Devil shooting guard in basketball

Chapter 270 The balance of abilities? (33)

Wharton sat alone in the conference room with a numb head.

At this time, all the teaching assistants around him had left, and he was the only one in the empty meeting room.

Coffee cups are messy on the table.

Walton himself does not want to miss the next game.

After all, the next time I play against the opponent, maybe I have already returned to the position of assistant coach from the interim coach.

Can the Warriors beat the Cleveland Cavaliers?
This issue has been hotly discussed on the Internet three days ago!

At the home court of the Warriors, they will welcome the Cavaliers, the strongest opponent in the Eastern Conference this season!

The Cavaliers currently have six fewer wins than the Warriors.

The Eastern Conference teams have not performed very well this season so far.

The Warriors have not arranged training in recent days, but the players have spontaneously come to train.They want to play a game with the Cavaliers too much!

The Cavaliers team still gives people a feeling that they are not running enough, but they will adjust in time for the playoffs.

The characteristic of their play this season is still that they performed very well on the defensive end. The player James is simply a nightmare for many teams.

But the entire Warriors team is a league-wide nightmare.
The contradiction between the two sides is very clear now, one side has strong offensive ability, and the other side has good defensive ability.

Soon the media also pointed out in the pre-match article that this is a "spear" and "shield" dispute in the league!Because James is very eager to win the championship!
So his performance this season is even better!

Compared with last season, their performance is much better.

The teams in the East, the Celtics and Raptors are currently performing very well!The record of the Hornets is also rising significantly!

Ever since Li Feng passed the level of the primary confrontation training match in his system, the feeling is really different from before!

It's not simply improving strength, but a different feeling from the previous one when playing against teammates in the team.

If this season ends.Li Feng goes back and compares himself with his last season, and he will find that he has indeed made a qualitative leap from himself in his first year in the NBA!
Green: "I don't know what that kid Wharton is thinking! Is there something wrong with his head? Why are you playing against a team like the Cavaliers? At least some warm-up training?"

At this moment, Chasing Meng walked over relaxed.

Curry: "He is also an acting head coach now. It is over under the command of the team. But he is still capable. Otherwise, he would not be in this position.

The strength of our team can already compete with the coaching staff.We all need to find a balance.

We can play well without a coach.without us"

Green: "Without us, the team can't play~"

At this point Wharton sneezed a few more times.After recovering a bit, stand up from the chair.

Go to the window and open the window.The cool wind hit, Wharton sobered up a lot.

After discussing with the teaching assistants for several hours, the tactics in my mind have basically taken shape.

Facing a team of comparable strength, sometimes any tactics will be greatly reduced in effectiveness.

That's something Walton has known since he was a player.The Cavaliers performed well, and they can completely encircle the Warriors.

If they don't play well, they'll be briquetted by the Warriors
Basically these two results.

Unlike the Celtics and Lakers finals battles in previous years, the two strong teams have become very distinct in their playstyles.

Li Feng still strengthened his pit training when training with the team these days.

Wharton: "At the beginning of the game, you must play strictly according to my requirements. If you can't start the situation, you will be adjusting at that time."

Seeing Green's disdainful expression, Wharton endured him pretending not to see it, and walked back by himself after speaking.

Today's starting players for the Cavaliers are Love, Channing, James, Irving and Matthew!

The Warriors are Varejao, Green, Barnes, Li Feng and Curry!
Varejao has been very silent for the past few days. When he welcomes his last employer, he will inevitably feel a little turbulent in his heart.

In a few years, I actually joined a popular team competing for the championship.And this season the team management has made it clear that Varejao will be the main force.

Seeing James and the others, Varejao also felt "extremely jealous"!

Generally, players who play in the league and are "abandoned" by the team will have a more or less sense of loss or anger in their hearts.

What was lost was that they were eliminated by the team, and what was angry was that they did not see their own value.

In sports, if you register as an athlete, it is not difficult to meet the corresponding side requirements.

There is no pressure to aim for this.

But if you want to become a player in the NBA and gain a foothold in a team, it is still too difficult.After all, there are only a few places.

The two teams met with anger at this time.

