Chapter 329: Different opponents, same rhythm

The Cavaliers, after all, are a team that has been organized for only a few months. The players are not very familiar with each other. They have only passed a few preseason games and daily training and running lineups. They are far from able to cooperate and cooperate with each other. On par with the Wizards.
Whether it was Irving or Love, they were the main players of the ball attack before. When James returned to the Cavaliers and took over the ball as a matter of course, the two had to start to increase the time of playing the offense. This is certainly not short. Can be adapted within a time.
Especially for Irving, Wang Xiao attaches great importance to this super-clear Drew uncle. After all, this is the most stable scoring point on the outside of the Cavaliers, so Klay Thompson has followed the mark almost all the time.
As a result, the situation on the court has basically become the mode of James singles fighting alone, heads-up all the Wizards.
At this moment, James was lost and collapsed.
what the is it? Why no matter how many wave of teammates I change, when playing with the Wizards, it seems like there is no teammate?
This really does not blame James, and it is shameless to blame Wang Xiao.
The Wizards currently have three of the best defensive players alone, and as many as six players have been selected for the best defensive lineup. This lineup is unprecedented.
Although James’ teammates are very good, they have not reached the top level. Wade, the pinnacle of the Heat, may be counted as one, but Irving, who has just played two seasons, obviously cannot be counted, and Love has passed the peak period. Nor can Howard.
Surrounded by this group of defensive tyrants, unless they are in excellent condition and feel hot, ordinary players will inevitably be seriously disturbed.
In the entire Cavaliers, only James can score steadily under such a purgatory defensive lineup.
This can also be seen from the other corner of James's horror. Wang Xiao is completely unimaginable. Surrounded by Leonard, George, Green, Jimmy Butler and others, this guy can still as usual Steady scoring, shooting percentage has not even fallen below 50%, it is simply a monster.
But even the monsters, under the Wizards' celestial nets, can only growl in anger and frustration, watching the team's points be widened a little bit.
At the end of the first quarter, James scored 12 points on 4-of-6 shooting, but apart from him, the Cavaliers' other starters performed very badly.
Howard made 2 of 6 shots, Irving made 1 of 5 shots, Love made 1 of 3 shots, and the three combined only contributed 10 points to the free throw. As for jr. Smith, who was regarded as an outside fixed point, the first game even once No shots.
In the first quarter, the Cavaliers scored 22 points. If according to the ordinary team, this score is not high, but it is barely enough.
But this is the game with the Wizards. As the league's fastest offensive rhythm and rotation speed, the Wizards have averaged about 115 points per game in the past few seasons, averaging close to 29 points per quarter .
And the first quarter of this game is no exception, the Wizards scored a total of 30 points in the whole game.
At 30:22, the Wizards trailed by 8 points in the first quarter.
In the subsequent second quarter, the situation did not improve at all. Owen, Howard, Love and others began to adapt to the rhythm of the game gradually, and found a little feel.
But the offensive rhythm of the Wizards will not be stagnant.
In the second quarter, the Wizards again scored 33 points, while the Cavaliers scored 27 points.
At the end of the halftime, instead of narrowing the points difference, it further expanded to more than double digits.
auzw.com Without any waves, the game falls into the rhythm the Wizards are most used to.
The substitute matchup also ended with the Wizards' unsustainable victory.
Although Jamison retired, Caron Butler was also greatly discounted due to injury and age, but the Wizards' backup line has fully grown.
The Isaiah Thomas, Jimmy Butler and Chandler Parsons teamed up to form the Wizards’ tribute line. When the three are on the field at the same time, the Wizards’ offensive efficiency is even more than the starting main force. Even more terrifying.
Of course, this does not mean that the strength of the three has exceeded the Wizards' starting power, but the Cavaliers' bench strength is really worse than the starting.
The point difference reached more than 20 points under the power of the trident.
The gentle smile on David Blatter's face has been "swayed" and disappeared, replaced by a dignified and iron blue face.
From the pure paper strength point of view, the Cavaliers are fully capable of playing against the Wizards, but the result is completely without suspense. None of the Big Four except James has shown its due strength.
The Wizards' fans have cheered loudly and happily.
Different opponents, the same three-section one-wave rhythm, no matter who is standing in front of them, the result will not have any change!
The Heat during the Big Three couldn’t stop the Wizards, and the Cavaliers under the Big Four couldn’t. They were the strongest team in the league!
...
In the fourth quarter, the Cavaliers only resisted a bit of "sex" and replaced them with a substitute to surrender.
In the end, at the end of the game, the score was 124:99.
In the regular season opener, the Wizards used a 25-point victory at home to tell the league that even the Big Four are not enough for them to play!
James scored 34 points, 11 rebounds and 9 assists in the quasi-three double figures of the whole game. The data is impressive, but his teammates have once again been criticized.
Irving made 6 of 17 shots, scoring 18 points and 4 assists on free throws.
Love made 6 of 12 shots. Although he guaranteed a 50% shooting rate, he only had 14 points and 6 rebounds.
As for the team's second-largest giant, Howard, who was given high hopes, just handed over a 3-of-10 shooting, 9 points, 13 rebounds and 4 blocks.
If compared with Gobert who is against him, this data is not bad, because Gobert has only 5 points, 6 rebounds and 2 blocks in the whole game, and also received 5 fouls, which were basically eaten against Howard. of.
But as the league's first center, compare with a rookie rookie in the first grade? This is too shameful.
Although Gobert's statistics are not very good, but his defensive ability on the court has made many people have a sense of brightening.
In Howard's physical confrontation, although Gobert was at a disadvantage, he never feared confrontation. Every time he tried his best to interfere, it made Howard's scoring efficiency in the interior greatly reduced.
The height of the "color" and the amazing arm span make Gobert's defensive range extremely large. If he spends more time in the league and cultivates the defensive awareness and skills of the nba level, it is like an inside defender!
