The Cleveland Cavaliers took an 11-6 lead in the opening period, which is undoubtedly very good for their prospects in this game.

Among them, Wu Dawei alone contributed 7 points out of these 11 points, and there is no doubt that he is the one who has the most credit for the Cleveland Cavaliers to play this wave of offense.

Other than that, of course, Dwight. Howard's offense and defense on the interior are just as important. As stated before the start of this game, the Cleveland Cavaliers are completely an enhanced version of the Charlotte Bobcats.

Whether it's inside or outside, the Cleveland Cavaliers are not only balanced offensively and defensively, but they are completely superior to the Charlotte Bobcats.

And this is also reflected in the opening scene. The Cleveland Cavaliers have been on the dominant side in the game from start to finish, and the Charlotte Bobcats are completely unable to turn against that.

Although they tried their best to overtake the score in the game, the gap in strength made them always extremely disadvantaged in the game.

After all, the strength of the Cleveland Cavaliers is much stronger than that of the Charlotte Bobcats, so for such a situation, it is more difficult for the Charlotte Bobcats to surpass the Cleveland Cavaliers.

At least for the Charlotte Bobcats, this is not easy to do, but after all, it has only been a long time since the game started, and although they are completely passive all of a sudden, the Charlottes will still fight hard at this time.

Because for them, if they can't get a good start to the series on the road, then it will be difficult for them to win the series in this series.

After all, the Charlotte Bobcats still want to go further in the playoffs, rather than going home in a series.

Although this possibility should be relatively high, but before it happens, the Charlotte Bobcats certainly still hope to be able to fight hard.

After all, a good start to death will occupy a very important position in this round of the series.

So at this time, although the Charlotte Bobcats are 5 points behind, but in fact, 5 points does not seem to be much of a gap.

For the Cleveland Cavaliers. Of course, they also know very well that such an advantage is not very big at this moment, although the Charlotte Bobcats are not good at offense and better at defense, but they can still catch up quickly at this time.

If you want to have a more solid advantage, then it is natural that you should open up the gap between the scores even more, which is very important.

So at this point, for the Cleveland Cavaliers, they need to continue to attack, but first of all, the Cleveland Cavaliers need to defend first.

Because the ball was in the hands of the Charlotte Bobcats at this point, and Kemba. Walker, on the other hand, dribbled quickly through the half, and they certainly needed to play a good attack at this point.

After all, the opponent is very strong, and for the Charlotte Bobcats, if they can't hold the score tightly at this time. Then the later they get to the game, the more serious the shape they face will become.

So at this point, of course, they are on the side for the Cleveland Cavaliers, while the Charlotte Bobcats are in extreme danger.

The shape shì is not good, at least for the Charlottes. So this time the attack, the Charlotte Bobcats need to succeed.

They need to keep the gap narrow, and they can't just be pulled away by the Cleveland Cavaliers.

So this time the offense, of course, they have to go all out. And Kemba. Walker, on the other hand, continued to feed the ball to Al in the low post. Jefferson.

Although the latter had previously been used by Dwight. Howard blocked once, but he also scored twice. So at this time Al. Jefferson's inside singles was also their best bet.

And when Al. When Jefferson was on the ball, Dwight. Howard naturally greeted him, he didn't hesitate, after all, he didn't want to look at Al. Jefferson kept scoring in front of himself.

Although Dwight. Howard had blocked him once. But it was also El . Jefferson made two throws.

But this time, Dwight. Although Howard said that he had the intention to bring Al. Jefferson's projection was blocked again, but he didn't make it.

Al. Jefferson threw the ball into the basket again, much to the surprise of Dwight. Not a good thing for Howard.

However, at this time, he also had to accept such a thing. Because Al. Jefferson did score three goals on his head.

As a result, the score became 8:11, and the Cleveland Cavaliers were still the leading side. But one thing is undeniable, and that is that the Charlotte Bobcats are undoubtedly still catching up very urgently.

While they were an all-round underdog in this game, no one was optimistic about their prospects against the Cleveland Cavaliers.

However, for the Charlotte Bobcats, not giving up is the most important thing for them, and they have to hold on in such a disadvantaged and passive situation.

