Chapter 163: Little Blacks Wait
After the timeout, the Cavaliers didn't get off the ground at all.
The score was 118-96.
The Magic won by 22 points.
Li Wan, who had been sitting on the bench drinking Gatorade, stood up and applauded, and at the same time threw the towel on his shoulder to the fans on the sidelines behind him.
This is actually a need to sell by yourself, but ......
It doesn't matter anymore.
With a big win tonight, it is also appropriate to throw some "money".
Although the original Magic eliminated the Cavaliers 4-2 in the Eastern Conference Finals, in fact, except for the last two games, the other four games were not much different.
The scores in the six matchups were 107-106, 95-96, 99-89, 116-114, 102-112, 103-90......
Three of those games were all within 1 goal.
The current Magic team has more Crawford on the bench because of the addition of Li Wan, and the overall strength should be much stronger than the original.
But how strong it is, Li Wan himself doesn't have a very clear concept.
So, before the series began, he wasn't sure what the series would be, how it would be, what it would be.
But now, he must have known......
Say the number......
Definitely no more than 5 games!
Lewis excitedly ran over to give him a high-five.
By the end of the game, his three-point shooting had stopped at 12.
But it's enough.
He jumped and ran, and a group of reporters chased after him.
Tonight he is the absolute protagonist.
It wasn't until he hugged Li Wan that he stopped dodging.
When Li Wan reacted, he was already surrounded by reporters.
In this way, he was "forced" to join Lewis and let the reporters on the scene surround three layers inside and three layers outside.
The other protagonist is Dwight Howard.
Having won the Defensive Player of the Year award tonight, he seemed to want to prove his dominance on the defensive end, which was not much involved in the game.
Only 14 points were scored.
But he got 20 rebounds and five blocks!
The target he received tonight was similar to that of LeBron.
LeBron is alternately marked by Michael Petrus, Turkoglou and Raga Bale, and Lewis will be misplaced in front of him from time to time.
Howard is also facing a "left and right for men" situation, with Big Z, Varachio and Big Ben and J.J. Hickson taking turns to wrestle with him.
But the same scene, probably because of the experience of a hundred battles and more in-depth exchanges, Howard is much more relaxed than LeBron.
pressed all the "four men" of the knights under him.
Proving the title of "Best Defensive Player Award", he deserves it.
Li Wan's statistics tonight were also outstanding, with 20 points, 7 rebounds, 10 assists, 2 steals and 1 block.
Seven of the 10 assists were given to Lewis!
And it's all three-point shooting that assists him!
Otherwise, why did Su Qun say that after this game, Lewis would have to invite Li Wan to dinner.
This accounts for most of the assists, can you not have a meal?
LeBron James went to the locker room as soon as the game ended, hanging a towel over his head along the way to hide his expression.
No one knows what he's thinking at the moment.
But one thing is certain......
He must have been depressed!
Also, at the end of the game, LeBron James's data is a big triple-double of 36 points, 10 rebounds and 10 assists!
With such data, the team lost by 22 points......
How is it possible not to be depressed?
This mood did not change until he came out of the locker room and was interviewed.
A reporter suddenly asked a question: "LeBron, do you think you can win this year's regular season MVP award?" With the announcement of the Best Defensive Player award, the only remaining and most heavyweight award of the season, the regular season MVP, is also in sight.
Now there is a lot of heated discussion in the outside world.
It is not surprising that a reporter would have asked such a question.
It's just that......
LeBron stared at the reporter for a long time.
He always felt that this killer was hinting at something.
Want to say that the Cavaliers lost by 22 points tonight, and I don't deserve this award?
Scold!
Is this a game that negates my performance all season?
Not to mention......
I shouldn't be bad tonight, right?
A little dissatisfaction flashed in his eyes, but LeBron, who had a perfect score in management with a perfect expression on his face, covered his nose with his hand, and quickly adjusted, he said: "I don't care about this award, what I'm thinking about now is how to win this series......
He avoided answering, and on the other side, Li Wan was also asked this question.
"Who do you think this year's regular season MVP will be?"
Li Wan barely hesitated: "Me! β
Short and powerful, but confident, the reporter who listened to the question was stunned: "Huh? β
Li Wan was amused by his appearance: "You heard me right, man, I said it should be mine!" If this award is given out after the Grand Final, you'll understand what I'm talking about! β
After the interview was over, he returned to the locker room, and as soon as he opened the door, he was startled by what he saw:
Tecoglou, Howard, Raja Bell, Kwame Brown, Crawford, and Michael Petrus......
