PS: Look at the exclusive story behind "Fierce Beast Striker", listen to your more suggestions for the novel, pay attention to the starting point Chinese network public account (WeChat add friends - add public account - enter ddxiaoshuo), quietly tell me!
Henson, who grabbed the rebound in the front court, also unceremoniously faced Tristan Thompson, and suddenly came to a baseline breakthrough.
Henson was not very neat with the ball before, and breaking through with the ball like this was something that the Cavaliers couldn't think of even if they wanted to break their heads, so Tristan Thompson was given an easy step by Henson.
Henson faced the basket after passing Tristan Thompson, and when he got up, it was a two-handed dunk, what kind of perverted bounce did Henson, he jumped up and dunked, and the visual impact was almost stunning.
With the sound of a dunk "clang", the quick loan center is silent, today Henson did dominate the court, grabbed the rebound in the front court three times in a row, and completed the scoring task, this kind of player who can not rely on teammates to help score more than 6 points in a row, are players who can change the trajectory of some games, in today's game, Henson's super level of play actually achieved this point.
This was a surprise for the Pelicans, but a fatal blow for the Cavaliers.
The two teams had already reached a period of relative relaxation, and the Cavaliers would not have had no chance if they had passed this period of safety, but now Henson suddenly jumped out and gave the Cavaliers a suffocation, three strikes and two blows, stretching the difference between the two teams to about 20 points, which was too big a blow for the Cavaliers.
The hole of falling behind by more than a dozen points in the first half can barely be filled, but you are more than 20 points behind, how do you need to fill such a hole? How big of a blow to morale is this? The most important thing is that David Blatter has realized that James has lost confidence in the team this season, he is not so high-spirited, in this situation, so far behind, without the full support of the team's superstars, David Blatter almost felt hopeless.
So David Blatter thinks. Now we must stop the Pelicans' madness, and we must complete the counterattack on the Pelicans as soon as possible, even if it is to shorten the point difference.
So David Blatter at this time, he did not hesitate to call a timeout immediately, and after calling a timeout, David Blatter immediately rearranged the defensive task, especially in the part of grabbing rebounds in the backcourt, David Blatter asked the team to sacrifice the fast break opportunity It doesn't matter, when grabbing rebounds, they must rush up, the whole team grabs rebounds together, and the players responsible for defending Henson and Kelly must be stuck to death. In the back, his teammates can naturally snatch the rebounds in the backcourt, and on the offensive end, David Blatter encouraged Irving and Matthew Dellavedova to dare to shoot, at this time the Cavaliers are too far behind, and the so-called debts are not pressing, and at this time, the Cavaliers don't need to scruple too much, and they will shoot crazy if they can shoot crazy.
David Blatter made a series of arrangements, and he was going to fight back, but it was when David Blatter set up. Van Gundy on the Pelicans' side also has his own judgment on the situation.
At this point, Van Gundy called a timeout and immediately said to his players:
"We really have to resist it below, and at this time the knights must make a final counterattack, this is definitely their last counterattack. If we resist and give them a more ferocious counterattack, then the victory will be ours, after the timeout. I ask you to defend desperately, leave no room for anything, and be sure to defend it. Henson, you'd better grab another frontcourt rebound, and if you grab this frontcourt rebound, I'll give you an offensive strategy every game in the future. ”
Van Gundy even used the hand of coercion and temptation, and sure enough, when he heard that he grabbed this frontcourt rebound The coach gave him an offensive tactic, Henson's eyes lit up all of a sudden, an offensive tactic, an offensive tactic designed for himself, this is a stage, a stage that belongs to himself, thinking of these Henson's heart is hot,
Van Gundy used such a trick to provoke the attack, and he naturally knew that this was what Henson wanted, so at this time he used the most fragrant bait to tempt Henson.
Sure enough, when the knight came back, the knight had more confidence, more flexible running, and more rigorous play.
James controls the ball in the high position, and then patiently conducts, the outside players run flexibly, the Cavaliers James blocks and breaks through, and the rest of the players pull away from the tactics, the players standing on the outside are not actually standing like stakes, but need to keep running according to the situation on the court, and then look for opportunities to break through or shoot quickly.
Although this tactic is simple, it has relatively high requirements for the strong points of breakthrough, and it also has high requirements for the identification and selection of role players.
The Cavaliers didn't play very well because the role players were not very involved and couldn't create a second chance.
