Chapter 404 Differences in "Strongest Tactics"
Chapter 404 Differences in "Strongest Tactics" (Chapter [-])
On May 5th, the divisional finals of the 30-15 season all came to an end, and the duel between Li Ze and LeBron James was staged again.
But this time the script is completely different, the fans are all interested, and the local fans in Cleveland are even full of expectations!
Can't beat the Clippers, who can't beat the Big Three, and can't handle the single-core Clippers?
The two teams played against each other with 1 win and 1 loss in the regular season this season, but after Tyronn Lue took office, the Cavaliers easily won the regular season. Therefore, most critics believe that the Cavaliers have a great advantage.
The 73-win Warriors lost, and Amerika's sports media ridiculed the Warriors as the Eagles of the Western Conference.
In the 14-15 season, the Eagles had a record of 60 wins. In the Eastern Conference finals, they met the Cavaliers led by LeBron James. They had no resistance and were swept out 4:0.
In the 15-16 season, the Eagles once again scored 48 wins, and encountered the Cavaliers in the Eastern Conference semifinals, and the result was a 4:0 sweep.
The Eagles also have many players selected as All-Stars in the Eastern Conference. This situation happens to be very similar to that of the Warriors. Everyone is a soldier, but in the playoffs it just won’t work.
The reason is also very simple. Most of America's football critics concluded that she lacks talent!
An excellent system can allow a team to achieve an excellent record in the regular season, but in the playoffs, after repeated matches and the routines are figured out, most of them are fighting for talent.
With the rise of Li Ze, the good days of the system team are over. The reason why Popovich, a bad old man, doesn't like Li Ze's team is because superstars have destroyed the so-called basketball system.
Whether it's the Spurs' internal and external team basketball, or the Warriors' pursuit of fast-paced pass and cut offense, it's useless to meet Li Ze's team.
Coach De Nagro's tactics are also simple. To catch the opponent's weakness, if you are fast, I will be slow, and if you are slow, I will be faster.
The simple and crude tactics of the "V"-shaped offense made the Clippers play well because Li Ze, who had the ball in his hand, was too strong.
TNT does not have the rights to broadcast the finals, so at this time of the year, you can only enjoy your mouth.
Although the story of LeBron James winning the championship this year has been full, no one wants to let go of the hot spot of Li Ze:
"In the Western Conference finals, he averaged 29.0 shots per game, hit 20.2 goals, and his shooting percentage was as high as 69.5%;"
"Average 7.3 shots per game from outside the three-point line, hit 3.8 goals, make 52.1% of three-pointers, average 8.3 free throws per game, and make 96.1% of free throws!"
“西部决赛场均出场42分钟,场均52.3分11.6篮板8.3助攻1.8抢断1.0盖帽1.7失误,直到现在,我仍不敢相信我们竟然见证了这样的表现!”
After the host Ernie Johnson introduced Li Ze's data, the three people on the side were a little silent.
I don’t blame the Warriors for losing, I can only say that Li Ze is really not human
The true shooting percentage (TS%) has come to an exaggerated 80.1%. The outside players have played a more stable performance than the inside players. God is playing with the No. 10 jersey?
Not only simple data such as true hit rate and effective hit rate, but even BMP (basic positive and negative values) have followed suit.
Li Ze exploded BMP in the regular season. In the previous seasons, LeBron James could still find comfort in this high-level data, but with the birth of 40+ triple-doubles in the regular season, the high-level data exploded.
BMP16.96, the first in Li Ze history, No.2 LeBron James BMP12.99, No.3 Michael Jordan BMP12.56.
As for outdated high-level data like Per (efficiency value), no one cares about it anymore. Many football critics don’t want to announce Li Ze’s high-level data in the playoffs, which is a bit higher than the regular season.
This kind of crushed data made the sports media think that the current high-level data has a bug, and they are currently busy correcting it.
Many fans of Amelia have already rated Li Ze as the GOAT of the data field. As long as the number of champions is equal, the "God Slaying Movement" will officially begin.
In the Celestial Dynasty on the other side of the ocean, Danzi has been compared with Li Ze every day recently, and the two sides are currently winning and losing.
But if you can't stand it, most fans' buttocks are crooked. Michael Jordan has lost his No.1 position in history.
In the Celestial Dynasty, Kobe was reduced to an inefficient blacksmith, Curry became a system pitcher, LeBron James Babu Lang, Chris Paul and Blake Griffin purely hugged their thighs, and other stars in the league were all chickens tile dog.
That’s why Durant and Guiguifeng have good reviews. After all, everyone is still looking forward to Durant assisting Li Zena during the offseason, so you can’t blackmail your teammates.
In the studio, Kenny Smith seemed to recall the recent trends in the media, looked at Li Ze's data, and finally said in a playful tone:
"The Warriors with 73 wins can only win 2 games. I don't think the Cavaliers will be better than the Warriors."
"Leonard in the Western Conference semifinals and Iguodala in the Western Conference finals could not limit Kayce, and the Cavaliers did not have very good perimeter defensive resources."
"If you want to win a championship, you have to ask Kayce first."
After Charles Barkley poured milk on the Warriors, he immediately changed his tone and stood firmly on the side of talented basketball:
"The Warriors don't have enough talent, just like the 60-win Hawks did, and in the playoffs, the shortcomings were magnified."
"The Cavaliers are completely different. Kyrie Irving has unparalleled offensive talent, and he can help the team get points steadily."
"Kevin Love can protect the rebound and provide outside firepower. As long as LeBron James activates his teammates, the Cavaliers can easily win."
Staring and talking nonsense, O'Neill automatically ignored the logic of his old partner and sided with the Cavaliers:
"The Cavaliers have truly talented players. Unlike Curry, Irving does not rely on three-pointers and has more offensive methods."
"Basketball is for 5 people, Irving will be a powerful helper for James, and the Clippers have not met a real opponent in this year's playoffs."
The host Ernie Johnson watched the two talking nonsense, and immediately laughed and joked:
"Aren't the 67-win Spurs and the 73-win Warriors a real rival? Don't forget, the Warriors also eliminated the Thunder, which is the Thunder with Durant and Westbrook!"
O'Neill laughed under his breath, and then retorted with reason:
"We all know how the Warriors got their 73-point shots. Without those illegal screens, they wouldn't be able to win [-] games."
"And these tricks don't work in the playoffs. The Spurs are too old and the defense can't keep up. Kayce has proven it. Looking at his numbers, this is probably the easiest series he has ever experienced in his career. gone."
"."
The TNT program also represents the views of the mainstream media. Li Ze has won too much. The league does not want the Clippers to dominate. After all, the Clippers have to strengthen during the offseason.
The Cavaliers have the highest salary this season, and with the blessing of hometown basketball Buff, LeBron James regained the protagonist script. After many years of failure, he returned to his hometown to win the championship, which is more in line with the story of competitive sports.
The finals will officially start on June 6. The two teams still have more than 2 days of preparation time. The Clippers hold the home court advantage and can wait for the arrival of the Cavaliers.
The coaching staff just gave the players a day off. So far in the playoffs, the Clippers have already shown their cards tactically. As for how to make a targeted defense against the Cavaliers, head coach De Nagro also has some ideas.
In short, as long as Li Ze is in a stable state, everything is possible.
During the playoffs, during a rare holiday, Li Ze happened to accompany Lily Collins who came back from England.
Phil Collins has had some physical problems recently. In the past six months, the famous ladies of A have been by his father's side.
