I was determined to be bad, but I went straight to the Basketball Hall of Fame

Chapter 480 Talent (Part [-])
The focus battle between the Clippers and the Cavaliers has begun.

The Clippers got off to a mediocre start. After gaining the offense, Curry made his first attempt at a three-pointer but missed.

Curry's opening three-pointer has always been a barometer of the Clippers' outside offense.

The start feels outstanding, and the Clippers will play smoothly throughout the game.

Once the start is done, it is very likely that you will have to dig a hole for yourself.

Continuous away games, coupled with an unstable state, caused the Clippers to play a little impatiently in the first 2 minutes.

After Curry missed a three-pointer, the Cavaliers immediately led the counterattack. After Irving held the ball for halftime, he rushed into Curry with the ball and entered the three-second zone. mobile phone opportunities.

Passing back to the weak side, Danny Green passed the ball to James who was posting up for the ball in the low post.

This is the biggest change James has made on the offensive end this season-he will attack with his back and the ball.

From fans to experts to celebrities, James finally has the post-up attack that has been talked about for many years.

For a superstar, the back-up technique is like the "Nine Yin Manual" that has won the highest honor.

A player who doesn't have this offensive skill will be considered flawed and unreliable in the crunch time of the playoffs.

Last season's finals confirmed this statement.

At the critical moment, James stood alone and did nothing.

As a result, when the Cavaliers faced the Mavericks' zone defense, they had no solution at all.

On the contrary, from the first round of the playoffs to the finals, Nowitzki used his exquisite post-up technique to score at critical moments time and time again, helping the Mavericks and himself to realize their championship dream.

James rushed and played blindly, and criticisms of the "rough" offensive skill level came one after another.

So, in the summer, James recruited the former master of back-up attack Hagem Olajuwon to train his back-up technique.

Of course, Olajuwon has made a lot of money training stars by relying on his dreamy steps, but Kobe is the only one who can really show his dreamy dance steps in the game.

Howard, Stoudemire, and Josh Smith all had good footwork during training. When it comes to high-intensity competitions, it is still conditioned reflex, which is what I am best at.

What dreamy footsteps, I have long forgotten to go to Java.

To put it bluntly, Olajuwon's footwork around the basket requires basic skills and talent.

If you can't even master the basic back-and-back skills and footwork essentials, the so-called dream footsteps can only get their shape but not their spirit, and they won't be able to play a role in real confrontation.

This time, James settled down and humbly asked and learned from Olajuwon.

He doesn't want to learn those fancy dreamy footsteps and fake moves, those moves are usually not swayed by the opponent, he can sway himself away.

Instead, learn from the basics, how to get stuck, how to get the ball, how to turn around, and how to transfer the ball.

These most basic things are what James lacks. He knows that it is useless to learn those fancy advanced courses.

A summer of hard training and tens of thousands of dollars in training fees were finally paid off.

After the start of the new season, James will really attack with a low back. Although his footsteps are not good-looking and his movements are not very coordinated, he has finally solved the problem.

Once James can attack with the ball in the low post, the Cavaliers' offensive system suddenly becomes a lot more three-dimensional.

Coupled with the existence of Irving, an attacker with the ball, the Cavaliers' offense has enriched more than one level.

"James' position is pretty good, why is he so crab-like?"

Min Congda watched the Cavaliers' offense while eating side dishes. The way James pouted in the low post and stretched his hands for the ball, isn't he as virtuous as a crab wielding big pliers.

The crab belongs to the crab, James' position is really stable, putting George behind him.

Don't underestimate the position of this trick, James didn't know it before, because he didn't have a good grasp of the center of gravity.

You can't see your opponent, so lean your body against the opponent. Once you can't grasp the balance, you will be miserable if the opponent withdraws the stool.

So, why couldn't James beat Barea in the finals?Is Barea really stronger than James?

Obviously not, it's because James can't grasp the center of gravity well, and he can't exert force at all, so he can't even move Barea.

Players who can exert force, such as Kobe, who is proficient in backs, can often back up players who are one size bigger than himself.

There is also a player with a good back like Randolph, who can play well with his back and can exert strength, and he can definitely hit someone stronger than his own body weight.

James' weight and strength are already the best in the third position. He doesn't need great skills, and basic things can dominate most of the league's third positions.

After receiving the pass, James dribbled the ball and pushed it in twice, like a crab pushing a shell, and then suddenly turned inside, pushed George away, and made a light basket with his left hand!

James' back movement is really stiff, but fortunately, his layup is really good and very stable.

So he scored the first point of the game with an unskilled back-up and a low-handed layup that he was good at.

And the impatient Clippers turned around and made another three-pointer-this time it was Harden, who did have a shot from the outside. George's air cut attracted Danny Green's defense, and Harden was able to catch the ball and make a three-pointer.

But the three-pointer was indeed not stable enough. Harden missed a three-pointer and Lopez grabbed the backcourt rebound.

The Cavaliers still have James holding the ball in the low post, the same position, the same action, this time Gasol came over to double-team.

Jamison cuts in the middle, James passes the ball, Jamison catches the ball with his left hand and makes a layup!
Two more points.

"No wonder everyone thinks that the Cavaliers are hot this year. It is true that James has a back-up. Their offensive tactics have been enriched a lot. It is no longer the monotonous play of James alone and splitting the ball. It is too easy to be blocked at critical moments. interesting."

This is Min Congda's first time watching a Cavaliers game this year, and the overall progress of the Cavaliers is indeed great.

It can be seen that Mike Brown made new attempts and adjustments on the offensive end based on James' technical progress, and achieved very good results.

The Clippers still failed to score.

Randolph forced Jamison in the low post, and Robin Lopez successfully defended, making Randolph's hook fail to score.

James got the backcourt rebound, a super long pass to the frontcourt, Irving caught the ball quickly, dribbled the ball behind the defender, killed the basket and made a layup!

Irving catches the ball, dribbles, and lays up. The set of movements is smooth and smooth, and the cooperation with James is even more seamless.

"Good shot! This is the real champion! This guy is really good at playing."

Irving's wonderful dribbling and elegant layup, even Min Congda was impressed.

Curry's dribbling, breakthroughs and layups are already very agile and difficult to guard. The feeling that Irving can be a step higher than Curry is enough to show how talented this player is.

In the case of height, body shape, jumping and other hardware that don't seem to be outstanding, the Cavaliers can pick Irving with the No. [-] pick without hesitation, which shows that he definitely has the talent that surpasses everyone.

Seeing such a combination of knights, Min Congda felt more relieved.

East Cavaliers, West Lakers, double insurance, the Clippers don't want to win the championship.
