Chapter 595 The Precarious Pistons
In the second quarter of the game, LeBron James was obviously superb, he hit 7 of 9 shots, including 4 of 4 three-pointers, and scored 18 points. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
Such a comprehensive performance is enough to be called an all-round performance, and coupled with LeBron James's data in the first quarter, LeBron James cut down in two quarters, 36 points, 8 assists, 6 rebounds, 4 steals, and 3 blocks of all-round data, of course, it is still 3 turnovers, but the flaws are not hidden.
Such a LeBron James Pistons team has no way to limit him, has an extremely high shooting percentage, and is willing to share the ball, so after the end of the second quarter, the Pistons only led by two points at 66:64, and it seems that LeBron James's hot form will continue.
In contrast, Osborne's performance was a bit ordinary, although he also scored 29 points at the end of the half, but he scored 22 points in the first quarter of the game, which means that he basically didn't perform in the second quarter of his half-29, and that's the problem, and he was compared to LeBron James in the second quarter.
Osborne himself doesn't have any feelings, no matter what kind of player he is, there will be times when he feels bad, but even if he doesn't feel good, he has the ability to increase his score to 25+, as long as he shoots enough, he will always score a dozen goals, so Osborne himself always has no feelings.
At the end of the second quarter, when he saw that his stats surpassed Osborne, LeBron James was very happy and laughed like a child, but he was not complacent because of this, after all, if you want to beat the Pistons, you can't see the effect all at once, you have to be like the Heat, and suppress the Pistons all over the court.
The third quarter of the game went as scheduled, but if Osborne's three-point shot was still like the second quarter, the game might have ended early.
Unfortunately, to the disappointment of the Cavaliers fans, Osborne showed good form at the beginning of the third quarter, and in the first round of the Pistons' offense, Osborne took advantage of his coquettish move to throw off the Cavaliers' defender and threw in a three-pointer.
LeBron James knew that things would not be so simple, Osborne would not be in a slump all the time, but he had already been mentally prepared, and after coming back, LeBron James also threw a three-pointer directly in response, and Cavaliers fans still like to watch this kind of hero ball.
Osborne didn't think much about LeBron James's-for-tat play, he just played according to his own thoughts, and he wouldn't be angry about the opponent's behavior, of course, in order for the Pistons to win, Osborne would never let LeBron James be too arrogant.
He has repeatedly dealt heavy blows to the Cavaliers with his personal ability, but LeBron James also uses his own way to help the team improve its combat effectiveness, LeBron James This guy can not only score, but also assist teammates to attack, defend, and grab rebounds, anyway, he can do anything, and he does it quite well.
The Cavaliers' offense is thriving, but the Pistons are a little embarrassed, because the success rate of the Pistons who have no one else other than Osborne is really low, which is a very big problem.
Chaunsibilups also wanted to activate his other teammates at this time, he knew that Osborne's three-point shooting was very powerful, but if the Pistons wanted to achieve the final victory, Osborne alone could not win, even if Osborne could really beat one team on his own, but you can't always expect Osborne to beat all teams.
Chauncee Billups sent shells to the Pistons inside many times, but unfortunately the Pistons interior players were a little out of shape today, Rasheed Wallace's mid-range shot missed many times, and Ben Wallace's dunk was also stiffly covered by Cavaliers center Ilgoskas.
And the reverse is different, LeBron James first assisted his teammates to shoot three-pointers, and then received a pass from his teammate Eric Snow to score a dunk, his breakthrough made Rasheed Wallace and Ben Wallace unguardable, at this time LeBron James is not the kind of tank forward, the breakthrough speed is very fast, and the offensive awareness is very good.
The Cavaliers' collective play suppressed Osborne's individual play, such a picture is very strange, the Pistons, which were originally known for team basketball, actually relied on Osborne's individual play to not rout, and the playing style with LeBron James as the absolute core turned out to be more like team basketball.
In this way, the Pistons' score gap is in danger of being widened, Osborne's individual offensive performance during this period has been good, and he has scored 15 points, but the Cavaliers players have performed even better, in addition to LeBron James's 11 points, his teammate Ilgoskas also got 6 points and 6 rebounds, Drew Gooden also scored 8 points, and the rest of the Pistons team did not score much, so the Pistons became precarious.
Larry Brown also felt too embarrassed to see the performance of the Pistons players, which was not worthy of the Pistons' defending championship status at all, he directly called a timeout, and the Pistons players were also a little embarrassed, after all, they couldn't believe that their performance was so bad, but the facts were in front of them, and they could not doubt it.
Larry Brown trained the team's main players before it ended, and he originally hoped that Osborne could rest as usual, but at present, it seems that such extravagant behavior is simply impossible, after all, the Pistons still need Osborne's play to stabilize their position.
It's just that after the timeout came back, the Pistons still didn't find a way to limit LeBron James, and the two masters of Rashid Wallace and Ben Wallace couldn't keep up with LeBron James, and if the defense they relied on for survival was ineffective, their role would be more than half useless.
On the Cavaliers' side, LeBron James also used his ability to kill the Pistons to the fullest, and Osborne realized clearly at this time that if the Pistons didn't strengthen it, the dream of three consecutive championships would be shattered.
