Chapter 359 Conflict! James' mother is out of control!
After the dunk, the whole audience was silent!
If this ball were played at the American West Arena, it would definitely detonate the audience, but this is the Quicken Loans Arena, the Cavaliers' territory.
Only a few Suns fans who traveled with the team cheered, including Chen Yan's parents.
Like the previous two games, Chen Yan's parents also came to the away game tonight to cheer for their son.
The reason why Chen Yan brought his parents to the United States was because he wanted them to witness and participate in his first championship. There would be no point in leaving his parents in Phoenix.
Chen Yan's heavy dunk hit the Cavaliers to a certain extent, but their morale quickly recovered.
In the next offensive round, O'Neal attacked in the low post to attract double teams and pass the ball to the outside.
James received the ball at the top of the arc and immediately passed it to Gibson at a 45-degree angle outside.
After receiving the ball, Gibson quickly transferred it to Larry Hughes in the bottom corner, who hit an open three-pointer!
2 to 5!
Sun attack round.
After halftime, Nash suddenly changed his rhythm and started to rush inside.
Near the free throw line, Nash found Raja Bell with a range move.
Laga Bell didn't have a good chance and lobbed it to Stoudemire inside.
After passing the ball, Laga Bell immediately ran to the other bottom corner in order to open up space for Stoudemire to attack.
Stoudemire quickly turned around, faced the frame and took one step back to directly hit him!
Stoudemire's offensive routine was seen through by the Cavaliers, and Cavaliers point guard Gibson covered him the moment he started.
Duncan would definitely have scored this ball, but Stoudemire is the kind of inside player with a stronger desire to attack!
Fearless of double-teams, Stoudemire beats them to take action!
"Bang!"
The basketball hit the neck of the basket and popped out.
"Amar'e Stoudemire's two consecutive offensive starts were not smooth, which is not a good signal for the Suns." The moment the sound of iron was heard, Zhang Lili said slightly worriedly in the commentary box.
Director Xu agreed with Zhang Lili's view: "The away game seems to make Stoudemire a little acclimated to the away situation. He must adjust immediately. As the core of the Suns' inside, it is very important whether he can open up!"
Turning around, the knight continued to attack.
James directed the traffic at the top of the arc, and passed the ball behind his hips to Varejao near the elbow.
After receiving the ball, Varejao raised his head and used a fake move to hit Diaw.
Then he stepped into the basket with two steps and hit the board successfully!
2 to 7.
The Cavaliers played smoothly and showed extremely high offensive efficiency.
Such a start and the overwhelming noise from the fans at the scene made the Suns players feel a lot of pressure.
In the next offensive round, Nash suddenly found Chen Yan. After receiving the ball, Chen Yan quickly distributed the non-stick ball to the bottom corner.
Ragnarok Bale hesitated, and the opportunity was fleeting.
After holding the ball on the spot for three seconds, Laga Bell tried to hand the ball back to Chen Yan.
James' quick eyesight and quick hands determined the passing intention of Raja Bell, and the moment he made a flying dive and touched the ball, it also changed the original trajectory of the basketball.
Chen Yan also reacted very quickly, turning around and chasing the ball.
At this stage of the finals, both sides must compete for every ball.
Chen Yan and James collided while accelerating in a straight line.
"Bang!"
Both sides fell on their backs!
"Beep!"
The referee's whistle sounded. Strictly speaking, this was a 50-50 goal, but the referee still awarded it directly to the Cavaliers.
Chen Yan didn't argue much. This was the advantage brought by the home court, but he was still holding back his anger.
Knight's attack round.
O'Pang needs a deep position this time, and James can get it right away.
After catching the ball, Ao Pang half-turned around to prepare for the hook, but Diaw and Stoudemire directly hugged him down.
"Whoosh!"
"Whoosh!"
Standing on the free throw line, O'Pang made a rare two free throws!
On the one hand, it's good luck, and on the other hand, it's inseparable from his hard work. According to Kecheng media reports, O'Neal came to the gym 4 hours before the start of G3, with the purpose of practicing extra free throws.
Needless to say how rare this is for a 36-year-old veteran, especially a veteran like Ao Pang.
It's hard to be happy in the end, but at least O'Neal's efforts paid off in these two free throws.
2 to 9.
D'Antoni called the team's first timeout of the game.
The Sun seemed to be in trouble from the start.
What makes D'Antoni most angry is not that the players can't make shots, but that they have become a little timid in taking shots.
The 2-0 lead with the total score became a burden for the team. In the third game, the Suns wanted to win too much, which led to their mentality of wanting to win but afraid of losing.
"Reduce unnecessary mistakes, play our own basketball, and let go of shooting! If you don't make the shot, it's mine!" D'Antoni's first words during the timeout were to relieve the pressure on the team.
Before he spoke the second sentence, D'Antoni glanced at Chen Yan: "Chen, come back from the timeout to strengthen your personal shots, and use your scoring to drive the team's offense!"
"Understood!" Chen Yan responded decisively, because this was what he was thinking.
After returning from the timeout, Nash strictly followed the head coach's instructions and fed Chen Yan a ball as soon as he came up.
Near the elbow area, Chen Yan got the opportunity to challenge Larry Hughes 1v1.
Chen Yan quickly dropped the ball, followed by two consecutive crotch strikes, and then suddenly bounced up!
Rhythm dribbling!
