Chapter 176 Science is the primary productive force (seek support)

Playing the playoffs with the Cavaliers is also beneficial. The first matchup will be broadcast live across the United States. Even with the Rockets not making the playoffs, Ke Yan is also the only one that Chinese fans are paying attention to.

The attention is immediately filled!

Scientist vs little emperor, in terms of reputation, Ke Yan has the upper hand!

Why has China been so humiliated by foreign powers in its modern history? To put it more deeply, “Navigation civilization can breed physics, and physics is the core of science; agricultural civilization can only breed biology, not physics, so in macro terms, Western civilization

It is inevitable that China's development will surpass that of Eastern civilization." To put it simply, "the Qing government's closed-door policy made China's productivity far behind the West, and science and technology is the primary productive force..."

In front of science, the emperor is nothing?

The Eagles played in the playoffs for the first time in recent years, and the atmosphere at home was extremely heated. The cheers were deafening when Paul and Joe Johnson came on the court.

James looked at Keyan across the court, frowning and looking unkind. He didn't react until Paul came over to say hello.

The two had played against each other in the AUU tournament when they were in middle school and knew each other. In fact, there are various training camps and tournaments in the United States, and there is no shortage of opportunities for these talented players of the same age to compete. Garnett and Pierce grew up in the same environment.

They have nothing to do with each other, they even played against each other in middle school. The sports culture in the United States is indeed enviable sometimes.

In the G1 game, Mike Brown adjusted the starting lineup and put Larry Hughes back into the starting lineup to strengthen the team's starting lineup.

Objectively speaking, this is a very wise choice. When the team's strength and on-the-spot adjustments are not as good as their opponents, and they are playing away games, Mike Brown needs to come up with some strange tricks to deal with the Eagles and continue with regular tactics. Mike Brown is not confident that he can

Win the series.

Josh Smith and Ilgauskas stood in the middle, respectively responsible for the jump ball. The referee explained to them as usual, "First, never act out of emotion; second, never miss any bad call; third,

The referee’s fairness is absolutely beautiful.”

In the regular season, Josh Smith made 77 opening jump balls, with a record of 21 wins and 56 losses. The winning rate was very low. However, when he jumped the ball for the first time in the playoffs, he used his lighter bounce to get the ball for the Eagles and set the stage for this game.

A good start.

The most significant difference between the playoffs and the regular season is the defense. Regardless of the defensive ability, at least the attitude and enthusiasm have been improved to a higher level. As soon as Paul received the ball, the five Cavaliers retreated like a tide.

In the half, the Eagles had no chance for a fast break.

After the Cavaliers retreat, they still adopt a defensive posture that is a bit like a 1-2-2 zone defense, but the two inside players are a bit high, and you don't know whether they are playing zone defense or man-to-man.

But Paul didn't care what kind of defensive routine he was using. He didn't use the inside to help pick and roll, and used his footwork advantage to beat Snow.

Paul successfully led Snow to the wing, and then passed it back to Diaw, who had been staying in the high post. He took the opportunity to throw Snow away and rush to the baseline.

After receiving the ball, Diaw made a fairly standard shooting action, passed the big Z, and then deftly broke through to the inside, attracting James. At the same time, Josh Smith quickly sank to the bottom, containing Gooden.

attention.

At this time, Diaw hit the ground and passed the ball to Paul, who had gone around the Cavaliers' penalty area. The latter easily made a layup and scored the Hawks' first playoff point in many years.

The Cavaliers' record has soared this season, and the defensive system built around James has played a major role. Compared with the "dominant force" on the offensive end, James can better reflect his soaring physical fitness on the defensive end, filling in for his teammates.

The Cavaliers' defensive efficiency ranks sixth in the league, and they are definitely a strong defensive team.

However, this system, which is built around a defensive core and has other players with average defensive abilities, is often difficult to withstand against a team like the Hawks that has many ball-holding offensive points. This is true for the Timberwolves and the Cavaliers.

When the Cavaliers attacked, Snow dribbled the ball past half court and handed the ball to James. Hammers didn't even ask for a cover. Faced with Posey's defensive strategy of preventing breakthroughs but not shots, he lowered his waist and turned to the side, then put the ball in gear.

He accelerated, shouldered Percy, and forced himself away from him.

Breaking through Posey does not mean that he has solved the Eagles' defensive system. Josh Smith came up to cover the defense at the right time. James changed direction significantly and went to the baseline to shake Josh, then pulled the ball back and caught Posey in front of him.

