Chapter 354 Grimm's Fairy Tales, Final Climax!
In the second quarter, the Knicks started with Whiteside, Battier, Danny Green, Lu Wei, and Marbury.
The Heat replaced James Jones, the younger brother who will be with James the longest in the future.
James, who scored 12 points in the first quarter, rested while playing in the second quarter, and Wade made room for him. This time, the Flash missed the three-pointer.
Wade's career three-point shooting rate is only 28.7%. Although the "forest combination" has gone down, the "big white side" that is still leveling is also a high wall.
Under Chandler's teaching, Whiteside's defense has improved significantly. He only needs to know how to eat cakes in offense. The Knicks don't ask much of him.
Marbury patiently looked for opportunities, James Jones has a stable 3-pointer, and he can even participate in the three-point contest better than many people, but he can't keep up with Danny Green's ghostly movement in defense.
The Knicks seem to be using a corner screen tactic, but in fact Battier also proposed it. This is an elevator pick-and-roll.
Whiteside slowed James Jones, and Battier blocked James who was about to help defend.
Danny Green is very grateful to the Knicks coaching staff and Lin Yi. He was just a little transparent in the Cavaliers, and he can have his own tactics after coming to the Knicks.
"Danny, in the Knicks you will be punished if you dare not throw!"
"Danny, if you go up and throw it boldly, what are you afraid of?"
"Danny, believe in yourself, can't you beat me in three-point games?"
If you want to use one sentence to describe Danny Green's mood in the Knicks.
That was definitely: Coach, I want to play basketball.
Green's shooting speed is about the same as Lin Yi remembers. Everyone on the Knicks' bench is ready to celebrate Danny Green. Whenever Green hits a three-pointer, the Knicks will uniformly do left-handed back and forth. The movement of touching the right hand.
Catch the ball, pull your belly in, shake your wrists.
The basketball draws a rainbow-like arc.
Ding! Your friend "Grimm's Fairy Tales" is online!
Swish——!
26 to 30!
After scoring, Danny Green looked at his teammates who were celebrating for him on the bench,
He made a three-point gesture with his right hand.
The close-up shot was also given to Lin Yi at this moment, and Green ran to the sidelines to give Lin Yi a high five.
"The Knicks are such an amazing team ... It feels like anyone who comes to the Knicks can plug and play and make an impact immediately." Kenny Smith said.
"Including Stephen (Marbury), have you seen Stephen playing according to tactics?" Barkley said.
Green at this moment finally reminded LeBron James of his first meeting with Green.
Green was very timid at the time, because the man standing in front of him was one of the best players in the league: LeBron James.
James patted him on the shoulder kindly at the time, "Welcome to Cleveland."
Green was delighted.
He excitedly told his former North Carolina teammates that James actually patted my shoulder and talked to me.
So Green went to ask the coach how he should improve himself.
Mike Brown gave him a smile and told him to wait.
But after waiting for a while, the Cavaliers' coaching staff seemed to have forgotten this little transparency.
Slowly, Green found that he could only stand by the drinking fountains in Cleveland. Every night he could hear the emperor encouraging the whole team. Maybe the Cavaliers are really a good team, but Green is in Cleveland doesn't feel his own presence.
Until that day, it was one of the few conversations Green had with James, because on that day, Green was going to New York, and the Cavaliers threw him to the Knicks like a burden.
James thought for a while, "Danny, come on!"
Green said thank you to James. James is indeed great, but Cleveland made Green feel a kind of loss.
Once, he was the proud son of the North Carolina Four Young Masters.
The reality is so cruel, the NBA is sometimes so cold.
New York.
The first time Green and Lin Yi met, Lin Yi smiled and touched Green's head, "Practice three-pointers and defense well, you will be an important member of us."
important member...
"I'll give you playing time, but you have to practice three-pointers!" D'Antoni said to Green.
playing time...
D'Antoni didn't break his promise. Even though Green often missed shots in his rookie season, D'Antoni also gave him a lot of time.
"In the Knicks, if there is an open space and you don't shoot resolutely, you will be punished." Because he did not dare to shoot when there was an open space in the game, Danny Green was asked to sing in the locker room and at the same time in the training session the next day I ran ten laps first.
Green grew to like the Knicks.
Lin Yi discovered that Green was actually a living treasure.
The Knicks teasing team teasing success +1!
Green worked hard on three-pointers from the corner, corner and top arc in the summer.
Because Lin Yi and the coach told him that he must practice three-pointers from all positions.
All pitchers grow up in blacksmithing.
"Danny, come on, today we are going to practice how to pick and roll for you." One day, on the training ground, when Green knew that the Knicks were going to arrange tactics for him, he pointed his finger at himself in surprise.
my tactics?
