225. Keep going

On April 26, after a day off, the second game of the Cleveland Cavaliers' series against the New York Knicks kicked off again. Still in the Quick Loan Center, the Cleveland Cavaliers faced the challenge of the New York Knicks at home.

Before that, on April 24, the Cleveland Cavaliers already had a leading advantage in one inning, so compared with the previous game, the Cleveland Cavaliers, who are leading the team, will have a greater psychological advantage!

Moreover, in this game, the pressure on the New York Knicks who played away will only increase or decrease. Because if they continue to lose tonight's game, then when they return to New York, they will have a total score of 0:2. Judging from the Cleveland Cavaliers' rule that they hardly lose much at home in the last two seasons, the New York Knicks will be in a bad situation in this round of the series!

So, for this game, the New Yorkers will still grit their teeth and fight to the top. Even if they cannot succeed, at least they can leave no regrets, right?

That's what this sentence says. Although the New York Knicks were at a huge disadvantage before the start of the game, they will still try their best to this game tonight.

If you can win a victory, it will not be just an unexpected surprise. For the New York Knicks, there will be a chance and hope to enter the next round of the game.

Of course, although they lost to the Cleveland Cavaliers in the last game, they still struggled to do it in this game.

New Yorkers regroup through a day's rest in order to create a glimmer of opportunity for themselves. They can't just surrender.

However, compared to the previous game, the New York Knicks were still much more restrained than before in the second match between the two sides on April 26. Before the first game began, Knicks player Smith would still shamelessly fantasize about the next round of the game. Before the game started, he would not say these things to the outside world, but instead focused on this upcoming game, hoping that the team could win this game tonight.

However, the outcome of the game is not something that New Yorkers can change and dominate if they become humble. After all, the gap between the two sides still makes people dislike them. Before the start of this game, people were still one-sidedly optimistic about the Cleveland Cavaliers who would win. They won a big victory in the last game, so in this game on April 26, most people also felt that the Cavaliers would still use a hearty big victory to expand their advantages in this round of the series.

And this is what Cleveland fans want to see, fly to New York 2:0 and then return to Cleveland 4:0 to prepare for the next round of the game. This is the blueprint that Cleveland fans have already drawn for the Cavaliers before the start of this series.

From the current perspective, such a blueprint is not impossible to achieve. The Cleveland Cavaliers are currently the team that is better than the Knicks in terms of strength and condition.

This game will start a little later and will be the last playoff game tonight, which is at 9 o'clock in the evening, so the players have more time to prepare before the game begins.

Although the game was held at 9 o'clock in the evening, the Quick Loan Center was already crowded at around 7 o'clock, and the enthusiasm of Cleveland fans burst out, just because the Cleveland Cavaliers are in the limelight at the moment!

The market has always been proportional to the record, and this is a team that frequently brings surprises to the outside world, so the market is naturally even more prosperous.

The game started at 9 o'clock, which did not dispel the enthusiasm of Cleveland fans for this game. When the game started, the stadium became even more popular than usual!

The Cleveland Cavaliers did not make any adjustments to the starting lineup of this game, and it was still led by Wu Dawei and Dwight Howard, Chauncey Billups, Anthony Parker and Andre Valaijo; and for the Knicks, Smith was transferred to the starting lineup by the Knicks coach McDanthony, and no changes were made in other positions.

The game officially started at 9 o'clock local time in Cleveland. Although Dwight Howard did not jump to the ball for the team at the beginning, Wu Dawei interrupted the ball from the Knicks' point guard Douglas, and then got a good start for the Cavaliers tonight's game.

The Cavaliers have never fallen into a disadvantage since the beginning of the game. They did not give the New York Knicks the opportunity to make the game anxious like they did in the last game. As soon as the game kicked off, they took the lead and quickly established an advantage on the lead.

The Cavaliers made a 8-0 wave of Little Gaochao at the opening and directly pushed the Knicks back to the bench. Knicks head coach McDanthony asked for a timeout after just three minutes of the first quarter, which shows how outstanding the Cleveland Cavaliers had in tonight's game.

Of course, McDanthony's actions can also be seen from the side. In fact, the Knicks also attach great importance to the game tonight. Otherwise, why should McDanthony be so crazy?

However, although D'Antoni made adjustments soon, the Knicks still couldn't escape the fate of falling behind. After the timeout, they made adjustments in tactical terms. Because the team was originally good at offense and had many players who were outstanding in individuals, the Knicks raised the rhythm of the game, hoping to play against the Cavaliers and disrupt the battle.

But even so, the Knicks did not reverse the game because of this, and went from the lagging side to the leading side. After the Cleveland Cavaliers returned from the timeout, they were still the leader on the court.

The New Yorkers want to play fast-paced offense and disrupt the battle, but the Cleveland Cavaliers have been such a team since last season. So the Cleveland Cavaliers are not familiar with the disruption. Moreover, although Dwight Howard is a center with sufficient tonnage in the interior, his flexibility is also excellent among the center.

