Chapter 356
The Cavaliers' attack, even Lebron, who had passed two balls in a row, couldn't help it.
He received the ball at the top of the arc, signaled his teammates to pull away, and after posing for a singles...
In the commentary seat, Reggie Miller said with a smile: "LeBron is finally going to do it, and the genuine quarterback offense is coming."
At the focus of the audience's attention, Lebron slapped the basketball, and there was a dense and coquettish crotch.
Immediately after a tank charged, the raised left arm turned into an elbow, pushing away Li Ke who was in close contact with him.
After that, he accelerated again, stepping on the floor like a war trampling, as if he was about to sweep away Li Ke and rush into the Lynx's three-point line.
But Li Ke turned around, accelerated, and focused on Le Bang again.
"I didn't say you can go!"
Lebon felt the pressure from behind, and he continued to accelerate, crazily, mindlessly.
Snapped!
Tajibson, who suddenly came out from one side, controlled the basketball that suddenly flew randomly.
There was cheering in the court, and Reggie Miller also shouted: "Nice cut, Tajibson controlled the basketball, and the Bobcats counterattacked!"
A quick counterattack was formed in an instant. Li Ke received a pass from Tajibson and rushed out.
"Wait, it doesn't look like Tajibson's chip?"
"Looks like LeBron lost his luck?"
Reggie Miller corrected his mistake, and yes, it was Le Bon who lost his luck.
Lebron spread his hands in the backcourt, and the Bobcats had formed a three-on-two counterattack in the frontcourt.
Li Ke still didn't pass the ball, he strode forward, carried Artest directly, and rushed to the near frame area.
He raised his hand, faked a layup, then used a better hang, changed direction, made a layup with a low hand, and threw the ball out.
Swish-!
"The low-handed layup in the counterattack, Sheldon scored consecutively, and the tie was 4-4!"
"Ron Artest's defense is almost meaningless..."
Jeff Van Gundy shook his head. He is also a defensive coach, so his focus is naturally on defense.
At the beginning, the Cavaliers sacrificed part of their offense for defense. Curry's two irons gave them the feeling that they were going to succeed.
But when Li Ke exerted his strength, everything turned into ashes.
"A Ron Artest wants to limit Sheldon? Don't think too much."
Reggie Miller shook his head. What he was looking forward to now was the Cavaliers' offense. There was no three-point shooter, Le Bon was stared down by Li Ke, and Wade missed one after hitting two in a row.
Next, how should the Cavaliers attack?
The Cavaliers kicked off from the backcourt and quickly advanced to the frontcourt.
Lebon controlled the ball at the top of the arc, and the two sides did not pull apart, which meant that Lebon had to do the pivot again.
However, Li Ke did not ignore the possible changes of Lebang because of this. He continued to take a step and watched Wade rushing over, but he did not make any moves.
Wade's empty run was just involved, and Bosh sat on Tajibson in a high position and received a pass from LeBon.
"This is going to be a single for Bosh, look at Tajibson's defense..."
Rivers folded his arms, and he is now a little thankful that he changed the starting lineup before the game.
Bosh couldn't move Tajibson, so he could only turn around and shoot a jumper.
Bang!
"Not in!"
Reggie Miller shook his head: "The Cavaliers don't play like them anymore. Up to now, they have been playing singles. The so-called quarterback offense has not been played until now..."
It's not that it didn't come out, but it didn't.
The core of the quarterback offense is LeBron.
But Lebron is very smart. He knows that if he plays this quarterback offense against Li Ke's defense, he is giving away.
Not to mention the success rate, but in terms of physical fitness alone, Lebron doesn't have the confidence to carry Li Ke's defense for the entire game.
In order to achieve sustainable development, Lebron played a little bit seriously.
Under the basket, Jordan took off the rebound.
The Bobcats counterattacked, and in the frontcourt, Captain Jack continued to support at the top of the arc.
Li Ke came out to catch the ball, raised his hand from beyond the three-point line, and Artest took a step forward.
But this was a fake move. After clicking Artest's center of gravity, he brushed Artest and rushed in.
The Cavaliers still relied on the zone defense to make up for the leak, and Lebron rushed over. This time, Li Ke passed the ball.
On the left, Captain Jack, who circled beyond the three-point line, received the ball, glanced at the basket, and shot.
Swish-!
7 to 4, the Bobcats overtook the score.
That's right, Captain Jack also has three-pointers, although not so accurate, the average shooting percentage is only 34.1%.
But the number is large, averaging 4.6 shots and 1.6 hits per game.
The accuracy is not enough, but he can shoot and go in. Artest, Le Bon, and Wade on the opposite side are all "shooters" of this type.
