After the second quarter, there was only 11 points left. Although it looked like it was still behind, in fact, the situation had already turned a bit.
Why do you say that? It's very simple, because the Cavaliers have been scoring and haven't stopped. Looking at the shooting percentage, it has reached almost 50% in the second quarter. This is already a very good team's shooting percentage. It is equivalent to only missing shots.
The Lakers, even worse, only conceded one-third of their goals in the second quarter, with a shooting percentage of more than 70%! It was almost close to 80%! If they play like this, of course they will.
It seemed obvious that the Cavaliers made no mistakes and played normally, but the score difference was still getting closer and closer. The Lakers, No. 29, who was forced to leave the game after only scoring a few points in the first quarter, showed bravery in the second quarter and scored in one breath.
Scored 18 points. In the locker room, the Cavaliers still have to implement James' system, and James also wants to play faster!
He doesn't believe that the Lakers can compete with him in defensive counterattacks and transitions between offense and defense. This is absolutely impossible.
At this time, Cavaliers head coach David Brent proposed a plan to contain the inside, but was ignored by James and Tyronn Lue. Because defense is not the Cavaliers' strong point, it feels a bit thankless.
.Besides, if the Lakers No. 29 can be defended so easily, that's nonsense. Just continue to attack! Anyway, the Lakers don't dare to defend now, so this is a good opportunity.
At the beginning of the second half, the Cavaliers were a bit overwhelmed, and the Lakers... seemed a bit fierce.
Our inside players are all going crazy.
Thompson passed, played 29 seconds, committed 4 fouls, and continued to rest.
Mozgov went up and was beaten by consecutive breakthroughs. He became angry and grabbed him from behind. The result was a flagrant foul, which cost him a lot. He made two free throws and one throw. Tang Qian played too hard. As long as he got in, he would have to
Killing and wounding, in fact, for a person of this size, it is very difficult to hold him.
I wanted Love to hit one, but he was deducted 2 times. The other one was not dunked. The force was too great and was directly smashed away.
To be honest, the Cavaliers' insiders are trembling a little when they look at No. 29. Really... this guy really does not belong to this era. How can he resist this? There is a huge difference in tonnage and strength. If he goes there, he will be looking for abuse.
Yes. Do you Mozgov still have a temper? You still think that you are a descendant of a fighting nation, so you think you should give Tang Qian some color? That's okay.
It is necessary to have such people who are not afraid of death.
I saw Tang Qian starting to ask for the ball from the low post on the left, and then he was extremely brutal, pushing the descendant of the fighting nation behind him and walking in. This was really asking for the ball while pushing. After watching the video of O'Neal asking for the ball in the low post, you will know
You know what this concept is. Do you Mozgov think you are awesome because you are 216cm? You think you are Russian and you pretend to have a big nose? Let me tell you, it is people like you who are best suited to "kill the chicken to show the monkey"
ah.
Tell other people to block me or force me, then... the consequences will be even worse!!!
After Tang Qian got the ball, he turned around violently. The combination of inertia and footsteps became better and better. He pressed in and raised his hand to dunk! The whole action was done in one go! And he was very careful with this ball, pressing Moz
At the same time, Goff deliberately did not use force to push him away, just let him behind him, and then... he pulled out his hands and smashed hard!!!
Bang~~~
"It's incredible! It's incredible! Have you seen it? Tang Qian just rode Mozgov and dunked~ This is really incredible, incredible!!!" Zhang Weiping explained loudly in the live broadcast box,
Then when I was happy, the "reasonable quotation" came out again: "It still has to be given to Tang Qian. It has to be beaten like this!!!"
Although the Cavaliers are also scoring, there is another issue of efficiency. The center is not very comfortable inside and can always be stable at more than 50%, and even the super inside has no problem with 60%. This is definitely the outside.
Players can't do it. It's the same as James. Especially Tang Qian of the Lakers is not comparable to an ordinary star center at all. In this series, he is the truly invincible No. 5! God descends to earth! Who?
Can anyone stop???
These are basically based on the previously unsatisfactory interior defense, running inside the space is okay, and playing authentic low-post offense and defense, that is "showing up". The score difference is still narrowing, and now it is only 5 points. The Cavaliers
Team, are you anxious?
Do you want to change? Keep fighting, okay, let’s see who is afraid of whom.
James, let's see who scores harder tonight. How about that?
After James missed a ball, Tang Qian caused damage again, and Mozgov also did it 5 times. This is still taken care of. Otherwise, if it is calculated according to Harden's "body hair whistle", at least it will not work.
