I just play ball

Chapter 39 Calm Analysis Section Guidance

"Of course, let them rest well. We have the ability and confidence to deal with the Cavaliers."

Li Yue patted his chest and nodded, his tone full of confidence, as if he would take on a simple task like drinking half a bowl of boiled water next time.

Don't get stuck between your teeth and it's done!

But in fact, he didn't know what to do. It's just that when it comes to this matter, the coach and teammates are waiting, how can he be cowardly?
What's more, this is an excellent opportunity to prove his ability to lead the team alone. Without Kobe and other four star players, those critics can find no reason to deny themselves.

Is it forced to say that the knight is too good?
But it is really possible, just like LeBron won the championship in 12. Some people belittled it because the Thunder's third young man was too young. If it were the experienced Spurs, the Heat would definitely not be able to beat it.

"Okay, we will make a decision based on the actual situation at that time. Maybe the four of them will start the battle first, but the total time will not be too long. You can make preparations to lead the team alone in advance." Phil Weber got up and walked away.

Li Yue thought to himself.

The four main players of the Lakers do need to take turns, especially Gasol and Nash. They are too old and have been plagued by injuries this season and have missed a lot of games. You need to be there to watch.
Howard's back injury has never healed, but Kobe has remained in good condition and is exhausted.

But if you really only rely on him and the second team against the Cavaliers, it will be very difficult to win.

Because although the Cavaliers are ranked third from the bottom in the league, the biggest gap between any two NBA teams is often only the stars. The Lakers lost four stars at once, and the offensive and defensive system was completely disintegrated, which is basically equivalent to martial arts at their own expense.

Thinking of this, Li Yue took out his mobile phone to check the information, but he was too tired after two high-intensity games, and his tiredness surged up like a tide, so he just closed his eyes and took a nap.

...

At about ten o'clock, the Lakers returned to the hotel.

After a simple snack, Howard and the others put on handsome casual suits, sang RAP and whistled, and went to Li Yue's room as a group to invite him, claiming to take him to experience the real American nightclub culture.

As a seaside tourist city, Miami has a pleasant climate and beautiful scenery. It also has many famous nightclubs like New York, Los Angeles, Las Vegas and other big cities. .

The Mavericks played the finals in Miami in 06. Many players couldn't resist going out to have fun, which affected the state of the game more or less. So when it came to the 11 finals, coach Rick Carlisle was directly guarding the hotel entrance.

Li Yue also wanted to see and see, but it was related to whether he led the team to win for the first time, so he could only resist his curiosity and choose to decline.

After everyone left, he closed the door, took out his laptop, and put it on the table to log in to his personal mailbox and data website.

He has received many analysis of the Cavaliers' video games in the past two years, provided by the team's video editors Berdahn and Patrick, and the time range covers the last two years, that is, after Byron Scott and Irving took over.

After reading a few paragraphs casually, he found two fatal problems of the Cavaliers: very poor offense and very, very poor defense.

After a little analysis, I found that the problem of offensive ratio lies with the coach. Byron Scott has never been good at training offense, but as a coach, he was so lucky that he was so lucky that he first met historical point guard Kidd in the Nets. system, advanced to the finals twice lying down; then met historical point guard Paul in the Hornets, relying on the retro position system, confusedly became the best coach.

Now Byron Scott has only the young Kyrie Irving under him, and other players are obviously not as good as the Nets and Hornets.

The defensive problem lies in the players. First of all, the overall atmosphere of the bad team is not good, and the defensive willingness and concentration are not strong enough. Irving and Dion Waiters are completely colanders. The highly anticipated Tristan Thompson has not yet grown up, and eventually led the team to average 101.2 points per game, ranking sixth in the league.

But if Kobe and others are absent, the situation of the Lakers and the Cavaliers is not much: a ball-handling core plus a group of players with obvious shortcomings. At that time, the scene will mostly be pecking at each other.

After the analysis, Li Yue tapped on the keylogger, intending to archive and backup it for future reference.

While writing, the doorbell rang, and he got up and opened it. Kobe was carrying a bottle of wine and two boxes.

According to Kobe, the wine was to wake up the hotel staff in advance, and it was taken out to celebrate after the victory.

The two sat in front of the sofa and took out the cups, poured them in, shook them slightly, and toasted to each other.

"It's so cool! It feels so good to beat the defending champion and end the losing streak at the same time." Kobe's tone was still full of excitement.

Thinking of LeBron's invitation to the finals, Li Yue said with a smile: "We still have a chance to win another round!"

Kobe was stunned for a moment when he heard the words, and then he reacted and nodded heavily with excitement on his face.

While chatting, Kobe pointed to his notebook and asked, "Are you preparing for the game against the Cavaliers?"

"Yes, I heard from Phil that the few of you may take turns, so analyze the offensive and defensive characteristics of the Cavaliers in advance."

"Paul and Steve can take turns. They are in special situations, but I won't, unless my physical condition is really bad. As long as I can play, I will play for a few minutes. Many fans come to watch my game. It may be once in a lifetime. , I can't let them down easily." Kobe waved his hand, as if he was determined to appear on stage.

"That's true, for the fans." Li Yue raised his glass.

"For the fans." Bryant also raised his glass.

In a blink of an eye, the two glasses of wine bottomed out. Li Yue said that it was OK, and drinking more would affect work and rest.

Kobe agreed, and the two immediately put away their cups and studied the offensive and defensive characteristics of the Cavaliers together.

After watching a few videos, Kobe smiled and shook his head,

"This kind of team is easy to deal with. Dion Waiters and Kyrie Irving are obviously fighting. Both of them want to be the boss, but they don't have the strength and determination to be the boss. We can use the front and focus on Dion. Make it difficult for him to get a shot, so that once he gets a shot, there is a high probability that he will rush to shoot, and the success rate will definitely not be too high, which will lead us to get more fast break opportunities and further drag down the Cavaliers defense by the way."

"Wonderful!"

Li Yue couldn't help clapping his hands in praise. The Cavaliers mainly rely on these two to attack, and Dion West likes to shoot three-pointers, and his shooting percentage is special, almost perfect fit. You can definitely give it a try.

This method is equivalent to a replica of "Don't be afraid of opponents like gods, but teammates like pigs". In addition to various basic theories in defense, Kobe also has a set of tricks and psychological warfare.

"The other thing is that this kind of team lacks resilience. If we lead by more than [-] points in the first quarter, they will probably give up." Bryant said.
