NBA Old Age Star System

Chapter 194 Cole's Response

After the Cavaliers returned to Cleveland, they did not rush to practice tactics, but took a day off first.

The intensity of the finals is even greater than the playoffs in the Eastern Conference, let alone the regular season.

What's more, the Cavaliers' main lineup played for such a long time in the last game, and they really need to take a good rest, otherwise they are prone to injury problems.

Sure enough, as soon as he returned to Cleveland, Love followed the team doctor to check his body.

Although Love had been acting as a deputy in the last game, on the defensive end, the Warriors regarded the team as a weak point and suffered a lot.

The next day, on June 6, Tyronn Lue announced that Love would not play in the next game and needed a temporary truce.

Su Tian frowned. Without Love, although Love did not take on too many offensive responsibilities, the team would definitely be affected without an All-Star support.

As soon as Tyronn Lue announced Love's truce, he once again brought Irving, Su Tian and James together to start the meeting again.

"LeBron, Kevin is on a truce for the next game. Our team's offense needs you. Be ready to play the entire game!"

"Kyrie, you too, you also need to take on more offensive responsibilities, and like LeBron, be ready to play the whole court."

"Su, as for you, the old rules, cooperate with the two of them in the first three quarters, do a good job in team organization, and the first half of the fourth quarter is your time."

The three of them nodded after listening to Tai Lue's arrangement.

Soon, the time came to June 6, and the third game of the finals officially started.

The Cavaliers truce because of Love's muscle tension, and sent Irving, Su Tian, ​​James, Richard Jefferson, and Thompson.

The Warriors are still the regular starting lineup, and have not made adjustments because of the Cavaliers.

Thinking about it, although Wu Xiao is very strong, but he consumes a lot of physical strength, he can save a little or save a little.

Soon, as the referee blew his whistle, the game began. The Warriors grabbed the initiative and Curry advanced with the ball.

As soon as Curry came to the front court with the ball, the fans on the scene burst into loud shouts, shouting along with the dj on the scene, defend!Defense!Defense!
After Curry came to the frontcourt, he passed the ball directly to Green, and he went to run.

Green got the ball and stood at the top of the arc, watching Jefferson in front of him while observing the running situation.

Suddenly, Green took advantage of Jefferson's inattention and directly shot a three-pointer.

boom--

Green's shot was too sudden, not only did Jefferson fail to react, but even Green himself didn't fully adjust his shooting posture.

The rebound was taken by Thompson, and the ball was passed to Irving, who advanced quickly with the ball.

After coming to the frontcourt, Irving gave the ball to Su Tian. Su Tian held the ball and stood at the top of the arc, observing his teammates' running positions.

It looks like a replica of Green just now, except that Clay is not as open as Jefferson, but clings to Su Tian.

Su Tian held the ball and directly called Jefferson for the pick-and-roll, and directly opened the breakthrough with the help of the pick-and-roll.

Jefferson's pick-and-roll quality is good, but it doesn't block Klay, and Klay re-entangles.

The two confronted for a while, and Su Tian led Clay to the basket, attracting the Warriors' defense, and Su Tian passed the ball to Irving who ran out of the open space.

Irving caught the ball and made a three-pointer directly.

Swah——

3-0
Owen took the lead, and there was a burst of cheers at the scene.

After the Cavaliers hit, the Warriors quickly served the ball, and the Cavaliers were a little slower to return to defense. Green directly held the ball and scored a layup.

3-2
The Warriors' response came quickly, and the offensive was only stronger than in the previous game.

After half a quarter of the first quarter, the two sides did not widen the point difference. Taking advantage of the official timeout, Tyronn Lue replaced Jefferson with Frye.

Jefferson is more athletic than Frye, but Frye's three-pointers are more accurate.

After the timeout ended, the two sides continued to fight fiercely, but the point difference never changed much.

Soon, the first quarter ended, the score came to 28-29, and the Warriors temporarily led by one point.

During the intermission, Tyronn Lue once again emphasized the team's main offensive point to prevent some players from wasting mobile phone opportunities.

Of course, the Cavaliers are basically experienced veterans now, and there are very few low-level mistakes.

In the second quarter, Tylen Lue changed the lineup again, taking Shumpert on and Mozgov replacing Thompson.

With this adjustment, James came to the fourth position, which brought more mobility to the Cavaliers.

The intermission ended and the second quarter began. The Warriors also took Livingston and Iguodala for a normal rotation.

