When pride still matters

Chapter 278 Fry Hell

In front of the Bucks, the Cavaliers' offense and defense are not even systems.

Although Mike Brown is a coach from the Spurs, he neither learned how to manage a team under Popovich, nor did he understand the most basic coaching methods.

Popovich will use Duncan like an animal, while Coach Baker has a big animal like James, but he is still thinking about how to reduce his pressure.

Coach Bread did something that would-be James critics routinely recommend: get James to play off the ball more.

But the Cavaliers' problem cannot be solved by James playing without the ball.

The game plan restricted James from exerting his full strength, and the system layout was also in a mess. After halftime, there was no formed cooperation. In positional battles, there were only basic pick-and-roll assists to break points and singles, and then Ilgauskas' inside line. Post-up singles in key positions, and when the turnover is really difficult, let James take the ball and challenge one-on-one.

On the other hand, the Bucks, after several years of running in, the 5 OUT and X offense surrounding Yu Fei have become extremely mature.

Against the Cavaliers, the Bucks didn't even come up with a 5 OUT lineup, nor did they play an X offense. They only assigned Yu Fei with a lineup of three outside and one inside. He could play one-on-ones, pick-and-rolls, and counterattacks, and they took the lead after halftime. The Cavaliers scored 18 points.

After Yu Fei scored 9 points in a row in the first quarter, the offensive focus turned to instigating his teammates. At halftime, he had 19 points, 7 rebounds and 7 assists, which was close to a triple-double.

The Bucks' two new additions have performed well. Although Raja Bell was a little embarrassed when defending James, he is generally an elite-level outside defender and has a reassuring three-point shooting rate on the offensive end. Kwame ·Brown basically fulfilled the expectations. He showed everything the Bucks expected from him.

Basket protection, one-on-one defense, blocking, and the tacit understanding of Yu Fei's rapid rebuilding, etc. Facing a star center like Big Z, Brown has disadvantages, but as the fifth position in a small ball lineup, he is blameless. .

In the second quarter, the Bucks rotated Mutombo and Pachulia to play five, and slowly switched from Granger to Haslem and Horry at the fourth position.

A strong starting lineup, a solid bench and dynamic young blood give the Bucks a new luster.

"I really don't want to hear you comparing LeBron to Frye anymore." George Karl complained during the midfield interview. "You have all seen, whether it is personal offensive development or instigating the team, LeBron is There is still a big gap between Frye and Frye. Such a comparison is unfair to him. Frye is the best player in the league, and LeBron is learning how to become a star. You should be more pragmatic. I think LeBron is the best player. Brown's comparison is Denver's Carmelo Anthony. Carmelo has brought the Nuggets into the playoffs for two consecutive years. This is something LeBron has not done so far. Let's set this goal first."

Karl instinctively hated someone comparing James to Yu Fei.

Just like Phil Jackson also hates other people comparing young people to Jordan.

In their opinion, there is no comparison at all.

Karl's filter is heavier because his coaching career reached its peak under the leadership of Yu Fei. Even if someone said in front of him that Yu Fei is the best player in history, he would nod in agreement.

But recently, for some unknown reason, the league always likes to tie it to Feilai's marketing of James' future. This not only creates trouble for the parties involved, but is also an excessively heavy burden for James.

The standards set by Yu Fei are too high. Within his rookie contract, he led the team to win two championships and entered the Eastern Conference finals three times. How can James catch up? Needless to say, there is a big gap in the technical maturity between the two at the same time. The Cavaliers' configuration also limits James' current team leadership limit.

Karl entered the locker room and found that Yu Fei was using his tactical board to explain the mistakes in the first half to Kevin Martin.

"If you had chosen to pull to the left instead of following up to the basket, the space would not have been blocked." Yu Fei said, "I really don't understand why you like to play under the basket so much."

After adapting to the rhythm of the game, Martin's toughness broke many people's impression of him.

He is the kind of player who is thin but dares to charge inside.

"I'll pull away next time," Martin replied.

When Yu Fei saw Karl coming, he put down his tactical board and sat back in his seat.

Although there is still the second half, Karl has already won by default in his heart. The Cavaliers, who did not use James correctly and lacked the lower limit of system support, cannot be an opponent of the Bucks.

"We are in good shape tonight. As long as we maintain the rhythm of the first half, we will definitely win the game." Karl said, "So, I will try to use more rotations, and everyone who is on the active list must be ready to play. .”

In the second half, the Bucks' starting lineup became Yu Fei, Barry, Bell, Horry, and Mutombo.

It's also three outside and one inside, but two of these three outside and inside shot 40% from three-point range last season.

After the game started, no matter whether Yu Fei asked Barry to play a pick-and-roll or Bell to play a pick-and-roll, the Cavaliers were unable to defend.

The score expanded rapidly.

Halfway through the third quarter, when the point difference reached 24 points, the numbers on the scoreboard lost their meaning.

The Cavaliers are destined to have a bad start.

This is the return announcement of the Bucks team that swept the league and won two consecutive championships.

