When the Cleveland Cavaliers came to Miami before Christmas, although the game was not held on the same day, they immediately became the "darlings" of the media here. Whether it was the local media reporters in Miami or the media from other places, they all rushed to the entire Cleveland Cavaliers team.

Everyone hopes to dig out some valuable news from the current popular Cleveland Cavaliers.

Because they are now the focus of attention in the United States, naturally, news about the Cleveland Cavaliers will be very valuable.

Everyone knows this, so when the Cleveland Cavaliers came to Miami, people stayed in the hotel and outside their training hall all day long.

As soon as the Cleveland Cavaliers players or coaches come out, reporters will immediately rush to their side and try to conduct a series of interviews with them.

This situation will naturally make the entire Cleveland Cavaliers feel a little annoyed.

But this is the treatment of the strongest team, and people always pay more attention to the strongest side, and it is obvious that the Cleveland Cavaliers are the strongest side in people's eyes at this time.

Although many people will also look forward to the Miami Heat being able to defeat the Cleveland Cavaliers in the Christmas Eve game to complete a counterattack.

However, it is obviously the Cleveland Cavaliers who won the game, which is something that more people think will happen. After all, the Cleveland Cavaliers have already won a 26-game winning streak.

Although the Miami Heat's current record of 21 wins and 4 losses is also very good, it is obvious that the Cleveland Cavaliers' current record is better.

And it is obviously much more dazzling. This alone is enough for the Cleveland Cavaliers to gain more support at this time.

After all, the Cleveland Cavaliers are in the limelight now, and even the Miami Heat will find it difficult to compete with them. Moreover, the Miami people's record of playing against each other in the past few seasons is indeed difficult for people to feel that they have too many chances of winning.

Even though they have some reinforcements this summer, it is obvious that such reinforcements cannot bring them a change in strength that is comparable to the Cleveland Cavaliers in an instant.

At least at this time, people think so. Most people are not optimistic about the Miami Heat's prospects in this game, and it is more or less related to these aspects.

But the Miami people don't feel any worries or concerns about this. They don't feel any worries about it at all, because they believe they can beat the Cleveland Cavaliers they face in this home game.

Although the Cleveland Cavaliers have been invincible so far since the beginning of this season, the Miami people believe that the night of Christmas on December 25 will bring the Cleveland people their first defeat in the new season!

Miami people are very confident about this, especially LeBron James. They are very confident about it. Although the Cleveland Cavaliers are in great momentum at present, LeBron James is not afraid of his upcoming old club.

And for him, this game can definitely be called a back-to-back battle. After all, in the previous seasons, the Miami Heat led by LeBron James failed and fell into the face of the Cleveland Cavaliers. This is especially true in the playoffs.

So for LeBron James, he and his team were so bad that they almost disintegrated this summer.

If it weren't for LeBron James personally, he went to find Miami Heat's boss Ariki, the Miami Heat would never have been so complete at this time.

Moreover, LeBron James is also very clear that the team boss Ariki is not very patient anymore. He also needs to make some proof to him now.

It proves that Ariki's large amount of US dollars in the Miami Heat will not be wasted. And this Christmas battle that people call on Christmas night is obviously the best opportunity for the Miami Heat.

LeBron James himself is also very aware of this situation, so for him, in this game against the Cleveland Cavaliers on Christmas Eve on December 25, he and his Miami Heat must win the game.

This is unquestionable.

So at this time, for LeBron James, how could he have no confidence in this game?

When a reporter asked him about his opinion on this game, LeBron James undoubtedly gave people a positive tone.

The game will officially start at 8 o'clock on December 25. No matter which side is, they are very serious and cautious about this game.

Because everyone knows what this game means, obviously compared to the Cleveland Cavaliers, the Miami people are very eager to win this game.

Especially now, their opponent on Christmas Eve, the Cleveland Cavaliers have achieved 26 consecutive games and no defeats. In this way, it will naturally make the Miami people even less willing to lose the game.

