Byron. Scott's expression at this time was the same as that of Doug. Collins looked like the two in the first half, but the position was reversed. Scott was smiling, and Collins was browning deeper.

At 54:51, the Cavaliers were still picking up the pace of their pursuit. It seems that such a rhythm has become unstoppable.

The Cavaliers played an unconventional style of play in the second half, and so far, they have barely had a complete positional attack, and most of the points they have completed have relied on the quick shots and rhythm of the defensive counter-attack.

As a last resort, Doug. Collins could only continue to ask for a timeout. Because the team really seems to have a tendency to be broken. It wasn't what he wanted, and it was the exact opposite of what he had in mind at the start of the second half.

But like I said before, sometimes, when the momentum rises, it's not something you can control.

All you can do is try to interrupt the other person's rhythm with a pause. After all, the rhythm is basically the same as the feeling. It is not uncommon for a match to pause and disrupt the smooth sailing rhythm of the opponent.

So, now Doug. Collins could only hope for that. Although he had hoped that the timeout would disrupt his opponent's rhythm during the previous timeout, he failed. But this time, Doug. Collins still had no choice.

And if you fail to join this game, then the thing that is more disappointing than the failure of this game is Doug. Corinth couldn't believe it. His own team can't even beat the Cavaliers who are currently in a straggler state, so what can they say about competing for the top eight.

So, Doug. At the timeout, Collins gave his players a dead-line order to try to maintain their existing advantage and reopen the margin if possible.

The head coach's angry expression and tone during the timeout obviously still had some deterrent effect on the 76ers players, so much so that the 76ers players finally showed a hint of recovery after returning from the timeout.

Maybe it was because they were chasing for most of the quarter, and the Cavaliers also wanted to breathe a sigh of relief, and the two sides invariably slowed down.

69:66。 The three-point gap was maintained by both sides until the end of the third quarter. Wu added another 7 points in the third quarter, making his game's score 19 points, a number that has completely surpassed his average points per game this season, and according to the form on the court, it is clear that Wu Dawei still has a lot of time to play in place of the Cavaliers to help the team win this game in the end.

In addition to scoring 19 points, Wu Dawei was not bad on other counts, and he also contributed three blocks and three steals on the defensive end. He also had nine rebounds and five assists.

Thanks to Morris. Williams is leaving and new core point guard Chauncey. Billups can't join the team yet. So in tonight's game, Wu Dawei has more opportunities to hold the ball, and naturally, his assists have increased accordingly. At the moment, though, most of his assists come from helping his teammates get down quickly after defending successfully.

In positional warfare, Wu Dawei is still more accustomed to being a passive attacker.

In addition to Wu Dawei's 7 points in the third quarter, veteran Antoine. Jamison also continued his good form tonight, with 21 points after the third quarter. It also surpassed his points per game average this season. Moreover, Jamison's playing time is also a little lower than Wu Dawei.

The only downside is that Jamison's offensive efficiency is not too high. In order to score 21 points, Jamison used a total of 19 shots.

Cavaliers head coach Byron. Scott, though he would have liked to have caught up in the third quarter. But often the situation on the court is still the main thing, and the 76ers have obviously recovered after the timeout, and there is no need for them to fight to the death. After all, there's a 12-minute fourth quarter there.

The battle in the third quarter was intense, at least definitely for the Cavaliers. Chasing points is not an easy task, and the cost of physical activity is much greater than the kind of games that you have been playing in the past.

So, Scott had just over three minutes left in the third quarter. began to replace their starters off the pitch one after another. Wu was the first person to be replaced by Scott to rest on the court, but he soon became the first player to return to the court.

Because the Cavaliers' bench lineup was pulled out of Ramon. Sessions left Ryan. After Hollins, it became even more vulnerable. Originally, at the beginning of the season, when Wu Dawei was still put on the bench by Scott, the Cavaliers' bench lineup was also in their strong period.

