Chapter 180 Star Catcher
The Bulls began to organize an offense, and the Cavaliers' home court was full of noise.
After Rose dribbled the basketball across half court, Su Yi pulled out beyond the three-point line to catch the basketball.
James opened his arms to defend Su Yi 1-on-1. This season, the Cavaliers' perimeter defense is a weakness, so James can only defend against it alone.
"Shark" O'Neal firmly stuck in the inside, so the quality of the Cavaliers' inside defense is still very strong.
Because other Bulls players basically have no three-point ability, the Cavaliers' tactical arrangement today is to let James defend Su Yi on the outside alone, and the others take their positions inside.
"Ding!"
"Mission: [Star Catcher] has been triggered!"
Su Yi regained his energy in an instant, if you say this, I won't be sleepy anymore!
Now my jump shooting skills are in the growth stage, and I am lacking the skill points provided by the mission.
Su Yi saw "Full Zhan" who was serious about defending, and amidst the boos of the Cavaliers at home, there was a little madness in his eyes.
He slapped the basketball hard twice, changed direction drastically to make a crossover, and dropped his center of gravity to the inside.
Boom!
The muscles of the two collided violently, and there was a loud noise from inside the arena.
After all, James' physical fitness is relatively strong. He didn't use his arms at all, but purely used his waist and abdomen strength to hold back Su Yi.
The two collided like two trucks, pushing forward in parallel.
Male to male!
No one obeys anyone.
The audience at the scene became interested in an instant, and a burst of pleasant whistles came.
The audience of Dami Lijia likes to watch this kind of direct hand-to-hand basketball game the most.
Under the high-intensity confrontation, Su Yi made a half-turn in the opposite direction, passing a gust of wind.
Just when the audience thought that Su Yi shook the space medicine to make a jump shot, the basketball was suddenly thrown into the air inside.
O'Neal turned around to look at the basketball behind him.
A black phantom had already jumped into the air, before everyone could react.
Rose Rose!
The audience present just saw clearly for a moment.
Boom Sakaraka!
The hoop was pulled and creaked, and the basketball was poured into the hoop.
Kenny Smith knocked on the table happily: "The RS team looks like it's going to be strong again today, man!"
Barkley could only smile helplessly: "It's really unimaginable, this kind of passing and receiving is full of imagination. But seriously, this guy O'Neill is really old. If he was young, this should be a Fierce hotpot."
Su Yi checked the front right of his system screen, and a progress bar appeared, showing the alignment between himself and James.
Because of his outstanding performance just now, his performance evaluation has already overwhelmed James.
Huaguo fans, seeing Su Yi and Ross performing the familiar "alley-oop" at the beginning, felt very happy.
This long-awaited game has attracted the attention of a large number of fans.
The students in the school are naturally looking forward to it and can't wait.
Everyone alternately asked for leave to go to the bathroom, but in fact they went to the small store in the school to watch the game, and then brought back the battle report to everyone.
The commentary seat of the sports channel was also very lively, and the analysis began to focus on the same thing.
Yu Jia: "Director Zhang, today's direct dialogue between Su Yi and James, which side do you prefer?"
Director Zhang: "Hey, of course it's Su Yi. Because of what, we can see that today Su Yi's more tasks are on the defensive end, and the team still has Rose as the core to share the offensive tasks. And James like this The bulldozer's style of play, in fact, we say that Su Yi is not afraid of him."
"And Su Yi's long-range shooting is better than James. If James wants to rush to the Bulls, it will not be so easy for him, because the Bulls also have big players inside, and Noah is not afraid of James when he is standing inside."
However, Su Yi still concentrated all his energy to face James who was attacking with the ball, because he remembered that his big brother Yao Ming told him that the impact of James' collision was still very strong.
Now is the Cavaliers 1.0 period. Although there are big sharks in their twilight years, LeBron James is the absolute core of the team, and all tactics are arranged based on King James.
Sure enough, as soon as James got the ball, Ilgauskas' screen arrived.
James had just been deflated in a direct conversation, and now his mood is also very boiling. He took advantage of the little space provided by the cover, crashed in like a crab, and was holding the basketball to prepare for a three-step layup.
Su Yi was already prepared and used his puppy steps to quickly move laterally to grab a position in the penalty area.
