The local sports newspaper in Cleveland, in order to escort the "little emperor" LeBron James, created the focus of the 03 golden generation of the Heat VS Cavaliers,

In particular, the triple-doubles James has obtained so far in his career are highlighted as a way to promote James's comprehensive statistics.

In just over two seasons in the league, James has already recorded 13 triple-doubles, more than any of the big four.

You must know that Kobe Bryant has only gotten 8 triple-doubles in 9 seasons in the league, while Maddy has only had 3 triple-doubles in 8 seasons, and Iverson has only 1 triple-double in his career so far.

Wade, Lin Fei, Anthony, Bosh and others, who are in the same class as James, have never won a triple-double.

In this comparison, James's comprehensiveness and dominance on the court are more highlighted, coupled with the obvious improvement in the Cavaliers' record in the new season, James has the possibility of impacting the regular season MVP.

At seven o'clock in the evening, the audience at the Quickloan Center Arena was already full.

James' rise has led to a significant increase in the Cavaliers' home ticket sales, and Cleveland's small-ball market is also vibrant.

Especially tonight's defending champion came to challenge, coupled with the huge popularity of Lin Fei and Wade, so the tickets for this game have been sold out early.

More than 19,700 seats in the Quickloan Center Arena were full.

Back in March of this year, the Cavaliers changed owners, and the famous businessman Daniel Gilbert became the big boss of the Cavaliers.

In his first offseason, Gilbert overhauled the team's management and coaching staff, and the results are now evident, and the Cavaliers are stronger for the new season.

At the same time, Gilbert also spent more than 27 million dollars to renovate and renovate the Quickloan Arena, which will increase the number of seats to more than 20,500 and the number of private rooms to more than 80.

Feeling the jubilation and hustle and bustle of the Quick Loan Center Arena at the scene, Lin Fei also felt surprised.

You must know that Lin Fei visited the Quick Loan Center Arena twice with the Heat last season, but the stadium at that time was far from the passionate home atmosphere it has now.

It seems that after the new owner, the Cavaliers have indeed ushered in a new life, coupled with James' rapid growth, the Cavaliers this season may really become a dark horse in the East.

At the whistle of referee Crawford, the starters of both teams quickly took to the pitch.

The starting five of the Miami Heat are:

Point Guard (PG): Dwayne Wade,

Scoring Guard (SG): Lin Fei,

Small Forward (SF): Sean Battier,

Power Forward (PF): Udonis Haslem.

Center (C): Roughly.

During O'Neal's off-season, Da Van Gundy also made a general mention of the position of the starting center, and the overall effect was not bad, but the characteristics of strong offense and weak defense always existed.

The starting five of the Cleveland Cavaliers are:

Point Guard (PG): Eric Snow,

Shooting Guard (SG): Larry Hughes,

Small Forward (SF): LeBron James,

Power Forward (PF): Drew Gooden,

Center (C): Nas Ilgoskas.

The Cavaliers' roster has indeed improved significantly this season, with the 30-year-old Big Z still at his peak, and Gooden on the power forward is also performing steadily and growing rapidly.

The Cavaliers equip James with a very suitable interior line, with Big Z and Gooden both having the ability to open up space and shoot in the middle of the space, and they are also very active in grabbing rebounds.

Cavaliers head coach Mike Brown is still very good at the team's defensive adjustment, and the Cavaliers' defensive efficiency in the new season is among the top 10 in the league.

It's just that there are still certain problems with the combination of Eric Snow and Larry Hughes on the back line, Hughes has a very good defense, and he was selected as the best defensive team with Lin Fei last season.

But he started the season with the Cavaliers very averagely, and there have been injuries that have affected his performance.

Last season, Larry Hughes was a veritable second-in-command for the Washington Wizards, second only to "The General" Arenas, averaging nearly 18 shots per game and scoring 22 points, better than Antoine Jamison.

