As if to confirm what Wang Xiao said, the second game of the Eastern Conference duel between the Wizards and the Cavaliers was won by the Wizards again, and compared with the previous game, this win was more relaxed and freehand.

Thompson hit 9 shots from just 11 shots, including 4 three-pointers, and scored 26 points from free throws, and Curry, George and Leonard didn't reduce their shots at all, scoring 25 points, 18 points and 22 points respectively.

Under such circumstances, the Cavaliers collapsed, trailing by more than 20 points in just three quarters, and finally surrendered within a few minutes of the fourth quarter to replace all the main forces.

Sitting on the sidelines waiting for the game to end, James' face was full of confusion.

He didn't understand what kind of luck he had, he met the three guys of the Celtics Big Three in the early part of his career, and had to make a decision to go to Miami to find his brother, but he never thought that he would lose to the Mavericks in the first season, and in the following seasons, he met the Super Wizards team that could be ranked first even among the best teams in history.

For several years, James has lost to the Wizards every time, from the Heat to the Cavaliers, and now even if there is a luxury lineup of the Big Four, even if Wang Xiao is no longer coaching the Wizards, he still can't win!

Although the 2-0 score is far from over for a series, the gap between the Wizards and the Cavaliers in the first two games has made anyone lose the expectation and suspense of this series matchup.

The level difference between the two teams is too far, and compared to the Wizards' best use of things, the Cavaliers look like they are simply putting several stars together, without a proper set of tactics and a tacit cooperation that complements each other.

After the game, the media wind almost all went to the Wizards, and at the same time, various comments about the Cavaliers followed.

"LeBron. James should reflect on whether there is a problem with his style of play, why every star has a certain degree of decline in data and state after coming to him, and whether James's tactics as a ball carrier and offensive initiator are really scientific? ”

"Cavaliers' management should also think carefully about what exactly they need. Is it one star after another who has a high-paying contract but can't play as much as he deserves, or is it an excellent coach who can bring out the characteristics of his players? ”

"The Cavaliers are finished, and their salary space means that the team will not be able to make any reinforcements even next season, unless they choose to trade one or two of the Big Four, but based on Howard and Love's performance this season, their trade value will be greatly reduced in the summer."

……

Some people have already started to make plans for how the Cavaliers will be next season, which proves that no one is still optimistic that the Cavaliers can cross the mountain of the Wizards, and even if they return to their home court next, the Cavaliers have little hope of turning around.

And so it is.

The Wizards, who were playing away from home, were completely out of order in Cleveland, and the first half of the game was completely against the Cavaliers, and the bombardment made the Cavaliers completely unable to lift their heads.

Based on the situation on the court, the Wizards are likely to win the match point on the road and turn the series to 3-0.

However, no one could have imagined that the accident would really happen.

In the third quarter of the game, during the counterattack after another successful defense, Curry broke through with the ball, and when he rushed to the basket and was about to jump to the basket, he suddenly fell to the ground, clutching his ankle in pain.

When he saw this scene, Wang Xiao's heart jumped suddenly, and he secretly screamed badly.

Because Cleveland was too far away, Wang Xiao did not go to the scene to watch the game, but only watched the game through live TV.

But even so, through the slow-motion replay, he still saw the scene where Curry accidentally twisted his foot before the layup.

The ankle is the hardest hit area for Curry, who in another world suffered from an ankle sprain early in his career, and even at the peak of his career, there are still minor injuries every season.

In this world, due to Wang Xiao's suggestion, Curry had surgery in advance, and the ankle problem was greatly solved, and Wang Xiao has always been very cautious about Curry's use, strictly controlling the playing time, and arranging at least 10 or so rotational breaks every season.

However, injuries can only be prevented and avoided as much as possible, but it is impossible to say that they can be completely eliminated.

It's just that I didn't expect that in such a critical period as the Eastern Conference Finals in the playoffs, Curry was actually injured!

Although it is not known the extent of Curry's injury for the time being, it is clear that this game will definitely not be able to continue.

With the support of the team doctor, Curry limped to the players' tunnel, while the Cleveland fans, who were already slightly desperate on the sidelines, were a little stunned for a while.

The opponent's main player is injured and can't continue to play, isn't there a chance?

That's Stephen. Curry! Double MVP of the regular season finals, the top superstar in history!

Although the Wizards' game does not rely on Curry alone, Curry is no less important to this team than the Cavaliers' James, and more than seventy percent of the Wizards' tactics are based on Curry's three-point deterrence!

The Cavaliers, on their side, were also clearly aware of this, and immediately called a timeout and began to lay out targeted tactics.

On the other side, Wizards head coach Kerr frowned slightly.

Without Curry, the impact on the Wizards is really quite large, and when there is only one stable three-point shooter left on the court, it is difficult for the Wizards to use the outside shooter to pull enough space to organize the offense.

Although George Leonard also has a certain amount of three-point ability, it is only an ordinary level, and it is not enough to shock opponents.

Kerr's heart sank slightly, but on the surface, he still comforted the Wizards players without moving.

"Guys, Stephen will be fine, he'll be back for the next game, and I hope that when he comes on the pitch for the next game, we'll be in a 3-0 match point state!"

……

Although the words of encouragement were said several times, it was clear that Cole had little effect.

The Wizards' players returned to the court after a timeout, and their concentration was noticeably reduced.

Apparently they are still concerned about Curry's injury and are worried that Curry will miss the rest of the game due to injury.

At the same time, after Curry's absence, the problem of the decline in shock outside the three-point line was immediately apparent.

Seizing the opportunity of the Wizards' absent-minded players, the Cavaliers took the opportunity to launch a wave of onslaught and instantly turned the tide and overtook the score.

Kerr had to call a timeout to stabilize the situation, but nothing improved.

However, the blessing and misfortune did not go alone, and soon something worse happened.
