This season's NBA Eastern Conference standings can only be described in one word, and that is chaos! The Nets, Bulls and Heat have taken turns to reach the top, but they can't establish a huge lead like the Suns in the West, and the Heat, who have gradually welcomed back injured players, have reached the top with a wave of consecutive wins, but after the last loss to the remnants of the Suns, the defending champion Bucks have seen the hope of overtaking, the two teams only have 2 wins difference, once the Heat's record declines, it is likely to give up the head sheep position! In this regular season, the Heat encountered the Cavaliers who performed eye-catching this season, champion guard Lowry although the personal offensive end of the performance is not good, but the defensive end of the good to the young Garland a lesson, and Adebayo also seized the good opportunity of Aaron's absence, on the inside line to give, Hiro is in the game a single person singled out the Cavaliers' entire bench, in contrast, the team's core Butler's personal performance can only be described as decent, and finally the fourth quarter ended, The Heat beat the Cavaliers 117-105 to further cement their First Place position in the East!
Lowry, who won the first championship in team history with Leonard in the Raptors, is undoubtedly the Heat's heaviest reinforcement trade this season, this campaign against the Cavaliers, Lowry's personal offensive state is not good, the whole game only shot 4 shots 1 goal, but his performance in the tandem team attack, as well as the defensive end can fully make up for the lack of personal offense, contributing 3 points, 4 rebounds and 10 assists in the whole game.
Under Lowry's close defense, the Cavaliers' technical and tactical core Garland, did not play a performance that satisfied the fans, although from the data point of view, Garland also cut 24 points, 2 rebounds and 10 assists, but only hit 4 goals in 17 shots, three-point shots were only 6 of 1 performance, and in the face of Lowry against Garland, who was completely inferior, there were also the highest 7 mistakes in the game, while the Heat team only had 9 turnovers, which was also one of the winners and losers who decided the game.
As an important part of the Cavaliers' death of the five major systems, Aaron, absent from the game due to injury, resulting in the team's internal defensive dominance greatly reduced, which also gave Adebayo a very comfortable offensive environment, this game Adebayo played 32.4 minutes, 16 shots 11 cut 30 points, 17 rebounds and 3 steals of the big double-double data, and the best sixth man all the way to the Hiro, this campaign is a single person to pick out the Cavaliers' bench, In the 33.3 minutes of his appearance, he scored 22 points on 8-of-15 shooting, and the Cavaliers only scored a total of 33 points when they were sent to the bench early.
In contrast, Butler, as the core of the Heat, is not eye-catching enough in the game, appearing in 33.5 minutes and 14 shots to hit 7 goals, contributing 24 points, 4 rebounds, 5 assists, 3 steals and 1 block of comprehensive personal data, fans familiar with Butler are clear that he is not the kind of player who cares about personal data very much, on the contrary, the heat's game type of game is his favorite, when teammates can dominate the game, he is willing to be the green leaf of the team. It is expected that in the next regular season, the Heat can maintain such a state, not only to enter the playoffs as the first in the East, but also to go further in the playoffs!
