NBA: I am the card dealer

Chapter 197: King James is so powerful that he leads the team as a substitute!

The anger in my big Zhan Huang's eyes seems to burst out of my eyes, full of hostility, like a berserk monster, captivating people's hearts and souls...

but……

I, Emperor James, just stared at him, but he didn't move.

That's right.

Didn't even move.

It was JR Smith who rushed forward first, looking like a newborn calf.

PJ Tucker and Ibaka also rushed forward.

The two sides confronted each other, and it seemed that they were about to explode.

Fortunately, Love reacted quickly and hugged JR Smith immediately.

But JR Smith was still not convinced and kept yelling about what he wanted to do.

However, James calmed down and gave Xue Liancheng a cold look. Then, when the referee pushed him away, he turned and walked to the other side.

Xue Liancheng took out his braces and bit them, looking at them coldly and sneering in his heart.

Pretending...

Make it look like it's real...

In fact, he had long expected that James would not dare to do anything at all.

During the last Christmas game, he provoked James James like that, but James didn't even dare to fart.

With his "clean and spotless" nature, he forced Lai Lai to come forward and challenge him. Isn't this just pretentious?

So he was not worried at all that James would take action.

because he knows...

It is impossible for me, the big Zhan Huang, to conflict with others, and I don't know whether the big Zhan Huang is protecting his image or is really timid by nature.

Anyway, no matter what the reason is, at this point, he ate my big James to death, and looked at me like a joke.

To be honest...

James really took action, and he even looked up at James.

He despised such pretentious gestures from the bottom of his heart.

I was forced to do it, but there was no actual action.

Then he will naturally make fun of me and make me, Emperor James, lose face.

Really...

As he said, the crybaby would have exploded if it had been someone else, but in the end, I, James, could still endure it.

It’s really hard to endure what others can’t!

of course.

If I, Emperor James, really take action, who else will be embarrassed?

in contrast.

JR Smith, this old boy, really did that.

He had no doubts about that.

Because JR Smith is a famous thorn in the side, he is all kinds of arrogant and provokes all kinds of troubles. The instigator of the famous Madison Garden Square brawl was Smith.

There are also things such as bullying young players by chokehold, speeding five times in just eight months, pushing and shoving with teammates in training games, etc.

The troublemaker on and off the field is completely reckless and is like a ticking time bomb that may explode at any time.

Like just now, if Le Fu didn't stop him, he would really be able to do it.

O'Neal commented: "With three consecutive misses, LeBron's mentality is a bit unbalanced."

Barkley: "It is true that there is something wrong with his mentality, but I always believe that LeBron can adjust. But what I am more curious about is, what did Xue Liancheng say to make LeBron furious?"

O'Neal laughed: "Actually, I'm also very curious. LeBron is a very calm person and can make him so angry. So Xue Liancheng said some very interesting things."

Barkley was also interested: "When interviewing after the game, remember to ask him."

The audience on the sidelines booed loudly.

I don't know if I'm booing James, or booing Xue Liancheng's madness.

It was booed anyway.

Most likely it's the latter.

The two sides calmed down for a moment.

The game starts again.

Because it was stopped in time and no conflict really broke out, the referee did not give a technical foul.

Xue Liancheng stepped to the free throw line.

Steady extra penalty hits.

This time.

James did not fight hard, but wandered around first, and then used JR Smith as a wall cover to suddenly rush in.

The speed is very ferocious.

Gasol had to press up a little early.

At this time, JR Smith also inserted from the other side.

James passed it directly.

JR Smith made a mid-range pull-up jumper.

There was a clang.

Still forging iron.

but.

Mozgov stuck in position and got the rebound.

Facing the double-sided attack of Gasol Jr. and Ibaka, Mozgov did not dare to rise again, but threw the ball out.

After Owen catches the ball.

Just pull it up and throw it.

Three points!

The Knights finally opened.

Look back.

Xue Liancheng advanced quickly.

It's still Irving's lead defense.

He was quite surprised.

But when I think about it, it seems reasonable.

