I really just want to be a role player

After 15 minutes of rest and recuperation, the game came back for the second half, and the main players of both sides returned to work.

And the Knicks have the offensive ball, Kidd tops the arc and turns over Anthony's card.

Swish-!
"Pretty!
Subei's defense is not bad, but Anthony's offense is even better.

He arched his back and went in. Then, he shot backward and it went in. You couldn't resist it. This is the 10000 combat power of a superstar. Northern Jiangsu's defense only has 7000..."

It's not that Su Bei is too weak, it can only be said that Anthony is too strong.

Durant, who has won the scoring title three times in a row, can't match Anthony's offensive firepower this season. It makes sense that Subei can't defend against scoring champion-level attacks.

54 to 61! !
The point difference becomes 7 points.

The suspense of the game is still there.

Looking back, Paul did not let Anthony alone. After all, brothers who went on a banana boat together are qualified to ride on the same boat. No matter how active Felton is in defense, no matter how hard he wants to prove himself, you can't stop him.

Swish-!
"nice shot!
Paul scored, a classic breakthrough mid-range shot.

It’s a very ordinary move, it’s nothing more than a little drifting and leaning back, but it just doesn’t hold up…”

You don’t have the capital to hold this meeting?
Paul would never say such a thing to others, it was just called strength!
In the transition between offense and defense, Kidd continued to favor Anthony alone, knowing that if he wanted to even out the score difference, he had to let the superstars in the team work hard.

“The three threats were defeated by Su Bei again.

Next, let's see if Su Bei can break the back.

Bang-!
This is the power of Anthony's butt. Su Bei's strength is not bad, but in the face of talent, he can only fight and retreat.

Turning around with a shoulder shake, Anthony feinted and then stepped up and down for a layup. Su Bei was shaken.

Paul rushed to help defend, but it was useless. Anthony passed the ball, Felton caught the ball and made a two-point jump shot..."

Swish-!
With the knife in hand, Felton responded with an assist from Anthony, hit a two-pointer, and returned the favor.

Did Paul's defense fall?

Do not!
This is when Subei's defense failed. Anthony showed the power of a super scorer in singles. In addition to being able to score, he was also able to attract defensive help, and then assisted his teammates to also shoot.

Su Bei was taught a lesson by Anthony's performance as a point forward.

Losing to the No. 1 scorer this season, Su Bei did not lose unfairly.

However, looking back, Su Bei took the initiative to set up an outside screen with Paul. Paul was very knowledgeable and knew what Su Bei wanted and gave it to him immediately.

"Beautiful pick-and-roll, Kidd couldn't keep up with his footsteps, and it was so ungrateful to give him a two-on-one.

Su Bei caught the ball from the top of the three-point line, ignored Felton's 188-day defense change, and shot a three-point pull-up jumper..."

Why is the pick-and-roll tactic the most conventional tactic? It makes sense that in the future, only three-pointers and pick-and-rolls will be left in the NBA.

Asking means misalignment, the length is beyond your reach, and no matter how active you are, you will only prevent loneliness.

Swish-!
“It’s very nice to return the favor!
The points that Su Bei lost on defense were regained on offense with three-point shooting..."

56 to 66! !
Instead, the score difference became 10 points.

Sure enough, it is impossible to recover the points with two points.

You enter one, and I enter another. In the end, it is nothing more than a waste of time.

Kidd's ability to read the game is so terrifying. In the next round, when he controls the ball in the frontcourt, he still wants to turn over Anthony's card.

At this time, Anthony's condition was obviously at full strength. Naturally, Su Bei didn't like him and actively went around to defend.

Kidd once, twice... kept looking for passing opportunities, and all he could see was Anthony.

I don’t know, you thought Anthony was his wife?
That affectionate look, that glance, played the role of Kobe. As a result, Kidd suddenly rose up from the ball, raised his hand from the top of the three-point arc and hit a three-point pull-up jumper...

Kobe couldn't predict Kidd's three-pointer at all. Although the defense was still very active in blocking the shot, it was still half a beat late. He could only hope that Kidd would return the shot and just wait outside.

Swish-!
"Also hit!
Nice job! !
Kidd's three-point shot is getting more and more amazing!
If you continue to think that others are basic and don’t attack but defend, it is not possible, but you will definitely be taught how to be a good person..."

59 to 66! !
The two sides come and go, entering into a mutually damaging confrontation.

Hong Kong, the Lakers' offensive firepower can be said to be brave, but I didn't expect that the Knicks' offense at the beginning of the third quarter was even braver. Whose general is this?
"Anthony is crazy!

Seeing Su Bei's melon-free tactics, Yangshou shot a pull-up three-point jumper...

Swish-!
coming!

This is the terrifying thing about the talent of the scoring champion. Anthony’s melon, which is full of three-point shooting attributes, tastes sweet. Su Bei was exploded...

Do not!
Strictly speaking, it was the Lakers who were blown away. Anthony took over the Knicks' offense, and his touch was on the line, no matter how hard he played..."

Su Bei spread his hands and said he didn't blame him.

Superstars also have fits of convulsions.

A mediocre role player can beat Jordan if he goes crazy. Now a super scorer like Anthony has explosive touch. What can you use to top it?
You can't stand it.

In the third quarter, Anthony made 9 of 7 shots and 4 of 3 three-pointers. With Subei's tight team and the Lakers' trap, he scored 17 points in a single quarter, which was simply unreasonable.

The Lakers tried calling a timeout, which meant they were stopped, and they also tried switching defenses, which meant Su Bei was beaten. However, they switched to Kobe or Artest for wheel defense, and the result was still unstoppable.

In addition to strengthening the defensive rhythm and intensity and desperately consuming Anthony's physical energy, the Lakers can't do anything else and can only listen to the gunshots.

