Chapter 592
After the timeout, perhaps Wharton Jr. had given up on the idea of ​​continuing to train Randall, so instead of showing enough patience with him, he was replaced directly, and then replaced with Speights, who is more Reliable, plug-and-play microwave player.

Serving from the backcourt again, after Ye Xuan controlled the ball and came to the frontcourt, he called Solomon Hill to help with the pick-and-roll. After the pick-and-roll was over, Ye Xuan rushed towards the inside of the Cavaliers. Just as Ye Xuan was about to forcibly hit the basket He suddenly felt something was wrong, but he didn't want to understand what was wrong, and then he collided with Love. After the collision, Ye Xuan thought that the opponent had fouled, and threw the ball to the basket , but after a closer look at the penalty, it turned out to be his offensive foul. Now he understood what was wrong. After James switched defenses, he just stuck his left hand, otherwise he changed direction. Among them, the cunning Cavaliers, Ye Xuan cursed secretly in his heart.

James seemed to know what Ye Xuan was thinking, smiled towards Ye Xuan, then shrugged.The Cavaliers served from the sideline again. After Hill took control of the ball and came to the frontcourt, he handed the ball to James again. When Hall was still preparing to prevent James from breaking through, he pulled up and shot a three-pointer, and the three-pointer was scored.

After returning from the timeout, the game did not go as Walton Jr. expected. The Lakers gradually gained the advantage, but the Cavaliers still firmly controlled the rhythm in their own hands. The Lakers are also getting lucky now. Ye Xuan knew that at this time, he had to stand up and score, otherwise the morale of his teammates would be severely hit, so he didn't think about it at the moment, and directly gave the strengthening potion that was not planned to be used in this game to used up.

Returning to the game, Ye Xuan handed the ball to Wade, and he started to play without the ball, and Wade tried several attacks after the start of the game, but nothing worked, so he didn't Too good to continue wasting the ball, so Gasol was called to pick and roll. When the two staggered, Wade secretly handed the ball to Gasol, and Wade himself was aggressive. Owen Owen passed the pick-and-roll, so naturally he didn't see the ball had been stuffed into Gasol's hands, and Tristan Thompson, who came over after the pick-and-roll, also looked like he was sleepwalking. Straightforwardly, he followed Wade and ran in. As a result, Gasol turned around and stood firm. After taking a glance, he shot the ball steadily. The basketball was hit steadily. This three-pointer was finally given to the Lakers. He took a deep breath.

The audience at the scene finally breathed a sigh of relief after seeing the three-pointer, and they seemed to have more confidence when they continued to cheer for the Lakers.But the Cavaliers' counterattack came quickly. James immediately used Tristan Thompson's pick-and-roll to forcibly enter the inside of the Lakers, scaring Gasol and Speights, who had just been replaced, to rush to defend and double-team. As a result, I didn't expect that James didn't continue his strong attack this time, but distributed the ball to Tristan Thompson who paused for a pick-and-roll, and then followed up. What can be done, hit the ball with an easy layup after receiving the ball.

Fortunately, the Lakers finally found their own rhythm at this time, and immediately took advantage of the opponent's lack of defense on the offensive end, and Ye Xuan played a small game, successfully stabilizing the Lakers' position.In the next few minutes, the offensive efficiency of the two teams dropped. Until 7 minutes into the game, when the Cavaliers replaced George Hill for a rest, the score of the two teams was only 21:15. The team trailed the opponent by 6 points.And the Cavaliers replaced George Hill with Korver, obviously in order to allow Hill to play and lead the bench for a while, at least to give Lao Zhan and other core players a chance to rest for a while. .

