Chapter 241: My Team

LeBron. James didn't get much of a break, and he was back on the bench less than five minutes into the third quarter. David. Blatter's expression was gloomy when he replaced James, and his eyes were a little stinging when the score of 65:63 on the scoreboard was seen, and he pursed his mouth and folded his arms in front of his chest.

The Miami Heat actually took the score by two points in five minutes, and what happened on the court made the Cavaliers fans at the Quick Loan Center unbelievable, or even unwilling to believe it! It felt like a terminally ill man who was dying suddenly stood up in good spirits and dealt a hard blow to all who mocked him!

Who would have imagined that with just a rookie and an off-ball attacker, the Heat would be able to relatively suppress the Clevelands on the court, and even let the opponent in the Kyrie. Irving scored just four points in the minutes after his opening score. No more Tristan. Thompson's ability to cope with the switch, the wing has lost LBJ's help defense, and the quality of the Cavaliers' defensive pick-and-roll has dropped to a very weak level.

Although Mozgov has the ability and tonnage to defend the penalty area, Addison and Ruhr have the ability to defend the penalty area. Deng continued to open fire through medium and long distances after covering cooperation, allowing the Russians to lose sight of the other. Both men maintained a good shooting touch in the game, and after two or three attacks, Mozgov in the box had to come up with a paint zone defense. At this time, Ruhr. Deng and James. Ennis's air cut was effective in its lethal power, and no matter how good Mike was. Miller or Sean. Marion, facing opponents who are years younger than them, feel more than enough.

The lack of strength on the bench has seriously affected the Cavaliers' rotation in the playoffs, especially LeBron. James has few suitable benches at this position, resulting in James basically not playing less than 38 minutes in the playoffs. David. Blatter himself is also a coach who is used to using the main force for long periods of time, and the eight-man rotation is his standard rotation style.

"I'm amazed at how high the Heat have been during this time, their offensive efficiency has really dropped, but they've played with more ferocious defensive intensity than before!" Kenny. Smith's face was full of astonishment, "Carey. Irving made 0 of 3 shots in these few minutes except for the opening shot in the third quarter! Look at David. Blatter's expression knew how dissatisfied he was with the play of the leading point guard! ”

Blatter still thinks too much of the Heat, or he thinks of everyone else on the Heat team other than Wade. You must know that in addition to the sharp small-ball tactics shown by the Heat this season, the most obvious thing is their strong resilience. Buck used an almost sarcastic tone to attack the Cavaliers head coach, "Even if you lead by more than 20 points, you can't let up against the Heat." It's not just about missing a Dwyan. Wade is going to lose it, and that resilience has taken root in the team spirit of the Heat, who will do everything they can to pull them down, no matter who the opponent is. ”

"But the Miami people will face a more difficult situation next, and the return of LBJ will directly increase the destructive power of the Cavaliers, which is likely to be the last straw that crushes the Heat." O'Neal said he had a negative opinion on whether the Heat would be able to hold out until the end of the game, "Spoelstra's team is at an absolute disadvantage in terms of staffing, and without Whiteside's deterrent effect in the restricted area, it will be difficult for the Heat's forward line to limit LeBron who wants to rush up. James. ”

Barkley's eyes rolled, and then he smiled and suggested to O'Neill, "Let's make a bet, Shaq?" ”

"Bet on what?" The big shark's expression instantly became vigilant, he didn't want to fall into this trap with a big mouth.

"I agree with you that the Heat probably won't be able to guard against LBJ, but I bet the Cavaliers' guard line won't be able to guard against Addison tonight either." Sir Divine Pig's tone was categorical, as if he had foreseen what would happen next.

O'Neal frowned and glanced inside the stadium, hesitating whether he wanted to make a bet with Barkley. After all, ever since the big mouth lost his first kiss on the ass in the face of a donkey named Kenny, he has become a shrewd example of unprofitable when it comes to betting.

"I suggest you don't get involved in this gamble, Shaq." Kenny. Smith looked at Addison's current scoring stats and said with a smile, "Addison has scored 15 points on 6-of-9 shooting in this game, and with this momentum, he is likely to break his single-game scoring record in the playoffs." ”

On the court, the Cavaliers launched a new round of offense under the organization of James, and LBJ used Mozgov's cover to directly force the Heat restricted area. For a time Ennis, Akinsa and Ruhr. Deng and the three of them surrounded James at the same time, but saw the Cavaliers leader hang high before the encirclement was formed, and hoisted the basketball to Mike, who turned around and cut under the basket. Miller. The veteran took the basketball and skilfully cut the paint for a layup before Kinsa could get back into place.

There is no LeBron. The biggest difference between James' Cavaliers is whether they can play a pass-and-cut game. Irving's role as a scorer is much higher than that of a playmaker, and he can break through the ball to benefit the shooter, but his ability to pass deep balls is too weak. In this Cavaliers team, James is the most important and perhaps the only playmaker...... That's one of the reasons why it's hard for him to get a break for an important game.