Before Xi Hui defended in position, he used his foot force, jumped up lightly, and then took action.

The basketball entered the net cleanly. James completed this set of moves with ease. Bug's physical fitness made it easy for him to complete difficult moves under strong confrontation. He is indeed a being who can represent human beings in fighting aliens.

"The first offense of both sides was successful, and both reflected their respective offensive characteristics." Yoga said, "How to limit James must be a very difficult problem for Coach Keyan."

"Hey~ (second sound), that's right. Let's look at the Eagles' offense just now, the overall ball transmission, from Paul's breakthrough, to Diaw who was pulled out, and then he slipped to the baseline, and Diaw passed it back. This is what we

It is often said that the high and low positions are coordinated. Looking at the Cavaliers on the other hand, it is relatively simple. James suddenly gets the ball by himself, and the Hawks just can't guard him!" Zhang Lili's explanation cannot be said to be useless, it can only be said that it is useless.

value.

The two people were still analyzing. The Eagles' offense was successful again. Diaw moved to the high post and brought out Big Z. Paul played a pick-and-roll with Josh Smith, attracting the defense and then passing the ball to Josh Smith, who went to the basket.

, attracted James to cover and then sent a behind-the-back pass to help Posey in the corner hit an open three-pointer.

Posey is a typical 3D player, reliable on defense, and capable of spot-up three-pointers on the offensive end. But he is not suitable for run-and-gun tactics. It is not his specialty to jump in and shoot three-pointers. He missed many open three-pointers in the regular season.

Opportunity, his outside shooting percentage is only 33%. His relatively unstable three-point shooting was also highlighted by Mike Brown in his preparations before the start of the playoffs.

It's just that once he enters the offensive and defensive positions and waits for shooting opportunities in the corner, Posey's shooting percentage is still very reliable.

After Mike Brown saw the ball, he yelled on the sidelines and clapped his hands, reminding the players to concentrate and pay attention to defense!

Looking back, the Cavaliers' offense was also successful. Larry Hughes held the ball across half court, used his speed advantage to break through Joe Johnson, pressured Joe Johnson to retreat, and then made a pull-up jump shot!

The second-in-command of the Cavaliers is really capable, but the problem is that he is not compatible with James.

The key is can this kind of singles be sustained?

When the Eagles attacked, Paul dribbled the ball to the frontcourt. Facing Snow's defense, he took a strong step from the left and then suddenly made a pull-up jumper, which was slightly too strong and missed.

Gooden protected the rebound, the Cavaliers slowed down the rhythm, and the players opened up. James and Gooden played a pick-and-roll again, attracting Josh Smith to double attack, and then took out a little space and passed it to Big Z in the low post on the right.

In terms of body size, Big Z is two sizes bigger than Diaw. Big Z chose to play in singles and turned to the center for a jump shot. It missed due to Diaw's interference in the lower plate, and Josh Smith grabbed the rebound.

Big Z's offense is adequate in the regular season, but basically unreliable in the playoffs. To put it bluntly, you can find their playoff masterpieces from Gooden, Gibson and even Varejao, but there are basically none in Big Z's case.

Posey moved in to help Josh Smith pick off the backboard and passed to Paul immediately. The latter quickly advanced and brought it to the frontcourt to see if Joe Johnson wanted the ball but didn't pass it. Suddenly there was another pull-up in the middle. The rhythm of this ball was very

Good, accurate hit. 7 to 4.

The Cavaliers' positional battle attack almost ran out of 24 seconds. Hughes missed a jumper due to interference from Josh's defense. Big Z barely grabbed the offensive rebound and was cut off by Paul before the point could be scored. The Eagles launched their attack immediately.

Fast break.

Paul faced James, constantly changing directions to disrupt the opponent's defensive rhythm, and then passed the ball to Joe Johnson who was diagonally crossing. James continued to make up the position, but unexpectedly Joe Johnson threw the ball into the air. Paul jumped to catch the ball, but his posture was relatively reluctant.

(9:4)

Behind every difficult alley-oop, there is a passer! That is to say, Paul has a really good feel for the ball. If this ball was replaced by someone else, he might have to land first and then handle the ball. With James's

Physical fitness is likely to provide interference.

The Cavaliers attacked, and the Eagles switched to zone defense. James broke into the crowd and passed out. Larry Hughes was followed by Joe Johnson and had no chance. He could only pass to James who came out to connect.

