The situation is already very passive for the Cavaliers. If G2 still loses at home in the next game and plays the Pacers away with a 0-2 disadvantage, then the hope of advancement will be really slim. Historical data shows that in the NBA playoffs, there are only a handful of series that can fall behind 0-2 and turn around. The Knight must now find a solution to the problem immediately and immediately.
They have to solve this damn three-point shooting problem first. If the outside line continues to be cold, the Pacers will only shrink the inside line more resolutely, and then the Cavaliers' breakthrough and inside scoring will become extremely difficult. They need to create better shots for themselves through more aggressive running and smarter pick-and-roll instead of hasty shots.
Secondly, the defensive end must improve strength and execution. It is no longer possible to let Halliburton connect the entire team so easily, nor can it allow surprises like Nemhard to find so many open opportunities. The Cavaliers need to improve their defense switching strategies, improve communication efficiency between players, and make the defense line more compact and resilient.
Finally, Mitchell could no longer fight alone. Other players must stand up, whether they are scoring, supporting, or helping on the defensive end. Jerome's performance is a positive sign, but he needs more teammates to join in. Of course, if Garland can make a comeback in time, even if it is only a limited time, it can greatly change the situation on the court and bring the team the much-needed organization and scoring points. He may be the key to whether the Knight can turn the world around.
This upset once again sounded the alarm for all teams that despise their playoff opponents. The Pacers used their team basketball to prove that there are no absolute underdogs on the playoff stage. As long as the tactics are appropriate and the execution is in place, it can still overturn the so-called "wealthy family". The challenges facing the Cavaliers are now very great. Can they show the resilience when encountering strong like Pacers eliminate the Bucks? Or will you lose your way in the playoffs like last year's Bucks?
The next G2 is really a battle that determines fate for the Knights! If you win, you can still bring the series back to the same starting line; if you lose, it will be really lingering. This game is not only a victory or defeat in the score, but also a test of a team's will, resilience and adjustment ability.
This ball made people feel itchy. Do you think the Cavaliers can adjust in the next game? Can the young people like Pacers really go all the way to the end? In the comment section, let’s set up a dragon gate formation and have a good chat!
