From South China Tiger to NBA King

Chapter 208 Owen who continues to be super god, it's your turn to work hard——Jiang.

"LeBron, take a rest first and adjust your state!!"

Coach Tyronn Lue's response is very simple. Since James is about to be blown up by Irving on the court, let him rest first, let Clarkson play more with the ball, and try to blow up with him.

Tyronn Lue: Anyway, James is not really unable to guard Irving, he is just not used to defending Irving mentally...

James is still a little aggrieved. He has not yet been able to accept the fact that he has been intercepted by Irving consecutively.

"Damn it, that kid was lucky too. Just hit the ball."

"It's not luck, it's prediction."

"You know, he's one of the people who know you best. Few people in the entire league know you better than him."

The light in Tyronn Lue's eyes flashed. At this moment, he regretted that when the management traded Irving to the Celtics, he did not stop him. Now this guy who fought side by side with him turned out to be the team's forward The biggest stumbling block, which is really unpredictable.

"what?"

"Don't understand, your action was predicted by Kyrie to the next step, so he can accurately steal the ball in your hands."

James stared wide-eyed, with a look of disbelief.

Prejudgment?Can this be predicted?

The speed of basketball players, especially basketball players of their level, is terrifying. The movements that appear to be slow on the TV are actually as fast as thunder and lightning.

This is also a sport where basketball is an offensive advantage. The offensive side can create an offensive space instantly by making actions in advance and adding a reaction time for the defensive side.

And what Coach Tyronn Lue meant was that Owen actually omitted the reaction time directly, and completed the judgment as soon as he made the action?
How can this be?

James said that it is difficult for him to understand that he can predict once or twice, and he can predict so many times...

Does he really know me that well? ?

After replacing James, coach Tyronn Lue emphasized defense again.

"Clarkson and Hill must pay attention to helping defend the outside line when they encounter a screen. They must interfere with Kyrie's shot. Tristan goes to follow Jiang and pay attention to defending his shots, especially his mid-range jumpers. Others on the flanks also need to be closer. Help defend, see that Jiang is out of position, immediately interfere with him, you can let Horford shoot from the outside."

Tyronn Lue was not sure, in order to ensure the team's offensive firepower, he let JR play.

In the regular season, Tyronn Lue tried to change the lineup, letting JR Smith play as the sixth man on the bench, but the effect of this play was not good. The aging JR has long been transformed from a guard who is good at attacking the ball to a pitcher , James is not around without him, and it is not easy to open up space.

So he is more suitable to partner with James or other ball holders.

James took a rest, the Cavaliers lineup: Hill, Clarkson, JR Smith, Love, Thompson.

Celtics lineup: Smart, Irving, Jaylen Brown, Jianghu, Horford.

"Jaylen, I'll switch defenses with you."

Seeing JR Smith play, Irving asked for another defense change.

"it is good."

Jay was so happy that he nodded vigorously, and finally wanted to get entangled with other people, and he didn't really want to play with JR, who was out of his mind.

It feels uncomfortable for him to defend JR. Although JR can't find a chance to shoot under his defense, he has a lot of small moves, pulling his jersey and stepping on his shoelaces. It's disgusting to death.

Owen's idea is very simple, that is, to face the person he is most familiar with.

When I was in the Cavaliers, the best player Irving played was Thompson, followed by JR. He always treated James as a colleague and friend, at most he was a buddy, and he was definitely not a brother.

Thompson's size doesn't match him, so defending JR is the most suitable for him.

And his two steals just now made James' mentality unbalanced. If he is in a good state to fight JR, if he is not good, he can be defeated directly.

The Cavaliers' offense is mainly played by James, followed by Love, but Smith is a very important end point. Almost all of the Cavaliers' off-ball tactics have JR Smith's role, and it is very important.

If Smith is also defeated, the game will undoubtedly be much simpler.

The Cavaliers have the ball, and it is still Hill who advances.

"Brother, we are good brothers!!"

"Don't be silly!!"

Seeing Owen who came to him again, JR Smith couldn't help panic and anger.

"Yes, brother, we are brothers."

"But now it's a game, there are no brothers, only opponents!!" Owen said while speaking, and gave JR a slight push to slow down his catch of the ball, almost poking the ball out of bounds.

After Smith received the ball again, he gave Owen an elbow with a muffled grunt, and decisively threw the ball to Hill.

Owen shook his head in disappointment, why didn't this reckless man continue to fight?

Hill passed the ball to Clarkson, who singled out Jaylen Brown.

Clarkson's full name is Jordan Clarkson. Although he does not have Jordan's strength, his arrogance and arrogance are no less than Jordan's, and even better.

"Hey, Jalen, your boss gave you the most dangerous job in the world, do you know that?"

