Chapter 112 Perfect and boring debut
Li Ke took a big step against Lebang.
This is an insult to Lebang, especially before the start of the season, he said: I have been sweating profusely this summer, I am working hard to develop my long shots and my back.
Now, Li Ke has taken a big step, and it is a bit unreasonable not to vote.
So, after Eddie House passed the ball to Lebang, Lebang hesitated for half a second and raised his hand and scored a three-pointer.
"LeBron James, he drew a three-pointer from outside the three-point line!"
Bang-!
The basket didn't give him any face at all and directly rejected Lebang's three-pointer.
Of course, Li Ke's seemingly light interference also played its role.
In the commentator's seat, Barkley shook his head: "LeBron is still proving his long shots. From the beginning of the season to now, he has only achieved a few successes."
"Compared with his previous seasons, he has not made much progress after a summer of sweating profusely."
On the court, Lebang's black face became even darker.
He didn't know the discussion about him at the commentary seat, and perhaps he would only feel wronged if he knew it.
Because this summer, he was indeed sweating profusely.
But he just can't practice this shot, what can he do?
...
At the basket, Jordan Jr. protected the rebound and changed offense and defense.
Rivers felt a pity that he could not see Li Ke's assist in the defense in the first round.
However, when he saw Lebang's shooting performance after being taken a big step, he knew that the defense of this game had been stable.
Back to the offensive end, the same routine is still the same.
Captain Jack received the ball on the top of the arc and supported him with his back.
Li Ke and Curry wandered around, and Lebang was still very serious in defending and followed closely.
But on the other side Eddie House followed a little slower and Curry found a chance.
Curry, who had thrown away the defender, then received a pass from Captain Jack, and shot it as soon as he received the ball, and a long shot that stepped on the three-point line.
Swish—!
"Stephen Curry also scored, the Bobcats' offense was as smooth as ever, and Sheldon's return did not change that."
Before the game, many tactical experts suggested that Li Ke's return may destroy the Bobcats' current excellent chemistry.
But Li Ke has proved that his comeback not only did not destroy the Bobcats' chemical reaction, but also improved the Bobcats' offensive intensity.
Just look at Curry's performance. In the past half month before Li Ke's comeback, his opponent's defense against Curry has been blocked by many people.
In this game, the Cavaliers need to put the focus of their defense on Li Ke's side.
The Bobcats' arc top support, the way of playing with many people without balls on the flanks looks extremely simple and even a bit brainless.
In fact, it is a crazy way to pull the space to the extreme.
There are threat points on both sides, and with the presence of Jamison, the Cavaliers' defensive formation is pulled very wide.
In this case, no matter which side of the gap is running out, it will be an excellent opportunity.
At the beginning 4-0, the Cavaliers kicked off the backcourt again.
It was Eddie House who controlled the ball to the frontcourt, then Lebang went around to the top of the arc and took the ball in his hand.
"Look at this attack, although it was taken a big step, LeBron should not shoot again, and the Cavaliers should start their regular play."
What is the regular way of playing in the Cavaliers? Someone will definitely blurt out: Lebang's sudden score.
In fact, with Wade and Bosh joining, and Larry Brown joining the coach, the Cavaliers will no longer be able to play a sudden offensive.
But the new style of play is not much different from the sudden score.
Specifically, it is-
"Boshtie made a single block for LeBron."
"LeBron suddenly passed, and the Bobcats changed defense directly, and now it is Antoine Jamison's top defense."
"No chance, LeBron chose to pass the ball."
At this point, the Knights still scored a lot.
But after the pass, Lebang had to turn away without the ball. Next, Wade, who was receiving the ball, made another sudden move.
To talk about the Cavaliers' bad luck at the beginning of the season, it is actually natural to analyze from the perspective of hindsight.
Because from the starter, this Cavaliers only have a qualified three-point shooter.
Eddie House was ambushed in the bottom corner, and was seen by Curry, without any chance.
The knight can only thrust forward and thrust forward to the end, and nothing is left.
With a clang, Wade's jump shot after breaking through also declared a blackshot.
This time it was Captain Jack, who grabbed the rebound at the basket and then shouted: "Counterattack!"
Putting aside the difference between one playing without the ball in positional battles and the other playing with the ball, the similarity between the Bobcats and the Cavaliers is that they will seize the opportunity to counterattack.