Otherwise, only defeat awaits the Charlotte Bobcats, and if they persist, then it does not necessarily mean that the Charlotte Bobcats will definitely become the losing side.

After all, the difference is only 3 points now, and for the Charlotte Bobcats, they still have a good chance to catch up with such a disadvantage in the game.

So at this point, of course they're going to do their best for the Charlotte Bobcats.

And the Charlotte Bobcats are once again in the paint area by Al Bush. After Jefferson scored, the next thing they need to do is defend well.

For the Cleveland Cavaliers, this situation is not particularly favorable for them, and the opponent is chasing after them, leaving them feeling a little nervous and a little worried.

However, the good news is that their own offensive performance in this game is not bad, so they don't need to worry too much.

Wu Dawei held the ball again at this time, after all, he had a very good start to this night's game, so it was obviously the best choice to hand the ball to Wu Dawei at this time.

And Wu Dawei will certainly not let such a responsibility go aside at this time, he has already scored 7 points, more than half of the points the team has received at this time.

So for such a responsibility. Wu Dawei must be responsible for it at this time.

As soon as Wu Dawei held the ball, McKegie, who was standing in front of Wu Dawei, felt a trace of uneasiness, and he had been successfully attacked by Wu Dawei in a row.

This is undoubtedly a huge blow to his confidence on the defensive end, and he will continue to suffer blows in the future.

Because this game has just kicked off, it has not been long before the curtain opens, which is even more torturous. For McGee, he naturally had a big problem.

After all, Wu Dawei has been scored continuously, and then Wu Dawei got the ball again, which is naturally a great test for Mikiji, who is responsible for defending him.

And this test will make McGee feel very uncomfortable, because Wu Dawei is stronger than McGee in terms of strength and speed.

It can even be said that in terms of strength, it is necessary to crush the storage of Mackigi. That's what makes McGee feel the most uncomfortable.

Not only did he not be able to defend against Wu Dawei on the inside, but he also felt a headache about Wu Dawei's sudden cold arrow on the outside.

Because he couldn't defend, he almost became a colander after the opening. It's how he feels about defending now, and it's not good news for a young man.

This will make him lose his confidence, after all, this is the self-confidence he has built up with great difficulty, but at this time, he is about to be deeply shattered by Wu Dawei.

And this time, Wu Dawei still chose to attack the basket, and when he got the ball, Wu Dawei did not make any other choice. Instead, they went straight to the attack.

This naturally made McKiji feel a little helpless again, and he hurriedly greeted him, but he was not Wu Dawei's opponent at all.

The moment the two of them collided on their bodies, McGee immediately fell into the downwind.

He was completely unable to compete with Wu Dawei. was pushed away almost as soon as he hit it, and Wu Dawei immediately rushed into the paint area in such a situation.

And once Wu Dawei rushed into the paint area, the shape of the Charlotte Bobcats would immediately become extremely critical.

Wu Dawei's speed is very fast, and the natural momentum is also swift and unstoppable. And at this time Al. Jefferson could only bite the bullet and catch up.

He was in front of Wu Dawei's advance, and he was indeed blocking Wu Dawei's advance, but he was a colleague. At this time, it was also Dwight who had to give up his own defense. Howard.

And Wu Dawei was indeed blocked by him at this time, but after he blocked Wu Dawei, Wu Dawei directly chose to pass.

Didn't give it to Al at all. Jefferson had another chance to go back, and the ball was thrown directly into the sky by Wu Dawei, and Dwight. Howard also jumped up immediately at this time.

It's another aerial relay, and it's a very exciting offense for the Cleveland Cavaliers!

Dwight. Howard roared and threw the ball into the basket, and the ball got into the basket, and at the same time rewrote the score again, the score became 8-13, and the Cleveland Cavaliers still kept the score gap at 5 points.

For the Cleveland Cavaliers, they now have to stabilize their position and not let the opponent easily catch up with the score at this time.

Then slowly think about the next thing to expand the score advantage, after all, the game has just started and it has not been long before the Cleveland Cavaliers are ahead, but they will not beat the opponent to death all at once.

So at this time, the Cleveland Cavaliers still need to be vigilant enough, and now they are talking about the score gap to maintain around 5 points, and the next step is naturally to work hard to prepare on the defensive end, and the Cleveland Cavaliers will welcome the Charlotte Bobcats attack.