One by one, they stared at him, each with an open bottle of champagne in their hands, and their fingers were plugged in the mouth of the bottle, ready to shake and shoot.
Crawford's face was a little helpless, he should have been pulled to make up his head!
Li Wan immediately understood, and McDice handed him a bottle of champagne, which had also been opened.
As soon as he held it firm, the door was pushed open again, and it was none other than Lewis, the "hero" of the night.
"Dude, Gratulations!"
βwu~β
"Oh ha~"
Amidst various strange screams, six pillars of translucent liquid erupted towards Lewis.
"Mr. 100 million yuan" first subconsciously reached out to resist to prevent the lake from being faced. After tasting the champagne, he no longer avoided it and enjoyed a "champagne shower"!
The white and bright teeth were particularly dazzling, and Li Wan almost asked, what brand of toothpaste do you use......
In tonight's battle, Lewis can be regarded as planting his flag on the presidential hill in the three-point field!
The game then detonated the entire social media network.
It's not uncommon for the Magic to win by 22 points......
You know, Chris Paul was directly developed by Li Wan "69" style!
Only 22 points to win, can it be more exciting than this?
After entering the playoffs.
In the series against Philadelphia, they basically won by more than 20 points in every game.
Can ...... now
Their opponent is no longer the Philadelphia 76ers!
It's the Cavaliers, who also won 60 games this year!
This is the favorite with LeBron James!
Hot to ......
Before the season even started, the major media had already written the prediction script for the finals "23vs24".
As a result, now, in the first game of the series with the Magic, people have a 22-point difference!
This......
It's jaw-dropping.
West Coast.
The Trail Blazers' game against the Nuggets has just ended.
The Nuggets relied on Billups' quasi-stunter to hold the first game of the series 106-105 with difficulty.
With some chagrin on his face, Greg Oden had 20 points and 11 rebounds tonight and arguably played at the top five.
It was only in the final moments of the game that he failed to hold the key rebound, and Kenyon Martin completed the board on his head, which led to Billups' crucial shot.
He felt that he was fully responsible for the Trail Blazers' loss tonight.
Luo Yin passed by him and reached out and patted him on the shoulder as a sign of comfort.
This is Oden's first playoff journey, and he will have to pay some tuition.
Auden wiped his sweat with a towel and buried his head for a while before he looked up again and prepared for the interview.
He expressed his apologies to his teammates: "If I could have protected this rebound, it would have been different. I have to make things like this never happen again! β
A big-wavy blonde female reporter said at the end of the interview: "Greg, you should know that Li Wan also has a game tonight, right?" β
Auden nodded: "He should have won, right?" β
There was affirmation in the tone.
Before the start of the series between the Cavaliers and the Magic, he had read almost all the reports from the outside world, and there were more optimistic about the Cavaliers, about 6 percent.
The reason is none other than that LeBron James's "championship heart" has reached the point of extreme urgency. If he wants to overtake Michael Jordan, then ......
Winning the championship really can't be delayed any longer!
Plus this team already has Finals experience, and ......
The strength has increased greatly since last summer!
No matter how you look at it, they and Magic should be a little more advantageous to them.
Li Wan and Howard are not at the level of LeBron......
In the playoffs, isn't it just about whose core players are tougher?
But Oden believes that in this round of the series, the person who has the last laugh must be Li Wan!
The Cavaliers can't beat the Magic!
There was some surprise in the eyes of the female reporter, and this reaction fell in Auden's eyes, and her expression couldn't help but be a little more joyful. - He knew, he guessed correctly, Li Wan must have won!
Otherwise, the female reporter would not have been so surprised.
"Yes, Greg, you're not wrong, Li Wan did win!" The female reporter confirmed his conjecture and spoke again, "But do you know how many points the Magic won?" β
Ha?
This question made Auden stunned,
How many points were won?
This......
He hadn't really thought about it.
5 points?
10 points?
15 points?
He replied three times in a row, but the female reporter told him to be bolder.
"Huh?"
How bold is this?
Is it higher than 15 points?
Auden was a little nervous.
"22 points, the Magic beat the Cavaliers by 22 points!"
When this reporter told Oden about the final score won by the Magic. This guy instantly "aged" ten years again. - His eyes widened, causing his forehead to look like a ravine.
