Chapter 307

Due to the lack of James as the leader and absolute strength, the Cavaliers' offense has become more difficult. Although Irving and Love were the bosses of their respective teams last season, but to put it bluntly, the two are also They can only be the bosses in a big team and brush up the statistics. In fact, if they are really required to lead the team to fight tough battles, the effect is probably not as good as that of George Hill.

Sure enough, although the Cavaliers replaced Irving and Love early, they were still at an obvious disadvantage when facing the Pacers led by Ye Xuan, and the tone of the entire second quarter was like this It's settled.Irving's singles may still be able to achieve good results when facing other defensive players, but when facing Ye Xuan, it is not enough. After Love has no other players to help open up the space, his own The ability to play singles with the ball is relatively average, so the Pacers took advantage of the opportunity in the second quarter when James was backed by three fouls and did not dare to play, and expanded the point difference advantage to 10 points in one fell swoop.

After the first half, the fans in the Conseco Arena were very excited. After all, the Cavaliers are now their direct competitors. As long as they win this game, the Pacers will be able to return to the second place in the Eastern Conference. The throne, and the performance of the home team they supported in the first half also made them very relieved.Because not only did Ye Xuan perform well as usual, but even Hibbert, who had been very unstable in the past, performed amazingly in this match.After scoring 19 points and 11 rebounds at halftime in the previous game, Hibbert scored 14 points and 9 rebounds at halftime in this game again.

Although the stats are not as impressive as the previous game, it is also related to Ye Xuan's choice of ball distribution. In the last game, Ye Xuan basically only passed the ball to Hibbert, so Hibbert's stats are naturally very high. In this game, because Ye Xuan is very eager to win the game, the choice of passing is also very reasonable. Basically, whoever has a good chance, he will wear it to whomever, and he did not specifically help Hibbert. point.

The second half of the game started soon. James was very active as soon as he came on the court, mainly because he didn't play much in the second quarter, so he was still very physically fit. As soon as he came up, he played consecutive singles. Solomon Hill succeeded , although West and Hibbert on the inside also made some supplementary defenses after James passed Solomon Hill, James still scored 3 points insanely 11 minutes before the opening of the third quarter. The Pacers' offense was not too disturbed, and the Cavaliers might just catch up with the score.

Fortunately, Ye Xuan still showed his dominance on the offensive end. First, he used the step-back jumper after the pick-and-roll to directly hit a long-range three-pointer, and then hit the opponent when he was not focused after finishing the offense. One was caught off guard.And then he completed a beautiful alley-oop with Hibbert during the offense, which attracted another burst of cheers from the audience. This did not allow the Cavaliers to quickly close the score. Halfway through, the Cavaliers still narrowed the point difference between the two teams to 3 points.

The Pacers took the initiative to call a timeout, and replaced Shumpert and West, who were relatively average, with their own super sixth man JR-Smith and Diamond Scola.In fact, Ye Xuan's physical strength has dropped to less than 40% at this time. After all, he has to constantly entangle with George Hill and Dellavedova on the offensive end, and he has to contain Owen's performance on the defensive end. His stamina dropped very quickly, but Ye Xuan took advantage of this pause and directly chose to use a large stamina potion, restoring his stamina to nearly 70% of the level.

And at this time, due to James' various singles, his physical energy was also consumed very quickly, so at this time James' physical energy had gradually dropped to a point where he could not support his infinite singles, but suddenly he became energetic again at this time Ye Xuan, who caught the Cavaliers by surprise, made breakthroughs in three consecutive rounds and directly scored 5 points and 1 assist, extending the lead of the Pacers to 8 points.

At this time, the Cavaliers also began to panic a little, because their tactic was to consume Ye Xuan's physical energy and then start to exert their strength in the second half of the third quarter, defeating the Pacers in one fell swoop, but from this point of view, Ye Xuan not only What the hell is it that you are not tired, but you are getting more and more energetic.

But this is the case with the Pacers. When Ye Xuan was on the court, he was a pack of wolves. When Ye Xuan left the court, he turned into a bunch of huskies. Now Ye Xuan took a large physical strength recovery potion to support the situation. The fierce offensive of the Cavaliers was resisted, not only that, but now that Hibbert is slowly gaining confidence, the Cavaliers not only have to find a way to contain Ye Xuan, but also need to divide their troops to guard against Hibbert's sudden attack. This made it even more difficult for the Cavaliers to play.

After three quarters, the Pacers have steadily maintained their lead at 10 points. The Cavaliers are still preparing for an ultimate counterattack, because they expect Ye Xuan to play through the third quarter. No matter what, they had to rest for a few minutes, but after the game started, they were a little dizzy because Ye Xuan suddenly appeared on the court, because during the intermission, they decisively used small physical strength The recovery potion was also used up, and he applied directly to coach Frank to continue playing. Frank Vogel naturally would not refuse.

As a result, the strongest counterattack of the Cavaliers, under the interception of a group of bench bandits led by Ye Xuan, took 4 minutes to narrow the point difference to 5 points. The main force of the Cavaliers, who had been on the field for a long time, was already at the end of his battle. He persisted on the court for about 4 minutes. Seeing that the difference between the two teams was reduced from 5 points, he was slowly drawn again. After driving to 9 points, the Cavaliers are also a little desperate.

Although James still did not give up his desire for victory in the last few minutes, he still fought hard on the court, and scored 4 points in the last 11 minutes, but facing Ye Xuan who still did not feel tired and 9 Even with the gap of points, he could only reap one defeat in the end.
