Chapter 213 The Second Round Against the Wizards
Time flies, came April 4, the sixth game between the Hawks and Wizards.

The previous Tianwangshan game allowed the Wizards to get the match point.

If the Eagles can't make a comeback in this game, the Wizards will advance directly.

But fortunately, this game is the home of the Eagles, which gave many Eagles fans confidence.

The starting lineup given by the Wizards is Wall, Bill, Markieff Morris, Otto Porter, and Marcin Gortat.

The starting lineup for the Eagles is Schroeder, Hardaway II, Prince, Millsap, Howard.

The Wizards took the lead at the beginning of the game. Under the leadership of Wall, the Wizards played fast.

At the end of the first quarter, the Wizards had a 30-23 lead by 7 points.

Su Tian also watched the entire game at home on TV. After all, he is the opponent in the next round, so he still needs to be given some respect.

In the second quarter, the Wizards continued to exert their strength and once again scored 35-23 in a single quarter. Throughout the first half, the Wizards had already led by 19 points.

In the third quarter, the Eagles still wanted to organize a wave of counterattacks, and Millsap also succeeded in consecutive strong shots at the basket, catching up with many points.

Although there were a lot of chasing points in the third quarter, they were still behind in the situation.

In the fourth quarter, the two sides directly started a big melee, and under the leadership of Wall, the Wizards did have an advantage over the Eagles.

In the end, the Wizards successfully won the Eagles 115-99, and also successfully advanced with a score of 4-2!
Seeing that the Wizards won the game, Su Tian was relieved, because Su Tian didn't want to wait any longer, and Su Tian couldn't wait to go to the battlefield.

As soon as the Wizards confirmed their promotion, Tyronn Lue sent a text message in the next second, informing him to participate in the team's training tomorrow.

The next day, Su Tian came to the arena for training on time.

"Hey! Su, I didn't expect you to guess right. It's really a wizard who has advanced!"

"Haha LeBron, I was guessing too."

"But that's fine, at least I think the Wizards are easier to deal with than the Eagles." James chatted while warming up.

On May 5, Quicken Loans Arena, the first game between the Wizards and the Cavaliers.

The Wizards still give the regular starting lineup, and the Cavaliers are the same.

The Cavaliers got the first possession of the ball in the opening game, and Irving got the ball and advanced with the ball.

In fact, Tyronn Lue has indeed done in-depth research on how to limit the Wizards. Wall is undoubtedly the starting point of the team's offense. If Wall can be cut off, half of the Wizards will be abolished.

But Irving obviously does not have such a defensive ability, so defending Wall must rely on the help of James and Thompson.

As for the other Bill with two guns in the backcourt of the Wizards, Su Tian can solve it by himself.

Except for the Wizards with two guns in the backcourt, everyone else is nothing to be afraid of.

After Irving came to the frontcourt with the ball, he passed the ball directly to James. The Cavaliers still chose to open a breakthrough from James.

Facing Morris, James called Love for a pick-and-roll, with the help of a direct open breakthrough.

Morris may be able to compete with James in terms of strength, but his flexibility and agility are still a lot worse, and James directly opened the distance.

James broke through all the way to the basket, and Gortat had already been waiting at the basket for a long time.

The Wizards also know that only one Morris can't restrain James, and can only rely on the team as a whole.

James came to the basket, did not pass the ball, but against Gortat's help defense, scored a layup.

2-0
The first ball at the start is of great significance, and James still wants to focus on stability.

The ball was switched, and it was the Wizards' turn to attack, and Wall came to the frontcourt with the ball.

On Su Tian's side, he followed Bill and ran around the field. Under Su Tian's defense, it was difficult for Bill to get rid of Su Tian.

Wall is very determined, facing Irving directly to make a breakthrough, and wants to rely on absolute speed to complete the breakthrough.

Irving's speed is not bad, but Irving's breakthrough is not of speed, but of rhythm and skill. Facing Wall's breakthrough, he still failed to keep up in time.

Of course, Tyronn Lue didn't expect to be able to limit Wall with Irving alone, and Thompson had already come to the basket position.

At the same time, Wall had just completed a breakthrough, and James also came to help defend, not giving Wall a chance to make a mid-range jumper, forcing Wall to go to the basket.

With Irving chasing behind Wall, James assisting defense on one side, and Thompson watching at the basket, Wall is not such a strong person, so he passed the ball directly to Gortat.

Gortat catches the ball and takes a shot from close range, and Thompson reaches out to interfere.

Swah——

Thompson didn't interfere, and the basketball scored.

2-2
Although Gortat made a shot, this was expected by Tyronn Lue and he was willing to see it.

