275. The king and the loser
The second game of the East District final on the evening of May 21st was definitely a surprise to everyone who watched the game. Before this game began, LeBron James and his Miami Heat were in full swing.
First, he defeated the Cleveland Cavaliers in the game on May 19 and achieved a good start in the Eastern Conference Finals this season. The 1:0 lead at that time, it could be said that the whole city of Miami cheered and cheered for it. Then, on the 20th, the league announced the 2011-2012 MVP. LeBron James won this award, which made Miami's basketball atmosphere extremely enthusiastic.
Because they have to know that their opponent this time is the Cleveland Cavaliers and Wu Dawei, and Wu Dawei and Miami, there is no need to re-narrate the grudge between Wu Dawei and Miami. Although it is not as tense as LeBron James and Cleveland, they will still be choked when they meet.
And the more important reason is that after the Miami Heat only transferred from Wu Dawei to Cleveland, every time they faced Wu Dawei, they almost ended in failure; more losses and less wins are also one of the reasons why Miami people are so excited.
Of course, on the night of the 21st, the MVP night belonging to LeBron James was highly anticipated by countless Miami people. And when James won the MVP trophy at the American Airlines Center, Miami reached the highest atmosphere.
And from this moment on, unexpected things began to happen one after another!
In this MVP night that should belong to LeBron James, Wu Dawei played his own game rhythm from the beginning of the game. He made LeBron James and the Miami Heat, who should have become the protagonist in this game, both became supporting roles from the beginning of the game!
This situation is enough to make people feel surprised and puzzled. But the real incredible thing is behind. With Wu Dawei's outstanding performance in the opening game, the Cleveland Cavaliers quickly established a leading advantage. Although people were a little surprised at this time, they still felt that they would still belong to LeBron James and the Miami Heat tonight.
But what happened next made everyone stop thinking like this. Wu Dawei played in an extremely outstanding state just one second of the game, which also led to his feat of bombarding 48 points in this game!
If it weren't for Wu Dawei being knocked away by James and injured, and the Cleveland Cavaliers would have led the Miami Heat by as much as 29 points in the third quarter. Wu Dawei's score tonight would definitely not be just this number!
As a MVP this season and just crowned the yellow robe, LeBron James played his worst form since the start of the playoffs this season in this night that should have belonged to him!
He played 35 minutes in the game, scored 20 points with a shooting percentage of 7 of 22 shots. James did not gain even a slight advantage in the match against Wu Dawei. It can be said that he was beaten by Wu Dawei from beginning to end!
Because Wu Dawei not only contributed 48 points, he also had 12 rebounds, 4 assists, 6 steals and 4 blocks!
Although people are accustomed to his performances every game, people are still shocked by Wu Dawei's outstanding performance in this game tonight.
It was not just because of Wu Dawei's outstanding performance, but also because Wu Dawei once again made his personal ability, which made his opponent feel extremely desperate. Moreover, this night was a glorious night for the opponent, and it was destroyed by Wu Dawei with his outstanding performance and performance!
This inevitably makes people feel extremely amazed for Wu Dawei.
Wu Dawei used his radiant performance throughout the game, which completely lost his light! And not only lost his light, but also made him lose his face in this game.
Not only because LeBron James, who is a MVP this season, performed poorly in this game, but also because he made a malicious foul against Wu Dawei in the third quarter. This was also one of the reasons why people complained about LeBron James after the end of this game.
After all, that collision was indeed very vicious, at least in the eyes of many people. This should not be an action that should appear on the basketball court. It was completely against the person and the ball, and it was such a violent impact. If Wu Dawei was not strong in his body, the injured person might have to carry it on a stretcher!
On the night of the 21st, James went from his glory at the beginning to his disgrace after the game, and only more than two hours passed. After the game, almost all the spearheads were pointed directly at LeBron James, believing that his performance in this game was very barbaric and despicable!
