Chapter 769 Steady Suppression
The White Bears took the backcourt rebound and handed it over to Xie Kai to advance.
Xie Kai dribbled over and faced Shumpert with the broom head.
Shumpert is actually only 196cm tall, but his hairstyle, which resembles the immortality in "Slam Dunk", makes his height instantly look more than 2 meters.As a 1st or 2nd defensive champion, he has fast speed and a stable center of gravity, and he cuts the ball steadily and ruthlessly with one hand. However, when he encounters a strong wing or a top scorer, he will struggle and sometimes encounter foul trouble.
Xie Kai and the White Bear pick and roll, Shumpert chose to go around.
The White Bear's screen area is huge, Xie Kai took a step back and shot a 3-pointer-a bit short, but the White Bear was lucky to pick up the rebound.He gave Xie Kai again, and the latter caught the ball with a heavy right hand breakthrough, and after meeting James' defense, he gave it to Jeff Green.
Jeff Green's mid-range shot -- there it is!
The Grizzlies lead 4:2.
Yu Jia sighed: "Xie Kai's speed and accuracy are really comparable to James."
Director Zhang said: "The pass was very reasonable. When encountering a flank attack, it was passed to an open teammate. Xie Kai was very selfless. This is something that a leader needs to consider comprehensively."
The Cavaliers attacked, James hit Jeff Green on the back, rushed in, attracted Shumpert from the outside after the flanking attack.
Shumpert made a 3-point shot-strike the iron!
Jeff Green received the rebound, pushed forward with the ball and gave it to Xie Kai.
Xie Kai hit Shumpert with the ball and caused a foul in the backcourt.
Xie Kai went to the free throw line and made two free throws. The Grizzlies led 6:2!
There were cheers in the stands one after another. The Cavaliers' style of play was simple and rough, that is, Jen Ou kicked and the others ate.But relatively speaking, James can use his offense to threaten the ball, but Irving's ball is not only not timely, he is more inclined to attack by himself.In this regard, he is really similar to Kobe.
Owen himself admires Kobe very much, and he thinks he is the inheritor of the Mamba spirit.He himself does not agree with James' style of play and the way he leads the team.If it weren't for James's strength, he probably wouldn't give up his position as the leader of the team at all.
The Cavaliers have hurt offense since Love was injured.Originally, as a power forward capable of inside and outside, Love averaged 20 points per game as a base, and he could open up the offensive space for Jan Ou. The dual-core breakthrough points can be directly transplanted just like the previous Heat.
But Love is reimbursed for the season, so he can only let TT play hard-fought basketball.
Love's position in the Cavaliers is like Bosh of the Heat, opening up space, hitting 3 points, occasional low post singles, and high post support.
Irving and Wade are far inferior in defense and passing awareness, but their long-range shooting ability is much stronger, so if he can develop organizational skills and strengthen defense, he is more suitable to partner with James.
Owen dribbled over and gave it to James.
With the help of a screen, James gave the lob to Mozgov under the basket.
Mozgov lobs butter hand -- out of bounds...
The ball is actually passed very well, but the butter hand is really helpless sometimes.
Yu Jia hesitated to speak, he wanted to say that there seemed to be a lot of white center forwards (Asik trembling aside), but he held back, feeling that it would be inappropriate to say this because it would easily lead to a fight.
The Grizzlies attacked, Xie Kai held the ball on the right wing and faced Shumpert.
Xie Kai held the ball frame and turned his back, leaning against the opponent, using his footsteps, half-turned continuously, shaking his shoulders, and shot a jumper with a fallback—hit!
8:2, the Grizzlies lead by 6 points, the Cavaliers timeout!
The Grizzlies played a small climax of 8:0, and the scene also ushered in a climax.
Yu Jia sighed: "Thank you for this action, it really looks like Kobe!"
Director Zhang was very emotional: "Kobe is a great player. His skills are the standard for other shooting guards to learn. I think he can be selected into the basketball textbook."
Cavaliers coach David Blatt frowned, thinking about a solution.He doesn't like Love, mainly because the All-Star power forward's defense is too poor.There are many games in the regular season, and the Cavaliers' lineup for the game is to let TT play center.But now facing each other's black and white bears, if Love exists, it is really very suitable.
But there is no if in this world.
The timeout ended, neither side made substitutions, and the game continued.
For the Cavaliers, James gave Irving a pick-and-roll, and the latter rushed to the basket and succeeded in throwing a shot, breaking the scoring drought.
8:4, the Cavaliers finally scored.
On the Grizzlies side, the Black Bears played TT in the low post, turned around and missed the shot.
TT's defense is not as good as Chasing Dream Green, whether it is experience or skill, but he is 206cm tall and has good athletic ability against the old black bear.
The Cavaliers counterattacked, James killed the frontcourt one-stop, Jeff Green couldn't keep up and had to foul.
The Cavaliers sent the ball in bounds, Irving attacked with the ball, went around the screen, rushed in, and there was no pull-up layup!
TT grabs an offensive rebound and is interfered by a black bear—miss!
Xie Kai grabbed the backcourt rebound and gave it to Conley to advance.
Yu Jia said: "I feel that Irving's body is still a little strange, maybe the injury still has a great impact on him."
Director Zhang said: "In such a short period of time, it is impossible to fully recover. There is no way to fight with injuries, and the team is also pointing at him!"
Conley made a mid-range hit after using the screen!
The Grizzlies lead 10:4!
Yu Jia sighed: "Owen is still not very good at defending against pick-and-rolls. He is easily covered. He has no awareness in advance whether to circle or squeeze. This is really much worse than when he is unpredictable when attacking."
Director Zhang said proudly: "Kobe will not be like this. On the defensive end, Kobe's strength is at the level of the best defensive team."
Yu Jia nodded and said: "Yes!" But he muttered in his heart: "Kobe can be involved in anything, and you are really capable!"
The Cavaliers couldn't shoot outside, and the Grizzlies shrunk.At the moment when the league is paying more and more attention to 3-pointers, both of their insiders are traditional insiders, let alone 3-pointers, and the mid-range is useless.And James, who plays small forward, has not been good at 3-pointers this season, which is far behind the Heat.Shooting guard Shumpert's 3-pointers are also touchy, not stable enough.Therefore, the team's most stable outside player is actually Irving at No. 1, but this young man is injured and his hand is not stable enough.
The Cavaliers have no shortage of shooters, but almost all of them are on the bench.JR, who played the sixth player, has a stable score of 6, but his mind is unstable.James Jones and Mike Miller are both sharp shooters, but they are old, colanders on the defensive end, and can hardly do anything except 3 points.
After the Grizzlies took the lead at the start of the two teams, they have been steadily controlling the situation on the court and leading the score.In the middle of the first quarter, Xie Kai was replaced by Mr. Tony.The Cavaliers also made personnel adjustments, with JR on and Shumpert off.