So David Blatter once asked Owen and Shambaught to take the initiative to attack, and later replaced Owen to increase the second chance.
Now it's a critical time, the Cavaliers finally found a rhythm, James held the ball to break through the ball, passed quickly from the outside, Irving took the ball to break through a step, and then passed out James took the ball and immediately divided the ball to Matthew Dellavedova at 45 degrees.
Matthew Dellavedova lived up to James' expectations by throwing in a three-pointer with his hand raised.
The Cavaliers finally improved on the offensive end, but when it was the Pelicans' turn to advance quickly, the Cavaliers were still very nervous.
The Cavaliers play a tactic with very prominent strong points, and when it comes to the Pelicans, the Pelicans' offensive tactics are not to highlight the strong points first, and hide Li Feng's strong points behind a strong interior advantage.
Van Gundy is a player who has gone through the era of the four centers, he knows very well that the development of basketball is getting faster and faster, and it is more and more inclined to offense, and Van Gundy also knows that the era of his own era of scoring on the inside has passed, and the new era of combining the inside and outside is more about attacking the place where it must be defended, and the scoring is still three points on the outside, and the era of scoring by two points and two points has passed, and a team cannot have good results if it does not have a three-point shot.
Therefore, the Pelicans' current tactics are based on the whole, and the heavy punches that are hit first are inside attacks, and then the ones who kill people later are sharp three-point shots and outside attacks.
The two teams have different styles of play, so the Pelicans come here. Henson heard at this time that if he could grab the frontcourt rebound, he could get the tactics, which was extremely active, running continuously and quickly, and quickly cutting towards the Cavaliers' basket.
Tristan Thompson has great defensive skills, but his physical qualities can't compare to Henson, and Henson runs back and forth a few steps to throw Tristan Thompson away.
Li Feng took the ball and saw Henson on the outside, shook off Tristan Thompson and cut to the inside, and he immediately threw the basketball to Henson, who was cutting in the air.
Henson was in a state of full blood and anger at this time, and received the basketball directly in the sky. Splitting Huashan is an earth-shattering buckle.
Seeing Henson flying so high, everyone in the audience was stunned, and then they heard "Bang Dong!" With a bang, the fans in the stadium were stunned again.
It turned out that Henson was Henson in the end, ordinary people still couldn't imagine what he could do, so many opportunities, Henson flew so high, and then Henson actually dunked the basketball away.
Kelly, who was on the outside, was almost stunned, and subconsciously received a basketball dunked by Henson behind him.
Henson actually dunked off. It was a boring mistake that he actually dunked, but it was Henson's style to imagine.
After a brief suffocation, there was a burst of laughter on the pitch. The Cavaliers' players also reacted, and hurriedly turned around to break the basketball in Kelly's hand, Kelly was very witty to raise the basketball to avoid the steal, and then handed the basketball to Li Feng on the side.
Li Feng was also speechless to Henson when he got the ball at this time. Fang Cai was a 100-99 ball, but Henson just dunked it.
Li Feng may have also been affected by some of Henson's neuroticism, and he used Kelly's cover to rush up and miss a long-range shot.
Seeing that the Pelicans' offense is about to fail sadly. The Cavaliers immediately shrank back and grabbed the rebounds collectively, and the Cavaliers grabbed the rebounds this time It was already the life of the whole team, but at this time, it was in the Cavaliers' bunch of people.
Kelly helped Henson get stuck in a position, and then he saw Henson's eyes flying up with blood-red eyes, and in the middle of the Cavaliers' bunch of people, he even stretched his hand higher than James, and grabbed the basketball with one hand.
Henson had a nonsensical dunk, but now he was a fierce man who grabbed his fourth frontcourt rebound in the Cavaliers.
After grabbing this frontcourt rebound, Henson immediately shouted under the basket, and pulled it up with a two-handed dunk.
At this moment, several pairs hit Henson's body together, and he didn't knock Henson down from the air, just watched Henson hold it up and hang it in the air for a while, and then he opened his arm and smashed a dunk into the opponent's basket.
"Bang dang!"
Henson not only grabbed the fourth frontcourt rebound this time, but also completed a violent dunk and caused a foul on the Cavaliers.
At the same time, the fans, commentators, and players in the stadium stopped laughing, and no one could laugh, once the beast Henson was awake, even if it was only for a short time, it would be impossible to laugh at all.
