On May 30, the Staples Center held the second game of the finals. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

"Audience friends, audience friends, welcome to the second game of the 15-16 Spurs season finals, the two sides of the game are the Lakers and the Cavaliers, and today is still the home court of the Lakers. The Lakers defeated the Cavaliers in the last game to claim the first win of the series. And today's game is extremely important for the backward Cavaliers. Obviously, both sides have undoubtedly prepared well and this match is sure to be a very competitive one. Now let's look at the starting line-ups for both sides. The Cavaliers' starting lineup today is Irving, Deron Williams, James, Love and Thompson, Tyronn Lue made a little adjustment, he put Deron in the starting lineup, undoubtedly to increase the offensive firepower of the starting lineup, and put Shambaugh on the bench undoubtedly to strengthen the defense. Looking at the Lakers again, the starting lineup sent by Chu Xuan today is Kobe Bryant, Antetokounmpo, Noll, Gasol and Towns. The overall height of the Lakers' lineup is too high, I don't know what the two sides can play? ”

For the spectators, putting Gasol in the starting line-up was something that no one expected. However, Chu Xuan's doing so was undoubtedly a challenge and an attempt. You know, if the Lakers' lineup can work, then it will also be extremely beneficial for this series. Because LaVine is on the bench, the Lakers' bench firepower is undoubtedly stronger, and in this case, the Cavaliers will undoubtedly face a greater challenge.

In fact, Chu Xuan also had some consideration in doing this, and he was not blindly taking risks. The starting lineup replaced LaVine with Gasol, and the Lakers' lineup changed from a regular lineup to a three-inside play. For a long time, the Lakers have used three interior play more often. At least in recent seasons, the Lakers have been using a three-inside style of play many times with injuries to LaVine and Antetokounmpo, and it has been very effective.

Chu Xuan's choice to use the three interior lines is also due to the lack of strength of the Cavaliers' interior lines, because Thompson and Love are not particularly strong interior lines. Therefore, if the Lakers put three inside, the Cavaliers will definitely face a great challenge. Furthermore, Noelben is an alternative player who can swing to the number three position. With his height and defensive ability, James is definitely in great trouble. Then there's Antetokounmpo, who is a sinister player who can swing to point guard, and having him play the No. 2 position and defend Delon or Shambaugh is definitely overwhelming. Therefore, judging from this lineup, the Lakers almost have a certain advantage in every matchup.

"Guys, we have an advantage overall. There is absolutely no problem with hitting them. Now it's still about defending and protecting the rebound. Do as we were scheduled, but be patient ......"

After hearing what Chu Xuan said, Kobe Bryant and the others immediately responded.

"Okay, head, don't worry, we know what to do."

"Don't worry, head, we will definitely play every round."

"I'm definitely going to do my job, as long as we do a good job of defending together, LeBron will definitely have a lot of trouble today."

……

Under the gossip, Chu Xuan just smiled, and then said: "It's very simple, LeBron James can't play adversity, so be careful, at the beginning of the game, we must strive to stay ahead at all times...... As long as you can stay ahead for a while, everything will be fine. ”

************

In the Cavaliers' rest area, James was expressionless, with his head down and not knowing what he was thinking. And beside him, Tyronn Lue also looked serious, he was feeling a little surprised and headache because of the Lakers' lineup arrangement today, he really didn't expect Chu Xuan to arrange the lineup like this, which made him have to think about what bad impact the Lakers would have on the Cavaliers if they played like this.

Tyronn Lue first thought of James, and he keenly judged that the Lakers' lineup arrangement was the most restrained by James, because when Antetokounmpo and Noll were on the floor at the same time, the Cavaliers' forward line was definitely the most restrained. Because, the two best defensive players on the Lakers are Noll and Antetokounmpo, and importantly, both of them are very good at defending James.

"Kevin, you're going to get to this position a little bit later, and try to give LeBron as much space as possible. Then Kyrie, your advantage is the breakout and shooting. Wait for Kevin to pull it out. If LeBron is pressed by defense, you try to take certain shots, and if necessary, you pull it out for Kyrie......"

Tyronn Lu attached great importance to Chu Xuan's changes, and he immediately made some tactical changes in earnest.

James, Owen, and Love also listened to Tyronn Lue's arrangement very seriously, and then nodded their heads. They all know the importance of this kind of game, so at this time, he will take any change very seriously.

"Ray, and Iman Shamchambaugh, your job is to limit the opponent's second line-up, and then put more defensive pressure on them, and definitely not give them any easy chance to attack! In addition, and most importantly, the opponent's overall height must be high, and their shooting ability will be limited, and then, we will seriously do a good job of helping defense, and never let them get close to the basket. ”

……

Tyronn Lue kept chattering, he gave a little targeted guidance to everyone, and the time passed quickly, and suddenly the atmosphere of the scene became enthusiastic, and it turned out that the game was about to start.

