Chapter 190 "Man Comes Crazy" Warrior

On June 6, the Cavaliers arrived in San Francisco one day earlier.

If you want to deal with the Warriors, you must make these preparations.

From the game between the Warriors and the Thunder in the Western Conference Finals, it can be seen that the Warriors' game toughness is amazing. If they can't take the lead at the beginning, it will be more difficult to play later in the game.

"Su, what's the matter, there is no problem with the ankle anymore."

"I'm fine with LeBron, ready to play."

"That's good, the Warriors are not so easy to deal with, and they can't do without anyone."

Su Tian smiled and nodded.

Although what James said was some scene words, it really made people listen comfortably.

The time soon came to June 6, the scene of the first game of the finals.

Standing in the Oracle Arena, Su Tian was also full of emotions. He did not expect the Cavaliers and Warriors to come here.

The Battle of Riding and Bravery 2.0 is officially open.

The Warriors maintained the regular starters, Curry, Clay, Barnes, Green, Bodogte.

The Cavaliers are also the regular starting lineup, Irving, Su Tian, ​​James, Love, Thompson.

At the start of the game, the two sides jumped the ball, the Warriors got the first attack, and Curry advanced with the ball.

After coming to the frontcourt, Curry passed the ball directly to Green, and he started running without the ball. Irving followed Curry closely.

Green held the ball at the top of the arc to observe his teammates' running positions. Love did not step forward to defend too tightly, but took two steps back, ready to assist in water splashes at any time.

Green saw that his shooting space was enough, but Splash was too tight, so he directly shot a three-pointer.

boom--

Green made a three-pointer.

James grabbed the rebound and directly advanced with the ball himself.

The Warriors retreated quickly, and the Cavaliers lost their fast-break opportunity, so James began to call Love for a pick-and-roll, and went straight to the basket with the help of the pick-and-roll.

Green and Barnes retreated at the same time and double-teamed James. James directly passed the ball back to Love at the top of the arc.

Love received the ball and made a three-pointer directly.

Swah——

Love got off to a good start and scored three points.

3-0
Turning his head, Green hit the ground with a pass and found Curry who was making an empty cut. Curry caught the ball and scored a layup.

3-2
The offensive rhythm of both sides is very fast, if you don't pay attention, you will be caught.

The ball is switched, and it's the Cavaliers' turn to attack.

Irving came to the frontcourt with the ball, faced Curry's defense, and after continuous rhythm changes, he successfully opened up the shot space and made a direct three-pointer.

boom--

Basketball hits the iron, Clay gets the ball, and the Warriors start a fast break directly.

Clay knew that Su Tian was difficult to deal with, so he didn't dare to push forward with the ball, but passed the ball directly to Green who was on a fast break.

Green got the ball and hit the basket directly, but was blocked by James' help defense, so Green passed the ball again to Barnes who was keeping up.

Barnes caught the ball and scored a layup from the other side.

3-4
The ball was switched again, and it was the Cavaliers' turn to attack.

This time after Irving came to the frontcourt with the ball, he directly gave the ball to James.

No matter which group has the most confidence in the matchup, it has to be the group of James and Barnes.

So James used the pick-and-roll to directly start a breakthrough, and Green let go of Love to help prevent interference.

And at the moment when Green assisted in the defense, Clay also defended Love, not giving Love a chance to catch the ball and shoot.

Seeing that this attack was about to return in vain, James turned around and passed the ball directly to Su Tian who had just been emptied by Clay.

Su Tian caught the ball and made a three-pointer.

Su Tian hasn't played a game for several days, and the Warriors also want to gamble.

Swah——

Unfortunately, the Warriors lost the bet.

6-4
In the next few rounds, the two sides began to enter the normal offensive and defensive stage. The two sides played back and forth, and the point difference has not changed much.

And Cole didn't dare to take the five small lineups too early, after all, the time is still long, and he can't waste his energy too early.

Therefore, at the end of the first quarter, the Cavaliers temporarily led the Warriors by 28 points 24-4.

During the intermission, Tyronn Lue rotated the lineup. This rotation was mainly to deal with the Warriors' five minors in the third quarter. They sent Dellavedova, Su Tian, ​​James, Frye, and Mozgov.

Keep Irving and Love, the two giants, to prepare for the third quarter.Even James was only scheduled to play for half a quarter.

The Warriors also carried out a regular rotation, with Livingston and Iguodala playing.

Soon, the second quarter began, the Cavaliers had the ball, and Dellavedova received the ball in the backcourt and advanced with the ball.

