Once the game started, the Cavaliers took the lead in attacking.

In the entanglement of Ragabel, James did not have a good offensive opportunity.

Ricky Davis got the ball back to organize the offense, broke through to a hand inside and scored two points under the basket.

Turning back to Wade's attack, Ragabel and Marion ran without the ball in the pick-and-roll.

After Carlisle started the new season, he tried to transform Wade into a point guard, and with Payton to teach him, Wade's adaptability was not bad.

Although he won the first game, Wade was not as skilled in organizing the offense as Payton, and more often than not, he relied on his individual ability to create opportunities.

To be a good playmaker, Wade needs to play less with the ball and more with the ball in the team.

Wade, who is more organization-oriented, made Marion, who did not have many opportunities to shoot in the first game, perform well in this game.

He is a hacker who is not good at holding the ball, and he is very comfortable running without the ball on the offensive end.

Many times under the cover of teammates, you can find relatively safe space to shoot, and sometimes outside the three-point line, you can also run out of large gaps.

At this point, Wade, who has not yet developed outside projection skills, is not as good as Marion.

In the first offensive round of the Suns, after receiving a pass from Miller on the inside, Marion scored three points with a knife in his hand.

It was the Cavaliers' turn to attack again, and this time Wade was forced to foul Ricky Davis early while defending him, sending him to the free-throw line.

Two free throws and two hits.

In the offensive round, O'Neal singled with his back and scored two more points.

Myers misses a shot, Big Z scrambles for a rebound and fouls, and the ball is given to the Suns.

Wade shook off the defender in the offense, received a pass from O'Neal, picked up James, who came over to make up the defense, and flew close to the ground to break through to the basket, O'Neal had already helped Wade free up space for the layup, and the two points were easily closed.

That's it.

The first quarter of the game lasted for seven minutes, and under the defense of Ragabel, James did not score a point, handed out 1 assist, 1 turnover and 3 rebounds.

It seems that the score of the two sides is very anxious, but James was blocked by Ragabel and Marion, and he shot 0 of 3.

With three and a half minutes left in the game, James scored a point on a free throw, making one of two free throws.

The head coaches of both sides have replaced their starters one after another, and at this moment only Wade and James are the only starters left on the court.

On a fast-break counterattack, Wade scored two points on a dunk and was subsequently substituted.

Maybe it was because he couldn't hang his face when he saw this situation, James finally hit the first shot, took a pass from Big Z, and hit a three-pointer.

In the first quarter, James made 1 of 6 shots and 1 of 2 free throws to score four points.

Wade scored eight points on 3-of-4 shooting and 2-of-2 from the free-throw line.

The camera shows the two people sitting on the bench after the game, and the huge difference in their expressions also reflects whether the two people are satisfied with their performance.

The first quarter ended with the Suns leading by five points at 32-27.

This is 03 years, and when each team averages 80 or 90 points per game in the season, the team has been able to score 32 points in one quarter, and the offense can be imagined.

The first quarter is a battle against offense, then the second quarter is a battle on defense.

From the beginning of the substitute players, the defensive intensity is very high, listening to the referee's whistle and the crackling on the field, Bai Fan can feel how intense the physical contact is.

Muscle collisions.

Water stains splash.

Sitting in the first row, you can clearly see the impact of the movement.

In this game, because the Cavaliers are not a strong team, their bench players are all decent, and Carlisle boldly uses Haslem and Matt Bonner.

These two rookies, who are still playing for the first time this season, have directly partnered on the inside.

Both are defensive players, plus Payton, who is on the bench in this game, and the players on the Cavaliers' bench can't escape the Suns' defense at all.

After playing for more than a minute, the Cavaliers did not score a point, and the difference was widened to nine points, and they were forced to replace James in advance.

Carlisle beckoned to Ragabel on the bench and also sent him in advance to target James.

The second quarter played three and a half minutes, and there were no points on both sides, and there were a lot of foul turnovers.

Looking at the situation, both sides changed their starters.

However, once the pace of the game is in place, it is very difficult to turn the tide of the game.

The starting five did not continue to steal points in the first quarter, and continued the high-intensity defense in the second quarter.

The worst thing is the interior player of the Cavaliers, who has already received his third foul before the second quarter of the game is finished.

If you want to make kills, O'Neill is absolutely unyielding.

With O'Neill Pearl in front, Wade is naturally not to be outdone.

It didn't take long for two breakaways to cause two fouls by Ricky Davis.

Also in foul trouble was Ragabel, who had one foul in the first quarter and two more fouls in the second quarter.

Carlisle is unhurried, Ragabel is off, and Payton can top up.

However, Payton is old after all, and his speed and strength can't keep up with the young James, and Carlisle asked Wade to mark James on defense and handed Ricky Davis to Payton.

The Suns have a deep family background, and the Cavaliers don't dare to do that.

As soon as Big Z got off the court, O'Neill really got what he wanted on the inside.

Ricky Davis also stayed on the court, but the defensive action was much smaller.

With 58 seconds left in the second quarter, the Suns attacked, and O'Neal held the ball with his back to single Big Z.

In order to give Big Z more rest, O'Neal turned his back and slipped to the baseline and made a backhand layup, deliberately making the ball a little slower.

The referee's whistle blows.

Big Z didn't end the first half and received his fourth foul.

The Cavaliers had no choice but to replace Big Z, and they simply didn't have long time left, and the first half ended like this.

O'Neal Human Essence hits one of two free throws.

There are still fifty seconds left in the game.

The Cavaliers relied on James' unreasonable three-pointers to maintain the margin at 9 points.

On the final offense, Payton pressed the clock to the end, the ball was hoisted inside, and O'Neal extended the score to double digits again.

The ball was sent out in the end, and Ricky Davis missed a long-range three-pointer near the center circle.

The Suns led by eleven points at 51:40 heading into the second half.

Although the Cavaliers still have the heart to fight, it is a pity that after Big Z and Ricky Davis both committed six fouls, James was unable to stand alone.

Soon the fourth quarter went into garbage time.

In the last five minutes, both sides sent full substitutions and began training mode.

In the end, the Suns defeated the Cavaliers 98-82 and won the opening two consecutive games.

O'Neal scored a game-high 27 points, along with 11 rebounds, one steal and four blocks.

Wade played steadily, with 24 points, 7 assists, 2 rebounds and 1 steal.

Marion was the third biggest contributor in the game, with 15 points, 8 rebounds, 1 assist and 1 steal.

The rest of the players didn't score in double figures, with Miller scoring a maximum of nine points.