In the last game, the Spurs defended him throughout the game and even used an early double attack, but in the end they lost by 20 points.

That shows that such a defensive strategy does not work.

So……

It is naturally impossible for other teams to follow suit.

During the Christmas game, the Cavaliers also adopted the same defensive tactics of strangling him, and they lost miserably.

and so.

this match.

Cavaliers head coach Blatt's defensive strategy is to guard others tightly, cut off the connection between him and his teammates, and strangle his passing threat.

In short, it’s just to see if you can kill me by yourself?

Such a change does require a certain amount of courage.

but.

There is still some effect.

Anyway, Xue Liancheng felt quite unaccustomed to it and quite uncomfortable.

His consistent style is a combination of passing and attacking.

He just takes advantage of the dynamic eye in his mind to create opportunities for his teammates and break down the opponent's defense.

Pass the ball.

Always put him first.

Then when you want to attack, it will become much easier.

Because he can freely switch between passing and attacking according to the situation on the spot.

The greater his passing threat, the more off-guard he will be when he attacks.

There are many times when the opposing defensive player subconsciously thinks that he will pass the ball, but he ends up throwing it.

In this case, his shooting space will become larger, and his shooting rate will naturally be higher.

That's one reason why he's incredibly efficient.

Now his passing is blocked all of a sudden. It's strange that he can get used to it.

Blocking his passing route not only destroyed the clairvoyance in his mind, but also destroyed most of his predictive ability.

Now that it was past half-court, he observed for a long time, but he couldn't find any teammates who had a chance.

The Cavaliers followed closely. When it was time to switch defenses, they immediately switched defenses, and when it was time to chase after them, they clung on.

resignedly.

Xue Liancheng could only choose to attack by force.

Owen still tried his best to hang on to him as always.

But the difference in weight and strength between the two sides was too big. No surprise, he pushed all the way to the basket.

Did not encounter any decent defense.

European literature is smarter this time.

The whole person pressed forward, trying to use physical contact to prevent him from taking off so smoothly.

But Xue Liancheng's finishing at the basket is not just about taking shots under confrontation.

He still has steps.

After braking.

Then turn around and pull back.

Then step forward again.

Then raise your hand and click.

Make sure Owen leans over.

He turned around calmly, squeezed through with a low body, and got into position.

Easy basket picking.

Come in again!

O'Neill: "At present, the Cavaliers' defensive strategy is to let Irving defend Xue Liancheng one-on-one, and there is no plan to attack or assist in the defense. In this case, Xue Liancheng's data will definitely be very good."

Barkley: "Xue Liancheng's footsteps are very flexible, and his finishing ability at the basket is still outstanding. However...can he really kill someone with his own offense?"

This question is not unfounded.

Generally speaking, even if you have an advantage in the matchup, it is impossible to score every goal.

There are many factors to consider, such as physical fitness! What a state! It feels great! Interference effect! And the ability to adjust yourself, etc...

Why can't some players make empty baskets?

The reason is here.

When your physical fitness is insufficient, it will affect your bounce, your explosive power, your release point, your wrist strength, your strength, your ball feel, etc.

In the end, it may be because you didn't jump high enough and the release point was not in his comfort zone, causing the ball to miss the board.

And these things, even a slight difference can make them go a long way.

This is just a matter of physical fitness, what about other factors?

and so.

Don't look at Xue Liancheng's efficiency now, scoring several goals in a row.

Once physical fitness declines, blacksmithing will follow.

At this time, it is time to test your ability to adjust.

Or when you are out of shape, your vision, your nerves, your reaction, your strength, wrist flexibility, etc. will all deviate to a certain extent, causing his shooting to be less accurate.

In this case, it also depends on your ability to adjust.

And today's game.

Xue Liancheng felt pretty good, and his hand style was relatively smooth.

Although Irving's defense did not effectively interfere with him, it was not that huge.

But there definitely is.

If you have someone standing in front of you, even if you don't move, you will sometimes lose your sense of direction, and you may get bumped on the neck.

