Chapter 590: Cleveland Misses
At the end of the timeout, the Cavaliers served on the sideline in front of the court, and after Irving received the ball, he immediately called Lefu to help block and dismantle, and then looked back at the moon and sent the ball back to Lefou's hands, Lefu also lived up to the opportunity created by his teammates for him this time, and pulled up a three-point shot.
The Lakers served in the backcourt, and Ye Xuan made a gesture directly after controlling the ball and coming to the frontcourt, signaling his teammates to pull away and let him play alone. Continuous crotch dribbling, continuous feints, Ye Xuan's side also took out his own housekeeping skills, suddenly Ye Xuan accelerated, rushed towards George Hill's left, Hill hurriedly made up for the defense, and Ye Xuan's side was a sudden change of direction, forcibly pulled the ball back, and then restarted and rushed to the right hand, George Hill's defensive skills are indeed not bad, using the help of some small movements in his hand to successfully keep up with Ye Xuan's footsteps, but Ye Xuan also has a back move, After an emergency stop, the Buddha worship action finally succeeded in shaking the opponent away, and then took a step inward and threw a shot to score.
Although he scored this goal, Ye Xuan was not particularly satisfied, he knew that the physical strength he had consumed to score this goal was a bit large, if every ball was played like this, then it would be good if he could play 30 minutes in a game. Therefore, Ye Xuan secretly began to think about the next round of attack.
On the Cavaliers' side, the Cavaliers are still James' team after all, although James didn't touch the ball in the last round, but in this round, Hill still controlled the ball after half court, and passed the ball to James, allowing James to organize the offense. Solomon Hill is also cautious in the face of James, although Hill has played against James many times, but Solomon Hill has always been on the disadvantaged side, and Lao Zhan is also very witty, knowing that he has an advantage in the confrontation, so he first tried to force a breakthrough through Solomon Hill, and after being blocked, he was ready to use his back to hit Solomon Hill, but Solomon Hill's defense is no worse than last season, plus Randle on the side came to make up for it, So it didn't let James succeed either.
Defending James's singles, the Lakers also got a chance to counterattack, Gasol grabbed the backcourt rebound and immediately used his vision and pass to launch a fast attack, Ye Xuan ran in front of the horse, Gasol's pass was also sent to him steadily, but Ye Xuan knew that it was easy to be chased by James in this kind of fast attack, so Ye Xuan didn't dare to be too careless, after entering the opponent's penalty area, he leaned on Owen while looking back at the position of the opponent and his teammates, Then a move that pretended to go to the basket really shook Lao Zhan, and Ye Xuan also put the basketball in his hand into his arms at this time, and then sent it to his back, and there was a burst of cheers at the scene, because Wade behind him followed in time, just received Ye Xuan's back pass, and then completed a fast-break dunk.
The Cavaliers attacked again, Lao Zhan still held the ball and singled Solomon Hill, the plot of this round was very similar to the previous round, it was still Lao Zhan who forced a breakthrough, but after being stopped, Lao Zhan took the ball down and prepared to play with his back to the single, the Lakers' response on the side did not change, and it was still to let Randle go over to make up for the defense, which made Lao Zhan really have no chance to score, but James's side was not only strong in individual offense, A covert no-man pass passed the ball directly from the left side of Pickle Pepper to Tristan Thompson on the inside, and Tristan Thompson's side reacted quickly, turning and dunking directly before Randle had time to react.
But while the Cavaliers were celebrating the goal, they had no idea what they were going to do in the next few minutes. The Lakers served in the backcourt, Ye Xuan began to prepare to implement the plan he just thought of after receiving the ball, after coming to the front court and Wade for a block and dismantling, Ye Xuan quickly broke inward, Owen immediately came over to make up for the defense, Ye Xuan handed the ball to Wade with a return pass, and then quickly retreated outside the three-point line and pulled away to the other side of Wade, at this time, even if Owen wanted to go back to defend Wade, it was impossible, because as soon as he walked away, Ye Xuan's side was vacant, so that Ye Xuan could shoot three points in the empty position? It's no different from giving points.
