Putting aside the comparison and analysis of the combat effectiveness between the two teams by various experts from the outside world, these two teams are also actively preparing for the upcoming finals.

The time soon came to the first game of the Finals, and the Lakers players were very active in the locker room at home, although Clarkson and other young people who had never played in the Finals seemed a little nervous, but they were more excited in the tension, and they felt a little gearing up. This is undoubtedly good news for the Lakers, and if their group of rookies who have not played in the Finals can play their due strength, then it should not be difficult for the Lakers to win the game.

On the other side of the Cavaliers' locker room, they are all around Lao Zhan, listening to Lao Zhan make the final mobilization, all their players seem calmer, after all, this is not the first Finals for most of them, and they have almost retained the lineup that won the championship last year, if they can catch the impatience and inexperience of the Lakers' young people in the game, then the Cavaliers have a chance to win.

At the beginning of the game, the Lakers seemed to have given up the idea of letting Randle be the starter, after all, his performance in the playoffs was much worse than Clarkson, who was also a rookie, so in Walton Jr.'s plan, his team status also declined, but this does not mean that Wharton Jr. should abandon him, although his playing time in the playoffs has decreased, but he still has more than 20 minutes of playing time per game, It's just that in the starting lineup, Wharton Jr. prefers to use Hibbert to cooperate with Ye Xuan and Solomon Hill to play an advantage in the opening game.

The referee tossed the ball high, although Hibbert won almost all the scrums in the game with the Warriors, but that was because the opponent's interior line was also a tonnage type and the inside, and the bounce of the inside line was still very poor, so he was able to win the jump ball many times, and when facing Tristan Thompson, his bounce power was a little insufficient, Thompson easily gave the ball to James, and then ran towards the front court.

After Lao Zhan received the basketball, he dribbled a few steps forward, and then passed the ball to Irving, generally speaking, the first ball in the opening game is played by the star of the house, but Lao Zhan is obviously ready to let Irving find a feeling at the beginning, he feels that as long as Irving is in good shape today, then there will be no problem in winning this game.

Irving received the ball, he was actually quite embarrassed in the face of Ye Xuan's defense, but he couldn't be timid before he had a fight, so even if he felt that Ye Xuan's defensive intensity made him a little uncomfortable, he still didn't pass the ball back to James, but chose to call for blocking, and after blocking and dismantling with Tristan Thompson, Irving quickly broke through to the Lakers' inside, Ye Xuan naturally immediately followed, although he was blocked by Tristan Thompson, but Ye Xuan still kept up with Irving smoothly, But just when Ye Xuan was about to put further pressure on Owen, he suddenly hit the second wall directly, and when he looked up, he saw that it was Lefou, and the Cavaliers directly asked the two players on the inside to help him do a block and dismantle in order to give Owen a chance to shoot, and finally succeeded in getting him rid of Ye Xuan's defense.

After hitting this ball, Owen and Lao Zhan both breathed a sigh of relief, after all, hitting this ball shows that their tactics are no problem, and now they just need to play well on the court. The Lakers served in the backcourt, and after being beaten by the opponent just now, Ye Xuan naturally wanted to return the opponent immediately, so after he controlled the ball and came to the front court, he immediately commanded his teammates to pull away and wanted to play alone.

Facing the defense of his old teammate George Hill, Ye Xuan was unceremonious, directly changed direction two times in a row, and then suddenly accelerated and forcibly broke through to the opponent's inner line, George Hill barely followed, but Ye Xuan was not affected by his defense at all, leaning on George Hill and breaking through two steps inward, Ye Xuan suddenly made a sharp stop, and then easily threw the ball into it, George Hill didn't have time to brake when he chased back, and could only watch Ye Xuan hit the ball.

At this time, the home advantage was revealed, when Irving hit the ball just now, the scene was quiet, and after Ye Xuan hit the ball, the scene instantly erupted into a burst of cheers, the fans of the Lakers home court are also very experienced, after all, they are the team that has entered the finals the second most, and they are also the team that has won the second most championships.

The Cavaliers were not disturbed by the atmosphere of the scene, after serving in the backcourt, they still chose to play steadily, Hill controlled the basketball and came to the front court, and immediately passed the ball to Irving, Irving called for blocking again, but this time Irving was not able to find a chance to break through, after trying, he immediately passed the ball back to James, and Lao Zhan received the ball in the face of Solomon-Hill's defense and also chose to let his teammates pull away and play alone. And Lao Zhan's singles seemed more unreasonable, there was no change of direction, no emergency stop, just a simple body crushing, after a few steps inward, Lao Zhan threw the ball out with a horseback archery-style running shot, but unfortunately this shot was not able to hit, and the rebound was accepted by Hibbert.

Ye Xuan seized the opportunity and immediately wanted to start a fast attack, but unfortunately the Cavaliers' retreat was very fast, Ye Xuan did not find the opportunity to attack quickly, so he could only slow down the rhythm and reorganize the attack. After all his teammates were in place, Ye Xuan called Hibbert to help block and dismantle, and after the dismantling, the two immediately pulled apart, and the Cavaliers were forced to change defenses, and now it became Ye Xuan's single Tristan Thompson, not to mention that Tristan Thompson's footsteps could not keep up with Ye Xuan, just that his current state is very weak, this season TT played the worst season of his career, after all, he is a man who has been defended by the best defensive player Kardashian, and the state on the court can only be described as sleepwalking, And his state also made Lao Zhan, who helped him get a big contract, very angry, but unfortunately things are already like this, and there is nothing he can do.

Ye Xuan's single TT is naturally very easy, the acceleration after a change of direction directly passes the opponent, and the Cavaliers have some loopholes in their defense, so no one comes to cover or make up for the defense, and the result directly makes Ye Xuan easily break through to the inside layup.