2,22 points?
Won the Cavaliers by 22 points?
Are you serious?
Auden suspected that he had misheard, or that the female reporter had said something wrong.
The videographer next to him was pleased to take this surprised photograph of Oden.
βwhatοΌβ
On the other side, Carmelo Anthony was equally intimidated.
Perhaps he was a little more surprised than Oden.
Because he guessed that LeBron won......
As a result, LeBron won, let alone win, as described by this reporter, it seems that he can't even resist a little.
22 min......
How did you lose?
Anthony has always had a high opinion of LeBron and his Cavaliers!
He was a little unconvinced, and it wasn't until the reporter next to him showed him the statistical record of another game that he finally believed that the Cavaliers had indeed lost by 22 points.
However, after he read the entire data report, he exhaled lightly: "It was the Cavaliers who lost, but my brother didn't lose!" β
Cavaliers vs. LeBron fans......
That's what I thought too!
Cavaliers' post-game stats: Big Z 12 points and 6 rebounds; Valuccio 7 points and 8 rebounds; Delonti West 9 points, 3 rebounds and 3 assists; Mo Williams 12 points and 3 assists......
The four starters combined, a total of only 40 points, barely surpassing LeBron James......
"No one scored more than 15 points, and if I were LeBron, I would cry!"
"Is it hard to score with the Cavaliers? Take the ball in the open spot, then aim for the basket and throw the damn ball in! Is it hard? β
"LeBron really tried his best, and when he fell, my heart really trembled!"
"It's time to change these stupid forks! LeBron 30 plus triple-double, which is going to be on other teams, can you lose? What a bunch of rubbish! β
β¦β¦
They are angry!
Just wait for them to see some comments on the Internet, and they are even more angry!
ESPN expert Kendra Andrews believes that LeBron James is primarily responsible for the Cavaliers' loss:
"He doesn't look the same as he did two years ago against the Spurs......
"He's got too much ball, Mo Williams was a good ball-handling single-handler when he was with the Bucks, he's a threat with the ball, he's not averaging 6.3 assists per game with his playmaking skills, and it's the same with Delonte West, he's not known for his projection on the SuperSonics, and I think that's why the Cavaliers chose to trade for them!"
"But in this game...... That's no longer visible! β
"I've always had a question, if the Cavaliers' No. 1 and No. 2 positions are just catch-and-shoot, why don't they pick some players who are more focused on those two aspects?"
"The most disappointing ......"
"As the core of the team, LeBron James can't shoot in the open position, he is not a role player, in this game, he should know that it is because he misses the open position that the Magic team can unscrupulously empty him and shrink the formation!"
It's about 1,000 words.
Fans of the Cavaliers and LeBron saw the end and scolded directly on this expert's social software:
"Are you alright? Only to see that empty basket can't be shot? Can't see a big triple-double with LeBron 30 plus? β
"This guy must have a bad life!"
"To put it bluntly, it's jealousy, who can have LeBron's exaggerated ability!"
"If Howard and Lewis and Turkoglu were LeBron's teammates, would he not win? You let Li Wan take this knight team to try it! β
"I just want to say, if LeBron has a problem, then the rest of this Cavaliers team is going to kill themselves!"
β¦β¦
The controversy continued overnight.
"22-point victory, Cavaliers beat Lakers in the finals? First of all, ask me if the Magic team agrees? γ
"LeBron 30 plus "Big Triple Double" was powerless, and the Cavaliers defeated the Magic and lost by 22 points! γ
Accident! No one expected the first game between the Cavaliers and the Magic to be like this......"
"The reason for the Cavaliers' 22-point fiasco was found, and it was actually because of ......"
Early the next morning, reports of the match also appeared.
The Cleveland media believes that these bitches are targeting LeBron and the Cavaliers.
Usually LeBron wins or plays so well, but I haven't seen your coverage so hard?
There are so many people who are jealous of our children of the city!
As these reports spread, so did the discussion.
Mike Conley has already practiced with Tim Hardaway.
So I slept early last night!
Well......
He definitely didn't watch the Magic team play the Cavaliers because he thought that Li Wan was still playing the playoffs, but he was already fishing and distressed.
He sent four!
As a result, when he woke up early in the morning and saw the media and newspapers, he was so frightened that he hurriedly called Li Wan.
