The Godfather of Basketball

After Big Ben came on the field, he habitually gave Rasheed Wallace a high five.

Big Ben left the Pistons 4 years ago, and the two played on the same team 4 years later, everything seems to be the same as before.

The Magic throws a throw-in.

Howard habitually wanted to go to the low position, but Da Ben kept pushing him with his body, so he didn't go in.

Seeing this, Nelson gave up the idea of ​​giving the ball in, and turned directly to Carter.

Carter took the ball to find Lewis for a pick-and-roll, and broke through the basket after breaking it apart. Rasheed Wallace couldn't keep up.

Carter broke through to the basket, saw Big Ben coming, and threw the ball into the air.

This pass is a lob!

Howard understood, but he didn't jump up when he jumped.

Big Ben just made a false move, and he retracted the moment Carter passed the ball, and now he used his body to block Howard to prevent him from jumping!

The ball flew over Howard's head and was grabbed by James who rushed in.

Direct error!

experience!

The audience was delighted to see it.

After James got the ball, he flicked it to Matthews, and the Cavaliers immediately pushed the defensive counterattack.

Matthews was so fast that he squeezed Nelson in the frontcourt and scored a layup directly.

In addition to three-pointers, Matthews' confrontation ability is also above the league average.

Tang Tian nodded at this time.

With Howard, the Cavaliers are not suitable to play against the Magic, which is also a very important reason why the Cavaliers lost last season.

It is the most effective way to play a defensive counterattack and let Howard run at both ends so that the Magic can't make three-pointers.

Of course, the premise of such a fight is that someone can guard against Howard.

Big Ben did well in the first round after going up.

Howard was a little upset. The ball just now was Carter's bad pass. This time, although Big Ben pushed him to the free throw line, he still reached out for the ball.

Nelson puts the ball in.

After Howard signaled his teammates to pull away, he directly sank his center of gravity and chiseled hard.

When he was young, it was not an advantage to play big. Now that he is old at his peak, he doesn't believe that he can't stand up to an old guy.

"Bang! Bang!"

The muscular collision made a dull sound, like a heavy hammer hitting a rammed mud wall.

Big Ben didn't move a muscle.

As a representative of the league's stocky insider, his solid base and terrifying strength are the foundation for him to gain a foothold in the league and become a top insider.

Footsteps and speed will degrade significantly with age, but strength will degrade much slower than imagined.

Howard pushed for a while, but he didn't push in half a step.

He also realized this in the end, but he was not reconciled, turned around again, dribbled the ball and prepared to go in.

"Snapped!"

It's a pity that he is not Yao Ming. He is not skilled in turning around and dribbling the ball, and he was shot off by Da Ben with a single dribble.

James reacted quickly, rushed out to grab the flying ball at the first time, and then rushed forward with his head buried.

Nelson reacted quickly and went straight over.

James started dribbling the ball from the backcourt, almost tanking all the way, and when he got to the free throw line in the frontcourt, he rushed up and smashed Nelson, which was a signature dunk with his arms!

"boom!"

The entire Quicken Loans Arena erupted.

The Cavaliers beat the Magic 4-0 in the past! Instantly tied the score!

Tang Tian was smiling at this time.

Sure enough, Daben is really cheap, and he can fight even when he is old!

To put it more bluntly, Daben is now an old man in a court. He can't play a quasi-professional game on a field court like Yao Ming, but he can play a young man like Howard who likes to fly and escape. He is accurate and docile.

Howard is the core lifeline of this Magic team. He can't open it. Just like last year's finals, it is difficult for the entire Magic team to open it.

In the end, the Cavaliers defeated the Magic 108 to 93 and won the battle of revenge.

With 41 of 73 shots, the Cavaliers had an extremely high shooting percentage, and they played defensive counterattacks almost the entire time.

Williams also performed very well in his first show. He made 7 of 12 shots and scored a bench-high 16 points and 6 assists.

However, Howard played abnormally in the face of Big Ben. He only made 4 of 16 shots and scored 12 points only by free throws.

Winning the Magic is a huge boost in confidence for the entire Cavaliers team.

And Daben's performance also temporarily solved the team's inside defense problem.

In this wave of Christmas games, the Cavaliers did not have major injury problems, and the team also successfully improved their record from 13 wins and 4 losses to 19 wins and 5 losses, beating the Magic to rank first in the Eastern Conference.

Because of being in the Eastern Conference, this first place is much easier than the Rockets' first place.

But this is the reality, and it is also the reason why the teams in the East that had more than 60 wins last season were vulnerable to the teams in the West.

Fast forward to Christmas.

This year's Christmas, Tang Tian decided to spend it with Swift. Speaking of which, this is also the first time the two have spent Christmas.

Swift's house is in Los Angeles, and she is running around the room at this time, looking like a busy elf.

Tang Tian originally wanted to help, but found that he couldn't help, so he could only sit in the living room and watch TV.

"Meow~"

Sitting, there was a cry behind him.

He turned his head to look and found that it was the English shorts he bought a year ago.

perhaps.

He remembered that when he bought it, it was only about the size of a slipper, but now, it is a big ball, a little lion.

"You guy was an orange cat in your previous life, right?" Tang Tian said with a smile.

"Meow!" The mew star let out a low cry, obviously protesting.

It seems that although this guy is already as fat as an orange, his IQ hasn't dropped much.

Tang Tian tried to reach out his hand, but this guy jumped away, it seemed that he had already forgotten about him.

"Don!"

Swift came out of the kitchen at this moment and yelled.

Tang Tian turned his head, only to find that Yingduan ran towards Swift with a "bass" and jumped directly onto Swift's chest.

"Come on, baby." Swift smiled and hugged Ying Short.

Seeing Yingduan constantly pounding Swift's chest with his head, Tang Tian gave a wry smile.

It seems that Swift just called this guy.

It's also fortunate that the cat is a female cat, otherwise he would have been jealous.

"The cake is ready, and it will be out of the oven in two hours." Swift sat next to Tang Tian with Ying Short in her arms.

Since making a cheese championship cake for Tang Tian before, Swift has regarded it as a hobby, and now it is getting better and better.

"Thank you." Tang Tian grabbed Swift's shoulders and kissed her on the cheek.

"Meow!" At this moment, there was a strong protest from the cat in his arms.

Tang Tian looked down at Yingshou, reached out and touched its hind legs, and said with a smile, "This tendon meat is very solid, let's add some cat meat tonight."

"bass!"

Before he finished speaking, Ying Short turned around and disappeared from Swift's arms.

This guy is really not ordinary smart.
