super small forward

Chapter 478 478. Insidious Strategy

The score was too tight. At this time, D'Antoni also let go of the idea of ​​​​eating the Cavaliers and started a regular rotation.

Jeremy Lin, McCollum, Nick Young, Antetokounmpo, Whiteside played.

On the Cavaliers side, Delavidova, Sefrosa, Sean Marion, Love, Kendrick Perkins.

Cavaliers head coach Blatter saw Perkins' face twitching. He didn't understand what the Cavaliers management was thinking. Perkins' 1000 million contract!Why did the management replace him?
Antetokounmpo advanced with the ball, the power forward dribbled, and the Cavaliers fans were a little bit pained.

Antetokounmpo is simply a bug!Go forward and close-defend him?If you go inside, you will be passed immediately. If you go outside, the other outside line of the Lakers will have a big gap. The Lakers have shooting ability in all three outside lines, so there is no way to press. The big man dribbled the ball slowly.

The Cavaliers' perimeter defense is still tough, and the Lakers are now adapting to the Cavaliers' defense, with Antetokounmpo striding into the interior.

Mozgov left the field and replaced Perkins. The Cavaliers' interior defense was basically finished. Antetokounmpo's breakthrough attracted Sean Marion's interception. The Cavaliers could only use the outside to help defend, otherwise Par With Kings' mobility, Antetokounmpo dared to dunk directly!

Antetokounmpo saw someone assisting the defense, and decisively gave the ball to Nick Young, who scored two points with a mid-range shot.

The Cavaliers attack, or the two guards pass the ball back and forth first, Love wants to go up to catch the ball, but Antetokounmpo's circle forward is very powerful.

With Love unable to get the basketball, Delavidova has the confidence to play singles.

Jeremy Lin came up to defend against Delavidova.

Delavidova is very confident, holding the ball and rushing to the inside, Jeremy Lin followed closely. He is not Korver, and his speed is no worse than Delavidova.

Delavidova was just like that holding the ball and drilling around. When she entered the inside and saw Whiteside looking at him with indifferent eyes, she ran out in fright. Jeremy Lin clung to him after running out. It was almost consumed in his hands.

Della Vedova was still a little timid about shooting from the outside line against the defense, and handed it to Sefrosa with five seconds left.

Sefolosa nearly swore when she got the ball because with seconds left, Delavidova had had enough of basketball.In the end, I ran out of time and threw it to him.

While Severosa was angry, she could only come by herself, and made a three-pointer under McCollum's defense.

Facing the defensive shot, Sefolosa didn't know what to expect, but luckily he made it!
The Lakers quickly advanced. The Lakers' lineup is no longer playing talent, but tends to attack as a whole, mainly playing off the ball and cooperating.

The Cavaliers' perimeter defense is also really good. Delavidova can get a stable playing time in such a poor offensive situation, relying on defense. Seferrosa has always been very good defensively. Sean Marion even at an advanced age High, single defense is still good.

The Lakers showed no signs of scrambling, but it was also difficult to break the opponent's perimeter defense.

The Cavaliers' attack pit, the Lakers' side is actually not much better.

The starting lineup did not play the defensive scene that the two teams originally wanted. Unexpectedly, the bench lineup actually came out. The Cavaliers' outside trio is like an outside meat grinder, and the Lakers' two big men inside are like an inside meat grinder.

The scene is extremely boring, iron iron iron, in addition to iron or iron.

Until halfway through the second quarter, the two teams were slow to attack, hit the iron, and occasionally scored one, until the official timeout of the second quarter.

The Cavaliers made substitutions, James and Mozgov were replaced, Marion and Perkins, who did not contribute anything but fouls in the first half of the quarter, were replaced.

D'Antoni only replaced McCollum with Liu Ren.

The Cavaliers are basically the main force, only Irving was not sent to the field.

The Lakers attacked, and the Lakers didn't play well in the first half of the quarter, mainly because there was no clear scoring point.

Liu Ren came on the court to score. He beckoned Whiteside to come out of the pick-and-roll and cut into the interior. Antetokounmpo passed the ball just right.

When Liu Ren received the ball, he had already cut to the edge of the three-second zone. With the impact of a sprint, he completely ignored Mozgov who stayed inside, and directly flew for a dunk!

Mozgov was furious, no matter what he was a big man of [-] meters, he didn't want to give up in front of the fans of the home team, this guy hugged Liu Ren with both hands, and carried Liu Ren down from the air.

"Grass!" Liu Ren lost his balance.

Fortunately, Mozgov hugged Liu Ren very firmly, instead of letting Liu Ren fall directly to the ground, he put him down firmly.

Although Liu Ren is safe, the ball just now was clearly a malicious foul!But this is the home court of the Cavaliers. The referee immediately came over and made up a technical foul for Mozgov, and then stood in front of Liu Ren, fearing that Liu Ren would punch Mozgov and walk over. The referee wanted to calm down.

Liu Ren was furious at first, but seeing the referee's warning eyes and remembering that the team had more important tasks, he glared at Mozgov and walked to the free throw line.

The appearance of this action suddenly broke the relatively "friendly" atmosphere of the two teams before.

Liu Ren went to the free throw line and made two free throws for a shooting foul, plus a technical foul free throw for a total of three free throws. However, Liu Ren was very upset and made one of the three free throws.

The Cavaliers attacked. After the Cavaliers replaced the main force, there was no problem scoring. Love made a mid-range shot.

When it came time for the Lakers to attack again, Liu Ren took the ball from the outside and singled Saifrosa, and directly knocked Saifrosa away and broke into the inside.