It seems that the Warriors have not made any adjustments compared to the previous game, but Tyronn Lue frowned.

Because according to Tyronn Lue's plan, in the first three quarters of the Cavaliers, both Irving and James were off the court, and they attacked the Warriors frantically.

The result of this is that either the Warriors also increase the playing time of the main force, and the two sides will face each other head-on, fighting for the final physical strength.

Either the Cavaliers opened up a huge point difference and chased them in the fourth quarter.

In the last game, Tyronn Lue successfully won the game according to this arrangement.

However, the Warriors did not arrange the main players to continue playing as Tyronn Lue imagined in this game, which made Tyronn Lue think more.

Cole, a bastard, wouldn't really think of a way to use the bench lineup to deal with our main lineup, right?

Tyronn Lue shook his head, impossible, the gap in strength is too great, it is impossible to have any tactics to make up for it.

Looking back on the field, the first ball in the second quarter was given to the Cavaliers.

Irving held the ball and advanced to the frontcourt. Facing Livingston's defense, Irving called Mozgov for a pick-and-roll, and used the pick-and-roll to directly break into the inside.

Livingston's speed is incomparable to Irving's. The Warriors can only choose to help defend. After Irving successfully attracted the help defense, he passed the ball to Shumpert who was emptied from the outside.

Shumpert caught the ball and made a three-pointer directly.

boom--

Shumpert hit the iron with a three-pointer, the rebound was taken by Iguodala, and a rapid advance was formed.

Of course, the Cavaliers' lineup is also very mobile, and they quickly completed the work of returning to defense without giving the Warriors a chance.

Iguodala watched the Cavaliers return to defense, so he also slowed down and waited for his teammates to take their positions.

After the position was completed, Iguodala faced Shumpert's defense and directly opened a breakthrough, breaking through Shumpert's defense in one fell swoop.

Shumpert didn't dare to give up, and has been following Iguodala's side to help prevent interference.

But Shumpert's interference did not form an effective defense, and James had to go over to help defend and double-team.

Iguodala saw James coming to help defend the double-team, and passed the ball directly to Livingston who came out of the running position.

Livingston catches the ball and shoots directly.

bang - swish -

The basketball hits the backboard and bounces into the net.

28-31
The ball is switched, and it's the Cavaliers' turn to attack.

Owen came to the frontcourt with the ball again and passed the ball directly to Su Tian.

In the first three games, Su Tian basically played the role of Green in the Warriors. His top priority was assisting his teammates. He could attack by himself when necessary.

Su Tian got the ball and stood at the top of the arc, waiting for his teammates to move.

At this time, James, who was on the flank, suddenly ran back, successfully throwing off Iguodala who was following him, and Su Tian quickly passed the ball to him.

James got the ball and went straight to the basket, overwhelmed Speights' help defense, and scored a layup.

30-31
The possession of the ball was switched again, and the Warriors organized an offense again.

After coming to the frontcourt, Livingston did not pass the ball directly. Instead, after observing the scene first, he saw Iguodala open Shumpert, so he passed the ball directly.

Iguodala received the ball, feinted a three-pointer, swayed Shumpert's defense, rushed in two steps, and made a jump shot.

Swah——

30-33
The Warriors' offense still hits.

In the next few rounds, although it could be seen that the Warriors were reluctant to attack, the point difference did not widen too much.

Until the end of the second quarter, the score came to 58-55, and the Cavaliers led the Warriors by 3 points.

Although the Cavaliers have changed from being behind to leading, Tyronn Lue feels that the Cavaliers are in danger in this game.

Because the Warriors have always been in a normal rotation, they did not let the main players play in advance, and saved most of their physical strength.

For the Warriors, the indiscriminate bombing in the third quarter will become more violent.

Tyronn Lue has no better way but to keep James and Irving on the court.

However, Su Tian was very tired. In the past, Su Tian also had the experience of playing a full game, but the intensity of those regular season games was not at the same level as that of the finals.

The same cannot be said for physical exertion.

What's more, Su Tian has always been the center point of the team, the starting point of tactics, and the lubricant of the team, which consumes an astonishing amount of brain power.

Soon, the intermission ended, and the two sides returned to the scene again.

As expected, the Warriors put up five small lineups as soon as the third quarter came up.

Facing the Cavaliers who only led by 3 points, everyone began to discuss how long the Cavaliers can last.

That's right, even if the Cavaliers are leading now, everyone is still not optimistic. The five minors of the Warriors have left a deep impression on everyone.

