Chapter 225 Healing Point Guard

As for the Grizzlies, the typical outside feel is not good, and many open opportunities have not been made.

How many assists I, Yang, was wasted.

After another 2 minutes of the game on the court, the bishop of the Cavaliers, who was behind, took the lead in calling a timeout to the referee.

They replaced Eric Snow, replaced the second-round pick selected this year by Daniel Gibson, replaced Ilgauskas, and replaced the Brazilian actor Varejao.

At the same time, Nelson also took this opportunity to make lineup adjustments, replacing veteran Posey with Brandon Roy.

After the timeout, although the offensive end has become smoother, the scores in this game are still in a stalemate.

Roy, who just came up to the Grizzlies, managed to score a few by relying on his personal ability. On the other hand, Larry Hughes, who was playing against him, was completely liberated without Posey's defense.

Generally speaking, it is a mutual explosion situation. As for Daniel Gibson, he is just a normal second-round pick.

Although the three-point ability has a shooting percentage of more than 40, this in a certain sense limits Yang Zhan's double-teaming of James without any worries.

But Gibson's defensive ability is really good, he has a very good "healing" function.

For example, Yang Zhan's poor shooting touch before the start of the game has almost healed under his full defense.

As for the other Varejao who just came on the field, he is just like Gooden on the offensive end.

Basically nothing, purely relying on eating cakes.

On the defensive end, Varejao's toughness is not very strong, even in his peak period, he relies more on acting, but he obviously hasn't realized the essence of this aspect in the third grade.

The time on the court passed a little bit, and both teams were scoring in their own ways, in the last 2 minutes of the first quarter.

The Cavaliers head coach replaced Larry Hughes with another pitcher, Pavlovich.

This player's three-pointer is also the most accurate of the opponent's team, but his defense is also very poor, which can basically be described as a colander.

On the other hand, Nelson had a normal rotation, allowing Yang Zhan and Chandler to rest, and replaced Lu Wei and Chakalidis on the bench.

With Roy's fast break layup, the first quarter ended and the Grizzlies led their opponents by 25 points 22 to 3.

Come back from the break, and the second quarter begins.

The Cavaliers lineup is, point guard: Damon Jones, shooting guard: Larry Hughes, small forward: Pavlovich, power forward: Marshall, center: Varejao.

The lineup sent by the Grizzlies is Yang Zhan, Roy, Posey, Swift, and Chandler.

The Cavaliers attacked first, and Larry Hughes directly held the ball across half court, faced Roy's defense and dribbled twice, and after a breakthrough, he passed it to Damon Jones on the outside.

This style of play is similar to James, which is why his personal characteristics can be fully reflected only when the opponent is off the field.

After Damon Jones received the ball, he immediately made a shot from outside the three-point line without the slightest hesitation, boom!Strike the iron, Chandler protected the backboard.

"There are quite a few Cavaliers on the point guard line, but they are either too old or too young, and they are basically useless on the court." Zhang rationally analyzed.

After receiving the ball, Yang Zhan took the ball to the frontcourt and faced Damon Jones, a veteran who was not drafted into the league in 98. After dribbling the ball into the three-point line, he directly pressed his back.

No matter how much experience Jones has behind him, the disadvantage of "hard core" makes him back again and again.

When Yang Zhan saw the right time, he turned around and passed his opponent, and then broke through a gap to make a mid-range shot.

brush!hit.

Conversely, the Cavaliers attacked, and Larry Hughes controlled the ball at the top of the arc, facing Roy's defense and did not immediately break through.

However, after 10 seconds, Larry Hughes still didn't hit the ball. Obviously, their tactic of making three-pointers from the small forward pocket was not successful.

The main reason for this is that although Pavlovich is very accurate, his movement speed is slow, and Posey is a master at defending the outside line, so he doesn't give him a chance at all.

At this time, Hughes, who was at the top of the arc, started to start. After passing Roy quickly, he entered the inside to challenge Chandler under the basket. With his momentum, he finally forced a layup.

The result was naturally to go out of the basket. Otherwise, if Larry Hughes had the ability to play the same way, he wouldn't be suppressed by James so quickly.

Yang Zhan took the ball to the front court, facing Damon Jones this time, he chose to make a frontal breakthrough, and took the initiative to find a physical confrontation when the opponent came over.

At this moment, Jones' defense directly had a flaw, and then Yang Zhan took a big step and accelerated, leading his opponent by half a body in an instant.

Entering the paint area, Marshall wanted to come to the defense, but as a veteran who entered the league in 94, his movement speed was simply too slow. When Yang Zhan reached the basket, the opponent had just arrived.

At this time, Yang Zhan did not choose to force, turned around and passed the ball back to Swift, who was near the free throw line, who was wide open, and the latter caught the ball and made a mid-range shot.

brush!hit.

Just 2 minutes into the game, after Larry Hughes made a breakthrough layup, Swift was fouled by the thug.

The head coach of the Cavaliers replaced the European striker Pavlovich, and then James also went into battle again.

From the enthusiastic cheers from the fans at the scene, we can see how much influence he has in Cleveland.

Seeing this, Nelson also replaced Brandon Roy for a rest and replaced Battier with a stronger defense.

Larry Hughes made two free throws, and the Grizzlies attacked Yang Zhan to the frontcourt with the ball, and then called Swift to pick and roll instead of a single.

After switching defenses, it is easier to break through against Marshall, and a change of direction speeds up and throws off the opponent by half.

No one came to cover on the move, because Swift couldn't do much if he forced the shot, but he was pretty solid if he missed it.

Yang Zhan entered the inside line and faced Varejao at the basket with a false pass. After attracting the opponent's attention, he handed it to Chandler next to him. The latter immediately jumped up after catching the ball and dunked with both hands.

In turn, the Cavaliers attacked. LeBron James, who came to the frontcourt, dribbled the ball twice under the crotch, and directly broke through to face Battier and took the initiative to find a physical confrontation.

After taking the opportunity, James immediately accelerated for the second time and entered the inside to face Swift's supplementary defense.

This time LeBron didn't score the ball, and he played very resolutely. He rushed over and turned around for a layup, causing a foul by the opponent's thug.

Standing on the free throw line, the first shot was made, and the second missed. Chandler stuck in position to protect the backcourt rebound.

After Yang Zhan received the ball, he advanced slowly, because the opponent had Hughes and James around, and this fast break couldn't be played at all.

After coming to the front court, he organized outside tactics. Posey ran without the ball to a 45° angle on the right, and immediately cut inside when he saw that there was no chance to catch the ball.
