Chapter 263: First Win of the Season
"In the second half, everyone cheered up, took advantage of the victory, and then rested." Scott left the locker room after speaking, and the Cavaliers will all lean on their chairs, as the home lounge, everyone's chairs can be semi-reclined, so it is very easy to recover their strength.
"Huang Xiang, don't play in the second half." Carter took a bottle of water and filled half a bottle, then threw the technical statistics on Huang Xiang, and then looked at Huang Xiang with a successful look.
Huang Xiang opened the book suspiciously, and after reading it, his eyes looked directly at his column, 24 points, 5 assists, 3 rebounds, 2 steals and 3 blocks? Damn, you're too tough, aren't you?
"Okay, I'll give it to you." Huang Xiang smiled hesitantly, anyway, I promised you that the coach may not agree, I will coax you over first.
Obviously, although Carter is an experienced veteran on the basketball court, he still has a lot less cunning eyes than Huang Xiang.
"Okay, count you as acquaintances." Carter, who looked proud, returned to his position, but he didn't know that he was put in a position by Huang Xiang.
The second half of the game came as scheduled, I don't know if Carter and Scott also discussed it or Scott just thought so, Huang Xiang really didn't return to the court, so Carter secretly had fun for a long time.
Gibson, Carter, Petrus, West, and Howard played, and the corresponding Wizards Wall, Young, Evans, Schringer, and Blecher.
Compared with the Cavaliers' comprehensive pressure in the first half, the Wizards changed the decline in the first half in the second half and began a big counterattack under the leadership of Wall.
At the beginning of the first half, Wall dribbled the ball into the basket, and faced Howard without fear, not to mention, this guy made a pick-up in the air and threw the basketball into the basket steadily.
Huang Xiang twisted his neck, glanced at Wall, and shook his head, he doesn't have to play now, otherwise, it's just you, hehe, see if I don't clean you up.
"Huang Xiang, pay attention to Wall's legs, this guy has a characteristic of breaking through." Seeing Huang Xiang's face full of fighting spirit, Jones immediately said in a low voice, he still knows a lot about Wall, after all, the two were still opponents last year.
"What are the characteristics?" Huang Xiang looked at Jones suspiciously, what kind of thing is this guy selling?
"Understand it yourself." Jones smiled slightly, but he just won't tell you.
Damn, Huang Xiang punched Jones depressedly, and then returned to the field, looked at Wall and took a closer look, what is so powerful about this guy?
As a 10-year champion, this guy is certainly not ordinary, and the first season of this guy is far from Iverson, but compared to other guards, Wall's results are quite good.
However, in Huang Xiang's eyes, this guy is a good point guard at best, and he doesn't look like a leader, where is there anything worth learning from him?
Wall in the court immediately taught Huang Xiang a lesson, relying on his super fast body, instantly rushed past Gibson, shook quickly from side to side, ran into the basket and picked the basketball into the basket.
"Cross-step?" Huang Xiang poked Iverson beside him and asked suspiciously. Didn't this guy use Iverson's stunt back then?
"Yes, so what? He's still a little tender. "Iverson didn't give Wall the slightest face, he just had a little shadow of himself.
Gibson took the basketball across the half court and handed it to Petrus, who scurried forward and handed a backhand to West, who got up and made a mid-range shot, and the basketball hit steadily, the former second brother of the Hornets has now slowly integrated into the Cavaliers' system.
The current Cavaliers are not an exaggeration to say that they are the Big Two, because at this time, it is only Howard and Huang Xiang who are superstars.
It is not an exaggeration to say that the Cavaliers are now the Big Four, plus Iverson and West, the four are all bulls.
If you add Carter and O'Neal, it will be the Big Six, but some things are not counted like this, after all, O'Neal and Carter can no longer break out of their previous strength.
"Here" Howard shouted at Gibson and reached out to take the basketball and hit a layup, not caring about the Bleche monster at all, after all, there are only one or two people who can influence him, and now those one or two are old and injured.
But even so, the Wizards did not let the Cavaliers pull the score away, but slowly pulled the score closer, if it is not an exaggeration to say that they are strong, or luck is on their side, in short, the Wizards made 5 of 6 three-pointers in the first half of the third quarter, which is enough for them to laugh for a while.
At 5 minutes and 29 seconds in the third quarter, Huang Xiang Jones and others walked onto the court, and the Wizards were still all the main forces, and the score at this time, the Cavaliers 66:60 Wizards, only had a 6-point lead.
"Boys, focus on stability for a while, pull the score away for me, run well, and I'll give the basketball to the best guy." Iverson said to Huang Xiang and others before he came on the court, and everyone nodded after listening to Iverson's words, although Howard and Huang Xiang are all high-eyed figures, but they still have to listen to Iverson's words.
