Chapter 1019 Be careful not to desert, okay? Oh~ hehe~
By the time the third quarter was almost over, the Lakers had already extended their lead to 11 points.
It seems that the team's overall condition has begun to recover, and they have begun to come out of the shadow of five consecutive losses.
This is a very good signal, otherwise Tang Qian alone would not be able to support the entire team.
James was furious when he saw this. He never expected that the Lakers could beat the Cavaliers like this without Bosh and the important No. 4 substitute player. How could this not make him angry?
If we lose this game, the outside world will definitely say it is a disaster! This is because the team just scored two consecutive three-pointers by J.R. Smith, the "mental knife", otherwise the current score difference would not be 11 points.
So simple.
But if you want to rely on the "nerve knife" to win, what is this if it's not a joke?
Don't look at the fact that he can shoot these few goals accurately, no matter what, he may have no one to defend him later and he will have to fight.
This is the so-called "nerve knife". They can create surprises, but it is not very reliable to rely on them.
I don’t know what happened to Love tonight. He became weaker and weaker as he played. This really made James angry when I saw him.
So he decided to do it himself.
There is no way, he can't take the lead, and because he fed the ball too much and attacked too little in that period, the entire offensive state has not improved. As a result, his shooting state is not as good as before.
It was such a good show.
This is the problem with intermittent shooters, and Pippen was the same back then, so they need to use their best attack method to bring out the shooting state. Otherwise, they can only rely on the weather. If they are lucky, the touch will be there from the beginning, but if they are not lucky,
Even if he puts it a few meters away, he will hit the ball frequently. Unfortunately, James was unlucky tonight and his shooting touch was not there.
That's why he was a little annoyed. If he had known better, he wouldn't have beaten Love so hard, but he would have hit him more and got into better shape.
Nowadays, shooting is no longer a feeling. If you want to score or win, you can only rely on your own breakthroughs to kill.
It was supposed to be an invincible breakthrough and killing ability in the league, but it happened that it was completely unable to be used against the Los Angeles Lakers.
This feeling is so annoying! That’s why I don’t like center forwards so much!

"James has to get the ball by himself. The Cavaliers are not playing well as a whole and they urgently need someone to step up and score."
"James' shooting didn't feel good tonight either. Several mid- and long-range shots were missed. I don't know how he would choose how to release the ball."
ESPN One Live Room.
"KING's ball is going to be powerful~ Statistics show that once KING turns on the explosive switch, he will be invincible in the league~"
"No one can compare with him except Jordan~"
T.N.T live broadcast room.
"Are we going to come face-to-face? I've been looking forward to this time. It's really boring to watch it back and forth! It almost makes me fall asleep!"
"But first, LeBron has to get past the Lakers' perimeter defender Jimmy Butler. He is good at limiting LeBron on the perimeter, and he has a lot of experience. Oh, look, he succeeded with this ball.
The interference has arrived, and LeBron’s shots have been greatly affected!”
Indeed, the current Lakers team is not the same as last year. Last year, single defense at the 3rd position almost gave away points. What about now? Jimmy Butler is a strong defensive player in the league. He was on the All-Defensive Team last year.
Looking at the league now, the defensive ability is at the top level among outsiders. James is not that easy to play.
In the playoffs the year before last, he was better at restricting James when he was still with the Bulls. James' shooting percentages in 5 games were 47.1%, 58.3%, 35.3%, 45%, and 35.7%. Overall, the average field goal percentage per game was 43.8.
%, of which the number below 36% was as many as 2 games. Compared with his own state during the Heat, the decline was simply appalling.
You have to know that in the 12-13 season, James' average field goal percentage per game in the regular season was as high as 56.5%! How much did he drop at once? 12.7%! According to a high probability calculation, if the field goal percentage dropped by more than 10%, for the main scorer
For his hands, even if he was defended, there is no argument for this. Of course, this is not the fault of Butler alone. The Bulls' defensive system also gave him a lot of blessing and bonus help.
In addition, James' offensive status was not up tonight, so he failed to hit the ball he hit Butler.
The Lakers counterattacked defensively and took a three-point shot from the outside. The position was good, but just a little bit off. The basketball bounced high under the basket, and then...a big yellow hand overwhelmed the opponent Mozgov,
He forcibly picked off the rebound. Then without hesitation, he directly lifted up from the basket and hit the basketball into the net.
