LeBron James dug such a big hole for himself, and someone will bring it up again in the future, and his embarrassed expression at the time is overflowing, but he is still quite confident at the moment. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info

The debate lasted three or four days and didn't end until the Pistons took on the Cleveland Cavaliers on the road.

The game was played at the Cleveland Cavaliers' home arena quick loan center, and the Pistons were booed by more than 20,000 spectators on the Cavaliers when they came here, because Osborne finally decided to follow Larry Brown's arrangement and take a turn, which made LeBron James fans think that Osborne looks down on their little emperor, so when Osborne came out in a suit and leather shoes, he was immediately booed by Cavaliers fans.

Both teams completed their warm-up in this boiling and noisy environment, and Osborne was at ease on the bench, and he didn't need to be here, but he still wanted to see if he could beat the Cavaliers with LeBron James without his own Pistons.

The warm-up exercise is over, the official match is about to begin, and both sides have sent their lineups.

Cavaliers head coach Mike Brown fielded his starting lineup, center Zajunas Ilgoskas, power forward Drew Gooden, small forward LeBron James, shooting guard Larry Hughes, and point guard Eric North.

The Pistons also sent the original classic starting five Tigers lineup, this lineup looks a little old, but no one can stop it.

At the beginning of the first quarter of the game, Cavaliers center Ilgoskas and Pistons center Ben Wallace competed for the ball, and it was obvious that the Cavaliers center had the advantage, after all, Ilgoskas was aged, tall and arm length were crushed by Ben Wallace, so the basketball was easily picked up by Ilgoskas.

Ilgoskas did not hand over the basketball to his team's point guard Alexno, but directly to LeBron James, who received the basketball and crushed Taysha Amplins with his sizeable physique, broke into the interior and dunked once across Rasheed Wallace's defense.

LeBron James's one-stop slam dunk immediately made the fans and audience boil, and the commentary seat was also very excited, it seemed that they all regarded LeBron James as a savior, but they may not have thought that this little emperor who was adored and loved by them would go away, and in the most unacceptable way.

After LeBron James completed this dunk, he also showed his muscles to the audience, Osborne watched LeBron James is indeed getting stronger and stronger, this physique is really the same every year, but he misses the tall and thin LeBron James.

Just when Osborne sighed, the Pistons' counterattack was also quickly launched, without Osborne's three-point shot, the Pistons' offensive core returned to Richard Hamilton's hands, Chauncey Billups controlled the ball and advanced, Richard Hamilton ran without the ball, and Larry Hughes, who defended him, had just recovered from an injury, so there was no way to keep up with Richard Hamilton, Richard Hamilton easily ran out of an empty space, and then received a pass from Chauncey Billups to complete a mid-range shot, and the two sides tied in the first round.

Osborne is really envious of watching the Pistons score so smoothly, but as soon as he goes up, the Pistons' tactics will have to change, after all, if you want to play with him as the core, you can't guarantee the offensive firepower of the Pistons team.

Then both teams accelerated the pace of the game, LeBron James personally held the ball, and then after he passed Tysa Amplins, he distributed the basketball to Ilgoskas standing under the basket, Ilgoskas received the basketball is a dunk, the Pistons are not to be outdone, Chauncey Billups and Richard Hamilton also performed empty dunk moves.

Then the Pistons gradually strengthened their defense, and the Pistons interior players wrapped up Ilgoskas, so that he could not catch the basketball, so that the Cavaliers' interior line would be wasted.

However, the key to defending Ilgoskas is not with him, but with LeBron James, after all, LeBron James's passing is not in vain.

The Pistons' perimeter players only defend LeBron James' breakaway passes, regardless of his shots, so they are betting on LeBron James' bad shots.

Sure enough, LeBron James hit the basket many times without success, so he had to shoot by himself, although he felt average when shooting, but a few basketballs still went in, in the first quarter of the game, the Pistons' defense became more and more tacit, when LeBron James wanted to pass the basketball to other teammates, it was either broken or cut, and the Pistons took the opportunity to play a wave of 12:4 attack waves, which established their lead in the game in one fell swoop.

At the end of the first quarter, the Pistons led the Cavaliers by 4 points at 28:24, and the first quarter of the game can be said to be the Pistons players against the Cavaliers LeBron James alone, LeBron James alone got 12 points, 5 assists and 2 rebounds.

Regarding LeBron James's performance, Osborne feels that this data is very average and normal, after all, this is the data that LeBron James gets, and people are accustomed to his stability.

In the second quarter of the game, the Pistons' defense was really getting stronger and stronger, LeBron James was also blocked by Rasheed Wallace who was defending collectively, and it was the basketball that was grabbed by Tysian Springs.

Then Richard Hamilton took on the banner of the counterattack, he and LeBron James formed a personal situation against Biao, LeBron James is very positive, the point difference in the first quarter of the game must be smoothed, and Richard Hamilton also made many shots to help the team solve the problem of offensive firepower.

The offensive strength of the two teams is about the same, LeBron James is also a little unwilling, his many perfect assists were lost by his teammates, what a waste of these opportunities, the Pistons' increased defensive intensity made LeBron James have a sense of pressure, this sense of pressure made him unable to play to the fullest, and LeBron James also tried to use his own passing to guide his teammates to score, but his intentions were seen by the Pistons.

In fact, the game between the Pistons and the Cavaliers has reached this point, and the Pistons still firmly hold the initiative, and they still lead the Cavaliers by 6 points at 56:50, which almost became an insurmountable barrier for LeBron James, and LeBron James is relying on his own strength to fight against the Pistons starting five.

The Pistons led the Cavaliers by eight points at 67:59 at halftime, which was still a relatively safe lead, and Osborne was also satisfied with the Pistons' halftime performance.
