The gap has been hovering between three and five points, a gap that is not only worrying the San Antonio Spurs, but also impatience for the Cleveland Cavaliers.
Both sides were extremely unhappy with such a gap, but for most of the fourth quarter of the game, such a score gap was the score gap between the two sides.
This is a result that is difficult for both sides to be satisfied with, and such an anxious situation is of course not good for the Cleveland Cavaliers, who are behind at home.
They want to overtake the scoreline, but now, obviously, that is going to get in the way of their ideas; So at this point, for the Cleveland Cavaliers, it's only natural that they're trying to change.
Because such a stalemate has been going on for a long time in the fourth quarter of the game, it makes them feel uncomfortable.
Of course, this is not the result they want, so at this time, for the Cleveland Cavaliers, they will not be satisfied with the status quo.
They're going to take the lead before the end of the game, which is the wish of all the Cleveland Cavaliers players, and it's also the expectation of the Cleveland fans who come to the Quickloan Center tonight.
As the opponent of the Cleveland Cavaliers, the pressure on the San Antonio Spurs at this time is no less than that of the Cleveland Cavaliers.
(
After all, they had a 17-point lead before, but since the second half of the game, they have gradually lost that huge lead.
Because the Cleveland Cavaliers were frantically chasing the momentum of the game, they were a little at a loss; Fortunately, such a situation was slightly contained in the fourth quarter of the game.
Although entering the fourth quarter of the game, the San Antonio Spurs are still being chased by the Cleveland Cavaliers.
But at least for now, they're still holding on to the basketball court, so while they're just as unhappy with the status quo as the Cleveland Cavaliers; But at least that would be in their favour for a win in tonight's game.
So at this time, compared to the Cleveland Cavaliers, the San Antonio Spurs are still relatively easy to accept the status quo.
However, San Antonio Spurs head coach Popovich is also hoping to try to change at this time. Because he is also unwilling to be only a little ahead.
Of course, winning a match by 1 point is no different from winning a match by 10 points; But, at least in the game, a 10-point lead would have made Popovich less worried.
It's not like now, although they are ahead, they are always worried about the team's situation, because no one knows if the Cleveland Cavaliers will play an even more crazy offensive table that catches people off guard in the next game?!
So instead of worrying about it, it is better to open up the gap in the score more, which is Popovich's idea at this time; But just like the shape on the basketball court now, the San Antonio Spurs themselves were chased after when the two sides were anxious together. Naturally, it is more difficult for them to reopen the gap between the scores at this time.
This is an awkward place for the San Antonio Spurs at this time, although they are the leader on the basketball court, they are the more passive side on the basketball court, which makes it even more difficult for them to pull away at this time.
After all, they are now under the frantic offensive of the Cleveland Cavaliers, and it is already a very remarkable thing that they are not completely overtaken by their opponents.
So in fact, as the head coach of the San Antonio Spurs, Popovich shouldn't ask for anything more; But at this point, as the head coach of the San Antonio Spurs, Popovich certainly can't rest on his laurels.
After all, the San Antonio Spurs are in a very passive situation on the court. This is the last thing Popovich can accept.
Because he had led so much before, he naturally couldn't accept the wolf bèi who was chased by his opponent at this time.
However, it is clear that before the game is over, the San Antonio Spurs will play the rest of the game. That's definitely going to happen.
Even if he himself felt very unhappy about this, it was obvious that such a situation could not be avoided at this time.
After all, for the San Antonio Spurs, they have been in such a disadvantageous situation since the start of the second half.
So at this time for the San Antonions. They could only continue to hold on, and not be breached by the Cleveland Cavaliers so easily.
And for the Cleveland Cavaliers, now they're not just in a hurry. At the same time, I also hope to be able to complete the comeback in the next game.
After all, no matter what, they are talking about the score gap to only 3 to 5 points, and if they can work harder, maybe they can completely erase the lead of the San Antonio Spurs.
Everyone was looking forward to this moment, after all, the people who came to the Quick Loan Center tonight were Cleveland fans who came to support the Cleveland Cavaliers.