Fortunately, Wu Dawei stood up quickly at that time, which made people feel a little relieved. If Wu Dawei was really injured by James, then I believe that even if the Miami Heat wins this round of the series, they will definitely be despised by people! As the culprit, LeBron James will definitely be criticized by thousands of people at that time!
So the only blessing is that Wu Dawei was not seriously injured at that time. However, what happened to Wu Dawei in the end was a question that people were concerned about after the game. In an interview, the team doctor said that Wu Dawei's injury needed further identification to achieve results. From the naked eye, it is difficult to see whether Wu Dawei was injured in this impact.
The final result of the game was a huge advantage of 122:85 and 37 points. The Cleveland Cavaliers played a huge victory at the Miami Heat's home court, the American Airlines Center. Although the Cleveland Cavaliers lost first and then won in the first two games of the Eastern Conference finals, the 1:1 situation was enough to make head coach Byron Scott feel extremely satisfied.
Because when the team came to Miami, Byron Scott admitted that 1:1 was very good. They didn't have to win two games in a row. After all, the Miami Heat are a powerful league leader.
Although the Cleveland Cavaliers swept the Miami Heat last season, the time has changed. Of course, we cannot look at a team that many people call the favorite to win the championship with old eyes.
Although Wu Dawei was replaced by head coach Byron Scott in the last three minutes of the third quarter of the game and never played again, the best player in this game was finally awarded to Wu Dawei.
Although the title of the best player in this game cannot be compared with the MVP in James' season where he has a trophy, it is obvious that those who watch this game will know very well who is the real MVP!
Wu Dawei played a game of his own, which can even be regarded as one of his representative works. All of this stems from the anger of Miami people for him.
However, after the game, Wu Dawei wiped out his anger before the game started. When he was surrounded by the media for an interview after the game, Wu Dawei's mood had become quite good at this time.
"Wu, please tell me how you feel about this game tonight!"
"Well, it's wonderful! It's a very wonderful night for me. My team won the game. We played a great basketball on the court, which is what we want to do in every game. We missed the victory in the last game, but fortunately we grasped this game tonight, which allowed us to go back to Cleveland with a relatively relaxed mood!"
"So Wu, let's talk about your opinion that the league has selected this season's MVP is LeBron James, not you. James was suppressed by you in the whole game tonight. Do you feel it's unfair?"
"To be honest, there is one thing. I used to want to get it, but I think the league has its own set of judgment criteria, and it has been going on for so many years, so I can only say it's a pity. But my career is still long, I haven't got it this year. There is next year and the year after... "
Wu Dawei was very calm at this time, facing the reporters' microphone and camera. He smiled and looked like a winner!
"So after this game, your total score with the Miami Heat will be tied, and the next two games will be back to Cleveland. What are you going to do? After all, the Quick Loan Center is your home court, and your winning rate at home is always amazingly high!"
"Yes, you said that the next two games will be played at our home speed loan center, so our next goal is to go all out! We will strive for victory in every game, and winning this series is our only goal!"
The second game of the East District final ended completely, late at night on May 21. Before the game started, all the attention to LeBron James and the Miami Heat began to shift to Wu Dawei and his Cleveland Cavaliers after the game ended.
People want to know what everyone thinks after this game. Of course, some people will pay attention to the Miami Heat and LeBron James. Because people also want to know what LeBron James feels about this after this game.
After all, tonight is the night when he was crowned MVP, and on this night he was not the protagonist, but he has completely become a supporting role or even a big villain. This is undoubtedly a fact that the Miami Heat and LeBron James feel extremely unacceptable.
The media have always liked to take advantage of the situation. Before the game started, they laughed at Wu Dawei for causing trouble for Wu Dawei. When the situation reversed after the game, they naturally had to point their finger at the losers of this game, the Miami Heat and LeBron James.
Are the successes and defeats the enemy? Although the Eastern Conference finals have just begun and there are at least 3 games left in the next round, the media naturally want to find some topics for people to drink.
