Chapter 722: The System Collapses

In the first game of the playoffs, the Cavaliers were defeated.

"Their performance meets the expectations of the outside world, and no one believed in how far they could go. The Cavaliers just personally proved that the outside world's underestimation is not false." McGuinness said harshly, "Their strength is indeed not enough."

Bobby Leonard doesn't think it's a good decision to laugh after a fight.

He pulled McGuinness's remarks back a little: "The Cavaliers still have strength, but they don't know how to exert all their strength. They just maintain their current performance. They are not opponents of the Pacers."

After the game, Mike Brown, who claimed to bring war, was embarrassed to be interviewed by the on-site reporters.

"When the opponent scored 15 more three-pointers than us, it was difficult to win." Brown said bluntly.

Moreover, he affirmed Xie Hou's performance: "He really supported a team. The Pacers had many problems like us, but Arthur got it done."

Praise Xiehou is to praise Wade more rationally and scientifically.

He praised Xie Hou as a flower and then said: "We are in a regular season situation similar to the Pacers. Many people suspect that we cannot enter the playoffs. Dwyne responded strongly with his performance. Now, no one doubts us anymore. We have infinite confidence, and this is just the beginning."

Xie Hou was not so polite to attend the press conference.

He said plainly: "This is our strength and what we want to prove."

Both sides did not express much about the first game, after all, it would take four games to decide who would stand out.

The results for other series are almost the same.

Both front-ranking teams are abused and killed after-ranking teams, and there are differences in the degree of cruelty.

For example, the Suns, this group of people acted like a butcher, defeating their opponents by 41 points, completing things that the Pacers wanted to complete on the Knights but failed.

The Suns, with six players in the double-digit Suns, once again proved their strength.

They let everyone know that in this season of war, they can win 70 wins with strong enemies because they are obviously stronger than other teams.

The Houston Red Team, which Xie Hou is more concerned about, also defeated its opponent in the first game.

After Yao Yun chose to gain weight, his offensive ability was even higher than before. His offense of 10 of 11 in the first game broke the opponent's penalty area, and the Red Team easily won the first victory.

Xie Hou congratulated Yao Guan through text messages, and he asked Yao Guan to take care of himself in the text message. His weight was no longer as good as before, but his playing time increased instead of reducing.

He really wanted to borrow Wade's sentence.

Yao Gui already possesses all the characteristics of vitreous physique.

Tall, overloaded weight and unhealthy gameplay and playing time.

A 220 cm giant only has two ways, either becoming a soft egg or hitting its own limits, and in return it is an unhealthy body.

Yao Yun is not a softie, but he didn't gain weight before, so he made his playing style more reliable. He chose to avoid playing on offense and was keen on jumping like his teacher Patrick Ewing.

To the professionals, this is soft.

Now he has gained weight and has become the most unsolvable low-post killer after the Shark. One-on-one single defense is equal to giving points. He must work hard on receiving the ball when defending. Once he gets the ball, double-teaming should be fast.

There are thousands of defenses, remember the first one, that is, you can't fight him one-on-one.

The Rockets now have a lot of tactics to start fighting around Yao Guo, and his one-on-one ability may be considered as one of the top two players in all the inside players.

1 Considering that Dirk is also at the peak at this time, it is difficult to be ranked first, but others, including Duncan Garnett, think that the Ming King is better in terms of single-handed fighting ability.

After all the first rounds, the team with stronger record won.

Xie Hou squirted trash talk with his opponent on the field and had a confrontation. When he got home, he became a kind father and held his daughter for a long time.

Xuewei finally coaxed the child to bed. When he played, the child's crying made the whole living room uneasy.

"In five minutes, please coax Qiya to bed, or you will sleep on the sofa tonight!" Xuewei ordered.

Xie Hou asked: "Are you sleeping on the sofa with Qiya?"

If so, what fear is he?

Unfortunately, Xuewei saw his thoughts. She really didn't expect that one day she would also be jealous of her daughter, "No, if you sleep alone on the sofa, at most let Deroni sleep with you!"

"Meow!" The damn cat actually responded at the right time.

Xie Hou shouted unfairly, but he did not dare to resist. When he recalled his mother coaxed her brother and sister to sleep when she was a child, he gently hugged his daughter in his arms and slowly shook her sings without any tune.

"Two tigers..."

I don’t know if Xie Hou shook too hard or his singing was too bad, but the child suddenly vomited, which scared him very much. Xuewei came over and found that nothing was wrong, but this guy with thick hands and feet was too careless.

