Chapter 722

"In today's game, whether it is the Cavaliers or the Pacers, it is actually very simple to defeat the opponent, the Cavaliers want to win, in addition to LeBron's stable play, their two outside lines, Larry Hughes and Alexander Pavlovich, must get rid of the blockade of the Pacers' outside line, provide sufficient fire support for James, and the Pacers are just as simple, that is, completely block the two outside lines of the Cavaliers, so that James falls into a solo battle."

After Jermaine O'Neal and Zajunas Ilgoskas jumped the ball, today's game officially began, and Magic Johnson also began to discuss with Michaels the current situation of the Cavaliers and the Pacers, and the premise of wanting to win, although Magic Johnson is not optimistic about the Cavaliers, but as a commentator, they are still in line with their own professionalism and give advice to the Cavaliers, of course, no matter how much he says, it is actually nonsense, because even if he blows the sky, Cavaliers head coach Mike Brown on the sidelines isn't going to play the Pacers the same way he thinks about it.

"Haha, Erwin, although the Cavaliers have always been dominated by outside offense, and their outside offensive ability is also very strong, but counting on Larry and Alexander to get rid of the blockade of the Pacers, it is better to expect LeBron to score 50 points on Men's head today." For Magic Johnson's conditions for the Cavaliers to win, Michaels obviously doesn't believe that the Cavaliers can do it, Tony Allen and Tyshawn Prince are both top outside defenders, plus Meng Xu and Jermaine O'Neal cover the entire range of help defense below the three-point line, Larry Hughes and Alexander Pavlovich want to maintain the same stable play in the first two rounds, it is obviously difficult, so in Michaels's view, instead of counting on Larry Hughes and Alexander Pavlovich, It's better to count on James to explode in this game.

"Elle, know that basketball is round, and anything is possible until the game is over." In order to refute Michaels, Magic Johnson said a nonsense that he didn't believe, and after Magic Johnson finished speaking, it immediately caused Michaels to laugh.

While Michaels and Magic Johnson were talking and laughing, the Pacers, who won the jump ball, had already been dribbled through the half court by Tony Allen.

I don't know if it was because of Mike Brown's instructions or James's own request, after Meng Xu received a pass from Tony Allen, the Cavaliers did not wrap Meng Xu, but let James defend Meng Xu alone.

Since James decided to participate in the draft in advance, every summer after that, James will almost stay with Meng Xu to train, so James is very familiar with Meng Xu, perhaps this is the main reason why James decided to defend Meng Xu alone.

Although James is very familiar with Meng Xu's technical characteristics and even every subtle action habit, in this defense, James is still very focused, because in countless heads-up battles in the past, even though James knows what kind of action Meng Xu may make next, James's body will react instinctively many times, in professional terms, this is the performance of the body not keeping up with the brain.

When Meng Xu, who was leaning on his side, began to move, James stared intently at Meng Xu's shoulders and head while clinging to Meng Xu's body, trying to judge Meng Xu's next move by the amplitude of Meng Xu's shoulder swing and the direction of the head tilt.

I have to say that James, who is concentrated, is still very good in defense, Meng Xu failed to deceive James by feintting twice in a row, but after Meng Xu really completed the turn, James had already blocked Meng Xu's breakthrough route in advance, but after Meng Xu completed the turn, he opened up enough distance between him and James to start by himself.

After completing the turn, Meng Xu's next half-truth and half-truth sideways acceleration put James in a dilemma, if he stood in place and was unmoved, then Meng Xu would definitely continue to accelerate, and get rid of himself directly like a stake, if he moved, then Meng Xu would inevitably retract his steps next, and then break through in the opposite direction, for Meng Xu's breakthrough start-up method, James also had no way.

Although he already knew what the outcome of his move was, James still stubbornly went to block Meng Xu's breakthrough route, and sure enough, as soon as James left the place, Meng Xu accelerated to break through in the opposite direction.

And the Cavaliers obviously had a plan for this, after Meng Xu got rid of James, the Cavaliers changed defenses through a wave of defenses, and on the premise of not letting go of any Pacers player, Drew Gooden occupied Meng Xu's route to the basket in advance, and as for the Cavaliers' other interior line, Zajunas Ilgoskas, was also ready to wait for the opportunity behind Drew Gooden.

When Drew Gooden took a step ahead and stood on Meng Xu's path to the basket, Meng Xu did not change the direction of the breakthrough, but continued to accelerate forward, and when he was about to collide with Drew Gooden, Meng Xu stopped his steps and immediately jumped up.

"So high." Just when Drew Gooden jumped up at the moment when Meng Xu jumped, he also jumped up and was ready to block Meng Xu's jumper, but Drew Gooden was surprised to find that Meng Xu, who was nearly 10 cm shorter than himself, was at least 20 cm taller than himself in terms of starting height.

Although Drew Gooden's blocking action has been completely made, Drew Gooden's palm can't touch the basketball thrown by Meng Xu at all, not only the height difference between the two sides in the air, but also when Meng Xu shoots in the air, Drew Gooden has already begun to land.

Looking at Meng Xu, who was waving to the audience with his hands raised in the cheers of the audience, James standing behind Meng Xu clenched his fists, his eyes were full of fighting spirit and fighting spirit, this round, he lost, but James was not discouraged.

Where you fall, you have to get up!
