Chapter 671: Only Fight Weaknesses, Unexpected Situations
Qin Yang was simply undisciplined, chasing Kevin Lefu to fight.
The shortcomings of Kevin Love's weak defense and slow speed were brought to the extreme, and in the fifth minute of the fourth quarter, David Blatter called a timeout, and Kevin Love was substituted.
If it goes on like this, the game can't be played.
The team has a big defensive hole at a critical moment, and how can the game be played like this.
Coming back from the timeout, the Cavaliers brought on Mozgov.
Mozgov defensively is forced, fast, and able to brush Kevin Love's shortcomings.
There's nothing wrong with David Blatter's idea.
If it was usual, the whole game was so big, the Cavaliers couldn't hold it, because Kevin Love was no longer there, and the Cavaliers' two blue-collar interior lines couldn't open up the space at all.
This is back to the embarrassment of the original Heat.
But now there are only a few minutes left, and defense is more important than offense, not to mention that even if Kevin Love doesn't play, the Cavaliers offense is strong.
Kelly Irving's three-point shot and Wade are not on the same level and could make up for the Cavaliers' shortcomings.
The fact is also the same as David Blatter's imagination, after the Cavaliers got on Mozgov, the Mavericks' offense encountered problems, Mozgov was on the inside, and the Mavericks' offense was really not smooth enough.
In addition to the outside attack, the inside attack is almost all iron.
Fortunately, the Cavaliers are not comfortable, Kevin Love and Bosh play a similar role, it seems that the statistics are average, but they are actually important.
With Kevin Love, he can open up space, attract defense, and grab rebounds.
As James's backstabber, no, teammates, very qualified.
Both teams are uncomfortable, and it depends on the superstar at the critical moment.
At this time, it is even more exciting.
The Mavericks attacked, Dirk held the ball in the middle distance, Qin Yang Zhiji opened up space on the outside, Dirk faced Mozgov, and after a direct back-to-back single, he turned around and jumped.
Although it is not a golden rooster independent, this ball has a high arc.
Combined with the timing of his shot and the height advantage, Dirk hit a mid-range shot steadily.
Giant planet.
There is no suspense.
The Cavaliers attacked, and James made the same choice, carrying Rudy Guy into the interior and forcing a shot under the basket, and almost causing Rudy Guy to foul.
Fortunately, at the critical moment, Rudy Gay shrank back.
The Mavericks attacked, and Qin Yang shot the iron from the middle distance.
There is nothing wrong with Qin Yang's choice of this ball, Dirk is defended inside, and after Qin Yang breaks through, it is the best choice to shoot directly from the middle distance.
It's a pity that JR Smith behind him exerted a strong confrontation, and Qin Yang's shot was missed.
The ball should be foul in terms of action.
If Rudy Gay had done this, it would have been a foul, but the referee didn't blow the whistle, perhaps because the game was more cautious in the last part of the fourth quarter, or maybe there were other reasons.
Tristan Thompson grabbed the rebound and passed it to James safely.
James once again held the ball and passed to Kelly Irving, who received the ball and shot quickly and hit a three-pointer.
Qin Yang grabbed the rebound.
Mavericks offense.
Dirk stepped forward to cover, Qin Yang broke through, this time Qin Yang came to a riot operation again, after blocking and dismantling, Qin Yang did not break through quickly, but retreated, and the defender behind the card owner made a shooting action to attract the defense of the inside.
In this way, there are defenders in front and behind.
Bag clip.
But at this point, Dirk ran close to the open basket.
Qin Yang passed the ball directly, and Dirk shot from close range and hit it steadily.
At the critical moment, Qin Yang and Dirk cooperated tacitly.
The Cavaliers attacked, James broke through, Qin Yang assisted in defense, James gave the ball to JR Smith, Rudy Gay changed defenses, and JR Smith hit a three-pointer against the defense at the critical moment.
But looking back, Dirk covered again, and after the cover, he retreated outside the three-point line, Qin Yang dribbled in the bag and passed to Dirk, who hit an open three-pointer.
Rumble!
The scene was boiling.
"Dek Nowitzki!"
The Mavericks cheered at home.
Qin Yang turned around and high-fived Dirk in celebration.
The Cavaliers attacked, Mozgov blocked and covered, Qin Yang misplaced to defend James, this time, Qin Yang was really crazy, crazy and against James.
Fighting strength, Qin Yang is definitely not James's opponent.
But once in a while, James can't stand it.
James stumbled through and finally opted for a pass, and Mozgov received the ball and singled a small hook shot in the low post.
This is what Mozgov does best in scoring methods. Mozgov has hit a lot of balls in this way this season, but this time, Gobert jumped high inside and grabbed the ball directly.
Grab the hat!
At critical moments, the Mavericks possessed the ball.
Qin Yang quickly broke through after getting the ball, and Rudy Gay also rushed to the half court frantically.
The Cavaliers quickly returned to defense.
After Qin Yang passed the half, a change of direction accelerated past James, and then faked a pass to Rudy Guy, scored a layup directly, Tristan Thompson chased the defense from behind, and directly knocked Qin Yang to the ground.
Backbite!
The whistle blows, 2+1!
A 2+1 at a critical moment, the Mavericks cheered at home.
In the last minute, the margin widened to 8 points.
It's a tough game.
The Cavaliers attacked, James forced a layup after taking the ball, and Rudy Gay fouled four times, but at this time, it was also a fight.
The whole body was almost hanging on James's body.
James forced his way to the basket and the basketball hit the iron.
But the whistle blew and Rudy Gay fouled.
James made 2-of-2 free throws.
The Mavericks attacked, Dirk continued to cover, Qin Yang broke through, and this time JR Smith also tried his best, Qin Yang almost stumbled into the baseline position, and then passed to Rudy Guy, who was in the air.
At the critical moment, Rudy Gay made a layup, and Tristan Thompson stepped forward to block.
The basketball jolted and popped out of the hoop.
Under the basket, Dirk and James competed for the rebound, Dirk was in a better position, jumped high, and got the rebound, but the next moment, Dirk fell to the ground.
Qin Yang called a timeout.
The team doctor came on the court to look at Dirk's injuries and didn't say much, and carried Dirk down.
The team made an emergency substitution, and Al Jefferson came on.
"Guys, it's the last half minute, we're six points ahead, and as long as we don't make mistakes, we're going to win, so let's defend well."
Qin Yang's expression was very serious, and Coach Carlisle was also replaced.
Gobert, Al Jefferson, Rudy Gay, Qin Yang, Cory Brewer.
Mavericks ball possession.
Qin Yang dribbled over half the court and originally wanted to consume time, but seeing that Gobert was in a good position on the inside, he passed the ball directly, but at this time, Tristan Thompson, the inside line of the Cavaliers, fouled Gobert directly.
Slash shark tactics!
No, it should be said to prevent the Mavericks from wasting time.
I can't afford time now.
Gobert makes a free throw.
Qin Yang stepped forward to comfort him, but it didn't work, Gobert made 0 of 2 free throws at the critical moment, and Tristan Thompson got the rebound.
The Cavaliers attack.
At the critical moment, Kelly Irving shot a direct three-pointer, and in the defense of Cory Brewer, Kelly Irving took advantage of the rhythm, found the time difference, and jumped directly to shoot. Brewer was a step slower, and Irving made the three-pointer with a seemingly difficult time.
There are only three points left in the margin.
