Chapter 64 Victory over the Raptors

The Raptors' offense is excellent, and the Cavaliers' offense is not too panicky.

Among them, Lin Bai fired frequently on the right side, and it rained three points, carrying the banner of the Cavaliers' offense.

First, the Raptors were determined to compete with the Cavaliers in shooting, shrinking the defensive line, and letting the Cavaliers shoot from the outside. Morris Peterson, who mainly defended Lin Bai, retreated to the three-point line, preventing penetration and not preventing shots.

Lin Bai made an empty cut to the basket, and suddenly made a reverse run, avoiding reality and then evading, retreated beyond the three-point line, two steps away, received a pass from James, and directly shot a super long-range three-pointer.

林白跳在空中，眼帘一系列的数字划过，78…81…77…82…85…76…

He pulled out the basketball with his fingertips, and when the number 82 jumped out, the basketball flew to the basket and made a precise hit.

Immediately afterwards, in the 7th minute of the third quarter, Lin Bai slipped to the bottom line and pulled to a high position.Taking advantage of the opportunity for James to force Carter in the middle and move laterally to the right.Lin Bai ran from the low post to the high post along the three-point line, and switched positions with James. When James was double-teamed by Carter and Peterson, Lin Bai was witty and came behind James.

At 75 degrees to the right, James forced Carter to no avail and was double-teamed. He turned around and passed behind.

眼前出现一系列的数字，71…54…65…72…59…

Lin Bai shoots as he likes, and when choosing numbers, he is more experienced. When the number 72 jumps out, he immediately dials the basketball to the basket.

The power, angle, and rhythm of the shot were all in one go, and with a swish, he hit another three-pointer through the heart.

Subsequently, the Raptors did not dare to let Lin Bai shoot, and strengthened their defense against Lin Bai. Peterson closely guarded Lin Bai.

Lin Bai felt convulsed, and the Cavaliers players saw it. James deliberately defended against the breakthrough from the right to attract defensive attention.

Boozer pulled up to a high position to cover for Lin Bai to get rid of. Lin Bai ran to the top arc of the three-point line. James understood it and passed the ball hand-to-hand. At the same time, he blocked Peterson who had come out to chase and defend.

Lin Bai easily caught the ball, dribbled a step, stopped suddenly, turned around and shot a three-pointer, a series of numbers appeared in front of his eyes,
80…81…86…87…83……

Lin Bai was lucky, like a basketball god possessed, when the number 86 jumped out, he directly threw the basketball.

With a clear sound,
The basketball drew a beautiful arc in mid-air, and fell into the basket with precision. The pure white net flower was splashed with water.

Lin Bai's three-pointer opened, and the Raptors' zone defense existed in name only, which became a joke.

As soon as Lin Bai received the ball, he was a threat and could easily tear through the Raptors' defense.He became the axis of the Cavaliers' pass, connecting assists Boozer to hit the basket and dunk;
It can also be hoisted to the inside on the left, and Ilgauskas singles Bosh. The offense on the inside and outside is activated, and the offensive momentum is like a rainbow. Even though the Raptors are very mobile, they still cannot stop the Cavaliers from scoring.

After the third quarter, the two sides were evenly divided, and neither could stand the other.

Fighting again in the fourth quarter, Carter dived for the whole quarter, and at the beginning, he made a sudden effort, shot from inside and outside, scoring consecutive points.

Marshall was on the right side, caught and shot, and also hit a three-pointer.

Fortunately, the Cavaliers' firepower is not weak, because on the left side, Ilgauskas and Kapono teamed up inside and outside to pin Bosh and Jaylen Rose to death on the left side.

Lin Bai and Boozer on the right side showed their power again and again, which also made Peterson and Marshall unable to move on the right side.

With the offense on both sides holding down the Raptors' defense, James suddenly broke out in the middle.

Vince Carter's defensive strength has always been regarded as a weakness.

In all fairness, Carter's body and defensive skills are top-notch, but his defensive awareness and mental strength have both hindered him, making him unable to become a defensive strength worthy of his reputation.