Lily Collins’ mansion in Beverly Hills can’t be lived in for a few months a year. In recent years, Li Ze has lived here more times than A celebrity
Lily Collins, who didn't wake up until noon, came to the dining room, watched Li Ze eating lunch slowly, and couldn't help complaining:
"Phil told me to stay away from you, he has already seen that you are not a good person!"
Li Ze was almost choked, it was his fault, he learned how to play the drums, and made a mess of his teacher's daughter, when he saw the messy-haired lady A sitting across from him, he hurriedly changed the subject:
"How is his health? I said long ago that he shouldn't retire prematurely. Phil must not be used to the current life."
After taking a look at Li Ze, Lily Collins really likes her current life, with more and more dollars, from an actor to a business owner, and she started to enjoy life ahead of schedule:
"He is 65 years old. There is a reason why the British media said after he retired that he became an old man with a weird temper. However, it is not a physical problem, but that he needs the company of his family when he is old."
Li Ze had a strange expression on his face. If he remembered correctly, Phil had changed girlfriends a few years ago. The old man is old-hearted, so how could he be lonely?
Seeing that Li Ze didn't speak, Lily Collins immediately guessed what the scumbag was thinking.
It's just that she doesn't know how to criticize the elders' emotional life. After all, her own father, with a daughter like her, is already rare:
"Is Tate's health okay? You should pay more attention to the children."
When mentioning his precious son, Li Ze felt a little helpless, the little one was really cute, but he grew up too fast, he didn't look like a child under one year old at all.
Shakira was terrified. Although the doctor repeatedly told her that the child was extremely healthy, the blond sister was still very nervous. Recently, she went to New York for a checkup.
It is most likely related to energy drinks. Li Ze feels that his baby's physical fitness must have been optimized, but he can't explain this. He can only wait for Annie to give birth to see the situation.
"Believe in science, I found the best doctor in Los Angeles!"
Hearing Li Ze's words, he nodded to the famous lady A, but he was still a little annoyed at the scumbag who was working hard:
"If I have a child in the future, you have to stay by my side!"
Li Ze could only nod his head in response. According to the plan, the beautiful girls will not consider having children until they are around 30 years old. Considering the difficult process of human creation, no one has taken protective measures in recent years.
As he earned more and more dollars, he continued to invest in the Dutton family, and Li Ze also had his own share of the land. The chicks thought about it, and it would definitely not be a loss to have a child.
Lily-Collins is very satisfied with Li Ze's attitude. Everyone is a community of interests. Coupled with the yearning for a beautiful body, the current life is particularly comfortable:
"If you invest in "Breaking the Rules" this year, if you are nominated for the Golden Globe Award, remember to accompany me to the scene. Don't say you don't have time, and if you play one less game, it won't affect the team."
Investing in movies doesn't make any money at all right now, but this is a good opportunity to expand your network. This chick is very good at finding opportunities to act like a baby, so she suddenly paid in advance for next year:
"No problem, if you have any other requirements, just say it in one breath!"
When Li Ze saw the coquettish face of celebrity A, he knew that the other party must have something else.
"By the way, help me prepare two tickets to the finals. Phil also wants to come and see you. Remember not to lose. Older fans can't afford to lose."
Lily Collins leaned on her chin and burst into laughter when she saw Li Ze's frowning face. It was time for her father to help her vent her anger!
This year’s Finals received a lot more attention than last year. In the 14-15 season, the 73-win Clippers were too dominant, and the Cavaliers were troubled by injuries. The finals lost suspense and the ratings were affected.
President Adam Silva was naturally dissatisfied with last year's finals. Fortunately, Li Ze's three consecutive championships were also a hot topic. The birth of the dynasty team did not completely collapse the heat of the finals.
This year, the NBA has learned a lesson. Before the finals, it first told a historical story of Cleveland sports.
Then he portrayed LeBron James as an urban hero who turned his prodigal son back and fought for his hometown basketball!
Li Ze's 40+ triple-doubles in the regular season and 50+ quasi-triple-doubles in the Western Conference Finals have their own traffic. Driven by the league, the popularity exploded.
One side is relying on statistics and personal strength, and the other is an urban hero who has failed for many years and is making a comeback. Just like this, Amica fans can't wait to play the finals tomorrow.
Head coach De Nagro led the coaching staff to prepare for the game step by step. The coaching staff knew the information about the Cavaliers:
During the regular season, the Cavaliers averaged 104.3 points per game, ranking 8th in the league, scoring 110.95 points per 4 rounds, second only to the Thunder and ranking [-]th in the league.
The Cavaliers allowed opponents to score 98.3 points in the regular season. On the defensive end, the opposing team is indeed a better team.
After Tristan Thompson mentioned starting, he brought great changes to the Cavaliers' defense.
Tyronn Lue still has two brushes. After the All-Star Game, the team's status has improved, and it is a different team from David Blatt's time.
The playing styles of the two teams are somewhat similar, both relying heavily on the performance of core players, the most prominent being superstar basketball.
The assistant coach watched many Cavaliers game videos and found that the opponent's performance in the playoffs was somewhat different from the regular season.
Up to now, the three-pointer is more accurate. So far, the playoffs have shot 39.1% from outside the three-point line.
"Vinny, are we going to put Kayce on James? The team's current defensive resources, maybe it's hard for us to limit Kyrie Irving's scoring."
Coach De Nagro is not worried about the team's offense, because with Li Ze, this is the basic set, but how to adjust the defensive end, he just has some small ideas:
"According to the plan, the connection between James and his teammates is still cut off. As for the defensive matchup, we can make adjustments at halftime."
The coaching staff is still a little worried about the team's defense. Unlike the Warriors, the Cavaliers have two assaulters. In Tyronn Lue's tactical system, James and Irving will inevitably attack the Clippers' inside.
Pick-and-roll defense has always been Jokic's weakness, and Harris' basket protection also has problems. The Clippers will lose a lot of points in this regard every game.
Coach De Nagro is of course aware of the team's defense, but there is only one Li Ze in the league, and the disadvantages inside can only be made up by the outside.
On June 6, after the crazy preheating of the NBA and ESPN, the atmosphere of the finals became more and more heated.
Many enthusiastic Cleveland fans even bought away tickets to travel with the team!
Every year in the finals, the league conducts short interviews with each player. In addition to warming up, these short videos are also convenient for fans to better understand the stars.
This year, LeBron James, who got the lead script, frequently mentioned hometown basketball in interviews.
The Chosen One has indeed made a lot of contributions to the Akron community, and as an opinion leader, he also pulled votes for the Donkey Party by the way.
Such a move has naturally won the appreciation of many fans. Low-key, focused, speaking for his hometown and the black community, James has finally become a high-quality idol in the hearts of fans.
"I will bring back a championship for Cleveland, and I will break the curse of Cleveland sports without a championship for 52 years. In the finals, I will do my best!"
In the interview, LeBron James expressed his sentiments, which made Cleveland fans extremely excited. He has also been extremely active on social media these days:
"Knight Championship!"
In contrast, Li Ze, who has won three consecutive championships and won the MVP this year, does not have so many stories. If it is necessary to bring up the topic, personal six consecutive championships is a great achievement.
But it's a pity that Amerika's media will not promote Li Ze as a big winner, and the majority of Lezi fans also hope that Li Ze will lose.
After all, they can't even beat Li Ze's fans in a big fight now, so if there is another championship, it will be impossible to go to heaven?
The Cavaliers who came to Los Angeles also appeared to be very low-key. Tyronn Lue even asked the players not to meet with the Clippers players in private.
In the finals, Tyronn Lue hopes that the team can show a tough temperament, and "brother basketball" has to stand aside at this time!
