157 I love these little brothers!
In the post-match press conference, O'Neill was particularly excited: "We are just a natural team, we don't need to integrate at all, we are the best. ”
That night, the Heat flew to Cleveland to challenge the Cavaliers back-to-back.
In the offseason, the Cavaliers lost Boozer, but recruited Drew Gooden, Boozer's classmate, who was also a very good No. 4 spot.
Lucios Harris was also poached.
Iverson's old partner Eric Snow was also signed.
The second-round pick selected by the Magic was then traded, Brazilian Anderson Vallejo.
The Cavaliers are more or less reinforced.
Cleveland was fighting, and James, a landowner, naturally wanted to treat him to dinner.
When waiting for Taco, Li Lei and Wade were swiping their phones together.
James craned his neck to look at it, his face full of surprise: "You guys are willing to use traffic?" Very expensive! ”
Li Lei and Wade were stunned.
"No, brother, you're the richest of the three of us!"
Although traffic is expensive in this era, it is not so unaffordable for an NBA champion show.
What's more, James also signed a super big contract with Nike and has long been a billionaire.
James shook his head: "If you have money, you have to save it!" ”
Then, James grabbed Wade: "Quick, open the hot spot!" Let me connect! ”
Wade: "......"
He was stunned again.
Your money is money, you have to save money, my money is not money?
Wade looked at Li Lei.
Li Lei let go of his hands, and the mobile phone fell on the table.
Then, Li Lei quickly put the mobile phone back in his pocket.
"Don't look at me, my phone is broken, and I can't turn on the hotspot!"
Wade: "......"
James: "......"
For a long time, Wade turned on the hot spot like a resentful woman: "You two are really a natural pair!" ”
……
That night, the game began.
Heat starters:
O'Neal, Haslem, Lei, Wade, Damon.
Cavaliers starters:
Center: Big Z (Ilgoskas).
Power forward: Gooden.
Shooting guard: Harris.
Playmakers: McGinnis, James.
Didi!
The game begins.
In the jump ball session, Big Z narrowly beat O'Neal and dialed the ball back to the Cavaliers halfcourt.
James took the ball and advanced directly and quickly, wanting to hit the Heat by surprise.
But Li Lei pounced on James as soon as possible and entangled James.
James could only choose to push slowly.
When he arrived at the frontcourt, James looked at Li Lei in front of him and called for a block without hesitation.
Gooden brought it up.
He's got a thick body and a pretty good pick-and-roll quality.
Li Lei was blocked.
Haslem saw this scene and decisively switched to James.
James broke through and passed to Gooden, who remained in the middle distance.
Gooden relied on his height advantage and threw when he pulled up.
Li Lei pounced and went directly to the body to fight.
The strong Gooden didn't even get off completely, and after taking off, he didn't have enough strength in his hands and shot a lot shorter.
The ball went straight into O'Neal's arms.
Gooden, who landed on the ground, looked sluggish.
"The Chinese players on the other side, are they so tough?"
James reminded loudly: "Drew, don't underestimate the enemy, he is on the defensive!" ”
Gooden nodded, indicating that he understood.
James's face sank.
It can be seen with the naked eye that Li Lei's defense has become stronger again.
With the increase in height and weight, Li Lei can even defend the opponent's No. 4 player to a certain extent.
The Heat play defensive counter-attack.
Wade held the ball, attracted the attention of James and McGinnis in the frontcourt, and then Li Lei, who didn't look at the pass and assisted, followed by Li Lei, made a relay in the air.
Bang!
2:0。
James even found that Li Lei's dunk was more exciting than last season.
"Can a person really progress so fast?"
James couldn't figure it out.
The game continues.
The Cavaliers reorganized the offense.
James continued to block with Gooden and then passed to Gooden.
Gooden holds the ball and faces Li Lei.
This time, Gooden did not attack rashly.
It's about stabilizing and making the most of this good opportunity to fight small.
Subsequently, Gooden opted for a backshot.
He was originally a big man with well-rounded skills, and with a strong body, his offensive ability was very good.
Li Lei used his two arms to resist Gu Deng, but he didn't dare to exert his strength.
Small defense is big, and desperately top is a big taboo.
Otherwise, the big man will turn around, and the little man will be gone.
With Gooden's hard chisel, Li Lei could only fight and retreat.
Relying on his strong body, Gooden still broke into the vicinity of the basket, turned around, and made a direct jump shot.
However, at the moment of Gooden's jumper, he saw a huge figure.
Cover the sky!
"Big Shark" O'Neill!
Syllable!
O'Neal slapped Gooden's shooting fan flying.
"Congratulations, you've entered the territory of the Great Shark!"
O'Neill said arrogantly.
Only then did Gooden remember that O'Neill couldn't get out, and the cat had been under the basket.
The Heat fought back again, and Wade stood up to McGinnis's defense and forced it in.
4:0。
The Cavaliers went on offense.
James didn't summon Gooden again this time.
In the first 2 shots of 0, Gooden played the Heat team really badly.
James looked at Li Lei, who took a big step towards him, and then aimed at the basket, and finally chose to shoot himself.
Pointers.
Bang dang!
The basketball smashed into the front of the hoop, and sure enough, it didn't.
Li Lei was relieved.
But at this moment, the basketball that bounced high fell for the second time and fell straight into the hoop.
Swish!
This Nima ...... Balloons!
4:3。
James himself smiled, good luck today.
The Heat attack.
O'Neal just got the ball in the low post, Big Z carried it hard, and Gooden also pounced.
The Cavaliers didn't hesitate to use the pack-and-pinch tactic.
For O'Neill, it's also the norm.
In the entire NBA, no one can defend O'Neal alone, not even the 33-year-old O'Neal.