Li Wan probably just woke up, and he didn't seem to be awake when he spoke, but before hanging up the phone, Li Wan didn't forget to remind him: "Wait a while, you can help me talk to Greg, don't be so surprised to hear similar news in the future, look like you've never seen the world!" β
Mike Conley nodded approvingly, and he also saw the accompanying picture of Greg Oden.
It's really like an old hat!
In the evening, Li Wan received Oden's most sincere congratulations: fxxk you!
Game 2 of the series between the Lakers and the Rockets kicked off tonight, but many of the questions before the game were related to the Magic and the Cavaliers' G1.
From this, you can see how hot it is!
The point is that no one thought of it!
Kobe Bryant faced these questions at the beginning, and the unified answer was: "I care more about whether we can win the second game against the Rockets......
However, under the repeated questioning of this group of media, he finally said what he thought in his heart.
Frankly......
Surprised indeed!
Originally, before the game, these two teams were in his opinion......
Five-five-open!
Whoever wins is possible.
In the end, the difference between the two teams will not exceed 8 points.
As a result, the Magic won by almost 3 times the score.
If you obscure the name of the Cavaliers and replace it with the 76ers, it won't make a difference.
I don't know, I thought the 76ers were playing the repechage~
Then these Philadelphia gentlemen are also quite admirable!
It's all made people abuse scum, and they even dared to play the fifth game.
Either there's Stockholm syndrome, or there's enough of it!
Magic ......
It's really a lot stronger than Kobe Bryant thought.
"However, the series has just begun, no one knows what will happen next, maybe the Cavaliers didn't play well in the first game, and anything in the series can happen......"
Bryant's words made the group of Los Angeles reporters around him secretly breathe a sigh of relief.
Knowing that the Magic had beaten the Cavaliers by 22 points in the first game of the series, they were directly frightened.
The Lakers and the Cavaliers have played 6 games, and the difference in points does not necessarily add up to that much......
The overall strength of the Cavaliers is really strong!
They really didn't expect the Magic team to win so many points!
Of course, now, after Kobe Bryant finished speaking, they also reacted, this is the first game of the series, as Kobe Bryant said, the series is changing rapidly, if you don't get it right, the next game the Cavaliers will give the Magic a 22-point fiasco!
Don't worry, when the second game is over, you will know if the difference in strength between the Cavaliers and the Magic team is so exaggerated!
In the end, another reporter Kobe Bryant made a "small report": "Li Wan feels that this year's regular season MVP should be his ......"
Kobe Bryant chuckled, too lazy to say anything.
He did not doubt the authenticity of the reporter's words, he believed that Li Wan would definitely be able to say such a thing.
This guy is thick-skinned, he has personally learned it!
"I hope you will also bring my words to Li Wan!"
Bryant was referring to the fact that "the series has just begun, and no one knows what will happen......
The Cleveland media has never felt that Kobe Bryant has been so pleasing to the eye, and his words have reached the hearts of these "Gram villagers".
What does a game say?
Doesn't say anything at all!
Even if he wins by 69 points, isn't that still a one-game win?
Isn't the big score still 1-0?
As long as we win the second game of the series, then the big score can return to a 1-1 draw, and we can also take home advantage from the hands of the Magic!
When the time comes, we will be the ones who will lead!
The media in Cleveland sorted out the current situation.
The fighting spirit was rekindled.
At this time, Mike Brown's words filled them with confidence!
On his first appearance since last night, this year's "Best Coach Award" obviously didn't sleep well, and the whole eye bubble was a little swollen, and he looked very haggard.
He answered some of the controversy on the Internet and in the media, especially the question of LeBron James's possession:
"It's all my set-up, I think LeBron was best at the time with the ball, he was just doing what the manager was saying, he wasn't dominating the ball all the time...... There's no one better with the ball than LeBron, and that's the way it is at the moment, and I think he's done it perfectly! β
Mike Brown's words gave the Cavaliers and LeBron fans who were a little angry last night a chance to vent:
"See? The manager said that it was his arrangement! β
"Seriously, how could anyone think that LeBron has more balls is also a problem? In the case of the Cavaliers, they can only give the ball to LeBron! β
"You can all shut up now, right? It's the team's tactical arrangement...... If I were the head coach, I would definitely give the ball to LeBron! Is there anything to say about this? β
If these words made them speak louder, Mike Brown's next words made them completely crazy!