Yu Fei played extremely excitedly, and he had to do some tricks when passing the ball. When attacking, he had to step back and shoot long distance, or break through to the basket and dunk.

This is James' kingdom.

But now, the kingdom has fallen, and Yu Fei will win if he attacks.

The game is not over yet, and James' relatives and friends can no longer stand it.

"Why would Fry do this?"

When the score difference exceeded 30 points, Maverick Carter could no longer stand it.

James's mother and lovers seemed at a loss, but when Rich Paul looked at the stands not far away and the group of Nike marketers who were eager to find a place to hide themselves, he knew that the impact of this game would be greater than imagined. Be big.

James is not as good as Yu Fei now, and everyone expects this.

But if the gap is too obvious, it will undoubtedly create a gap.

Originally, everyone thought that James could almost touch the corner of Yu Fei's clothes, but now it seems that he might just be able to barely see his back.

"Bron always said that Fry was his friend," Paul said solemnly, "but a true friend wouldn't embarrass him on a night like this."

James' relatives and friends were outraged, but Yu Fei took the initiative to take a rest with eight minutes left in the fourth quarter.

At this time, the Cavaliers were already 35 points behind the Bucks.

Yu Fei changed into his appearance uniform, which was equivalent to announcing that he would not appear again.     However, he has left enough shadows on the knights.

His performance of 32 points, 40 rebounds and 13 assists in 11 minutes was also amazing.

James played a few more minutes, leaving 30 points, 6 rebounds and 6 assists, and took a rest five minutes before the end of the game.

"It's such a harsh attack. It won't be easy to talk when we meet later, right?"

Carl said jokingly to Fei.

Yu Fei only played 32 minutes. As the absolute core of the Bucks, as long as he is on the court, his performance determines the overall performance of the Bucks. Once he performs well, the Bucks will inevitably be unstoppable, and his The data will also be gorgeous.

This is the background of a big core with the ball that takes everything.

He had some performance moments in the third quarter, but they were just a natural move when he got high. No one expected that the Cavaliers, who ranked tenth in the league in ESPN's season preview, would be so unbeatable.

What made it even more difficult for Yu Fei was that in the garbage time that followed, several Bucks players played like killers.

Pachulia and Haslem are on the inside, and Salim Stoudemire, Trevor Ariza and Kevin Martin are on the outside.

Stoudemire can shoot and pass well, Martin becomes an offensive father and must score points with every attack. Ariza locks down the Cavaliers' outside line, and Haslem and Pachulia's inside strength is really good for garbage time. Too high.

At the end of the game, Yu Fei looked at the score.

121 is better than 76

It’s really hard to talk now.

All the good wishes of the 4 Cavaliers for the new season were shattered in this game.

A difference of 45 points.

Do these two teams have a grudge? Do you use your trash time to kill?

"Boss, do you think I'm doing well these few minutes?"

Garbage-time slasher Kevin Martin asked excitedly.

Yu Feipi said with a smile: "Keep working hard."

Yu Fei was about to say a few words to Xiao Zhan, but as soon as the game was over, James disappeared.

In subsequent on-site interviews, ABC reporters inevitably mentioned Martin's performance.

"You guys have been controversial since the Bucks drafted Kevin Martin. Do you think Kevin's performance tonight gave you some relief?"

The killing was so brutal that one breath was not enough, so he had to take two breaths.

Yu Feipi said with a smile: "I think so."

"Are you proud of him?"

Yu Fei smiled: "I'm super proud of him."

※※※

"I don't care about the outcome of a game."

James gave a rational answer to the question of a slow start to the season.

The reporters in the media room could tell that this James was not the person they usually saw.

In normal times, James can talk to anyone as if he is actually 101 years old instead of 21. He understands everything in the world.

But today, he didn't have such interest.

"Does playing against Fry Yu make you feel pressured?"

James' expression changed, "I don't know what you want to say."

"As Frye's little brother, does it feel stressful for you to face your big brother?"

Normally, when someone calls him Frye's little brother, James would just laugh it off, but after such a big defeat, the sound of the word "little brother" has completely changed.

James does not have an older brother, but he has seen many younger brothers who have older brothers. They are always bullied, beaten and scolded by their older brothers, and they are completely unable to resist, just like tonight's game.

"I'm not stressed."

“What do you think of Frye Yu’s big triple-double?”

"He had a great game."

"What do you think are your shortcomings compared to Fry?"

The expectation of becoming Jordan, or even surpassing Jordan, has been left behind by the world. James is now facing a hell named Frye Yu.

No matter what he did, there was no way he could escape this hell.

James suspected that even if he destroyed the world one day, a reporter would climb out of the ruins and ask him: "Fry Yu can destroy the world in less time. What do you think you have to do to make up for this gap?" ?”

Whenever Frye Hell appears, a strange emotion will appear in LeBron James' heart. He has never felt this way before, but this feeling is real and comes from the heart. , something he usually didn’t dare to face, but at this moment it was nakedly filling his mind.

I want to fuck the world so bad! ! ! ! !
