Chapter 237

Sun attack.

Li Ba has no desire to attack, so as not to be overwhelmed by the wooden bucket, this old guy is still old and strong.

Li Ba didn't want the ball, Marbury was not polite, and made a pick-and-roll with Marion, directly broke into the paint, pulled up a jumper, and hit two points.

Knicks attack.

This time Li Ba didn't stand in a low position anymore, and took Mu Tongbo in and out of the paint area constantly, consuming his physical energy.

Uncle Wooden followed him around, and couldn't help but smile wryly, he's a bad boy, if he goes on like this, he'll stick to it for a while at most.

At this time, Stoudemire asked for the ball after asking for the position, and Penny passed it again.

Stoudemire takes the ball, arches his back once, and immediately slides to the bottom.

Marion pulled, but didn't pull, and Stoudemire went straight to the basket from the baseline.

And just as Stoudemire backed Marion, Li Ba suddenly turned back and ran back, throwing off Cub Tunbo and entering the paint.

Of course he is familiar with Stoudemire's style of play. Stoudemire is stronger than facing the basket, but weaker than back hitting. His strength belongs to explosive quality, and his absolute strength is not strong.

In his rookie season, Stoudemire's basket offense accounted for 56% of his shots, and close-range two-pointers accounted for 32%. This season, some mid-range two-pointers have been added, but the basket offense is still the main one.

According to Li Ba's judgment, Stoudemire will most likely slip the ball, and there is a small chance that he will turn around and make a jump shot.

And based on Marion's jumping ability and blocking ability, his chances of turning around and jumping will be even smaller.

Sure enough, when he pounced into the paint area, he saw Stoudemire complete the slip and pounced over.

"careful!"

Wooden Barrel reminded loudly.

Of course Stoudemire saw Li Ba, and immediately jumped up with one step, holding the ball high with his right arm, smashing the tomahawk into the basket.

At the same time, Li Ba jumped up opposite the basket, crossed the basket with his right arm, and sealed the basketball with one palm.

At this moment, the scene, China and the United States, attracted everyone's attention.

Stoudemire was distracted for a moment, because he found that Li Ba was staring at him when he was blocking the shot, and didn't even watch the ball?

The next moment, with a snap, he felt his right hand shake, and the basketball jumped up extremely quickly, while he rolled backwards in the air, staggered to the ground, his knees softened, and he almost fell down.

At this time, Li Ba jumped up again and grabbed the basketball in the air.

But at the same time, Mu Tongbo had come over and jumped up at the same time, and the two competed for the basketball.

The two bodies collided, but they couldn't fully jump up. Although Mu Tongbo was heavier, his strength was not as good as Li Ba's, but his height was better, and he barely touched the ball first.

However, his aerial confrontation ability is weaker than that of Li Ba, which may also be due to his age. Although he touched the ball first, his body was knocked sideways, so he failed to catch the ball and missed it.

The two landed at the same time, Mu Tongbo looked up at the sky, but Li Ba immediately began to move with all his strength, and the difference came out.

But at this moment, Stoudemire had stabilized his center of gravity and was moving towards the basketball position. At this moment, he found that he was stuck. It turned out that Li Ba moved to the position first and completed his position.

There was no suspense anymore, Li Ba took off for the second time and caught the basketball.

Marbury had already passed the center line, and after receiving the pass, he shook off Penny and went straight to the layup.

4:2, the Suns lead away.

Knicks attack.

Stoudemire asked for the ball again.

"Dikembe, I will cover him again for this ball, do you believe it?" Li Ba said to Mu Tongbo from the low position on the right wing.

"you try."

Mu Tongbo wrapped his arms around Li Ba's waist.

Li Ba used his left hand to push a wooden bucket uncle, leaving the latter in place, while he used his strength to break free and went straight to the paint area.

"Damn it!"

Uncle Mu Tong didn't hold back, and couldn't help cursing.

