Chapter 123 Postseason Zhan

On May 5, US time, the second game between the Raptors and Cavaliers will continue in Cleveland.

With the first victory at the bottom, the faces of the Raptors players are much easier than in the first game.

After this game is over, Ge Feng will return to Toronto with the team to take advantage of home court against Cleveland.

The victory in the first game has virtually improved the momentum of all the Raptors team members, which is difficult to distinguish with the naked eye.

Players from both sides are making final preparations in the locker room.

"Keep what we did last game and believe in ourselves, Cleveland isn't that scary."

Before leaving, Nass will give the players psychological counseling.

DeRozan took the lead and led everyone to shout together: "We are the Raptors, the fearless knights!"

After finishing speaking, everyone took another look at Siakam.

He has to take on the heavy responsibility of defending James this time, so what his teammates are most worried about is Siakam's performance.

Siakam gritted his teeth and promised to fight James.

Nas smiled and led the players out of the locker room one after another.

Half an hour before the game, all Cavaliers players had already appeared on the court, warming up in advance.

For the Cavaliers, this game must not be lost, otherwise it may really be overturned by this young Raptors.

James is expressionless today. Whenever James stops joking with his teammates, everyone knows that James is going to fight.

Losing the first game was a huge lesson for the Cavaliers.

They underestimated Ge Feng's lethality, and even more underestimated Ge Feng's key ball ability.

How to limit Ge Feng was the focus of the Cavaliers' discussion yesterday.

After the opening ceremony, the starting lineups of both sides were released one after another.

The Cavaliers still have the same lineup as before, but the Raptors have changed again.

Siakam appeared in the starting position, which is incredible.

But seeing Ge Feng appearing in the starting lineup, the sharp-eyed commentator understood the key point: "The Raptors want to train Siakam and Ge Feng as the cornerstone of the new team! Looking at the Raptors' lineup, could it be that they worked hard on Siakam in this game?"

Ibaka and Thompson's jumper.

Ibaka lost to Thompson on the jumper for the second time.

It is still the Cavaliers who attack first, James holds the ball, and his desire to attack is extremely strong.

Siakam stopped in front of James.

James played singles, and Siakam's long arms interfered with James enough.

But James not only meets the frame, but his ability to back the frame is still excellent.

James left Siakam with a back view, and it was difficult for Siakam to threaten James' ball.

James turned around and shot a jumper, and the ball crashed into the net.

Siakam was a little annoyed. After all, he still underestimated the offensive ability of the thirty-year-old man.

"It's okay, Siakam, you defend very well, keep it up!" Seeing Siakam upset, Ge Feng immediately sent comfort.

Siakam nodded, and he needed encouragement from his teammates at this time.

Lowry broke through quickly with the ball, Owen defended very well, and Lowry hit the ball with iron.

Love got the rebound.

The Cavaliers pushed forward quickly, James took the lead, and Irving passed the ball directly from the backcourt to the frontcourt after seeing it.

Siakam blocked in front of James, but James chose to ignore Siakam's size and slammed into him abruptly for a layup.

The goal was scored, and Quicken Loans Arena fell into a sea of ​​carnival.

The Raptors found a young teenager and wanted to limit the league's No. 1 James, which is really a dream.

Ge Feng ran to Siakam's side again, clapped his hands with him and said: "Good defense, continue to confront him head-on, James won't last long in this state."

This is how the Raptors limit James.

James, who is fully fired, is indeed unstoppable, but if the Raptors keep letting James do his best every time he scores, then at his 34-year-old age, he will soon be physically unable to support it.

James understands the Raptors' intentions, but he still has to do his best.

Not for anything else, just for his eyes, only the victory of this game.

The Raptors attacked, Ge Feng caught the ball, and JR stuck to it.

The Cavaliers began to be afraid of Ge Feng's three-pointer, and sent JR to defend tightly at the beginning of the game.

Ge Feng passed JR with one step, but Irving and James defended very quickly. Ge Feng was shocked and didn't even have a chance to pass the ball.

Ge Feng was forced to pull back, but James and Owen did not return, and the three directly surrounded Ge Feng.

In the chaos, James slapped the ball off with his big hand, Irving and JR launched a fast break, and finally Irving completed a layup.

6: 0!

"The Cavaliers lost a game at home, came back in the second game, and completely let the opponent see what the real Cleveland is."

"In this game, the Cavaliers found a way to restrain Ge Feng. Next, let's see if the Raptors can solve this problem." The commentator said passionately.

The Raptors attacked again, and this time Lowry slowed down and controlled the game.

The Raptors' players began to run wildly.

Siakam knew that he could not have a scoring opportunity in front of James, so he simply became a blue-collar player, designed to delay defenders for Ge Feng and DeRozan.

James' speed is very fast. He was like a hungry wolf in this game, staring at every player of the Raptors.

DeRozan received the ball, James and Love directly pinched DeRozan.

DeRozan gave the ball to an empty Siakam.

As soon as Siakam was about to attack, he noticed James behind him who was ready to give him a big hat at any time.

Siakam didn't dare to shoot.

He passed the ball back to Lowry again.

The Raptors' offense is deadlocked, and James' threat on the court is too great!
Lowry gestured for him to come himself.

Owen moved his legs quickly, guarding Lowry seriously.

Ge Feng got out of the pick-and-roll, and after Lowry opened it, he went straight to the small and big, and completed the throw in front of JR.

The ball bounced a few times on the rim, but still went in.

2: 6.

The Raptors players finally breathed a sigh of relief.

The Cavaliers attacked, and James asked for the ball in the frontcourt.

Siakam kept complaining, and Ge Feng decided to help him defend James.

The Cavaliers want to take advantage of James' physical strength and seize this point to fight to the death.

Siakam followed what Bai Nuo taught him yesterday, half-circling forward to defend James, so that he could only go to the basket to kill.

When James turned around, Ge Feng appeared just right.

James deserves to be No.1 in the league. His way of handling double teams is obviously ten grades higher than that of Antetokounmpo.

James immediately found the open JR and immediately passed the ball.

Lowry hurriedly defended, but JR was high, and Lowry's interference was very limited.

"Shh."

The Cavaliers hit another three-pointer.

9: 2.

At the beginning, the Cavaliers gave the Raptors a big blow!