Now the Cavaliers are embarrassed, Owen once again faced Ye Xuan because of the change of defense, although the physical confrontation between the two is not as disparity as when Ye Xuan played Curry, but it is also very difficult for Owen to prevent Ye Xuan, this round Owen just wants to try his best to stop Ye Xuan, but unfortunately Ye Xuan's feints made Owen lose his defensive position, and finally in order to prevent Ye Xuan from attacking the basket directly, Owen was also forced to choose a foul.
Ye Xuan walked to the free throw line and steadily hit all two free throws, and at this time, the Cavaliers also made personnel adjustments, replacing George Hill, who was responsible for defending Ye Xuan, with Korver, Korver's success rate in defending Ye Xuan is not high, when he was in the Eagles, because he was infinitely singled by Ye Xuan, his average playing time per game was nearly ten minutes less than when he faced other teams, which can be seen that Korver will definitely not be able to defend Ye Xuan. But at this time, the stiff tactics of the coach who were too good at masturbating showed themselves, and he still adjusted the personnel according to the tactics he used to play other teams, and replaced George Hill very simply.
The Cavaliers serve in the backcourt, after George Hill was replaced, the Cavaliers' ball control responsibility was directly handed over to Lao Zhan, Irving was placed in the position of scoring guard, so as long as he didn't let him attack with the ball, the ball was generally not passed to Irving, which also made Irving feel a little dissatisfied in disguise, but at least they are still sprinting to the championship now.
But there was a problem with the Cavaliers' offense this round, Lao Zhan held the ball and commanded his teammates to run, Owen's counterrun smoothly shook off Ye Xuan's defense with the help of Korver's blocking, and then he rushed into the inside, Lao Zhan naturally immediately passed the ball out of the gap, but Owen made a mistake when receiving the ball, the basketball got out of his hand and flew directly out of the bottom line, and the Cavaliers' offense ended in a mistake.
Looking back, the Lakers immediately began their own counterattack, but fortunately, in this round, the Lakers did not seize the opportunity to gradually widen the difference, Ye Xuan's chase three points ended in iron, and Korver's defense worked unexpectedly. The rebound was caught by Tristan Thompson, but the offensive rhythm of the Cavaliers was messed up, TT dribbled it after grabbing the rebound, and then took the ball and prepared to pass it to James or Irving, but he didn't expect that James and Irving both chose to break fast, at this time Ye Xuan seized the opportunity and sandwiched TT with Randle, the most witty point is that the two players of the Lakers did not choose to touch the ball, after all, they need to jump the ball after touching the ball for two or three seconds, And they didn't touch the ball, directly blocked the angle of TT's ball, and directly let him violate the rules for 8 seconds, at this time, when Lao Zhan wanted to come back to respond, it was too late.
In the end, TT violated the rules in eight seconds, and gave the ball to the Lakers again, in fact, in this case, generally speaking, the ball holder or coach can call a timeout, so that at least the ball can be guaranteed in their own hands, but at that time, TT was in a hurry under the bag of the two, and he didn't think of this stubble at all, but the scene was too good to watch the play but it was not called a timeout, which made people a little incomprehensible, maybe they wanted to save some timeouts, and then use it when needed. This can only be the reason for the Cleveland people to comfort themselves.
The Lakers served on the sideline in front of the court, this time the Lakers did not miss again, Ye Xuan directly entered the opponent's penalty area with the help of Gasol's cover, and then forcibly pulled up and hit the ball, Tristan Thompson's defense had problems again, he was supposed to make up the defense, he actually stood there directly and turned on the theater mode, which is similar to the coach who looked too confused on the sidelines.
