Chapter 673: State Returns
The Bobcats instantly chased the difference to only 3 points, and in the next round, the Cavaliers' offense, LeBron James burst out, faced Iguodala's interference, the layup was missed, and the Bobcats grabbed the rebound.
In this ball, the confrontation under the basket was a little intense, and James complained to the referee, but the referee did not blow the whistle.
In the Bobcats' offensive round, James patronized the referee to complain that there was no whistle and no return defense at all, so the Bobcats played a counterattack.
In the frontcourt, Larry Hughes and Ericsno, who retreated, could only retract to the basket, Paul divided the ball into the wing, and Michael Reed was in a large open position outside the three-point line, catching the ball and jumping.
Bang, it's in again!
"At 14:14, the margin was completely tied, and now, the Bobcats and Cavaliers are back on the same starting line."
It is said that it is the same running line, but in fact it is not, because in terms of momentum, the Bobcats at this time have clearly gained the upper hand, and after Michael Reed came out, the Bobcats' offense suddenly became smooth.
The Cavaliers' defense has been expanding, and they ignored Michael Reed's presence when he first came out.
And after suffering from it, the Cavaliers no longer dare to let go of Michael Reed, the threat of the Bobcats on the outside has increased, the space has gradually opened, and Chris Paul and Iguodala have the passing space, and the offense is naturally smooth.
In the next game, the Bobcats continued to turn from the strong side to the weak side on the offensive end, and after making full use of the space, after the first quarter, the Bobcats who made efforts in the second half of the game won 33:28, leading the Cavaliers by 5 points.
In this quarter, LeBron James broke out and scored 15 points, but it was useless, once the Bobcats' offense broke out, the Cavaliers' defense was still very inadequate.
In the second quarter, Qiao Hai replaced Michael Reed, who had just returned, from the break, and switched to a five-small lineup on the court, point guard Mo Williams, scoring guard Michael Petrus, small forward Danny Granger, power forward Gerard Wallace, and center Josh Smith.
The small lineup infinitely changed the defense of LeBron James, and only flanked in the low post, this defensive strategy was very effective against James's individual offense.
At the beginning of the second quarter, the Bobcats' defense also began to exert strength, playing a wave of 20:15 in the first half, and the point difference stretched to double digits, and in the second half of the quarter, Qiao Hai switched back to the backcourt combination of Michael Reed and Paul, and finally played another wave of 16:10.
At halftime, the Bobcats were 69-53, leading the Cavaliers by 16 points.
At the beginning of the third quarter, the Bobcats continued to take the initiative, using a regular lineup to suppress the opponent in the positional battle, and as the point difference widened more and more, the game gradually lost suspense, and Qiao Hai also replaced the bench one after another.
At the end of the third quarter, the Bobcats led by 22 points heading into the fourth quarter.
Then, halfway through the fourth quarter, the Bobcats had 19 points left in their lead, but time was running out and the Cavaliers had no chance of turning the game around.
The two teams made substitutions and the game was over.
In the end, the Bobcats defeated the Cavaliers with a score of 117-99, ending their losing streak.
In this game, LeBron James scored the highest score of the game again, 33 points, 12 rebounds, 8 assists, 1 steal and 2 blocks.
On the Bobcats' side, they continued to score in double figures, with Chris Paul scoring a team-high 20 points, seven assists and four steals.
Andre Iguodala had 17 points, 8 rebounds and 2 assists, Gerald Wallace had 16 points, 9 rebounds, 3 assists, 2 steals and 1 block, Josh Smith had 16 points, 7 rebounds, 1 steal and 2 blocks, and Danny Granger had 12 points.
And Michael Reed, who has just returned from injury, also scored 17 points, 4 assists and 2 steals, and performed well.
The Bobcats eventually scored in double figures with six players and took the lead in the game.
……
After this game, in the last game of January, the Bobcats defeated the Wizards 107-97 on the road, and the victory was just as easy, after the first quarter, the Bobcats already led by 8 points, 14 points in the half, 13 points in the third quarter, and were chased by the Wizards a little in the fourth quarter, but in the end, the 10-point lead was maintained until the end of the game.
The Bobcats easily won one victory, and after two consecutive wins, the Bobcats have ended most of the previous bad form for most of the month.
And throughout January, the Bobcats ended up losing six games, including a two-game losing streak, and a three-game losing streak on a Texas road trip, and it can be said that January was the worst month of the season for the Bobcats.
But in the end, the Bobcats still got a 10-6 single-month record, second only to the Pistons and Cavaliers in the East, and the overall record also came to 36-10, continuing to rank first in the East.
But in the league standings, the Bobcats have been completely thrown away by the Rockets, and behind them, the gap between the Spurs and the Bobcats is only one win.
That is to say, the results of the first two months of the Bobcat are too good, and it is not impossible for other teams to make waves like the Bobcats, and it is not impossible to fall directly from the first place in the East to the top four in the East.
……
In the first game of February, the Bobcats faced the Eagles.
This game can be said to be a direct confrontation between Champion Lang and Bangyanxiu, but obviously, at this stage of the season, Chris Paul, who averaged 17.3 points, 4.4 rebounds, 8.9 assists and 2.2 steals per game, has a strong contrast with Chris Paul, who averages 9.4 points, 7.0 rebounds, 2.2 assists and 1.1 blocks per game.
"Chris Paul has obviously made a difference, he already has the ability to be an All-Star, but he doesn't have enough qualifications, so this season, he may not be selected as an All-Star."
"And Andrew Boggart, 9 points, 7 rebounds and 1 block, for a center, can only be said to be qualified, and the talent and potential he showed looks like just an ordinary starter."
"Billy Knight's job is a failure, Andrew Boggart failed to play his value, last year's star Emeka Okafor played a quasi-All-Star performance in her rookie season, but this season, Okafor has regressed significantly, his shooting percentage has dropped a lot, his scoring is not as good as his rookie season, the overall stats have declined, and small injuries and illnesses continue."
On the other hand, Bobcats, last year's No. 7 rookie Andre Iguodala is getting better and better, Michael Reed averaged 17.3 points per game during his absence, which is a significant improvement from last season, and No. 17 rookie Josh Smith also played a quasi-star interior statistic.
"The Bobcats, who were lower in the pick, have selected better players, and Qiao Hai's draft vision has been completely blown up by Billy Knight."
“……”
Before the game, the media compared Paul and Andrew Boggart, although the selling point of this game is the top match, but obviously, Paul and Bogut have no need to compare.
It's the same in this game, there is no suspense, and the Bobcats are in good shape again after welcoming Michael Reed back.
In this game, they directly swept a 27-point lead in the third quarter, which directly turned the fourth quarter into garbage time.
And after this game, the final results of the All-Star voting are also in.
