On May 5, Beijing time, the second round of the NBA playoffs in the East began, the Pacers challenged the Cavaliers away, after four quarters of competition, the Pacers relied on sharp three-point shots to upset the Cavaliers 121-112, and the big score was 1-0 first, I have to say that this is really a very surprising result!
The Cavaliers are the first in the East to advance to the playoffs, and the first round swept the Heat with an overwhelming 4-0 to advance, while the Pacers advanced to the playoffs in the fourth place in the East, although they were slightly blocked in the first round, they still beat the Bucks 4-1 to advance, and the two teams met in the second round to compete for a place in the Eastern Conference Finals.
After the start of the game, the Pacers dominated the anti-visitors, and played a 36-25 score with more points, and scored 11 points in the first quarter. In the second and third quarters, the Cavaliers' firepower was fierce, constantly outputting and suppressing the Pacers, and the point difference was constantly eroded, and there was a gap of 2 points after the third quarter. At the beginning of the final quarter, the two teams started a tug-of-war, and the Pacers rained three points in the middle of the quarter to open the score, and then the Pacers maintained the suppression of the Cavaliers, Allen hit the board to open up to 10 points, basically killing the game, and finally the game ended, and the Pacers beat the Cavaliers in an upset, taking the lead 1-0!
From this game comes three incredible things. The first is that the Cavaliers are second in the league and first in the East, and it is a bit unbelievable that the Pacers are underneath. The second is that the Pacers exploded in three-point shooting, hitting an incredible 19 three-pointers and shooting directly to the Cavaliers. The third is that Nembhard feels too hot, with a shooting rate of 5 out of 6 three-pointers, and an 83% shooting rate, which is incredible!
In addition, there are two indisputable facts in this game, the first is that the Pacers played excellent team basketball in this game, 6 people scored double-doubles, and more points blossomed to defeat the Cavaliers, 1-0 first. The main reason for the loss of the second Cavaliers is that the three-point shot is too iron, 9 of 38 shots in the game, there is no three-point shooting at all, and the key is to shoot more and more, I can't believe it!
