NBA Old Age Star System

Chapter 196 The Knight's Key to Victory!
On the second day after the competition, Su Tian slept at home all morning before waking up.

The intensity of the finals is indeed great. Even Su Tian, ​​who has the badge of the king of the last quarter, consumes so much. One can imagine how exhausted Owen and James are.

On the afternoon of June 6, Su Tian came to the arena for normal training.

At this time in the arena, James and Irving had arrived ahead of schedule.

Seeing Su Tian coming over, they continued their training after greeting each other.

After a while, Tyronnlu came over with Love.

"Kevin! How's it going? Are you alright buddy! Are you ready to play?" James saw Love coming back, and instantly stepped forward to greet him with a hug.

"LeBron, haha ​​I'm fine, I can play in the next game!" Love responded with a smile.

"Coach, is this true? Kevin can play now?" Su Tian asked quickly.

If Love can come back, it will not only help the team, but also help Su Tian personally.

"Yes, Kevin can play, but the playing time is stipulated, and he can only play 10 minutes, so Kevin is arranged to play on the bench." Tyronn Lue said.

"That's great, as long as you can play! Man, come on, try to get back this year's championship trophy!" James said with a smile while patting Love on the back.

Su Tian is also very happy that Love can return. In this way, the overall strength of the team will increase, and the chances of winning the championship will also be greatly improved.

June 6, Quicken Loans Arena.

The fourth game of the finals is about to start, and before the game, the news of Love's play has been officially announced by the Cavaliers, and the morale of the Cavaliers fans is also boosted by this!
Soon, with the referee's whistle, players from both sides entered the field.

The Cavaliers lineup is Irving, Su Tian, ​​James, Richard Jefferson, Thompson.

The Warriors maintained the regular starting lineup, and all the substitutes such as Livingston and Iguodala sat off the court.

With the opening jump ball, the Warriors grabbed the initiative, and Curry advanced with the ball. After coming to the frontcourt, he passed the ball directly to Green.

Jefferson saw Green holding the ball and didn't step forward to defend, so Green directly shot a three-pointer.

Regardless of whether he gets in or not, Green is really daring to make a move now.

boom--

It's a pity that Green missed a shot at the start and Thompson took the rebound.

Irving took the ball, advanced the ball to the frontcourt, and passed the ball directly to James.

Facing Barnes' defense, James directly started a breakthrough.

The strategic deployment of this game has basically not changed much from the previous game, the only difference is the return of Love.

James easily broke through Barnes' defense and wanted to go to the basket with the ball, but was double-teamed by the Warriors, so James quickly passed the ball to Su Tian who ran out of space.

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

Swah——

3-0
Although the first ball belonged to the Warriors, the first goal came from Su Tian of the Cavaliers.

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

Curry came to the frontcourt with the ball. Facing Irving's defense, Curry did not call for a pick-and-roll, but directly started dribbling the ball in an attempt to mobilize Irving's defensive focus.

After consecutive dribbles, Curry suddenly broke out and attacked from Irving's right side.

Seeing that Curry was about to enter the penalty area with the ball, James ran to help defend and let go of Barnes.

Curry also sensed James' movement, so he passed the ball directly to Barnes in the bottom corner.

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

Swah——

Barnes made his first three-pointer.

Visible to the naked eye, after hitting the first three-pointer, Barnes let out a long breath.

3-3
Seeing Barnes like this, James also knew that Barnes was extremely unconfident in himself, so he also made clear the next strategic deployment.

In the next few rounds, James kept emptying Barnes and ran to help defend others, but Barnes failed to make another three-pointer in a row.

Halfway through the first quarter, the Warriors were 6 points behind the Cavaliers because of Barnes.

So Cole took advantage of the timeout to replace Barnes and take Iguodala ahead of schedule.

Seeing Iguodala on the court, James couldn't continue to short, but Tyronn Lue also took the opportunity to get Love, which strengthened the team's offense.

Soon, the first quarter ended and the score came to 28-26. The Cavaliers still led the Warriors by 2 points. The point difference was small, but at least it was a good sign.

In the second quarter, the Warriors began to rotate normally regardless of the Cavaliers.

On the Cavaliers side, Irving and James continued to play, wanting to take the opportunity to widen the point difference.

The first ball in the second quarter was given to the Cavaliers. Irving took the ball to the frontcourt and passed the ball directly to James.

