Five seconds into the game, Curry took the lead with a super long three-pointer.
As soon as this three-pointer was scored, the morale of the Cavaliers was obviously much lowered.
Curry's hero's return hit the Cavaliers players hard.
Although Mike Brown's crazy chicken soup had some effect, the Cavaliers players were still worried.
When Curry was here before, we had no chance of winning. The lead just now was because Curry left the game injured.
Now that Curry is back, can we maintain our lead?
The Cavaliers players were already muttering in their hearts, but Curry's super long three-pointer directly frustrated Gibson and others.
Can this still be fought?
Is that human being?
We worked hard for a long time to tie the score, but someone came back and overtook the score within seconds!
give up!
Give me the ball, I want to go home!
Of course, frustration is frustration. We are all professional players and will not give up the game just yet.
Especially with a backbone like James here!
James' leadership skills are still very strong!
Seeing that the morale of his teammates was low, James quickly gathered his teammates together and shouted loudly: "Don't be afraid, he is throwing things! It's just good luck! We can win the game! This is our home court!"
Regardless of whether it is chicken soup or not, it is still very effective to have someone stand up and yell.
The game continues.
This time it was the Cavaliers' turn to attack.
James dribbled to the frontcourt. Prince took two steps back and stood inside the three-point line staring at James.
It's impossible to shoot easily, let alone break through!
You can make a difficult three-pointer. If you make it, you will be great!
James is not stupid, he will not easily challenge a defensive champion like Prince.
James waved and Gibson ran up.
Curry is guarding Gibson, and replacing Curry in front of James is what the Cavaliers want to do most.
However, Deng Fang made special arrangements for this.
Gibson blocked Prince, and Curry stepped forward to block it, not giving James a chance to easily break through, and then quickly returned to his position.
Prince, on the other hand, huddled inside and couldn't come out.
If you can use this gap time to score a three-pointer, I'll admit it!
I just bullied you for not having this ability!
The Cavaliers failed to complete two consecutive pick-and-rolls.
In desperation, James had to ask Xiao Mo to come up and cover.
Belinelli is defending Mo Mo, and his defense is not very good either.
However, Deng Fang also made special arrangements.
Xiao Mo's physical fitness is very average, it will be difficult for him to block Prince.
As long as he was not completely blocked, Prince would squeeze through from behind.
If Xiao Mo's body is completely blocked, then switch to defense.
If Belinelli switches defense in front of James, let Lopez return to the penalty area to help defend.
Belinelli took a step back to defend, giving James a chance to shoot a three-pointer, but not letting him break in!
As for Jamison, who was vacated by the Cavaliers, they relied on Curry, Azubuike and Prince to help defend.
Anyway, Azubuike and Prince have excellent defensive abilities, covering a large area together!
Curry is full of energy, runs with all his strength, and can also interfere with the Cavaliers' open players.
If you really have no choice, just put Jamison in the corner to shoot!
His three-point shooting is not very reliable anyway!
Deng Fang arranged it very well.
Xiao Mo came up and tried to block Prince, but failed.
Seeing that the time was almost up, James had no choice but to take a step in, and then made an emergency stop to shoot the mid-range shot.
It's impossible to push inward.
Lopez is waiting in the penalty area!
Prince is not a vegetarian either!
Fortunately, James was lucky. The basketball bounced twice when it hit the basket and finally rolled in.
The Cavaliers overtook the score again.
There is more than one minute left in the game.
It's the Warriors' turn to attack.
Curry dribbled to the frontcourt, and James followed Curry closely.
The Cavaliers no longer have Anthony Parker guarding Curry!
Anthony Parker is the second-best defensive player in the Cavaliers' lineup, and his perimeter defense is still very good.
Since the Cavaliers have a small lineup, James is more suitable to help defend inside.
So Mike Brown had Anthony Parker guard Curry on the first possession.
After Curry hit a long three-pointer, Mike Brown immediately realized that he had to make a substitution.
Curry's hand feels great and there is no problem with his body!
In this case, Anthony Parker can only prevent Curry's shots or breakthroughs. It is impossible to completely restrict Curry.
If the movement is too big, the referee may call Anthony Parker a foul!
Curry is a superstar after all!
Just now Curry was knocked unconscious again!
If an inconspicuous player were to defend Curry, he would easily be called a foul by the referee if he made bigger moves.
Not even if the referee helps the knight!
The best way is to let James guard Curry.
You are a superstar and so am I!
The referee can blow Anthony Parker, but does he dare to blow James?
Even if it's not the Cavaliers' home court, referees generally wouldn't dare to do that, right?
It is for this reason that whenever the critical moment comes, the Cavaliers will let James defend the opponent's arrowhead.
Of course, this is only one reason.
The more important reason is that James' defense is very good.
James is very good at guarding outside players, and can also switch to the inside, which can very well dismantle the opponent's offense.
Mike Brown has a great idea.
Whether Curry wants to shoot a three-pointer or rush inside, James can interfere with Curry.
If Lopez comes up to pick-and-roll with Curry, James can switch to the inside.
The most important thing is that James can give Curry a great psychological deterrent!
How did you get down just now?
Does that elbow feel good?
Still want to try it?
In no mood?
If you don’t want to, just be honest!
I don’t know whether Curry was too frightened to attack, or he was enraged after seeing James and insisted on attacking. This is good news for the Cavaliers!
But Curry didn't lose his cool.
Curry did not choose to attack, nor did Lopez come up to pick and roll.
If you ask James to come up and defend me, then I will give the ball to Lopez!
Lopez is playing Jamison in the low post, let's see how you help defend him!
Lopez is a standard No. 5 position, tall and strong, with excellent interior offensive skills.
Jamison is a player at the third position, so he can barely play the fourth position.
Regardless of whether he plays the third or fourth position, Jamison relies on offense to make a living.
His defense has never been great.
Not to mention having Jamison guard the 5!
This is the biggest mismatch on the field!
Curry dribbled the ball to the left side of the 45-degree three-point line and handed the ball to Lopez in the low post.
Jamison defends from behind.
Lopez got the ball, looked at it, and started to hit Jamison with his back.
Jamison can't hold Lopez at all!
But the rest of the Cavaliers didn't dare come over to help defend.
Belinelli, Azubuike and Prince are all very reliable pitchers!
What's more, there is a super shooter on the court: Curry!
