"Tonight's whistle was really off. Rondo and Rose both went down. How long has it been since? The Lakers are not easy to play now."
"Yes, restrain your hands! This is the key to the impact of this partial whistle. Why do you say that? It's a very simple thing. Think about it, you will be fouled if you touch it even a little bit. How can you dare to do it easily?
? And on the highest level stage, once you have hesitation, it is fatal. One thing goes another, and now the Cavaliers are using the Lakers' problem card to make a big fuss. To be honest, I think this game is
It’s home court, but the league’s appearance is a bit ugly!”
"Let's see what the on-site broadcaster Director Zhang said? Director Zhang? Director Zhang?"
"The whistleblowing of these balls is not reasonable at all! The scale is different, which is uncomfortable. If you touch him, it is a foul, but if he touches you, it is not a foul. This advantage is too great. There are many balls, I can see clearly at the scene
It's just pulling hands and violating the cylinder, but tonight it was as if the Lakers players collectively lost the cylinder in the first quarter. Playing like this, they couldn't get in at all. They got Rondo and Rose into foul trouble.
, the Lakers' ability to provide the ball to the inside has also become worse. The Cavaliers directly interfered and cut off the passing route. The range of movements tonight was so large that Tang Qian of the Lakers could not easily get the ball. Plus Rose
Now I can't play, and I no longer have the offensive point to actively hold the ball. All that's left is... Oh, look, Covington actually committed three fouls??? This is a complete joke! This whistle tonight is really a little bit...
Too much favoritism!" Zhang Lili looked at the scene as if he was playing basketball, and was filled with indignation.
Lakers fans online also complained loudly. Of course, Cavaliers fans kept saying that the whistle was fair. Anyway, everything about No. 23 could be completely beautified. Tang Qian communicated with the referee. After all, this was too much, but the referee did not
The penalty scale was changed. One of Tang Qian's balls was obviously violated, but there was no whistle? Tang Qian roared at the referee, this is not a foul??? This must have been a technical foul before, but
Now he is the number one player in the league and a popular star, so even so, he was not given a technical foul. Why? It's just because the top players want to keep the strongest stars on both sides. Otherwise, what else can they do?
See, the big stage of the NBA needs outstanding players with big reputations.
The Cavaliers also know the routine very well, and they immediately counterattack wildly. Anyway, they have had this experience three times this year. This is the fourth time, and they know how to play. If you don't give fouls for some foul actions, then your opponent's hit rate will be higher.
It will inevitably be low, the turnover rate will inevitably increase, and then you only need to counterattack with all your strength. You can steadily widen the score difference. And now that Covington has also committed more fouls, no one in the Lakers can stop the Cavaliers' 23
No. The first line of defense is now useless for James who is in super state. In this way, even if Larry Brown wants to rely on quick retreat and give up the method of giving up offensive rebounds to increase the speed of defense,
He will also fall short because the first line of defense cannot stop the Cavaliers' No. 23.
James's shot was a throw. After the shot was fired, he was no longer so afraid of the Lakers' No. 29 inside deterrence ability. Besides, in the first quarter, they took advantage of the Lakers' various mistakes and pushed a lot of counterattacks.
James got 3 steals in the first quarter, which is a bit incredible. Lakers fans watching this game yelled and cursed online, but this cannot change the overall situation on the court. The Cavaliers' lead is getting bigger and bigger.
The Lakers' offense seemed to have lost power under the Cavaliers' defense. Except for Tang Qian's hard hitting, the rest of the scoring was terribly difficult. I don't know, I thought this was the Lakers playing the 2004 game.
The Pistons or the Celtics in the 2008-10 season. The Cavaliers...the team with the worst defensive efficiency in history this year. This is really unbelievable.
In the first quarter, with James' domineering dunk, the Lakers only scored 13 points, while the Cavaliers scored 33 points!
The Lakers' team's shooting percentage is only 20%, and the Cavaliers' over 60%!!! The Lakers' team's fouls are more than twice as many as the Cavaliers'! Mistakes and various interferences are also multiples of the Cavaliers'. If you play like this, you can still
I really thought that the Cavaliers were the team with a big 2-0 lead. James cheered at the scene, and the audience gathered in response. The commentator at Quicken Loans Arena also loudly followed the momentum, making everyone feel that the Cavaliers were playing tonight.
