Jr. can perform quickly without the control of the Texas Twins.

Looking at Bradley and others, Walken Dean has created an almost perfect lineup for the Nets.

It's a great sense of accomplishment when you watch the lineup you created perform perfectly.

In contrast, he also felt a little emotional.

Now the Pacers he's on is in constant decline, and there's not much room for maneuver.

The game on the field continued. After James started to exert his strength, the scores of the two teams fell into a stalemate.

After the first quarter, the score on the field was 32 to 41.

The Nets ended the first quarter with a 9-point lead.

At the beginning of the second quarter, Karl asked Durant to come on and lead the team. He originally wanted to take the opportunity to continue to open up the score.

But Josh Smith, who was put on the bench for the Cavaliers, performed well on both offense and defense, and actually helped the Cavaliers maintain the point difference.

This point difference was maintained until the midfield.

At halftime, the score on the field was 48 to 58.

In terms of statistics, James of the Cavaliers contributed 16 points, 4 rebounds and 4 assists, Irving 14 points, and Josh Smith 7 points.

For the Nets, Durant contributed 22 points and Lin Ying had 10 points, 5 rebounds and 5 assists.

"LeBron played very well today."

In the stands, Bird commented on James' halftime performance.

Jordan smiled and said nothing.

Bird has a big heart, but he's not.

He liked Kobe because Kobe worked very hard and would call him at two or three o'clock in the middle of the night just to discuss a basketball technique.

He likes Lin Ying. Although Lin Ying is not that paranoid, he sees a lot of shadows of his own past in Lin Ying, and he is also very sweet.

But James, what he heard most related to him was that James said he wanted to surpass him and become the new goat.

…

Cavaliers locker room.

Kidd boosted the morale of the players in the locker room.

"Lin and Durant spent a lot of energy in the first half. To maintain this intensity, we only need to play a wave in the second half to turn the situation around."

Kidd is still very judgmental.

The Nets' "Brooklyn Time" requires Lin Ying and Durant to work hard at the same time.

But in the first half, at least Durant's consumption was very high.

So in the third quarter, just relying on Lin Ying, they had a chance to make a splash and overtake the score.

"Iman, keep an eye on Jr..."

Kidd began to make key arrangements for the second half of the game.

…

Nets locker room.

"Kevin, how is your physical fitness?"

Lin Ying turned to Durant and asked.

A 10-point difference was not enough to establish a victory. They still needed to play "Brooklyn time" in the third quarter.

“Very abundant.”

Durant replied firmly.

It was indeed very abundant. Although he scored a lot in the first half, most of them were catch-and-shoot. This is different from the singles he played when he was with the Thunder.

"Then let's do it in one go."

Lin Ying said, clenching his fist and reaching towards Durant.

Durant also clenched his fist, and the two fist bumped.

Although the first game of the series is more of a test, if it can give the Cavaliers a start, it will be of great help to the situation in the series.

And with a half-time lead, they only need one more hit to win the game.

…

After the halftime break, the players from the two teams, each with their own ideas, returned to the field.

And from their faces, we can actually see the same expression, that is, they are determined to win the game.

This expression was projected on the large LED screen, and Jordan and Bird became more interested after seeing it.

It seems that the third quarter of the game will be even more exciting than the first half.

"Larry, let's make a bet? The winner will be treated to dinner later."

Jordan turned around and said.

"What to bet on?"

A little gambling brings pleasure, and Bird naturally doesn't understand the style.

"I bet the Nets will pull away in this quarter."

Jordan spoke first.

"Then I bet the Cavaliers will narrow the score in this quarter or keep the score the same."

After Bird finished speaking, Jordan couldn't help but laugh.

In terms of probability, Bird's interval is obviously larger.

But after he finished laughing, he stretched out his little finger and made a hook with Bird, and the bet was concluded.

It's a pity that cigars can't be smoked in the arena, otherwise it would make the next game more interesting.

"beep!"

After a short break, the second half of the game officially started.

The Nets attack first.

As soon as Durant came up, he caught the ball and shot from mid-range.

This ball opportunity is very good, Durant is sure of it.

"when!"

Then strike the iron.

The rebound was picked off by Love, and the Cavaliers went on a fast break. Irving made a layup and scored two points.

The point difference was reduced to single digits.

Lin Ying broke through in the frontcourt to attract a flanking attack, and passed the ball to the opposite corner Bradley.

An open three-point opportunity.

Bradley caught the ball and made a decisive move.

The trajectory of the ball is very positive.

"when!"

It’s a pity that the basketball also missed the frame!

However, Lin Ying successfully judged the landing point of the basketball and made a flying tip-in.

The timing of this shot was perfect.

But after the ball bounced on the basket twice, it suddenly bounced out again!

Then the rebound was picked off by James who rushed back.

The Cavaliers launched another wave of defensive counterattacks. This time, James followed up and received a pass from Irving, and scored with a tomahawk dunk!

52 to 58!

Less than two minutes into the second half, the Cavaliers narrowed the point difference to 6 points in the blink of an eye!

In the stands, Bird was already smiling from ear to ear.

Jordan's poisonous milk is even more poisonous than Barkley's, and more importantly, Jordan doesn't have the same self-awareness as Barkley!

On the court, Lin Ying suddenly remembered something and unconsciously raised his head and looked towards the audience.

I almost forgot, Jordan is on the court tonight!

Now that he has such a good relationship with Jordan, Jordan must support him.

So even if you don't know what Jordan and Bird were talking about, the continuous ironing just now is very illustrative!