Larry Hughes didn't stumble, but Chen Yan's shooting rhythm was so good that the basketball passed Larry Hughes's fingertips and drew an arc before falling into the net!
"Whoosh!"
4 to 9.
"Good shot!" Director Xu shouted excitedly.
Zhang Lili on the side was equally excited: "Beautiful! This is how you have to play the ball!"
The Cavaliers serve from the baseline.
Gibson threw the ball to James just after halftime.
After receiving the ball, James moved to the right in a wide range.
Larry Hughes called for a pick-and-roll after receiving the ball.
Using Varejao's screen, Larry Hughes shot from mid-range.
This is his best shot.
The basketball rolled around on the edge of the rim and then came out. The Cavaliers were filled with regret at home.
However, the sound of regret immediately turned into cheers before it ended.
It turned out that O'Neal, who was in a good position inside, grabbed this offensive rebound!
When O'Neal landed, his feet were already very close to the baseline. When his body was about to lose balance and fall out of bounds, O'Neal threw the ball away.
O'Neal's pass was very powerful and went directly to the three-point line.
The moment Gibson took two steps back to catch the ball, a black shadow flashed in front of him!
Chen Yan successfully stole the ball with lightning speed!
After stealing the ball, Chen Yan advanced alone and launched a fast break!
Although Chen Yan has eighteen kinds of weapons in his arsenal, fast attack has always been his most signature deadly weapon!
On the Cavaliers side, only Varejao, who had just pulled outside the three-point line to cover his teammates, returned to half court.
Chen Yan drove into the penalty area with a blast of the accelerator, ignored Varejao's defense and took off directly!
Varejao has almost become Chen Yan's background. He dunked on him several times during the regular season. In the opening round of G3, Chen Yan also rode Varejao to complete an exaggerated head-on dunk, so
It is very normal for Chen Yan not to see Varejao at all.
"Boom!"
With a loud noise, Chen Yan dunked over Varejao again!
Varejao's background board count was 1. After landing, he shook his head in disgrace.
"Extreme fast attack!"
"It's really fast! When I look at Chen Yan's fast break, I feel like I'm watching a fast-forward version."
"I really admire Varejao."
"After this series, will Varejao become the insider with the highest number of international appearances in Chen Yan's collection?"
"The biggest contributor to the Suns' offense in this round - O'Neal - first grabbed an offensive rebound and then directly assisted Chen Yan to quickly score."
Domestic netizens continue to make comments.
James saw that Chen Yan had the momentum to open up his scoring account and decisively switched defense with Larry Hughes.
Different from the personal marking in the last game, James was obviously much tougher in the G3 game!
Several consecutive rounds of hand-to-hand combat also reminded fans of Chen Yan vs. Kobe Bryant in the Western Conference Finals!
In fact, in terms of physical fitness alone, James is on a higher level than Kobe, but Kobe's willpower is stronger and he can fight to the end every round!
But tonight, James is obviously determined. He does not want to be swept in the finals for two consecutive years, which will affect his future historical status. James attaches great importance to this.
The two of them were constantly pulling and pushing each other!
It can be seen that James has no reservations tonight!
It is very painful to be entangled with a muscle stick like James, especially when the referee turns a blind eye.
This is the stage of the finals. The referee will not easily blow off the star players of both sides. Kobe understands this, and James naturally understands this.
After experiencing the Western Conference Battle, Chen Yan also had experience in this area.
Faced with James's continuous entanglement, Chen Yan directly hit his killer move while running without the ball on the baseline!
"Bang!"
Chen Yan hit James in the chest with his elbow.
Chen Yan said that he learned from Kobe Bryant about this elbow. Can you withstand it?
James gritted his teeth and followed. It had to be said that his body really seemed to be made of iron.
The two fought from the left baseline to the right baseline. The muscle collision made the fans very enjoyable to watch, and even felt a bit like an arena gladiator!
James had the advantage in strength, but Chen Yan's movement was more agile. In order to prevent Chen Yan from slipping away from his eyes, James kept tugging on his jersey or arm.
When Chen Yan ran back and was about to go around to catch the ball, he suddenly felt a pulling force coming from behind him.
Just when Chen Yan lost his balance, he turned around very cleverly and hugged James, and the two of them fell off the court!
The fans at the scene burst into cheers. Seeing this scene, the referee finally couldn't bear it anymore and stopped the game.
He was afraid that if it continued like this, the game would turn into a wrestling match between James and Chen Yan.
Just when Chen Yan stood up, a black woman yelled at him and rapped a curse word.
Chen Yan could tell at a glance that this was James' mother. He had often seen her on TV and in magazines, both in his previous life and in this life.
Chen Yan originally thought that James' mother was just venting her anger for a moment, but she didn't expect that the more she sprayed, the more excited she became, and in the end she almost threw herself on Chen Yan.
It was obvious that her emotions were out of control!
She saw clearly the elbow that Chen Yan gave James at the bottom line just now. This was her way of seeking justice for her son.
At this moment, an unexpected scene happened.
James rushed to her mother and yelled: "Shut up!"
Just when James' mother looked confused, James yelled again: "Sit down! Go back to your place!"
It was very rare for James to get angry in public, and he was still angry at his mother.
James's purpose for doing this is simple. Her mother may be banned from the league for life due to her excessive behavior. This is the last thing James wants to see.