O'Neill didn't force a bite either, passing to Haslem on the other side.
James pounced, frighteningly fast.
Haslem had no chance, so he could only give it to Li Lei again.
As soon as the ball reached Li Lei's hands, James also pounced.
Man is faster than a ball?
Of course it can't be, but it's enough to say how hard James played tonight.
It's a one-stop-two.
James, who has just entered the league, is also very active defensively, and the effect is also very good.
Li Lei rolled his eyes: This guy shouldn't take revenge on himself because he didn't open a hot spot for him and let him rub traffic.
Thinking so in his heart, Li Lei didn't stop in his hands, and quickly distributed the ball to Damon Jones, who was ambushing the bottom corner.
Damon Jones adjusts and makes an easy shot.
Swish!
7:3。
This guy who calls Li Lei the second scorer in Miami and calls himself the first scorer shoots really well with three-point shots.
Offensive and defensive transitions.
Knights attack.
Li Lei looked at James outside the three-point line and still took a big step.
It is impossible to change the established tactics just because of a single goal.
What's more, James just got the ball out of pure luck.
James took aim at the basket and continued to shoot, which was much more decisive than the previous round.
The basketball crosses a parabola and pierces the heart with one arrow.
Swish!
7:6。
James hit two three-pointers in a row and directly chased the score.
He's eating dumplings tonight!
The Quickloan Arena was agitated.
James is in this state today, and he has to play.
James himself was excited, raising his fists in celebration.
The Heat attack.
It's still taking advantage of O'Neal's strong containment to create opportunities for his teammates.
Damon hit his second three-pointer in a row.
Swish!
10:6。
"Oh! Yes! ”
Damon jumped straight up in excitement, jumping very high and waving his fists in the air.
Judging from the scene, Damon Jones is racing three-pointers against LeBron James.
If you only look at the scores, you still think that Damon is the core of the Heat.
Li Lei crossed his waist and smiled bitterly: The position of Miami's top scorer is really not guaranteed!
The Cavaliers' offensive round.
Li Lei didn't let James shoot again this time.
It is worth mentioning that this offseason, the league has established a check rule.
Defenders can no longer defend with their hands with impunity.
The reason for the incident was that the Pistons defeated the Lakers in Super F4 with defense.
They made the game very ugly.
And not only the Pistons, but also the Spurs, the Nets, the Pacers...... There is a tendency to play like this.
The league is even starting to spread the phrase: defense wins championships!
That's right, defense wins championships, but it also lowers ratings.
This made David Stern very unhappy.
That's where the check rule comes in.
Specifically, in the area above the free throw line and its extension, the defender cannot make any hand touch or interference with the offensive player, otherwise it will be considered a foul.
It's a boon for the outside players.
Especially for players like Wade and James, who focus on breakthroughs, spring is coming.
But relatively speaking, for an outside gate like Li Lei, it is more difficult to defend.
James holds the ball, starts suddenly, and the first step is like thunder.
Li Lei was engrossed, but he still lost half of his position.
The first step was to take advantage, and James continued to accelerate, wanting to get rid of Li Lei.
But Li Lei directly stuck to it, pressed against James's side with his chest, pushed him out, and did his best to delay James's footsteps and prevent him from fully getting up.
Insert a sentence, it's really good, it's worth pretending, after all, you can cache and read aloud offline!
The number one secret to defending James: let go of the shots and not let them go through.
Second tip: Don't let James get up to speed.
Once James rushes up, he is a heavy tank, and the impact is terrible.
What Li Lei did was to minimize James' impact.
James didn't raise the speed to the maximum when he hit the front of the basket, and it felt like he was always being dragged back by Li Lei.
When he got to the basket, a big hand appeared in James's eyes and pressed the jumping James with the ball on the floor.
"Big Shark" O'Neill!
Terrifying!
James couldn't resist it at all and lay straight on the floor.
Li Lei took the opportunity to grab the basketball and made a long pass to Wade.
Wade rode to the front, and his hands were heavily clasped.
Bang!
12:6。
After that, the Cavaliers were no longer able to resist.
James was manipulated plainly.
With Li Lei outside, O'Neal inside, plus Wade and Haslem who are constantly helping to defend, James played very uncomfortable.
And the two three-pointers James hit in the opening game became meaningless under the Heat's powerful offense.
At half-time,.
The Heat are already leading by 14 points.
At the beginning of the second half, the Heat played a wave of 7:0 offensive waves, and the difference instantly reached 21 points.
At this point, the Cavaliers had no intention of resisting.
The end of the show,.
The Heat beat the Cavaliers.
Even if it is back-to-back, it is still easy to win, and the main force is still clocking out of work in three quarters.
O'Neal had 18 points, 9 rebounds and 2 blocks.
Wade had 15 points, 6 rebounds and 3 assists.
Li Lei had 13 points, 4 rebounds, 2 assists, 2 steals and 1 block.
Damon had 12 points and four assists.
Haslem had 10 points and seven rebounds.
Eddie Jones, who came off the bench, also had 16 points, 4 rebounds and 3 assists.
Wang Zhizhi had 6 points and 2 rebounds.
On the Cavaliers' side, James had 12 points, 7 rebounds and 8 assists.
McGinnis had 15 points and five assists.
Big Z had 16 points, 6 rebounds and 4 fouls.
Gooden had 12 points, eight rebounds and five fouls.
Vallejo came off the bench with 6 points, 7 rebounds and 5 fouls.
In the post-match press conference, O'Neal smiled even more.
"The Heat aren't the best team I've ever been to, but they're definitely my favorite team, and I love these little guys!"
In front of a group of reporters, O'Neill directly kissed Li Lei and Wade, who attended the press conference together, and it was still a big mouthful.