James got the ball, faced Iguodala, called Love for a pick-and-roll, and used the pick-and-roll to start a breakthrough.

James' breakthrough attracted Iguodala and Green's double-team, so James broke through and gave Love the ball.

Love catches the ball and shoots a three-pointer directly.

Swah——

Love made a direct three-pointer.

31-26
Love maintained a good state, and Green also gave up the strategy of letting Love go.

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

Livingston came to the frontcourt with the ball. Facing Irving, he did not choose to attack with the ball himself, but passed the ball to Green.

Green got the ball, while observing his teammates' running positions, while thinking about how to play the ball.

Suddenly Green hit the ground and passed the ball to Iguodala who made an air cut, but James defended in time, and Iguodala passed the ball to Clay in the bottom corner again.

Clay made a direct three-pointer against Su Tian.

bang - swish -

It has to be said that Clay had a lot of luck in this ball. The basketball bounced on the rim and fell into the net.

31-29
Evenly matched with the Warriors in the second quarter, this is not the scenario Tylen Lue wants.

In Tyronn Lue's vision, it should be that the Cavaliers have been pressing the Warriors to play in the second quarter, but now it seems that the two sides have no obvious advantages.

Tyronn Lue was very irritable, pacing on the sidelines, and he didn't seem to be in a good mood.

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

James came to the frontcourt with the ball by himself. Of course, James knew what Tyronn Lue wanted, so he took the ball and rushed directly, pushing Iguodala all the way to the basket.

Facing Clay's help defense, although James had no room to pass the ball, he pushed hard to open the help defense and forced a layup.

33-29
Turning around, Green missed a three-pointer, James took off the rebound and started a fast break directly.

While James was on the fast break with the ball, he passed the ball to Irving who was keeping up with him, and Irving passed the ball again to Su Tian, ​​who was already standing outside the three-point line.

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

Swah——

36-29
Su Tian's three-pointer is still accurate, and the point difference is gradually widening.

But when James looked at the Warriors' bench, he found that Cole didn't have much emotional fluctuations.

Obviously, in Cole's eyes, these points are within his expectations.

After the second and a half quarters passed, the point difference has reached double digits. In order to ensure that Tyronn Lue can deal with the five small players in the third quarter, he chose to replace James and Irving and Love to rest in advance.

The lineup on the field became Dellavedova, Su Tian, ​​JR Smith, Frye, and Mozgov.

Although Su Tian leads a group of substitutes, the Warriors are also a substitute lineup. It is still a task that Su Tian can accomplish if he wants to maintain a double-digit point difference.

After the lineup was changed, Su Tian directly took over the team's possession of the ball, and started a two-person pick-and-roll with Frye.

Continuous passing assists teammates, so that the Warriors dare not double-team Su Tian.

After no longer double-teaming, Barbosa in the Warriors' bench lineup was not Su Tian's opponent at all, and was forced by Su Tian for two consecutive layups.

Reluctantly, he had to switch defenses with Livingston and let Livingston defend Su Tian.

Livingston does have a height advantage compared to Barbosa, but it is still not enough to face Su Tian.

At this time, Cole stood up unconsciously, walked to the sidelines, frowning.

When James and Irving were both on the court, Cole was calm and composed, but when the two left the court and Su Tian took over the team, Cole's mood changed so much.

This can't help but make the audience watching the live broadcast on the Internet feel a little interesting.

"Su Tian beat Cole to his feet? Is Su Tian so difficult?"

"I said it long ago! Su Tiancai has real thighs!"

"Don't talk nonsense if you don't understand the game, it will easily expose your quality."

"In fact, the reason why Cole has changed so much is not because Su Tian is so difficult to deal with, but because Irving and James are not on the court, but the Cavaliers maintain the point difference and even continue to widen!"

"It's not Su Tian that Cole is afraid of! It's James and Irving who are resting!"

"Is it like this? I thought it was because of sitting for a long time, hemorrhoids..."

"..."

Soon, the second quarter ended. Under the leadership of Su Tian, ​​the Cavaliers not only kept the point difference, but the point difference was still widening.

At the end of the first half, the score came to 63-48, and the Cavaliers temporarily led the Warriors by 15 points.

Leading by 15 points is naturally worth celebrating, but whether the Warriors can stop the indiscriminate bombing in the third quarter will determine the final direction of the game.

During the halftime break, Tyronnlue made another adjustment and took out all the main lineup except Su Tian to deal with the Warriors' five minors.

