The Godfather of Basketball

The same problem, but the biggest difference from the 73-win Warriors is that the Cavaliers are in the Big East.

As of now, the Cavaliers' record is 49 wins and 4 losses. There are 29 games left in the season, 20 of which are against Eastern teams, and 15 are against teams that basically missed the playoffs.

Based on this situation, the coaching staff has formulated a set of rotation play.

The Big Three rest one player in each game, appropriately reducing the playing time of the rotation players, giving marginal players opportunities to find status for the playoffs.

This strategy is very similar to that in the preseason, but the difference is that the team's degree of running-in has improved qualitatively.

On February 24, the Cavaliers ushered in their first game after the All-Star break, against the Nuggets who had just undergone a big change.

Paul rested in this game, facing the Nuggets who wanted to run, Tang Tian used James and Yao Ming to crush his opponents, especially James and Yao Ming, who practiced his post-up skills for a season in the low position after Yao Ming left the field. With four pitchers on the outside, the system of the position is fully utilized.

In the end, the Cavaliers beat the Nuggets 102 to 89 and won their 50th victory of the season.

Yao Ming steadily output 22 points, 13 rebounds and 6 assists, while James contributed 32 points, 10 rebounds and 11 assists in a large triple-double.

On February 26, after a two-day break, the team faced the New Orleans Hornets. The Hornets made a big deal with the Cavaliers at the beginning of the season, and the rookie was in charge.

The Cavaliers rested Yao Ming, and Cousins ​​showed his prowess in the interior, scoring a luxurious double-double of 29 points and 17 rebounds. Matthews also scored 26 points, 6 rebounds and 6 assists against his former team, but their defense was weak. The Cavaliers were riddled with holes in front of them.

126 to 109, the Cavaliers were bloodless.

James played steadily with 29 points, 9 rebounds and 9 assists. Paul contributed 30 points, 16 assists and 5 steals against his old club.

On February 28th, the Cavaliers played away against the Spurs. James took a break in this game. The Cavaliers entered into a stalemate with their opponents after the opening. After the tie with 10 seconds before the end, Paul broke into the inside and squeezed Duncan's buzzer buzzer lore , Helping the Cavaliers narrowly beat their opponents.

Paul and Yao Ming both scored 30+.

On March 3, the Cavaliers played the Mavericks at home, and Yao Ming took a break. After the opening, the Cavaliers were blasted inside. They kept chasing points and lost 98-106.

...

Although the Big Three hardly played together, the Cavaliers still won more than lost.

On April 14th, after the Big Three still won the Pacers 98-87 in the rotation, the Cavaliers' record after the All-Star Game in the regular season was fixed at 25 wins and 4 losses, and the team's final record was also fixed at 74 wins and 8 losses!

74 wins!

Not only broke the record of 72 wins set by the Bulls in the 1995-96 season, but also directly improved this record by 2 games!

"This is an incredible achievement, and the Cavaliers deserve it." After the Cavaliers broke the record, Michael Jordan, who is already a major shareholder of the Bobcats, expressed his congratulations on social media for the first time.

"The existence of records is used to break, and the Cavaliers have the strength to do this." Scottie Pippen, another core of the former Bulls, also said in an interview with reporters.

As the record holder, the heights are overwhelming, and they all congratulated the Cavaliers for breaking the record.

"The strongest team in the new century." Not only members of the Bulls, but also the American media used similar titles to celebrate the new history created by the Cavaliers.

Fans of Cleveland and the Cavaliers went into a frenzy because of it.

There are championships every year, but 74 wins, this is a new history of the NBA, and it is an absolute big event.

"Free tonight."

Such slogans can be seen everywhere in restaurants, strip clubs, and playgrounds in Kecheng.

This is their crazy night.

In such crazy celebrations, the regular season of the 2010~2011 season officially came to an end.

The Cavaliers' 74 wins and 8 losses lead the league.

After the Cavaliers, second in the Eastern Conference and second in the league is the Bulls, whose final record is 62 wins and 20 losses.

Compared with last season, their strength has improved qualitatively. If it weren't for the Cavaliers, they would definitely be the biggest favorites to win the championship.

Ranked third in the Eastern Conference is the Magic. Despite the turmoil in the trade, their record is fixed at 56 wins and 26 losses.

The fourth is the Celtics, the serious aging of the Big Three, coupled with the pain of trading, they only won a record of 52 wins and 30 losses in the end, which is the worst record since the Big Three teamed up in 2008.

The teams ranked 5 to 8 are: Hawks, Knicks, Pacers and 76ers.

In the west, with the fall of the Rockets, it became the world of the Spurs, Mavericks and Lakers.

The Spurs won 61 wins and 21 losses. They won consecutive victories and won the No. 1 position in the Western Conference despite being unfavorable.

The Lakers won 59 wins. A wave of injuries to Bynum at the end of the season made them lose the chance to hit the top of the Western Conference. However, the combination of Kobe, Gasol, and Odom is still one of the favorites to win the championship.

Although the upstart Thunder team lost one of the five players, the four players played well. They won a record of 54 wins in team history, ranking fourth in the Western Conference.

The teams from 5 to 8 are the Nuggets, Trail Blazers, Hornets and Grizzlies.

It is worth mentioning that after the Rockets lost Yao Ming, Tracy McGrady to injury and traded Billups, their final record was fixed at 44 wins and 38 losses, which was not as good as the Grizzlies with 46 wins, ranking ninth in the West , missed the playoffs.

While the fans were enjoying the Cavaliers' 74 wins, they also ridiculed the Rockets' management.

"It took them just two seasons to go from a dynasty team to missing the playoffs."

"After the tide receded, I found out who the real sails are. Without Tang Tian, ​​they are nothing."

"Morey's best general manager! Rockets champion!"

...

The decline of the Rockets is in stark contrast to the prosperity of the Cavaliers.

Two years ago, their situation was just the opposite.

In the past, Morey's blunt mouth, fans' arguments, and everything have become clouds in the face of time.

As long as you are not blind, everyone can see who is the key person.

Morey may be an outstanding general manager once in ten years, but Tang Tian is truly unique.

The unique Tang Tian, ​​after leading the team to a new historical record of 74 wins, will also start the new season's playoff journey.

Their opponent in the first round is the Philadelphia 76ers.

The 76ers are now headed by "Old Captain" Brand and "Little AI" Iguodala, supplemented by Jrue Holiday, Louis Williams, Thaddeus Young and other powerful newcomers. A wave of impact allowed them to successfully squeeze out the Bucks and make the playoffs.

For both parties, another interesting thing is that Iverson, who was ruthlessly cut off by the 76ers, is now a member of the Cavaliers.