The team must win!
Live broadcast across the United States on ABC.
"The Cavaliers performed very well in this quarter. The Lakers' shooting percentage was too low, and their defense suddenly became tougher. The Lakers paid a heavy price for their carelessness and underestimation of the enemy."
"Come on, everyone knows why the Lakers were defeated in the first quarter tonight. The main point guard and the main outside ball handler only played for less than three minutes and then went down, which directly led to no one passing the ball from outside.
, no one scored with the ball on the outside. Then there is the main defensive front. This year’s winner of the first defense actually committed three fouls in less than five minutes. Is this a bit too much? If not, suddenly the main players suffered heavy losses and were caught off guard.
, how could it be like this? This kind of thing is not uncommon for the Cavaliers in this year's playoffs!"
"What you said is a bit..."
"I, Van Gundy, speak so directly. There is nothing to hide. Everyone knows that many of the balls are fouls, but there is no whistle at all. The Lakers seem to be in a normal situation, but compared to the other side, it is a big disadvantage.
.The current alliance is really looking ugly for certain interests."
Tang Qian was a little annoyed when he saw James' slightly proud look. As soon as the second quarter started, he continued to attack. When he got the ball, he turned around and attacked hard, and then completely destroyed the defense behind him. This made the Cavaliers' No. 23
Shouting loudly: What are you doing? Double-team him! Guard him!!! Make him unable to catch the ball!!!!!!
Now that we are ahead by so many points, we don’t have to be afraid of making mistakes!!!
After Rondo came up, his passing was much better, and Tang Qian was able to get the ball and score a lot. However, the Cavaliers were also scoring and hitting downwind balls. These guys were not bad. There was no pressure in my heart and I could shoot well.
They were all on target. On the contrary, the Lakers were a little restrained because of what happened in the first quarter and were afraid of fouling again. This time, James had a clear mind and changed people to play the Lakers' No. 1 Rondo.
Duo blocked another foul during a defense, and then committed 4 fouls! This meant that he basically had no chance to play until the fourth quarter!!! This made Rondo almost scream... Fortunately, he was directly hit from behind.
Stopped him, so that the Cleveland referee team did not give him a chance to give "zero tolerance".
James came back and forced a cut. This time Covington defended well, but James soon found a way to attack in a misplaced pick-and-roll. The Lakers now replaced Deron Williams and Code in order to send the ball to Tang Qian.
Long's current passing attack is scary when he has plenty of physical strength, but on the defensive end... he is really going to be blinded. First of all, due to injuries, his footwork and flexibility are far from being comparable to his peak years. James surpasses him, and he is as good as he was in his peak period.
It's like drinking water. In addition, the Cavaliers once again put on a five-shooter lineup, and Tang Qian was pulled out again, which allowed the Cavaliers' No. 23 to easily drive in and beat the defense of Deron, Beverley, or Kuzma.
. As long as Covington is replaced, he can easily score these goals with his state and physical conditions. Because these people are either too poor in physical condition, or their defensive ability is not up to standard. During this period, James
Anyway, it was Tang Qian who hit one, and he could basically return one. In this way, the Cavaliers, who had a big lead in the first quarter, didn't get much back at all. This is also their experience, as long as they lead by this much
, then you only need to attack each other, and you can win anyway even if you lose points in each quarter.
This advantage is really too great.
This made Zhang Lili very anxious at the scene and said: Now the Lakers are too far behind, so if they score against each other, it will be a waste of time! The score difference must be narrowed to have a chance. But now, what chance can we have?
What? The Lakers' defense is already in a mess. They can't guard James at all.
Yes, and after James felt better, he started to frequently use misplaced back shots to defeat the Lakers' defense. Deron and Beverley were simply bullied. The difference in tonnage and strength was too big, and this defense was really helpless.
At this time, Larry Brown made a move. He asked Tang Qian and Covington to double-team James. Anyway, Tang Qian was pulled out now, and it was difficult for the inside to get rebounds or block shots, so that might as well be
Let him take the initiative to double-team James!
This is a very good method!!! It is also a deviant approach that has never been used before!
As soon as this move came out, James immediately had a problem! Because Covington's defensive ability is now a front-line defense, and Tang Qian, it goes without saying. Unless you are a small player who can move laterally and change his center of gravity very quickly.
