Two days later, the Cavaliers competed with the Heat again.
In the second game, the Heat played more targeted.
The opening is still based on O'Neal's inside line as the main offensive point, the outside line resolutely uses Eddie Jones as the fort, and Wade frequently enters and exits as a series of players inside and outside.
In this way, the Heat established an offensive axis of "O'Neal-Wade-Jones", and the entire offense was much more orderly than in the first quarter.
O'Neal also managed to transfer the ball as soon as possible when encountering a double-team, to prevent the ball from being intercepted by the Cavaliers' players.
In this case, the Heat dominated the first half of the game, leading the Cavaliers by 8 points 50-42.
In the second half, the Cavaliers suddenly presented their long-lost shark-slashing tactics.
O'Neal made 8 consecutive free throws and only hit 2 goals.
During this period of time, the Heat’s game rhythm was disrupted, and the Cavaliers took the opportunity to have Miller, James, and Shentong hit three consecutive three-pointers, plus Wagner’s breakthrough layup, and a wave of 11-2. climax.
Helpless, the Heat had to temporarily replace O'Neal, who was out of balance.
Mourning's prestige is still there, but it is indeed powerless.
The deterrence of the Heat's inside line dropped sharply.
Big Z and Gooden began to take advantage in the interior, and Shentong and James' breakthroughs were also more efficient than the first half.
When the Heat re-appointed O'Neal, the Cavaliers had gone from being behind by 8 points to leading by 10 points.
In the fourth quarter, with Miller's precise three-pointers and Shentong's back-up singles, the Cavaliers always maintained the score difference at 8-10 points.
The desperate Heat adopted a full-court lead defense tactic. Wagner was double-doubled by the Heat's Damon Jones and Wade before halftime.
The Heat’s sudden change in tactics caused them to play a 6-0 climax, closing the gap.
Paul Silas sent Snow, and let Shentong and James take part of the dribble, which smoothly broke the Heat's full-court press.
As Shen Tong broke through to the basket behind the pass James succeeded in a jumper, the Cavaliers sealed the victory.
104-94, the Cavaliers took a 2-0 lead and won two consecutive home games!
In the first two games, from the scene, the book strength difference between the Cavaliers and the Heat is not big, but the handling of the key ball and the transfer of the ball, the Cavaliers have a certain advantage.
This is certainly due to the role of Shentong and James.
After the game, Van Gundy said to reporters: "Thank God, we can finally return to Miami to play. I hope that in the next games, we can play one by one, win the home game, and then take 2-2. The score is back here."
With 29 points and 16 rebounds, O'Neal, who made 4 of 13 free throws, expressed his opinion, saying: "I want to practice free throws when I want to go back, and train my shooting feel. In fact, during training, I made free throws. The rate has always been above 50%, and sometimes it can reach 70%. Today’s free throws are a bit abnormal, but when we return to Miami, we will return everything we endured here intact."
Wade, who was almost completely overwhelmed on the field, looked serious after the game. He simply said "Let's see you in Miami" and boarded the bus without looking back.
The third battle can be described as a thunder and fire!
The Heat also have a group of very enthusiastic fans.
In the strong cheers at home, the Heat played the most exciting first half of this year's playoffs.
O'Neal and Wade even completed each other's empty dunk!
The Heat established a 15-point lead in the first half and ended the first half 63-48.
The second half began with Shentong’s two consecutive shots.
However, the pit dug by the Cavaliers in the first half was too deep. Even if they recovered their touch in the second half, they were unable to lead the score.
103-113, they lost to the outstanding Heat in their first game away.
O'Neal contributed 33 points, 17 rebounds, 5 assists and 3 blocks in this game.
Wade also scored 21 points, 7 rebounds and 7 assists.
Although Shentong scored 30 points in this game, other players lacked support.
The second head James only scored 15 points, 5 rebounds and 5 assists, and Wagner scored 12 points.
