NBA: Top 3D talents to start

Chapter 189 The mighty knight, the invincible James
In the first game, the Cavaliers beat the Bulls 103:89. The one-sided game trend made people more sure that the Cavaliers would definitely be able to easily eliminate the Bulls and enter the second round.

The second game between the two sides will start on April 4 two days later.

In this game, the Bulls made some changes and adjustments. The offensive focus was no longer on Butler, who was strictly guarded by Wang Feng throughout the whole process, and the ball was handed over to Rondo, who played averagely during the regular season.

After all, he is an experienced top point guard. Rondo used his passing and experience to connect the whole team. Rondo sent 14 assists in the whole game and only made 1 turnover. The Bulls had 6 assists under Rondo's connection. He scored in double figures, and both Butler and Wade also scored 22 points, playing quite well.

However, the Bulls still lost this game for a simple reason.

Wang Feng made 8 of 6 shots from beyond the three-point line and scored 31 points.

In addition to Wang Feng, James also scored a triple-double of 21 points, 11 rebounds and 10 assists.

Most importantly... Irving shot 24 of 14 from the field and scored 37 points.

Coupled with Love's 18 points, the Cavaliers' four starters totaled 107 points!
In this case, how could the Bulls win?
The Cavaliers are so strong that the fans at home have the illusion of sitting in Oracle Stadium watching the Warriors.

The Warriors games in recent years have given others such a feeling. They have won more than 65 games in the regular season for three consecutive seasons, and they won 74 wins last season. The feeling of losing.

The current Cavaliers are really a bit like that!

After two games, the Cavaliers held a 2:0 lead, and the two sides came to Chicago, the home of the Bulls.

The Bulls who returned to the home court still couldn't win.

In the third game, James easily defeated the Bulls with a super triple-double of 41 points, 13 rebounds and 12 assists.

Wang Feng, who watched James' games up close, also had to sigh. James was really at the peak and strongest period of his career in the past two years. It's a pity that he met the Warriors. Otherwise, it is not impossible to surpass Jordan in the number of championships. In the past few years, apart from the Warriors, only the Rockets, who will rise after getting Paul next year, have the ability to compete with the Cavaliers.

With such a peak James, coupled with Irving who is not yet fully intelligent, Love who is still at his peak and has not suffered serious injuries, and Wang Feng himself, he is really confident to start a battle with the Warriors. A real battle of swords and guns.

……

On April 4, the fourth game of the first round series.

At the home court of the Bulls, the fans no longer have much of a nature to cheer for the home team.

Even they understand that the Bulls can't beat the Cavaliers, the level difference is too much.

Throughout the G4 game, James scored 33 points, 10 rebounds and 4 assists. Wang Feng hit 5 three-pointers and scored 26 points. Irving scored 22 points. Although Love only scored 7 points, he grabbed 16 rebounds, including 7 offensive rebounds.

It can be seen that the league wants the Bulls to win this game.

Butler took 16 shots and only hit 6 goals under the defense of Wang Feng, but he made an astonishing 23 free throws and hit 19 goals. He scored 33 points, 5 rebounds and 9 assists.

In the middle of the fourth quarter, Wang Feng was directly sent off by 6 fouls, but even so, the Bulls still failed to win the game.

104: 95.

The Cavaliers won the fourth game with a total score of 4:0, sweeping the Bulls and advancing to the second round.

After the game, James and his old partner Wade hugged and blessed each other, and Wade had a forced smile on his face.

In the four series, James averaged 32.8 points, 9.8 rebounds and 9 assists per game, while Wade tried his best, but averaged only 15 points, 5 rebounds and 4 assists per game, and his shooting percentage was only 37%.

The brothers who once created brilliance together in the Heat, now James is still on the way to chasing the championship, but he can only wander, and he is out of the playoffs early.

As a traveler, Wang Feng knows that Wade will choose to reach a buyout agreement with the Bulls this summer, and then join the Cavaliers with a low salary, hoping to give it a try and win another championship.

As a result, the Cavaliers lost Irving, and the situation became very bad. Isaiah Thomas left the Celtics system, and his personal strength plummeted. The entire Cavaliers could only be dragged forward by James alone.

Knowing that there is no hope of winning the championship, Wade finally chose to let the Cavaliers trade him to the Heat, which can be regarded as returning to his roots.

Of course, these are all things to say later, and have nothing to do with Wang Feng, he only cares about the present.

The Cavaliers, who have successfully entered the second round of the Eastern Conference Finals, will meet the Eagles in the first round and have a 3-1 lead over the Washington Wizards.

The Wizards have a pair of backcourts with a total salary of more than [-] million, John Wall and Bradley Beal.

两人常规赛的数据分别是23分4.2篮板10.7助攻与23分3.1篮板3.5助攻。

Relying on the super ability to score with two guns in the backcourt, the Wizards ranked fourth in the Eastern Conference with a record of 49 wins and 33 losses.

The configuration of the Wizards is actually somewhat similar to that of the Portland Trail Blazers. It is also the combination of two guns in the backcourt as the absolute core. The backcourt combination of Lillard and McCollum appears to be stronger than the Wizards on paper, because Lillard's three-point ability is much stronger than Wall's. Although the latter's ability to assist and connect the team is better, when the game enters a critical moment, it is obvious that Lillard's ability to end the game is stronger.

But neither the Wizards nor the Trail Blazers are obviously not the opponents of the current Cavaliers.

Not to mention the current team, even if it is another 18-year playoffs in time and space, without Irving, Love will be very embarrassing, and James, a single-handed and lonely hero, is still a Thanos who can walk sideways in the East.

In the first game of the two teams, they scored a huge difference of more than 30 points.

James then looked at 35 points and 10 rebounds, Wang Feng 27 points, Irving 26 points, Love 22 points.

Four players scored 20+, and the four scored 110 points in total!
This battle situation is even more exaggerated than the Big Four of the Warriors next door.

The game lost its suspense in the third quarter. After entering the fourth quarter, both teams basically played as substitute players.

In the end, the Cavaliers beat the Wizards by 123 points 92:31.

From this game alone, most fans can see that the Wizards are probably the next Bulls, and it is difficult to escape the fate of being swept.

In fact it is.

5月2日系列赛第二场，骑士队129:119再下一城，2:0。

In the third game of the series on May 5, the Cavaliers scored 4 points at the Wizards' home court, defeating the Wizards who scored only 116 points in the game, and once again won by 89 points.

On May 5, in the fourth game of the series, the Wizards tried their best to win the next game and avoid being swept. Bill scored 7 points and Wall scored 29 points and 28 assists.

However, the final score was Cavaliers 121:Wizards 102, with a total score of 4:0, which was neat.
