Chapter 693: The Last Struggle (2/5)
After two straight wins at home, there is no suspense in this series between the Bobcats and the Cavaliers.
The Cavaliers didn't have a comeback point at all, and the only player who can be called a comeback point - LeBron James, was limited to death by the Bobcats in the last game.
Now, the knight can't see the slightest chance against the Bobcat.
In the first game of the Cavaliers' home court, with the addition of home court advantage, LeBron James turned on the killing mode, but because the Bobcats adhered to the defensive strategy in the last game, James still played very hard.
In the end, LeBron James scored 24 points, 7 rebounds, 7 assists, 2 steals and 1 block, but the Cavaliers lost to the Bobcats 102-111, and the Bobcats got the match point.
Then in the fourth game, the Cavaliers shouted the slogan of refusing to sweep, and they really completed the explosion in this game, in the first quarter, LeBron James's salute team directly scored 7 three-pointers, scoring 49 points in a single quarter, completely breaking the Bobcats' defense.
The Bobcats' Andre Iguodala, Josh Smith and Chris Paul were also in foul trouble and left the game early in the first quarter.
In this case, the Bobcats trailed by as many as 16 points in the first quarter.
The Bobcats also completely collapsed in this game, and Qiao Hai on the bench showed a helpless expression.
Although the Bobcats tried their best to chase the score in the last three quarters, the difference in points was too large, and the main force was trapped in a foul crisis, and the chasing score could not be carried out at all.
At the end of the game, the Bobcats still lost to the Cavaliers 116-137.
LeBron James recorded a triple-double of 31 points, 10 rebounds and 11 assists, successfully leading the team to win and sweeping away the slump in the first two games.
It seems that the Cavaliers not only rejected the sweep, but also seemed to be given more possibilities.
Only Qiao Hai knows that this game is just the last struggle of the Cavaliers and the league.
……
In the fifth game, the game returned to Charlotte.
Being on their home court, with home court advantage, in this game, the Bobcats started their crushing of the Cavaliers again.
In this game, James performed even worse, with 0 points on 0-of-2 shooting, 4 rebounds and 3 assists in the first quarter, completely limited by the Bobcats' targeted defense.
In the second quarter, the Bobcats continued their usual defensive strategy, with James scoring 4 points and 2 rebounds on 2-of-5 shooting, no assists, and only 2 turnovers.
So in the half game, James's personal data was an extremely dismal 2-of-7 shooting, 4 points, 6 rebounds, 3 assists, 2 steals, 1 block and 2 turnovers.
In the second half, James still couldn't get out of this sluggish state, with 4 points, 2 rebounds, 2 assists and 2 steals on 2-of-5 shooting in the third quarter.
By the end of the third quarter, the Bobcats had a 21-point lead.
But if the Cavaliers lose this game, they will be out, so James insisted on not leaving the court and continued to play in the fourth quarter.
The Bobcats were also completely unrelenting and continued to defend James tightly.
So, in the fourth quarter, James continued to go undercover, making another 3-of-1 shot, with 2 points and 4 assists.
At the end of the game, the Bobcats finally defeated the Cavaliers with a score of 99:76, a total score of 4:1, and advanced to the Eastern Conference Finals!
The Time Warner Center was cheering, and in the second year of the Bobcats' formation, they completed another playoff breakthrough, from the second round of the playoffs last year, to this year's Eastern Conference Finals, this is progress!
However, after the game, media reporters, experts, commentators and commentators focused on LeBron James's very poor individual performance and statistics.
"With 10 points, 10 rebounds, 9 assists, 4 steals, 1 block, and 2 turnovers on 5-of-15 shooting, LeBron James' performance was completely out of order!"
A completely deranged LeBron James, who finally gave the Bobcats an extremely easy victory.
And after this victory, the Bobcats advanced to the Eastern Conference Finals.
Their opponent, the winner between the Pistons and the Raptors, is still undecided.
……
The Pistons and Raptors have already played Game 5, and the Pistons are leading 3:2 in the first five games.
The specific process is that the Pistons won two consecutive home games, then the Raptors won two games in a row at home, and then, the Pistons won one more game at home, and the total score was 3:2.
The next game is the home court of the Raptors, and if the Pistons can win on the road, then they can advance directly, but if they lose, they will have to play a tiebreaker.
For the Bobcats, they have to wait for the Pistons-Raptors series to finish before they know who they will face in the next round.
However, before the result is out, it does not prevent them from preparing for the Eastern Finals.
"If it's the Pistons, it's a simple way to play, just like in the regular season, be patient, play with the pass and cut to win the game."
At the coaching staff meeting, Elvin Gentry decided that playing the Pistons would not be a problem.
Qiao Hai waved his hand: "No, Erwin, it's not that simple, it's not the regular season, it's the playoffs." ”
Elvin Gentry looked at Qiao Hai helplessly, in fact, he just wanted to express his opinion, this playoffs, Qiao Hai is like a hanging, in the first two series, the coaches of the coaching staff did not play much, Qiao Hai alone got all the arrangements and targeted adjustments before the game.
Before the East Final, Gentry originally wanted to put forward his own idea to make his head assistant have a sense of existence, but Qiao Hai thought that what he said was wrong......
"The intensity of the playoffs is different, the Pistons will run at the expense of physical strength on the defensive end, constantly rotating defense, supplementing defense and assisting defense, plus the referee will blow the penalty scale, our passing offense is not so easy, if we face the Pistons, if nothing else, the Eastern Conference will be a defensive battle."
Qiao Hai made a prediction like this, and the assistant coaches on the coaching staff were confused.
"So, if we can play against the Raptors, the series will be easier, but if we play against the Pistons, we'll win, but it's going to be a lot tougher."
Qiao Hai didn't say how to play the pistons, the reason is that the strategy of playing the pistons will not change too much, that is, the regular way of playing, of course, compared with the first two rounds, there will still be changes.
For example, the eight-man rotation in the first two rounds will be completely ended in this round, because Qiao Hai will bring Rivra Frenz up to use it to increase rotation and preserve physical fitness.
……
In the Western Conference semifinals, the Rockets and the Spurs finally played Game 6, and they defeated the Spurs with a total score of 4:2 and advanced to the Western Conference Finals.
The series between the Lakers and the Mavericks went on until Game 7, and the Mavericks finally won the tiebreaker, with Dirk Nowitzki leading the team to complete the counterattack all the way.
Finally, the series between the Pistons and the Raptors, in the sixth game, the Raptors used their variant five small at home, played a wave of 12:2 at the critical moment, and finally won the game and successfully dragged the series into a tiebreaker.
But in the tie-break battle, under the defensive intensity of the road, Vince Carter and Anthony were lost, and the Pistons finally won the tie-break and advanced to the Eastern Conference Finals, where they will face the Bobcats.
