Chapter 167 Sweeping the Raptors
"The Cavaliers won this round of G1. As the old enemy, the Raptors, is there any hope of breaking through the double-teaming of the Cavaliers this year?"

"The Raptors are weak in the backcourt. Is it a problem of coach Casey's overuse?"

"DeRozan: Jiang Wudi is very powerful. He doesn't look like a rookie at all. He looks like a tough opponent to me!"

"James: Our whole team played what we should have. This is team basketball!"

"Jiang Wudi:..."

...

...

Winning G[-] still made everyone in the Cavaliers breathe a sigh of relief.

and.

It also gave them more self-confidence.

Especially Tristan Thompson.

In the regular season, Tristan Thompson actually only shines when he forms the "Kecheng Waste Brothers" combination with Nance Jr. in the second half of the regular season.

And after a few playoff games, no one will underestimate Tristan Thompson anymore.

I think.

Now, those teams in the East that may meet the Cavaliers in the Eastern Conference finals, the Celtics and the [-]ers, have begun to study how to target Tristan Thompson.

The [-]ers breathed a sigh of relief.

after all.

It seems that it is still very easy for the emperor to beat Tristan Thompson.

But their problem is also very serious, that is, how to pass the Celtics, one of the NBA giants.

5 month 4 day.

The G[-] game between the Cavaliers and the Raptors has also officially started.

This game, emmm...

I don't know what to say.

The Raptors still played very well in the first quarter, and finally led the Cavaliers by [-] points and entered the second quarter.

just.

In the second quarter, the plot is completely different from G[-].

Lao Zhan and Jiang Wudi stood up directly, Lao Zhan was responsible for the breakthrough, and Jiang Wudi was responsible for shooting three-pointers from the outside. In this way, the Cavaliers scored [-] points in a single quarter, and the Raptors couldn't find anything.

Lowry's state today is still not better than G[-]. He made mistakes several times in organizing the offense. What made the Raptors' head hurt even more was that Lowry received his fourth personal foul at the beginning of the third quarter.

resignedly.

Coach Casey had no choice but to adjust the lineup and change the team's tactics.

Without Lowry, the Cavaliers played more freely, directly expanding the point difference to more than [-] points in the third quarter.

In the fourth quarter, Jiang Wudi led the team himself.

Lao Zhan just came up for a few minutes.

In the end, the Cavaliers beat the Raptors [-]-[-] away.

The total score of the series is [-]-[-].
May [-]th.

Back in Cleveland, the Cavaliers are about to face the Raptors at home.

"The Raptors are so-so, nothing great!" Before the game, Jiang Wudi said such a sentence in the interview with the media.

According to Jiang Wudi's temper, it is very unlikely that he would say such a thing.

But that's exactly what he said.

What I don't know is whether it's because his pre-match interview was heard by the Raptors or something. The Raptors played extraordinarily hard in G[-].

Yes.

Desperate has to be described in one word.

Holding the ball is like carrying a bomb, rushing hard into the inside of the Cavaliers.

Today's Jiang Wudi's performance is very mediocre.

Lao Zhan performed very well in the first half today, and in the second half, it was Love's home game.

Love singled Valanciunas several times in the low post, and directly taught Valanciunas how to behave.

In the end, the Cavaliers also successfully won G[-].

The total score is [-]-[-].
The No. [-] Raptors in the East are about to be swept by the Cavaliers?

If you tell the fans this prediction before the playoffs start, you will probably be criticized to death.

If the Raptors have no strength, how can they reach the number one position in the Eastern Conference?
is not it.

But now, the slap is coming.

The Raptors seem to be forced to have no way out.

Next, they still need to continue to fight at the Cavaliers' home court.

On the day of the game, when the two teams came to the home court, Jiang Wudi didn't feel a trace of Hao's passion for the game from the Raptors at all.

They seem to have no confidence in their next game.

In response to this game, Coach Casey made some adjustments to the Raptors' lineup.

After being beaten 3-0 by the Cavaliers, Coach Casey was naturally thinking about how the Raptors are worse than the Cavaliers.

It wasn't until the second half of the fourth quarter of G3 that he discovered that the Raptors' five small lineups were actually pretty good.

Ever since, in this game, he put Valanciunas on the bench and sent: CJ-Myers, OG-Anunobi, Ibaka, DeRozan, Lowry Five Tigers.

Interestingly, the Cavaliers have also started a new tactical drill, James, JR Smith, Love, Korver, Jiang Wudi.

When seeing the lineup of the Cavaliers, the expression on Coach Casey's face is wonderful.

"Welcome everyone to the scene where the Cavaliers played against the Raptors at home. We saw that both teams have sent their starting players to the field. However, their two lineups seem to be a little short!"

"Especially the Raptors. In the past few games, Valanciunas has proved that he is the most powerful presence in the Raptors' interior, but his existence has affected the Raptors' offensive rhythm. Today, Coach Casey put Valanciunas on the bench. Let's see if there will be any new chemical reactions!"

Without Valanciunas, the Raptors' offense has indeed picked up speed.

Lowry and Ibaka each hit a three-pointer one after another, and they started a 6-0 start, which is really encouraging.

but.

Because of the small lineup, the Raptors' defense also had a big problem. Jiang Wudi hit the basket three times in a row and scored,

Love can also make steady hits in low-post dislocation singles.

Coupled with the veteran Korver's chase three-pointer, the Raptors were beaten by the Cavaliers except for the first two three-pointers.

Forced to be helpless, Coach Casey had no choice but to re-promote Valanciunas.

but.

The effect is still bad.

Being on the inside, Love, who has always felt very soft, successfully beat Valanciunas in the offense. In the next round, when it was the Raptors' turn to attack, Love gave Valanciunas a big cap.

After a single quarter, the Cavaliers led by 30 points at 20-10.

At the beginning of the second quarter, Van Jordan was also able to seize the opportunity. After successfully attracting the Cavaliers' defensive attention with a three-pointer, he made three consecutive passes to Valanciunas.

Valanciunas made three consecutive strong hits inside.

only.

At this time, Jiang Wudi and Korver were sent on the field again, and then, with a few three-pointers, the Raptors were losing their temper.

At the end of the second quarter, the statistics were counted.

JR-Smith made 6 of 6 shots,
Korver made 6 of 5 shots.

The hit rate of these veterans is frighteningly high.

On the other hand, the Raptors are directly cool!
After halftime, the Cavaliers led the Raptors by 63 points 43-20.

Seeing such a point difference, one knows that in the third quarter, players like James and Jiang Wudi should not continue to play.

result.

The Cavaliers' bench lineup played the Raptors' starting lineup, and they can still guarantee not to lose. Basically, you make one and I make one.

After falling behind by a big score, the Raptors collapsed directly. Even DeRozan, who had a good temper, rounded his arms and attacked Clarkson's head.

After the final replay, DeRozan made a second-degree malicious foul and was immediately sent off.

Without DeRozan, the lifespan of the Raptors is over.

After three quarters, the Raptors trailed the Cavaliers 70-100.

After that, the game entered garbage time.

At the end of the game, the Cavaliers beat the Raptors 128-93, eliminated the Raptors with a total score of 4-0, and advanced to the Eastern Conference Finals first.
