731.

After the ball rights returned to the Cleveland Cavaliers, Kyrie Irving quickly dribbled the ball through halftime and handed the ball to Wu Dawei again.

Although his ball-holding rate this season has increased significantly compared to previous years, usually at the beginning of the game, Kyrie and Irving will hand it over to Wu Dawei first, so that he can open up the situation for the team first.

This is something that happens frequently in the 21 games after the start of the new season.

In this game tonight, it is obvious that the Cleveland Cavaliers are going to do this. When Kyrie Irving handed the ball to Wu Dawei again after halftime, all the Oklahoma City Thunder fans all raised their hearts to their throats!

Because Wu Dawei's performance in the previous offense was still vivid in the minds of the Oklahoma City Thunder fans.

So when I saw Wu Dawei holding the ball again, the Oklahoma City Thunder fans couldn't help but feel trembling.

Because they are not sure that their team will be able to defend Wu Dawei's performance during this offense.

After all, in the previous matchup, Wu Dawei could be said to have used his skills to completely play with Kevin Durant. No one can be sure that Kevin Durant can pose a threat to Wu Dawei in this defense.

What people didn't expect was that when Wu Dawei received the pass from Kyrie Irving again, he did not choose to continue attacking the basket, but moved to the wing and then chose to hand the ball to Dwight Howard.

Howard had already blocked the position at the low post at this time. He opened his hand to ask Wu Dawei for the ball, and Wu Dawei chose to hand over the ball to him without much hesitation.

Dwight Howard stuck in the inside line, although Kendrick Perkins stood behind him at this time. However, when Howard received the ball, he turned around and then hooked his hand to send the ball into the basket!

5:2, the Cleveland Cavaliers' offensive performance continued to be fully demonstrated. For the Cleveland Cavaliers, they obviously continued their good form in the previous game.

In this way, they regained a three-point lead.

The Oklahoman found that they were not only unable to defend Wu Dawei's attack at the beginning, but also did not impose any effective restrictions on Dwight Howard in the paint area.

Both of them scored points in a relatively relaxed manner at the beginning of this game. In this way, the situation is of course relatively unfavorable for the Oklahoma City Thunder.

After all, Wu Dawei and Dwight Howard are both core players of the Cleveland Cavaliers. If both of them perform well in a game, it would be easier for the Cleveland Cavaliers to win the game.

So such a signal is definitely not a good signal for the Cleveland Cavaliers' opponent in this game tonight. The Oklahoma City Thunder.

They wouldn't want to see the Cleveland Cavaliers team be in full swing in this game tonight.

Because in that case, the chances of the Oklahoma City Thunder want to win the game will be greatly reduced, and this is definitely not what the Oklahoman wants to see.

After all, for them, they really want to win the game. But if Wu Dawei and Dwight Howard performed so well in this game, it would be a very difficult thing for the Oklahoma City Thunder.

However, at this time, although the Oklahoma City Thunder could not limit Wu Dawei and Dwight Howard's performance, if they want to win this game tonight, they must first do their own things.

That is to play an excellent offense. After all, basketball is a sport that compares who scores more and who scores less.

So after Dwight Howard finished the goal, the first thing the Oklahoma City Thunder had to worry about was their own performance on the offensive end.

Fortunately, in the game, the Oklahoma City Thunder does not need to worry too much about this, because there are two scoring experts in their lineup.

Kevin Durant and Russell Westbrook.

The existence of these two people ensures that it is difficult for the Oklahoma City Thunder to be silent in the game, so on the offensive end, the Oklahomans actually never need to worry too much.

Even tonight, their opponents on the offensive end were Wu Dawei and Dwight Howard from the Cleveland Cavaliers.

But in terms of offense, the Oklahomans are the best at it. They have no fear at all, especially Russell Westbrook.

He was like a fearless young man, even though he was taught a lesson by Wu Dawei with a blockade during the first attack at the opening.

But this did not stop Russell Westbrook from attacking**. After the Oklahoma City Thunder regained the ball, Russell Westbrook ran through the half again.

