"Go, go, go, go meet our opponent in the Eastern Conference semifinals."
Acting head coach Mark Osorski encouraged the players in the locker room.
After a week of rest, training, and adjustments, the Cavaliers are already in peak condition, and targeted training has made everyone improve, and everyone is full of confidence.Coupled with the good atmosphere in the Cavaliers, it is too difficult to defeat such a Cavaliers.
In the Eastern Conference semifinals, the first game of the series between the Cavaliers and the Pistons was played at the Quicken Loans Center of the Cleveland Cavaliers. No matter which team the Cavaliers met, in terms of record, they all had home court advantage.
"Cavs fans, welcome to the game site, let me introduce the Cavaliers lineup."
The Cavaliers' on-site DJ teacher Tony shouted passionately with a long tail: "First of all, welcome the backup center Tony Batty."
"Backup point guard Kevin Ollie, backup forward Eric Williams, backup forward Kedrick Brown, backup forward Darius Miles."
"Next up is the starting lineup, center Zajunas Ilgauskas."
"Starting power forward, Carlos Boozer who won the Most Improved Player Award this season."
Boozer trotted onto the court and waved to the fans. The most improved player award announced a few days ago went to Boozer.
From 10.6 points per game last season to 22 points per game this season, 7.8 rebounds last season to 11.6 now, and more importantly, Boozer's efficiency and plus/minus this season have improved It is very obvious that he deserves the Most Improved Player award.
"Welcome next from St. Mary's High School, the son of Cleveland, the little emperor LeBron James!"
"It is worth mentioning that the best rookie of the season is shared by Flash Ling and LeBron. No matter what, they are the pride of the Cavaliers."
At the end of the regular season, the selection of the best rookie has also been released. Considering that Lingbo is not drafted, many people think that it should be given to James, but Lingbo's performance has overwhelmed all rookies, so the league decided to let the two share it. team's.
In the regular season of this season, Ling Bo and James connected more than 3 times per game. The cooperation between the two was tacit understanding. Ling Bo passed the ball to James more than a dozen times a game, and James always gave Ling Bo 4-5 assists. .
"Let us use the warmest applause, please name the scoring leader, assists leader, steals leader, best rookie, best defensive player, first-team player, All-Star starter, All-Star dunk leader, All-Star three-pointer leader this season , All-star mvp, Flash Ling~bo~"
The game reached a climax before it even started. With the series of prefixes like Ling Bo, the name alone can bring the scene to a climax.
The regular season ended and the playoffs began. Various awards and honors were selected. In addition to sharing the best rookie with James, Ling Bo also won the best defensive player. He averaged the first steals per game. With a negative efficiency value, this best defensive player is well deserved.
This season's double first team Limbo is also selected, the best first team includes: Limbo, Kobe, Paul Pierce, Tim Duncan, Shaquille O'Neal.
The second team of the best team: Iverson, Tracy McGrady, Carter, Garnett, Yao Ming.
As for Jermaine O'Neal, Kidd and others made it to the third team, and James was also selected to the third team.
The best defensive team is basically these people, Limbo, Kobe, Garnett, Duncan, Ben Wallace.
Back to the game, after the All-Star Weekend, the grievances between Ben Wallace of the Pistons, Limbo, James and others have eased, but the grievances between Billups, Hamilton and the Cavaliers are still there.
Pistons starting lineup, Chauncey Billups, Richard Hamilton, Tayshaun Prince, Mehmet Okur, Ben Wallace.
Poor No. 2003 pick Darko Milicic has to sit on the bench. I am afraid that the Pistons are the team that regrets the most in the [-] Platinum draft. Unfortunately, there is no regret medicine in the world.
The Pistons have learned a lot now, and they no longer have the habit of speaking harshly before the game, otherwise Ling Bo will be angered, and they will be miserable.
At the beginning of the game, the Pistons took the lead in attacking, and Billups was not afraid of Limbo's approach. The Pistons had more offensive points, and he could find someone to pass the ball to.
If Limbo's performance can be restrained and Hamilton, Prince and others can play, the Pistons can still play.
However, Billups certainly did not expect that their style of play and tactics have been thoroughly studied by Mark Osorsky in the past few days.
Hamilton's offense was stalked by Ira Newbell. In terms of size and physical fitness, Newbell didn't lose either. The only thing he lacked was speed and technology.
However, as long as he restrains Hamilton and gives Ling Bo room to defend, he will complete the task.
With Ling Bo's speed and reaction, assisting defense is not a problem.
As a result, Hamilton didn't believe in evil and passed back to Billups, who was intercepted by Limbo halfway.
It's not the first time we've fought each other, so why are you so careless?
In fact, this is also in the script of the Cavaliers. The Cavaliers switched offenses. The Pistons did not double-team Limbo. With the Celtics as the forward, other teams should not double-team him now.
Lingbo hit the penalty area, unstoppable, Ben also jumped up and blocked the block without mercy, Lingbo in the air took advantage of the opportunity to give the ball to the nearest Boozer.
Boozer caught the ball with a small throw and hit the first ball of the game.
A good guard can revitalize the whole team, just like last year's Kidd, who can lead the Nets to the finals.
The Pistons don't restrict Limbo, nor can they. It's just that their tactics, running positions, and defense are all seen through. It is impossible to prevent anyone other than Limbo.
In the second round of offense, the Pistons still failed to score. If it is really better than defense, the Cavaliers are not far behind.
When it was the Cavaliers' turn to attack, Hamilton actually double-teamed James.
They thought that James and Boozer were Limbo's right-hand men, and if one was cut off, Limbo would not be so scary.
But Newbell is empty, and it will be a long time if Lingbo doesn't pass the ball again. Newbell has made great progress under the pressure training given by Lingbo recently.
Facing the air defense now, he scored two points with a mid-range shot.
"Thank you, big brother."
After Newbell made the shot, he smiled at Hamilton.
The knights who are all soldiers are the most terrifying.
After the two offenses, the defensive rhythm of the Pistons was completely chaotic. The various defensive routines prepared before the game were easily resolved by the Cavaliers, and in the two rounds, they did not score a point and were beaten 4-0 by the Cavaliers.
Hamilton panicked and didn't know what to do?
Double-team Limbo?No, let's not talk about whether it can be blocked or not, just open and Newbell, even if they shoot 50.00% of the open, the Pistons can't afford it.
Double-team James?same result.
If Hamilton concentrates on defending Newbell, then James and Limbo will have a better chance.
