Beijing time on January 3, the NBA regular season, today the Cavaliers sat at home to usher in the Challenge of the Pacers, because Rubio and Sexton season reimbursement, coupled with Garland's violation of the safety agreement, the current Cavaliers do not have a decent backcourt player, and the Pacers side is also enough, Brogdon and Le Vere are missing the game, in this case the game directly became a contest between the two sides, and finally the Cavaliers with the excellent performance of the inside 4 towers, led the team to a 108-104 narrow victory over the Pacers.
The Cavaliers' four towers all scored in double figures: Jarrett Allen scored 18 points, 11 rebounds, 2 assists and 3 blocks of 6 of 12 in the game, facing Turner's defense Aaron also did not have the previous terrible offensive efficiency, but Mobley stood out very well, 11 of 16 shots in the game took 24 points, 9 rebounds and 4 assists, Markkanen as a space cannon, the efficiency of this campaign is not good, 5 of 12 shots, 2 of 6 three points, 12 points, 6 rebounds, 2 assists and 1 block data.
However, Love has contributed to the outside line very efficiently, shooting 6 of 13 from the field, 3 of 6 from three points, 20 points, 8 rebounds, 4 assists and 1 steal, it is worth mentioning that Love has a plus-minus of up to +13 in the team, last season's Love was sprayed with garbage contracts, and as a result, the Cavaliers began to win this season, and the manager also reused veterans like Love, and Love did not live up to the trust of the team, in the recent state he is very hot, he has won 20+ data in five consecutive games.
So far in the new season, Love can average 21.1 minutes per game to score 14.4 points, 7.5 rebounds and 2.1 assists, shooting 45%, three-point shooting rate of 43%, can hit 2.6 three-pointers per game, he is still one of the best interior lines in the league, if converted into 36 minutes, Love can average 24.5 points, 12.8 rebounds and 3.5 assists per game is completely an All-Star performance, seeing such a performance, it is estimated that no one will say that he is a garbage contract, right?
The Pacers were able to play with the Cavaliers to the end by Relying on Sabonis's excellent performance, he shot 10 of 16 from the field, 3 of 4 three-pointers to win 32 points, 13 rebounds, 7 assists and 1 block, after the absence of Le Vere and Brogdon, Sabonis, who got more balls, proved that he is still one of the best inside cores of the ball, the organization and scoring are excellent, and Carlisle has always wanted Brogdon to play a big core similar to Doncic's ball holding.
So Sabonis also reduced the ball, but Brogdon did not have such an ability, Carlisle's tactics did not play the expected performance, and then Brogdon was injured, and as a result, Carlisle let LeVert play the core of the ball, LeVille also did not have such ability, and this is also the reason for the poor record of the Pacers now, the Pacers can play a lot of players, but they can't play decent results, which Carlisle must carry.
In addition to Sam, the big Holliday shot 6 of 10, 6 of 9 three-pointers, 18 points, 3 rebounds and 3 assists, Turner 11-of-4, 2 of 5-of-3 points 12 points, 10 rebounds, 3 assists, 2 steals and 3 blocks, lost draft Duane Washington 17 shots 8 of the game, 3 points 9 of 4 won 20 points, 3 rebounds, 1 assist and 1 steal data, it turns out that around Ser Jr., although Turner's personal offense will be affected, but the improvement of other players is still very obvious.
With that said, what do you want to say about the knights and pacers now? Welcome to leave a message to discuss.
