Chapter XXVI: 18+10
As soon as LeBron James came on the court, the Cavaliers' tactics changed.
When LeBron wasn't on the court, the Cavaliers' tactics were more flexible. Qin Yang and other teammates pass and cut a lot, as long as other teammates run out of the opportunity, Qin Yang's pass will be the first to pass, and then teammates will execute the last attack.
The most obvious feeling is Mo Buchuan and Vallejo, Mo Buchuan has many opportunities to break fast and shoot in the open space, which is very rare.
Vallejo hit several times in the middle distance, and Qin Yang's pass was very timely.
Now that LeBron is on the court, the Cavaliers' tactics are very simple.
Vallejo covers LeBron, who runs straight to the basket and passes to a teammate in the open space outside if he encounters a bag, and the teammate completes the offense.
But in this way, the other players become more rigid and passive.
It's a hard thing to describe in words.
If you look at it from the court, it is LeBron who is performing alone, and everyone else is a supporting role. LeBron is a general or a commander, and the others are minions.
This kind of tactic cannot be less powerful.
But it's clumsy.
Qin Yang could clearly feel the changes in the team.
This is Qin Yang's unparalleled talent.
After LeBron was on the court, the Cavaliers' tactics were more simple and direct, and the number of runs and covers for players was reduced a lot, and more LeBron was the main one.
On the first ball, LeBron forced a layup to score.
The Jazz team can't wrap the clip, and there must be vacant seats on the outside of the Cavaliers outside the pack, and several people on the outside are very good at the vacant position, so it is impossible to give them a chance to shoot in the vacant seats.
As a result, the Jazz are under a lot of pressure.
The Jazz team attacked, LeBron made a successful steal, and then passed to Qin Yang, Qin Yang slowly dribbled the ball over the half court and handed it to LeBron who wanted the ball, LeBron continued to bulldozer layups, and after attracting the bag, he passed to Mo Bu on the outside, and Mo Bu passed to Qin Yang in the bottom corner of the help defense.
Qin Yang hit a three-point shot with a knife in his hand.
With such a big vacancy, if you don't hit, you're sorry for your teammates.
Although the goal was easy, Qin Yang still felt that something was wrong.
Whether it is Qin Yang himself, or Vallejo and Mo Buchuan, they have all lost their positive and enterprising things. When LeBron isn't on the court, everyone has to fight hard so that the score can lead.
But LeBron is on the court, and everyone has to cooperate with LeBron.
Running, passing, defending.
For example, LeBron's layup scoring and steals, in the eyes of fans and commentators, LeBron deserves to be a superstar, but in these two performances, teammates are also important.
Teammates attract the defense, giving LeBron the opportunity to face the defender alone, and it is the teammate's defense that puts pressure on the passer, and LeBron has a chance to steal.
But no one paid attention to the contributions of others.
It makes people feel lost.
Qin Yang could feel that if he didn't hit the three-point shot in this empty position, he would definitely be sprayed by the fans and commentators.
LeBron attracts the pack, you don't score in the open space on the perimeter, what a pig teammate......
But Qin Yang also wanted to get involved.
Everyone doesn't want to be underdogs, they all want to be the key player, but in the Cavaliers' strategy, everyone else is a green leaf, and LeBron is the flower.
Qin Yang suddenly understood something, and a trace of ambition arose in his heart!
The game is still going on.
After LeBron came on the court, the score suddenly opened up again, but the Jazz did not admit defeat.
The style of the Jazz is similar to that of coach Sloan, who is tough and tenacious. Although many people say that the Jazz are home and away, this is not true.
In fact, this is because of the presence of the home whistle.
But this time, the Cavaliers' home whistle is less obvious.
The obvious change is that the scale of the foul is relatively large, and the confrontation is very intense.
LeBron lays up again, this time the defender is almost hanging on LeBron, but the referee doesn't blow the penalty, in this case, LeBron hits the iron from mid-range.
Millsap grabbed the rebound and the Jazz played half-court offense.
The Jazz's offense is very simple, with countless pick-and-rolls and screens, and then pass-and-cut combinations to find scoring opportunities.
To be fair, it's easier to open up the situation with more pass-and-cut cooperation, but the Jazz's lineup has obvious flaws. Nearly every player has average passing and shooting, and no one is good at three-point shooting.
The Cavaliers combined defense and contracted defense, and the Jazz were embarrassed.
With a shot after the screen, the Jazz finally hit a mid-range.
Looking back, the Cavaliers attacked, LeBron was stuck in position by Millsap, and finally LeBron passed to Mo Williams, Mo Williams received the ball and broke through alone, the layup was covered, and the basketball was taken by the Jazz.
The Jazz were on offense again.
The Cavaliers were suddenly a little embarrassed.
LeBron made another layup, and the defender had an obvious pull move, but the referee didn't blow the penalty, and the audience was full of boos.
Fortunately, LeBron passed the ball to Qin Yang.
It was Miles who defended Qin Yang.
Prince was too low, and the Jazz switched defenses after Qin Yang shot a three-pointer. Miles is a little taller, with more speed and strength.
Qin Yang received the ball and volleyed quickly, then leaned his body to the right, and at the same time volleyed to the right side.
Prince also moved to the right.
At this time, Qin Yang quickly pulled the ball to the left.
Use rhythmic shifts to dodge a space.
But...... Qin Yang's speed slowed down a little after pulling the ball, and Miles quickly returned, and this time the inertia of Qin Yang's body was too late to do another disguise.
But it doesn't matter, Qin Yang stepped back after pulling the ball and jumped directly.
The moment he just provoked, he shot a three-point shot.
The moment you raise your hand, your left hand is released, and your right hand relies on the strength of your wrist to pluck the ball.
Very formal and professional shooting action.
Miles reacted quickly, jumped quickly, and couldn't even help leaning forward when he picked up.
But Qin Yang shot too fast, all Miles could do was hit Qin Yang in the air, and then slapped Qin Yang's arm.
Backbite!
Sou!
The three-point shot was hit, and the referee blew for a foul 3+1.
At the critical moment, Qin Yang hit the shot.
After hitting the free throw, the Cavaliers pulled away again.
The Jazz team attacked, shot iron, LeBron was strong enough to rebound, Qin Yang received the ball and assisted Mo Bu to pass and score a layup.
Looking back, Vallejo fouled, the Jazz made 1 of 2, the Cavaliers attacked, Qin Yang attacked the basket again with the help of blocking, attracted the defense and passed to LeBron who was about to grab a rebound, LeBron scored a dunk.
This wave of scoring frenzy began, and the Cavaliers quickly pulled away the score.
In five minutes, LeBron scored 29 points, 9 rebounds and 7 assists.
Qin Yang stayed until the last minute, although Qin Yang shot 1 of 5 in the last quarter, but 5 assists in a single quarter, successfully leading the Cavaliers' bench to resist the Jazz's offense.