It must have been about ten times. Normally, it should have been punished. That is to say, the president added "referee bull" to the Cavaliers tonight, so they can barely support it until now.
Unfortunately, he only made 1 of 2 free throws, but only 4 points were left.
After Tang Qian turned his head and scored the second free throw, he looked at Cavaliers No. 23 and said something in his eyes:
If you fight like this, you will definitely lose.
Are you trying to compete with me? You made a mistake.
No matter how stable you are on the outside, can you still beat me?
Just wait to be overtaken by us.
The 20-point advantage in the first quarter almost disappeared not long after the start of the third quarter. To be honest, the Cavaliers players also felt a little anxious. However, there was nothing they could do.
It's obvious that the game is playing well, it's smooth, and there are no major problems. How can I fix it?
abc live broadcast.
"Too strong. No. 29's performance tonight was too strong. No, he should have been very strong throughout the series. I thought he was very strong before, but I didn't expect him to be this strong. If Yao had him back then,
With his strength, our Rockets can definitely win the championship. It’s too strong, and the Cavaliers’ inside line is useless under his attack.”
Mullin also said: "This guy is really lucky to be born in this era, and it is also unfortunate for other insiders in this era. When space insiders face him, they really have no power to fight back. They can only choose to be beaten or beaten.
It’s even better to blast these two. To be honest, if I had an insider like him as a teammate, I would definitely be the same..."
McGrady also laughed and said: "I will say that Yao and the person I strongly recommend are not wrong. He is the hope of the future of Eastern basketball and a nightmare for our NBA insiders."
Wow~ The Cavaliers paused. Either because they didn't play well, or because their opponents played better and scored more consistently.
James was speechless, wondering if the Lakers could still play well, and if they could give the others a try too. Just relying on No. 29 to play is too much for you. At this time, David.
Brent said again, how about we set up packs and restrictions? Don't just think about attacking with them? What do you think? LeBron?
What else can we do? This is the only way it can be now. If we don’t change, we will be surpassed later, okay?
And the look in his eyes made me feel very unhappy. I must lead the team to win tonight!
Only then could he be left speechless.
Lakers bench.
"Is the perm okay? Is there any physical problem?" Larry Brown asked.
"No problem, those insides are not enough to watch at all, and the Cavaliers chose to defend me alone, so they want me to blow up their basket. I want to see tonight whether they will double-team or not! Will they help defend!
"Tang Qian said: "If they are really bold, then I will break the single-game scoring record in the finals tonight to show them."
The NBA Finals scoring record is Elgin Baylor's 61 points, followed by Kobe Bryant's 60 points in a single game two years ago. These are also the only two players to score 60 points in a single game in the Finals. Follow what the Cavaliers do.
Going on, Larry Brown feels that the Lakers' No. 29 is not necessarily talking big. It is indeed possible.
It's so easy for him to play inside on the opposite side. Right now, the opponent has 4 and 5 kills. If there are no more insides later, do you want James to play inside? It's impossible, isn't it? Now James has surpassed
At the age of 30, he can no longer do his best on the defensive end like he did when he was in his 20s. After all, he has to "be both a father and a mother" on the offensive end. This is very tiring, isn't it?
As soon as they came up, the Cavaliers... failed to attack, and then the defensive end adopted a double-team. As soon as Tang Qian held the ball, the Cavaliers immediately adopted a double-team with the ball, but Tang Qian didn't know what he was thinking. These two people still
You have to fight hard! And you even scored!
After he landed, he made a classic move to show off his biceps to the Cavaliers. What he meant was, two people? Is it enough for two people to double-team me? Not enough. Do you know?
This guy is so fierce??? Is he really the center of this era?
terrible.
James also looked gloomy. He was only leading by 2 points now. After he broke through, he threw it out, caught the ball from the outside and shot, and hit a three-pointer! "Good job!" James also pointed after his teammate scored.
, expressing his affirmation and admiration. This is also one of the most typical playing methods of James' system. Now the whistle is not good for the Lakers, so the defense of James must be encircled and delayed. Otherwise, the state cannot be stopped and improved a lot.
The Cavaliers No. 23.
"One star in four"? Yes, then... let's have some fun. The game I laid out earlier should take effect now.
"The Lakers still look for the inside, and give it to the inside. Tang Qian holds the ball, and the opponent immediately comes to double-team. What will Tang Qian do? He makes a back-up, and now the defender is closer. What should we do next?