And David Blatter saw that he had grabbed the rebounds with the whole team, and actually let the Pelicans grab the rebounds in the frontcourt, and suddenly the fat head coach was also angry and scolded on the court.
The Cavaliers let the Pelicans grab 4 frontcourt rebounds in a row, and they exploded under the basket in a row. Chrysanthemum, let the Pelicans score so lightly, can David Blatter not be angry? At this time, the situation of the Cavaliers was also so bad that it could not be worse, at this time the Cavaliers were dropped by the Pelicans by more than 20 points, and at the same time, the basket kept being robbed of rebounds in the front court, and they could not score continuously on the offensive end, so on, the future of the Cavaliers was completely dark, and the Cavaliers even needed a miracle to save the team at this time.
After Henson's free throws, they rushed to the Pelicans' halfcourt to shoot a three-point shot, only to be seized by the Pelicans and hit another wave of counterattacks.
This time, as the Pelicans' offense succeeded, Cleveland's quick loan center was silent, David Blatter also reluctantly took off his glasses, and James shook his head silently.
The absolute powerhouse in the East, a strong contender for the championship, was actually taken away by the Pelicans in the first half.
This result not only makes people think, is it as strong as the pelican? Or is the knight really weak?
The Pelicans played half a game and won, and once the game was over, the whole league went crazy.
You must know that the Cavaliers are the seeded team in the East, and it is almost the only obstacle for the Celtics to advance, such a team. did his homework before the game, and David Blatter also came according to the standards of the playoffs in terms of on-the-spot command, but the final result was to let the Pelicans be wiped out.
This result makes the Cavaliers fans, James fans simply unacceptable, you know, they are still waiting for James to win the championship, but now the team has lost like this, how do you make these people face this fact.
The Cavaliers are a signature team in the league to buy tickets, and now they have collapsed so lightly, which has caused countless turmoil.
Many media and commentators are trying their best to analyze the truth of this matter. In fact, what fans want to know is whether the Cavaliers are so weak? Or how strong the pelican really is.
At this time, the playoffs are not far away, and it is necessary to have a similar understanding of each team.
Because sometimes the results of the regular season are different from the real strength.
All the media have given a similar evaluation to the Pelicans, believing that the Pelicans have the strength to enter the club of the top teams in the West this year, the Pelicans are now young, powerful, and have unlimited future potential, the only flaw is that they are too young and inexperienced.
Lack of experience, there are bound to be some problems when you encounter the big scene of the playoffs.
As for the Cavaliers, the perception is more complicated. Optimistic media and experts believe that this is nothing more than a mistake by the Cavaliers, a sad mistake, and the Cavaliers still have the strength. Most of the media that say this are Cleveland natives, or some emotional experts.
However, in the NBA, experts unanimously believe that this season's Cavaliers are not as good as they were before James left, and even the overall state is not as good as last year's era without James. Thinking that the defense that the Cavaliers rely on for a living has declined sharply this season, and at the same time, James's stats are also declining, and Irving's actual role for the team is not as wonderful as advertised.
The Pelicans defeated the Cavaliers. It has created a crisis of confidence for the Cavaliers, and at such a critical moment, the team's management and David Blatter have tried to clarify the negative impact, but it is intriguing that James has said nothing at such moments.
The Pelicans won the game and walked away, beating the Cavaliers and the Pelicans extended their winning streak and challenged the Portland Trail Blazers back-to-back.
Several other favourites also played tonight, so the only way to broadcast this game today was local Portland.
?????? Before the start of the game, the local commentator introduced the two teams to the audience, and then the starting line-ups of both teams were lined.
?????? On the Pelicans' side, starting point guard Knight, scoring guard Rotten, small forward Li Feng, power forward Al Jefferson, and center Henson.
The excellent performance in the last game gave Van Gundy the confidence to send Henson to start Paul Gasol for the playoffs.
???? The lineup on the Trail Blazers' side is point guard Damian Lillard, shooting guard Wesley Matthews, small forward Nicolas Batum, power forward LaMarcus Aldridge, and center Robin Lopez.
???? Looking at the lineup, there is no indication that Portland are plagued by injuries, and they have a good player in every position.
?????? In this case, it is no wonder that Van Gundy is so solemnly demanding that his team take the game seriously.
?????? At the beginning of the game, Henson and Robin Lopez competed, and it was no surprise that Henson clicked on the basketball first.
??? The Pelicans, who had a long winning streak and beat the Cavaliers in the last game.
