The opening game was beaten 8:2, which is not a good sign for the Cavaliers!

The Cavaliers' offense, Irving dribbles to the frontcourt.

"At the beginning, Jin Feng looked hot on the offensive end, hitting one after another, making a good start for the Spurs, let's take a look at the Cavaliers' offense." CCTV's two commentators, Yang Yi and Yu Jia (who came to the scene), stretched their necks and stared at the court, and the NBA official arranged for them to be in the back row.

"Kyrie Irving gave the basketball to LeBron James, and now it's China Jin who defends LeBron James."

Seeing Jin Feng standing in front of James, everyone turned their attention over, can Jin Feng prevent James? Or at least it can restrain James?

After James took over the ball from the Cavaliers again, the Cavaliers started to break through the ball, coupled with the tactics of rushing to grab rebounds and defending counterattacks, it can be said that the whole team is playing around James, so that James's strength is greatly exerted.

James didn't talk nonsense to Jin Feng, as soon as the first quarter came up, his offensive desire was very strong, and now after the team was beaten 8:2, James understood that he had to stand up, after getting the ball, he observed it a little, and then broke through Jin Feng's defense with the ball, and quickly relied on his physical advantages and speed to cut into the inside.

Jin Feng also followed the defense closely, but at this time, his defense was a little passive, and he couldn't hold James in physical confrontation at all, so he could only follow the defense, and James who wanted to defend couldn't even break through, which was obviously impossible.

James rushed to the inside with the ball, completed a backhand layup against Jin Feng's defense, and the basketball deftly drilled into the basket and entered!

"James' layup went in and the Cavaliers scored two points." Yang Yi broadcast the scoring situation on the field.

And Yu Jia, who was on his side, began to analyze Jin Feng's defense just now: "This is the first time Jin Feng has defended LeBron James in this game, and he failed to defend it, so it can actually be seen that the current James is still the first person in the league, and Kevin Durant, who is known as the "second person in the league", still has a certain gap with James. ”

Yang Yi next to him also nodded, expressing his approval, just this first ball, carrying Jin Feng's defense and hitting the basket, it can be seen that James's personal strength can be seen.

For James's ball, Jin Feng rubbed his shoulder, he was hit by James a little painfully, I have to say, in terms of physical fitness, let alone him, in the entire league, there are few people who can withstand James's tank.

Spurs' offense, after a few runs, Leonard held the ball with the help of Jin Feng's blocking and dismantling cover, shook off the defender and then directly stopped the jump shot, and hit the two-point shot successfully.

10:4, the Cavaliers' offense, LeBron James received the ball directly from the backcourt, Jin Feng posted a layup again, but this time the Cavaliers played a routine, Irving went down directly, and when the Spurs' defenders were not stable, he quickly rushed to the basket, and James also threw the ball directly with a straight arm, and passed the basketball firmly into Irving's hands.

Irving received the ball and went straight to the basket, but Leonard, who was chasing behind him, had no time to defend, so he could only watch Irving make a successful layup, and the Cavaliers also scored 2 points, 10:6.

The Cavaliers both scored points after the opening, and for the Spurs, it is obvious that the defense of the opening duo of James and Irving has not yet been in place.

But Popovich is not in a hurry, he knows that if he wants to completely prevent James and Irving, it is basically impossible After all, these two are superstar players, just like other teams can't do anything with Leonard, then, for the Spurs, playing their own offense is the most important thing.

"Control the tempo, Jin!" Popovich shouted on the sidelines, and Jin Feng immediately chose to bring the ball to the front court slowly.

In order to prevent the Cavaliers from playing the defensive counterattacks they wanted, the Spurs rigidly controlled the tempo, slowed down the tempo, and played the success rate in the offense.

The Spurs attacked, James followed Leonard, but when Leonard withdrew to the bottom corner, he switched defenses with Love, obviously this is to prevent the Spurs' offense and then facilitate the quick attack and counterattack, which is LeBron James's forte.

In the face of Lefou's defense, Leonard did not waste time, went directly to the penalty area from the bottom corner, and with the help of his speed and cover, he threw off Lefou, Jin Feng immediately divided the ball, but Tristan Thompson on the inside quickly made up for the defense.

Leonard didn't hesitate, and directly passed the basketball out again, this process was only a second, the basketball was only in Leonard's hands, and then Leonard was assigned to the penalty area.

Gasol received the ball, hit it big and small, and hit this layup directly over Lefou's head, 12-6.

"The assist from Kawhi Leonard, it feels like Leonard didn't deliberately choose to attack individually at the beginning, but more often for his teammates"

The Spurs' offense played sharply, scoring all three times in a row, and all kinds of passes made it impossible for the Cavaliers to defend effectively, and Cavaliers head coach Tyronn Lue anxiously walked back and forth on the sidelines.

In fact, this Finals is very important to Tyronn Lue, if the final result is to lose the championship, then Tyronn Lue will definitely lose his position as head coach in the end, Gilbert will not tolerate him, and at that time, even James may not be able to keep him, and for Tyronn Lue personally, he doesn't want to lose this position, even if everyone knows that he is just a puppet.

The Cavaliers' offense, it was James who took the ball, he held the ball in the face of Leonard's defense, rushed straight in, and made another layup.

In this regard, Jin Feng and they were not surprised, but they were helpless, they could only say, that is, LeBron James! Leonard's defensive ability is strong, however, Jin Feng and they didn't expect Leonard to limit James in the opening stage, which is unrealistic.

Next, the Spurs' steady offense also made a small mistake, Jin Feng's pass smashed on Tristan Thompson's body, and the basketball was taken by Irving, who was one step ahead, because of this mistake, the Spurs' offense was directly terminated.

And the Cavaliers finally played the defensive counterattack they had been trying to play, Irving, who got the ball, rushed straight to the frontcourt, and James, who was one step faster, was close to the basket.

Owen threw the ball high, James jumped up directly, and after getting the basketball, he made a violent dunk and scored 2 points again!

12:8, for the Spurs, James, at the beginning of the game, they really didn't have a good way, maybe as the game progressed, they could also limit LeBron James a little.

The game continued until the eighth minute of the first quarter, at 28:23, and surprisingly, with the excellent play of James and Irving, the Cavaliers not only overtook the score, but also took a small lead by 5 points.

James scored 14 points on 5-of-7 shooting, Irving scored 9 points on 3-of-4 shooting, and the two giants alone scored a total of 23 points.

The game entered the official timeout, and for the Spurs, they had to find a way to limit James and Irving as much as possible!