What they certainly want to see the Cleveland Cavaliers continue to win in the Finals is not to see the San Antonio Spurs walk away from their home stadium with a game win.
These are two very different results, and the latter is clearly not going to be accepted by Cleveland Cavaliers fans.
So at this point, no matter how anxious the situation is, the Cleveland Cavaliers want to break it as quickly as possible.
After all, they are on a strong momentum right now, and their opponents, the San Antonio Spurs, have been chased by them.
Now, they just need one last push and if they do, then they can be the ones to win the game tonight.
The Cleveland Cavaliers were looking forward to this, but the shape on the basketball court at this point was clearly not what they wanted to see.
In the end, when there were a few points left, the Cleveland Cavaliers were always tied up by their opponents, so they couldn't really close the score.
And the time of the game is gradually passing in such an entangled move, naturally. In such a situation, the Cleveland Cavaliers will certainly feel anxious.
Because they watched the time pass by in the game, they knew that there were not many opportunities left for them, so of course they were even more reluctant to accept the status quo.
They want to complete the comeback drama of the Jedi counterattack, the status quo, and this last breath is time to spit out.
With two minutes left in the game, the score was 102-99 between the two sides, and the Cleveland Cavaliers still trailed the San Antonio Spurs by three points.
And at this time, the San Antonio Spurs still have the ball in their hands, which means that they can once again stretch the gap to 5 points or more in the next attack.
It's certainly not what the Cleveland Cavaliers want to see. But at this time, they can't avoid seeing such a situation.
Wu Dawei has 19 points and 12 assists in this game tonight, and although he didn't score much tonight, at least he used his threat to help his teammates and create more scoring opportunities for them.
This is also a very rare thing, so at this time, this is also an important reason why the Cleveland Cavaliers can still bite the score at this time.
If it weren't for Wu Dawei's cousin, then the Cleveland Cavaliers might have been completely pulled apart by the San Antonio Spurs at this time; Therefore, it can be said that Wu Dawei's performance at this time is a great achievement.
Without his cousin, the Cleveland Cavaliers would not have been able to hold the score at this point. However, Wu Dawei still feels dissatisfied with his appearance.
Because his Cleveland Cavaliers are still the lagging side on the basketball court at this time, not the leading side, which is completely unacceptable to him.
Because in this game tonight. The Cleveland Cavaliers have never been ahead, which is a far cry from what they expected before this game began.
So at this time, for Wu Dawei, who is the core and leader of the Cleveland Cavaliers, of course, he can't bear such a thing at all.
Nature. He must just feel very dissatisfied with himself at the heart of the team; Although after the start of the second half of the game, Wu Dawei did regain some of his self, but this did not help the Cleveland Cavaliers playing at home. In the second half of the game, the situation was completely turned back.
Now, they are still three points behind, and there are only two minutes left in the next game, if they can't play a good game in those two minutes, then maybe the Cleveland Cavaliers will really be the complete loser in this game tonight.
Of course, he didn't want such a situation to happen, so at this time, for Wu Dawei, he would definitely feel very dissatisfied with himself.
And in the next defense, Wu Dawei will of course hope that he can perform better and show his posture as the league's best defensive player this season.
This is certainly important for the Cleveland Cavaliers, who have been hovering between 3 and 5 points for too long.
Therefore, with little time left, if you want to break the deadlock and really win the game tonight for the team, then it is very important to play a better game in the next defense.
Wu Dawei understands one thing very well, but the only thing that bothers him is that when he comes to the defensive end, Wu Dawei is responsible for defending Kaowai. Leonard will always retreat to near the touchline, which makes it more difficult for Wu to get involved in the defense.
Of course, this will make Wu Dawei feel a little distressed, but at this time, for Wu Dawei, of course, he needs to overcome such a difficulty.
For the Cleveland Cavaliers, after all. If they can defend the opponent's next attack on the basket, they will have a chance to chase the score back in the next game.
