NBA: I am a master dealer

Chapter 198
Barkley: "LeBron is finally playing, but he's..."

He didn't go on, but was obviously very surprised.

Can you not be surprised?
League No. 1 actually wants to stagger the opponent's main camp to play the game, which is really unheard of and unseen.

The most incomprehensible thing is that James was defended to death at the beginning, and he made a triple iron.

As a result, Gasol and Ibaka went down, scored a goal, and celebrated domineeringly.

This……

It is really speechless...

O'Neal said with a half-smile: "I thought he was injured..."

Although he didn't say anything more.

But all insiders know what this means.

You are not injured, what were you doing just now?
Sit back and wait for those who can defend to rest, and then show off their might?

Ah……

Is this inappropriate soft-ass behavior?

James has no regard for what others think of him.

After he finished playing, he walked to the free-throw line, shouted his hands, and looked complacent.

At this moment, Sipo signaled for a substitution.

James subconsciously glanced back and saw Gasol Jr. and Ibaka taking off their coats.

His face changed instantly.

Muttering in his mouth: Made FK
Ernie Johnson: "Hey...Spoelstra replaced Gasol Jr. and Ibaka again."

O'Neill suddenly laughed, "Haha... LeBron's face is very ugly, what is he talking about..."

Barkley: "Spoel made the right choice. Since the defensive effect of Gasol, Ibaka and Tucker's trio is obvious, they should be consistent with LeBron's playing time. Now let's see how LeBron response?"

Obviously.

Barkley is also not ashamed of my big James' evasive behavior, looking like he is watching a good show.

After everyone takes their positions.

Bang!

My big James is also good at free throws.

Ibaka firmly received the rebound.

Xue Liancheng received the ball and advanced quickly, but the Cavaliers still have no plans to change their defensive strategy.

Let Owen defend one-on-one.

When he came to the top of the arc, he paused.

The front of the body swings sharply.

Predicting that Owen's center of gravity shifted, he rushed directly to the other side.

Along the way, he rolled Owen forward, but someone reached out to interfere.

But these feints were clearly displayed in his mind, and he simply ignored them.

Killed all the way to the basket, forcibly facing Irving, as if he was about to shoot.

After Owen pressed up.

He then turned around and picked the basket from the other side.

Again!

This is his sixth goal in this section of the game.

He took 8 shots and hit 6 goals. He has already scored 14 points.

The efficiency is very high.

Since Blatter doesn't believe in evil, he naturally wants to teach him a good lesson.

He didn't believe that Blatter could continue to be so stubborn.

O'Neill commented: "Xue Liancheng's breakthrough is very resolute, and he has no reaction at all to the interference of other people. I have to say that his ability to read the game is too strong."

In the eyes of outsiders, Xue Liancheng's behavior of ignoring interference and forcing his way to the basket is a manifestation of his firm attitude and super ability to read the game.

In fact.

What Xue Liancheng relies on is the dynamic picture in his mind.

There is still an essential difference between defensive players pretending to interfere and resolutely interfering.

This can be judged from the movement of running over and reaching out, and the specific stance.

The most important thing is the dynamic picture in his mind, and the sense of distance displayed is not enough for him to pass the ball.

Then he will naturally be extremely determined when he gets to the basket.

Look back.

James wilted again.

After two awkward lucks at the top of the arc, it spread again.

At this moment.

Marion cuts suddenly.

Owen immediately gave it.

All members of the Heat immediately shrunk the line of defense.

Marion spread the news immediately.

Shumpert shot a three-pointer directly.

middle!

25:25 draw.

The performance of other Cavaliers players is really good.

Off-site attack and defense.

Xue Liancheng broke into the basket and failed to force it, but was interfered by Thompson.

Pass to Gasol Jr.

Gasol Jr. in the middle distance.

No more.

Marion receives the rebound.

And James, who is at the top of the arc, has gone crazy and fast.

But PJ Tucker is very sticky, and he didn't give me a chance to play fast.

In the end, it can only fall into positional warfare.

James took the ball and adjusted it at the top of the arc, and made a strong breakthrough again.

Now the space on the court is very wide, so the Heat must shrink quickly.

Ibaka took the lead in indenting.

