Chapter eight hundred and forty first: opening small climax

The beautiful cooperation between Angel and Iguodala made the fans of Moda Center finally feel proud. In the past few days, the whole world has been against the Trail Blazers, but the Trail Blazers have not shown up for a long time.

Unexpectedly, this appearance gave the Cavaliers a big surprise. Anjie told everyone with his actual actions that even without Lillard and George, choosing to double-team himself is not an effective choice. And Iguodala used that wonderful tomahawk-like buckle to shout at everyone: "I'm not old yet!"

"Whether it was An's pass or Iguodala's final dunk, the offense was completed very well this time. We can see that An could complete the assist in almost an instant. The Trail Blazers' tactics are very exquisite. If the Cavaliers want to completely curb the Trail Blazers' offense, they can't just look at An An." Although Jeff Van Gundy praised the Trail Blazers' tactics, most people simply disagree with the ball just now.

In basketball, no matter how big the gap in strength between the two sides is, it is impossible to limit one side to not score a goal. It is understandable that the Trail Blazers scored a goal with energy. But what is important is whether they can maintain such performance under the subsequent fierce suppression of the Cavaliers.

Isaiah Thomas, who once knew Angel in the Drew League, is now wearing the Cavaliers jersey and controlling the ball and advancing.

An Jie didn't expect that this kid, who was less than 1.8 meters tall, could really gain a foothold in the NBA league and become a star-level player.

Facing Napier's defense, Thomas Jr. is not timid. Although he is only 1.75 meters tall, this guy's body is very strong.

Several times Napier wanted to block Thomas's route, but was squeezed away by this short and strong guy. Unconsciously, Thomas had already steadily moved the ball out of the three-point line, while Sabaz Napier, who was the defensive side, was gasping for breath.

Thomas Jr. did not rush to attack, but observed his teammates' running positions. Compared with the Trail Blazers, the Cavaliers have more offensive points and more comprehensive attacks on the court.

The cross-run between Wade and James made the Trail Blazers fans feel a little worried. Fortunately, the switch between Iguodala and Evan Turner was very tacit. They did not give James and Wade any space. They had practiced these situations countless times as early as the closed training.

Although he did not run out of the open space, when he saw the defender changing from Iguodala to Evan Turner, James raised his hand confidently at Thomas Jr.

As a swingman in the second and third positions, Turner's slightly thin body looks one number smaller than James.

Turner proved that he was not just "looking" one number smaller than James. The gap in strength between the two was as huge as it was on the surface.

After James changed hands and changed direction, he forced a breakthrough. Turner effortlessly judged the right direction of James' breakthrough, but when he had contact with James, he realized that even if he judged the right direction, it would be difficult for James to advance.

James' strong body and huge strength made Turner retreat step by step. The Cavalier's No. 23 almost completed the breakthrough in a crushing manner and easily entered the inside.

At this time, Angel had been pulled to the outsole corner of the three-point line by Love. Morris, Morris was entangled with Tristan Thompson. It seemed that as long as James could suppress Turner and complete a layup, the Cavaliers' two-pointer would be able to capture it!

Without thinking too much, James glanced at the three-point line and confirmed that Anger had not come back to make up for defense, he immediately jumped, as if Turner was in a mess of air.

Turner wanted to stop James, but he was squeezed out by James. James could not get up at all. James straightened his arm, and Turner's obstruction was not painful to him. As long as he could put the basketball in the box, this attack would be considered!

"Ah! Bastard!" Just as James just dropped the ball, a huge roar came into James's ears.

James was so scared that he quickly looked outside the three-point line. Anjie was still there!? Could it be...

"Bang!" The basketball was slammed away by a big hand, and the next second, James was knocked to the ground by a huge force.

After landing, Morris did not stop, but flew directly. He rushed to the audience without fear, stretched out his hand, and rescued the basketball that was blown away by himself back to the field!

Anjie hurriedly took the basketball before everyone and then made a long pass in the backcourt. Iguodala had already run towards the frontcourt, and Anjie's accurate long pass gave Iguodala an opportunity to face an empty basket.

Iguodala did not disappoint the efforts of Morris and Angel. He dunked hard with both hands, raging the basket again, and once again made the fans and commentators from all over the world exclaim!

Seeing that Iguodala successfully scored the ball, Angel immediately turned around and "snatched" Morris out of the audience.

"Good defense!" Anjie slapped Morris' chest hard. James might have beaten to death and never expected that he would fall under Morris in such a mess. Otherwise, how could Anjie feel at ease to follow Love out?

"Fuck! You look down on the Trail Blazers!" Morris himself shouted loudly because of his extreme excitement. He didn't look like someone who had just fallen into the audience.

"This defensive counterattack is simply great! LeBron may have forgotten that Andrew Morris, he is also a frame-protecting beast that cannot be ignored! Although Ann is not in the penalty area for the time being, his good brother will definitely help him take a good look at the penalty area!" Mike Brin did not expect Morris to make such a brave defense and slap James away with the ball. This seems to be something only Anger can do. However, now, the Trail Blazers have the second guy who can do this.

