After the timeout, Cole brought back all the main players, and Malone also replaced all the substitutes except Wade, as both sides entered the final battle ahead of time.
The evenly matched scene of the first three quarters showed that with Jokic's growth and Wade's excellent form, the Cavaliers' strength is not much weaker than the Warriors.
Especially in the fourth quarter, it was Hansen's home court.
Not to mention the Cavaliers entered the decisive phase with a double-digit lead, which means they have at least an 80% chance of winning.
As for the remaining 20%, it depends on whether the Splash Brothers can explode.
Both of them have the ability to reverse the game outcome with their incredible shooting form.
Malone obviously knew this, so he focused the defensive resources on those two brothers.
He even let Covington allow James to score inside to reduce their shot attempts.