"LeBron has had some stomach problems since he got into the playoffs, but he hasn't told us, which has caused him to not be in great shape, but he's definitely going to adjust quickly, and I think everybody knows that, he's the kind of guy he is......"
Do you hear that?
Do you hear that?
LeBron is playing with a stomach problem in this game!
But he didn't say it!
God knows how many injuries he's hiding!
No way......
Can't go on thinking about it anymore!
Cavaliers and LeBron fans burst into tears!
The "little emperor" is too hard!
He really wants to win!
In such a situation, he still played a "big triple double" of 30 plus, what else is there to black?
You must be jealous!
Wait, when LeBron adjusts, it will definitely swell your face!
At the same time, LeBron James also received a call from his new agent and good buddy, Rich Paul, who has just returned from CAA.
"Man, listen, then you need to follow Mike Brown's words and admit that you do have some injuries, and it doesn't hurt to have more, like your ankle problem......"
LeBron frowned a little: "Dude, does it need this?" β
There's nothing wrong with his form!
He really did his best last night......
Besides, 30 plus "three pairs"!
This shouldn't be......
Is it still glorious despite defeat?
"Of course...... Richie Paul replied in the affirmative, "don't forget, you're a king, and a king doesn't have a bad state or a time when he's at his limit." β
"If there is...... There must be an external influence! Don't worry, I've already communicated with the people at Nike, and they will immediately arrange for the media to cooperate with our publicity, and we will try to combine this with the Michael Jordan flu incident back then...... Hey, man, don't worry too much, it's their usual tactic, we need to protect our image, don't we? β
As Rich Paul spoke, he found that LeBron had not spoken, and immediately opened his mouth to explain. After hearing LeBron say "um" and motioning for him to continue, he returned to the topic just now:
"In a situation where this series could be lost, man, we have to protect your image!"
LeBron was silent for a few seconds, and finally his eyes became firm.
He knew Richie Paul wasn't wrong.
Protecting the "King" brand is the most important thing!
In the afternoon media release time, LeBron, who was in a good mood, acquiesced to Mike Brown's words, and then expressed his determination: "I know this is not a reason, and I will not use this as an excuse for the loss, I did not score in the open shot, this is my problem, I will make up for it in the second game of the series, so ...... Let's see what happens next! β
His statement brought the atmosphere to the climax.
The dark clouds in the Cleveland sky dissipated at this moment.
The Cleveland Cavaliers are hopeful again!
This excitement, I don't know, I thought that in the first game of the series, they were the ones who won......
There is a saying that LeBron's influence on the city of Cleveland has indeed reached the point of deep bone marrow!
At the same time that the Cavaliers finished the interview, Li Wan also ended the training here, and when he returned home and turned on the TV, the game between the Lakers and the Rockets had begun.
As soon as Li Wan sat down, he saw Yao Ming succeed in single-handedly beating Bynum.
The face of the "little shark" was full of depression.
During the whole process, he only had time to push his crotch for a while, and then ......
There is no then.
Before he could react, the ball had already passed through the net and landed on the ground.
It is worth mentioning that I don't know if Li Wan's memory is wrong.
Or the butterfly effect, it's coming again.
He remembered that Yao Ming was originally hit by Kobe Bryant in the first game of the series, and then the injury was reimbursed.
But now Yao Ming finished the first game unharmed.
Although the result of the first game of the series has also changed, it was supposed to be a win for the Rockets, but it became a win for the Lakers. - Of course, if the Houstonians knew that a victory would not hurt Yao Ming, they would definitely be willing to change.
Because......
"Phew!"
On TV, Yao Ming once again grabbed an offensive rebound from Bynum, and then scored a second offense.
As soon as it opened, there was a 2-of-2 shooting.
With his help, the Rockets also started the game with a 6-1 run.
I have to admit that Yao Ming in '09 has really reached the best state of his career.
Whether it is personal experience, or the combination of skills and body, it has reached his personal peak.
According to ESPN's statistics, the person with the highest scoring efficiency in the league's penalty area this season is none other than Yao Ming!
Even Howard, who eats bread, is inferior to him in efficiency!
It can be seen how hard the "Little Giant of the East" is this season!
Yao Ming's state tonight is obviously very good, after the first half, his statistics were 6 of 6 shots, 3 of 3 free throws, and scored 15 points with free throws.
When Bynum's half-time time came, he was dizzy when he went to the players' tunnel.
