The Cleveland Cavaliers did not choose to continue handing over the ball to Wu Dawei in the next attack, which is an opportunity for the Oklahoma City Thunder. Although they have always been unable to limit Wu Dawei's performance in this game tonight, the inability to limit Wu Dawei's performance does not mean that they cannot limit the performance of other Cleveland players on the offensive end.

So of course they hope to seize such an opportunity to defend the Cleveland Cavaliers' offense, so they can continue to have the opportunity to narrow the gap in the score between the two sides.

Dwight Howard is the attack point of the Cleveland Cavaliers on the offensive end this time. Kyrie Irving is not greedy for the ball. After he did not find a good attack opportunity after halftime, he handed the ball to Dwight Howard, who had already stuck the position in the inside.

Howard faces Kendrick Perkins, although the two are not at the same level in terms of personal abilities, there is no possibility of comparing popularity. However, the grudges between the two have been around for a long time. When Kendrick Perkins was still a player of the Boston Celtics and Dwight Howard was still the core of the Orlando Magic, the two had already collided in the playoffs repeatedly.

Although Kendrick Perkins was criticized and criticized by the outside world for most of this season, before the start of this game, those who had hysterically criticized Kendrick Perkins changed their previous tone.

Kendrick Perkins, who thinks it is "useless", will be a key point in whether the Oklahoma City Thunder can win this game tonight. The reason is that Kendrick Perkins faces Dwight Howard, and judging from the past matchup records of the two people, although Kendrick Perkins is completely at a disadvantage, Dwight Howard always plays a data far below his average level whenever he faces his defense!

In the finals of last season, Dwight Howard's performance was not particularly satisfactory. It was someone who watched last year's finals that the only reason why the Cleveland Cavaliers were able to defeat the Oklahoma City Thunder with a big score of 4:1 was because of Wu Dawei's rampage!

Just imagine even the first five-double data in league history, the Oklahoma City Thunder encountered it. It is no longer difficult to describe that series they want to win!

In the first half of this game tonight, Dwight Howard performed well. At the end of the first half, Dwight Howard scored 10 points and 8 rebounds on 4 of 7 shots at the basket, which was obviously higher than his average level this season.

However, the first half was the first half. After the second half began, this was Dwight Howard's first attack with Kendrick Perkins under the defense.

Obviously, he didn't feel good this time. Under Kendrick Perkins' top defense, Dwight Howard's idea of ​​squeezing into the inside was not realized. In the end, he chose to complete a small hook attack after turning around on the sideline of the paint area.

Dwight Howard was not confident about this, so when the ball was thrown into the basket by him, he did not get into the basket cleanly. Instead, he slid out after shaking the basket rings!

It was simply a trajectory that made people unable to complain. The ball did not enter the basket and made the Cleveland fans lament. The rebound was not brought to the arms of Dwight Howard. Kendrick Perkins resisted Dwight Howard and Serge Ibaka could easily catch the rebound at this time.

In fact, this is one of the reasons why Kendrick Perkins' data is so ugly. His awareness of card position in the paint area is very good. In this way, as his inside partner, Sergi Ibaka will look extremely relaxed when grabbing rebounds!

When Serge Ibaka grabbed the rebound, Kevin Durant, who was on the outside, was originally defending Wu Dawei, also had a bright eye because it allowed him to continue chasing the score. So he rushed up without hesitation to pass the ball. Seeing this, Russell Westbrook did not go to grab the ball with Kevin Durant.

Kevin Durant took the initiative to run over to catch the ball, and Wu Dawei saw it all. However, he did not go up and press to defend him, because at this time Wu Dawei could see that Kevin Durant seemed very excited.

Obviously, he wanted to use his offense to narrow the gap between the two sides. Judging from the provocations that Kevin Durant frequently made to himself in the first half of the game, it is obvious that whether he can win this game is crucial to him.

He must have wanted to win, and after the Cleveland Cavaliers led by 10 points in the second half, the Oklahoma counterattack was about to begin. So Wu Dawei knew that he needed to calm down even more at this time, because the opponent was already a little crazy, and he could not follow Kevin Durant and others to take the lead!

So at this time, Wu Dawei ran back to the half, standing at the three-point line waiting for Kevin Durant's next attack. Kevin Durant was indeed a little bit over the top at this time, but in his opinion, he was just excited.

After dribbling alone for halftime, Kevin Durant had no intention of passing the ball. Obviously, he wanted to do one by himself! At this time, it was obvious that the person the superstars were more willing to believe was themselves, not others.

The Cleveland fans on the sidelines were also staring at Wu Dawei and Kevin Durant who held the ball in front of him. Because the team did not score before, if the Oklahoma City Thunder continues to score this offense, the Cleveland Cavaliers' lead will be reduced to 6 points or even within 6 points!

So the Cleveland fans on the sidelines were also very nervous about this offense. Of course, everyone would not want to see the Oklahoma City Thunder continue to catch up with the score.

After all, at the beginning of the second half, the Cleveland Cavaliers were the first to score. They even widened the gap between the two sides to 10 points for a while. No one would hope that this was just a flash in the pan.