His speed was extremely fast, and his rush was as unstoppable as lightning. He rushed into the paint area in an instant, and then he beat the Cleveland Cavaliers to a foothold without a firm foothold!

Such a situation somewhat caught the Cleveland Cavaliers off guard. They were unable to prevent Russell Westbrook from putting the ball into the basket during this defense.

Although Wu Dawei had tried his best to make up for the past like the last time, he was still a little slower.

The score became 5:4, but the Cleveland Cavaliers are still the leading side, which is still very important.

At least this allows them to maintain their lead on the basketball court while playing away. They have the initiative and can save them from many disadvantages on the away game.

After all, in this game tonight, the Cleveland Cavaliers not only have to face the 12 players on and off the Oklahoma Thunder, but also have to face the 20,000 Oklahoma fans who came to the Ford Center to cheer for the Oklahoma Thunder tonight.

So the Cleveland Cavaliers naturally won't easily give up such a leading advantage to the Oklahoma City Thunder, who plays at home.

Although Kevin Durant and Russell Westbrook helped the Oklahoma City Thunder to tightly grasp the score at the beginning of the game.

However, the Cleveland Cavaliers still grabbed their very weak lead. The ball returned to the Cleveland Cavaliers to command, and they continued to score.

Even though the Oklahomas were on guard against them, this did not prevent the Cleveland Cavaliers from continuing to score points on the away game.

They always maintain a leading edge away, which is obviously something that the Oklahoma City Thunder cannot stop, and it is precisely because the Oklahoma people cannot stop the Cleveland Cavaliers' scoring that they must face the embarrassing situation that they are always behind and disadvantaged.

After all, before this game begins, for the Oklahoma City Thunder, they naturally hope to transform their disadvantages into advantages as quickly as possible.

But obviously this is difficult to achieve at present, because the Cleveland Cavaliers' state in this game tonight is obviously extremely outstanding.

Especially Wu Dawei's performance in the game, as the core always made Oklahoma fans feel very anxious.

Because Wu Dawei not only performed well on the offensive end, but also often made Kevin Durant feel helpless in the confrontation with Kevin Durant on the defensive end.

Although Kevin Durant is a few centimeters taller than Wu Dawei, after all, he cannot use shooting methods far away from the basket every time he attacks.

Even if Wu Dawei is difficult to block his projection, Wu Dawei will always interfere with Kevin Durant's move, so that the latter will not be able to fully maintain the hit rate.

When Kevin Durant faced Wu Dawei's offense on the defensive end, he could not play as good as Wu Dawei's defense.

This kind of gap between them is naturally an important reason for the current situation. So when there is a slight gap between the core players of the two teams in this game, it will naturally cause the gap between the two teams in this game tonight.

In this way, the Cleveland Cavaliers quickly established some lead in this game.

15:10. After halfway through the first quarter, the Cleveland Cavaliers who played away were 5 points ahead of the Oklahoma City Thunder who played home.

This is not a score with a particularly huge difference, but at this time it is enough to give the Oklahoman a head-on blow before the start of this game.

Let them know that it is not that easy to defeat the Cleveland Cavaliers, who had already won 21 games in this game tonight.

Even if they are on the side of the home field, the situation is not optimistic!

However, the advantage of 5 points is not very stable for the Cleveland Cavaliers, because the Oklahoma City Thunder, led by Russell Westbrook, continued to attack the Cleveland Cavaliers.

This is also something that will make the evil Cleveland Cavaliers feel worried, so they naturally will not just expect the score difference to be only 5 points. They hope to continue to expand the score gap as much as possible.

After all, Wu Dawei and Dwight Howard showed a good state from the beginning in this game.

It is precisely because the two of them performed well at the beginning of the game that the Cleveland Cavaliers naturally hope to end the battle as quickly as possible, just like the previous twenty games.

But obviously this game tonight is somewhat similar to the last Golden State Warriors game of the Cleveland Cavaliers.

Although the Cleveland Cavaliers had a lead from the start of the game, it didn't help them win the next game immediately.

