Build a Dream Dynasty

Blatter's stubbornness is reflected in the fact that the Cavaliers' dual-core leadership is still unable to do what they want. Stevens took the initiative to replace George and Leonard to improve the team's offensive stability and defensive coverage. .

With two top wing defenders, the Nets' defensive system is also relatively changeable. If Robertson is at the power forward position, he will focus on outside oppression, using high-intensity oppression and rotation to double-team part of the stroke, and Standing at the power forward position is Ilyasova, who is strong in offense and weak in defense. George and Leonard can also provide some defense protection without major mistakes in their own defense zones. This is also the most used defensive strategy by the Nets this season.

Facing the joint attack of Teodosic and George, although Irving can also contribute wonderful points, the biggest problem with Irving is that he does not use a more concise way to score. It has improved a lot, but without the support of physical fitness to complete some easier scoring, Irving has exhausted his physical strength after doing a whole set of fancy moves, and it is difficult to maintain offensive efficiency for a long time. This is also the reason why Irving is suitable as an assassin to contribute the deadliest blow, but cannot be used as a control center to support the whole audience.

When Curry, Porzingis and others, who were well rested, returned to the court, the Nets' offensive rhythm suddenly accelerated. As an assistant coach, Tyronn Lue desperately put forward his own opinions to Blatter. He must slow down the rhythm of the game and must not fall into the rhythm of the Nets. At the same time, he must increase the pressure on Curry. With the strength of the pinch, the game can be lost, but Curry must "die"!

"Winning" Curry has always been what James hopes to do. Immediately, James took the lead in the game and started to attack Curry more. And after the team did not chase after Green, the Nets' main lineup had no one who could help Curry control the ball. George and Leonard's basketball IQs were slightly lacking compared to Green's, and they did not do a good job of responding, resulting in Curry made a mistake and was intercepted by James in the backcourt, completing a dunk!

Using more aggressive tactics to exchange physical strength, all the members of the Cavaliers shoulder a heavier burden in order to consume Curry's physical energy. This is affirmation of Curry's core role in the Nets, and it is somewhat underestimated. For the rest of the Nets, when Robertson was able to unscrupulously attack the Cavaliers' inside lane and score a layup, the Cavaliers' defensive loopholes were already very obvious.

But even in this adversity, the Cavaliers achieved two points. First, the team successfully limited Curry's threat and did not allow the Nets to bring up the rhythm of the game. Improved the Nets' defensive system and helped the team bite the score.

Throughout the second quarter of the game, Curry only found three shots and hit one goal. On the contrary, Irving shot 5 of 6 shots in the second half of the second quarter and scored 14 points in a single quarter. Looking at the ball from the perspective of "a layman watching the excitement" may even come to the view that "Irving is better than Curry"!

However, the fact is that Curry restrained 70% of the Cavaliers' defensive energy, helped George, Porzingis and others get a good shooting environment, and the Nets have always maintained a double-digit lead.

Stevens has also seen the game strategy of the Cavaliers, but also thinks that in the case of headwinds, such a desperate approach may not be wrong.

Many times, Stevens himself has a habit of playing games with himself, that is, imagining a possible team to fight against the Nets in his hands. In his mind, there are probably two ideas, one of which is to use Irving's singles to consume Curry's physical strength as much as possible, forcing Curry to have physical problems in the second half of the game and even the series. And the Cavaliers in front of them are doing even more ruthlessly than they imagined.

In response to the Cavaliers' approach, the Nets made a change. Stevens replaced Robertson with Teodosic, and simply responded with one big and four small. Didn't the Cavaliers aim at the Nets missing a point of organization? Then add an organization point to improve the mobility of the team on the field. It is true that in this way, George needs to go to the power forward position to confront Griffin head-on, and there will definitely be some problems, but George also has a dislocation advantage on the offensive end!

Stevens simply changed the formation and caught the Cavaliers by surprise. The liberated Curry led the team to an 8:0 attack wave against the Cavaliers in 90 seconds, widening the point difference to 19 points , which also forced the Cavaliers to call a timeout.

It's just that, compared to the straightforward and decisive change of the Nets, the Cavaliers are more troublesome. If you follow the Nets as a big and four small, should you keep Griffin or Thompson in the inside position? The former is a superstar, one of the team's cards, and the head coach took him as a discard for a change. It's okay to win the game, but if the effect is not good, the pressure will be great! And if the latter is replaced, the team's performance on the defensive end cannot be guaranteed. In addition, the Cavaliers do not have such a strong strike force to fight against the combination of Leonard + George of the Nets, or in other words, the combination of Middleton and Antetokounmpo, Durant and Dreaming Green can be compared with it Other than that, no one else has this strength!

After hesitating again and again, Blatter still did not make adjustments to the lineup, but made some more detailed arrangements for Griffin's offense. In the subsequent games, although Griffin made some contributions on the offensive end, but on the defensive end, he was targeted even worse by the Nets. And broke into the inside line eloquently, scored a layup, and opened the point difference to 20+.

Regarding whether to follow the adjustment of the Nets and play the first and fourth juniors, Tyronn Lue himself did not have a conclusion. However, after the point difference was further widened, Tyronn Lue realized the seriousness of the problem!

If you want to fight against this Nets team, you must be able to keep up with the opponent's players in terms of speed, otherwise it is not a matter of replacing Griffin, you just replace the old Richard Jefferson, Still being hanged and beaten!

The two sides have entered a balance of power. The Cavaliers have just adapted to the offense of the Nets. Stevens replaced Teodosic with Joe Johnson and continued to strengthen the offense. The outside shooting ability of this lineup is stronger. The Cavaliers have two inside points. After one is pulled out, the height of the remaining one is much lower than that of Porzingis. Disadvantage!

Curry and George received the ball and scored three-pointers in a row. With 5 minutes left in the final quarter, the point difference came to 26 points, and the game entered garbage time.

The Cavaliers have worked hard enough, and even created some troubles for the Nets through some tactical design and arrangement in the second and third quarters. However, the Nets' explosive scoring power is indeed terrible. The imbalance and Blatter's short-term mistakes were caught by the Nets and caused a huge blow, which is really desperate.

James, Irving, and Griffin were replaced first, and in the next round, the Big Four of the Nets also all ended. In the end, the Cavaliers lost to the Nets 111:133 at home, leaving only one game behind the Nets!
