THE Cavaliers it took a few minutes for them to impose their defense Clips. Almost the entire first quarter, when the first rotations came into effect, with the returns of Dean Wade, Craig Porter Jr. and Jaylon Tyson. therefore, Cade Cunningham and his teammates enter the tunnel and take away their baskets for ten minutes!
Detroit’s playmaker was particularly hurt by De’Andre Hunter’s physical impact, facing his long arms. “They will look for players on any pitch”, slide Donovan Mitchell on his teammate. “They are good opponents for him. He is so powerful that he cannot be shut down.”analyzed by Kenny Atkinson.
In his team’s loss, Cade Cunningham finished with just 12 points on 3/14 shooting and 5 turnovers. He wanted to manage defensive pressure better but it was still messy, even unrecognizable. Maybe because of mistakes in the hip, but also on the face, after the clash with Neemias Cueta against Boston.
Cleveland’s defense is getting stronger
In any case, he never weighed in the match, going almost twenty minutes without scoring a simple basket.
Obviously, when he lacks freedom and space, the Pistons’ leader loses his impact, and against a defense like Cleveland’s, that is unforgiving.
“We can’t miss it”assures Jarrett Allen of the physical dimension of meetings. “You have to be ready every time they get into the racket, to respond.”
After the success against the Nets, then against the Bucks, but while Giannis Antetokounmpo broke the interior sector with 40 points, it was a much more successful performance against the opposing star. as well as the third win in a row for Kenny Atkinson’s troops.
“We see it, Brooklyn, Milwaukee and now Detroit, we responded, progressively”referee Donovan Mitchell. “We didn’t have it all figured out against the Bucks, but we answered the call in this meeting. For the second match in two days, that’s what we want to do.”