But after coming to the Cavaliers this season, in order to give James more balls, Larry Hughes basically switched to playing without the ball, and the team positioned him as 3D, which made him a little uncomfortable, and his state was always up and down.

"Smack!"

In the opening game, Da Z took the lead in jumping the ball on the general head, and the 2.21-meter-tall white Litao Bowl center is also the tallest presence in the active NBA except for Da Yao.

He also played for the Portland Trail Blazers this season, and his official height is also 2.21 meters, but he is infinitely close to being cut by the Trail Blazers.

The home court resounded with jubilant shouts, and James came to the front court and quickly asked point guard Eric Snow for the ball at the top of the arc.

At this time, Big Z and Drew Gooden both involved the defense outside the penalty area, and James faced Sean Battier, who was defending himself,

Directly changed direction to accelerate the breakthrough, pushed Battier into the penalty area, and jumped up to be a tomahawk slash.

"Boom!"

James delivered an explosive dunk at the beginning, and the Cavaliers fans in the Quickloan Center arena cheered and applauded.

"LeBron's body is really too strong, without Shaquille's Heat penalty area defense, it seems that LeBron is going to score high points again tonight!"

"A high score is nothing, I have a hunch that LeBron will have another triple-double tonight!"

"Battier can't guard LeBron at all, and it's the same for Dwayne and Linshang, it's not a heavyweight at all!"

On the court, James, who broke through the dunk in the first attack at the beginning, was also quite emotionally excited, beating his chest and roaring at Lin Fei and Wade, and took a bully step in the defense.

Lin Fei felt James' breakthrough just now at close range, and was also shocked by the opponent's strong physique, which was completely like a tank with a full-speed impact.

Battier is already average in terms of small forward strength, but compared to James, he is not in the same order of magnitude at all.

James' extreme bench press power is over 180 kilograms, which is almost unattainable by most centers.

With the terrifying power of a center and the flexible speed of a defender, it is obviously not a one-man thing to try to defend against James.

The ball is converted and the Heat attack.

Larry Hughes chased after Lin Fei, and James was always ready to steal the bag.

Wade came to the front court with the ball, and Eric Snow, who was on defense, easily changed direction to break through the opponent with an obvious opposition advantage, and the half-volley basket in the middle distance stopped suddenly, and the basketball went into the net.

"Huh!"

Now, with his knee fully recovered, Wade's physical talents are on full display without the slightest impact of surgery.

At the same time, after offseason training, Wade also strengthened his personal shooting ability, and the mid-distance jumper crosshair after the breakthrough was significantly improved.

In the point guard position, Wade's talent is indeed quite rich, and the league has hardly been able to defend his point guard alone.

The Cavaliers attacked, James broke through with the ball again, and after entering the penalty area, he faced Haslem's supplementary defense, and the basketball stumbled into the net again.

"Huh!"

James scored 4 points in a row, and in front of the two geniuses of the 03 golden generation, he showed his champion style as a little emperor in a high-profile manner.

Lin Fei was naturally not to be outdone, came to the offensive end to receive Wade's pass, and took advantage of the gap between the bag and the clip to catch up, and stepped back to shoot directly at Larry Hughes.

"Huh!"

The basketball hollowed into the net, and it was another ultra-long three-point shot more than 8 meters away from the basket.

But here in Lin Fei, this distance is completely routine.

"Larry, how do you feel like your defensive level has dropped? Still not getting serious? ”

Lin Fei laughed and teased Larry Hughes after scoring the goal, compared with last season's Eastern Conference semifinals, Larry Hughes's defensive enthusiasm is indeed not so high.

I feel that he should not get the tactical position he deserves next to the Cavaliers and James, and he is somewhat dissatisfied with his strict positioning as a 3D player.

In the next round of the Cavaliers' offense, Lin Fei decisively blocked James' breakthrough, the Heat's restricted area defense was strengthened, and James burst out to Larry Hughes on the outside.