Owen, jr Smith, James, Love, Thompson.

Soon, the intermission ended and the third quarter began.

The Warriors also brought up five small lineups as everyone expected.

To be honest, with a 15-point difference, it is not necessarily safe to face the Warriors' fifth junior, and this is not the full version of the fifth junior.

The real and complete version of the five minors depends on where Durant will go this summer.

If Durant really takes this step, then the complete version of Wu Xiao, Yu Yuyong will be available!
Back on the court, the first ball was given to the Cavaliers in the third quarter.

Irving slowly advances with the ball. Facing the five small lineups, don't pull the rhythm too fast, that is the favorite rhythm of the five small teams.

After coming to the frontcourt, Irving passed the ball directly to James.

James got the ball, faced Iguodala, and used Love's pick-and-roll to directly break through.

In an instant, Iguodala and Barnes both went towards James, which was to double-team James resolutely as soon as they came up.

So James passed the ball directly to Love who was emptied at the top of the arc, and Love received the ball and made a three-pointer.

boom--

It's a pity that Love doesn't feel very good, playing basketball with iron.

Green took the lead in grabbing the rebound and made a direct long pass to Curry who was running ahead.

Curry took the ball and went straight to the frontcourt, followed by Irving. Although Irving has not caught up, this distance is also very dangerous. If you force a layup, the hit rate is not guaranteed.

So Curry saw the time and passed the ball directly to Clay who was keeping up.

When Clay received the ball, there was a smooth road ahead, and he directly shot a three-pointer.

Swah——

Clay made a direct three-pointer.

63-51
The Warriors' fast break came so fast that many fans hadn't even reacted, and the Warriors had already shot.

The possession of the ball was changed, and it was the Cavaliers' turn to attack. Irving took the ball and came to the frontcourt again, still giving the ball to James.

But this time James and Irving cooperated, and after the quick pick-and-roll tactics, Curry was forced to face James again.

As a result, the brutal scene was staged again, James easily smashed through Curry's defense, and went straight to the basket with the ball.

Faced with this situation, the Warriors can only choose to let go of one of the Cavaliers and defend James.

So Green gave up Thompson and came for James.

James saw that Green came over to help defend, and passed the ball directly to Thompson, who was cutting to the basket.

Thompson looked at the ball, jumped up to catch it, and dunked with both hands!
James and Thompson's air connection!

65-51
If there is a point difference, don't panic. As long as the Cavaliers are still scoring normally, Tyronn Lue will not panic.

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

Curry came to the frontcourt with the ball, passed the ball directly to Green, and took Irving to run.

Green stood at the top of the arc with the ball, observing his teammates' running positions.

After consecutive tactical moves, Clay made an air cut opportunity, and Green quickly passed the ball to it.

Clay caught the ball and went straight to the basket, James assisted in defense, and Clay passed the ball to Iguodala again.

Iguodala made a three-pointer directly.

Originally, Love wanted to make up the defense, but the speed was too slow, and before he had time to pounce, Iguodala had already shot.

Swah——

Iguodala also hit a three-pointer!

65-54
The possession of the ball was switched again. When the ball was served, James found Love and said something in Love's ear. The specific content is unknown.

Irving came to the frontcourt with the ball again, and James still received the ball.

But this time before he had time to launch a tactic, Irving turned around quickly and shook off Curry, turned his head and rushed to the basket.

James saw that this was a good opportunity, so he passed the ball quickly.

Irving caught the ball and made a quick layup.

67-54
This seemingly stolen goal actually reflects that Irving's physical coordination and speed are really excellent.

It was the Warriors' turn to attack again. This time, it was the same as last time. Green held the ball at the top of the arc, and the others ran wildly.

This time it was Curry who had the chance, Green passed the ball, and Curry took the ball to the basket, but just when Curry was about to enter the penalty area, Love quickly assisted in the defense.

Seeing that Love was so resolute in defending, Curry also passed the ball directly to Barnes who was emptied.

Barnes hesitated when he received the ball, but he hesitated for only a second before he dared not hesitate again, so he directly shot a three-pointer.

boom--

The basketball hit the rim hard as James imagined.

The rebound was directly accepted by James and he started a fast break. Of course, the Warriors retreated very quickly and the fast break failed.

However, the key to the knight's victory has been found!
While dribbling, James looked at the anxious Barnes of the Warriors.
