Tim Duncan and Split jumped up and tried to grab the rebound from Wang Yan.
But it's a pity.
Wang Yan did not give them a chance.

then.
Wang Yan jumped again.
This time he grabbed the ball with both hands and slammed it into the basket steadily.
Followed by a deafening dunk sound.
The Cavaliers scored two more points.
The Spurs' defense ultimately ended in failure.
Fortunately, the Spurs players' performance on the offensive end was quite satisfactory.
Ten seconds later, Ginobili rushed into the frontcourt with the ball and made continuous crossover steps to get past Irving and Jack!
The next second, Ginobili resolutely rushed into the Cavaliers' basket.
It seemed that at this moment, Ginobili wanted to challenge Wang Yan
But the results were cruel.
When Wang Yan rushed in front of Ginobili, Yaodao suddenly felt a strong sense of oppression, which made Ginobili change his mind instantly.
The next second, Ginobili threw the basketball in his hand to Duncan in the inside at almost the fastest speed!
As the most famous star in the Spurs team at present.
Duncan's condition in this game was terrible.
Although, now on the Cavaliers side, the player responsible for defending Duncan has been replaced by TT.
But Duncan still lacks confidence!
After Duncan leaned against TT with his back, he was thinking about how to attack the opponent's defense, when suddenly a big hand cut the basketball from Duncan's hand!
That’s right, this person is Wang Yan.
Another counterattack by the Cavaliers.
Wang Yan took big strides, ran wildly to the inside, and completed a slam dunk directly from the free throw line.
After this dunk.
The third quarter of the game also came to an end.
The Cavaliers, playing at home, are currently leading the Spurs by seven points, 87:80.

This is the terrifying oppressive power of Wang Yan.
It is worth mentioning that in addition to scoring a large number of points, Wang Yan also contributed 6 blocks.
This is the scariest place.
"Wow! Charles, this is the Spurs team you support? The defense carefully built by Popovich was easily broken by Wang Yan!"
After the third quarter, O'Neal did not forget to mock Barkley.
Barkley's face is now livid.
However, he did not want to surrender so early, and continued to say to O'Neal with great confidence: "Hey man, please don't open the champagne at halftime, okay?"
"There's still a full period left."
"The Cavaliers are only leading by eight points, not twenty-eight points. The Spurs have a chance!"
Just as Barkley and O'Neal were arguing, the final battle was about to begin.
In the stands, tens of thousands of Cavaliers fans were the first to give their warm cheers.
For the Cavaliers, after this game, they will have two away games, so the Cavaliers fans will not be able to see the Cavaliers players perform at home for a while.
The Cavaliers also want to use two consecutive wins to boost their morale for their away trip!
After the start of the last quarter, the head coaches of both sides made substitutions.
On the Cavaliers side, Jack was replaced by Jimmy Butler who had recovered his physical fitness, and on the Spurs side, Popovich replaced Tony Parker with Danny Green!
The real decisive battle has begun!
The Cavaliers have the ball on offense.
When Irving crossed the center line with the ball, he immediately saw Jimmy Butler who was frantically asking for the ball!
After staying on the bench for most of the quarter, Butler's physical strength had already recovered!
Now, Butler seems eager to show his offensive talent in the game.
Left side of the three-point line.
Jimmy Butler took a shot immediately after receiving the pass from Irving!
Swish!
The basketball flew over Danny Green's head and went straight to the basket!
"Butler!! Three-pointer made."
"It seems that after a period of adjustment, Butler has regained his touch!"
In the Tianchao Sports studio, Yu Jia's tone was filled with relaxation after seeing Butler's shot successfully fly into the basket.
In Yu Jia's opinion, as long as the Cavaliers' outside players can find their shooting touch, then the Cavaliers' chances of winning will be greatly increased.
just now.
For the Spurs, it was a race against time. In the Spurs' offensive round, Tony Parker quickly carried the ball to the frontcourt.
However, the Cavaliers' outside players were very focused.
For a moment.
Irving rushed to Tony Parker.
Tony Parker was eager to score and chose to ignore it in this attack!
Tony Parker received the basketball and shot immediately!
Irving's right hand successfully touched the basketball at the moment Tony Parker shot, which changed the trajectory of Tony Parker's shot.
Suddenly.
The basketball hit the edge of the basket!
In the paint, the rebound was undoubtedly grabbed by Wang Yan! !
This is Wang Yan’s strength.
It has the momentum of one man blocking the pass from ten thousand.
On the sidelines of the Spurs team, Popovich was shouting out his players' names loudly, asking every Spurs player to put as much pressure on Wang Yan as possible.
But it's a pity.
Although Duncan and Split, the two inside generals, rushed to Wang Yan almost immediately.
But they didn't change anything.
Wang Yan still completed the breakthrough.
He easily and stress-freely broke through the Spurs' double-team!
then.
Wang Yan quickly rushed to the basket again and gave the Spurs a one-handed slam dunk.
This is the biggest problem facing the Spurs right now.
This is also a difficult problem that all NBA teams face when facing Wang Yan.
That is, they simply didn't know how to limit Wang Yan's scoring.
This is almost impossible to solve!
In the fourth quarter, the Cavaliers' offense was basically left to Wang Yan alone.
And Wang Yan did not disappoint everyone.
With his explosive physical fitness and endless stamina, in the end... Wang Yan scored easily!
Even in the final moments of the game, Popovich did not hesitate to use a rotation battle to consume Wang Yan.
But nothing worked.