James lobbed the ball to Gooden, who singled out Josh Smith. After resisting twice with his back, he turned around and missed the shot. Big Z pressed Diaw to grab the offensive rebound. The ball went out to the outside. James reorganized the offense.

The Cavaliers passed the ball back and forth to adjust the Hawks' defense. James saw the opportunity and forced a layup. However, he was interfered by Diaw, and the referee called Diaw for a foul.

"..." Ke Yan acted exaggeratedly on the sidelines and put pressure on the referee.

I can understand your bias, but at least you should be more professional. Diaw didn't even touch James' hand. Is this a foul?

The referee came over quickly and gave Ke Yan a "warning", but in fact it was a "coward" and told Ke Yan to stop.

James made two free throws (9:6)

After the opening, the game was exciting, but neither side exerted force. The Cavaliers were testing the effect of Larry Hughes being transferred to the starting lineup, while the Eagles allowed Paul to attack more resolutely.

The feedback received by the two coaches on their adjustments was mediocre. However, in this case, Ke Yan was firmly on the Diaoyutai.

Returning to the regular style of play, the Hawks' positional offense mainly uses pick-and-rolls. Paul, Joe Johnson, Josh Smith, and Diaw can develop a variety of pick-and-roll routines.

In comparison, the Cavaliers lack some offensive routines.

Head coach Mike Brown is to blame for this. As a head coach, he will really use a ball-handling core like James who can handle most of the offensive work. If you give him a top singles player like Kobe,

He may not be able to use it well.

Moreover, even if he knew how to use James, he did not bring out the full potential of James. Even if he made a one-star star, Ke Yan felt that he had two brushes. But in fact, he would only "give the ball to"

lebron”.

Many of the jokes used on Coach Bass are actually more appropriate when applied to Mike Brown!

In the last minute of the first quarter, the Eagles led by 7 points at 29:22. Mike Brown replaced James to buy him some rest time. The Eagles suddenly exerted their strength on the defensive end and adopted a high-pressing defensive strategy to face the previous steal.

Wang, Paul caused two consecutive mistakes by Larry Hughes, one was a steal and the other was a line step.

Seize the Cavaliers' mistakes and counterattack twice in a row to score. At the end of the first quarter, the score reached 33:22, with the Eagles leading by 11 points.

At the beginning of the second quarter, the Eagles continued to crush the substitute lineup. Ke Yan sent Eddie House, Joe Johnson, Kittles on the outside, and David Lee and Milicic on the inside to partner.

In the position battle, Joe Johnson is responsible for the main attack in the middle, Milicic is responsible for the side cover, and David Lee cooperates with Joe Johnson in the pick-and-roll. The two of them are the main scoring points of the Eagles' bench.

The Eagles' tactics are not complicated. Only three people move on the strong side. Eddie House and Kittles are fixed on the right side. They wait for opportunities to shoot three-pointers. When their teammates cannot open the ball, they move around to find outside shots.

Chance.

For the Cavaliers, Gooden was in good condition today. He scored 6 points in the first quarter. He responded to James in the paint and rotated the lineup. He and Larry Hughes continued the Cavaliers' firepower.

Let the Eagles further widen the point difference.

"If Gooden shows up, we will encounter some trouble in this series." Snyder said to Ke Yan next to him.

"Well, our defensive expansion is too strong. Gooden continues to score, so it is indeed difficult to defend." Ke Yan also looked a little serious.

In the best years of the Cavaliers, Gooden has always been the main power forward, and he must have two skills. His advantage is that he is excellent at protecting rebounds, has comprehensive pie-eating skills, and can even make big plays after the pick-and-roll.

The disadvantage of Xiao Qiangqi is that his performance is very unstable and he is easily distracted on the defensive end.

This game happened to coincide with one of Gooden's better games, and the Cavaliers also had one more "reliable" scoring point.

The deadlock lasted until the middle of the second quarter, when Kittles suddenly showed his strength. He first hit two consecutive three-pointers from the bottom corner, then stole Derek Anderson and assisted Eddie House for a three-pointer.

The Eagles worked hard and opened the point difference to 17 points!

Seeing this, Mike Brown had to replace James again and urgently started the point-chasing mode.

Of course, Ke Yan would not let Kittles play against James. Posey and James played the same game, replacing Joe Johnson.

If it were in the regular season, with such a big lead in hand, Ke Yan would definitely let the main players rest for a longer period of time. However, in the playoffs, it is common for the main players to die. Seeing that the team's rotation lineup cannot beat the team led by James

The Cavaliers and Ke Yan immediately replaced the main players except Joe Johnson.

