756.
When Wu Dawei came on the court, the Cleveland Cavaliers were already behind 25:39 and gave their opponents 14 points. The San Antonio Spurs were at home and now have a huge lead.
Naturally, this will make the Cleveland Cavaliers' situation extremely bad at this time, and Wu Dawei also understands this very well, so at this time, he knows that he needs to continue to assume the responsibility of being the team leader.
After the second quarter started again, the ball rights were still in the hands of the Cleveland Cavaliers. Wu Dawei held the ball, while Ramon Sessions was not greedy for the ball rights.
After he controlled the ball and passed half, he chose to hand it over to Wu Dawei. When Wu Dawei received the ball, the opponent he faced was not Kauwai Leonard.
Of course, this made Wu Dawei feel even more relaxed. Of course, the San Antonio Spurs' lead in the score will still make Wu Dawei feel stressed.
So when dealing with the ball, Wu Dawei will be extra careful, after all, every ball is crucial at this time.
If the Cleveland Cavaliers want to catch up with the 14-point gap at this time, they must do a good job in every subsequent offensive and defensive round.
So after Wu Dawei held the ball, he asked Dwight Howard to run out from the inside to make a pick-and-roll for himself. Then, Wu Dawei easily got rid of the defender with the help of the pick-and-roll.
He got a good shooting opportunity within the three-point line. Wu Dawei did not hesitate at all. He immediately jumped up and then chose to use a jump shot to throw the ball towards the basket!
The ball was brushed and entered the net with a sound. Obviously, Wu Dawei's touch was quite good.
Such a shot helped the Cleveland Cavaliers turn the score to 27:39, and they narrowed the gap to 12 points.
However, the gap is still very huge. So at this time, the Cleveland Cavaliers still need to work hard, not just on the offensive end, but also on the defensive end!
So when the ball rights were changed and the Cleveland Cavaliers returned to the defensive end, they immediately set up a formation and waited for the San Antonios to attack.
Tony Parker and Manu Ginobili are both on the basketball court at this time, so the defensive pressure on the Cleveland Cavaliers on the outside will become very huge.
Although both of them are veterans, no one dares to underestimate their existence. So at this time, when Tony Parker passed the ball with the ball, the Cleveland Cavaliers were ready to go, and they needed to take it seriously.
However, obviously Tony Parker, who had just appeared on the court, did not prepare for attack. He handed the ball to Manu Ginobili after halftime.
Manu Ginobili held the ball. The person who defended him was Ramon Sessions, which made him feel Alexander.
The moment the two men met outside the three-point line, Ramon Sessions quickly fell into a disadvantage, and the Cleveland Cavaliers' defensive formation on the outside was torn apart at once.
A hole was torn apart!
Manu Ginobili rushed in with the help of this hole, which was a bad thing for the Cleveland Cavaliers' defense.
So Wu Dawei rushed up at the first time, and of course he could not easily let his opponent succeed. After all, what the Cleveland Cavaliers need most now is to narrow the gap in the score.
And it is to narrow it as much as possible, so every point is very critical at this time. The Cleveland Cavaliers not only need to score points on the offensive end, but they also need to make a difference on the defensive end.
This is unquestionable.
So at this time, Wu Dawei chose to pounce without hesitation. He tried to stop Manu Ginobili, but the latter obviously did not submit so easily.
So at this moment, when Wu Dawei rushed forward, Manu Ginobili also passed the ball. However, Wu Dawei suddenly jumped up halfway and grabbed the ball that Manu Ginobili passed!
Steal!
The steal happened like this without anyone predicting it.
When Wu Dawei seized the ball, the Cleveland Cavaliers immediately set off a counterattack horn. They did not want to give their opponents any chance, so at this time the Cleveland Cavaliers naturally had to seize every opportunity.
After Wu Dawei cut off the ball, he quickly chose to advance to the frontcourt. His rapid attack made the San Antonio people feel a little unprepared.
Then he rushed into the San Antonio Spurs paint area in one dragon, and then smashed the ball into the basket!
The score was rewritten again, becoming 29:39. The difference in points returned to 10 points. Undoubtedly, the substitution of the Cleveland Cavaliers head coach Byron Scott was the correct choice.
