Chapter 657: If you choose, you will insist

Blatt's control over the Cavaliers is indeed a bit insufficient.

Before coming to the Cavaliers, the task he received was to cultivate newcomers and rebuild the Cleveland Cavaliers' tactical system and winning culture from scratch.

But I knew that so many things happened in the summer, the Cavaliers' goal quickly became a championship.

Blatt needs to transform from a team coach to a superstar nanny coach, which is certainly not easy for him.

James has always been a "self-owned system". He has a set of tactics he likes, which are most suitable and can play his role best.

This is a big difference between James and Li Liang.

When Blatt knew that Li Liang and James were both here, he was still very happy.

In David Blatt's heart, Li Liang can definitely become a perfect team player.

But in the end, Li Liang ran away, in return for Paul George. George was in the period of personal ability improvement, and the whole team only obeyed James and was not very concerned about the coach's tactical arrangements.

The Cavaliers played so badly in the early stage of the season, mainly because of the running-in issue. The focus of the running-in is whether the team is playing around the coach's tactical or the stars' abilities and is used to playing around.

The answer is obvious. Stars are the foundation of a team, not to mention that this is James.

In the first half, the Cavaliers and Pacers were equally divided, but because of the final substitution and defensive strategy issues, Li Liang scored a hit. At the end of the half, the Cavaliers were 9 points behind.

Randall was educated several goals by Li Liang in more than two minutes of playing. When he was off the court, he was terrible.

It was really numb. Two three-pointers were thrown on the head, stolen, and fouled.

Randall felt that he was on the court and Li Liang were not in the same dimension as him, as if he was a player from two worlds.

He is in the two-dimensional world, and Li Liang is in the three-dimensional world, and he stomped him down with one foot.

This guy Li Liang has bullied Kentucky alumni in the league for a day or two.

He coaxed and deceived Brother Davis in various ways, and made him foul. Every time he hit Li Liang's team, Cousins ​​didn't take a T or was sent out, and he felt that the game was in vain.

There are also Wall, Knight and others. In the summer of 2015, he would probably not be that easy for him to convene a Kentucky alumni training camp.

It's so bad.

Randall is now on the victim list, and he was cut eight points in more than two minutes, and he is in a bad mood.

During the intermission, Li Liang was only thinking about one thing, how could he explain it to Zhu Shu at that time?

He pays more attention to this matter than the game itself.

No matter what, let’s finish the game first, and then I’ll say it’s a collapse therapy.

At worst, I can kneel down for a while when I go home. What can this be called?

...

The halftime break ends and the second half begins.

At the beginning, Li Liang and McGee gave George Hill a double cover, and then Hill returned the ball and gave Li Liang.

Li Liang made a mid-range jump shot... but didn't make it...

Li Liang is a guy who can practice three points accurately, but the middle distance is not as accurate as three points.

He wants to make a accurate mid-range shot, and he must use [Cassel's Smile].

But this skill can only be used at critical moments.

When Bird saw Li Liang not getting in from the middle of the road, he thought that there was still something wrong with this guy.

Then, James held the ball on the offensive end and dribbled the ball to the horn position. He suddenly stopped and made a jump shot, but he didn't hit it.

The leading figures on both sides started with a blacksmith after the start of the third quarter, which seemed to indicate that neither side scored too high in the second half.

The Cavaliers' defense did not do well at the beginning of the season, so they often lost large scores, allowing their opponents to score more than 110 points.

After running-in and adjustment, the Cavaliers' defensive system with Paul George as the core is gradually being built.

The biggest feature of the Cavaliers' defense is also their consistent feature in the past, which is its heaviness.

The Cavaliers' starting lineup, insiders Massimmi and Thompson, have very strong protection ability at the basket.

James and George on the outside are two big forward players, who are very oppressive.

This is different from when James was at the Heat. The Heat's defense is extremely strong on the outside, but the reason is that their defense in the inside is very thin and they have to be strong on the outside.

Different from the Cavaliers, the Cavaliers have a thick inside line, which makes the Cavaliers' outside defense more resilient and more sustainable.

After the start of the third quarter, the Pacers' offense was lost under the Cavaliers' sudden increase in high-intensity defense.

On the contrary, the Cavaliers once again rely on Irving's sharp knife to chase points.

