God's hand behind the scenes

Chapter 546 So What If You Score

After returning to Charlotte, Jackson was still brooding about losing the second game, which made Chang Wei angry and funny.Come on, now the second place in the Eastern Conference is the Cavaliers, okay?It would be nice to be able to return home with a score of 1 to 1. Don't even think about sweeping against a team like the Cavaliers. As long as they can no longer occupy the home court advantage, that is the greatest success.

As a good friend, Chang Wei had no choice but to let go of Jackson in private. After all, he is the coach of the Bobcats, and his mood will largely affect the morale of the team.If even the head coach can't get over the failure, how can the team he coaches become a strong army?Maybe he has been worn out by repeated failures.

Jackson also quickly came to his senses, he was not stupid, but there were some unexpected things due to experience.Chang Wei is much better than him in this respect. The chief assistant who has worked under Old Brown for so many years is not in vain.

Seeing the head coach regroup, the Bobcats players became more motivated. This is their home court. Even if the Cavaliers rank one place higher than them in the regular season, they are not in the Time Warner Center Arena in Charlotte. Afraid of anyone.

However, the game is not something you can win without being afraid of your opponent. The key is to adopt reasonable tactical arrangements.Jackson believes that the team's defensive performance in the last game was an important factor in the loss, so this time he plans to pay close attention to the defense, so that the Cavaliers can also taste the iron wall.In his opinion, high-intensity full-court pressing is undoubtedly the best way.

Chang Wei is also in favor of this idea, but in his opinion, the full-court press must be coupled with unlimited defensive changes, and James' passing route must be strangled, and he must be singled out against Ariza. Consider resuming the regular season starting lineup.In Chang Wei's view, a James can't kill the Bobcats, but it's terrible if he drives his teammates.

Jackson is very speechless about Chang Wei's suggestion. After all, he was the one who suggested Allen to start, and now he is the one who suggested to return to the regular start. You have said both pros and cons, so I am the head coach. What are you doing?
Faced with his friend's doubts, Chang Wei smiled and said: "If it is going to be full-court pressing and unlimited defenses, then it would be a waste for Tony and Trevor to play together. It is better to let the two diverge and maintain a confrontation all the time." James' high-intensity defense. Anyway, even if they start together, only one of them needs to match James when the audience is pressing..."

Chang Wei's explanation made Jackson feel a little embarrassed. As a head coach, he didn't expect this. Go slowly!
When Jackson announced the starting lineup for Game [-] at the end of the practice session, there was little noise.After nearly two seasons of cooperation, the players finally know what the coaching staff is like. The adjustment of the starting lineup is completely based on the tactical strategy of the game and the formation of the opponent. There is no question of who is more optimistic.

Of course, everyone knows that Roy is the unshakable leader of the team, and as long as there is no injury or other force majeure, he is definitely the team's starting lineup. No one will adjust Roy in the starting lineup. of.

The Cavaliers also have their own pride as a powerhouse in the Eastern Conference. In their view, the loss in the first game was just an accident. Did they beat the Bobcats without seeing the second game?So before flying to Charlotte, the entire Cavaliers team was full of confidence, ready to give the opponent a little color, and regain their home court advantage by the way.

However, the Cavaliers felt something was wrong at the beginning of the game. After Ilgauskas successfully jumped the ball and West received the ball smoothly, the five Cavaliers on the court were surrounded by a Bobcat player who followed closely. Returning to the starting Jack, he made some small moves where the referee could not see, while trying to break the ball directly in West's hand.

Such a sudden pressing defense undoubtedly caught the Cavaliers by surprise, and West dribbled the ball across the half court almost 8 seconds ago.But when he handed the ball to James, James was also stunned. Although there was only Ariza in front of him, everyone else performed their duties and were optimistic about the player he was facing. Even if James wanted to pass the ball, he had no target.

No way, James can only do it alone with the ball under Ariza's entanglement. Anyway, this is not the first time he has done such a thing. If no one can catch the ball, forget it!But this is exactly what the Bobcats want to see. No matter how good James is, there is only one person. Under the rules and rhythm of modern basketball, a monster like Chamberlain who contributed 100 points by himself has disappeared. It is difficult for James to achieve The height of "Dashuai Zhang" naturally cannot save the team alone.

Coupled with Ariza who vowed to avenge his shame, James had a hard time making every shot, and he didn't have the same sight as in the previous game.Chang Wei nodded secretly on the sidelines. It seems that James' previous performance was just an accident. His shooting is far less than that of Kobe and Jordan. His advantage lies in his strong physical fitness and comprehensive ability.

Now basically the Cavaliers' scoring is on James alone, and the pressure is even greater than in the first game. After all, the Bobcats only wanted to limit him at that time, and the others could not score. is their own problem.But after the Bobcats' defensive strength came up, the Cavaliers' offense immediately fell into a stalemate, and it was difficult to find the ball.

Of course, James' scoring efficiency is not low, because he always relies on his own breakthrough to get close to the basket and score, and he doesn't shoot outside stupidly.Even so, the Cavaliers' offense did not come out at all, it was just James's offense alone.This is the strategy of Jackson and Chang Wei. Let you score alone, and we will admit that you are killed by you, but if you can't be killed, you and your team will suffer. Is it possible that you can still be alone like Chamberlain? Got 100 points?

Less than 5 minutes into the game, the Bobcats took a double-digit lead, giving the game a good start.The Cavaliers wanted to keep their home court, but they didn't succeed. The Bobcats also wanted to keep their home court. In this way, they should be able to grasp the initiative to advance to the final moment of the series, and maybe they can go further by then!