In the fourth battle, both sides used their strength to feed themselves.
Shentong broke out completely in this game, and 18 martial arts were used one by one.
In the first quarter, Shentong mainly used to break through the ball to tear open the Heat's defense, and at the same time help teammates find the feel.
Each time he saw Shentong rushing in, O'Neal always waited eagerly, but failed again and again, but his defense was torn apart by Shentong's sudden points.
In the second quarter, Shentong strengthened his personal offense.
After a breakthrough, Shentong easily completed the layup in front of O'Neal.
"Hey, buddy, what are you doing? Don't you put pressure on this ball? Just watch him get on?" Wade couldn't help complaining to Big Brother.
O'Neal spread out his hands and said helplessly: "I think he has been breaking through the ball, who knew he would score by himself."
"Concentrate your attention, don't take it for granted!"
O'Neal did not answer, hands on hips, his eyes showed dissatisfaction with Wade.
Even if it is my own problem, it is not your turn to teach me.
What's more, you haven't reached the level of Kobe!
In the third quarter, the Heat resolutely double-teamed Shentong, who had a good feel.
But Shentong’s basket is too accurate.
In , you can use your teammate’s screen to find a gap and shoot directly; you can retreat and hold the ball on the bottom line. When your teammate opens the space, you can hit Wade on the back.
The suspense has been lost before the game is over.
Shentong scored 45 points in this game.
111-95, the Cavaliers achieved a valuable away victory.
It was from this game that a word between Shentong and Wade began to spread.
"Eat and sleep abuse Wade" has become the standard for Shentong in this round of the series.
With a score of 3-1, the Cavaliers returned to the home court.
Because the big score in the conference finals on the other side is also 3-1, and the teams holding the match points are playing at home, the focus of the world is on who can eliminate opponents 4-1 at home and advance to the finals.
In the much-anticipated game, Shentong showed the style of the scoring champion.
made 20 of 30 shots, including 6 of 9 three-pointers, 9 of 9 free throws, and scored 55 points.
High scores coupled with such efficient scoring efficiency, the Heat have no players that can compete with them.
102-90, the Cavaliers ended the series 4-1 at home, won the Eastern Conference championship, and entered the NBA Finals for the first time in history!
When the referee blew the final whistle, the inside and outside of the stadium suddenly became a sea of joy.
People are celebrating the hard-won championship.
Although it is only an Eastern Conference championship, it is also an honor never seen in the history of the Cavaliers.
Only one step away from the championship, the fans of the global Cavaliers sleepless night.
All major website forums are full of news and topics about the Cavaliers defeating the Heat, winning the Eastern Conference championship and entering the finals.
As soon as the game ended, O’Neal, Wade, Jones and others returned directly to the locker room and refused any media interviews.
Stan Van Gundy said helplessly at the press conference after the game: “We thought that Shentong’s 45-point performance in the last game would no longer be possible, but we didn’t expect that it was just a warm-up for Shen. We have a lesson."
Van Gundy praised the pass, and he did not forget to cheer up his team.
"This is only the first season we have run in. There are many aspects that need to be improved. I believe that with the playoff experience this season, we will achieve better results next year."
Paul Silas, who is also the team's coach, is not hesitating to love his disciples.
"Shentong is the kind of star who will feel that God is looking after you if you meet one in your coaching career. His performance no longer needs me to explain and explain more. I want to say, Shentong's performance tonight It’s awesome, you can’t ask him more. In addition, LeBron, Dajuan and others played very well. We defeated strong opponents and won the Eastern Conference championship, but this is not the time for us to relax. , A greater challenge awaits us."
"We are only one step away from the championship."
The Suns in the first half of the season were severely repaired by the Spurs 4-1.
The Spurs proved with victory that in the playoffs, teams with better defenses can win.
At the same time, they can also play fast.
In the 5 games of both sides, the teams scored more than 100 points, which proved that the pace of the game is fast, but the Spurs can easily hold it.
