Chapter 723 The correct way to play - Kecheng counterattack
In the second game in the first round, the Cavaliers were trapped by old problems, but they were better than the previous one.
There is improvement over the first game.
After the first game, the third quarter could be declared a failure, but the rules were forced to compete in the fourth quarter.
Iverson played better than Wade in the first game.
Iverson is successful, and Iverson is defeated. In order to protect Iverson's condition, he did not change defense when encountering pick-and-roll, and resolutely let the Pacers rush in and challenge the inside.
Generally speaking, Pacers are not so persistent in attacking the opponent's penalty area. In order to attack Iverson, Pacers' offense is more directed at him personally. The Cavaliers implement the strategy of not changing defenses, so they will hit their penalty area to death.
The situation encountered by the Knights reminds people of their greatest weakness.
The defender was short and had no depth in the inside. They lost here in the second game. Because the defender was short, he was chased and had no depth in the inside, so after being beaten at the beginning of the fourth quarter, there was no suspense in the game.
The substitute inside who was temporarily on the court could not withstand the pressure of the Pacers, and the situation was turbulent, and they lost hope of winning.
"As a competitor, you can't be depressed, in that case, the only thing you need to do is find a way out, and that's what we do," Iverson said after the game.
"I will find a way to win!" Wade, the person who failed to win a game at home, failed to win at the Pacers.
He was like the Iverson who was angry and said dozens of "training" in front of the reporter, saying scattered that they would find a solution, and no one knew what the specific solution was.
The Cavaliers lost two consecutive games, and this result was basically no surprises from the outside world.
The two most unexpected defeats happened in the second game of the first round between the Celtics and the Bobcats.
The Bobcats are known as the Heavenly Selection Army, and they eliminated the Knicks in the regular season, advanced to the playoffs, and everyone said they would be swept 4-0, but they were slapped in the face in the second game.
101 to 99
Aldridge defeated the Celtics.
Fans began to discuss whether the Celtics would be defeated by the chosen team like the Knicks not long ago.
"Will they be so shady?"
The script ended the Knicks' playoff hopes at Madison Garden and then Black Eighth as the eighth in the Eastern Conference? This script is crazy.
The Bobcats' performance inspired many people, including Wade.
"We are in a consistent situation with Charlotte. We have more people available than them. I want to say that we have the ability to do what they do. Let's see!" Wade put aside this harsh words and moved the battlefield to Cleveland.
When they came to the away game, the fans actively set obstacles for them along the way.
"It's a bit like we went to Detroit in the winter of 2004." Xie Hou joked.
Artest asked nervously: "Are you saying we will fight with them?"
"Do you think you are stupid?" Xie Hou asked.
When faced with this kind of problem, will anyone nod?
Artest nodded: "A little..."
omg! Xie Hou sighed inwardly, "Even if you are stupid, we can't make this fight start. I mean, their behavior is very similar to the Detroit people at the time, but there is less murderous aura."
At the bus driving point, I saw the Clevelanders around me pulling Xie Hou’s poster, not making any graffiti on it, but just rudely typing an x on it.
Less murderous intent? Papalucas feels that there is something wrong with Xie Hou's words.
It's obviously too gentle, okay?
Compared with Detroits, Clevelanders can be regarded as simple and simple in the folk customs.
"Yes, the people here are so kind-hearted." Xie Hou disagreed with Kirilenko's words.
There is a kind of good people who do something bad will be criticized by thousands of people, while bad people do something good will be touching.
Can you calculate this? The nature of swearing with posters is still bad. What made Xie Hou dissatisfied was that he had so many handsome posters, why did they take this poster from the rookie season? At that time, he was a little childish, wearing the ugly yellow away dark jersey in history, and his mood was not right when taking pictures, so his condition was obviously not online.
"This year's fans' ability to select posters is too poor." Xie Hou sighed.
They soon stopped joking. The Cavaliers' two games in Indiana were better than the other. They worked alone, but they didn't play any results. Thinking about it, we should know which link was wrong.
The Pacers were nervously preparing for the battle. That night, the atmosphere in the Quick Loan Center Arena was tense and suffocating.
The biggest change in the Knights is that their tactical center of gravity begins to change from the outside to the combination of the inside and outside.
Boozer has restored his offensive core positioning, Wade and Iverson's shooting proportion continues to decrease, restarting the pick-and-roll tactics, and even Iverson has participated.
In the past, Wade was the only one who played the pick-and-roll tactic, but now Iverson can also play.
In order to prove that he is not selfish, he deliberately passed the ball to Boozer.
Boozer finally waited until today, and his attacks were not vague when he received the ball several times, making the Pacers lose both inside and outside.
