Chapter 474: The Strongest King Bomb
Zhang Xiaotian played more fiercely in the last quarter, and after James returned to the court, the efficiency was no longer as good as at the beginning.
This is where Zhang Xiaotian is really terrifying, other players are often affected by the consumption of strength in the last quarter, but he has improved his strength, so who can get it.
James couldn't get it, he still felt stronger when he won the Eastern Conference championship than when he was younger, and now he suddenly feels old again.
Tyronn Lue saw James' condition and could only let Irving lead the offense again.
No matter how Owen played before, he is also a very strong player, and there is nothing wrong with being ordered in a critical situation.
And the Spurs' defense at the No. 1 position is also relatively weak...... Uh, already had Danny Green switch the guard.
Irving can't be stopped when he is fierce, but he is the type of shooting and bursting, and his body is not particularly strong, and it is really difficult to be as horizontal as Curry when he encounters the Spurs' defense.
Owen can't go crazy either, and Tyronn Lue already knows it in his heart.
Seeing that the score was about to stretch to the point of despair, Irving finally scored 5 points in a row.
But hope was only saved for just over a minute, and when the Spurs pulled the score away again, the Cavaliers finally had no heart.
It was the main force that was replaced in advance, and Zhang Xiaotian felt that the knights not only did not fully play their tactics, but also had some problems with their mental energy.
In fact, the main force in the two games is not to the point of complete despair.
If there is no need to fight in the regular season, and the playoffs are like this, even if the health and physical strength of the players are preserved, their blood will be lost.
In the case of a first-class strong team, blood is sometimes very important, especially the strength of the knights is slightly worse, and the decline in morale may be fatal.
With 41 points, 13 rebounds, 8 assists, 3 steals and 2 blocks, Zhang Xiaotian's answer sheet was extraordinarily gorgeous.
James had a triple-double, but another big defeat made his stats a little redundant.
James, who was in a bad mood after the game, did not appear at the press conference, and faced with reporters who came to the locker room, James said; "I don't know, I don't want to talk about 'how do we improve' right now, because today is the end of the game, I don't want to talk about it now. We played aggressively today but we still haven't won the game and we need to improve. ”
Cavaliers big man Tristan Thompson was a little distressed, "We couldn't play back-to-back defense, you know, in the second quarter, LeBron did a good job with the pitchers, we played against the Spurs, they moved a lot, and we had to be ready for that." ”
** Vicky praised James after the game, in keeping with his habit of winning games, "We don't know how to defend him, he's one of the greatest players of all time, we all know that he's playing better than before, you have to do everything you can to limit him. There's really not much you can do when he's doing so well. ”
The reporter also asked Zhang Xiaotian and James about the alignment, and Zhang Xiaotian was still very face-saving for his former teammates.
"I would say that every round you have a chance to influence the game and it doesn't matter who the defender is in front of you. Basketball is five people, and you can't keep thinking about one-on-one with each other, especially on the stage of the finals. Because then you're going to get distracted and not be able to play the right way. Obviously, he's very good defensively, so when you get the chance, you know you need to do something special to score. ”
"The series isn't over yet."
The Spurs players have two days of rest before heading to the road.
Although they have taken a 2-0 lead, they have not slackened in the slightest, the away and home are different, especially the first away, the Cavaliers will definitely show a different mental outlook.
The third game is important for both sides, the Cavaliers must win the first home court if they want to fight back, the Spurs can't give the other side this opportunity, the series gets longer, there are more variables, they have to win the finals neatly.
How to deal with James, the Spurs' experience is already very mature, and the rest is a matter of ability.
The instability of the game is because, in fact, it is still Irving, and the key is that the defense of the Spurs' No. 1 position is relatively weak.
The coaching staff watched the video of the game repeatedly, and still did a lot of work on the defensive details, such as how to help defend and interfere to be the most efficient.
Team defense is a matter of detail, and the Spurs do it better than many teams.
Defensively, Zhang Xiaotian and Leonard's defensive ability should also be fully utilized.
On the offensive side, Zhang Xiaotian's absolute tactical core has now been clarified.
Of course, Leonard's tactical status is not low, and this guy is now convinced, Zhang Xiaotian's performance in key games at critical moments really can't be better.
"The first championship of the team's new era, are you ready?" During training, Zhang Xiaotian whispered to Leonard.
"No problem, I like the feeling of winning." Leonard's response.
The relationship between the two is not necessarily stronger than that of the rookie, but in other aspects, the two are more closely connected.
A few days ago, the media came out to rank, saying that the two of them may be the strongest kings in the league today.
In fact, it is the ranking of the duo, the two of them beat Curry and Durant to add a lot of points, and now they are likely to take out the combination of James and Irving.
In the past, everyone may have thought that Curry and Durant, James and Irving, a combination of different positions are more suitable, but now they have changed their views.
Zhang Xiaotian and Leonard are both types that can attack and defend, can play several positions, and with their tactics and personnel matching, it can be much easier, ** Vicky is really the envy of other coaches.
On June 7th, the third battle between the Spurs and the Cavaliers.
Back at home, listening to the shouts of the fans, the Cavaliers players were in a new spirit.
Zhang Xiaotian enjoyed the welcome of boos, the original hero is now an enemy, and he doesn't mind.
At the beginning, James opened directly again, even if he knew that the Spurs would consume him, James had no other choice, and if he didn't go all out as a weak party, he wouldn't have a chance.
James' ability is unquestionable, especially now that his outside shooting is not so consistent.
As a player at this level, you can't stop him from scoring.
Just like the previous game, the first quarter was a scoring battle between the two sides.
Originally, James had a chance to take advantage of the Cavaliers, but this time Mills also performed well on the outside, Zhang Xiaotian scored with assists, and the Spurs always clung to the score.
Soon it was rotation time, and in order to solve the problem of substitute players, the Cavaliers made a big move, which was to reduce the rotation.
