Chapter 589: Opportunity for a Counterattack
By the six minutes of the first quarter, the Cavaliers were already six points behind, which was not a small gap. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
And Xiao Ran hasn't used the prop card today, so it can be seen that the Cavaliers' state today is really poor.
Tyronn Lue already wants to curse, he just led the Cavaliers to win the championship last season, and this year he reached the Eastern Conference Finals for the most time, but after three games, the Cavaliers have not broken out, but they have not been able to get a victory.
Tyronn Lue says he's uncomfortable!
The Cavaliers are very respectable, facing the Nets, to be honest, in this game, the Cavaliers can vaguely build out that there are not many bullets left in the gun, except for Kevin Love, who is in a better state, and the other players are in worse condition than the other.
The Nets are the toughest bone to gnaw across the league, especially after the playoffs, when the whole team suddenly sublimates and catches opponents off guard.
Xiao Ran frequently impacts the interior of the Cavaliers, and the defensive end can be defended by name, a small forward with strong body, fast speed, and high shooting rate, has a real deterrent to the Cavaliers.
Xiao Ran scored two points, and all the players of the Nets gave him running, covering, blocking, and super high shooting percentage, and the Cavaliers had no way to compete.
Kyrie Irving's defense of Dinwiddie abandoning the mid-range defense keeps the initiative on the Nets' side most of the time, and the players are in good shape and morale, so it is only natural that the Cavaliers have this kind of performance.
Xiao Ran, who has no prop card, will ask his teammates to help every time he breaks through, and his physical state cannot be crushed, and Xiao Ran does not dare to be too alone, so he can only rely on the assistance of his teammates.
Truth be told, compared to the first two games, this game is like a regular, professional NBA basketball game, reflecting the cooperation between the five players of the team, rather than one person being strong enough to be fearless.
Although the crushing is good-looking, compared with the current ones, the intensity of the game is far inferior.
This season, the salary of the Cavaliers is 130 million meters, if they reach the finals and win the championship, then everything is worth it, but now, if they fail to reach the finals, the Cavaliers owner can say that they have lost all their money, and almost all the players of the Cavaliers will leave the team!
After all, the $54 million luxury tax is not a minority.
In the regular season, Kevin Love's performance was not satisfactory, Neuroknife Smith was left with only nerves, and Tristan Thompson was even more disappointing, and it was completely unclear that he was a player with an 80 million contract.
This year, if the Cavaliers are swept, the team will definitely become confused, and there is a good chance that James will leave the Cavaliers!
The Cavaliers don't have James, and Kyrie Irving might not either.
Not to mention Tristan Thompson, who has been performing badly and has a bad relationship with James.
Smith, Kevin Love, Frye, and Shambaugh are all dispensable, not to mention that Delon, Korver, and Jefferson will definitely have to follow James' veterans.
In other words, if the Cavaliers are really swept by the Nets, this super luxury team that dominated last season, won the championship, and had a total salary of 130 million meters will face disintegration!
Of course, this is only possible, after all, how James actually does it is not certain.
This time the Cavaliers counterattacked, after Kyrie Irving came to the three-point line, he found that the Dinwiddie defense in front of him was a little negligent, and immediately seized this opportunity, stopped and jumped, and shot three points.
"Bang!"
Basketball played out of the board, in all fairness, in this year's game, Kyrie Irving's state fluctuated, and it can be as high as more than 50% when it is punctual, and if it is not accurate, it is not even 35 percent, it can be said that as one of the main forces, Kyrie Irving's shooting is really bad!
Today in particular, Kyrie Irving made four shots, all of them were faulty, and he didn't score a single goal.
The Cavaliers also won against the Nets, and the Cavaliers were not like this at all in that game, when they were attacking one by one, hitting amazingly accurately, successfully ending the Nets' winning streak and completing revenge.
But since then, the Cavaliers haven't won against the Nets.
If Kyrie Irving can still turn on the hurricane mode in this game, maybe he can really turn defeat into victory and give the team a glimmer of hope to win.
But now, let alone hope, every time he makes a move, Kyrie Irving sleeps in deep despair.
Are you still the player who hits so high that he can bring victory to the team?
Why is it that when facing Xiao Ran and the Nets, he is in a very poor state every time?
If he could have given James, Kevin Love, and even Tristan Thompson more help in the previous games, maybe their Cavaliers would not have no hope of winning.
After a few games, Kyrie Irving struggled quite a bit, Dinwiddie's defense, Xiao Ran's containment, made him isolated, even if he could break through, the Nets could always have someone to complete the defense, making every shot he made very difficult.
But looking at the Nets again, not to mention the struggle, it's just smooth sailing, if he didn't know that this is the scene of the Eastern Conference Finals, he would even have to suspect that this is a game between an NBA team and a college basketball team.
Tyronn Lue, who was on the sidelines, also saw this situation, and took this opportunity to immediately ask for a timeout and began to announce the tactics that followed.
First of all, for James, Tyronn Lue has no tactics to arrange, the opponent is Xiao Ran, and no tactics will work.
But if he knew that James could really compete with Xiao Ran today, he would probably be able to spurt out a mouthful of old blood.
During the break, Tyronn Lue said to Kyrie Irving: "Irving, in the next offense, you have to run without the ball as much as possible, rush into the bottom line, run back, or assist the inside, even if it is just to put Dinwiddie tired down, it is acceptable, don't forget that our bench is stronger than the Nets, as long as the main force of the Nets is off the court, in the face of a Xiao Ran, we are almost three against one, or even four four, we will definitely not be able to let the score difference continue to expand!"
Kyrie Owen took a sip of water, nodded, and didn't speak.
At this time, he was already thinking about how to carry out Tyronn Lue's tactical arrangement!
With his speed, running into the bottom line, as long as someone is stuck in the position, he will be very sleepy to defend, maybe he can really open a breakthrough from the inside!
After all, Dinwiddie is still immature, both skills and physical needs to be improved, and it is difficult to put more pressure on Kyrie Irving, so the opportunity for the Cavaliers to counterattack really appears!