Because they achieved a record of 26 consecutive victories in the last season, the longest winning streak in the league in the past decade and the second longest winning streak in the league history.

The Miami Heat don't like the Cleveland Cavaliers so much that they naturally don't want to see their opponents achieve what they have achieved.

In addition, if they lose the game, it will give the Cleveland Cavaliers a chance to continue winning streak, so the Miamis will definitely not want to see the Clevelanders look so proud.

Of course, they will definitely give their strength to this Christmas Eve game!

As the Miami Heat's opponent in this game, the Cleveland Cavaliers also have a full reason to win this game.

After all, they are now only 7 games away from the longest winning streak in league history, so this gap is not big.

So at this time, for the Cleveland Cavaliers, they don’t want the city to be the loser, so they must also compete for the game to win in the game.

Besides, they are in such a good state now, so there is no reason for them to lose the victory in this game.

Both sides are eager to try this game at this time, so at this time, both the Cleveland Cavaliers and the Miami Heat have made all preparations for this.

Such a highly anticipated Christmas battle started on time at Miami at 8 o'clock in the evening.

Although it was Christmas Eve, the American Airlines Center was still crowded during the competition time, and Miami people filled the entire American Airlines Center.

There were crowds of people, all of them came to support the Miami Heat, who played at home. After all, the Miami people were very resentful of the Cleveland Cavaliers and Wu Dawei.

Of course, they must fanatically support the Miami Heat who plays at home. After all, the team won Andrew Bynum, known as the Little Sharks this summer, although he basically did not play in the previous games.

However, in the Christmas Eve game, Andrew Bynum was the first time in his career to represent the Miami Heat at home.

And Pat Riley directly made him the team's starting center, such a starting lineup, undoubtedly made many people feel unexpected at this time.

After all, you have to know that this is Andrew Bynum's first game in the new season.

This is definitely a bold decision to employ people, especially for the Miami Heat. After all, this is the first time Bynum is playing as a Miami Heat player.

However, Pat Riley did not intend to change such a decision. When the game was about to begin, Bynum still walked to the basketball court wearing the Miami Heat's No. 17 jersey.

Although the deal was completed in the summer, it was still amazing, but not many people were optimistic about the qualitative change that Bynum could bring to the Miami Heat.

Because obviously Andrew Bynum is no longer the inside star in the Los Angeles Lakers.

This is why people are not particularly optimistic about this deal. The only reason that caused a sensation is that the Miami Heat's strength in the inside is too weak, otherwise Bynum would have been no longer the Bynum he used to be.

People don't care too much about where he is going, so at this time, for the Miami Heat, whether Andrew Bynum can become their savior depends on how Andrew Bynum performs in this game.

After all, the only reason why the Miami Heat introduced Andrew Bynum was that he hoped that he could give the team great help in the game between the Miami Heat and the Cleveland Cavaliers.

When Andrew Bynum walked slowly to the basketball court with his Miami Heat teammates, Wu Dawei also walked up with Dwight Howard.

Looking at Andrew Bynum, Wu Dawei suddenly pushed Dwight Howard inexplicably, and then held his eyes on Andrew Bynum.

However, Dwight Howard didn't even look at Andrew Bynum, and walked into the middle circle directly.

Obviously, Dwight Howard did not put Andrew Bynum in his eyes, although the latter was once very popular and believed that he would become the talented center who challenged Dwight Howard.

But now things change, and obviously Dwight Howard is no longer comparable to Andrew Bynum. However, Andrew Bynum may not see that. When Dwight Howard and Bynum entered the middle circle together, it was not just Dwight Howard who did not look at Bynum at first glance. Bynum also ignored Dwight Howard.

The two of them stood in the middle circle like two people with no connection, but when the referee of this game tonight walked into the basketball court with the ball, both sides were already ready to go.

The referee signaled to the players on both sides at this time, and then after receiving the response from Dwight Howard and Andrew Bynum, he immediately threw the ball into the sky.

