After 15 minutes of rest and recuperation, they came back for the second half of the game.
The two sides pulled out the starting lineup and played again, and the Cavaliers obviously learned the lesson.
The score was 10 points behind. I didn't fight the Suns offensively like I did in G1. I still took the lead and took advantage of my defense and height. I continued to play and see what would happen to keep the bullets alive for a while!
"James suddenly, Nash fought and retreated, fell into the pocket defensive formation, passed the ball to Larry Hughes to break through, faced the man, withstood Laga Bell's defense, forced a rush to the basket, and shot..."
Bang-dang——!
Another pair of strikes missed the target.
Larry Hughes is cheating people, and he will not stop (die)!
In the previous life, in the 07/08 season, the Cavaliers found the right opportunity to dispose of Larry Hughes in his prime and trade for Big Ben, who was on the decline.
This kind of self-destruction of martial arts comes from a team that reached the finals last season, which is a bit abnormal.
Don't ask, just ask: Larry Hughes is so stupid, so why do you still have years left?
Rumor has it that Larry Hughes and James have overlapping positions and playing styles, which is the main culprit for his decline in status and data.
You have to be tough when you are working hard. After leaving the Cavaliers, Larry Hughes did not perform better.
Of course, the 1.0 version of the Cavaliers, with the departure of Larry Hughes, has never made it to the finals. Do you think it is possible that a player's role is not only reflected in statistics?
They can even make it to the finals, so why do they need a bike? The Cavaliers are just messing around.
It's a pity that there are not many sober people in the world after all. In the G1 and G2 games currently being fought, Larry Hughes is still a scourge after all, and there is nothing wrong with it if it is dealt with.
That's too far.
On the court, Larry Hughes fought hard, but as James and Larry Hughes hit the basket one after another, the Suns' defensive formation became a mess, and it was impossible to regain the board.
"Gooden took off the rebound, turned around immediately, and hit a two-handed slam dunk..."
Bang-dang——!
In the second attack, the Cavaliers scored.
The score difference remains 8 points.
Off the court, Mike Brown breathed a sigh of relief. He didn't have to climb a mountain, the Cavaliers didn't have to ask, and they still had a chance to win.
On the court, the Suns attack.
"Nash took the baseline and made a quick serve, changed direction, turned around, passed James' press, calmly passed the ball to Laga Bell, continued to advance, and passed the basketball to Su Bei.
After a lucky move, one step away from the three-point line, Su Bei made the shot.
This was too random, a completely unreasonable shot, but it was also very reasonable. The rebound turned into a 3-for-2..."
Swish——!
When he picked up the knife and dropped it, Su Bei gambled that there was still a bullet in his hand.
The bet turned out to be a win.
3 point hit.
The score difference became 11 points.
"The Suns' offense looks very comfortable, smooth and fast-paced, and the players are very daring to shoot. With such a temperament, the Cavaliers and Suns are really looking for death if they fight against each other offensively."
"On the court, in the Cavaliers' offensive round, James' breakthrough attracted the defense and then sent the basketball into the sky..."
Bang-dang——!
Big Z made an alley-oop and continued to score in the air attack battle.
The Cavaliers held high and played high, and the Suns' defense could only falter.
The score difference became 9 points.
The Suns' tactics against the Twin Towers are one-word tactics: run!
Run fast and the world will be better, run slowly and you will get bullets.
With the speed of the twin towers, it would definitely end up being hit by bullets, and the defense would be considered useless.
This will be the case in the small ball era in the next 10 years.
As a high forward, you will find that they are all running back and forth on the court. Offensively, they can indeed use their height to bully people, but defensively, they are useless.
"The game has entered into an exchange of offenses again. From now on, the advantages of both sides are obvious. It doesn't matter whether they are tough or not. Just let them in. You have to see if it lasts..."
Hong Kong's long-lasting future will definitely not give in to each other.
It depends on who can't stand it!
At this time, the teammates around James, except for Larry Hughes, suddenly stopped attacking. The Cavaliers found a sense of offense, and the firepower was pouring out.
"James came in with a crab step, pushed against Nash's body, ran rampant between the flanks, and with a clang, he scored with a bang!"
…
"Big Z came out, received the pass from James, turned around, jumped up like a stream on the floor, and shot a two-point jumper. With a swish, he scored the same goal!"
…
"James broke through, passed the back pass to Pavlovic, and took a three-point jumper. There was a clang and the shot missed.
Gooden flew up, pushed the basketball back out again..."
