After the timeout, the Cavaliers made a substitution, forward Donyere Marshall appeared and replaced Ilgoskas, and Boozer took the center position.

Although Marshall's form declined and only scored 7.6 points in the playoffs, his three-point shooting percentage of 35.1% is not bad, and he can average 1.4 three-pointers per game. He basically does not enter the penalty area, does not attack with the ball, and focuses on receiving and shooting in the Cavaliers.

During the Eastern Conference Finals, the Cavaliers often played like this in order to maximize the space and help James create a breakthrough opportunity. If the Cavaliers' inside players have no shooting range, Ben Wallace can sit in the penalty area and help Prince double-team James, resulting in a significant reduction in James' offensive efficiency.

On the contrary, if the Cavaliers inside players can shoot, the Pistons' defensive system will have problems, and Big Ben must defend itself. Big Ben cannot play for too short, otherwise Boozer and James will be more difficult to defend.

The Cavaliers' management team building idea is relatively correct. Basketball is never a one-person sport. If you want to win the championship, you have to exert your overall strength, rather than relying on just one star. They have always been committed to how to maximize James' personal abilities without damaging the whole.

Marion is 5cm shorter in height against Marshall and has advantages in other aspects. D'Antoni still chose to substitute. Three-point power forward Tim Thomas appeared and replaced Anthony Parker, and Marion was at the small forward position.

Before the game started, the coaching staff made a plan and adjusted the Cavaliers' lineup. After the Cavaliers joined Marshall, their mobility will be enhanced, and the fast break will not be so easy to play. The tactical effect of positional battles against Thomas is greater. He can also shoot three-pointers, and the effect of being tall and double-teamed James with Marion is better.

The Cavaliers attacked, Flying Squirrel and Boozer played pick-and-roll in the middle, Thomas replaced defense a little slower, Guo Xu was not chasing defense fast enough, Flying Squirrel made two points by a quick stop and jump shot. 11 to 8.

Guo Xu didn't dare to run at full speed, so he was lazy in the last round of the series. He played against Bao Wen most of the time, and today he could only defend against No. 1 position.

Conversely, the Suns can also create opportunities when playing pick-and-roll. Thomas pulled out of the three-point line to attract Marshall to defend, and Guo Xu and Xiaos played pick-and-roll in the middle and got rid of the Flying Squirrels and brought them to the weak side.

Boozer knew that Xiao Si could not stop the rush, so he did not change defense and prepared to cut Xiao Si. Guo Xu dribbled the ball and moved a step across, and jumped in front of the three-point line on the right. Xiao Feishe chased the ball and was slowed down for half a beat, but only slightly interfered, and the ball entered. 14 to 8.

Zhang Heli smiled and said, "Guo Xu's shot is really easy. It's a mistake for the Cavaliers not to change the point guard. Xiao Feishe's ability to interfere with the shooting is too poor. He is shorter than Guo Xu."

Yu Jia said: "The Cavaliers dare not send Damon Jones. Jones is like a shooting guard, with poor defense and no organizational ability. Gibson is the second round rookie this year. He is too young to let a rookie fight against MVP, and the coaching staff dare not take such risks."

Zhang Heli nodded and said, "If the Cavaliers had a good defender, they would not have advanced so hard."

The Cavaliers attacked, and Flying Swift and Boozer played pick-and-roll. Swift changed defense. Flying Swift divided the ball into the middle. Boozer cut the ball with his hands and raised the ball to the side and jumped up. Boozer ran into him and pushed the ball out, hit it from close range, and the referee blew 2+1.

The Suns home fans also gave Boozer some applause, and they all like to watch the opponent's game. Boozer made a free throw, 14-11.

The Cavaliers no longer have a big center. After the pick-and-roll, Guo Xu took it to the right 45 degrees, attracting Boozer to replace the defense and suddenly jumped and accelerated. He threw the ball high towards the rebound with his right hand, rebounding back. Boozer did not jump but just disturbed him. Xiao Si followed up in the middle to receive the rebound ball and received a one-handed dunk.

