Chapter 17 The Arrival of the Great War
Among the Cavaliers, Delonte West, Mo Williams and Qin Yang had the worst relationship. Even if LeBron made peace once, the three rarely communicated internally.

But what Qin Yang has to admit is that both Mo Williams and Delonte West are very good players.

Delonte is a very good defender, with a good level of personal defense, passing and shooting are above the passing line, and he is a very qualified 3D player, while Mo Williams is even better in comparison.

Mo Williams, who can compete for the boss in the Bucks, is extremely accurate in the mid-range emergency stop jumper.

During the training in the team, Qin Yang was dumbfounded.

With this move, Mo Williams beat almost everyone in the team.Mo Williams is good at breakthroughs, the emergency stop jumper is extremely accurate, and the three-pointer is not bad, so it is difficult to defend.

As the point guard who controls the team's offense, Qin Yang didn't take the initiative to attack, and handed the first ball to Mo Williams who was standing next to him.

Mo Williams started a single against an unknown player.

But... an embarrassing scene appeared, and Mo Williams was capped on the first ball.

This well-known defensive player is very strong, with strong height, speed, and strength. Under the strong physical collision, Mo Williams played very poorly.

Two goals in a row, Mo Williams failed to score.

Qin Yang began to change tactics.

Varejao stepped forward to pick and roll and Qin Yang used the pick and roll to make a direct three-pointer.

There is no pass back, no misplacement, Qin Yang shot so willfully.

Whoosh!
A three-pointer was hit.

Everyone has nothing to say, this is not the first time Qin Yang has made a second shot of this kind of three-pointer. The Cavaliers teammates are familiar with it. Varejao did not rush to leave when the pick-and-roll, catching the ball or shooting, but a very solid pick-and-roll.

With such space, Qin Yang shot without hesitation.

Qin Yang's current strength is not strong. If someone defends close to him, Qin Yang will not have a good chance to make a shot. Even as long as someone follows closely, Qin Yang will not be able to make a three-pointer.

This is Qin Yang's weakness, but... Qin Yang is very smart and knows how to play.

Varejao and Qin Yang have a good relationship and know the pick and roll.

With the help of the space created by the pick-and-roll, Qin Yang hid behind Varejao and shot.Defensive players have nothing to do.

Two consecutive three-pointers were shot, and the faces of the Bucks' two players were ugly. On the next ball, Qin Yang made a shooting posture after the pick-and-roll, and then directly broke through.

This breakthrough caught him off guard.

The players next to Mo Williams rushed to help defend, Qin Yang made a random pass, and Mo Williams got the pass from Qin Yang to attack the basket and score.

The Bucks' offense is also good, but the point difference between the two sides is gradually increasing.

In the fourth quarter, LeBron played again and took the Bucks away in waves.

In this game, LeBron once again scored 41 points, 7 assists and 5 rebounds, shining in the audience. This performance is simply desperate.

For the Cavaliers, this performance is admirable.

At the beginning of the season, LeBron James averaged 35 points, 5 assists and 5 rebounds per game, which is simply against the sky.

Although many people know that the scoring average will definitely decrease as the game continues, but this cannot stop the media from touting LeBron James.

"The emperor has exploded in the new season, and the Cavaliers are expected to win the championship this year."

"The strongest data in history, LeBron James' season as a god."

…………

Although Qin Yang's heart was sour, no matter what, LeBron's statistics and on-court performance were there, and no one had any objections.

Even in private, Varejao complained less.

Varejao once said before that LeBron is always given preferential treatment in defense, allowing others to return visits and defending the easiest players to defend.

Well, this is really the case in the Cavaliers' tactics.

But no one can say this kind of thing, as the core has such preferential treatment.

The simplest reason is that the current configuration of the Cavaliers, both inside and outside, are all shooters who can open up space. This lineup is convenient for LeBron to break through to the basket and attack.

LeBron's shooting is terrible, making less than [-]% of his three-pointers this season...  

For a team with LeBron at its core, in order to achieve results, other players must be good at shooting. Big Z, Mo Williams, and Delonte West are all like this.

Qin Yang was able to get the chance because of his three-pointers.

After the game, the Cavaliers took a day off.

On this day, the team conducted simple recovery training and ushered in a heavyweight game at home.

On the 13th, they played against the Nuggets at home.

The Nuggets are a strong team. After the Nuggets chose rookie Carmelo Anthony in 03, they entered the playoffs. Although they did not go far in the playoffs, the strength of the Nuggets can be seen.

This offseason, the joining of Billups surprised everyone even more.

After Billups joined, the Nuggets have won four consecutive victories, and their strength is the best in the league.Before the game started, the game was widely watched.

TNT news:

"The tactics and player configuration of the Nuggets and Cavaliers have reached a peak. There is no doubt that these two teams will be the favorites for the championship in this year's playoffs. This will be an extremely exciting game."

ESPN:

"03 Platinum generation king duel, LeBron James VS Carmelo Anthony."

"In the 03 draft, there were many superstars in the league. At the small forward position, the most outstanding ones are LeBron James and Carmelo Anthony. We all know that these two are good friends, but as one of the best small forwards in NBA history, LeBron James and Carmelo Anthony are lifelong enemies."

"From the first year of entering the NBA in the battle for the best rookie, the two began to face each other, but it was obvious that Carmelo Anthony lost slightly when he had the advantage. In the later games, the gap between the two teams made the game lose a lot of attention. But with the joining of Billups, the duel between the two super teams and super small forwards is even more exciting."

…………

All the media and fans are paying attention to this game, and internally, LeBron James' attitude is also very serious.

Everyone on the team can see that LeBron is bound to win this game.

Qin Yang's mentality is very calm. As a substitute who only guarantees playing time, he can't play a key role in this game.

So, just play normally.

Before the game, LeBron James accepted an interview with the Cleveland Candide:
"This will be a wonderful game. I think so. Carmelo Anthony is a very good player. He is the representative of the small forward position. I admire him very much. We are good friends. Billups is also a championship-level point guard. It makes my blood boil to compete with them."

"But we're ready, everyone is ready, and we're going to tell everyone that Cleveland welcomes them and that the Cavaliers are the best."
