Chapter 893 The Two Buttons That Make Quicken Loans Center Silent

The situation on the court changed rapidly. After playing 10 minutes in the first quarter, the 76ers replaced Wei Xia to rest.

When Wei Xia was off the field, it was 22 to 17, and the 76ers led the Cavaliers by 5 points.

A teammate off the court threw a towel, and he wiped his sweat. In the first quarter, he scored 10 points, 4 rebounds, 2 assists and 2 blocks.

But such a performance cannot conceal the problem of the 76ers' tight inside.

The 76ers can only be thankful that the Cavaliers have no inside players who can dominate the penalty area one-on-one. Thompson is the leader of the basket. Love and Frye are both in the Cavaliers.

They played inside more decisively.

Having said that, the intensity of the 76ers' game has refreshed the perception of the Cavaliers.

They use high-intensity, high-intensity offensive and defensive ends to reduce the pressure on the inside.

The Cavaliers kept Irving to lead the second team, and James and Wei Xia went off the court to rest.

Playing such a high-intensity game, James consumes more than Wei Xia. Similarly, his physical fitness is not as good as Wei Xia.

If the war of attrition continues, the 76ers will definitely benefit in the end.

At this time, the five players on the 76ers field are Rondo, Oubre, Robertson, Odom and Hollins.

Only Rondo is considered a regular starter, and the other four are from the second team.

In extraordinary times, the 76ers must use this lineup to withstand the Cavaliers' counterattack.

However, the first ominous sign came from the outside of the Cavaliers.

Iman Shumpert made a weird three-pointer.

From outside the 45-degree three-point line on the right, Shumpert made a shot and missed for the first time, but the ball bounced high, fell on the basket again, jumped a few times, and rolled into it.

Shumpert's three-pointer was lucky to bag, 20 to 22.

At the beginning of the second quarter, the Cavaliers chased the point difference to 2 points with a thrilling three-pointer.

The 76ers' coaching staff quickly discovered that although this lineup has multiple ball-holding points on the court, there is no player who can firmly dominate the opponent.

Rondo's three-pointer is a fatal flaw; Oubre can only shoot open three-pointers under the intensity of the playoffs; Robertson is a new generation of "offensive things I don't understand, but you don't want to understand" players; .
No one can stand up and make a final decision, and some embarrassing things will happen.

For example, when an opportunity arises, you cannot grasp it.

Rondo is typical. The Cavaliers let him go. No matter how you call it a tactic, the opportunity will always come from Rondo.

Rondo also tried to pass the opportunity to others, but the Cavaliers' empty tactics are both rogue and effective. As long as he can't make the damn ball in the basket, then all this is for naught.

"boom!"

Rondo missed an open three-pointer.

The Cavaliers' counterattack opportunity was handed over to the spiritual guy Shumpert.

If they can score a counterattack, the Cavaliers will be able to tie the score.

The opportunity to make meritorious deeds, the great opportunity to score five points in a row to help the team equalize the score in the life-and-death battle is just around the corner, and Shumpert is blinded by the desire to make meritorious deeds.

He took the ball to the 76ers' basket.

Then, an offensive foul was made by Hollins.

"Saved." Holiday breathed a sigh of relief.

Wei Xia was ready to return to the game, and he applied to Wright to play early.

"No more rest?" Wright asked.

Wei Xia said a cold joke: "When we lose, I have a whole summer to rest."

From this, Wright learned that Weixia's determination to play was unshakable, so he notified the technical station to make a substitution.

At the same time, Hollins, who made an offensive foul on the defensive end, continued to gain.

He was missed at the free throw line, and he wondered why the Cavaliers disdained his shots so much.

You know, when he was in the draft, the shooting threat at the free throw line was a big selling point.

Hollins hit a jumper from the free throw line with a hollow hit.

24 is better than 20
Seeing that Wei Xia was about to play, on the Cavaliers side, James seemed to have activated something in his body, and he couldn't sit still.

Under his request, Director Lu, who had no right to choose independently, nodded and agreed for him to play.

By the way, Dellavedova and Mozkov were also called out.

One is to replace Irving, and the other is to bring height to the penalty area.

Without Cousins ​​on the court, Mozkov's offensive and defensive ability in the penalty area may surprise everyone.

Hollins' 2 points just solved the 76ers' urgent need, and Frye's three-pointer from the bottom corner put the 76ers in the predicament of being chased and spanked again.

23 is better than 24
Seeing that Wei Xia was about to play, Rondo gave the ball to Odom.

Odom broke through with the ball and caused a foul for the Cavaliers, dead ball.

Wei Xia came on and replaced Odom, and he continued to play the fourth position.

For the Cavaliers, James replaced Shumpert.

In this way, the Cavaliers' lineup became Dellavedova, JR Smith, James, Frye, and Mozkov.

A lineup that looks like it's going to kill the inside.

