Nba: My Power Is Invincible!

Chapter 2 Against James, Who Is The Strongest Rookie In The 2003 Class?

He had already obtained the strengthening points in previous games, and the effect of using them was remarkable.

This is also the key to his ability to firmly establish himself as the main force in the Raptors.

"Great, I must get these 10 strengthening points."

"Before, I just planned to gain the upper hand in the duel with James, and didn't care too much about winning or losing."

"But now it seems that this game is not only about suppressing James' performance, but also leading the team to defeat the Cavaliers."

"With strengthening points, we can make up for our current shortcomings in football skills."

The Hercules system gives Lin Yue full strength, which also results in his technical movements not being soft enough.

As a power forward, he has poor offensive footwork under the basket and poor dribbling skills, which will result in insufficient offensive ability at critical moments.

However, with "strengthening points" these weaknesses can be gradually strengthened step by step.

For Lin Yue, who is eager to improve his personal strength, victory in this game cannot be missed. He must suppress LeBron James' performance.

Lin Yue thought silently in his heart, raised his legs and walked towards Vince Carter beside him.

"Guys, you have to play well in this game and show your best competitive state. We can only win this game, not lose!"

"No matter how good the Cavaliers performed on the court tonight, I'm going to make sure they take this win away from Cleveland!"

The Cavaliers are the team with the worst three-point efficiency in the league this season.

Since Cavaliers coach Silas doesn't like players who shoot three-pointers, this makes it difficult for the Cavaliers to play against the wind.

In other words, as long as the Raptors can take the lead at the beginning, the Cavaliers will become very uncomfortable on the court.

However, this game is too important for Lin Yue. Players with their own systems like LeBron James are themselves an "x" factor and will explode at any time.

After all, there are two players on the Cavaliers whose three-point shooting percentage has reached 40%, and among them is the famous "Three-Point King" Kapono.

Fortunately, Cavaliers head coach Paul Silas looked down on Kapono and only gave Kapono a few minutes of playing time in each game.

A group of rough guys from the Cavaliers all got into the paint, forcing James to average 9.4 mid-range shots per game.

No one on the outside can produce stable output after receiving James' pass, and can only rely on Boozer's mid-range shot to continue the firepower.

With this kind of coaching, coupled with the use of LeBron James, it's no wonder that the Cavaliers have the lowest three-point shooting percentage in the league this season.

Otherwise, when Kapono at his peak is paired with a player like LeBron James who can score points, the Cavaliers' outside firepower will directly rise to a higher level.

Silas prefers a "black and tough" player who is tough on defense, rather than a "three-point man" like Kapono who can shoot wherever he goes.

Carter saw Lin Yue's resolute face, smiled and patted Lin Yue's shoulder.

"Hey Lin, of course I know how important this game is to you. The rivalry between you and LeBron is being talked about throughout the league."

"Don't worry, we will fight however you want today. Compared to the Lakers, guys like the Cavaliers are simply weak teams."

"Unless that bastard Shaq joins the Cavaliers now, no one can make us feel threatened!"

Hearing Vince Carter's confident answer, Lin Yue was obviously relieved.

Although everything will depend on strength after the start of the game, when his teammates are relaxed enough, the pressure on Lin Yue will undoubtedly be less.

After all, basketball is a team sport.

Rather than maximizing individual heroism, it’s better to let the entire team blossom more.

Lin Yue knows that his current strength is not up to the level of dominance in the penalty area like the peak shark.

If he wants to suppress LeBron James, the only tactical core of the Cavaliers, he cannot do without the help of his teammates.

Otherwise, even if the team finally succeeds in winning the game, James will likely have to rely on the tactical system to "brush" more comprehensive data.

At that time, the "10 Strengthening Points" reward task will result in failure of the challenge, which Lin Yue cannot accept in any case.

"Hey, don't worry Lin, I'm going to lock down LeBron tonight and he can't score on me."

"This is a game where you just have to be ready to win and don't worry about that LeBron guy."

Jalen Rose shamelessly squeezed past, patted his chest and boasted.

Seeing Jaylen Rose bragging without a blush or a heartbeat, Lin Yue really had a headache. He even seriously doubted that this guy would be beaten by James later!

The Cavaliers’ starting lineup for this game is:

Martin Cliffs, Kedrick Brown, James, Boozer, "Big Z" Ilgauskas.

Raptors starting lineup: Alvin Williams, Vince Carter, Jaylen Rose, Lin Yue and Chris Bosh.

After the game started, Ilgauskas, who is 2.21 meters tall, succeeded in jumping the ball.