Facing the Warriors' five small lineups, Tyronn Lue can only do his best to equip James with a corresponding lineup.

Irving, Su Tian, ​​jr Smith, James, Frye were brought out.

Soon, the game started, and the first ball was given to the Cavaliers.

Irving came to the frontcourt with the ball and gave the ball directly to James. After the ball was given out, he immediately set up a pick and roll for James.

After two consecutive pick-and-rolls, James successfully matched up with Curry.

Facing Curry, James was not polite and directly opened a breakthrough.

Naturally, Curry couldn't deal with James' rampage, so Green quickly helped defend him.

Successfully attracting Green's defense, James passed the ball directly to Frye in the bottom corner.

Frye caught the ball and made a three-pointer directly.

For a role player like Frye, regardless of whether he can score or not, he must shoot firmly.

Otherwise, the other party will only pay less attention to you, and will let you go faster next time.

boom--

Although Frye was firm, it was a pity that the three-pointer missed the shot.

Green grabbed the rebound, turned around and started fast break mode.

As soon as Green got the ball out of the three-point line, he was entangled by James. Green made a fast break and passed the ball directly to Iguodala.

Iguodala rushed forward again with the ball.

No one in the Cavaliers could keep up with Iguodala's impact this time, so Iguodala came to the frontcourt and made a layup directly.

58-57
Before the Cavaliers scored in the third quarter, the Warriors' counterattack had already arrived.

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

This time James came to the frontcourt with the ball himself, still looking for Irving to cooperate with the pick-and-roll.

But Curry is not muddled, and he does not succeed every time.

After two consecutive failures, James had to face Iguodala and chose to attack directly.

The two fought all the way to the basket. James tried to force a layup against Iguodala, but at the moment of shooting hard, James was affected by his physical strength and shot hard.

Green directly accepted the rebound, and the Warriors' fast break started again!
After passing the ball twice in a row, Curry received a pass from outside the three-point line and made a direct three-pointer.

Swah——

58-60
The Warriors' "Brave and Three Crazy" mode is officially launched!
In the next few rounds, it seemed that Tyronn Lue's concerns were verified.

Irving and James were bothered by physical strength, and their shooting percentage gradually declined. On the other hand, the Warriors, because the main force got enough rest, the offense became more violent.

After half a quarter, Tyronn Lue took Su Tian down and replaced Dellavedova, allowing James and Irving to continue fighting.

The reason why Su Tian was replaced was because Su Tian really consumed too much, and Tai Lunlu was also afraid of Su Tian's injury, after all, the ankle injury was just healed.

After the substitutions and adjustments, the Warriors' offense became sharper with the five small lineups, especially because Su Tiantian was on the field and Clay was liberated.

Su Tian's end led to Clay being released. In the next half quarter, Clay made 3 of 2 three-pointers, adding fire to the Warriors' offense.

Tyronn Lue was circling around the sidelines anxiously, but there was nothing he could do. He called a timeout in the middle, trying to curb the Warriors' offensive frenzy, but failed.

At the end of the third quarter, the score came to 75-88, and the Warriors directly led the Cavaliers by 13 points.

Of course, what is even more uncomfortable is that the Warriors' main lineup has not lost their physical strength!

On the Cavaliers side, Irving and James need to take a break for a while.

Of course, Tyronn Lue didn't want these two to go down to rest, but there was no way. Seeing that the two were too tired to talk, they had to take a break. If they didn't rest, they would be injured.

Tai Lun Lu looked back at Su Tian, ​​and the two looked at each other, and Su Tian instantly understood what Tai Lun Lu meant.

"Su, it's up to you a few minutes before the fourth quarter. Whether or not the Cavaliers have any hope is up to you!"

"...Okay, Coach."

Although Su Tian was very speechless, the chances of trying to catch up with the score in just a few minutes were too slim, but Su Tian had no better way, so he could only try.

Soon, the intermission is over and the game begins.

For the Cavaliers, Dellavedova, Su Tian, ​​jr Smith, Frye, Thompson.

For the Warriors, Livingston, Clay, Barnes, Green, Varejao.

The first possession of the fourth quarter was given to the Warriors. Livingston slowly took the ball to the frontcourt and gave the ball directly to Green.

After the ball, Livingston took Dellavedova to the low post, and Green passed the ball.

Livingston got the ball, hit the back twice in a row, followed by a shoulder shake, and shot directly.

The ball that was supposed to be foolproof was slapped by Su Tian who suddenly jumped out from the side, and the basketball went out of bounds!
