On May 2015, 5, Quicken Loans Arena.
Game [-] between Indiana Pacers and Cleveland Cavaliers.
Amid the wild cheers of Kecun fans, Xu Xuan and the Pacers started the team's trip to the Eastern Conference Finals.
It's tough against the Cavaliers.
Before the game, most of the media in the United States believed that the Pacers had no chance.
The Cavaliers are too strong, even the Bulls with such a fierce defense were defeated by them 4-2, let alone the Pacers?
The strength of the Pacers is Xu Xuan, and the strength of the Cavaliers is the Big Three headed by James.
The biggest weakness of the Pacers is the inside, and the Cavaliers are not very strong inside, but they have Love, and they can completely crush West.
Xu Xuan's offensive ability is very strong, but Irving is enough to match him.
James slightly beat Pickled Pepper, who returned from injury, and Love beat West by a big margin.
Of course it's a tough game.
4 to 0, this is the score most experts gave this round of the series.
With Xu Xuan's current popularity in the United States and Xu Xuan's current status of being sought after by famous experts.
It is not so easy for most of them to make such pre-match predictions.
If not really beat.
If not, there is really no hope of victory.
It is absolutely impossible for these people to give such one-sided predictions.
Later, the Pacers and Cavaliers series began.
In Los Angeles, Kobe Bryant ended today's recovery training. He did not practice or leave the training hall directly. He took a shower in the locker room and turned on the TV.
"Kobe, aren't you going back?" Byron Scott walked in with a stack of documents.
"Yes." Kobe sat on the chair, and on the TV, the game between the Pacers and the Cavaliers was about to start.
"Pacers vs. Cavaliers? Watch their game?" Byron Scott shook his head. "You really can't rest at all, Kobe, but I don't think there is anything interesting in this game. The Pacers will definitely lose."
Kobe smiled: "Byron, I think so too, but I still want to get to know that young man, maybe this should be the most difficult game for him, and I also want to see how he played in this game." Under the high pressure, what step can he do?"
Byron Scott seemed to be persuaded, he nodded, did not move, and sat aside, watching with Kobe.
Cleveland, in the locker room of the visiting team, the Pacers have already changed their clothes, and Frank is standing in the middle of the field, giving a speech before the game.
"Guys! We are already on the stage of the conference finals! We have come all the way, the regular season is extremely thrilling but it is also a risk of survival, and the first two rounds of the playoffs are also going smoothly, but this does not mean that we are already Being invincible doesn’t mean we have no opponents! Look at our opponents this time, the Cleveland Cavaliers, who do they have? No.1 in the league, the best first team, regular season MVP, championship winner, their emperor— — LeBron James, No. [-] pick, All-Star point guard Kyrie Irving, All-Star power forward, former Wolves king Kevin Love..."
"Looking at our lineup, there is only Xu Xuan, a second-team All-Star point guard in the league. He is completely incomparable with the Cavaliers."
"But tell me now, are you afraid?"
"Not afraid!"
"Then use all our strength to win every next game!"
"We have met our greatest enemy, but all we need is fight! fight! fight!"
Frank yelled a slogan at the end, and everyone in the locker room yelled in unison.
"fighting!"
After the appearance ceremony, with the chalk powder floating in the sky, the competition began!
"Irving, Shumpert, James, Love, Mozgov" Barkley sighed, "The Cavaliers' starting lineup is tough."
Obviously, the opponent used Shumpert to start to defend Xu Xuan. As long as Xu Xuan was defended, the Pacers would naturally be defeated.
The starters of the two teams took their positions in the middle circle and were ready to jump the ball. The cheers and screams of the fans on the sidelines became louder. With the whistle of the referee, the basketball flew into the sky. Hibbert, who was in charge of the jump ball, And Mozgov jumped high and met in the air.
"No accident! Mozgov got the ball!"
In the first attack of the Cavaliers, Xu Xuan faced Owen, but this attack was finally terminated by Kevin Love. The former wolf king made a subtle fake move when facing West's defense. One step away from West, or the bottom corner!
A jumper hit a three-pointer.
"The Cavaliers' offense is really fluid."
"West can't keep up with Love's speed. It seems that the Cavaliers are likely to shift the focus of offense to Love in this game."
In the past, Love can only be regarded as the third offensive point of the Cavaliers.
The Pacers sent out the baseline ball.
Catch the ball.
Steady possession of the ball across the half.
It was the former teammate Iman Shumpert who defended Xu Xuan.
But Shumpert's face was very serious and he didn't intend to catch up with Xu Xuan.
骑士这场比赛打的是3-2区域联防，主防外线，3-2联防就是1-2-2联防的一个变化站位，两种防守体系的精髓大致相同。
This kind of defense strengthens the peripheral defense, which is conducive to the defense of mid-range and long-range shots and stealing the ball to launch a fast break, but it is not conducive to defending the mid-range and long-range shots of the two corners and attacking the basket, and it is also not conducive to rebounding.
Because the Pacers' offensive rebound rate is not high now, and Xu Xuan's mid-range and long-range shots are basically on the line, so the Cavaliers' defense is very bold.
Xu Xuan observed the Cavaliers' defense at the top of the arc and frowned.
It's hard to beat.
Xu Xuan gave the ball to Paojiao who ran out.
Pickle stuffed to CJ Miles in the bottom corner.
Miles met James after taking two steps from the left, and immediately gave up. He wanted to give the ball to Xu Xuan outside.
However, the ball was directly intercepted by James, who had been prepared for a long time!
"not good!!"
Cavaliers fast break.
James launched a tank sprint! ! !
Xu Xuan immediately turned around and accelerated his pursuit.
James was parallel to Xu Xuan, and after halftime, James rolled Xu Xuan all the way from the middle.
Xu Xuan kept harassing, and finally cut the ball when the two were stepping on the three-point line.
However, James still did not dribble the ball, but received the ball directly along the rhythm.
James started to shake off Xu Xuan.
Xu Xuan was also passed. At this time, Xu Xuan could only watch James take three steps.
But James didn't adjust the rhythm well, and there was some garlic under his feet, and he started staggeringly
step,
two steps,
three steps,
four steps,
five steps
Eh?
and many more!
five steps? !
With Xu Xuan staring at him with wide eyes.
James completed a five-step layup.
"Walking, he's walking! Referee"
Xu Xuan turned his head and yelled at the referee.
But the referee didn't say anything, indicating that the score is valid.
Grass (lots of roadside)! !