Although he can't always rush to the front in fast attack like Wu Dawei, it's very easy to follow his teammates to get off the ground. So McDanthony wanted to use his speed to drag down the Cleveland Cavaliers' calculations and soon failed.

The Cleveland Cavaliers are still firmly controlling the rhythm of the game on the court. Whether it is McDanthony's adaptability or Spike Lee's yelling on the sidelines, it cannot affect the Cleveland Cavaliers' control over this game tonight.

At the end of the first quarter, the Cleveland Cavaliers even had a bigger advantage than the previous game. At 18:30, the Cavaliers led the New York Knicks by 12 points at the end of the first quarter!

This almost set the tone of the entire game in the first quarter, but the New Yorkers did not lose. Fortunately, the Cleveland Cavaliers' substitute gave them some breathing time.

Kyrie Irving continued to perform well in the game tonight. Although he did not make mistakes like the previous game after playing, he repeatedly shot irons, and even Danny Green became a hard-working blacksmith...

The 12-point gap was narrowed in the first half of the second quarter, which forced Wu Dawei and Dwight Howard to return to the court early again. When Wu Dawei and Dwight Howard returned to the court, the game situation was once again included in the rhythm of the Cleveland Cavaliers.

The narrowed score difference was further opened again after Wu Dawei and Dwight Howard, the two core members of the Cleveland Cavaliers, came on the court. And very quickly, the two joined hands to further widen the score difference to the double-digit range!

The Cleveland Cavaliers' originally precarious situation suddenly stabilized the situation with the help of Wu Dawei and Dwight Howard. Wu Dawei and Dwight Howard continued to perform well in this game tonight. The full text of Master Loneliness 2 read also made Cleveland fans who came to the Quick Loan Center tonight feel at ease.

Especially Wu Dawei, his performance this season is really stable. And even when the Cleveland Cavaliers have repeatedly performed ups and downs this season, Wu Dawei's performance has always been so outstanding.

Almost every night, he was able to contribute enough strength. Although he was a little less explosive, it was still enough to make everyone feel amazed!

The second quarter ended soon. The re-appearance of Wu Dawei and Dwight Howard allowed the Cleveland Cavaliers to stabilize the situation, and at the end of the first half, they once again stood on the leading side.

45:60. The Cleveland Cavaliers entered the halftime period with a huge advantage of 15 points at their home court. Wu Dawei and Dwight Howard, who played for 20 minutes in the first half, scored 14 points, 5 rebounds, 7 assists, 3 steals, and 18 points and 11 rebounds respectively.

The two players' scores combined, even exceeding half of the Cavaliers' team's score, can be seen, the two players' important position in the Cavaliers and how huge their performance has created for the Cavaliers.

The New Yorkers were depressed and once again in the stadium of the Quick Loan Center. The day before yesterday they suffered a 17-point defeat in this venue. Tonight, judging from the situation in the first half, it seems that what they are going to meet tonight is not just a 17-point defeat!

Fifteen minutes of rest time gave New Yorkers who were completely at a disadvantage in the first half a harbor and breathing time. But fifteen minutes later, they had to face the test of cruel reality!

Although there is no deep hatred with the New York Knicks such as the revenge of killing their father, the Cleveland Cavaliers will definitely not be lenient in the playoffs where you die or I live. Even though they were already 15 points ahead of their opponents in 24 minutes of the first half, the Cleveland Cavaliers players still tried all their strength after the second half kicked off.

Everyone must ensure that their victory tonight will not be reversed by the New Yorkers in the second half, so every Cavaliers player who played the game did not relax and careless. Everyone remembered their goals in this year's playoffs, but not just won a few games and won the playoffs prize, but the final O'Brien Cup!

Despite another time, the New Yorkers tried to lose to the death in the second half and counterattack the Cleveland Cavaliers. However, the Cleveland Cavaliers did not give them a chance. Wu Dawei once again locked the Knicks' core Cameron Anthony in the game. Although the Knicks did their best, they had no chance at all!

The Cleveland Cavaliers, who always maintain 12 points of attention, truly let the New York Knicks players feel what it means to be impeccable for a while!

In the second half, the Cleveland Cavaliers continued to dominate the field on both ends of the offense and defense, and gradually made the New York Knicks players realize how huge the strength gap is between the two teams!

Although Spike Lee was still sitting on the sidelines in the second half, his expression was no longer as fanatical as before. Obviously, the upcoming second defeat and the painful defeat in two consecutive games made the Knicks' most loyal fan feel extremely desperate!

He sat on the sidelines and silently, as if an old man had reached the end of his life. It made people feel quite unbearable, but this is the competitive sports where success and success are the king and defeated the enemy!

In the end, the Cleveland Cavaliers once again defeated the visiting New York Knicks in their home speed loan center. 88:115, with a nearly 30-point defeat, and the Knicks did not win a game in Cleveland.

The Knicks players left the court at the end of the game with great frustration, just like the silent Spike Lee, who made people sigh for them. But for New Yorkers, the most cruel time has not arrived yet! Because the game is not over yet! (To be continued.
