Chapter 713 The Invincible Division

Chapter 713 The Invincible Division
Compared with the media hype before the finals and the great expectations of the fans, the game process was so uneventful.

In the first quarter, Director Lu still adhered to the guiding spirit of "the game can be lost, but Curry must die" to stick to the three-point line. As long as Curry picks and rolls or runs without the ball to cover, he will attack or switch defenses, letting Lenner german singles
Unlike last season's finals, Director Lu did not dare to continue shorting Leonard. He performed so well this season and directly stepped into the ranks of superstars.

So the Cavaliers don't flank Curry every defensive round, but let Love and Tristan Thompson switch defenses, and only when they have to, they will flank.

If it is possible, Director Lu would like to pinch the hole every round, but in the Warriors starting lineup, 4 space points + 1 end point, everyone has an offensive threat, and the four major stars have even averaged 20+ points per game. A scorer with fierce offensive firepower

Director Lu can only "reluctantly" defend Curry alone, face-to-face, facing Klay, Leonard, and Antetokounmpo also focus on single defense, and rack their brains to arrange rotations to prevent the main players from exhausting too much energy and unable to play. The audience responded to the Warriors' offensive.

Zhang Yu didn't have to think about it so much. He sat firmly on the Diaoyutai, followed the steps, and replaced people at the right time, and he would naturally lead.

This is the normal state of the Warriors this season. In the past, Zhang Yu needed to use timely on-the-spot adjustments to create an advantage, arrange for Butler and Clay to travel off-peak, and use various methods to gain an advantage in the contest with the Big Three.

But now, he doesn't have to do anything. The Warriors can solve the problem by relying on the strong personal strength of the four major stars.

Whenever Director Lu saw the leisurely Zhang Yu, and thought that he had tried his best, but still couldn't catch up with the score, he was so angry that he was about to have a heart attack.

He couldn't understand at all, why is there a team like the Warriors in the world?Will there be such a perverted lineup?

The four major players of the Warriors are in a balanced position, and their technical characteristics are compatible with each other. They can all play off the ball, with the ball, and can pass the ball. Except for Curry, they are all at the defensive level. They are not very old, and they are all at their peak. Expect.

It's just that there are too many stars. After all, the Big Three teams have appeared so many times, and it is not unacceptable to have another Big Four team.

But while the Warriors have no solution to the main lineup, the depth of the lineup is also the first in the league.

The best defensive player and the best second team Green is the Warriors' backup power forward; the talented champion Wiggins can only get more than 20 minutes of playing time per game; Players who can play as starters can only play as substitutes for the Warriors; the scarce 3D striker Covington is even only the third choice at the third position.

This can't even be called a super team, it has to be described as cosmic courage!

However, the real "cosmic brave" is not so strong.

Now Curry and Clay are stronger than before, Durant is slightly better offensively, Leonard is better defensively, the two are evenly matched, Antetokounmpo is far stronger than Green, and the depth of the lineup is far better than Cosmic Brave. .

This is a truly invincible division.

In the original G1 of the finals, the Cavaliers were evenly matched with the Warriors in the first quarter. The score was once stalemate at 4:3 for a long time. After Green fouled off with 4 and a half points, the Cavaliers once had the advantage.

It wasn't until the second half of the first quarter that Durant and Curry both stood up. Durant scored 10 points on 5 of 4 in a single quarter, and Curry made two three-pointers. The Warriors took the lead with 35:30.

The Cosmos Warriors, the starting lineup is still not good enough, the two insiders can neither open up the space, nor finish at the basket, which is too slow to attack. As long as the Warriors don't feel good, the opponent can still play a fight.

But now, Curry, Leonard, and Antetokounmpo repeatedly attacked the Cavaliers' inside line, and suppressed the Cavaliers in the strongest way when they failed to find a three-pointer.

Zhang Yu's tactics are very simple. Curry, Leonard, Antetokounmpo, and Clay line up in order to launch an attack with the ball according to the order.

As long as Curry is not flanked, he will play the inside line of the big military training Cavaliers.

Love is still his cash machine, and Tristan Thompson, who claims to be able to switch defenses on the perimeter, is also at a loss and clumsy in front of him.

Followed by Leonard, he does not pursue misplacement. James' defense has degraded too much, and he has to take care of the defense. It is not difficult for Leonard to fight him one-on-one.

Antetokounmpo and Clay have the least possession of the ball, but as long as there is a one-on-one opportunity for misplacement, they will not let it go.

Antetokounmpo has a lot of shortcomings, such as no shooting, rough skills, etc., but the Warriors' extreme space perfectly conceals his shortcomings.

He doesn't need to face the strongest defense of the Cavaliers. He can often get a wide starting space, take a big step, rush into the inside line, and get two points.

This is the most suitable style of play for Antetokounmpo. His strengths and weaknesses are too prominent. In terms of strength alone, he can be the boss of a team.

But without the disadvantage of shooting, it is too difficult for him to develop offense. Every ball has to go to the basket hard, which consumes a lot of energy and is easily interfered by defense.

