On the 21st, the Cavaliers relied on Donovan Mitchell to score 30 points and beat the Heat 121-100 in the first round of the NBA playoffs Eastern Conference series G1, and his scoring performance also set a rare record.
Donovan Mitchell scored 30 points
Mitchell scored at least 30 points in Game 1 of seven consecutive series in the playoffs, which only Jordan, the "God of Basketball," has done in the past, and he said lightly: "30 points is great, but I'm even happier with the defensive intensity I've shown." ”
Mitchell said of the Cavaliers' good start: "It's great, but we're not done yet, we have to protect our home court first, so we have to focus on Game 2." ”
All four series of the first round in the Eastern Conference have been played, with all four highly-seeded teams winning at home without an upset, while the Cavaliers will face the Heat again at home on Thursday in a two-game winning streak.
