177. Problems beyond the arc

Danny Green looked at Jason Capono, who was sitting on the bench with his head tugging and holding his head down the court, and of course he knew what the shooter was so dejected.

It is precisely because of this that Danny Green felt even more anxious. He wanted to get a chance to play, and couldn't wait. Because Danny Green saw the Orlando Magic's head coach Stan Van Gundy, he had already replaced JJ Redick on the court.

The Orlando Magic's scorer has been on the court for a long time and has also hit a key three-pointer from the outside, which is the three-pointer that the Magic overtook the Cleveland Cavaliers before!

Danny Green turned his attention to the team's head coach Byron Scott standing on the side of the court, and his anxiety burned even more. He wanted to play games, especially when Dwight Howard encouraged him that morning, Danny Green wanted to succeed more and more.

But Danny Green also knew very well in his heart that it was really difficult for him to get the chance to play, because he has basically not played much so far this season. This is one of the reasons why Danny Green was anxious.

Although he was sitting on the chair, Danny Green had never felt that this chair would be so pissing. His longing eyes were often on the court, but more of the head coach Byron Scott standing on the side of the court.

Scott was very dissatisfied with the situation on the court. Although his team had an advantage at the beginning tonight's game, he was shot from outside the three-point line by the opponent at this time.

At the same time, his team's shooting percentage so far is 1 of 4 shots outside the three-point line...

Dwight Howard's all-out shot outside the three-point line created by the Cavaliers basically never hits. The poor outside shooting has made the Orlando people more unscrupulous in choosing to double-team Howard.

In Scott's mind, solving the team's outside shooting is obviously the top priority. After all, the Cavaliers are getting better and better, and this is only a matter of time. However, the Cavaliers can only rely on internal mining to solve the outside shooting.

Scott shook his head as he watched the game situation on the court, and then he walked back to the bench and prepared to sit down and discuss with his assistants.

Just as Scott was about to return to his seat, he turned his head and felt a hot gaze staring at him.

Danny Green was looking at him with a burning look. Scott suddenly felt a little furious when he was staring, but he didn't pay attention to the young defender. He sat straight onto his chair and began to discuss with his assistants the countermeasures for the game tonight.

On the court, after Wu Dawei took the field, the Cavaliers held the ball, but at this time the entire Amway Center seemed crazy, and the Orlando fans dancing wildly filled the entire arena with wanton screams.

The Cavaliers players seemed a little alone for a while. JJ Redick made such a crucial three-pointer, which made the Orlando Magic very excited. This was their first lead in this game! It was enough to make them cheer for this.

However, the Cavaliers were not completely disrupted because of this. Wu Dawei's timely return allowed them to find their backbone. Kyrie Irving took the ball from Ramon Sessions. Then he tried to try his own attack but failed, and chose to pass the ball to Wu Dawei who was cut.

The Magic are responsible for defending Wu Dawei, their shooting guard Frenchman Pitrus, but Wu Dawei's air cut this time is very smooth. He scored 11 points in the first quarter, almost unstoppable. It is precisely because of his outstanding performance on the offensive end that the Cavaliers were able to still lead the opponent with five three-pointers in the first quarter when the Orlando Magic scored 5 three-pointers in the first quarter.

At this time, Wu Dawei received a pass from Irving in the air cut, and he dribbled the ball straight into the paint area! Suddenly, a burst of exclamations sounded from the Amway Center, and the hearts of Orlando fans suddenly became thrust. They were nervous.

Seeing Wu Dawei rushing into the paint area with an unstoppable posture like a sharp arrow, Wu Dawei jumped up in the paint area. Then, he dunked!

36:36, the two sides once again tied, and Wu Dawei once again made great contributions to the team after he re-played. Although he had a while off, Wu Dawei once again became the biggest threat to the Orlando Magic after he re-played!

In the stadium, Wu Dawei's goal once again lamented that he had scored 13 points, and his current shooting percentage was 6 of 6 shots, and he had never missed it. Undoubtedly, if the Magic did not curb Wu Dawei's offense, it would be difficult for them to win this game.

However, to curb Wu Dawei, who can contribute 30 points per game this season, this is not as easy as saying it is.

The game continued, and although the score was immediately equalized, Orlando Magic's head coach Stan Van Gundy is still acceptable for the current situation on the court. After all, the Magic are the weakest side in this game no matter what, if they can hold up the game, it is of course the best thing to do.

The Magic attacked again, and Pitrus took the ball to face Kyrie Irving's defense. He chose to pass the ball back to the substitute point guard JJ Redick Redick faced Sessions' defense at a high position. His previous three-point shot increased his confidence. He tried to get rid of Sessions in no way. After all, he was a shooter and was not very good at being extraordinary, so he attracted pick-and-roll from his teammates.

jj. Redick averaged 12 points per game to the Magic this season, and his three-point shooting percentage was as high as 44%, which has become the Magic's main scoring point on the court at present.

When he chose to rely on his teammate's pick-and-roll and throw away Sessions, who was responsible for defending himself, he chose to jump up and shoot outside the three-point line, and the ball had not yet taken the ball, a figure flew from Redick!

A figure that looks huge enough!

"It's Wu Dawei!"

On the side of the court, there were already Aolai fans who noticed Wu Dawei's flying look. Redick had raised his hands high at this time, but before he could finish the shooting, he felt a force that he could not control at all. Then... the ball in his hand was blocked!