With the release of the short interview on the evening of the 1st, coupled with the highlights of the playoffs of the two teams, the atmosphere reached its climax.
The finals G1 officially started at 6:2 on June 21nd. Li Ze has been training steadily these days. He is considered a veteran of the finals, so naturally he will not feel nervous.
However, the Clippers have a lot of new players this season. Everyone is very excited to experience such a big scene for the first time.
This is the finals. The ABC channel broadcasts it live across the United States, and more than ten million people watch it. If you can show your face, your career can be called a success.
On the evening of the 2nd, when Li Ze appeared in the Staples Arena in a dark blue formal suit, the sports reporters who had been waiting for a long time in the parking lot began to follow suit.
Although the direction of the wind has changed, many critics have begun to favor James' hometown basketball, but Li Ze's data has also made these sports media unable to stop.
Even if it is a loss, everyone wants to see what kind of outrageous performance Li Ze can play.
A large number of media surrounded Li Ze, and reporters from Yahoo Sports jumped up and down and shouted questions:
"Kayce, what kind of stats will you put up tonight, and will you still get a 50+ triple-double?"
Li Ze took off his sunglasses, walked towards the player tunnel, and replied confidently:
"I'll get the win, that's all!"
"."
As the game was about to start, the Staples Arena was packed, and Clippers fans in red cheering T-shirts began to twist their bodies to the live music.
The live broadcast of "Shots" is Li Ze's single that has just been released, and Magnum's second studio album is currently selling well.
The joyful atmosphere didn't cool down until the lights went out, and the DJ introduced the visiting team to play. LeBron James came on the stage, and the Staples Center erupted with huge boos immediately.
Years of failures have made LeBron James more calm, and the Chosen One has become low-key and introverted. Such changes have also ushered in word-of-mouth gains, and Zhan Chui has also made a comeback!
The Clippers players came on stage, and the cheers continued to ring out. When Li Ze was introduced on the stage, the DJ on the scene even raised the volume:
"Let's welcome 5-time MVP, 5-time championship winner, NBA superstar, Number 10 from UCLA, Kayce——Li!"
Li Ze trotted all the way with a smile on his face and gave his teammates high fives. LeBron James twitched his lips when he heard about the previous achievements. He won all the championships.
Li Ze's fans started shouting crazily, and the atmosphere reached a climax!
In the commentary seat of ESPN, the commentator Mike Brin was in a good mood. This year there will definitely not be a crushing game. The Cavaliers are well-manned, and he can't wait:
"As expected, Tyronn Lue did not make a change tonight."
"The Cavaliers start with Kyrie Irving and JR Smith in the backcourt, LeBron James and Kevin Love up front, and Tristan Thompson at center."
Jeff Van Gundy is very optimistic about the Cavaliers. Before the game started, he blew a wave:
"From the perspective of lineup talent, the Cavaliers who have not been troubled by injuries have a huge advantage. The more mature LeBron James will not miss such an opportunity!"
Mark Jackson noted the change in the Clippers' starting lineup:
"PJ-Tucker started tonight, so Ingles played at the 2 position. Maybe Kayce will be responsible for marking Kyrie Irving tonight."
"Of course I'm more looking forward to seeing the matchup between him and LeBron James."
The two sides had a final warm-up, and Li Ze greeted Love by the way:
"Good luck, Bro! I'm going to be running the pick-and-roll at the 4 to start the night."
When Le Fu heard Li Ze's words, he immediately scolded with a smile:
"This is the first finals in my career, you guys are too ruthless!"
In the brother basketball version, most players are in the state of hello, me, hello, everyone. Although LeBron James was in a bad mood, he didn't say anything when he looked at Love in the end.
He thought that Owen would warmly greet Li Ze when he met Li Ze, but he didn't expect Owen to be very focused tonight. James is very satisfied with this!
"Let's go Clippers! Let's go Clippers! Let's go Clippers!"
Jokic and Tristan Thompson stood in the middle of the court, and the Clippers fans all stood up and cheered loudly.
Li Ze and LeBron James both stood in their own half with serious expressions.
As two figures, one white and one black, jumped up at the same time, the ball was flicked away by Tristan Thompson, Love took control of the ball, and then Irving immediately stepped forward to receive the ball.
The Cavaliers in the away game wore black jerseys tonight. Owen quickly dribbled through halftime. The DJ on the scene immediately led the fans to shout loudly:
"Defense! Defense! Defense!"
Tucker was responsible for marking Irving after the opening game. Of course, he knew that his speed was at a disadvantage, so after posting a defensive confrontation outside the three-point line at the top of the arc, he quickly opened the distance again.
In the regular season, the Cavaliers will probably look for Love at the beginning of the game, but tonight's game, Irving started the offensive mode.
LeBron James on the right wing didn't ask for the ball either. The Cavaliers opened up the offensive space, and Love and JR-Smith lined up in the left and right corners.
Tristan Thompson quickly came to the top of the arc to perform a high pick-and-roll. Irving, who was holding the ball in his left hand, quickly dribbled the ball behind his back after his teammates stood still.
Simple shaking, but received good results, Irving close to the left side of Tristan Thompson's body accelerated breakthrough.
Tucker, who failed to squeeze through the screen, hurriedly switched to Tristan Thompson, who went down. Jokic could only sit high on the right hand, and made a delayed defense after sliding.
With the ball in his left hand, Irving continued to accelerate to the left elbow of the free throw line. He crossed back and pulled back in a big way.
"Shua!" The two-pointer was hit steadily.
The simple and rude offense made Tyronn Lue on the sidelines smile and nod, and then loudly reminded his players to stay focused.
It is still an old problem for the Clippers. Pick-and-roll defense will always be punished by guards, especially when encountering players who can make sudden shots, Jokic has a high probability of losing points in the middle distance.
"shush"
The booing sounded at the scene, but made everyone in the Cavaliers a little excited. After serving the ball from the baseline, Li Ze dribbled the ball halfway, and LeBron James immediately defended him.
When it came to the finals, James didn't hold back anymore. He stood in front of Li Ze at the beginning of the game, stuck to the defense and robbed, then stepped on the three-point line, lowered his body's center of gravity, and stared at Li Ze's movements.
The fans at the scene began to cheer loudly. This is the scene that everyone is most looking forward to. Ace vs. Ace, star duel, fans' favorite.
I was a little surprised that LeBron James would personally stand in front of him. After noticing that there was no double-teaming, Li Ze, who held the ball in his left hand, raised his center of gravity, and then quickly in and out.
His body swayed in confusion, and while LeBron James moved defensively, Li Ze quickly changed direction with his crotch, and then held the ball in his right hand to pretend to break through.
Li Ze's body center of gravity dropped, LeBron James was stressed to defend, and quickly slid to the left rear. At this time, Li Ze crossed and pulled back instantly, James could only adjust the defensive center of gravity
Li Ze, who returned to the three-point line, dribbled the ball under the crotch twice very quickly, shaking his body from left to right.
LeBron James was a little confused at this time, and he couldn't make too many defensive moves. Li Ze, who was outside the three-point line, saw the timing, suddenly stopped the ball, kicked up with force, and quickly shot a jumper from outside the three-point line !
"Shua!" The three-pointer hit the net hollowly!
The aggressive defense finally got Li Ze's three-pointer at the top of the arc. LeBron James was expressionless, but he cursed secretly in his heart.
Coach De Nagro also smiled and clapped his hands. He likes the current defensive options of the Cavaliers. If he defends alone, his thighs can easily be singled out!