, otherwise a striker like James relies more on the outside to open the way with his body, and he can play a very good defensive effect. Besides, such a double-team is something that rarely happens in Tang Qian's life. After all, here
Before, he had never seen anyone who needed to be double-teamed for defense. At least in the interior he was guarding, there was absolutely no such situation. To give James this treatment tonight, he really thinks highly of him and deserves his super.
What a season treat.
When James encounters this kind of double-team, he can only pass the ball out. He can't break it because Tang Qian's body is so good that he can't fight against him. And he can't get rid of it directly with speed. Covington can't break it either.
It's hard for a defensive master to fight alone now, let alone hit him twice in one go! James passed the ball to his teammates. His teammates now only have Love to trust. Love beat Josh Smith hard.
There was some effect at first, but after switching to Yi Jianlian again, tonight... it had a miraculous effect! If Love was still the 26+13 before, Yi Jianlian really couldn't stop him at all! But now Love
He is no longer the same person he was back then. He has never really trusted his ball handling for so many years. If he suddenly wants to hit, if the opponent is aggressive, it will not be easy for him to hit it. Yi Jianlian is now 258 pounds, although it is not as good as gaining weight to 270+ pounds.
Love, even though he was going to die, he still resisted!!!
Yi Jianlian actually allowed Love to make 1 of 5 shots in this wave!!!!!!!!
This allowed the Lakers to quickly narrow the score difference. Covington received Rondo's sudden inside shot and hit a fixed-point three-pointer!
The Lakers quickly narrowed the score. At this time, the problem of the Cavaliers' lack of ball-holding points also emerged. There is no team in the Eastern Conference that can easily double-team James. With James' physical fitness, you want to double-team easily.
It's really not that easy to kill him. For example, if the Celtics use the inside to defend James, the rest will be misplaced continuously. This is a method, and it is effective. It almost destroyed the Cavaliers. However, the pace of the inside is still too slow. If James attacks hard, he can still do it.
After all, the big man can't maintain this kind of pace and lateral speed all the time. So the further he goes to the back, the less he can stop the Cavaliers' No. 23. But the Lakers are different. They have No. 29 Tang Qian, and they also have No. 29 Tang Qian.
Covington is a forward and a defender. The two of them jointly attack. No matter how strong James is, he can't easily get rid of him. James can only force shots or continue to trust his teammates to play.
Not giving it to Love? That would be better. Except for J.R. Smith, the other players have no ability to handle the ball and attack on their own.
They are all role players who have relied on James' system to survive until now.
Without James' system, it would be really difficult for them to fight on their own.
Seeing the difference in the score and getting closer step by step, James's eyes were a little anxious! Is he going to fall short again??? In this way, he really can't hold his head up!!!!!!!!!! James is forcing this ball
When he attacked the double-team defense, he was blocked by Tang Qian and Covington. Because he rushed too hard, his face directly touched Covington... Covington 4 times!!!
This... Damn it!!!!!!!!!!
Although this ball looks like James was slapped in the face, according to the rules, this is James violating the defender's cylinder, okay! This should be an offensive foul!!! Tang Qian was also angry, and immediately asked the referee continuously,
The referee was so anxious that he gave him a T! as a warning! Although he didn't dare to punish him directly, he gave Tang Qian a warning!
Stop challenging our patience!!!
But Tang Qian became even more angry. When he saw the technical foul was awarded, he also exploded. He yelled at the referee: "Go on! This is his problem. You can't even see it? Why are you the referee?"
?Did you buy your referee certificate? Ah??? Why do you still want to continue to give me T? I will give you a courage, do you dare now? If you dare to give penalties, I dare to go down!!!
I...I don't dare!!!! Otherwise I will be scolded to death by the joke president!!! But don't be complacent. The order from above tonight is to follow the Cavaliers and wear the Cavaliers jersey to enforce the law.
.So the referee simply stopped looking at Tang Qian and signaled the game to continue. At this time, in order to share the firepower with Tang Qian, Rose came up again and stood up!!!
Then he started scoring consecutively. It can be seen that he is in good condition!
Very good! With an outside ball-holding spot, my pressure will be less, so that way...
At this moment, when the score difference was narrowed again, something suddenly happened, and a scream shocked everyone.
