Owen limped through the players' tunnel, and through the big screen on the scene, An Jie could see that the expression on the young defender's face was so unwilling and painful.

The pained look on Owen's face wasn't from the pain in his knee. Instead, he knows that his journey to the finals this year may have come to an end......

"Damn!" Owen took off his jersey and slammed it to the ground. He refused all those who came up to help him, and limped towards the locker room.

The big screen at the scene suddenly went black and lit up again. But the picture has returned to the court.

James and Anjie withdrew their gazes at the same time, and they happened to look at each other. and James met on the stage of the finals for three consecutive years, and An Jie can be said to know James very well.

Therefore, James's expression of sighing softly was captured only by An Jie. This time, even the "little emperor" felt that the knights were already difficult to return.

"It's not over yet! It's not over yet! Stand up, keep defending!" James began to shout on the court, this is what a team leader should do, even if the team has been pushed to the edge of the cliff, the leader must not fall!

Australian guard Matthew Dlavedova was called upon to become the only choice for the Cavaliers' No. 1 spot at this critical moment.

In last summer's World Cup, Anjie was very impressed by Dellavedova. To describe this guy in one word, it's "crazy".

He's one of those very motivated players who will give his best as long as he is on the pitch for a second.

But unfortunately, this is not the FIBA Basketball World Cup, this is the NBA Finals, the highest level court on the planet. Dellavedova's positivity may not be able to compensate for the impact of Irving's absence on the Cavaliers.

Since it was Irving who just covered the ball out of bounds, it was now the Trail Blazers to re-serve.

Dellavedova's aggressive entanglement did cause Lillard a lot of problems, but his tight defense allowed Lillard to have a lot of passing opportunities.

Just as Dellavedova and Lillard were entangled, the orange basketball suddenly flew into the hands of Aldridge, who was in position at mid-range.

The young Tristan Thompson immediately posted on the situation, but Aldridge just threw the ball into the air and let it go.

Thompson turned his head to see that An Jie, who was in ambush outside the three-second zone, had already cut in at this time, and Mozgov was thrown out of half of his body by An Jie.

An Jie, who was open in front of him, jumped lightly and received the basketball that was thrown by Aldridge.

Before Mozgov could react, Anjie smashed the basketball into the basket with one hand to give his team the lead.

Cavaliers fans hugged their heads and sighed, and Irving's injury cast a shadow over everyone on the court.

The masked Angel is the Dark Knight in Portland and the Hellbringer in Cleveland. His dunk almost shattered the Cavaliers' hopes of winning.

With 40 seconds left in the game, the Cavaliers were still two points behind. There was no time to waste, and they immediately organized a counterattack.

When Irving was not on the court, James stood directly on the baseline and waited, intending to control the ball himself for half the court.

However, what James didn't expect was that Iguodala, the guy, actually followed suit. In response to James' full-court pressing, from the first second he received the ball, Iguodala did not intend to let the No. 23 be comfortable with the ball.

I have to admit that Iguodala's defense did cause James a lot of problems. You know, Iguodala's body is also very strong.

James bumped and bumped all the way before finally getting the ball across the halfway line eight seconds ago. However, when James dribbled the ball past half court, he realized that he had no passing options.

Thompson and Mozgov are basically zero on the offensive end, and Dellavedova doesn't have accurate shooting. As for Cavaliers shooting guard Iman Shampot, this guy was also freezing cold today. And the key ball is by no means Shambaugh's strong point.

James adjusted his breathing, and at this moment, going it alone seemed to be his only option!

As a result, James began to distance himself from Iguodala. Iguodala didn't force it up, and deliberately put a little space, just to prevent James from breaking through.

Seeing that Iguodala was not fooled and the game time was getting less and less, James did not hesitate and started directly!

The bodies of the two strong forwards slammed into each other, and the end result was that James was knocked back a few steps and Iguodala was knocked back by James.

"Damn!" Seeing that the 24-second offensive time was about to run out, James didn't wait any longer, but jumped high directly outside the three-point line and shot!

"Oops!" Iguodala had already put a lot of space for James, and if he was knocked out of the way, he could hardly block this three-pointer.

And just like that, James got a near-open shot. Under the basket, Anjie immediately turned sideways, and Mozgov and Thompson couldn't even get a little position.

The orange basketball was spinning in the air, James's eyes were fixed on it, this ball, carrying all hope.

"Bang!" There was a crisp sound, the basketball hit the neck of the basket and bounced out, and James' three-point shot missed!

Seeing this, An Jie's legs were like clockwork. He immediately jumped with precision, opened his big hand, and picked the rebound safely.

Without hesitation, Mozgov immediately rushed to Anjie for a deliberate foul and sent him to the free throw line. With six seconds left in the game, the Cavaliers trailed by just two points. But now, everyone knows that James is gone!

Anjie walked to the free-throw line amid boos from the entire Quickloan Center arena, and an avid Cavaliers fan even took off his shirt to reveal his fat and did a comical dance in the stands behind the rebounds to distract Anjie.

An Jie naturally saw this funny scene, but his attention was all on the referee's basketball.

An Jie made two free throws and two free throws steadily, stretching the difference to four points. The Cavaliers have no timeout, which means that this game has ended early.

When Dharavidove controlled the ball and walked forward, James didn't follow up and walked straight to the bench.

Owen, who was being examined by the team doctor in the locker room, saw this scene and couldn't help but burst into tears. Obviously, his performance today is so good, and it is clear that the Cavaliers are about to turn the situation around, and Mingming ...... Obviously, the victory in this game should belong to Cleveland.

But now, with his own injury, everything has gone up in smoke.

Irving's knee is already unhealthy, and he played with an injury. But the intensity of the finals was still much beyond Irving's imagination. Maybe his broken knees can't support such a game at all. It's just that this young and enthusiastic No. 2 defender doesn't know it.

At the end of the game, Anjie's key rebounds and key free throws ensured that the Trail Blazers could get off to a good start.

With 26 points and 15 rebounds, Anjie's statistics are still exaggerated, and the Trail Blazers' victory is still beautiful. It's just that behind this glamorous arena, no one notices that LeBron James has quietly left the court.

This arrogant "little emperor", the "little emperor" who tried to snatch the O'Brien Cup from An Jie, walked out of the stadium with his head down.

After the game, An Jie, who was named the best in the game by ESPN, was naturally "hunted down" by the media as always.

Many of the questions from the reporters were not painful, what they thought about winning the game, and what they had the confidence to win the series. However, Wu Hua's question made An Jie fall into thinking.

"Ann, what do you think of Kyrie Irving's injury!?" Wu Hua's unique question made him attract everyone's attention.

"It's a pity, really. Kyrie is a very good young defender who can make the game even more thrilling. It's just a pity that God didn't favor him tonight. I just hope that Carey will get better soon. "An Jie's words are true, and there is absolutely no falsehood.

It seems that this year, LeBron James has only single-handedly fought with Anjie naked.

No one would have imagined that the first game of the NBA Finals would end in such dramatic circumstances.

The Trail Blazers got off to a 1-0 start, and if the Cavaliers lose the next home game, then when the game returns to Tear City, James can't do anything!

So the second game of the finals, it was a fateful game for James. When the time comes, he will let the whole world know. Even without Irving and Love, he LeBron James will definitely do his best!

After a victory, what awaits Anjie is only another more intense battle......
