593. Wu Dawei, who could not be defended
For the Cleveland Cavaliers, they can be said to be bound to win this game tonight, and as their opponent in this game this night, the San Antonio Spurs will not let the Cleveland Cavaliers win this game this night so easily.
After all, they also wanted to get off to a good start, and when the players from both sides stepped onto the basketball court, the arena naturally erupted in loud cheers, for the Cleveland Cavaliers, of course.
After all, Cleveland Cavaliers fans are also very much looking forward to the team's triumph of winning three consecutive championships, so at this time, of course, they will spare no effort to cheer for the Cleveland Cavaliers.
After all, this is the Cleveland Cavaliers' first battle in the Finals of the season, and of course it will be very crucial for them, and if they can win the first game, you will certainly be very helpful to the Cleveland Cavaliers' prospects in this series of Finals.
And that's what the Cleveland Cavaliers need most, as they've won all 12 games in the previous playoffs, so they don't want that momentum to be interrupted at this point.
They need to keep going, and for the Cleveland Cavaliers, tonight will be the night of their 13th consecutive game of the season.
David Wu walked onto the court, Tim. Duncan came over and said hello to him. Although the two have played each other in the finals last season, the relationship between the two is not very bad.
Obviously, whether it's Wu Dawei or Tim. Duncan, didn't make any enemies because of this.
"You've done a great job. Wu, I've watched your game, so I'm going to do it lightly tonight! ”
Tim. Duncan said this to Wu Dawei, and Wu Dawei laughed at this.
"As long as you raise your hands and surrender first."
"Come on, haha!"
Tim. Duncan waved his hand, and the two men looked at each other and smiled. It doesn't look like a pair of mortal enemies about to fight each other on the battlefield, but like old friends who haven't seen each other in years.
They just said hello to each other on the basketball court. It's not like you're going through some existential moment.
"It looks like David Wu and Tim. Duncan was still in a good mood. ”
Charles Brown, sitting in front of the commentary seat. Barkley also noticed this, and he said thoughtfully. "It looks like they're both relaxed."
"After all, they're all veterans who have played many finals."
Kenny. Smith continued, while Ernie. Johnson said, "Tim. Duncan could have said that, but Wu ......"
"That's right, Wu has done something that many superstars in the history of the league can't do!"
"Even when Michael was his age. You can't even touch a champion! ”
In Charles. In Barkley's hysterical praise for Wu Dawei, such a long-awaited game is finally about to kick off.
The referee officiating this match is bald Joe. Crawford, talking about him and Tim. There is still a bad relationship between Duncan.
Of course, now is not the time for a child's affection, Joe. When Crawford walked onto the court, Dwight. Howard & Thiago. Split was already standing in the center circle and ready to jump the ball.
Everybody wants to win the opening jump, just as everyone wants to win the opening round of the Finals series.
A good omen is far more useful than a bad one, especially for the San Antonio Spurs, who are bound to be underdogs in the Finals. Even more so.
They need to win even more, and they also want the opening goal to fall into their arms, and for the Cleveland Cavaliers. Of course, they also hope to take the lead from the start.
After all, they've been waiting for this game for a long time, and the Cleveland Cavaliers are definitely more prepared than the San Antonio Spurs.
Naturally, their expectations for this game will be a little higher, and Dwight will be a little more excited. Howard also lived up to expectations at this time, helping the Cleveland Cavaliers fight for the first ball of the opening game.
This is certainly important. For the Cleveland Cavaliers, they were given the opportunity to attack first. Carey. Irving was still the playmaker for tonight, and he dribbled through the half.
Although they took the lead in gaining the ball, it was clear that the Cleveland Cavaliers were not in a hurry, and this was in the Finals, and there was no room for mistakes.
And they were originally the dominant side, so at this time, the Cleveland Cavaliers have no need to rush.
Against the San Antonio Spurs, who are physically and mentally more exhausted than themselves, the Cleveland Cavaliers can certainly be patient.
Carey. Owen held the ball past half and then faced Stallone's Italian "bastard" Marco. Belinelli ......
He tried to break through the latter, but at this point Mark . Belinelli, however, was extremely cautious, and he was far from Kerry. Owen is relatively far away, which allows him to give himself time to react even if he is shaken at that time.
Carey. Irving didn't want to try shooting from beyond the three-point line in the opening game, so he was very interested in Mark. Belinelli was in such a position, he seemed a little helpless, so he still chose to put the ball in the hands of Wu Dawei.
