Mike Brown relied on James, the situation was urgent, and he was not ready to rest James in the fourth quarter.

James has been on the court, there is no big problem in terms of physical fitness, but he feels very tired in his heart, the Warriors' targeted defense makes him particularly tired, and once he lacks the passion of the Pistons, he has obviously declined in combat power, and even Granger is not so easy to deal with.

Not to mention that the shameless Montgomery also adopted a wheel battle, in addition to Danny Granger, there are also Trevor Ariza, Matt Barnes, including Jandy, each of whom is good at blocking and defending from the outside.

Young's James rebound never materialized, but the Warriors bench played well, and Monta Ellis helped the Warriors 80-70 and lead by as many as 10 points at the start of the fourth quarter after Monta Ellis drew a foul on Vallejo.

Mike Brown called another timeout.

The Cleveland media were speechless about this, "The Cavaliers seem to be in a stalemate, and the disadvantages that have accumulated little by little in the front have converged into a huge chasm after the entire fourth quarter, and the Cavaliers still have a chance to tie or even overtake the score, but they must show the momentum to beat the Pistons." ”

Many ESPN experts still support James, LeBron James is a local star in the United States after all, many fans in the United States still hope that LeBron James wins, and the Warriors, after all, the star is a strange Chinese, a foreign player.

ESPN's experts have given James advice: "LeBron should strengthen the impact of the restricted area, no matter what, you can break through directly without blocking, the Warriors are not feeling good at the moment, but they always find opportunities to score points steadily, the Cavaliers are poor in scoring in this breath, if you can't score, no matter how good the defense is, it's useless." ”

Mike Brown shouted loudly:

"Stay aggressive!"

"We have to play with the spirit of Cleveland, step up the break, be determined to shoot from mid-range and stay on the off-ball movement." Mike Brown doesn't draw any tactics anymore, just gives some general ideological guidance to boost the team's morale.

After the pause, both sides switched to almost all their main forces.

On the Warriors' side, Monta Ellis and Trevor Ariza remained on the court, and on the Cavaliers' side, Vallejo was left on the bench, and Mike Brown was ready to use him again in the final minute.

Knights attack.

James controlled the ball and looked up, and the Warriors led them by 10 points 80-70 on the screen, and his own statistics were naturally miserable.

He leaned down, dribbled to his left hand, and from beyond the three-point line, he faced Trevo Ariza, who was waiting for him.

Ariza is also very young, he is a year younger than James and Yang Di, 22 years old this year, he entered the league in 04 and he is in his third season this year, he still has no accurate head outside the three-point line, but the defensive end has begun to emerge, many of the league's top swing men have played against this small forward, and found this guy to be a real troublemaker.

Ariza is extremely fast, has extraordinarily long arms, barely loses his position defensively, and can often cut off other people's dribbles like a viper in clingy situations, which is his specialty, so head coach Montgomery called Ariza "Cobra", and gradually became Ariza's nickname in the NBA.

James guarded the ball vigilantly, Ariza bullied up, and the whole person clung to James.

James' right arm quietly elbowed, and the force hit Ariza's body, and with his impact, the elbow hit was also vicious.

Ariza snorted, and his chest was smacked, and the whole person was in pain and let go of his body.

"Oops!"

But immediately, Ariza secretly said that it was not good, James found the opportunity, stepped out with his right foot to the left, formed a cross-step breakthrough situation, and at the same time worked his shoulders and ran like a bull.

Ariza gritted her teeth and simply froze in place, allowing James to pass his own defense.

James was overjoyed, and he was about to send the basketball forward with his left hand, but he didn't know where to go, a big hand suddenly appeared, and he reached out like lightning and clicked off the basketball that had just fallen in his hand.

He cursed a swear word, and the basketball was stabbed forward uncontrollably and fell into Yang Di's arms.

Yang Di glanced at James with a surprised look, as if to say, I'm ready, why are you suddenly unlucky?

Yang Di threw the ball into the sky with both hands, and the basketball spun in the air, crossing a super high arc.

Ariza rushed into the front court, took Yang Di's pass across the half court in the air, held it with both hands, jumped after two steps in the free throw line, raised one arm high, glided for some distance, and slammed it down.

"Bang dang!"

Ariza dunked the ball into the basket and shook her body, just in time to bounce off the falling basketball and roar with her arms raised.

The fans at the scene were ignited by Ariza's dunk and applauded and cheered for him.

The replay footage shows that after James passed Ariza's defense, Ariza did not give up, the whole person half-turned on the spot, the long arm of his left hand came around, sneaked behind James' dribble, and clicked out James's dribble.

"It's all tackles, it's amazing." Yang Di gave Ariza a thumbs up, this little brother of his own is really powerful, and he is talented on the defensive end.

Ariza grinned, covered her chest, and after roaring, it seemed that her chest didn't hurt anymore.

In the NBA, there are a lot of elbow strikes, but sometimes it is a question of whether the referee wants to blow it, and at such a high intensity in the finals, elbow strikes are not uncommon to tear clothes and make loops, and Yang Di has become accustomed to Drew Gooden's "up and down" against him.

82-70, after returning from a timeout, the score was further expanded by the Warriors.

Larry Hughes dribbled across half court and handed it to wing James, who singled out Ariza with the ball, and there was a feeling that he was going to get up where he fell.

Dangling left and right, he pushed Ariza to break through.

After taking a sudden step, he suddenly slowed down, changed direction a little in advance, and controlled the ball with his right hand to the left, but still chose to break through from the left.

Yang Di was originally prepared on the right side to help defend, and if James went to the left, he would be farther away from Gooden, and James saw the opportunity and passed the ball to Gooden in the empty space.

Gooden received the ball and shot on tiptoe, and when Yang Di came over to make up for it, he had already shot.

"Bell~"

But the mid-range jumper didn't go in, Tyson Chandler jumped high, grabbed it with both hands, protected the rebound, and the moment he landed, his elbows were open, and whoever came to pick him out of the ball was ready to give him an elbow.

The Warriors attacked in the frontcourt, Yang Di came out with the help of Tyson Chandler's cover, and then covered Ariza who cut to the basket, and at the same time, Ray Allen also came out, and the Warriors ran like a tiger.

Yang Di received the ball in the elbow area, raised his hand and shook it, and Gooden stood on tiptoe and raised his center of gravity.

Yang Di immediately leaned in, and Vallejo stood outside the three-second zone, ready to fall when he made contact with Yang Di.

Yang Di stopped the brakes sharply and threw his hand outside the three-second zone.

The basketball bounced off the basket, but then, Yang Di jumped forward with the force of his impact, and in Valejo's hands, a big dark hand rose high, flicked it lightly, and put the ball back into the basket.

Make it up!