Because the Warriors got Li Feng, there is nothing left.But if the Cavaliers won the Milwaukee Bucks last season, they would be the championship!

But in the end it was defeated by the Bucks with Li Feng!

This kid actually took a ride to the Warriors this season!
Same as last season, Li Feng's game on the court is still not regular, and he is a player with a flexible mind on the court.

Owen: "I'm going to guard Li Feng? Looking at his recent games, it seems that this player has become difficult to deal with."

James: "It's overkill. Matthew goes to deal with Li Feng, and you just need to watch Curry. You don't have to attack, but you can't let Curry score too much!

The Warriors' style of play has become more and more complicated this season, as long as we pay more attention to the defensive end, we can beat them."

At the beginning of the game, Varejao took the lead to get the basketball, and then Curry directly faced Irving after receiving his pass.

Barnes made a jump shot after receiving the pass, but James picked it off directly in the air!

After Owen got the ball, he immediately hit the ground and passed it to Matthew. The latter and Li Feng were facing each other, but he was surprised to find that Li Feng's muscles had thickened again!

James: "What are you dawdling about? Get points quickly! Hello? What's going on?!"

Matthew was cut off within a few seconds in front of Li Feng!
Then Li Feng ran towards James with the ball alone in the frontcourt, but in the end he didn't choose to shoot, nor did he choose to pass the ball to Green behind LeBron.

Curry hit a three-pointer after receiving the ball behind Li Feng!
Matthew: "Li Feng's physical fitness has indeed improved. I will pay attention next time"

From LeBron's questioning eyes, Matthew said to him a little nervously.

This time Irving and James exchanged a few words, and finally passed the ball to LeBron.

Green and Barnes switched defenses, and in the end James staggered the dream and scored directly with a dunk!

Li Feng watched Matthew dribble past, and the players who had to hide before now had the confidence to face it!

From the start of the game to now, the teams on both sides have played very cautiously!
It didn't take long for Varejao and James to quarrel with each other.

Irving had no intention of getting involved in the grievances between the two, and directly passed Curry, Li Feng and Barnes made a three-pointer!
The two teams seem to have entered a delicate state at this time.

Just like a long-distance running race, it is best for the team members to run together for most of the race.

In this way, everyone will not feel too tired mentally and physically.

It's the last lap of the race when it's time to widen the distance.

The arrival of Love really had a great impact on the Cavaliers that year.

Many players directly retreated to the second line, and Varejao even left the Cavaliers.

James took the basketball, and he had an idea in his mind at this time.

The Warriors team may make a sudden effort in the later stage, and the balance of the game will be broken immediately.

The opponent keeps shooting three-pointers, but if they can't keep up with the opponent's rhythm, isn't it the same as losing?

In this case, let's lead the Warriors by some points first.

The difference in leading points does not need to be too large, just a lead of 6-10 points will do!Because if the point difference is too large, the Warriors will inevitably start chasing points frantically.

Even their Cavaliers are afraid of the Warriors' three-point rain.

James: "Irving! I'll organize the game. You and your teammates score more points! But don't widen the gap too much"

Owen: "Why"

James: "I'll tell you after the game"

Owen: "Oh"

Speaking of basketball, it was passed to LeBron.The Warriors are watching it all.

Soon Matthews got the basketball, and then immediately passed the ball to Love, who immediately threw the ball to score!
James: "Referees, pay attention. Varejao likes to dive!"

Varejao: "Today I won't show you flopping. When did I flop?!"

The referee showed a puzzled smile at this time, and walked over without saying anything.

James: "You'd better not dive in front of me, or you'll be finished if I can't pass you!
The referee has been vaccinated!Just wait to lose, you guys! "

Varejao: "It's not certain who will lose in the end!"

The two quarreled again on the field.

The two of them feel like a young couple arguing to the two teams at this time
It's not the kind of deep hatred, but it's just that they don't like each other.

If the two teams usually play games and don't like each other, there is basically a possibility of conflict.

But watching the two of them quarrel, there is a feeling that they can't fight at all.

Li Feng passed the opponent again at Matthew this time, and then directly missed a three-pointer.

At this time, the head coach of the Cavaliers has paid attention.

This Matthew couldn't guard against Li Feng.