After coming to the frontcourt, Dellavedova passed the ball directly to Su Tian. Su Tian got the ball and did not rush to attack, but waited for James to move.

When James is on the court, James must be the first offensive point.

After James bypassed two pick-and-rolls in a row, Su Tian passed the ball directly, and James took the ball to the basket.

The Warriors quickly shrank the line of defense and double-teamed James to help defend.

James forcibly came to the basket, pushed away Green's defense, and forced a shot.

boom--

The basketball hit the iron, but the rebound was grabbed by James himself, so he forcibly took off and shot again. This time he was interfered by Iguodala, and the basketball hit the iron again.

James took off continuously and grabbed the rebound again. This time James did not force a shot, but passed the ball to Su Tian who had been waiting for a long time outside.

Su Tian caught the ball and made a three-pointer.

Swah——

Su Tian made a direct three-pointer.

James was also relieved to see Su Tian's hit. Although he scored 2 offensive rebounds in one round, he couldn't score. Everything was false.

31-24
The ball is switched, and it's the Warriors' turn to attack.

Livingston came to the frontcourt with the ball, facing Dellavedova's defense, Livingston passed the ball directly to Green, and then took Dellavedova to the low post.

After waiting for Livingston to complete his position, Green passed the ball, and Livingston received the ball and began to hit Dellavedova continuously.

One or two times, turn over and shoot a jumper.

Swah——

Livingston's low post is still quite accurate.

31-26
It was the Cavaliers' turn to attack again. After Dellavedova came to the frontcourt with the ball, he still passed the ball directly to Su Tian.

Su Tian received the ball and faced Barbosa, called Frye for a pick-and-roll, and used the pick-and-roll to directly break through.

Su Tian's breakthrough was not fast, but the rhythm was unpredictable. Barbosa rushed directly past the defensive position, so Su Tian immediately stopped and shot a jumper.

Swah——

33-26
The Cavaliers hit consecutively, and the point difference never got drawn in. Cole began to panic a little.

After two rounds, Cole called a timeout and began to replace Curry again, trying to let Curry lead the team's offense.

Curry was also unambiguous. After coming up, he hit two consecutive three-pointers to stop the bleeding in time for the Warriors.

On the Cavaliers' side, James' half-quarter time soon came. Tyronn Lue looked at the score that the Cavaliers were still leading, so he replaced James to rest and replaced Richard Jefferson on the bench.

But for the safety of the team, Tyronn Lue also sent Love up to assist Su Tian.

The game continued, and the Cavaliers started to have Su Tian dominate the ball. Su Tian made several pick-and-rolls in a row, which confused the Warriors' defense a bit.

But the Warriors' offense came alive after Curry came up, so the two teams once again fell into a moment of anxious score, and the point difference was very close without much change.

Soon, the second quarter ended. At this time, the Cavaliers 48-48 Warriors, the two teams tied.

At the last moment of the second quarter, Su Tian still failed to resist the offense led by Curry, allowing Curry to successfully catch up with the score.

However, it is already very good to fight the Warriors to this point without opening the plug-in.

During the intermission, in order to cope with the Warriors' third quarter, Tyronn Lue directly dispatched all the main lineup except Su Tian, ​​Irving, JR Smith, James, Love, and Thompson.

Soon, the intermission ended and the third quarter began.

As expected, the Warriors started the second half with five small lineups.

The first ball belonged to the Cavaliers. Irving came to the frontcourt with the ball and was about to pass the ball to James, but was directly intercepted by Green who suddenly appeared on the side.

Green, who grabbed the ball, directly started the fast break mode, and Irving hurried to chase.

Green pushed all the way to the frontcourt, seeing that Irving was already following closely, so he passed the ball to Clay who was keeping up.

Clay caught the ball and made a three-pointer.

But fortunately, Clay's touch this time is not so good, and his shots are hard to hit.

The basketball bounced high. It was a long rebound, which happened to be picked up by jr who was following up.

Jr got the ball and turned around to start a fast break in reverse, passing the ball to James while on the move.

After James got the ball, he went straight to the basket. In order to prevent James from laying up easily, Iguodala had to stand still under the basket, ready to accept James' impact at any time.

But James didn't do what Iguodala thought, but made a mid-range emergency stop jumper.

bang - swish -

The basketball hits the backboard and bounces into the net.

50-48
Although there is an element of luck in this ball, there is nothing wrong with James' choice.

The possession of the ball was converted, and Curry advanced with the ball.

After coming to the frontcourt, Curry directly gave the ball to Green, and Green stood at the top of the arc and began to deal cards.

Because the Warriors' five-small lineup defense must be expanded so wide that the defense under the basket is very empty, so everyone except Green is frantically cutting to create opportunities.

