On February 12, Beijing time, the NBA's new season regular season continued. At this stage, the Cleveland Cavaliers, which have a record of 34 wins and 21 losses, have also ushered in a new game, away to challenge the Pacers in the reconstruction stage. After three years of dormancy, the Cavaliers finally showed their fangs again and launched a charge to the playoffs. Perhaps, in the eyes of the vast majority of people, Cleveland has no proud superstar players, but they can get to the third place in the East with the help of the young players in the team.
If nothing else, they will also be a strong roadblock for the favourites to win the Title in the East. This time, the Pacers were challenged, and the cavaliers' new signing LeVert also came with the team and came to the home of the old club. At the beginning of the game, the Pacers quickly got into shape, Hield played the first quarter of 12 minutes of play, sending 6+2+5 statistics, Halliburton also had 12 points, 1 rebound, 1 assist and 2 steals, and Duarte, who handed over 8+2+2, and Brisseter, who had 7 points, 3 rebounds and 2 assists.
With the team's starters threatening one after another, the Pacers began with a 47-28 score to take a 19-point lead. However, after entering the second quarter of the showdown, the Cavaliers were also able to counterattack in time. Allen shot 10 points and 4 rebounds with 100 percent of 5 shots, and Rondo, who came off the bench, also had 5 points, 3 rebounds, 1 assist and 2 steals, leading the team to a 35-27 score and recovering the 8 points behind in the first quarter. At the end of the first half of the game, the gap between the two sides was narrowed to 11 points, and the Cavaliers still had the possibility of achieving a score reversal.
The Cavaliers, who had achieved good results in chasing points, chased points again, played a full-fledged state in the third quarter, and regained the 3 points behind in the first half with a 25-22 score. In the crucial final quarter of the showdown, the Cavaliers who have achieved points in succession have played more and more smoothly. Le Vere sent eight points in the late quarter, and substitute Rondo even gave up 10 points and two rebounds in the full 12 minutes of the game. Thanks to the opponent's starters and the succession of substitute players, the Cavaliers successfully scored a 32-17 score and won the game with an aggregate score of 120-113.
From trailing by 19 points in the first quarter, but then gradually chasing points and leading by 7 points in a single game to win the game, the Cavaliers achieved a big reversal of 26 points, which is really remarkable. Looking back at the game, the overall state of the Cavaliers players is still relatively good, the team's seven people scored to double digits, and Allen even contributed a double-double data of 22 points and 14 rebounds. The former opponent in front of the former owner LeVert did not spare his hands, but handed over 22 points and 5 assists, making a lot of contributions on the scoring end and the organizational offensive end.
It is worth affirming that the team that should be praised most in this game is the veteran Rondo who came off the bench. He played the technical standards of his former peak in the 33 minutes of the bench. Yes, although he only got 7 shots in a single game, he sent out a key 17 points with an efficient shooting rate of 6 of 7 shots, as well as 7 rebounds and 6 assists, helping the team to beat the opponent's key 10 points. Statistics don't lie, and Rondo has an indelible credit for the team's reversal!