Clarkson was chewing gum, exuding a high-spirited aura all over his body.

Jaylen Brown didn't say a word. Horford told him that these guys who are not particularly fast and not particularly strong like to tease you and pass you the moment you speak.

"It's boring."

Clarkson dribbles quickly. Even though Jaylen Brown is a bit unknown compared to Irving and Jianghu, Clarkson studied him carefully before the Eastern Conference Finals.

As the Celtics' No. [-] outside defensive player besides Smart and Irving, Brown switches to himself. This will definitely happen from time to time, so Coach Tyronn Lue also asked Clarkson to study Brown's carefully. Defensive features.

Not bad strength, Brown is 22 years old this year, and the age between 22 and 30 is definitely the time when a man's strength is the strongest.

Clarkson, who has been trying to increase his muscles in recent years, tried to hit Pope, and found that the opponent seemed to be a striker, and it seemed impossible to hit him...

It doesn't matter!
Anyway, the power style of play is not his regular style of play, what he is better at is the skillful style of play!
He slammed into it sideways, and turned around instantly after hitting it!
Clarkson's back turn rate is quite fast. His explosive coordination and ability to combine man and ball can firmly control the ball in his hands, and it is almost impossible to drop the ball during the turn.

Clarkson has studied Brown, and Brown has also studied Clarkson for a long time. As a player whose physical talent is not as good as Jianghu, and his offensive skills are not as good as Jianghu, Brown has already been forced to become a defensive player. Of course, he hopes that he can be in Jianghu. That Pippen.

Since it is Pippen, how can he be afraid of Jordan.

nonexistent! ! !

Although the whole team has done a lot of defensive adaptation training for each Cavaliers player.But training is training after all. During the game, Brown found that Clarkson's movements were faster than he thought!
Slide!sideways!
Brown barely held on to half of his body, while Clarkson suddenly started and stopped suddenly.

Pause!Dry pull!
Adjust your shooting posture in the air, mid-range jump shot!
Don't think that Clarkson likes to shoot convulsive three-pointers, so he won't know the mid-range. He just has a lot of other advantages covered up by his strong three-pointers.

Clarkson was in the air smoothly, not at all like he had just paused from a rapid state, and he threw the ball smoothly.

From the Philippines, he deserves the title of the strongest Asian player today, and he does have one or two brushes.

Brown resorted to blindfold defense!
It doesn't work at all!
Clarkson still hits.

This is the role of the Nerf Knife player. When God is a god, he is really strong.

"Boy, you can try harder next time."

Clarkson spread his hands, showing a shy smile, and retreated arrogantly, chewing gum in his mouth.

Brown took a deep breath. He knew that with his current ability, it was impossible to strangle any defender.

Consume, consume Clarkson's physical energy while disturbing him as much as possible!
That's all Brown can do.

He constantly sharpens his defense in this way, and one day he will become a defensive gate.

The first half passed quickly, and James still didn't play.

The advantages of the Celtics' substitute lineup and starting lineup were quickly wiped out by the performance of Clarkson and Love.

There is a lot of good news for the Cavaliers today. At least Clarkson and Love, who have been lost for a long time in the previous game, both scored in double figures.

At halftime, the Celtics 65:62 the Cavaliers.

The score continued to be anxious, and this game became Irving's stage.

欧文上半场15投9中拿下23分5篮板6助攻5抢断3失误。

江湖12投7中拿下18分8篮板2助攻1失误，克拉克森13投7中拿下16分5篮板4助攻。

James scored 17 points, 5 rebounds and 5 assists.

Jianghu's 3 turnovers in the halftime are much higher than usual, usually there are only about 1 to 2 turnovers in a game. In this game, the Cavaliers don't know what medicine they took, and the defensive pressure they gave is simply historical. In addition, several times forced into the rivers and lakes mistakes.

"Irving filled the data board, look carefully! If he continues to perform like this in the second half, he will score a quadruple-double!"

"Stealing in double figures? Is it possible? I think it should be more difficult. It is more reasonable to win a triple-double."

"He's guarding LeBron, and LeBron's size and Kyrie's familiarity with him make it easier for him to drop the ball."

"It's strange that Irving's defense against LeBron is slightly higher than Jianghu's. Although the weight gap is very large, LeBron has not shown his size advantage."

"It's still related to the experience of the teammates of the two of them. LeBron will never try his best against Kyrie."

"The performance of Irving and Kyrie in the first half is worthy of the title of the best duo. Are they going to score 60 points together to break the record 70 points in this game?"

"This Eastern Conference Finals has not disappointed so far. This is the highest level of basketball conversation. LeBron forced out the strongest Celtics, and the Celtics will let LeBron do his best."

"Who wins and who loses can't be determined until the last moment, but I know that the winning side will definitely not win the game easily."

