Super Evolution of Basketball

Chapter 562 Don't double-team easily!

Fortunately, there were only a few minutes, the chaos passed immediately, and it was time for intermission.

The two teams left the field one after another. Whether it was the home team or the visiting team, all the players looked calm until they reached the locker room...

Visiting team locker room.

Everyone in the Cavaliers didn't say a word. At present, the unfavorable situation is so fierce that they swung a heavy hammer and hit the players' chests, smashing them to pieces and seeing gold stars.

The Lakers are about to get the match point, but the Cavaliers have yet to find a way to deal with it. This game has been terrible since the scrimmage.

As the well-deserved core of the team, LeBron James threw the towel on the bench, and then started a speech for nearly 10 minutes. The coaches and players were completely infected by his passionate speech.

Bang Dang, the door of the visiting team's locker room was pushed open vigorously, and the reporters waiting in the corridor swished the camera over.

Teng Teng Teng, followed by the sound of tight footsteps in the corridor, and the players of the Cavaliers ran directly to the field in a row.

Bang, the door was closed again, and a figure wandering outside the team slowly passed in front of the reporter, without squinting and expressionless.

"Kyrie doesn't look right," a reporter whispered.

"Yeah, is there something wrong with the Cavaliers?" Another person echoed.

"Let's follow up quickly, maybe we can dig out something."

"What are you waiting for, hurry up!"

The two reporters let their keen sense of smell and active imagination lead them to follow Owen.

LeBron James led his teammates to trot into the arena. More than a dozen Cavaliers fans who had been waiting at the entrance waved and screamed vigorously. They wanted to pass their voices to the home team and tell them that they are here, and they still have supporters!
LeBron James heard the shout, turned around and shook his fist: "Cleveland!"

The fans yelled in unison: "Cleveland!"

The entrance of the tunnel here is not far from the seats of the Rockets team. Capela was very moved when he saw the scene. While biting a hot dog, he whimpered and said, "Although Cleveland is a small city, the fans there are very loyal."

James Harden couldn't help looking over there. People who knew him would read envy from his eyes at this time. Harden really hoped that he was playing in the finals at this time!

"Okay, the much-anticipated fourth game of the Finals continues. The second half begins. The ball is in the hands of the Lakers. Let's see what Coach Wharton has arranged during the halftime break." Mark Jackson read a set of opening remarks professionally.

The ball belonged to the Lakers. Their first round was very simple. Towns pulled out to play a pick-and-roll with Yuan Qingshan.

Towns got an open space in one step from the free throw line, made a small hit, and a clean mid-range shot continued to widen the point difference.

63 to 51, at this time the Cavaliers are still 12 points behind.

"Don't double-team easily, don't double-team easily." Coach Tyronn Lue muttered from the sidelines. With his volume, the players on the field must not be able to hear it.

"Is the Cavaliers double-teaming right?" O'Neal asked Mark Jackson.

Mark Jackson replied very seriously: "The pick-and-roll tactics have already been played. If you don't double-team Yuan Qingshan at this time, is it a three-pointer for him to shoot? If it were me, I would rather bet on Towns' touch. After all, the two-pointer of an inside player is worth a bet."

O'Neill: "But Towns' mid-range has always been good. If the opponent is Whiteside, Love is really worth a try."

Towns hit the first ball in the third quarter, and he was in high spirits. When passing by Love, he didn't forget to taunt: "Let me go? I'll make you pay the price."

Le Fu's face was gloomy. Tonight, in order to make himself look more aggressive, he deliberately didn't trim his beard, but now with a little disappointed eyes, he doesn't look strong at all, but a little downcast.

LeBron James ran over from the bottom corner and said to Irving: "Kyrie, next time you have to squeeze more firmly, if you can't break Yuan Qingshan's pick-and-roll, we will suffer a lot."

Kyrie Irving didn't answer, but pulled up his collar and wiped his sweat.

LeBron James has long been used to Irving's attitude. He knew that Irving had listened to it, so he stopped struggling and ran to the 45-degree position on the left wing of the frontcourt.

For the Lakers' offense, this time Yuan Qingshan will go in the middle and accelerate.

Kyrie Irving was prepared in his heart, but he still couldn't stop Yuan Qingshan. His speed and agility were not good enough. Under normal circumstances, he couldn't stop him at all.

Yuan Qingshan used the "three-stage acceleration" skill, and Owen could barely keep up with the first acceleration. Yuan Qingshan wanted to rush to the right, but Owen took a step to the left.

Change direction!

Yuan Qingshan used the acceleration skill for the second time, and his body suddenly sank to the left, and he was about to dodge a body.

In desperation, Owen had no choice but to raise his hand and grab Yuan Qingshan's back.

Yuan Qingshan staggered back a few steps under Owen's pull, almost spraining his left foot.

Beep, the referee blows the whistle, and Kyrie Irving is called for a foul.

Boos immediately erupted from the auditorium. This guy from the Cavaliers was retaliating. He didn't know how to guard Yuan Qingshan anymore, so he blatantly violated Yuan Qingshan.

Owen didn't seem to hear, pushed Yuan Qingshan away, walked to the sideline and took a good position.

O'Neal said: "This doesn't look like a regular tactical foul. It's only been a while since the third quarter. It's not rational to help the Lakers accumulate the number of fouls now."

Mark Jackson said: "Sensible? Do you think Kyrie Irving is still sane to Shangyuan Qingshan?"

O'Neill did not answer this question, because the answer is obvious, and if he said too much, he would be suspected of criticizing the other party.

In short, Irving's performance in this series was abnormal, completely missing the level of last year's Finals against the Warriors.

Barkley on one side also wanted to make some comments, but there were loud boos from the audience behind them.

The big screen was replaying Owen's foul, and the slow playback showed that Yuan Qingshan's left foot was just a little bit sprained, and when the foot touched the floor, it bent to 30 degrees.

"Expel, expel!"

"Expel, expel!"

The Lakers fans were unrelenting. They absolutely didn't want to see Yuan Qingshan suffer even the slightest injury during the game. Some fans even wanted to ensure Yuan Qingshan's health rather than the championship.

O'Neill: "It's not an expulsion. I think it's just a common foul. Let's see what Jarvie says."

The big screen was shown to the referee center, and the oil-headed referee Jia Wei played the replay frame by frame, and then explained to the fans in front of the TV that this was indeed a common foul, and Yuan Qingshan almost sprained his ankle, which was purely accidental.

O'Neal: "Look, what did I say?"

As soon as he finished speaking, a dissatisfied cry came from behind him: "Shaq, you are a legend of the Lakers, and you should always be on the side of the Lakers."

O'Neill turned around and found that the person pointing at him was a white-haired fan. The old man looked very angry, but it should be more because of Irving's foul, and now it only involves O'Neill.

O'Neill pointed in the direction of the big screen and said, "We should respect the opinion of the referee center. Also, your hearing is really good."

"Forget it, you've turned bad a long time ago!" The old man waved his hands and ignored O'Neill.

Mark Jackson smiled slyly: "The fans in Los Angeles are really nice."

Barkley answered: "Shaq, judging by his age, he should have watched your game back then."

O'Neill nodded: "Isn't it."