After all, Gortat can vote for the Immortal Cavaliers.

The ball was once again given to the Cavaliers. Irving did not pass the ball to Wall this time, but called Thompson to pick and roll, and used the pick and roll to start a breakthrough.

Irving and Wall are both No. [-] picks, and both are point guards. I have to say that there is indeed some competition in it.

Wall is very fast, and he entangled Irving again the moment he bypassed the pick-and-roll, but Irving's rhythm was better. He came to the middle distance and made an emergency stop to shake off Wall, and then shot a jumper.

Swah——

Irving also made a shot.

4-2
Although it seems that Irving and Wall are evenly matched, you must know that Wall is the boss of the Wizards and the first offensive point.

As for Irving, the team's third child, he's just an assaulter on the offensive end.

The status of the two teams is different, but they are evenly matched. This shows the gap between the Wizards and the Cavaliers.

In the next few rounds, James and Su Tian also began to take turns to exert force, and the Wizards had no match at all.

Su Tian's three-pointers and passes were also a headache for the Wizards, but he didn't dare to let go of the others at will.

Until the end of the first quarter, the gap between the two sides was obvious, as can be seen from the score, 30-18, the Cavaliers led by 12 points in the first quarter.

In the second quarter, Su Tian went to rest. Although Su Tian had a rest, Bill's life was still difficult.

When facing Wade in the first round, jr was a little powerless and was hit by Wade a few times.

But facing Bill now, jr's defensive experience and awareness are still more useful, but it is easier to be thrown away on the off-ball end.

Halfway through the second quarter, the difference between the two sides was still in double digits, without much change.

At this time, Su Tian replaced Owen and came to the first position to face Wall.

When facing Irving, Wall's breakthrough and speed were not bad, but the situation was different when facing Su Tianshi.

Wall's breakthroughs were successfully intercepted by Su Tian several times in a row. Although there were no steals, he successfully forced Wall to pass the ball or make a forced shot.

It made Wall very embarrassed.

On the offensive end of the Cavaliers, with Su Tian's go-between, the whole team performed very well.

With the help of Su Tian, ​​at the end of the first half, the score came to 61-46, leading the Wizards by 15 points at halftime.

During the intermission, Tyronn Lue just gave a few routine instructions and didn't say anything more. Obviously, in Tyronn Lue's view, the Wizards are not a threat.

At the beginning of the third quarter, the Cavaliers directly played the entire main lineup.

Although the Wizards are also the main force here, the Cavaliers are active, and the Wizards are helpless.

As soon as the third quarter opened, James began to control the ball, hitting the Wizards' defense again and again, attracting the defense and then passing the ball to assist his teammates.

Su Tian also received two passes from James, and made one of two three-pointers. In addition, Su Tian also played a few times with the ball, the Wizards could barely maintain the existing point difference.

After halfway through the third quarter, Su Tian was replaced to rest and prepare for the fourth quarter.

Soon, the third quarter ended, the score came to 90-71, and the Cavaliers temporarily led by 19 points.

With this point difference, and such a gap in the team's lineup, at least this game is basically hopeless for the Wizards.

But in order to ensure the safety of the team, Tyronn Lue still sent Su Tian to lead the team in the fourth quarter.

The lineup sent was Deron, Su Tian, ​​Shumpert, Richard Jefferson, Frye.

Except that Su Tianquan is a substitute, this is also to protect the health of the players and avoid injuries.

The Wizards are not so good here. In order to chase points, they still took the backcourt combination of Wall and Bill.

The first ball was given to the Cavaliers. Deron took the ball to the frontcourt and passed the ball directly to Su Tian.

Deron also knows who the lineup is going to hold the ball for now. Think about the year Su Tian first came to the league, he was still the leader of the Nets, and he had the experience of playing against Su Tian.

Su Tian got the ball and faced Bill and called Frye for a pick-and-roll.

Break through directly with the help of the pick-and-roll, and suddenly step back in the middle distance, shake Bill away and shoot easily.

Swah——

Su Tian made a steady hit from mid-range.

92-71
The ball is switched, and it's the Wizards' turn to attack.

Wall came to the frontcourt with the ball, did not call for a pick-and-roll, but broke through directly. After Deron was injured, his speed was indeed a lot slower, and he failed to catch up with Wall in time.

Wall holds the ball and goes straight to the basket. Wall also knows that the Cavaliers' internal defense is relatively empty now, and it is a good time to attack.

But Wall rushed so fast that he didn't notice that Su Tian was following behind him at all!

