Chapter 723: Re-entry Final Three

James is 23 years old, but to put it bluntly, if you count him as a year old, he is actually only 22 years old.

At the end of this month, Yang Di will usher in his twenty-third birthday, and the age of the two is actually half a year older than Yang Di, and they are both top young players in the league.

The Cavaliers are in their fourth season in the league with James at their core, making it to the Finals, which looks like a miracle.

James during this period was the darling of the league and the focus of media attention, and more importantly, except for the fans who hacked him and walked to the basket, no other fans hacked him anymore, and there was nothing to say about his character and ability.

Cavaliers offense, Larry Hughes dribbles.

At the top of the arc, Larry Hughes pretended to command twice before handing the ball to James, who asked for the ball at 45 degrees.

A big difference between James and Yang Di is that he wants the ball, Yang Di will ask for the ball in the elbow area, while James generally starts to attack outside the three-point line, James has a wider space, and the acceleration is often increased to a higher point.

James tri-threatened to hold the ball, turned a little bit, and went down on the right side to avoid harassment from Danny Granger.

Danny Granger defended with the center of gravity on James' right hand, and he selectively let James go to the left-hand side, provided that he broke through.

"Am I going to be fooled so easily?"

James snorted coldly, and his right foot tentatively stepped to the right, but he looked like he was going to the right to break through.

He has a strong ability to read defense, and the Warriors have taken the form of a zone defense against him, and one of the two must be on the strong side of his ball.

"Come on, come and break through!"

Danny Granger didn't shoot at the break, making it clear that James would be caught in the middle of the line.

After weighing the pros and cons, James still dribbled to the left to break through, and the middle position went straight to the basket, and immediately Yang Di came to make up for the defense, James, lightly scored, 45 degrees on the weak side, and Larry Hughes received the ball.

Facing Fisher, who then came back to the defense, Larry Hughes made a decisive three-point shot.

"Huh!"

It hit!

Everyone's hands were stiff at the beginning, and Larry Hughes's long-range three-pointer could be said to have boosted the morale of the Cavaliers, and when James returned to defense, he clenched his fists and shouted and high-fived Larry Hughes in celebration.

In fact, the Warriors' interior and exterior players, individually, are relatively weak, but if you look at them functionally, they are all players who fit James and match him.

Larry Hughes, for example, is positioned as a tall defender, a secondary playmaker, and an outside three-point shooter.

Larry Hughes is shooting 36 percent from three-point range this season.

Then Drew Gooden, which is a spatial No. 4 position, is the same as Chris Bosh and Amare Stoudemire, the three are average defensively and can shoot from the middle, the difference is that Drew Gooden's attack in the box is insufficient, he has a body of tendon flesh, and his ability to make fouls is almost zero.

This year with the Cavaliers, Gouge averaged 2.5 free throws per game.

Larry Hughes' first three-pointer of the opening game boosted the morale of the Cavaliers players, and slowly ignited the passion that belonged to Cleveland in the Oracle Arena where the white terror spread.

The Warriors attack in the frontcourt, and Yang Di takes the ball in the elbow area.

It's still Ray Allen's run, but this time it's a different way, Yang Di moves to the upper line and forms a hand-to-hand pass cover with Ray Allen.

Ray Allen received the ball and shook off Pavlovich, and Gooden could only move his feet out to delay Ray Allen.

At this moment, Yang Di suddenly turned around and cut into the air, and the speed of the small broken steps that broke out was amazing, and he went in horizontally, and Ray Allen gently flicked the ball with a sharp heart.

Yang Di received the ball and glanced at Tyson Chandler on the baseline on one side.

Just looking at it like this, Da Z, who had just suffered a loss, hesitated, Yang Difei went to the basket, Da Z didn't have time to defend, and watched him lick the frame successfully.

"Awesome!" Cavaliers head coach Mike Brown sighed in his heart.

Yang Di is really powerful, there are many players with superhuman physical fitness in the league, after having enough physical crushing conditions, they gradually forgot some basic basketball skills, but Yang Di did the opposite, as his body became stronger and stronger, his skills in all aspects were more delicate.

A simple feint can get a better chance of making a move.

4-3, the Warriors scored two goals in the opening game, both of which were inside lines of the offensive Cavaliers.

The Cavaliers feel very different, and when they played the Pistons before, it was completely two style rhythms, and after the Cavaliers players quickly advanced through the half, they handed it over to James to continue to single out Danny Granger.

Drew Gooden came out to block for James.

James dribbled the ball under his crotch, controlled the ball with his left hand, pulled the ball horizontally with his left hand, and pointed to the position under the basket with his right hand.

Yang Di and Danny Granger switched defenses at this time, and Yang Di faced James.

"Come on, LeBron!"

Yang Di clapped his hands, interfering with James' dribbling while provoking James in his defensive zone position, James looked at him and ignored him.

But at the moment when he lowered his eyes, he suddenly leaned over, controlled the ball with his left hand, took a big step to the left with his right foot, and the whole person suddenly changed direction and broke through to the left.

The fact that a player weighing 240 pounds could complete such a change of direction caused a burst of exclamation.

But Yang Di was not surprised, and reached over to block flatly, gathering strength to burst out of strength.

"Bang!"

The two are like two heavyweight trucks, colliding together, Yang Di is incomparable, and James also has the top strength.

The force of the rebound came, like an overwhelming, unstoppable force, James felt his arm tingle for a while, and almost got out of his hand.

He had long known that Yang Di's strength was very terrifying, and the two had fought each other more than once, but when he arrived on the stage of the finals, he still felt deeply tricky when he went all out.

James took a small step back and pulled the ball back with his left hand, failing to knock Yang Di away.

Yang Di stepped forward at this time, spread his arms, and pressed against James with his chest, and a pair of big arms downward, interfering with James's dribbling.

Yang Di didn't think about breaking the ball, he was never destined to break the ball since the Heat era, breaking the ball means losing position, he will only reach out to interfere with the opponent, if the opponent makes a mistake, it is the best state.

James didn't make a mistake and also took the time to watch the situation on the court.

Just as Larry Hughes moved to the line, James flicked his wrist and handed the ball to Larry Hughes.

Larry Hughes leaned over with the ball and burst into action with incredible speed, past Fisher's defense.

In fact, it wasn't clean, but Larry Hughes instinctively sensed that the boss was in trouble, so he took the initiative to attack the basket with the ball, mid-range position, facing the defense, and made a pull-up jump shot.

Missed, the rebound was protected by Danny Granger's rush.