The game only started over a minute, but there was no doubt that after Wu Dawei and Dwight Howard came on the court, the Cleveland Cavaliers no longer allowed their disadvantages to become so huge.
The situation began to improve, at least the score difference was gradually narrowing, and the Cleveland Cavaliers became increasingly favorable under such circumstances.
When the situation in the game was narrowed down to only 10 points by the Cleveland Cavaliers, the head coach of the San Antonio Spurs, who was standing on the sidelines, seemed a little anxious.
Because for him, such a situation is undoubtedly very bad.
Although the San Antonio Spurs were still 10 points ahead, the situation became passive. After all, the performance of the Cleveland Cavaliers after the game restarted still made the San Antonio people feel very afraid.
So at this time, of course, they naturally felt a little worried, worried that the Cleveland Cavaliers would immediately play a high-speed challenge to directly reverse the trend of the entire game.
So at this time, "bobo" Vicci directly requested a timeout. Although "bobo" Vicci often lets the main players take turns to rest in the regular season, resulting in frequent fines, if the opponent he met in the regular season was the Cleveland Cavaliers, it would be different.
It can be said that for "bobo" Vicci, the least opponent he wants to lose to now is Wu Dawei and his Cleveland Cavaliers.
Of course, in such a situation, he must have a reaction. "bobo" Vicci's reaction was to directly request a pause. It seemed that he really didn't want his opponent to continue this momentum. So he could only use pause to interrupt the situation.
After all, the timeout is the most direct and effective. During the rest, the players will slowly calm down, and perhaps their state will disappear.
This is the best idea, of course it is not the only reason why "bobo" Vicci requested a pause at this time. When he requested a pause, he scolded all his players.
"bobo" Vicci was very dissatisfied with this because in his opinion, after the team achieved such a huge lead in the early stage, it should be natural to continue to expand such an advantage!
How could it be like this now that the Cleveland Cavaliers were caught up with me!?
This situation made him feel extremely angry because it was completely different from what he had imagined before. "bobo" Vicci needs the team to cheer up again, but he cannot let his opponent continue to play a score-chasing performance. This is not what he wants to see.
On the Cleveland Cavaliers side, Byron Scott, who is the team's head coach, undoubtedly seemed very happy and excited.
Because his substitutions have a significant effect, he of course motivated his players during the timeout, and hoped that they could continue to maintain the intensity of such a game.
As long as the Cleveland Cavaliers continue to play like this, the Cleveland Cavaliers will naturally have hope of a comeback, but obviously this is not what "bobo" Vicci expected to happen.
So when the timeout ended and the game was about to start again, "bobo" Vic immediately replaced Kauwai Leonard.
Although Kauwai Leonard has never been very good at defending Wu Dawei, he is the best wing defender in the San Antonio Spurs after all.
So at this time, "bobo" Vicci can only place hope on him, otherwise, waiting for the San Antonio Spurs would be a tragic thing.
This is not what "bobo" Vicci wants to see.
When the game started again, both sides almost replaced their starters on the basketball court, but Tim Duncan was still pressed off the court by "bobo" Vic.
Obviously, due to age issues, "bobo" Vicci will strictly control the playing time of this old guy and will not let him play easily.
So after returning from the timeout, the pressure on the Cleveland Cavaliers did not suddenly become very huge.
Although Kauwai Leonard's appearance will definitely help the San Antonio Spurs, he rarely does not fall into a disadvantage when facing Wu Dawei.
The first quarter game tonight was an accident. He did not fall into the disadvantage in the first quarter game. But he just didn't fall into the disadvantage!
So at this time, if you want to expect Kauwai Leonard to defeat Wu Dawei, it would be a bit too naive.
When the game started again, the San Antonio Spurs took the lead in holding the ball. They needed to reopen the situation, even if they still had a 10-point advantage, but after the game started again, they still seemed extremely cautious.
Among the several matches with the Cleveland Cavaliers, the San Antonio Spurs have not been turned over by their opponents, so at this time, of course, they will not hope that the nightmare will happen.
Of course, under such circumstances, they hope to stabilize the situation. Tony Parker dribbled the ball through halftime, and Manu Ginobili might have been affected by the previous steal by Wu Dawei, so he did not take the initiative to go up and receive the ball.
