This striker is a bit of a monster

Chapter 289 Rampage Zhan Huang, helpless to lose

Although James has been working hard to get rid of others' impression of his talent and physical flow, and has worked hard to polish his offensive skills, but in this period, his strong physical fitness has made James still known as one of the representatives of playing with his body. His physical talent lies not only in jumping confrontation and agility, but also in his endurance and extraordinary recovery ability. Many players of the same age are beginning to suffer from injuries, including the one who lost his meniscus. Wade is one of the representatives, but as for James, he has only missed 20 regular season games in six seasons, and the minimum attendance season is 75 games. After a sprain, step up and step on a few feet, just stomp on it, even if you take a break, you may only rest for 1-2 games.

Some commentators even joked that James' palms and soles are surrounded by muscles!
Before the age of 30, the biggest operation James had to do should be the transformation of his hair.

James' talent is basically equivalent to the internal force in martial arts novels. When you have super internal force, even if you use the simplest tricks, it is full of power.

As for Zhou Lin, he is going in another direction. Zhou Lin's physical fitness has not yet reached the top level in the NBA. His technical means are all top-notch, whether it is personal offense or assisting his teammates, plus his slender body, so it is not wrong to be called agile and elegant.

No matter how the game is played, Zhou Lin and James will play the leading roles.

It's like two opponents standing on the ring, either they don't make a move, or if they do, it should be the tip of the needle!

This is also the drama that all fans are looking forward to.

"New move? Hmm, nice dribble!"

James raised his eyebrows and said, "It seems that I should seriously guard against you."

"Hey, you gave it your all just now, okay? LeBron, I'm no longer that little rookie who would tremble when I saw you."

Zhou Lin responded.

The confrontation between the two is also very intense, especially when fighting for positions, the sound of meat colliding with each other can be heard almost every round.

The bigger and bigger movements also attracted the referee's attention, and Zhou Lin was the first to get an off-ball foul.

Zhou Lin shook his head helplessly, he was at least one level behind LeBron in physical confrontation, and what I have to say is that LeBron can have such a high achievement in the future, and there is definitely a relationship with LeBron James' high golf quotient inseparable relationship.

But don't be fooled by James' aggressive image. He is definitely good at using some small tricks, and he also has some skills in acting. Just now, James suddenly relieved his strength, and it was intentional. Fell in front of the referee.

"Oscar owes you a statuette."

Although Zhou Lin was speechless, he still said to James with a smile.

Zhou Lin is not as good as James in strength confrontation, so he needs to use all his strength in almost every round, but James has a certain degree of advancement and retreat, so it is inevitable for Zhou Lin to suffer a loss on the defensive end.

Moreover, this is the home court of the Cleveland Cavaliers, and fouls are even more disadvantaged.

To make matters worse, the Bobcats lost their touch at this time. It must be admitted that in certain periods of time, the basket will continue to reject shooters. Of course, the main reason is the matchup between Zhou Lin and James. In fact, using too much strength to defend has also affected the offensive end. It is completely unrealistic for Zhou Lin to want to trade with James on both offensive and defensive ends.

It's just that the Charlotte Bobcats don't have suitable players to defend James, so Zhou Lin can only defend alone.

This is also a situation that rarely occurs in the NBA where two absolute No.1 teams directly collide with each other.

Such a face-to-face collision is definitely not a worthwhile thing for the Charlotte Bobcats, so Larry Brown quickly paid the price.

At the end of the first quarter, the Charlotte Bobcats trailed by 17 points 27-10.

James dominated both offense and defense.

Only players who have really played against James can feel this pressure. This is not the first time Zhou Lin tried to defend James alone. Zhou Lin failed two years ago, and he still failed this year. It does not mean that Zhou Lin has not made any progress. On the contrary, Zhou Lin has made great progress, but James, who is only 24 years old, is still in the process of going uphill. Zhou Lin is stronger than two years ago, and James is also much stronger than two years ago.

With the accumulation of experience, James slowly integrated his skills, tactics and body.

