In this game, LeBron James cut down 21 points, 6 rebounds and 9 assists, and the data looks very gorgeous.

Qiao Hai also said in an interview after the game: "There is no doubt that LeBron James's individual ability is very good, and in this game, he made our defense suffer. ”

And when the reporter asked why LeBron James's personal ability was so good, the Cavaliers still lost, and Qiao Hai also expressed his opinion: "I think that the Cavaliers have not found the instruction manual of LeBron James, and LeBron's strength has not been maximized by them." ”

Qiao Hai's words were a bit demeaning to Paul Silas.

But on the Cavaliers' side, the fiasco Paul Silas could only reply sourly: "We lost, and the loser has no right to speak, so he can say whatever he likes, and in the next game, we will definitely get the lost game back." ”

……

A day later, the Bobcats played the Cavaliers again, but this time they played away from home.

In terms of tactics, Qiao Hai has not changed, continuing the style of play in the previous game.

In the opening game, the Bobcats continued to exert their power on the offensive end, and the defensive end also adhered to the defensive strategy of the previous game, limiting LeBron James by putting a step to defense.

The other players of the Cavaliers were completely unconcerned, and the Bobcats did a good job of limiting the Cavaliers' overall offense through such defense.

Then in the end, the Bobcats won 104-90, one more game.

In this game, LeBron James scored 25 points, 8 rebounds and 2 assists on 11-of-20 shooting, and his teammates scored 14 points from Jeff McGinnis, 13 points from Drew Gooden, and 12 points from the Big Z.

On the Bobcats side, Michael Reed had 28 points, 5 rebounds, 4 assists and 1 steal, and his personal performance overwhelmed James.

Gerard Wallace had 15 points, 7 rebounds, 2 assists, 1 steal and 1 block, Anfernee Hardaway had 13 points, 2 rebounds and 2 assists, Josh Smith had 13 points, 10 rebounds, 3 steals and 1 block, Andre Iguodala had 12 points, 5 rebounds and 2 assists, Steve Blake had 8 points and 8 assists, and Tang Zhendong had 7 points, 12 rebounds and 2 blocks.

The Bobcats won two straight games against the Cavaliers, and the post-game news coverage fell into two categories.

One type revolves around the Bobcats, and after these two victories, the Bobcats got through the storm.

ESPN's report was a 180° reversal compared to the previous days, and they said in their front page report: "Two wins in a row, these two games, the Bobcats won by a total of 32 points, two games, the Bobcats didn't give the Cavaliers any chance, both games were suppressed from start to finish." ”

"Joe has once again proved his coaching ability, Tony Kukoc's hand adjustment is very beautiful, the Bobcats' offense has been reactivated, and the dark horse is about to start again."

“……”

Henry Abbott, who previously believed that the Bobcats were about to usher in a wave of falls, also re-posted on his Facebook page: "Qiao Hai's adjustment ability is too strong, and Tony Kukochi has been promoted to a high position, and with only this adjustment, the Bobcats have come back to life, and now, after two consecutive wins, they have become a dark horse again." ”

……

One type of coverage frantically touted the bobcat, while the other type of coverage revolved around the knights.

ESPN's coverage is a standard for this type of coverage, with the headline on their homepage read: "Cavaliers Lose Two Tough Sets, LeBron James Gets 25 Points, Eight Rebounds Powered to Recover!" ”

After LeBron James entered the league, the famous James reporter Brian Windhorst issued a classic quote on his personal homepage: "The Cavaliers lost, but LeBron James didn't lose, and in these two games, James has done his best." ”

"If the Cavaliers want to be a contender for the O'Brien Trophy and help LeBron James achieve something, they have to strengthen their roster......"

……

With two consecutive wins against the Cavaliers, the Bobcats' record has become 5-3 and continues to be stuck in the bottom eight of the East, and they have similar records to the Celtics, Pacers and Nets, and for the time being, there is not much difference between these teams.

After playing the Cavaliers, the Bobcats ran into a two-game game in a row against the Pistons. The first game was on Nov. 21, when the Bobcats played the Pistons away.

In this game, the Bobcats played very well on the offensive end, and the Pistons also limited the Bobcats' passing and cutting cooperation, but through Tony Kukoc's high position and the hot hand of several three-point shooters on the outside, the Bobcats and Pistons played to the end of the game.

Rasheed Wallace caught a three-pointer in the final two seconds to finally kill the Bobcats.

116:117, Bobcats lose by 1 point.

Michael Reed had 34 points, 4 rebounds and 4 assists, Andre Iguodala had 25 points, 6 rebounds, 2 assists, 2 steals and 1 block, Anfernee Hardaway had 22 points, 4 rebounds and 6 assists, Josh Smith had 15 points, 10 rebounds, 1 steal and 4 blocks, and Steve Blake had 5 points and 15 assists.

Despite the loss, the Bobcats earned a round of applause as they played their offense against one of the league's most famous defensive powerhouses, scoring 116 points in the game.

On November 23, the Bobcats returned to their home court to fight the Pistons again, and in this game, the Pistons' defensive intensity was raised to a new level, and the defense was crazy to expand outward, which was to prevent the Bobcats' outside shooting.

Qiao Hai also made a decisive change, after Tang Zhendong sat on the inside line at the beginning and scored consecutive points, Qiao Hai changed their established tactics and turned to Datang as the core.

Then, the two teams also played a full half of the defensive battle, and the score of the half game was 40:35, and the Bobcats also led by five points.

In the second half, Qiao Hai put out a small lineup desperately and began to attack the Pistons' positional defensive formation, which quickly achieved results.

In the second half, as soon as the game opened, the Bobcats played a wave of 13:3 offensive waves, stretching the difference to 15 points in one fell swoop.

In the next game, although the Pistons continued to improve their defensive intensity, the Bobcats' outside shooting was on, but the firepower on the offensive end did not decrease at all.

In the end, the Bobcats defeated the Pistons 101-89!

Michael Reed had 28 points, 7 rebounds, 2 assists and 1 steal, Tang Zhendong had 22 points, 11 rebounds and 2 blocks, Gerald Wallace had 17 points, 8 rebounds and 2 steals, Josh Smith had 12 points and 7 rebounds, Steve Blake had 7 points, 3 rebounds and 11 assists, and Anfernee Hardaway had 6 points, 3 rebounds and 8 assists.

The Bobcats' victory caused a shock in North America, and the Pistons have been very strong in recent seasons, especially last season, except for one Nets, the Pistons were a crushing force for other Eastern teams.

Especially the defense, the Pistons' defense is too strong, and even the Rockets during last year's Finals sometimes have to be deflated against the Pistons' really high-intensity defense.

But in two games in a row, the Bobcats played their offense, and lost by just one point in the first game and 12 points in the second.

With such a performance, many people's evaluation of the lynx has improved again.

Adrian Wonarowski was the first to do so, writing directly on his Facebook account, which has more than one million followers: "After another win over the Pistons, the Bobcats, who have a 6-4 record, should have no problem entering the Eastern Conference playoffs." ”