He was really confused by Yao Ming!
Completely overwhelmed.
The Rockets, also led by Yao Ming, took a six-point lead in the first half.
The Lakers reporter tweeted: "Seriously, I don't know how many people, like me now, miss Kwame Brown immensely! β
In 15 minutes, there were 1,000 comments on this tweet.
90% of the fans think the same way as him, and the remaining 10% of the fans, as you can see from their tone, miss them a little more......
Although Kwamei Brown can't defend against Yao Ming alone, he can last longer!
Bynum was playing with his phone, and when he saw these comments, he looked at the ice pack tied to his knees, and he was very aggrieved!
It's not that I haven't worked hard, but I just can't stop it, what can I do?
If you don't encourage it, forget it, you still want to exchange me for that "parallel import"! - Well, while most people no longer refer to Kwame Brown as a "parallel trader", Bynum is clearly in the minority.
Well, it can't be ruled out that it has something to do with the fact that many people think that Kwame Brown is stronger than him, and he can't fill the hole where Kwame Brown left!
With Bynum's brain, naturally he won't give such a guy a good face!
Wait, I'll prove it later......
The Lakers' interior doesn't need to miss Kwame Brown, just have me......
What a fart!
Before the start of the second half, Bynum was talking nonsense, and when the two quarters of the second half were over, he sat on the bench on the sidelines in a delirious manner, shaking his head slightly, constantly muttering something in his mouth, with a face of "Shi Lezhi".
The gentle Gasol approached and listened: "I can do it, I will definitely be able to do it, how can I not do it?" How could I not? Am I really not good? No, it can't be, I can do it, I can do it......"
The self-talk of "Infinite Matryoshka" proves one thing......
"Little Shark" was beaten and shut up!
Pau Gasol looks towards the post-match stats.
Yao Ming made 13 of 15 shots and 8 of 9 free throws to score 34 points......
Good guys, can this not be autistic?
In addition, Battier and Artest are even more shameless today, and the two of them are staring at Kobe, Ariza scored 4 three-pointers in the whole game, and he still focused on Kobe.
As it turned out, Kobe Bryant cut high scores, and the Lakers were easy to lose; If Kobe Bryant scores less, the Lakers will still lose!
8-of-24 shooting......
Quite a coincidence!
It happened to be two phases of Kobe's career.
It's a pity that although the numbers are good, the final hit rate is not very good, 33.3%......
He didn't play well, and Bynum was blown up again.
In the end of this game, the Rockets also successfully completed revenge in Staples, 104-96, rewriting the big score into a 1-1 draw!
Leaving Staples with home advantage!
Li Wan looked at the appearance of Battier and Artest side by side, and his saliva almost flowed.
The Magic's wing defense is already strong, but it is put together with the Rockets......
The real gap is immediate.
"Mr. Water Mirror" has a cloud: Wolong and phoenix chicks have one of them, and they can win the world!
If Li Wan got an Artest or Battier, he would definitely dare to pat his chest and say: "I have swept the knights, and Jesus can't stop me from what I said!" β
After watching the game, he went to bed early.
Early the next morning, the reporter brought Kobe's words to Li Wan as promised. - Kobe Bryant dragged me to give you a word!
Li Wan only has a three-word evaluation of this: dead tsundere!
To others, Kobe Bryant may be saying that no amount of winning a win means anything.
But as Li Wan, who is familiar with Kobe's character, he can be sure that Kobe is reminding him to be careful of the other side "not talking about martial arts", to be careful, and to be ready to "flash" at any time.
Especially when Li Wan heard from reporters that Kobe Bryant deliberately repeated it and asked him to bring the words to Orlando. Li Wan is even more affirmative!
But well......
He really wanted the reporter to bring back a sentence: The little snake snake is too worried!
The Magic team plays the Cavaliers, it's not a question of whether there is a gap in strength!
Speaking of strength on paper alone, there is not much difference between the two sides.
The Cavaliers have LeBron as a superstar, and the Magic don't have players of this caliber on both ends of the floor, but they do have more All-Star and above members.
So half a catty and eight taels......
But the advantage of the Magic team is not the strength of the players, but the style of the team!
That's where they really excel.
How to say it!
As far as the configuration of the Orlando Magic team is concerned, playing the Cavaliers, that is, "dad beating son"!
Their style is too restrained for the Cavaliers......
