Chapter 109: Alternate James
If asked who is the most dominant player in the league today, nine out of 10 people will say LeBron James, and the remaining one will only be a lifelong fan of James. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
There is no doubt that James is a symbol of this era, and the title of the first person in the league is irreplaceable, especially leading the Cavaliers to win the championship, which makes James step into the altar, which is enough to be compared with the gods of antiquity and Michael Jordan.
James has the domineering and dominant leadership temperament of the world, because James is not only good enough personally, but also makes his teammates better.
James's ball skills are undoubted, scoring is like picking up a bag, throughout today's league, there are only a handful of one-on-one who can prevent James, and what is even more terrifying is that James also has the same passing skills as a point guard, outstanding overall view and delicate passing skills, making James one of the most comprehensive players in history.
Not only that, James' defensive ability is also breathtaking, whether it is individual defense or assistant defense, he is at the top level of the league.
Therefore, to defeat the Cavaliers, it is necessary to work LeBron James, Wang Zhuo knows this truth, so he studied more than a dozen tactical plans to contain James before the game.
Wang Zhuo is accustomed to James's style of play, at the beginning of the game, James is more about making balls for his teammates, taking the lead in letting his teammates enter the rhythm of the game, and when the game enters a critical moment, James will not hesitate to take up the team's offensive power and dominate the situation on the field.
James, who can both attack and assist, is the most difficult to defeat, so the tactics arranged by Wang Zhuo before the game are to squeeze James's passing line and freeze the feel of other players in the Cavaliers.
James is the emperor who dominates the world, so strong that he is unmatched, but Wang Zhuo does not confront him at all, but does his best to cut off the emperor's wings and eradicate the emperor's right-hand man.
Therefore, in the first wave of the Cavaliers' offense, James fell into an isolated situation, Grant stuck to Irving, Porzingis died to Lefou, so that the Cavaliers' most threatening offensive firepower was extinguished, and James instantly didn't know who to pass the ball to.
As for Shambaught and Thompson, the role is more reflected in the defense, and the role on the offensive end is minimal, perhaps James at this time will miss the nerve knife of Jr. Smith very much, because this kind of defense is most afraid that the opponent has an unreasonable, convulsive shooter to tear the defense.
The defensive strategy is preliminarily finalized, and more importantly, the tactical arrangement of the offensive end, after all, the final victory requires more points than the opponent, Wang Zhuo's tentative policy is to find a breakthrough from Lefou, if it doesn't work, Wang Zhuo will implement another set of offensive tactics.
Lefou's offensive means and card skills belong to a super high level, but Lefou's footsteps and bounce are very average, which is also destined to be unable to become a top defensive player, since coming to the Cavaliers, Lefu is more of an outside battery, and is no longer the two-pair machine of the Timberwolves.
The Cavaliers' first offense ended in a missed forced layup by James, after Porzingis grabbed the rebound, Grant dribbled across the half court, Porzingis mentioned a high pick-and-roll, Rose ambushed in the left bottom corner, Anthony stopped at a step inside the 45-degree three-point line on the right side, and Noah stood under the basket and circled in front of Thompson.
Grant borrowed the cover, bypassing Porzingis to burst into the penalty area, because Thompson was left behind by Noah, Love hurriedly moved from the side to make up for the defense, Grant knocked back, and then quickly ran to the bottom right corner, Porzingis received the ball, against Owen, briefly formed a misalignment.
The Cavaliers' sense of switching defense is very good, Irving and Love made eye contact for a moment, and quickly moved to Grant, Love mentioned that the high post re-defended Porzingis, but Porzingis seized the short change air gap and quickly cut into the basket with the ball, while Love's footsteps moved too slowly, and he didn't have time to follow the defense, so he could only look back at Porzingis jumping up in the air and tyrannizing the basket.
The game just started, the first goal didn't mean anything, the Cavaliers didn't particularly care, Irving received the ball in the backcourt, carried Grant to the frontcourt, and James received Irving's pass again near the 45-degree three-point line on the left side.
With the lesson of the first attack, James was not in a hurry to break through with the ball, but looked around at the movement of the Cavaliers players on the court, and suddenly, he saw that Rose was blocked by Thompson, and Shambaugh took the opportunity to fall into the bottom corner to form an empty space.
James did not hesitate to start, jumping and dribbling into the inside, but James did not force a layup, but chose to break through the ball, and at the moment of jumping, a horizontal long pass, the ball flew to Shambaugh in the bottom right corner.
When James had a picture of Shambaugh receiving the ball, raising a missile, and successfully bombing the basket, the reality was contrary to his imagination, and Rose suddenly turned around and shot vertically, blocking James's passing lane.
"Bang!"
James' pass was so strong that Rose touched the ball but didn't make a steal, and the ball changed course and flew straight out of the baseline and smashed into the floor out of bounds with a dull sound.
The referee signaled for Rose to touch the ball out of the baseline, the Cavaliers sent a throw-in in the front court, and Shambaugh dropped the ball to James, and then quickly ran into the field to cover for James.
The situation on the court is very strange, as long as James holds the ball, the Knicks players take the initiative to pull away, leaving only Noah to guard the inside, which seems to deliberately leave space for James to play one-on-one, but the rest of the players are guarded with no space.
Wang Zhuo sat on the bench of the Knicks and sighed: Van Gundy's defense is really very routine, and James is destined to be alone in this game.
James couldn't find a suitable passing opportunity, so he had to face Anthony directly, one-on-one single, James turned his back and carried Anthony to the inside.
Anthony did not lose to James in body and strength, arching his body and resisting James to the death, and in an instant, the Quick Loan Arena fell into a deathly silence, and the fans held their breath one by one, for fear that the sound of breathing would disturb James.
Onnick and Barkley also glared angrily, and they didn't dare to blink, for fear of missing the head-to-head duel between the two proud sons of the 03 platinum generation.
