Chapter 115: Strong performance, ending the game early!
"Lin Yu stole the ball from LeBron James and started a fast break with the ball!"
"Lin Yu is too fast! The knight has no time to return to defense!"
"Facing an empty restricted area, Lin Yu took off from the free throw line and slammed it with one hand!"
“The whole North Shore Garden was filled with cheers!”
Mike Brin also started cheering for Lin Yu...
Jones, who was on the sidelines, saw this scene and applauded Lin Yu while secretly breathing a sigh of relief.
"Teacher, you have a good eye. Cleveland's chosen son is no match for Lin Yu at this moment!"
He is not a fool. As a Celtics legend, Jones has a very good vision.
James' best offensive method, when facing Lin Yu and unable to break the situation, fell into offensive stagnation.
Unless in this game, the Cavaliers can change their lineup, or James can find other ways to open the situation.
Otherwise, James will definitely lose in this competition with Lin Yu.
The cardinal smiled and replied, "Jones, LeBlanc is still very talented. His skills are just immature now. When his skills mature, he will not be so easy to deal with."
"The teacher is right. With Le Brun's talent, his future achievements will definitely not be low."
While the two were talking, the game continued.
Just as Jones said, at this time the Cavaliers were completely suppressed by the Celtics.
As the Cavaliers' first scoring point, James can only break through and pass the ball when he has the ball.
As for using the big Z pick-and-roll and directly pulling up from the high position...
In the original history, James' long two-point shooting percentage this season is 37.3%.
Coupled with Lin Yu's timely switching of defense, even if James really took a shot, there was a high probability that he would miss.
The Cavaliers finally relied on Big Z to beat Mehmet Okur under the basket and scored the first goal of the game.
then……
The Cavaliers fell into a state of iron shooting. Although Rivers has been criticized for his ability to respond on the spot throughout his coaching career, he is not good.
In the playoffs, they were always overturned by their opponents when leading 3:1 or 2:0.
But as a head coach, his management of the team's fundamentals is still above average, especially in defense.
'Penny' Hardaway was once the 'successor to Jordan', although he also suffered injuries.
But at this time, there is still the strength to fight.
As a swingman, there is no problem in defending James at this time.
As soon as the Cavaliers set a pick-and-roll, the Celtics immediately started switching defense or double-teaming.
Although James can pass the ball, his passing and organizing ability is, to some extent, indeed a little lacking.
This refers to when compared to top point guards like Paul.
In the original history, James averaged 7.2 assists per game, but had 3.3 turnovers per game.
This assist-to-turnover ratio basically means that James makes a turnover for every 2.1 assists he gives out.
Even if he gets rid of the defense of Pierce and Hardaway on the outside, he still has to face Lin Yu if he wants to get to the basket!
"Lin Yu seems to be everywhere today! He once again appeared on Le Brun's breakthrough route!"
"This terrifying help defense reminds me of Kevin Garnett and Ben Wallace!"
"James made a mistake in passing the ball under Lin Yu's defense, and Mehmet Okur took the opportunity to steal the ball successfully!"
"The Celtics started to fight back! Lin Yu received the ball and made a quick stop outside the three-point line!" "This is Lin Yu's 14th point in a single quarter! The Cavaliers are already 8 points behind!"
With every word Mike Brin spoke, Mr. Pi and Amy Johnson's faces grew darker.
Before the game started, the two predicted that Lin Yu would get around 15 points and 8 rebounds in this game.
Before the first quarter was over, Lin Yu had already scored 14 points.
This……
Mike Brin did not forget to finish off the two men at this time.
"Scottie, Amy, your predictions before the game were pretty accurate, but Lin Yu scored almost 15 points in a single quarter."
FXXK!
At this time, Mr. Pi had already begun to greet the Cavaliers head coach in his heart.
Why can’t we strengthen our defense and give Lin Yu a chance to fight back?
If single defense doesn’t work, double-team!
Silas: Do you really think Lin Yu can't pass the ball? How about you draw the tactical board?
Seeing that the two men didn't say anything, Mike Brin continued to finish off the enemy.
"Before the game started, the outside media generally favored the Cavaliers because they were a playoff team last season and had made reinforcements during the offseason."
"We have acquired outstanding players such as LaFrentz and Eric Snow, but now we are suppressed by the Celtics in the opening. Scottie and Amy, what do you think is the reason?"
When Mr. Pi heard this, his face became so gloomy that it seemed as if water could drip out of it.
After a moment's silence, he began to defend the knight: "We all know that Laforentz was seriously injured. I thought Laforentz recovered well."
"But I didn't expect his athletic ability to decline so much."
"It's normal that Laforentz can't defend Lin Yu now."
"Last season, the Cavaliers were only a fringe playoff team. This season, they changed their roster system, so there are still some problems with running-in."
"The current strength may be weaker than last season, but I admit that Lin Yu played really well in this game."
"But playing well in one game doesn't mean anything. There are many strong players at the 4 position in the Eastern Conference."
"For example, Jermaine O'Neal, who ranked third in the MVP list last season, and Rasheed Wallace, who just won the championship with the Pistons..."
"I believe that when Lin Yu faces a truly powerful opponent, he will definitely be restricted!"
Mike Brin looked at the stubborn Mr. Pi, and the corners of his mouth twitched slightly.
Is it so difficult to admit that Lin Yu is a good fighter?
The game on the field continues.
Lin Yu's teammates were still passing the ball to Lin Yu at this time, helping Lin Yu to complete a perfect performance.
"Another three-pointer! Lin Yu has already scored 7 points in the second quarter!"
"Big Z received the ball in the low post and wanted to single out Mehmet Okur. Lin Yu! It's Lin Yu again! His help defense was so timely!"
"Faced with a double-team, Big Z missed the shot, Lin Yu grabbed the rebound and started a fast break. He was so fast! It was like a flash of lightning!"
"The Cavaliers had no time to defend! Beautiful! Another slam dunk! The entire North Shore Garden is cheering for Lin Yu!"
With Mike Breen's excited roar, the Cavaliers were completely at a disadvantage.
Cavaliers head coach Silas looked up at the big score on the big screen.
此时凯尔特人以46:36领先了骑士10分,而此时距离第二节比赛结束还剩下3分27秒。
Silas knew that the game was over as expected.