"The Cavaliers finally showed me some decent play, rather than a back-to-back singles or breakouts." O'Neal pursed his lips, half earnest, half mocking, "I almost ...... the first few rounds Oh! Miami suddenly launches a fast attack! Almost half of the Cavaliers players on the court didn't react! ”

Addison, who received Ennis's serve, changed his previous way of steadily dribbling the ball through the half court, and after slapping the ball hard, the speed instantly soared, and he skipped the backcourt like an afterimage! The Heat players seemed to have telepathy with each other, and while Addison rushed up, everyone rushed towards the opponent's half as fast as they could!

“Sh*t!!!” Just ran to the halfway line near Carey. Owen cursed unexpectedly, and when he reacted, Addison, who was dribbling and sprinting, was already at the same level as him, and he left the Cavaliers point guard behind him in a flash of light!

Iman. Seeing that the situation was not good, Shambaught quickly came up from the side to stop Addison from the three-point line at the top of the arc. The Chinese point guard pulled the ball lightly with his right hand, and his footsteps paused slightly in front of the three-point line for less than a second. Deng stepped forward in time to steady himself and provide Addison with just the right amount of cover.

"Addison get rid of Shambaugh! Will the Heat be able to seize this fast-break opportunity? ”

LeBron who quickly returned to the defense from the other side. James was the only player on the Cavaliers' front line who kept up with the opponent's fast break, and his strong explosiveness made him rush into the interior from the right side like a full-powered off-road vehicle, wanting to give Addison a powerful chase hot pot!

"Kill him! LeBron, cover him!! ”

"Teach this pesky rabbit a lesson!!"

"Let him understand whose home !! is here"

……

The frenzied shouts of Cleveland supporters in the stadium made James feel his blood run high, as if he had seen the yellow-skinned rookie being nailed to his own big hat. Just as Addison took a step forward before rushing into the three-second zone, LBJ, who didn't think much about it, jumped high and slapped his thick arm like a sharp axe!

But Addison's this is just a fake move, he already knew that James was back in place from the other side, and he was not interested in being another poor background for the other party to chase the hot pot. At the same time as the Chinese point guard's arm retracted, he used the right foot on the outside as the axis, and the whole person turned lightly towards the right side of the three-second zone, just in the direction of the LBJ impact block.

The basketball was handed to the right hand, and after turning around, he lightly picked up the basket with a low hand, and the ball was nimble and made close contact with the basket.

“o! Dazzling turn and lower hand layup! What else can I say about this?! "Kenny. Smith exclaimed, "Experienced as LeBron. James was deceived and became the background of Addison's brilliant layup! I guess the Cleveland people might have one more reason to hate Addison! ”

***

Despite Addison's excellent performance, the remnants of the team were still in a passive situation on the road against the Miami against the Cleveland Cavaliers, who were all in the main team. As O'Neill said before, Ennis and Ruhr. Deng teamed up and failed to effectively restrain LeBron. James's play, on the contrary, caused Kyrie to be displaced by the center of gravity of the defense. Owen gradually regained his grip at this point.

At the start of the fourth quarter, Spoelstra had to let Addison, who had played all of the third quarter, sit on the bench to rest. And the Cavaliers, on the other hand, are in LeBron. Under the leadership of James, the Heat began to launch a more intense offensive against the Heat's bench lineup, and the Heat team at this time was like a flat boat in the furious waves of the sea, and there was a danger of being swept into the waves and crumbling at any time.

Addison simply put the towel on his head, no longer paying attention to the game trend on the court, closing his eyes and calming down to recover his strength as soon as possible. It wasn't until a stern-faced Spoelstra took his towel off that he reopened his eyes.

"The break is over, Eddie, the team needs you to play at your full capacity." The head coach looked the Chinese point guard in the eye and said word by word.

Addison glanced at the scores on the big screen, 82:96, the Heat trailed by 14 points, and there were about 8 minutes left before the end of the game. The situation was somewhat unexpected, his teammates were able to withstand the pressure more than he expected, and Addison had expected the Heat to be blown away by about 20 points during his absence.

The Chinese point guard stood up and took off his long-sleeved jersey, and Spoelstra took the tactics board from the assistant coach: "Tactic No. 1, you know, Eddie." The team needs your organization, but it also needs your individual ability. The Heat are all your team tonight, don't let me down. ”

- Completely my team......

Addison glanced at the manager's calm expression, nodded, and trotted to the technical table, where he sat on the floor and waited for the chance to die. The Quick Loan Center treated the Chinese as if he were an old enemy today, and the rushing boos began to sound as Addison walked to the tech desk.

"Hostility! I saw Cleveland's hostility towards Addison! Inexplicable but ferocious hostility! Barkley exclaimed excitedly, "Truth be told, I've rarely seen anyone so hostile in this city other than that black mamba!" ”

Addison, who was sitting in front of the technical table, looked indifferent and unconcerned, and he was quietly tightening his knee pads.

- Shhhhh......h The Heat tonight are all my team...... If you don't shush a little louder, how can you be worthy of who I am now......
