NBA’s aging star system

A three-pointer by Barnes touched the hearts of the coaches on both sides, as well as the players on both sides of the court.

boom--

Swah——

The basketball hit the backboard and bounced into the net!

"Yes!" Cole waved his fist fiercely.

3-3

James frowned when he saw that Barnes could actually make the shot, and Tyronn Lue also looked serious.

Barnes, who made the three-pointer, breathed a sigh of relief and was thankful for the luck of the ball.

The ball was transferred and it was the Cavaliers' turn to attack.

Irving once again came to the frontcourt with the ball, and still gave the ball to James.

James faced Barnes' defense and started a breakthrough directly.

The fierce physical confrontation with Barnes can also affect Barnes' touch from another aspect.

Barnes lost to James in terms of strength and was crushed by James, so Green had to help defend again.

But this time, when James broke through, Su Tian took the initiative to find his teammates for pick-and-roll cooperation, got rid of Clay, and ran into an open space.

James passed the ball to Su Tian who was open in time.

Su Tian took the ball and shot a three-pointer directly.

Swah——

Su Tian hit another three-pointer!

6-3

Su Tian hit consecutive three-pointers at the beginning, attracting the attention of the Warriors.

In the next two rounds, as soon as Su Tian caught the ball, there was someone to cover up or assist in defense. Su Tian did not find a suitable time to take action, but Su Tian found many opportunities to pass the ball.

Two consecutive pass assists directly gave the Cavaliers a 5-point lead. The Warriors did not dare to double-team any more. They only allowed Clay to focus more on defending Su Tian.

Soon, at the end of the first quarter, the score reached 32-29, and the Cavaliers temporarily led by 3 points.

Because Barnes hit a three-pointer at the beginning, James did not dare to let it go at will, so that the Warriors' overall offense in the first quarter was very good.

Except for Clay, everyone basically gave up offense in order to defend Su Tian. He only took two three-pointers and hit one.

Although Barnes did not take another three-pointer in the following period, he hit two mid-range shots, which also caused a lot of trouble for the Cavaliers.

During the break, Su Tian saw Tai Lunlu's visible tangle.

In fact, Tyronn Lue wanted to stick to his defensive strategy, but Tyronn Lue was afraid of failure and was afraid that because of his arrangement, he would end up taking the blame.

At this time, James' emotional intelligence is reflected.

"Coach, plan your tactics, we all believe in you!"

Seeing James speak, Irving followed closely, "Yes, coach, the Warriors are not easy to defeat, and the team needs your help."

Tyronn Lue looked at James and then at Irving.

"Okay, everyone, listen carefully. Our next tactical arrangements are as follows..."

drop--

Soon, the inter-section break ended and the second quarter began.

In the second quarter, the Cavaliers arranged a lineup of Irving, Su Tian, ​​James, Frye, and Thompson.

Just take Love off to rest and let Fry come up for a while.

The Warriors also made regular lineup arrangements, with Livingston and Iguodala playing.

The first possession of the ball was given to the Warriors. Livingston came to the frontcourt with the ball, faced Irving's defense, and passed the ball directly to Iguodala.

Livingston rarely attacks with the ball now, because his body does not allow it.

After Iguodala got the ball, he did not hit James hard. Instead, he called his teammates to pick and roll, and used the pick and roll to start a breakthrough.

Of course, Iguodala's breakthroughs were mainly based on points and assists. Sure enough, after breaking into the inside and attracting help from defense, Iguodala directly passed the ball to Livingston who was making an air cut.

Livingston received the pass and hit the ball directly. Irving followed Livingston, but was out of reach.

32-31

The score is very close, and there is a possibility of being overtaken at any time.

The ball was transferred and it was the Cavaliers' turn to attack.

Irving came to the frontcourt with the ball. Facing Livingston's defense, Irving did not pass the ball. Instead, he directly started singles and used his dribbling rhythm to mobilize Livingston's defensive focus.

After constant cross dribbling, Irving suddenly broke out and rushed inside from the right side.

Livingston quickly turned around to chase, but Irving was already two bodies ahead of Livingston, so Green had to come over to help defend.

Seeing Green assisting in defense, Irving passed the ball directly to Frye who was left open.

Frye caught the ball and shot a three-pointer directly.

boom--

Although Frye has a good chance at this time, his shooting ability is still unable to compare with Love. Basketball is forged.

But fortunately, the rebound was grabbed by Su Tianchong. After getting the rebound, Su Tian shot directly again.

Swah——

Two points scored.

34-31

"Su Tian, ​​he saved the knight again!"

"No, the word rescue is not the right word, it's just a key goal."

"Are you coming up?"

"What, you can't comment without playing?"

Fans have different positions and naturally have all kinds of comments, but at least Su Tian can't hear them on the field.

After Su Tian's hit, James took the initiative to find Su Tian and give him a high-five.

The ball changed again, and Livingston came to the frontcourt again with the ball, this time passing the ball directly to Green.

Green got the ball, stood at the top of the arc, and observed the movements of his teammates, focusing on Clay.

Clay didn't have much offensive performance in the first quarter, so Cole put Clay in the second quarter as the team's first offensive point.

But, unfortunately, it was Su Tian who faced Clay.

Clay's continuous movement did not give any chance. Seeing that the time was about to come, Green took the opportunity and shot a three-pointer.

boom--

Basketball is playing iron, and the rebound is taken away by James. The moment he takes the rebound, James directly initiates a push transition.

At the same time, Irving and Su Tian also started sprinting at the same time, rushing forward with James.

Green was the quickest to react among the Warriors. He caught up with James in time and wanted to block James' impact.

James saw Green coming to stop him, so he quickly shot the ball to Su Tian in the frontcourt.

Su Tian caught the ball and had an unobstructed view of the front. He quickly came to the basket and succeeded in a layup.

36-31

In the next few rounds, the 5-point difference never wavered until halfway through the second quarter, when Tyronn Lue replaced Irving and James in advance and took Love.

Cole saw the Cavaliers' substitution adjustments and knew that the Cavaliers were preparing for the third quarter. He also made some adjustments, bringing on Curry and Klay.

So the Cavaliers' side became dominated by Su Tian and Love, while the Warriors' side was coordinated by Curry and Green.

It is difficult for the Warriors to stop the pick-and-roll duo of Su Tian and Love, and it is difficult for the Cavaliers to completely block Curry's defense.

Soon, at the end of the second quarter, the score reached 60-55, and the Cavaliers only temporarily led by 5 points.

During the halftime break, Tyronn Lue once again adjusted the lineup. This time the adjustment was to compete with the Warriors' five small players.