The difference is that Captain Jack's vacancy is very simple. The reason is that the Bobcats have Li Ke, a qualified three-point shooter, and Curry, a historical three-point shooter.
The space on the court is wide open, just like the ball just now, Captain Jack is almost alone standing outside the left three-point line.
For the remaining Bobcat players, Li Ke has rushed to the middle distance, Curry is on the right sideline, Jordan is under the basket, and Tajibson has shrunk to the bottom corner.
The Cavaliers' defense was pulled to pieces, and LeBon went to make up for it. Bosh on the weak side wanted to make up for the strong side, but the distance was too far and time was running out.
Backcourt, Varejao handed the ball to Wade.
Wade slowed down in the backcourt, looking around for LeBron.
He wanted to play the quarterback offense, wanted to play the quarterback offense directly from the backfield.
But Lebron had already arrived in the frontcourt, and Wade had no choice but to dribble the ball across half court first.
Upfield, LeBron catches the ball and keeps doing the shaft...
After 2 minutes, Lebon, who had been doing the shaft, finally got the chance he wanted.
At the beginning, it was the Bobcats' round. Li Ke caught the ball and made a sudden stop, and made a mid-range shot.
Clang!
The basketball hit the edge of the hoop and bounced far.
Wade, who was in the middle distance, saw the basketball flying towards him, jumped up, and intercepted the rebound in mid-air.
Before he landed, Lebron shouted: "Counterattack!"
Immediately afterwards, the knight fired three arrows.
Wade landed very fast, LeBron even faster.
On the Bobcats side, Captain Jack's reaction was a bit slower. Although Curry followed, he only stared at Artest on one side, and the strong side became Li Ke's one defense and two defenses.
Wade was sprinting with the ball, and Lebon on the other side had already taken his king's dance steps and rushed straight to the basket domineeringly. He felt that Li Ke would definitely defend Wade.
And he can start his big show.
"Janeway is connected? You want to eat farts!"
Li Ke knows Lebron very well. At this time, he also remembered Kobe's defensive theory.
That is: facing a player A who has just signed a maximum salary and another player B whose contract is about to expire, the correct defense is to double-team B without thinking.
Emmm, Li Ke actually thinks that Kobe may have actually experienced this theory. Isn’t A just him, and isn’t B just the shark who has been trying to get a maximum salary from the Bass family’s pocket all those years?
Transplanting this defensive theory to the Cavaliers, it can be:
Lock up Lebron and let Wade beat him by a dozen.
In this way, Le Bang will be in a hurry, because he will never be willing to be a green leaf.
If the defense continues like this, there will definitely be problems with Lebang's mentality.
So, on the court, facing a situation of one defense and two defenses, Li Ke knew that losing points was inevitable, so, why not...
He rushed in front of Le Bang, a pair of strong arms tightly wrapped around Le Bang.
Bang!
Behind him, Wade has already made a Tomahawk-style dunk and sent the ball into the basket.
He is very excited, because the game has reached this point, and his state can be called hot.
On the other hand...
The first quarter of the game ended soon after Reggie Miller and Jeff Van Gundy shook their heads.
Because this game was not as exciting as expected, the Cavaliers seemed to be lost.
Offense, they can't play the quarterback offense they are good at.
The defense and the adjusted starting lineup failed to withstand Li Ke's impact.
Fortunately, on the offensive end, Wade broke out. He scored 13 points in the first quarter, supporting the Cavaliers.
On the defensive end, although they failed to withstand Li Ke's impact, they still did a good job of restricting Curry and Captain Jack.
So, to sum up, the first quarter of the game was a dislocation match between Li Ke and Wade.
Wade scored 13 points and 2 assists, and Li Ke also scored 12 points and 3 assists. The two can be said to have played equally.
In the first quarter of the game, the Bobcats and the Cavaliers also had an even match.
Under the targeted defense of the Cavaliers, the Bobcats scored 25 points, while the defensive Cavaliers only scored 22 points.
Leading by 3 points in the first quarter, the difference of one goal is completely negligible.
During the break, Rivers touched his chin, and the coaching staff's discussion was in his ear.
"Obviously, we shouldn't use Tower to replace Antoine in the starting lineup. If Antoine is the starting lineup, our offense will definitely not only score 25 points."
"But without the tower, Chris Bosh, who was 5 for 2 in the first quarter, becomes 5 for 4."
"It's not that exaggerated. Although Antoine's defense is average, it's not a big problem to beat Bosh."
"It's not a big problem? No matter how big Bo is, he's still a giant!"
"..."
Arguing between Elvin Gentry and Bickerstaff Jr., an offensive coach and a defensive coach, it's normal to quarrel, and the Bobcats have grown used to it.