Now the Cavaliers are beginning to make the most of their personal abilities in the offense.

Various pick-and-roll and singles are aimed at Pacers' man-to-man defense.

And they were very careful when fighting - avoid Li Liang.

In order not to let Li Liang's assistant defense play a role, James also acted as a "bait" to lure Li Liang away.

Then he pulled away and let George and Irving play singles.

This move had a good effect. In the third quarter, the Knights beat the Pacers 12:5.

Halfway through the third quarter, the scores were very low, but the Cavaliers slowly made up the difference of 9 points to only 2 points.

Bird called a pause in the middle, but it did not have a good effect.

Both Granger and JR-Smith were lost to a certain extent on the offensive end and missed the consecutive three-point shooting.

Not to mention Li Liang, he was guarded by heavy troops, and Li Liang was very uncomfortable to be mobilized on the defensive end.

He really wanted to switch to Irving, who had already scored 8 points after the start of the third quarter.

But Irving just avoided Li Liang's play, and McGee changed his defense and he beat him a little.

Without changing defense, use speed and dribble to George Hill.

Hill's effect on defending Irving tonight was very average, and he felt that he was not in a very good state.

The score reached 64:62, and the Pacers were still two points ahead, and the game entered an official timeout.

In fact, the Cavaliers also think the game is difficult to play.

In the third quarter of the previous game, as long as the Cavaliers exert their strength on the defensive end, and Irving, George and James scored continuously on the offensive end, the score could be quickly opened.

But although the Pacers were pressed step by step, they could maintain the advantage of two or three points and press the Cavaliers into the water and unable to get out.

Under the Cavaliers' strict defense, Li Liang still hit a three-pointer.

Both sides felt that the opponent was powerful and difficult to deal with.

Both sides need to grit their teeth and persevere.

The Knight made an adjustment and replaced Masinmi with Mozgov.

The adjustment worked quickly. James broke through the middle and Mozgov took the lead. James threw a high throw to Mozgov. Mozgov made a dunk in the alley.

McGee made up for James this goal, but Mozgov missed it.

But we can't blame McGee, he just came to make up for the defense, and James killed the basket with a dunk.

Li Liang still couldn't keep up with James' footsteps.

The two sides tied at 64:64.

Then, cj-Miles made a three-pointer from the left, and the ball bounced twice on the basket, but unfortunately it didn't hit.

Li Liang tried hard to grab the frontcourt rebound, but the ball was still obtained by the Cavaliers.

James held the ball, but he still had the same way as before, and Mozgov came to pick-and-roll in the middle.

But this time Mozgov did not go astray and gave James the basket free.

James hit the basket and defended McGee, and made a dunk from apart!

McGee was hit by James, 64:66, the Cavaliers overtook!

For any center forward, being locked in this way is a shame.

McGee looked angry, and Li Liang came over and patted McGee, and asked, "Will you still choose to assist in defense later?"

McGee nodded, "Of course."

"That's good."

Li Liang immediately responded to the offensive end. After holding the ball from the outside, he used the skill of [Wanfo Chaozong] to worship Buddha and pass Paul George, and rushed into the basket and threw it to McGee. McGee scored a one-handed air relay dunk!

66:66, tie.

Immediately afterwards, James wanted to play the high pick-and-roll trick for the third time.

This time, Li Liang bypassed and held close to James, and launched the [Death Entanglement] the moment James entered the basket!

James froze, but because he started, he still protected the ball.

As a result, when he made a layup in the air, he was blown away by McGee, who was on the side defending, with a big hat!

cj-Miles got the ball and counterattacked quickly. Li Liang quickly stepped down from the middle and received a long pass from Miles.

Paul George was shaken away with a fake move at the basket, and Mozgov took off with another fake move, then turned around and passed the ball to McGee who followed up. McGee took the ball and jumped, and dunked with both hands!

McGee's continuous dunks, blocks, and dunks pushed the atmosphere of Consecco's stadium to a climax.

Li Liang and McGee clapped hard, and McGee said to Li Liang: "Bruce, I have an answer to the question just now!"

"What?"

"You ask me if I change the box or not, I tell you I won't change it. I care how much I get it. Once I choose, I will stick to it."