The Oklahoman desperately chased behind him to stop the Clevelanders' fantasies, especially Russell Westbrook. He seemed to have endless energy, and always made the Cleveland Cavaliers unable to widen the gap in the score well to a point where the lagging side felt desperate.

Although the Cleveland Cavaliers are always leading, in the first quarter, both sides are always in a situation of going back and forth.

As a result, the situation of the game naturally became anxious. The Cleveland Cavaliers were unable to widen the score gap well, and the behind Oklahoma City Thunder was also unable to close the score gap.

The gap between scores is just around 4 to 5 points. No matter whether it is on either side, it is difficult to break such a gap.

The first quarter game ended quickly under such a situation. Although the Cleveland Cavaliers were away, they led the Oklahoma City Thunder at the end of the first quarter with 27:23.

Although such a leading advantage is not enough to guarantee them a winning streak in the 22nd game, it is enough to give them the confidence to win the game in such a game situation.

After all, the leading 4 points is enough to ensure that at least for the moment, the Cleveland Cavaliers who play away are closer to victory than the Oklahomans who play home.

Wu Dawei played for 10 minutes in the first quarter, and in these 10 minutes, Wu Dawei's performance was the best in the game.

The performance of 9 points, 3 blocks and 2 assists is the key reason why the Cleveland Cavaliers were able to lead the Oklahoma City Thunder in the first quarter.

Without such outstanding performance as Wu Dawei, the Cleveland Cavaliers would not have been ahead of the Oklahoma City Thunder, who was also in excellent form since the start of the game.

After all, Kevin Durant and Russell Westbrook joined forces to contribute 20 points to the Oklahoma City Thunder in the first quarter!

So for the Cleveland Cavaliers, Wu Dawei's performance as the core is naturally very critical. Without Wu Dawei's performance, it would be extremely difficult for the Cleveland Cavaliers to gain even a slight advantage on the road.

In addition to Wu Dawei's outstanding performance in the first quarter, Dwight Howard, as the core of the inside of the Cleveland Cavaliers, his performance in the first quarter was also remarkable.

It is the echo between Wu Dawei and Dwight Howard on the inside and outside that ensures that the Cleveland Cavaliers can always maintain the leading advantage in this game tonight.

This is a very difficult thing.

After gaining a leading advantage in the first quarter, the Cleveland Cavaliers naturally hope that they can continue to be the leading side in the second quarter.

After all, they are playing away, so they naturally hope to keep the lead from beginning to end, rather than being a chaser in the away game.

In this way, the game will become more uncomfortable and exhausting, because as a chaser, you will naturally become very passive.

This is not what the Cleveland Cavaliers want to see. What they want to see is to continue to lead in the game, such as maintaining a lead on the field after the start of the second quarter.

After playing 10 minutes in the first quarter, Wu Dawei was transferred to the bench by Byron Scott to rest, although Byron Scott, as the team's coach, also hoped that the team could continue to maintain the leading advantage.

At present, such a team is only leading the Oklahoma City Thunder with a slight advantage, it is logical that it is the best choice to keep Wu Dawei on the basketball court.

However, it will obviously increase the risk of injury, and it is more likely to be injured when the human body is tired.

What's more, this game is a regular season game after all, and its importance is completely impossible to make Byron Scott allow Wu Dawei to stay on the basketball court for a long time.

Although Byron Scott, as the team's head coach, he actually hopes to see the teams under his leadership be able to create long-standing records in the league one after another.

However, compared to the team's goals this season, these so-called records are just not worth mentioning, so if Byron Scott can get it, it will naturally be the best thing. If you can't get it, it doesn't matter.

After all, the historical record of 33 consecutive victories is indeed a bit long and difficult. After all, this requires at least one team not to lose a game for two months.

In this situation, the Cleveland Cavaliers will begin to have more teams over time, hoping to defeat them.

So it is not easy for the Cleveland Cavaliers to set a record. Although they are hopeful, they do not have the idea of ​​winning 33 consecutive victories.

After all, the Cleveland Cavaliers have just won 21 games in a row, and countless voices have sounded in the league, vowing to block the current momentum of the Cleveland Cavaliers... (To be continued...)
