In this season's NBA Eastern Conference, the Cavaliers, who have not completed a blockbuster deal, have become a veritable dark horse team by relying on their own large lineup, after the end of the first 48 regular season games, they have achieved an impressive record of 29 wins and 19 losses, ranking fifth in the Eastern Conference standings, and in this regular season, the Cavaliers encountered the defending champion Bucks, who temporarily ranked fourth in the standings. And they only lead the Cavaliers behind them by 0.5 wins, which means that as long as the Cavaliers can win this game, they will surpass the defending champions in the standings, but to achieve this goal, the Cavaliers must limit the play of the alphabet brother in the game, after the game began, their three-high lineup achieved a very obvious effect on the defensive end, and finally relied on the better performance at both ends of the attack and defense, the Cavaliers won the Bucks 115-99, and while winning three consecutive wins, they also successfully surpassed the defending champion and climbed to the fourth place in the East!
Due to Markkanen's ankle injury, the Cavaliers lined up the three-high lineup of Allen, Mobley and Wade, and the advantage of height and arm span made the Bucks' interior offense encounter very large resistance, the whole game Alphabet Brother played 29.2 minutes, only got 13 shots, although also got 26 points, 9 rebounds, 3 assists and 1 steal of the personal data, but the whole game Alphabet Brother also had as many as 7 mistakes.
As the absolute technical and tactical core of this team, once the alphabet brother does not play well in the game, the Bucks will be difficult to play the overall offense of the clouds and water, this battle Middleton performance is quite normal, 15 shots hit 8 goals, including 3 of 7 three-point shots to get 21 points, but there were also 3 mistakes, and Holliday only scored 4 points in the whole game, but there were 2 mistakes, the number of mistakes in the whole game reached 19 times than the Cavaliers 7 times, giving the opponent more opportunities to fight back, That's the main reason they lost.
Although the Cavaliers have built a large lineup, their three-point shooting firepower is also very strong, and in this game, the core of the backcourt Garand has done a very good job of stringing together the team's offense, hitting 7 goals in 12 shots in the 25.6 minutes of his appearance, contributing 19 points and 8 assists, and personally outperforming championship guard Holliday.
The Cavaliers scored double-digit points as many as 6 players in the whole game, including the substitute Loew and Osman's three-pointers were hot, the two hit a total of 11 three-pointers and bombed 48 points, the offensive firepower of the second lineup was the key to the Cavaliers' ability to win the card battle, in addition, in the game, Tanhua Lang Mobrey also played a very good personal performance, cutting 16 points, 7 rebounds and 2 blocks, and in the second quarter of the Morbury's buckle letter brother scene, It left a very deep impression on the fans.
The new season of the Eastern Conference can be said to be a group of heroes, the Bucks led by alphabet brothers want to complete the defense of the title is not an easy task, I hope that the Cavaliers who laugh at the end of this game can continue their dark horse nature in the playoffs!