Larry Hughes made an open three-pointer and missed the basketball, which was clearly not in his offensive rhythm.

However, the long rebound was picked up by Drew Gooden, who made a mid-range jumper.

"Huh!"

Without O'Neal, the Heat's restricted area defense and rebounding protection are indeed weaknesses, and they can only rely more on Wade and Lin Fei's efficient scoring on the outside to make up for it.

Turning back to the Heat's offense,

Wade broke through to the basket in a lost step, but James, who was on the defensive back, was very timely, and with this excellent physical talent, he jumped up, threw Wade to the basket of the basket, and slapped it the tempered rebound.

"Smack!"

This is a wonderful pegboard hat, and the scene resounded with cheers.

James, who started tonight, made obvious efforts at both ends of the offensive and defensive ends, and in the face of Wade and Lin Fei, who won the championship together last season, James's desire to perform is quite strong.

This is obviously to prove to himself under the noses of the home Cavaliers fans that he will always be the champion and representative star of the 03 generation.

The basketball that was slapped by James was taken first by the fast-eyed man who was roughly in the high position.

"Whoosh!"

Roughly on the court, Lin Fei's position will always be the first to be noticed, so this time after getting the ball, a quick return pass, the ball was quickly given to Lin Fei on the left side.

Lin Fei did not hesitate after receiving the general pass, and Larry Hughes, who flew up step by step, decisively started to shoot again.

"Huh!"

The second.

Heat (8) :(6) Cavaliers.

came up and scored two three-pointers in a row, and Larry Hughes, who was on the opposite side, couldn't prevent it at all, and Mike Brown, the new coach of the Cavaliers standing on the sidelines, quickly called a long timeout.

"Lin and Dwayne are the focus of our defense, one inside and one outside, we must circulate quickly, once Lin receives the ball on the outside and decisively wraps up, there must be no luck, otherwise his three-point shot will be more and more accurate!"

Mike Brown is the head coach of the Cavaliers this season after Gilbert took over.

Mike Brown, 35, is also the first NBA head coach and the second-youngest head coach in the league.

Mike Brown has been an assistant coach for previous seasons, and he won a championship with the Spurs with Bobo's coaching staff in '03.

Defensively, Mike Brown still has some ability, and he also tries to get along with the players as much as possible.

After the timeout, the Cavaliers attacked, James continued to burst points, and the big Z jumper in the high post was missed, but the offensive rebound was taken by James, who forced a layup and caused a foul on Haslem.

"Beep!"

James, who went to the free throw line, made both free throws, and his form tonight was indeed quite hot.

"Huh!"

"Huh!"

In less than 3 minutes of the game, James had 6 points and 1 rebound.

The ball was converted, and Lin Fei, who broke through Wade's outside line, replaced James this time to defend closely, and Larry Hughes also decisively followed up to force it.

In the face of James and Larry Hughes's bag and press, Lin Fei, who has the passing attribute of 60 passing lines, decisively found Battier who was empty on the right side of the outside line this time, and the ball was quickly distributed.

Although Lin Fei's pass was not very accurate, Sean Battier in the big open space still easily received the ball and decisively shot three points outside.

"Huh!"

The basketball bumped into the inside of the basket and fell in, which was also a rare assist sent by Lin Fei after the bag.

Although it was just an ordinary assist, Lin Fei was quite excited, waving his fists excitedly.

"Lin Fei gave this point well, so that Battier in the big vacancy got a very good vacant three-point opportunity!"

"He has been caught so many times before, but Lin Fei has never been able to pass the ball well, and more often chooses to make strong shots, it seems that he is also intentionally changing!"

In the five sets of live broadcast rooms on the side of the Celestial Empire, Director Zhang and host Yu Jia were all dazzled, and they praised Lin Fei's valuable assist this time.

"If Lin Fei can gradually practice a good assist ability, then his technical structure will be more perfect, and he will no longer be unscrupulously encircled by defenders in the game!"

