Chapter 130 A Different Hornet
The Hornets will be the next four consecutive owners, against the Cleveland Cavaliers, Los Angeles Clippers, Golden State Warriors and New Jersey Nets respectively.

On October 10, the Hornets played against the Cleveland Cavaliers at home. After James joined the Heat, the gap between the two teams was obvious. No one was optimistic that the Cavaliers could bring any threat to the Hornets.

After chasing 20 points in the game and losing to the Thunder, New Orleans fans seemed to see the light, so the tickets had already been sold out. From this point of view, the Hornets, which have been losing money for many years, hope to make a profit this season.

Hornets starters: Paul, Bradley, Paul George, David West, Whiteside.

After seeing the power of this lineup in the previous game, Monty Williams decisively put Belinelli and Okafor on the bench.

Cavaliers starters: Ramon Sessions, Anthony Parker, Jamario Moon, JJ Hickson, Ryan Hollins

After James left, the Cavaliers obviously wanted to play badly. The player Presti has only heard of it, but has not studied it.

Whiteside won with a jump ball, Paul took it to the frontcourt, George stood outside the corner three-point line, Whiteside quickly occupied the basket, and West also stood in the penalty area, Paul went to the top of the arc, David West covered!

Take the cover and walk in, West disassembles it and moves sideways!
JJ Hickson and teammates switch defenses to chase Paul!
Paul passes the ball to West!

dislocation!Ignore the defender's defense!

Immediately shot!

hit!

Since Williams saw the power of this tactic in the last game, this tactic will always be reviewed every time during tactical training. Now it seems that this tactic is very proficient.

The pick-and-roll between Paul and West is unsolvable for the Cavaliers. Both Paul and West have excellent shooting abilities.

The Cavaliers were attacking, and guard Ramon Sessions brought him to the front to face Paul. He suddenly accelerated and wanted to break into the penalty area!

However, Paul blocked the breakthrough route perfectly and couldn't get through it at all. Paul's defensive strategy did not let go.
There was no way to pass to Anthony Parker, and Bradley immediately just posted the defense to the physical confrontation,

Dribble breakthrough!

Snapped!Be broken!
Anthony Parker's offense is not worth mentioning against Bradley's defense!
Bradley sprints after getting the ball!
No one in front, to the basket!

Easy layup!

Sessions took the ball to the top of the arc and went to the weak side, called a screen and went in!

Big West double-teams decisively!Cavaliers shoot badly, let them shoot!

The ball is passed to JJ Hickson!
Empty seat!

After looking at it for a while, I voted!

Finally hit!

Although JJ Hickson hits this mid-range shot, the Hornets will not change their defensive strategy. JJ Hickson's mid-range shot is only a poor 25%, and it is unknown when the next one will be hit.

The Hornets attacked, Paul and Paul George played a pick-and-roll to the right in the middle, attracting Jamalio Moon to switch defenses and pass back to the middle.

George took a second, ignored the interference of the guard, and made a high mid-range shot.

David Wesley, who just became the Hornets commentator, said: "It's a very simple cooperation, but it's very effective."

Partner Doug Collins said: "Paul George played very well in the last game, and he hit again just now. It seems that his hand is in good condition today."

In the previous life, Doug Collins resigned at this time to become the head coach of the 76ers, but now the 76ers have not hired Doug Collins.

Monty Williams looked at Paul George on the court and smiled unconsciously.

When I first became the head coach of the Hornets, I was still worrying about the position of the small forward. Unexpectedly, the small forward I was most looking forward to was in the formation.

Excellent wingspan, positive attitude, excellent defense, good shooting, can play off the ball, and can also attack with the ball. Thinking of this, Presti, who looked at the stands, deserves to be known as the most vicious person in the league.

The Cavaliers attack, JJ Silk wants to single out, Whiteside retreats, forming a double-team under the basket, JJ Silk splits the ball to the middle.Sessions scored mainly by attacking the basket. His shooting range was too short, and he didn't dare to shoot when he was open.

Williams read Sessions' profile and decisively let Sessions go. Whiteside is fast, relying on his movement speed and excellent blocking and defense ability to control the penalty area.

Because the Hornets' lineup has everything except the current Whiteside who has no shooting ability, so all the big men of the Cavaliers went out. Whiteside easily grabbed the rebound and passed it to Paul with one move of both hands! .

Paul and West played a pick-and-roll outside the three-point line, and took two steps to the right to attract the defense to pass back. West received the ball and faced JJ Silk without pressure. He protected the ball and observed his teammates' running positions.
George easily got rid of Jamario Moon, came out to pass the ball to Paul, and hit a three-pointer with no one in front of him.

The Cavaliers attacked, Sessions sprinted with all his strength after getting the ball, but Paul followed him tightly, unable to get rid of it, and immediately scored Anthony Parker on the right. Parker received the ball and wanted to pay back a three-pointer, but Bradley quickly returned it. Without any chance, he passed the ball to JJ Silk,
I voted directly and missed!
The ball was picked up by Paul George.

The Hornets' positional battle, perhaps because they were too excited to play, Paul George did not pass the ball to Paul, but dribbled it to the frontcourt by himself,

Facing Jamalio Moon, continuous crossover!

Start suddenly!

Only kill the basket!

Take two steps to the free throw line and fly high!
JJ Silk helps defend and jumps up!

To seal! !

Boom! ! ! !

George Tomahawk overturns JJ Silk! ! !
Beep, Shilk fouled, 2+1!!!!
George, who landed, clenched his fist and roared!

"WOW! My GOd!" David Wesley covered his head in disbelief, eyes wide open, looking at Collins.

"Extraordinary talent, extraordinary talent! This is a talent visible to the naked eye. I can guarantee that the future top small forward in the league will have a position for George," Collins kept admiring.

The fans at the scene were boiling, stood up and raised their hands to cheer!They have a hunch that this year's playoffs will be one step closer!
The players on the bench jumped up excitedly and threw the towel!
The players on the field hugged George to celebrate!

Seeing George's performance just now, Presti suddenly returned to the scene where George dunked the birdman!
David Wesley laughed and said: "I don't know if the owner of the first nine draft picks will regret it, haha."

The knight called a timeout!If the game continues like this, it will collapse in the first quarter. Although it is going to be bad, it can't be so ugly.
In just a few minutes of the opening, the Hornets had established a 9-point lead.