And Antetokounmpo's free throws are inaccurate. Even if he gets a foul, there is no guarantee that he will be able to score. It is not really unsolvable.

But when he was playing in the Warriors, he didn't have to think about these issues at all. He only needed to cover the splash, and then take the ball and hit the basket hard.

The opponent's defense will naturally be attracted by Curry, Clay, and Leonard. The penalty area is as empty as half of the sea, allowing him to gallop freely.

Antetokounmpo doesn't have to take on the tough tasks that only the boss of the team needs to undertake at critical moments. This is the responsibility of Curry and Leonard, and even Clay's pick for key shots is above him.

He is a tough and pure battering ram, under the cover of Brother Tsunami behind him, he can destroy the city and pull out the stronghold, and no one can stop him.

Clay has the lowest sense of presence. He still mainly runs without the ball and opens up space. When the Cavaliers are strictly guarding against three-pointers, he doesn’t get many opportunities. However, in the few rounds of low backs against Irving, there are built tree.

This is enough, the four major stars are all on the field, the offensive firepower is overflowing, and Olynyk can make a three-pointer even if he is emptied.

After the first quarter, the Warriors led the Cavaliers by 43 points at 30:13, establishing a huge lead.

The Cavaliers can score 30 points, and the offense is actually not bad.

Director Lu's starting lineup is Irving, Smith, James, Love, Tristan Thompson, 2 ball-holding points + 2 shooters + 1 finisher, Irving can also shoot three-pointers, James has a strong impact, although not 4 The ultimate offensive configuration of modern basketball with space point + 1 end point is not far behind.

In the face of this configuration, even the Warriors are not very easy to defend.

Zhang Yu's defensive strategy is to single-handedly defend James + Irving, cut off the passing route between them and teammates, shrink the frame, strengthen rotation, and strictly guard the basket and three-pointers.

This is similar to the defense directed by Lu. They all strictly guard against three-pointers and let the opponent's stars play singles.

But the difference is that none of the Cavaliers' Big Three has Curry's strong three-point threat. James and Tristan Thompson can be regarded as dragging space. The Warriors can shrink the frame appropriately, and the defense in the penalty area is better than the Cavaliers.

In addition, the Warriors completely cut off the passing route between James and his teammates. James sent 3 turnovers in the first quarter, 4 turnovers in the second quarter, and 7 turnovers in the first half.

James' passing vision and technique are at the top of the league, but in front of the abnormal striker group composed of Warriors Antetokounmpo, Leonard, Green, Wiggins, and Covington, every pass risked a huge risk. Risk, the Warriors always have a few long arms horizontally inside, ready to intercept James' pass at any time.

When James plays with the main lineup, he needs to face the blocking of Leonard and Antetokounmpo.

During the transition period of the second quarter, Director Lu asked James to lead the rotation lineup, Zhang Yu directly sent Green to play the center forward, and Wiggins and Covington matched the small lineup of strikers, trying to completely cut off James' passing route
Without Looney, the Warriors will have certain problems in rebound protection and rim protection, but Zhang Yu can allow James to defend the rim heavily today, but he will never allow him to break through and then distribute the ball to teammates who are open on the outside three-point line .

Zhang Yu never believed that James could kill the Warriors by scoring alone.

In the second quarter, every time James broke through to find a pass from a weak-side corner teammate, he was intercepted by the Warriors.

The Cavaliers' overall offense driven by James' breakthrough also collapsed, leaving only the individual singles of James and Irving.

The two have to attack with the ball every round, but on the opposite side, it is Curry, Leonard, Antetokounmpo, and Clay who take turns to play.

After the first half, the Warriors led by 79 points 61:18, further expanding their lead.

In the third quarter, the Warriors launched a general offensive.

Zhang Yu started Green in the second half, and the dead five, who rarely appeared this season, returned to the arena.

On the basis of unlimited defensive changes in the first half, the Warriors increased the flanking attack on the ball holder, and used quick rotations to make up for the gaps that appeared.

However, James and Irving were overloaded in the first half, consumed too much energy, and their offensive efficiency was reduced in the second half. They missed several offenses and were seized by the Warriors to counterattack. The point difference was pulled to more than 20 points in an instant.

Director Lu called timeouts many times, trying to interrupt the Warriors' momentum.

But after returning from the timeout, Curry made a small step-back three-pointer, rekindling the warm atmosphere at the Chase Center.

The home fans were completely crazy, and the morale of the Warriors team was high. Everyone looked like they wanted to eat people, and they even rushed to grab rebounds, completely overwhelming the Cavaliers in terms of momentum.

The Cavaliers players are timid, only James and Irving can score stably, and everyone else is dumb.

The Warriors blossomed more and counterattacked again and again, like a gust of wind and rain, beating the Cavaliers dumbfounded.

After the third quarter, the Warriors led the Cavaliers by 114 points 90:24, completely establishing the victory.