"Cheer up, you must grasp the start of the game, you must get the lead......"

Chu Xuan showed a faint smile on his face, he swept his gaze to the field, then clapped his hands, and signaled to the players around him: "Okay, let's play, don't be too stressed, just keep a relaxed attitude." ”

********～

The game began, and as Crawford's whistle blew, players from both sides jumped the ball, and Noll and Thompson battled for the ball, and with the advantage of height, Noll easily got the first ball for the Lakers!

"The Lakers attacked, Kobe Bryant organized the offense, Giannis responded with a counter-run, and Towns went to the high post to get the ball and attract the bag. Norris Noll dropped into the low post and easily put a blue hand under the basket close to the basket. ”

The first goal was played, Tyronn Lue couldn't help frowning slightly, judging from the Lakers' offensive performance this time, he could see a little purpose of Chu Xuan, Chu Xuan undoubtedly wanted to attract the Cavaliers inside through Downs and Gasol, and then let Noll go to the inside to score, so that James became a hole in the defensive end. Because although James claims to be able to defend five positions, it will be really difficult to do a good job if he really defends Knowle.

Tyronn Lue couldn't help but be a little worried in his heart, and he began to think about the strategy of the game, and he felt that he needed to make some changes, and it would be better to keep James on the outside. But what makes Tyronn Lue feel a headache is that no matter how it changes, James needs to face an interior player.

In fact, this is where the Lakers' roster advantage, because the Lakers' three interior players are all capable of three-point shooting, which makes it difficult for the Cavaliers to defend. Because if the Lakers are really going to pull two interior players to the outside and let one of them fall into the low post, then this is the most lethal.

……

It was the Cavaliers' turn to attack, James faced Knoll and wanted to break through, but was entangled by Knoll, and finally the offense ended in failure, passing the ball to Irving, who played strongly, and finally missed the shot under Antetokounmpo's interference, and the Lakers got the rebound and immediately launched a counterattack. The Lakers' offense this time is still Noll rotated to the inside, but this time the Cavaliers' Thompson went to help defend, and he relaxed his defense against Towns outside the three-point line. Knoll gave the ball to Downs, Downs received the ball, and the three-point shot was successful!

Seeing this scene, Tyronn Lu's heart suddenly felt indignant. Sure enough, as he expected, the Lakers really opened up the offense around the three-inside line, which is the advantage of this lineup.

The Cavaliers tried to attack for the second time, Leffle pulled to the high post to attract the bag, Thompson blocked and dismantled for Irving, Owen broke through to the inside line after Thompson blocked and dismantled, and after being blocked, Irving gave the ball to James, James was cutting in, that kind of momentum was extremely fierce, and it stands to reason that no one dared to stop James. Moreover, at this time, James's momentum is extremely strong, and he has already put on a dunk posture.

Surprisingly, Antetokounmpo popped up from the side and directly interfered with James' offense with his long arms. James dodged in time, and then shot and was shot out by Downs.

When this scene appeared, the Staples Center suddenly went crazy. The roars of the fans rang out everywhere, and the momentum of the home team suddenly soared.

"LeBron James is blocked, beautiful defense, the Lakers' teamwork ability is too strong!"

"Wow, it's so exciting, I don't know how to describe my mood at this time, the game has just started, and it has already reached this level."

"You can't give LeBron James a chance, the Lakers are doing the right thing on this, and that's how it should be, I think the Lakers will win today's game."

……

James was blocked, which made many people not expect that this goal was indeed a bit too exciting. But Noll still seized the opportunity after Antetokounmpo, and waited for the opportunity to stage a good show of praying mantis catching cicadas and yellow finches!

"Damn, their defense is really against LeBron, I have to think about it, I can't let them succeed so easily." Taryn Lue frowned, and couldn't help but muttered to himself! At this point, although only two rounds have passed, the Cavaliers are completely at a disadvantage. His planned hope is to use the player's reverse run to contain the inside, so that Irving and James can kill inside! Because the Lakers' three-interior tactics completely restrain this, no matter how to attract defense, the Lakers' interior defense is always very good!

Tyronn Lue has a lot of headaches, and he feels the pressure, because the Lakers' lineup is extremely restrictive to the Cavaliers' inside and outside lines. Because Antetokounmpo's defensive coverage on the flanks is unimaginable. The Cavaliers' pitchers are no threat from the outside!

"The Lakers offense won again, 8:0, Tyronn Lue asked for a timeout!"

With the Lakers hitting another three-pointer, the first timeout of the game came to pass. After being beaten by his opponent to an 8-0 start, Tyronn Lue made a quick decision and called a timeout. And what is amazing is that only two minutes have passed in the game at this time!

