Chapter One Hundred and Twenty Eight: The Basics Of The Fast-Paced Knight

Once the Cavaliers play on the offensive end, few teams can stop it. The offensive firepower of the top two in the league is not achieved by relying on data from weak teams.

Irving's long-range shot may not feel good, but his ability at the basket is indeed as good as ever. He is not as easy as a big man as Valanciulos, who is so easy to make a layup.

After returning from the second half, the Raptors' tactics changed. Linson glanced at Patrick Patterson beside him and said with a smile: "Hey, man, I can't make three-pointers now. It's useless for you to stare at me."

Irving and James' crazy performance in the last half made the Raptors' advantage go away, and they were even 4 points behind at this time, but Casey still dared not play Lin Sen's defense. Those two three-pointers were bleeding-stop three-pointers for the Cavaliers, and they also launched a counterattack three-pointer. Two consecutive games, the Cavaliers' role players were in a bad state. The core was not able to stand up at the beginning, but Lin Sen, a rookie who scored consecutive points at such a critical moment in the playoffs. He didn't look like a rookie.

Casey was very depressed. Looking at Lin Sen who was silent on the court, this guy always secretly gave you two blows when you were not paying attention, and it still hurts. The problem is that you can't always pay attention to him. The Cavaliers have the three giants of the Cavaliers. If you focus too much attention on Lin Sen, do you still have to defend the other three people?

The Cavaliers in the second half only played the tactics they were used to. This time, they did not have Love, but went on, which was also for the overall speedup of this Cavaliers.

In order to keep up with the Cavaliers' pace, the Raptors' starting power forward Scola did not even come on the court in the regular season. They couldn't run and were originally not fast. Now that they are old, they can't catch up with the Cavaliers' pace.

The Knights' style of playing is also very simple. They are the opponent's five small players. You, the Warriors, can't I, the Knights, run?

When the Cavaliers tactic is used on the Raptors, the Raptors are also very uncomfortable. Scola's position is fighting slowly and slowly jumping Argentine Tango power forwards are not suitable for this offensive method.

Similarly, Valanciolos also felt a burning pain in his chest after running for a few more rounds. The big white bear weighed close to 120. He ran with all his strength back and forth several times and couldn't let him rest. Who could hold on?

DeRozan's breakthrough entered the inside, and now the defense of DeRozan has become James. The Cavaliers play very smoothly on the offensive end, which means one thing. James, who ranked second in the votes in 2013, has all the energy to put it all on the defensive end.

DeRozan's layup was very disturbed. The basketball bounced on the rebound for a long time and passed the defensive rebound directly to Irving. The latter's high-speed counterattack changed hands behind his back and finally took the revenge of a single arrow at the beginning.

A 45-degree angle three-point line passed the ball directly into James's hand, and the Raptors' retreat was already fast. Around James, DeRozan and Patterson had appeared in James' layup route, but this empty cut was just a cover. The basketball flew out, and Delavidova, who had already landed at another 45-degree angle, became the end point of this round. The catch, three-pointer, and hit everything seemed extremely natural.

Lin Sen, the only Cavaliers player on the court who did not touch the ball, raised his hands and cheered for this fast break three-pointer.

Rachel on the stage who saw this commentator rolled her eyes. What's wrong with you this round? Who can't run and attract the defense?

The Cavaliers fans cheered even louder, because the scene in front of them seemed very familiar. Isn’t this the regular operation of the Warriors in the Finals last year? Now, it’s not that easy for the Warriors to use five small lineups to kill themselves. At most, Lin Sen’s physical strength was in a hurry and Jefferson and others went up to the fourth position. Anyway, it’s impossible to make the Warriors play as smooth as last year’s offense.

"The Cavaliers played too fast, the Raptors' speed could not keep up. The two backcourt double guns of Kyle and Demar are not fast enough to keep up with the Cavaliers' rhythm. However, this alone is definitely not enough. Valanciulos is an excellent attacker, but he doesn't match the rhythm on the field now."

Mark Jackson shook his head. In the Warriors' last year, he had intentionally made the Warriors start to transform into a fast-paced team, so for the two teams now, he could clearly feel that the rhythm is in the hands of the Cavaliers, and James is indeed a better rhythm controller than Lowry.

"The point is that I didn't expect Lin to run like this. I want to go to Wisconsin to interview Bob's old fox. Did Lin practice track and field in college before. Nowadays, there are many outside lines that can run, and inside lines that can run are scarce resources. Lin is the foundation for the Cavaliers to lay a fast pace."

In contrast to Valanciulos, Lin Sen is not strong enough. Lin Sen focuses most of his energy on improving confrontation. After all, there is a system, and there is not so much training in such skills. However, Lin Sen is now barely reaching the average level of the league in weight, but the reason for all this is that Lin Sen's speed can still be maintained.

Rachel was very depressed, even more depressed. Lin Sen finally didn't perform much. Almost every round, Lin Sen didn't have many opportunities to touch the ball. He played half a quarter in the second half, with 2 points and 1 rebound. Is this the data very average? But these two big guys can also find an angle to brag about him. Are you sure Lin Sen came here just now to say hello to me instead of bribing these two old guys?

However, the Cavaliers' personnel adjustment soon made Rachel believe that this was indeed true. As soon as Linson got into the game, the Cavaliers immediately became a standard positional battle team.

Every attack is very serious, even fast attackers like James will not launch fast attacks at will but save more energy.

This does not mean that the Knights' positional battle is not good, or the positional battle cannot beat the Raptors. In fact, when Lin Sen went down, he fought at 18:12 in the first half of the third quarter, and the Knights who turned into positional battle in the second half of the quarter still fought at 13:8. The net victory points are almost the same, but Lin Sen can only become a weapon for the Knights to change their moves. This Raptor is completely led by the Knights in terms of rhythm. The Knights want to be fast and slow, and so on. In this way, how can the Raptors have a little chance to fight back?