And the moment the ball came into Wu Dawei's hands, the entire quick loan center resounded with extremely violent cheers, for Cleveland Cavaliers fans, Wu Dawei is undoubtedly synonymous with the current team.
The ball is in his hands, and it can be said that the most reassuring thing for Cleveland fans is to feel reassuring.
And Charles. Barkley also shouted from the sidelines: "The Cleveland Cavaliers still chose to give the ball to Wu Dawei." This is what they have always done now, and it is obvious that the dependence on Wu Dawei has great disadvantages for the Cleveland Cavaliers, in case Wu Dawei is not in good shape one day. They are going to be in a dangerous situation, but many people have thought that way before, and until Wu Dawei has barely played any abnormal performances this season, people have known that it is foolish to pin their hopes on Wu Dawei's abnormal performance. ”
As the most famous Wu Chui of the league, Charles. Barkley, of course, will be at this point in full effect.
At this time, when Wu Dawei held the ball, it was indeed on the sidelines and on the court that the atmosphere suddenly became tense.
It's clear that it's not just Cleveland fans who have a lot of faith in Wu. As the opponent of the Cleveland Cavaliers, the San Antonio Spurs will become much more cautious after seeing Wu Dawei holding the ball.
Because for them. David Wu is the top scorer for the Cleveland Cavaliers, and he's shooting over 50 percent from the field in the playoffs this season!
Under the watchful eye of others, Wu Dawei was still able to play such an anti-heaven efficiency, and this scene made countless people feel extremely shocked.
So at this time. When Wu Dawei held the ball, the nervousness of the San Antonio Spurs was understandable.
Kaovai. Leonard is undoubtedly the most nervous San Antonio Spurs player at the moment, as he is directly opposite Wu Dawei.
Although it has been a year later, at this time, Kaovai. Leonard still can't forget the round of finals a year ago.
It was the first time he had entered such a big stage as a rookie, and Wu Dawei gave him a slap in the face; That feeling is still felt in Covay today. Leonard's memory is still fresh in his mind.
And he also knew that Wu Dawei had become even better and more terrifying this season. Leonard's progress is also obvious to all, but it seems that it is a little small in front of Wu Dawei.
So at this time. For Couwai. In Leonard's case, the pressure on him is certainly the greatest. But no matter what, he stood in front of Wu Dawei at this time. Kaovai. Leonard had to face it.
"Do what you can, Kaovai! No matter what you face, don't retreat! ”
The young 21-year-old swingman resounded in his mind the words and instructions of coach Popovich before the game began.
He knows what the manager expects from him, and he knows he has a lot of responsibility to play in tonight's game.
So at this time, how could he retreat. Even if Wu Dawei is standing in front of him, he is already famous, and even at the age of 26, he can compare with the best and top stars in the history of the league.
He was as insignificant as grit in front of him. But anyway, Kauvai. Leonard also has to be brave to face it.
42 points, 9 rebounds, 9 assists, 4 steals and 3 blocks. Kaovai. Leonard tried to put those numbers behind him, and at this point, he tried to keep all his attention focused on defending Wu Dawei. This is the most important thing for him at the moment, so at this time, Leonard is naturally preoccupied with standing in front of Wu Dawei.
In order to be able to defend Wu Dawei's attack for the San Antonio Spurs in the opening game, he hopes to help the San Antonio Spurs take the lead in the opening game, so now defending Wu Dawei's attack is the most important thing.
And Wu Dawei, who is now holding the ball, of course, has only one thought in his mind at this time, you are in this game tonight, for the Cleveland Cavaliers to get off to a good start.
It was the most important thing on his mind at the moment, even with Kaulwai standing in front of him. Leonard was engrossed, but Wu Dawei didn't care at all.
Of course, he will be cautious about the opponent's defense, because the opponent will definitely defend himself strictly, but in the past three rounds of the series of playoffs, Wu Dawei has encountered such a key marking.
Even if it's LeBron. James' defense couldn't contain Wu's momentum. Not to mention the much younger Kaovai. Leonard.
It's not the first time the two have played against each other, but every time in the process of fighting, it is Wu Dawei who wins the game. The personal confrontation between the two was also won by Wu Dawei.
So for Wu Dawei, he doesn't have any fear and worry in it.