The Clippers played very quickly this time. Like the Cavaliers, they all scored with the individual ability of the stars.
The first quarter of the game has just started, and the two sides have entered a state where star players are scoring points against each other.
Irving once again made a high pick-and-roll, and hit the elbow on the right side of the free throw line. He drifted and scored two points with a fadeaway jumper.
The Clippers quickly served the baseline ball, and Li Ze quickly dribbled the ball across the half court with his left hand. Butterfly pretended to turn around halfway, then suddenly lowered his center of gravity, and accelerated the breakthrough sideways.
It took two strides to reach the left side of the free throw line. Li Ze suddenly blasted the ball vigorously, took advantage of the trend to push the ball to change direction, got rid of James' defense, took a big step laterally, and succeeded in drifting and jumping back!
Owen hit the basket and scored again, Li Ze made a strong shot with the ball in his right hand, turned around in the paint, and succeeded in a high throw with his left hand.
The atmosphere in the Staples Arena exploded, and the fans shouted happily.
At 6:7, the two sides refused to give in to each other, and the simple and rough scoring made everyone completely happy.
LeBron James' face was dark, he couldn't help it, he could feel that Li Ze was playing very easily.
The high-flying Irving didn't care about the teammates who followed the switchback, and quickly dribbled through the half court. At this time, the Clippers' defense had just settled down.
Before Tucker could react, Owen, who came to the left flank outside the three-point line, suddenly stopped suddenly, and then pulled out directly!
"state!"
The long rebound popped out, and Li Ze accurately predicted the ball's landing point, shrunk into the paint area, and successfully protected the backcourt rebound.
The wayward offense allowed the Clippers to seize the opportunity to counterattack, and Li Ze, who was holding the ball in his left hand, continued to accelerate.
Facing James' defense and circling the ball behind his back, Li Ze continued to accelerate with the ball in his right hand.
When the two came to the top of the arc, Li Ze suddenly pulled back under his crotch. After an emergency stop, his left hand turned around sharply, and then his right hand caught the ball again.
The fancy moves immediately made the Clippers fans on the scene cheer loudly, stop and start in a hurry, and made James lose his defensive position.
Seeing Li Ze rushing up and taking off quickly in three big strides, James also jumped up behind him to block the shot!
Li Ze curled up in the air, dodged the block, and glided to the lower left of the basket in the air. With a twist of his right wrist, the ball spun and hit the backboard, and finally fell into the basket.
"Oh!!"
After switching offense and scoring, the Clippers fans cheered loudly. Li Ze scored 9 points in a row at the start. Tyronn Lue lost his smile and simply requested a timeout.
"I have to say that facing a single defense, Kayce's offense is almost unstoppable. The Cavaliers chose the wrong way to defend."
Mark Jackson didn't expect that the star players would stab each other at the beginning. Irving stabbed Jokic, and Li Ze also scored consecutive points against James' defense.
"I believe this is just a temptation for the Cavaliers. Tyronn Lue's timeout is very timely! They must readjust their defensive strategy."
Although Jeff Van Gundy enjoyed watching it, he understood that the two sides would not continue to persist, at least the Cavaliers would definitely start double-teaming.
On the bench of the Cavaliers, Tyronn Lue felt that his little thoughts had no effect, the illusion in his heart was completely broken, and Li Ze was still in a hot state.
"LeBron, adjust the defensive position, we need to sweep the defense, and the offensive end, everyone must participate."
Tyronn Lue's words made Irving, who was in good shape, curl his lip in his heart. He felt that he could easily handle the defense of Tucker and Jokic.
James nodded, took the tactical board again, and after comparing the pictures, he immediately gave a brief reminder of the precautions on the defensive end.
On the Clippers' bench, Jokic's mentality almost collapsed, and Irving was much more aggressive than in the regular season.
"Be optimistic about our defenders. We must limit the opponent's outside scoring. Nikola, now is not the time to be frustrated. We are leading. Keep this rhythm!"
Coach De Nagro had predicted that Jokic would be blown up, and immediately served chicken soup.
Fatty Bai felt that he had become Owen's scope, and he could only nod depressingly when he heard what the head coach said.
Li Ze didn't care about the temporary lead. The Cavaliers' routine hadn't been played yet. Obviously, the opponent hadn't really exerted its strength yet.
After the timeout, the Cavaliers really changed their offensive routine and stopped playing the "give the ball to Irving tactic".
The game started after the timeout, and Irving gave the ball to Love who crossed with Tristan Thompson to cover the low post on the left.
Facing Harris' defense, Love, who put the ball with his right hand, slammed and hit, approaching the paint area, suddenly turned towards the baseline, and shot a fadeaway jumper that drifted to the right.
"Shua!" The two-pointer was scored steadily.
After the goal, Love smiled, and the Cavaliers' offense is currently "give the ball to Love".
When Li Ze dribbled across the half court again, the player defending him became JR-Smith, and LeBron James was next to Tucker, with smoke in the right corner.
Compared with the Warriors, the Cavaliers double-teamed more resolutely. Irving gave up Ingles on the right flank and quickly double-teamed.
Li Ze noticed that LeBron James moved two steps up the line, just in a defensive position, and the opponent was ready.
In this case, Li Ze simply held the ball with his left hand, and defended against the defense from outside the three-point line, crushing the breakthrough!
JR-Smith didn't expect Li Ze to be so stubborn and careless for a moment, he was passed by in an instant, and in the end he had to chase and defend desperately.
"Don't switch defenses!"
JR-Smith saw that Tristan Thompson was coming up to the basket, and shouted, but it was too late. Li Ze, who broke through the middle, threw the ball with one hand to Basket top right.
Tristan Thompson's defense with raised hands failed to interfere with the passing route. Jokic grabbed the ball with both hands after violently rising from the basket, and succeeded in an alley-oop dunk!
Jokic heaved a sigh of relief after completing the dunk. This attack can be regarded as venting the depression in his heart, and he hurriedly gave Li Ze a high-five to celebrate.
At 8:11, the game went on for almost 4 minutes, and the two sides still maintained efficient scoring.
For the remainder of the first quarter, the Cavaliers began a "give the ball to Love" and "give the ball to James" tactic.
Compared with David Blatt, Tyronn Lue knows how to mobilize the emotions of core players.
It's just that as the offensive efficiency declines, the strongest tactics of the latter two are not successful.
On the left wing beyond the three-point line, LeBron James received the ball in his most familiar position.
Still a pick-and-roll attack, this time Li Ze squeezed past Tristan Thompson's screen.
James saw Jokic's retreating defense, and felt the defensive pressure brought by Li Ze beside him. He broke through to the left elbow area, made a sudden stop, and hit Li Ze's block angrily.
The twisted Jokic stuck Tristan Thompson behind him and successfully protected the backcourt rebound!
Perhaps it was too much rebounding, and Tristan Thompson's arm was still entangled with the white fat man's.
The two exerted their strength at the same time, and finally twisted together completely.
The referee rushed forward to separate the two sides, and Tristan Thompson took the opportunity to complain loudly:
"Look at his rebounding moves, they are all fouls!"
Jokic walked towards the half court, came to Tristan Thompson and joked loudly by the way:
"It's only the idiots who complain!"
Tyronn Lue loudly reminded the players on the field not to be impulsive, and the team should maintain this momentum.
As the game time passed, both starters scored. With 1 minute and 1 seconds left in the first quarter, Li Ze and LeBron James left the field at the same time.
At 16:20, looking at the score on the field, Tyronn Lu felt a little regretful:
"The strongest tactics that cannot guarantee efficiency, is this the gap between the stars?"

