Chapter 344: Before the All-Stars, Chaos Fights
February, a day destined to be extraordinary in the NBA and the world basketball world, a moment in the NBA that is most anticipated, is moving forward in the slow pace of people, and February 19 is getting closer and closer. (_bubble&)
After the Cavaliers finished their game against the Clippers on the 12th, there were only two games left before the All-Star break, which were the game against the Bobcats on the 15th and the game against the Hawks on the 18th.
"What is this, shit, it's always back-to-back when it's back-to-back, and at this time, it's a three-day game, these league leaders are still stupid when they're full, right?" Looking at the schedule in his hand, Huang Xiang complained to the people around him dissatisfiedly, in the past, there were several back-to-back games, but now, there are only two games in 7 days, this kind of schedule is really too two.
looked at the complaining Huang Xiang O'Neill smiled wryly, this little guy, hehe, usually works hard, but when he doesn't compete, his face is full of unhappiness.
"The next game will definitely be comfortable, after all, the opponent is not strong." Carter flipped through the video disc in his hand, they were called together by the coach at this time to watch the next opponent's game record, no matter who the opponent was, they had to watch their first three battle records, which was the unwritten rule of the Cavaliers.
"Don't underestimate any opponent." Howard leaned back in his chair, and he understood this point very well.
While everyone was talking to each other, Scott also walked into the middle of the court, holding the Bobcats game video in his hand, signaling the crowd to silence, and then began to play the game video.
The Bobcats have achieved good results in the game recently, and with Jordan's reinforcements, the Bobcats at this time are really a little interesting.
But the most important thing is their results in the draft this year, Walker, the guy who fought Huang Xiang several times in the Japanese Invitational Tournament, left a deep impression on Chinese fans.
In the NBA, he also showed himself perfectly, averaging 20.7 points, 3.5 rebounds, 6.7 assists and 0.8 steals per game, making him succumb to the No. 1 outside line except for Huang Xiang and Irving.
At this time, Walker seemed to have become the leader of the Bobcats, and of course he had the most shots in the video of the game.
After watching the video, everyone began to slowly reminisce about their opponents, where they deserve their attention, where they have weaknesses in the last few games, and so on.
Teams other than the Cavaliers have had a lot of battles in recent days, but basically before All-Star Weekend, many teams will let up on their battles, and anyway, the entertainment carnival is about to begin.
On the 15th, the game between the Cavaliers and the Bobcats went on as scheduled, with Huang Xiang and Walker becoming the focus of the court.
At the same time, the big battle between the Celtics and the Heat is also going on today, ESPN and TNT did not broadcast the Cavaliers game today, and of course, China did not put the live broadcast on the Cavaliers today.
The Celtics represented by Yao Ming and the Cavaliers led by Sun Yue and Huang Xiang really don't know which one to support first for fans in China, and in the end, considering the enjoyment of the game, the sports channel still chose the game between the Celtics and the Heat.
However, among the basketball stars who will compete in the world in China, if it is the most fans at this time, it is no longer Yao Ming.
Huang Xiang with his super performance, the achievements in the NBA, plus the number of fans in China O'Neal Iverson and others is very large, so people pay the most attention to Huang Xiang, Huang Xiang has become the favorite fan of Chinese fans.
The game between the Cavaliers and the Bobcats was very intense, Walker and Huang Xiang hit each other at the beginning, and Walker scored 11 points at the end of the first quarter, which shows the courage of this guy.
In the next game, Howard and Garnett began to dominate on the inside, although Walker's performance on the outside was extraordinary, but Huang Xiang still had to contain this guy, so seize this opportunity The Cavaliers' interior line is crazy again, for such a team, what else can you do.
It's just that a team has a good outside line, a super outside line, a super inside partner, such a lineup is really perverted to the extreme.
Until the final lesson of the game, the Bobcats didn't find a good way to limit it, and the Cavaliers' offense made their heads a lot bigger and they couldn't compete with.
In the end, the Cavaliers won the game 98-83 against the Bobcats, and there were no surprises to win the game.
In this game, Walker delivered perfect statistics, 34 points, 7 rebounds and 4 assists, but it did not bring them victory.
On the other hand, in another classic battle, the Celtics and the Heat had just reached the third quarter at this time, and the Celtics 59:61 the Heat.
The two sides can be said to be bitter enemies, last year's Eastern Conference Finals, the Heat slashed the Celtics, and they reached the Finals, but the Cavaliers ran out of luck.
Meeting today, although the Celtics are missing Garnett, their interior line has Yao Ming, and they have a fierce battle with the Heat team that has been integrated for a year.