Li Feng: "Huh?"

The ball just now was unguarded. It stands to reason that it should be stable.

After James received the ball, just after halftime, he passed the opponent directly in the face of Green and then dunked and scored!
At this time, Curry also found that the Cavaliers were going to widen the point difference. After receiving Li Feng's pass, he staggered the distance under Irving's defense and hit a three-pointer!
9:8!The head coach of the Cavaliers called for the first timeout of the game.

Smith: "Shouldn't you? You can't guard against Li Feng, a simple player?"

Matthew: "As I said, Li Feng has changed. He has become stronger."

Smith: "I think you have become weaker?"

At this time, Coach Lu, who had just taken office, just quietly watched his players talking there.

This season, Tyronn Lue has been promoted from the Cavaliers' chief assistant to the team's head coach!

He learned a lot from David, such as passing the ball to James at critical moments, which is very effective!
Lu: "That Smith went up to check on Li Feng. His role in the game should not be underestimated. For the rest of the time, pay attention to where James is, and pass the ball to him when allowed."

Wharton: "If you can hold the opponent in the early stage, play a triangle offensive tactic. If you can't hold back, just bombard the whole court and switch offense and defense."

The Warriors players felt a little more comfortable seeing Wharton's serious expression at this time.

The coach was basically absent-minded in the previous game.

Gives an unprofessional feel.

One or two games is okay, but Green and other Warriors players are a little dissatisfied with him after several consecutive games.

But this game is no small matter for Walton.Because the Cavaliers are no ordinary team now.

Although they did not win the championship last season, they are still strong contenders this season!
Smith's brain was short-circuited at the final championship moment of last season, and now some of his key balls are not handed over to him.

But in the usual games, I have to say that JR Smith's personal combat power is indeed very strong!There is confrontation and shooting accuracy!

After the game came back, the Warriors' style of play was no longer a simple offensive and defensive switching style, but freely switched according to the performance of the Cavaliers!

The advantage of this is that no matter how the Cavaliers change, the Warriors don't have to pause and make adjustments immediately.

Unless there are frequent situations where players are suppressed, such as Matthew just now.
When Smith passed by Li Feng, he really felt the changes in this Asian player.But he didn't think much, and then passed the player and scored a jumper!
Curry quietly dribbled the ball to the frontcourt, and the Warriors switched to a triangle offense.

Space apart all players on the field!But the Cavaliers still maintain a fast double-team style of play.

Li Feng faced Smith after receiving the ball, and the two entangled for almost 15 seconds, but no one came to double-team Li Feng.

Because the Cavaliers feel that it is completely unnecessary.

But a surprising scene appeared!Li Feng finally got rid of Smith's defense, and then shot a three-pointer at a 0-degree angle and still missed!

The balance of ability?
After Li Feng improved in confrontation, his shooting accuracy seemed to decline.

Green got the rebound and passed the ball to Curry. Curry didn't get it well, and the basketball was cut off by Irving!

LeBron directly catches the ball and rushes over, scoring a Tomahawk dunk!

At this time, the Cavaliers have successfully expanded the lead to 5 points!

Curry: "Don't pass the ball to me. Give it to Li Feng. Li Feng, you organize the team, we are now focusing on offensive and defensive transition tactics!"

After receiving the basketball, Li Feng, who was blocked by the strong Smith in the backcourt, passed the ball to Green at 6 seconds into the round.

Curry directly caught the ball and made a three-pointer to hit the basket!

James got the basketball right away, and Curry told his teammates not to deliberately guard James at this time, because he noticed that LeBron is basically organizing the game by doing this now.

As long as the Warriors grab a rebound or his teammates can't start the situation, James will come forward.

Sure enough, the basketball passed to Irving, and in the end Irving hit the iron with a three-pointer. After Green got the basketball, he directly passed the ball to Li Feng!
When Curry went to the frontcourt and saw Li Feng dribbling but not shooting, he smiled warmly.

At this time, the Cavaliers had no time to return to defense, and the Warriors' offensive and defensive conversion speed suddenly increased.

Curry got a pass from Li Feng on the other side, and the three-pointer dropped to the basket amidst the cheers of the Warriors fans at the scene.
