'They have a better offense, we're doing a decent job defensively, but we still need to play to our strengths.

After the game, Cavaliers head coach Mike Brown said.

At the same time, Mike Brown praised the Warriors' excellent teamwork, "They do a really good job of passing the ball, they share the ball well from the outside, the Warriors are a team that has been through the Finals, they have experience ahead of us, we still need to make some changes." ”

Mike Brown vaguely excused the rookie players of the Cavaliers, after all, the Cavaliers players are all rookies who have never played in the Finals.

With the loss to the Warriors on the road, everyone thought the Cavaliers paid their youngsters.

And when the Cavaliers' players adjust to the Finals, there should be a strong rebound.

The media in the United States is still full of confidence in the Cavaliers, once the Cavaliers are in shape, then their combat power will be very terrible, the last round against the Pistons, the first two losses and then four consecutive games, fully proved this.

The Warriors, for their part, remained a regular silence after the G1 game.

With only one day off, the G2 battle will take place on the evening of the third day, when the San Francisco area has entered its busiest month of the year.

The streets and alleys are filled with tourists from all over the world, with different skin tones playing and spending on the same land.

San Francisco, a shining jewel on the West Coast, has the charm of a big city like Los Angeles in June.

High-rises, sun, coast, sandy beach.

Pull back the curtains and you'll be able to embrace this welcoming city.

Before you know it, the playoffs have been played for a month and a half, and the intensity of the playoffs is even higher, and although the rest has become longer, the players will still feel a little tired.

But the spirit is high, and every player is working hard to achieve the goal of winning the championship.

The next afternoon, in the Oracle Arena, the Warriors conducted a G2 preparation camp.

Liu Qiying from the imperial court came to the scene again, got the warrior pass, and walked into the stadium to interview Yang Di when the preparation was about to end.

I haven't seen her for a while, Liu Qiying has matured a lot, and her smile is still a signature crescent smile, the microphone was handed to Yang Di's mouth, Shi Shiran sat down, and suddenly there was a burst of fragrance.

"What are you asking today, big beauty."

Yang Di was also very familiar with her, smiled and teased, and reached out to shake her gently.

"Let's talk about it, it's mainly about some of the voices outside the stadium during the finals, you know, in addition to the performance of the stars on the field, it's actually very related to the off-field life of the players."

"I'm not living off the field, it's normal training at best, right? Something that every NBA player goes through. ”

"That's not every NBA player who has a chance to play in the NBA Finals, right?"

Liu Qiying's opening remarks made Yang Di very happy, laughed, noncommittal.

Subsequently, after the cameraman finished adjusting, Liu Qiying officially began to ask Yang Di questions.

"How long does it usually take to train on a regular basis, and what happens to the playoffs?"

"Usually the training volume will be higher, generally if it is a rest day training, we may have to train for 3 to 5 hours, but when it comes to the finals, when preparing for the finals, the training volume will be relatively smaller, after all, we have to maintain sufficient physical strength to cope with the competition with high competitiveness."

Yang Di paused, Liu Qiying looked at him with wide eyes, and motioned for him to continue.

He thought for a moment, and then continued: "Like in the playoffs, we will do some targeted tactical training, and in the regular season, the daily training on weekdays also includes quality development, that is, physical fitness development, strength, speed, and bounce will have very high-intensity training. ”

"How long is playoff training?"

"If you prepare for training, it usually won't take more than 2 hours, in fact, it's just to concentrate and let us find out how you feel. Just like exams, every time there is a big exam, there will always be a lot of questions, generally just do some previous mistakes, find the feeling, and the effort should be spent on ordinary times. ”

"Do you have any plans after the finals?"

"What's the plan?" Yang Di was stunned, and then suddenly remembered the agreement with Nancy, "Maybe go to some places to take a vacation to rest and rest, I played for a season, and I am still tired." By the way, you may participate in some street events, but you will not participate in regular events. ”

Liu Qiying immediately understood the meaning of what Yang Di said, she smiled, and then continued to ask: "What kind of events will the street events be?" ”

"I haven't thought about this yet, for example, some local leagues in Los Angeles and San Francisco, it won't be too long, usually it will end in a week, and then the intensity will not be too high."

Liu Qiying smiled, nodded frequently, interacted with Yang Di, and then asked some off-court questions, generally speaking, it was a bit of a match with the game, but it was not all about the content of the game, and a simple interview was conducted around Yang Di.

.......

On June 10, the two sides played the G2 match.

The Cavaliers are back in action to challenge the Warriors at Oracle Arena.

Everyone is looking forward to the Cavaliers regrouping and having another big game with the Warriors in Golden State, the Warriors are naturally standing on a high ground, and James is more like a lone hero.

The Pistons are the behemoths that James picked off before, and the Warriors are the ultimate big demons.

The imaginative American media dubbed James the "Little Emperor" and regarded the entire Warriors as villains.

James played very actively at the beginning of the game, first causing Yang Di to foul on the inside line, and then on the basis of Yang Di's foul and the decline in the deterrence of the penalty area, he continued to impact the Warriors' interior line, causing a lot of trouble to the Warriors.

But in this game, the Warriors were on the outside, and Ray Allen shot 4 of 4 from three-point range in the first quarter, helping the Warriors lead the Cavaliers by 7 points at 31-24.

Ray Allen was very hot from three-point range, shooting 7-of-8 from the half, and had already scored 25 points.

By this time, he had broken the record for three-pointers in the Finals half.

The previous NBA Finals half-court three-point shooting record was held by Michael Jordan, who hit six three-pointers in the first half of the 1992 Chicago Bulls and Portland Trail Blazers Finals; Rockets forward Kenny Smith also hit six three-pointers in the opening game of the 1995 Finals against the Orlando Magic.

The record for a single game was seven three-pointers, set by Pippen in Game 3 of the 1997 Finals and Rockets champion shooter Kenny Smith in Game 1995.

At halftime, the Warriors had a 13-point lead over the Cavaliers at 61-48, with Ray Allen taking the main credit.

Ray Allen fell back in the second half, and the Cavaliers defended tightly, so he made a total of 3 shots in the second half, hitting 1 and 8 of 11 three-pointers in the game.

Ray Allen contained a lot of defensive focus on the outside, and Yang Di gave what he wanted on the inside, scoring a high score of 17 points in a single quarter in the final quarter, which was the icing on the cake for the Warriors.

In the end, Ray Allen scored 32 points to lead the Warriors to a 114-100 victory over the Cavaliers and win the G2 game.