Pierce, who is in his thirties, broke out of his second spring, hehe, although it is a bit exaggerated to say this, but he did have a decline in statistics recently, but every time he saw James Pierce, he would explode.
The two played in the dark at the No. 3 position, and Wade and Ray Allen were also not idle, and they did not separate the winner until the end of the third quarter.
Rivers glanced at his son sitting behind him, in two years, he should be in the NBA, but I don't know what will happen in the future.
Defensive ...... on the inside Thinking of this, Rivers couldn't help but shake his head, looking at the tactical report that the assistant sent to him just now, the Cavaliers defeated the Bobcats, Garnett...... 21 points, 12 rebounds, 3 blocks, 3 steals, Kevin ...... I really miss it.
Although Yao Ming made the Celtics' interior line rise a little, his body-positioning offense was okay, and at this time, let him compete with other interior lines, let him have a high-intensity interior confrontation defense, and he really didn't have much confidence.
In the final quarter, both the Celtics and the Heat will once again show their killer features, Rondo and Wade first came to a peak collision, Rondo first hit a mid-range shot himself, and then hit a layup.
Wade smiled at Rondo, little one, pretty good. (He is also not big%_%)
Wade took the pass from House and rushed into the interior line to make a heavy dunk, and his domineering movements and super strength reminded many Chinese fans who watched this game of Huang Xiang.
Huang Xiang and Wade's styles are really similar, and those who are familiar with Huang Xiang also know that Huang Xiang has imitated Wade since he was a child, so the two are very similar.
When the game was about to end, Wade and James frequently bombarded the Celtics' interior line, but ......
No matter how good these guys are, the Celtics have a super shooter, Ray Allen hit four three-pointers in the last minute of the game, and 12 points completely knocked the Heat back to its original shape, and in the end, the Celtics defeated the Heat 93-91 with Ray Allen's last power.
Both sides played very devotedly in this game, and neither side wanted to let the opponent press down, so they both invested 100% of their combat effectiveness, but in the end they were won by Celtic, although Celtic had a certain element of luck, but the majority of fans still saw the strength of the two teams, which was comparable.
If both sides want to achieve better results in the playoffs, or be able to suppress their opponents more, in addition to making changes to the lineup, they will either practice new tactics.
On the 18th, the last day before the All-Star break, many people were ready to get up and go to Orlando, but the Cavaliers didn't have that blessing.
Today they will have a fight with the Hawks at their home stadium, but luckily the Eagles and Orlando are not far away, so they also brought a lot of their luggage and belongings and flew straight to Orlando after the game.
The Hawks were taught a good lesson by the Cavaliers in their last game, but recently with the rebound of the Hawks Johnson, their record has also improved a little.
However, not making it to this year's Eastern All-Star made Johnson very unhappy, as a brother of the Hawks and a frequent visitor to the All-Star for many years, he still has a certain amount of resentment.
But this is not the saddest thing, Orlando's All-Star was originally dominated by Howard, who knew that Howard came to the Cavaliers this year, so that no one in Orlando could really make it into the All-Star lineup.
The most promising of them all, I have no intention of being the Great General Arenas, but although the Great General is popular, his competitors are too strong.
First of all, let's not talk about others, Iverson, Rondo, these two guys deserve to be on this final list, both of them have super performances, and the point guard is only two spots, so he is miserable.
The game starts at 8 p.m. sharp, and the Cavaliers are still playing all of them today, but it's just a formality.
The game went on for 3 minutes and 32 seconds, and all of them were down, and at this time, it was the real lineup of this game.
Iverson point guard, Carter at point guard, Petrus at small forward, Williams at power forward, and Hollins at center.
The Cavaliers relied on this lineup to compete with the Hawks, of course, when the score was about to be opened, Huang Xiang and others would still go up to fight the fire.
Tomorrow the Cavaliers will be quite bumper, and the rookie competition will be played by three people, and all three of them will play, but people don't have much thought about the rookie competition now, because Huang Xiang has been positioned as the best rookie of the year by 80% of the people.
And Garnett and the others are going to participate in the star game, so they are also replaced by Scott, and he doesn't want his disciples to be tired.
However, even if the main players were not in the middle of the court all the time, the Cavaliers did not give the Hawks a chance, and the two guys, Williams and Jones, formed a firepower blockade in the third quarter, completely jumping the Hawks' inside and outside lines.
What the? Johnson, you ask? This guy is not much tougher than Gasol.
In the end, the Cavaliers ended all their schedules before the All-Star break, and had a perfect half-year battle.