"It can't be consumed like this anymore."

Larry Brown also saw the clues, saying: "Defending James is not a matter of one person!"

What Larry Brown did was to switch defenses. Zhou Lin could no longer match up with James. At least on the defensive end, Zhou Lin should not be allowed to take on too many single defenses.

During the short break in the second quarter, Zhou Lin played again, and the burden of defending James fell on James Posey. The player who won the championship with the Heat and the Celtics almost won Was placed at the end of the bench by Larry Brown, but now James Posey still ushered in a role.

First, his height can match James. Second, his playoff experience may be the most abundant among this group of young people. Larry Brown tried to make him match James at the end of the first quarter. The results seem to be working fine.

Therefore, after Zhou Lin returned to the court in the second quarter, James was not replaced. Zhou Lin was regarded as playing four, and partnered with Yi Jianlian who came from the bench.

Of course, Larry Brown wouldn't expect his team's James to really limit the league's No.1 James.

After James Posey carried the ball for a while in the second quarter, Luke Mbah a Moute was entrusted with the important task of defending James. Larry Brown is completely going to fight the wheel. The purpose of widening the bench is to make more Too much to consume James.

In other words, the burden of defending James was assigned to Zhou Lin, James Posey, and Luke Mbah a Mott. It felt like the three British were fighting against Lu Bu. In addition, a big man was placed inside to form an encirclement circle. Go round James.

In fact, Zhou Lin already misses the Argentine guy Walter Herman a bit. In the playoffs two years ago, it was Zhou Lin and Walter Herman who tortured James in turns, and finally fought for two games victory.

But even so, James is still a bit of a god-killer, the feeling of the Jade Buddha killing the Buddha, a lot of balls, even if Luke Mbah a Moute paid for the foul, he was still pulled into the basket by James.

In the first round against the Philadelphia 76ers, James averaged 4 points in 39 games, and his offensive power was even stronger than in the regular season. With this momentum, James scored 19 points in the half.

The Cleveland Cavaliers also led the Charlotte Bobcats by 52 points at halftime, 39-13.

"I know that defending LeBron is not an easy thing, so I divided the defense of James into three parts."

Larry Brown patted Zhou Lin on the shoulder and said, "Put more attention on the offensive end."

At the beginning of the third quarter, although Zhou Lin was single-handedly defending against James, other teammates were ready to help at any time, so Zhou Lin was not so tired. The good news is that Zhou Lin scored 10 points in 3 of 7 halftime. The scoring in the third quarter was finally opened.

First, facing James' defensive pull-up shot, hit a long two-pointer, and then with the help of Hibbert's solid pick-and-roll, broke through to the inside, and succeeded in a pull-up layup. As soon as Zhou Lin opened his hand, he began to revitalize the whole team.

Brandon Roy, who also felt slightly cold in the first half, hit consecutive three-pointers from the bottom corner.

At 4 minutes and 23 seconds into the third quarter, the Charlotte Bobcats finally narrowed the point difference to within 5 points, and Mike Brown called a timeout.

"It's also fortunate that Larry Brown's brain is turning fast, otherwise Zhou Lin would spend all his attention on defense. The most important thing for the Bobcats is to activate Zhou Lin's talent on the offensive end. Zhou Lin's defense is not good. Bad, but it's not very good against James."

"Actually, Zhou Lin is really not good at guarding against someone who is fast and strong like James. Zhou Lin is not afraid of your speed, nor is he afraid of your accurate shots. After all, his footsteps, height, and bullet speed are all good. In terms of confrontation, it is slightly inferior."

Bystanders are clear.

Zhou Lin is really not used to the strong defensive third position.

The Bobcats also thought about it clearly. Once Zhou Lin holds the ball, there will be a lot of screens. It is abrupt to stagger the matchup between Zhou Lin and James, whether it is the offensive end or the defensive end.

