NBA: Since James left the Cavaliers

Chapter 165 Solving Mental Obstacles

"Long Rui, this..."

Paul George felt guilty immediately.

"Don't talk nonsense, beat me with all your means."

Long Rui had already assumed a defensive posture, and his defensive ability was much better than Anthony's.

The atmosphere on the training ground suddenly became tense.

Facing Long Rui's defense, Paul George suddenly felt an invisible pressure, just like facing Anthony yesterday, and it seemed stronger.

Under such pressure, Paul George became hesitant again, completely losing his state.

Long Rui took the opportunity to cut off the ball in his hand.

"what are you doing?"

"How can you help the team win in your state? How can you lead your teammates?"

"Don't think too much, I am your enemy, you just want to defeat me, it's that simple."

With that said, Long Rui gave the ball to Paul George again.

Paul George is actually a very strong person. When he was stimulated by Long Rui's words, he felt a pang of anger in his heart.

His face darkened, and his eyes had obviously changed from just now.

Seeing this, the corners of Long Rui's mouth rose slightly, and he knew that Paul George's heart was beginning to change in the same direction.

Compared with Long Rui, Paul George has a certain height advantage.

Therefore, his first attack was very clear, using his height advantage to complete a jumper in front of Long Rui.

After shaking a few times, he took the initiative to find a physical confrontation, used the thrust between them to create a little distance, and then decisively completed the shot.

This ball was a good shot in the game, but it is a pity that Paul George's hand feeling is not good, and this ball was not able to hit.

However, this also allowed him to see the possibility of scoring goals in front of Long Rui, which boosted his confidence a lot.

For the next second ball, he still used the same method, this time the basketball fell into the basket accurately after the shot.

At this moment, Paul George also showed joy in his expression.

"Nice job!"

Long Rui immediately cheered up.

At this time, Yi Jianlian, Curry and others also came to the training ground one after another.

When they saw the scene in front of them, they also gave encouragement to Paul George.

In the next few rounds, Paul George became more and more confident, using the skills he had mastered to the fullest.

In ten rounds, he scored a total of five goals!

This is not easy for him. You must know that Long Rui's defensive level is at the top among outside players.

Although Long Rui put a little water in, it was not easy to score five goals.

"It seems that George will be able to lead us to victory in the next game!"

"Long Rui, you can take a truce for the next game!"

Curry and others watched Paul George's performance, and immediately made a joke.

"Come on everyone, this is the video of our first game, now we have to find out our problems."

With that said, Long Rui let everyone watch the video.

It took a whole morning to watch. They also found many problems in the video and started to solve them in the afternoon training.

The two days passed quickly, and the Cavaliers did not relax for a moment, almost all of them were spent in training.

At night, Long Rui lay on the sofa and couldn't sleep, but his mind was thinking about tomorrow's game.

The Knicks must have been fully prepared in these two days, and the second game will be the key to this round of the series.

After the contest in the first game, both teams must have readjusted.

Whoever can win after adjustment will be able to control the initiative of this round of the series.

……

The next day.

Quicken Loans Center ushered in the second contest of the first round of the playoffs.

"In the last game, the Knicks lost the game with a slight difference of two points."

"And the Cavaliers also made a lot of mistakes in the game."

"I believe after the game, both teams made their own adjustments."

"Then today's match will be a contest after adjustment. It is still unknown who will be able to laugh at the end!"

Fans entered the arena one after another, and half an hour later, the entire stadium was full.

The atmosphere at home for the Cavaliers was completely heightened.

Moments later, the two teams started to play.

After a simple warm-up before the game, the game officially started.

The starting lineups of the two sides have not changed, and the plastic surgery of the first game is still used.

At the beginning of the game, the two teams showed a full sense of gunpowder.

After adjustment, there are different changes in tactical deployment.

The first is the Knicks. At the beginning of the game, they paid special attention to the operation of offensive basketball.

Running the offense is no longer the job of Chauncey Billups alone, it's the team's job.

They run the ball the best, everyone is happy to share the ball, even Anthony, who likes to play alone, started to pass a lot.

Under smooth operation, they played more like an excellent team, and they also showed a trend of multi-point blooming on the offensive end, scoring the ball frequently.

This change made the Cavaliers very uncomfortable, because the defensive strategy they used in the first game has almost failed.

This also forced coach Byron Scott to call a timeout in less than 3 minutes of the opening and re-arrange.

Similarly, the Cavaliers also made the Knicks very uncomfortable after adjustments.

In the first game, they did not limit the Cavaliers' offense very well, and now it is even more difficult to limit.

Compared with the first game, the Cavaliers are now playing more patiently. They no longer deliberately seek a fast-paced style of play, but seek to win steadily and minimize their mistakes.

When the team can't start the situation, Long Rui will immediately stand up and use his personal ability to help the team tide over the difficulties.

Compared to the first game, Long Rui played more resolutely on the court.

In the first quarter, most of the time the two teams played inseparable.

The score has almost always maintained a trend of alternating leads.

It wasn't until the end of the first quarter when the two teams entered the rotation stage that the score changed.

The Cavaliers' second unit is significantly better than the Knicks'.

After two days of psychological counseling by Long Rui, Paul George finally regained his confidence in the regular season.

Under his leadership, a wave of 6:0 offensive climax was played.

At the end of the first quarter, it helped the Cavaliers widen the point difference to 8 points!
However, that's pretty much the epitome of the game.

Under the contest of the main lineup of the two teams, neither of them got much advantage, but in the substitute lineup, the Cavaliers showed their own advantages.

At the end of the game, the Cavaliers made another victory with 117:104, rewriting the big score to 2:0!

The victory of this game, the second team led by Paul George can be said to have contributed a lot!