The score difference widened to 13 points.
Damn it, I didn’t even hit a Butler? I don’t believe it!!!
James was also very angry on the next ball and pushed hard, but Butler has always been very tough on the defensive end and was not afraid of James' collision. Now, James's ball was moved to a very bad position again, causing
Several players from the Lakers team moved to help defend, and the double team approached.
But James also has a really wide vision. Before the Lakers formed a circle, he reacted quickly. With a flick of his right hand, he passed the basketball from the inside. It fell into the hands of Kyrie Irving of the Cavaliers. Irving made a three-pointer.
Jeremy Lin blocked the ball, but was blocked by his opponent. There was a "beep" sound, which seemed to be a defensive foul. And Irving, who was in the air, did not give up. He straightened his waist and shrunk, then barely maintained his balance and then put the ball in his hand again.
The basketball was thrown out with great force.
The target is of course the Lakers' net bag, swipe~, don't tell me, the basketball was actually shot into it by Irving like this.
However, Irving has indeed become a complete success in three-point shooting this season. For the first time in his career, he has exceeded 40% and reached 41% or above. This is not easy no matter how you look at it. Irving's key ball shooting is rarely soft.
ah.
Irving made the free throw steadily from the free throw line. After all, he is a player with a free throw shooting percentage of over 86%. It is really uncommon for him to miss a free throw. Besides, his heart has never been small.
ah.
3+1 was played, and the third quarter ended. The Cavaliers benefited from Irving's last-minute 3+1 to narrow the score difference to single digits. With a 9-point score difference, after a short break, the two sides would lead to a decisive victory.
festival competition.
James really has to thank Irving for this ball. His ball is actually a bit of a "pass the blame", but Irving is not Wade. His shooting ability is very strong, and his resistance to pressure and interference is also excellent. Therefore, this ball, James
I can't help but feel a little lucky.
He's with the Cavaliers now, not the Miami Heat.
Otherwise, Wade will not be able to catch his blame for the ball.
On the bench, few people in the Cavaliers were listening to head coach David Blatt, which made David Blatt feel very humiliated. What embarrassed him most was that assistant coach Tyronn Lue
When he spoke, he was able to get feedback from most members of the team. This made him feel more and more that he was a head coach in name only and that it was meaningless to be a head coach.
And in the end, it was James who made the summary. Whatever he said, Tyronn Lue followed suit, as if he was fawning over the king. Now, as long as you are not blind, you can feel that "Director Lu" is
The flattery was so loud.
James was very satisfied with the attitude of "Coach Lue", so he began to be more biased towards Tyronn Lue.
If this continues, it will be impossible for David Blatt to fulfill this contract. He will be dismissed at the end of this season at most. Even in this time and space, he may not be able to "live" until that time.
On the Lakers side, Tang Qian praised Jimmy Butler. He has always been like this. No matter who it is, he must stand up and admit his mistakes, including himself. The same applies to his outstanding performance. No matter who he is, he must stand up and admit his mistakes.
, praise according to the truth, absolutely not stingy.
Jimmy Butler glanced at the big Oriental man and thought: There are clear rewards and punishments, which is an advantage. What he did here is much better than that "rose with thorns" in Chicago.
It's normal for him to have resentment against Rose. Rose saw that he was about to grow into the boss of the team and immediately took various measures against him. There were overt and covert ones, making it difficult for people to guard against. This was just a little training that the Bulls deliberately cultivated last season.
It's just him, and he's so annoying to Rose. It's no wonder that the "war" between him and Butler in the original time and space was so vigorous within the Bulls.
Gasol couldn't help but complain.
After the start of the fourth quarter, James wanted to play for Irving again, but after Irving got into the paint, Tang Qian directly rewarded him with two big hits. This made Irving's 3+1 morale in the third quarter suddenly drop.
Go down.
The Cavaliers are in trouble again.
After waiting for 2 minutes, James finally couldn't bear it anymore. He threw away the hair tie on his head and started playing singles by himself.
Damn it, he ran over Butler with this ball. It was like some switch was turned on in his body, and he became much more energetic than before. James is much stronger without a hair tie, this Tang Qianyuan
Time and space knew it, but in this time and space, it was obvious that it needed to be even more exaggerated. He deceived everyone with a fake pass, and then hit a "LeBron James-style tomahawk" from the volley, and the Lakers' basket suddenly sobbing.