Captain Jack took the rebound, turned around, and the Bobcats started to fight back.
The Cavaliers' defense is very fast, but the Bobcats this season are already very different.
Four arrows were fired at once, and when Curry and Jamison were involved in the two wings, Li Ke took the lead and rushed into the three-point line.
Immediately, Captain Jack found Li Ke with a pass.
With a clang!
Li Ke, who took two steps at three steps at once, hung on the basket unstoppable.
"Counterattack dunk, Bobcats lead 6-0!"
"Sheldon's return obviously made the Bobcats' offense more sharp. He scored 4 points alone in the first three rounds!"
When Kenny Smith blew Li Ke, Barkley also nodded: "There is nothing to question. Swapping Wesley Matthews with Sheldon is an upgrade."
"Look at the Bobcats' outside foursome, Stephen Curry, Sheldon, Stephen Jackson, and Antoine Jamison, all have three-pointers and can hold the ball, which is too much of a threat..."
On the sidelines, Rivers clapped his hands. Although he had only had three rounds of attack, he had already seen the strength of the Bobcats from these three rounds of attacks.
"Just the four-man outside offensive team on the court, they really need to be integrated, and the strength is not weaker than the so-called Big Three."
"Big Three?"
Elvin Gentry, who was beside him, laughed when he heard the three giants.
"Doug, have you not seen clearly yet? The three giants are no longer the three giants, at most two giants."
"As long as we do our defense, they don't even have two giants."
To put it bluntly, Bosh is fake. Every time Lebang encounters Li Ke, he will be in vain. There is only one player left who is Wade who conquers the world and has a group of stinky fish and rotten shrimps.
The Big Three Cavaliers who blown out flowers before the season are nothing like this now, and they are even worse than the Nuggets and Galaxy Battleships that went to the season.
On the field, the Cavaliers' attack.
This time Eddie House handed the ball to Wade first, and Lebang shrank to the sideline. This wave of defense was nothing to do with Li Ke.
Despite this, Li Ke still paid close attention to the positive.
I saw that Bosh once again raised it and gave an extremely solid cover.
At that moment, the thought that flashed through Li Ke's mind was that Bosh kept mentioning it, no wonder it was fake.
But then, he saw Wade, who was holding the ball, suddenly exerting force, and his speed instantly soared to the fastest.
At the first moment, Li Ke chose to let go of Lebang, who was outside the three-point line and pounced on him.
After that, Li Ke heard the exclamations from Time Warner Center.
"Wade suddenly accelerated, Antoine Jamison's defense change was about to break... Sheldon made up for it, it was too timely!"
In the commentator's seat, Kenny Smith exclaimed, and Rivers clapped his hands on the sidelines.
It is not surprising that he can see all kinds of assisted defenses during training.
But in actual combat, this is the first time that Li Ke has made effective defense.
Rivers was a little excited. He understood what a Li Ke, who had a keen sense of defense, meant to the team.
On the court, Wade was blocked by Li Ke in the middle distance.
Captain Jack at the top of the arc has excellent consciousness and has changed to Lebang. In addition, Jamison, who has re-targeted Bosh, the Bobcats' defense has returned to a one-on-one state.
Wade turned around and made a fake pass. After shaking for a while, he still turned over and jumped up extremely resolutely.
Bang-!
"The Cavaliers continue to hit the iron, and the problem of no shooters on the outside has been magnified."
To be precise, it’s not that there are no shooters, but that there are too few shooters and not enough.
Even the Heat Big Three in his previous life were changing to Bosh, who gradually developed a three-pointer, to let Lebang play the No. 4 position and play one more shooter on the outside, which solved the problem of space congestion.
Not to mention the current knights.
LeBonwade's offensive threat is huge, but the two have similar styles of play, which leads to the two being able to fight the so-called Zhan Wei link in counterattack.
When it comes to the positional battle, these two people are just two individuals and cannot cooperate with each other.
In addition, Bosh, which has no three points, is in the high position, and the congestion of space can be imagined.
In this regard, although Li Ke's assisted defense is very critical and surprising, it is actually the reason why the Knights' space is not so open.
The first official timeout was reached at the beginning, and the Bobcats directly beat the Cavaliers 14-6.
The 8-point score difference made the commentator's seat completely speechless, who had been expecting a strong match against Barkley and Kenny Smith.
They believe that the Big Three is still very strong.
