338. The third battle
When the finals of this season moved to Cleveland, it seemed that the situation in the entire finals also began to turn from Oklahoma to Cleveland.
The Cavaliers not only ushered in a home game, but also ushered in a situation that was very favorable for them. They played at home and had high morale. In this game on the evening of the 14th, it seemed that all the weather vanes pointed to the Cleveland Cavaliers.
Two days after the Cavaliers returned to Cleveland, they finally had their first finals game at home. Before that, they tied with the Oklahoma City Thunder, and tonight they were very confident to break the original balance between the two sides and become the leading side.
Of course, the Clevelanders were extremely happy about the arrival of this day. Wu Dawei got a five-double data at the home Ford Center of the Oklahoma City Thunder, which really made them feel excited, but it still made them feel some regrets many times, that is, they did not witness it with their own eyes.
And tonight, they will have such an opportunity. Although everyone knows very well that the five-double data does not appear as soon as they appear. Perhaps Wu Dawei can only get it once in his entire career in his life, but at this time, Cleveland fans still hold a glimmer of hope.
After all, who would not want to witness the birth of a legend with his own eyes?
That shocking audio-visual feeling is not comparable to hearing news from news reports.
After the game on June 11, the situation of the two teams naturally changed drastically. The pre-match situation of this game is also very good for the Cleveland Cavaliers who play at home.
After a period of bumpy tide, the fencemen once again turned to the Cleveland Cavaliers in this game tonight.
Everyone knows what it is. Wu Dawei's five-double data not only makes him famous, but has become the hottest basketball star nowadays. At the same time, it also makes people make an obvious judgment between the Cavaliers and the Thunder.
Now, except for the Oklahoma City Thunder, almost everyone thinks that the Cleveland Cavaliers are more incest. The reason is also very simple, that is, there is "five-double Mr. Wu Dawei in their lineup!
"I think what everyone is most interested in now is definitely not the final outcome of this game, but what kind of performance our "Five-Double Mr. Wu Dawei can perform in this game tonight!"
Before the game started, Kenny Smith, a commentator at TNT TV station, who had already explained almost the entire playoffs, told the things that people were most interested in at this time.
Indeed, before this game begins, people are no longer just talking about Wu Dawei's five-double data in the second game of the finals. People are also very curious and enthusiastic about what kind of performance he will perform in the next third game.
In the last game, Wu Dawei won five pairs, which can be said to be the strongest personal performance in basketball. Even if Wu Dawei himself wants to surpass such a performance, it will be very difficult.
Therefore, people's theoretical expectations for Wu Dawei are of course still hoped that he could get a five-double again. If he could score five-double in two consecutive games in the finals, it would be not only the Cleveland Cavaliers' two consecutive wins, but Wu Dawei really has the capital to challenge Michael Jordan now.
However, such an expectation is a bit difficult. Therefore, people's expectations for Wu Dawei in this game will certainly not be so high, but most people believe that Wu Dawei is more than enough to get a triple-double.
"Maybe it will be another five-double performance!" Charles Barkley said from the side. Regarding this game, whether it is the prospect of Cliff's Cavaliers or Wu Dawei's performance, Charles Barkley is very optimistic.
Because in his opinion, Wu Dawei's performance in the second game must have had an indelible impact on the young Oklahoma City Thunder. The young players' ability to withstand is definitely not as strong as that of old players. Even if they are a group of talented superstars, after all, young people always have to pay some tuition.
So in Barkley's opinion, as long as the Cleveland Cavaliers and Wu Dawei perform normally in this game, there is no problem in winning the game. Naturally, when there is no problem in the game, people will naturally speculate more about what the hottest Wu Dawei will perform after a great solo show.
Is it a direct fall to the trough, or a continuation of the high chaos?
Most people believe that it will be the latter. At least the Cleveland Cavaliers fans who came to the Speed Loan Center to watch the third game of the finals tonight believe that everyone is waiting for the arrival of this game at this time.
Soon, when the Oklahoma City Thunder players came out of the player's lane, what they received was not the most hysterical cheers like the previous two games, but a boundless boo.
This made the Oklahoma City Thunder, who had been depressed before the start of this game, look much more dull after seeing this scene. The faces of Cleveland fans who were frightened and verbally whispering at them made them feel a little uneasy in their hearts.
Russell Westbrook could never forget the scene that happened in the last two minutes of the second game. The scene where he was blocked by Wu Dawei and was stolen again, just like a TV replay, appeared in his mind over and over again, and he couldn't get rid of it.
Although he tried hard to forget all this, the lingering scene was like a shadow, which made him unable to let go. There was only a short two minutes between the second and third games. For Russell Westbrook, such time was certainly not enough for him to recover.
As a basketball player who has been praised by people since childhood as a genius, Westbrook became famous at a young age. Since he began to embark on the path of basketball, he has never experienced too much setbacks. Every opponent he faces eventually became his defeated player. Even if he entered the NBA league, Westbrook only took a very short time to grow from a young rookie to a superstar who stands alone!
