Chapter 757: Chapter 757

You are indeed still on the Warriors, but just now during the attack, it seemed like I didn’t see you. It’s as if you were there but not there.

The Warriors were caught off guard by the Cavaliers’ sudden tactical adjustment, and Cole’s fragmented on-the-spot command couldn’t handle this unexpected situation.

The Cavaliers continued their efforts, and by halftime, they were already leading the Warriors by 12 points, 58 to 46.

In the second half, the Warriors didn’t go with a small lineup.

Or rather, after trading for Cousins, Cole essentially gave up the small lineup.

Because he couldn’t possibly bench Cousins, it would be a loss, and with Cousins’ temper, if Cole really did that, Cousins would surely lash out on the spot.

Cousins: I’ve fired more coaches than I can count on one hand.

Although Cole was poor on-the-spot, he adjusted quite well at halftime.

After returning in the second half, the Warriors increased the pick-and-roll tactics between Curry and Cousins.

Cousins’ pick-and-roll ability is much better than the likes of Howard. He can block people, and his timing for rolling down is also very good.

At this time, with the Cavaliers using Covington at the four, it’s clearly a struggle, and more importantly, Curry got many drill opportunities against Jokic.

Of course, the Warriors couldn’t stop Hansen and Jokic’s pick-and-rolls either.

Both teams switched tactics, but they still engaged in an offensive battle this quarter, and neither wanted to bench their main players first.

When this quarter reached around 10 minutes, the score remained at a 10-point difference.

Although playing greatly exhausted Hansen and Jokic, as long as they maintained the advantage during the substitute connection stage, the Cavaliers could secure this opening win.

In the last minute of the quarter, both sides began to rotate their players.

With the rotation, the Cavaliers attacked first this time.

Ross came in utilizing West’s screen to drive into the paint and draw a foul on McGee.

Because of injuries, Ross didn’t meet fans’ expectations, but after so many years in the League, he has surely improved.

You could see his ball-handling skills from the first half, and this play just now was his experience.

Livingston continued to post up on Ross and made another turnaround fadeaway shot.

Ross missed a breakthrough, and the Warriors seized the opportunity for a defensive counterattack, but West was quick and directly fouled early, sending Iguodala to the free-throw line.

Talking about who understands the Warriors the most, it’s these former players. Iguodala’s free throws are the least accurate on the Warriors.

Iguodala made one of two free throws, Dedmon secured the rebound, and the Cavaliers had the last possession of this quarter.

Ross let the clock wind down in frontcourt, initiating the attack with 8 seconds left.

This time Brown was directing from the sidelines, and the Warriors gave Ross a meter of spacing to defend.

Ross’s breakthrough is strong, but his three-point shooting is terrible.

This forced the Warriors to put a targeted defense on him with his performance.

Ross tried to use a pick-and-roll to break through but had no chance, and in the end, he had to shoot a three-pointer.

It was a forced choice, and as the ball went up, the red light on the sideline immediately lit up.

But to everyone’s surprise, the ball actually went in!

With this three-pointer going in, Ross raised his personal score of the night to 16 points! The source of thɪs content is 𝕟𝕠𝕧𝕖𝕝✶𝓯𝓲𝓻𝓮✶𝓷𝓮𝓽

Ross was exceptionally excited after the shot, tilting his head back to the sky and roaring with fury.

Young no more, yet the flowers bloom again!