The Bobcats strategy in the third quarter was very successful, and Zhou Lin's specialty was also brought into play. Except for James, he can single-handedly attack any player, and Zhou Lin is probably one of the players in the league who is not afraid of double-teaming. In addition to contributing 8 points in the third quarter, Zhou Lin also sent 3 assists.

In the third quarter, the Bobcats won by 8 points, 70-75, only 5 points away.

James has scored 32 points in three quarters, which is obviously going to be another 40+ points.

"We're doing great, keep it up!"

Harsh as Larry. Brown must also applaud the disciples in the third quarter.

At the beginning of the fourth quarter, James took a short break. What I have to say is that James is really a monster. He has almost no shortcomings in physical talent, even physical ability. In the first three quarters, he has a total of After 2 and a half minutes of rest in the second quarter, it is estimated that James' playing time in this game will go up to 42 minutes.

It is a pity that the Charlotte Bobcats failed to narrow or even overtake the score in the absence of LeBron James.

Pavlovich came on as a substitute for James. The Yugoslav player who was the main substitute for James two years ago has basically been marginalized this season. However, he was replaced at such an important time in this game, and he really lived up to Mike. Brown, first made Yi Jianlian's offensive foul on the defensive end, and then made a three-pointer on the offensive end. It is worth mentioning that this guy's three-point shooting percentage this season is a career-high 2%. But free throws are a career low of 41%, which is almost the same. Of course, the number of shots is very small and the samples are not rich.

With this performance of offense, one defense and two goals, it is already worthy of these few minutes of playing time, and it also allows James to stabilize on the bench.

At 9 minutes and 12 seconds into the fourth quarter, Zhou Lin was replaced, and James was replaced immediately. Both players waited for the dead ball to enter the field across the billboard.

The data was also shown on the TV.

周林17分，投篮15中6，三分球4中1。

勒布朗.詹姆斯32分，投篮19中11，三分球5中2。

The gap between the leading football stars is self-evident. Whether it is scoring or efficiency, Zhou Lin was crushed in this game.

And James, who had recharged his energy, returned to the court and quickly contributed his own energy. First, he contributed a three-point block on the defensive end.

The exaggerated bouncing height even made the broadcast screen repeat over and over again.

"Beast, this is too high!"

Mike Dunleavy is already considered a high fortress, and his shot point is also high, but he was still capped by James who was one step away.

After being blocked, James ran again. Mo Williams took the ball and threw it high into the air. Although Zhou Lin also slapped him to catch up, he was still used as a background board for a dunk.

James beat his chest domineeringly and roared after the alley-oop dunk.

The score was also stretched to double digits, and the applause continued!

Although Larry Brown is still trying his best to arrange tactics, he can't hold back the aggressiveness of the Cleveland Cavaliers.

The score is a bit behind, Zhou Lin and Brandon Roy are a little anxious, and frequently take shots from outside the three-point line, but the more anxious they are, the more difficult it is to handle things.

Missing four consecutive three-pointers, the Cleveland Cavaliers had widened the gap to 3 points at 23 minutes and 18 seconds into the fourth quarter.

Although Zhou Lin and Sessions finally hit a three-pointer from beyond the three-point line, and Brandon Roy also scored 2+1 with a wonderful baseline glider, they still failed to stop the ball. The team lost in this game.

In the last 12 seconds of the game, the Cleveland Cavaliers had the ball. Mo Williams took the ball and did not play again. The Eastern Conference Semifinals G1 ended.

The Cleveland Cavaliers defeated the Charlotte Bobcats 105-92, 13 points.

LeBron. James scored a game-high 41 points, in addition to 7 assists and 9 rebounds.

Although Zhou Lin also scored 26 points, his shooting percentage was very poor. He made 23 of 8 shots and 8 of 2 three-pointers.

Another of the Charlotte Twins, Brandon Roy drove high and low, contributing 19 points, 4 rebounds and 5 assists.

In addition, for the Cavaliers, Big Z contributed a double-double with 11 points and 14 rebounds, and Mo Williams had 18 points and 4 assists.
