Before the game began, the Knicks coaching team finally determined the combat plan: in the first half, Li Zhen led the offensive and connected the players to eliminate the strength and formation of the Cavaliers with constant running and pick-and-roll.

In the second half, Li Zhen will appear as a shooting guard and fall to the low post. Zach and Eddie will both float out to clear the space.

When this tactical thinking is certain.

The competition begins.

The five starting players on the Knicks are: Foyer, Randolph, Francisco Garcia, Matt Barnes, and Li Zhen.

The Cavaliers are: Ilgoskas, Ben Wallace, Szebiak, LeBron James, and Deronti West.

This lineup of Cleveland is a typical half-court position lineup, and it is mainly defense!

Once they drag the rhythm of the game into their rhythm, the Knicks will have a hard time breaking out of the steel cage.”

"I still think... the Knicks will be very passive."

Espn specially designed the famous data expert Hollinger tonight, and his partner voted for the first MVP vote for Li Zhen Reggie Miller. It was quite a bit of a laning flavor.

"The Cavaliers' defense must have great advantages. They are simple and heavy, and strictly follow the academic defensive system. McBrown does have unique features in defense. However, their offensive system is too simple. Once LeBron and James are restricted, they will be very sad." Reggie Miller provides his opinion.

"I don't think anyone will defend LeBron. The Knicks do not have the ability to lock Bruce on the outside, and New York's penalty area defense is also very clumsy. No matter how much the New York media boasts about Eddie Griffin already has 80% of Kevin Garnett's strength, he is not Kevin Garnett after all. It is difficult for him to interfere with LeBron at 208."

"To a certain extent, LeBron's opponent has never been his opponent, but the person behind the opponent. Why did he become a bricklayer when he met the Pacers, and he couldn't find North when he met the Nuggets. He couldn't beat the Pistons in 2006 but could score 48 points in 2007? The answer is Peak O'Neal Jr., Peak Camby and Peak Ben Wallace."

"For LeBron, cutting into the basket is never difficult, but those inside lines with strength, height and long arms in the penalty area are the monsters that will prevent him from finding layups."

"Does the Knicks have such a player? The answer is no. Foyer is too short and inflexible. Zach Randolph doesn't know how to defend at all. Eddie Griffin is more like a wing defender. His confrontation and height cannot limit LeBron."

"Frankly speaking, except Swift, the Knicks don't even have a seven-foot player. However, with Swift's mind, there is no difference between him playing and giving away points."

Hollinger is indeed a data expert, and he is indeed aware of everything.

As the famous trash talk king in NBA, Reggie Miller was so blocked that he couldn't speak.

He just emphasized: "Bruce will never sit and wait for death, his style of play is very flexible."

This kind of subjective judgment sounds unconvincing.

Beep!

During the analysis of the two, Foyer and Ilgoskas had already completed the jump ball... The two-meter-two-one European giant was easily ranked first in the basketball, although he just slightly put his feet on... On the basketball court, height is the most fixed and direct talent.

However, when Igorskas pulled the basketball racquet towards Deronti West, Li Zhen rushed out quickly, and his top explosive power and speed instantly seized the lead... Bang!

He grabbed the basketball and advanced toward the Cavaliers halftime.

Deronti West pressed his body tightly. The previously exposed video gave him a lot of inspiration. He decided to follow Westbrook's way to block Li Zhen.

West was the 24th pick in the first round in 2004. He had been working in Boston before. Later, he was ruthlessly replaced by La Garondo. This season he moved to Seattle and now he has arrived in Cleveland, becoming the right-hand man of King James.

He is fast and has a solid style of playing, but his shooting level is average. Except for his higher seniority, he is considered a well-known point guard. (If you want to find a similar player, it may be Rivers Jr.)

Deronti West is full of confidence in himself. He firmly believes that he will become the hero of sniper Bruce tonight and is even more respected by James's family.

So, he even began to release the trash talk attack to Li Zhen: "I have studied every way of breakthrough. Your ability to get rid of is not as strong as you think. You often deliberately swing left and then break to the right... Surrender, it will be your disaster tonight."

Forehead….

Li Zhen was stunned.

He didn't expect that Deronti West's mouth could be like a machine gun, and he also made sure that every word could be clear... Your quick-mouthed skill should be a rapper, not a player. No matter how bad it is... it's okay to have an American Kato.

"Are you sure?"

Li Zhen asked him for fun.

"certainly!"

West was extremely decisive and even advanced.

He thought that what the rookie could do would definitely be better.

However, he obviously did not have that fate.

His physical talent is far from that of the young divine turtle, and his defense level is not very good.

More importantly, why should Li Zhen let this crooked date be released?

