ps:ps: I am really sorry. I just found out that the numbers in the chapter have jumped so long. I am really sorry... But it is definitely not easy to change now, so I hope everyone will forgive me. The writing of this book is about to end, and Mushroom has begun to approve the next basketball book.
Thank you very much to my friends who still support subscribing until now. I really, I sincerely thank you everyone!
Wu Dawei became the hero of Cleveland tonight. When his attack before the last second not only destroyed the Miami people's attempt to sweep them before the game began, it also saved the last bit of face of the Cleveland Cavaliers, the defending champion!
For them, the victory of this game is of course of great significance. It not only ends their own three-game losing streak against the Miami Heat, which avoids the embarrassing record of being swept by the opponent in the regular season, but also helps the Cleveland Cavaliers break the record of the longest winning streak in the Miami team history this season, with a 27-game winning streak!
This is definitely a very satisfying thing for the Cleveland Cavaliers who lost to the Miami Heat in three consecutive games before this!
After winning this game tonight, the Cleveland Cavaliers once again achieved an eight-game winning streak, which turned their record this season into 44 wins and 28 losses!
No one can imagine that at the end of the first half of the season, the Cleveland Cavaliers, who had a record of 22 wins and 27 losses, could have such a terrifying winning rate in the second half of the season!
Currently, they are ranked fourth in the Eastern Conference with such an excellent record. After this game tonight, the Cleveland Cavaliers have completed the overtake of the Boston Celtics who have been ahead of them!
The Boston Celtics also had games tonight, but they lost to their opponents. In this way, the difference between the winners and loses one game between the two sides was smoothed out at this time!
The Boston Celtics' current record is also 44 wins and 28 losses, but due to the difference in winning and losing between the two sides, the Cleveland Cavaliers were able to step on the shoulders of the Bostonians and become the top four in the East!
Although such a fourth-place position is very likely to be overtaken by the Bostonians at any time, no matter what, the Cleveland Cavaliers finally officially became one of the top four in the Eastern Conference at this time!
And judging from their current state and momentum, it is obvious that they will not be able to hand over the identity of the fourth place who has just won so quickly to the Bostonian!
When the players returned to the locker room, everyone looked extremely excited. This game injected too much energy into the players of the Cleveland Cavaliers, and the process of the game was also ups and downs. Although the players were tired after the end of this game, everyone was very excited.
This is a very good result, and it is true for any Cleveland Cavaliers player. The players have just entered the locker room and have not been able to rest for a long time. Cleveland Cavaliers head coach Byron Scott also entered the locker room at this time. The team's head coach was in the same mood as the players at this time!
Everyone seemed extremely excited. And Byron Scott was even more so. This season, because the team was always inconsistent in the first half of the season, Byron Scott was under great pressure! And now, for him, it almost means he has to end his hardships!
"We won a great victory, guys! And now I'm going to tell you all of you good news!"
Byron Scott rushes into the locker room and says this: "The Bostonians lose the game on the other side..."
As soon as this sentence was said, the entire Cleveland Cavaliers' locker room was filled with joy!
"What does this mean? We became the fourth place in the East!" Byron Scott shouted loudly among countless cheers.
Although the fourth place in the Eastern Conference is not a very good position, it is enough for the Cleveland Cavaliers, at least this will give them a home advantage in the first round of the playoffs!
For the Cleveland Cavaliers, it is certainly enough to be able to perform like this in the second half of the season when it was so bad in the first half of the season.
In the first half of the season, their goal was to enter the playoffs, but now, they are actually competing for the home advantage in the playoffs! This is of course a very incredible thing!
Because these are things that made the Clevelanders feel unimaginable before this. And after defeating the Miami Heat and ending the opponent's 27-game winning streak, the Cleveland Cavaliers players can imagine what kind of strong words will be used in the newspaper tomorrow morning to report this game tonight after it ends!
