[Guide] on April 30th news LeBron James said that he can’t wait to play the game because waiting makes him feel more and more boring.
However, while waiting for the opponent in the second round, James was not idle. He revealed that he had transformed into a scout and a fan, and had been watching the series between the Bulls and the Bucks.
James can’t wait to play
The Cavaliers’ first round of the series ended on April 27th, and their opponents for the second round would not be until tomorrow at the earliest, and their second round of the series would even begin on May 5th.
It can be said that these rest periods have given the Cavaliers a chance to solve their starting lineup problems, but James really doesn’t want to wait any longer.
“It’s a challenge for me,” James said. “I have a lot of energy, and the more I wait, the more boring I get. I’m ready to play, and I’m testing my patience.”
James said that he has been watching the series between the Bulls and the Bucks. He teased himself half as a scout and half as a fan. In other series, he will also pay close attention to the opponent’s game.
The Cavaliers will practice again tomorrow, which will be their third practice after the first round.
Regardless of whether the Bucks and Bulls will play the tiebreaker or not, the Cavaliers will return to work this Sunday to prepare for the second round of the series.
Now there is a very serious problem that needs to be solved by the Cavaliers-two starters will be absent, Love will definitely miss the second round series (maybe even be reimbursed for the playoffs) due to a left shoulder injury, and Smith will be suspended for two games for elbowing Crowder.
field.
“We know what we have, we know how to play a good game.” Cavaliers coach David Blatt said, “Also, whether it’s the Bucks or the Bulls, we’ve played them a lot this season, so
We can prepare in the normal way.”
In discussing how to fill in for Smith and Love, Blatt mentioned players by name for the first time, citing Marion, Mike Miller and Perkins, all three of whom have won championships.
All three have seen very little playing time in the playoffs.
Of course, James Jones is also a candidate to replace Love. Whether it is Jones or Miller, their three-point shooting ability can open up the offensive space, but this requires James to switch to the power forward position.
As for Smith’s replacement, it’s likely to be Shumpert.
In short, to solve the problems of rebound protection and outside three-pointers, this is what Blatter needs to do.
But James said they are not afraid of any challenge.
“We have encountered all the challenges.” James said, “We have overcome all the challenges and adversities that have occurred. We have dealt with various things very well in the first round. For a young team that can sweep the opponent
We should be happy, not take it for granted.