Yes, this is my Danny Green tactic!
How can I live up to the trust of my coach and teammates?
At the American Airlines Arena, Green single-handedly defended Wade, who was a marginal player in the Cavaliers a year ago, and forced Wade to make a step throw. Dang Dang, Green heard the sound of the basketball hitting the iron, but he did not turn back. Grab the rebound.
Because he has more important things to do.
Go ahead and run!
That is my battlefield!
Green rushed to the Heat's position.
Whiteside threw the ball to Green with the long swing that Lin Yi taught him.
Like the New York Giants assassinating the New England Patriots.
Running back Green, touchdown!
Catch the ball, pull your belly in, shake your wrists!
"Three-pointers that change offense, you have to shoot when you have a chance!"
"Danny, my idol, the great Kobe Bryant once said that even if the first 30 strikes are made, the 31st strike must be resolute."
"Many people use this to black Kobe, but as a pitcher, you have to have this mentality."
Swish——!
At the American Airlines Arena, Green patted his chest excitedly, he looked up to the sky and screamed, did you see that? Me, I can play in the NBA!
Let the so-called North Carolina people either become superstars or fade out of the league to hell!
Staying here is far more important than anything else!
29 to 30!
Spoelstra called for a timeout, and Green, surrounded by his teammates, returned to the bench.
Seeing the big hand stretched out towards him, Green offered to hand over his head.
"Good job!" Green looked up at Lin Yi, and Lin Yi's smile was always so warm.
This sentence is well done, worth a thousand words.
On the Heat's side, James, who was panting heavily, sighed. He looked up at the ceiling of the American Airlines Arena, his eyes a little confused.
Wade patted him on the shoulder, "LeBron, we have to win this game."
James nodded, yes, must win.
...
"Charles, I think the Heat must face the most difficult situation now." Kenny Smith pointed to the scoreboard and said.
"That's right, the Heat didn't take advantage of the Knicks' opportunity to come off the bench to increase points. Tonight Danny became the Knicks' surprise player again." Barkley sighed, why are his predictions so accurate today?
44 to 45, the Heat are only one point ahead of the Knicks.
James didn't rest for a minute today, and that feeling of powerlessness came again.
Why, why just can't get over the high wall of the Knicks?
It's a pity that Lin Yi didn't know what James was thinking at this time.
You know, Lin-Yi is mine in the future and now, but it took a lot of effort to build this set of iron-blooded battle formations dedicated to the Conte Heat.
In the second half of the second quarter, the Knicks switched back to their starting lineup, and Green continued to stay on the court. Mr. Tony's defense is not good today, so he will increase the pitcher.
On the Heat's side, it is also their starting lineup.
James was as majestic as ever, and Wade used his first step that surprised the world to assault the Knicks' position.
Bosh tried his best to defend Lin Yi.
The offensive and defensive quality of this Valentine's Day battle is so high that it has far surpassed most games this season.
The Heat's players tried their best to defend their lead, but the Knicks always had a countermeasure.
James slapped his thighs while defending in the second quarter, and even had his hair tie knocked off on one play.
However......
With 1:31 left at the end of the second quarter, the Knicks hit a climax that shouldn't have happened in this era.
The desperate black eight warriors made people feel the significance and value of three-pointers in modern basketball for the first time.
The single-core Maverick announced loudly: Now, the league has entered the three-point era.
But only the future Warriors can really feel the horror brought by the three-pointer.
Chris Bosh definitely deserves his NBA teammates tonight.
In the ten rounds he played against Lin Yi, he defended seven of them.
For the eleventh time, Bosh defended equally seriously. He opened his arms and lowered his center of gravity.
He was not fooled by any of Lin Yi's fake moves. He is also a master of fighting and retreating. He knows how to limit Lin Yi, just like he did in the Raptors last season.
But Lin Yi didn't intend to reason with Bosh.
After taking a step back, Lin Yi was almost 2 meters away from the three-point line, and he threw the three-pointer as if joking.
The infinite range didn't light up, but that doesn't mean Lin Yi didn't dare to shoot.
You must know that in the hundreds of days and nights in Davidson, his favorite thing to do is to shoot ultra-long three-pointers in front of Curry.
Swish——!
This three-pointer ignited the Knicks' final climax in the second quarter.
When the Heat missed consecutive attacks, what awaited them was the all-round attack of "Second Battalion Commander" Gallinari, "Grimm's Fairy Tale" and "Big Heart"!
Barkley left his seat and shouted loudly: "This is the stormy sea that belongs to the Knicks!"
65 to 53!
The Knicks returned to the halftime locker room with a 12-point lead!
...