What's more, Irving still tried his best to defend, which still had a certain impact on him.

It is basically difficult to maintain a high shooting percentage for an entire game.

Unless your condition, physical fitness, touch, and emotions are all excellent, and you feel that the basket is as wide as the ocean and you can shoot no matter how hard you try, then you are a sure winner in this game.

This is the reason why many superstars have only scored 50+ points in more than a thousand games in their careers.

This requires you to be in an incredible state.

To put it another way, the same team and the same defensive player will perform very differently in another game.

This game you scored 50+ points, but in the next game you may even struggle to score 15 points.

It is self-evident that it is very difficult for one person to overthrow a team.

In other words.

The Cavaliers are also using the regular season to explore the Heat's weaknesses, that is, Xue Liancheng's weaknesses, in order to prepare for the playoffs.

It coincides with the Heat's idea.

Both sides see each other as their biggest rivals this season.

However, in this game, the Cavaliers tried to cut off Xue Liancheng's passing threat.

The Heat, on the other hand, still adopt a defensive strategy of hunting down LeBron James.

Look back.

James tried another pick-and-roll breakthrough.

but.

The object of the pick-and-roll was replaced by JR-Smith.

It suddenly went in.

Chong also rushed up.

Ok……

It can only be said that it is half done.

Facing Gasol, Ibaka, and Xue Liancheng, the tripod sank into the penalty area, compressing James' breakthrough space.

James did not choose to force it, but instead passed back to J.R. Smith. Maybe three consecutive irons made me, James, a little bit unable to let go.

after all……

For 19 pieces of fine iron in the last game, I, James, have been criticized for a whole month, and the voices of ridicule are overwhelming.

This would open the trifecta, which undoubtedly left James in awe.

Smith received the ball, completed a pick-and-roll with Love from the other side, and then broke out.

Attract the defense's attention and then pass back.

Love made a two-point step inside the three-point line on the wing.

Come in too!

Although James did not successfully hit the basket this time, he still successfully disrupted the Heat's defensive formation.

Next.

Both sides implemented their own offensive and defensive tactics.

Both Xue Liancheng and James felt uncomfortable.

Xue Liancheng wanted to use the breakthrough to tear the Cavaliers' defense and create space for his teammates, but the Cavaliers ignored him from the beginning to the end and let him start a solo show.

He also tried to get his teammates to play out of position, or Gasol to provide support from the top of the arc, but the effect was not as good as his own attack.

In the end, I didn’t even try it and just did it myself.

James was guarded by PJ Tucker throughout the game and maintained high-intensity physical contact.

When he wanted to break through and rush forward, the Heat players always guarded against breakthroughs but not shots. In addition, with Gasol guarding him and Ibaka assisting in defense, the penalty area was constantly squeezed, and James had little personal performance.

But the situation of the Cavaliers is exactly the opposite of that of the Heat. Irving, Love, J.R. Smith, and Mozgov all have good offensive space and have made many good shots.

It lasted until 6 minutes and 16 seconds.

Irving assisted JR Smith for a corner three-pointer, and the official timeout occurred.

When coming up again.

Xue Liancheng was stunned for a moment.

What is the situation?

My big James is gone?

Subconsciously glanced, I saw James sitting on the bench, rolling his dead fish eyes, and constantly wiping sweat.

Only then did he confirm that James took a break and was replaced by Shumpert.

For a moment, he wondered if my big Zhan Huang was injured?

but……

He quickly rejected it.

Because of the way James looks now, there is no sign of injury.

So……

There is only one possibility left.

That is staggered playing time.

purpose?

Naturally, avoid the encirclement and suppression of the trio of PJ-Tucker, Gasol Jr., and Ibaka.

I blanch...

Is this the solution I, Emperor James, come up with when faced with a difficult situation?

Isn’t it too incredible?

The first man in the league to lead the team as a substitute...

Ah……

Tell the truth.

For a moment, Xue Liancheng almost laughed out loud.