Re-serve, Wei Xia, who is standing in the fourth position, sends the ball to Rondo.

Frye, who was suddenly facing him, completely forgot how to defend.

In the future, he will praise the emperor's stinky feet one day. On the show, he openly stated that the emperor is the best in history, and said that Jordan, Wechat, and Kobe are just pure offensive players, and they can't compare with James who takes care of all aspects of the game.

Don't be angry, we should start from his point of view. Frye has never been a player who knows what defense is, so he has points, assists, and rebounds in his eyes, and James is the second person in history who knows how to fill these three statistics, so he thinks that James is the best in history.

It's just that now, the problem of not knowing how to defend is a hidden danger for the Cavaliers.

Wei Xia ran to the basket at the fastest speed.

Rondo saw his hand pointing at the basket and knew exactly what he was doing. Frye didn't follow. It was a godsend!
"Brilliant pass, Rajon Rondo is amazing!"

"Look, it's Wish!!"

Wei Xia stepped on the paint to jump, and he had enough space to take off and glide.

His body rotated in the air, his right hand firmly grasped Rondo's wonderful pass, and the body that continued to rotate gracefully completed a 360-degree rotation in the air. Then, without interference, Wei Xia scored what may be the most beautiful, moving, and most difficult alley-oop dunk in the history of the Eastern Conference Finals.

"Holy W~~~ishhhhhh!!!"

"What is this, God! What have we seen!"

The 360-degree twist dunk is a dunk that sounds easy but is extremely difficult to do.

Even in the slam dunk contest, few people would choose this action.

It's really a test of the tacit understanding between the passer and the dunker.

As long as you can pass the ball in place, as long as you can catch the ball steadily, it is not difficult to turn around 360 degrees and dunk the ball. What is difficult is to pass and catch the ball well.

Without any prior rehearsal, Wei Xia and Rondo showed the audience at will.

How hostile the people of Cleveland are to Wei Xia, the silence at this moment symbolizes how much waves that dunk made in their hearts.

"The fans here are not as unfriendly as expected." Wei Xia said to James by the way, "I can't believe you would hit them in the face in such a decisive way."

James responded coldly: "You are not me and have no right to comment on this matter."

"What's the reason? I didn't say that your decision was wrong. I'm asking you, why did you use a national live broadcast to hurt the fans severely?" Wei Xia made small movements against James' body, and added by the way, "Or since then, you only have them in your eyes?"

It was too late, Owen suddenly divided Frye.

Frye was still in the corner, and for some reason, Roberson didn't stick to him and gave him a chance to shoot.

Given the chance, Fry made a bold shot.

"Shh!"

His shots continued to hit.

This goal offset the adverse effects of Wei Xia's top-ranked alley-oop dunk in the history of the Eastern Conference Finals. 26 to 26, the Cavaliers tied.

"Give me a good defense!"

James yelled in a rare way, using his voice to make the Cavaliers' defensive intensity suddenly increase.

The 76ers only have Rondo and Wei Xia as the two main players. If the Cavaliers' defensive strength increases, it will be difficult to open tactics unless the ball is given to Wei Xia.

Under the high-pressure defense that the Cavaliers did not give a chance, the 76ers wasted 12 seconds before they knew how to give the ball to Wei Xia.

Wei Xia ran to the outside to catch the ball, leaving him with only 7 seconds to attack.

The person who came out to defend him was not Frye who should have come to defend him, but JR Smith.

The Cavaliers naturally knew that letting Frye come to defend Wei Xia was to deliver the goods to their door.

Since Frye didn't come by himself, Wei Xia asked the pick-and-roll to call him.

Frye's choice is to stay close to the paint area. As long as Wei Xia doesn't hit that position, he can pretend that nothing happened. If Wei Xia doesn't force him to eat him when he has a shooting opportunity, then he will naturally use all his strength to stop it.

Hollins' pick-and-roll was in place, JR's defense was left outside, Wei Xia didn't really shoot, and rushed towards the penalty area.

Frye's defense deserves this treatment. Everyone in the audience thought that Wei Xia was going to crush in like a tank like James. Suddenly, his hand moved the ball all the way to the left, did he actually pass the ball?
Mike Breen yelled "Magic Move"!The audience knows what happened.

"Wish's magic fooled everyone. Fry's head was completely turned to the outside, but the ball was still in Wish's hands. He jumped up and dunked directly in front of Frye!"

"He knocked Fry off the court!"

Wade smashed Varejao's defense in a similar way back then, and Frye's attack was very different from Varejao's.

Varejao was defending the penalty area, and he died, even though he lost with honor.

Frye was knocked out by Wei Xia without even understanding the situation.

The only thing he knew was that Wei Xia's ball was not passed.Not only did it not pass out, but he also held it in his hand and dunked it in the most ruthless and hardest way.
