Chapter 394: Covering

Knights attack.

Big Z still mentioned the high catch.

Li Ba defended himself, but still let go.

"Here we go again," Barkley yelled.

At this time, James and Gooden immediately cut to the basket, from the left and right wings.

Just as they cut to the basket, Li Ba suddenly took a step forward and got close to Big Z.

His chest pushed the big Z hard, and at the same time, the two super long arms and big hands completely sealed the space above the latter, airtight, and there was no way to pass the ball to the basket.

But what made Big Z sweat even more was that Li Ba's powerful force made him unable to stand, and his center of gravity was being pushed backward.

Big Z's center of gravity fell backwards, his right foot took a step back, and his left foot barely stayed in place. He didn't walk, but he was already very embarrassed.

Li Ba knew exactly where the ball was without looking.

At this time, when Big Z's center of gravity was unstable, he suddenly turned sideways, emerged from the left side, stretched his right arm upwards, raised the ball with his right palm, and lifted the ball from Big Z's hands into the sky, and then quickly turned back and stuck. Bit, stuck big Z, waiting for the basketball to fall.

"oh!"

There was an exclamation in the arena.

"Steal it?"

Yu Jia shouted excitedly.

"Defend!"

Zhang Lili shouted excitedly.

"Snapped!"

Li Ba took off to grab the ball and threw it forward while it was still in the air.

"Perfect defense! Nice tackling! Show from the Hammers, but it's just his routine every game..."

The roar of the Sun team's on-site commentator rang out again, and the unbridled praise of Li Ba won bursts of boos from the home fans.

When Li Ba picked the ball, Marbury turned around and went down. At this time, he reached the center line, just in time to catch the ball, and then made a quick layup.

"Well, I have to admit that it is still very difficult to limit the defense of the Hammers with the tactics of stacking people under the basket."

Kenny Smith smiled wryly.

Barkley laughed and said: "In addition to the mid-range shooting and passing ability, the opposing center must also have the ability to single-handedly challenge the hammer. But there are very few people in the league who can single-handedly challenge the hammer! "

Kenny Smith continued with a wry smile: "Yes, the Hammer is stronger than the playoffs now, and it's only been a few months. I think Tim Duncan may not be able to limit the Hammer if he uses that rogue tactic now." gone."

"Judging from the movement of the hammer, he's faster again, which really makes him stronger," Barkley said.

The knights attack again.

Eric Snow advanced to the frontcourt and made a tactical gesture while landing at the top of the arc.

Seeing his tactical gesture, Big Z raised to a high position again.

Although the high position tactic failed twice, Snow still wanted to use this tactic.

The reason is simple, Big Z can't stand in the low position at all, there is no place for him.

And the hammer is in the low position, which obviously has a greater defensive advantage, so although the high position may also fail, as the second offensive point, the big Z is stronger in the high position than in the low position.

As soon as Big Z reached the high position and asked for the ball according to the tactics, Gooden, who was in the low position on the right wing, immediately stepped up and came over to do a pick-and-roll for him.

But his pick and roll is not to block the front, but to block the back.

Then, Big Z bypassed Li Ba and Gooden and moved towards the basket.

Seeing this, Marion had no choice but to dislocate and switch to defend against Big Z, defending to the basket.

At this time, Eric Snow passed the ball, and passed it directly to Big Z.

Big Z received the ball, and Marion immediately stuck to the former, cutting off the attack line between the former and the basket.

Big Z was about to feint away from Marion when James cut to the basket from the left wing, rushed to the basket, blocked Battier on the left with his left arm, and demanded the ball with his right hand.

Big Z passes the ball immediately.

At this moment, at the free throw line, Li Ba had already escaped from Gooden's entanglement, returned to the defense in two steps, stretched his left arm, and cut on the passing line.

Seeing Li Ba coming down, James rushed forward with all his strength, and stretched his right arm forward as much as possible.

"Snapped!"

Before James could catch the ball, Li Ba snapped his fingers and the pass was cut off.

"Shet!"

His eyes were tearing apart, James clapped his hands depressingly, he only hated that his arms were too short, if only they could be a foot longer.

"Oh, oh, it's another beautiful steal!" The Sun's on-site commentator's proud voice sounded quickly.

In the frontcourt of the Suns, Marbury, who was about to come off, was entangled by Snow, but Barbosa was very fast, throwing away McKinino by a large margin, and gave Marbury an assist after receiving the ball.

59:35, the Suns led by 24 points.

Knights attack.

James is on the left wing, holding Battier for the ball.

The high-level passing and cutting tactics failed three times in a row, and only succeeded once. He wanted to do it himself.

"Snapped!"

James received the ball with one palm, put his left arm against Battier, dribbled the ball with his right hand, stepped on the spot with both feet, and began to rush forward.

"..."

Li Ba saw James' very unclear starting pace, and felt a grass-mud horse running over his head.

It's not that Battier's defense is bad. He even defended Kobe alone with good results, but facing James' strong crushing, he felt powerless, and he was stunned.

"Bang bang..."

"Squeak..."

James rolled into the paint like a heavy tank.

At this time, Li Ba moved to the basket, Big Z was still in the low position on the left wing, and reached out to James for the ball. Battier immediately switched defenses, threw James, and stopped in front of Big Z.

James entered the paint and rushed to Li Ba with the ball.

Li Ba stood one step ahead of the reasonable collision zone, and greeted James who was rushing forward with all his strength.

Looking at that ferocious old face, feeling the huge explosive power that emanated from it, huge pressure rushed to his face.

"Squeak..."

Amidst the sharp friction of the sneakers, James slammed the ball like a beast, accelerating and accelerating.

Liba, on the other hand, stood firm like a flood control dam, standing upright without any retreat.

Two meters...one meter...

At this moment, if sparks hit the earth.

At this moment, the attention of all the fans in the audience and the tens of millions of fans watching the game from all over the world were focused on the paint area of ​​the Suns.

"squeak!"

With force under his feet, James suddenly changed direction at a small angle just before the collision.

"Boom!"

The moment the two staggered, their left shoulders collided.

James has strong strength and explosive power, and with the speed of rushing up, he has formed a huge kinetic energy, and the powerful Li Ba was also knocked away.

But his right foot didn't move, only his left foot was knocked back a step.

And James is also charging slowly, his feet are stagnant, and he almost stops.

But after all, he is a fierce man with extremely high quality. He exerted force again and continued his charge. He stepped on the ground, his body exploded, he grabbed the ball with his right hand, and smashed the basket with one arm.

Li Ba stepped back with his left foot, stepped on it firmly, and then instantly took the first step forward. He stepped forward with his right foot, his body suddenly rose, and he turned sideways in the air to his shoulders. He stretched his left arm forward, and pressed his left palm against the locked basketball. .

"Snapped!"

Amid the slap, the basketball jumped up.

"boom!"

James smashed the basket with one palm, but he was depressed to death.

"3!"

At this moment, Barkley shouted excitedly.

"Nice cover..."

The roar of the Suns' on-site commentator sounded.