After all, time is running out for the Cleveland Cavaliers right now, so they can't afford to let the San Antonio Spurs score endlessly like they did on the defensive end before.
In this way, it will not do any good to the Cleveland Cavaliers' plan to turn the tables tonight.
So although after returning to half-time, Wu Dawei was taken by Kawai. Leonardo dragged him to the touchline, but he was always watching the dynamics at the top of the three-point arc.
Tony. Parker was also the San Antonio Spurs' ball-handler on the basketball court at this time. So, of course, he's more used to attacking from the top of the arc.
And Wu Dawei's sideline is too big a gap with him, so at this time, for Wu Dawei, he will naturally feel very uncomfortable.
He wanted to be involved in the Cleveland Cavaliers' defense, but being pulled to the sideline made it difficult for Wu to get involved in the defense at this time.
And Tony. Parker has played Guò too many times in this game tonight to Tim. Duncan scored between the pick-and-rolls.
This can be said to be a very sure way for the San Antonio Spurs to attack in this game tonight.
So at this time, when the Cleveland people saw Tim. Duncan & Tony. Once again, Parker launched a pick-and-roll attack from the high post. The Clevelands, of course, couldn't help but get worried.
Because in this game tonight, the Cleveland Cavaliers have basically never been able to stop the opponent from scoring in such a way.
So at this time, when people see Tony. Once again, Parker is leaning on Tim. Duncan's high pick-and-roll, trying to hit the damage in the paint area. The Cleveland people couldn't help but scream.
Because Tim. Duncan's thick pick-and-roll provided him with another block in the high post for him. After Irving's follow-up, Tony. Parker suddenly got a very calm breakthrough opportunity!
He's unguarded!
Everyone was staring at Tony at this point. Parker, he's so fast to break through the interior that it doesn't seem like anyone can defend him anymore.
He rushed straight into the paint zone. At this time, the Cleveland Cavaliers' interior line did not have anyone to rush up to make up for the defense. Vallejo has been replaced by Diego. Split pulled away. The paint area is empty!
Looks Tony. Parker is about to help the San Antonio Spurs on the road once again pull the score back, which is of course very bad news for the Cleveland Cavaliers.
And yet right in Tony. The moment Parker jumped up in the paint area of the Cleveland Cavaliers, a figure suddenly appeared in the sky above the paint area!
It's Wu Dawei!
Wu Dawei, who came from the flank, abandoned Kaowai, who was originally in charge of defending himself. Leonard, at this point, rushed into the paint zone.
It's a surprising complement, even if it's Tony. Parker also didn't expect that Wu Dawei would take Kawai at this time. Leonardo gave up completely and turned to defend him.
But now for Tony. For Parker, it was too late to wake up, because he was completely unable to make any other choice.
Wu Dawei's whole body is covering him, Tony. Parker wants to go and pass the ball to Kowaii on the outside. Leonardo, but there is no way.
So, he could only choose to force his shot, but the moment he threw the abandonment into the basket, he was slapped out by Wu Dawei!
"It's covered!"
Charles on the sidelines. Barkley screamed at this time, and everyone understood how important this defense was for the Cleveland Cavaliers, who were playing at home in this game tonight.
When David Wu will Tony. After Parker's attack was fanned, the Cleveland Cavaliers, who were playing at home, regained possession.
Before on the defensive end because of Tim. Duncan's pick-and-roll was blocked by Tony. Parker left Carey behind. Owen picked up the ball that was fanned out by Wu Dawei at this time!
The Cleveland Cavaliers launched a comeback in a split second, and this was a great opportunity!
For the Cleveland Cavaliers, they are now only three points behind, and if they can get the ball into the basket in this counterattack, then they will be able to further narrow the score or even equalize it at this time!
Carey with the ball. Irving took on the load at this point, and his speed in the fast break was insane, and the San Antonio Spurs players couldn't keep up with him. Owen is leading the way in the front court!
He got into the paint, then dodged his opponent's block with a very lightweight folding layup, and then he loved the ball and threw it in!
102 to 101!
It's only 1 point away! (To be continued......) I1292
