Chapter 273: Refuse to lose in a row

The Cavaliers are no longer a team accustomed to losing, and by the second quarter, the players were united.

On the offensive end, you may not be able to play smooth team basketball in an instant, but on defense, if you add a little force, you can still limit the Nets.

The Nets also don't have a special presence on the offensive end, and restricting them doesn't require a high level of defense.

The Nets took the lead and morale was high, with Joe Johnson defending James and coming out; Twelve percent of the power.

With a young and energetic interior defense, James did suffer from some constraints.

The main defenders withstood and the interior assisted defense followed, which is the most successful tactic against James right now.

Most of the Nets' defensive energy was focused on other people, and Zhang Xiaotian made a move early.

His ability is not weak, as long as he does not encounter a well-defended opponent, he can also strengthen the offense in the first three quarters, but in general, he is not too aggressive for the sake of efficiency.

If he doesn't increase his offense when he's not so sure, it will affect the team's offensive fluidity, as Vitesse did.

But when the team needs someone to step up, it's a different story.

Karashev is good in height and speed, but his strength is a little worse.

Zhang Xiaotian continued to strengthen Karashev in a situation that no one else expected, and also broke through to cause Garnett's foul.

With his little effort, the Nets immediately had a hole on the defensive end.

The Cavaliers took the opportunity to play a couple of very beautiful attacks, and they overtook the score gorgeously.

By the end of the first half, the Cavaliers had a five-point lead.

What's more, the young interior player Plumlee, who spoiled the interior line, has already committed three fouls.

Plumlee defends hard enough and has some strength, but experience is a problem that the Cavaliers can take advantage of.

The Nets are using a new lineup, but the Cavaliers are also showing new killer moves.

At halftime, Nets coach Lionel Hollins sighed a little, the tactics formulated before the game were still not comprehensive enough, why couldn't the people who could score in the final quarter not score in front.

He prefers to believe that the Cavaliers sacrificed some players' stats for the distribution of the ball, and if Vitesse is a negative example, Zhang Xiaotian is a positive example of how well he combines with the team.

Although this person thinks a lot, the situation is real.

At the beginning of the second half, the Nets worked harder on the defensive end, they increased the rotation of players, played the idea of wheel warfare, tried to defend desperately on the court, and replaced people when there were more fouls or physical exertion.

This move still has a certain effect on the defensive end, desperate is one thing, more is that the defensive rhythm has changed, and it will take time for the Cavaliers to adapt.

However, their frequent substitutions have also led to problems in their own attack.

The Cavaliers took the opposite strategy with the Nets, keeping four core players on the court and not starting the rotation until the situation stabilized.

It's hard to say who is better and who is inferior in the two teams, but the score is deadlocked, and the Cavaliers keep the lead.

Facing the Nets with an incomplete lineup, although it is a bit unreasonable for the Cavaliers to not get a complete advantage, it is also a good choice to win the opponent in a down-to-earth manner.

Winning is confidence, and the Cavaliers want to give confidence to everyone.

At the end of the quarter, Zhang Xiaotian and Joe Johnson put on a stand.

But such a scene lasted only two minutes before Joe Johnson was suppressed.

There was a missed shot and a turnover, Joe Johnson didn't rest in the second half, he had been defending James before, and now the sequelae are coming.

He's still the same singles Joe, but he's also showing his old age, and Joe Johnson is tired.

Seeing that the situation was not right, the Nets rushed to let Joe Johnson go off the court to rest.

The Cavaliers replaced James on their side, and the situation changed dramatically.

James and Zhang Xiaotian teamed up to create an 11-2 mini-climax, which helped the team lead to double digits in less than three minutes.

The Nets replaced Joe Johnson again, and a relieved single Joe hit a three-pointer, but it was too late by this time, and the margin wasn't close because of his one-pointer.

At 2 minutes and 42 seconds, Zhang Xiaotian broke through into the inside line to send Plumlee six fouls.

Then Love blocked the opponent's layup and sent Irving to score on a fast break, and the outcome was decided, and the Cavaliers refused to lose in a row.

Freely chosen sales have now entered a plateau.

On the other side of the ocean, image stores established in several big cities have begun to open one after another.

Yang Feiyu is also busy during this time, but as long as she stabilizes, her life will be very good.

The next busy time is probably the coming year, the company has poached a few good managers, and she will soon have no need to do everything herself.

On the American side, they didn't care much.

There are too many competitors and too many marketing costs, so it is appropriate for them to maintain their current scale.

On December 21, the Cavaliers' home court can be regarded as a ruthless role in the West.

The Grizzlies have had a fantastic start to the season, although the Warriors have now fallen behind and the Rockets have caught up, but they are about the same as the Cavaliers.

The Grizzlies didn't actually make any big moves in the summer, just signing veteran Carter as a supplement.

However, their combination of black and white bears and Mike Conley is quite good, especially with Gasol Jr. still improving, not to mention their strong interior and exterior defense that can make every opponent peel.

The Cavaliers don't care about bumping into them, and there are only a few times in the regular season against strong teams in the Upper West, which is actually a good test for a team like them that needs to run in.

Unfortunately, the Grizzlies are now starting to run into injury problems, with Randolph and Tony Allen both unavailable.

Jon Loyle, who started in place of Randolph, has a basket, but the defensive end may be a hole.

However, the Grizzlies were still very good defensively in the first quarter, and Marc Gasol was indeed stronger than last season, threatening on both ends of the floor.

In the face of a No. 5 position like Gasol Jr., whether it is Love or Tristan Thompson, they are a little unbearable.

However, the Cavaliers had another surprise, and Vitesse played well.

Although there are still too many singles, if the basket is accurate, it is a killer weapon during the rotation period.

In fact, singles are not a big problem in the NBA, the key is not to conflict with the team, there are a number of ruthless singles characters in the league, and Vitesse's biggest trouble is that he can't take it.

If he can follow the team's rhythm, the Cavaliers will love him.

Even if he can't beat the rhythm, if he doesn't strike so much, he won't be abandoned repeatedly.

On the Grizzlies' side, Carter also contributed during the rotation, but on the main player's side, except for Gasol Jr., there was no advantage in other points.

So if the Cavaliers bench players also play their strength, it will be difficult for the Grizzlies to play.
