NBA Old Age Star System

Chapter 32 The Deal Comes
2015年1月3日，骑士91-87战胜黄蜂。

James, Varejao and Su Tian did not play in this game.Varejao and Su Tian are on normal rotations, while James has not recovered from his injury and needs to continue to rest.

Waiters played 34 minutes and scored 17 points, 5 rebounds and 2 assists.

Seeing that Waiters' playing time has increased significantly, anyone who cares will know that this is an almost deal.

On January 1, the Cavaliers played against the Mavericks.

James still didn't play, and the Mavericks had a familiar figure in the formation.

Rajon Rondo.

The two teams fought to the last moment of this battle. In the last 5 minutes of the fourth quarter, the two teams were 90-95, and the Mavericks led by 5 points.

However, there were some problems with the tactical coordination in the Cavaliers, and the disadvantages of James' injury began to emerge.

Whether it is Irving or Love, both of them lack the aura of making a final decision.

But Su Tian became a thigh in a critical moment.

Su Tian saw that Owen and Love were struggling, so he did his part and started attacking with the ball.

Su Tian played a superstar performance in the face of Monta Ellis, frequently breaking through to form an offensive threat.

Just like a real Wade, he is still a Wade with three points.

But Tyson Chandler at the basket was really tough enough to interfere with Su Tian's layup several times.

On the side of the Mavericks, Su Tian locked Ellis, but Nowitzki seemed to be rejuvenated, and the golden rooster hit consecutively independently.

In the last 2 minutes, the two teams were 101-98, and the Mavericks led by 3 points.

Su Tian holds the ball and observes from outside the three-point line, and Owen consciously pulls to the bottom corner.

Because of Rondo's existence, Irving's usual sharp breakthrough failed this time and he struggled quite a bit.

Love's offensive performance was good, but he couldn't prevent the old Nowitzki. At least in this game, Love was blown up.

Su Tian continued to play singles against Ellis with the ball. Ellis knew he couldn't defend himself, so he called Rondo for help.

After Rondo assisted in defending, Irving was emptied. Although Irving struggled in this game, it would be too much not to give such an open opportunity.

Su Tian passed the ball, Owen adjusted after receiving the ball, and made a three-pointer.

When Irving made the last shot, Rondo had already arrived. Although it seemed that there was no interference, it gave Owen great psychological pressure.

boom--

Owen hit the iron with a three-pointer and Chandler grabbed a rebound.

The Mavericks attacked, Nowitzki caught the ball with his back again, turned around, raised his leg, and shot, all in one go, and made a shot.

103-98, the Cavaliers ran out of time.

This time Irving held the ball and wanted to break through the penalty area and hit a strong one, but after Irving tried his best to break through Rondo, there was still a wall waiting for him behind him, Tyson Chandler.

Irving jumped to join the ball, turned in the air, and twisted his waist for a layup.

Although Chandler did not form a block, he strongly interfered with Irving's shot.

Irving missed a layup, and at the same time, Nowitzki made another one, and the Cavaliers gave up resistance.

The Mavericks defeated the Cavaliers 105-98.

Irving scored 6 points, 2 rebounds and 3 assists, and shot 22.2% from the field. The offense was very struggling.

Su Tian scored 31 points, 5 rebounds and 11 assists, scoring the first double-double of his career.Also the first 30 plus.

As a rookie, there is no doubt that this kind of data is phenomenal, especially among the 31 points, 15 points were scored in the last quarter.It also deepened the impression of fans and media.

There is no doubt that the biggest contributor to the Mavericks is Nowitzki. There is still oil in this German tank, and there is a lot of it.

In the fourth quarter, Su Tian looked at Nowitzki, who was independent of the golden rooster, and thought in his heart that he wondered if the system could draw him.

Obviously, Su Tian was also envious of this kind of skill.

Just when Su Tian and the others had just finished beating the Mavericks, the deal came!
On January 2015, 1, the Cleveland Cavaliers reached a three-way deal with the Knicks and the Thunder, and JR Smith joined the Cavaliers!
Iman Shumpert also came with Smith, and Waiters was sent to the Thunder.

The man Su Tian was worried about at the beginning of the new season, here he is.

However, the Cavaliers' management hadn't stopped. Two days later, news of another transaction broke out.

On January 2015, 1, the Cleveland Cavaliers officially announced that they would get Timofey Mozgov and a 8 second-round pick from the Nuggets with two first-round picks and a trade exception.

The Cavaliers brought Mozgov, and the Cavaliers' inside rebounds are guaranteed.

As for how much James contributed in these two transactions, it is not known.

Although the trade has happened, the players will not come over immediately.

Smith came to the team to report on the 8th. After training with the team, he participated in the game between the Cavaliers and the Rockets.

But what Su Tian was worried about did not appear. Su Tian still served as the starter, and Smith was responsible for grabbing points from the bench.

Su Tian, ​​on the other hand, returned to the way he played at the beginning of the season, and changed to the No. [-] position during the substitute period.

Therefore, although Su Tian's playing time has decreased, it has not decreased too much.

Whose time is that reduced, yes, Dellavedova's.

Dellavedova: So I'm the only one who's wronged?

Mozgov followed suit, reaching Cleveland on the 9th.

And the first game Mozgov came to was the focus of the battle.

Cleveland Cavaliers vs. Golden State Warriors.

On January 1, the Cavaliers visited Oracle Arena.

This battle is a difficult battle, not only because of the Warriors, but because James is still not good.

James continued the truce.

The Cavaliers without James are somewhat powerless against the Warriors at this time.

Due to James' injury, there has been no better candidate for the third position, and the arrival of JR Smith can temporarily replace the third position.

The original backup at the [-], James Jones, was a corner shooter who almost never handled the ball or attacked the rim.Mike Miller sometimes backs up the [-], but he's also a shooter.

Smith was only able to push for a while, and he couldn't bear it if he kept pushing.

With a whistle, the game started.

Cavaliers play: Irving, Su Tian, ​​JR Smith, Love, Mozgov.

Warriors play: Curry, Thompson, Barnes, Green, Bodogte.

With the opening jump ball, Mozgov grabbed the initiative.

James' injury also ignited Irving's spirit of leading the team.

Irving first played a pick-and-roll with Love, and used Love's cover to break through to the inside.

JR and Su Tian ran back and forth on the flanks to drive the defense.

The Warriors switched defenses very quickly. Irving failed to form an effective offense. He made a forced shot at the basket and shot hard.

The Warriors attacked, Curry pushed the ball to the frontcourt, handed the ball to Green, and then went in to run.

Green held the ball at the top of the arc and dealt the cards. At this time, Green still had a three-point hand, and Love dared not let it go.

Under Su Tian's defense, Thompson didn't have a chance to come out, but Thompson turned around to cover and blocked Curry's chance.

Green passed the ball quickly at the top of the arc, and Curry received the ball from outside the three-point line and shot it quickly, a typical Curry-style push.

Swish——, three points into the net.

Curry bouncing back to the defense, the Cavaliers' side Irving's face is not very good, just now there is a problem with Irving's defense, which gave Curry a chance.

But is Owen a person who is easy to admit defeat?
Irving immediately prepared to play Curry singles to save face.

In terms of one-on-one, Curry is not Irving's opponent, but Curry can still take a good defensive position without losing his position.

When Irving and Curry entangled all the way to the basket, Irving combined the ball and wanted to make a layup.

The Warriors inside Bogout came to help defend, Owen turned around deftly, and shot high.

bang - swish -

The ball successfully entered the net, and Irving succeeded in singles.

Cavaliers 2-3 Warriors, the real game has just begun.