The Cavaliers' style of "attacking James and relying on bread for defense" instantly changed from one shot, three shots and one rebound to multi-point shooting and everyone was on the same page.
The Cavaliers' offense was also in full swing, with full offensive firepower, especially in the paint. They were so hard in the surprise attack that they smashed the Suns' basket into a 'newbie'.
Only, Mengxin shivered.
In the third quarter, the Cavaliers, who opened the game offensively, had already fully utilized their height advantage.
It's a pity that at the end of the third quarter, looking at the score in a single quarter, the Cavaliers beat the Suns 29 to 32.
That's it?
I have the advantage of height. The offense opens up the situation. The Cavaliers operate like a tiger. When I look at the score, it is 250!
At the end of the first three quarters, the score was 88 to 75. The Suns led by 13 points and entered the final quarter.
Entering the fourth quarter, at this moment, the Cavaliers realized.
I found that if I want to come back and win the game, defense alone is not a problem, but also depends on the cost of offense. If this cost is small, it is not enough. Otherwise, if you want to embrace a beautiful woman... No, if you want to win the victory, it will be your boss. Dream, no way.
It seems that there is no way to escape, and we can only pull out and compete with the Suns on offense.
Bang-dang——!
At the beginning of the fourth quarter, James was still unwilling to give up and tried his three-point shot again.
As a result, he would die if he tried again. The basket would not tolerate him and he missed the ball.
"Big Z took off the rebound. When he saw James rushing in, he immediately passed the basketball. James caught the ball, took a long stride, jumped up from the penalty area, faced the defense, and made a one-handed slam dunk. …”
Bang-dang——!
The Tomahawk dunk scored two points.
James' blood became hot, he beat his chest like a gorilla, and roared angrily at the off-court camera.
This wasn't over yet. When he returned to defense, he even took the Overlord Step.
At this time, the little emperor showed his dominance and looked like a superstar.
He took two steps without any problem, took a deep breath, and had a determined look on his face.
No one knows that James can count how many drops are left in his body at this time.
He carried the team forward and showed his full strength in advance. He has consumed too much physical energy, and now he is not far away from not having a drop left.
The one who pretends to be the most domineering will be beaten the hardest. What Lu Xun once said is still very reasonable.
It's like a dog that bites but doesn't bark.
James just screamed, still roaring.
As the game progressed, James' physical problems exploded.
His shooting began to take a turn for the worse. In the past, his teammates were holding him back. Now, it's his turn to hold the team back.
Unfortunately, James can't take a rest yet, he has to toughen up and go up.
In the first three quarters of the game, Mike Brown only allowed him to rest for 2 minutes.
James is the core player of the Cavaliers' offensive and defensive system. He relies on him for offensive scoring, passing support, and defense... Damn it, there is not a drop left, what can he do?
Mike Brown could only play a dead horse as a live doctor, replacing Gibson and Marshall on the offense.
Not to mention, you can't guess Gibson. He is also a killer when he is in trouble. He made 4 of 5 shots in a single quarter and 3 of 3 three-pointers, which is a lot of accuracy.
Marshall also showed off his seasoned three-point shooting.
However, just playing neck-and-neck with the Suns is far from enough. The holes dug in the first three quarters are not big or small.
Without the premise of "attacking James", the Cavaliers only rely on other players. He cannot fill this hole satisfactorily.
Buzz—!
As the buzzer sounds, the red light lights up, and the game time is over.
The score was 115 to 106. The Suns had a 9-point advantage, defeated the Cavaliers, and made another victory, extending the score to 2-0.
Nash had 19 points and 16 assists, Stoudemire had 31 points and 12 rebounds, Marion had 21 points and 7 rebounds, and the core players did not fail.
Su Bei made 6 of 13 shots, 4 of 10 three-pointers, and 4 of 4 free throws. He scored 18 points, 5 rebounds, and 2 assists. The performance of the role players was just okay.
James played 46 minutes, making 15 of 26 shots, 2 of 6 three-pointers, and 13 of 15 free throws. He scored 45 points, 7 rebounds, and 8 assists. It can be said that he fought hard and could speak loudly. The Cavaliers lost, and he There is no losing.
Big Z only scored 15 points and 9 rebounds, which was pretty decent.
Larry Hughes made 2 of 9 shots and scored 7 points and 6 rebounds. Together with James and Big Z, the Big Three scored 67 points together and averaged 22.3 points. They still can't change their cheating attributes and can win. The ball is the devil.
