Chapter 222 The Broken Ball

Because the Lakers are playing away, James did not travel with the team, but chose to recuperate in Los Angeles.

The Lakers said that James only suffered a strained abdomen, and the injury will be fine after a week or two.

As for whether this is the case, no one knows.

Anyway.

Now the Lakers really need James.

Cavaliers starting lineup: Rondo, Kuzma, Doncic, Nuwaba and Ayton.

Lakers starting lineup: Brandon Ingram, Pope, Lonzo Ball, Josh Hart, JaVale McGee.

That's right.

Jiang Wudi took a break for this match.

After all, after playing so many games, it's time to give Jiang Wudi a holiday.

And the Lakers are not considered a threatening team, simply, they are on vacation.

Take a vacation and take a vacation.

It's paid anyway.

Jiang Wudi sat on the bench in a suit, chatting with Tai Lunlu.

At the beginning, McGee won the ball for the Lakers, and then on the offensive end, after Ayton was stuck, the ball brother Ball passed the ball to McGee, McGee hit Ayton with his back, and finally shot with a fadeaway.

Yes.

You read it right.

McGee also played a mid-range shot.

During the period when James was injured, the Lakers still had a few bright spots, such as McGee, who increased his mid-range shots, and Ingram, who averaged 25+ per game.

McGee really thought about changing himself. You can even see such shots this season. When the Lakers trailed by one or two points, McGee was supposed to support him from outside the three-point line, but in the end he made a three-pointer himself.

Although that one three-point shot missed.

But McGee at least dared to shoot three-pointers.

This is enough.

Ball transfer.

Rondo also held the ball outside the three-point line to face his brother Ball's defense. He skillfully dribbled the ball under the crotch. After a random back dribble, he broke through from Ball's left side and finally made a successful layup.

But after that, the Lakers' offense was in trouble again.

Because they played long balls.

Yes.

The long pass is indeed beautiful and imposing.

But it's also easy to make mistakes.

This is not.

Hart wanted to pass a long pass to Ball, but was intercepted by Kuzma and completed a three-point attack.

On the other side, the ball brother Ball wanted to pass the ball from the left three-point line to Hart's right outside the three-point line, but was intercepted again. Then, in desperation, McGee then adopted foul tactics.

Because there were no fouls, I had to go to the tee.

"The Lakers' defense in this game is very bad. The Cavaliers without Jiang Wudi have completed many breakthroughs against the Lakers. Their insides give people the feeling that they have no defense!"

"I hope Wharton can adjust it!"

As soon as the commentary finished, Wharton actually called a timeout.

After returning from the timeout, the Lakers' defense has indeed improved a lot, and the reason for the change is Chandler's playing.

Chandler's strength in zone defense is beyond doubt.

With him, it becomes very difficult for many Cavaliers players to break through to the inside.

Moreover, Chandler has a lot of experience, if you break through, he can also cause you to foul.

The ball brother Ball passed the ball to Chandler who was stuck inside.

Chandler singled out Ayton with the ball. He felt that it was necessary to teach Ayton a lesson. I believe Jiang Wudi would also like to see him teach Ayton a lesson.

With a wave of operation, Chandler directly pushed Ayton to the basket, then turned around to complete the dunk, and directly dunked Ayton.

"Man, you have to study hard, this is the NBA!" Chandler said to Ayton.

Ayton replied to him: "Thank you, we are leading now!"

28-17.
With 3 minutes left in the first quarter, Ayton does have reason to be proud.

Chandler was speechless at Ayton's words.

Row.

Your team is leading, you guys are awesome.

The teams on both sides also made substitutions one after another. For example, Ingram went down and Beasley came up.

The highlight moment for Beasley this season was when he scored 25 points off the bench in the Christmas game. Since then, the Lakers suddenly felt that Beasley seems to be a good guy who can be trained and trained. He can't be the core of the team, at least he can become the sixth man in the bench.

It's a pity.

The reason why it is said that the Christmas game was Beasley's highlight moment is that in the next few games, his playing time has increased under Wharton's adjustment, but his statistics have gradually declined.

Seeing this, the Lakers basically have no patience.

They were not a very patient team, otherwise, they would not have given up on Russell and Jiang Wudi.

The ball brother Ball also deliberately passed the ball to Beasley, and it was also Anthony who had just been replaced for Beasley to play singles.

Face-to-face singles against Anthony, after Beasley tried it out, he directly shot a jumper, but unfortunately, he didn't hit it.

The Cavaliers' offense didn't pan out either.

On the other hand, ball brother Ball continued to play for Beasley, and Beasley made another shot from outside the three-point line.

cough cough...

Really strike the iron again.

This feeling made Jiang Wudi, who was watching the game below, shake his head.

Therefore, this player must have a self-disciplined heart, always touch those messy things, and the one who will fall in the end is just himself.

What is it like to be famous at a young age?
There are so many examples out there before, so you don't learn from them even once?

idiot.

"I've seen this game, and Beasley is in trouble!"

"It's so exciting. I want to see Beasley continue to forge, but I'm in a hurry to urinate. Who wants to go to the bathroom instead of me!"

"Beasley was able to score in the first quarter, and I ate shit on my head!"

"Mom and Dad, there are people cheating on eating and drinking!"

"If you want to eat shit, just say it, why do you have to pretend to make demands!"

Beasley naturally scored in the first quarter, but he was hit by a thug, and then made two free throws and scored 1 point.

and so.

That old man can cheat food and drink.

首节打完，湖人队让骑士投出了58.3%投篮命中率（24投14中），三分球命中率也高达57.1%（7投4中）。

The total score was 33-22.
Wharton expressed his helplessness.

All the starters of the Lakers later went down to rest except for the ball brother Ball.

At this time, ball brother Ball broke out inexplicably, two three-pointers and a breakthrough scored 2+1, directly leading the Lakers to a 9-0 offensive climax.

It's not over yet.

After Tyronn Lue called a timeout to arrange tactics and then returned to the field, the ball brother Ball seemed to have an epiphany again, leading the Lakers to start a wave of offensive frenzy, and once again hit 15-9.

that's it.

The total score became 48-40.
The Lakers are only 8 points behind the Cavaliers.

Seeing the ball brother Ball who broke out inexplicably in the second quarter, everyone was dumbfounded.
