Chapter 247 Take away in one wave

"The Cavaliers are going to lose!"

As the league's new super giant with the strongest momentum, James' domestic fans are also experiencing a continuous blowout. It may be because of his violent style of play, his talent for flying and escaping, his all-around statistics, or it may be because of his sophistication.

Face?

In short, James, nicknamed "Little Emperor", also has a lot of fans in domestic forums, and just like many people used to use other stars to suppress Dayao, now there are also many star fans who like to use their favorite stars.

Come to suppress Li Chengming.

Among them, James has the most, and the reason is very simple. Since Li Chengming entered the league, the most conflicting and topical thing is his "bad relationship" with James.

The media also likes to exaggerate it like this, making many fans think that they really have some deep hatred.

Then the fans on both sides were led into a rhythm and began to start arguing with each other. Naturally, the conflict deepened.

There are often scoldings during the regular season, not to mention that in the playoffs, they have to play a whole series. Even before the game starts, the topic of comparison between the two sides fills the entire forum.

And when it finally happened, it was even more of a gluttonous feast. On the other side, not many people even paid attention to the game between the Lakers and the Jazz.

Although Komei is also very big, the topic of their game is obviously not as high as here. At most, the "remnants" of Houston are counting on the Lakers to help them revenge. After all, there are still many people who have feelings for Kobe because of the relationship between Kobe and Tracy McGrady.

The secret of good feelings.

Sometimes likes and dislikes are so strange, they can change at any time depending on the timing.

Many people also stand on their own side, and their butt determines their head.

Just like the Cavaliers will cite a few unfavorable calls as biased whistles, Magic fans will also laugh at the opponent because they can't afford to lose.

Of course, opening champagne at halftime is not allowed, so many people are still not so sure. They are discussing how to maintain their advantage and how to make a comeback. As for the real "big battle", it will have to wait until the game is officially over.

During the halftime break, Li Chengming saw Howard watching the news on his mobile phone. He curled his lips and said, "If you are so impatient, why don't you wait until the game is over to watch it?"

Howard scratched his head in frustration and said: "I was almost annoyed to death in the first half, they were targeting me!"

Li Chengming nodded understandingly. He knew that Happy Beast actually had something on his mind at this time, but it wasn't about this game. This concern came from the ownership of MVP.

In fact, he already knew in his heart that he was out of luck. The media's direction was very clear. During the period near the end of the regular season, they were all talking about Kobe, which already shows the problem.

Moreover, the league is actually more willing to praise Kobe. Not to mention that Kobe was one of the successors to Jordan that they promoted, and he was also the one who had the most hope to succeed Jordan. If it were not for the scandal in 2003, and the failure of 2003-04

He should have won an MVP long ago if he could complete the failed team season of defending the title.

It's normal for Howard to want to win MVP, who wouldn't?

And when there is such an opportunity, it is human nature to worry about gains and losses, even affecting the state of the game.

As for his complaints, they are just excuses. After all, this is not the first time he has been targeted like this, and he has been targeted in the regular season too. Not to mention that he should have been used to it, at least he shouldn't have complained like this.

Li Chengming couldn't say anything and could only pat him on the shoulder to comfort him.

Van Gundy didn't say anything at midfield. He believed that by this time, everyone knew what to do next.

Although their performance after this break was not very good, the winning temperament they brought to them in the first round is still there, especially in the series with the Hawks, where they came back from behind in the second half of the two games.

This allowed them not to panic at all, as long as they continued to do their best in the second half.

The opponent's performance also gave them confidence. The defense is in place, and the offense will naturally come back. Compared with defense, they are more confident in their offense that leads the league in the regular season. After all, they have what the outside world calls a "four-star" team.

.

At the end of the halftime break, everyone regained their spirits and came back on the field. Van Gundy made a small change at this time, allowing Li Chengming to come on directly in the second half.

Li Chengming was stunned for a moment, and then he came on stage naturally. Everyone was also not surprised.