This breakthrough was quite controversial. Liu Ren's elbow swing was too obvious, but the referee didn't blow it. Mozgov's ball just now had every reason to send him away, so this ball can be regarded as compensation for Liu Ren.

Here Severosa is also helpless, he can't prevent him from running in with Liu Ren from behind!Moreover, Mozgov on the inside did not dare to make big defensive moves. Even if he was not called a malicious foul, he might be sent a technical foul, and then he would be fined for two technical fouls.

Seeing Liu Ren jumping high again, Sefulosa could only pull Liu Ren.

Sefulosa's blow was also ruthless enough, pulling Liu Ren staggeringly, the referee's whistle blew again, a defensive foul.

This action was not small. After Liu Ren stabilized his balance, he lowered his head and walked towards Sefulosa. The referee immediately stopped Liu Ren, and then gave the Cavaliers a technical foul.

He was called two technical fouls in a row, but at this time the Cavaliers coach Blatter laughed.

Hasn't been able to find a clear weakness for the Lakers, but he's got his way now.

The Cavaliers called a timeout!Blatter called the players together.

"Foul more! Foul Liu more often! Or use flops to make him foul, even if the flops fail, it doesn't matter, just let him play more unhappy and angry."

James' eyes lit up, this tactic is really despicable... But judging from Liu Ren's reaction just now, James thinks it might be very useful!

After the timeout, Liu Ren missed all three free throws!

The Cavaliers must be sure that Liu Ren's outside touch has not been good today. Before that, he failed to score three open three-pointers in a row, but now he hits one of six free throws!Then you can use fouls to prevent him from scoring!
Now Liu Ren's mentality has indeed been greatly affected. The Cavaliers' style of play has suddenly become a bit dirty, and the away referee is obviously biased towards the Cavaliers, which makes Liu Ren very upset.

After one round, the Lakers attacked again, and Liu Ren continued to hold the ball.

Liu Ren also knew that he didn't feel good about shooting today, so he chose to force his way.

Sefulosa, who was defending him, couldn't stop him, and was forced away by Liu Ren.

Sefulosa couldn't bear Liu Ren, and seeing Liu Ren was going to pass him again, he remembered the coach's arrangement, and wanted to make a ruthless foul, but he thought that he had already suffered a technical foul, and maybe another one Something is going to happen!Then dive?Sefulosa was also taught badly by Blatter. This flop came as soon as he said it. When Liu Ren exerted his strength again, he was touched by Liu Ren and lay back directly...

The referee whistles, offensive foul!
"What the hell?" Liu Ren obviously only touched Sefolosha, but the force of the collision didn't touch anyone, so why did he commit an offensive foul?

Flip!

Liu Ren was impatient and was about to argue with the referee, but D'Antoni stopped him and called a timeout.

"Liu, they must have done it on purpose. They wanted to provoke you on purpose. This is their only way to get the score back..." D'Antoni could see what Blatt wanted to do at a glance, and Blatt's strategy also It's too obvious, it's an obvious conspiracy, but D'Antoni really can't find a way to solve it except to appease Liu Ren.

The Cavaliers wanted to irritate Liu Ren, and they used the two most unsolvable methods of fouling and fouling.

Liu Ren also calmed down, and he could see that the Cavaliers wanted to provoke him.

Endure a moment of calm...

Liu Ren stabilized his emotions. After returning from the timeout, he did not continue to hold the ball, but took the initiative to run the pick-and-roll and handed the ball to Antetokounmpo's organization.

But Liu Ren just calmed down, but Saifuluosha didn't let Liuren go. As soon as Liuren got the ball, he wanted to go to Jeremy Lin who was about to make an air cut. He stretched out his foot to Liu Ren's feet, tripped Liu Ren and staggered.

The referee immediately gave Sefulosa a foul, but Liu Ren's anger was finally fully aroused by Sefulosa.

Liu Ren glared at Sefulosa, who was beside him with an innocent face.

Forbearance is calm for a while...forbear your sister!This guy is courting death!Liu Ren threw his arm on Severosa, directly overturning Sefolosha!
Now Liu Ren is really angry!
The Cavaliers found a reason to target Liu Ren, and the other four immediately surrounded them, and the Lakers also surrounded them. The incident had escalated into a conflict between the two teams, and a fight was likely to occur.

Of course, the Cavaliers did this on purpose. They just wanted to provoke Liu Ren and escalate the conflict. It would be better to use Sefulosa or any player other than James to exchange Liu Ren.

The referee is very tired!Going to persuade the fight again and separate the players from both sides.

The fans admired the referee very much, the physical ability to run the whole court, and the strength to pull these big men away...

This time the referee called Sefulosa a foul, and Liu Ren swung his elbow. It was a conflict provoked by Liu Ren. The referee finally gave Liu Ren a technical foul.

D'Antoni saw that Liu Ren's anger was completely raised, and he also got a technical foul, so he quickly replaced him and replaced him with Kobe.

If Liu Ren takes two technical fouls, it's really over!

D'Antoni simply started a large-scale substitution, Clarkson, Kobe, Korver, Gasol, and Whiteside went together.

However, Liu Ren's role in the Lakers now cannot be replaced by anyone. Without Liu Ren, not only will he lose a scoring leader averaging 35 points per game on the offensive end, but he will also lose the strongest defensive player on the outside.

Kobe is indeed in a very good state, but it still can't make up for Liu Ren's absence, and the Lakers are strong. When Liu Ren and Kobe were together, they were almost invincible outside, and now they have lost half of their combat effectiveness.

The Cavaliers took advantage of this opportunity to keep chasing points.

At the end of halftime, the score between the two sides became a 58 tie!