(End of this chapter)
On May 5th, the divisional finals of the 30-15 season all came to an end, and the duel between Li Ze and LeBron James was staged again.
But this time the script is completely different, the fans are all interested, and the local fans in Cleveland are even full of expectations!
Can't beat the Clippers, who can't beat the Big Three, and can't handle the single-core Clippers?
The two teams played against each other with 1 win and 1 loss in the regular season this season, but after Tyronn Lue took office, the Cavaliers easily won the regular season. Therefore, most critics believe that the Cavaliers have a great advantage.
The 73-win Warriors lost, and Amerika's sports media ridiculed the Warriors as the Eagles of the Western Conference.
In the 14-15 season, the Eagles had a record of 60 wins. In the Eastern Conference finals, they met the Cavaliers led by LeBron James. They had no resistance and were swept out 4:0.
In the 15-16 season, the Eagles once again scored 48 wins, and encountered the Cavaliers in the Eastern Conference semifinals, and the result was a 4:0 sweep.
The Eagles also have many players selected as All-Stars in the Eastern Conference. This situation happens to be very similar to that of the Warriors. Everyone is a soldier, but in the playoffs it just won’t work.
The reason is also very simple. Most of America's football critics concluded that she lacks talent!
An excellent system can allow a team to achieve an excellent record in the regular season, but in the playoffs, after repeated matches and the routines are figured out, most of them are fighting for talent.
With the rise of Li Ze, the good days of the system team are over. The reason why Popovich, a bad old man, doesn't like Li Ze's team is because superstars have destroyed the so-called basketball system.
Whether it's the Spurs' internal and external team basketball, or the Warriors' pursuit of fast-paced pass and cut offense, it's useless to meet Li Ze's team.
Coach De Nagro's tactics are also simple. To catch the opponent's weakness, if you are fast, I will be slow, and if you are slow, I will be faster.
The simple and crude tactics of the "V"-shaped offense made the Clippers play well because Li Ze, who had the ball in his hand, was too strong.
TNT does not have the rights to broadcast the finals, so at this time of the year, you can only enjoy your mouth.
Although the story of LeBron James winning the championship this year has been full, no one wants to let go of the hot spot of Li Ze:
"In the Western Conference finals, he averaged 29.0 shots per game, hit 20.2 goals, and his shooting percentage was as high as 69.5%;"
"Average 7.3 shots per game from outside the three-point line, hit 3.8 goals, make 52.1% of three-pointers, average 8.3 free throws per game, and make 96.1% of free throws!"
“西部决赛场均出场42分钟,场均52.3分11.6篮板8.3助攻1.8抢断1.0盖帽1.7失误,直到现在,我仍不敢相信我们竟然见证了这样的表现!”
After the host Ernie Johnson introduced Li Ze's data, the three people on the side were a little silent.
I don’t blame the Warriors for losing, I can only say that Li Ze is really not human
The true shooting percentage (TS%) has come to an exaggerated 80.1%. The outside players have played a more stable performance than the inside players. God is playing with the No. 10 jersey?
Not only simple data such as true hit rate and effective hit rate, but even BMP (basic positive and negative values) have followed suit.
Li Ze exploded BMP in the regular season. In the previous seasons, LeBron James could still find comfort in this high-level data, but with the birth of 40+ triple-doubles in the regular season, the high-level data exploded.
BMP16.96, the first in Li Ze history, No.2 LeBron James BMP12.99, No.3 Michael Jordan BMP12.56.
As for outdated high-level data like Per (efficiency value), no one cares about it anymore. Many football critics don’t want to announce Li Ze’s high-level data in the playoffs, which is a bit higher than the regular season.
This kind of crushed data made the sports media think that the current high-level data has a bug, and they are currently busy correcting it.
Many fans of Amelia have already rated Li Ze as the GOAT of the data field. As long as the number of champions is equal, the "God Slaying Movement" will officially begin.
In the Celestial Dynasty on the other side of the ocean, Danzi has been compared with Li Ze every day recently, and the two sides are currently winning and losing.
But if you can't stand it, most fans' buttocks are crooked. Michael Jordan has lost his No.1 position in history.
In the Celestial Dynasty, Kobe was reduced to an inefficient blacksmith, Curry became a system pitcher, LeBron James Babu Lang, Chris Paul and Blake Griffin purely hugged their thighs, and other stars in the league were all chickens tile dog.
That’s why Durant and Guiguifeng have good reviews. After all, everyone is still looking forward to Durant assisting Li Zena during the offseason, so you can’t blackmail your teammates.
In the studio, Kenny Smith seemed to recall the recent trends in the media, looked at Li Ze's data, and finally said in a playful tone:
"The Warriors with 73 wins can only win 2 games. I don't think the Cavaliers will be better than the Warriors."
"Leonard in the Western Conference semifinals and Iguodala in the Western Conference finals could not limit Kayce, and the Cavaliers did not have very good perimeter defensive resources."
"If you want to win a championship, you have to ask Kayce first."
After Charles Barkley poured milk on the Warriors, he immediately changed his tone and stood firmly on the side of talented basketball:
"The Warriors don't have enough talent, just like the 60-win Hawks did, and in the playoffs, the shortcomings were magnified."
"The Cavaliers are completely different. Kyrie Irving has unparalleled offensive talent, and he can help the team get points steadily."
"Kevin Love can protect the rebound and provide outside firepower. As long as LeBron James activates his teammates, the Cavaliers can easily win."
Staring and talking nonsense, O'Neill automatically ignored the logic of his old partner and sided with the Cavaliers:
"The Cavaliers have truly talented players. Unlike Curry, Irving does not rely on three-pointers and has more offensive methods."
"Basketball is for 5 people, Irving will be a powerful helper for James, and the Clippers have not met a real opponent in this year's playoffs."
The host Ernie Johnson watched the two talking nonsense, and immediately laughed and joked:
"Aren't the 67-win Spurs and the 73-win Warriors a real rival? Don't forget, the Warriors also eliminated the Thunder, which is the Thunder with Durant and Westbrook!"
O'Neill laughed under his breath, and then retorted with reason:
"We all know how the Warriors got their 73-point shots. Without those illegal screens, they wouldn't be able to win [-] games."
"And these tricks don't work in the playoffs. The Spurs are too old and the defense can't keep up. Kayce has proven it. Looking at his numbers, this is probably the easiest series he has ever experienced in his career. gone."
"."
The TNT program also represents the views of the mainstream media. Li Ze has won too much. The league does not want the Clippers to dominate. After all, the Clippers have to strengthen during the offseason.
The Cavaliers have the highest salary this season, and with the blessing of hometown basketball Buff, LeBron James regained the protagonist script. After many years of failure, he returned to his hometown to win the championship, which is more in line with the story of competitive sports.
The finals will officially start on June 6. The two teams still have more than 2 days of preparation time. The Clippers hold the home court advantage and can wait for the arrival of the Cavaliers.
The coaching staff just gave the players a day off. So far in the playoffs, the Clippers have already shown their cards tactically. As for how to make a targeted defense against the Cavaliers, head coach De Nagro also has some ideas.
In short, as long as Li Ze is in a stable state, everything is possible.
During the playoffs, during a rare holiday, Li Ze happened to accompany Lily Collins who came back from England.
Phil Collins has had some physical problems recently. In the past six months, the famous ladies of A have been by his father's side.