Almost on the basketball road, Westbrook has never encountered anything he can't solve or any enemy he can't defeat. He has never been able to win. In his world, he has only become the opponent of his defeated opponents, and has not become an insurmountable mountain.
However, in the finals on the evening of June 11, it overturned all his previous worldviews. He lost completely. Wu Dawei's ability demonstrated from the beginning made Westbrook very dissatisfied, especially after being blocked by Wu Dawei for two attacks, Westbrook wanted to find an opportunity to regain his face from Wu Dawei.
But in the end, not only did he not recover his lost face, but he also suffered a bigger blow. It was he who was blocked and stolen in that offensive round. It was how Wu Dawei finally achieved the supreme feat of five doubles at the last moment of the game!
That scene became a shadow that Westbrook could never be erased. At this moment, seeing the hideous face of the Clevelander, the young point guard's mind was blank, and the only thing that still had the picture was the scene at the last moment of the second game.
Compared to Russell Westbrook and Kevin Durant, who were even a little disheartened, the blows suffered by Russell Westbrook and Kevin Durant were naturally not that big, but the depression and frustration were also a bit lingering in his heart at this time.
However, compared to Westbrook, Durant has not been affected so much. Although this game is difficult for the Oklahoma City Thunder. However, Kevin Durant still hopes to help the team win the game in this game.
In addition to some depressed mood, Kevin Durant had the most emotions in his heart at this time, and naturally he was revenge!
The Cleveland Cavaliers rely on Wu Dawei's performance. They won a game at the Ford Center, the home court of the Oklahoma City Thunder; and tonight, Kevin Durant's goal is naturally to help the Oklahoma City Thunder win a game at the home court of the Cleveland Cavaliers, help the team regain the lead!
He wants to come back for all the things he lost a few days ago in this game!
Kevin Durant swears silently in his heart, but at this moment he suddenly heard a cheer. He looked up and found that the Clevelander's hideous face had disappeared. Instead, he was smiling.
Of course, Durant would not be self-indulgent to think that the Clevelanders were showing kindness to him. He soon discovered the reason for the change of the Clevelanders. The Cleveland Cavaliers players entered the court at this time, and the Cleveland fans were naturally cheering for them.
Kevin Durant almost immediately saw Wu Dawei entering the court with the team. He couldn't help but not pay attention, because Wu Dawei became the focus of the whole game as soon as he entered the court.
A close-up shot was also given on the big screen. When DJ shouted Wu Dawei's name on the scene, the entire Quick Loan Center seemed to be a volcano boiling. Everyone screamed hysterically at this time, just because the name DJ shouted now was Wu Dawei, who made Clevelanders feel proud.
Wu Dawei appeared in front of everyone, and all the spotlights shone on him at this time. Kevin Durant and Russell Westbrook, who were the focus of the audience, became completely supporting roles. At this time, no press conference held the camera at them, because everyone's film was used on Wu Dawei.
As a person who has been talking enthusiastically around the world in recent days, Wu Dawei's appearance naturally needs to be matched with enough attention. Compared with the admiration in the eyes of Clevelanders, when Wu Dawei walked onto the stadium, he saw Kevin Durant and Russell Westbrook who were also standing on the stadium, except for seeing angry emotions in the sharp eyes of the two people, he had almost no friendship.
This is the opponent! Wu Dawei can be said to have no concern about Kevin Durant's hostile gaze. Because in the Eastern Conference finals with the Miami Heat that ended before, Wu Dawei had long been used to it. LeBron James's conflict with him was deeper, and James's gaze when he looked at him was naturally even more unfriendly.
Wu Dawei didn't know why his rise made so many stars feel uncomfortable. Perhaps it was because he was just an unknown person before, but suddenly he became a superstar who could stand shoulder to shoulder with them or even surpass them. In addition to the slightest discomfort, there was also some imbalance in his heart.
However, Wu Dawei would not care what they were thinking. He only knew that he was getting closer and closer to the first championship trophy in his career!
Although the total score is currently 1:1, the Cavaliers have three home games next. With their current state, it is very difficult not to gain a leading advantage!
After the players on both sides completed the entrance ceremony, the game will naturally officially begin. The entire Speed Loan Center is always Wu Dawei's home court. There is no doubt that the Oklahoma City Thunder players will feel the pressure.
For the Cleveland Cavaliers players, this atmosphere will only make them more excited. Before the game is approaching, the atmosphere on the players' seats of both teams also represents the completely different moods of the two teams at this time.
"Go up and kill them, the Oklahomans are the only breath left! Remember what we said before this game? Guys!"
Byron Scott finally said to the players before the game started: "We are going to win three games in a row!"
"Get out of three cities in a row!"
Everyone shouted with Scott in unison, and the shouting was shocking for a moment; on the other hand, the atmosphere seemed more dull. Almost no one had a smile on his expression, and everyone seemed very serious.
From the beginning of this game, the situation between the two teams was completely different! (To be continued, please search for Astronomy, novels are better, updated and faster!
