Chapter 382: Win-Win Deal (3/4!) )

The Cavaliers didn't hold back in the opening game of the playoffs, while the 76ers were beaten with some doubts.

The Big Three only played the first three quarters, Yao Ming had 26 points, 13 boards, 4 assists and 2 blocks, James had 20 points, 6 boards and 6 assists, and Paul had 13 points, 14 assists and 4 steals.

In addition to the Big Three, Green, Anderson, Brown, and Artest all scored in double figures.

123 to 83, a difference of 40 points.

Although some fans knew before the game that it would be a one-sided opener, the result was still shocking.

It was only at this time that someone realized how terrifying it was for the Cavaliers to really fight seriously.

This is simply the YY God and Demon Shark lineup in many people's minds!

There was a burst of media boasting.

The other teams were shivering.

Even the Hornets executives were complained about.

They couldn't stop the Cavaliers from re-signing James to Yao Ming, after all, that was a free agent thing.

But if the Hornets hadn't agreed to trade Paul to the Cavaliers, the Cavaliers might have struggled to keep James, and without James, they wouldn't have been able to attract Yao Ming.

The Hornets have become the root of all evil.

But the Hornets said I wouldn't take it.

Paul had just suffered a major injury and was not recovering well, so who knew he would suddenly get better when he arrived with the Cavaliers? And the Cavaliers are indeed rich enough to not only return to the playoffs, but also the young core lineup of Cousins, Matthews, and Aminu has a bright future.

Of course, these arguments are actually not to the point, because it is Tang Tian who created all this, without Tang Tian, Paul can't recover, Yao Ming doesn't come back, and the Cavaliers are still the 10,000-year-old James single-core team.

The Hornets are a bit wronged.

They took their anger out on the game.

The second day of the playoffs was a shock.

The Hornets beat the Lakers 109-100, Kobe Bryant scored 34 points, and Pau Gasol played erratically against Cousins, scoring only 8 points and 6 boards on 2-of-9 shooting.

On the Hornets side, Cousins' newborn calf was not afraid of tigers, and he pressed the combination of Bynum and Gasol, and slashed 32 points, 16 rebounds and 5 blocks in the whole game.

Matthews also contributed 27 points and 5 rebounds.

The faces of those who were beaten in one game crackled, but it also showed that they really didn't lose money in Paul's trade.

It was a real win-win deal.

Not just the Hornets, the Celtics in the East lost to the Hawks 93-103, and the Spurs in the West lost to the Grizzlies 98-101.

This scene of frequent upsets shows the strength of the Cavaliers more and more.

Tang Tian also took this opportunity to give the team members a preventive shot.

Although there is a gap in strength, if you fall into a fierce battle because of the light enemy, it will not do the Cavaliers much good.

The team members also listened, and kept their heartstrings in a tense state.

After a two-day break, the Cavaliers continued to sit at home for the second game against the 76ers.

The Cavaliers were very serious from the beginning, assisting in defense, packing, and cooperating, and they all played meticulously.

And it turned out.

132 to 84.

Eight members of the team scored double-doubles, with a difference of 48 points.

Higher scores, bigger point margins.

The frustrated expressions of the 76ers players after the game almost said "give me the ball, I'm going home".

With two massacres, Cleveland fans were excited, while Philadelphia fans were a little hard to accept.

They can't say things like "show mercy" or "be light", and can only vent themselves from some small details to find satisfaction.

For example, Iverson.

After wrapping up the first two games of the series, Tang Tian took the team on a plane to Philadelphia the next day, where the Cavaliers will host the next two road games of the series.

On the plane, Tang Tian and Casey were chatting about other teams' games.

"If the Hawks had taken out the Celtics, it would have been a lot easier for us in the second round." Casey opened his mouth and said that last year's game with the Celtics was a painful injury, and if it weren't for Wallace's strong comeback at the last moment, the championship really wouldn't have been the Cavaliers.

"The Eagles can't win." Tang Tian opened his mouth and said, although the actual battle had changed from his previous life, he knew that the result was still the same.

"Why are you so sure? The Hawks are maturing and the Celtics are aging. Casey didn't think so.

"You said that they are getting old, but they are still without a crown, will they easily admit defeat? The Eagles weren't that strong. Tang Tian said lightly.

After hearing this, Casey thought about it carefully, and it seemed that this was really the case.

Although the Hawks won the first game, they narrowly won, and the Celtics have an advantage in terms of pure paper strength, and the Big Three have not won a championship for 3 years, and that kind of fighting spirit is really not comparable to ordinary teams.

After Tang Tian finished speaking, he turned his head and saw that Iverson's mood was a little low, and he had been looking out the window with headphones on.

"Aaron is going back to Philadelphia, and he looks a little depressed." Tang Tian turned around and said, back to the team that cultivated himself, but laid off his own, this kind of emotion should be very complicated.

"Philadelphia fans are a little bit less authentic." Casey spoke.

"Fans?" Tang Tian looked at Casey suspiciously, cutting Iverson was not the decision of the fans, but the management.

"See for yourself, this is what I saw before I got on the plane." Casey said and took out his phone, which opened to the Philadelphia Fan Forum.

"You want us to get slaughtered while standing up and applauding the AI? I'm sorry, but we still have dignity. ”

"Look at his treatment with the Cavaliers, he can't play for a minute, he's not the AI we know anymore, the rebellious teenager who used to do everything in Philadelphia, and now he runs to Cleveland to hug his thighs and bastard rings!"

"The AI is dead, and now the AI is nothing more than a walking corpse."

……

Tang Tian's brows furrowed.

The comments of these people made him feel familiar, but he felt sick again.

The man who worked hard for Philadelphia, a former city icon who has played for more than 11 years, is seen as such.

"They have no chance of winning, they have to find some place to vent, right? It's just that poor Aaron has become a punching bag. Casey could see it.

"People are always selfish." Tang Tian said as he returned the phone to Casey.

As Tang Tian said, the Celtics will indeed not admit defeat easily, and in the second game of the series, they fought back 113-96, pressing the Hawks all over the court and not giving them a chance.

According to this momentum, the Cavaliers will most likely meet this old opponent in the second round.

That night, the Cavaliers ushered in their third game against the 76ers.

Despite the two defeats, the 76ers' home court, Vagiovia, is still packed, after all, as it is the home of the playoffs.

And just after entering the arena, Tang Tian saw something he didn't want to see.

"The AI is dead", "The Sons of Philadelphia are no more"......

These slogans are quite glaring.
