Chapter 392 Sincere Suggestion

On the field, 4:0, the Suns lead.

He was dunked twice at the beginning of the game, and got two consecutive seals. The morale of the Cavaliers was obviously depressed.

In the following time, James reduced holding the ball, but mainly moved without the ball.

After getting the ball, he also gave up the idea of ​​flying over Li Ba's head, and rarely attacked the basket directly, but mainly shot and responded to the pass.

Later, Big Z attacked under the basket, Li Ba sent another block, and then the Cavaliers basically focused on outside shots, even Big Z and Gooden also pulled out to shoot.

At the end of the first quarter, at 24:16, the Suns led away by 8 points.

The Cavaliers just played against the Eagles at home yesterday. This game was also back-to-back. The shooting feels average and the score is very low.

But the same goes for the Suns. The consecutive away games made them feel average and their excitement was low.

In the first quarter, Li Ba made 4 of 4 shots at the basket and 1 of 2 free throws. He scored 9 points, 7 rebounds, 1 assist, 1 steal and 3 blocks.

James made 2 of 6 shots and 2 of 3 free throws. He scored 6 points, 1 rebound and 1 assist. His performance was not bad.

The second quarter came off the bench.

The Cavaliers' backup point guard is Eric Snow, who previously partnered with Iverson in the 76ers and is a standard point guard.

The Suns are composed of Tyson Chandler and Dazhi as an inside team, one offense and one defense, the striker has Battier, and the guard combination is the super giant Payton and Barbosa, which is also one offense and one defense.

The substitutes played less time and had better physical fitness than the main players. In the first half of the quarter, the Suns' substitutes overwhelmed the Cavaliers' substitutes.

From the guard combination, to the forward line, and then to the inside combination, all aspects are crushed, and the gap between the main players of the two sides is even greater.

15:5, at half a quarter, the Suns won by 10 points.

In the second half of the quarter, James couldn't stand it anymore and went up to play for half the quarter.

Facing Chandler's defense that wasn't strong enough, he frantically held the ball and entered the paint area. Under the double-teaming of Chandler and Da Zhi, he made 3 of 6 shots and 2 of 4 free throws, scoring 8 points in the half quarter .

But he also had a block from Chandler and two turnovers, which didn't take much advantage.

At 10:12, relying on James' performance in the second half, he got back 2 points.

After the first half, 49:33, the Suns led by 16 points.

"As big as 2 of 5 shots, 2 of 2 free throws, 6 points and 2 rebounds, the efficiency is not bad. He has stood firm in the Suns' bench lineup." Zhang Reasonable laughed.

"As big as it is, I must have stood firm. These few games have played no less than 20 minutes, averaged 9+3 per game, and the data of normal rotation players is not bad. In addition, Mr. Zhang, Chandler made 2 of 4 shots in a single quarter. , Scoring 4 points, 4 rebounds and 1 block, the defense is very strong." Yu Jia said.

"Hammer said that if the fourth position is not strengthened this season, he may try this position. If Chandler can play in the fifth position, this may be true. But I heard that his physique is not very good. Well, it's easy to get hurt and impatient." Zhang Lili said.

After 15 minutes, the third quarter began, and the Cavaliers served from the bottom line.

For the Cavaliers, backup point guard Eric Snow continued to play, and Jeff McInnis, the main point guard in the first quarter, served as the shooting guard.

The Suns, Battier and Barbosa continued to play.

"LeBron, I don't feel good on the outside. I need you to get in." Before playing, head coach Paul Silas said.

"I understand, coach." James nodded.

After serving, Eric Snow advanced to the frontcourt with the ball, and James asked for the ball on the left-wing three-point line.

During the time between the 76ers and Iverson, the possession of the ball was controlled by Snow, and Iverson mostly ran without the ball. Now that he is in the Cavaliers, he is still a bit uncomfortable when he meets James, a quite versatile rookie boss. Get used to it, but the ball was passed immediately.

James got the ball and was about to break through.

He just showed his confidence in the second half of the second quarter. Even if the head coach doesn't ask for it, he still has to continue to attack the inside.

"How could I lose to that guy? I must destroy his defense head-on!" He thought to himself.

"Bang bang bang..."

"Squeak..."

James held Battier with his left hand, dribbled the ball with his right hand, and began to break through with a horizontal push.

After three steps, he completely squeezed Battier away, charged up, and charged towards the paint area with great kinetic energy.

Li Ba directly defended the basket this time, and stood outside the collision zone reasonably, at a 45-degree angle to the left.

Big Z didn't follow up and reached for the ball in the low position on the left wing.

But James didn't give it this time, and directly took the ball into Liba.

One meter away from Li Ba, he suddenly turned upwards and pulled horizontally.

This change of direction was impossible, because Li Ba stood still and was not in the reasonable collision zone. If he hit Li Ba, it would be an offensive foul.

Taking a step horizontally, James has reached the front of the basket, jumped up directly, grabbed the ball with his right hand, and as his body turned inward in the air, he frantically smashed the ball into the basket.

When James pulled horizontally, Li Ba reacted instantly, stepped back with his left foot, retreated into a reasonable collision zone, and then quickly took off.

James violently smashed the basket, and suddenly felt a blur in front of his eyes, and a big hand suddenly appeared in front of the basket.

"boom!"

He didn't have time to react, and a ball hit Li Ba's left hand.

Li Ba's left hand was knocked back half a foot in an instant before he lost his strength and almost touched the basket.

This block was just perfect, the ball was still between the palms of the two.

Then Li Ba grasped with five fingers, and as his body fell, he forcibly grabbed the basketball from James' hands.

"Oh, there are two!"

In the exclamation of the audience, Barkley roared excitedly.

"Wow, a beautiful grab cap! This is the Hammer's performance moment, and the supporting role is the No. 1 pick LeBron James." The Suns live commentator roared excitedly.

Li Ba passed the ball immediately after landing, and Marbury took the ball down quickly, and with absolute speed, he got rid of Eric Snow and made a successful layup.

51:33, the Suns led by 18 points.

Seeing the goal, James, who had returned to the top of the arc, couldn't help but stop.

"Hey, rookie, a sincere suggestion, go outside and shoot a jumper. As long as I am under the basket, your most suitable position is an outside shooter."

Li Ba stayed under the basket, grinning and prodding James with trash talk.

"Hammer, sooner or later I will smash your basket!" James said angrily.

Knights attack.

James got a catch cap, and his mood went down temporarily, and he didn't ask for the ball.

Knights attack.

In the low position, Big Z was overwhelmed by Li Ba, so he simply moved up to the high position.

He has a strong low-post singles ability, but it is limited to a muscular type. He is not a melee low-post player by nature and wins with technology.

So now that he encounters a strong player like Li Ba, who is also super strong in defense, his low-post singles ability can't be played out.

But in addition to low singles ability, he also has a very good high jumper ability.

In this position, his shot height is not lower than that of Dayao, and he is also accurate and very threatening.