Stoudemire didn't hit back this time, and directly faced the basket. When he saw Li Ba rushing fiercely, he immediately dribbled the ball with a sideways step, and after flashing past Marion, he jumped up and shot.

Li Ba stopped immediately when he saw it.

"boom!"

At this time, the basketball hit the basket and jumped up.

Li Ba didn't even look at where the ball was, and took a step back, stuck the barrel that was rushing towards him, and then jumped up to grab the ball off his head.

"Stoudemire shot this ball a little too quickly. His shot is not so fast. If he speeds up his shot forcibly, his hit rate will drop." Zhang He understood.

"No way, Mr. Zhang, the Hammer has come to help defend. If he delays his shot, he will face double-teaming. I want to say that in the NBA, there is really no one who can break the double-teaming between Marion and the Hammer. A few." Yu Jia laughed.

Marbury quickly went down again, and Penny desperately returned to defense.

He understands the Suns' fast-break tactics, and returns to defense quickly, but it's not like before. His speed can't keep up with Marbury, so he can only watch Marbury score a layup.

6:2, the Suns lead.

The Knicks attacked again.

"Amare, that's enough, don't go to the low position, bring up the rhythm." D'Antoni shouted at this time.

"Run and bomb?" Frank heard.

Of course he paid attention to the Knicks' game, but D'Antoni's running and bombing did not come out. The conditions were not enough, and the tempo was raised. Is it another tactic?

At this time, Penny was controlling the ball at the top arc, and without much delay, Stoudemire came over to make the wall.

"Pick and roll?" Frank understood.

At this time, Stoudemire blocked Marbury, and Penny took the opportunity to break into the paint from a high position.

In the back, Stoudemire quickly went down and followed Penny into the paint.

Marion switched defenses against Penny, but was stopped by his fast and slow rhythm control. He almost fell, and Penny continued to hit the basket.

At this time, Li Ba broke free from Mu Tongbo's entanglement and entered the basket.

Penny threw himself directly in front of Li Ba, but his ball was gone. Behind him, Stoudemire stomped up with the ball and hit the basket with one arm.

"boom!"

The sun basket was blown.

6:4, the Knicks trailed by 2 points.

"Aww!!!!!!!"

Huge cheers erupted from Madison Arena.

Fortunately, Li Ba took a step back, otherwise it would have been a real buckle.

Just now he was intercepted back and forth by Wooden Barrel and Penny, and lost his movement space. He could only watch Stoudemire's dunk, quite depressed.

"Is this your promise of 'never allow anyone to fly over our heads'? Shit!" Stoudemire landed and rushed to the bottom line Li Ba sprayed.

"Sean, switch defenses."

Li Ba let out a heck. He had no common language with guys like Stoudemire who looked down on defense. He shouted at Marion.

Marbury advances with the ball.

"Mr. Zhang, Iron Hammer defends Stoudemire himself. Do you think he can break the pick-and-roll tactics between Penny and Stoudemire?" Yu Jia asked.

"Stoudemire's main offense still happens at the basket. He doesn't have many mid-range shots and is not accurate, so after he is dismantled, he must enter the paint area, directly attack the basket or take a step before shooting. Such a pick-and-roll tactic is not top quality in the league. It is far inferior to the black and white double evil, and it is also not as good as the quality of the pick-and-roll tactics of the Aliens and Garnett. Stoudemire's mid-range shot is not far enough. Affected their pick-and-roll quality." Zhang Lili laughed.

"You mean, a hammer can crack it?" Yu Jia laughed.

"Sure, Stoudemire must enter the paint zone for shots, and the current defensive area of ​​the Hammers can already cover a certain area outside the paint zone. The ball just now was not because the Knicks did a good job in the pick-and-roll, but after the pick-and-roll. The offensive screen did a good job, two people clamped the hammer, couldn't move, and could only look at Xiao Skou. I think this is the reason why he switched defenses, not how high the quality of the Knicks' pick-and-roll is." Zhang Reasonable laughed.
