Chapter 246: World War II Heat
The Cavaliers still maintain the lineup from the previous game, point guard Iverson, scoring guard Huang Xiang, small forward Petrus, power forward Hixon, and center Howard.
The Heat also didn't make any changes, point guard Bibby, scoring Wade, small forward James, big forward Bosh, and center Ilgocas.
If you only look at the strongest lineup, it seems that there is still some gap between the Cavaliers and the Heat, but the Cavaliers have obviously made up for this gap, because the Cavaliers have two super firepower points, one inside and one outside, and the Heat, the two top outside lines will be unevenly divided.
The centers on both sides walked to the midcourt position, the referee tossed the basketball, and Howard slapped the basketball into Hixon's hand, who handed the basketball to Iverson, and the Cavaliers began to attack.
Take the basketball across the court and take a look at Bibby, old guy, I'll let you fail again today.
The body swayed from side to side, handing the basketball from the crotch to the left hand, and the body instantly completed a half-turn, rushing to Bibby's side, although the white devil quickly moved to his side, but still did not stop Iverson's footsteps.
Iverson, who rushed into the interior line, accelerated again, and when his body was in the three-second zone, he successfully attracted the defense of Big Z, who pulled high and tried to block Iverson's footsteps, but Iverson obviously didn't mean this.
As soon as Big Z left the basket, the basketball in Iverson's hand came out of his hand and went straight to Howard.
Keeping in mind the principle of focusing on the interior at the beginning, Iverson still handed over the basketball to Howard, at this time, Iverson has given up the previous main offensive self, it seems that he has really integrated into the system.
After receiving the basketball, Howard stepped back, raised his hand is a hook hand, the basketball fell steadily into the basket, and easily scored two points, Howard's hook at this time was very soft.
Yes, Howard clenched his fist and waved at Iverson happily, this feeling is really cool.
"Beast, it feels good." Huang Xiang slapped Howard's shoulder and said with a smile, naturally very happy about the strength of his teammates.
"That's, didn't look at who I was, haha." Listening to Huang Xiang's words, Howard laughed, no way, this guy is just a happy boy.
Looking at the smiling Huang Xiang and Howard, there was obvious anger in James' eyes, these two guys, too blind, don't they know who is standing in front of them?
It's a good thing Howard didn't hear James's thoughts, otherwise, he would definitely say: Aren't you James?
After half the game, James reached out to ask for the ball, and after the last game, many people questioned James, thinking that he was not so perfect and was defeated by a rookie, and was in an unhappy stage at this time.
So at this point, James needs to prove himself and lead the team to a win, and that's what he needs to do.
Bibby handed the basketball to James, who dribbled quickly past Petrus and looked like he wanted to play alone, but his way was blocked by Hickson.
"Looking for death" James looked at Hixon in front of him and felt very unhappy, and shouted that his body accelerated twice, but he did not choose to hit the basket directly, but jumped high and threw the basketball high to the basket in the air.
After the basketball left James's hand, it slowly flew towards the basket, but a hand that was supposed to appear on the outside suddenly appeared on the way up the basketball and pressed the basketball down.
The audience hissed a cold snort, looking at the figure on the ground, they all roared, Huang Xiang, Huang Xiang just rushed into the inside line and destroyed James's shot, this defense is equivalent to a slap in the face of James.
Looking at the excited compatriot Huang Xiang, he rubbed his nose, waved at everyone, and then quickly ran across the halfcourt, and the basketball had been won by Iverson.
Huang Xiang felt the heat in his back during the run, turned his head and saw James looking at him with red eyes, trembling all over, and then speeding up his pace to rush across the halfcourt.
"Isn't it just a hat for you?" Huang Xiang glanced at James beside him depressedly, this guy is too small-minded.
Iverson handed the basketball to Huang Xiang, who took a few hits and handed the basketball to Petrus on the side.
Seeing Petrus take the basketball, James posted it directly, but Petrus didn't give him a chance, a return pass, and handed the basketball to Huang Xiang again.
After receiving the ball, Huang Xiang stepped forward, got up and threw the basketball out at the moment Wade retreated, and the basketball fell into the basket under the gaze of everyone.
The opening 5:0 was a very good start for the Cavaliers.
"Run, don't throw around." Si Shuai yelled at James on the sidelines, and by feeling, he already knew that James would be angry because of these two goals, and he could only remind this guy.
James glanced at the coach off the court, his brows twisted even more seriously, but then he let go, glanced at Huang Xiang, and slowly ran across the half.
Bibby glanced at James and chose to hand over the basketball to Wade, at this time, he was more suitable to deal with this goal.
"Hey" Wade smiled, then glanced at James, and went straight to Huang Xiang's side.
Huang Xiang followed Wade close at his feet, but he still didn't stop Wade's footsteps, Wade still rushed over, jumped high, and threw the basketball to the basket, the basketball smashed into the basket, and fell into it steadily.