James passed directly.

Marion's three-pointer is actually average, and he is better at passing and cutting.

But he shot very firmly.

Three points again!

Barkley sighed: "The rest of the Cavaliers feel very hot, and LeBron's containment effect is still very obvious. As long as he keeps going, he can break the Heat's flanking strategy."

But the Heat's touch isn't bad either.

Look back.

Ennis finally got the chance, and Xue Liancheng passed it on immediately.

The former also has small throws under the basket.

27:28
The score was very tight.

With more than two minutes left, Mozgov came up again.

Look back.

James repeated the same trick again, forced his way in, and encountered double-teaming as promised.

Thompson through the basket.

The latter strengthened.

Ennis fouled late.

scored.

whistle.

2 + 1
The extra penalty was also hit steadily.

Barkley: "LeBron's breakthrough power is starting to show. Even if he can't score, he can still use his breakthrough to create opportunities for his teammates."

Heat attack.

Gasol and Ibaka completed the cooperation and made an internal pass.

There are also.

29:31
Do not give in to each other.

No one was able to contain the opponent's attack.

Knights attack.

This time it was Irving's turn to break through the pick-and-roll, and when he was double-teamed, he went straight to Thompson under the basket.

Strong dunks succeeded.

Look back.

Xue Liancheng advanced to the top of the arc with the ball. After the pick-and-roll, Owen didn't follow, and went to the next position in advance to wait.

Xue Liancheng directly raised his hand and shot.

There are still three points.

Off-site attack and defense.

Owen returned the color.

After coming to the top of the arc.

He also directly raised his hand and shot.

Also scored three points.

At the end of the first quarter, the two sides fought fiercely, and neither could guard the other.

For the Cavaliers, everyone can score except for LeBron James who cannot score.

As for the Heat, except for Xue Liancheng who scored consecutive points, the others did not perform very well, occasionally making one or two shots.

The first quarter is over.

The score was an astonishing 35:38, with the Cavaliers leading by 3 points.

And Xue Liancheng has already scored a career-high 19 points in a single quarter, giving people a feeling of how to shoot, and one person scored more than the rest of the team combined.

But only 2 assists.

It is conceivable how determined the Cavaliers are to his defensive strategy.

And the effect is quite obvious.

Without his tandem organization, without his passing to create shots, the others just shut down.

Neither Gasol's high-level support nor Batum's organization can exert the offensive firepower it deserves.

In contrast to the Cavaliers.

Just the opposite of the Heat.

I made 4 of 1 shots and only scored 2 points, but had 4 assists.

James really has a strong sense of the court. Unlike other superstars, he has to attack by himself, or he has to regain his face, and he will not make a move if he is strictly guarded.

In addition to the consecutive missed baskets at the beginning of the game, there was only one shot after Gasol Jr. and Ibaka were off the court.

That is, the time of pretense.

The rest of the time they are receiving the ball, or making room for teammates after rushing to the basket.

I don't know if it's because I'm afraid of hitting the iron, or I'm looking for reason in playing?

Should have both.

But in the face of Xue Liancheng scoring so efficiently, the Cavaliers can still lead by 3 points.

This shows that the Cavaliers' defensive strategy is correct, and James' choice is also correct.

only.

The premise is that personal data is sacrificed.

The beginning of the second quarter.

Xue Liancheng sat down to rest.

After all, Gasol is a tall man, and running back and forth consumes a lot of energy for him, and he can't stand it anymore, so he rests.

The current rotation on the field is: Chalmers, Ennis, PJ-Tucker, Marcus-Morris, Ibaka.

As expected, my big Zhan Huang didn't take a break. I seized this opportunity and finally played a role.

Without Gasol's pit protection, PJ-Taker and Ibaka still couldn't withstand the impact of my big James.

Even into two.

The hit rate immediately increased.

6 of 3 shots, the efficiency still looks very good.

The most important thing is that Ibaka is not big. Although he is an insider, the help defense is okay, and the main defense LeBron still suffers.

of course.

If the size is large and the tonnage is there, there will be no running and jumping ability, and the mobility advantage and defense ability will be gone.

What you gain, what you lose...

It has been a dilemma since ancient times.

