Chapter 48: No Victory
LeBron's technical flaws are obvious, and his shooting ability is very urgent, especially the incredible poor level of outside shooting.
But it is undeniable that when LeBron James is on the court, the Cavaliers' offense and defense are more powerful, and the pressure on other players is greatly reduced.
The most intuitive feeling is that Qin Yang has more opportunities whether he is shooting or passing.
Other teammates got more opportunities, and Qin Yang had many good options for passing.
Most of the opposing defensive pressure is on LeBron James, and the rest of the Cavaliers are almost unstoppable as if they get a buff bonus.
In a single quarter, Qin Yang got 11 points and 3 assists.
He was 3-of-4 from three-point range and scored on an easy layup.
LeBron James got 8 points and 8 assists, leading the team to expand the score to 25+ in a single quarter, such a score is gone.
The Quick Loan Center was full of cheers.
LeBron James played for three minutes and begged to go down, the Cavaliers were completely playing on the bench, and Qin Yang was not difficult to play with the bench.
In the case of being all substitutes, Qin Yang easily showed what it means to abuse vegetables, passing, three-point shots, and even breakthroughs, Qin Yang performed very well.
The Raptors' bench did not narrow the score, but continued to expand.
In the end, the Cavaliers won the game 123-94.
After the game, the Cavaliers didn't celebrate at all, so they got on a plane and went to Philadelphia to challenge the 76ers, and in the next two games, the Cavaliers will play the 76ers on the road and at home.
The 76ers have an amazing record this season.
The former king of the 76ers, Allen Iverson, left because he could not make the playoffs, and the 76ers had to correct Allen Iverson's younger brother Iguodala.
The physical small forward has performed very well and is expected to make the playoffs this year.
Of course, the most embarrassing thing is that Allen Iverson has been tossing and turning between two teams, and his performance is getting worse and worse, and for a while, the doubt that Allen Iverson is a superstar or a cancer spread throughout the league.
But none of this has much to do with the Cavaliers.
After getting on the plane, Qin Yang quickly fell asleep.
This is a must-have quality for an NBA player.
In the virtual training hall, Qin Yang once again came to the game with the Raptors.
In this game, Qin Yang played very depressed.
After LeBron James went off the court, Qin Yang himself led the team as the core, but he couldn't bring it at all. Of course, there is the fact that Williams is in poor condition and pits his teammates, but as a point guard and core, he can't lead the ball emperor to win, which is the most humiliating thing.
The game begins.
Qin Yang chose to focus on singles in the first game. Without attracting the bag, Qin Yang mainly attacked by himself.
This is LeBron James's dismissal.
Qin Yang felt very uncomfortable when he was so big at the beginning.
The Raptors have already put their defensive focus on Qin Yang.
After the blocking, there are people to help defend, Anthony Parker, as a veteran driver of the league, is not bad defensively, at least he will not be out of position, and after entering the basket, Bosh's assistance defense is also in place.
Qin Yang was completely unable to attract the bag clip.
In this case, the Cavaliers are constantly falling behind.
Mid-range shooting is iron, and shooting efficiency from beyond the three-point line is good, but all teammates can't win when they see you playing alone.
Passing, there are not many opportunities, Mo Williams is constantly playing iron, as the team's nominal second leader, Mo Williams is in too poor form in this game.
In this way, Qin ** could not lead the team to victory.
The second time, Qin Yang chose to focus on one-pass and cut cooperation, and the situation of the Cavaliers was better, but the score was still relatively helpless, and the Cavaliers were killed by the Raptors.
The last time, Qin Yang made consecutive jumpers in the middle distance, hitting 2 of 10, and after a wave of streams, the Raptors took away the Cavaliers in a wave.
By the time I woke up, the team was in Philadelphia.
The team rested for half a day and went to recovery training.
Qin Yang had a straight face, with a depressed look on his face.
led the team by himself, and he couldn't even beat the Raptors, which was too cheating.
Of course, Qin Yang didn't realize that the player configuration of the Cavaliers was completely to match LeBron James's technical characteristics, and in essence, it didn't match Qin Yang.
What Qin Yang needs is a teammate who can defend on the inside, preferably with a little low-post offense, a blocker on the outside, and is very good at catching and shooting.
The Cavaliers didn't.
The only thing Qin Yang felt was that his strength was still too weak.
Keep training hard.
On the night of the 10th, the Cavaliers played the 76ers away.
The Cavaliers are still the starting five, while the 76ers start Iguodala, Elton Brand, Hellam Porter, Willie Green and Andre Miller.
In the first quarter, the Cavaliers began to attack.
LeBron James and Big Z's high-post blocking and dismantling are extremely sharp, Iguodala has a strong defense, and in terms of technical characteristics, it is just enough to restrain LeBron James's small forward.
But...... Useless.
Big Z is a block, LeBron goes straight to the basket, and Iguodala's defense is not so important.
LeBron James had 10 points, 2 rebounds and 2 assists in the first quarter, shooting 4-of-5 from the field, hitting a three-pointer and 1-of-1 from the free-throw line.
In terms of on-court performance and stats, LeBron's performance was flawless.
Couldn't have been better.
However, after the break after the first quarter, the Cavaliers trailed by three points at 25-28.
How did others perform poorly?
Mo Williams was 3 of 4, and the team's overall shooting percentage was over 5 percent, which was definitely not bad.
But it didn't work, the Cavaliers still lagged behind.
Qin Yang saw it clearly off the court, the 76ers are far stronger than they imagined, and the point guard Andre Miller is a very old player, but ...... It interprets the typical example of getting older and more demonic.
Facing Mo Williams, Andre Miller singled with his back, and Mo Williams was lustful to death.
With a 5-of-7 singles shooting percentage, Mo Williams' face darkened.
That's not all, while scoring 10 points in a single quarter, Andre Miller also handed out 6 assists, all 6 assists were given to Iguodala, Iguodala 6 air cut successes, almost all of them were close-range shots and dunks, and they couldn't be stopped at all. Another flaw in the Cavaliers has been exploited to the fullest.
LeBron James is a defensive flaw a lot of the time.
True, it's hard to understand, but it's true.
In every game, fans can see LeBron's chasing big hat, all kinds of helping teammates to help defend and fill positions, the defensive attitude is very positive, and the defensive strength is also very strong.
But...... LeBron James isn't very good at defending players who run and cut in the air.
In this case, Iguodala played very well.
Qin Yang played, and the Cavaliers lineup did not change much.
Under normal circumstances, when Qin Yang plays, Vallejo will also play, and the corresponding big Z will go down, but this game did not do so.
The Cavaliers' interior line is still a combination of Ben Wallace and Big Z.