It feels stomachy when you look.

Immediately, Li Zhen changed direction quickly like thunder. As Deronti said, he was indeed from left to right, his body was like the long swordsman in the world, wiping Deronti West's ankle sharply. He didn't even understand what was going on, and the center of gravity was still swaying to the left. Li Zhen had already galloped from the right side of his body, as if a sudden lightning flash in the night.

No. This is not the case in the video.

West was still puzzled. Li Zhen had already entered the free throw line. At this time, LeBron and James quickly came to defend.

He blocked Li Zhen's pace with his strong body and rapid speed.

When Li Zhen raised his eyes and passed the ball to Barnes, he found that Szebiak quickly filled up the ball. Li Zhen wanted to pass the ball again, but James had already come on his body... The Cavaliers' defensive system was indeed not a flaw, and it was much better than the trainees who fought for themselves in the Philadelphia Seventy-six.

So Li Zhen continued to move forward.

Zach wisely raised the news at this time, and he provided a cover for Li Zhen. Li Zhen used the cover to quickly get rid of James.

And violently accelerated and headed straight to the penalty area. As a master of defense, Ben Wallace won the best defensive player, and he quickly pursued him.

But after all, he was old. He was more than a beat slower, and could only watch Li Zhen fly in the penalty area, facing the big tree-like defense of Ilgoskas, and easily pick up the basket.

The fusion of talents made his layup feel more and more soft.

"Bruce's offense is becoming more and more convenient, just like a knife cutting butter, moist and natural."

Reggie Miller praised Lee Jin on TV.

Before that, he claimed that Deronti West's defense was like a mosaic in a Japanese movie, and could not capture key information at all.

Forehead…….

Old men are knowledgeable and good at metaphors.

But no matter what, this round revealed Deronti West's innocence, and all his wishful thinking before the game was smashed.

McBrown touched his chin helplessly.

He originally thought that West's joining would make the team's No. 1 position stronger, but now... it's still so vulnerable.

Unlike the distressed McBrown, Isaiah Thomas had already performed his show-off ceremony amid the cheers of the audience. He unbuttoned his suit and swung his hands back, as if a blower was blowing at him, blowing his pride and indulging.

"Basketball is that simple."

The confident figure of the smiling assassin is projected onto the large screen in the VIP box.

James Dolan subconsciously applauded and praised: So handsome.

Forehead….

David Stern, Adam Xiaohua and others looked at each other, but Donny Walsh, who was accompanying him, looked natural... These are all routine operations.

David Stern has always disliked Isaiah Thomas. During the time of the Bad Boys, he hated those guys. He wanted to build a healthy league, and no matter what, the Pistons delayed his God-making plan. After Isaiah Thomas retired and became a manager, he made many troubles. In Toronto, Indiana often disobeyed the league.

After arriving in New York, he even beat the good cards, making the Knicks a well-known garbage contract brigade. Various negative scandals in locker rooms also damaged the NBA's reputation.

However, in the past year, he has indeed achieved impressive results.

"David, how many points do you think we can win tonight?"

James Dolan suddenly asked Stern.

Forehead….

Stern was stunned.

He really didn't think about this. But he felt that... Cleveland's winning odds might be bigger, after all, all experts think so. Moreover, the Cavaliers have super killers that cannot be defended, so the Knicks still have fewer cards.

He was hesitating about how to answer, and LeBron James rushed suddenly, forcibly destroying Garcia's defense, then headed straight to the penalty area, and finally forced the basketball into the ball with Foyer's pull.

It is really a courage that thousands of people are not worthy of.

The referee immediately sounded a foul and signaled 2+1.

"What a good ball."

David Stern exclaimed happily.

Deep down in his heart, of course, he still hopes that the new No. 23 of the Alliance will become a new ruler. The last round of God-making movement will push the influence of NBA to its peak. Now, he can't wait to create another god... LeBron James has this potential.

"If Bruce's attack is like a knife-cut butter, then LeBron is just a hammer that smashes all the breadcrumbs."

Hollinger said tit-for-tat.

He did not shy away from his position: "I even think LeBron can score 50 points tonight because no one can stop his offensive. Although their forward line has many good defenders, their ability to confrontation is too weak. The defenders in the penalty area also have their own problems. What should I use to block the Chosen Son?"

Reggie Miller spread his hands and did not argue.

brush!

He also hit the penalty, and LeBron's hand feels very hot tonight.

After scoring the goal, he also clenched his fists and waved them twice in the air. He was bound to win tonight.

Turn around.

The Cavaliers still use Deronti West to pester Li Zhen, trying to consume Li Zhen's physical strength.