Kevin Durant did not stay for long after halftime dribbling. He observed the situation on the basketball court. It seemed that his teammates in the Oklahoma City Thunder knew him well, so he had already opened up space for singles for him at this time.

He wants to play Wu Dawei with the ball from a high position. Although Kevin Durant has already scored a lot of points against Wu Dawei's defense in this game tonight, in most cases he relies on jump shots after pick-and-roll.

Few people have completed the attacks and scores of the basket in a one-on-one match with Wu Dawei. This time, it is obvious that Kevin Durant has no hope of getting help from his teammates.

He held the ball at a high position, and then acted like shaking his shoulders and was about to move to the left to disguise, and directly led the way to the right!

Although Kevin Durant's series of movements were very smooth and sudden, Wu Dawei did not shake. He started to move directly to his left, trying to stop Kevin Durant's cutting inward with the ball.

Although Wu Dawei "judged" the right direction, this could not stop Kevin Durant from attacking. He continued to hold the ball and forcibly break through the inside. He leaned on Wu Dawei's body, trying to use his body to block Wu Dawei's "savage hands" and prevent Wu Dawei from destroying the ball in his hand.

The moment when Kevin Durant's body leaned up, Wu Dawei naturally had difficulty harassing the ball in his hand. However, the ball in Kevin Durant's hand could not make Wu Dawei feel desperate.

Compared to him, he is not only good at intercepting the ball. As the league's steal king and blocking king in the past two seasons, the reason why Wu Dawei is so terrifying on the defensive end is that he can almost use various ways to hit his opponent's confidence.

Moreover, Kevin Durant is not uncommoned by Wu Dawei. Although he is much better than Wu Dawei in terms of height and wingspan, he has taken a lot of hits!

But it was obvious that Kevin Durant was much more prepared this time than before. After slowly gaining the advantage of the attacker when cutting in, Kevin Durant relied on his big step to lead Wu Dawei by almost half the position after breaking forward, and jumped up!

And when he jumped up, Kevin Durant stretched out his long arm, leaving Wu Dawei completely without the blocking shot, because he could not reach such a ball at this time...

Kevin Durant finally ended the attack with a basket before Dwight Howard made up for defense! Although after landing, Wu Dawei was squeezed out of the baseline and fell to the ground due to the gap in tonnage, Kevin Durant still seemed very excited!

and-one!

When the ball fell into the net and Kevin Durant also fell to the bottom line, Kevin Durant shouted at the referee. Of course, he thought it was a foul, but the referee obviously did not pay attention to him at this time. He just stood up and ran towards the frontcourt.

Because when Kevin Durant completed the goal, although the Cleveland fans on the sidelines were sighing loudly, the Cleveland Cavaliers players on the field had already completed the serve.

Wu Dawei was not upset that he could not defend Kevin Durant at this time. After taking over his teammate's baseline serve, Wu Dawei quickly ran towards the frontcourt!

Seeing this, Kevin Durant, who had originally fallen to the ground, suddenly remembered the bad memories he had before, so he immediately climbed up from the floor and ran back desperately!

He tried to catch up with Wu Dawei who had defended himself before, and after receiving a teammate's baseline serve, Wu Dawei obviously couldn't wait for him. He passed the half, while Kevin Durant was still chasing him.

The other players of the Oklahoma City Thunder also wanted to complete the siege of Wu Dawei at this time, but Wu Dawei obviously would not give up the attack like this. The reason why he didn't have time to upset his defensive defense of Kevin Durant was just because Wu Dawei wanted to use the next attack to rebuild the Cleveland Cavaliers' lead!

So after he held the ball, he immediately ran towards the frontcourt, and he soon arrived in front of the three-point line of the Oklahoma City Thunder, Sergi Ibaka was the one who made the most active defense at this time.

Because his resentment towards Wu Dawei is not much weaker than Kevin Durant. So when he faces Wu Dawei at this time, he also seemed extremely excited.

However, Wu Dawei would not be entangled with him, because when he dribbled to the front of the three-point line, Michael Beasley also made a high pick-and-roll for him at this time. Before Sergi Ibaka could match Wu Dawei, he was blocked by Michael Beasley!

After Wu Dawei relied on Michael Beasley's pick-and-roll to get rid of Sergi Ibaka, who was making up for defense, he naturally faced the Oklahoma City Thunder again!

Kendrick Perkins had not had time to return to defense at this time, and although Russell Westbrook had rushed over from the wing, Wu Dawei was not afraid of him at all!

Wu Dawei rushed into the paint area with the ball, and then jumped up without hesitation to try to complete the attack with a flying wing. Of course, Westbrook would not have allowed Wu Dawei to do so easily.

So he also rushed up at this time. His fierce expression made him scared, but it did not help the Oklahoma City Thunder's defense this time!

Because there was a bang in the paint area, the sound of dunks echoed over the entire Speed ​​Loan Center's stadium at this moment! It was also at this moment that the fans of Cleveland who were still sighing before turned into a hysterical carnival!
Chapter completed!
