Within 24 hours, the Warriors flew to Cleveland for an away game against the Cavaliers.

The focus battle has long been hyped by the media.

James was the No. 03 pick in the 31.4 class, and he is like the favorite of heaven. In the third year of his career, he averaged 7.0 points, 6.6 rebounds and [-] assists per game, and he has firmly entered the ranks of superstars.

There is no doubt that Nike has made a business that is sure to make a profit without losing money. Now James has become another powerful superstar of Nike besides Yang Di.

Yang Di is a second-round pick in the 03 class. Since entering the league, he has grown up under constant doubts. Some people say he can't defend, but he has gradually grown into a first-class frame protector. Some people say he can only rush. Grabbing offensive rebounds, he gradually developed a series of offensive methods, and now he has even become a good offensive player in the interior, and his shooting range has expanded to any place within the three-point line.

In Yang Di's body, the business done by Nike can be regarded as a model of business case. Today, Nike's share in the entire Asian market is increasing.

Warriors vs. Cavaliers, live broadcast across the United States.

Because it was all back-to-back games, Yang Di didn't have time to get together with James, and the two met directly on the field.

James is also the All-Star starting lineup in the Eastern Conference. David Stern has been cultivating him as another representative figure of the major league after Jordan. He has received a lot of convenience and publicity, although he is 6 months younger than Yang Di. , but became more and more mature and stable.

The two met with a big hug. James shook hands and patted him on the shoulder, and said with a smile: "You guys have better records than us, but you just played against the Washington Wizards yesterday, and you were very tired."

"Yes, we also played against Gilbert two days ago. He scored 48 points. We played another game in Indianapolis yesterday. Back-to-back is really exhausting."

"But in today's game, I will still show my full strength." James said solemnly, "I want to fight you with all my strength to see your strength and the strength of the Warriors today."

"Me too, the Cavaliers are also very strong, fourth in the Eastern Conference."

"By the way, the Houston All-Star Game will be held in a few days. I want to invite you to my party. I also invited Chris Paul, Dwyane Wade and others. For the All-Star Weekend, you have to relax. "

"Okay, no problem." Yang Di agreed without hesitation, but he was thinking in his heart that American capitalism would still play tricks when there was a party again.

The game started, both sides lined up the starting lineup.

Cavaliers: PG Eric Snow, SG Alexander Pavlovich, SF LeBron James, PF Drew Gooden, C Zajunas Ilgauskas.

Warriors: PG Baron Davis, SG Mike Dunleavy, SF Trevor Ariza, PF Yang Di, C Tyson Chandler.

Montgomery made lineup adjustments, the young Ariza was mentioned as the starter, against LeBron James, moving slowly, against the slightly inferior Dunleavy, he became a tall SG, as an outside turret, against Pavlovich.Derek Fisher returned to the bench.

Tyson Chandler came back in this game and beat Ilgauskas, the first wave of the Warriors' offense.

Yang Di asked for the ball in the low post, stuck the bald and shiny Drew Gooden, and asked for a deep position.

Drew Gooden looked fierce, but his defense was a bit soft, and his strength was not very strong. Yang Di caught the ball and bumped his back, turned around and hooked.

Yang Di's hook is not very good, but because it is in the three-second zone, and the defensive oppression is not strong, the technical moves are perfect, and it is easy to hit.

2 to 0, Yang Di raised his finger to Davis, indicating that he dressed in time.

The Cavaliers attacked, James came out, took the ball one step outside the three-point line, and then held the ball in a three-threat pose.

During this period, James, single-handed breakthroughs accounted for a high proportion of his offensive options. Facing Ariza's defense, he took a step to the right with his right foot, and then immediately stepped forward to break through. The speed of the first step was very fast.

The pace is also very big, and he hit Ariza's right side all at once.

Ariza only felt as if during the team training, he confronted Yang Di's breakthrough, and suddenly stepped aside, allowing James to rush into the three-point line.

"It's too strong!"

Ariza stepped sideways to keep up, James dribbled the ball with a low hand, and Yang Di let go of Gooden from the front to defend James.

James hit a point lightly, Ilgauskas caught the ball and dunked, the Cavaliers scored easily, and the game was tied 2-2.

"Hold on!"

Baron Davis yelled loudly, signaling Ariza to concentrate. Ariza nodded solemnly, but he still had no idea in his heart. James was fast and strong, and his breakthrough was like a bulldozer.

On the other side, James is also instructing Drew Gooden.

"Lower the center of gravity, pay attention to his back turn, once he invades the inside line, don't foul easily."

The Warriors attacked, and Davis called Yang Di to come out for a pick-and-roll.

Yang Di made a pick-and-roll for Davis. Davis dribbled to the right, and Yang Di went down to attract the attention of a bunch of Cavaliers. Baron Davis single-blocked a stop jumper and missed.

The rebound bounced, Gooden desperately resisted Yang Di, James stretched his arms and grabbed the rebound.

Turning around, James pushed forward.

The Warriors retreated quickly, and Yang Di followed behind, staring at James.

Outside the three-point line, James dribbled the ball under his crotch, switched his right hand to his left, then leaned over, made a wrong footstep, and accelerated to break through from Ariza's left side.

He saw Yang Di who came after him, and he didn't dare to make a shot under Yang Di's pursuit, so he still chose a point.

Transferring the ball to the outside in a wide range, Snow received the ball and made a breakthrough, and then made a one-step throw from the free throw line.

Yang Di jumped high into the air, feeling that he could almost catch the throw directly.

Snow obviously raised the arc, missed the basketball, and then the rebound was grabbed by Ariza, who protected the ball and passed it to Davis.

In the Warriors' offensive tactics, there is a changed double pick-and-roll tactic. Yang Di and Dunleavy, who has shooting ability, stand on the right side and pick and roll for Davis at the same time.

Baron Davis broke out with one step and wiped from the right side of the two, Dunleavy went out and went out, and Yang Di made an empty cut and went down.

At this time, Davis serves as a ball-holding point and can pass the ball to three places at the same time.

In this defense, the Cavaliers did an excellent rotation. Dunleavy, Yang Di, and Trevor Ariza were all man-marked. Davis made an emergency stop and dribbled the ball under his crotch to stand still.

Snow's attention was entirely on Davis, and he staggered when he was shaken.

Byron glanced at the basket, took off lightly to shoot, and made a precise shot into the frame.