After thinking for a while, Rivers patted the tactical board: "Okay, two, be quiet. In the second quarter, we should indeed try to shift our focus to the offensive end."
That's it, Rivers made the decision.
In the second quarter, the Bobcats started with point guard Jr., shooting guard Wesley Matthews, small forward Li Ke, power forward Jamison, and center Kua Zhuang.
Of the five starters at the beginning, only Li Ke continued to play.
On the Cavaliers' side, Larry Brown just removed Wade, who was in excellent form in the first quarter but also consumed a lot, and kept Le Bon and Bosh.
Throw in Randy Foye, Maurice Evans and Mike Bibby, and you have an all-out lineup.
The game started and the Bobcats went first.
This is the Eastern Conference finals, Li Ke didn't have any polite thoughts, he directly took the ball and attacked one.
In the first quarter, Artest was always defending Li Ke. Now that Artest is gone, Randy Foye and Maurice Evans in the second and third positions can't defend Li Ke.
Lebron could only bite the bullet and do it by himself.
If a season ago, Lebron would still be one of the most effective opponents against Li Ke.
but now……
"Sheldon, put your back on LeBron, turn around and break through..."
A back, followed by a fake turn to the left, then a sudden change to the right.
Just like this, he carried Le Bang on his shoulders and rushed in at a high speed.
Unlike Artest, Lebang's power is so great that after Li Ke rushed out a few steps, it would be difficult to continue.
He made an emergency stop in the middle distance, and in the breath of Time Warner Center, he threw the ball.
"A mid-range emergency stop after a breakthrough..."
Swish-!
"The goal was scored. Just after returning from the second quarter, Sheldon scored a goal against LeBron's defense!"
LeBron took the basketball from Bosh with no expression on his face and pushed it up the court.
In the first quarter, he only attempted two quarterback offenses, both of which were resolved by Li Ke's single defense.
For the rest of the time, he was reluctant to even try.
But now, no matter how unwilling he is, without Wade, only Bo Bo is left, and he has to stand up and play two.
On the outside line, there were two coquettish crotches again, Le Bang suddenly sped up, bumped Li Ke on the wrong shoulder, and rushed in.
Li Ke's reaction was quick, without losing his position, he retreated and continued to entangle Le Bang.
After two steps, Lebron could not continue.
He turned around, leaned against Li Ke, and slammed the ball to the outside.
Mike Bibby, who just went around the sideline, received the ball. The old Bibby was already in his twilight years, and he knew his purpose of joining the Cavaliers very well.
He wants a championship, but now, the Bobcats are the enemy in front of them, they must beat the Bobcats.
Bibby is also very aware of his role in the Cavaliers, he is a three-point shooter.
At his peak, Bibby was a super shooter, and now, he is also a rare stable three-point shooter in the Cavaliers.
He averaged 4.0 shots per game, 1.8 hits, and a hit rate of 45.5%.
Now, he received a hard pass from LeBron.
He knew that passing the ball back was the most correct choice.
But what Le Bon wants to see more is that he shoot directly.
So, Bibby shot directly.
Bang-dang-!
The basketball hits the frame heavily...
At the basket, Kua Zhuangyuan grabbed the rebound, and the offense and defense switched.
The Bobcats fought a wave of counterattacks, and the Cavaliers who had changed to play one big and four juniors withstood the Bobcats' counterattacks.
But in the end, Li Ke still took advantage of the time lag that Bosh could not return to the defense in time, and quickly passed Le Bang by his own momentum.
Rushing to the basket, raising his hand and throwing it, Li Ke scored the fourth point of the second quarter.
The score also became 29 to 22, and the Bobcats led from 3 points to 7 points.
The Cavaliers' offense started from the backcourt, and LeBron played another wave of their "good" quarterback offense.
He held the ball straight from the backcourt and penetrated to the frontcourt.
Li Ke discovered Le Bang's intentions, and he stepped forward directly.
boom!
The muscles collided, and Li Ke was right.
Le Bang turned around, trying to take advantage of the situation to wipe Li Ke.
But the moment he turned around, Li Ke shot from behind...
Snapped!
"The ball dropped and Sheldon made a sudden cut!"
The basketball was bouncing, and Li Ke went straight to the frontcourt. He controlled the basketball and rushed to the frontcourt.
No one can stop Li Ke anymore. He crossed the half court, broke through the three-point line, and when he stepped on the free throw line, he thought of the iconic free throw line to take off and dunk.
Immediately, he stepped heavily on the ground with his feet and jumped up.
The whole person leaped into the air, stretched out his arms, and ruthlessly poured the ball into the basket!
Bang!
The cheers of the Time Warner Center were instantly ignited and swept from all directions.