Tony Parker was controlling the ball at this time, and his first choice was naturally to try to hit the inside line. After all, he had extremely high confidence in the paint area, so he didn't think about anything else.
He asked his teammates from the inside to come up and make a pick-and-roll for him at the high position, and then tried to attack the inside. Wu Dawei still chose to double-team at this time, but Parker directly chose to pass the ball.
Wu Dawei was unable to block Tony Parker's pass in this defense, which caused the ball to fall directly into the hands of Kauwai Leonard.
After the latter received the ball, he immediately chose to jump up. For Kauwai Leonard, this is a very good opportunity, and of course he has to seize it at this time.
So Leonard jumped up and then threw the ball into the basket!
29:41, undoubtedly, Leonard's shot is very critical. After all, the Cleveland Cavaliers, led by Wu Dawei, chased points continuously. Now, his goal has helped the San Antonio Spurs stabilize the situation slightly.
However, when he scored a goal, the San Antonio Spurs needed to face Wu Dawei and his Cleveland Cavaliers again on the defensive end.
Undoubtedly, this is another test. For the Cleveland Cavaliers, they had already performed well on the offensive end in their previous games, and now they believe they can continue to play like this.
Wu Dawei became the ball holder. Since the team had been brought by Kyrie Irving before, Kyrie Irving went to rest under the basketball court at this time.
Naturally, the ball rights will be more in the hands of Wu Dawei. When Wu Dawei held the ball, the entire San Antonio Spurs' defense line immediately became nervous.
Because they were not sure they could defend this attack from the Cleveland Cavaliers, they naturally felt extremely nervous at this time.
Wu Dawei faced Kauwai Leonard. Although the latter performed very well in this game tonight. However, Wu Dawei was still not nervous at all when facing him.
Because for him, Kauwai Leonard has lost countless times. So how could Wu Dawei be confused? He held the ball at a high position, but this time he still chose to forcibly break into the inside.
Kauwai Leonard still had no way to deal with Wu Dawei. Although he tried his best to curb Wu Dawei's breakthrough, he still fell into a disadvantage in this confrontation...
The situation became very bad, and the San Antonio Spurs naturally had to attack this, so at this time, they would have a free time.
For Wu Dawei, he naturally would not miss this opportunity. So he directly chose to pass the ball, and the ball was passed to Ramon Sessions, who fell in the open position.
Although Sessions was not very powerful in shooting, he still chose to shoot at this time. After all, he was still confident about Kong Lan.
So he chose to shoot directly, and after a flight, the ball also crawled into the basket with a silence. Without any drag, he crawled into the basket! 31:41, the score gap was still 10 points.
In fact, the San Antonio still has a huge lead, but "bobo" Vicci is very unhappy about it.
Because obviously his team is still being asked by his opponent on the defensive end. Although the San Antonio Spurs have been no longer a team that is good at defense since their transformation, "bobo" Vicci cannot tolerate the situation where his opponent can score goals with just one goal.
Naturally, he began to roar again because he really couldn't satisfy the players' performance.
However, it is obvious that this will not bring too good help to the San Antonio Spurs' defense at this time. Because the Cleveland Cavaliers are still seeking offensively.
Fortunately, the San Antonio Spurs' own offensive performance is also very happy. It is precisely because of this that they always maintain the leading advantage in the game.
Even though the Cleveland Cavaliers played very well in the second quarter, they still couldn't catch up with the lagging point difference in the second quarter.
However, they gradually narrowed the gap in the score, which gave the Cleveland Cavaliers a little comfort.
Although they were always behind in this game tonight, they still had hope of winning this game.
And it is precisely because of this hope that the Cleveland Cavaliers have never given up on this game.
They are still working hard all the time. Even though the San Antonios are in excellent offensive form tonight, when the first half game ends, the results they achieved are still not enough to ensure that they can win the game in this game tonight...
49:57, when the first half ended, the San Antonios' lead was only 8 points. Compared to the previous lead of 14 points, 8 points undoubtedly dropped a lot!
So although the San Antonios are the leading side at this time, they are actually not satisfied at the end of the half-time game, especially "Bobo" Vicci, the team's head coach. The team has gained a huge lead from the beginning, but they have not been able to make good use of such an advantage. Instead, the Cleveland Cavaliers close the gap in the score so that only 8 points left at the end of the half...
Chapter completed!
