The time soon came on February 28th, the Pacers after a two-day rest, in their home court to welcome one of their main opponents in the East this season Cavaliers, the Cavaliers after more than half a season of running-in, also began to have chemistry, in the most recent games, in addition to being killed by the Pacers, they have won 15 games in a row, it is the strength of the Pacers that made their original 16 consecutive wins interrupted.

In addition to the very anxious record with the Pacers, the Cavaliers can now be regarded as desireless, there is an Eagles in front of them who have a 3-win lead, and it is not easy for those teams behind to catch up, so the Cavaliers' recent games have basically played very relaxed, relaxed and relaxed, but because their strength is here, they can still easily defeat their opponents.

Now the Cavaliers are gearing up to come to the Conseco Arena, ready to challenge the Pacers again, the Pacers' two recent opponents are all very difficult opponents, and the Pacers have also won, so now the morale of the Pacers is also booming, after two days of rest, the Pacers also want to rely on this game to ensure their second position in the East, so the fighting spirit of both teams before the game is very strong.

The difference from the last meeting is that the Heat did not put George Hill in the starting position this time, but directly let Dellavedova play to play the role of defending Ye Xuan, which is just a temporary change, but the effect should be good, at least it can free up Hill and give him more time to lead the bench to play.

At the beginning of the game, Tristan Thompson used his bounce to successfully shoot the basketball to James, James dribbled two steps, and then passed the ball to Irving, Uncle Drew's first reaction after receiving the ball was still to break through, but this time he faced Ye Xuan, who has one of the best steal abilities in the league, when the two staggered, Owen only felt a cold in his hand, and the ball was directly stabbed by Ye Xuan, fortunately, the army on the Cavaliers' side has not yet pressed up, and Dellavedova, who has not yet passed half court, picked up the basketballand quickly passed the ball back to James, without giving the Pacers a chance to play a fast break or go up to the trap.

James took the ball outside the three-point line and played very patiently, first making a feint with his tentative step, and then using Thompson, who was suddenly brought up, as a cover, to directly enter the Pacers' interior line, and easily scored the first point of the game with a pick.

The Pacers' offense is still launched by Ye Xuan, Ye Xuan's offense is very simple, although it was defended by Dellavedova alone, but Ye Xuan played two consecutive acceleration and deceleration on the way to dribble over half court, which is similar to the frequency conversion overtaking technique in football, directly left Dellavedova behind, and then before James had time to come over to defend, he suddenly pulled up a three-point shot that stopped and hit the ball. Although he had seen the perversion of Ye Xuan's three-point stunt in the All-Star Game, when James really encountered it, he still felt that his head was a little big.

In the first half of the first quarter, both teams played back and forth, except for being easily passed by Ye Xuan at the beginning, Dellavedova used the rhythm to easily pass once, and then the defense became very cautious, so it also brought a lot of trouble to Ye Xuan, mainly because it was not Dellavedova's defense was in place, mainly because his small actions were indeed a little irritable, but in any case, this did not prevent Dellavedova from becoming an excellent defensive player.

However, the Pacers are not just Ye Xuan alone, after the transformation, Hibbert did not sink all the way, but began to erupt in various ways as if he had a second spring, one of the obvious changes is that he played more actively on the court, and there was no semi-walking state at the beginning of the season, so with the support of Hibbert's internal firepower, Ye Xuan was not more entrapped by the Cavaliers on the outside, so when the TV was suspended in the first quarter, Ye Xuan still has a record of 9 points and 3 assists.

And the main point of attack on the opposite side seems to have become Lefou. Except for the first goal scored by James, the Cavaliers' 5 consecutive rounds of offense were finally handed over to Love to complete, and today's Love also felt relatively good, 5 shots, hit 4 balls, and among these 4 balls, 2 were three-point shots.

After the TV timeout, the two teams made a substitution, with the Pacers bringing in Shambaugh and Smith, while the Cavaliers traded Dellavedova and Irving for Hill and Mike Miller. Miller Sr. actually joined the Cavaliers in the middle of the season, and usually only plays a game for more than ten minutes now, which is very easy, and there are many wins, which makes Miller Sr. find a trace of the feeling when he was in the Grizzlies. So he has the trust of David Blatter.

After the substitution, the Pacers sideline serve, Ye Xuan did not change any tactics, still use his personal ability to play alone or help teammates score, because the opponent replaced Irving, - Smith is still quite dominant in speed, through running, but can find opportunities to shoot from time to time, this is also one of the few players in the Pacers team who can get a chance to shoot through their own running, rather than relying on Ye Xuan to attract firepower, 's appearance did help Ye Xuan share a lot of pressure.

But the main offensive point of the Cavaliers was not placed on the outside, but still let Love carry out the main attack, and I don't know if they saw that West's state was not good, or they felt that Love's state was wonderful, so they kept playing power forward, but their strategy did work, due to Love's range, Hibbert had no chance to help West make up for the defense, which led to West being blown up when he was one-on-one with Love. Indeed, after Ye Xuan's rise, Solomon Hill began to show his talents, and Hibbert slowly regained his form, West's status in the team can only be said to be a further decline, and now he doesn't even average 10 shots per game.