Al. Jefferson was undoubtedly the Charlotte Bobcats' No. 1 point of attack at this time, as he had already been at Dwight. Howard scored three goals under his defense.

So at this point, for the Cleveland Cavaliers, they have to strengthen their defense in the paint area at this point.

Otherwise, if they let El . If Jefferson had given what he had asked for in the paint area, he would have been less optimistic about what they were facing.

Even though they were playing at home and were in the lead, they still couldn't stop the Charlotte Bobcats from catching up.

Because the Cleveland Cavaliers were not able to defend the Charlotte Bobcats' interior core Al Brown. Jefferson. Originally, for the Cleveland Cavaliers, Dwight. Howard is on the inside, which can undoubtedly help the Cleveland Cavaliers solve this problem easily.

But it is clear that this is not an easy task now. Because of Dwight. Howard faced Al on four occasions. When Jefferson attacked, he only managed to block the opponent's projection once.

And this time the block is Dwight. Howard's only successful defense, in such a situation, Al Brown. Jefferson was already 3-of-4 shooting at this point.

With six points, he is currently the second-highest scorer in the game and the source of the vast majority of points for the Charlotte Bobcats.

That alone was enough to make the Cleveland Cavaliers feel very uncomfortable in the middle of the game, because they were always unable to contain the Charlotte Bobcats' interior attack. Although they now have an advantage in the game, it is always difficult to crush the opponent to death.

And that's not what the Cleveland Cavaliers expect to see, and while they have a firm grip on the lead, no one knows what will happen in the next game if they don't close the gap.

After all, before the end of the game, everything is undecided, so at this time, for the Cleveland Cavaliers, although they are doing well on the offensive end, it is clear that they need to do better on the defensive end.

Because offense alone is absolutely impossible to win a game at a playoff level. So at this time, for the Cleveland Cavaliers, they have to really play a balanced offensive and defensive table.

That's especially crucial for the Cleveland Cavaliers if they can't play a little better. Then they can only win this game by relying on their own hard strength to surpass their opponents too much.

But such a win is clearly not something that the Cleveland Cavaliers, who have won 74 games in a row in the regular season this season, want to see.

While they'd love to win their first game of the playoffs on their home turf, they certainly wouldn't want their start to be so hard.

They're not just about getting off to a good start, at the same time. They also want to get a hearty victory!

The Cleveland Cavaliers not only want to win games, but they also want to win beautifully. So the Cleveland Cavaliers certainly need to do a better job on both ends of the floor.

However, it was clear that this was a difficult one for the Cleveland Cavaliers in this game tonight.

Because it's not just their performance on the offensive end. At the same time, although their opponent Charlotte Bobcats has always been unable to defend the Cleveland Cavaliers' offense, their appearance on the offensive end has indeed caused the Cleveland Cavaliers to feel a headache.

After the switch between offense and defense, the Charlotte Bobcats once again handed the ball to Al. Jefferson's hands, however, the Cleveland Cavaliers, although they focused on their defense in the paint area at this time, were still defeated by Al Brown. Jefferson threw the ball into the hoop with a very fast hook.

Such a shape made them feel very uncomfortable, and for the Cleveland Cavaliers, they watched the score being chased again.

This feeling makes them very unhappy, although they are still the leading side on the basketball court, but they have always been unable to shake off this annoying opponent behind them, which really makes them feel bad.

The opponent's opening game tonight was clearly a little more resilient than the Cleveland Cavaliers expected.

Plus Al. Jefferson's state on the offensive end is simply a-stirring stick, and it has always been difficult for the Cleveland Cavaliers to completely open up the score gap at this time.

And now that the Cleveland Cavaliers can't completely open up the gap, the shape they face is not going to get better.

Although they are always on the leading side, they are not able to fully establish their advantage at this time. If they are not careful, they may be chased by their opponents, and this has always haunted their minds.

When Al. After Jefferson threw the ball into the basket again, the gap was narrowed again, and Dwight was hit as well. Howard has some self-confidence, but not only Dwight. Howard, that's not good news for the entire Cleveland Cavaliers.

They have to play well again on the next offensive end. (To be continued......)