"Well done! This dunk is a relief! Now there are only 7 points left. Come on, chase the points. We will keep the victory in Cleveland tonight." The Cavaliers' home commentator said this.
The Lakers made several defensive fouls during this period, but I don’t know why. Tang Qian missed 2 free throws, Ariza also missed 2 free throws, and even Jeremy Lin missed 2 free throws.
.Hit 6 irons on the free throw line, which also gave the Cavaliers a chance to breathe a sigh of relief. Tang Qian was also depressed, but things had happened, and he couldn't change anything. He had to do a good job in defense in this round.
It's the top priority right now.
James "taking off the headband" is an obvious sign of improvement in status and should not be underestimated.
Butler was beaten by James with brute force again. His condition was not as good as the latter's, so he started to feel a little powerless.
This is normal. After all, James' abilities are there. If he really comes into his own, let alone the second-defense players, it's hard to say about the first-defense players. This is the energy of a historical super giant.
James took a step forward and headed straight for the Lakers' basket.
It's really a humanoid tank...but I just like to take pictures of people like this! I just like to take pictures of tanks!
Tang Qian watched James approaching quickly from the inside. After waiting for about half a second, he jumped up from the ground, and then stood like a big mountain between the latter and the Lakers' basket. James wanted to make a
He pulled the lever, but was ridiculed by Lakers No. 29: "You still do this with your body? Isn't this unnecessary and making it more difficult for yourself?"
"Stop talking nonsense! I want this ball!"
"I want it, you big fool, this is the Lakers' basket now. Have you forgotten what I told you last time?" Tang Qian said in mid-air: "I want to be in the Lakers' basket."
Before I score, have you asked me first?"
Without saying a word, James directly pulled the lever and shot. Under his body, any movement seemed to lack an elegant atmosphere. But even so, James' basic skills and finishing skills at the basket are actually extremely good.
It's strong, so the lack of elegance doesn't mean it doesn't have destructive power at the basket.
But the ball was still knocked away by Tang Qian with one palm.
The ball was caught by Love of the Cavaliers. Love took the shot. Tang Qian was about to turn around and block the shot, but he didn't know that someone got ahead of him. This person was Robert Covington. He reached out before Tang Qian.
Touched off Love's shot under the basket.
A block was recorded.
Tang Qian protected the defensive rebound, and then he found an opportunity on the offensive end. He directly smashed down and scored, creating a 2+1 opportunity again. Timofey Mozgov's head was full of wood.
Yes, he no longer knows how many free throws he was committed by his opponent tonight, but he is certain that his number of personal fouls has reached 5.
Last time, he was sent off due to his opponent's impact on the basket. Is history going to repeat itself tonight?
The Cavaliers attacked, and the whole team opened up for James. James dribbled the ball from the top of the arc and tried to beat Butler hard.
Butler was also a player in the Eastern Conference before, so he really played against James a lot. He has learned a lot about James' basic playing style, personality and habits before in the Bulls. So now it is not so easy for James to break through him.
And freehand brushwork requires a lot of effort and cost.
It took James a long time to get a breakthrough position. How could he let go of this opportunity? In terms of opportunities, he is No. 1 in NBA history. Unfortunately, this goal
Coming in, that's the first step.
Butler is not blocking it. His defense is indeed an iron wall. For example, this ball, he is chasing after it to cover James' ball. Now he can either pass the ball or continue to attack the basket.
basket.
James thought for a moment and made the final decision. He wanted to...
But before he finished thinking, he felt a big hand appear on the side of his face.
Then it directly suppressed the momentum of the Cavaliers' attack on the 23rd.
James wanted to use brute force to push away the opponent's hand, but the opponent's force was also very strong. James was in a hurry and could only suffer a small loss. In the end, he was sentenced to a second dribble penalty. The ball was easily transferred to the Lakers.
team's ball.
"KING~ This is no longer last season~ With my strength, I will definitely not be much less than you."
"If you want to eat me, you have to continue to improve your physical fitness."
"Well, by the way, practice your dribbling more at the same time. A second dribbling violation is not worthy of your ability, do you understand?"
"And I won't be able to refresh the data this way, right? So please be more careful in attacking and don't just wander off all the time, okay?"
PS: There will be an update tonight~ Surprise~ Wow hahaha~~~~~~Okay, go to sleep~Let’s make an appointment tomorrow~
