You should cross the mountains like a brave man

Chapter 879
The Cavaliers summed up the experience of dealing with the 76ers. In the final analysis, there is only one: call the pick-and-roll and hit Cousins.

As long as Cousins ​​remains the 76ers' inside core, this is a strategy that can be used in the long run.

Now they can't figure it out. James may be the player with the greatest influence on his team. At this point, the emperor has achieved unprecedented success—or you can find a second example of "When he was there, the team was a championship team;

It's as if Michael Jordan is considered insurmountable not only because of his feats on the court, but also because of his deified influence.

The influence of people on the world cannot be quantified, and the influence of players on the court may be reflected by various high-level data that excel fans love to see.

However, what troubled the knight was Wei Xia's rare personal dominance of single-point blasting and radiating the overall situation in ancient times.

Even James admitted that 1v1, Wish is invincible.

The scary thing about Wei Xia is that he will destroy his opponent and affect other opponents with his personal victory. What's more, as a defender, he has won three DPOYs unprecedentedly as the second position.

For Wei Xia's arrangement, it doesn't make much sense anymore, and he can only start with his teammates.

Under such a background, in Game2, the Cavaliers designed Cousins ​​ingeniously, flanking Hayward, and for the first time let James match up with Weixia.

The fiasco of Game1 and the lessons learned in the past two years also made James understand that he must find a way to do something to contain Weixia.

I'm afraid there is nothing that can inspire teammates more than confronting Wei Xia head-on.

James' breakthrough threat is as dangerous as a tiger. At the same time, the Cavaliers use the pick-and-roll tactics to play small and big, and the defensive flaws of Cousins ​​and Odom are magnified.

Rondo began to miss open three-pointers, and Hayward suffered from a much stronger defense than in the past few games. In a single quarter, the 76ers were forced by the Cavaliers to make 6 turnovers.

It's just that the Cavaliers' offensive firepower was not strong enough. The 76ers were forced to make 6 turnovers, and the result was a stalemate between the two sides.

The situation is staggered, and neither side can establish an advantage.

The game entered the second quarter, Weixia and James rested, and Holiday and Cousins ​​played with substitutes.

James' ubiquitous influence is starting to have side effects on lineups without him.

Without James, Love and Frye, the two inside shooters, can fire from a distance, but they can't maximize their power.

On the other hand, Holiday and Cousins, they match just right, singles from the outside, strong offense from the inside, and tactically guided three-point shooting.

The Cavaliers hit a 16-8 spurt.

They were forced to stop the game and let James come back, and the 76ers also exchanged for Wecha.

The ensuing sense of urgency caused James to start a large number of offenses.

Under today's rules, James' breakthrough is unsolvable. Even Wei Xia, as long as he takes a step, he cannot stop him from advancing. The advantages brought by his size are fully displayed on the way to the breakthrough.

The 76ers couldn't make any extra intervention on him.

James went into the penalty area and scored consecutive layups.

Every time he breaks through and scores, Wei Xia must be rewarded.

Or outside shooting, or low attack, or cut out to catch and shoot.

The duel between Wei Xia and James will always be a monotonous domineering offense and a variety of personal talents.

James' methods are always the same, but they are effective. There is no lack of domineering methods in any industry that everyone knows what he intends to do but cannot stop.

"Keep your eyes open and remember what you see!"

"This is a heroic duel between two top ten superstars in history!"

James tried his best to attack, so that the Cavaliers were only 76 points behind the 9ers before halftime.

韦夏半场19分6篮板3助攻，詹姆斯半场15分7篮板5助攻。

They are tight, but the 76ers are the leading side.

Midfield, when Dr. J of the ESPN interview scene asks him what advice he has for the second half of the game.

Dr. J replied gracefully: "Halftime is over, and the 76ers haven't put out their small lineup yet, which shows that they still have room to spare."

It can be said that Dr. J's words hit the real point.

The famous 76 system of the 41ers has not been seen so far, which shows that the Cavaliers have not yet pushed them to a corner.

Those who often watch Ultraman know that they only zoom in when the red light is on.

Sometimes, the strength of the monster is too weak, so the ultimate move is used to finish the battle. If there is no winner between the two sides, the ultimate move is used for a decisive battle.

Tonight, the 76ers used their 41 system at the right time.

In the second half, in the first few minutes, Wei Xia found that the number of fouls by the Cavaliers insider Tristan Thompson had accumulated to 3 times, so he did the same thing as the Cavaliers.

Call the pick-and-roll, miss Thompson.

His plan succeeded once, attracting Thompson in front of him, the sudden, intensive physical contact made the referee involuntarily blow the superstar whistle.