I have to say that coach Tyronn Lue's substitution this time is much more reasonable than the substitution in the previous game. First of all, he no longer replaced Deron Williams, a player who needs the ball. Both Irving and Lao Zhan can control the ball. The replaced Korver can not only put some outside pressure on the opponent, but also allow the Lakers to weigh it carefully before double-teaming.And he didn't mean to let Korver defend Ye Xuan when he replaced Korver, but replaced TT with Richard Jefferson, a veteran, to defend Ye Xuan. Although Jefferson's defensive skills are relatively average , but at least he won't suffer too much in terms of physical confrontation and footwork, and the Lakers also replaced Wade and Gasol, replacing Clarkson and Larry Nance Jr. It can be concluded that Walton Jr. can't bear to watch Randall's poor performance in the playoffs, so he is going to reduce his playing time so that other players can get some opportunities to exercise.

The game restarted, and Lao Zhan controlled the ball and came to the frontcourt. Perhaps it was because the offense in the first half consumed a lot of energy, so Lao Zhan did not choose to continue to play by himself, but passed the ball to Irving. Owen received the ball and called Le Fu pick and roll, but this time Irving did not continue to hit the basket, but used the pick and roll to take two steps to the side and then directly made a mid-range shot. Today's Cavaliers probably have the determination to win, so even if they go up It took almost 6 minutes to run back and forth in the half quarter. Irving, who only made 2 shots, still played very confidently. This time, he also succeeded in helping the Cavaliers continue to score when Lao Zhan's firepower was out of gear.

And looking back, Ye Xuan, who was already under the effect of the strengthening potion, finally started to show his power. Since he had been passing the ball and assisting all the time, after using the strengthening potion, Ye Xuan hadn't played singles with the ball. But now that Wade is replaced, Ye Xuan will naturally start to shoulder the heavy responsibility of scoring, changing direction continuously, and then pulling up is a long-range two-point shot. The basketball is steadily hit. Jefferson's hand is actually already It was sealed on Ye Xuan's face, but Ye Xuan still made the shot. This is the role of a star, and it doesn't make sense to be accurate.

Looking back, the Cavaliers handed the ball to James again, and Lao Zhan received the ball and called Love for a pick-and-roll again, but this time Lao Zhan still did not choose to hit the basket, but used the pick-and-roll to take two steps to the side and then came directly. He took a fadeaway jumper, but at this time Lao Zhan also lost a little physical strength, and this time he missed the mid-range shot.

When Ye Xuan saw that his opponent missed a shot, his first reaction was to go for a fast break, but he didn't expect that Tristan Thompson, who had never had a sense of presence, started to show off at this time, leaping high and grabbing the offensive rebound He came down and passed the ball to James again. It was too late for Ye Xuan to run back to defend. James did not stop after receiving the ball, and just flicked the ball to Irving, who was vacated from the three-point line. , the latter still had time to brew after receiving the ball before making a shot, and made a steady shot.

Irving scored five points in a row, which suppressed the Lakers' point-chasing offensive. Ye Xuan's habit of playing fast breaks can't be changed. Although it's not Ye Xuan's fault, after all, the inside players didn't protect the rebounds. Come down, but if this kind of situation happens all the time, it is indeed a bit embarrassing.In fact, Ye Xuan's choice can sometimes create miraculous effects. Although there is an own goal like the ball just now, Ye Xuan's style of play also creates many fast-break scoring opportunities for the Lakers in normal times. , can be regarded as pros and cons.

He raised his hand to signal to his teammates that it was his fault, then returned to the backcourt to catch the ball, and slowly controlled the ball to the backcourt. Ye Xuan also wanted to make up for it immediately, so he didn't wait for his teammates to take their positions. With a sudden start, Richard Jefferson's defense was fairly timely, and he didn't give Ye Xuan a chance to attack, but his reaction was not as fast as the young man's. , was thrown away by Ye Xuan's emergency stop, Ye Xuan even had a chance to aim at the spot and then shot again after the emergency stop, and hit the attack steadily, finally helped the Lakers get back two more. point.

