Jack made an interception!

Big Z entered the court to protect the basket, with the incredibly mobile Gooden beside him. Without a wing three-point shooter, it was very difficult for the Bobcats to score in the paint.

Felton, who had been playing for over 40 minutes, couldn't make his outside three-pointers anymore and could only rely on Gerald Wallace and Okafor to chisel their way inside. Zhang Yang seized medium-range and fast-break opportunities, but both weren't going well.

The Knight's set offense was just as poor, with Ronald Murray being closely guarded by Zhang Yang. Gooden's average mid-range shots had lost touch due to the physical play, Snow's long shots weren't a threat, and only Big Z's mid-range shots were somewhat steady, but Big Z's limited mobility meant he could only take set shots...

James had no choice but to keep charging headfirst into the breach. When his shots didn't fall, he chose to persist, clinging to the score because he did not want to give up.
