For Cleveland Cavaliers head coach Byron Scott, the adjustments he made in the second quarter were quite useful because the team successfully blocked the Oklahoma attack in the timeout after the timeout!

This alone is enough to make him feel relieved. After all, the 7-point lead cannot be easily achieved, and it is also a very difficult thing for the Cleveland Cavaliers.

And Byron Scott accurately guessed that after the timeout, Thunder coach Brooks would definitely send the starters back to the basketball court, so he also replaced most of the starters after the timeout.

It is precisely because of this that the Cleveland Cavaliers were able to withstand the Oklahoman bombing after the timeout! This alone was enough to make Byron Scott feel very happy.

After most of the second quarter, the Cleveland Cavaliers, who were at home, always adhered to the 7-point advantage that the team scored just at the beginning of the second quarter!

This is of course very helpful for them to win this game tonight, and the Oklahoman will become very uncomfortable.

Especially Kevin Durant, after returning to the basketball court, he did help the Oklahoma City Thunder to score points one after another, but what made him helpless was that although his efficiency on the offensive end was still very good, he still could not help the Oklahoma City Thunder to take the lead in this game tonight.

Although Wu Dawei was not able to limit Kevin Durant's offense tonight, this was a place that made Kevin Durant very proud; but when he returned to the defensive end of the Oklahoma City Thunder, Kevin Durant was also unable to defend Wu Dawei's offense when he was against Wu Dawei!

This is what makes Durant feel extremely anxious, because in this way, although Wu Dawei cannot use defense to limit Kevin Durant to send the ball into the basket, he can use his own scoring to widen the score difference before Kevin Durant uses his score to narrow it!

This made Kevin Durant very unwilling, so of course he wanted to try to play a tougher defense. When facing Wu Dawei's attack, Kevin Durant didn't want to return to the locker room with a disadvantage!

This is a long-term behind in the away game, for a team that plays away games, it will definitely not be a good thing.

There is no doubt about this, so Kevin Durant doesn't want such a disadvantage to affect himself. So he naturally has to work hard to help the team closer. Fortunately, Russell Westbrook can help Kevin Durant share the pressure on the offensive end tonight.

Moreover, Russell Westbrook's impact is easy to cause damage in the paint area, and it is precisely because of this that Kevin Durant can devote his energy to some defensive ends.

The second quarter had a little more than half of the game, and the score was 37:44. The Cleveland Cavaliers still had the lead, and the ball was in the hands of the Oklahoma City Thunder.

Of course, the Oklahomans must ensure their every attack in such a disadvantageous situation. Because the success rate of each attack is the most critical thing for them to chase points.

Because only by scoring the goal first can they narrow the possibility of the score gap, and then the efforts they make on the next defensive end can be more meaningful!

This is unquestionable, so whether it is Russell Westbrook, Kevin Durant, or Serge Ibaka, he will choose his best attack method when getting the ball on the offensive end.

When Russell Westbrook held the ball, his choice would naturally not be unexpected, that is, he would choose to hit the basket. Although the Cleveland Cavaliers have Dwight Howard guarded the inside, this would not make Russell Westbrook feel afraid!

Whenever he held the ball, his first choice was to hit the basket without hesitation, and Dwight Howard not every time could defend Russell Westbrook's attack.

Just like this time, Westbrook hit the basket and then faced Dwight Howard's repair to prevent a big trolley, which was extremely spiritually sent the ball into the basket!

A very beautiful aerial operation! Not only did Russell Westbrook send the ball into the basket and get two points, but it also instantly made the fans on the sidelines of the Quick Loan Center shut their mouths.

39:44! The gap in the score has been narrowed to 5 points again. For the Oklahoma City Thunder, this has happened many times in this quarter.

But although every appearance brings hope to the Oklahoman, when the Cleveland Cavaliers complete the offense, such hope is immediately shattered. Both sides go back and forth, almost you enter one mode, or if you don’t enter one mode, I don’t enter one mode...

In this way, the score gap naturally remained around 7 points. Although the Cleveland Cavaliers were unwilling to see this happen, because after having a 7-point lead, they would naturally beg for a greater lead; and the reason for the Oklahoma City Thunder at this moment is naturally to work hard to narrow the gap between the two sides.