Even as perfect as LeBron James, there are huge flaws.

If you make up for the precise mid-range and stable three-point shooting, it will be really invincible.

and so.

Some things cannot be exacted.

Fortunately, the Heat's substitute firepower is not bad and can continue.

So as not to be beaten helplessly.

When Xue Liancheng and Gasol Jr. appeared again, the Heat fell behind by 44 points at 50:6.

Barely acceptable.

Ernie Johnson said in surprise, "Hey, LeBron is... going down to rest again?"

Barkley frowned and said bluntly: "Although the strategy is correct, I always feel that... LeBron's behavior is not what a superstar should be."

O'Neill smiled and held my respect for the great Zhan Huang, "I only rested for more than two minutes in the first quarter, and now I can understand the end of the game. After all, we should use our strengths and avoid weaknesses..."

while they were talking.

Xue Liancheng has completed the pick-and-roll with Gasol Jr.

This time Gasol did not choose to go down, but pulled outside the three-point line.

Mozgov wanted to delay Xue Liancheng, but didn't bring up to chase Gasol.

Xue Liancheng passed back directly.

Gasol Jr. opened a three-pointer and directly raised his hand to make a shot.

Also scored three points.

47:50
The point difference is approaching again.

So far in this game, Mozgov's ability to protect the frame has not been shown.

In addition to the adjustment of the Cavaliers' defensive strategy, the most important thing is his own problem.

The tonnage is large and the pace is slow. Once he is pulled out by Gasol Jr., he can't come back.

Or if you retract it, you can't pull it out.

like this round.

That's why.

Delaying Xue Liancheng was actually the right choice.

But because his footsteps were too slow, when Gasol caught and shot the ball, he couldn't defend it at all.

Look back.

Irving is still strong enough, and he rushed in at every turn, and finally reached the basket, twisting his body and pulling the rod to pick the basket.

Again!

This is the advantage of having more giants.

After all, even an iron man needs rest.

When this giant is resting, that giant can go up and maintain firepower output.

There will be no gaps.

But Gasol's ability to protect the frame is really good, and with Ibaka's defense, he can protect the basket tightly.

the next few rounds.

The Cavaliers players could only be forced to shoot from the outside, and their shooting percentage dropped all of a sudden.

The Heat also took this opportunity to complete the overtake.

at this time.

There are still 4 minutes and 33 seconds left.

James had to come back.

The two sides brought up all the starters and started the final battle before halftime.

Knights attack.

James pushes the ball over and paces the top of the arc for a while.

Complete the pick-and-roll with Owen directly, and the killer will go in.

PJ-Tucker didn't dare to leave space for Irving, so he had to switch defenses.

But in fact, Batum's defensive ability is also good.

But his personal strength is still a level behind Tucker, and he was pushed all the way forward by James.

Ibaka came over first to help defend.

And Gasol Jr. was not far away, cutting off James' advance route.

This is the case.

James usually chooses to pass out to Love, or close to Mozgov under the basket.

But this time he didn't.

Maybe he wanted to mention his score. After all, it was almost halftime, and his score was still at 6 points. It is true that he is a bit sorry for his No.1 status in the league.

Twisting his body, he shot directly from the middle distance.

Clang.

Iron.

The Heat took the opportunity to launch a fast break.

pity.

The Cavaliers returned to defense very quickly, and the super-fast arrows like Wade were not there.

In the end, he failed to find an opportunity and could only fall into the position.

After Xue Liancheng and Gasol Jr. handed each other.

advance.

Send back again.

Then go straight to the basket.

Gasol reacted quickly and gave it immediately.

Xue Liancheng hit the basket.

It was empty.

Pick a basket with ease.

Hit again.

Look back.

James also advanced quickly.

pity.

Spoelstra also knows James' strengths and weaknesses, and his defense speed is only faster than the Cavaliers.

Fall into position postwar.

James wandered around the top of the arc for a moment.

Beckoned and called the pick-and-roll.

But this time the recruit was Mozgov.

PJ-Tucker got blocked and couldn't catch up in time.

And Gasol is squatting inside the three-point line.

My big Zhan Huang voted directly again.

It's a half-empty opportunity.

