454 The confrontation of the superstars

Under the deliberate command of the head coaches of both sides, the two teams fell into a defensive battle in the first quarter.

Xiao Mo controlled the ball to the frontcourt, and the Warriors stepped forward and opened a man to press it. Seeing this Xiao Mo faced Iverson sideways and pushed forward with his strength. Iverson dodged, Xiao Mo broke through and took action, West replaced the defense and almost blocked his ball, bang, hit the iron.

Iverson held the ball and broke into the Cavaliers' penalty area like lightning. Big Ben quickly flashed and stretched his arms to cover him. The answer was not afraid. He singled out Big Ben for a layup, but LeBron chased from behind, bang, a big hat

West picked up the ball from the heel and made a quick layup. The ball turned around and flew out again. Big Ben and Valaijo stuck Chamberlain and James took the rebound.

The Cavaliers made a quick counterattack, James took the ball and made a one-stop layup. His strong momentum made people frightened. He entered the free throw area and put away the ball and made a three-step layup. Chamberlain came up from behind. James raised the ball over his head. Chamberlain slapped him and gave him a big hat without mercy.

On the offense and defense, Iverson dribbled two consecutive times. His body swayed left and right, making Xiao Mo dizzy, then broke through and passed the ball to Chamberlain. Chamberlain held the ball and turned to Valejo and leaned against Valejo, stomped the floor hard to jump up. As a result, Valejo screamed and howled as if he was hit by a truck...

Dudu, the offensive foul was so angry that Chamberlain rolled his eyelids. It was obvious that he was just a fake fall. Valaijo smiled with a treacherous and smug smile. When Chamberlain attacked again, he still forced himself to hit the basket. He screamed again and flew out.

Dudu, the referee looked impatient, and it was Chamberlain's turn to laugh and Valaijo had a sad face.

After the first quarter, the two attacking teams actually scored 18-17 data. Many fans who were purely watching the fun were drowsy. Although there were many offenses, their shooting percentage was too low. However, the roars in the Oracle Arena were still like thunder and lightning. After all, there were more fans watching the ball. The defensive intensity of the two teams made them excited, just like Barkley said:

"Defense wins the championship, man, this is an eternal truth. Today's game should sound a wake-up call for other teams. The Warriors and the Cavaliers' defense has reached the top level. I bet that this year's championship will appear among these two teams."

Smith was in high spirits when he heard the bet. He looked at Barkley with a smile and asked, "What are you betting on, Charles? Remember, you have to hold your second wedding this year, and I have found the female donkey for you.

Barkley's fat face suddenly drooped. My mother, why don't these bastards forget that bet? In fact, many fans are waiting for the day when Barkley and the female donkey get married. EpN has started preparing for this show, which makes Barkley sweat every time he thinks of it.

Barkley had to admit that he had misunderstood again. Chamberlain was obviously a jumping man, and he should be similar to Sean Kamp, who only relies on his physical fitness to play, but why did he develop so many offensive skills? This kid has grown too fast

NHAR spoon statistics show that Chamberlain's 76 score last season was obtained by dunks. This season's data dropped to 3 and was exactly half. The one who scored the most was hooks. His small hook under the basket was full of threats, followed by mid-range shots and free throws.

In other words, Chamberlain is no longer a rough attacker, he has become an attack master.

Barkley is a pure man. Although he is very mean, he is the kind of person who will take action since he promises, so he will not argue and deny his failure. However, this time he plans to drag Smith into the water and just take another gamble. Of course, he may lose, but what does that matter? If there are too many lice, it won't bite people.

"Then let's bet, man, I bet that the championship this season is the Cavaliers or the Warriors, what about you?" Barkley looked at Smith for a moment.

Smith obviously studied this issue, and he bet without hesitation: "I bet on the Spurs or the Lakers, who are the Western Conference champions and who are the championships are the right ones, what are the bets?"