16 to 11, Guo Xu had the fourth assist.

James couldn't make up for the defense on the wing of this ball. He was too late to let go of Marion, and S was already jumping in the air.

Cavaliers attacked, James forced a breakthrough and squeezed Marion to score a layup. 16 to 13.

It is easier for teammates to play singles if James is pulled apart. If Parker continues to defend himself, he will definitely be exposed, and Marion will not be able to defend alone. James's strength is top-notch in the forwards, and his opponents who often squeeze through tank-like breakthroughs cannot jump up. This is his specialty.

Guo Xu went to the side after playing the pick-and-roll. As long as the opponent couldn't defend himself, the Suns often fought a tactic.

Guo Xu played 50 degrees single, dribbled the ball under his crotch and took a step to the right, and the flying mouse followed.

His movements were very coherent, and he immediately dribbled the ball behind his back and changed direction. The little flying mouse moved horizontally. As soon as his right foot hit the ground, he pulled the ball with his left hand, followed with his right hand to collect the ball, jumped to the right and completely got rid of the little flying mouse, and made a 45-degree jump shot and made a cricket.

18 to 13, Guo Xu scored 8th.

Roy, who was sitting on the sidelines, looked at it. Guo Xu's speed was not fast. He was completely tempo-stop. His movements were like a variant of European steps, with more dribbling and jumping steps behind his back, but the way to pass was to change directions from left to right. Players' jumping steps was to force both legs together, which could also reduce the burden on their knees and legs.

After joining the sun, Roy has been practicing this extraordinary method to reduce sudden change in full speed movement.

When the Cavaliers attacked, Marion let James go two steps to defend from the distance. James still did not dare to take action on the outside and bury his head and forcibly breaking. This time, the three Suns surrounded the penalty area, forcing him to split the ball. Pavlovic, who had never received the ball, had a run back and missed the open three-pointer from the basket.

Marion grabbed the rebound and passed it to Guo Xu. He leaned against the little flying mouse to catch the ball, turned around and entered the three-point line, and made a layup three steps slow.

Xiao Feishi chose to pull people and foul when he was obviously at a loss in the fight. Guo Xu was a "little steel cannon" in his bones and had very strong strength. He picked the basket with his right hand without jumping up, and the ball hit the board and fell into the basket.

The referee blew 2+1, Guo Xu went to the free throw line, and all the fans shouted MVP together.

At this time, Brown had a replacement again, Little Flying Squirrel and Gibson came on.

Zhang Heli said: "The Cavaliers' rookie is here, I think there is nothing I can do about it. Jones is just an ordinary substitute now, and three-pointers are not accurate."

Jones' fate changed. He was just a waste of money with high salary and low energy in NBA. He did not get the opportunity to endorse Li Ning brand sneakers, failed to do activities in China, and enjoyed the treatment of a superstar.

The player who endorsed Li Ning became point guard Steve Blake, who became the spokesperson last season. He was just Guo Xu's substitute when he was with the Suns, but he had a high exposure and popularity in China.

Yu Jia smiled and said, "I think Guo Xu's data in this finals will be very terrifying. Slow and slow play can't be limited by single defense. In theory, MVP should be his in this year's regular season, and the Cavaliers' record is only ranked third in the league."

Guo Xu scored 21-13 after making a free throw, scoring his 11th point.

Guo Xu was a little grateful to the Cavaliers for eliminating the Pistons. If he had played against Billups, he would not have played so easily. After the Cavaliers substitution, he did not have any pressure. Gibson's body was not much stronger than the Little Flying Squirrel, but he was hit on the floor and rubbed.

In Guo Xu's previous life, Gibson's most glorious deeds were in the 2008 All-Star Rookie Challenge and won the MVP. However, his overall strength was average. He had no balls to play in the NBA at the age of 25 and was forced to retire.

He is a point guard who does not break through, and he almost always takes long distances in mid-range and can only break into the penalty area when he is misaligned. Of course, he has no organizational ability, usually passes the ball after halftime, and runs outside the three-point line to wait for opportunities. James attracted double teams and scored one.
