Although the Cleveland Cavaliers encountered a tenacious obstacle from the New York Knicks in the second quarter, they eventually survived these difficulties.

Although the New Yorkers are tenacious, there is indeed a huge gap in strength between the two sides. This gully is difficult to fill, at least in a short period of time.

The Knicks caused trouble at the beginning of the second quarter, but after the Cavaliers sent Wu Dawei back to the court to deal with it, the Cleveland Cavaliers, who played at home, quickly solved these problems and regained the lead.

Although Mike D'Anthony, the head coach of the New York Knicks, also requested a timeout very quickly, hoping to curb the Cavaliers' momentum to expand their lead, it is obvious that the Cleveland Cavaliers will never lose all their momentum just because of a break in one timeout.

When they stabilized their position, their huge advantage in strength became a solid foundation for the Cleveland Cavaliers to lead. When both sides sent their respective starters back to the court, the Cleveland Cavaliers were a team with both internal and external offense and defense.

It’s no wonder that others regard the Cleveland Cavaliers as the favorite to win the championship this season. No matter from which point of view, the Cleveland Cavaliers, which have experienced a major blood change this season, do have all the objective conditions to win the championship!

On the other hand, although the New York Knicks also have superstars in the league, they are like a mess. When Mike D'Anthony became famous, he was the leading offensive master in the league.

But in his tactical system, point guards are never a part that cannot be obtained, and this happens to be the weakest link of the New York Knicks. I have to say that this is an irony...

The Cavaliers continued to master the rhythm of the game in the second quarter. Although the New Yorkers caused them some trouble at the beginning of the second quarter, they then regained the rhythm of the game and led the New York Knicks who played away when the game entered halftime.

42:51, the Cleveland Cavaliers led by 9 points so that they could happily accept the cheers of Cleveland fans of the Speed ​​Loan Center when the whistle at the end of the midfield was blown. They walked into the player passage leisurely and walked into the locker room.

The New York Knicks, who were 9 points behind in the first half, naturally had no such good mood. The two teams were gathered together and walked towards the players' passage at the same time. The Cavaliers players had happy expressions on their faces, while the New York Knicks players were naturally mourning, obviously they were quite disappointed and frustrated with the game tonight.

Wu Dawei scored 18 points in the half and had 3 blocks and 3 steals. It can be said that throughout the game. Wu Dawei helped the Cleveland Cavaliers dominate both offense and defense; and another core player in the Cleveland Cavaliers, Dwight Howard, who is in the inside, also had 11 points and 8 rebounds.

The team's two core players performed so well, naturally, it was not surprising that the Cleveland Cavaliers' lead was somewhat unsurprising. Because in comparison, the New York Knicks' main player Cameron Anthony only scored 9 points in the first half. In terms of the scoring he is best at, he is only half of Wu Dawei's, not to mention his performance on the defensive end, his contribution is so unworthy compared to Wu Dawei.

Of course, the problem with the New York Knicks is not just that. Cameron Anthony's performance is one of the reasons why the New York Knicks fell behind the Cleveland Cavaliers by the end of the first half, not all.

As another superstar in the team, Amare Stoudemire only scored 5 points and 7 rebounds in the first half. The poor score made him look more like a blue-collar player, but this cannot be entirely blamed on Amare Stoudemire for not being able to do so. Because the reason why he did not score was not entirely related to his condition and performance, it was also related to the distribution of ball rights.

Amare Stoudemire only got four shots in the first half, and his shooting percentage was quite reasonable. As a superstar, Amare Stoudemire was once again a former player of Mike D'Antoni, and he occupies a very important position in the Knicks' tactical system.

However, D'Antoni's tactics are rarely implemented in the Knicks' games. Mike D'Antoni has basically lost prestige in the team, and Cameron Anthony and JR Smith on the outside are two goalkeepers. So it gradually began to make Amare Stoudemier become more and more insignificant in the team.

Although the Knicks' books look extremely good, there are many problems within their team, which is why they have always been a team hovering on the edge of the Eastern Conference playoffs.

Let’s take a look at other teams that cost about the same money as the Knicks. Which one is not the favorite to win the championship in the league? Only the Knicks are so weird. And this weird thing has been used for many years...

"It seems that our first victory is coming!"