After Qiya vomited, she was exhausted both physically and mentally, and fell asleep in a daze. Xie Hou completed her achievements - she coaxed the crying child to sleep within 5 minutes.

"I've completed my mission now?" Xie Hou asked.

"Forget it." Xuewei looked at Qiya for a long time. She just vomited some breast milk. Nothing else. Once again, Xie Hou must have shaken too hard. "You really should have a good baby care class."

Xie Hou thought he had a strong affinity and was born to play with his children, so he didn't need to take any classes. His advice to Xue Wei was to use one ear to enter and one ear to go out, and he refused to attend classes.

Such days have lasted for several days, and Xie Hou's enthusiasm for his children has only increased and not decreased. He is not only keen on playing with children, but also likes to observe their children's habits. He is even interested in eating, drinking, defecating and urinating...

It is such a father who is not good at business but is enthusiastic and competent enough, but has an alternative face on the court.

Two days later, in the same venue, the second game of the series, the Cavaliers' problem seems to have no signs of being resolved.

In the last game, Wade made efforts and failed to save the Cavaliers. Iverson made efforts tonight.

Charging into the front line, the Pacers' inside line was overturned in the first half, and at least one foul per person was on his back.

He is more radical than Wade in the first game, dares to sacrifice himself, and feels better on the outside.

Wade added mid- and long-distance shooting and defensive roaming. After Iverson entered the state, his offense was invincible, but his defense would also be chased and beaten.

Xie Hou played pick-and-roll many times and wanted to replace Iverson's assisted defense, but the Cavaliers were not fooled.

If they look for Iverson, they would not change their defenses. They would rather let Xie Houru enter the realm of no one than sacrifice Iverson.

This determination led to the collapse of the inside line.

The Cavaliers have two major weaknesses: the back line is short and the starter is strong in the interior, but the depth is weak.

Another point is that Big Z and Boozer are both inside lines that are stronger than defense. Especially Big Z, Yao's altitude and limited control area, which is definitely not the big devil who protects the basket in the fans' impression. He does have the height and strength to protect the basket, but that was also the early days, and now it is his 11th year in the league.

Big Z is not a soft boy, and she is not a tough guy. She attended all her rookie season and exposed the hidden dangers of glass in the next three years. She injured Ting for three consecutive years. She was about to become a player who "what would happen if he was not injured?" and suddenly became healthy.

After that, he maintained basic health for six consecutive seasons, and was selected as the Eastern Conference All-Star twice. Wade's only certified big brother, the symbol of the Cavaliers, Mr. Cleveland, completely forgot that he was a stupid big man from Lithuania.

But his defense is still not good.

Although it is enough for the Knight, it cannot withstand Xie Hou's repeated attacks.

Xie Hou aimed at the Clevelanders' penalty area. After several fierce attacks, Big Z got his third foul.

The Knight is equipped with steel on his head and will never replace him if he dies.

Iverson was protected like this, and he was under great pressure. He dared to take action and did not enter. The efficiency of ironwork was soaring. Wade and the wing groups blocked the counterattack several times, but they could not withstand the number of ironworks.

Even if his athletic ability is as strong as the Dream Team, he will be counterattacked from time to time, not to mention that the advantage of the Cavaliers in athletic ability is not as outstanding as the Dream Team.

Big Z made too many fouls, and even Boozer began to feel a sense of responsibility to protect the penalty area. Those who are familiar with him will definitely be surprised by this matter.

Is Boozer or Boozer willing to defend?

He is the most injured player after Iverson joined the Cavaliers.

Originally, the Cavaliers had a team with a tactical level. Wade and Boozer's pick-and-roll are one of the most unsolvable offensive starting moves nowadays.

Once Iverson came, he swallowed 20 shots per game, Boozer's shots were greatly reduced, and the frequency of pick-and-rolls also decreased.

He had no choice but to shift the focus of the game to defense.

A poor insider, even if he has the willingness to defend hard, will at most contribute an unreproachable attitude and unacceptable result, just like Vujasic and Fisher.

The penalty area protected by Boozer was attacked by Xie Hou, Papalucas and Artest in turn.

At the end of the third quarter, Boozer had four fouls and Big Z had four fouls.

At the beginning of the fourth quarter, Xie Hou scored a five-foul on the big Z. Two minutes later, the Lithuanian graduated gloriously.

In order to protect Iverson, the insiders of the Knights sacrificed themselves.

The penalty area for the star inside is missing, and some scraps that cannot even be played by substitutes are replaced. The Cavaliers' defense begins to collapse, and Wade and the wing group cannot resist the system avalanche from the inside.

From beginning to end, neither Xie Hou nor his teammates showed their personal abilities much.