This is his first three-point attempt of the game.

pity.

Still can't feel it.

The sound of striking iron was extremely crisp.

Batum rebounded and advanced quickly with the ball.

Xue Liancheng didn't ask for the ball, but rushed to the frontcourt quickly.

Here comes the ball.

Face me big James.

Xue Liancheng didn't flinch in the slightest, but swung in a serpentine shape, killing the generals in.

But James' ability to adjust is really strong, he can react immediately, and quickly keep up, squeezing all the way.

Xue Liancheng was obviously one size smaller. This kind of physical contact made him extremely uncomfortable, but with the advantage of being stuck in his body, he still went all the way to the basket.

Turn around suddenly.

In the last Christmas battle, James had already seen Xue Liancheng's footsteps, so although he rushed over subconsciously, he didn't take off, but used his body and wingspan to put pressure on Xue Liancheng.

Xue Liancheng did not make a move, but took another step forward, squeezed in short, and took advantage of the situation.

James was overjoyed, turned around and put his arms around him, and was about to give Xue Liancheng a strong hat.

But after the jump.

He regretted it.

Xue Liancheng was halfway through, and suddenly changed hands in the air.

The arm suddenly came towards his arm.

He wanted to escape, but found that it was too late.

Xue Liancheng came here deliberately to make a foul.

While the two were in physical contact.

The arms are intertwined.

Xue Liancheng took advantage of the situation and threw the ball out.

but……

Never thought.

The whistle didn't sound.

James was ecstatic.

But that joy had just risen, and it was suppressed again.

After the ball wiped the board.

Straight into the frame.

The Heat have already led by 8 points.

Taking advantage of these two rounds, the Heat stretched the score to a controllable range.

O'Neill: "Xue Liancheng is really tough. He is strong against LeBron. Most people don't have the courage."

Barkley said: "The ball was obviously intended for a foul, but it was scored by accident, but what surprised me even more was that the referee didn't give a foul."

O'Neill nodded in agreement: "It is indeed obvious that there was a foul, and the referee probably didn't see it..."

After landing.

James exploded again: "Made FK..."

And Xue Liancheng spread his hands to the bottom line referee, indicating what does this mean?
result.

beep!
The referee stretched out his hand to signal a technical foul.

This time.

Xue Liancheng was dumbfounded.

The commentator O'Neill was dumbfounded.

Barkley was also dumbfounded.

The audience was also a little confused.

The players on both sides were also dumbfounded.

what's the situation?
Why give a technical foul?
Who is it for?
Even James was dumbfounded.

He thought he was swearing, so the referee gave him a technical foul warning.

then.

He looked at the referee, subconsciously spread his hands, his face full of innocence, and anxiously begged for an explanation: "Why? What did I do? Give me a technical foul?"

The referee pointed to Xue Liancheng, "I gave it to him."

This time.

James was even more confused.

After being dumbfounded, I was ecstatic...

Made...

make you laugh...

Xue Liancheng was dumbfounded, with a face full of disbelief, and blurted out, "Why?"

The referee replied with a cold face, "I don't allow anyone to complain to me."

As soon as this word comes out.

The reactions of the two men were very different.

James' face instantly became exciting.

And Xue Liancheng laughed directly, pointed at LeBron, and said in a calm manner, "He just spread his hands and asked why, didn't you give a technical foul?"

The referee was also a little confused: "..."

It seems so!

After he signaled a technical foul, James immediately questioned him.

However, the referee reacted quickly, and immediately replied with a cold face, "Just now he just asked me who gave me the technical foul."

Xue Liancheng's expression darkened instantly.

I am Nima!
This is clearly aimed at him.

The home whistle definitely exists, this is a well-known thing, and he is also one of the beneficiaries.

But can he not be so outrageous?
Tan Tanshou, without saying a word, gave him a technical foul.

Then according to this standard.

Wouldn't I be sent off a hundred and eight times?
What the hell...

Or is it the privilege of my big James?

Thinking so, he asked the same question.

"You said that you don't allow people to complain to you, so I would like to ask, there was a round in the first quarter, why didn't LeBron return to the defense and discuss with you? Did he register a trademark and have privileges?"
