The strongest champion puzzle

Chapter 299

Kidd turned the Bucks from a squid to a playoff team, and he did not make a head coach deal. However, the team has not yet established a suitable core player, and it will definitely suffer in the playoffs.

Now the Bucks want to go further in terms of teamwork and defense.

For the Cavaliers, the young Bucks are training targets, and the same is true for the Bucks.

This time the Cavaliers had a rare ten-man rotation in the first half, but the effect can only be regarded as mediocre.

The Cavaliers' style of play is doomed to only a few main players scoring.

On the contrary, the Bucks blossomed more and played very well. Their second-year freshman Antetokounmpo grew very fast, and another very versatile striker appeared.

Trailing by nine points at halftime, David Blatt felt a sense of frustration.

In the second half, the Cavaliers reduced their rotation and started the game more formally, and immediately overtook the score.

The Bucks traded for McAway, the team was not much better, and their outside shooting ability declined, so when the Cavaliers showed their power, their offensive power could not come out at all.

At the end of the quarter, the Cavaliers attacked more fiercely, and the Bucks collapsed in only half a quarter.

Kidd was silent on the sidelines, completely helpless, even if everyone is a playoff team, the gap is bigger than expected.

The last half of the quarter turned into garbage time, and the Cavaliers also won another victory.

On March 3, the Cavaliers challenged the Grizzlies away.

I thought it would be a difficult battle, but when the Grizzlies approached the playoffs, their state began to fluctuate inexplicably, and the Cavaliers won it much easier than expected.

The last quarter became garbage time, which also gave the substitutes of the two teams a chance to perform throughout the quarter.

Next, the Cavaliers lost to the Nets who were on the bench. The loss of this game also made the team consider whether to take a rotation.

However, the plan made by the Cavaliers in front is only to reduce the playing time of the main force, and it doesn't matter if they lose one or two games now, the team still hasn't started the rotation after all.

In the last game in March, the Cavaliers were almost eliminated by the 76ers who changed the lineup.

The 76ers have now completely given up hope and traded away McAway, and some young people who play are also young people that the team intends to train. It is this kind of stunned youth who can sometimes create miracles when they play.

However, the young players are still not as stable as the Cavaliers at critical moments, and they did not have a player like Zhang Xiaotian who could make a shot at the last moment, so they lost in the end.

In April, the Cavaliers' first game was at home against the Heat.

They won this game very easily, and there was no other trick, just staring at Wade.

It's not that Zhang Xiaotian's defensive skills have improved again, it's simply that Wade's body doesn't allow him to go all out again.

During this time, in order to hit the playoffs, Wade has been under too much load.

He still has the strength of the All-Star level, but he can't support a strong team as the core.

This is a bit embarrassing, but Wade already has an All-Star ring, so there is no need to care so much.

The Cavaliers' schedule in April is more relaxed, so there is no need to deliberately rest.

Yang Feiyu planned to come over again, stay here until the end of the playoffs and then go back with Zhang Xiaotian.

Under the influence of Zhang Xiaotian, this guy's enthusiasm for work has dropped a lot this year. The company has found a special management staff, and she is also happy to come to accompany her husband and take a vacation by the way.

Eddie is about to sign newcomers again. With a few players in hand, he has expanded the size of the company. In addition to paying attention to newcomers, he now also plans to poach newcomers.

Zhang Xiaotian doesn't care about these anymore, after the company grows, personal friendship will definitely be diluted at work.

On the contrary, Yang Feiyu has a plan to expand the free choice market in the United States. Zhang Xiaotian is also very popular in the United States, but he changes teams every year, and the fans are not very stable except for Chinese.

"You will still win the championship today."

"It's so simple, the NBA is not run by our family."

"Then when you were interviewed by the reporter, you still swear that the company's promotion has plans in this regard. You must know that Cleveland has not won the championship trophy yet."

"Okay, then I'll try my best to get it." Zhang Xiaotian hugged his wife, his face brimming with happiness.

Although she is much smarter than before after work, Yang Feiyu is still somewhat blindly confident towards Zhang Xiaotian.

If others hear the conversation between the two, they will definitely be sprayed in the face. Does the championship just take it as it says?

On April 4, the Cavaliers will play the Bulls again at home.

Rose did not play, but the Bulls still entangled with them to the end.

Of course, it was the Cavaliers who won the victory. Zhang Xiaotian's performance at the critical moment was praised again.

And Jimmy Butler's excellent performance with 7 points in a row at the last moment also won him many fans.

Excellent young players have emerged in large numbers, which is why the league has endured for a long time.

On April 4, the Cavaliers beat the Bucks in an away game.

It was another strong victory at the last moment, and the Cavaliers have been called the strongest team in the final quarter by the outside world.

Not only Zhang Xiaotian, but Irving and James also have big hearts. Other teams certainly don't have such a configuration.

With only the last few games left, the Cavaliers finally decided to rest.

The Celtics are the beneficiaries of the Cavaliers' rotation. Taking advantage of the Cavaliers' main players' rotation, the Celtics have won two wins against the Cavaliers. The outside world can't help shouting conspiracy, because the Celtics are now also competing for playoff tickets.

But the Cavaliers really didn't do it on purpose. If you want to blame it, you can blame the coincidence of the schedule.

It can also be seen that the Cavaliers left a few stars, which is simply a poor performance, without the demeanor of a strong team.

There is a clear difference between a star-based team and a team-based team.

On April 4th, the Cavaliers, who had adjusted their bodies, returned to the main team and simply defeated the Pistons, who were destined to miss the playoffs.

In the last game of the regular season, the Cavaliers played against the Wizards at home.

Their battle has not affected the rankings of the two sides. With James on a truce and the Cavaliers only playing halftime, the substitutes of both sides played vigorously into overtime.

The Cavaliers played the strongest battle off the bench and won the game.

On this day, some teams are still engaged in a life-and-death battle.

In the end, the Nets won the game, and the Pacers lost a key game. The Nets won the last place in the playoffs by virtue of the relationship between victory and defeat.

In the West, although the Thunder beat their opponents, they could only look at the Pelicans. In the end, the Pelicans also won the victory, ranking eighth in the West based on the relationship between the two sides.

The Spurs lost to the Pelicans and lost their chance to become No. 2 in the West, ranking sixth in the West. The gap caused by one game is so big.

The Cavaliers still did not surpass the Eagles in the end. They ranked second in the East and faced the young Celtics in the first round of the playoffs.

Zhang Xiaotian's third trip to the playoffs has begun. Although he has great confidence in the team, he has made himself stronger these days for the championship.
