"I really can't imagine. Before the game, we all agreed that the Cavaliers might cause a lot of trouble for the Bobcats, and even the Bobcats would lose the game at home."
"But I didn't expect that after halftime, the Cavaliers seemed to be under the pressure of the Bobcats. The Cavaliers did not play their usual offensive level throughout the first half."
"If the first quarter was a coincidence, then in the second quarter, the Cavaliers' starting lineup still didn't take advantage of the Bobcats' second team. Then I don't think this can be described as a unilateral bad feeling of the Cavaliers."
"This shows that the Bobcats are doing a good job of defending against the Cavaliers. At least from the first half, the Bobcats' strategy on the defensive end is very effective."
"So if Mike Brown can't find a good way to break the Bobcats' defense at halftime, it's going to be hard for the Cavaliers to come back in this game."
During the intermission, TNT commentator Barkley also analyzed to his partner Kenny Smith.
Smith: "Indeed, we can see that the Bobcats are very clear about James' defense in this game, which is to let him shoot from the outside and resolutely prevent him from breaking through."
"The most important point is that the Bobcats still continue their previous defensive focus, which is basically not to double-team the star on the opposite side, and not to give them the opportunity to connect teammates."
"And this is very important, because we all know that the reason why the Cavaliers can play so well this season is because James can drive his teammates to score while scoring himself."
"However, in this game, James not only had difficulty scoring himself, but the Bobcats' defensive strategy also made it impossible for James to drive his teammates, so this situation has arisen."
"So through the above points, it is not difficult to find that Liu Rui made a very rigorous analysis of the Cavaliers' offensive methods before the game."
"Thinking about it this way, I'm not surprised or surprised if the Bobcats can win this game, because when a head coach has already done this, the team can't win the game, then this problem must be classified on the players."
Kenny Smith also expressed his analysis at halftime.
If most people are still optimistic that the Cavaliers will win the game before the game, some people think that the two teams are evenly matched and will not decide the winner until the end.
Only some loyal fans of the Bobcats will support the Bobcats without any reason, so at halftime, the wind direction of the entire outside world has completely changed.
Basically everyone is supporting the Bobcats to win the game without bloodshed.
Maybe this kind of thing is funny to say, but this is reality.
After returning from the second half, facing the targeted defense of the Bobcats, Mike Brown didn't have much to do. He could only use off-ball pick-and-rolls to let other players create more opportunities for James.
After all, it is difficult for James to have a breakthrough in one-on-one singles, so he can only use more pick-and-rolls to try to find the Bobcats' flaws.
And after James missed several long-range shots in a row, he also reduced his long-range shots.
This kind of psychological pressure will also have a great impact on the young little emperor.
However, in the face of the changes of the Cavaliers, the Bobcats still follow their own style of play without much change.
This style of playing with one force and ten games is indeed annoying, but it has to be said that it is indeed very effective.
At the end of the third quarter, the Bobcats were still at home with:
83:68
Leading the Cavaliers by 15 points, the Cavaliers are already hopeless in this game.
At the end of the third quarter, they are still 15 points behind. With the current state of the Cavaliers, even the fans can easily find that it is difficult for the Cavaliers to make a comeback.
In the fourth quarter, the two sides also had a symbolic substitution again. In the end, Mike Brown found that it was difficult for the Cavaliers to win this game, so he replaced his main lineup in advance and began to enter the training stage.
Seeing Mike Brown's substitution, Liu Rui also directly replaced the rookie player with a wave of his hand, taking this opportunity to train the rookie.
In the end, without any suspense, after the game, the Bobcats succeeded at home with:
109:91
18 points beat the Cavaliers.
The victory of this game also allowed the Bobcats to win three consecutive victories again, and after the end of the road trip in the West, the Bobcats who returned to the East have not lost yet.
If it is said that the previous win over the Bucks and Eagles was because these two teams were underdogs, then winning the Cavaliers in this game shows that the Bobcats really have the strength to win more games.
And with the victory of this game, the Bobcats also rose to third place in the East, second only to the number one Pistons and the second Heat.
The Cleveland Cavaliers are in fourth place in the Eastern Conference.
James' performance in this game can be said to be very bleak under the defense of the Bobcats.
詹姆斯在出场了36分钟的情况下，个人16投5中，三分球5中1，罚球6中4，仅得到了15分9篮板4助攻的数据。
You must know that James' average scoring per game this season is more than 30 points, but in this game James only scored 15 points, and his shooting percentage was also restricted very low.
This shows that the Bobcats' defensive strategy against James in the game was very successful.
And the Bobcats were able to win this game, and Gerald Wallace deserved the first credit, except for putting a lot of pressure on James on the defensive end.
在进攻端华莱士也是有着不俗的表现，全场比赛华莱士出场了33分钟，11投6中，三分线外5中2，罚球2中2，交出了16分5篮板11次助攻的表现。
Among them, 11 assists in a single game also set a new career high for Gerald Wallace.
In this game, Wallace sent many wonderful passes on the offensive end, assisting teammates off the ball to score.
This also makes the Bobcats very smooth on the offensive end.
In addition to Gerald Wallace, the rookie player David Lee mentioned by Liu Rui also performed well.
In the case of playing 26 minutes, he got a stable data of 11 points, 7 rebounds and 4 assists.
Especially the quarterback's long pass on the court has gradually begun to become proficient.
Without David Lee's long pass to protect the backcourt rebound, Wallace would not be able to play so freely on the court.
It is impossible for the entire Bobcats team to have such a smooth offense. The reason why they can play such a smooth offense can be said to be the joint efforts of the entire Bobcats team.
But if you want to say that the two players with the hottest touch in this game are of course the two backcourt combinations of Mo Williams and Joe Johnson.
The touch of these two usually explodes intermittently. At least in the previous few games, the two of them rarely had a common touch.
But in this game, the touch of both of them can be called very hot.
莫威廉姆斯个人14投9中，三分线外9中6，砍下了24分1篮板1助攻的数据。
乔约翰逊个人15投11中，三分线外5中3，罚球2中2，砍下了27分4篮板2助攻的数据。
The shooting percentages of both of them on the offensive end can be said to be very high.
Under this kind of offensive firepower, it is difficult for the Bobcats to lose, not to mention that it also limits the scoring of the Cavaliers, so the victory of this game is by no means accidental.
Players of the two teams hugged each other after the game, and Liu Rui also had a chat with Cavaliers head coach Mike Brown on the sidelines.
Just looking at Mike Brown in front of him, Liu Rui looked back at the assistant coach Steve Kerr behind him, always feeling a little weird.
Because in later generations Mike Brown was the assistant coach next to Cole, and he won the NBA championship with Cole.
Thinking of this, Liu Rui felt that it was natural to win this game.
Mike Brown's big brothers in his prime are all my younger brothers now. Is there any reason not to win? !