After a few more rounds, the two teams each scored 2 points, and then began to rotate. The Lakers replaced Solomon Hill and Speights with Matt Barnes. As well as Nick Young, who performed poorly in the last game, plus Ye Xuan, this lineup is a standard lineup of one big, four small, and fast break points. However, the Cavaliers also came up with a small lineup. Except for James, they are still strong. In addition, Irving was still put on the court, and Love was replaced, but replaced with a weakened and weakened version of Little Love-Channing Frye, plus Korver and Li Chad - Jefferson, the offensive firepower of this lineup is not bad.

However, for the Lakers, the move of the Cavaliers to replace Frye does not pose any threat. Now the Lakers only have a small Larry Nance inside. Not very good, Frye basically didn't have any inside offense, he just floated outside to shoot three-pointers, so the two teams were considered small lineups, and didn't consider any inside offense or inside defense at all.

This lineup is actually dominated by the Cavaliers. After all, James and Irving are on the court, but in this game, I don’t know if the Lakers’ substitute players are all bloody. In the remaining 3 minutes of the first quarter During the time, the Cavaliers did not expand the point difference by even one point. The Cavaliers scored a two-pointer, the Lakers immediately returned a two-pointer, and Irving turned around and scored a three-pointer. , Ye Xuan immediately made a three-pointer, so the two teams opened up their offense in the last 3 minutes, you and me one by one, and they tied 3:11 in 11 minutes. The score was extended to 34:28 in an instant, and the Lakers were still 6 points behind.

At the beginning of the second quarter, the Lakers replaced Ye Xuan and Larry Nance Jr. to rest and replaced Wade and Gasol. The Cavaliers also replaced Irving and replaced them with Love.Originally, coach Jr. Wharton thought that after Ye Xuan was replaced, the other two cores would be able to support the situation. However, he did not expect that James was a bit too perverted today. After coming up, he played singles with the ball for two consecutive rounds He passed Matt Barnes twice. In one round, he successfully passed Barnes and then made a layup, and in the other round, he sent a lob after a breakthrough to help Love hit a goal.This is still the performance he played in the first quarter of the game without any rest at all, and before the game, in order to motivate his teammates, James has said that as long as there is no necessary situation in this game, he will not play. I will rest after the game, so this can be regarded as fulfilling my promise.

However, the Lakers' offense was not as smooth as expected. Wade's two counterattacks ended with a strike, and the other time he made a mistake when he was forced to pass the ball and passed directly out of bounds. Ye Xuan, who was off the court, was also a little dizzy. He had only been off the court for less than 1 minute, and the team immediately went from being behind by 6 points to being behind by 10 points.

Fortunately, the Lakers gradually regained their status in the next few attacks. Clarkson and Nick Young each made a three-pointer, which helped the team recover some of the decline, but the Cavaliers' offense still had no way to prevent it. Afterwards, under James' organization, the Cavaliers' bench players also became Super Saiyans. After a while, the veteran Jefferson came out and scored a throw, and after a while, Korver made another three-pointer. Divided shots kept the score gap at around 6-10 points, which did not allow the Lakers to find a chance to recover the score.

Little Wharton saw that the situation was not good, and he didn't care about any pre-planned substitution strategy, so he called a timeout and replaced Ye Xuan. Ye Xuan's return indeed brought the Lakers' offense back on track. After he came up, on the one hand, he was able to attract the opponent's defense and help his teammates find opportunities to attack. On the other hand, it was also because his hand feeling today was much better than that of Wade. The trend of super ghosts, all kinds of strikes and mistakes, let alone how depressed they are.

And Ye Xuan did not disappoint his teammates and coach. After coming up, the first round was a completely unreasonable solo performance. After continuous crotch dribbles, he suddenly started, and then passed Richard Jefferson with butterfly steps. , turned around and avoided James' double-teaming, and finally hit the ball forcibly against Love's block, and also caused Love's foul. The audience, who had been suppressed for a long time, burst into enthusiastic cheers.