"Nice opponent." Huang Xiang picked up the basketball on the ground and threw it to Hickson on the side, running across the halfcourt.
"Huang Xiang, feed you two balls next?" Iverson looked at Huang Xiang's face full of fighting spirit and said with a smile.
"No, it's better to stick to the coach's arrangement, and focus on the inside line." Huang Xiang looked at Iverson and said solemnly.
nodded, and then handed the basketball to Hickson, who glanced at Bosh behind him, boy, All-Star? Dog eggs.
Raise his left shoulder, resist Bosh, and bounce the basketball to the ground with one arm into his hand, raising it is a blow, but the basketball smashes into the basket.
Big Z grabbed the rebound, handed it to Bibby to take half the court, and then handed it to James on the side, who threw it with a three-point hand, and the basketball smashed into the basket and bounced high, and then fell outside the basket and was grabbed by Hickson.
"Steady, steady." Seeing that neither side scored at this time, Iverson slowed down the rhythm and slowly dribbled the ball through the half, at this time, someone had to stand up and say that the game was under control, and it just so happened that Iverson, who had experience, was the best choice.
"Huang Xiang!" Iverson suddenly shouted and handed the basketball to Huang Xiang, at this time Wade was still two positions away from Huang Xiang, and Iverson passed the basketball without hesitation.
Huang Xiang caught Iverson's basketball, and at this time it was no longer reliable to shoot again, and Wade had already leaned over, so he could only choose to break through.
The body accelerated and shook Wade at Petrus's detachment, rushed into the inside to face Bosh's defense Huang Xiang jumped up fearlessly, boy, do you still want me to detain you?
"Roar" Huang Xiang burst out with a loud roar, and his muscles bulged all over his body, and his taller and taller body made all the fans can't help but get up for this, and they want to buckle violently?
Of course, Bosh who was defending Huang Xiang in front of him was also trembling, he couldn't believe that Huang Xiang in front of him was going to deduct him, but he had to believe it, because looking at his posture, he would undoubtedly deduct him.
"Boom" In the end, as everyone thought, the basketball was slammed into by Huang Xiang, and Bosh once again became the back of Huang Xiang's goal.
That's it, Scott got up and waved his fist at Huang Xiang in the field, boy, you little guy, you are really a rare baby.
After landing, Huang Xiang and Howard bumped their shoulders to celebrate the wonderful goal just now, and the Cavaliers played very well in the early stages.
At 5 minutes and 29 seconds in the first quarter, the Cavaliers made substitutions, Gibson replaced Iverson, Williams and Jones replaced Hickson and Petrus respectively, and the Heat also replaced Big Z for Dampier and Chalmers replaced Bibby.
The game continued, the atmosphere of the scene has soared to the first, in Shanghai, a city yearning for the NBA, to see the wonderful performances of the stars, of course, they are all excited.
Huang Xiang, Howard and the Heat triumvirate are still standing on the court, and the next offense is estimated to still be the stage for these five people.
"Boss, what will you do in a while?" Gibson leaned over to Huang Xiang and said with a smile.
"What the hell, play well." Huang Xiang glanced at Gibson helplessly, since the last game, everyone has raised Huang Xiang to a super high angle, after all, he can still win with the two outside giants, the most important data is more gorgeous, there are really few such people.
"Wait, one will answer on the outside, you and Jones wander around, there are beasts and Williams on the inside, and in one go, the score will be widened." Huang Xiang grabbed Gibson's shoulder and said, about the beast is Howard, this is Huang Xiang gave Howard a nickname, of course, just like the fat man of O'Neill, he also disagreed.
Gibson nodded, then stepped aside to discuss the task assigned by Huang Xiang with Jones.
Looking at the Cavaliers players chattering on the court, all the Heat generals frowned, what are these guys doing, but it must be no good.
Gibson took the basketball over the half court and handed it to Huang Xiang on the side, Huang Xiang quickly rushed into the interior after receiving the ball, attracting a smile on the corner of Huang Xiang's mouth who was defending on the outside, and he wanted this effect.
In the eyes of everyone, Huang Xiang waved his hand and handed the basketball to the outside Gibson, Gibson jumped high, and Chalmers in front of him also jumped, but then Gibson passed the basketball to the side and handed it to Jones.
Jones jumped up and threw the basketball when he caught the ball, and in front of him was James, and he couldn't guarantee that this guy wouldn't give him a block.
"Hmmm" Jones's basketball landed steadily in the basket, and the bench went wild.
An excited Jones raised an eyebrow at James, but James turned around and threw the basketball from outside the three-point line into the basket and hit a three-pointer in response.
"It seems that they really want to win, but, brothers, bomb them." Huang Xiang burst into a shout and led the generals to run quickly across the halfcourt, the basketball in his hand bouncing back and forth, and the Cavaliers launched their crazy offensive footsteps.
(Will this year's championship be the Heat?) )