Lily Collins’ mansion in Beverly Hills can’t be lived in for a few months a year. In recent years, Li Ze has lived here more times than A celebrity
Lily Collins, who didn't wake up until noon, came to the dining room, watched Li Ze eating lunch slowly, and couldn't help complaining:
"Phil told me to stay away from you, he has already seen that you are not a good person!"
Li Ze was almost choked, it was his fault, he learned how to play the drums, and made a mess of his teacher's daughter, when he saw the messy-haired lady A sitting across from him, he hurriedly changed the subject:
"How is his health? I said long ago that he shouldn't retire prematurely. Phil must not be used to the current life."
After taking a look at Li Ze, Lily Collins really likes her current life, with more and more dollars, from an actor to a business owner, and she started to enjoy life ahead of schedule:
"He is 65 years old. There is a reason why the British media said after he retired that he became an old man with a weird temper. However, it is not a physical problem, but that he needs the company of his family when he is old."
Li Ze had a strange expression on his face. If he remembered correctly, Phil had changed girlfriends a few years ago. The old man is old-hearted, so how could he be lonely?
Seeing that Li Ze didn't speak, Lily Collins immediately guessed what the scumbag was thinking.
It's just that she doesn't know how to criticize the elders' emotional life. After all, her own father, with a daughter like her, is already rare:
"Is Tate's health okay? You should pay more attention to the children."
When mentioning his precious son, Li Ze felt a little helpless, the little one was really cute, but he grew up too fast, he didn't look like a child under one year old at all.
Shakira was terrified. Although the doctor repeatedly told her that the child was extremely healthy, the blond sister was still very nervous. Recently, she went to New York for a checkup.
It is most likely related to energy drinks. Li Ze feels that his baby's physical fitness must have been optimized, but he can't explain this. He can only wait for Annie to give birth to see the situation.
"Believe in science, I found the best doctor in Los Angeles!"
Hearing Li Ze's words, he nodded to the famous lady A, but he was still a little annoyed at the scumbag who was working hard:
"If I have a child in the future, you have to stay by my side!"
Li Ze could only nod his head in response. According to the plan, the beautiful girls will not consider having children until they are around 30 years old. Considering the difficult process of human creation, no one has taken protective measures in recent years.
As he earned more and more dollars, he continued to invest in the Dutton family, and Li Ze also had his own share of the land. The chicks thought about it, and it would definitely not be a loss to have a child.
Lily-Collins is very satisfied with Li Ze's attitude. Everyone is a community of interests. Coupled with the yearning for a beautiful body, the current life is particularly comfortable:
"If you invest in "Breaking the Rules" this year, if you are nominated for the Golden Globe Award, remember to accompany me to the scene. Don't say you don't have time, and if you play one less game, it won't affect the team."
Investing in movies doesn't make any money at all right now, but this is a good opportunity to expand your network. This chick is very good at finding opportunities to act like a baby, so she suddenly paid in advance for next year:
"No problem, if you have any other requirements, just say it in one breath!"
When Li Ze saw the coquettish face of celebrity A, he knew that the other party must have something else.
"By the way, help me prepare two tickets to the finals. Phil also wants to come and see you. Remember not to lose. Older fans can't afford to lose."
Lily Collins leaned on her chin and burst into laughter when she saw Li Ze's frowning face. It was time for her father to help her vent her anger!
This year’s Finals received a lot more attention than last year. In the 14-15 season, the 73-win Clippers were too dominant, and the Cavaliers were troubled by injuries. The finals lost suspense and the ratings were affected.
President Adam Silva was naturally dissatisfied with last year's finals. Fortunately, Li Ze's three consecutive championships were also a hot topic. The birth of the dynasty team did not completely collapse the heat of the finals.
This year, the NBA has learned a lesson. Before the finals, it first told a historical story of Cleveland sports.
Then he portrayed LeBron James as an urban hero who turned his prodigal son back and fought for his hometown basketball!
Li Ze's 40+ triple-doubles in the regular season and 50+ quasi-triple-doubles in the Western Conference Finals have their own traffic. Driven by the league, the popularity exploded.
One side is relying on statistics and personal strength, and the other is an urban hero who has failed for many years and is making a comeback. Just like this, Amica fans can't wait to play the finals tomorrow.
Head coach De Nagro led the coaching staff to prepare for the game step by step. The coaching staff knew the information about the Cavaliers:
During the regular season, the Cavaliers averaged 104.3 points per game, ranking 8th in the league, scoring 110.95 points per 4 rounds, second only to the Thunder and ranking [-]th in the league.
The Cavaliers allowed opponents to score 98.3 points in the regular season. On the defensive end, the opposing team is indeed a better team.
After Tristan Thompson mentioned starting, he brought great changes to the Cavaliers' defense.
Tyronn Lue still has two brushes. After the All-Star Game, the team's status has improved, and it is a different team from David Blatt's time.
The playing styles of the two teams are somewhat similar, both relying heavily on the performance of core players, the most prominent being superstar basketball.
The assistant coach watched many Cavaliers game videos and found that the opponent's performance in the playoffs was somewhat different from the regular season.
Up to now, the three-pointer is more accurate. So far, the playoffs have shot 39.1% from outside the three-point line.
"Vinny, are we going to put Kayce on James? The team's current defensive resources, maybe it's hard for us to limit Kyrie Irving's scoring."
Coach De Nagro is not worried about the team's offense, because with Li Ze, this is the basic set, but how to adjust the defensive end, he just has some small ideas:
"According to the plan, the connection between James and his teammates is still cut off. As for the defensive matchup, we can make adjustments at halftime."
The coaching staff is still a little worried about the team's defense. Unlike the Warriors, the Cavaliers have two assaulters. In Tyronn Lue's tactical system, James and Irving will inevitably attack the Clippers' inside.
Pick-and-roll defense has always been Jokic's weakness, and Harris' basket protection also has problems. The Clippers will lose a lot of points in this regard every game.
Coach De Nagro is of course aware of the team's defense, but there is only one Li Ze in the league, and the disadvantages inside can only be made up by the outside.
On June 6, after the crazy preheating of the NBA and ESPN, the atmosphere of the finals became more and more heated.
Many enthusiastic Cleveland fans even bought away tickets to travel with the team!
Every year in the finals, the league conducts short interviews with each player. In addition to warming up, these short videos are also convenient for fans to better understand the stars.
This year, LeBron James, who got the lead script, frequently mentioned hometown basketball in interviews.
The Chosen One has indeed made a lot of contributions to the Akron community, and as an opinion leader, he also pulled votes for the Donkey Party by the way.
Such a move has naturally won the appreciation of many fans. Low-key, focused, speaking for his hometown and the black community, James has finally become a high-quality idol in the hearts of fans.
"I will bring back a championship for Cleveland, and I will break the curse of Cleveland sports without a championship for 52 years. In the finals, I will do my best!"
In the interview, LeBron James expressed his sentiments, which made Cleveland fans extremely excited. He has also been extremely active on social media these days:
"Knight Championship!"
In contrast, Li Ze, who has won three consecutive championships and won the MVP this year, does not have so many stories. If it is necessary to bring up the topic, personal six consecutive championships is a great achievement.
But it's a pity that Amerika's media will not promote Li Ze as a big winner, and the majority of Lezi fans also hope that Li Ze will lose.
After all, they can't even beat Li Ze's fans in a big fight now, so if there is another championship, it will be impossible to go to heaven?
The Cavaliers who came to Los Angeles also appeared to be very low-key. Tyronn Lue even asked the players not to meet with the Clippers players in private.
In the finals, Tyronn Lue hopes that the team can show a tough temperament, and "brother basketball" has to stand aside at this time!
