Super Lord of the Rings

Chapter 980 [How happy and relaxed]

After a few rounds, the Cavaliers began to double-team Wang Jun, otherwise a turnaround jumper would drive Oladipo crazy.

James didn't dare to defend Wang Jun because he knew Wang Jun's way of playing too well. As long as he goes up, Wang Jun will definitely find a cover, or make moves outside the three-point line, looking for opportunities to take action, so that his advantage cannot be used. Even if he fails to make the shot, he will not be able to retreat to the penalty area in time to grab rebounds and launch a counterattack with one pass. .

Wang Jun is the kind of person who will fight no matter how uncomfortable his opponent is. This is what Abby taught him back then, and he has integrated it into the basketball court.

James double-teamed, Wang Jun passed the ball to Aminu in the right corner, and the latter made an open jumper.

Aminu's shooting posture is like carrying a rocket launcher, which is quite strange. The three-point point is mainly 50-70 degrees on the right side and the right corner. One side is enough, and teammates will take care of it on the left side. Patterson and Carroll attract defense on the weak side and mainly shoot three-pointers.

In the second half of the first quarter, the Kings played a run-and-gun game. Wang Jun protected backcourt rebounds, or received passes from teammates, quickly advanced to the frontcourt, attracted the defense and let his teammates take action, completing the game in five seconds.

206CM's forward swingman Covington came on as a guest center, and Wade came on to replace Curry and take the No. 2 position.

Now Wade can still play fast breaks and rely on technology to break through opponents. Covington's characteristics are suitable for running and gunning. As long as the person in front of him is shorter than him, he dares to make a pull-up after receiving the ball, and he is more accurate than Patterson.

Wang Jun made 6 of 7 shots in a single quarter and scored 14 points, 5 rebounds, 5 assists and 1 steal. He completely dominated the game and led the Kings to a 35-21 lead.

Yu Jia lamented: "Kidd once said that Wang Jun, who has better physical fitness and more accurate shooting, can become an excellent point guard. In the past three seasons, it is really not a lie."

Zhang Lili exposed Zhan Hei's remarks: "Fortunately, James returned to the Cavaliers, otherwise the fans would not be able to see the strongest Wang Jun. He must give a lot of ball rights. James is really not as good as himself with the ball. Anyway, he has no worries about lack of physical strength." .”

When fans hear this, there must be another group that hates James.

Wang Jun rested, and Curry, Wade, Carter, Covington, and Whiteside took the field in the second quarter.

Wang Jun is not the only one who has strong physical strength. The playing time is within 30 minutes, and Wade can also ensure a good state. Curry rested for 5 minutes in the first quarter, so there is no problem in playing. The Kings do not need Ismail.

Kidd has been looking for better rotations and physical distribution, so he doesn't let Brooks enter the big list.

The Cavaliers sent Mo Williams, Beal, James Jones, Okafor, and Frye.

At this time, the ESPN commentator stopped talking about basketball and talked about James.

Not long ago, James became the second player in history after "Big O" to rank among the top 25 in the league in terms of total points and assists.

However, James does not like to be compared with ancient mythical beasts. He said: "Why compare? Isn't it good to quietly praise the greatness of every great player? Isn't it appropriate to compare and quarrel with each other? ?”

As a result, ESPN's famous James Skip Bayless couldn't sit still and took advantage of the opportunity to go crazy. "At first you were the one who said you wanted to compare to Jordan, but then you found out that you couldn't even compare to Kobe. Now you won't let anyone compare you, you weakling, you hypocrite!"

There are many people who say James is hypocritical, and his hypocritical remarks are countless.

"I won't wear a headband anymore because I want to be like my teammates."

“I’m wearing headbands again because it’s time to be myself.”

"I don't need to dive. I play an aggressive game. I don't even know how to dive."

After receiving the league's diving ticket, it turned into "You know, flopping is actually a part of basketball."

"I moved just to go home, that's all. This is where my career started, so I wanted to come back."

"Oladipo, Bill, and Bosh will be my good partners. This is an important reason for me to go home."

And the most famous thing is that he often says he wants to participate in the slam dunk contest, but then lets the fans go. There are too many examples of this...

On the court, the Kings had the upper hand when playing off the bench. Carter made 3 of 3 shots from Jones, including a three-pointer, and scored 7 points in a row. I was going crazy as a teenager.

