Chapter 202
James' scoring mainly relies on breakthroughs.

Even if he practiced three-pointers with Late for a summer, he was just the type who couldn't let go, but as long as he was disturbed a little, his three-point shooting percentage would drop.

James himself is also very aware of his weaknesses, so it is naturally impossible to shoot rashly when the opponent is close to the defense.

Hughes rushed over to respond immediately, and James chose to pass the ball.

But Late's defensive ability is also not weak, and Hughes didn't get a chance to break through. He beckoned and played a pick-and-roll with Wang Zhizhi who moved to the outside.

Late and Harrington quickly switched defenses. Hughes did not choose to break through and play big, but passed the ball to Wang Zhizhi.

The Chinese insider went up and down, ignoring the late closing eyes, and hit a three-pointer from the outside to help the Cavaliers equalize the score.

Kenny Smith asked Barkley with a smile: "As a former top inside player, how do you evaluate Wang Zhizhi in this year's Finals?"

Barkley thought for a while: "If it was in the past, I would definitely say that Wang is a soft guy, but putting aside those prejudices, in fact, Wang's three-pointer threat is very big, he is a very good inside player, and more importantly, he does not Lack of confrontation ability, defensive ability is not weak, it feels like a slightly weakened version of Nowitzki. To be honest, I think the inside twin towers formed by Wang and Ilgauskas are a bit wasteful In addition to his talent, he should be the team's center, which will reduce his slow movement problem."

Miller immediately interjected: "But the Cavaliers' current inside twin towers make it impossible for the Warriors to do anything, especially when Wang is playing power forward, with his superhuman height and precise outside shooting ability. , so that the Warriors often lose sight of the other, the Cavaliers obviously attach great importance to him, otherwise it would be impossible for him to complete the first offense."

Barkley's eyes widened immediately: "We all know that it is impossible to win a championship by relying solely on shooting - although this law has been cracked late, how many people in this league can reach the shooting level of late? He did perform well in this year's finals, but I think it's not that his strength has reached this point, but that he is in very good form recently. Maybe one day he will lose his accuracy on the outside. At that time, he and Yi The inside twin towers composed of Ergoskas will not play any role on the offensive end. If I were the head coach of the Cavaliers, I would choose Wang, who is in better condition, as the team's starting center to improve the team's strength. Athletic ability. Now that the Cavaliers can compete with the Warriors, in addition to their two inside players on the defensive end, the Warriors are very afraid, and more importantly, James unexpectedly limited his late performance."

Just as several TNT commentators were arguing, the Warriors' offensive rhythm suddenly accelerated.

Jackson made a quick serve from the baseline and passed the ball to Roy.

Roy, who got the ball, didn't even look at him late, and directly dribbled the ball towards the Cavaliers' half court like a whirlwind.

Hughes retreated early, and James followed not far from late, allowing Roy to easily kill the Cavaliers halftime.

At this time, the two inside big men of the Cavaliers have not yet fully positioned, and the defensive formation has not yet been arranged. Roy directly dribbled the ball and rushed to the inside of the Cavaliers.

Among all the players in the current Warriors, Roy's breakthrough ability is actually very strong. He is physically strong and has excellent ball-handling skills. The ability is much stronger than Kobe.

Kobe's three-pointer is almost deadly, especially near the 45-degree angle on the left, which is the position where Kobe's three-pointer shooting rate is the lowest.

But Roy's three-pointer is different. The left and right 45-degree angles and the right baseline are Roy's best three-pointer positions.

Closer to home, Roy, who was charging with the ball, was very fast. Hughes saw that the inside line was not in a good position, so he immediately chose to foul and pull Roy.

But Roy reacted quickly. He yelled immediately when he felt the jersey being pulled, and threw the ball to the basket casually.

"Di!"

The referee whistled and the Cavaliers made a defensive foul.

A miraculous thing happened. The ball that Roy threw casually hit the backboard and fell directly into the Nets. This is a magical two plus one.

Roy's free throw ability is very good, and despite the boos of the fans in the Quicken Loans Center Arena, he made the free throw.

The Cavaliers can only slowly press the rhythm, wait for the two big men inside to settle, and then start looking for cooperation.

James, as the undoubted core of the team, did his part to control the ball. This time Roy failed to get stuck in his position and let him complete the turn.

James stood still with the ball in one hand, waited for his teammates to complete two runs, and suddenly chose to accelerate and attack Roy.

Roy interfered for a while, but still failed to limit James' breakthrough.

But the work he should have done has been done, and the Warriors are also very clear that a player like James is not so easily restricted.

