On February 12, Beijing time, the NBA regular season continued to unfold, and the Cavaliers challenged the Pacers away. The two teams recently struck a deal with LeVert joining the Cavaliers, which is also the starting game this time. The Pacers opened the game with full firepower, establishing a 21-point lead at one point, but the Cavaliers fought back and reversed in the final quarter. In the end, the Cavaliers beat the Pacers 120-113 on the road to achieve four consecutive wins.
This season the Cavaliers have been outstanding, beyond all expectations, and have been at the top of the East. In the trading market, they exchanged the injured Rubio for LeVert and successfully completed the reinforcement, which shows that they want to create some achievements this season. Although there is no strength to compete for the championship, there is still no suspense in reaching the playoffs, which will also allow many new stars on the team to accumulate more experience.
This time against the Pacers, the Cavaliers were passive at the beginning, completely suppressed by their opponents, and at one point were pulled apart by their opponents by 21 points. But after that, the Cavaliers played steadily, relying on Allen's advantage on the inside to continuously narrow the point gap, and fell behind by 11 points after half-time. In the second half, the Cavaliers continued to fight back, Rondo's three-pointer in the final quarter helped the team achieve a rebound, the Pacers failed to resist, and the veteran LeVert took consecutive points to help the Cavaliers lay the victory, and finally the Cavaliers completed a 21-point reversal.
The Cavaliers once again showed their resilience in this game, and with multiple points behind them, they finally completed the reversal, and the team scored in double figures with a total of 7 players. Allen had 22 points and 14 rebounds, LeVert had 22 points and five assists, Wade 13 points, O'Corro 10 points, Rondo on the bench 17 points, seven rebounds and six assists, Love 14 points and Osman 14 points.
New signing LeVert can be seen gradually entering the state, scoring 22 points on 10-of-19, playing three consecutive singles at key moments, helping the team expand its advantage to 6 points, and also making the Pacers hopeless to chase points, which is the key to the team's winning game.
In addition to the outbreak of new signings, the veterans in the Cavaliers are also important, and Rondo and Love on the bench once again scored in double figures. The Cavaliers kept Rondo on the court in the final moments, and he hit a crucial three-pointer to help the team reverse the score. In the whole game, Rondo was 7 of 6, three points were 3 of 2, he got 17 points, 7 rebounds, 6 assists, 3 steals, plus or minus +10, such an excellent performance, but also let the Lakers a little heartbroken, it was completely given to the Cavaliers in vain, I didn't expect that people still have a role.
