Cleveland Cavaliers head coach Byron Scott, standing on the sidelines, staring anxiously at the fierce competition between the two teams on the basketball court. His anxiety was much more anxious than what he showed on the surface at this time.
Because the two teams on the basketball court were unable to decide a winner, both sides still fought to the death on the basketball court.
At this time, there was little left for this game tonight. Under such circumstances, both sides still could not decide the outcome of this game.
Whether it is the Cleveland Cavaliers who play at home or the Miami Heat who play away, it is a very difficult thing.
Byron Scott can be sure that Pat Riley, like himself, hopes that the game will be decided as soon as possible. Of course, as the head coach of the Miami Heat, he definitely hopes that the Miami Heat can win, but at this time, it is obvious that the situation faced by the Miami Heat, who are playing away, is much more difficult than the Cleveland Cavaliers.
Because they are still the one behind the basketball court, naturally, the Cleveland Cavaliers are definitely more promising than the Miami Heat when they win.
After all, they are the leading side. Although the Cleveland Cavaliers did not have much advantage at this time, they were still enough to hold some weak initiative on the basketball court.
They firmly controlled such an initiative, which made the Miami people feel extremely annoyed at this time. Because of this, the Miami Heat were unable to catch up with the score.
This is the main reason why the Miami people are passive, and as the fourth quarter game approaches the end, the leading position the Cleveland Cavaliers occupy at this time will give them a greater advantage.
This is not something Miami people are willing to see, but at this moment, as the game time fades, they have to watch such a situation happening.
This made LeBron James feel very uncomfortable. Before coming to Cleveland, he and his team had a 2:0 lead. But now, it seems that when they return to Miami, the total score is likely to become 2:2...
This will definitely become a number that makes Miami people feel heartbroken. LeBron James will also feel very unacceptable to this.
Because when he came to Cleveland, he was still very confident. In his opinion, his team should have been at least the worst and was able to leave Cleveland with a total score of 3:1.
But from the moment, it is obviously less like a possible thing...
Because in this game tonight, the Miami Heat didn't have much time to gain the upper hand. Especially in the fourth quarter, they had a whole quarter without a second, overtaking their opponent, the Cleveland Cavaliers.
Wu Dawei's performance in the fourth quarter made LeBron James feel extremely annoyed. Because on the defensive end, LeBron James has always been proud of his defense but he couldn't defend Wu Dawei's request for their baskets no matter what.
At this time, it had been 10 minutes in the fourth quarter game, and Wu Dawei had already scored 42 points in this game tonight. He had scored 12 points in the entire fourth quarter game. More importantly, in addition, his current assists have reached 9 times!
The Miami Heat originally used LeBron James to defend Wu Dawei alone, but after seeing that LeBron James' single defense was not effective, and Wu Dawei often played high pick-and-rolls with Dwight Howard, which led to the Miami Heat's defensive formation being often confused.
So Pat Riley decided to use a pinch-hitting strategy against Wu Dawei, just like when they were dealing with Dwight Howard. However, when he hit Wu Dawei, Wu Dawei was always able to use his excellent passing skills to allocate the ball to the hands of his teammates in the open space.
What's even more deadly for the Miami people is that after Wu Dawei passed the ball, the outside shooters of the Cleveland Cavaliers were always able to throw the ball into the basket tonight.
If the Miami Heat were not as good as the offensive end tonight, then they might have been defeated by the Cleveland Cavaliers who played at home as they did in the last game!
It is precisely because of their own good offense that the Cleveland Cavaliers were unable to widen the gap in the score at this time. However, compared with the Miami Heat, the Cleveland Cavaliers have indeed gained an advantage at this time.
100:104. The Cleveland Cavaliers firmly control the advantage of these four points. Although such an advantage does not seem to be big, the Miami people always find it difficult to narrow or regain the gap in the score at this time.
Now, as the game time fades, the Cleveland Cavaliers' leading advantage will become more and more obvious at this time.
After all, the 4-point gap is in an offensive round, and there is only theoretical hope of recovering it. It is not easy to go 3+1 on the outside line at a time.
In this season's playoffs, the number of 3+1 is only a handful. So as the game time decreases, the Miami people will obviously start to gradually become more anxious.
Pat Riley asked the team for timeouts at this time, and he tried to improve such a backward situation by rearranging tactics and lineups.
But it is obviously not an easy task.
Because the Clevelanders must be prepared, they will not just let the Miami people catch up with the score gap so easily at this time.
After all, this is their hard-earned lead, how could they give in at this time?
What's more, Wu Dawei's performance in this game tonight was so outstanding. His offensive performance always supported the Cleveland Cavaliers to maintain the lead in this game tonight.
Moreover, they were almost ahead of the entire game, so it was naturally even more impossible to give up the lead in this game easily at this moment.
Although the Miami people's performance in this game tonight was also far better than the previous game. However, even so, the Cleveland Cavaliers still control the advantage, so since they have almost led the entire game, they naturally don't like the feeling of losing their chains at the last moment.
So although Miami Heat head coach Pat Riley was approaching the end of the game, he kept asking for a pause to try to break this situation. However, it was obviously not an easy task.
The Cleveland Cavaliers' resentment about this game must be much greater than that of the Miami Heat. After all, the Cleveland Cavaliers are currently behind in the series, and losing this game will force them into a desperate situation.
So even if the Miami Heat still wants to win this game, they still have to fall into a disadvantage compared to the Cleveland Cavaliers who can be said to have the right time, place and people at this time.
After all, they have not been forced into a desperate situation yet, so no matter what, they are certainly not as firm as the Cleveland Cavaliers in terms of physical and mentality.
For this game, even if the Cleveland Cavaliers are ready to die, it is OK. As the current leading side, the Miami Heat obviously cannot fight the Cleveland Cavaliers to fight the Cleveland Cavaliers in this game.
At this point alone, they are a little weaker! Moreover, the Cleveland Cavaliers are playing at home, and more people still believe that they are also a slightly weaker side in terms of strength...
Of course, this is of course a very critical and important thing for the Miami Heat. Even though they find it difficult to gain the upper hand in this game tonight, they still fought for 46 minutes. At this time, of course there is no reason for them to give up this game.
What's more, although the 4-point gap is indeed impossible to catch up within one round, it is not enough to say that the Miami Heat, who plays away, has no hope of winning the game at all.
After all, 4 points are not 40 points. Although the game time is a little less, who will know what will happen within two minutes?
So at this time, even if the Miami Heat is at a disadvantage, the Miami people will definitely not give up the victory of this game so easily.
Whether it is LeBron James or Pat Riley, it is absolutely impossible for the Cleveland Cavaliers to easily turn the total score into a 2:2 draw!
You must know that they finally established such a leading advantage!
Especially LeBron James, he knew that if he and his team lost two consecutive games at the Speed Loan Center, he would definitely be ridiculed by the Clevelanders!
This is all caused by a big mouth!
