Cleveland, Quick Loan Arena.

Around the central venue, the crowd was sensational, and the atmosphere was extremely hot.

The sound of the DJ kept ringing, introducing the players from both sides.

Every time a player comes out, the fans give a little applause, which is Cleveland's hospitality.

As the visiting team, the Toronto Raptors were of course the first to play, starting with the bench players and starting the five Tigers, one by one.

It's not the first time Wu Di has come to this arena, after all, he has been working hard in the NBA for four years.

The sound sounded in his ears, and he suddenly felt that the DJs in the thirty stadiums of the league had such the same voice, and they were all so passionate.

Infectious sounds resounded in the arena......

In the midst of an introduction, a high-pitched roar erupted, which made people a little surprised.

……

Under the light of the magnesium lamp, the owner of the figure was Wu Di.

The number 14 is now the best-selling jersey in the league, and too many fans love and support him, and this situation is also true in Cleveland.

The impact of Wu Di's appearance surprised him, after all, he didn't think he had reached the point where he could enjoy such treatment away from home.

But it did, and he was greeted by the home fans at the Quickloan Arena.

"I'm a little skeptical, really, I'm really a little skeptical, is this guy here with a Toronto fan?"

Barkley exclaimed, but the smile on his face could tell that he was definitely not serious.

As a player in his fourth year in the NBA, Wu Di is definitely a superstar today. He is not weaker than any opponent. Or even say. It's a lot stronger.

Therefore, Wu Di can also be said to be the object of many players competing to surpass, including the champion show LeBron James in 03.

Although James has a very high starting point and was able to play 20+ in the first season, there is still a big gap between him and today's Wu Di.

And more importantly, the two people are about the same age, and naturally they will inevitably be compared.

James was known as the Chosen Son in high school and was seen as the next Jordan.

When there is a young man in the league who is even better than him. Naturally, James also wants to prove himself. Therefore, whenever two people meet, sparks fly.

Especially now that Wu Di has played and received cheers from the fans at the Quick Loan Arena, this is definitely a big dissatisfaction in James's heart, obviously, this is a question about his excellence.

The thoughts in a person's heart are always conveyed in a wonderful way, so although the game has not yet started, it is already a constant fighting spirit.

Players from both sides begin their final warm-up preparations. The fans at the scene slowly quieted down.

Wu Di held the ball in one hand, but did not shoot. Instead, he looked up at the big screen in surprise.

At this time, on the big screen of the Quick Loan Arena, Wu Di and James are among the most played each other this season.

Obviously, this is a star-to-star comparison deliberately carried out by the home team in order to excite the fans.

The alignment of Wu Di and James is the focus of this game, and when the season comparison between the two appears on it, it naturally attracts attention and discussion.

Wu Di averaged 28.5 points, 5.0 boards, 3.5 assists, 2.5 steals and 1.5 blocks per game, shooting 46.6% from the field, 41.8% from three-point range, 82.9% from the free throw line, and had a record of 1 win and 1 loss.

James averaged 33.5 points, 9.0 rebounds, 7.5 assists, 3.0 steals and 2.0 blocks per game, shooting 45.5% from the field, 38.6% from three-point range, and 80.5% from the free throw line, with a 1-1 record.

Judging from the number jù comparison, the two have played each other twice this season, and James has a certain advantage in the personal table.

But this does not mean that James is stronger than Wu Di, the main reason for this is because the two games that Wu Di and the Cavaliers played were before the All-Star, and at that time it was also the recovery period of Wu Di's return from injury.

It can be said that if you really want to compare two people, today's game is appropriate.

This match was the last meeting of the season between James and Wu Di, so in a certain way, each wanted to beat the other.

(In a game at the beginning of the season, Wu Di was still recovering from an injury and naturally could not play.) ）

Wu Di looked at his number and couldn't help but smile in his heart.

He really didn't notice how well James played in the first two games.

"Looks like I'm going to have to try to prove something in this fight." The psychology that belongs only to young people suddenly rises, which is a kind of fighting spirit.