Help the Cavaliers take the lead in gaining the offensive ball.

"Big Z" is currently one of the tallest center players in the league.

There are centers that are taller than "Big Z", but there is only one center that is taller and better than "Big Z", and that is second-year rookie Dayao.

As insiders, both of them have solid basic skills, but Dayao's offensive efficiency is higher than "Big Z" Ilgauskas.

Ilgauskas averaged 15 points, 8 rebounds and 2.5 blocks per game this season.

Fortunately, "Big Z" only weighs 108 kilograms, and Lin Yue is much stronger than him.

He looked as thin as a telephone pole.

Even if he is over 2.2 meters tall, it will be difficult to achieve O'Neal's inside dominance.

The Cavaliers advanced with the ball in the middle, and Cleaves immediately passed the ball to LeBron James for organization.

But he moved to the left corner.

However, Cliffs doesn’t have any three-point shooting ability.

This season, he shot 0% from three-point range and averaged 0.3 attempts per game.

Until now, he has not made a three-pointer.

This undoubtedly relieves Alvin Williams' defensive pressure a lot, and he can even double-team James who breaks through to the inside.

Lin Yue has not figured out until now what kind of bullshit Silas has in his head. He will let Cliffs be the starting point guard partner with LeBron.

Without 30 years of experience in cerebral thrombosis, it is absolutely impossible to do it.

Although the Cavaliers do not have a very good point guard on the back line, apart from Cliffs, only Kevin Ollie can barely use it.

Kevin Ollie has a 44% three-point shooting rate this season, which is much more comfortable for Cliffs to use.

It's a pity that Paul Silas hates three-pointers.

He would rather use Cleaves, who is more defensive, than replace a guard partner who can help LeBron James space the floor.

Looking at it this way, it’s not without reason that Silas was sprayed with shit by Jamie after class.

James stood outside the three-point line and dribbled the ball, and Boozer stepped forward to help him pick and roll.

This has been the Cavaliers' favorite offensive play this season, with LeBron James and Boozer launching pick-and-rolls in the high post.

After the pick-and-roll, whether it is James' breakthrough or Boozer's mid-range shot, they can play a huge offensive role in the small pick-and-roll system.

Using the pick-and-roll, James accelerated inside and began to break through.

However, for the Cavaliers' trick that has not changed for a century, the Raptors coaching staff had already made defensive arrangements before the game.

As soon as James bypassed the pick-and-roll and broke through inside, Lin Yue moved laterally and got stuck in James' breakthrough route.

At the same time, Jaylen Rose and Lin Yuel immediately switched defenses and took up the position of defending Boozer.

Boozer's main offensive method is mid-range shooting.

The current second-year rookie Boozer has not yet developed a good low-post offensive ability.

Jalen Rose doesn’t have to worry about Boozer beating him with the ball after switching defenses.

In addition, the Cavaliers' back line's three-point shooting percentage is very poor.

Both Cliffs and Brown have poor three-point shooting percentages.

are 0 and 33% respectively.

That's right, Cliffs hasn't made a three-pointer yet this season.

Brown, who shot 33% from the field, only made 1.8 three-pointers this season.

If the Cavaliers can't make three-pointers, then the Raptors' defensive strategy will be considered successful.

As long as Jackson can block Boozer's open shot, it will be difficult for the Cavaliers to create scoring opportunities directly through pick-and-rolls.

The only test of the entire defensive system is whether Lin Yue can defend LeBron James' singles one-on-one after switching defenses.

In theory, the Cavaliers would create mismatches on offense through the pick-and-roll.

But Lin Yue's wingspan is 2.30 meters, which is considered top among inside players.

Defensive small forwards can also use their wingspan talent to make up for their lack of lateral speed.

James saw Lin Yue changing defense against him after the pick-and-roll. He took a few steps back after catching the ball and looked at Lin Yue with complicated eyes.

His eyes were full of caution and even a hint of dissatisfaction.

This is the guy who is on the verge of surpassing him on the rookie list these days.

James knows very well that in this round he must hold the ball and play alone.

Once he passes the ball, it looks like a sign of weakness to the outside world.

"Hey, come on, LeBron, let me see how good you are in isolation."

Lin Yue bent down and slapped the floor with his hands, a look of madness on his face.

LeBron James is undoubtedly one of the most powerful basketball stars in the 21st century.

Although James is just like himself now, he is just a rookie.

But Lin Yue's body has been ignited with fire, and he can't wait to defeat James and become the strongest rookie in the 2003 class.