Back on the defensive end, this time Lin Fei replaced Battier to defend James who held the ball at the top of the arc, and the Cavaliers fans at the scene also became excited.

"Lin switched to LeBron? Can he? ”

"Although Lin's outside defense is already the top in the league and has shown first-class defensive standards against the four quarterbacks, LeBron's physical strength is not comparable to the four quarterbacks!"

"As long as LeBron gives Lin a physical confrontation, his defense is absolutely deformed!"

In the face of James's breakthrough with the ball, Lin Fei was very smart not to make a hard bar with the opponent, but adjusted the defensive pace, retreated and retreated, and always blocked James's breakthrough line.

Lin Fei's defensive style made James feel like he was punching cotton.

When James burst into the middle of the penalty area, Lin Fei suddenly tightened his legs and clinged to him, interfering with the opponent's shot.

James struggled to push Lin Fei away, raised his knees, and flew sideways into the air to deliver a small throw.

Although Lin Fei and James obviously suffered a loss in the physical confrontation, his defensive awareness was still top-notch, coupled with his increasingly sophisticated jumping ability,

Therefore, the ball was still waved decisively with a long arm in the confrontation, giving James some interference in throwing.

"Bang dang!"

Lin Fei's defense really made James' shot very uncomfortable, the basketball hit the iron, and the rebound was decisively grabbed by Wade, who rushed up.

"Whoosh!"

After taking the ball and landing on the ground, Wade directly dribbled the ball quickly, and the Heat counterattacked quickly this time.

Lin Fei went to the right to attract James's pursuit, and Wade was a direct kill in the middle, and an in+out change of direction completely shook off the chasing Eric Snow.

Larry Hughes made up for it quickly, interfering with Wade's Lost Step.

The knight's retreat this time has to be said to be very timely and orderly.

Wade quickly stopped and pressed down the rhythm during the breakthrough on the left side, and at this time, Lin Fei, who was entangled with James on the right side, suddenly ran back into the empty cut penalty area.

"Whoosh!"

James didn't expect Lin Fei to cut the basket empty, so the chase was half a beat slower.

"Whoosh!"

Wade quickly gave the ball over, and Lin Fei, who was cutting the basket, faked a real pass after receiving the ball, feeling James who swooped up behind him and was ready to block at any time.

A small horizontal pass under the basket, Wade, who shook off Larry Hughes and inserted it diagonally, accurately received Lin Fei's return pass, and jumped up with a one-arm dunk.

"Boom!"

The fast attack cooperation from Lin Fei and Wade, and at the same time, Lin Fei also delivered his second assist tonight.

"OMG, incredible Lin, tonight he actually gave two assists in less than half a quarter of the opening game, especially the cooperation with Wade under the basket just now, quite tacit!"

"Haha, the Cavaliers fans are sarcastic, Lin can't get more than 3 assists in a game, it looks like they're going to be slapped in the face tonight!"

On a subsequent offense by the Heat,

Lin Fei held the ball on the outside of the top of the arc, and played a tacit blocking and dismantling cooperation with the above.

The players of the Cavaliers obviously haven't reacted yet, and they are still following the old routine, and after blocking and dismantling, the two decisively came up to wrap up Lin Fei, who was holding the ball.

"Whoosh!"

Lin Fei's split ball after being caught this time was also not difficult, and he calmly shot after retreating to the outside of the three-point line on the right side.

"Huh!"

Three-pointers hit steadily.

Seeing that Lin Fei had already delivered three assists in a row, Cavaliers coach Mike Brown, who was standing on the sidelines, couldn't help frowning.

When did Lin Fei suddenly practice his passing ability?

Stan Van Gundy and assistant coach Spoelstra on the Heat side were naturally overjoyed, and Lin Fei's passing level seemed to have really improved significantly.

In the shocked gaze of Big Van Gundy, it was as if he foresaw a future passing master of the league.