At this time, the pelican is already a little old in terms of mentality, and it looks down instead of looking up, and the young people have a lot less sharpness!
????? So when Knight came over and casually wanted to pass the ball to Li Feng, as soon as he shot the ball, Lillard came sideways and stole the basketball at once.
The Pelicans are still a little tsundere in the face of Portland, and let people steal a steal while they are unprepared.
????? Li Feng is still in a state of chaos here, and he didn't react much, Lillard has already passed the French Maddie Batum on the sideline, and Batum took the ball and flew up for a dunk.
????? The opening gave the Pelican a loud slap in the face, and Van Gundy immediately stood up to remind his disciples when he saw that his disciples were so careless.
????? Focus, concentration, ?
????? In Van Gundy's back-roar, Knight finally came over with the ball steadily. Then as soon as he saw that Al Jefferson on the inside had lost his position, he immediately gave Al Jefferson a pass to the inside.
????? Al Jefferson got the basketball inside and was about to start playing singles, when Aldridge was very serious about blocking behind Al Jefferson.
????? Al-Jefferson's interior graceful singles are certainly a must-have in the league, but Aldridge has also grown into a very reliable power forward in the past two seasons.
???? The offensive end has no dead corners within the three-point line, and the defense is also in the middle of the table whether it is single defense or assistance defense, naturally Aldridge does not have Garnett's ruthlessness and Howard's talent on the defensive end, but his height and physique are there, and they are not light and can be stepped over.
????? Besides, Al Jefferson is not fierce, which is naturally in terms of character. Aljefferson doesn't have the fierceness of a power forward with wide eyes and a natural cannibalism.
?????? Got the ball and saw Aldridge, and Al Jefferson also turned gracefully, feints gracefully, and then made a fluttering small throw with the delicate footsteps.
?????? Swish!
????? Don't look at Al Jefferson these two times It doesn't look like he has any strength, but his feet are good and his hands are good, although Aldridge desperately defends outside. But he still couldn't stop Al Jefferson.
????? Al Jefferson made a move to help the team save face, and just as the Pelicans were running back, the Trail Blazers suddenly hit a quick serve.
????? Lillard came up with the ball and went crazy towards the Pelicans' half.
???? this state. The Pelicans were unprepared because the Trail Blazers have always been a slow-paced team, and Stotts' tactical system is as immutable as a 10,000-year-old turtle.
???? But today they suddenly went berserk. rushed to a fast attack all of a sudden, and the Pelicans hurriedly organized themselves to defend after a moment of scramble.
????? Lillard's absolute speed isn't that fast. But the sense of rhythm is super good, and this kind of player is much more intimidating than a purely fast player, Lillard comes up with a change of direction, then turns his back, shakes from side to side, and passes Knight in one fell swoop.
????? Got past Knight, Lillard, and still made a throw to score two points on the Pelicans' head.
????? The Trail Blazers opened with such a quick roar and played a fast break, which is very similar to their style, Van Gundy on the side is shaking his head, it is impossible to say that Lillard suddenly went crazy, Lillard is a player who is calm to the bone, this kind of player will not play like this without the arrangement of the coach.
?????? Just when Van Gundy's head was messing up and asking what McMillan was thinking.
????? The Pelicans also turned around and played a fast break, the Pelicans were originally a team that admired fast play, once there was a chance to play fast, it was like smelling a bloody shark, and immediately rushed back.
?????? The Trail Blazers' fast break is led by Lillard, and the Pelicans' fast break is led by Li Feng.
?????? Li Feng took the ball in the backcourt and began to rush towards the half court of the Trailblazers, the main rhythm leader of fast attack and defense is still a small player, after all, a big man can't take the ball to get through the court quickly, Li Feng took the ball at this time and shook it twice, which also shook Matthews.
?????? Then with a wave of his big hand, he threw the ball into the hands of Henson, who ran to the front court, although Henson is a big man, but he is the same as Howard, his legs are fast, and he is the same as a small man many times under the fast break, Henson takes the ball and dribbles a step, and then he is about to go to the basket, the referee's whistle sounds, and it turns out that this kid has walked.
????? Henson is really walking.
????? Looking at Henson's innocent expression, Li Feng wanted to laugh, this brother is good anywhere, but he has to be brain-dead every once in a while.
?????? The Pelicans themselves lost an offensive opportunity and formed a dead ball, in which the Portland Trail Blazers magically made such an early substitution, using Mackleum to trade Matthews.