A bang!

The ball was slapped away, but it was not out of the league! Ramon Sessions was quick-eyed and quick-handed at this time. He quickly stood out from the crowd, then got the ball and ran towards the front court!

The Cavaliers' defensive counterattack, and the Orlando Magic no longer had any reaction time.

With Sessions' layup, the score became 38:36, and the Cavaliers once again brought the lead to their own side. After only one minute Wu Dawei played, the Cavaliers regained the advantage on the court.

This situation made Orlando fans depressed for a long time. They had just gained the lead and gave in a blink of an eye. There was nothing more depressing for them than this.

The ball rights were back in the hands of the Orlando man, but at this time, the Magic's head coach Stan Van Gundy didn't dare to continue to let the game continue like this. He dispatched troops and let Jamal Niels and Glen Davis return to the court first.

The two are still waiting for a chance to play on the sidelines. The Orlando Magic have brought the ball through half and are now organizing the offense in the half of the Cleveland Cavaliers.

Redick may have been affected by the blocking of Wu Dawei before. This time, he did not choose to shoot himself, but handed the ball to veteran Lasu. Butler. Although Butler averaged 20 minutes in the mall this season, he could contribute 7 points and 4 rebounds to the team, but the defense he faced at this moment came from Wu Dawei, the best defensive player last season.

So his hasty shot was the result of a missed shot.

The rebound was grabbed by the Cleveland Cavaliers players, and then Kyrie Irving drove the ball to the frontcourt. After coming to the Orlando Magic's half, he chose to force the Magic's inside line, and the jump in the paint allowed him to throw the ball out. However, the Magic's efforts to return to defense were interfered with his pick-up!

The ball hit the front of the basket and then bounced out!

The Orlando fans in the Amway Center are secretly glading the blessing of God, and the next second they see the person they least want to see appears in the place they least want to see.

After Kyrie Irving jumped, Wu Dawei jumped over the Orlando Magic's paint area. Then, under everyone's gaze, he grabbed the ball that came out of the basket. Then, Wu Dawei was no longer able to stop him!

He held the ball and then dunked in full view of everyone!

40:36!

The Cavaliers expanded their lead and turned the Orlando's previous efforts into vain.

Immediately afterwards, both sides began to send their starters back to the court in the following time, and the game was not pulled away by the Cleveland Cavaliers because the Orlando still had a good three-point shooting percentage outside the three-point line, especially their point guard Jamal Nelson, who felt very hot outside the three-point line.

The Cavaliers were unable to completely solve the Orlando Magic's shooting ability outside the three-point line, and at the same time, their own feel outside the three-point line did not improve much. This is why the Cleveland Cavaliers were unable to widen the score difference on the court until the end of the first half.

The gap between the two sides has been tight. Although the Cleveland Cavaliers have always had a leading advantage in the away game, the Orlando Magic have never been widened by the Cleveland Cavaliers with their home advantage and their excellent performance outside the three-point line.

The unexpectedly anxious game was a bit shocking. Especially the media from Cleveland, after all, in their eyes, they obviously did not take the down-and-out Orlando Magic seriously this season.

For other reporters from other places who came to Amway Center tonight, this game also made them feel even more ridiculous about the current state of the Cavaliers, especially several reporters who are about to play against the Cavaliers. If the Cavaliers are in this state, then for them, this team will not be a team that will shock the entire league if they lose a game in the first half of the season!

As for the first half of this game, Cavaliers head coach Byron Scott was also quite dissatisfied with the game. At the end of the first half, the score was 58:56. The Cavaliers only led by 2 points and entered the second half.

Although they were basically the leaders in the first half, the situation of not being able to pull the score was an important reason for Scott's dissatisfaction.

After the whistle at the end of the first half, both sides began to walk towards the player passage one after another. Both the Orlando Magic and the Cliff Cavaliers players looked frowning.

The Cavaliers were only a little ahead if they were not satisfied. The Magic were upset that they did not tie the score. Both sides had their own opinions on the unfavorable first half.

For Cavaliers head coach Byron Scott, the biggest headache for him was the Cavaliers' shooting percentage outside the three-point line in the first half, with only 2 of 8 shots!

A 25% three-point shooting percentage is really bad!

"Hey, Wu!"

On the way to the locker room, Scott called Wu Dawei. Wu Dawei was talking to Danny Green. He stopped and asked Green to take a step first.

"I need you to continue playing like this in the second half!"

Scott said that Wu Dawei scored 20 points in the first half, which was his highest score in the second half of the season. It was precisely because Wu Dawei's performance on the offensive end that the Cavaliers still had the lead while being so outstanding outside the Magic's three-point line.

"You know, we're in a bad shape outside the 3-point line tonight, so we need a more efficient offense inside the 3-point line!"

Wu Dawei nodded, and he also knew that the current situation was a bit serious. Before the start of this game, they did not regard the Magic as their opponent, but the reality had to make them face it with caution.

"I know, coach!" Wu Dawei agreed. As the team's performance in the first half, Wu Dawei, as the player with the most playing time, of course, was very clear about what the situation was like. The state outside the three-point line was really disappointing, but Wu Dawei immediately thought of Danny Green, so he continued: "Well, coach... But for the three-point shooting, I also have some suggestions, maybe we can use some new players." (To be continued...)