After thinking about it, Wu Di no longer looked at the big screen, but began to warm up to find a feeling.

For the commentators and commentators, moments like this were the time to show their eloquence, so a group of people began to give brief introductions and season evaluations of both sides of the game.

By April, the Raptors were completely on the right track, and Wu Di was in good shape, which was the best signal for this team that aspired to rise.

Moreover, the rapid growth of the Raptors' rookie players has significantly increased the depth of the team's roster.

In the latest edition of the team's power list, the Raptors are the third-highest Cunzài. It can be said that today's Raptors are something that no team in the league dares to underestimate.

As for the Cavaliers, the Cavaliers have a record of more than 50% this season and have been floating in the fourth to sixth spots in the East.

This kind of result is not very satisfying for the Cavaliers in the third year of rebuilding, but it is quite good.

In fact, whether or not you play the playoffs is not particularly important for the time being.

For the Cavaliers, the biggest takeaway was getting a young leader who was a legendary star.

LeBron James miraculously played a 30+7+7 table in the third season of his career, which is extremely shocking. No matter how you look at it, such a James is mouth-watering.

Compared to the first two seasons, James is more mature this season. It's more aggressive.

Although the Cavaliers have no shortage of people on the front line. But head coach Mike Brown still let James keep making cameos in the No. 2 and No. 3 positions.

It's that change that has allowed James to score 30 points this season.

In fact. ESPN has spoken out more than once on this issue, and a group of experts feel that James' physical talent should be played in the No. 3 position, otherwise it will be wasted.

However, as things stand, James prefers to play in the No. 1 position, which is what he does best.

Speaking of which, in today's Union. James has an absolute advantage in the No. 1 position, just like the Magic Johnson back then, and the opponent has no threat to him at all.

Therefore, this situation is also troublesome for all teams, that is, how to limit such a big man No. 1 position.

Playing against the Cavaliers, Collins will certainly think about this, and he needs to find a player who can pose a threat to James to limit James.

And looking around, it seems that only Wu Di is the most suitable candidate.

So, when the game really started, Wu Di stood in the No. 1 position. There was also a burst of discussion at the scene.

"Wu Di can play the number one position? I'm afraid he's going to be blown up by LeBron. ”

"I don't think anyone can guess the outcome of this kind of scene. When LeBron hits the inside more of a lot. Can Wu Di stop it? ”

……

Thoughts erupted, and the game was filled with a rush.

Wu Di stood beside James, the whole person seemed quite calm, and he didn't have any special thoughts because he was against James.

James's reaction was also very indifferent, after all, it was not the first time the two had met.

Speaking of which, everyone knows the kind of cattiness between James and Wu Di. Because at this year's All-Star Game, Wu Di said that it was impossible for him to be teammates with James, which Wu Di would make the two talented young people have a slight gap in their hearts.

And now, the two of them are facing each other again, which is definitely exciting for all spectators.

"What kind of sparks do two people make?"

At the moment of jumping the ball, such a thought popped up in everyone's hearts.

Ilgoskas had a clear height advantage, but Milicic beat him on the jumper.

The basketball was picked up by Shaun Livingston and then fell into the hands of Wu Di.

At this time, the Raptors' starters are, Wu Di, Livingston, Granger, Bonner and Milicic.

As for the Cavaliers, the starters were, James, Christie, Stephen Jackson, Boozer and Ilgoskas.

The Raptors' roster is relatively young, but no one dares to take them lightly.

Wu Di dribbled forward, and after half court, he did not rush to organize the attack, but stopped and stood to observe the alignment on the court.

Granger and Livingston are both rookies with little game experience, but their positivity on the court is definitely appreciated.

The players on the field kept moving, and suddenly, Wu Di suddenly threw the ball out.

There was a loud bang, and the hoop squeaked.

"That's how you got an assist?" Barkley stared, as if surprised.

It was also not only Barkley who was surprised, but also James who was opposite Wu Di, who doubted that Wu Di had consumed energy after taking this assist.

Collins nodded appreciatively on the sidelines, and the Raptors opened the game with a very relieved shot.

