"A beautiful counterattack. The Cleveland Cavaliers took advantage of a successful quick move. The two counterattacked and caught the Portland Trail Blazers off guard. I have to say that the connection between James and Irving is quite similar to James and Irving's connection in previous seasons.
The style of the line..."
Irving and James high-fived each other, looking like a pair of teammates who worked well together.
The Trail Blazers attacked and they made a comeback. Lillard was the one holding the ball. This time Wang Zelin decided to continue attacking.
Wang Zelin pulled out from the basket and received the ball one step before the free throw line. At this time, he was already on the weak side with few defensive players, and decisively chose to single out Cousins.
Cousins' defense was very tight, but facing a player who was getting better and better every year, his defense still failed.
Wang Zelin made a fake move to drive away Cousins and broke through to the basket.
Varejao on the inside hadn't had time to defend, or he had clearly reacted, but faced Wang Zelin's sprint like a tiger down the mountain, he hesitated.
After this hesitation, Wang Zelin rushed to the basket, took off in stride, hung his hands on the frame, and successfully scored two points.
"Zelin scored, with his iconic dunk with both hands on the frame. The Cavaliers' interior defense was like a piece of paper in front of him, breaking with just one poke."
In the live broadcast of the Imperial TV station, Zhang Lili was a little excited: "This shot was so beautiful, especially the dunk after passing Cousins with a fake move, which all showed the exquisiteness of Zelin's dribbling skills!"
It’s really hard to imagine that such a dribble would actually appear on a 7-foot-long man. With this shot, it can be said that Zhelin defeated the Cavaliers’ defense by himself!”
The score became 4:2, and the Trail Blazers took the lead.
Next, the Cavaliers, who had the ball in hand, started a positional attack. James took over the ball and launched a sudden attack.
He breaks through with the ball and then looks for opportunities to attack the frame or distribute the ball.
But with this ball, with Lillard closely guarding Irving, James, who was bandaged, could only pass the ball to Dion West in the mid-range.
Speaking of which, Dion West was also a player in the same draft class as Wang Zelin and Lillard, and was selected by the Cavaliers with the fourth overall pick in the first round in the 2012 draft.
In the past two seasons, Dion West can be regarded as one of the players who have paid off in the 2012 draft. Together with Wang Zelin and Lillard, he was selected to the first and second teams of the rookie team, averaging per game in the two seasons.
The score is basically around 15.
Considering that the No. 1 draft pick has become a parallel importer, Dion West, who has gradually developed into a league-level player two years after entering the league, can be regarded as worthy of the training of the Cavaliers management.
However, Dion West, who is only 1.93 meters tall and whose draft ceiling template is Wade, is used to attacking with the ball as a power dual position. In the past, he could compete for the ball when partnering with Irving in the backcourt.
, but with the return of James, let alone Dion West, even Irving will not be able to compete with James on the issue of ball rights.
When the team's status changed from a ball-holding attacker to an off-ball shooter, Dion West obviously did not adapt to this role change. In the past three games, his performance was obviously much worse than last season.
Therefore, after receiving a pass from James, Dion West made a mid-range shot as expected.
Seeing this scene, James frowned subconsciously.
After three consecutive games, James could sense that Dion West proved that his teammate's style clearly did not match his own.
The draft template is Wade, but it doesn’t mean you are the real Wade!
As the regular season progresses, Dion West's performance is still poor. The little emperor's patience with the former is constantly being exhausted. He only needs to wait until the day when his patience is exhausted, that is when Dion West leaves the team.
The Cavaliers attacked on offense, and the Trail Blazers then launched a counterattack. Lillard advanced with the ball, and then faced Irving's defense, it was not too easy.
"Whoosh!"
Suddenly, Irving was directly passed by Lillard!
Cavaliers coach David Blatt's eyes widened on the sidelines.
Before the Cavaliers' two insiders had time to return to defense, Lillard passed by Irving and quickly rushed into the paint.
However, the real danger has not yet arrived.
As Lillard continued to rush to the basket and capture the Cavaliers' position, James suddenly jumped out from behind him.
"James' iconic chasing hat?"
"Careful, Lillard!"
In the commentary box, Yu Jia and Zhang Lili exclaimed, and their expressions became nervous.
"snort!"
James didn't notice that the corners of Lillard's mouth suddenly turned up slightly, revealing an inexplicable smile.
"Snapped!"
"Um?"
James swung out his palm, but found that the ball in front of him was missing, and his slap finally hit the backboard.
There is a saying that the mantis stalks the cicada, followed by the oriole.
Behind James, a person was following.
Everyone took a closer look and saw that it was Wang Zelin!
"boom!"
I saw Wang Zelin rush inside to receive Lillard's ground-breaking pass, then smashed the ball with brutal hands and slammed the ball into the basket.
The next moment, in the stunned eyes of the fans on the sidelines, James, who had just landed after chasing the hat to no avail, quickly met Wang Zelin who rushed in and jumped up. Then James seemed to be hit by a train, completely unable to control his body.
The baseline was knocked away in an instant, and finally it was hit under the basket frame before it came to a halt.
The scene was in an uproar.
Wang Zelin's attack today was so brutal!
This time he dunked James directly!
"Oh ho ho ho!"
The commentator at the Rose Garden Arena let out an excited scream.
Under the basket, how could the reporters sent by the major media miss this scene? The cameras kept clicking on the slightly embarrassed James.
In fact, not to mention the media, the head coaches and players on the bench on both sides looked surprised. Wang Zelin's brutal frame-breaking style of play almost made them fall off their feet in shock.
Although the shot just now was a mistake and some coincidence, James was actually standing under the basket after all, and he was indeed knocked out by Wang Zelin's pass and a point-cut dunk.
No need to say much else.
Presumably, after this game is over, no matter who wins, the poster of Wang Zelin dunking on James will 200% be on the trending searches across America.
"I have to say, this young man Lillard is so calm! The way he handles the ball is so mature! He is only in his third year of career, but he plays as maturely as a veteran who has been in the game for more than 10 years."
"Hey, LeBron, I forgot to tell you, this is my territory, it's best not to make yourself miserable!"
Wang Zelin chewed on his braces and glanced at James lightly.
