After the first two games of the first round of the playoffs, the teams with home advantage in the West took a 2-0 lead.

In addition to the Cavaliers and heat 1-1 in the East, other teams with home advantage also won 2-0 in a row and defended the home.

The Cavaliers lost a game and lost home advantage.

Skip commented, "the game results confirm what I said. James is absolutely unable to lead the team to the promotion. His ability is absolutely overestimated. Their strength is too weak. It's pure good luck that they can enter the playoffs. Otherwise, they can't even enter the playoffs. "

The results of the next game also seem to prove skip's statement.

In the third game of the first round, the Cavaliers went away to play on the heat's territory.

The heat continued the tactical strategy of the last game and still arranged several people to guard against James, which made them taste the sweetness of victory in the last game. There is no reason to change first.

But Paul Silas didn't think of a good way to help James break the heat's defense. In fact, we all know that if other players in the Cavaliers can stand up and score, and can throw the ball into the basket after receiving James's pass, the heat can't dare to encircle James so recklessly.

However, no one can stand out in this game. The Cavaliers' role players feel cold collectively. Even big Z, who has always behaved in a regular way, threw two goals at close range under the basket. Boozer's turn over jump shot was directly shot by Wade.

After half-time, the Cavaliers were 13 points behind the heat.

The heat's home fans are now shouting Wade's name. They are completely conquered by the guard who has a slightly swollen cheek and a surprisingly fast breakthrough speed.

We didn't get LeBron, but we had Wade, so it doesn't matter.

Now Wade is leading the heat to beat James's Cavaliers.

In the second half, James made continuous efforts, that is, under the strong sudden basket, he took off with one person and slammed the button, hung two people to take off and lay up, rushed into the encirclement of three people, fought for foul free throws, scored extremely hard and helped the team catch up points.

At the end of the third quarter, the Cavaliers chased the difference to only three points left.

This gave the Cavaliers a chance to win.

When he came back in the fourth quarter, James raised his hand outside and shot a three-point shot to smooth the difference.

This was the first time they tied the difference.

But looking back, Wade broke through with the ball again and ran to the basket. In the double attack of newbell and Boozer, he still scored the basketball hard and helped the team take the lead again.

Since then, the Cavaliers have failed to equalize the difference. The heat firmly held the lead in the crazy shouting of home fans until the end of the game and won a winning streak by 8 points.

The big score was 1-2 behind, which forced the Cavaliers to a critical juncture. In the next game, if they lose the game again, the heat will be promoted to the match point. It is really difficult, very difficult to pull back three games in a row and advance to the next round when they are 1-3 behind.

So before the game, James told his teammates in the dressing room that the game must be won and the team should not be trapped in the dilemma of 1-3 big score.

Last night, James was at Wade's house. They both had a tacit understanding and didn't talk about basketball, because they both knew the importance of tomorrow's game. If the heat won, they could successfully get the match point. If the Cavaliers lost, they might face elimination. This is a game that no one wants to lose.

They watched a movie together at Wade's house, the basketball movie, the big dunk in the air.

The producer of the film had contacted James before and wanted him to play the leading role in the sequel of the film, but James refused and entered the list of consideration and reconsideration, which is still under consideration.

This was a children's film, but James and wade enjoyed it and laughed all the time.

Wade's wife Theo Vaughn looked around and didn't know where the smile was. The two men rolled on the sofa with a big smile, even if it was a low smile.

But as soon as they returned to the game, they were both serious and wanted to burst out all their energy to kill their opponents.

At the beginning of the game, the Cavaliers attacked. James received a pass from McGinnis in the high position and hit a defensive jump shot from Eddie Jones.

Looking back, Wade took the ball to the front court, played against newbell, quickly swayed to the right, then changed his body forward, broke into the restricted area from the left, flew to dunk, and returned the color.

After McGinnis took the ball through the half court, he handed it to James. James saw that big Z had gone down the basket, passed the ball over his shoulder, spread it across the whole court, delivered shells, took off from the basket, received it, and buckled the basketball in.

"The Cavaliers played well at the beginning of this game. At least they didn't play as slowly as the first two games. They entered the state as soon as they came up and scored the ball twice in a row." Said Kenny Smith with a smile.

Barkley nodded. "Yes, this game is not a loss for the Cavaliers. The Cavaliers are the only playoff team with home advantage but a big score behind."

"The heat also want to get the match point as soon as possible."

Odom controlled the ball, dribbled the ball outside the right three-point line, failed to break through the defense, transferred the ball to wade at the top of the arc, and wade picked up the ball and shot three points.

With a bang, the iron struck.

Scared to death, Cavaliers fans who watched the game on the big screen in the quick loan stadium breathed a sigh of relief. Wade's shot is really scary, especially his three-point hit rate is not low, although it is not as accurate as James.

Candice, who took the time to fly to the scene to support James, also quietly stroked her chest. She knew James and wade at the same time and was friends with Wade, but compared with James, Wade certainly supported James.

Boozer protected the backboard and handed the ball to McGinnis. McGinnis took the ball outside the right three-point line, made an emergency stop, made a fake shot, attracted Wade's forward defense, then collected the ball and passed it to James behind. James pulled up the ball is a three-point.

At this time, it was too late for wade to rush forward to defend, and Eddie Jones was blocked by James by McGinnis, just to get the shot space.

A steady three-point shot.

