Chapter 929
With 1 minute and 43 seconds left in the first quarter, Xie Kai and Paojiao made their debut again.Because the score is leading and the scene is also dominant, the Thunder coach asked them to rest for a while,
At this time, the Thunder's lineup is Xie Kai, Paojiao, Robertson, Grant and Kanter.
The Cavaliers' field lineup is Rose, Wade, Jeff Green, TT and Korver.
The salary of the Cavaliers exploded, so many of the players they signed last summer were paid basic salaries, such as Wade, Rose and Jeff Green, whose salaries are extremely low, and they are no longer at their peak, and it is no longer possible to earn tens of millions of annual salaries Big deal.
Many fans on the Internet like to slander others, saying that James hugged his thighs and so on, and they regard Wade, Rose and others as thighs today, regardless of the age and competitive status of these people, just for the sake of being black.
Xie Kai thought it was funny. If Rose was still the same Rose back then, do you think the Knicks would keep him without a big contract?Will the Bulls trade him?If Wade is still the Flash, will Riley give him a decent pension contract?
At this time, the score on the field was 35:27, and the Thunder led by 8 points.
Xie Kai came over with the dribble, and Wade was defending him.
Wade is 35 years old, he is still a tendon, but injuries and age make his explosive power and speed far from the peak.He can barely be a primary ball-handler for a team, and his ability to disrupt opposing defensive formations has regressed too much.
Wade and James have won championships with the Heat, but objectively speaking, the two are not as suitable as expected.Both of them are ball-handling types, and their off-ball shots are very average. Wade even holds the ball for 3-pointers.In this way, one of them holds the ball, and the threat of the other will be greatly reduced.So back then in the Heat, Spoelstra would consciously tell them to stagger their use in the game, and then match them with shooters.It can be said that the Heat's ability to win the championship relied on the defensive and passing awareness of the two, coupled with Bosh's sacrifice and Wade's hard work off the ball at that time.
If you really want to talk about fit, Curry + James, James + Durant, Wade + Nuo Tianwang are all perfect matches.
Of course, Xie Kai can be a perfect match with any superstar player, because he is top-notch both off the ball and on the ball.
Xie Kai gave the ball to Kanter in the low post.
It is TT who defends Kanter!
TT's height is only 206cm. His frame protection is very average in terms of effect and statistics. His wingspan is not outstanding, and his outstanding performance is actually only offensive rebounds.As for switching defenses against smaller ones, it's actually somewhat exaggerated, and in fact it's not that strong.
As for the Iron Man design that has been boasting before, it also collapsed after getting together with Kohler Kardashian, and the attendance rate in the past two seasons has begun to decline.
Kanter's size is a standard center forward, while TT is a power forward, which is obviously not right.In the penalty area, the gap between the two is clear at a glance.
The Cavaliers did not attack, Kanter used his footsteps and tonnage to block TT and prevent him from jumping, and easily scored 2 points with a clean board!
37:27, the point difference opened to double digits.
Wang Meng sighed: "There is no need to doubt Kanter's singles ability."
Yang Yi said: "Kanter is a center forward, and TT is a center forward with a small lineup at best. There is a difference in size between the two. It is difficult to guard against low positions."
For the Cavaliers, Rose dribbles over.
Rose faced Xie Kai's defense, and TT pick-and-roll.
Xie Kai didn't care about TT at all, went around and gave Rose a 3-point chance.The two have played against each other since the NCAA, and he is too familiar with each other.
Rose broke through and gave Wade.
Wade made a breakthrough again, pointing out Korver from the outside.
Korver shot a 3-point shot-no!
Robertson followed closely, and Korver didn't have any good chances to make a move.
Kanter closed the board and handed it over to Xie Kai to push forward.
Xie Kai came over with a dribble, covered with Grant, and the opponent flanked him. He hit the ball and gave it to Grant who was running down!
Grant directly attacked the frame and made a layup that caused TT's foul!
Grant made two free throws and the Thunder led by 39 points at 27:12!
For the Cavaliers, Wade made a mid-range hit and finally stopped the bleeding!
Xie Kai slowly dribbled over and continued to pick and roll with Grant. The opponent continued to pinch, and he again distributed the ball to Grant who was running down.
Grant made an assault in the middle and split the pickle in the bottom corner!
Pickled Pepper 3-point shot - a steady hit!
At 42:29, the Thunder continued to rain 3 points.
On the last attack, Wade was emptied on the Cavaliers side, hit the iron with 3 points, Kanter closed the board, and the first quarter of the game ended.
Wang Meng said: "Wade and Rose are partnered in the backcourt. Even with Korver, the offensive space seems a bit small."
Yang Yi nodded: "In this era, everyone is piling up shooters. There is no offensive space, and it is difficult for breakthrough players to get good opportunities. Unless there are two Frye inside, the offensive space of the Cavaliers' lineup is still problematic. TT Looks like a team going up the glass, but he's blocking space. He's there, and Kanter can stay comfortably around the rim."
The Thunder scored 42 points in the first quarter, and the gap between last season's champion and runner-up looks bigger than before.The Cavaliers are at a dead end, and Bass is about to go dark in the small ball lineup, and 10 horses can't hold it.
Xie Kai performed happily in the first quarter and easily scored 13 points, 2 rebounds, 3 assists and 1 steal.
At the beginning of the second quarter of the game, James replaced Wade and brought up the second team.
Rose dribbles over and organizes the offense at the top of the key.
James asked for the ball with his left back.
Rose gave the ball to James, and the latter hit pickled peppers with his back. The Thunder just didn't pinch, and let you play one by one.
Pickle is also an All-Defensive Team-level wing, but he still can't stand up to James in the low post.
The Thunder just don't flank, let you fight one by one, and don't let you lead the shooter to hit me.
James squeezed in. TT and Kanter were fighting for positions in the penalty area. It was very crowded inside. He didn't force a shot...
Grant closed the board and handed it over to Xie Kai to push forward.
Xie Kai switched over, faced Rose's defense, made a feint + crossover, passed the opponent directly, entered the penalty area, and made a layup with a low hand!
44:29, the Thunder lead by 15 points!
The Cavaliers attacked here, and James shot a 3-pointer-also!
44:32, the point difference narrowed to 12 points!
The Thunder team attacked here, Xie Kai forced Rose again, turned around and made a jump shot.
46:32, the point difference came to 14 points!
Here James wanted another 3-pointer, but he didn't!
Xie Kai came over after receiving the backcourt rebounds, faced Rose, pulled the ball continuously, turned around and wiped it, and cut to the follow-up Grant!
Grant catches the ball and bombs the basket!
Bang——
At 48:32, the point difference came to the highest 16 points in the game!Cavaliers pause!
The Quicken Loans Arena was a little quiet. It was really unacceptable for the home team to be beaten so fat.Rose is really not good on the defensive end. He can't keep up with speed, lateral movement, confrontation, and awareness. Facing Xie Kai in the same class, his defense is similar to air.
