   Chapter 671 671. The Cavaliers' Alternative Defense

  Damon Jones hit a three-pointer, James Xiti assisted 1!

   As expected of a man who claims to be the best pitcher in the world, he dares to shoot, and dares to score!

  Liu Xiu feels that her strength on the west coast still needs to be improved.

Damon Jones became a super fish next to Wade and O'Neal last season, averaging 2.7 three-pointers per game with a shooting rate of 43.2%. At the end of the regular season last season, he ranked third in the list of three-pointers per game , He is fourth on the list of hit rate, claiming to be the highest three-pointer in the world.

  The Cavaliers spent 4 years and 16 million dollars to dig him back. He was ridiculed by O'Neal as "the most stingy NBA player in history", and he will have nothing to worry about in his life.

  The offense and defense transition, Liu Xiu holds the ball to attack, and the one who defends at the top arc changes from Larry Hughes to James.

  How to limit Liu Xiu's pick and roll? When Liu Xiu can break through smoothly without using the pick-and-roll, he will naturally not use the pick-and-roll to pull Gooden out.

  The last time Liu Xiu played against the Cavaliers at home, he had experienced Mike Brown's defensive tricks, and he was ready this time.

   Facing James' defense, Liu Xiu made a breakthrough with his quick stops and quick starts, and successfully broke into the inside.

  At this time, James is still in the polishing stage of personal offense and organizational offense, and there is no difference between defense and rough buddies with physical fitness.

  However, compared to the last match, James still has a better defense-after being passed, he actively chased and defended to interfere with Liu Xiu's emergency stop jumper.

Liu Xiu burst from the right side of the three-second zone to close range, and had no direct chance to assist. He passed the ball back to the outlaw madman who ran to the free throw line to meet him. The first-level defensive champion Larry Hughes did not lose There is no chance for outlaw lunatics to make a surprise move.

The extrajudicial madman made a second pass to Randolph on the left side of the three-second zone, and Gooden in the middle of the three-second zone expanded to defend in front of Randolph. Just now, Gooden cut off Liu Xiu's pass in the middle of the three-second zone Line to the left of the three-second zone.

   Randolph didn’t have much time left after receiving the ball. He chose to play face-up singles. He broke through from mid-range and passed Gooden to enter the three-second zone, but he missed a layup under the interference of Big Z’s supplementary defense!

   Kwame Brown called his teammates to retreat. Although Liu Xiu was calm and relaxed on the surface, he also became dignified in his heart.

   Just now the Cavaliers did a very good defense!

In order to prevent him from playing pick-and-rolls, the warden deliberately uses James, who is worse in defense against breakthroughs, to defend him, so that he can easily break through and will not play pick-and-rolls. This defensive strategy looks funny, but for him, direct breakthroughs Going past James is easier than playing a pick-and-roll...

   It really wasn't a bad shot, he felt that the coach on the opposite side must have considered this.

Just now the Cavaliers did a very good defense after James was passed by him, James chased and interfered with his pull-up jumper, Big Z and Gooden cut him off from the other side of the paint, 'around James was passed The defensive coordination' did a great job!

What impressed him the most was the position of Gooden just now. When he was blocked on the right side of the three-second zone, Gooden did not pinch him up, otherwise the effect of cutting off the passing line would be broken, and he would not be able to take the lead. Time to make up for Randolph.

   Definitely will be able to enter the playoffs, and even have the possibility of hitting 50 wins, and have the ability to beat any opponent. After many days of fighting again, Liu Xiu has a new evaluation of James' team.

   However, although the Trail Blazers' defense is not as good as the Spurs, Pacers, Pistons and other teams, compared with the Cavaliers, he is not at all cowardly!

   Retiring to the backcourt, Liu Xiu devoted himself to defense and defended James' breakthrough.

  James’ breakthrough this time still failed to get rid of Liu Xiu’s defense, but his breakthrough could at least push down the Blazers’ defense and free up the high position.

   Damon Jones went around to catch the ball at a high position again, and continued to catch and shoot, but this time he failed to continue to contribute assists to James, iron!

Liu Xiu turned around and blocked James when Damon Jones made a shot, and the 'rock-solid' trigger was triggered. After the block confrontation, his take-off was almost unaffected, and he jumped high to get ahead of Randolph who blocked Gooden. Grab the defensive rebound.

   Fight back!

  After being robbed of the board by his teammates, Randolph quickly turned around and sprinted.

   Lost a board and got two points. Randolph quickly cut in from the wing. He received Liu Xiu's point on the right sideline of the three-second zone. Without dribbling, he directly took a step to avoid James' blocked layup!

When the Cavaliers attacked, James continued to break through and score the ball. This time it was Big Z who received the ball. It failed to form effective interference, and this time the shot went in!

It's the Trail Blazers' turn to attack, and the opponent's defensive strategy, Liu Xiu judged that the breakout game can't be played. He still wants to complete the task, but he can't play the pick-and-roll to create opportunities for Randolph to retreat and make mid-range shots or break through the basket. It's simple... After Liu Xiu pushed through the middle circle, he started to accelerate!

  In the 2007 Finals, Parker relied on this trick to slap James. James couldn't defend against Ginobili. Mike Brown could only let James go to the bottom corner to defend against Bowen...

   When Liu Xiu reached the three-point line, his speed was the fastest, at the top limit level of 94. James actively pressed up to block it, but was thrown away by Liu Xiu's change of direction.

  Liu Xiu rushed to a position one step outside the free throw line and took off suddenly, speeding up his shooting speed, avoiding the interference of James who turned around and chasing up... Unfortunately, he missed.

   The shot was a little anxious, and the strength was great!

   Gooden protects the defensive rebound.

  At this moment, Liu Xiu regretted not copying Ray Allen's 'quick shot'. With the adaptive shooting hand speed bonus, there is no need to deliberately speed up the shooting speed to affect the shooting performance.

   When the Cavaliers attacked, James didn't catch the ball and advance this time. He ran to the front court and didn't go to the top arc to ask for the ball. Instead, he waved at Larry Hughes and ran to the sideline.

Larry Hughes's dull eyes lit up in the first few rounds. He received a pass from Damon Jones in the top arc and broke through the outlaws...Liu Xiu directly emptied James, who was outside the left three-point line, and entered the pinch. Li Hughes, Larry Hughes points the ball to the wing, James catches the ball and makes a three-pointer...Miss!

  The ball bounced far away, and Gooden actively rushed to grab it, but Liu Xiu grabbed the ball one step outside the left side of the three-second zone first, and counterattacked again!

At this moment, Liu Xiu has no regrets at all for not copying Ray Allen. The counterattack speed is +3, and the speed of 97 after fully rushing, only Damon Jones, who retreated first, retreated to the basket. everyone.

  After half a step outside the free throw line, Liu Xiu ignored Damon Jones who was retreating to the basket, grabbed the ball and took two steps and took off to face Damon Jones...

   Damon Jones stood still in the reasonable collision zone, closed his eyes with his hands on the crotch... There was no collision, and there was no dunk sound, but a ball fell and hit him on the head!