James held the ball in the middle, played vigorously, and scored consecutive points.

James led the team alone. At its peak, it was not the so-called pick-and-roll, but "Attack depends on James, defense depends on bread." '

Although there is a bit of ridicule in this sentence, it vividly depicts the power of James' breakthrough points and his unstable shooting characteristics.

To put it bluntly, it is to let James attack alone, and the others will open up space and let James single-handedly.

In order to open up the space, James needs to be equipped with teammates with shooting ability, especially the three-point shooting ability, in order to be able to take advantage of James' own system.

Now the current situation of the Cavaliers has such an effect. The right and left sides make the Raptors' defense dare not let go, and James can fully display his offensive talents.

In the 6th minute of the fourth quarter, James hit the ball with the ball and faced Carter, who was facing the main defense.

James lowered his center of gravity, crossed the dribble, shifted Carter's defensive center of gravity, suddenly accelerated to lean against Carter, changed to the right and broke through, and his strong body directly knocked Carter away.

Give the fans outside the court an illusion of domineering, like a crab's pace.

That's right, this is James' signature elusive technique-crab step breakthrough elusive.

James broke through Carter's defense, ignored Bosh's supplementary defense, jumped up with the ball, his head was almost flat, and ruled the world like an emperor. He dunked with one hand and smashed the basketball into the basket.

89 to 88! !
Relying on James' explosion, the Cavaliers tenaciously overtook the score with a one-handed tomahawk dunk.

The Raptors' offense, Jaylen Rose dribbled the ball to the frontcourt, passed the ball to Carter, and opened up space to the left corner.

Carter holds the ball in the middle, Bosh pulls to a high position, cooperates with Carter in a pick-and-roll, cuts to the basket, catches Carter's pass, dribbles, and jumps up, trying to dunk the basketball in with one hand.

Unexpectedly, James jumped up from one side, and with a snap, the basketball was directly nailed to the hoop. This is a wonderful pegboard cap! !
James took off the rebound with both hands, and before he had time to celebrate, he immediately counterattacked quickly, distributed the ball to Lin Bai next to him, and made a two-man cooperation, dodging Carter's defense, and James himself quickly ran back to the frontcourt,
Lin Bai didn't dribble, and hit the ground directly, sending the basketball to the middle circle, James' way forward.

With a swipe of his hand, James rushed up, three steps in parallel, and drove straight into the penalty area.

He pulled the ball up, carried Peterson in three strides, and dunked the basketball into the basket.

91 to 88! !
Landing, James clenched his fists and raised his arms, celebrating passionately and domineeringly.

James' strong offense and defense, both ends of the line, stimulated the visual nerves of the fans. The audience outside the court applauded together, and the applause fell like rain. The roof of the pavilion.

In the commentary seat, Barkley opened his mouth dumbfounded and exclaimed: "James is too domineering and aggressive in offense and defense this time, just give the No. 4 pick Bosh a big hat! I want to tell him why he can When the No. [-] pick, but he Bosh can not be.

In addition to the strong defense, James is also aggressive in offense. He is unstoppable when he rushes up, and it is useless to block. He will knock everything in front of him, and then put the basketball into the basket, just like entering and leaving his own yard. ! "

Kenny Smith nodded, and analyzed: "Bosh and James have different styles, and they played their own style. Their talents are outstanding, and they were fully reflected in this game.

James has both offensive and defensive ends, stunning eyes, and there are more than 4 minutes in the game. How will the Raptors counterattack and how will Carter respond?Jaylen Rose dribbled the ball to the frontcourt, and Carter was on the center line. Carter faced James and directly chose to break through, but was double-teamed. How would Carter choose..."

On the court, Carter held the ball in the middle, but was double-teamed by the zone defense. Carter jumped up and distributed the ball to the outside.

Maurice Peterson, 75 corners on the right side, received the ball from the frame, without the slightest hesitation, jumped up and opened his hand for a three-pointer.

swish
The basketball fell into the basket with precision and hit a three-pointer.