Ricard couldn't help but smile when he saw the players' performance on the court. On the offensive end, the Trail Blazers' firepower will indeed be greatly reduced by the absence of Lillard and Paul George. But on the defensive end, especially in the penalty area defense, if the Cavaliers want to try it, they can try it!

In the past few days of closed training, Ricard is not just practicing offense. Ricard has also made corresponding arrangements for the defensive strategies of James and others. If the offense is not enough, defense will be used to make up for it. We cannot score points, and you, LeBron James, don’t think you can score easily!

"That's a foul, sir." James got up from the ground and rubbed his knees that were still a little painful. He didn't expect that Morris' defense would be so fierce, even more fierce than Angel.

James did not shout at the referee, but complained to the referee in a joke tone. But in fact, this guy was already furious!

Morris doesn't care about that much. As long as he can prevent the opponent from scoring, it will be an excellent defense for him. Whether you have been violated or not has to be decided by the referee.

At the beginning, the Trail Blazers played the Cavaliers with an extremely exciting performance. Moreover, neither of these two balls came from Angel. People say that after losing Lillard and George, Angel will be the only offensive point for the Trail Blazers. But now, this sentence is simply nonsense.

The Cavaliers made the second attack, relying on Thomas Jr.'s beautiful emergency stop jump shot, and the James Legion finally broke the embarrassment of being unable to score.

However, everyone in the Cavaliers has not been happy for a long time. Evan Turner's three-pointer completely wiped out their gas fighting spirit just now.

Iguodala still controls the ball, and Anjie still wants the ball behind the free throw line. Unlike in the past, Anjie did not hold the ball and start the game by himself, but used an extremely fast pass to transfer the basketball to the outside.

It took less than a second for Anjie to catch the ball to pass. Everyone was surprised how this guy judged his teammate's running position in such a short time.

In fact, Anjie naturally couldn't react with his naked eyes. But in his heart, this guy knew Turner's running position well. Those few days of crazy training have made Anjie the brain of this perfect machine.

Because Iguodala had two extremely morale dunks at the beginning, Turner also showed confidence at this moment. Although Dwyane Wade rushed towards him with a fierce momentum, Turner was not timid at all and took action directly! Anjie passed the good ball for him, and Turner said that nothing could disappoint Anjie!

The hand started, the knife fell. This 10-year draft second, which had only appeared as a substitute before George was injured and had gradually faded out of people's sight. With a fatal three-pointer, everyone remembered his name again!

"Evan Turner! He made a beautiful three-pointer! His move was very stable, and he was not in a hurry to face Wade's pursuit!"

Wade, who was eager to equalize the score, was about to use a layup to fight back after breaking through Turner. Even if he couldn't score, he hoped to make Morris a foul.

However, Wade did not expect that Morris, who is violent in character, is very delicate in defense. This guy's neat blocking made Wade empty-handed. No scores or fouls. Some are just another blocking data for Morris.

This time, the Cavaliers' defense was very fast. Without George and Lillard, the Trail Blazers' conversion and offense would definitely not be able to reach the previous level.

Helplessly, Iguodala had to surrender and fight a position with the Cavaliers.

This time, Anjie did not continue to mention the high position, but instead pressed Love and raised his hand to ask for the ball at the edge of the three-second zone.

Love pushed forward with great force, hoping to push his mortal enemy away from the basket. However, just like all the confrontations between the two before, An Jie was unmoved at all in the face of Love's push.

Iguodala was skillful, and Anjie's big hand was like a suction cup, steadily "sucking" the ball.

Everyone in the Cavaliers was nervous. No one of them dared to go forward to double-team. It was difficult enough to just keep up with their own matchup and make An Jie unable to pass the ball.

Everyone was wondering whether the target of Anjie's passing this time would be his own match. At this suffocating juncture, Anjie suddenly retreated and turned around to the frame, and then jumped directly!

Love didn't expect An Jie to attack suddenly. After all, he has made good goals three times in a row, and he has a high chance of continuing to pass the ball.

But An Jie was not the case. He was the well-deserved number one in the league. When he wanted to score, few people could stop him! What's more, because of hesitation, Love's defense was still half a beat slower.

Anjie's signature backward turn and step-dive jump shot, and basketball also entered the net without any suspense. How rich can a center attack method be? Anjie gave the world an answer.

This goal also turned the score on the court into 9-2. Unlike expected, the side that took the lead was not the starry Cavaliers, but the Portland Trail Blazers with a broken lineup!

Tyron Lu immediately called a timeout, which came earlier than everyone thought. Ricard excitedly clapped the players who ended the field one by one because their performance was so satisfying.

Looking at Tyron Lu's panicked eyes, the Trail Blazers' performance must have completely matched the guy's expectations.

Don't panic, man. The changes in the Trail Blazers are just showing a corner...
Chapter completed!
