Chapter Twenty-Six: Victory in the First Battle (Subscription Request, Reward)
Mike Brown thought for a moment and then said, "I don't know what the opposing manager will do next, but I hope everyone will continue to play the way they played, and don't hesitate when there is space." I won't blame you if you don't enter, I need you to have a fearless heart."
Brown stopped talking.
What will be the result of the restart?
Brooks received the ball and slowly dribbled towards the halfcourt, Gibson stuck to Xiaobu's body, making Xiaobu feel very uncomfortable, but Xiaobu's dribbling was very good, and he was not afraid of being stealed.
Bringing the ball to the front, Boo steadied himself and looked for a good opportunity. At the same time, Yao Ming was stuck in the inside line, and Asik was grabbing the position.
Asik has played a lot of playing time in this game, and he has also played so far, and his performance is also very good, although he only scored six points, he grabbed eight rebounds, four of which were frontcourt rebounds, and there is no doubt that Asik proved his ability in rebounding in this game.
You must know that it is very difficult to grab a rebound on Yao Ming's head, but Asik still grabbed it. That's why Brown was willing to give him so much time.
Yao Ming finally grabbed a good position, Xiaobu immediately understood and passed the ball to Yao Ming on the inside, Yao Ming directly hit Asik with his back, just when Asik thought Yao Ming was going to attack by himself, suddenly Yao Ming passed.
Passed to Xiao Bu's hand that had just been vacated outside, Xiao Bu received the ball and threw the basketball in his hand very resolutely, which was a three-point shot.
However, maybe because he just came on the court, or his character was lost, Xiao Bu failed to shoot this empty three-point shot, and Xiao Bu was also very annoyed about it.
However, Yao Ming and Asik on the inside began to get stuck and were ready to grab this rebound, who will grab this rebound?
Yao Ming raised his hands high, ready to catch the ball, at this moment, Asik fanned the ball that was about to reach Yao Ming's hand, and fanned it near James, James picked up the ball without any hesitation, and then launched a counterattack.
James accelerated, and accelerated, Artest followed, and there was an old Barry in front of him, but obviously the old Barry couldn't give James much of a threat. In other words, James's goal can be said to be a dozen and a half, can Atai catch up with it later? Estimated impossible.
When James was about to reach the free throw line, he suddenly accelerated, and as soon as he took a step into the free throw line, James jumped high, Barry was completely subconsciously out of the way, and a voice in his heart told him that if you don't get out of the way, it is estimated that he will be knocked away, and at the same time, he can't stop James's imperative dunk, why bother? So the elder Barry chose to give way, and this is the second time he has chosen to give way in this game.
But this is understandable, after all, James's explosive power is there, if you think about the idea of creating an offensive foul, standing in front of James and letting him hit it, it is obviously not a wise choice, and besides, this is just a preseason game, it is obviously not worth it.
Adelman smiled off the field, without a trace of dissatisfaction on his face, this is what he explained before the game, this game and when there is a risk of injury at any time, don't make up for it stupidly, it's not wise, if it's really injured, it will obviously hurt the team very much.
James showed his super ability to stay in the air at this moment, gliding in the air for a distance of nearly a meter before slamming the basketball into the basket.
After landing on the ground, James instantly enjoyed the warm applause and cheers from the audience and fans, this is the little emperor James in their minds.
James enjoyed the moment and it was his favourite moment.
The Rockets came back from a timeout and failed to make their first attack, but were counterattacked by the Cavaliers, and the difference was stretched to 13 points again, and the situation was getting worse and worse for the Rockets.
Brooks, after halftime, was directly a three-point stop, bell, the basketball popped out of the frame again, and the rebound was grabbed by Asik, who had nine rebounds.
Asik, who grabbed the rebound, passed the ball to Gibson, who immediately counterattacked with the ball. This time, Gibson did not choose to pass the ball, but quickly brought the ball to the halfcourt, and when it came to the three-point line, Gibson pulled a quick stop to chase down the three-point shot. brush, the three-point hit again, the Cavaliers completely beat the rocket, and the score was stretched to sixteen points by the Cavaliers.
Seeing this, Ah Shuai didn't choose to pause, because he thought it was useless to call a timeout now, because the knight's feel and momentum were completely pulled up, and when the two got up at the same time, there was no solution, unless you could suppress the knight on the attacker, there was no way to beat the current knight.
Similarly, Adelman does not plan to replace Maddie on the field, for safety, now the score is sixteen points, if this lineup on the field can not chase the separation to within ten points, he will definitely not replace Maddie on the field, maybe he will replace Yao Ming in the next dead ball.
Brooks received the ball, quickly dribbled across the half court, and gave the ball to Yao Ming on the free throw line, Xiaobu didn't dare to shoot like that this time, obviously this time it felt very bad, and he couldn't shoot, and if he threw it again, it would be a wave of throwing, so Xiaobu passed the ball to Yao Ming and let the inside core let him deal with the offense.
