NBA playoffs continue, with the Indiana Pacers heading to challenge the Cleveland Cavaliers away. At the beginning of the game, the two teams launched a fight, the Pacers blossomed inside and outside, and Mitchell fought alone. The Pacers scored a 10-0 climax at the end of the quarter to widen the score difference to double digits. In the second quarter, the Cavaliers chased the score difference to single digits, and the Pacers firmly controlled the situation on the field. This situation continued until the second half, with the Pacers making three-pointers in a row, widening the gap to double digits again, but Mitchell stepped forward to lead the team to a 20-4 climax, and the Cavaliers overtook the score in one fell swoop. Afterwards, the two teams fell into a tug-of-war, and the game suspense dragged to a critical moment. The Pacers used a three-point rain to pull the score open, and the Cavaliers were out of the way. In the end, the Pacers defeated the Cavaliers 121-112.
Cavaliers are the number one overlord in the East, sweeping the Heat 4-0 in the first round and are in a state of great momentum! Facing the aggressive Pacers, the Cavaliers waited for their hard work, but they stopped and rusted, and were in no condition! Especially outside the three-point line, the Cavaliers were the best three-pointers in the league, but they handed out a report card of only 9 of 38 shots, with a three-point shooting percentage of only 23.7%; on the other hand, the Pacers scored 19 three-pointers with a shooting percentage of 52.8%. The Cavaliers relied on strong attacks in the inside and counterattacks to prosper, scoring 70-38 in the inside and scored 22-9 in the Pacers. This is the key to them being able to smooth the double-digit score difference, but at the moment of deciding the winner, the Cavaliers still died from the Pacers' three-point rain!
The Eastern Conference No. 1 fell down in the semi-finals G1, suffering its first defeat in the playoffs this season. It was shot through by the Pacers' three-pointer on the defensive end. The offensive end was too inefficient in fighting! Garland was unable to play due to injury, and Mitchell took the lead, but switched to lone wolf mode again. The lone wolf played for 33 minutes, made 13 of 30 shots (11 of 3-pointers), 6 of 9 free throws, scored 33 points + 5 rebounds + 4 assists + 1 steal, and the plus-minus value on the field was -19. In the first quarter, the Cavaliers' offense was blocked, and the Lone Wolves had to start the scoring mode in advance; when the team was behind in a big score, Mitchell led the team to overtake the score was enough to boost morale, but when the game was determined, Mitchell was like a headless fly in the Pacers' defense line, doing rudely, inefficient, and unable to drive his teammates. According to statistics, Mitchell scored 30+ in G1 in eight consecutive playoff series, surpassing Jordan (7 consecutive games), with the most NBA history.
Lone Wolf Mitchell scored in an inefficient empty-handed manner, while the Pacers showed their team basketball to the fullest. 30 of the team's 44 sports goals were completed through assists, and 19 three-pointers were shot like rain! In this game, the Pacers' all soldiers were in their own positions, and 6 players scored in double digits! Among them, Turner scored a double-double with 13 points + 11 rebounds, and Sika contributed 17 points + 8 rebounds + 4 assists. They were fearless in dealing with the Cavaliers' inside double towers; Nemhard scored 23 points + 6 assists, and the scoring organization led the embarrassment that the Cavaliers did not have Garland as if they were cutting off their arm; more importantly, Pacers' super leader Haliburton controlled the whole game in a completely different way than the lone wolf!
Halliburton played for 36 minutes, made 9 of 15 shots (2 of 6 three-pointers), 2 of 2 free throws, scoring 22 points + 3 rebounds + 13 assists + 1 steal + 3 blocks. Halliburton scored not very high, but every point was crucial, and the means of affecting the game were rich and colorful! Especially in the last quarter, Halliburton scored 9 points and 3 assists to revitalize the entire team to break through the Cavaliers' defense line; what is even more impressive is that Halliburton actually made contributions in four consecutive defensive rounds, killing the Cavaliers' last wave of counterattack! Halliburton's offense and defense cross-in-one outing, defeated the first place in the Eastern Conference away game. He is worthy of being a big playoff scene and is underestimated. Fans, what do you think about this? Let me leave me a comment and discuss it.