The Cavaliers who returned to the court obviously had firepower both inside and outside, Huang Xiang took Iverson's pass and raised his hand to hit a three-meter three-point line beyond the three-point line, and in the cheers of the fans, the basketball hollowed into the net.
"That's it, come on lad." Iverson patted Huang Xiang's ass and said with a smile, the more optimistic he was about this rookie.
"How many won't you come in a while?" Huang Xiang asked rhetorically.
"Forget it, I'd better do my job as a point guard." Of course, Iverson wanted to agree to Huang Xiang's proposal, but ...... It is estimated that Scott will skin himself, and he will finally weaken the score when he comes back from Turkey, and if he finds it, it will be the same as before.
Wall rushed across the half court with the ball and tried to hit the interior again, but he was not in front of Gibson, who had been in the NBA for several seasons, but the former four-time scoring champion Iverson, and Wall's breakthrough was directly destroyed by Iverson.
"Get out of the way for me" Wall snorted, his body accelerated again, and he tried to rush past Iverson, but Iverson still stood in front of Wall at once, and the veteran's experience still prevailed over the newcomer's body.
Wall was surprised and his body accelerated again, this time the continuous change of direction still broke through the aging Iverson, and after the breakthrough, he flashed into the interior and wanted to pick up the basket, he wanted to rewrite the score by himself, but he was not Kobe, and he couldn't be Kobe, and the basketball smashed on the basket.
Howard squeezed away Bleche and put the rebound in his arms, and handed it to the side of the Huang Xiang Cavaliers generals all ran across the halfcourt, Huang Xiang rushed to the free throw line with the ball and continuously changed direction to avoid Lewis's pursuit, just when everyone thought that Huang Xiang was going to end the battle alone this time, Huang Xiang shook his hand and picked the basketball directly to the basket, but everyone could see that the angle of his shot was high.
But will it be that simple?
A roar focused everyone's attention on one person, Jones, only to see Jones rush into the restricted area, leap high and then raise his big hand to press the basketball into the basket.
"Boom" basketball was smashed into it by Jones, who said that this guy is a guy who can only throw three points, it is obvious that under the influence of Carter, Huang Xiang, and Howard, Jones is transforming to dunk.
Huang Xiang smiled and slapped Jones to celebrate their cooperation.
"Boy, have you been peeking at me for dunks lately?" Huang Xiang said with a smile, the strength of this dunk is more violent than himself.
"Fuck off, I'm the dunk king, but I don't like to show off." Jones's cheeks were two feet thicker and said unceremoniously.
"Then you mean I love to show off?" Huang Xiang said suspiciously, but then he understood that this guy was deliberately hurting himself, his eyes widened, and then he glanced at Jones, who had already rushed through the half-court, and chased after him, this guy was too bad.
"Did you ...... just now" Huang Xiang grabbed Jones and wanted to ask, but Lewis had already rushed over with the ball, Huang Xiang immediately let Jones go and faced Lewis, this guy is not an easy master to deal with.
To be honest, Lewis is also a person who has taken a super-large contract, and once helped the Magic team reach the Finals, but last year he was traded to the Wizards by the Magic team because of his lack of work, and his personal results began to slowly decline.
However, this does not mean that Lewis's personal ability is not good, and in the face of this guy, Huang Xiang still can't be careless at all.
"Drink" Lewis rushed past Huang Xiang and went to the basket, but this guy's breakthrough was still much worse than his three points.
The basketball smashed to the basket, was snatched by West, and handed over to Jones to assist Iverson for a layup, and the third quarter slowly came to an end.
At the end of the third quarter, the Cavaliers ended the third quarter with a 10-point lead of 79-69 Wizards.
During the break in the third quarter, the Cavaliers will all recover their physical strength as soon as possible, after all, although the Cavaliers still maintain their lead in the third quarter, but it is also a great price, under the leadership of Wall and Lewis, the Wizards played a beautiful counterattack, although they were still pressed down by the Cavaliers in the end.
In this game, it can be said that Yi Jianlian did not play much at all, although he played in a technical way, but the time of the battle was obviously not as long as Schullinger, and Schlinger did not have much firepower in the face of Williams, who did not have many opportunities to play in the American team.
In the last quarter of the game, O'Neal took Carter and others to the court, and in the face of the Wizards' crazy counterattack, they once again suppressed the offensive fire of the Wizards, until the end, Huang Xiang and others did not return to the court, and the Cavaliers easily won.
(Rest early, good night brothers)
