Chapter 1083 James' Strength
"pretty."

"Meng Yun's three-pointer is really straightforward."

In the small restaurant, a group of people shouted.

He looks like a tiger, but the ten-year-old Dundun also shouted at the top of his voice: "Meng Yun is awesome!"

Liu Hu slapped Dundun'er on the head: "Who taught you these messy things, have you seen Niubi, you are just a little bit bigger."

Dundun curled his lips, and said indifferently: "You are out of date. Also, don't hit me on the back of the head, or I will tell my dad and let him kick you out."

"Heh." Liu Hu laughed, and pointed to the TV, "Did you see that? Meng Yun is amazing, he is my brother, my brother, do you want his autograph?"

Dun Dun'er squinted at Liu Hu suspiciously.

Liu Hu's roommate explained with a smile: "Dunduner, it's true. In the first game of the finals last season, Meng Yun specially invited Brother Hu to watch the game in the United States."

"Dun Dun'er, you want Meng Yun's signature, that's all a matter of Brother Hu's words."

"Brother Hu didn't lie to you."

Dun Dun'er's eyes lit up immediately, with a flattering smile on his face: "Brother Hu, can you get me Meng Yun's autograph? I'll ask my dad to give you a discount when you come to dinner."

Liu Hu laughed loudly, and patted Dundun'er's head again contentedly: "Success, isn't it just a signature, what a joke."

"Bang!"

At this time, there was a loud noise, but it was James dunking with both hands on the TV screen. The whole person was hanging on the basket, and the muscles on his arms seemed to be carved out of rocks, full of domineering.

Liu Hu and the others looked at the TV together.

The score on the court was 7:5, the Heat took the lead, Meng Yun hit a three-pointer at the beginning, and the other 4 points came from Monroe and Whiteside, each of whom scored one.On the Cavaliers side, all 5 points came from James, a three-pointer, and a dunk with both hands after a breakthrough.

The Heat's strategy is to let James fight alone without giving the Cavaliers other players a chance.

James is also aware of this, but the Heat defend very well, and since he has a chance to score, he should score first, mobilize his teammates first, or attack by himself first. In James' opinion, there is actually not much difference-of course, this Just for James.

"boom!"

Korver hit the iron with a three-pointer, TT took the rebound and passed it to James, James quickly advanced, and after reaching the frontcourt, it was a breakthrough in a change of direction. No one has a three-point chance, so when James rushes up, he can't stop it.

"Bang!"

Another kick.

Monroe had a wry smile on his face. He returned to the defense fairly quickly, but he didn't defend his position well. When he saw James coming, he could only stick up as much as possible, but he was knocked away.

Dozens of seconds later, James scored again and set up a pick-and-roll with his teammates. Seeing that his defender had become Whiteside, he immediately made a false breakthrough and took a step back to shoot a three-pointer.

Whiteside moved slowly and put it a little far away. He could only watch James take the shot. The basketball bounced twice on the rim, and finally fell into it.

10 points!

Not long after the first quarter, James scored 10 points.

Coach Spoelstra frowned, and Meng Yun was also frowning. The previous defensive strategy was fine, but James' ability is too strong. It doesn't seem good to strangle others and let him fight alone. Way, James can't win by scoring 40 points, but what if he scores 50 points?

"beep"

The Heat requested a timeout.

When the players came down, Spoelstra said with a sullen face: "We need to make some changes in our defensive strategy. LeBron can't put this point too cleanly. We still have to defend against three-pointers."

"Yes." Green replied quickly.

The previous coach's arrangement was to prevent sudden shots, because for fans of James' level, as long as they pass you half a body, it is equivalent to passing you.

One-on-one defense, if you get too close, people will pass you.

So after weighing it up, Coach Spoelstra decided to put on the defense, because once James bursts in, the Heat will definitely need someone to defend, and there will be loopholes once the defense is supplemented.And shooting is simpler. It is definitely impossible for Green to block James, but at least he won't miss anyone.

However, there is always a difference between theory and reality.

The previous strategy was based on James' inaccurate three-pointers. Throughout James' career, he didn't shoot three-pointers very well. However, after only a few minutes of playing today, James made two three-pointers. Regardless of whether this is luck or not, he cannot be allowed to continue to cast like this.

If James really makes six or seven three-pointers, maybe he can really score 50 points.

"Assist in the defense." Spoelstra spread out the tactical board, "Meng Yun, you have to help Green in the defense, in case James breaks through."

To limit James' three-point shooting, Green needs to get closer, but if he is close, it will be difficult to prevent James' breakthrough, so someone needs to help him defend.

"Yeah." Meng Yun nodded with a serious expression. He didn't expect to have to change his defensive strategy after only a few minutes of the game.

After some arrangement, the players from both sides came back.

The Heat can make adjustments here. Meng Yun began to help Green defend James. Seeing this situation, James stopped shooting three-pointers.

At the same time, the Cavaliers have also made some adjustments on the offensive end. JR, Hill, Love and others are all moving quickly and interspersed, constantly running, while TT is responsible for covering James, and the ball is still in James' hands. However, compared to the previous few people standing and watching him play, it is obviously much more agile now.

The secret confrontation among them is generally incomprehensible to fans, but the NBA stars on the sidelines, as well as O'Neal and Smith in the commentary can see it clearly.

O'Neal said: "Oh, the Cavaliers adjusted very quickly, strengthening movement and pick-and-rolls, catching runs to get opportunities. LeBron's pass is not to worry about, so that they can have more scoring points, not like just now. That way it's just LeBron scoring."

"The Heat have also made adjustments." Smith and O'Neal chose their respective camps from the beginning. Although O'Neal was a Heat player, he chose to support the Cavaliers, while Smith chose to support the Heat. He is optimistic about Meng Yun, just like I was optimistic about Yao Ming at the beginning.

Smith said: "The Heat have adjusted their defensive strategy, and it will not be so easy for LeBron to score casually. Moreover, I think it's time for Meng Yun to make a move."

As soon as the words fell, Meng Yun made a breakthrough with a change of direction, allowing the Cavaliers to see the gap in the defensive rotation. A line was vacated inside, and he broke through immediately, tearing apart the defense along this line, and scored with a light layup. The Cavaliers players were still in the process of switching positions, and they didn't react.
