Although the Brooklyn Nets narrowed the score gap at the beginning of the second half, the Cleveland Cavaliers did not give them the opportunity to continue to narrow the score gap.

After the two sides fought a tug-of-war, the score gap was always around 11 points. For the Brooklyn Nets, this will certainly make them feel anxious, although if they want to regain the current situation in the second half, they must become more patient.

This has also increased their requirements accordingly. After all, as a backward side, Brooklyn Nets players will definitely feel anxious in their hearts, so the tug-of-war is not a good thing for them.

However, the tug-of-war proves from the side that the Brooklyn Nets were obviously better in the second half than in the first half, because at least they did not gradually widen the score gap between the two sides like they did in the first half, which is a little better than before.

Now, what the Brooklyn Nets lack is an opportunity to play high-chaos like the ones that were just at the beginning of the second quarter. As long as they can play high-chaos at this time, the Brooklyn Nets will have a good chance to reverse the situation of the entire game.

So for the Brooklyn Nets players, although they are indeed very anxious now, they still have to calm down and wait for such an opportunity to come.

As long as they can seize an opportunity in the second half of the game, the Brooklyn Nets are very likely to reverse the situation of the entire game at this time.

Of course, this is the result the Brooklyn Nets wanted to get during the break. But now, although they are anxious, they still have to calm down and wait for the opportunity to come.

As for the current situation, as the leading side, the Cleveland Cavaliers naturally would not feel as anxious as the Brooklyn Nets. But of course they would not really hope to see the current situation. Although the Cleveland Cavaliers, who played at home, were still ahead of the Brooklyn Nets who played away in such a situation, the situation was extremely anxious since the beginning of the second half.

This is not what the Brooklyn Nets want to see, but it is not what the Cleveland Cavaliers want to see. After all, they have already established a 12-point lead in the first half of the game, so in the second half, they of course hope to expand the score as soon as possible in the second half of the game and end the game.

Successfully winning the good start of the playoffs this season is of course the most important thing for the Cleveland Cavaliers. They did not get a good start in the regular season of this season. Of course, they would hope to get a good start in the playoffs.

And the current situation obviously won't end so quickly and smoothly. The Brooklyn Nets are obviously still looking forward to this game today while lagging behind.

So they are still trying their best to win the game. Although they have never narrowed the score gap further, they are still putting pressure on the Cleveland Cavaliers. Such pressure also makes the Cleveland Cavaliers players dare not take it lightly at all.

Because the Brooklyn Nets followed so closely, it is easy to make people feel that they will be immediately caught up by the opponent once they relax. The Brooklyn Nets are indeed chasing very tightly at this time. The only hope that the Brooklyns can still catch up with the leading Cleveland Cavaliers is that they can complete a comeback in the second half of the game.

Such a situation obviously made Charles Barkley, who thought the Cleveland Cavaliers would undoubtedly win this game during the half-time break.

Obviously, in his opinion, the Brooklyn Nets' performance in the second half was stronger than he expected. He thought that at the end of the first half, the Cleveland Cavaliers, which had been 12 points ahead of the Brooklyn Nets, should quickly expand such a leading advantage in the second half, and then quickly make this game lose its suspense and meaning.

But it is obviously not the case now. Although the Brooklyn Nets have reduced the score from 12 points to 11 points, they are powerless to narrow the score further. However, they always pose a threat to the Cleveland Cavaliers catching up behind them.

This is something Charles Barkley didn't expect, and now it seems to him, obviously because he underestimated the Brooklyn Nets' desire for victory in this game.

Although they are the side with the disadvantage of this game in all aspects, it is obvious that the Brooklyn Nets also hope to be the side with the victory in this game.

Although most people are not optimistic about them, the more they want to win this game. This is also normal. After all, everyone hopes to win the first game of the playoffs.

Even if the Brooklyn Nets are both subjective and objective, they are more disadvantaged, as long as there is still a glimmer of hope, the Brooklyns will not be able to give up the victory of this game to the Cleveland Cavaliers.

So for the Cleveland Cavaliers, although they still firmly took the initiative on the basketball court in the second half of the game, they were actually unable to feel at ease.

From the beginning of the second half, the Cleveland Cavaliers were unable to get rid of the Brooklyn Nets' tail, which made them feel very distressed. Because during the half-time break, the team's head coach Byron Scott hoped that the team could take advantage of such a good situation in the first half to quickly establish a greater lead in the second half, and then let the game come to an end without any suspense.

But now it is obvious that the situation is not the same as what Byron Scott had imagined during the halftime break. Although they still maintained the double-digit score advantage, such an advantage could never make them feel at ease at this time.

Because the Brooklyn Nets are always following them, and although the Cleveland Cavaliers are still able to maintain a double-digit lead at this time, they are still unable to continue to pull away.

This is a very annoying thing, especially for the Cleveland Cavaliers players. However, the only one who was suffering at home was not just the Cleveland Cavaliers players, but the Brooklyn Nets players were not smaller than the Cleveland Cavaliers players.

After all, no matter what, they are the ones behind now, and they are unable to close the score for a long time. Moreover, in the second half of the game, their patience is being wiped out bit by bit.

As long as the Cleveland Cavaliers players can always adhere to the current leading advantage, the Brooklyn Nets will sooner or later be the first to worry about.

After all, time does not wait for anyone, and if the Brooklyn Nets can never get closer, they will be able to wait for a failed result in the end. So although the Cleveland Cavaliers are actually suffering now, the problem is that they still take the initiative.

So if the Cleveland Cavaliers are unable to completely widen the score gap for the time being, then what they have to do now is to stabilize the situation on the basketball court first. Since it cannot end this game quickly as expected during the halftime break, the best choice for the Cleveland Cavaliers is to maintain the status quo and spend the next two quarters smoothly.

For them, it is obviously not too difficult. Because they did play an offensive battle with the Brooklyn Nets in the second half. While they were unable to defend the Brooklyn Nets' offense, the Brooklyns were even more helpless in their offensive!

Otherwise, judging by the Brooklyn Nets' desire to win today's game, they would have been eager to catch up with the score. Before this game began, the Brooklyns who came to Cleveland had already had enough of the arrogant look of the Cleveland media. They had enough of such anger, so of course they would not want to see the Cleveland Cavaliers always lead the way.

So if it were possible that they would have surpassed the score at this time, and they would never have been able to watch the Cleveland Cavaliers be so "showing off". But obviously the problem now is that the Brooklyn Nets cannot get the score closer. They want to wait for the Cleveland Cavaliers to make a mistake, but it seems that it doesn't work now.

The third quarter game has been played for half of the time, but the Cleveland Cavaliers are still controlling the game situation as steady as Mount Tai!