Wade came with the ball, got rid of McGinnis's pursuit and defense with the help of Odom's cover, and made a breakthrough under the basket around Odom.

Boozer took a step forward to make up defense, but he was shaken by Wade's fake action, and wade quickly jumped over. When he turned to catch up, Wade took off and scored a hook layup.

"Wade is really great. His breakthrough can tear the Cavaliers' defense." Kenny Smith exclaimed.

"The heat has found a treasure. Riley has a good eye. Maybe next season he will be able to hold the position of the heat's number one star. " Buckley agreed.

The Heat fans have burst out with enthusiasm, and the sound is going to blow up the whole stadium.

"Wade! Wade! Wade!... "

In the cheers of the fans, the Cavaliers have quickly sent the ball out.

When James was running with the ball, he saw that McGinnis was almost down to the left three-point line. He quickly hit the ground and passed the ball. After McGinnis received the ball, he didn't stop the ball. He turned the ball and sent it to the middle. Boozer was going down the basket and just caught the ball and scored it.

"The Cavaliers' role players are playing much better than before. They can cooperate and at least help LeBron share some pressure at the beginning. This is rare in the first two games. " Buckley analyzed.

"So now the Cavaliers have taken the lead. If they can play like this all the time, LeBron will be a lot easier. But if the Cavaliers want to win, it still depends on LeBron. The output of role players alone is not enough. " Kenny Smith interface said.

The heat attacked here, and the basketball hit Grant's hand under the basket, but he was blocked by big Z. he didn't get a shot. He had to hand over the ball to wade on the outside. Wade broke in with the ball, and James made up for it. But Wade didn't choose to force his shot this time, but passed it to Odom on the other side of the basket. Odom split the buckle with one hand.

The heat are also playing offensive cooperation. The two sides are in a stalemate.

However, the Cavaliers' role players found their hand, which made the heat dare not trap James unscrupulously.

James received the pass on the left flank, faced Eddie Jones, held the ball, swung left and right, put the ball, dribbled the ball under his hip, and then broke under the basket against Jones.

Wade quickly retracted and caught James with Jones.

James hit the ground and passed the ball between them to newbell who cut the basket from the line. Newbell dunked and scored.

It was Wade. Wade broke into the Cavaliers' basket, received the ball under the basket, shook Boozer's defense, and then jumped up and layup after Boozer took off and fell.

Paul Silas called a pause, hoping to find a way to defend Wade.

Wade broke out in several consecutive games, which made the Cavaliers unbearable.

James proposed to let him defend Wade. He and wade have fought alone for many times, and Wade has completely taught James his breakthrough skills, so James is the player most familiar with Wade's basketball skills in the Cavaliers. In addition, James's physical strength is better than Wade. Even if he can't be faster than Wade, he is not slow.

So Silas thought about James' proposal and nodded in agreement.

After James goes to defend Wade, newbell will change to defend Eddie Jones. Newbell has some advantages in height, is not as strong as Jones, and may not be able to keep up with him in speed, but Jones is a little old after all, and can't run all over the court like Wade.

After pausing back, James got space on the outside and shot three-point shots.

Wade took the ball and James jumped directly to defend Wade. He didn't intend to give Wade any space. This is the experience gained in the single fight with Wade.

He tried his best to exert physical confrontation on Wade, suppressed Wade with a strong body, and did not give wade the first step of easy breakthrough.

There is no doubt that James' defense of Wade is better than newbell. Wade failed to break through this attack. James had to pass the ball to Odom, who couldn't make a jump shot after Boozer's pursuit.

James waved his fists twice in a row. Such defense worked.

Big Z took the rebound and gave it to James to push. James took the ball to the left flank. Newbell came out to give him a cover to block Eddie Jones chasing him.

James took the ball around newbell and burst into the basket. Jones strode around newbell and continued to chase James. Grant under the basket also jumped out and blocked up to intercept.

But James had taken off. He held the ball in the air with one hand and pressed the other hand towards grant. He leaned on grant and slammed the basketball into the basket.

Candice jumped up from the sideline and applauded James hard.

"Lebron's physical quality is awesome, bouncing to strength, strength enough! This dunk is wonderful! " Barkley shouted.

After James scored the goal, he clenched his fists and shouted a few times. Then he pulled his shirt and patted his chest several times. He pressed his hands down continuously and raised his knees in turn.

He felt that he hadn't done this celebration for a long time. He had to get it back after playing in the past two games.

That kind of indomitable momentum, that kind of hegemony to win!

The heat attacked. Jones played newbell with the ball. After two false swings, newbell strongly attacked the right road, but newbell quickly took a step backward and continued to hold his defensive position.

Jones passed the ball to wade outside the three-point line.

James stood up and said, "before, you said you would take a victory in my territory, and today I will take a victory here."

Wade puffed his cheeks and didn't speak. He responded with action. After dribbling the ball under his crotch, he changed hands and forced his left hand to stick to James's body.

Big Z and Boozer under the basket formed a human wall, and wade took off and threw.

With a slap, James had caught up and jumped up, and the man fanned Wade's ball out of the air.

"Wow! That is great! LeBron! LeBron, you're my hero! How wonderful! " Candice put her hands to her mouth, trumpeted and shouted at the field.

James heard Candice's cry, reached to his lips and blew Candice a kiss.

Candice was as happy as a child, bouncing around in place.

"It can be seen that LeBron has a strong desire to win!" Buckley turned to Kenny Smith.

Smith nodded. "That's true!"