Wei Xia seemed to have a tacit understanding with the referee. Before the whistle sounded, he took off first. His posture in the air was as elegant as Vince Carter in his peak period. In front of the audience all over the world, he spun and moved 360 degrees in the air.

"Shh!"

"Holy Wish!!!"

Thompson made four fouls, and Wei Xia scored the best goal since the start of the Eastern Conference Finals. The 76ers led by 12 points. If an additional penalty is scored, it will be 13 points.

Excluding the psychological shock brought by Wei Xia's shocking goal and the bonus of the home audience, the strategic significance of Thompson's four offenses is far greater than the actual significance.

Cavaliers have no insiders!

For their entire lineup, the only available insiders are Thompson, Love, Channing Frye and Mozkov, who can't keep up with the rhythm because of his speed.

Where is Thompson's value?He's the only big man on the Cavaliers who can provide help, rebound, drive down to the rim without slowing down the offense.

Both Love and Frye are James' favorites, but without Thompson, it would be like an imbalance between yin and yang, with only offense but no defense, which is a taboo in the playoffs.

Therefore, it is clear that the red light of Ultraman Philadelphia has not yet turned on, but they have decided to use their big move to KO the monster in front of them.

Jay Wright replaced Faried who started in the second half, Hayward mentioned the four position, and Andre Robertson came up to play the three position.

The 76ers' 41 system is here.

Cavaliers coach Tyronn Lue immediately showed his tactical genius side.

He actually abandoned Love and Frye, and did not activate Mozkov, but directly let James play the fifth position.

The policy of "defeating magic with magic" is not unacceptable. It must have an offensive point that surpasses the physical talents of the 76ers and has strong lethality.The Warriors' five minors and the imitation of the 76ers' one and four minors made them extremely uncomfortable. On the one hand, while they did not suffer from height, they also had the upper hand in speed and offensive threats.

In addition, the gold-like super backcourt of Wall and Curry has caused a lot of damage to the 76ers and other teams in the league. It is terrible.

However, the Cavaliers' small lineup is old and soft, and the lethality of several main attack points is obviously not as good as that of the Warriors.

James' breakthrough efficiency is excellent today, but the overall shooting rate is average, with 17 of 7 shots in the game.After returning to the Cavaliers, James' mid-range shooting is obviously not as stable as it was during the Heat.During the Heat period, James' mid-range shooting percentage once approached 44%.But in the past two years, many teams have taken two steps against James.Therefore, the 76ers' defense against James is very targeted.

When James has the ball, the 76ers usually don't let go and lure James to the sideline.When James was blocked from the baseline vision, the 76ers' attack came.

Today, if you only look at James' shooting hot spots, you will find that he is playing magic ball.

Under Wei Xia's defense, although he made a mid-range jumper, he missed a goal and all the points came from the penalty area and outside.

In this case, James' offense was deformed and he was unable to drive his teammates.Love and Owen are also completely unable to share the pressure of James.

Therefore, the Cavaliers' tactics are extremely monotonous. Except for James' strong play, there are no air cuts or pick-and-rolls.

Therefore, when the Cavaliers put up a small lineup and let James play the center, it seems to be creative, but it is almost a way of suicide.

In addition to salary, Tristan Thompson's personal ability is not as good as other top insiders, but he is also a usable player. At the moment of life and death, in order to protect him and let James play center, the Cavaliers' insiders are completely undefended.

Facing James, Weixia attacked the basket 5 times and succeeded 4 times.

In the remaining quarter, the Cavaliers defended the basket 30 times and were scored 76 times by the 20ers.The inside line was completely blown up.

The complete opposite of them is the 76ers' 41 lineup. Wei Xia's ability to protect the basket is affected by his height and is generally underestimated. In fact, if he puts aside the stereotypes of the inside and outside, his ability to protect the basket can be ranked in the top ten in the league. In terms of individual matchups, he can defend anyone in the league.

On the offensive end, the 76ers have multiple passing points, and everyone can cut.The Cavaliers' old, slow and soft defensive players were rushed to a mess.

Starting from coach Lu's stupid move of James hitting five with one move, the Cavaliers bid farewell to victory. Until the end of the game, they did not see the dawn of victory.

In the end, the 76ers beat the Cavaliers again.

James scored a super triple-double in vain, while Weixia on the opposite side scored a quasi-triple-double with 41 points, 9 rebounds and 7 assists. Amid the so-called "influence not as good as James" in the world, he led the 76ers to a 2-0 lead over the Cavaliers and successfully secured two home games.

"What do you think of the rumors that you're not as influential on the court as LeBron?"

When the media threw sharp questions in front of Wei Xia and asked him to answer them face to face, he said with a smile: "I don't know what this influence is. I only know that I am both the scoring leader this season and the best defensive player this season."