Walking into the locker room and as soon as I sat down, Dwight Howard hit Wu Dawei. Wu Dawei laughed and said, "It seems like this. It's only 24 minutes away from our first victory!"

"That's right, 24 minutes, New Yorkers will continue to wait for the fate of slaughtering for 24 minutes!"

The two team bosses sat in the chairs in front of their respective lockers and smiled. Of course, the two were very satisfied with the result of the first half. Although there were some small episodes in the middle, this did not affect the trend of the entire game in the end. Naturally, Wu Dawei and Dwight Howard would not care about these.

Those who achieve great things are not careful! Both of them have the same goal, that is, the championship, and they naturally don’t care much about the process, because they only care about the final result!

Go to the top of the league in June and hold the O'Brien Cup!

Not only Wu Dawei and Dwight Howard were satisfied with the team's performance in the first half. After returning to the locker room, the team's head coach Byron Scott also praised the players' performance in the first half.

He encouraged the players to continue to maintain this trend in the second half of the game, laying the foundation for the victory and winning the first victory of the playoffs tonight!

"This game will become our pocket, and this has not changed in the first half of the game. I hope there will be no change in the second half of the game! If we want to win, we can only win! This is our first battle to win the championship! It cannot be lost!"

"No mistakes are allowed!"

"No mistakes are allowed!"

The cries of the Cleveland Cavaliers players rang out in the locker room. Although they took the lead in the first half, they would definitely not relax their vigilance in the second half. The goal of winning this game tonight was not changed because of any situation.

The fifteen-minute break passed quickly, and the players of the two teams quickly returned to the court and began to warm up on the court. Make final preparations for the upcoming second half!

The Cleveland Cavaliers, who led their opponent by 9 points in the first half, were proud at this time; on the other hand, every player's face was still expressionless. Although he was gone without the previous frustration and disappointment, he still couldn't see his confidence and ambition!

In terms of momentum alone, the New York Knicks, who played away, were already at a disadvantage.

It is already very difficult for most people to win this game. The Cleveland Cavaliers have such a big advantage. Will they give them a chance? Obviously, this is basically not.

"Oh~ the second half is about to start again, Charles, do you have any opinions on the second half? Do you think the New York Knicks still have a chance to turn the tables?"

Kenny Smith, who was sitting in the commentator's seat on the sidelines, hurriedly asked Barkley beside him before the start of the second half. Barkley curled his lips when he heard this, with an expression of not optimistic about the New York Knicks at all. He said, "Come on the turn? Look at the New Yorkers' weak look with their faces. I can't see any fighting spirit from them! Wu Dawei's block and toughness have scared this group of young men from the pampered big city! They can't limit Wu Dawei's performance on the court, and at the same time, they themselves have not shown any qualities that may win this game! If I want to say, they are the stepping stones for a group of Cavaliers!"

Barkley's words made the fans of Xinglefland sitting beside him cheer, but Spike Lee gritted his teeth. But Spike Lee couldn't refute it because the performance of the New York Knicks in the first half was indeed unsatisfactory.

Although they caused some difficulties to the Cleveland Cavaliers in the middle of the game, in general, they did not pose a real substantial threat to the Cavaliers. The players of the Difficult Cavaliers could not feel the murderous aura on them.

When a team's core player is suppressed by the core player of the opponent's team, it would be a bit fantasy to win the game.

So when Spike Lee sat on the sidelines and watched the second half of the game begin and the players of the two teams walked onto the court one after another, Spike Lee's eyes lingered on Wu Dawei and Cameron Anthony, and finally turned into a silent sigh.

In front of Wu Dawei, although Cameron Anthony entered the league six years earlier than him, he was still just a star who had become nothing...

The many honors that Wu Dawei won last season were those that Cameron Anthony had played for nearly ten seasons, but never got involved. Wu Dawei was selected for the Best Defensive Team last season, which is something that Cameron Anthony had not even won the Best Defensive Team three teams; Wu Dawei was also the best second team player last season, and Cameron Anthony played for nearly ten seasons, but only entered a few times...

Not to mention that Wu Dawei won the highest honor on the defensive end last season and the best defensive player of the year award!

Of course, compared to last season, everyone believes that in this season, Wu Dawei will receive more and louder honors than last season. With his average of 30 points, 10 rebounds, 7 assists, 4 steals and 3 blocks in the regular season, it is definitely a foregone conclusion to be selected for the best first team and the best defensive first team this season!