Lao Zhan on the side was also a little irritated when he saw this, although the game had just started and the team was not too far behind, but Tristan Thompson's defensive attitude really annoyed him, so while waiting for TT to serve on the baseline, he opened his mouth to reprimand him.

After receiving the backcourt serve, Lao Zhan controlled the ball and came to the front court, still letting his teammates pull away, Lao Zhan did not miss again in this round, and continued to impact the inside, this time he was more fierce than the previous round, Solomon Hill was not able to keep up with Lao Zhan's impact, and was thrown away directly, and Hibbert, who guarded the inside line in the past, was still unable to protect the Lakers' inside, and could only watch Lao Zhan change hands in the air and hit the ball to the basket.

The game continued, and the Lakers still let Ye Xuan hold the ball, but this time Ye Xuan was not ready to play alone, but chose to pass the ball to Wade, and let Wade play Irving's point, although Irving's offensive ability is very good, but his defense is relatively average, so if Wade can find an offensive opportunity in Irving, then this game will be much easier for the Lakers.

Facing the team led by his old friend again, Wade also has mixed feelings, this is not the ordinary kind of meeting in the regular season, this time they are in the finals, although this means that at least one of the two can add another championship, but it also means that there is a person who can only end up in failure this year, but although he feels a lot in his heart, but the kung fu Wade in his hand has not relaxed at all, after continuous crotch dribbling, Wade suddenly pulled to the side, Then with the help of Gasol's blocking and dismantling that was brought up to cover and broke directly to the inside, the Cavaliers' substitution made a mistake again, although Lefu changed the defense, but he was not able to keep up with Wade, Wade entered the restricted area to face Tristan Thompson's defense, and sent the ball into the basket with a European step, if it weren't for TT's brain, so there was no additional action in his hand, otherwise Wade might be able to deceive a 2+1.

This is the third time in a row that the Lakers have scored in the vital part of the Cavaliers, which shows that the Cavaliers' interior defense is very bad, which is not good news for the Cavaliers, but in retrospect, the same way, the Cavaliers also immediately scored two more points near the Lakers' restricted area, this time it was George Hill's off-ball run, after successfully getting rid of Wade's marking, he received a wonderful pass from James and scored a layup.

Neither team was particularly satisfied with their interior defense, but neither team's coach called a timeout to rearrange their defensive tactics or make personnel adjustments, and the main reason for this was that their offense did not have problems.

Although the Cavaliers did not call a timeout, they also began to shrink to the interior intentionally or unintentionally after being hit three times by the Lakers in a row, which made it more difficult for the Lakers to break through. But this just gave Ye Xuan the opportunity to get shooting space on the outside, after the ball came to the front court, Ye Xuan directly chose to break through, after attracting the bag, Ye Xuan distributed the ball to Gasol, who had already obtained a vacant position, Gasol directly made a three-point shot, but unfortunately Gasol, as a big forward, was not so stable outside the three-point line, and the shot ended in iron.

Lao Zhan received the backcourt rebound, the Cavaliers can be regarded as relieved, if the opponent has been able to achieve results on the offensive end, then this game will be very difficult, now Gasol's three-point iron gives them a chance to breathe, this is also their chance to counterattack, Lao Zhan grabbed the backcourt rebound and immediately began to kill the Lakers' halfcourt, at this time Ye Xuan because he just broke through the ball, so the position is relatively backward, and Gasol is near the bottom corner to catch the ball and shoot three points, So the retreat must be very slow, but this time directly gave the Cavaliers a chance to play more and less in the frontcourt, Lao Zhan controlled the ball and came to the front court and directly broke through two steps to the inside, and then after attracting Hibbert's defense, a low hand sent the ball from Hibbert's waist to the hands of Tristan Thompson behind him, although TT was not in good shape, but there was no problem with dunking an empty basket.

TT dunked successfully, and at this time the elder Gasol ran back, and he could only come back to serve the baseline serve. At this time, the Cavaliers tasted the sweetness, and they decisively continued to choose to shrink the defense line when the Lakers' outside line had not yet opened, and the Lakers were a little less competitive today, Ye Xuan's breakthrough ball found Solomon Hill, Solomon Hill immediately pulled up a three-point shot after adjusting it, but under the interference of James who pounced on the defense, Solomon Hill's shot also ended in iron.

In turn, the Cavaliers were a quick counterattack, but fortunately, this time Irving was not able to seize the opportunity of this counterattack, and finally the layup was deflected out of the basket under Wade's interference, and Gasol also protected the rebound steadily.

Teammates wasted Ye Xuan's pass twice in a row, so this round Ye Xuan was not ready to continue passing, but chose to force himself to play again, after the ball came to the front court, Ye Xuan immediately called Hibbert to help block and dismantle, after this block, Ye Xuan did not break through to the inside line, but directly retreated on the spot and pulled it up to make a three-point shot, this time the shot had some gambling flavor in it, but fortunately, Ye Xuan's luck has always been good, and his self-confidence has also improved his shooting rate a little, So this shot was also a successful hit.

After being hit by Ye Xuan for a three-pointer, the Cavaliers' wishful thinking could not be played, they could only honestly expand out the defense, although it was still not completely expanded, but at least these two points close to Ye Xuan needed to be more careful.

At this time, the Cavaliers suddenly called a timeout, and the coach directly chose to call a timeout at this time, which made many people not react, but I thought that he might have called a timeout to adjust the lineup, so everyone didn't think much about it, but after the timeout, the Cavaliers' lineup did not change, but the Lakers replaced Hibbert and replaced Randle, and the timeout of the coach who was too good also changed direction to help the Lakers.
