100% God Guard

70:74

The Sacramento Kings also led by four points, just four. Their offense tonight went smoothly, and Divac’s strategy was completely fine and smooth as ever, which led to their 74-point score at half-time. But the Knicks almost tied the score with the play of Lu Li alone, and Adelman was almost scared.

Lu Li is terrifying!

One man against an entire army.

At halftime, back in the dressing room, Adelman didn’t know what to say, and his whole mind was full of the shadow of Lu Li’s crazy shot at half-time. A shot hit was like a knife in his heart, making people breathless.

After hesitating for a long time, he still focused on the team’s defense in the first half. The defense of Doug Christie and Bibi was completely unable to withstand the attack of Lu Li alone, and one person burst the defense line they had established.

But there is no way, there is no one on the bench who defends better than Christie. Moreover, replacing others and abandoning these two is undoubtedly cutting off an arm in the attack.

After thinking about it, he looked at Gerard Wallace, who has rarely had a chance to play, who is better than the thin Christie in terms of physique and strength, although it may not be as satisfactory offensively, but Wallace’s movement speed may limit Lu Li.

He said sorry to Christie that he would start Wallace in the second half.

Wallace was the player selected by them with the 25th pick in the first round in ’01, with excellent defensive qualities and willingness to be on the team as a defensive sapper. In his three seasons, he did not have a strong presence, but he was always able to complete his tasks in limited playing time.

“Gerrard, I need you to follow Lu in the second half and try not to give him comfortable shooting space.” Adelman said to Wallace.

“I try!”

Wallace nodded in agreement, but smiled bitterly in his heart. In his eyes, Lu Li is no longer something that people like him can keep, think about it, the other party can kill in and out of the Detroit Pistons’ iron barrel formation, not to mention a guy like him who usually averages less than 10 minutes per game.

However, what else can be done? To be able to start, he is satisfied.

In the Knicks’ locker room, Don Cheney looked at Lu Li, who was a little panting, with a smile on his face. He was very satisfied with Lu Li’s performance, but he was a little worried. In the first half, such a crazy attack that consumes physical strength, even if it is only the most laborious three-pointer, will consume a lot of physical energy. However, it seems that there is no problem with Lu Li, and a 15-minute intermission can probably recover a lot.

He greatly praised Lu Li and comforted the other party, if it really didn’t work, there was no need to be stubborn. Tonight’s King’s state is bursting, and he can’t beat it alone, and the Knicks are really short of helpers. If Carl Malone and Pence Hardaway can play, then the problem will be solved.

Returning from the second half, Peja Stojakovic received a pass from Bibby and hit the first three to bring the gap to seven points.

Lu Li held the ball, faced the new Wallace, changed direction sharply, passed him, just wanted to rush in, but was unwilling to be thrown off like this, and pulled him back.

As a last resort, Riku took the sideline ball again. This time, he was almost two steps away from the bull’s horn position, and he directly pulled out.

“Ugh!”

Hit a three-point shot, and the difference is back to 4 points. At 59 points, his score was about to break 60, but he was not happy, and he was bent on equalizing the score.

But soon, Mike Bibby cut through the ball, received a pass from Divac, and hit a layup. Uncle Mu could not do anything about this short guard who was dexterous and fast.

Lu Li dribbled the ball over the front court, quickly threw Wallace away, and when he rushed into the basket, Divac abandoned Uncle Mu, and together with Peja, they both closed the door and left Lu. However, Lu Li distributed the ball to Uncle Mu, who had an empty door wide open under the basket, who received the ball for a layup and had a physical confrontation with Sangueira and missed it.

Won two free throws though.

Unfortunately, he hit one of two free throws, leaving a difference of 5 points.

Mike Bibby dribbled the ball to the top arc, then Peja’s cover, when he threw off Lu Li, he suddenly shot, the basketball flew into the net, and scored a three-pointer.

On the contrary, Lu Li’s three points hit the iron under Wallace’s desperate entanglement.

King’s attack, Divac suddenly went down from the high position, took Peja’s score, carried Uncle Mu, picked the ball into the basket, and the point difference was stretched to 10 points. Riku continued to attack individually, but this time, he rushed to the basket to try to dunk, and was pulled by Wallace again, almost falling.

“Ugh!”

“Ugh!”

With two free throws, he increased his score to 61 points.

Back on the defensive end, the Knicks still couldn’t stop the Kings’ offense, and Peja took a step inside the three-point line and hit a long-range two-pointer. Lu Li continued to hold the ball, and as he walked from the bottom line to the front court, he took a deep breath to calm his slightly irritable mentality.

When he reached the top arc, he made a fake pass, brushed Wallace, passed the ball inside, and gave it to Thomas. Unfortunately, tonight’s Knicks didn’t seem to be a good time for the game, and even Thomas, who has always been stable, missed. Looking back, the Kings continued to be super efficient, and Peja once again hit a shot from beyond the three-point line.

Don Cheney saw the difference getting bigger and bigger, and had to immediately call a timeout to rearrange. His arrangement was very simple, asking others to try to leave the road for the land when they felt cold, and whether the latter could carry it alone and resign themselves to fate.

After a pause, Lu Li continued to attack, but under the trap of Wallace and Bibi, he returned to no avail. The Kings returned to his offensive end and finally missed, and Peja saw that he was hot in hand, and when he received the pass again, the three points were finally ironed.

Uncle Mu struggled to grab the rebound and passed it to Lu Li in the top arc, and Lu Li caught the ball and shot.

“Ugh!”

The Knicks’ brief scoring drought was finally broken after he hit this three-pointer. It’s just that when Lu Li is trying to chase the score, the king is also scoring, and the Knicks’ defense, only Lu Li and Uncle Mu can eat the opposite person to death. People like Thomas and Anderson leak people at every turn, not to mention that Van Horn. Van Horn’s defense is no different from paper paste, and the opposing Peja is like crossing the road in the morning, incomparably smooth.

The game fell into a state of stagnation for a while, you get two points, I get two points, you get three points, and there is another 2+1, quickly canceling out. When the king finally felt up and down, Lu Li also entered the strange circle and missed the shot.

Wallace, don’t look at him as a small soldier at the moment, but the difficult physical confrontation ability, shrewd defense, plus Mike Bibby’s defense from the middle, sometimes wrapped, always makes Lu Li pay more energy to score.

At the end of the third quarter, Lu Li shot 7 of 15 and 4 of 9 three-pointers in a single quarter, and scored 20 points again, reaching a total of 76 points, setting his own single-game scoring record, but his efficiency plummeted.

One person is always a match for the whole team.

No matter how many points he has to get, he is not as good as the fiery king.

Fortunately, the teammates recovered a little, and Lu Li began to recuperate a little, recover some physical strength, so that the ball passed out, some of them were gained, this is only 95:105, they only continue to trail by 10 points.
