Devil shooting guard in basketball

Chapter 492 Loose Defense (13)

This season hasn't started yet, and the Cavaliers lost James first.

Without LeBron all of a sudden, the fans ridiculed, the most uncomfortable person may be Coach Lu.

Because he doesn't know who to give the ball to in the game now.

The players pass the ball now, looking for James first.If he's not on the field, look for him on the bench.

But now LeBron is not on the team at all, and the Lakers are now stepping up communication with the Pelicans.

If Davis can be traded this season, then their season will be perfect~
The Cavaliers are quite satisfied with the players from the Lakers.

Due to Clarkson's outstanding performance during the Scott period, he is likely to become the new captain-level player in the team!

Irving was also traded away, so at the center, currently only Love is a well-deserved player in the team.

On the striker line, currently Crowder and Smith may have one of them who will become the main striker this season.

In terms of outside scoring, there are now players like Korver, Smith, and Clarkson.

Nance Jr. played well at the basket when he was with the Lakers, and both Love and Tristan can defend.

The team flew directly to Cleveland. After a short rest in the hotel in the afternoon, the players began to go to the arena for training.

The biggest highlight of this game, apart from how the Cavaliers will play without LeBron, is the duel between Li Feng and Clarkson, two shooting guards.

At the beginning of last season, Li Feng and Clarkson argued for a long time about who would be the No. [-] Lakers player.

In the end, Clarkson was reimbursed for the season.

Li Feng and Kobe then won the season championship together.

At the end of last season, Clarkson also reconciled with Li Feng.

Although he can't play with the Lakers this season, Clarkson's career can also be viewed from another angle.

One team, the boss has left.

When the team needs to make adjustments, can Clarkson, who has performed well in his own team before, be qualified to be the new leader of Cleveland?
Booker found some teammates watching him from time to time during training today.

He and Roberto had a big fight in the first half of the last game.

In the second half of the game, Li Feng and Simmons, Kuzma and the others barely pulled the point difference back to single digits.

Booker wasn't angry either, because they really did something wrong.

Coach Brown feels a little drifting during this time~
Their team played very well in the preseason.Needless to say, Li Feng, neither the team nor their coaching staff misread Li Feng as a player.

What surprised them most was the teenager Kuzma who was traded from the Lakers!

The psychological maturity of this player far exceeded their expectations!

It can also be said that Kuzma's feeling and consciousness on the court are far superior to players of the same age!
Such a player is a typical person who is not the strongest, but can play very good statistics.

But what worries him a little is that the atmosphere inside the team is still not good.

Under the promotion of the Cavaliers a few days ago, the attendance rate of the fans who came to the game today is as high as 65%!

Already impressive.

Irving went to the Nets, LeBron went to the Lakers, Love is a player valued by the media.

In the preseason, the Cavaliers this season had no rookies.

So at this time, they have already started training soldiers!
The team played seriously, but the effect was not obvious.

Li Feng: "Are you coming to the Cavaliers?"

Clarkson: "I said the team is likely to trade me?"

Li Feng: "Are you a prophet? So accurate?"

Clarkson: "I just watched a lot of news while recuperating.

Whether it is the predictions of the fans, the analysis of the media, or the operation of our team for several months, it shows that the team is eager to transform.

In this case, players like you have been offered salary cut arrangements.

Our players will be traded by the team even more. "

Recalling last season, it is true that Nance Jr. and Calderon didn't use much in the later stage.

Li Feng: "I wish you a good development in the Cavaliers! This is an opportunity for you~"

Clarkson: "I will work hard, just change the team. I am already ready!"

During the warm-up before the game, Li Feng chatted with Clarkson.

The two are now friends.

Now that Clarkson wanted to open his mind, Li Feng didn't need to keep a distance from him.

Just like Booker of your own team now, since you don't like me.

Then why should I insist on catering to you?
After a while, the starting players from both sides came to the field. Today, the Cavaliers are Love, Nance, Hood, Calderon and Smith!
Clarkson sat off the court.

The 76ers are Embiid, Ilyasova, Holmes, Li Feng and Simmons in order!