In many games at the beginning of the season, the Cavaliers' bench has always been able to fill in the big holes they dug for the Cavaliers' main lineup during the rotation period when the main players are resting. But with Wu Dawei being transferred to the starter, their peak period has passed.

Wu Dawei, who can contribute 18 points per game, is still a relatively powerful scorer among bench players, and his defense is undoubtedly a nightmare for all bench players in the league.

Plus Wu Dawei and Ryan. Hollins and Ramon. Sessions' tacit understanding made him always look like a fish in water after coming on as a substitute.

That's why the Cavaliers' bench roster was so strong at the start of the season, but now it's becoming even worse. The withdrawal and departure of key personnel, without the addition of fresh and strong blood, is the key to the sluggish bench lineup of the Cavaliers.

Therefore, the Cavaliers' bench lineup, which has been languishing for almost half a season, has become a little weaker tonight. Especially when they meet the 76ers' extremely talented and impactful young people, they become even weaker and more vulnerable.

The 3-point difference quickly became 5 points, and the 5-point difference quickly became untenable. After the third quarter, the fourth quarter began. The young lads of the 76ers are threatening to give the Cavaliers' vulnerable bench a dismount.

After widening the margin to 5 points, they managed to cut off the Cavaliers' possession of the ball once, and then relied on counterattacks to extend the margin to 7 points!

At this time, the fourth quarter was just 1 minute into it. All of a sudden, the situation turned bad, and the Cavaliers' bench players only lasted a few minutes before it looked like they were about to collapse.

At this time it was already the fourth quarter of the game, and Byron. Naturally, Scott didn't dare to take that risk. So even though Wu Dawei had only rested for a few minutes, Scott still called him to his side.

"Wu, the team needs you now!" There was a hint of helplessness in Scott's words. "Play like you did in the second quarter and go get the score back! This is our last chance! ”

With just over a minute into the fourth quarter, Wu Dawei once again put on the line-of-the-road, with the advice of head coach Scott, who had run out of options. Meanwhile, 76ers coach Doug Murphy. Collins also hurriedly called Iguodala and Nozioni to his side, and Wu Dawei gave him a cold sweat in the second and third quarters, naturally, he would not give Wu Dawei such a chance again.

The 7-point advantage was enough for the 76ers to take the initiative in the final quarter, so. Doug. Corinthians is not going to give it lightly no matter what!

Although when he came on the court, Wu Dawei saw Iguodala and Nozioni also walk on the court one after another. He frowned slightly. But for these two people, Wu Dawei is not afraid at all, because after Iguodala is in opposition to him in this match, his table is not as good as before; And the Argentinian Nozioni, did he bargain for himself tonight?

Although Wu Dawei doesn't take these two 76ers players very seriously, his teammates are not him, naturally, not to mention Iguodala, even Nozioni is not a mountain that can be easily crossed for the Cavaliers' bench players.

After Wu Dawei came on the court, he was still playing against Nozioni on the offensive end. On the defensive end, Iguodala was defended.

It can be said that the head coach of the 76ers, Doug . Collins is using two starters to curb Wu Dawei's play, and it can be seen that it is obviously Wu Dawei's previous appearance that scared the old coach to pee.

The Cleveland people must win this game, and the 76ers, who have now gained the advantage, are naturally determined to win. Both teams understand how much of a civil war in the rankings can have on their own records.

Wu Dawei's arrival brought some morale boost to the Cavaliers' bench players. As the most famous and most popular player in the current Cavaliers team, Wu Dawei is undoubtedly full of positive energy within the team. And his presence on the pitch also means that he will bring a strong one-line defense and more aggressive running on the offensive end.

Wu Dawei's strong ability on the defensive end does make him after he gets on the court. Helped the team slightly curb some of the 76ers' offense, and at the same time, Cavaliers coach Byron Brown. Scott also knew it was the most critical moment, so he started to put his starters on the pitch in advance.

