's right wrist.

"flute!"

The whistle blew.

"boom!"

The rim was smashed, but the basketball slammed out of the rim.

"Boom!"

Li Ba lost his center of gravity in his upper body, and when he landed, he staggered backwards and nearly fell down.

"Aww!!!!!!!!!!!!"

Seeing that Li Ba failed to buckle, the Pepsi Center burst into loud cheers.

Both Camby and Nene raised their hands to the referee, who awarded the foul to Nene.

"Iron Hammer's back-hitting skills are not good enough. There are no fake moves, no steps to move, and rely entirely on strength to drive back the defensive player. Every time it is head-to-head, it consumes a lot of physical energy." Kenny Smith said.

"It's not that he has no skills, of course he is not good enough. The main reason is that he is not sensitive enough, and his turning movements are not fast enough. Using strength is the best choice." Barkley said.

Li Ba made free throws and made 1 of 2 free throws.

38:46, the Suns trailed by 8 points away.

Nene was then replaced with Nuggets backup center Francisco Elson and Camby at the four.

The Nuggets attacked, and Anthony again hit a two-pointer over James Posey's head.

He was blood capped twice by Li Ba, and he stopped entering the paint, and tortured Posey outside.

Turning back to the Suns offense, Marbury called Jack Voskull for a high pick-and-roll from the top arc, and then missed the pick-and-roll, and threw a three-pointer on the spot and missed.

The Nuggets attacked, on the left-wing three-point line, Anthony and Andre made a pick-and-roll again, and after forming a dislocation, the former made a three-pointer on Marbury's head, 38:51, widening the point difference to 13 points.

"Stephen, give me the ball."

The Suns attacked, and Li Ba yelled at Marbury before he entered the inside line.

"OK."

Marbury froze for a moment, but nodded immediately.

"This is the problem of the Suns now. There are too few scoring points, and they are concentrated in the hands of Marbury and Marion. Once they suffer from injuries or feel bad, their scoring ability will immediately disappear." Kenny Smith said.

"After the Hammer became the new boss of the Suns, the average rebounds per game increased by nearly 5, the average steals per game increased by 2.5, and the average blocks per game increased by 2.1, which is equivalent to an average increase of 9 possessions per game. An incredible increase. Then Stoudemire was missing, Marbury and Marion had a lot more ball possessions, and their statistics soared. But now that one is injured, the hidden danger of the team immediately appeared." Barker Lee nodded.

"I calculated, the Suns still have 5 million salary space, a middle class, and the management should continue to trade." Kenny Smith said.

"That's for sure," Barkley said.

Li Ba is in the low post on the left wing. This time it is not Camby who is defending him, but Nuggets backup center Elson.

This can protect Camby, and in terms of weight, Elson is 113 kg and 211 cm tall. Regardless of defensive skills, these two have more advantages than Camby.

But defense is not only about height and weight. Elson suffered a loss as soon as he came up.

Seeing that it wasn't Camby, Li Ba immediately changed his plan to fight hard.

Since Camby can't come over, it's better to score directly. This can not only chase points, but also force Camby to return to his side.

He glanced at Marbury, and after the other party noticed, he glanced at the basket again.

This is the code they agreed upon, a direct connection in the air.

"Boom!"

Li Ba suddenly sat back. Even though Elson had enough weight, he was still not as strong as him. In addition, his center of gravity was higher and his foot was unstable, so he was pushed back half a step immediately.

This time, Li Ba had the space to turn around.

He turned immediately, stopped Elson behind with his left arm, and then took the first step forward and dived into the paint.

At this time, he began to raise his right arm with his back to Marbury, and shook his right hand twice in a row.

At the top arc, Marbury pretended to pass the ball to Joe Johnson on the right wing, and after attracting Andre Miller's attention, he suddenly threw the basketball to the basket with both hands.

At the same time, Li Ba's action also attracted the attention of Camby, who was in the low position on the right wing, and he immediately left Jack Voskull and rushed over.

"Miss!" Barkley yelled.

But as soon as he finished speaking, he quickly reacted and shouted excitedly: "NO, it's the hammer..."

"Boom!"

Li Ba accelerated his foot on the second step, jumped straight up, and caught up with the basketball that just flew over his head with his right hand.

At the same time, Camby also jumped up and slapped him.

"boom!"

When the rim trembles, the arena is silent.

"flute!"

The whistle sounded, Camby thugs fouled, an additional free throw.

"Oh, just look at the decibels at the Pepsi Center that have dropped to zero, and you will know how beautiful this lob is, because they are all deeply intoxicated by it!" Barkley joked.

"Hush!!!!!!!!!"

The Pepsi Center immediately responded to Barkley, who made him laugh.

"Bang bang bang..."

Li Ba shot the ball a few times, and then he was about to shoot, but he didn't seem to be ready, so he started to shoot again.

"He should have a blessing action, such as Kidd's blowing kiss and Nash's licking action?" Barkley laughed.

"boom!"

Free throw hit the basket.

40:51, the Suns trailed by 11 points.

Camby jams Jake Voskull, steals the rebound, and the Nuggets attack.
