Chapter 659 Nets VS Cavaliers

In this way, in the second round of the Eastern Conference playoffs, one will be the Nets VS Cavaliers, and the other will be the Celtics VS Raptors.

Nets VS Cavaliers, Beast VS James, what a matchup to look forward to!

From the pre-match predictions, there are supporters on both sides, but the result is hard to predict.Although the Nets easily defeated the Bucks 4:1 in the first round, and the Cavaliers fought the 76ers until the tie-breaker, but in terms of the strength of their opponents, the 4ers ranked fourth in the East are also in the eighth Bucks. above the deer.

For the Beast, whether it's the Cavaliers or the 76ers, he has to beat, and he wants to lead the team to the Eastern Conference Finals, or even the Finals.

Before the game, the coaches of the two teams praised each other, saying that they wanted to challenge each other, so it was really "before the soldiers and horses move, the poisoned milk will go first".

The current coach of the Cavaliers is Tylen Lue, and David Blatt was finally fired, just during the period when the team's record was poor at the beginning of the season.

Beast remembers that David Blatt was fired in the 2015-16 season in his previous life, and he can persist until now mainly because the team ushered in 3 consecutive championships when he was in the Cavaliers.

Even if the upper echelons of the team don't like him anymore, James doesn't like him either, but you can't just fire a coach who leads the team to win championships at will, right?

Beast remembered that in his previous life, Director Lu left before the end of the Cavaliers season. If the Cavaliers were eliminated in the semifinals, the probability of Perch leaving was quite high.

Perch is also quite sad. After being the head coach for half a season, it is very likely that he will be fired. Tell me, what is this called!

Of course, Bass is not sure that he will be fired, but once the Cavaliers are out, the possibility of him being fired is extremely great.

Beast also thought to himself, if Bass was fired by the Cavaliers, he could invite him to coach.As for whether to be the head coach or an assistant coach, we will talk about it at that time.

Needless to say, the ability of perch, whether it is cooking chicken soup or forming an army, there are two brushes.The biggest difference between him and his mentor, Lao Li, is that he knows how to be flexible, while Lao Li is the type who goes all the way to the dark, does not hit the south wall and does not look back.

Otherwise, Lao Li will not always be reversed in the playoffs. He often takes care of his cards, but the playoffs are unpredictable, so unless you can crush the opponent with strength, it is very likely to overturn.

Beast won a total of 201478 points in the first round of the series against the Bucks, and he added all these points to the explosive power of the tiger style on the attribute panel.His explosive power went from 91 to 93!

On May 5, the Nets VS Cavaliers series G2 will be held at the Nets' home stadium, the Barclays Center Arena.

The Cavaliers and the Beast were the same in their previous lives. Because of the unfavorable alignment of the lineup and conflicts in the locker room, they made a big deal in the mid-term. They traded Thomas Jr., Claude, Rose, and Wade for George Shea Ye and other players.

Before the game, the former teammates of the two teams exchanged pleasantries.We are all professional players, so we naturally understand that we can be friends off the court, but on the court, we are opponents.

In this game, the starting lineup of the Nets at home is still Beast, Howard, Carroll, Beau Bois and Jeremy Lin.

The starting lineup of the Cavaliers for the away game is: center - Kevin Love, power forward - LeBron James, small forward - Kyle Korver, shooting guard - JR Smith, point guard - —George Hill.

The Cavaliers came up with a 5-out hyperspace lineup. This lineup is properly "one star and four shots". When the shooter feels online, this lineup is theoretically unstoppable.

But this lineup also has a big problem, that is, it is basically unable to defend against opponents.

How poor Love's defensive ability is, I really feel deeply with the beast he was a teammate.Love never protects the frame, and sometimes he doesn't even jump.He is very poor at defending against pick-and-rolls. When changing defenses, he is stepped over, and his feet move slower than Howard.

In addition to defensive rebounds, Love is really useless on the defensive end.

As for Korver, he is a very serious defender, but he is too old and his physical confrontation ability is too poor, which makes him a loophole on the defensive end.

The defense of this lineup is not bad, it is James and George Hill.As for JR, his defense is not good now, and his decline is serious, but compared to Korver and Love, his defense is already considered very good.

After the game started, the Cavaliers showed everyone the spatial power of their lineup.

Howard has almost nowhere to hide, because the Cavaliers' center is almost always outside the 3-point line on the offensive end.

In this way, as long as Howard doesn't go out, the Cavaliers can easily get open opportunities.

Although the tiebreaker was played, the physical condition of the players in the Cavaliers is still very good. James also showed everyone how to name the opponent's players in the pure space lineup.

James made various roll calls, including Howard, Jeremy Lin, Beaubois, and Russell who was replaced later.

Of course, the Cavaliers on the defensive end cannot limit the inside offense of the Nets. Their approach is to shrink the inside, pinch the beast, and selectively empty Jeremy Lin and Carroll's 3-pointers.

Compared with the Bucks, the Cavaliers play more extreme, which is to tell you-my defense is a gamble, nothing else.

But this game was won by the Cavaliers. Both Jeremy Lin and Carroll on the Nets side were not allowed to score 3 points, which made it impossible for the Beast to effectively convert the large number of vacancies obtained by the pincer attack into points.

In the end, the Nets forced the Beast to face the flank attack and attack forcefully, and the input and output of this attack method are naturally difficult to be directly proportional.

The Cavaliers shot 3-pointers too accurately in this game. In the end, they defeated the Nets in the away game and ushered in the victory in the first game of the series.

The Nets fell behind 0:1 in the series, and they lost a home game in the playoffs for the first time this season.

The Nets lost their home court advantage, and their twin-tower lineup lost its previous power when facing the Cavaliers' 5-out lineup.

In fact, the Nets' twin-tower lineup has not been blown up.In the regular season, it is not uncommon for Howard to be trained by those guards.Playing Mosaic, if they hadn't withdrawn the Twin Towers lineup in the end, the game would never have been won.

Judging from the reality, it is really becoming more and more difficult for a center forward who cannot expand the perimeter, cannot switch defenses, moves slowly and has no shooting ability to survive in this league.

The locker room of the home team after the game seemed very quiet.

Beast originally wanted to boost everyone's morale, but after thinking about it, the smooth sailing of the last round of the series made everyone feel a little complacent. Being hit like this is not necessarily a bad thing.

So he finally gave up calling for encouragement. Sometimes this kind of talk is too much, and the listeners will be immune, and the effect will become worse.

Let the failure remind everyone that we are not perfect, and the playoffs are not as easy as imagined, which should be positive.