And the old handsome Doug. Collins immediately began to make adjustments, as he found that when Scott began to put his starters on the court, the Cavaliers began to close the margin again.

It was the fourth quarter of the game. Collins understands that any slackness could lead to a rout. So he didn't dare to react too slowly, but then began to replace his best players on the court one after another to make a last-ditch effort.

The Cavaliers slowly began to catch up with the seven-point deficit that they had trailed by seven points, and they quickly narrowed the gap to four points, but as the 76ers began to play as much as possible, the two sides were at a stalemate in the final quarter.

The stalemate lasted until the final five minutes of the game, during which coaches from both sides called several timeouts but were unable to break the deadlock. Byron. Scott is naturally anxious about this situation, as his team is currently a little behind; Again, Doug. Collins was also anxious at first, but as time passed and the advantage was still in his hands, Collins became calm. Because he knows that as long as this situation is maintained, then his team will eventually be the final winner.

At 88:84, there were only five minutes left in the clock. But the good thing is that the current ball is in the hands of the Cleveland Cavaliers, who are playing at home. Sessions has the ball up front. Although he didn't work well with the starters, after a game of adaptation, he was much better than he was at the beginning.

Scott had already used up his own penultimate timeout of the game before that, and each one, almost as a push, was a fierce player not to give up, to play catch-up, and then to win the game.

So Sessions was cautious, the Phillies had once again given them a four-point lead with an attack just now, and now the Cavaliers will have another chance to take advantage of the opponent's mistakes to tie as long as they continue to score this goal.

Sessions controlled the ball high and then motioned for Wu Dawei to help him make a pick-and-roll. The two of them still blocked and dismantled, and then Wu Dawei received the ball on the other side, and at this time, Iguodala, who had changed the defense, was already standing in front of Wu Dawei who got the ball.

The speed at which the 76ers changed their defense was extremely fast, leaving no chance for Wu Dawei to shoot in an empty space. But Wu Dawei has faced such a situation many times in the second half, he did not let the ball stop because Iguodala stood in front of him, Wu Dawei dribbled directly at the same time, suddenly, Iguodala felt a figure pop up beside him!

A nimble figure ran from behind Iguodala to the three-point line, and at the same time, Wu Dawei, who was moving towards the baseline in front of Iguodala, passed the ball directly to him as the man passed by. Then, Wu Dawei stood forward and stood on the road that the man had passed before.

Jamison got the ball from beyond the three-point line, and at the same time, Wu Dawei blocked Speights who was chasing after him for him!

Jamison jumped up from beyond the three-point line without any hesitation!

Suddenly, the arena was full of exclamations, and there were Cleveland fans screaming excitedly because of this empty shot; There were also angry roars from the 76ers players.

The ball flew up with a loud cry and then went headlong into the net!

With a bang, the score was rewritten, 88:87!

In an instant, the Cavaliers were only one point behind! It was a great opportunity as the Cavaliers closed the deficit to one point for the first time in the fourth quarter, and now, all they need is a successful defense!

All eyes were on Wu Dawei, and the 76ers did not ask for a timeout, but continued their offense.

Cinnabar. Holiday dribbled past half court and passed the ball to Iguodala, but Iguodala did not attack with the ball, but hoisted the ball inside to face Anthony. Parker, Nozioni stuck position on the inside.

Obviously, he wants to bully the small with the big on the inside. But when Iguodala threw the ball to Nozioni, Wu Dawei, who was originally in charge of defending Iguodala, moved with him to the weak side for a while, and suddenly, while turning around and ignoring Iguodala, he moved towards the strong side and moving to the middle line.

Just when people were puzzled by Wu Dawei's moves, they found that the inside line had changed dramatically! Nozioni played Parker with his back to the ball, and the split second he turned, Vallejo's bag was in place. The two's flank made Nozioni miss!

Parker cut off the ball, he looked up, and saw a figure belonging to Cleveland in the front court!

Wu Dawei raised his arms high and rode in the front court!