Smith's view is more reliable, which also represents the views of mainstream experts. The Warriors and the Cavaliers are indeed powerful, but the former core is too young, and experts believe that Chamberlain is unreliable at critical moments; while James lacks the domineering aura of leading troops to fight in the playoffs, and it is even more unreliable at critical moments.

The Lakers are different. Their lineup is stronger, and Kobe's performance at critical moments is more convincing - Kobe may have a lower shooting rate. Once he becomes stubborn, he would rather hit iron than pass the ball. But at critical moments, the team needs superstars to do this, rather than pass frequently like James. In the critical battle, James' probability of winning is higher than Kobe, but fans and experts prefer to be optimistic about Kobe. The latter's courage to burn through is the courage of a champion team.

Although the Spurs played poorly this season, the rules of winning the championship in odd years are there. In addition, the Spurs are famous for their favorites in the second half. Fans have concluded that there is a law in the West, that is, "The Rockets look strong, the Mavericks look old, and the Spurs look weak, but at the end of each season, the facts are the opposite.

Smith quickly called his little abacus, and then stared at Barkley waiting for his bet.

Barkley smiled and said, "If I lose, then I will continue to marry a donkey. If I win, then how about we cancel our last bet?"

Fans in front of the TV raised their middle fingers, and many people called the EpNR Ministry directly: "It cannot be cancelled, we have to see Barkley's wedding, Chamberlain is the mastermind."

EpN Smith himself disagrees. He said firmly: "Don't dream, Charles, you must marry a donkey. All you can do now is to think about what love words to the bride at the wedding, so I don't agree with this bet. Also, you asked me to make a bet, I will ask for your bet myself."

Barkley was helpless and could only say in the end: "If you lose, then you will be the bridesmaid of the female donkey, how about it?"

Smith gritted his teeth and said, "Okay, that's it."

I won't lose, Smith said secretly that the Lakers or Spurs must be the championship of this season

Barkley looked at the Warriors and Cavaliers who were playing with a frown. Now it seems that these two teams do not have the bloodline to win the championship. Their defense is very good, but the offense is too bad, right?

Old Nelson also had this dissatisfaction. These damn kids are so bastards. It’s not that they don’t attack when they let them play defensive battles. They only scored 18 points in a quarter. This is unscientific.

Brown on the Cavaliers feels even more unscientific. They average 10 points per game this season, and they have always scored the highest in the first quarter. Now they are only 17 points. It seems that it is good to get 70 points in the whole game. This is the rhythm of dying?

Both sides both put on the starting lineup, and both coaches regarded the second quarter as their home battlefield, and they wanted to grab the second quarter.

The Cavaliers' offense was very determined. The Little Emperor took over the ball as soon as he passed the half and then directed his teammates to run. Jackson followed him closely, West stared at the wings, and the Warriors made 14 joint defenses. The outside players stared at the ball but not at people, and kept changing defenses, and there were always two people waiting for James.

Facing the defense of the two, James showed a cruel smile on his face: "Since you want to double-team me, it's too difficult to use these two people. Let's do something more fun, you'll do it." As he said, James dribbled the ball from the right wing and then pulled it across to the bottom line, launching a strong attack from the bottom line to the penalty area.

Jackson followed him tightly. After reaching the bottom line, James shouted violently, then pushed forward with a strong body, slapped the ball with his right hand like a hero going to die, and rushed forward passionately.

Jackson gritted his teeth and pushed him. James was too powerful and he had to try his best. As a result, James, who was in the breakthrough, suddenly stopped, and Jackson stopped immediately. But James leaned against him with his back and turned around suddenly, then accelerated suddenly. Relying on the reaction force coming from Jackson's chest and his strong burst, he instantly threw away Jackson and rushed to the basket like a sharp arrow.