The result of this game will obviously make the Cleveland media excited. Tonight, Brian Windhorst, a reporter from the Cleveland City Merchant, who also came to the American Airlines Center, was even more shocked!
Before this game began, he saw too many reports about Wu Dawei and the Cleveland Cavaliers' unfavorable reports. He also knew that before this game, the Cleveland Cavaliers suffered a lot of grievances from the Miami people.
So after the Cleveland Cavaliers beat the Miami Heat 37 points, Brian Windhorst naturally needs to find a place to vent.
"On the night of May 21, the Cleveland Cavaliers beat the Miami Heat 37 points! In the second game of the Eastern Conference Finals, Wu Dawei completely dominated this game that was extremely important for the Cleveland Cavaliers by his own strength. He made LeBron James, who was crowned MVP this night, faceless. He scored 48 points in the whole game, and James did not even have the qualification to compare! With the victory of this game, the Cleveland Cavaliers were able to recover the gap that had been lagging behind. Now, they have got a home advantage!"
This was the headline news on the homepage of the Cleveland City Businessman website that night. The Cleveland Cavaliers scored a 1:1 score in two away games. Although this situation is not the most ideal situation in the minds of Cleveland fans, it can also be within an acceptable range.
The only thing they couldn't accept was that the MVP trophy this season was not awarded to Wu Dawei, but to Miami Heat forward LeBron James. This is definitely not something that Cleveland fans can accept, because in their opinion, it is obvious that no matter from which perspective, James' performance this season is completely inferior to Wu Dawei.
But mvp was finally given to him, what the hell is this!
Cleveland fans were completely confused about this, and of course they did not have the ability to change the entire decided result. At most, they could only curse a few "league idiots" words. Then they got it done.
Fortunately, Wu Dawei's performance in the second game of the East District final on the evening of May 21st encouraged Cleveland fans and even applauded.
Not only because Wu Dawei performed very perfectly in this game, he also made James, who was crowned MVP in this game, look like MVP. This makes Cleveland fans unscrupulously laugh at James for having an alliance godfather...
The two Eastern Conference finals at the Miami Heat's home court, the American Airlines Center, were concluded. The next game will naturally be moved to the Cleveland Cavaliers' home court Speed Loan Center.
On May 24, the third game will only start again after three days of rest in the second game. In this way, the Cleveland Cavaliers and the Miami Heat will have a more abundant rest time after playing two games in 3 days. They can freely go from Miami to Cleveland, and then take a rest in Cleveland before continuing the next game.
The game on May 21 can be said to have completely changed all the situation in this round of the Eastern Conference finals. The Miami Heat's one-sided situation returned to balance after this game. In the eyes of most people, the two teams still had a 50-5 situation in this game. However, some fencemen began to turn to the Cleveland Cavaliers.
The reason why the situation of the two teams has changed so much is of course because of Wu Dawei's existence. This has also made Wu Dawei attract more and more attention. However, what Wu Dawei is most concerned about now is not his outstanding performance in the second game, nor how he will perform in the upcoming third game; it is Wu Dawei's injury problem.
Although LeBron James' high-altitude collision against Wu Dawei at the three-point line did not allow Wu Dawei to leave the court directly. Wu Dawei stood up again and completed the next free throw, but he was replaced by head coach Byron Scott.
Although he did not leave the bench after the game, but just sat on the bench and received a few questions from the team doctor, he kept watching the entire game. However, people were still very concerned about Wu Dawei, because the team doctor's injury after the game still needs to be observed. People want to know whether Wu Dawei was injured in this collision and whether he would miss the next third East District final!
This series of issues are the focus of fans' attention. Especially the issues that Cleveland and Chinese domestic fans are most concerned about. After all, Wu Dawei is their favorite. The Cleveland Cavaliers, the Chinese men's national basketball team, in the next Eastern Conference finals, even the finals and the Olympics, are all hoping that Wu Dawei can lead the team forward along the wind and waves...