Will...oh, this ball is out. Direct opportunity from the outside, three-pointer, Ariza, take the shot! Yes!!!" Zhang Weiping shouted loudly in the live broadcast booth: "This ball did not waste Tang Qian's wonderful pass.
!Well played!”
It was still 2 points. Tang Qian looked at James and said, "You think you are the only one who can play? I've said it before, there is nothing difficult to learn. As long as I think about it, I can use it better than you every minute."
, you use it more than you, you know?" James gritted his teeth and snorted: "Really? Just a ball?"
The Cavaliers' offense was still James's breakthrough, and it was still a sudden score. Then a second pass was drawn from the outside. Irving took a step forward from the top of the arc and took a mid-range shot. Although it was not James' assist, it was him who initiated this second pass.
Transmission, the effect is obvious.
How about it? Dongfang is hot! James also looked at Tang Qian with the same look, expressing provocation.
Tang Qian smiled, then continued, and then entered the performance time of both sides. Really, both sides were performing "One Star in Four Stars", which made the ABC commentator couldn't help but say:
I didn’t expect No. 29 to be so bold and actually hit back at James with “One Star Four Shots”??? This is really not an Oriental character, is it?
Jeff, don’t you know this? Yao told me that once the Chinese compete for real, they will never lose. Do you still remember Yao’s “Meeting in Houston”? It’s a typical example. Do you think they are Chinese?
People are very reserved, but deep down, they are very strong and will not give in easily.
Tracy, what is this about refusing to admit defeat? If you fight like this, you are trying to defeat LeBron's army. This is to use what LeBron is best at to defeat him. If you win, this series will be a big win for you.
Both LeBron and the Cavaliers will be a disaster. In the next game, there is really no hope. G4 is likely to collapse in one blow.
Gentlemen, let me interrupt. I am afraid you have forgotten that when the Lakers played in G3 of the Western Conference Finals, they also used the same method to kill the Warriors with a confrontational offense. Although tonight is a little different, the competition is "
"A star shoots out in all directions", but in essence, it is still said in the Chinese saying? Oh, by the way, give back to the other person in return. This is a very popular saying in China.
Zhang Weiping also shouted in the commentary box: Tang Qian's handling method was too tough. He competed with the Warriors for three points, and competed with James of the Cavaliers for "one star and four shots." Oh my god, killing people can only kill people.
That’s it. It’s awesome, awesome, really awesome. This ball is so interesting.
When James saw that the Lakers were really running "one star, four shots", he was a little confused, because he really didn't expect that No. 29 could achieve this level. Competing with himself to "one star, four shots"?
??It’s evenly divided???How is this possible? Isn’t this a dream????
James wanted to reach out and pinch himself, but at this moment, thanks to James' blessing, Tang Qian's assist crystal brick increased to over seven and a half. It was a step up. To say that his previous assist level was the league's
The inside is top-notch, so now, his passing and assisting level has risen to a level that surpasses that of the league's inside. Even Duncan Garnett, the famous big man who is famous for his passing ability, is now a head shorter than him. Only the small
Only a taller pseudo-insider can reach this level.
And he also has unparalleled offensive ability. When added together, the power is more than one plus one equals two? Don't forget that the gods descended to earth, but regardless of the improvement in assists and coordination, this improvement is a real improvement. It also makes it more satisfying.
He became more comfortable breaking out of double teams inside.
Just hit it yourself, then attract the defense and then pass the ball. In fact, this "one star and four shots" is not that difficult to operate.
This is easy to say, but how many people can do it? Just for this "star" to be basically invincible, this condition is very difficult, not to mention that the person who can achieve it must have extremely strong passing skills.
The ability to organize and support is less and less. Added together, it means almost none. It is like the Zen Master's "triangle offense". The last attack is given to the star in singles. Do you also learn from it?
Just copy it if you can, right?
At the scene at Quicken Loans Field, their commentator now doesn’t know how to explain:
With this goal, the Lakers scored another three-pointer. Go in, go in??? Both sides have switched to shooter lineups, but our Cavaliers were overtaken by our opponents? This...
He didn't know what to say appropriately.
It's hard to accept, because up to now, the Cavaliers are actually at a disadvantage despite the fact that they have been competing against each other with one star and one star.
The Lakers overtook the past.
Tang Qian walked past James, gestured to the number 2 and said:
I'm sorry, king, now we are in the lead.
It seems like I won the one-star-four-shot battle.
When James saw this, the veins on his forehead were about to pop out.