"The intermission, the second half of the game will definitely be more exciting!"

"The game has progressed to the fourth quarter! The trials of the Celtics and the Cavaliers are over!"

"At the end of the three quarters, the Celtics beat the Cavaliers 84 to 82."

"You come and go, one after another. The scores of the two sides have crossed and led each other as many as 9 times!"

"LeBron's one-on-one and Irving's response! The two of them stood up to take over the game whenever the team fell behind. Jianghu became the one who watched from the sidelines in this game."

"Can't guard, LeBron can't guard Kyrie, but the Celtics can't limit LeBron."

"The Celtics' bench has an advantage. In this game, the Cavaliers' bench obviously lost to the Celtics' youth storm."

"In the third quarter, Irving scored 3 steals again, 8 steals, [-] steal for Thompson, and [-] for Love, all of which were steals from his old teammates. Currently, he is only two steals away from making double figures in the playoffs! "

"The current record for steals in a single game in the playoffs is jointly held by Craig-Hodges, Yage-Blaylock, and Tim Hardaway. They are all eight! Carey has already tied their records!"

"In the hands of these proud soldiers of the Cavaliers, he scored 8 steals, 4 of which were given to LeBron. As a guard, Irving showed incredible defensive ability, which is something we have never done before. Seeing Kyrie Irving, it's incredible."

"The last section, the most critical section."

"Jiang, it's time to leave it to you!!"

Owen was out of breath. Even Iron Man, under such a high-intensity confrontation and James' tank-like impact, his body really couldn't keep up.

他在前面三节拿下36分8篮板7助攻8抢断5失误，帮助球队撑住了局势。

And James over there has scored 28 points and is heading for 30+.

James played with ease. Although he mainly defended Irving, after reducing the defensive intensity to just interference instead of blocking, his physical consumption was not so noticeable.

Irving needs to score points, organize, defend, and grab steals, which is really tiring.

The green No. 11 Celtics jersey he was wearing was already sweaty. Almost every time the Cavaliers attacked the Cavaliers, they would give Irving a strong confrontation. The intensity of such a game may not be able to withstand the intensity of ordinary people.

而江湖在前三节并没有发力太多，20分5篮板6助攻1抢断2盖帽。

He focused on defense and organization, and more on mobilizing the Cavaliers' rotations. The Cavaliers' footsteps were slowed down under such a pull, which gave Irving more opportunities.

In the fourth quarter, the Cavaliers' defensive rotation speed finally slowed down, and now they need Jianghu to break through the inside and exert their strength.

At the beginning of the fourth quarter, the Celtics have the ball.

The Cavaliers directly replaced the starting lineup, and the Celtics replaced Irving, allowing others to cooperate with Jianghu.

The first ball was directly passed to Jianghu by Horford from a high position.

"Climb for me!!"

With a roar, Jianghu caught the ball and turned around vigorously, like an unreasonable man slammed James away. James hadn't reacted for a while, why was it not Owen on the other side, and was directly knocked down by Lan Jianghu!
Power up the mountain and surpass the world!Jiang Hu hung his hands on the basket and made a dunk again! !

Celtics 86: Cavaliers 82.

"This effect is what I want." Coach Stevens showed a rare look of excitement, standing on the sidelines and punching heavily.

"Continue to maintain this rhythm and we will win this game."

"Continue to fight like this! Jiang!!"

The violent abuse of the basket in Jianghu caused the fans to exclaim, as if they had returned to 2008, and the guy wearing the No. 5 Celtics jersey also liked to buckle like this.

The audience in front of the TV also gasped in amazement.

"This is the highest stage of basketball. This kind of dunk is so cool."

"I also want to hit LeBron for a dunk!!"

In front of the TV, the 14-year-old Wenbanyama looked admiring. Although his style of play was completely different, this wild style of play was enough to fascinate anyone.

The 14-year-old little giant who was just selected for the national team this year and trained with Gobert has stars in his eyes.

But he looked at his skinny body and sighed that he really needed to train more!If he confronts NBA players, he might be hit and fractured. Now he doesn't know that in the future, he will become a top player in the league.

"In the future, we need to hoard more strikers to be Jiang's helpers. The era of the Warriors and James is coming to an end. We must seize Jiang's time. He is a gift from God to the Green Army!!"

Celtics head coach Brad Stevens sat back on the bench, filled with emotion.

"Don't worry, man, we have the first round of the Nets, and there will be better strikers in the future. They are also very young and have great hopes for the future."

The old fox Danny Angie put his hand on his chin, looked at Stevens in a persuasive tone and said.

"And this position will be yours in a short time. When you become the president, you can trade anyone you want. Even if you bring LeBron here, I have no objection. That is your freedom!!!"
