A tie-break in tennis is all about scoring points on your own serve game. The same applies to the NBA play-offs, where you should win your own home game if possible.
So far, both opponents have not been guilty of anything in this regard. The first two games of this series, which were played at Rocket Mortgage FieldHouse, also went to the Cavs with 97:83 and 96:86 respectively.
Then the action moved to the east coast of the USA, where the Wagner brothers, in their inimitable style, led Orlando to equalize with clear scores of 121:83 and 112:89.
Now it’s back to Ohio, where, following this logic, the Cavaliers should soon be 3-2. However, I bet against it.
After two back-to-back wins, Orlando has the advantage of being the team that knows the momentum is clearly on its side on Wednesday.
Have through four games The Magic also beat Cleveland by 30 points at the 3-point linewhich is surprising given Orlando’s poor reputation for long-distance shots and their poor performance in the first two games of this series.
Orlando only hit 17 of Cleveland’s 72 three-point attempts, but they shot at 35% or better in their two home games.
The Cavs, on the other hand, have made massive cuts, by only being able to net 4 of 17 three-point shots on Saturday. In particular, Max Strus and Georges Niang, who were signed specifically for this purpose, have combined for just four three-pointers in four games.
It goes without saying that this is not enough.