In this game, the Cavaliers scored 6 points and 4 points in the half-quarter of the game were Wade's efforts, and the remaining 2 points were Valejo's bargaining under the basket.
But at the same time, Lebang, who gradually began to appear at a low position, took out his back to practice some progress in the summer, which also put a certain pressure on Li Ke.
In addition, after the game started again, Bosh's position gradually moved inward and also performed well.
Overall, the Big Three is still fine.
The problem with tactics and role player configuration is too big.
"For the Cavaliers, trading is imminent, and even tactical changes cannot be delayed."
So, Barkley pointed out the problem directly, and he had no expectations for this game.
In the second half of the first quarter, the Cavaliers turned into the three giants' fighting style, which made some noise.
At the end of the first quarter, the score became 28 to 19.
The sinkhole in the first half of the quarter made the score gap very big.
But even if you put aside the first half, the Knights were suppressed by the Bobcats as a whole.
In the second quarter, the Big Three took turns to play, and the Cavaliers' situation was surprisingly better than the first quarter.
There is no need to say more at this time, in one sentence: "The three giants of Knights seem beautiful, but they actually don't match them at all."
Adding another sentence: "It's too difficult for Larry Brown to really restore the momentum of the Big Three to the beginning of the season."
Cleveland, Danny Ferry, who was watching the game in front of the TV, was already frowning.
Buckley's words were repeated in his mind. The deal was imminent, and the tactics had to be changed...
...
Back to the game, Li Ke only played half of the game in the second quarter.
The main reason is this comeback debut, which made him feel bored. The opponent should be very strong, but he couldn't feel any strength when he started the fight.
"The three giants fight each other, but Lebang is still the same as I am so guarded by me..."
"No, no, it's not the same. This guy's back is a bit threatening now, but it doesn't look like Dameng's back?"
"He couldn't learn it from Barkley, right?"
Lebang's back, including the second half of the first and second half of the second half, Li Ke was much more careful.
The feeling he gave was that Lebang relied on his body to open up some space, and then he squeezed the space with his body and barely sent the ball into the basket.
This back-body style that relies on the body rather than the footsteps is indeed not like the Dameng style.
It looks very similar to Barkley's back, but what is more similar is actually Li Ke's back...
Lebang transforms into the king of backs, emmm, the king of backs here does not mean that Lebang's backs are very powerful, but that he only knows how to carry his backs.
Bosh played like a second-rate power forward. For example, his opponent, Antoine Jamison, was even slightly inferior to Jamison, who had three-pointers.
The one who has been supporting the knight is the outsider Wade.
At the end of the half, the score was 57 to 44, with a 13-point lead, the Bobcats entered the intermission.
The lead is actually not big. The Big Three still withstood the pressure after the three hit the back.
Wade scored a high of 16 points in the half, Bosh scored 9 points, and Lebang was strictly guarded by Li Ke, but he also scored 8 points.
The Big Three scored 33 points together, and the Cavaliers' role player only scored the remaining 11 points.
Let’s look at the Bobcats. Li Ke scored 11 points in the first half, Curry scored 9 points, Captain Jack scored 7 points, Jamison scored 7 points, and the four people combined, which is basically equal to the Cavaliers’ Big Three.
The one who really determines the outcome is the group of character players.
Eddie House's 3 points, Daniel Gibson's 6 points and Valaijo's 2 points are the scores of all Cavaliers' role players.
On the Bobcats, Jordan Jr. scored 4 points, the former Cavaliers player Mo Jr. scored 7 points, Wesley Matthews also scored 5 points, plus Lao Du's 3 points, Tucker's 2 points and 2 points praised for the No. 1 pick.
It is obvious that the role players of the Bobcats are already blooming everywhere.
In the second half, the gap between role players still exists, but the Big Three is difficult to tie the F4 against the same as in the first half.
Because physical fitness is limited, the intensity of the game that can be maintained has time limits.
As time progressed, the Bobcats f4, which had received a lot of rest, continued to maintain extremely high game intensity.
The three giants that have always supported the Knights have gradually become weak.
In the end, Li Ke's comeback debut, the strong showdown ended without any suspense.
"111 to 96, the Bobcats' victory was too easy!"
"Sheldon, who made his comeback debut, scored 27 points, 5 rebounds, 4 assists and 2 steals, making a perfect comeback!"
Chapter completed!