And these alone are hard to reach for Cameron Anthony, let alone Wu Dawei is still a popular candidate for MVP this season. Many people even admitted that this year's MVP winners will choose between Wu Dawei and LeBron James!

In just one season, Wu Dawei left Cameron Anthony far behind. All this was something that the New Yorkers didn't expect when they introduced Cameron Anthony from the Denver Nuggets. And what's even more ironic is that there are two players like the Pacific Ocean, one with an annual salary of up to 20 million US dollars, while the other only has five million!

Although Cameron Anthony's average of 26 points and 8 rebounds per game this season, his annual salary of 20 million cannot be considered as high salary and low energy; however, with Wu Dawei's performance and value created this season, he is definitely the most basic salary and high energy player in league history!

Such terrifying data, the league's historical per-value. Wu Dawei's appearance made the entire Cleveland Cavaliers make a fortune!

Spike Lee shook his head and sighed on the sidelines. The second half of the game had already begun amid the hysterical cheers of Cleveland fans. As people had expected, the Cleveland Cavaliers, who led their opponents by 9 points in the first half, would never give the New York Knicks any chance in the second half.

As the second half of the game started, they directly stole the opponent's hands and then completed the score. The score difference was widened to more than double digits in one fell swoop. And the person who did all this was Wu Dawei!

Wu Dawei continued his unstoppable mode on the court. Although the New York Knicks were unwilling to surrender, if they continued to fight like this, losing would definitely be a punishment that would not be able to escape!

Although Mike D'Anthony, the head coach of the New York Knicks, has frequently adjusted the team's tactics and personnel, the two core cores of the Cleveland Cavaliers have performed well.

Although Dwight Howard met an opponent tonight was the championship center last season. However, Dwight Howard, as the league's number one center, is not afraid of Tyson Chandler's title at all.

In addition, the team played so smoothly, Dwight Howard was also very imposing!

At the beginning of the second half, the Cleveland Cavaliers played a wave of Xiao Gaochao on both offense and defense. The whole team tried their best to give the New York Knicks a chance to play away.

Although the New Yorkers who were unwilling to fail in this attempt to stop the counterattack, they were eventually resolved by the Cleveland Cavaliers one by one. In their home speed loan center, the Cleveland Cavaliers did not give any hope of turning the tables on the New Yorkers who came from far away.

With the high-chao they played just at the beginning of the second half, the Cleveland Cavaliers finally defeated their opponent in the first round of the playoffs in the Speed ​​Loan Center without any blood.

88:105, the huge advantage of 17 points made the Cleveland Cavaliers feel relaxed and comfortable to win. Although they can't be said to be particularly perfect in this game. Young newcomers Kyrie Irving and Danny Green performed badly. One scored 10 points in the fourth quarter, with a shooting percentage of only a dismal 25. The other one made 3 of 5 shots outside the three-point line, but most of the goals came from the fourth quarter, which was already unsurprising...

Fortunately, Wu Dawei and Dwight Howard's performance was very outstanding. Wu Dawei played 30 points in this game, contributing 29 points and 10 rebounds, 5 assists and 5 steals and 4 blocks to the team. Since he only played for 9 minutes in the second half, Wu Dawei should have obtained more terrifying data; Dwight Howard, who was in the inside, also scored 25 points for the team and 15 rebounds and 3 blocks. In the match against Tyson Chandler, Dwight Howard can be said to have completely gained the upper hand.

Just like this game tonight, the Cleveland Cavaliers won the New York Knicks!

Although this is not a fierce game, the Cleveland fans who came to the Speed ​​Loan Center tonight were still very happy because they defeated their first opponent in the playoffs this evening and won their first victory on the road to championship!

By the time they won this game, they had already taken the lead in the first round of the playoffs.

The 1:0 score allows Cleveland Cavaliers players to prepare for the second game of the Cleveland Cavaliers and the New York Knicks series that will arrive the day after tomorrow.

In the Cleveland Cavaliers, who won a big victory in the first game, they were naturally full of confidence in the second game that was about to come. Starting back on the playoffs, this feeling is great and very exciting for the Cleveland Cavaliers players who lost the finals last season!