Wall came to the basket and made a layup. Seeing that the basketball was about to hit the backboard and hit the net, suddenly a palm came out from behind and slapped the basketball away.

boom--

The basketball bounced off the backboard and landed in Su Tian's arms.

Su Tian landed the ball firmly and quickly counterattacked with the ball!
At this time, Wall was still in the daze of being blocked, but he didn't react. Bill wanted to stop him, but Su Tian easily broke through in disguise.

Su Tian took the lead and came to the front court. When he reached the basket, no one behind him could keep up, so Su Tian directly collected the ball and took off.

bang——

Su Tian succeeded in hacking with one hand!

94-71
"Su has indeed grown a lot, and I suspect his body is still growing! Because he jumps higher than before!"

"Really, the Cavaliers are really lucky, but I don't know if they can stay in the offseason."

"Leave these to the general manager Griffin to have a headache, let's continue to watch the game."

Su Tian's block and counter-attack dunk directly knocked down half of the remaining morale of the Wizards.

At this time, the point difference has come to 23 points, and the Cavaliers' victory is set.

So in the following time, Tyronn Lue did not send the main force, but just took the substitute lineup, and even the water dispenser administrator, to help Su Tian.

In the end, the game ended, and the Cavaliers beat the Wizards 116-91 with 25 points.

Su Tian got the highest score in the game. Although he was suspected of collecting data during garbage time, the Wizards did not replace Wall.

苏天全场拿下34分12助攻7篮板2抢断1盖帽，全场最佳。

James scored 21 points, 8 rebounds, 7 assists and 2 steals, and his performance is still very stable.

Irving scored 24 points, 4 assists and 2 rebounds, the second highest score of the Cavaliers.

For the Wizards, Wall scored 27 points, 11 assists, 4 rebounds and 1 steal, which is already the highest score in the Wizards.

Bill tried Su Tian's defense in this game. He only scored 10 points, 1 assist and 3 rebounds. He was completely different from his performance in the first round.

This game was firmly won by the Cavaliers 1-0. The end of the first game of this round of the series has actually heralded the direction of this round of the series.

Basically, no one can break through the Cavaliers only because they are curious. After all, the Cavaliers can even play garbage time.

The next day, May 5, the Celtics also played Game 2 against the Raptors.

The two teams went on until overtime. In overtime, Thomas Jr. made consecutive breakthrough layups and quickly sealed the victory.

In the end, the game was won by the Celtics, and Thomas Jr. also scored 53 points, 4 assists, 4 rebounds and 3 steals, the highest score in the game!

Thomas Jr.'s crazy performance also made the league pay more and more attention to this little man.

After all, no one would have imagined that at the end of the second round of the show, he could perform like this.

On May 5, the second game of the Cavaliers and Wizards series.

This game is simply a replica of the previous game. The Cavaliers established a 12-point lead in the first quarter.

At the end of the first three quarters, the Cavaliers had already led by 26 points. In the fourth quarter, the Cavaliers didn't play the main force directly, so it was better for Su Tian to play the remaining time.

Regardless of halfway through the fourth quarter this time, the Wizards saw no hope and replaced all the main players.

Su Tian had no choice but to go down with him to rest. After all, Su Tian is also an All-Star now, so it's not good to go to garbage time to score points.

In the end, the Cavaliers easily won the Wizards 125-103, and the big score came to 2-0. It is very difficult for the Wizards to win a game.

On May 5, the Cavaliers came to Washington, and the next two games will be the Wizards' home court. With the home court advantage, I don't know if the Wizards can get back a round.

On May 5, the third game of the series kicked off.

Wall ushered in a big explosion this time, which can be regarded as bottoming out. He scored 40 points, 13 assists, 3 rebounds, 3 steals and 3 blocks. The audience shined and played for 42 minutes.

But it is a pity that apart from Wall, the Wizards have no second person who can help Wall.

Bill, who was supposed to take on this responsibility, was followed by Su Tian. He only scored 11 points, 4 assists and 4 rebounds. His shooting percentage was less than [-]%, and his efficiency was low.

而骑士这边，詹姆斯照例拿到23分6助攻8篮板1抢断，欧文拿下24分4助攻3篮板2抢断。

Su Tian scored the Cavaliers' highest score with 27 points, 9 assists, 7 rebounds and 2 steals.

The Wizards played against the Cavaliers until the last moment. Just 3 minutes before the end, the scores of the two teams were still tied.

However, Su Tian scored two consecutive three-pointers and directly sealed the victory. Su Tian hadn't even used his "super jumper".

In the end, the Cavaliers won the game 119-115, and the big score came to 3-0, and the Cavaliers' advancement is in sight.