Li Chengming only played 10 minutes in the first half. In fact, everyone knew that Van Gundy was definitely planning to save it for more use in the second half.

But this obviously exceeded the expectations of many people, including the Cavaliers. Even James glanced at Li Chengming a few more times when he came on the court. It was obviously strange - were the Magic planning to win once and for all in the third quarter, or were they going to do it again?

Are there any tactical changes?

Compared to Mike Brown, who has always been flexible in his routines, Van Gundy is highly regarded by the outside world, especially in the regular season this season. He has quickly dispelled the previous view that he was a puppet of Riley in the Heat. The best

The coach is the best recognition for him.

Although many of his attempts and training were based on the regular season record, this record was also achieved by his leadership, and many tactical attempts later, including the previous first round, showed results, which is very rare.

.

At this time, apart from Nelson, the Magic's other four forwards on the field are all over 2 meters tall. Although there is a 2.2 meter opposite player, the other four positions are all at a disadvantage in terms of height.

Because Li Chengming was playing in a very strange position at this time. It looked more like the second position. In fact, he was a forward-guard swing like Jordan and Kobe. He also used the triangle offense as a blueprint. Li Chengming took the ball in the low post and played in singles.

Screen, cut, stand in the sweet spot, get under the basket, each perform their duties.

As for the defensive end, the Magic defended a zone defense, with Turkoglu staring at James and Howard guarding the penalty area, while Li Chengming mainly watched the 45-degree wing on the strong side, so that even if he had no time to cover the defense, his teammates would

Can help him fill the gap.

On the offensive end, relying on Li Chengming's intimidation and pulling from the outside, the opponent was exhausted, double-teaming Li Chengming, following the outside, and missing simple ball opportunities inside.

In fact, this is the practice of making up for the missing wall in the east and making up for the west. As long as the other party is patient, they can usually find opportunities.

Defense is definitely impossible to guard against, but what about offense?

The biggest weakness of the Magic's lineup is its slow movement speed. Li Chengming, Lewis, and Turkoglu are not good at speed, especially when it comes to defending pick-and-rolls. They will definitely not be able to squeeze through, so they can only switch defenses.

But the Cavaliers' offense was initiated by James. If there was no breakthrough, he wanted to pick and roll and switch to smaller defense. As a result, Turkoglu turned to Lewis from outside, and then from Lewis to Li Chengming. No one was him.

Can be easily beaten.

Let West play two, and Big Z play two more, the efficiency is not high, and Howard blocks people, Li Chengming or Turkoglu recovers to protect the rebound, and there is a pass to the frontcourt for a fast break.

Opportunity, Nelson succeeded in two consecutive fast break 1-on-0 layups, which was easy and enjoyable.

This hit James' face as black as coal, and his eyes seemed to be brewing death rays.

There is nothing he can do. He needs to stand up. If he stands up, he can only break through. In the first half, he missed all three attempts from the outside. Now he basically doesn't dare to shoot anymore.

Being behind by more than ten points, if you miss a three-pointer, you will be immediately beaten back, which is really hard to withstand.

However, when breaking through, you have to face layers of defense. After taking out one layer, there is still another layer. When you get to the basket, there is no room left. If the pass cannot attract help defense, it will only cause mistakes and be counterattacked.

It had only been four minutes of play, and the score difference was already reaching twenty points. Mike Brown could only call for another timeout.

But after scratching my head and scratching my head for a long time, there is really nothing I can do.

The Magic are at home, with the right time and place, and they are not easy to play against.

Moreover, the Magic are suppressing them like blood, and they are like a father beating a son. From the regular season to now, they really have nothing to do.

Director Zhang laughed and said: "The Cavaliers have too many problems now. In the third quarter, there are problems with offense and defense. The Magic team played much smoother, and one midfielder has regained his form."

Yoga said: "Coach Van Gundy's move to directly bring up Li Chengming is really good. Defensively, they won't suffer against the Cavaliers. They also have a size advantage on the offensive end. The Cavaliers need to change their lineup."