Milicic immediately chose to return to the basket, facing the impact of James' tank, and jumped up to defend without fear.

James raised his left hand to block Milicic's defense, and made a layup with his right hand, but missed!

Harrington and Jackson immediately retreated, and the three of them sandwiched James in the middle and easily grabbed the defensive rebound.

In order to open up space for James to break through, the two inside players of the Cavaliers stand far away, and it is impossible to participate in the snatching of offensive rebounds.

The Warriors who grabbed the defensive rebound immediately launched a counterattack, and Jackson made a late pass.

Late didn't have James' personal marking by his side, and immediately dribbled the ball to attack like the Cavaliers.

James and Hughes, who are the most athletic of the Cavaliers, ran back and ran desperately. Although Pavlovic, Ilgauskas and Wang Zhizhi were also trying their best to return to the defense, their speed was obviously not enough, so they could only watch The Warriors passed them by five players in an instant.

The Warriors have a five-on-two frontcourt, and they have too many choices.

James knew that it was impossible to prevent this attack, but he still chose to follow up late-he would rather let other Warriors players get two points, and he definitely didn't want to let late make a three-pointer.

He is late and not greedy for merit. His speed is incomparable to that of James - this guy's physical talent is really a beast. The height of a power forward, the top confrontation ability of a small forward, and the speed of a guard are something that ordinary people cannot envy.

He was quickly caught up by James, but several other Warriors defensive players were almost completely emptied, and he was thrown to Roy late.

This year's rookie of the year stopped directly outside the three-point line and made a three-pointer.

This ball is not Roy's best three-pointer position, don't score!
But almost all the players of the Warriors have already attacked the Cavaliers basket. Jackson, Harrington, and Milicic took off.

Hughes is really a man plus a man, and he was directly under Milicic's body to complete a supplementary dunk.

The Cavaliers didn't have the slightest temper at all. They paid the price for the slow movement speed of their inside twin towers, um, plus a Pavlovich.

The height of this lineup is amazing, except for Hughes, all of them are above 203 centimeters, but the athletic ability is a big tragedy.

Teacher Zhang Lili explained: "In the last game, the Warriors chose to fight the Cavaliers. They tried to use one-man defense to cut off the connection between James and his teammates. Unfortunately, Da Zhi's perfect performance broke the Warriors' tactical arrangement. The Warriors obviously learned the lesson of the previous game today. They picked up the rhythm. Although Ilgauskas, Da Zhi and Pavlovic are tall, they move relatively slowly. If the Warriors want to win, they must insist on playing like this. Forcibly fighting the Cavaliers, for the Warriors, they are using their own weaknesses to attack the enemy's strengths."

The Cavaliers attacked, James got the ball from the outside again, Jackson immediately gave up the defense of Pavlovich, and chose to double-team.

James passed the ball, but Pavlovich was open but did not dare to shoot. After Jackson returned to the defense, he passed the ball back to James.

Then Jackson gave up his defense again and continued to double-team James.

James made another pass, and Pavlovich waited, but still didn't dare to make a shot.

Little Zhan Zhan was almost so angry that one Buddha ascended to heaven, and the second Buddha was born.

You trash, you shoot the ball!Don't you even dare to take an open shot?

Taking a look at the players of the Warriors, none of them has weak shooting ability. James is really envious.

Wang Zhizhi saw Pavlovich's embarrassment, so he chose to move to the outside line, received the pass from Pavlovich, and forced a shot when time was running out, but the ball missed.

This ball was completely voluntary, but Wang Zhizhi's performance won the respect of James.

The Warriors, who picked up the defensive rebound, started a fast break again, and soon formed a four-on-three advantage.

James is strictly guarded against being late, just not giving him a chance to shoot.

He didn't force it when he was late, and the ball didn't even pass through his hands. Stephen Jackson made a three-pointer without any interference from the outside. The basketball smashed on the rim and still scored.

The Warriors have obviously found the rhythm of winning. If the Cavaliers don't make some changes, they may be beaten soon today.

James had already seen that something was wrong, and immediately raised his hand and called a timeout.

Barkley took this opportunity to start Barabara's analysis: "It seems that the Warriors are planning to improve their offensive rhythm today. Milicic and Harrington have excellent athletic ability. The Warriors seem to be a regular lineup. In fact, we You can think of them as a bombardment system with one big and four small. We all think that the Cavaliers' inside twin towers make the Warriors a little helpless on the offensive end. If I were the team's head coach, I would use Biedrins, who has stronger defensive ability, replaced Harrington, which may limit the Cavaliers' inside twin towers, but the old coach Nelson obviously doesn't think so, he wants to use offense to defeat the Cavaliers."
