The next morning, Irving woke up among the flowers, and after hastily coping with it, he drove to the UCLA arena.They also have a training program with the players of the team and have to go to the training ground.

James is a rare good man among black players. Although he also goes to nightclubs, he can generally keep himself clean.Arrived at the training hall at six o'clock in the morning and started personal training.

The Cavaliers are a team that relies heavily on James. His state cannot fluctuate, otherwise he will not be able to compete with the Lakers.

Tyronn Lue called Richard Jefferson, Shumpert and JR Smith and several players who were responsible for defending Xu Tian to his side, and sounded the alarm in advance: "Boys, the Lakers lost the first game. , I definitely want to win this game back, and I can't relax for a moment in Xu's defense. The three of you are the most suitable candidates to defend him, and this task will be entrusted to you."

JR Smith's heart is higher than the sky. He never put Xu Tian in his eyes. When he heard the coach's words, he didn't feel too concerned. He was just dissatisfied with his playing time and said, "Coach, can you arrange more playing time for me?" ?”

Tyronn Lue knew that JR Smith made a key goal in the last game, so it was not easy to refuse directly, and said: "Iman can help you share more pressure on the defensive end, so that you can play a role in the offensive end, and don't make any adjustments for now. .”

JR Smith is not a player who is willing to sacrifice for the team. Fortunately, he is still the starter and did not directly refute the coach.But he was still a little unconvinced, thinking that he could block Xu Tian.

After the turmoil last night, Irving was a little tired physically, and he didn't feel good during shooting training.He is very worried about the game tonight, but he is very young and has enough time to restore his physical strength to full state.

The TNT host team got together again to talk about tonight's game.

Barkley believes that the Cavaliers will win two games in a row. The basis is that the Lakers have lost streak in the Western Conference semifinals and finals, and their short-term adjustment ability is not good. Only after Xu Tian activates a certain state can he start to win.

O'Neill is still standing on the opposite side of Barkley.His point of view is that Xu Tian didn't participate much in the offense in the last game, and the second game will definitely increase his role on the offensive end.The Cavaliers have no outside gate players at all, so it is difficult to restrict Xu Tian.

The debate between Barkley and O'Neal, no matter who has the upper hand, will eventually come to the championship ring.O'Neal has four, but Barkley has none, and the topic of the two ends here.

After the Cavaliers' routine training, Irving took a taxi back to the away hotel and asked a private physical therapist to help him massage his body to restore his strength as much as possible.

As the game drew closer, his nervousness became more apparent.Although he refused to admit that Xu Tian was stronger than him, but when he really confronted Xu Tian, ​​the strong sense of oppression would be deeply imprinted in his mind, making it unbearable.

At [-]:[-] p.m., Irving woke up from his sleep and walked out of the hotel to find that his teammates had gone to the away arena first, feeling a little unhappy.He didn't know that this was a decision made by the physical therapist for him, thinking that the team didn't value him at all.

Owen washed up briefly, changed into clean Nike sportswear, put on his headphones, walked out of the away hotel, and stopped a taxi on the way.

Taxi driver is a very boring job. Apart from listening to music, communicating with passengers is an important way to pass the boring time. First, I opened the conversation and asked, "I see you are tall, are you an NBA player?"

Owen didn't expect that there were still people who didn't know him, and said depressedly: "Yes, I'm a Cavaliers guard."

The taxi driver said: "You are a defender!"

Irving could tell the taxi driver didn't know much about football and said, "Yeah, I'm a guard."

"Wouldn't it be uncomfortable to confront Xu. After all, Xu likes to talk trash."

Owen didn't expect to hear Xu Tian's name when he was in a taxi. He had seen his popularity in Los Angeles, and thought he was unlucky. No matter what the driver asked him, he didn't answer.

When the taxi driver mentioned Xu Tian, ​​he couldn't help boasting, which made Owen feel even more embarrassed.But the Staples Center is not far away, which made Owen feel relieved.

The plaza outside the Staples Center was still the same as the first game. A large number of fans wearing Cavaliers No. 23 jerseys came. Seeing Irving get out of the taxi, they began to shout "Kyrie!" in unison to express their support. .

Irving is the No. [-] pick selected by the Cavaliers. He has spent his career in the Cavaliers so far, which makes the fans have a deep affection for him.

The ball boy heard the sound here, came over to meet Irving, and led him into the stadium, away from the interference of the fans.

The Cavaliers gathered in the locker room, put on their warm-up suits and made their pre-match preparations for the upcoming second game of the series.

JR Smith has been in the league longer than Irving. Seeing Irving walk into the locker room, he said with a smile: "Young man, you should take it easy when you are young, otherwise accidents will happen."

Irving didn't like JR Smith joking with him like this, but the NBA values ​​seniority, and he didn't refute it.Go straight to the locker with your name tag on it, and change the equipment on your body.

Tai Lunlu always felt that Owen would fight Xu Tian. Although he didn't know where this feeling came from, he just had such an idea. When Owen changed his equipment, he called him to his side and tried to persuade him again.

Owen has been seeing or hearing things related to Xu Tian recently, and he couldn't help being a little irritable, and he didn't listen to Tyronnlu's advice at all.

James sprawled on the locker room floor, looking at the inspirational books he brought from Cleveland, trying to adjust his mentality.This is a habit he developed during the Heat, and it has survived.

The arena staff knocked on the door of the away locker room to notify the players to enter.

James Jones, the leader of the Cavaliers' locker room, called his teammates around, briefly cheered, and then trotted onto the court.

What the away game can receive are neat and loud boos.

Irving stood on the sidelines, watching the home team's player channel, waiting for the Lakers players to enter.

Kobe was the first player to run into the stadium, and was warmly cheered by the fans, and when Xu Tian ran out last, the decibels of the cheers reached their peak.

Owen could clearly hear the difference between the two cheers, and he was inevitably a little jealous.He is also a super rookie for the Cavaliers, but James is at his peak, making it impossible for him to occupy the center of the stage.He sighed a little, but he was still powerless to change it.

Barkley and Kenny Smith were already in the commentary booth, and the two exchanged dirty jokes to fill the empty time before the opening introduction.

Cleveland area.

Cavaliers fans spontaneously gathered in the plaza outside the Quicken Loans Center Arena to watch the upcoming game together on a huge screen.