Without Joe Johnson, the island tactic still works! Mike Brown arranged for James to defend Posey, the Hawks' "worst" three-pointer, and help the inside to defend the penalty area. However, Posey's best shooting point is the corner, which is crisp and clean.

After hitting a three-pointer, the Cavaliers once again fell into the dilemma of choosing between two poisonous glasses of wine.

After another two minutes, Joe Johnson replaced Kittles. All the Eagles' main players returned to their positions and continued to beat the Cavaliers!

At halftime, the team led 63:42 by 21 points, basically sealing the victory of the game.

G1 is over, but Mike Brown is not sad. He dared to test the formation in the G1 game, which shows that he is ready to lose G1. The purpose is to use a defeat to find the key to winning the series.

And now, he succeeded! He feels that he has found the essence of the "isolated island tactic" and also has a way to break this tactic!

"Just wait, scientist!"

"You are the Lightning Earl, and I am the firefighter!"

In the second half, the Hawks continued to crush the Cavaliers. Atlanta fans have not enjoyed the feeling of winning in the playoffs for many years. They finished this victory as perfect as possible. It is best to shoot a 58 tragedy to let the future

When Big Secret called "58 City", James immediately came to mind.

Mike Brown was immersed in his dream of beating the Hawks in the next round. He didn't realize that the team had been beaten by the Hawks. At the end of the third quarter, the point difference had reached 38 points! It happened to be the same game as the Hornets were beaten by the Nuggets.

, the score difference after 3 quarters is the same.

In the first playoff game of his career, he was beaten badly by the Hawks. James on the bench had a dull expression and was already beginning to doubt his life!

Fortunately, the Hawks did not have Jr. Smith, there was no Kleiza, and even David Lee, the abuser, did not continue to kill the Cavaliers who gave up resistance!

The Eagles, who had few battles, allowed the Cavaliers to recover 11 points in the final quarter, and finally defeated the Cavaliers 123:96, winning the G1 series!

When the bell rang, Ke Yan raised his hands high, closed his eyes tightly, and walked into the court with a victor's attitude. The players behind him jumped up immediately, and then rushed to the five players in the court.

They rushed over and beat each other's chests and shoulders, celebrating wantonly.

The home DJ also played a celebratory song in time. In the exciting and cheerful rhythm, the cheerleaders and mascots once again wiggled on the sidelines. This time they did not have any organization. Everyone spontaneously expressed their happiness.

Feeling.

The fans also cheered for the victory. Some were waving banners and posters, some were blowing trumpets, and some were shouting loudly. Some die-hard fans took off their shirts and kept waving. Many fans didn't care.

Whether they knew each other before or not, now they are all high-fiving each other. The entire Phillips Arena has become a sea of ​​joy, and everyone's face is filled with happy smiles.

In fact, it is so easy for competitive sports to bring joy to people, and the requirements of fans are also that simple. A victory or even a good goal can make them enjoy it for a long time.

ESPN reporter Erin brought her camera crew behind Ke Yan, "Congratulations, Kimi won the first victory of the playoffs. What do you have to say?"

"I hope Eagles fans will remember this day, this is just the beginning!" Ke Yan said arrogantly.

After defeating the opponent by 27 points despite giving up, it doesn't make much sense to be so humble as to say, "The opponent is very strong and we just have to fight against them."

If McGrady hadn't already been showing off, Ke Yan would have said, "I'm already thinking about the next round!",

"Well~, let's comment on the players of the Eagles. Paul won the best of the game. What do you think of it?"

"Paul is a very good player. He perfectly executed my tactical intentions. After the opening, he led the team with his personal offense, and then connected the team's offense with passes. It can be said that he opened the door to victory for us.

"Also, his performance in the regular season was perfect, he didn't look like a first-year rookie at all." Ke Yan was full of praise for Paul, and in the end he did not forget to canvass votes for him.

"What do you think of the next game?"

"The charm of competitive sports lies in its unpredictability. No one knows what will happen before the game is played, but there is no doubt that the Eagles have the upper hand and a higher chance of winning." Ke Yan said ambitiously.

Ke Yan was very "arrogant", and Mike Brown, who lost, did not give in at all: "One loss will not affect our confidence in advancing. Losing is not terrible, the important thing is that we gained from this defeat

We have gained experience. We are confident that we can reverse the gap in the next games."

"If you underestimate the Cavaliers because of a big win, you will definitely pay the price. As for what will happen, let us wait and see!"