Really are……

It is a strange story for thousands of years and a strange phenomenon for thousands of years. The first person in the alliance actually chooses to avoid the edge and lead a group of ring characters to fight and kill in the substitute time.

Speaking of which, it's really hilarious.

But it seems like this isn't the first time James has done this.

only.

It was the first time Xue Liancheng saw him that he was shocked and found it a bit incredible.

The game continues.

There are still goings-on between the two sides.

During a dead ball time, Spoelstra also replaced PJ Tucker.

Obviously.

The idea of ​​​​the old mentor is to let Tucker crucify me, Emperor James.

Such an approach is undoubtedly wise.

When the game came to 3 minutes and 22 seconds.

As expected, I, Emperor James, are here again.

The idea was verified, and Xue Liancheng was really amused.

As expected of me, Emperor James.

Able to bend and stretch, he is truly a man...

In fact, there is nothing wrong with doing this in a strict sense.

After all, no one stipulates when the main core needs to play and when it cannot play.

That kind of dual-core driven team will choose a period of time to avoid the overlap of dual-core playing time.

One of the goals is naturally Tian Ji's horse racing.

Only by finding advantages among disadvantages, making good use of your own strengths to deal with your opponent's weaknesses, and knowing how to exploit your strengths and avoid weaknesses, can you win.

The second purpose is the issue of ball possession.

There is only one ball, but both cores need to have the ball in their hands.

At this time, staggering the playing time can maximize the performance of the dual-core.

Xue Liancheng and Wade will also rotate at slightly different times.

But the difference is that when it came to the rotation time, Wade chose to rest first, and Xue Liancheng came to play the entire quarter.

At the beginning of the second quarter, Xue Liancheng took a rest and Wade took the lead.

But I, Big James, took a different approach.

The break started in the middle of the first quarter, and when it was time to rotate, he started playing.

If he guessed correctly.

At the beginning of the second quarter, I, Zhan, will definitely come on and continue to lead the bench to show off his power.

Doing this is obviously to avoid the opponent's main force.

If it's another person, I can't actually say anything.

But this is LeBron James!

The first person in the league!

This kind of operation is really surprising and makes people laugh.

Is this really what the first player in the league should do?

Strong defense, main players, and difficult situations are left to teammates to take care of them.

In the face of the role players and the opponents of the second team, I, Big Zhan Huang, are about to strike hard.

This is not what a league leader should look like!

Which era's superstar would do this?

Can Danzi know it?

Will the iron shell do it?

Will O'Neal?

Will Duncan?

Not even Wade, Durant, Curry, or even Xue Liancheng himself would do this.

How can you do that?

Isn't this shameless...

But that's what people do.

Although it is a bit ugly, there is nothing wrong with it. After all, the statistics after the game will not count how many points you scored in the second team, and how many points you scored in the main team.

The current lineup on the field has become:

Heat: Xue Liancheng, PJ Tucker, Ennis, Marcus Morris, Haslem.

Cavaliers: Irving, Shumpert, James, Shawn Marion, TT Thompson.

Ok……

That's right.

Owen is still there.

In other words, there is no stagger effect at all, and it is not to choose to let James rest for the purpose of maximizing the ball.

I, James, didn't play during that period just because I wanted to avoid the Heat's defensive triangle.

How special...

Simply magical...

The first ball that comes up.

James really wanted the ball, so he used Thompson's pick-and-roll and rushed in.

Without Gasol's frame protection and Ibaka's help, James once again performed what it means to be a god descending from heaven.

He directly faced Haslem and completed the tomahawk chop.

awesomeness……

And the whistle blew.

Still a 2+1.

After landing.

I, King James, pulled on his clothes, faced the camera, opened his bloody mouth, and screamed crazily.

Show the domineering side of me, James, to the fullest.

the end.

He also made a standard celebration gesture of pressing down his hands, trying his best to release the depression of most of the festival.

The scene was boiling.

They had been waiting for almost a whole section, and now they finally saw me, Emperor James, showing off his regal demeanor again, and of course they were very excited.

They watch football just to enjoy it.

I won't care about your second or third team nonsense.