With the release of the short interview on the evening of the 1st, coupled with the highlights of the playoffs of the two teams, the atmosphere reached its climax.
The finals G1 officially started at 6:2 on June 21nd. Li Ze has been training steadily these days. He is considered a veteran of the finals, so naturally he will not feel nervous.
However, the Clippers have a lot of new players this season. Everyone is very excited to experience such a big scene for the first time.
This is the finals. The ABC channel broadcasts it live across the United States, and more than ten million people watch it. If you can show your face, your career can be called a success.
On the evening of the 2nd, when Li Ze appeared in the Staples Arena in a dark blue formal suit, the sports reporters who had been waiting for a long time in the parking lot began to follow suit.
Although the direction of the wind has changed, many critics have begun to favor James' hometown basketball, but Li Ze's data has also made these sports media unable to stop.
Even if it is a loss, everyone wants to see what kind of outrageous performance Li Ze can play.
A large number of media surrounded Li Ze, and reporters from Yahoo Sports jumped up and down and shouted questions:
"Kayce, what kind of stats will you put up tonight, and will you still get a 50+ triple-double?"
Li Ze took off his sunglasses, walked towards the player tunnel, and replied confidently:
"I'll get the win, that's all!"
"."
As the game was about to start, the Staples Arena was packed, and Clippers fans in red cheering T-shirts began to twist their bodies to the live music.
The live broadcast of "Shots" is Li Ze's single that has just been released, and Magnum's second studio album is currently selling well.
The joyful atmosphere didn't cool down until the lights went out, and the DJ introduced the visiting team to play. LeBron James came on the stage, and the Staples Center erupted with huge boos immediately.
Years of failures have made LeBron James more calm, and the Chosen One has become low-key and introverted. Such changes have also ushered in word-of-mouth gains, and Zhan Chui has also made a comeback!
The Clippers players came on stage, and the cheers continued to ring out. When Li Ze was introduced on the stage, the DJ on the scene even raised the volume:
"Let's welcome 5-time MVP, 5-time championship winner, NBA superstar, Number 10 from UCLA, Kayce——Li!"
Li Ze trotted all the way with a smile on his face and gave his teammates high fives. LeBron James twitched his lips when he heard about the previous achievements. He won all the championships.
Li Ze's fans started shouting crazily, and the atmosphere reached a climax!
In the commentary seat of ESPN, the commentator Mike Brin was in a good mood. This year there will definitely not be a crushing game. The Cavaliers are well-manned, and he can't wait:
"As expected, Tyronn Lue did not make a change tonight."
"The Cavaliers start with Kyrie Irving and JR Smith in the backcourt, LeBron James and Kevin Love up front, and Tristan Thompson at center."
Jeff Van Gundy is very optimistic about the Cavaliers. Before the game started, he blew a wave:
"From the perspective of lineup talent, the Cavaliers who have not been troubled by injuries have a huge advantage. The more mature LeBron James will not miss such an opportunity!"
Mark Jackson noted the change in the Clippers' starting lineup:
"PJ-Tucker started tonight, so Ingles played at the 2 position. Maybe Kayce will be responsible for marking Kyrie Irving tonight."
"Of course I'm more looking forward to seeing the matchup between him and LeBron James."
The two sides had a final warm-up, and Li Ze greeted Love by the way:
"Good luck, Bro! I'm going to be running the pick-and-roll at the 4 to start the night."
When Le Fu heard Li Ze's words, he immediately scolded with a smile:
"This is the first finals in my career, you guys are too ruthless!"
In the brother basketball version, most players are in the state of hello, me, hello, everyone. Although LeBron James was in a bad mood, he didn't say anything when he looked at Love in the end.
He thought that Owen would warmly greet Li Ze when he met Li Ze, but he didn't expect Owen to be very focused tonight. James is very satisfied with this!
"Let's go Clippers! Let's go Clippers! Let's go Clippers!"
Jokic and Tristan Thompson stood in the middle of the court, and the Clippers fans all stood up and cheered loudly.
Li Ze and LeBron James both stood in their own half with serious expressions.
As two figures, one white and one black, jumped up at the same time, the ball was flicked away by Tristan Thompson, Love took control of the ball, and then Irving immediately stepped forward to receive the ball.
The Cavaliers in the away game wore black jerseys tonight. Owen quickly dribbled through halftime. The DJ on the scene immediately led the fans to shout loudly:
"Defense! Defense! Defense!"
Tucker was responsible for marking Irving after the opening game. Of course, he knew that his speed was at a disadvantage, so after posting a defensive confrontation outside the three-point line at the top of the arc, he quickly opened the distance again.
In the regular season, the Cavaliers will probably look for Love at the beginning of the game, but tonight's game, Irving started the offensive mode.
LeBron James on the right wing didn't ask for the ball either. The Cavaliers opened up the offensive space, and Love and JR-Smith lined up in the left and right corners.
Tristan Thompson quickly came to the top of the arc to perform a high pick-and-roll. Irving, who was holding the ball in his left hand, quickly dribbled the ball behind his back after his teammates stood still.
Simple shaking, but received good results, Irving close to the left side of Tristan Thompson's body accelerated breakthrough.
Tucker, who failed to squeeze through the screen, hurriedly switched to Tristan Thompson, who went down. Jokic could only sit high on the right hand, and made a delayed defense after sliding.
With the ball in his left hand, Irving continued to accelerate to the left elbow of the free throw line. He crossed back and pulled back in a big way.
"Shua!" The two-pointer was hit steadily.
The simple and rude offense made Tyronn Lue on the sidelines smile and nod, and then loudly reminded his players to stay focused.
It is still an old problem for the Clippers. Pick-and-roll defense will always be punished by guards, especially when encountering players who can make sudden shots, Jokic has a high probability of losing points in the middle distance.
"shush"
The booing sounded at the scene, but made everyone in the Cavaliers a little excited. After serving the ball from the baseline, Li Ze dribbled the ball halfway, and LeBron James immediately defended him.
When it came to the finals, James didn't hold back anymore. He stood in front of Li Ze at the beginning of the game, stuck to the defense and robbed, then stepped on the three-point line, lowered his body's center of gravity, and stared at Li Ze's movements.
The fans at the scene began to cheer loudly. This is the scene that everyone is most looking forward to. Ace vs. Ace, star duel, fans' favorite.
I was a little surprised that LeBron James would personally stand in front of him. After noticing that there was no double-teaming, Li Ze, who held the ball in his left hand, raised his center of gravity, and then quickly in and out.
His body swayed in confusion, and while LeBron James moved defensively, Li Ze quickly changed direction with his crotch, and then held the ball in his right hand to pretend to break through.
Li Ze's body center of gravity dropped, LeBron James was stressed to defend, and quickly slid to the left rear. At this time, Li Ze crossed and pulled back instantly, James could only adjust the defensive center of gravity
Li Ze, who returned to the three-point line, dribbled the ball under the crotch twice very quickly, shaking his body from left to right.
LeBron James was a little confused at this time, and he couldn't make too many defensive moves. Li Ze, who was outside the three-point line, saw the timing, suddenly stopped the ball, kicked up with force, and quickly shot a jumper from outside the three-point line !
"Shua!" The three-pointer hit the net hollowly!
The aggressive defense finally got Li Ze's three-pointer at the top of the arc. LeBron James was expressionless, but he cursed secretly in his heart.
Coach De Nagro also smiled and clapped his hands. He likes the current defensive options of the Cavaliers. If he defends alone, his thighs can easily be singled out!
The Clippers played very quickly this time. Like the Cavaliers, they all scored with the individual ability of the stars.