At the beginning of the game, Love grabbed the rebound first and then passed the ball to Smith.

LeBron is not on the team, and his spirits are a lot lower.

Because this season he seems to have foreseen the fate of his team!

After receiving a pass from his teammate, he passed halftime immediately, but Li Feng chased him directly!
JR wanted to talk to Li Feng several times, but he didn't speak.

In the end, the ball was passed to Nance Jr., who was slowed down by relying on Ilyasova, and jumped directly to hit a 2-pointer!
In the last few games, the 76ers have not been idle.

The team is basically fighting against the opponent, and this game does not seem to be easy to play.

The head coach of the Cavaliers, Lu, wants to see how well their lineup can play this season, so the game is still very tense.

In the last game, Brown also found that Robert and Booker had a lot of opinions on Li Feng.

But Simmons' attitude towards Li Feng improved, and Holmes cooperated well with Li Feng in the game.

So let them play against Li Feng today.

Simmons got the basketball and was finally intercepted by the opponent in the matchup with Calderon!

Smith got the basketball in the frontcourt and immediately relied on his own speed to distance himself from Li Feng.

Then hit a three-pointer!The Cavaliers got off to a good start.

Li Feng held the ball this time, facing the double-teaming of Calderon and Smith, and finally hit a three-pointer!
Li Feng this season is no longer a rookie in the league.

His ability and salary are already very different from the previous few years!
Coach Lu directly asked for a timeout at this time, and then asked Clarkson to replace Smith on the field!
The fans at the scene all concentrated on watching at this time!
The two are no longer teammates this season, and Clarkson is known as the future successor of the Lakers.

But neither is now with the Lakers.

The Los Angeles side mainly let James lead the team.

5:3!The speed of the Cavaliers is very fast, and the players of the 76ers immediately return to defense after seeing it!

Calderon passed the ball to Clarkson, and the latter faced Li Feng directly after receiving the basketball!

When playing one-on-one with Li Feng, Clarkson clearly felt the opponent's defensive ability!
If Li Feng is willing, he may not be able to pass his level at all!
Not long after receiving a pass from Clarkson, Love turned around and scored a dunk!

Holmes dribbled the ball across the half and was stopped by Hood!Li Feng got his pass, and Simmons quickly rushed to the frontcourt and got up and hit a three-pointer!

Coach Brown's eyes lit up immediately, and he cheered for Simmons!
After fighting side by side with Li Feng, Simmons' personal data has been rising.

This time Clarkson intends to keep a distance from Li Feng, he is going to start a personal attack!

I saw that Clarkson suddenly started to speed up, but when Li Feng was about to come over, he immediately changed to rely on his teammates to pass Li Feng, and then made an emergency stop and hit a three-pointer!

Unlike the previous life, until James left here, Cleveland had not won a championship trophy.

Maybe the team has changed players, and they can achieve unexpected results this season if they don't keep up?

In short, the regular season has not yet started, and everyone's guesses are varied.

Clarkson: "Your team has a lot of talent now, let's play a good game tonight! Let's see who can win in the end."

Li Feng: "That's it!"

Both returned to their respective teams after high fives on the field.

Clarkson has long wanted to play a match with Li Feng as an opponent.

The current Li Feng has nothing to rely on in his new team.He is the boss of the team!

Then it's time to test Li Feng's true strength!
After receiving a pass from Simmons, Li Feng directly passed Clarkson and let Calderon receive a foul to score 3+1!

Love: "Clarkson!"

Clarkson: "Huh?"

Love: "Pay attention to the cooperation with teammates!"

When Clarkson was with the Lakers, their team had the team's worst record for two consecutive seasons!
Clarkson at the time was still quite alone.

Often do not pass the ball to teammates after getting the ball.

Clarkson: "I see"

The Cavaliers are no better than Los Angeles. Players who want to become famous in the Los Angeles Lakers will feel a little lonely after being traded away by the Lakers.

Clarkson is no exception, this time he became extra patient on the court.

Cavaliers LeBron left, the team has to elect a new team leader.

