NBA Old Age Star System

Chapter 88 Decisive Battle Moment
In the next few rounds, the two sides still fought back and forth.

Mainly Horford's efforts.

Horford saw Schroeder being bullied by the Cavaliers guard duo, and he also shouldered his own responsibility.

Keep holding the ball in a high position, use your omnipotence, or shoot or pass or burst.

It can be regarded as barely keeping up with the offensive firepower of the Cavaliers' backcourt combination.

At the end of the second quarter, the Cavaliers temporarily led by 51 points 49-2.

In the second quarter, the Cavaliers played 30-25 in a single quarter in the backcourt, scoring 5 points more than the Eagles.

At halftime, Budenholzer frantically pulled his hair out in the locker room.

It was hard to think of a way to keep up with James in the first quarter, but in the second quarter, a two-gun combination in the backcourt was formed.

Budenholzer looked at Horford who was out of breath, and sighed silently in his heart.

Forget it in the third quarter, let Horford take a rest.

Budenholzer approached Millsap.

"Paul, how are you? Can you still play in the third quarter?"

"No problem, coach, I can." Millsap said while wiping the sweat off his body.

"Okay, then in the third quarter we will focus on Teague and Paul, and the others will cooperate tactically."

Speaking of which, Budenholzer took out the tactical board and began to explain the tactics.

The Cavaliers' locker room is no longer as peaceful as it used to be.

Tyronn Lue is also very distressed, the Cavaliers always widen the gap too much, so that James can't rest too much.

Sure enough, are you still going to force me to use a tactic that I regard as a forbidden technique?

"LeBron, you're going to play the full game for the next half."

Tyronn Lue looked at James aside.

"No problem coach, I rested a lot in the second quarter. It's okay to play the second half."

James responded.

"Okay LeBron, if this is the case, then we'll do this and then that..."

Tyronn Lue also took out the tactical board and began to explain his tactics.

Soon, the halftime break ended and the two sides returned to the court.

Su Tian sat off the court, and Irving followed James and Love on the court.

However, Irving also paddled up and served as a dribbling guard.

While paddling, regain your strength.

The Cavaliers use James as the main offensive point, and Love as the secondary offensive point.

On the Hawks side, Teague and Millsap cooperated with each other and played a two-person pick-and-roll.

But Teague and Millsap are still a little short after all.

Whether it's Carroll or Korver on the Eagles' side, they can't stop the rushing and energetic James.

Millsap can stand up, but one is that Millsap is slower than James, and the other is that Millsap is going to defend James, so who will defend Love?
Carol?Korver?Or find an unknown substitute on the bench?
It doesn't seem right.

Therefore, at the end of the third quarter, the Cavaliers had already led the Eagles by 86 points 76-10.

Successfully opened up a double-digit point difference with the Eagles.

And Millsap, who has been struggling to support, is obviously exhausted, slumped on the bench off the court.

"Okay, Paul, you take a break. In the fourth quarter, we will shift our focus outward, speed up the offensive transition, and grab points!"

Budenholzer said viciously.

The Eagles have fallen behind 0-2 by a big score. If they lose again, it will be 3-0.
Therefore, this match must not be lost, let's take a gamble.

"However, pay attention to speeding up the offensive transition, not to let you shoot randomly and choose to break through as much as possible. Even if you don't enter, you will still cause damage!"

Knight here.

"Su, let me fight in the first few rounds of the fourth quarter, I believe in you!"

Tai Lunlu looked at Su Tian with piercing eyes.

"No problem, coach, make sure to complete the task."

"Okay, LeBron, don't be in a hurry here, wait until the fourth quarter adjusts the possession of the ball and then return to your side."

"Good coach."

In fact, the head coaches of both sides did not arrange a lot of things, and the intermission was over.

For the Cavaliers, Su Tian plays the first position and jr the second position.

Irving played all the first three quarters today, so he needs to take a rest, otherwise he will be in danger of injury.

The first possession of the fourth quarter belonged to the Eagles.

Teague got the ball and quickly advanced to the frontcourt.

Seeing the eagle's uncharacteristically faster speed, Su Tian knew that the eagle wanted to chase points.

However, if you want to chase points, you have to pass my level first.

Su Tian immediately went up to meet him, while entangled in death, while trying to take out the ball, causing enough interference.

The state of Su Tian in the fourth quarter is obviously different from the first three quarters.

Teague was caught off guard by Su Tian's fierce defense.

I had to stabilize the ball first and stabilize the rhythm.

The Eagles almost failed in the first round.

Horford mentioned the high position and responded to Teague.

Teague quickly sent the ball to Horford.

Take Su Tian to start running around the field.

After Horford got the ball, he was not in a hurry to attack by himself, but first observed the formation.

Suddenly a ground-hitting pass.

Thompson, who was defending Horford, was swayed by Horford's fake pass.

Turn to look for the ball.

Upon seeing this, Horford directly shot two points.

And at the same time Horford shot, a big hand appeared in front of Horford.

The fingertips were so close to Horford's eyes, it felt like they were poking in.

Horford was inevitably affected, the shot missed and Love got the rebound.

After Horford took the shot, he went to see who was so unprofessional.

At first glance, it was indeed Su Tian.

But Su Tian of the chicken thief had already run far away at this time, and ran to the front court, trying to play a fast break.

But it still didn't work out.

Su Tian's fast break was stopped by Teague.

But it doesn't matter, the Cavaliers are ahead, and they can play steadily.

Su Tian turned around to receive the pass and faced Teague.

Start a tough breakthrough directly.

In the fourth quarter, Su Tian, ​​who started the king of the last quarter mode, can still play a few tough shots against a defender like Teague who is shorter than him.

I saw Su Tian coming to the basket while fighting against him.

Su Tianqiang, who came to the basket, took a European step and prepared for a layup.

Su Tian, ​​who was in full condition, successfully scored a layup with the help of other finishing badges that were still on under the basket.

88-76, the Cavaliers led by 12 points.

It's the Eagles' turn to attack.

Teague quickly advanced to the frontcourt with the ball and encountered Su Tian's death entanglement.

Like a replica of the previous round, Teague stabilized the ball and sent the ball to Horford in the high position.

Teague was also very puzzled, why this kid was so difficult to deal with.

Isn't he tired?

He was sweating too.

Can't figure it out can't figure it out.

Although Teague couldn't figure it out, he was still running.

The high-post Horford is still a touch pass this time.

Thompson said, look down on me too much, I won't be cheated twice!

However, Thompson discovered that this time it was true!
The Eagles created an air-cut opportunity for Korver by constantly running.

Korver made an empty cut and made a layup.

88-78, the point difference returned to 10 points again.

Horford saw that Korver made a successful hit, and quickly called his teammates back to defense.

Seeing the eagle's morale seems to be raised again.

Su Tian knew that the decisive battle might be brought forward.
