Chapter 610 Losing
Players from both sides return to the field and the game continues.

Xu Tian received the serve from the backcourt, came to the frontcourt under the defense of Shumpert, and organized an attack at the top of the arc.

James and Tristan Thompson switched roles and came to the top of the arc to help Shumpert defend, and the two restricted Xu Tian.

Xu Tian's dribbling skills are amazing. He dribbles the ball continuously with his left hand in a small range, connects the front change of direction and worships Buddha, forcibly passes the double-team of the Cavaliers, finds a small space, and forcibly shoots.

Shumpert didn't control his movement, and hit Xu Tian's arm, paying for a thug foul.

Shumpert six offenders graduate!
Tylen Lue stood on the sidelines and called Richard Jefferson to his side to replace Shumpert who was sent off.

JR Smith was originally ready to make a comeback, but it was puzzling to see Tyronn Lue dispatching Richard Jefferson.He thinks he is an indispensable main player, and the reality that he has almost no playing time makes him feel that there is a big gap and it is difficult to accept.

Tyronn Lue now just wants to help the team win the game, and has no energy to consider the emotions of each player. He focuses on Xu Tian's free throws, hoping that he will miss.

Made all three free throws!

99-104, 2 minutes and 05 seconds!
Xu Tian was so stable that James felt a little apprehensive.It was his intuition as a professional player, out of nowhere.

James received the serve and continued to suppress the offensive and defensive rhythm, preventing the Lakers from getting used to it.

Josh Smith lowered his center of gravity and tried to focus on defense, making it impossible for James to complete the breakthrough easily.This is the most threatening offensive method for the Cavaliers. Although there is a high probability that they will not be able to prevent it, they must try their best to limit it.

James saw that there were 11 seconds left on the offensive clock, dribbled the ball laterally, and tried to speed up the breakthrough.

Josh Smith knew that the attack time had entered the last 2 minutes, and exerted a strong physical confrontation to try to reduce James' speed.

Speed ​​is a very important factor on the basketball court. As long as the breakthrough speed can be reduced, it is very possible to defend.

James changed the Lakers' defensive formation, knowing that he hadn't fully started, turned around and passed the ball to Richard Jefferson, who was standing on the right.

Richard Jefferson is a player who is easily overlooked. He received the basketball, and without fear of possible rumors, he took off on the spot and shot directly!

Kobe was in charge of defending Richard Jefferson, and because he went to help defend James, he failed to return in time.The right hand stretches out a symbolic defense, and turns to see if the shot can be scored.

The basketball hits the backboard and bounces into the net!

99-107, 1 minutes and 48 seconds!
The fans at the scene were excited that more players from the team could stand up, stood up, cheered and celebrated, and waited for the victory.

Xu Tian is still the most threatening existence. During the process of dribbling, he attracted the attention of all fans.His expression remained the same, without any change.

Richard Jefferson is a veteran, his defense against Xu Tian is not as effective as Shumpert, and he is easily found an offensive space.

Xu Tian dribbled the ball laterally, threw away Richard Jefferson's defense, and confidently shot a three-pointer.

The basketball draws a rainbow arc and hits the net with precision!
102-107, 1 minutes and 39 seconds!
Fans at the scene looked at Xu Tian who made a three-point gesture with both hands, as if they saw a monster in a horror story.

Tai Lunlu called a timeout, trying to break Xu Tian's rhythm.

A player like Xu Tian is extremely likely to create a miracle at a critical moment. He must be sure that nothing goes wrong, otherwise he will go to Los Angeles with a score of 1-3.

James was physically exhausted, drank half a bottle of Gatorade, wiped the sweat off his face and arms, and waited for the timeout to end.He is the backbone of the Cavaliers and knows how to win the game.

The main purpose of Tai Lunlu was to break Xu Tian's rhythm, he did not adjust his offensive and defensive tactics, let himself go, and did not communicate with the players.

Fans in the Quicken Loans Center stood in front of their seats, watching the big screen above the arena, waiting for the game to continue.

Players from both sides returned to the field and the game continued.

James received the sideline ball from the backcourt, walked to the frontcourt, controlled the time at the top of the arc, and wasted as much time as possible.He is a very experienced athlete and knows which way to take the game steadily.

The entire city of Cleveland, and even Ohio State, are now on the side of the Cavaliers, hoping to maintain the lead no matter what, and not to be hit by Xu Tian for a supernatural moment.

James launched an unsolvable breakthrough, once again attracted the defensive attention of the three Lakers, and hit the basket strongly.

Josh Smith's excessive confrontation was whistled for a foul, and he also graduated with six fouls!

Kobe walked over to exchange a few words with the referee, confirmed to no avail, and stood at the top of the arc on the right to watch James make free throws.

Lady luck favored the Cavaliers tonight, James made two free throws, and rare phenomena happened in succession.

102-109, 1 minutes and 23 seconds!
Richard Jefferson did not let down his vigilance, and then stuck to the defense with all his strength, leaving no room for Xu Tian to shoot.

Xu Tian hit the ground with his left hand and passed the ball to Kobe.

The Cavaliers immediately shifted their defense and made up for it from the inside to limit Kobe.

Bryant dribbled with his left hand, tested Tristan Thompson's defense, felt he couldn't get away, passed inside, and let Nance Jr. complete the offense.

Nance Jr. picked the basket easily and scored two points!

104-109, 1 minutes and 04 seconds!
James dribbled the ball with his right hand and stretched his left hand forward to press the offensive rhythm.The point difference between the two sides is five points. As long as they can maintain it, they can win the game.

Xu Tian came to the top of the arc and lowered his center of gravity to defend James.

James prefers to attack face-up. Post-up singles were used more during the Heat period. Now, in order to secure victory, he still uses this most secure offensive method.

Xu Tianding's defensive strength is just right, jamming James' center of gravity and trying not to be pushed.

James could feel that Xu Tian's top defense was of high quality, and pushed forward with the ball behind his back, trying to get as close to the basket as possible.When you can't take another half step, turn over and shoot a jumper.

The quality of Xu Tianding's defense was very high, which made James' center of gravity unstable and his shots were affected to a certain extent.

The basketball bounces out of the frame!

Tristan Thompson squeezed Nance Jr. and Tyson Chandler, grabbed the offensive rebound, made a putback and drew a blocking foul.

There was unprecedented noise in the Quicken Loans Center arena, and the cheers went to Tristan Thompson who grabbed an offensive rebound.This is an extremely critical goal, basically finalizing the game.

Reggie Miller said: "Unless Xu can play 9 seconds 8 minutes or 35 seconds 13 minutes, otherwise the game will basically end."

Miracles don't happen every game.

Tai Lue took the risk of using penalty kick tactics, took the initiative to send Xu Tian to the free throw line, and sent two points to ensure that the lead was big enough.Such a strategy succeeded, so that the point difference was not narrowed to a traceable range.

When the final whistle sounded, the Lakers lost to the Cavaliers away with a score of 108-113, and the series became 2-2!

Five-color ribbons fell from the Quicken Loans Center to celebrate this hard-won victory.