The first quarter of the game has just started, and the two sides have entered a state where star players are scoring points against each other.
Irving once again made a high pick-and-roll, and hit the elbow on the right side of the free throw line. He drifted and scored two points with a fadeaway jumper.
The Clippers quickly served the baseline ball, and Li Ze quickly dribbled the ball across the half court with his left hand. Butterfly pretended to turn around halfway, then suddenly lowered his center of gravity, and accelerated the breakthrough sideways.
It took two strides to reach the left side of the free throw line. Li Ze suddenly blasted the ball vigorously, took advantage of the trend to push the ball to change direction, got rid of James' defense, took a big step laterally, and succeeded in drifting and jumping back!
Owen hit the basket and scored again, Li Ze made a strong shot with the ball in his right hand, turned around in the paint, and succeeded in a high throw with his left hand.
The atmosphere in the Staples Arena exploded, and the fans shouted happily.
At 6:7, the two sides refused to give in to each other, and the simple and rough scoring made everyone completely happy.
LeBron James' face was dark, he couldn't help it, he could feel that Li Ze was playing very easily.
The high-flying Irving didn't care about the teammates who followed the switchback, and quickly dribbled through the half court. At this time, the Clippers' defense had just settled down.
Before Tucker could react, Owen, who came to the left flank outside the three-point line, suddenly stopped suddenly, and then pulled out directly!
"state!"
The long rebound popped out, and Li Ze accurately predicted the ball's landing point, shrunk into the paint area, and successfully protected the backcourt rebound.
The wayward offense allowed the Clippers to seize the opportunity to counterattack, and Li Ze, who was holding the ball in his left hand, continued to accelerate.
Facing James' defense and circling the ball behind his back, Li Ze continued to accelerate with the ball in his right hand.
When the two came to the top of the arc, Li Ze suddenly pulled back under his crotch. After an emergency stop, his left hand turned around sharply, and then his right hand caught the ball again.
The fancy moves immediately made the Clippers fans on the scene cheer loudly, stop and start in a hurry, and made James lose his defensive position.
Seeing Li Ze rushing up and taking off quickly in three big strides, James also jumped up behind him to block the shot!
Li Ze curled up in the air, dodged the block, and glided to the lower left of the basket in the air. With a twist of his right wrist, the ball spun and hit the backboard, and finally fell into the basket.
"Oh!!"
After switching offense and scoring, the Clippers fans cheered loudly. Li Ze scored 9 points in a row at the start. Tyronn Lue lost his smile and simply requested a timeout.
"I have to say that facing a single defense, Kayce's offense is almost unstoppable. The Cavaliers chose the wrong way to defend."
Mark Jackson didn't expect that the star players would stab each other at the beginning. Irving stabbed Jokic, and Li Ze also scored consecutive points against James' defense.
"I believe this is just a temptation for the Cavaliers. Tyronn Lue's timeout is very timely! They must readjust their defensive strategy."
Although Jeff Van Gundy enjoyed watching it, he understood that the two sides would not continue to persist, at least the Cavaliers would definitely start double-teaming.
On the bench of the Cavaliers, Tyronn Lue felt that his little thoughts had no effect, the illusion in his heart was completely broken, and Li Ze was still in a hot state.
"LeBron, adjust the defensive position, we need to sweep the defense, and the offensive end, everyone must participate."
Tyronn Lue's words made Irving, who was in good shape, curl his lip in his heart. He felt that he could easily handle the defense of Tucker and Jokic.
James nodded, took the tactical board again, and after comparing the pictures, he immediately gave a brief reminder of the precautions on the defensive end.
On the Clippers' bench, Jokic's mentality almost collapsed, and Irving was much more aggressive than in the regular season.
"Be optimistic about our defenders. We must limit the opponent's outside scoring. Nikola, now is not the time to be frustrated. We are leading. Keep this rhythm!"
Coach De Nagro had predicted that Jokic would be blown up, and immediately served chicken soup.
Fatty Bai felt that he had become Owen's scope, and he could only nod depressingly when he heard what the head coach said.
Li Ze didn't care about the temporary lead. The Cavaliers' routine hadn't been played yet. Obviously, the opponent hadn't really exerted its strength yet.
After the timeout, the Cavaliers really changed their offensive routine and stopped playing the "give the ball to Irving tactic".
The game started after the timeout, and Irving gave the ball to Love who crossed with Tristan Thompson to cover the low post on the left.
Facing Harris' defense, Love, who put the ball with his right hand, slammed and hit, approaching the paint area, suddenly turned towards the baseline, and shot a fadeaway jumper that drifted to the right.
"Shua!" The two-pointer was scored steadily.
After the goal, Love smiled, and the Cavaliers' offense is currently "give the ball to Love".
When Li Ze dribbled across the half court again, the player defending him became JR-Smith, and LeBron James was next to Tucker, with smoke in the right corner.
Compared with the Warriors, the Cavaliers double-teamed more resolutely. Irving gave up Ingles on the right flank and quickly double-teamed.
Li Ze noticed that LeBron James moved two steps up the line, just in a defensive position, and the opponent was ready.
In this case, Li Ze simply held the ball with his left hand, and defended against the defense from outside the three-point line, crushing the breakthrough!
JR-Smith didn't expect Li Ze to be so stubborn and careless for a moment, he was passed by in an instant, and in the end he had to chase and defend desperately.
"Don't switch defenses!"
JR-Smith saw that Tristan Thompson was coming up to the basket, and shouted, but it was too late. Li Ze, who broke through the middle, threw the ball with one hand to Basket top right.
Tristan Thompson's defense with raised hands failed to interfere with the passing route. Jokic grabbed the ball with both hands after violently rising from the basket, and succeeded in an alley-oop dunk!
Jokic heaved a sigh of relief after completing the dunk. This attack can be regarded as venting the depression in his heart, and he hurriedly gave Li Ze a high-five to celebrate.
At 8:11, the game went on for almost 4 minutes, and the two sides still maintained efficient scoring.
For the remainder of the first quarter, the Cavaliers began a "give the ball to Love" and "give the ball to James" tactic.
Compared with David Blatt, Tyronn Lue knows how to mobilize the emotions of core players.
It's just that as the offensive efficiency declines, the strongest tactics of the latter two are not successful.
On the left wing beyond the three-point line, LeBron James received the ball in his most familiar position.
Still a pick-and-roll attack, this time Li Ze squeezed past Tristan Thompson's screen.
James saw Jokic's retreating defense, and felt the defensive pressure brought by Li Ze beside him. He broke through to the left elbow area, made a sudden stop, and hit Li Ze's block angrily.
The twisted Jokic stuck Tristan Thompson behind him and successfully protected the backcourt rebound!
Perhaps it was too much rebounding, and Tristan Thompson's arm was still entangled with the white fat man's.
The two exerted their strength at the same time, and finally twisted together completely.
The referee rushed forward to separate the two sides, and Tristan Thompson took the opportunity to complain loudly:
"Look at his rebounding moves, they are all fouls!"
Jokic walked towards the half court, came to Tristan Thompson and joked loudly by the way:
"It's only the idiots who complain!"
Tyronn Lue loudly reminded the players on the field not to be impulsive, and the team should maintain this momentum.
As the game time passed, both starters scored. With 1 minute and 1 seconds left in the first quarter, Li Ze and LeBron James left the field at the same time.
At 16:20, looking at the score on the field, Tyronn Lu felt a little regretful:
"The strongest tactics that cannot guarantee efficiency, is this the gap between the stars?"