However, compared to this, the Cleveland Cavaliers will definitely be more relaxed, and the Oklahomas at the disadvantage must be more anxious. No matter what, even if the leading advantage is no longer expanded, the Cleveland Cavaliers still have a 7-point lead; but if such a gap cannot be narrowed, then for the Oklahoma City Thunder, it means that they have to enter the second half with such a 7-point disadvantage!

Of course this will not be something that makes the Oklahoman happy, especially the team's core Kevin Durant, who is even more unhappy at this time. So of course he will hope to help the Oklahoma City Thunder narrow or even tie the gap between the two sides at this time.

But obviously this is not easy, because the Cleveland Cavaliers' performance on the offensive end is also very good, especially Wu Dawei. He has currently scored 16 points and 7 assists half-time game data!

There is no doubt that he once again dominated the offensive end, which made Kevin Durant grit his teeth. Because Wu Dawei was the one who played against him throughout the game, it can be said that the two of them could not limit the opponent on both offense and defense.

Although such a balance of power is actually a breakthrough for Kevin Durant, in the finals last season, Wu Dawei's defense was difficult for Kevin Durant to feel uncomfortable.

But obviously Kevin Durant is not happy because of this. Because his goal in this game tonight is to win the game. If the situation on the basketball court continues like this, it will definitely not be a good thing for the Oklahoma City Thunder who plays away.

When Kevin Durant saw his backcourt partner Russell Westbrook forcibly breaking through the Cleveland Cavaliers' defense line and gained the upper hand in the battle with Dwight Howard to score the ball, Kevin Durant was of course very happy!

But looking back, when the Cleveland Cavaliers held the ball again, Kevin Durant's mood would not be so good. He wanted to defend the next ball, which was Kevin Durant's cry for himself in his heart.

But obviously this is not easy, because after Wu Dawei and Kevin Durant returned to the basketball court in the second quarter at the same time, Kevin Durant had never been able to defend Wu Dawei's offense successfully!

Whether Wu Dawei's own attack or finally chose the assist to pass, Kevin Durant was unable to defend! This of course made Kevin Durant feel very distressed and angry, so now when the team once again narrowed the gap to 5 points, Kyrie Irving passed the ball through halftime and once again handed the ball to Wu Dawei, Kevin Durant's face showed a bright spot!

Of course, Kevin Durant hates not only Wu Dawei, but also the entire Cleveland Cavaliers team. Especially Kyrie Irving. Whenever Kyrie Irving dribbles after halftime, he will choose to hand it over to Wu Dawei to deal with it immediately, Kevin Durant always shouts in his heart: Are you also an All-Star player? Why can't you take the initiative to attack once?

But obviously, Kevin Durant couldn't hear such a shout! So during this attack, he still chose to hand the ball over to Wu Dawei.

When Wu Dawei was holding the ball in his hand, Kevin Durant did not have the idle intention to complain about Kyrie Irving's style of acting on the basketball court.

Because at this time he had to concentrate on Wu Dawei's attack. Although this person who is not as good as his, his arms are not as strong as him, but he is stronger than him, has a huge impact on Kevin Durant!

So he dared not take any light actions, but Kevin Durant did not succeed even if he tried his best to defend Wu Dawei's attack before. So at this moment, he knew very well that if he followed the rules of defense, it would be very difficult to suppress Wu Dawei's performance.

"You can't get past my defense! It's not good to be chased by a mess! I know you can't resist it!"

Kevin Durant tried to use trash words to influence Wu Dawei's performance, but Wu Dawei was of course unmoved. In fact, in this game tonight, Kevin Durant's words were not a bit like that.

Almost from the beginning of this game, he began to chatter and spit out trash at Wu Dawei. However, Wu Dawei is extremely focused on victory now, because the situation the Cleveland Cavaliers are facing now, so Wu Dawei will hardly be distracted.

At this moment, Kevin Durant's ridiculous face further inspired Wu Dawei's fighting spirit. On the defensive end of this game tonight, Kevin Durant's performance originally made Wu Dawei feel very unhappy.

