151 The Christmas War, Lakers vs Cavaliers,
which completely annoyed the Cavaliers.
At the time of the introduction, the Cavaliers generals were all covered with frost, and the cold as frost described the Cleveland Cavaliers tonight.
The emotions are rendered in place, and the nerves are full.
On the contrary, the Lakers' side is a bit of a match.
The Lakers are still the same as before, and the starters are still the same as always, and there is no change.
The Cavaliers' starters are also the same as the old three.
Center, a big man from Europe, the second highest in the NBA after Da Yao, has a high altitude, however, this guy has delicate interior skills and a precise mid-range shooting.
This center is called Big Z, a white man from Europe, and also the Cavaliers, the second scorer on the team after James.
Power forward, actor Vallejo.
This guy is best at making offensive fouls, a typical European player, defensive awareness, rebounding awareness is super good.
Small forward James.
James doesn't need to go into details, the NBA's highly praised newcomers, although shooting, defense, these things still need to be improved, but he has been forced by Nike to a position that does not belong to him.
Actually, before the Cavaliers won 13 in a row, they could only play these few guys, but, after that, they completed a three-way trade with the Seattle SuperSonics and the Chicago Bulls, and the Cavaliers got Wallace, and voila Smith and West.
Wallace has improved the defensive hardness of the Cavaliers' interior line.
West has 3 points and defense, and is a good helper next to James, but this guy doesn't seem to be very serious.
Joe Smith is a reliable striker.
And all the Gibsons before the team.
Many people say that the knight James has no helpers, in fact, this is complete nonsense.
At the home court of the Lakers, the Cavaliers started with a direct full game intensity.
The Cavaliers have always started slowly, but they can beat the Lakers, but they are nervous, and now the Cavaliers are eager to swallow the Lakers.
At the beginning of the game, the Cavaliers and the Lakers had a matchup, and the Lakers won that time.
This time, on the Lakers' home court, once the Cavaliers lose, it will be swept by the Lakers this season, so they are extra focused and serious.
The Cavaliers started the game with James on a rampage, playing a perfect 17-5 start.
They play the Lakers' home court as if it were their home.
And they also put the Staples Center, which fell silent.
In the second half of the first quarter, Bryant stepped up.
Pull down the middle distance to close the score.
Then, he stole West's pass and directly assisted Odom to dunk it.
Immediately afterwards, taking advantage of the Cavaliers' inside big z attack, Kobe Bryant once again seized the opportunity to take the lead, and as soon as he passed Ariza, Ariza attacked quickly, flew up, and hit a violent dunk.
At the beginning of the second quarter, Liu Xing blocked Da Z's mid-range shot under the basket, Kobe Bryant took the lead in grabbing the rebound, and then, assisting Odom to dunk quickly, and when it came to 4 minutes and 30 seconds in the second quarter, the two sides still maintained a tie.
But then, James ushered in a super explosion.
The Lakers led the defense of James in the Odom game, and Odom was given the task of defending James.
The defensive strategy given by the Zen master was extremely simple, and the Zen master said to Odom, "James is very strong, but don't be afraid of him, he is also a human being." Also, he doesn't shoot, defend him, you put him 2 steps and he's out of line. "
Odom defends like that, too.
But James was unusual tonight, he found that Odom did not defend his three-pointers, he was annoyed, and he made a three-point shot in a negative manner, holding the ball, and went straight to the ground and shot a three-pointer.
This kind of ball, the Zen master is acceptable. Because, the Lakers' original tactics were like this.
It's a pity, but no.
James raised and fell, and the ball
went in.
Who are you looking for.
came back, Kobe Bryant came in the same position as James, but the basketball smashed directly out of the basket.
The rebound was grabbed by Big Z under the basket, and the ball was handed to James.
James made a transition, hit the Lakers one behind, he pushed the speed, coupled with his size, once he rushed, then it was like a tank car that was driving.
His body is so good that Nike was willing to give James almost 100 million dollars when he was 18 years old, not without reason.
Odom has already committed a foul, but the foul still can't resist James.
James scored 2+1, the ball scored, James also showed his biceps to the camera on the sidelines and stretched out his finger to point at his biceps, the provocation was very obvious.
James slashed five points, added free throws, and scored six points in a row, 3 minutes and 56 seconds in the second quarter, 56-50, and the Cavaliers led by 6 points.
The Zen master wants to call a timeout, but there is no chance of a dead ball.
Lakers ball possession.
Kobe Bryant one-on-one, stopped and leaned back, or nothing. Bryant's hand cooled down.
The rebound was picked up by James, and tonight, James's desire to attack was extremely strong, and holding the ball was a dragon all over the court, rushing forward.
Odom who defended him this time was very learned, and he directly blocked James's travel path, and James made a high-speed European step, rising from the ground, which was a violent dunk.
scored eight points in a row, and the Staples Center was once again silenced by James.
The Zen master couldn't do it, so he asked Ariza to take the initiative to foul and call a timeout.
There is a characteristic of Zen master coaching, he doesn't like to call timeouts very much, he leaves it to the players to solve the problem by themselves, and the players themselves really have no way to solve it, so he will ask for a timeout, this time there is really no way.
This timeout, the Zen master swapped Kobe Bryant in front of James.
Now, James is red-eyed, God blocks and kills God, Buddha blocks and kills Buddha, unstoppable, Kobe Bryant is here, and he can't stop it.
When he met Kobe, James held the ball with his back and pushed it inside.
Played smartly.
Kobe Bryant is 30 pounds less than James, even if Kobe is Malone on the guard line, but James is the body of a small forward, and Kobe Bryant's skills are not lacking in anything, but these 30 pounds really don't mean that you can make up for it if you want to.
Seeing that the distance was about the same, Kobe Bryant was afraid of Liu Xing's basket under the basket, one under the basket turned around, the other leaned back, and the ball went in.
James scored 10 straight points, and Staples fell silent again.
was beaten by James, as competitive as Kobe, and also a little top.
Kobe, like James, also asked for the ball in the low post and singled with the ball with his back.
Sit, sit, sit, one turns over and leans back, the action is picturesque, it's a pity.
The ball is still short.
Vallejo under the basket picked up the rebound and gave it directly to James, James held the ball and quickly pushed the counterattack, the speed was very fast, and all of a sudden, he arrived at the Lakers' restricted area, raised the fire, and hung the basket with one arm.
The whole person was hanging on top of the basket, and the basket showed an extremely distorted deformation under his pulling, and James once again showed his biceps to the camera and stretched out his finger again.
