God's hand behind the scenes

Chapter 515 Roy VS Zhan Huang ([-])

Mike Brown trusted James as much as Jackson trusted Roy.During the intermission, he hurriedly said to James: "LeBron, I know you are tired now, but in the fourth quarter you have to guard Roy like you did in the first quarter, if you can limit his performance , then we will win this game, do you understand?"

Here, Jackson also earnestly told Roy: "It is difficult for us to restrain James on the defensive end, but I hope you can shoulder the heavy responsibility on the offensive end, and at the same time guide the firepower of your teammates. Now both the enemy and us are at the same time. At the starting line, success or failure lies in the last 12 minutes. I will give you a 2-minute break, so prepare yourself first!"

It's not that Jackson didn't want Roy to fight at the beginning, but Roy encountered strict defense from the Cavaliers in the first three quarters. Although he had already hit a quasi-double-double, it was at the cost of consuming a lot of energy.If he is still allowed to play the full 12 minutes in the fourth quarter, even if he can sustain it physically, his shooting percentage will definitely drop significantly, and the trend of the game will not be good at that time.

Therefore, Jackson boldly set up a substitute lineup in the fourth quarter, which surprised many experts who followed the game. Isn't it courting death to be on the bench now?Could it be that the entire Bobcats team has swelled to the point of looking down on the Cavaliers?

Since Jackson used the bench to fight against the opponent's main force, Allen became the main force to defend James.Chang Wei watched the performance of this future defensive champion from the sidelines, and couldn't help nodding his head slightly.In the eyes of others, Allen's defense is not commendable, because James is still scoring consecutive points, but Chang Wei believes that Allen's defense is successful from a certain point of view.

On the court, he relied on his tenacious style to keep James out of the three-second zone, forcing him to use his mid-range shooting, which he was not very good at, to solve the problem.If it weren't for James' mid-range shot that suddenly felt hot, it would be difficult for him to take advantage of Allen. If Allen was to defend James in the next game, Chang Wei would not believe that the little emperor still had such a touch.

Although James continued to score under strict defense, he failed to help the Cavaliers widen the point difference because of the inside combination of Raheem and Lee.James' mid-range shots happen to be very accurate. However, the two of them have always been quite accurate in their mid-range shots.

By the time the fourth quarter passed 2 minutes, the Bobcats were only slightly behind 75 to 78, which was completely within the acceptable range.Jackson let out a long sigh of relief, and took advantage of the dead ball to replace the starting lineup, but at the same time he let Allen sit back on the bench, obviously not seeing the deep meaning of Allen defending James before .

Chang Wei shrugged. Of course he couldn't tell Jackson his opinion directly now, even if the latter would definitely not care.But in a team, the authority of the head coach must be established. If Chang Wei raises objections, it will cause the players to fall into a dilemma. It is better to see if Roy can save the team from the fire.

Sure enough, this steady rookie lived up to everyone's expectations. As soon as he came on the court, he singled out James very toughly, and suddenly jumped up and shot after a series of fake moves.James was a bit slow in trying to block the shot, and nine times out of ten he would be called a foul if he tried to jump again. Although he only had three personal fouls on him now, it would be better if he could get one less.

Roy's three-pointer went straight into the basket like eyes, helping the Bobcats tie the score.However, he did not celebrate with his teammates, but urged everyone to quickly return to defense, trying to hold the Cavaliers' next attack.

But James would not give them such an opportunity. He still used his strength to break through, leaning on Ariza and crushing all the way to the inside line. He turned around and sent the basketball into the basket lightly beside Milicic.Chang Wei couldn't help covering his forehead. It seemed that the last quarter of the game was about to turn into a confrontation between the two superstars, but he didn't know if Roy could still fight.

As the main player of the Bobcats, it is his duty to face Roy. He simply turned on the singles mode, scoring consecutive points from inside and outside shots.James did not let Roy focus on the front. He also tried his best on both ends of the offense and defense, which made Mike Brown on the sidelines very pleased.James has always liked to play for his teammates, and now he really wants to compete with the opponent.

The scores of Roy and James continued to rise, and the Bobcats and Cavaliers also took the lead alternately. Such a close game made the enthusiasm of the fans even more.Although they support their home team in their hearts, they also respect the Bobcats who can compete with the Cavaliers, and this is also earned by the Bobcats players with their own performance, although it is not far from conquering Kecheng.

However, O'Neal, who had been troubled at this time, stepped forward. He succeeded in two consecutive singles against Milicic, helping the Cavaliers to temporarily escape from the predicament.Jackson was stunned, but it was no wonder Milicic. Although he could play tricks on Howard with his footsteps, O'Neal's experience was not comparable to Howard's, and his skills were not lacking. It is normal for him to succeed in singles.But this timing makes the Bobcats feel very tricky, the Cavaliers clearly have a certain advantage.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, James continued to break through Ariza and made layups, and the Cavaliers' lead instantly expanded to 8 points.Although Roy still led his teammates to try their best to regain the initiative on the field, the Cavaliers did not give them any chance.15.6 seconds before the end of the game, Roy hit another three-pointer at a 45-degree angle on the flank, raising his score to 32 points. However, the outcome of the game could not be changed. It's just for saving face.

In the last ten seconds or so, the Cavaliers stopped playing. After Gibson dribbled the ball through halftime, the final whistle sounded shortly after. The Cavaliers defeated the Bobcats 101-95 at home and won the series. first victory.And their top star James scored 44 points, 10 rebounds and 12 assists in a large triple-double, which is undoubtedly the MVP of this game.

Although the Bobcats lost their first playoff game since the establishment of the team, the performance of the head star Roy is still remarkable.The rookie did not fall behind in the confrontation with James. He scored 5 three-pointers and scored 32 points, 7 rebounds and 11 assists. The Bobcats lost only 6 points in the end. His own strength.

The team lost, but he had already won, which was the greatest consolation for Chang Wei.
