The opening three-pointer in basketball

The Cavaliers fans in the Credit Center were excited. They felt that their side was stronger and that the so-called strongest newcomer Bai Yi was no match for Irving.

Everyone was very excited and screamed strangely.

Many people even started calling Irving MVP.

Irving heard the shouts of the fans and was very excited, waving his hands from time to time to encourage the atmosphere.

At the same time, he rushed to the frame even more crazily. He still knew that Baiyi's defense was not something he could easily offend, so he always switched positions to play against Rubio, Johnson, and Billis.

Under such circumstances, Irving's second quarter was similar to the first quarter, still carrying the Cavaliers forward.

As for the Timberwolves, the players' condition was slightly better in the second quarter. Rubio went crazy and scored several three-pointers in a row.

At the end of the first half, the Timberwolves not only did not open up the score, but also narrowed the point difference slightly. The difference between the two teams is now six points.

When the whistle sounded, Irving came off the court with his teammates and subconsciously forgot to look at the scoreboard.

Cavaliers 58:52 Timberwolves.

The big numbers are very dazzling.

The two teams are separated by six points.

Irving was a little confused, frowned, then rubbed his eyes, looked over again, and then confirmed that it was really 58:52. Not only did they not open up the score in the second quarter, but they also allowed the Timberwolves to chase by two points.

The referee looked indifferent and the fourth official had no reaction.

The fans are still very excited.

No one thought there was a problem, the score was correct.

"mvp,mvp,mvp."

Some fans shouted at Irving, which made him feel a little better. He planned to study it carefully later.

Back in the lounge, Irving took the statistics sheet and found that he had scored 28 points in the first half.

Bai Yi only scored three points.

Bai Yi also had few assists, just two assists.

He didn't break out, but Rubio scored 12 points in the second quarter, and Pekovic's performance was also very stable.

When the substitutes from the other two teams came on the court, the Timberwolves' substitutes seemed to be playing more energetically.

Owen felt a little unhappy.

He felt that it was not that he was not as good as he wanted, but that his teammates were not doing their best.

If his teammates had performed better, the Cavaliers might have led by twenty points.

Thinking of this, Owen became even more unhappy.

He was in a bad mood and didn't even have the heart to listen to Mike Brown's technical and tactical instructions.

Others seemed quite satisfied with this takeover.

They were talking and laughing.

Owen became more and more irritated as he watched.

He stood up dissatisfied, "Guys, we are only ahead by six points and have not won the game yet. We can't be so careless."

Everyone looked at Owen in confusion, they didn't understand what Owen was doing.

The Cavaliers are currently last in the standings, and the Timberwolves are second in the standings.

Now leading the Timberwolves by six points, isn't it worth being happy?

As for the result of the game.

Everyone doesn't really care.

To be honest, they feel that the Cavaliers will definitely not make the playoffs this season, so winning or losing doesn't matter, as long as they have money and don't get injured.

So no one else can understand Irving's thoughts.

However, there are also those who are smart. Thinking that Bai Yi is number one and Irving is second on the rookie list, they feel that they understand Irving and hurriedly said: "Kyrie is right. You guys play hard. We must help Kyrie."

Kaili defeated Bai Bai and let fans all over the world know that Kyrie is better than Bai Bai."

Help me defeat Bai?

Owen's face turned cold.

Although he does have to defeat Bai Yi, he is him and the team is the team.

Privately, he still thinks that he is helping the team play.

And he doesn't need anyone else's help.

Who is Owen?

The smoothest dribbling player in the league, does he still need help?

He rolled his eyes at the teammate who spoke and did not answer.

The teammates all felt baffled. They could not understand the thinker's thoughts. They shook their heads speechlessly and then stopped talking.

The atmosphere in the home team lounge suddenly became much colder.

Mike Brown was probably the person who understood Irving the best. He sighed, said nothing more, and then went out.

He explained the techniques and tactics, and I thought Irving also listened.

If he knew that Owen was in a daze just now, he would definitely tell it again.

He actually saw that Irving rushed for two consecutive quarters and his physical fitness dropped a lot. In the third quarter, he hoped that Irving would relax a little, share the ball more, and come back to win the game in the fourth quarter.

Owen didn't hear what he said.

At this time, Wenzi thought that in the second half, he must increase his intensity and continue to impact, and he must decide the outcome in one fell swoop.

With this thought in mind, Irving covered his face with a towel coldly. He was too lazy to deal with these vulgar and incompetent teammates.

…

In the home team lounge, the players gathered together to listen to Adelman's technical and tactical explanation.

Adelman first affirmed the attitude and performance of everyone in the first half.

Then ask Bai Yi how it feels.

He could see that Bai Yi didn't have a bad touch, but was deliberately holding back the blow.

Bai Yi chuckled, "Leave the second half to me."

Others have been with Bai Yi for a long time, and they also know that Bai Yi means to finish the game in the second half.

Rubio thought of Irving and couldn't help but sympathize with this guy. Irving probably didn't know that Bai Yi intended to let him be consumed, so he would attack again in the second half.

Adelman nodded, "Very good. The second half will be left to Bai. As for the rest of us, we have to cooperate with him and we will try to win this game."

He then also placed some demands on the defensive end.

In the Timberwolves' defense, only Bai Yi and Pekovic can do what Adelman wants.

It’s not that others don’t want to do it, it’s just that their strength doesn’t allow it and they can’t complete it.

However, their defense is not good, and Adelman still has to make arrangements. He still hopes that these people can improve to some extent, otherwise the Timberwolves' defense will be really bad.

Bai Yi listened quietly to Adelman's words. When Adelman finished explaining, he closed his eyes and then recalled the first half of the game.

Baiyi had no chance to defend Irving alone in the first half.

The Cavaliers now have Irving as the main point guard. If Irving can be restricted, it will greatly weaken the Cavaliers' offensive capabilities.

But Owen is avoiding him, what can he do?

"Should I prod him?"

Bai Yi thought about Owen's character and couldn't help but have some ideas.

He then considered other people and had more and more ideas in his mind.

The Cavaliers are not a strong team. If they can make some unexpected contributions on the defensive end, it will definitely damage the Cavaliers' morale.

The best thing about Bai Yi's defense is his steals and his speed.

He can use his speed advantage to do some defense that catches offensive players off guard and is unexpected.

Of course, this requires keen observation and understanding of offensive routines.

Bai Yi felt that there was no problem in this aspect. Through his observations in the first half, he already understood the Cavaliers' routines.

The second half can be harvested.
