'We did a good job in the first half and we had to attack more aggressively in the second half. Remember! This is our territory, and tonight let these hillbillies from Cleveland come back! In order to boost morale at halftime, Woodson did not hesitate to rely on such geographically discriminatory words to mock the Cavaliers.

Although Atlanta can't be compared with international metropolises like New York or Los Angeles in terms of prosperity, it is still much more prosperous than the industrial city of Cleveland, so for the Cavaliers from Cleveland, Atlantans look down on them, and the audience on the sidelines makes a lot of signs that mock the Cavaliers as hillbillies.

In the first half, the Cavaliers relied entirely on James's rampage, so that the Hawks did not completely open up the score gap, James scored 26 points, 4 rebounds and 2 assists in the first half, accounting for more than half of the Cavaliers' scores.

This doesn't bode well for the Cavaliers, who have always had a high probability of losing. And the Hawks are in good offensive form today, and if the Cavaliers can't limit their offense, it will be difficult to beat this opponent.

Even so, in the away team's locker room, all the players of the Cavaliers were almost tired and lay down, including the little emperor with superhuman physique, who lay motionless on the only massage table in the locker room to recover his strength.

Don't look at the halftime that gives the Cavaliers players twenty minutes of rest, but those who have played the game know that these twenty minutes are not a good medicine to restore physical strength, but will make the players' bodies more tired, at this time all the cells in your body seem to be protesting to you, the human body instinctively wants to rest after strenuous exercise, and now the Cavaliers players have no desire to continue playing, they all want to lie down in bed and sleep a lot, or go eat a chicken or something.

For the tired Cavaliers, the twenty minutes of halftime seemed to pass in the blink of an eye, and they could only drag their tired bodies onto the court again.

The referee's whistle blew. The Cavaliers took the lead in attacking, only to see the Cavaliers players quickly move the ball to find a favorable position. Brown knew his disciples' physical condition well, and he knew that instead of letting them slow down, it would be better for the players to run and play, which would allow them to temporarily forget about their fatigue under the effect of adrenaline hormones.

James didn't attack himself after receiving the ball, but looked at the position of his teammates, and he motioned for Ilgoskas to come out to block and cover, and Ilgoskas blocked Al. After Harrington, James made a quick start to shake off the defenders.

However, the Eagles' Pachulia and Josh. Smith also quickly dispatched to contain James, and they didn't want James to cut off fifty points on his head today. But at this time, James was actually ready, he threw the ball into the sky, and then a tall figure caught the basketball and dunked directly.

James and Ilgoskas's air-receiving cooperation is quite tacit, if you want to say who has the best tacit understanding with James in the Cavaliers, there is no doubt that it is Ilgoskas, their blocking, dismantling and air-cutting cooperation is quite classic, so later people said that as long as James is equipped with a center who can block and cover and grab rebounds, such a team already has enough strength.

When it was the Hawks' turn to attack, the Hawks continued to play in the second half of the second quarter, which was to have multiple people involved in the offense, passing the ball constantly until the pass was open. Sun Yue passes the ball to Al. Harrington, facing James' defense today, Al Brown. Harrington really didn't have much of a chance to make a move, which also made the Hawks play more team. Harrington passed the ball to Sun Yue on the run, and Sun Yue passed the ball to Joe from beyond the three-point line. Johnson.

Johnson, who was already in the open position, still didn't shoot, and he made a shooting feint to shake up Larry who flew over. Hughes, burst to the free-throw line and then hit a shot.

Seeing that his team couldn't compete with their opponents in terms of tactics, James didn't want to use any more tactics, and he felt that instead of using those complex tactics, it was better to rely on his own talent to solve the battle.

Then he was about to start attacking the opponent's penalty area again, and James signaled his teammates to distance him and not block his breakthrough inside, but what he didn't know was that Woodson had already arranged it at halftime, and dealing with James was a strategy.

James, who broke into the inside line, found that the Eagles players were all shrinking on the inside, and James, who was not easy to rush in, was directly pushed out by Pachuria, although James was talented, but his strength was not comparable to that of the big center Pachulia at all, so James was pushed on his back.

Pachuria's action was a bit big for the referee to give him a foul, although it was not a malicious foul, but he also got a warning, and Pachuria, who got Coach Woodson's clear instructions, didn't care about this, and said to James: "Boy, don't think about breaking through to our interior in the future, this place has been blocked by us, if you are still obsessed, then I will call an ambulance for you." ”

James had no expression on his face, but he was still a little frightened in his heart, and even the little emperor was a little scared of this Georgian boxer.

James walked to the free throw line with a blank face and prepared to make free throws, and I don't know if it was affected by Pachuria's foul just now, James's arm trembled slightly when he shot, so that he didn't grasp the two free throw opportunities and missed the free throws.

The rebound was picked up by Pachuria, and then the Hawks played a fast break, and Sun Yue controlled the ball quickly, and then he and Pachulia came to an open catch, which was also a reward for Pachuria's fierce defense just now.

James still doesn't believe in evil, he continues to use his teammates' blocking and dismantling cover, and breaks through to the Hawks' interior again, this time James was not put down, but unfortunately, James was blocked by Josh next to him due to Pachuria's block. Smith picked up a bargain, his basketball was held down by Smith before he could shoot, and finally James had no other way but to force the ball, he wanted to pass the ball to Ilgoskas on the inside, but unfortunately Sun Yue was quick to poke the ball out.

Then Sun Yue passed the ball to Joe, who was about to go down. Johnson came to deal with it, Johnson quickly dribbled across the half court, and then before the Cavaliers defenders were fully in position, he directly threw a quick three-pointer, and the basketball went into the basket with a bang, not giving the defenders any chance to react at all.