After several consecutive pick-and-rolls, screens, and air cuts, Green passed the ball directly to Curry who ran out of the opportunity, and Curry caught the ball and went straight to the basket.

Irving was blocked by the Warriors and couldn't keep up in time. JR Smith had to make up the defense, but Clay missed it.

Curry passed the ball to Clay who came to the bottom corner without looking at anyone. Clay caught the ball and made a three-pointer directly.

Swah——

Clay hit a direct three-pointer this time, and didn't let the opportunity run away from him again.

50-51
The possession of the ball was switched again, and Irving came to the frontcourt with the ball. This time, Irving was very cautious. He first cooperated with Love in a pick-and-roll, rushed in to attract the defense, and then passed the ball to James.

James got the ball and exploded again, rushing to the basket.

Although Iguodala's defense is good, Iguodala alone will definitely not be able to solve James.

So Green defended James. James saw Green's movement and passed the ball directly to Love outside the three-point line.

Love received the ball and was about to shoot a three-pointer, but Green's defense has returned!
When Su Tian was watching from the sidelines, he couldn't help sighing that he deserved to be the peak Green, who indeed had the strength of the best defensive player.

The rapid lateral movement caused James' breakthrough point to lose its effect directly, but Love was already on the line and had to send it, so he made a direct three-pointer against Green.

boom--

As expected, Love hit the iron with three points.

The rebound was taken by Iguodala, who directly held the ball and pushed the conversion.

Compared with the Cavaliers, the Warriors' fast break speed is faster. After all, the Cavaliers still have Love and Thompson, and they really suffer in terms of speed.

James also only cared about Iguodala hitting the basket, but when Iguodala passed the ball to Barnes, James was beyond his reach.

Barnes received a pass from Iguodala and made a direct three-pointer.

Swah——

With no defense, Barnes' three-pointer is quite accurate.

Su Tian frowned while watching off the court. In history, the Warriors lost the championship in the 15-16 season, not only because of some external factors, but Barnes' abnormal performance is also part of the reason that cannot be ignored.

But now Barnes is not only full of confidence and dares to make a shot, but he can also make a shot!

This inevitably made Su Tian a little more worried.

50-54
The game continued, this time James personally advanced with the ball in the backcourt.

It seems that James wants to control the ball and is bound to score this goal.

After all, with a difference of 4 points, for the teams in the finals, every point is precious.

After James came to the frontcourt, he faced Iguodala and chose to call Love for a pick-and-roll.

After the pick-and-roll, James did not directly break through, but retreated with the ball, and Love turned around and ran to the basket to take away Iguodala.

As a result, Barnes and Iguodala formed a defense, and Barnes faced James.

After James saw that Love was in position, he directly started a breakthrough and pushed Barnes all the way to the basket.

As expected, James, who had just arrived in the penalty area, attracted Green's defense, so he passed the ball to Irving who came to meet him.

Irving received the ball and made a mid-range shot. Curry's defense was ignored by Irving.

Swah——

Irving made a mid-range shot and saved part of the point difference.

52-54
After the hit, Owen also punched hard, obviously Owen also under great pressure.

In last year's finals, Irving was injured after only two games, so many people said that the Cavaliers' championship had little to do with Irving, and some even said that it would be more cost-effective to trade Irving for a 3D.

Of course Irving was dissatisfied, so Irving also wanted to perform in the finals and stop those people's mouths!

Although Owen's mid-range shot hit, it did not stop the Warriors' indiscriminate bombing.

Turning around, Curry hit a three-pointer, and then Love missed a shot, Green grabbed the rebound and started a fast break, Clay received a pass and chased a three-pointer.

In a blink of an eye, the score came to 52-60. Tyronn Lue was afraid that the Warriors' three-pointer would continue, so he raised his hand in time and called a timeout.

In the finals, every timeout is precious, but to deal with a crazy team like the Warriors, you must interrupt him when he is about to rise, otherwise you will be greeted with a stormy three-pointer.

After the timeout, the game continued. Tyronn Lue could no longer sit calmly in his seat, but stood on the sidelines with his hands on his hips.

Looking at Tai Lunlu's footsteps walking back and forth, Su Tian guessed that Tai Lunlu's heart might not be peaceful either.

After returning from the timeout, James held the ball to stabilize the rhythm, commanded Love to fall to the low position, and passed the ball.

Love hit Barnes with his back in the low post, turned around and scored a layup.

54-60
The Cavaliers chose an inside singles tactic to force the Warriors to slow down, but it is not so easy for the Warriors to slow down.
