Chapter 216 Duel between Knights 2

After passing the ball, Lin Shuhao started to run along the baseline to the weak side, and Irving followed closely. However, when Lin Shuhao was halfway through, he turned from the basket and rushed to the top of the arc, while Irving

He stopped suddenly and wanted to follow, but was blocked by Taylor Zeller.

At this time, Oden, who was originally fighting in the low post, also handed the ball back to Shuhao Lin.

After receiving the ball, Lin Shuhao made an outside shot. At this time, Miller, who was closest, could only drop Middleton and rush towards Lin Shuhao.

But when he jumped into the air, he discovered that the ball in Lin Shuhao's hand had been transferred to Middleton's hand.

Middleton, who was completely left open, had enough time to adjust, and then took off from the outside and shot a three-pointer.

After the basketball drew an arc in the air, it accurately fell into the basket.

3-0, the completion of this offensive routine also made Da Zhuang stand up and applaud the players on the court.

The biggest contributor to this ball is not Middleton who hit the ball, nor Shuhao Lin who passed the ball, but Oden who played with the ball behind his back. It was Oden's series of actions after receiving the ball that made the Cavaliers focus on defense.

When it comes to him, even Love is already ready to make up defense inside.

And Oden's performance didn't stop there.

In the next Cavaliers' offense, James stepped forward to take over the ball just after Irving passed halftime, and then directly faced Grant. The two were indeed not on the same level, although Grant's performance after joining the Timberwolves surprised many people.

, but faced James' attack, he was still a little overwhelmed. After completing the breakthrough against Grant, James also accelerated directly to the inside.

However, he encountered a strong block from Oden, and James' shot was directly blocked by Oden.

After landing, the two people formed a sharp contrast.

Oden beat his chest and roared, while James, who was a little unprepared, stumbled a little and sat on the ground.

Cavaliers fans in the stands also booed Oden loudly.

James, who was helped up by his teammates, looked a little unhappy and stared at Oden.

Da Zhuang on the sidelines also noticed this scene and shook his head slightly. Damn it, you must rush to the inside if you want to die. To be honest, with Oden guarding the inside, Da Zhuang has never been worried.

One is the great emperor and the other is the little emperor.

Even if the Emperor is not blessed by the buff, he is currently the top center in the league, not to mention that the system always gives him a buff when there is nothing wrong. Then Oden with the blessing of the buff is at the level of a Tyrannosaurus rex at the basket, let alone

You're James, even when playing against the Rockets, Howard can't handle it.

Next is the Timberwolves' offensive possession again.

This time, after Lin Shuhao dribbled the ball to the frontcourt, Tyler Zeller quickly moved up to the high post for a pick-and-roll, followed by Grant, and then Middleton. After the four of them took turns in the pick-and-roll, Lin Shuhao dribbled the ball and accelerated in one step.

After catching the misplaced Love, he encountered James's defense when he entered the paint. But at this time, Shuhao Lin hit the ball hard to the ground again. The basketball came directly and was unknowingly released again, standing on the weak side.

The bottom line is in the hands of Middleton.

At this time, Miller, who was responsible for guarding Middleton, was still guarding Grant, who was dropped by James.

The result was without any surprises. Middleton's basketball fell into the basket accurately again.

After the opening, two consecutive open three-pointers, both by the same player, directly caused Brandt's arrangement for Middleton to completely fail. Miller simply couldn't keep up with Middleton.

Moreover, the Timberwolves' movement is too thin, and you will miss someone if you don't pay attention.

However, anyone with a discerning eye can also see that the main problem lies with Miller.

The movement speed of his feet simply couldn't keep up with the opponent's.

Cavaliers fans watched the team's defensive performance in the stands and were vaguely worried about this game, and this worry continued to be amplified with the subsequent Cavaliers' offense.

Just like a replica of the first offense, James broke through Grant after catching the ball. This time he still suffered from Oden's defense. Although he was not blocked like the first time, under Oden's interference, James'

The shot hit the frame and the rebound was also caught by Tyler Zeller.

And this time the Cavaliers' defense also had problems. After receiving a pass from Tyler Zeller, Middleton and Grant directly formed a two-on-one situation.

It is worth mentioning that this time the two faced Miller.

The final result is self-evident. Grant's one-handed dunk made the score 8-0. Everyone who paid attention to this game found it a bit incredible. They knew that the Timberwolves were strong, but no one expected it.

When facing the Cavaliers on the road, the Timberwolves opened the game 8-0 to the Cavaliers.

In desperation, Blatter could only call a timeout.

On the Cavaliers' bench, Brandt stood there with a tactical board and was frothing at the mouth, while James sat there with a gloomy face. Although he didn't speak, everyone could feel the presence of the Cavaliers.

Different solemnity.

In fact, Blatter is already very generous. If it were in Europe in the past, if the players in his team fell into the same pit twice in a row after the start, he would have cursed them.

After the timeout ended, the Cavaliers also made substitutions.

Blatt replaced Miller with Waiters.

Obviously he was also very disappointed with Miller's performance during that period. It was indeed as expected by Dazhuang. Miller was arranged to play to target Middleton on the Timberwolves' side, but obviously this move failed.

.

The game restarts.

The Cavaliers' offense finally got the Cavaliers' first points after the game started.

Facing Lin Shuhao's defense, Irving took advantage of Waiters' screen, accelerated and then stopped and changed direction, then stepped inward from the free throw line and scored the ball with a throw.

It's just that for the Cavaliers, this offense is just a drop in the bucket. Facing the Timberwolves' offense, the Cavaliers' defense can't stop the Timberwolves at all, especially on the inside. Although Oden didn't score much after the start, he was involved in the Cavaliers' offense.

But he did his best to prevent attention.

Varejao alone is not Oden's opponent at all. As long as Love is pulled to the outside, the Timberwolves will definitely hand the ball to Oden. And once Love double-teams inside, then this is Taylor Ze

The role of Le is reflected.

With Tyler Zeller opening up the perimeter even though he was left open, everyone knew the Cavaliers were in big trouble.
