Immediately after the big victory, netizens can ridicule it as the law of conservation of character, but the team has to introspect.

The Cavaliers' defensive issue was raised again.

If a guard like Ty Lawson, who hasn't yet reached All-Star level, can turn the Cavaliers' defense into a sieve, the team still wants to compete for a championship.

Irving's defense, Love's defense, and the team's overall defense were all criticized.

James can only criticize the offense, and Zhang Xiaotian can criticize the stealth, because the two of them can defend well.

How to improve the team's defense, the Cavaliers' coaching staff is also a headache.

In fact, it is already good to have two outstanding players in personal defense, Zhang Xiaotian and James, and this is the configuration of ordinary players.

In Lefou's case, there are rebounds and a certain amount of single defense, plus offense you can't ask for more from him.

Irving's talent on the offensive end is even more prominent, and the young man can't pull the seedlings to help him.

Team defense is actually defensive rotation and co-defense, defensive rotation can be practiced, and co-defense may come here to trade faster.

The strongest defense of the Cavaliers is James, even if James is allowed to play inside, it is still not enough, and it is also good to help defend in the Heat Bosh, so for the time being, the team has no way at all.

Tyronn Lue, the assistant coach in charge of defense, can only actively communicate with the players and let the team try to raise the defensive atmosphere as much as possible.

As a former league player, Tyronn Lue is very good at communicating with players.

The next game is to play Spurs at home, and to be honest, the players are more serious.

James is still in the semi-coach mode, and from the perspective of training, the Cavaliers' defense is still on the good side.

It's just that the defense is such a thing, if it collapses a little, it may collapse faster than the offense.

So the defense has to pay more anger, and many teams don't have that patience.

It's not a matter of patience or impatience for the Cavaliers, they have to do it if they're going to compete for a championship.

Spurs are Zhang Xiaotian's old club, and after fighting Spurs, his name was mentioned again.

The main thing is that the first two championships are with the Spurs and beat the Spurs, and it is estimated that as long as he is on the Spurs, he will be taken out and talked about once.

It should be the Spurs who are embarrassed, after all, they didn't keep Zhang Xiaotian.

"I understand the Spurs' selection, they just need a second-team helper, and they probably think I'm a little bit better."

When facing reporters, Zhang Xiaotian joked, "But this was a long time ago, we should talk about some new news." ”

The Spurs haven't changed much this season from last season, they have always not changed much, and have been competitive in the West, although their Dinghai Shenshen needle is another year older.

Because of Split's injury, when he came to Cleveland, the Spurs chose Dior to start.

Dio doesn't need to defend James now, Danny Green has to defend Zhang Xiaotian.

Now the outside world calls the Cavaliers the Big Four, Zhang Xiaotian is actually a little embarrassed, his data still hasn't reached this level, and the giants in the fourth quarter are almost the same.

Zhang Xiaotian has relatively more contact with the Spurs' former teammates, but the Heat, who left not long ago, do not have deep feelings.

The hometown team and the first team are definitely different, and when they meet twice in the regular season every season, it's like a reunion of old friends.

The Cavaliers can actually learn from the Spurs' defense, and the Spurs also have players who are good at individual defense and poor at individual defense, and they are a team in the league that combines individual defense and overall defense better.

However, the old stone Buddha's defense ability is still there, and this knight can't compare.

Like Danny Green, who Zhang Xiaotian is going to play against today, he is also a guy who is good at individual defense and co-defense, and Zhang Xiaotian's defense also has to learn from him, but because of the position, Zhang Xiaotian still has a way to deal with him.

The other one is even more troublesome, and that is Leonard, who is also good at both individual defense and assistance defense.

At the beginning of the game, Duncan actually forced the inside line of the Cavaliers, and it is estimated that he will watch people cook.

When he had the stamina, the knight really couldn't defend himself.

The physical strength has decreased, but the strength has not decreased, it can only be said that it is powerful.

Relatively speaking, it is much more difficult for the Cavaliers to play against a team like the Spurs.

But there is no shame in it, a stalemate with the Spurs is better than a stalemate with a team with a poor record.

When he lost the last game, Vitesse felt good on shooting, but this time against the Spurs, he wilted again.

The knights had high expectations for him, and now it was almost cold.

Fortunately, Ginobili also habitually struck iron, but the two sides were slow to increase their scores, and the fight was fierce.

In the second quarter, Duncan lost the vitality of the front, but it was Irving on the Cavaliers' side who felt it.

The Spurs' record at the beginning is not bad, but it gives people the feeling that Parker is also looking old and can no longer take advantage of the competition with Irving.

Leonard is getting better and better, but his opponent is James, and it's good to be able to resist, but it's a little tender to become a strong point.

The Spurs' usual strong points did not take advantage of anything, but Dior played the weakest link against the Cavaliers here.

"Zhang, do you feel depressed, my defensive skills are already stronger." Danny Green smirked.

"What qualifications does the person who takes the zero egg have to speak, your defensive skills are stronger, then I don't want to take the best defense." Zhang Xiaotian said with disdain.

Danny Green was speechless, he can't say that he has a bad offensive level, although that's true.

Zhang Xiaotian didn't hit a few goals in the first half, but he managed to keep a clean sheet against Danny Green, who wants his teammates to feed the ball, and Zhang Xiaotian is the most experienced in dealing with it.

The Spurs led in the first quarter, and the Cavaliers led by three points in the second quarter.

When it came time for half-time, both teams were thinking about ideas, and it wasn't long before the start of the season that neither team wanted to be polite.

Dio is not a pure interior lineman, and if the Cavaliers want to target the Spurs, it may be better to have one big or four small.

It's a pity that there is still a lack of suitable players in the team's four small schools, Vitesse is cold, and now he is ranked behind Joe Harris, but Joe Harris's ability is not outstanding enough, and I don't know what the effect will be against a strong team like Spurs.

At the beginning of the third quarter, the Cavaliers' strength was still effective.

But Spurs, an old fritter, is not so easy to beat.

And as soon as it was rotation time, the Spurs quickly turned the tide and used outside shots to turn the score around again in a matter of minutes.

The Cavaliers missed a single shot from beyond the three-point line in the third quarter, and not only did head coach David Blatter feel the danger, but the players on the court also played uncomfortably.

We can't go on like this, we must take advantage of the fact that the score gap is not big and turn the form around again.

So at the beginning of the last quarter, Zhang Xiaotian faced Ginobili in front of him and hit him mercilessly.

The aging Spurs, how to defend in the final quarter, is a problem they failed to solve in the finals last season.
