Chapter 138 The Mystery of LeBron's Exodus
Seven p.m., Staples Center.
Accompanied by the passionate shouts of the announcer, Su Yang was the last one to run out of the player tunnel, his exclusive BGM was played at the same time, his highlights began to be played on the big screen, and the audience began to shout MVP in unison.
He ran into the field, interacted with his teammates before the game one by one, and then came to the sidelines to high-five Obama.
The two exchanged polite greetings, the audience was very excited, and the cheers in the arena went straight to the ceiling.
The pre-match ceremony ended quickly, the lights in the arena were turned on, and the long whistle for the start of the game was played.
Su Yang walked to the Cavaliers bench, bumped shoulders with LeBron, and thanked him again for his encouragement.LeBron said that it should be, and then the two stood on the technical stage, posing with each other's shoulders, and the audience and photographers took wild shots.
After the referee waved their hands, the two walked to the center circle and settled down, almost at the same time putting away their expressions of relaxation, as if they were fully preparing for the upcoming battle. The ESPN live broadcast featured a close-up of their eyes, and the air was full of solemnity.
The other players from the two teams arrived one after another. Su Yang quickly scanned around the Cavaliers side and compared the scout reports for a simple analysis.
The starting point guard, Mo Williams, is nicknamed by Chinese fans. In the past few seasons, the highest assist per game was only 6.1. On the one hand, the overall level of the Bucks is poor, and the conversion efficiency of passing points is low. pass the ball.
Xiao Mo's technical style is biased towards offense, while his defense is limited by his height and weight, and he is generally in the lower position.
The starting shooting guard Anthony Parker, a veteran who entered the NBA in 98, left for other leagues due to injuries and abilities at the beginning of the century, and did not return to the NBA until 06. He is a typical 3D player.
But Parker only looks good in statistics, and the actual defensive effect is quite average, mainly because 34 years old is too old and has suffered serious injuries. When encountering explosive players, it is basically free, that is, he is willing to do dirty work.
Starting power forward JJ Hickson, a sophomore rookie, doesn't matter what he wants, it's purely a position.
The starting center O'Neill has a big name, but he has aged in an all-round way, so there is nothing to fear.
"As far as his lineup is concerned, if I were James, I would choose to leave..."
Su Yang felt in his heart that the Cavaliers' lineup could not match LeBron's personal super strength.
But the Cavaliers' salary space is full, even high enough to pay the luxury tax. The two big centers O'Neal and Big Z occupy 3100 million space, averaging 19 points per game, while LeBron only gets 1500 million US dollars.
As a small city, it is difficult for Cleveland to recruit superstars, but the management headed by general manager Danny Ferry is really brain-dead, plus a wonderful boss Gilbert, it is hard to imagine how LeBron spent seven years.
It's no wonder that Garnett, who has the same experience, told him: Don't let loyalty hurt you...
In fact, the big Z is okay, after all, the players played by themselves are nothing more than a decline in strength.
But it is too stupid to get Ben Wallace and O'Neal through a big deal. From the beginning to the end, it can only show that the Cavaliers don't know how to effectively use LeBron's strength.
"Players should work hard to control their careers. Loyalty is relative. As long as you don't hurt a lot of people when you leave, don't talk too much about your feelings with capitalists, unless it's Cuban."
"If it were me, I would offer to run away after finishing my rookie contract, and I would never condone the idiot management..."
While thinking about it, the referee held the ball to the middle circle, gestured left and right, and gently threw the ball into the air.
The centers of the two teams followed suit, but O'Neal was obviously too lazy to fight for it, it was just his body inertia.
Jordan took the lead to touch the ball and dialed it to the Clippers halfcourt. Davis caught it and moved forward.
The audience cheered and applauded, and the Clippers set up a formation of two from the left and three from the right in the first attack.
Davis took the ball to the top of the arc, raised his hand and threw it to the left wing.
Su Yang catches the ball and rushes forward step by step. With the help of Jordan's cover, he easily gets rid of the interference and strides to the short corner on the left.
At the same time, Davis started to cut inside, used Randolph to cover into the short corner on the right, and then used Gordon's oncoming screen to go straight to the left bottom corner, keeping parallel with Su Yang, ensuring that he could easily pass the ball.
Where O'Neal could keep up, Xiao Mo was delayed and it was difficult to catch up, and the Cavaliers' basket was suddenly unguarded.LeBron saw through the Clippers' tactics and wanted to switch defenses to catch up with Davis, but he couldn't take care of it and chose to shrink to the basket.
