Chapter 1157 That Gai’s Charm

Fans said they were numb.

The once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to widen the score was wasted by Stephenson's meal move.

"You hide away. When you see Zuo Li standing in front of you, you still have to fight hard, right? Don't look back until you hit the south wall, right! Right!!" Yu Jia was angry, Stephenson was three steps too slow.

Dribbling for a layup is like serving food.

But as soon as Yu Jia finished speaking, Stephenson redeemed himself, and the Knicks' fast break was very fast.

They responded quickly. Since outside firepower could not be opened up, in addition to shooting from the inside of Zuoli, it was extremely important to speed up the fast break and seize opportunities for defensive counterattacks.

This time they even passed the ball back to Zuo Li, the man with the greatest fast break threat in the league.

Zuo Li's fast break is like a high-speed train. Although it may not be as powerful as O'Pang's tank fast break, it has the same attack speed that no one dares to block. After halftime, he can make a three-step layup or even a dunk.

, full of power, and the most terrifying thing is his passing, which is hard to guard against.

However, something went wrong. Zuo Li, who was advancing quickly this time, saw that Curry had already taken a position at the far end. He was greedy and wanted a three-pointer, so he passed the ball!

However, Cheng Yaojin came out halfway, and Stephenson, who was supposed to defend Klay Thompson on the opposite side, actually appeared in the passing line of the left wing!

"O~M~G!!!"

O'Neal drawled a long note, and then looked at Barkley and Kenny Smith. The three of them looked at each other, not knowing what to say.

Yes, this ball was indeed Zuo Li's mistake. Stephenson stole the ball and added one, which can be regarded as revenge for the big block just now.

But... I can't say this kind of compliment no matter what. After all, why would you let go of your defender to go to that position?

It can’t be said that you understood Zuo Li’s passing intention!

That's worse than this steal!

They would rather believe that this time it was a blind cat that met a dead mouse.

"My, my, my." Zuo Li extended his hand to signal and retreated.

He blamed him for being too careless. He didn't expect that Stephenson would choose to follow Curry, and George Hill was also following him. It can only be said that Stephenson is occasionally spiritual.

It's just... Zuo Li also wants to find his place!

He quickly returned to defense and opened his arms to expand the defensive area. The rest of the Knicks also quickly returned to defense.

"Here!" Paul George asked for the ball while running. He was in a good position and could attack directly with the ball.

But if it’s just passed on like this, then you’re looking down on our good junior brother!

If I steal the ball based on my ability, of course I have to attack on my own!

So Stephenson once again challenged Zuo Li head-on. This time, he used the aggressive European step.

One, two...

Snapped!

Farther and crisper!

This slap almost knocked out Stephenson's soul. He stood in place and spun around twice with a blank expression on his face.

Those who know may understand that he is looking for where the ball has gone, while those who don't know may think that he has lost his memory.

Fortunately, the force was too great and it flew directly to the sideline. Otherwise, if the Knicks scored again, Stephenson would be completely furious.

But these two rounds alone are enough!

Seeing that so much was said, what actually happened in a few tens of seconds, the fans' eyes were overwhelmed and they couldn't stop laughing.

"Calm down brother, can you please don't be anxious?" Paul George helplessly tried to wake Stephenson up. If they continue to play like this, they will definitely lose.

Although Bird, the general manager of the Pacers, looked calm off the court, he was chewing gum much faster.

Obviously, these two rounds made his heart rate rise a lot.

But... I can still hold on!

After all, he is a guy who has seen big scenes.

But he didn't know how long he could hold on. After all, Stephenson was really crazy. He had seen people who were dishing out food and people who were just plain picky, but this was the first time he had seen someone who was so unintelligent.

Fortunately, Stephenson stepped back from the brink.

After that, the game got back on track. The two sides fought fiercely, but the score was not high. The Pacers' iron defense played its role. The rhythm of both sides was not fast and there were many positions. The Knicks' outside shooting rate improved but not much. Everything seemed to have entered a walking pace.

Among the readers’ favorite rhythms.

However, the scores of the two sides have been alternately leading, and the Pacers failed to widen the gap as they wished.

The reason is naturally Zuo Li.

After Randolph left, there was a voice that Zuoli was not doing well, because many people felt that Randolph's presence was the basis for Zuoli's previous outstanding performance.

This is of course true, but they also underestimated Zuo Li's ability.

In this game, Zuo Li fully demonstrated his inside strength. He couldn't open up on the outside, the Pacers shrunk inside, and with a defensive gate like Hibbert, Zuo Li made 10 of 14 shots in the penalty area in the first half.

, made all 10 free throws, scored 32 points, 9 rebounds and 7 blocks in the half, including 4 offensive rebounds.

This kind of performance made outside opinions self-defeating, and commentators all praised Zuo Li as a real inside god of war.

As for the long-lost 7 blocks in the first half, all thanks to Stephenson's dedication. After all, except for him, few other Pacers challenge Zuo Li head-on.

In the second half, the Knicks changed their lineup and David Lee was replaced by Anderson. David Lee felt cold tonight and made 0 of 5 shots in the half. D'Antoni decided to simply start playing defense with the Pacers!

On the outside, Nash came on the scene and started a pick-and-roll with Zuo Li. The effect was very good!

It has to be said that Jiang is still as good as ever. During the 6 and a half minutes of Nash's appearance, the Knicks hit a 12-6 spurt, leading by 6 points in one fell swoop.

Especially a ground-breaking ball during a fast break, allowing Zuo Li to directly perform a one-armed tomahawk.

This time no one dared to stop Zuo Li. Hibbert took two steps back and walked away when Zuo Li flew up.

But at this time, Stephenson, who had been hidden for a while, appeared again.

He hit a three-pointer as soon as he came on the court, and then a spiritual double attack helped the Pacers complete the defense, and finally Paul George completed the goal.

"Stephenson always stands up and tells you that he is good when you think he is not good at it!" Yu Jia said.

"Well, then make some mistakes when everyone thinks he is good..." Director Zhang said.

Just as he was saying this, Stephenson made a pass error, set up a fast break from the left, and assisted Birdman Anderson to take off and dunk successfully!

Well, junior brother is still the same junior brother.

But he doesn't usually act like this, maybe he was too excited today.

But then his performance was very stable. Except for providing warmth to Zuo Li twice and allowing Zuo Li to block 9 shots at the end of the fourth quarter, he performed well at other times.

This also gave the Knicks only a 2-point lead in the last 12 seconds.

The ball is in the hands of the Pacers.

After a timeout, the Knicks changed their defense, Paul George was flanked, David West came up to catch the ball and was blocked, and the ball was directly given to the only open space - Stephenson's hands.

Bird's eyelids were twitching wildly. Years of experience told him that this might be a trap, because there was only Stephenson with no one to defend him.

But it was too late at this time. The junior brother who got the ball directly forced a breakthrough, and Kleka's position as the main defender forced him to choose a jump shot.

However, the good junior brother never dreamed that the Knicks’ killer move was not Clay, but Zuo Li!

Two steps, take off!

Snapped!

Basketball is the opposite of the basket.
