288. Still a bad start

At the end of the first quarter, the overall situation was behind the New York Knicks, who played at home. The poor performance at the beginning of the game was the key reason why the Cleveland Cavaliers fell behind in this game tonight.

If it weren't for the fact that the game had been dug too much at the beginning of the game, the Cleveland Cavaliers wouldn't have been 6 points for the New York Knicks who were playing at home at the end of the first quarter.

However, although they played an extremely bad three-minute game at the beginning, the Cleveland Cavaliers' performance in the next 9 minutes in the first quarter was still very good.

The main reason why this game has attracted much attention is of course because of the various grudges between Wu Dawei and the New Yorkers! Especially the gap between him and Cameron Anthony, the current star of the New York Knicks, is the focus of people's attention.

In this game tonight, Wu Dawei played for 9 minutes in the first quarter, and in these 9 minutes, Wu Dawei obviously became the savior of the Cleveland Cavaliers!

The performance of 10 points, 3 assists and 2 steals made Wu Dawei the most eye-catching player in the first quarter. However, even though Wu Dawei showed such data, the player who performed the best in the first quarter was still not Wu Dawei, but Cameron Anthony who faced Wu Dawei.

Cameron Anthony played for 10 minutes in the first quarter, and in these ten minutes, Cameron Anthony scored 17 points! He was the player with the highest score in the first quarter!

If Wu Dawei's 10-point performance in a single quarter is enough to be amazing, then if Cameron Anthony's 17 points are converted into the whole game, it would be like a rampage!

In such an excellent state at the core of the team, it is natural for the New York Knicks to lead!

For the New York Knicks, the result of such a first-quarter game is acceptable to them. Because even before this game began, they never thought that they could lead the Cleveland Cavaliers significantly in the game, and even expanded the gap to more than double digits at one point!

Although it is indeed a pity to be caught up by the Cleveland Cavaliers, fortunately, they still maintained their advantage. This is the best they did in the first quarter. Although the Cleveland Cavaliers once played high chaos, they were not in trouble because of this. They quickly came out and stabilized their leading advantage!

This is a very important thing for the New York Knicks who play at home. Because it is precisely because of this that they can lead the Cleveland Cavaliers by as much as 6 points at the end of the first quarter.

This will definitely not be a good result for the Cleveland Cavaliers. Because they lag behind and the team's head coach Byron Scott's most dissatisfied with is the team's performance on the defensive end.

Even Wu Dawei, who has always been praised by Byron Scott on the defensive end, was criticized this time. Although after Wu Dawei replaced Cameron Anthony, Cameron Anthony scored only 7 points, Byron Scott was dissatisfied with Wu Dawei's assist in defense.

Perhaps it was because the two of them had a bickering in the game that Wu Dawei and Cameron Anthony were both competing against each other! And it was precisely because of the competition that the two of them would care about each other and ignore some of the situations around them.

But this is also human nature, and Wu Dawei is not a robot either.

However, it is unquestionable that the current situation is not optimistic for the Cleveland Cavaliers who play away. It is agreed that they must change this status quo as soon as possible.

"Forget our previous games, forget our nine consecutive wins, forget everything before. Guys! What we have to do now is to catch up the gap behind in the next second quarter! We have to play our tough and play our rhythm! Don't give them too many opportunities to break through, and also prevent them from going crazy outside the three-point line!"

Before the second quarter started, Byron Scott told all the players: "This is indeed a tough game, but it cannot be an excuse for us! We have to face the difficulties!"

The second quarter soon kicked off again, and for the Cleveland Cavaliers, they must quickly find their familiar game rhythm and state in the following games.

Because this is the opponent's home court after all, it is easy for people to get lost if they fall behind on other people's territory for too long.

So although the second quarter game has just begun, the Cleveland Cavaliers are still trying hard to get away with. After the second quarter game began, they quickly launched a bombardment in the first half of the New Yorker!

The fierce offensive also achieved good results at the beginning. The Cleveland Cavaliers scored 4 points in a row after the start of the second quarter, but at this moment their good momentum came to an abrupt end!

Because the New York Knicks' drawl man JR Smith went wild at this time, and the JR Smith's contract with the New York Knicks this season is about to expire, so his condition is surprisingly good this season!

It can even be said that I dreamed of the level of the best sixth man in the Denver Nuggets! And when JR Smith got out of the way, the difficulty of the game naturally began to increase again for the Cleveland Cavaliers.

Because JR. Smith's habitual unreasonable shooting outside the three-point line also makes people feel very painful! This is difficult to prevent, so the performance that the Cleveland Cavaliers played at the beginning of the second quarter was soon counterattacked by the New Yorkers again!

This is of course a bad signal for them, but even worse is still behind.jr. Smith was unable to stop after getting fucked, so as the game progressed, the Cleveland Cavaliers not only failed to narrow the gap in the score after the start of the second quarter, but were still some behind scores by the opponent.

This is something that Cleveland Cavaliers head coach Byron Scott could not tolerate, which made him feel very angry, but he also knew that it was not all possible to blame the players.

So at this time, all he could do was to dispatch troops quickly, at least to stop the team's decline! This situation made the New York fans on the sidelines even more excited. In the first quarter, the performance of the team's core Cameron Anthony was enough to make them feel surprised, and now the team's best sixth man, JR. Smith, also made them feel extremely surprised!

This is the picture they want to see, just ravage the Clevelanders like this! Let them see how powerful the New York Knicks are this season!

The top attack firepower in the New York Knicks league is not something the Cleveland Cavaliers can resist!

Under such circumstances, Wu Dawei naturally returned to the basketball court very early. Of course, this was not the rotation arrangement designed by Byron Scott before, but at this time he had to make such a decision. As the team's best performance in the first quarter, Wu Dawei's appearance will definitely bring great help to the Cleveland Cavaliers.

The only good thing is that Byron Scott only let Wu Dawei play for 9 minutes in the first quarter, so he left the court to rest, so even if he did not get the most sufficient rest time at this time, it was already enough.

Wu Dawei re-boarded the court about three minutes after the second quarter. The reason was all because of JR. Smith's performance, otherwise Wu Dawei could sit in the chair and rest for a longer time.

At this time, the score has become 32:42! Now the Cleveland Cavaliers have to face more than just Cameron Anthony who scored 17 points in a single quarter. At the same time, Wu Dawei is now standing on the basketball court, and the one standing opposite him is JR Smith, who has already scored 7 points after the start of the second quarter!

Two tricky and troublesome guys!

After Wu Dawei came on the court, Mike Woodson, the head coach of the New York Knicks, did not send Cameron Anthony to play against Wu Dawei. Obviously, the team's double-digit lead at this time was the biggest reliance of the team's head coach.

So he decided to give Cameron Anthony more rest time to play 10 minutes in the first quarter, and he believed that JR Smith, who is in a very good state, would have enough to make Wu Dawei feel a headache!

Mike Woodson hopes to master the rhythm of this game well. He wants to win this game steadily and not allow any mistakes!

So in Mike Woodson's view, if he can command the game step by step, it means that the game will be sure to win.

The Cleveland Cavaliers are in a bad situation now, but since the beginning of this game, the situation they face has not improved, at least that's how Wu Dawei sees it.

There have been so many accidents in this game tonight!
