NBA: Since James left the Cavaliers

Intermission is over, the second half begins!
Players from both sides returned to the field without any changes in the lineup. The two teams still used the lineup before the end of the first half.

"The long wait is finally over. What will happen in the second half of the game that will determine the fate of this game?"

"let us wait and see!"

On the sidelines, the commentator brightened the atmosphere, and the fans immediately began to cheer for the home team, the Cavaliers.

As the game whistle blew, the Cavaliers made their first offense of the second half.

Long Rui organizes the offense outside the three-point line. Originally, this lineup should be the lineup with the fastest offensive rhythm, but now Long Rui began to deliberately slow down the offensive rhythm.

His purpose is very simple, while reducing his own offensive rhythm, it also slows down the Heat.

The offensive rhythm of the two teams in the first half was very fast, and at the end of the half, the point difference was relatively high.

Under such circumstances, once their touch starts to decline, it is very likely that their opponents will hit a wave of offensive climax.

The game in the third quarter is very critical to the outcome of this game, so he must play more cautiously.

Curry, Yi Jianlian and others began to run their positions, looking for opportunities to catch the ball.

However, the Heat's sense of defensive oppression has increased a lot compared to the first half. Every defensive player followed closely, and no one was missed.

After passing the ball several times, the Cavaliers failed to find a good shot, and the basketball returned to Long Rui's hands again.

There were still six seconds left in this attack, Long Rui saw that his teammates really had no chance to escape, so he decided to take the shot himself.

In front of him, LeBron James also saw Long Rui's intentions. His legs were slightly bent, his arms were outstretched, and he assumed a defensive posture.

There seemed to be a strong fighting spirit in those eyes, as if to say that he would definitely defend this shot.

At this moment, Long Rui could clearly feel the powerful aura that James exuded. If it wasn't for his excellent psychological quality, he would have been intimidated by this aura.

Facing James' strong defense, Long Rui launched his personal attack.

The continuous feinting didn't have much effect. James stood still in front of Long Rui without even shifting his body's center of gravity.

With only the last three seconds left in the attack time, Long Rui's pressure was increasing.

At this moment, he had a plan in mind, trying to trick James into a shooting foul.

After he feinted a shot, he suddenly took a step back and at the same time joined the ball to make a shooting motion.

Seeing this, James immediately stepped forward to block the shot.

Long Rui was overjoyed and wanted to lean on James' body to throw the ball.

This trick is like the ball at the end of the first quarter.

But this time, Long Rui's 'trick' was completely seen through by James.

When Long Rui deliberately wanted to find physical contact, James suddenly stopped and took a step back.

This caused Long Rui to lose his balance, and he made an outrageous throw, causing embarrassment on the sidelines.

"You think I'll be tricked again?"

James' cold voice sounded in Long Rui's ear, as if he had slapped him hard.

Long Rui's face also sank, this ball was indeed a bit simple in his thinking.

This person is James, who has an extremely high golf quotient, and his ability to read the game is also top-notch.

Before he could think about it, after making a mistake, Long Rui immediately led his teammates to retreat, not giving the Heat a chance to launch a quick counterattack.

'The Flash' Wade advanced quickly with the ball and wanted to play a quick attack, but he found that the Cavaliers' defense was also in place, leaving no chance at all.

Wade immediately changed his offensive thinking, and he dribbled towards the weak side, avoiding the strong side of the Cavaliers' defense.

Afterwards, he signaled his teammates to pull away for a one-on-one singles match against Long Rui.

This is their main goal in the second half, which is to keep targeting Long Rui.

On the offensive end, Wade was singled out, forcing Long Rui to increase his energy on the defensive end.

On the defensive end, it is for James to consume, which is also aimed at Long Rui's physical strength.

Once being topped by these two and consumed in turn, no player can withstand such a high intensity of pressure.

"Long Rui, next, you will know what despair is."

The cold words gave Long Rui a bad premonition.

As soon as the words fell, Wade started his attack.

The first step of the crowning alliance was taken, and the speed of 'The Flash' was immediately reflected.

Under this step, most players would be passed by Wade, but Long Rui did not lose his defensive position, but also followed up quickly, still blocking in front of Wade.

He is also one of the few players in the league who can keep up with Wade's speed.

Wade has long been used to this. He and Long Rui have faced each other many times, and they know each other very well.

Although his attack was blocked, Wade was not in a hurry. His intention was to consume Long Rui. As long as he did this, he would be considered as completing the task.

He tried to break through three times in a row, but was blocked by Long Rui.

There is not much time left in the attack, and this time the exhausting task is considered complete. Wade immediately passes the ball to the inside 'Dragon King' Bosh.

Bosh catches the ball deep, making it difficult for Yi Jianlian to defend.

Although Yi Jianlian tried his best to defend, there is still a certain strength gap between the two.

After a few shakes, using his proficient inside skills, Bosh still hit the ball into the basket.

The Cavaliers' slim lead was immediately tied.

"It seems that the hot state of the Heat on the offensive end has not dissipated, which is not good news for the Cavaliers."

"The Cavaliers are still too young. Whether they can withstand such pressure depends on their next performance."

Looking back, the Cavaliers sent the baseline ball.

Long Rui continued to control the ball and organize the team's offense.

Yi Jianlian wants to take the initiative to come up to cover for Long Rui, and wants to form a defense change, so that Long Rui can get a chance to attack in a dislocation.

But his intention was also seen through by Bosh. Bosh stuck in Yi Jianlian's body tightly and didn't give him a chance to cover up.

James, on the other hand, was like a tiger, staring at Long Rui covetously, showing the best defensive attitude.

Under such a defense, it is too difficult for Long Rui to attack completely personally. Even if he can score the ball, it will consume a lot of energy.

For him who wants to play the whole game, it is not a wise choice to force an attack.

Thinking of this, Long Rui handed the ball to Curry, took the initiative to give up the ball, and went to play off the ball.

Compared with Long Rui and Paul George, Curry faced defenders much easier.

Although Chalmers' defensive attitude is very good, his ability is not as good as that of 'Janeway', so this point of Curry is the key to the Cavaliers breaking the deadlock!