Undoubtedly, this is a surprising result, and it will definitely change people's changes in the Cleveland Cavaliers' view before this. They will be reintroduced into the ranks of popular contenders for the championship, and the current Cleveland Cavaliers do have the capital to return to the ranks of such contenders.
Although the record of 44 wins and 28 losses is not the best in the current league. At the same time, there are still three teams in the Eastern Conference that are much better than the Cleveland Cavaliers. The Indiana Pacers, currently ranked third, have a record of 46 wins and 26 losses. In the process, although the New York Knicks have frequently encountered failures in recent times, their current record is still 49 wins and 20 losses!
And further up is the Miami Heat's 52 wins and 18 losses!
In the Western Conference, the Oklahoma City Thunder has a record of 50 wins and 19 losses, while the San Antonio Spurs also has a record of 50 wins and 20 losses. In the Los Angeles Clippers and Denver Nuggets have also achieved excellent results.
So the Cleveland Cavaliers still have no big advantage in their record, but it is because of their outstanding performance since the beginning of the second half of the season that people cannot ignore them!
And now, when they ended the Miami people's crazy 27 consecutive victories in this game tonight, it is definitely even more impossible for the outside world to ignore the current Cleveland Cavaliers!
After they re-entered the top four in the Eastern Conference, it was an inexplicable encouragement for the Cleveland Cavaliers! Because this allowed the players to see that their efforts were not in vain and they gained rewards.
From the ninth or even tenth place in the Eastern Conference in the first half of the season, it has risen all the way to the fourth place in the Eastern Conference! It is no exaggeration to say that it is a Rockets at such a speed!
So how could the Clevelanders not feel happy and happy at this time? And they defeated their mortal enemy. It’s not that everyone knows how arrogant the Miami people were before the start of this game!
So after defeating the Miami Heat and ending the opponent's 27-game winning streak, the Clevelanders are naturally as happy as the festival!
Of course, the happiest person is Wu Dawei! At the beginning of this game, Dwyane Wade and LeBron James took turns to provoke him! He was not able to refute them at the time, but now, even if Wu Dawei no longer has any quarrels with them, all good reports will be overwhelming toward him!
Who told me and my team to be the winners of this game?
Wu Dawei's performance in the post-match interview also showed great excitement. Faced with the reporter's questions, every word Wu Dawei said was from the heart!
After all, the playoffs are getting closer and closer, and there is not much time left for the Cleveland Cavaliers. At this time, being able to defeat the Miami Heat and end the opponent's terrifying winning streak will be bright for the Cleveland Cavaliers in the next game!
This alone is enough to make them feel extremely excited. And after defeating the Miami Heat, they did not have many strong opponents left in the remaining regular season games of the Cleveland Cavaliers.
The only one is probably the Cleveland Cavaliers' opponent in the finals last season! Although the Thunder are equally powerful, they are Western Conference teams after all, so compared to this game, of course, this game tonight is more important!
Because the Cleveland Cavaliers want to stand on the stage of the finals again, they must first break through the siege in the Eastern Conference! So compared to the Oklahoma City Thunder, the Miami Heat will definitely meet the Cleveland Cavaliers first!
However, this does not mean that the game against the Thunder is not important. After all, if the Cleveland Cavaliers really break out of the Eastern Conference, then they still have to have a seven-game four-win series with the Western Conference champions to finally decide the ownership of the O'Brien Cup this season!
Of course, it is a bit too early to say this now. However, the Cleveland Cavaliers are currently experiencing an eight-game winning streak, so if they can win a complete victory in the next game, it is of course the best choice!
After all, it is not far from the playoffs. If the current momentum can be continued, it will be a very good thing for the Cleveland Cavaliers. Because of their decline in the first half of the season, the Clevelanders will of course hope from the bottom of their heart that they can continue such a strong momentum in the second half of the season and then sweep the entire league!
After completing the final three consecutive losses to the Miami Heat this season, it is obvious that the Cleveland Cavaliers have taken a solid first step! (To be continued, please search for Piaotianyi, the novel is better, updated and faster!