Granger, a rookie in '05, seemed to be a little flattered because he got the first point of the game, and when he turned back to defend, he couldn't stop waving at Wu Di.

"It's nothing? Guys, let's tear them apart this turn. ”

James received the baseline serve, waved his big hand, and greeted his teammates.

However, for James, it didn't seem like a good start.

Ilgoskas mentioned blocking for James in the high post, which made James instantly have space.

However, James did not shoot directly, but chose to pass, and in his opinion, Stephen Jackson appeared empty.

However, when he came out with a basketball pass, a large hand blocked his view.

……

Wu Di's arm was fished, the basketball was in hand, and the whole person was like a bolt of lightning, going straight to the backcourt.

"He was premeditated, and Big Z's blocking and dismantling didn't play a role at all!"

Exclamations came from the sidelines, but it was difficult to stop Wu Di, who was flying fast.

James' cross-pass is broken, and he will naturally chase after the defense in a vain attempt to make up for it.

However, Wu Di's body was not weaker than him, and the two of them competed and ran, and finally Wu Di smashed the ball into the basket.

4:0。

A pass, a successful defense, and a counterattack, Wu Di's strong opening made everyone feel a little surprised.

"This guy's desire for today's table is surprisingly strong, and the Cavaliers are going to be in trouble today." Barkley laughed.

In fact, judging from this round, no one thinks that Wu Di will be blown up by James when he plays the No. 1 position today, because he is obviously in good shape and has a lot of desire.

When the match was in full swing on the field, Barkley also began to talk about Wu Di at this time:

"Wu Di plays the No. 1 position, and he also has advantages.

You can't imagine his dribbling with the initial perception.

If he wants to, he's good enough to be one of the league's best two-way guards.

As long as he's willing to pass the ball, he'll be able to do well.

Oh, yes, and more importantly, his defense is really good. ”

In fact, Wu Di now makes his opponents most jealous of his defense, and his progress in this area is so fast that it is difficult to make a good appearance in front of him.

This feeling also existed in James's mind, who was only 2-of-9 in the first half, contributing six points and six assists, but had five turnovers.

Wu Dike, on the other hand, was not so reserved, and his watch made the witnesses feel shocked again, playing 17 minutes in the half, taking 7 shots, contributing 12 points, 10 assists and 3 steals.

This kind of appearance made him completely suppress James, you know, James is the real point guard, and Wu Di is only halfway in front of him.

However, when the two were opposed, Wu Di showed an overwhelming advantage.

Wu's 10 assists in the half set a career record for Wu Di, and it was also the first time he was able to score a double-double in the half.

And with his powerful performance, the Raptors were able to lead the Cavaliers by 12 points at halftime with 59:47.

In fact, if it weren't for Milicic's poor play on the inside today, the Raptors would have been more than just 12 points ahead.

"Wu, you're really surprised, do you want to get 20 assists today?"

Barkley's face was incredulous, if he had the opportunity now, he really wanted to say such a sentence to Wu Di's face.

Indeed, Wu Di's 10 assists in the half were really surprising.

You must know that in Wu Di's 4 seasons, he has only double-doubled assists in a single game.

For James, he felt that he had miscalculated today, and obviously, he felt less and less good, and it was difficult for him to take advantage of the confrontation with Wu Di.

So, when the Raptors extended their lead to more than 20 points at the end of the third quarter, the Cavaliers gave up.

James was out of the game with eight minutes left.

For this reason, Wu Di also felt a little regretful in his heart, he felt that he missed the best opportunity to set the best assist record.

However, even so, Wu Di played an amazing performance in his limited playing time.

On the list of numbers jù after the game, the column that belongs to Wu Di is written with such a set of numbers jù.

Played 30 minutes, 8-of-13, 3-of-6 three-pointers, 5-of-5 free throws, contributed 24 points, 6 rebounds, 16 assists and 6 steals.

James, who was opposite him, contributed 19 points and 9 assists in this game, but had 9 turnovers and shot a pitiful 38.9% from the field. (To be continued......)
