Chapter 13 Opportunity
On the 7th, the home game against the Pacers.

The Pacers are a very hard-working weak team, and they have been hard-working all these years.

But for Qin Yang, this is good news, because the Cavaliers can take a big lead only when they encounter a weak team.After that, as a substitute, Qin Yang had the chance to play.

But a weak team is not necessarily weak.

At the beginning of this game, the Cavaliers were kicked out by the Pacers at home.

In the first quarter, the Pacers attacked frantically.Granger, the boss of the Pacers, is a model of inspiration. He is not timid in the face of LeBron James and plays very positively.

In the first quarter, Granger scored 10 of 7 points and scored 16 points. LeBron played comprehensively, but the data of 4 points, 3 rebounds and 2 assists was still slightly inferior.

LeBron's strength is very strong, not only on the offensive end, but also on the defensive end.

But Daniel Granger is a different kind of play.

Playing ball is not domineering or ostentatious, but...it is very important.

Although the appearance is not good, but after LeBron was slightly blocked, Granger made an emergency stop for a jump shot, and LeBron quickly helped defend, but it was not in place at all.

Every shot, Granger played simply, effectively, clearly.

Most of the time, Granger mainly shoots from the outside, and does not have Rose's extremely domineering breakthroughs and dunks, but even so, his performance is not inferior.

Granger's shooting level may not be very high, but his rhythm and skills are very good.

It is difficult for ordinary people to defend left-handed shots.

If it weren't for Big Z's explosion in the first quarter, 3 of 2 and 4 free throws at the same time, the Cavaliers would be behind by double digits in the first quarter.

In the second quarter, after LeBron left the court, the Cavaliers performed even worse.

Delon Twist and Daniel Gibson played all kinds of irons, but Mo Williams broke through for a layup at a critical moment and scored a lot, helping the team save some points.

No way, after 6 minutes in the second quarter, LeBron played again.

The Cavaliers trailed by 15 points.

After playing, LeBron took the lead, forced into the basket and caused a foul, and made two free throws.But looking back, Granger assisted Murphy to hit a three-pointer.

Mo Williams, who was defending Murphy from the outside, looked depressed. Coach Brown yelled loudly outside, but there was nothing he could do.

Murphy is a power forward, but he only shoots from the outside. The height gap makes it impossible for Mo Williams to defend.

This is more than that, looking back, Daniel Granger made an emergency stop to attract the defense, Granger passed to Murphy again, Murphy made a mid-range shot, and Delonte West provoked a foul.

The ball is in.

2+1!

In the blink of an eye, the Cavaliers trailed by 21 points.

LeBron had a gloomy face on the court. Coach Mike Brown called a timeout on the sidelines, then glanced around the sidelines, and finally fell on Qin Yang.

"Bruce, next you play, the outside line is misplaced to defend Murphy."

Coach Brown named Qin Yang, Qin Yang's eyes lit up, and he clenched his fists.

The Cavaliers made substitutions, Big Z went off, Delonte West went off, Qin Yang and Varejao were replaced.

Coach Brown was talking about the key to defense on the sidelines, Qin Yang kept nodding, but uh... who would pay attention to what he was talking about.Qin Yang's thoughts have already reached the court.

Game start.

Murphy made a free throw and made a steady hit.

The Cavaliers attacked, Mo Williams dribbled the ball halfway and then handed it to LeBron James who was standing high, and the others opened up the space and position respectively.

Varejao stepped forward to pick and roll, and then went to the weak side. Qin Yang moved quietly to the corner.

The bottom corner is the place that can best open up the position for teammates who break through. Qin Yang is in the bottom corner, which naturally attracts attention, but who is Qin Yang? Even the commentator can't recognize the Cavaliers' own players.So Jarrett Jack, who was defending Qin Yang, didn't care at all, but went to double-team LeBron.

The next moment, when LeBron entered the basket, he was double-teamed, and the basketball flew out towards Qin Yang.

Empty seat!

Qin Yang was nervous for a while, he didn't hesitate, and he didn't look at Mo Williams who had already run out of the empty space not far away.The moment Qin Yang caught the ball, he jumped up slightly. He didn't try his best, but it was very fast, without any buffer.

Raise the arm and gently swing the basketball with the strength of the wrist.

"LeBron's pass, catch, shot...too fast, open, should..."

The commentator hadn't finished speaking, but the next moment, after the shot, Qin Yang showed a smile, and walked back without watching the basketball.

Whoosh!
A three-pointer was scored.

"three points!"

"bang!"

"It was an unbelievable shot. I have to say that this Chinese man performed well. The three-pointer was shot in a timely manner, which is very critical. Now the point difference has returned to 18 points, and the Cleveland people still have hope."

A three-point shot was made, and Qin Yang showed a hint of excitement on his face.

"It's a great start."

Qin Yang couldn't help shouting in his heart: "I will never go back to the bench again, never."

LeBron James stepped forward to give Qin Yang a high-five to celebrate, and Qin Yang also lived up to the kindness of the team leader.It's just that Mo Williams, who saw this scene, didn't look very good.

Pacers attack.

Granger held the ball and passed it to Murphy, Qin Yang defended from outside.

Murphy is more than two meters tall, so he can easily shoot without pressure when facing the average back, just like Qin Yang is facing other point guards, but Murphy is under a lot more pressure when facing Qin Yang's defense.

As a result, there was no way, Murphy had to pass the ball to TJ Ford.

Ford didn't have much advantage against Mo Williams, but at this time Murphy went up to the pick-and-roll, and Ford faced Qin Yang in a dislocation.Seeing how tall Qin Yang was, Ford sped up, Qin Yang chased forward but couldn't do anything, Ford touched Qin Yang in an outburst, entered the basket and made a layup.

"Do your defense well."

Mo Williams roared at Qin Yang.

Qin Yang glanced at Mo Williams, but said nothing.

The Cavaliers attacked. Mo Williams took the ball to attack first, but was assisted by Hibbert when he entered the basket. After a layup, Varejao got the rebound. Facing the defense, he made a fake shot and passed the ball to Qin Yang on the side three-point line.

This time, Qin Yang was not open, and Murphy quickly came up to help defend.

But Qin Yang sold again, without caring about Murphy, he jumped up and shot a three-pointer.

Murphy's speed is relatively slow, the pressure of the so-called help defense is not great, and Murphy's bounce is weak and he didn't take off. When Qin Yang provoked it, it was impossible for Murphy to defend in place.

Sure enough, after Qin Yang shot, Murphy's defense had just arrived.

Whoosh!
The three-pointer hit again.

The expression on Qin Yang's face was still very monotonous this time, he just waved his fist with his right hand to express his excitement.

The point difference returned to fifteen points.