Seeing LeBron's movement, Su Yang hit a long pass towards the left corner, and Davis caught the ball and made a three-pointer.
bass!The three-pointer went into the net.
The Clippers' opening tactics pistol + hammer can be considered to give full play to the advantages of the three-guard lineup, and also maximize the use of the shortcomings of the Cavaliers lineup's slow movement. In addition to catching and shooting from the bottom corner, there are also many changes such as directly hitting the basket.
Easy-side Cavaliers attack, Xiao Mo ran the ball across the center line and passed it to LeBron who came out with the help of a screen.
LeBron took the ball and transferred it to the top of the arc, and then divided it up to O'Neal who mentioned his right elbow, and then rushed up.
With such an action, it is clear that he is going to attack the inside line through hand-to-hand cover.
According to the pre-match arrangement, Jordan stepped forward to block the breakthrough route, but LeBron did not stop, but diverted around, and O'Neal raised his hands and prepared to hang the pass. Fortunately, Gordon bypassed the screen and rushed to the basket.
Seeing that there was no way out, LeBron made an emergency stop and ran back, returning to 45 to get the ball again.
At the same time, Parker started running from the left bottom corner, and with the help of Xiao Mo's elbow area, he got rid of Su Yang and rushed to the top of the arc.
LeBron raised his hand to pass the ball, but just as Parker used it, Su Yang stood in front of him.
Parker put on a three-threat move in a decent manner, but his eyes were always on the inside, and with the sound of many sneakers rubbing against the floor from the right, Su Yang guessed that LeBron had used the screen to cut inside and decisively pressed close to delay the pass.
Parker struggled and hesitated, the shot clock flew by, and finally threw the ball to the left wing.
Xiao Mo catches the ball while running, jumps up and leans back, and raises his hand to score two points from a long distance.
when!Basketball hits the basket and hits the iron.
Jordan jumped up and caught the ball in his hands. Davis caught the ball and launched a fast break.
There were cheers in the arena, the Clippers were still standing in a formation of two from the left and three from the right, and Su Yang took the ball from the left wing and rushed.
This time, O'Neill chose to attack early.
Su Yang slowed down to stabilize his figure, tried to pull the ball and turned around to get rid of it, but he didn't think about it but saw O'Neill retreating back, immediately stopped turning, continued to cut inward along the sideline, and took two strides to reach the short corner on the left. Go straight to the basket.
LeBron did not shrink the defense, but JJ Hickson stood at the basket ahead of time and waited.
In an instant, Su Yang passed the ball to Randolph, who was temporarily unguarded, and ran head-on.
Randolph received the ball and held it high to avoid LeBron's interference. Su Yang ran to him and set up a wall to block LeBron's return to defense. Continue to rush toward 45 degrees.
Randolph passed the ball at the same time, O'Neal was too slow to switch defenses, and Gordon caught the ball and scored a three-pointer.
Boom!The basketball hits the hoop and into the net.
JJ Hickson picked up the basketball and retreated out of bounds, Xiao Mo caught the ball and rushed forward, and the Cavaliers launched a fast break.
However, the Clippers team retreated very quickly, and the Cavaliers could only fall to the ground.O'Neal wanted to get the ball from the waist, but was restricted by Jordan's forward block. Xiao Mo waited for a long time and saw that the situation did not improve. He suddenly lowered his shoulders and walked left to the bottom line.
The speed is quite fast, but it is a pity that the confrontation is too far behind Davis, barely rushing to the bottom line, unable to reach the paint area.
LeBron hurried around to the right wing, raised his hands and clapped his hands at the same time to signal a pass, trying to reorganize the offense.
Xiao Mo was in high spirits, maybe he didn't hear it at all, and against the defense, he scored two points with a shot.
when!Basketball hits the basket and hits the iron.
Su Yang ran and jumped to catch it, then turned around and ran forward when he landed, and the Clippers team quickly got off the third line.
The Cavaliers were able to keep up, but O'Neal had to take a few shots slower than Jordan. Su Yang took to the right wing and used Jordan's cover to get rid of Xiao Mo, and then took three steps into the paint area, facing LeBron to intercept, towards the left corner long pass.
The Cavaliers' defensive formation was in a state of chaos. Gordon received the ball and was left unattended, and steadily hit a wide open three-pointer.
The Clippers started with a 9-0 offensive climax, and Mike Brown's smile froze.