For the first time since the start of the first round, the Cavaliers led the Pacers by 7 points in halftime.
In the second half, Xie Hou increased the proportion of independent attacks and was preparing to break the deadlock. Barnes and Ariza prepared for him came in handy.
Two defenders who are skilled in defense do not seek defense. As long as they can provide certain restrictions and interference, or even disgust him, it will not be in vain.
Xie Hou maintained a 55% shooting percentage against the defense of those two people, and scored 10 points in a row in the fourth quarter.
The score is tied.
Mike Brown called the timeout in horror, but Boozer said: "Give me the ball, there are major loopholes in their inside!"
At this time, they saw the Pacers replace Kirilenko and O'Neal Jr.
Tim Thomas missed the accuracy of the outside, allowing these two people to sit in the penalty area and consolidate the defense is considered a normal arrangement and arrangement.
The Pacers didn't expect that the Cavaliers, who have always focused on the outside, would focus on the inside, and they didn't expect that Boozer would cause them such a big trouble.
Kirilenko's defense is no better than back then. His ability to defend the inside alone was not top-notch. After returning from injury, his explosive power declined severely. Faced with Boozer's technical flow, the problem of being easily exposed to swaying is continuously exposed.
After Boozer beat three in a row, the Pacers realized.
They asked O'Neal Jr. to defend alone, and Kirirenko assisted in defense.
As a result, O's single defense was also a problem. He could not limit Boozer's offense. His beautiful footsteps turned one after another, and he turned the defense and scored again.
Boozer scored 8 consecutive points, which surprised everyone.
"If anyone is confused about Carlos' offensive performance, I highly recommend that they look at the Cavaliers' previous games."
"I always think that Carlos is the Cavaliers' most comprehensive inside line in the history of the offense."
The decision was made by the veteran commentator of the Knights Ander Dorset.
The Cavaliers have been in the past for nearly 40 years. Although they have no experience in winning the championship, they have left traces in every era.
Only when Boozer is called the Cavaliers' most comprehensive offensive lineman in history by Dorset, can it be seen.
The Pacers are not helpless, but there are people in the Knights who need to be focused on the inside and outside. If they set too much on Boozer, they will easily lose sight of one thing.
This is a simple multiple-choice question.
Would you like to let Boozer explode, or Wade or Iverson explode?
Anyone who does this multiple-choice question will not choose the wrong choice.
Just let Boozer beat him, and at worst he will be beaten to death.
As a result, the Pacer was really beaten to death.
No matter how much Xie Hou's output was 19 points in the last quarter, Boozer's contribution of 11 points was offset by most of the time, and the others made efforts.
Although the Pacers scored more than the Cavaliers in the fourth quarter, they had accumulated too many advantages before, and in the moment of life and death, they won by relying on the advantages they had saved up before.
104 to 99
With a 5-point gap, the Cavaliers made the teams waiting to see their jokes put away their smiles.
"We are alert and are awake at all times, understanding who the players are on the match, who are the players who are hot, and who are the players who don't want him to get the ball. We are communicating these throughout the match." Wade "scored" only 19 points, but also sent 4 blocks, with the most in the game.
As a defender, he gave the most blocks in the game. He is worthy of being the best defender player after Jordan, and he is also the best blocker with a bitter taste of less than 2 meters.
"It feels really good to see us finally play the right way," Dorset said happily.
What is the right way? There may be a hundred correct way to compete in one hundred people's minds.
O'Neal will tell you to give the ball when he wants to;
Kobe will take over the attack at the critical moment;
Bird will end you while squirting trash;
Everyone's so-called correct game style is different. The Cavaliers' correctness tonight is that they abandoned their previous play style.
Iverson and Wade, two defenders with averaging 30 points per game, gathered together, with far more offense than organization and support, and someone needed to sacrifice.
Mike Brown only knows how to play stars and does not know how to make long-term arrangements. Therefore, the Cavaliers' approach is to let the stars play one and give up the past game style.
Indiana lost two battles and woke them up.
Boozer was reused again, Wade and Iverson both played, the inside was still open, and the inside was blossoming, and the Pacers were not easy to defend anywhere. In the fourth quarter, the offensive firepower could not suppress the Cavaliers.
"There is no such thing as pressure. I want to play my own game well, that's me. I won't retreat in the spotlight, I just will continue to play my own game." Boozer said after the game.
Boozer has been playing in booing for years.
The management suspected him, the fans did not like him, only Wade and a few teammates were willing to support him.
Tonight, he became the one who saved the team for the first time, turning the booing into cheers.
Chapter completed!