Although Bynum is unwilling to fall behind Dwight Howard, there is no doubt that in terms of jumping balls, Andrew Bynum is not Dwight Howard's opponent at all!

The latter directly transferred the ball to the half of the Cleveland Cavaliers, so the Cleveland Cavaliers got a very good start in this game on Christmas Eve.

In the away game, the Cleveland Cavaliers have the opportunity to attack first, so of course they will not waste such a hard-earned opportunity at this time.

Amid the booing of Miami fans in the American Airlines Center, the Cleveland Cavaliers quickly passed the half. Although Dwayne Wade played a full pressure defense from the beginning of the game, Kyrie Irving still successfully passed the ball through the half.

Wu Dawei took the initiative to catch the ball at this time. After all, the importance of this Christmas battle tonight is unquestionable, so Wu Dawei, as the core of the Cleveland Cavaliers and the boss of the team, naturally has to set an example at this time.

After all, this game is not just a match between the Cleveland Cavaliers and the Miami Heat. The grudges between Wu Dawei and LeBron James are also the focus of people's attention.

So at this time, of course, he would not retreat at all. Wu Dawei would not be afraid of the confrontation with LeBron James.

LeBron James was also very clear about this at this time, so when LeBron James saw Wu Dawei get the ball, he immediately reached the top of the three-point line.

The two of them had a direct confrontation at this time, whether it was Wu Dawei or LeBron James, of course, they still felt a little nervous inside.

After all, this goal was the first offense and defense at the beginning of this game, so both the Cleveland Cavaliers and the Miami Heat were very important.

Therefore, the two people on the confrontation at this time did not dare to have any fear at all.

Wu Dawei also seemed very cautious. Although after he came to the Cleveland Cavaliers, he rarely fell into a disadvantage when he faced LeBron and James.

But at this time, he still seemed very cautious. Similarly, LeBron James did not dare to make any mistakes at this time.

Because he knew that as long as he was a little distracted, he would be very likely to directly seize the opportunity. After all, Wu Dawei has always been a player who is very good at seizing opportunities!

The two men were on the right foot at the high position, but Wu Dawei still had to launch an attack. Dwight Howard actively ran up at this time, and then he made a high pick-and-roll for Wu Dawei at the three-point line.

Although Andrew Bynum followed at this time, when Wu Dawei moved with the help of Dwight Howard's pick-and-roll, Andrew Bynum could not keep up with Wu Dawei's footsteps well.

Dwight Howard blocked LeBron James again and delayed the latter's follow-up defense, which immediately created a good opportunity for Wu Dawei.

Faced with such an opportunity, Wu Dawei would definitely not choose to waste him, so he cut directly into the inside. And because Dwight Howard rushed out to make a pick-and-roll for him, at this moment, when Wu Dawei cut into the paint area, it could almost be said to be empty.

Although Chris Bosh tried to stop Wu Dawei's attack, it was obvious that he still couldn't do it alone, after all, he was not a defensive expert.

Wu Dawei cut into the inside and faced Bosh, dodging in the air, and then helped him avoid Chris Bosh's block. Then Wu Dawei threw the ball into the basket with a lightweight basket!

2:0!

Although this scene is not what the Miami Heat want to see, they must accept this situation at this time.

Although the Miami Heat played at home in this game tonight, they still became the backward side first.

The Cleveland Cavaliers took the lead, which was somewhat expected by many people. After all, in most people's eyes, the Cleveland Cavaliers are a more powerful side.

Now, after the Cleveland Cavaliers took the lead, they immediately retreated completely because they knew that they would definitely be much more cautious in away games than at home.

After conceding the ball, the Miami Heat immediately dribbled through halftime after regaining the ball.

Of course, they really hope to equalize the score as soon as possible. After all, for the Miami Heat, they had an extremely strong desire to win before the start of this game.
Chapter completed!
