The same is a 1 to 3 situation, but a little different from the Warriors, the Nets are the worse record in the series, which means that the fifth game of the series was played in Cleveland.
There are no more difficult matches for away opponents, and this is one of the reasons for Tang Tiansuo because he has no choice.
Cleveland's fans are enthusiastic, but this time they are not for Tang Tian, but for the home team to eliminate Tang Tian's team.
At home, there is no match higher than this odds.
"We don't have any retreat. Don't think about the future games. Just tonight, take out all your energy and all your energy to turn the game into hand-to-hand combat, spare no effort, wait until the end of the season, we have time to rest!
In the locker room before the game, Tang Tian made a final mobilization to the players.
In this situation, he doesn't know what the final result will be, but they must work hard tonight, not only to win, but also to keep themselves from regret.
The speed loan stadium is full of fans, and fans are waving various logos to cheer for the team.
Tonight they look forward to waiting for the moment the Cavaliers advance.
However, there were still scattered Nets fans at the scene. They wore the Nets' black jerseys, and they were particularly noticeable in a yellow crowd.
The Nets' starting lineup was introduced, with Deron and Jimmy Butler on the perimeter, Jefferson Jr. and Yi Jianlian on the front line, and center Jokic.
When such a starter was introduced, there was still some commotion on the scene, which was a big move for the Nets.
After the Nets was the Cavaliers, the host lengthened the volume, and the cheers at the scene shattered the sky.
The Cavaliers' starting five are the same as before, with outside Owen and Smith, forwards James and Love, center Thompson.
Yi Jianlian returned the ball to the Nets halftime, and the visiting team led the attack.
Still Jokic's organization outside the three-point line.
Gordon was absent, the Nets lost one point, Jefferson had almost no offensive ability, and the Cavaliers' defense shrank very little. Deron finally took the ball and made a three-pointer.
Thompson struggled to get off the defensive rebound.
James held the ball to the frontcourt and gave it to Irving.
Looking at this situation, it was not enough to win the last game. James is ready to let Irving directly end the game.
Irving held the ball and the other players followed.
But unlike the previous games, this time it was neither Deron nor Gordon who stood in front of him, but Butler.
Butler is a forward swinger. Although the team needs him to play the third position more, his defensive ability and speed to play the second position is not a problem at all.
Irving alternately dribbled with his left and right hands and suddenly started the change of direction.
Butler's prediction was accurate, he halved in advance to grab the defensive position, and Owen's crossover failed to pass.
But Irving still had a move, a sudden start of the ball collection, and a "Buddha" action came directly.
But Butler's defensive skills are too solid, and he is still in the defensive position.
Irving had no success in a row, directly accelerating to Butler, then quickly turned around with his axis and chose a drifting basket.
But Butler also took off at the same time, almost reaching for Irving's shot.
"boom!"
Owen encountered a high-intensity defense and shot out of the box.
Yi Jianlian rushed over and took the rebound.
The Nets attacked the frontcourt, Yi Jianlian's empty layup also slipped out of the basket under Thompson interference.
Love rushed over to take off the defensive rebounds, gave Irving, Irving arrived in the frontcourt, James continued to greet his teammates to pull away.
This is going to be rigid.
Owen again confronted Butler, this time he seized the opportunity and accelerated away from Butler and rushed to the basket.
But before he shot, Jefferson had snatched up and blocked his way out.
Fortunately, Irving's vision is not bad. Looking back at the moon and passing the ball directly to the middle, James will speed up after receiving the ball.
Just didn't wait for him to rush, Butler pulled behind him, Jefferson Jr. tried to stop in front, and stopped James stiffly.
The referee blew Jefferson's block and James got two free throws.
Butler and Jefferson were not small, but the referee only gave an ordinary foul, which caused a boo of fans at the scene.
James shook his hand hard before making a free throw.
"boom!"
The first penalty was a little short, but you can see that Butler was a bit hard.
"boom!"
James adjusted the intensity a bit, but the penalty was a bit heavy, the ball bounced high and the rebound was taken off by Jokic.
There was a restless scene.
The two teams played for two minutes, but it turned out to be nothing.
Deron went to the frontcourt and gave the ball to Jokic in the low post. Jokic turned and played Thompson. He turned beautifully and shot. Thompson clapped his hands but the referee did not whistle. Jokic also missed his last shot.
Thompson received a defensive rebound, and Jokic asked the referee to complain that he had not responded.
"Back off! Back off!"
Tang Tian reminded the team members loudly at this time.
The Nets are going to fight hand-to-hand tonight, and judging from the referee's penalties, tonight's penalties are relatively loose, which is in their favor.
It doesn't make sense to complain in such a situation, they just need to continue dragging the game to hand-to-hand combat.
James went to the frontcourt and gave the ball to Irving. Irving did not force Butler this time, but instead greeted JR Smith to come and play.
However, the Nets obviously took precautions, but Butler never grabbed consecutive positions, and Smith's pick-and-roll was unsuccessful.
However, Owen was very capable of grasping opportunities, and in the moment when Butler grabbed the ball, he was the first to succeed and the ball was passed.
Yi Jianlian has already stood in the basket. Irving didn't choose to pass, but he sideways avoided the layup.
But Jefferson came back at this time and interfered in the air.
Irving folded and dodged the layup, and he had shots against Jefferson and Yi Jianlian.
This ball was very difficult. Irving avoided the block with a soft body, but the ball was obviously a bit off after the shot. The ball jumped out of the basket and was obtained by Yi Jianlian.
Owen went to the referee for a few sentences and didn't get a response ~ EbookFREE.me ~ The intensity of the confrontation between the two sides was unprecedented, which really turned into a hand-to-hand battle.
Delong gasped for the ball in the frontcourt. This ultra-high-intensity confrontation consumes a lot of energy on both sides.
He also did not organize, and directly signaled to open up for singles Irving.
Hand-to-hand scoring is difficult, but singles seem more efficient.
Sinking down the center of gravity, continuously changing the direction of the corssover, rushing to the basket under the pressure of Owen, seeing Thompson coming over to assist in the defense, and suddenly stopped the small throw.
His confrontation was strong, Owen couldn't jump at all, and the ball crossed Thompson's defense.
But at this moment, it was James again, who flew back to the basket, and rewarded Delong with a spiked cap directly from behind!
The fans on the scene cheered for a while, but looked up to see the score on the field, still 0 to 0!