There were mistakes in two consecutive rounds, and the Cavaliers began to become cautious when attacking, after Lao Zhan controlled the ball and came to the front court, he immediately passed the ball to Owen, and let Owen hold the ball alone, Owen did not call for blocking this time, and chose to force a breakthrough by himself, Ye Xuan did not follow closely this time, so that Owen found an opportunity, he successfully broke into the Lakers' interior line, but when he jumped to attack the basket, he was interfered by Randle, and he found that his jump height was not enough to avoid Randle's block, So he wanted to pass the ball to the outside line and reorganize the attack, but his ball was seen through by Ye Xuan, and he stretched out his hand to cut off his pass.
Then began to quickly counterattack, the broken ball in this place, plus the rapid counterattack is Ye Xuan and Wade, who are very fast players, so the speed of the Cavaliers' return to defense can't keep up at all, only Lao Zhan is alone, but he has to face Ye Xuan and Wade, plus Ye Xuan's running position is obviously towards the bottom corner of the three-point line, so Lao Zhan can only follow the past, after all, if Ye Xuan is put to shoot three points, it is basically no different from sending points, and Ye Xuan is not greedy, since Lao Zhan has made up for it, Then he passed the ball and sent the ball to Wade, who had already run to the opponent's free throw line, and Wade received the ball and dunked again.
There was another burst of cheers at the scene, after all, now the Lakers have finally achieved an advantage of more than five points, and this continuous way of making opponent mistakes and easily completing the offense is indeed pleasing to the audience at the scene, in contrast, the players of the Cavaliers are not so excited, three consecutive mistakes, so that their morale instantly dropped to the bottom, and the coach who is too good to play finally did not continue to be in a daze, called a timeout, and began to prepare to arrange tactics, By the way, Tristan Thompson, who was not in good form, was replaced.
After the timeout, the game continued, the Cavaliers handed the ball to James to deal with, it seems that the coach who is too good at taking out his mastery during the timeout - handed the ball to James, James once again held the ball to face Solomon Hill, this time James did not continue to force him alone, but called Love to block and dismantle, and then rushed into the restricted area to force a layup to hit the ball, Randle jumped up and interfered, but still did not prevent James from hitting the ball, it can be seen that James has a strong desire to win this game, So at this critical moment, we are also very resolute.
And their defense has also been adjusted, let James defend Ye Xuan, so that at least Ye Xuan has no way to use his body to play strongly, Ye Xuan is not stupid, since you have let James defend me, then I will respect you, so Ye Xuan chose to pass the ball to Wade, Wade held the ball and called a block and then broke through the ball to find Solomon Hill, who pulled up a three-point shot, or missed, today's Lakers outside feel really bad, except for Ye Xuan, No other player has ever hit a three-pointer.
Lefu jumped high and grabbed the backcourt rebound, and then immediately passed the ball to George Hill on the side, Hill is also a champion guard, and the speed is not slow, he immediately seized the opportunity to push a wave of fast attack, fortunately, Ye Xuan's retreat was very fast, and he didn't give the Cavaliers any chance to break fast, Hill was stopped by Ye Xuan halfway, and had to slow down, and then handed the ball to James who caught up from behind.
James held the ball in the high post again, this time he still repeated the old trick, played a gesture to signal Love to come forward to help block and dismantle, this time Randle followed, but after the block, Randle's change of defense was not able to contain James, and he passed Randle in two big steps, and then James easily made a layup before Gasol had time to make up for it, and scored two more points.
The most stable point of the entire Cavaliers team is still Lao Zhan here, and the Lakers have nothing to do with him, although three players are prepared to take turns defending and consuming him, but when his physical strength is still sufficient, the Lakers still have no big way to take him. After serving in the backcourt, Ye Xuan silently controlled the ball and came to the front court, and after coming to the front court, Ye Xuan passed the ball to Wade again.
After Wade received the ball, he still ran according to the tactics, but this time the direction of his distribution was no longer on Solomon Hill's side, but Ye Xuan, who used the off-ball run and Randle's off-ball cover to get rid of Lao Zhan's defense, Ye Xuan received the ball outside the three-point line in the bottom corner of the left corner, shook the defensive Korver lightly, and then dribbled a little to the side, and then pulled it up to make a three-point shot, and the ball was also the second three-point shot that the Lakers hit in this game.