It's just that Li Wan soon discovered that this round of the series really didn't seem to be that simple......
On May 3, the second game of the series between the Magic and the Cavaliers came as scheduled.
The arena is still at Amway Arena!
The big win in the last game made tonight's Amway Arena look even more crowded, and the whole arena felt like it was about to be crowded!
All Magic fans have two words on their faces: happy!
Oh no!
Two more words:
Expect!
Since Game 1 of the series was able to put the Cavaliers 22 points behind, that feat can be replicated tonight!
They are already waiting for a "gluttonous feast" to arrive!
This is really Orlando's era......
Two years ago, how could Magic fans dare to imagine that their own team could beat the "pride of the sky" like this!
They all beat him out of "stomach problems"!
Look, how ruthless!
Thinking of something happy, they looked towards LeBron James.
At this time, they suddenly found out that tonight's LeBron ......
Looks a little murderous!
Usually when they look at LeBron, they already have a domineering feeling of "no one is allowed to enter", but tonight, this guy is holding his knees in his hands, raising his head, and his eyes are just looking at the people of the Magic team entering the arena, as if he is going to skin the opponent alive.
It's the LeBron they've never seen before......
Cleveland fans also felt his resolute courage in LeBron's eyes!
What is the "spirit of the king"!
This is the "spirit of the king"!
They believe that something big will happen tonight!
Orlando, get ready to feel the coercion of "the wrath of the Son of Heaven and the ambush of millions of corpses"!
Finally, the game officially began.
From the Magic team to the current LeBron, he finally made a move, he high-fived every teammate, and then rubbed his hands, waiting for Big Z to jump with Howard!
Ball......
It was still grabbed by Howard first.
Li Wan carried the ball to the front court by himself.
The first time Turkoglu came over to catch the ball, LeBron got entangled.
Originally, the Turks didn't take it seriously, but when he fought against him, he felt that something was wrong......
This guy, why is he fighting so fiercely today?
Tecoglou, who was also going to use the "triple threat" posture to force LeBron to retreat, almost lost his footing in LeBron's constant confrontation.
He could only give the ball back to Li Wan.
Lee Wan holds the ball and faces Mo Williams.
The latter's attitude is also much more positive than the previous one.
I just don't know if I'm infected by LeBron's momentum, or ......
Let the Cavaliers fans on the Internet scold and be afraid!
However, positivity is positivity, Li Wan turned his back to face him, he didn't have any way to interfere, waiting for Li Wan to suddenly turn around sharply, he could only watch Li Wan rush past him.
It's really unstoppable!
Mo-Williams muttered bitterly in his heart.
It's like saying it to himself, like saying it to the fans who attacked him on the Internet.
As soon as Li Wan reached the free throw line, he watched LeBron make up for him.
Beast-like eyes stared at Li Wan.
Li Wan didn't panic, waiting for him to get closer, and then passed the ball towards Tekoglu.
The Cavaliers switched defenses quite quickly this time, and Delonte West quickly switched to Tekoglu.
LeBron just needs to go and pounce on Michael Petrus.
"Bang dang!"
Successful interference, the ball misses.
Big Z took the place of the card and helped Valacho hold the rebound.
LeBron ran to catch the ball.
When he arrived in the frontcourt, the entire formation of the Magic team had been set, and just like the previous game, it was still mainly to narrow the encirclement to prevent him from breaking through.
But this time, LeBron didn't hesitate at all, and immediately held the ball and forced it in when he stepped on the three-point line.
Tekoglu carried it twice, but he couldn't bear it.
You can only watch LeBron go into the box.
Howard watched the speed at which "Little Emperor" rushed into the interior and knew that it was impossible to stand in front of a reasonable collision zone and make a foul, so he simply put LeBron in and confronted him head-on.
Loeb?
- James's tank-like breakthrough can be regarded as one of the "five uniques" of the current league.
But the premise is not to touch those who have "meat shields" in the team.
Although the "meat shield" of the Magic team is not strong in the lower limbs, its confrontation ability is definitely at the same level as LeBron.
"Phew!"
A dull ring.
In Howard's confrontation, he completed a perfect interference, LeBron couldn't avoid him, and could only barely create a relatively larger shot space with a stay in the air, but unfortunately Howard's physical fitness is indeed superhuman-level.
"Bang dang!"
The shot that was too difficult finally popped out of the frame.
But......
"Both!"
The whistle is blowing!