He stood outside the three-point line, thinking about how to finish the first offense of the opening game tonight.
Everyone was looking forward to seeing how Wu Dawei would complete the attack, and he didn't make the fans wait too long.
Picked up Carey. After Owen's pass, Wu Dawei made some tentative attempts, he held the ball and tried to move to the left, but Leonard's lateral speed was also extremely fast.
This makes it impossible for Wu Dawei to rely on lateral dribbling movements to shake off the opponent's defense. But Wu Dawei finally got rid of Kaovai. Leonard's defense.
Because in the process of lateral movement, Kauvai. Leonard slammed his head straight into a wall all at once. Because his spirit was so focused on Wu Dawei's body, he lost his attention behind him.
Dwight. Howard had already mentioned that the high position was ready to wait, and when this scene happened, the entire quick loan center resounded with extremely violent cheers at this time.
For Cleveland Cavaliers fans. Seeing Wu Dawei with the help of Dwight. Howard's pick-and-roll shakes off the opponent's defense, and this scene has become commonplace for them.
But at this time, they still screamed, because this kind of cooperation is the most important reason why the Cleveland Cavaliers can dominate this league.
So for Cleveland Cavaliers fans, it's impossible to get tired of watching it no matter how many times you watch it.
They even enjoyed a moment like this, as if the Utah Jazz fans had enjoyed Stockton's pick-and-roll with Malone.
It's almost become an offensive signature for the Cleveland Cavaliers, because the opponent is simply helpless against it.
In such a situation, Wu Dawei is naturally going to go straight to the inside, although the San Antonio Spurs have Tim, who is known as the best power forward in history. Duncan is in control.
But even so, Wu Dawei was not afraid, and he rushed up directly. It was the entire San Antonio Spurs defense that seemed to tremble.
He seems to be as majestic as a tiger rushing into the primeval forest, and for anyone who dares to stop him, Wu Dawei will not hesitate to tear apart his opponent!
No one can stop him!
When Dwight. After Howard blocked Leonard for him. Wu Dawei completely accelerated and hit the inside line, and Split had already followed Dwight. Howard ran out, he tried to make up for Wu Dawei, but Wu Dawei had already blown in front of him like a gust of wind, so he didn't know what to do at all!
Then, Wu Dawei rushed into the paint area. Tim. Duncan tried to come up and make up for it, and he did everything he could to jump to the top. But it still couldn't stop Wu Dawei from throwing the ball into the basket with a folding layup.
It's like a tiger can embroider a needle, which makes the entire quick loan center resound extremely violent cheers, and for Cleveland Cavaliers fans, watching Wu Dawei wreak havoc on opponents' baskets in various ways seems to have become a kind of fun.
Although the San Antonio Spurs are not an easy team to beat, at this moment, after watching Wu Dawei throw the ball into the basket like a light weight, Cleveland fans on the sidelines don't seem to be worried about the team's performance in this season's finals.
Because they have Wu Dawei, a problem that the whole earth can't solve, and now, no one can stop Wu Dawei from doing what Wu Dawei wants to do on the basketball court.
Perhaps even God's comeback can't stop this qiē, Wu Dawei's attack seems to be very easy, and he got the game off to a flying start for the Cleveland Cavaliers at home.
0-2, the San Antonio Spurs fell behind at the beginning, and Wu Dawei's attack on the entire defense of the San Antonio Spurs was indeed completely helpless.
Of course, they hoped to contain Wu Dawei, but the opening goal had already made Popovich's already wrinkled cheeks even more solemn.
Are the San Antonio Spurs going to lose? Of course not, the game has just kicked off, and there is still a long time, but Popovich looked at Wu Dawei running wantonly on the basketball court, but his face was full of gloom.
It's not an easy problem to solve, and no team manager has found a good and effective way to contain Wu's offense in the last three series, and it's a problem for Popovich.
But now he really can't think too much about it, and now he can only hope that the San Antonio Spurs can also make a huge appearance on the offensive end.
At the end of the day, at this point Popovich and Miami Heat head coach Pat Brown in the Eastern Conference Finals. Riley's thoughts coincide with a few.
Although they really can't defend Wu Dawei, after all, basketball is a whole sport, and it is not something that can be solved by one person alone.
Although Wu Dawei has helped the Cleveland Cavaliers solve the battle many times in the playoffs this season, the manpower is limited, isn't it?! (To be continued) I580