"Go back" Chamberlain did come back to guard, as if there was a fire between his eyes, and his eyes were full of murderous intent. But James didn't care at all. He watched Chamberlain rush up, and he put away the ball and strode towards him. At the moment when he approached Chamberlain, he raised the ball over his head, then jumped forward, trampled on the floor with both feet, and his body suddenly disappeared in front of Chamberlain. Then, he seemed to have turned into a passenger plane, roaring and starting to take off.

Flying in the air, James avoided Chamberlain. He grabbed the ball with his right hand and raised his arms high. His arms were spreading, and his body was almost parallel to the ground, as if a big roll spread his wings. At the moment of falling, he glared at the ring with his eyes, slashed his arms downwards, and poured the basketball hard into the basket with a roar.

"Wow" A thunder-like cry suddenly sounded in the Oracle Center Stadium. In an instant, the fans' adrenaline secretion spread wildly to their bodies. They stood up and made various roars. This was not their voluntary, but adrenaline dominated their brain nerves, forcing them to vent their shock in their hearts in this way.

After landing, James turned around and looked at Chamberlain coldly. The latter laughed and said, "It's interesting. LeBron's eyes are very interesting. Does he want to kill me? Well, since you provoke me, I have to fight back."

Brown applauded and waved off the court. After Chamberlain entered the penalty area, he immediately shouted: "Boys, go, go, go, double-team that guy."

Iverson took the ball into the three-point line and passed the ball to Chamberlain in Ben Wallace and the double team.

Everyone thought that Chamberlain wanted to knock E.D. Originally, a powerful dunk, the best choice for double-teaming was to pass the ball to his open teammates, but everyone knew that James' dunk just now was the horn of the Cavaliers' attack. As the boss of the Warriors, Chamberlain must react. If he passes the ball at this time, even if the ball is scored, it will be a blow to the team's morale.

Chamberlain had to choose a dunk, which was everyone's idea, and Da Ben and Da also thought of it, so the two started to double-team Chamberlain since he held the ball, trying not to give him the chance to hold the ball.

Of course, it is impossible to limit people of Chamberlain's level to not even get the ball. Chamberlain jumped up and received the ball. After landing, Da Ben and Da narrowed their defense at the basket and limited him. However, Chamberlain did not force himself or hit him, but found a gap and got out like a swimming fish.

"Dog shit" Da Ben cursed, "You coward, don't you dare come in to fight?"

Chamberlain smiled coldly, he directly retreated from the penalty area and dared not let him go. The kid's mid-range shot was very accurate, so he left the penalty area to force defense.

Looking at Da Ben who was staring at the side of Big E in front of him, Chamberlain easily slapped the ball and slowly wandered along the arc of the penalty area. It seemed that Da Ben and Da defense blocked his way. He kept swimming for seven or eight seconds, and Chamberlain did not attack. Seeing this scene, the Cavaliers fans cheered.

Chamberlain still sneered, his eyes aimed at the timer on the rebound, and there were 6 seconds left for this attack, very good, time has come.

Just as the big E-Boss was about to come up and press him to grab the ball, Chamberlain suddenly moved, his frequency of slapping the ball suddenly increased, and his heart suddenly lifted up, and then he saw Chamberlain leaning forward on the opposite side.

Da subconsciously hind legs, but Chamberlain's footsteps did not move. This way, the two of them had a little distance, and the center of gravity also changed. This distance was the buffer that Chamberlain needed to sprint. This time he really speeded up and rushed to Da's side with one step forward.

After gaining great defensive experience, he knew that since his center of gravity had changed, if the opponent accelerated, he might not be able to keep up. He would immediately change his movements and defend himself in close combat.

Seeing the big stride forward, Chamberlain smiled again. His legs muscles suddenly tightened and as hard as granite. Wild power emerged from every mitochondria to support the explosion of his legs. Chamberlain took the first step very slowly, but when he reached the second step, it seemed like lightning. No one could see clearly how he stepped forward. It was just a big feeling that he had a flash of eyes and the person was gone.