Facing Noah who was double-teaming, Su Yi thought that James was going to force the two of them into the air for a layup, but found that he was careless.
James used his smooth N-step layup (N≠3), took another two steps forward, and made a successful layup.
"King! (Emperor!)"
"King! (Emperor!)"
"King! (Emperor!)"
The Cavaliers immediately cheered at home, James hammered his chest twice, then adjusted his hairband, and began to retreat.
The scene of Huaguo Sports Channel was very embarrassing.
Yu Jia devoted all his life's knowledge, but he couldn't figure out how to break down Zhan Huang's footsteps. After all, he was just an ordinary commentator, not a master of rules like Harden.
Still Director Zhang is more experienced, so he quickly smoothed things over: "This is a new NBA rule, the purpose is to ensure the smoothness of the game, so it may take a while for Xiao Su to get used to it."
However, Su Yi quickly calmed down. After all, he had the experience of watching games in his previous life, so he quickly adjusted his defensive strategy.
Amidst the bursts of cheers from the Cavaliers at home, James' momentum was very high, and he went to the outside line alone to strangle Su Yi.
However, Su Yi in the first quarter was obviously not in a hurry to attack, because the main task that De Nagro assigned to himself was to defend James and off the ball.
In this game, Denagro has prepared the main force of dead grass, ready to let Su Yi and James fight for 48 minutes.
So Su Yi needs to focus on the defensive end.
Mo Williams seemed exhausted in the face of Ross.
The Cavaliers piled up all their offensive firepower on the inside today.
Swish!
Swish!
Facing Xiao Mo, who was not tall, Rose stepped on the three-point line with an iron-blooded big jumper, straightened up and made consecutive hits.
While the Cavaliers were attacking, Su Yi was entangled in James' death.
Zhan Huang also felt very speechless. In previous games, even against Anthony and Durant, he had never seen this kid defend so hard. Why did Su Yi not even want to attack today, but insisted on playing by himself.
James originally thought that as a regular season, it would be good for Su Yi to play hard in the fourth quarter at most, but in the first quarter, he put himself on a high-pressure defense, which he did not expect.
And even in the face of a pick-and-roll, Su Yi can easily crack it, coupled with this almost irrational defensive attitude, it will be impossible for Zhan Huang to deal with it directly.
During the opening period, James felt cold and quite uncomfortable.
After losing the bearing of the little emperor, the Cavaliers' offense was misfired, and they could only rely on Varejao's mid-range shot to continue their life.
The Cavaliers are also well prepared for this game.
Because the little emperor James declined Su Yi's invitation to the "slam dunk contest" last time, all the media criticized James and his Cavaliers more or less.
So this time James has to find a place through direct dialogue.
The Cavaliers have a full understanding of the Bulls' lineup, and the absolute core of the Bulls' offense lies in Su Yi and Rose.
Today Su Yi doesn't seem to plan to attack the little emperor with the ball, so Rose is the main offensive initiator of the Bulls.
Therefore, the Cavaliers' guard line also took care of Rose.
Neither Hinrich nor Noah found touch on their 21-foot jumper.
The Cavaliers insider Shaquille O'Neal is old after all. Facing Noah's strong defense, his offensive methods are actually lackluster.
The two sides entered into a period of humiliating blacksmithing frenzy.
Eight minutes into the first quarter, the score was fixed at 8:12, with the Bulls leading.
Su Yi and James each only scored two points.
The defensive intensity of the game can be imagined.
But the roses still bloomed.
A series of fancy dribbles dazzled everyone present.
Faced with Xiao Mo's weak defense, Rose wiped him out with a tearing ankle finisher.
James wanted to come over to switch, but saw the basketball being thrown straight to the backboard.
After the basketball makes contact with the backboard, the refraction bounces back.
Su Yi soared into the air, wrapped the basketball in the air with his big hands, and after sliding into the penalty area, he made a gliding dunk!
So brutal!
So bloody!
O'Neill once again became the background board.
Kenny Smith joins Barkley in the "oh shit" chants.
The RS combination changed its approach. This time, Ross passed the ball and Su Yi dunked into the air.
Familiar formula, familiar taste.
Su Yi, it's still the same Su Yi!