Carter broke out, forcing James to rest for 3 minutes before returning to the court and replacing Jones.

Wang Jun immediately came out and replaced Wade. The "Flash" played 8 minutes to "recharge" and can play a greater role when he came back.

Whiteside started to play a pick-and-roll with Wang Jun. Covington screened Curry from the side. Wang Jun met Frye in a misplaced position, teaching him how to behave minute by minute, and scored two consecutive breakthrough dunks.

The Cavaliers hurriedly replaced Thompson, who had rested for 6 minutes. As a result, there was no one inside who could shoot.

Curry caught the ball and hit two three-pointers in a row. Okafor did not change defense in time enough, and the problem of inexperience appeared. On the strong side, Bill couldn't guard Wang Jun, and James could only fill in, but he was too busy.

When Carter received another pass from Wang Jun and hit a three-pointer from the corner, the point difference widened to 25 points. The half was not over, and the winner was almost decided.

Wang Jun didn't take many shots in this quarter, making 3 of 4 shots and 2 of 2 free throws. He scored a double-double with 22 points, 7 rebounds and 10 assists in the half. On the defensive end, he also actively defended James, making it difficult for him to break through the frame and could only shoot outside jumpers.

When he was with the Kings, James didn't bother to be a fixed-point shooter. He always felt that waiting for three-pointers from the outside was a waste of talent. Now, he was beginning to miss it.

How happy and relaxed I was at that time.

What Wang Jun was thinking about during halftime was how happy and relaxed he is now.

Compared with James, who doesn't shoot many three-pointers and distributes the ball, he finds it more enjoyable to partner with 3D players like Aminu and Carroll.

Even if he shoots all the balls in a game, his teammates will not be dissatisfied because they are unable to attack with the ball.

In the second half, Wang Jun continued to play, partnering with Wade, Carroll, Aminu, and Stoudemire.

Stoudemire didn't play a minute in the first half. He was full of energy and quickly showed his power. Not only did he receive two mid-range shots from Wang Jun after the pick-and-roll, but he also made a one-handed dunk on an air cut.

What Kidd arranged was the same pick-and-roll that the Suns used. Wang Jun and Nash were faster than each other, and the inside was more difficult to defend. As soon as the defender chases after him, a cross to the center is an opportunity.

Stoudemire's mid-range shooting is very stable. Even in the Knicks, he once made 10 of 10 shots in a single game. The opponent at that time was the Kings. This is why the manager was willing to take him.

The defender no longer dared to pursue Wang Jun with all his strength, so he started a one-on-one challenge again, using trick-like fake moves and terrifying explosive power. He quickly committed two fouls on Okafor and sent him to rest.

With James at the 4th position and a veteran like Jefferson at the small forward position, the offensive threat is greatly reduced. Mo Williams has a good offense, but he can't play at the moment, and he suffers a lot against Wade.

Tyronn Lue has made adjustments many times. No matter how he makes substitutions, Kidd has a way to make adjustments for him.

When the opponent has many pitchers, the Kings play small ball, and the pitchers immediately start a zone defense. James breaks in and is double-teamed by at least two people. If he breaks through head-on, he will be surrounded from all sides.

The Kings led by 42 points entering the final quarter, and Wang Jun took a rest. His data was fixed at 31 points, 11 rebounds, 14 assists and 2 steals, playing only 33 minutes in total.

Tyronn Lue only needs to consider whether to let James stay on the court and continue playing.

Continuing to play, the five-man offensive lineup of Ismail, Wilcox, Carter, West, and Stoudemire of the Kings is not weak. If they cannot catch up with the score difference, James will be embarrassed.

Without playing, James made 6 of 17 shots, 1 of 4 three-pointers, and 5 of 8 free throws. He only had 18 points, 5 rebounds, and 4 assists. The statistics were too ugly.

Tyronn Lue no longer thinks about winning the championship.

He felt that even if famous coaches from all over the league were brought together to study tactics, the Cavaliers would not be able to beat the Kings. The opponent's stars are too strong and cannot be solved through tactics.

Tyronn Lue finally decided to let James rest. At the end of the game, 134-86, the Kings beat by 48 points and got off to a good start.
