128. Overwhelming advantages
The Cavaliers took the lead at the opening game, and it seemed that they performed very well on both sides of the offense and defense, which surprised many people.
Just like Wu Dawei's block after falling to the ground, it was unexpected and also made people feel a little shocked.
In that case, the opponent's attack can still be stopped. In the past, any news about Wu Dawei was through the media, the Internet and the newspaper. They had never seen Wu Dawei's performance on the court with their own eyes.
Tonight was the first time, but this first time was enough to shock them.
For a moment, the Nuggets got the ball back at the Pepsi Center, which was a bit speechless. They continued to attack, and Cameron Anthony obviously came back from the previous shock, just like these Denver fans.
Because he was not even as energetic as he did in the last round of attack, he looked at Wu Dawei with a little incredible look. He had clearly shook the Chinese in front of him just now, why could he still cover up his own attack?
Anthony was still surprised, and suddenly found that Wu Dawei, who was following him closely, turned around and rushed towards the inside! The next second, what he heard was Nene Hilario's remorse and scolding: "Damn it!"
The attack formed by Wu Dawei and Valaijo in an instant caught Nene Hilario, who had just obtained a high lob from Billups, off guard. He did not respond at all, and just saw Wu Dawei pulling the ball from his arms and snatching it away!
Wu Dawei launched a fast attack! Before everyone could react, he was like a sensitive elk, tearing apart the leopards' encirclement and leaving!
The Nuggets players even just turned around and saw that Wu Dawei had already broken through the siege. Chauncey Billups, the closest to him, was already old. Soon he fell behind Wu Dawei, and the distance between the two became larger and larger. Slowly, they could only watch Wu Dawei jump up in their own half.
His powerless frustration expression was like the lamenting voices of Denver fans in Pepsi Center at this time, which were reluctantly written on everyone's face, because of a beautiful one-arm buckle, turned the score into 6:0.
This is an beginning that no one has guessed. Even though the Cleveland Cavaliers have defeated unexpected opponents in recent times, people do not think that the beginning of this game will be a one-sided situation.
Nuggets coach George Carl is the one who has never thought about it. Before the game, he really attached great importance to Wu Dawei's defense. It is now mid-December. Since Wu Dawei started the new season in late October, a series of eye-catching performances have long been spread throughout the basketball world.
George Carl is not a fool, a player who currently ranks first in the league's steals and blocks list. Even if he doesn't watch the game, George Carl also knows how powerful Wu Dawei will have on the defensive end.
If you value it, he cannot set up tactics against Wu Dawei like he targets the super scorers in the opponent's lineup. Because he is an excellent defender, you cannot predict his behavior, and his defense moves with the attacker.
Therefore, Carl could only remind his teammates to be careful of Wu Dawei's steals and assist in defense on the offensive end. Fortunately, the team had fought with the Cavaliers this season, which made Carl feel that the most important players would be more familiar with Wu Dawei than other teams.
This should make teammates very careful with him and at the same time effectively reduce the obstacles the team faces on the offensive end.
However, as soon as the game started, George Carl found that the process was completely off track!
Wu Dawei's performance on the defensive end is just like Kobe Bryant on the offensive end. He takes it. This is why the Cavaliers were able to play the home game with high morale Nuggets at the beginning.
The game continued, and Carl did not request a timeout. But he still shouted on the sidelines, looking a little scratching his head.
Billups heard the old coach's shouting on the sidelines. Carl had not directed the game like this for a long time. Because injuries gave him many restrictions, and now, his shouting to break through the restrictions was obviously because he was really anxious.
So Billups knew that at this time, he had to stabilize his morale.
Then Billups came to the frontcourt, and the moment he advanced to the three-point line, he suddenly closed the ball and jumped up!
An unexpected cold arrow from the outside!
Williams didn't react at all, and the sound of basketballs passing through the net sounded behind him!
6:3.
This unexpected projection was like Wu Dawei's previous steal, but this time, there was a boiling cheer in the center of Pepsi!
Billups' three-pointer broke the deadlock for the home team. But the Cavaliers quickly sent the baseline ball, and the Clevelanders rushed over. Billups' unexpected shot surprised the Cavaliers players, but it was not enough to make them lose their position.
Besides, they are still the leaders at this time.
Williams took the ball after halftime and handed it to Anthony Parker. Parker has never been a good player to hold the ball, so almost the moment he received the ball, he passed it directly to Antoine Jamison who was standing in the left corner.
Facing Sheldon Williams, who was much stronger than himself, Antoine Jamison tested the other party's virtuality and reality a few times, and signaled Wu Dawei to come up and help him make a pick-and-roll.
The two men playing pick-and-roll on the sideline is not the main offensive tactics of the Cleveland Cavaliers. Scott didn't even make special arrangements for this, but this is not the first time they cooperated to carry out pick-and-roll outside the three-point line on the sideline.
Because of the small number of games, the opponent does not know much about the pick-and-roll of Wu Dawei and Jamison on the sideline.
Although Sheldon Williams was so strong, his movement speed slowed down accordingly. Wu Dawei's pick-and-roll caught him off guard, and Jamison had already dribbled the ball and ran up the line from him.
Just a simple pick-and-roll, Jamison got rid of Sheldon Williams' defense. As a last resort, Cameron Anthony hurriedly followed up. At the same time, Sheldon Williams had no sense of changing defense at all, and he still chased behind Jamison. At this time, Wu Dawei roamed directly to the downline, and Jamison's ball also passed back at the same time!
With a wonderful pick-and-roll cooperation, Wu Dawei got the ball near the middle distance. Valaijo stuck Nene who was inside, so when Wu Dawei jumped up, Anthony no longer had the desire to return to defense.
An open shot!
The basketball flew out of his palm and entered the net with a swish! Although Wu Dawei was not a strong offensive player, his ability to seize the opportunity was still fully demonstrated when facing an open space!
Denver fans were still savoring Billups' sudden cold arrow before, and in a blink of an eye, they found that the score had become 8:3!
They looked at the situation on the court and scored again. It seemed that he was about to beat Cameron Anthony tonight.
At least it looks like this now. In just two minutes of the game, Wu Dawei had scored 4 points, 1 block and 1 steal. The Denver man's treasure, Cameron Anthony, his data was a dismal shot and zero.
And this is still thanks to Wu Dawei!