After scoring the goal, Su Yi let out a terrified roar, and collided with Rose in the air.
Finally, one day, people recalled the fear of Chicago, the "city of empty pick-ups".
At the end of the first quarter, the Bulls took the lead 20:16.
During the break, Director Zhang and Yu Jia talked about the game in the first quarter.
Director Zhang smiled: "Today's game was good. This kind of confrontation between top small forwards is the real head-to-head."
Yu Jia also echoed again and again: "Yes, James is the top small forward in the league after all. Xiao Su did a very good job on the defensive end in the first quarter. If Xiao Su can maintain his current defensive strength in this game, it will be great for him. The improvement of technology, as well as the improvement of confidence, are very important."
The intensity of confrontation in the game continued to heat up, and the tension of the audience continued to spread.
The second quarter begins.
Su Yi showed a familiar smile at James. James had black lines on his face. He knew that Su Yi was about to start again.
In the opening stage, because of Su Yi's iron-blooded defense, James had no sense of touch, so he could only rely on forced breakthroughs to cause damage, and the effect was also very bad.
Made 5 of 1 shots and scored only two points.
The Cavaliers opened up the space and created opportunities for James.
James dribbled the basketball beyond the three-point line and glanced at the ground, as if thinking about something.
Su Yi calmly analyzed James' forward swing. This guy was about to make a three-point shot.
This is his classic three-point fake.
The whole world knows that James is going to shoot a three-pointer, but only he doesn't know it at this time.
The audience in front of the TV couldn't help but sweat for Su Yi.
Sure enough, James raised his head, suddenly pulled up a jumper and shot a three-pointer calmly.
Whoosh!
The basketball just flew out.
Snapped!
Su Yi made a prediction, swooped over, and flew the basketball with one palm.
James was stunned on the spot with a bitter expression on his face. I was actually blocked today with such a realistic fake move.
"The famous scene is coming!"
"Su Yi hats James!"
Kenny Smith praised: "Super Su's precise prediction directly caused James a big loss. It is quite irrational to make such an obvious shooting action in front of Su Yi."
Barkley also grinned and said, "Hahahahaha, James made a stupid mistake. He completely underestimated Su Yidi's explosive power."
As the saying goes, when you shoot a man, you shoot the horse first, and when you catch a thief, you catch the king first.
After James was sanctioned, the entire Cavaliers lost their direction.
Rose's easy and freehand jumper opened the situation for the Bulls in the second quarter.
O'Neal forced himself to take a position inside, trying to carry the banner of the Cavaliers' offense.
When the basketball was just passed to him, the shark turned around suddenly, but Noah slammed the bottom of the blow.
The first step has not been erased, and the power of "Shark" O'Neill has been weakened by 80%.
But O'Neal still refused to accept his old age. He vented his anger, spanked Noah away, and got up to dunk.
However, a yellow phantom arrived as expected as usual.
Su Yi is everywhere!
Snapped!
A crisp big hat.
After Su Yi sensed the danger in the penalty area, he quickly defended and rewarded O'Neill with a cap.
The two sides attacked alternately, and Rose played with ease today.
Su Yi also speeded up his running, and after a few waves of offense, the Bulls found their own rhythm.
And the Cavaliers, whose two main players were suppressed one after another, played so uncomfortable.
After switching offense, Su Yi played confidently, and directly pulled out from outside the three-point line without any hesitation.
James flew into the air to limit.
The two struggled for air supremacy in the air. After Su Yi shot with a very high arc, his body fell to the ground.
Then I heard the sound of a clean basketball flipping into the net.
Three points work!
After this goal was scored, the Bulls actually hit a 9:0 spurt in the second quarter.
The score gap between the two sides came to double digits.
Bulls 29:16 Cavaliers.
The much-anticipated focus battle turned out to be one-sided at the beginning of the game.
As of now, James has only scored a heinous two points.
The last time James played so badly, I have to recall the game against the Rockets in the regular season last year.
The defensive players at the time were Artest and Battier's combination of perimeter gates.
These two old brothers not only made Zhan Huang crazy, but also made James hand over an embarrassing record of 0 assists.
Today, James' state has also become the focus of attention of various mainstream media.
James obviously hasn't found his own state at the moment.
Comments on the game were also in full swing on Twitter.