For him, the pressure is really not small.

Because there are many players competing with him here!

In the next season, maybe there will be rookies to compete with him!
Hood received the basketball this time, and the gap between him and Kuzma is still not small.

So until now, the 76ers' offense is still not smooth!
Because Li Feng is not too concerned about winning the game now, it is a preseason game after all.

So he will still take more care of his teammates during the game.

He will feed them more balls, and he will also take care of Simmons more.

Because Simmons is no longer fighting against himself, the personal ability of this player is still worth looking forward to!
After all, Simmons in his previous life also played his own personal style this season!
He is indeed a powerful champion!

As long as Li Feng pays more attention to him and improves Simmons' combat power, then their 76ers will be more competitive in the later stage!

This time the Cavaliers didn't score, and Simmons immediately got the rebound and ran wildly.

Li Feng received his pass in the front court, and before the Cavaliers could react, Li Feng directly hit a three-pointer to overtake the score!

Coach Lu: "What are you doing?! Why didn't you give the ball to James?!"

Cavaliers players present: "???"

Coach Lu: "Ah, let's continue the game. Let me make a joke to brighten up the atmosphere."

Cavaliers players present: "."

Coach Lu watched the game with some anxiety at this time. The team did not have James, which made him feel anxious from time to time.

Then James is the pinnacle of the team.

With him in the game, it is basically stable!

But in the current Cavaliers, there is no player who makes him feel this way.

In his opinion, Clarkson is just a good blue-collar guard.

He is not at the same level as Li Feng, the current superstar of the 76ers.

Love directly received a pass from his teammate, and immediately ran a few steps and missed a three-pointer.

After Hood got the ball at the basket, his jumper was blocked by Embiid!
The basketball is set directly on the backboard! !

The Cavaliers fans at the scene suddenly became much quieter.The block made by Embiid just now is LeBron's signature defense in Cleveland!

After Li Feng got the pass from his teammate, halfway through, he saw Calderon pretending to attack from the corner of his eye.

Not far away, Ilyasova made a direct three-pointer after receiving a pass from Li Feng!
16:10!That's how it distanced itself from the Cavaliers.

The camera was all on their coach, and Coach Lu was watching the game blankly.

His mind was also blank.

Because the tactic he wants to say most is to give the ball to James.
His palms were sweating now, and Coach Lu found that the big screen was facing him.

So I turned around and went back to the bench and sat down and continued to watch the game without any intention of pausing.

Calderon was a little anxious at this time, he ignored Clarkson's request for the ball.

After passing Holmes and Simmons with the ball, he scored 2 points in the jump shot!
At this time, the formation of the Cavaliers is already a bit chaotic.

Simmons used his own speed to make the opponent more confused. Li Feng took advantage of this to get the ball and then lobbed the ball to Ilyasova.

This time, Ilyasova didn't take a shot and passed the ball to Embiid.

The latter missed Love in the post-up singles, but Olajuwon II, who immediately got the rebound, passed the ball to Holmes.

Get up directly, and hit the net with a three-pointer!
Coach Lu: "Defend! Why are you standing there watching?!"

The Cavaliers coach felt a little flustered at this moment.

Is this still the Cleveland Cavaliers who were invincible in the Eastern Conference last season?

The players have changed from a decent defensive state last season to defending with their eyes just now.
Love tried his best to defend at the basket, but the effect was not good.

The 76ers also have a super center!

Clarkson quietly dribbled the ball to the front court. When the opponent thought he was going to pass the ball, Clarkson came and scored a three-pointer himself!
Tonight he was pretty accurate on his shots.

As long as the efficiency is still relatively high, he can strive for more points in the regular season.

Simmons dribbled the ball to the frontcourt at this time. At this time, he thought in his heart that he didn't know when his data would be able to be played in Philadelphia.

After looking up and seeing Li Feng, his confidence improved a bit.

Li Feng is not the kind of player who doesn't pass the ball when he gets it.And in terms of personality, although he speaks a bit strangely during training.

But these days, I feel that Li Feng is not the kind of player that people hate.
