NBA’s aging star system

Seeing Irving hit such a difficult ball, the Cavaliers bench instantly boiled.

While celebrating wildly on the bench, Tyronn Lue and James also smiled.

If you want to defend your title this season, Irving's performance is really indispensable.

Owen clenched his fist hard, that's what it felt like.

The ball possession changed and it was the Warriors' turn to attack.

Su Tian sat off the court and watched Irving try his best to defend on the court.

Curry's smart movement made it impossible for Irving to catch the pattern. After a while, Curry ran out of an opportunity.

Green passed the ball in time, and Curry received the ball and shot a three-pointer directly.

Swah——

Curry hit a three-pointer directly, 50-59

Although Irving can provide considerable help to the Cavaliers on offense, he is not as useful as Su Tian on defense, Tyronn Lue thought to himself while watching the situation on the court.

The ball was transferred and it was the Cavaliers' turn to attack.

Irving came to the frontcourt with the ball, and James reached for the ball.

James still wants to catch up with the score in the third quarter, otherwise, the Warriors will not be so easy to mess with in the third quarter.

James got the ball and faced Iguodala.

The Warriors' lineup on the field at this time is Curry, Clay, Iguodala, Green, and Ezeli.

It’s considered the entire main lineup.

James called Mozgov to pick and roll, and used the pick and roll to break through inside.

Iguodala chased James, and Green came from the side to help defend, trying to block James' breakthrough.

But James was very determined to attack the inside, rushed to the basket with Green's help, and forced Green to cause a defensive foul.

James stood on the free throw line and made one of two free throws.

51-59 is still a drop in the bucket.

Turning around, the Warriors quickly served the ball. Green got the ball and advanced to the frontcourt. Curry and Clay continued to cross paths and disturb the defense.

Irving and Jr. only talk about defense, and they are not as good as the combination of Dellavedova and Su Tian.

Clay took advantage of Curry to attract the defense and ran into an open space, received a pass from Green, and shot a three-pointer directly.

Swah——

Clay's three-pointer is still very stable, of course, provided there is no interference from Su Tian.

51-62

The score difference reached 11 points, and Tyronn Lue raised his hand to call a timeout.

The Warriors were in such good shape in the third quarter that they would score three consecutive points, so they had to call a timeout to slow down.

Soon, the timeout ended and the game continued.

After returning to the court, James began to control the ball. Irving's condition still did not reassure James.

James continued to break through Iguodala's defense with the ball, and Green still helped defend against double teams, but this time Thompson was well prepared and cut to the basket.

James took the opportunity to pass the ball and accurately passed it to Thompson. Thompson received the ball and dunked directly.

53-62

This timeout was not called in vain.

Here the Warriors continue to serve quickly, and Green advances quickly with the ball.

This time, Curry used Ezeli's pick-and-roll to cut to the basket and create a chance.

Green passed the ball, and Curry was about to take a layup. James suddenly came to help defend. Curry's layup was interfered by James, and the basketball was forged.

Mozgov took advantage of the rebound and passed the ball to Irving.

Irving quickly advanced with the ball and wanted to make a fast break, but was blocked by Iguodala.

But if Iguodala blocks Irving, that means no one will follow James.

So Irving passed the ball to James who was moving forward on a fast break.

James received the ball and went straight to the basket. At this time, there was no one in front of James, so he collected the ball and took off.

boom--

There was a loud noise, and James succeeded in the dunk.

The audience at the scene fell silent instantly, and this dunk was like an away silencer.

55-62

Seeing that the point difference was about to catch up, the Warriors stopped playing around and began to speed up the offensive rhythm.

Curry used the screen to shoot a three-pointer directly. It seemed that Irving's hand was blocked in front of Curry, but Curry still hit the three-pointer.

55-65

The score difference came to 10 points again.

James shook his head slightly and took the ball back again.

In the next few rounds, the two teams were at a stalemate, and neither team could win.

Irving occasionally performed well, but not very efficiently.

At the end of the third quarter, the score had reached 74-84, and the Cavaliers trailed the Warriors by 10 points.

A 10-point difference is not small for two teams competing for the championship.

Tyronn Lue was very anxious on the sidelines, drawing back and forth with the tactical board.

However, they are obviously very conventional tactics.

In the end, Tyronn Lue decided on the lineup for the fourth quarter.

Dellavedova, Su Tian, ​​Iman Shumpert, Love, Thompson.

At the last moment, Tyronn Lue still believed more in defense.

Soon the fourth quarter began. The Warriors' main force fought too hard in the third quarter and it was impossible for the main force to continue to play.

The lineup is Livingston, Klay, Brandon Rush, Speights, and Bodog.

Obviously, the main output point is Clay.

The first possession of the fourth quarter was given to the Cavaliers.

Dellavedova came to the frontcourt with the ball and gave it to Su Tian.

Su Tian got the ball and immediately started calling Love for a pick-and-roll. It wasn't that Su Tian couldn't play in isolation, but it was unnecessary. The pick-and-roll success rate was higher.

Su Tian came out of the pick-and-roll, took two steps forward, and then took the shot.

Swah——

Su Tian hit the mid-range shot directly, ignoring Clay's defense.

76-84

Su Tian scored as soon as he came on, and James couldn't help but stand up and applaud.

The ball possession changed and it was the Warriors' turn to attack.

Livingston came to the frontcourt with the ball. Dellavedova knew his responsibilities well, so he pounced on Livingston and gave him enough physical confrontation.

Livingston had no choice but to turn his back to protect the ball and avoid being touched by Dellavedova.

Upon seeing this, Clay hurried forward to meet Livingston.

Although Clay successfully caught the ball, it was Su Tian's intention.

As we all know, Klay is a master of dribbling, comparable to Curry's dunk.

The famous ankle finisher, Klay Thompson.

After Su Tian saw Clay get the ball, he pounced directly on Clay.

Before Clay could hold the ball firmly, he withstood the impact of Su Tian's body and immediately began to stagger.

Su Tian saw the opportunity, struck quickly, and accurately stole the ball from Clay's hand.

After stealing the ball, Su Tian went straight to the frontcourt after getting the ball.

Clay turned around and chased after him, but he started too late and was not as fast as Su Tian.

Su Tian rushed to the basket with Juechen, collected the ball, and took off.

boom--

There was a crisp sound, and Su Tian dunked successfully.

78-84

Just two rounds into the fourth quarter, the point difference has already reached 6 points.

This scoring efficiency made James smile from ear to ear.