Swish-!
...Shua——!
……

When encountering such a super melon, Su Bei had no idea. At the same time, he also realized why Durant lost the battle for the scoring title this season!
The Lakers' wing defense is undoubtedly the best in the league.

But with Anthony's offensive attributes fully developed and his three-point shooting stable, he still lost ground across the board.

With such a sweet melon appearing, in addition to awarding him a scoring title, how about the Lakers' defense?
Under the leadership of Anthony with full firepower, the Knicks beat the Lakers with a score of 31 to 29 in the third quarter.

Ah!
That's it?

Only recovered 2 points?
Obviously Anthony's offensive operations are as fierce as a tiger's, but when he looks at the score, it's only [-]?
Don't ask, the Lakers don't understand defense, and the Knicks don't understand either.

Another question is about the jump shot, he is unreliable.

It is true that Anthony's defense is impossible to defend, but only his one shot of the Knicks is hot, and the remaining shots are cold.

JR Smith made 6 of 2 shots and Felton made 6 of 1. These two crouching dragons and phoenixes, one on the left and one on the right, dragged Anthony back, begging to be taken away.

Kidd scored a three-pointer and immediately entered a non-attack mode.

The Knicks' inside line does seem to be better than that of the Lakers, but Chandler will only take the pie, and Stoudemire now only has mid-range shots. The Lakers can completely focus their defensive energy on Stoudemire's side, and Anthony's offense. No matter how brave they are, the Lakers still defend alone.

The Lakers don't care about the Knicks' outside scoring at all, because they don't score as many outside points as the Lakers, so they still have this confidence.

As long as the Knicks' interior offense is suppressed, the Lakers, who have a lead, can control the direction of the court.

In the third quarter, Kobe made 7 of 4 shots and scored 11 points. Su Bei made 5 of 3 shots and scored 8 points. The total of 19 points only offset Anthony's offensive power.

But this "just" is enough.

If the Knicks want to even out the score difference, they need other outside players to step up and provide fire support.

However, Felton has Paul's defensive care. In front of Kidd, either Kobe or Su Bei is standing. JR Smith comes on the court. He also has to face the Lakers' strong perimeter defense. He wants to comprehensively defeat the Lakers' perimeter defense. Defense is impossible, absolutely impossible.

At the end of the first three quarters, the score was 83 to 90. The Lakers entered the final battle of the fourth quarter with a 7-point lead.

Bang-dang-!
Under Su Bei's block, JR Smith made a three-pointer and missed.

……

Bang-dang-!
Felton broke through, stopped to meet Blake and shot a two-point jumper. The opportunity came, but the shot was useless and failed to blast the damn basketball into the basket.

……

At the beginning of the fourth quarter, the Knicks' Crouching Dragon and Young Phoenix were still online and continued to backstab the team's offense.

With no choice, the Knicks can only try their best to replace Anthony in advance.

However, the game exploded in the third quarter. Facing the Lakers' powerful wing battle, Anthony, who still contributed terrifying offensive firepower, softened.

The fuel tank in his body was at the bottom. Facing the same defensive intensity, Anthony couldn't catch the ball. He couldn't catch the ball at all.

尽管还能够3投2中，罚球4中3，进账7分0助攻0篮板0抢断，数据还算凑合，但已经失去了主宰比赛的能力。

He is still a threatening scorer, but his impact on the outcome of the game is zero.

On the court, Anthony could only pant and desperately try to catch the ball and attack.

But whether it's Su Bei, Kobe, or Artest, when Anthony wants to catch the ball, he desperately consumes the few drops of physical energy in his body.

No way, Anthony's three-point shot is basically useless, and his post-up attack is also useless.

All that's left is the jump shot...

They also have to face a strong defense.

More time, I can only watch helplessly as J.R. Smith or Felton put on a blacksmith show.

Well, plus Stoudemire trying to take over the game, he's equally tough.

Falling behind in the game and needing to chase points, but the offense is still unreliable. What can I do to save you and my Knicks?
Om-!
With the sound of the beep, the red light is on, and the game time is over.

In the fourth quarter of the game, the Knicks' offensive output was only 18 points.

The Lakers had 23 points, not many, but deadly.

The score was 101 to 113. The Lakers defeated the Knicks with a 12-point advantage and won the Christmas Day game.

Anthony made 24 of 14 shots, 8 of 3 three-pointers, 9 of 7 free throws, and scored 38 points, 7 rebounds, and 5 assists. Just looking at the data, he can say that the team lost, but he did not lose.

The Knicks' leading scorer is a high-end player, but the second scorer, Stoudemire, only scored 17 points. The third scorer, however, was RJ Smith who made 20 of 6 shots and also scored 17 points.

It is said that Chandler is one of the Big Three, but you call his performance of 7 of 3 shots, 6 points and 9 rebounds, which is not enough for a cat, a giant?

It can only be said that the Knicks don't even know how to form a team or copy the model of the Green Army's Big Three, so it would be unfair to lose the game.

For the Lakers, Kobe made 24 of 14 shots, 6 of 2 three-pointers, 7 of 5 free throws, and scored 35 points, 5 rebounds, and 4 assists. It didn't look like much, but he basically didn't lose to Anthony's offensive output.

Su Bei made 16 of 8 shots, 10 of 5 three-pointers, and 6 of 6 free throws. He only scored 27 points. His performance was quite adequate, but he could not match the Knicks' second scoring point.

In addition, Gasol performed well tonight, with 16 points, 11 rebounds and 7 assists, plus Paul's 15 points and 11 assists. With the same team of giants, the Knicks can only be said to be a low-profile version.

The Lakers, despite their flaws inside, are an advanced version.