Yao Ming catches the ball at the free throw line, shoots directly from the middle distance, brushes, and the ball goes into the net. Yao Ming is still very good in terms of shooting, especially mid-range shooting.
Yao Ming's ball played a role in stopping the bleeding, but the Rockets were still a full fourteen points behind the Cavaliers, how to chase them?
The next game went on little by little, and by the time the game was over, the Cavaliers had already led the Rockets by a full seventeen points by 115 points to 98 points.
Adelman didn't call a timeout or anything, and at a dead ball, he removed Yao Ming and other main players one by one, replaced them with full substitutes, and began to exercise the time for substitutes and rookies, and Dorsey and Green, who were traded this year, all appeared.
The Cavaliers have not replaced Huang Jun on the court in the fourth quarter until now, it has always been a lineup, and when the score has not been closer, Brown has no choice to let Huang Jun play again. Now seeing that the opponent has removed the main players, Mike Brown has also replaced the main players with a wave of his hand.
When the whistle blew at the end of the game, the Cavaliers finally defeated the Cavaliers by 123 points to 1006, ending the first China game, and the second Shanghai game will be held the day after tomorrow.
The Cavaliers' starters played very well throughout the game, Huang Jun got 20 points plus 13 assists, James got 25 points, 8 rebounds and 7 assists, although most of the ball is in Huang Jun's hands, but James's data is still very good, of course, James is now ignoring these useless data, and only wants a championship.
Battier started the game and hit five three-pointers and five three-pointers from the field to finish with fifteen points. All of the points came from three-point range, and Battier also contributed two steals, two blocks and five rebounds, which was very good, and this was Battier's first game with the Cavaliers.
Landry, who started the game, had six rebounds out of 10 and only played 20 minutes, and Asik proved himself again with a double-double of 11 rebounds.
Big Z only played fifteen minutes in this game, and only got four points and three rebounds.
On the Rockets' side, Yao Ming got 20 points and 10 rebounds, but he still failed to bring a victory to the team.
Another core player, Maddy scored a game-high 33-pointer, and Maddie did not play in the entire fourth quarter, which perfectly interpreted his offensive firepower, and scored a high score of 33 points in the third quarter.
Xiaobu, who came off the bench, was eye-catching, with eleven points and five assists, and the playing time was about twenty-three points.
The game was finally over, and the fans who supported the Rockets were undoubtedly a little disappointed, while those who supported the Cavaliers were very happy, both happy and sad.
After the game, James, Maddie and Yao Ming were interviewed separately, and our protagonist didn't know where to run for a long time, Huang Jun didn't like the media, or Huang Jun didn't like to be exposed, but Huang Jun also knew that he couldn't hide anyway.
Can you hide for a lifetime now? However, Huang Jun thinks that he can hide a few times.
"Hello, I'm a reporter from CCTV, how did you play tonight, why did you win so many Rockets" Did you think of it before the game, or was it unexpected?" The CCTV reporter caught James and immediately asked questions, and he was really afraid that James would escape.
"I can only say that we played a great game, the opponent also played a great game, the reason why we were able to win was because of a wave in the fourth quarter, the previous three quarters were indistinguishable, and the reason why this game was the main point guard Huang played a lot of money," James replied in one breath.
After answering, James answered one more question and left the scene, he was really afraid that if he continued to stay, this group of reporters would not be able to play, so it would be better to leave early.
Yao Ming was interviewed.
"Yao Ming, what do you think of the opposing point guard Huang Jun?" the unknown reporter asked.
"He's playing great, you've all seen it, and I'm very happy that we have such a point guard in China, and I wish him a good success in the NBA," Yao replied.
"How does it feel to compete with him?" The reporter then asked.
"It's a very habitual feeling, this is China, if it's in the United States, I think I'll think it's even more strange, after all, it's very difficult to see players from your own country in the NBA, and it's a player with such a high status," Yao Ming replied again, Yao was obviously very patient.
After that, Yao Ming answered a few questions from reporters before leaving.
Maddie, on the other hand, surrounded a group of reporters.
One of the reporters asked, "Maddie, you got the highest score in the game in this game, what do you think about your score?" ”
"Score? We lost this game, no matter how high the score is, I'd rather use so many of my points to exchange for a win, the score is not important to me now, it's all won when the opportunity is good, let it be" Maddie said a little incoherently.
"What do you think of Yao Ming?" Another reporter asked.
"Yao Ming is a very, very good person, he is very friendly, he is very humble, in short, he is a very good person," Maddie said.
"What are your goals for this year?" Another reporter asked.
Maddie didn't think about it, and replied directly, "It's very simple, our goal this year is the championship, which is my goal since I joined the Rockets, and it has never changed."
After that, Maddie answered a few questions and walked away, apparently finished.
