The Cavaliers boss said he wanted to make a 1-3 major reversal! He said he had achieved it in 16 years, and only 13 teams in NBA history have achieved it

On May 12, the NBA playoffs continued. In today's Eastern Conference semi-finals, the Cavaliers lost 109-129 away to the Pacers, falling behind 1-3 in the total score. The Cavaliers suffered a complete defeat today. They scored only 39 points in the first half and fell behind the Pacers to 41 points. The team scored a total of 8 sports goals in the first half, setting a record for the NBA history. In the second half, Mitchell failed to return due to injury, and the Cavaliers barely narrowed the gap, but when they were still 32 points behind at the end of the third quarter, the Cavaliers replaced the main players early and announced their surrender.

After the end of this game, Cavaliers owner Gilbert tweeted: "Cavs fans, yes, this is an ugly game, but we have experienced (1-3 reversal) before. It is time to win three games in a row, two of which are at home, so let's start with G5."

It should be noted that in the 2016 Finals, the Cavaliers also fell into a 1-3 behind after four games. Then, under the leadership of the three giants James, Irving and Love, the Cavaliers won the G5 away and returned to their home court to chew the G6. Then in the tiebreak battle, Irving hit a key three-pointer, helping the Cavaliers defeat the Warriors away, completing the only 1-3 to 4-3 reversal in history in the finals!

However, it is not easy for the Cavaliers to complete the comeback. According to statistics, in the entire NBA history, 95% of the previous 3-1 teams in the series advanced to the next round, with a total record of 280 wins and 13 losses! Moreover, the Cavaliers are currently facing Mitchell's injury problem. Not only is he stretched his calf, but he is also facing injury to his left ankle. It is not clear whether he can play in the G5 series!

According to the schedule, the Cavaliers will return to home court on May 14 to continue to face the Pacers. Can they complete a major reversal? Let's wait and see!
