NBA Old Age Star System

Chapter 63 I Will Take Action
The first goal from the Nets was given to Johnson in a single, but the single failed.

Mozgov got the rebound, Irving took the pass and advanced to the frontcourt.

The Cavaliers' first offensive right is still given to Irving.

When Irving is on the court recently, he has a great demand for the ball, or in other words, he doesn't want to pass the ball very much.

Owen didn't call for a screen, and directly singled Deron.

Relying on his younger body and faster reaction speed, Deron was born suddenly.

Irving made a breakthrough and scored an easy layup.

Even if the Nets took the initiative, it was the Cavaliers who scored first.

It was the Nets' turn to attack, and Deron continued to give the ball to Joe Johnson.

Joe Johnson just missed a goal, and he hasn't completely lost the trust of his teammates and coaches.

Facing Su Tian this time, Johnson stopped making jump shots and made a breakthrough directly, resolutely hitting the basket.

After the first two games, Johnson seemed to understand that Su Tian seemed to have a different way of defending jump shots.

So in this game, after Johnson made a shot to try his hand, he was ready to change his style of play.

Johnson squeezed Su Tian to the basket, and the ball protector held up to open up space for layups.

There is still a certain gap between Su Tian's strength and Johnson's, and he can't well limit the breakthrough of strength.

Johnson scored a layup.

But Johnson is also uncomfortable. Although Johnson is not bad in health, he is not a real strength breakthrough player after all.

And the most important thing is that Johnson is getting older and does not have the physical fitness he had when he was young. There are much fewer options for such sudden and hard-hitting.

Neither the body nor physical strength can support playing like this for a long time.

However, at least this time he scored, and Johnson was relieved.

The pressure of public opinion can be a little less, and the pressure of public opinion suffered by Johnson in the first two games was quite high.

After all, as an All-Star player, being restricted by a rookie on the scene, the pressure is naturally great.

Here Irving continued to hold the ball at the top of the arc, and after a tactical move, he gave the ball to James on the wing.

After Irving played one, give James one, which is a tactic and a rule.

After all, Irving is still not as big as James.

James holds the ball against Bo Yang.

Bo Yang lifted his trouser legs nervously.

James ignored Bo Yang's defense at all, and after receiving the ball and adjusting, he directly started a breakthrough.

The inside line Lopez hurriedly moved to the inside line for assisting defense.

After all, the pace was a little slower.

James made a layup before Lopez arrived.

The Nets have no players on the front line who can match up with James.

And James, who has studied at the "University of Miami", is no longer the James of the Cavaliers 1.0 era.

The two teams played back and forth for several rounds, and the Nets still couldn't keep up with the Cavaliers' offensive speed.

At the end of the first quarter, the Cavaliers led the Nets by 27 points 21-6.

Su Tian only scored 5 points and 1 assist in the first quarter.

The defense against Johnson, in addition to the jump shot limit is still very good, the breakthrough of the defense against Johnson has gradually found a way.

However, Johnson himself is relatively resistant to breakthroughs, and consumes too much energy.

"It's still old, alas." Johnson sat on the bench, wiped the sweat from his head with a towel and sighed with emotion.

Deron didn't play well in the first quarter either. His sore ankle still affected his performance, and his jumper was not very accurate.

Therefore, in the first quarter, Deron still focused on organizing series.

Intersection ends and the second quarter begins.

Because of Tyronn Lue's special adjustment, the main players such as Irving did not rest, but continued to be present.

Atkinson just replaced Deron, who was not in good shape, with Jarrett Jack.

Speaking of which, Master Jack can be regarded as a very personal player in the league.

It's not to say how strong he is, but as long as he is on the team, the starting number one will always be injured inexplicably.

So much so that Jack will always start as a substitute.

Some fans even joked that Jack is the real reincarnation of Death.

Back to the game, the Cavaliers have the ball.

Irving faced Jack with the ball, constantly cross-dribbling to mobilize Jack's defensive focus.

Jack was able to keep up with the rhythm at first, but slowly lost it.

Owen directly took advantage of his unpreparedness and started a breakthrough.

Lopez was highly focused and helped defend the basket.

In the first quarter, the inside line of the Nets was almost sieved by the Cavaliers, and Lopez couldn't help being nervous.

Owen saw that Lopez had helped defend the basket in time, so he changed his moves and made a mid-range jumper with an emergency stop.

Swah——

Two points to hand.

In the second quarter, Su Tian still didn't have any chance to perform. He just participated in the tactics and was ready to catch and shoot from the corner.

The Nets also began to adjust their offensive tactics. As for whether it is the secret weapon that Atkinson said, I don't know.

Jack kept throwing the ball to Lopez, reducing Johnson and the others.

Lopez's singles at the basket are still of a certain level, and he scored several in a row.

But they couldn't hold back the high shooting percentage of the Cavaliers' team. Irving and James held the ball continuously, which made the Nets always want to catch up.

At the end of the second quarter, Su Tian only played two rounds with the ball, scoring one goal and one assist, and his efficiency was not bad.

At the end of the second quarter, the Cavaliers led the Nets by 52 points 42-10.

Atkinson was not satisfied with this point difference, and Tyronn Lue was not satisfied either.

Atkinson thinks, they have all come to the home court, why are they still so bad?
How do you deal with the boss?

If it's 3-0, the fourth game will be a fart, just hit the head.

Taking advantage of the half-time break, Tyronn Lue emphasized tactics and defense again, emphasizing the need to widen the point difference as much as possible.

Soon, the halftime break ended and the game began.

At the beginning of the third quarter, Su Tian was replaced for a rest, ready to let Su Tian exert his strength in the second half of the third quarter.

Su Tian: But I didn't hang up in the third quarter!

The Nets also increased the playing time of the main players on the court, trying to recover the point difference in the third quarter.

Except Deron.

It seems that Atkinson has already decided to push Deron to be a scapegoat.

Deron also seemed to be in a mess, he didn't show any emotions, but he didn't know if he had other emotions in his heart.

The knights began to attack here.

Because the first two quarters were a bit fierce, Irving took the initiative to play the ball for his teammates this time, passing the ball through tactical moves.

Love received the pass at a 45-degree angle and opened his hand directly to make a three-pointer.

The Cavaliers who played as a team made the Nets even more desperate.

But Lopez didn't disappoint Atkinson either.

The Cavaliers' backup center Thompson was still a little immature in defending Lopez, allowing Lopez to score several consecutive shots.

Although the Nets did not close the point difference, the Cavaliers did not widen it either.

With 3 minutes left in the third quarter, Su Tian came on to replace Irving.

At this time, Owen was already sweating profusely. From the beginning to the present, the physical exertion was indeed a bit heavy.

The main thing is that Owen has been holding the ball, so he is even more tired.

But that's okay.

Su Tian: It doesn't matter, I will make a move.
