After signing Battier, the Cavaliers then contacted veteran Peja Stojakovic to sign him to a one-year, non-guaranteed contract.

When the signing of Peja is finalized, the Cavaliers' 15-man roster for the new season will also be officially released.

Because it was a shortened season, with only two pre-season games and limited inspection time, the team did not sign other non-guaranteed contracts this year.

Point guards: Paul, Jeremy Lin, Isaiah Thomas

With Beverley being traded, Jeremy Lin will be Paul's No. 1 backup in the new season.

Shooting guards: Green, Stephenson, Jimmy Butler

Green remains with the Cavaliers, where he remains the team's No. 1 starting pick, while Butler competes with Stephenson for playing time.

Small forwards: James, Sean Battier, Chandler Parsons

This position is still the Cavaliers' strongest point, with Battier allowing James to earn more rest in the regular season and Parsons working hard to compete for the few minutes he plays.

Power forwards: Artest, Vallejo, Peja Stojakovic

One big and four will be the main theme of the Cavaliers' new season, Battier will also play the fourth position for a lot of time, Vallejo is another choice, the Cavaliers' fourth position in the new season still looks average, but not as weak as it seems.

Centre-forwards: Yao Ming, Frye, Whiteside.

As Yao Ming gets older, his playing time will decrease, and Frye, Vallejo, and Whiteside will share the extra playing time.

The 15-man squad, although the personnel fluctuates a lot, the main rotation is basically still there, plus the Big Three have experienced the run-in of last season, and the strength of the Cavaliers in the new season is only stronger than last season.

With the roster confirmed, there wasn't much time to get together, and two days later, the Cavaliers had the first of their two preseason games against the Miami Heat.

The Heat renewed Wade's contract with the highest salary last season, and this season they cleared up salary space to sign Bosh, plus the original Beasley and Mike Miller, who signed last season, this is to make a big deal in the new season.

Because it was a pre-season, the main players of both teams watched from the wall.

On the Cavaliers' side, the Big Three were all sitting in suits, and Wade and Bosh on the Heat side didn't play.

Before the game, Wade came over to say hello to Paul and James, and the friendship with Banana Boat was solid.

But after chatting for a while, Bosh also came over, and James and he were in the same class, and they chatted happily.

The game started quickly, with both teams fielding young lineups.

On the Heat side, the starting five are Moneymos and Mike Miller on the outside, Beasley and Haslem on the front, and Joel Anthony on the center.

On the Cavaliers' side, Jeremy Lin and Stephenson on the outside, Parsons and Artest on the front, and Vallejo at center.

The game got off and Vallejo gave the Cavaliers a chance to attack first.

Jeremy Lin held the ball in the frontcourt, and after directing his teammates to run, he gave the ball to Parsons, who made a three-point shot.

"Bang!"

Three-pointer misses, Anthony jams Vallejo, and Haslem collects a defensive rebound.

The Heat's fast break, Beasley accelerated to shake off Artest and meet Valejo's speed-changing layup.

Vallejo was overrun by Beasley and scored for a layup.

Jeremy Lin received a pass from Stephenson and scored a layup, and Chanmos took control of the ball to the frontcourt, borrowed Anthony's block, and hit the board against Valejo's throw.

Tang Tian frowned slightly at this time.

Vallejo's body and individual defense ability are not to be said, and the defensive coverage of the switch defense is not small in theory, but maybe it was because he didn't play much in the Knicks last season, and he didn't play an official game in the shortened season, so it felt very bad in this game.

However, Tang Tian was not in a hurry to replace him.

Vallejo will be an important part of the team this season and will need games to get his feel for it.

The game went on on the court, and Beasley repeatedly broke through the inside line to score on the court.

The two sides played more than 5 minutes, and the Heat led the Cavaliers by 7 points 16-9.

Although it is basically a full bench, the Cavaliers play well offensively, but the defense of the restricted area is very problematic, and Beasley's 8 points are all in the restricted area.

Tang Tian got up and called Whiteside up and asked him to come on the field to replace Vallejo.

Jeremy Lin took advantage of Whiteside's block, a fake pass to the outside to deceive Moneymoss, and hit a pull-up jumper.

In less than half a quarter, he had scored four points.

With Paul's guidance and the baptism of his rookie season, he has improved a lot from last season in terms of experience and personal strength.

The Cavaliers closed the margin to five points.

The Heat advanced to the frontcourt, and Beasley was in the low post with his back to Parsons.

This year is his contract year, and facing rookie Parsons at this time is a good opportunity for him to show his personal ability.

Chanmos put the ball in, and the rest of the team followed suit.

Beasley turned around after holding the ball and opted for a face-frame attack.

Take the ball and shake it on the spot.

"Smack!"

Suddenly one step dribble, acceleration and direct throw off Parsons.

Parsons reacted half a beat slower, trying to catch up with him.

Beasley takes the ball and prepares for a layup.

Whiteside came from the weak side at this point.

Beasley didn't know Whiteside, the last rookie in the first round who was drafted by the Cavaliers last season and rarely played last season.

A quick layup.

"Bang!"

Let him, let everyone on the scene not expect something to happen.

White's quick shot this season directly slapped Beasley's shot to the rebound.

A pegboard hat!

There was a shout of excitement from the Cavaliers' bench, and Paul snatched the towel from Thomas Jr.'s hand and rushed to the sideline to shake it.

Whiteside took advantage of the rebound to pick up the defensive rebound.

The Cavaliers counterattacked, and Jeremy Lin's fast-break layup returned!

He was in hot form, and he had already scored 6 points in the first quarter!

The Heat attacked the frontcourt again, and Moneymos looked for Haslem's block and went straight to the basket.

Seeing Whiteside under the basket, the scene of Beasley being covered flashed in his mind, and Chanmos did not choose to kill the basket, but directly chose to throw a stop-and-go shot after entering the free throw line.

But at this moment, a black shadow rushed directly from the front.

What a fast bullet speed!

"Bang!"

It's Whiteside again, a frontal block, and directly flies out of the cover with Moneymoss's shot!

There was a stirring at the scene.

This is already the second block in a row by this unknown player!

Thomas Jr. didn't wait for Paul to get his towel this time, and he had already rushed to the sidelines for the first time and shook it excitedly.

Paul couldn't help but laugh when he saw this.

The Cavaliers' bench was also full of laughter.

These two blocks of Whiteside, brought them all to orgasm!
