Super Role Player

Anxi was crowned regular season MVP at home. This was a great moment.

But LeBron James doesn't think so. He hopes to disrupt the 76ers' celebration party while the entire 76ers team is celebrating.

After the award ceremony, the atmosphere in the Wachovia Arena suddenly changed. The Cavaliers came on the stage, and the arena was booed for a while.

"LeBron James, you betrayer of your brother!"

"LeBron James, you are the eternal loser!"

LeBron James became the target of public criticism, and abuses continued to come from the sidelines, but LeBron James always had the same expression. When the starting players of both teams stood in the center of the court, the game was about to break out.

At this time, LeBron James only has Anxi in his eyes.

So far in the series, the Cavaliers have stumbled, but the 76ers have swept the ** and have won 8 consecutive games. The state of the two teams is different from their strength. If the Cavaliers want to win, they must seize every opportunity. , in the opening, they must play stronger.

The Cavaliers' starting lineup is center Timothy Mozgov, power forward Kevin Love, small forward LeBron James, shooting guard Jr. Smith and point guard Kelly Irving.

The 76ers still have the starting lineup from the previous games, point guard Ishmael Smith, shooting guard Anxi, small forward Jae Crowder, power forward Pau Gasol and center Nerlens Noel.

Nerlens Noel and Mozgov jump ball.

With a beep, the basketball was thrown into the sky above the arena, and the Eastern Conference Finals officially began!

The young Nerlens Noel jumped faster and higher and directly grabbed the ball in the opening game. So, the 76ers started to attack first.

Ismael Smith took the ball and faced Kelly Irving's defense. Ismael Smith had no intention of taking the ball to attack. He was just a functional point guard. He controlled the ball to the frontcourt and handed the basketball directly to him. Anxi's hands.

Anxi gets the ball, and standing in front of him is Jr. Smith. This is an unequal matchup. The Cavaliers haven't realized this yet. In fact, if David Blatt is careful enough, the Cavaliers' starting shooting guard should be Yi Man Shumpert, although Shumpert's defense against Anxi was not very good before.

But at least, compared to Jr. Smith, Iman Shumpert is still defensive.

Facing the undefended Jr. Smith, Anxi's style of play was very simple. Sprint in one step, throw away Jr. Smith, rush into the three-point line, and make a sudden jump shot. Whoa! Got two points!

A good start! Anxi got the first point of the Eastern Conference Finals! And jr Smith's defense is meaningless! He didn't touch Anxi's clothes at all, let alone defend!

The 76ers scored at the beginning. This is the credit of Anxi. With Anxi's ability, there is no possibility of missing the singles opportunity at the beginning. Therefore, for the Cavaliers, if they want to take the lead at the beginning, they must not give 200%. In this state, it is simply impossible to achieve their original goals.

Therefore, after getting the ball, the Cavaliers directly started attacking.

It has to be said that LeBron James has matured a lot since he returned to Cleveland. He played very resolutely on the first goal of the game. He made a strong breakthrough. Then, he broke through the 76ers' defense and succeeded in a layup. It was also two points and the 76ers The opening tie with the Cavaliers was 2:2.

The basketball came to Anxi's hands again, and it was still Jr. Smith's defense.

Jr. Smith was already trying his best to defend Anxi. He even shouted, but it was all in vain. Anxi still made a strong breakthrough. This time he used a step-back jumper. The next second, swish. There was a sound, followed by the sound of a basketball wiping the net.

Enter again! Jr. Smith felt desperate. In front of Anxi, he was unable to resist at all.

Anxi scored consecutively and was in a hot state. In fact, the Cavaliers have fallen into a passive position until now. Looking at the 76ers' games this season, as long as Anxi has performed well in games, they have not lost even one game!

No matter how behind the team, Anxi can always use his personal performance to

Help the team win, as evidenced by 101 points!

LeBron James also started to attack with the ball. It was still Jae Crowder's one-on-one defense. Jae Crowder had already defended very well, but LeBron James still forced his way into the paint and succeeded in another layup.

It has to be said that LeBron James's personal ability is still very good. In one-on-one defense, no one in the league can guard him except Anxi.

But now Anxi doesn't want to defend LeBron James. Anxi still needs to focus all his energy on the offensive end. In this game, the 76ers' goal is to use offense to defeat the Cavaliers' defense.

Everyone is saying that offense wins fans, and only defense can win championships. But this season, what the 76ers showed people is how to use offense to win the championship strongly.

On the court, the 76ers served from the backcourt, and it was Anxi who received the ball and rushed to the frontcourt, catching the Cavaliers off guard. At 6:4, Anxi scored three goals in a row. Now, the pressure is on LeBron James.

LeBron James continued to break through Jae Crowder's defense. This season, LeBron James' long-range shooting has been poor. In this extremely important game, LeBron James did not dare to look for his own long-range shooter in the opening game. I feel like, almost every shot in the opening game is a strong break from the inside, and the success rate is high.

This shot was still not blocked by Jack Crowder. LeBron James reached the basket and hit it again. He roared and after equalizing the score again, LeBron James was already red-eyed.

But it was of no use, because Anxi scored again, this time with a three-pointer. Pau Gasol picked and rolled from the outside. Anxi moved laterally and shot a drifting three-pointer. With a swish, he hit again!

With 7 points in a row, Anxi was unstoppable.

LeBron James is struggling to chase points, but in terms of efficiency, he is still far inferior to Anxi.

In the end, Anxi scored 17 points in the first quarter, helping the 76ers take a 5-point lead at 34:29.

LeBron James is also scoring. He also scored 10 points in the first quarter, but whether it is scoring efficiency or the way he scores, LeBron James is far inferior to Anxi. It is not so much that the two teams scored 5 points in the first quarter. The gap is between the two teams, rather than the gap between Anxi and LeBron James.

It's possible that the gap between Anxi and LeBron James is even bigger. After all, in the first quarter, Anxi's personal score was 7 points more than LeBron James's!

The Cavaliers were in a difficult situation. They were no match for the 76ers. In the second quarter, Anxi and LeBron James, who had played the entire first quarter, both left the court to rest. At this time, other core players from the two teams came on stage.

Last time, the other two giants of the Cavaliers brought a group of substitute players against the 76ers bench led by Pau Gasol and Lou Williams.

I have to say that the Cavaliers' lineup is very luxurious. If it weren't for the huge gap between LeBron James and Anxi, this game would have been really good. Under the leadership of Kelly Irving and Kevin Love, the Cavaliers and 76ers played off the bench. It was a 50-50 game, and halfway through the second quarter, LeBron James and Anxi appeared again.

Anxi rested for five minutes, and when he saw LeBron James walking to the substitution area in front of the technical table, he also stood up on his own initiative.

"Brett, let me go in and defeat them all in one fell swoop."

With the consecutive victories in the playoffs, Brett Brown's confidence also increased. He waved his hand and directly agreed.

"Okay, let's go to Anxi and try to end the game at halftime!"

Brett Brown doesn't take the Cavaliers seriously anymore and just wants to end the suspense of this game as soon as possible.

LeBron James appears, and Anxi also appears. This time, the two are in opposite positions, and the real battle is finally about to begin! rw