In the first round of the spear and shield contest, the Suns overtook the Grizzlies.
But in the second round of the Spurs, the Suns failed to break the shield and were defeated by Lushan Bailongba.
Although they lost, the Suns were not discouraged.
This is just their first season together. They have jumped from the bottom of the Western Conference to No. 1 in the league, so they believe that after the offseason run-in and the experience of this season's playoffs, the Suns next season will It will be even more terrifying.
The daze who won the Western Conference championship still did not show a happy smile.
When facing the reporter's interview, he said blankly: "We are only one step away from the championship."
There are 3 days left before the first game of the finals.
A reporter from China Sports Daily was able to enter the home court of the Cleveland Cavaliers for an exclusive interview.
The strength of the Chinese consortium is beyond your imagination.
As soon as reporter Wang Jia entered Gund Arena, he met the team's head coach Paul Silas.
"Hi Paul, hello."
"Hello there."
"Paul, your team will be playing against the Spurs soon. I know that you have reached the finals for the first time, and your opponents are rich teams with championship experience. Are your players before the game? Will be a little nervous?"
Silas nodded and replied: "Indeed, many players frowned when they heard that our opponent was the Spurs, but to be honest, I was more nervous than them. You know, this champion is for Cleveland. In terms of what it means, we have too many expectations. But."
Silas changed the front and sold off.
"But what?" Wang Jia couldn't help asking.
"However, my boys quickly overcome their psychological barriers. I am very satisfied with their recent performance in training. I believe in them and in myself. Although there are still a few days before the game, I think we have done a good job. Ready."
"There are so many fans in China who like you."
"Thank you." Silas made a gesture of putting his hands together.
"I heard you say that you are confident now, I believe the fans should be able to relax. That's right."
Wang Jia looked around and said, "Paul, has your training ended? Why is there no one on the court?"
Silas smiled and said: "Yes, our morning training has ended. They just returned to the locker room. I'm afraid they are resting right now."
"Can you take us to the dressing room?"
"of course."
Silas led the way, Wang Jia waved to the photographer, and the two hurriedly followed.
Push the door to enter.
Wang Jia and the photographer were confused at the same time.
"Toad."
"bump."
"Glasses."
"Don't."
Shen Tong, James, Wagner, and Varejao, the four are actually playing the quintessence of China-playing mahjong!
There was also a circle of people around , including Big Z, Miller, Snow and others, who all watched with gusto.
"Are they playing mahjong?"
Silas said: "Yes, this is a way for them to relax recently."
"."
Wang Jia couldn't believe it.
At this moment, Shentong’s cell phone rang.
Picking up the phone, Shen Tong pressed the hands-free button and said, "Hey, who is it?"
"Your old sister, what, are you busy now?"
"No, let's talk about it."
"Isn't Lao Shen planning to quit smoking? I was thinking about buying him an electronic cigarette, which would replace cigarettes. What do you think?"
When Shentong was connected to the hands-free, everyone swallowed while playing cards~www.ltnovel.com~ dare not make any noise.

"Very good, buy a better brand for Lao Shen, I heard from Sister Hua that Lao Shen has been suffering recently."
"Well, I'm optimistic about it. It's about 400 dollars. Let me AA with you. Then we will say it was given to him by the two of us. He must be happy and it will be more exciting to quit smoking."
"Okay, no problem, I will call you later, 60,000!"
Shen Tong pressed down the phone.
On the other end of the phone, Shen Qing blinked, but she didn't get back to her senses for a long time.
Gosh, my brother is so handsome, he wants to transfer so much to me
After the meeting, Shen Qing called again.
"Brother, I only received 200."
"That's right, 400 is half and half, isn't it 200? Wait, Ma Jiezi, touch!"
"Smelly man!!!"
Shen Tong hung up the phone, smiled and said to Wang Jia and the cameraman: "This paragraph is pinched, don't broadcast it."