91 to 91! !
Morris Peterson withstood the pressure and helped the Raptors hit a key three-pointer to tie the score again.

In the next round, the two sides strengthened their defense, did not let the opponent's attack succeed, each could not score, no nostalgia, quickly turned around and returned to defense.

Offensive and defensive transition, the Cavaliers had the ball, James dribbled the ball to the frontcourt, did not rush to attack, and slowly observed the team's movement.

On the right side, Boozer and Lin Bai looked at each other. Boozer made a sudden move and stepped forward to pester Peterson.

Lin Bai took the opportunity to run back, allowing Marshall to miss him.

Outside the 65-degree three-point line on the right, Lin Bai moved and the ball arrived. After receiving the pass from James, Lin Bai jumped up without any hesitation, his body blossomed in the air, and a series of numbers appeared in his eyes.

76…85…71…78…83……

Lin Bai's rhythm was very stretched. When the number 85 jumped out, he directly pulled the basketball from his fingertips.

From running positions, catching the ball, jumping, and shooting, there is no trace of redundancy in the whole movement, and the rhythm is as smooth as silk.

The basketball draws a beautiful arc in the air,

With a clear sound,
The basketball fell into the rim with precision, and the white net flowers splashed.

A three-pointer went through the heart, 94 to 91! !
The Cavaliers turned back in an instant and kept the score advantage in their hands. There were still 3 minutes before the end of the game.

The situation on the court is very unfavorable for the lagging Raptors.

The Raptors attacked, Carter broke through with the ball in the middle, stopped and swayed suddenly, and wanted to pick James for a foul. Unexpectedly, James didn't take this trick, but just stretched out his hands to disturb him.

Carter's offensive rhythm was disrupted, he made a forced shot, and the basketball bounced out of the basket.

Under the basket, Bosh and Ilgauskas jumped up at the same time and competed for the rebound. The two basketballs provoked and then fought again. Ilgauskas wittily leaned on Bosh. Bosh only had basketball in his eyes. , when jumping up, offset the basketball.

Boozer came out from the side, grabbed the rebound, and passed the ball to James to organize. James did not play a quick counterattack, but slowed down and played positional warfare to ensure the success rate of the attack.

James slowly, dribbled the ball across the half court, carefully looked for offensive opportunities in the frontcourt, lobbed to Ilgauskas, and singled Bosh in the low post.

Ilgauskas turned over and shot a jumper after receiving the ball. With a bang, the basketball missed.

Boozer on the right caught the thin Marshall, took off the offensive rebound, and immediately lifted the ball to shake Marshall up.

Boozer turned around for luck, jumped up, and dunked the basketball into the basket with both hands.

Slam the basket and score a two-pointer, 96 to 91! !
Boozer grabbed key rebounds in a row, and made a second attack, pouring the basketball into the basket, helping the Cavaliers get a 5-point lead.

In this game, the time to score was only 2 minutes. The Raptors players were a little impatient. Jaylen Rose and Bosh picked and rolled, forced a step, swayed the angle, and received a mid-range two-pointer, but still failed to score.

Near the end of the game, the Raptors' physical strength declined, and the Cavaliers strengthened their defense. The Raptors' shooting percentage plummeted.

Under the basket, Ilgauskas and Boozer stuck tightly, and Big Z took off the backcourt rebound.

Next, under the control of James, the Cavaliers slowly consumed the Raptors and consumed the time of the game.

The Raptors can only foul and send James to the free throw line for free throws.

James withstood the pressure and made two free throws without giving the Raptors a chance.

The Raptors were only able to make a quick three-pointer. Marshall was outside the three-point line on the right, received a breakthrough from Carter, and made a quick three-pointer.

With a bang, it was another strike.

The Raptors missed a three-point shot, and their morale dropped to freezing point. They could only accept the final failure.

At the end of the full game, the Cleveland Cavaliers beat the Toronto Raptors 106 to 100 at home.
