Healthy basketball, starting from eating the old Lakers F4

Chapter 144 There is also a gap among the best rookies!
Is James someone who doesn't want to score?no.

So why didn't he score?This is a question of whether to attack the base.

A player with limited shooting ability and good organizational skills, who uses breakthroughs as his main means of scoring, is subject to targeted defense. In order to win, he has no choice but to not score for the time being.

James undoubtedly wants to score, but the time is not ripe now.

So when will the time come?Naturally, we have to wait until Du En goes down.

James is self-aware. In order to win the game, James did not immediately become angry because of Du En's trash talk and desperately hit Du En with the ball.

James continued to pass to outside shooters, but during this period he would continue to try to break through with the ball to see if Dunn's defensive attention was distracted, giving him a chance to break through the basket.

Obviously, no!
When dealing with James, Duan showed the same attitude towards Kobe.

In a grudge game, naturally we can't be careless at all.

James couldn't find many opportunities and could only pass the ball to his teammates.

With the Cavaliers taking a lot of shots from the outside, the Bulls also got a lot of rebounds and a lot of opportunities to switch offense.

From the perspective of magic ball theory, when one's own team shoots 40% of three-pointers, the opponent needs 60% of two-pointers to tie.

While 40% of three-pointers are easy to do, 60% of two-pointers are extremely difficult.

Normally, the three-point team can defeat the zone defense.

But in fact, it will be very troublesome if a three-point team encounters a team that is good at defensive counterattacks, especially if this team itself also has three-point ability.

One reason is rebounding.

The lower the shooting percentage, the greater the number of rebounds produced.The more rebounds the opponent gets, the more ball rights they undoubtedly get.

The Bulls used rebounds to launch a large number of transition attacks.

Even though the Cavaliers retreated quickly after shooting the three-pointer, the Bulls youth team was also very motivated to start the fast break.

In addition, the Cavaliers replaced Big Z with power forward Robert Traylor. He has the speed to retreat, but he is not tall enough.

Robert Traylor is a short and strong forward, only a little over two meters tall. Not to mention that Tyson Chandler can easily eat cake on his head, and Josh Smith has no trouble dunking him. strength.

With Big Z out of the game, the Bulls took advantage of their height advantage and focused on playing inside.

Why are big centers like Jokic countered in the small ball era?That's because height is the most absolute and real talent in basketball.

Outside players can shoot 40% of their three-pointers in the regular season, but it is difficult for them to do so in the playoffs. Only a few superstars or even super giants can do it.

However, the inside star can crush a group of short inside players, or the small five position with the front line on the inside, and effortlessly hit a [-]-[-]% shooting rate.

In addition, it can protect more rebounds.

Today's Cavaliers give up interior defense and rebound protection just for the sake of offense.

The Bulls took this opportunity and naturally began to expand their scoring advantage.

Duan even took the initiative to slow down the pace of the game and give Tyson Chandler and others some breathing space.

Scott Skiles also cooperated very well, replacing Diaw and Antonio Davis on the court in turn to increase the thickness of the rotation lineup in advance and reduce the physical consumption of the inside.

In order to play longer tonight, Du En also took the initiative to hand over the ball and went to the bottom corner to smoke.

Anyway, replacing Chris Duhon to dribble the ball can also pass the ball inside. In addition, with Diaw, Duhon can also reduce some organizational pressure.

But as a result, James became very depressed.

James didn't take many shots in the first quarter, making 5 of 2 shots. Except for two successful transition attacks, he basically couldn't find a suitable scoring opportunity.

In order to be able to wait for work and seize the opportunity when Duan comes off the court to rest, James keeps sorting out the team's offense on the court and creates better scoring opportunities for other teammates.However, Duan played the entire first quarter and had no idea of ​​taking a break.

By the second quarter, James thought he could finally give it a try, right?
As a result, we can only defend one wave and then another.

Although the Bulls have lowered the pace of the game, they still play transition offense from time to time.

The Cavaliers took it lightly once, and after being beaten by the Bulls in transition, they had to quickly return to defense every time.

This makes James, who often gets the ball but often has to turn back and run, very depressed.

The first half is almost over and the score has not reached double figures. So where did he get his score in this game?
It’s impossible to fire endlessly at critical moments in the fourth quarter, right?

Is there a possibility that there will be no critical moments in the fourth quarter tonight, only garbage time?
However, putting it this way, it’s okay…

When he thought that tonight's opponent was Duen, who was ahead of him in terms of strength and honor in the same draft, James rejected the idea in advance.

Before meeting Duncan, James was still very idealistic and ambitious.

If you can defeat your opponents in powerful dialogues openly, climb to the top bravely, and win everything!So why choose to take other shortcuts around the mountains?
Nowadays, James is still in a stage where his enthusiasm has not yet cooled down and he wants to challenge upward based on his personal strength.

Therefore, James couldn't help but challenge Duan with the ball.

However, there are too many people inside and it is difficult to break out, so they have to choose to shoot from the outside.

With the help of the cover and mid-open shot, James's scoring data quickly increased.

But instead of narrowing, the points difference between the Bulls and Cavaliers widened further.

Realizing James' change, Du En probably guessed what James was thinking.

In order to win better, Du En also added some shots.

Suddenly, the situation on the court suddenly changed, and team basketball suddenly turned into a star battle between Du En and James.

Looking at the scoreboard on the sidelines, the score difference was getting wider and wider. Duen originally wanted to taunt James: "Do you have the strength to compete with Duen for three points?"

Also because the third quarter is about to be clocked in, I won’t say any more.

As a part-time worker, being able to leave work early is definitely not a bad thing.

Now that James is pissed off, what should he do if he can't swallow this breath, dares to fight hard in the fourth quarter, and becomes braver as he fights?
Once James leads the team to catch up with the point difference, will Duan not be allowed to come back to wipe his ass?

Isn't that just looking for trouble, working overtime for yourself when your brain is distracted, and asking for trouble?
There's no need, just get a 20+ double-double tonight, wouldn't it be nice to clock in the third quarter?

Therefore, when Duan completed the KPI and played 33 minutes in the three quarters, scoring 21 points, 6 rebounds and 10 assists, Duan took the initiative to foul James and then left the game without saying a word.

Although Du En didn't say anything, James knew it very well.

Can we still win tonight?Very good!It has ended!
Du En came off the field to rest, and he was given 3 minutes to show his strength.

If he still wants to play again in the fourth quarter, then Duan, who rested early, may also return to the court, making him even more embarrassed.

Looking at Du En's back, James bit his braces and tightened his hair tie. He didn't have much time left...

98 to 83. Due to the garbage time in the fourth quarter, neither team's score tonight was too high.

It is worth mentioning that although the Bulls, led by Duan, defeated the Cavaliers by 15 points in an away game.

But James, the head coach of the Cavaliers, scored 26 points, 7 rebounds and 7 assists. In terms of scoring alone, he was slightly better than Duan.

However, the vast majority of fans are sharp-eyed.

After the game, many people posted comments on the Internet to ridicule - there is still a gap in the best rookie!