Now Kevin Durant's constant provocations have caused Wu Dawei's heart to be full of war!

Just as Kevin Durant was still spitting trash words at Wu Dawei, Wu Dawei suddenly launched an attack with lightning speed! Such a sudden attack also scared Kevin Durant standing in front of Wu Dawei!

"Damn!"

Fortunately, he also reacted quickly and immediately followed Wu Dawei's footsteps! However, Wu Dawei's sudden attack this time had already brought him some advantages, and his leading position helped Wu Dawei gain the lead in this offense!

Kevin Durant naturally fell behind Wu Dawei at this time, which would make him extremely passive. This was obviously not what he wanted to see, because he vowed to defend Wu Dawei's attack a few seconds ago, but in the blink of an eye, Wu Dawei once again gained the upper hand.

Of course, this is somewhat unacceptable to Kevin Durant, so he tried his best to keep up with Wu Dawei, but Wu Dawei always squeezed Kevin Durant with the advantage of tonnage!

And almost in the blink of an eye, both sides were about to rush into the paint area one by one, and seeing Wu Dawei getting closer and closer to the basket, Kevin Durant was of course anxious!

But he was never able to run to Wu Dawei at this time, which made him feel even more anxious!

Wu Dawei, who was in the lead, quickly plunged into the paint area. At this time, Kendrick Perkins had been pulled to the sideline by Dwight Howard, and Serge Ibaka's restoration defense was not fast enough. Kevin Durant did not get any support at this time, and Wu Dawei had already gained the upper hand in the confrontation with him.

Obviously, everything was running in a rapid direction that was unfavorable to the Oklahoma City Thunder. This was not what Kevin Durant wanted to see, so when he saw Wu Dawei rushing into the paint area, then jumped up and even made a shooting posture, Kevin Durant extended his "evil" hands without hesitation...

Of course it is not for defense, or for defense. But at this time, even if Kevin Durant has a pair of long arms that are beyond ordinary people, it is difficult to stop Wu Dawei from attacking the basket, so he subconsciously stretched out his hand and tried to use a foul to stop Wu Dawei's attack!

Obviously, this is not something that can always be successful. Although fouls can sometimes prevent certain unreachable shots, this is not something that can be achieved in a hundred attempts!

It was like this time, when Kevin Durant stretched out his clutches to Wu Dawei's shoulder, he pulled Wu Dawei's shoulder, and made Wu Dawei, who was flying in the air, lose balance instantly.

Wu Dawei's screams echoed over the Quick Loan Center at once, and the referee also blew the sound in his mouth. But even so, Wu Dawei's attack was still not over!

The moment when Kevin Durant was about to lose balance, Wu Dawei threw the ball into the basket! There was an empty defense in front of him. The ball thrown at the basket was not hindered at any time. Then, it actually plunged into the net after the whistle!

For a moment, the beautiful scenery of the Internet made the Cleveland fans of the Quick Loan Center forget to cheer. Almost everyone reacted after a second of cold!

Immediately afterwards, huge cheers followed one after another!

When Kevin Durant saw that the referee's gesture was two-point effective, his annoyed expression could not even be described in words!

39:46! His defense this time not only did not help the Oklahoma City Thunder, but it also gave the Cleveland Cavaliers the opportunity to expand their lead!

The score difference once again reached 7 points, and at the same time, Wu Dawei will have a chance to make a free throw! After this free throw, as long as you make a shot, the Cleveland Cavaliers can expand the advantage in score to 8 points!

Obviously, this will be a huge blow to the Oklahoma City Thunder! While desperately chasing for almost half a quarter of the game, the Oklahoma City Thunder was always unable to catch up with the score, it is very likely that the score difference between the Cleveland Cavaliers will continue to be widened at this time.

This is of course something that makes the Oklahoma City Thunder, who vows to win the game before this game, feels very unacceptable! Especially Kevin Durant, at this moment, he only feels that his previous behavior is so stupid! (To be continued, please search for Astronomy, the novel is better, updated and faster!