When the player left the game, Chu Xuan couldn't stop looking satisfied, these three attacks, the execution of the players was impeccable. The cooperation of Noll, Downs and other five people fully brought out the advantages and threats of the three inside lines, which is extremely powerful. And for the opponent Cavaliers, it is undoubtedly extremely deadly......

"Good job, but Tyronn Lue will definitely change in the future." Chu Xuan thought for a while and said, "That's it, let's do this next, Giannis and Kobe will kill more inside, and the three insiders will try more three-point shooting and mid- and long-range shooting!" ”

……

Chu Xuan only made changes on offense, while on the defensive end, they didn't change at all. Because judging from the defense just now, the defensive pressure that this lineup gives the Cavaliers is immeasurable......

……

With the Cavaliers, Tyronn Lue looked serious, and it seemed that from the beginning of this game until now, there was no other expression on his face, and his pressure was always able to show on the surface.

"LeBron, you should feel that the opponent's biggest target is you, it's a big problem, but it's also a great opportunity for us. Here's what we're going to do...... Deron and Ray you play, TT rests, Kevin plays the No. 5 position, and LeBron you go to the No. 4 position. Hehe, since they want to play the big lineup, let's compete with them! Next, go all out to attack from the outside......"

……

Seeing the lineup sent by the Cavaliers, Chu Xuan's eyes couldn't help but light up. The Cavaliers actually sent a five-small lineup, which can really only be said to be too surprising to him! Seriously, he didn't expect it in the slightest, and he couldn't help but admire Tyronn Lue, this guy's brain really can't be underestimated!

Love plays the No. 5 position, James plays the No. 4 position, and the outside three have amazing shooting ability...... In fact, after the Cavaliers changed formations, the offensive end did explode immediately. Only a few dozen seconds after the game started after the timeout, the Cavaliers shot a three-pointer from DeLong, which was the Cavaliers' first athletic goal, and of course, the Cavaliers' first score in this game!

The Cavaliers' five-man lineup paid off a lot, and over the next five minutes, the Cavaliers scored 18 points, which is a very high offensive efficiency. However, on the other hand, on the Lakers' side, although there are a little problems in defense, the Lakers are still relatively good offensively.

Throughout the first quarter of the game, both sides made a lot of changes in a limited time, which made the game very, very exciting, and finally made the fans very cool to watch, and at the same time, they also paid a lot of attention to the players who performed well on both sides. The two sides each took two timeouts, and in the end, the Lakers under the command of Chu Xuan took the advantage, and after several twists and turns, the Lakers temporarily led the Cavaliers by 3 points at 30:27 in the first quarter.

In fact, the reason why the Lakers failed to pull the difference apart was because the Cavaliers' small lineup played a very, very big role.

……

In Tyronn Lue's small lineup, the most critical is actually James, after all, although James has lost a lot of offensive threat, he can still help the Cavaliers a lot in many ways. For example, in the case of Tyronn Lue's five-man lineup, James's playmaking tandem in the low post helped the Cavaliers catch up with the score for a while, and even overtook the score in the end, and finally entered the second quarter of the game with only a three-point disadvantage.

……

"We had to change our defense in the second quarter, and the opponent's preparation today showed us that today's game was obviously not going to end so easily. Well, that's going to require us to be patient, and I don't think I need to say much about that, I trust you. Chu Xuan began to think about a new game strategy: "Next, we have to do this defensively......

……

The Staples Center is full of people.

The heat generated by the competition is extremely strong, and this is the charm that the finals stage can bring!

At the beginning of the game, the bench lineups of the two sides battled each other for a few minutes, and the Lakers opened up a two-point gap to extend the lead to five points.

The two sides changed the main players, the Cavaliers changed back to the regular lineup, Ray Allen and Delon were left on the bench, and the last game, the Cavaliers almost won against the Lakers with this style of play!

……

The main players were on the floor, and the two sides began to fight offense again, but for the Lakers, their goal was still to do a good job of defending the Cavaliers. After all, in the playoff arena, defense is the foundation of everything!

In the first round of the main competition, the Cavaliers Shambaugh shot a ball, and the Lakers, relying on Kobe's mid-range shot, scored the two sides continued to have a fierce confrontation and dialogue! However, the scoring was only accidental, and the Lakers' defense finally reached a height, and the James-led Cavaliers were suddenly in trouble!

In about three minutes, the Cavaliers who defended the Lakers scored only 2 points, while the Lakers themselves scored nearly 10 points. As a result, the Lakers' lead has been widening beyond double digits!

However, then Tyronn Lue once again made an offensive and defensive tactical play, relying on the play of Love and the shooting of Deron and Ray Allen, the Cavaliers beat the Lakers 12-2 in the last two minutes of the second quarter, and the Lakers' lead suddenly narrowed. At the end of the final half, the Lakers temporarily led the Cavaliers by four points at 55:51, and the two sides were almost on the same starting line. (To be continued.) )
