With the same season, the knight's offensive firepower is still burst table, led by LeBron - James, the Cavaliers first round beat Pacers 100 rounds of shocking 115.9 points ranked first. For the talented knight, the attack has never been a problem.

With the Walker of the four games, Knight hundred rounds even lost 111 points, to know last year's playoff Knight hundred rounds lost points but 103.5 points.
With the Raptors series, the knight's defense will face the test, although the Raptors offensive efficiency compared to the regular season when there is a decline, but in recent years their state in the gradual increase. For the backcourt bad knight, the Raptors will be a huge threat.

Last year, the Eastern Conference finals, the Raptors 2-4 lost to the knight is mainly because the defense is not to force, simply can not stop the Knight singles + three-pointers. At that time the Raptors because the lineup with the problem is difficult to suppress the knight's fire, they could not stand the knight's small lineup, facing a dilemma. When the Raptors surrounded with James, their perimeter was off the hook. When the Raptors against a single defense, they can not prevent James and Irving man combat.
But this season, the Raptors through the defense of the upgrade on the defense, the first round of the playoffs they are in place on the Bucks defense. Now, the Raptors inside Ibaka, flank with Tucker, the two defenders are prepared for James. When the Cavaliers play a small lineup, the Raptors can also be Ibrahimovic on top of the fifth bit to play a small lineup, they turn the transposition speed to upgrade a number of grades, have the ability to keep the Cavaliers striker. Tucker defensive tough confrontation does not lose James, he can give James in one to one to make no small trouble. If the Raptors can limit James and Knight outside, their hopes of winning will be greatly increased.

For the Cavaliers, their biggest advantage is clearly in James this point last year, James face Carroll prevail, the Raptors in the third position no one can match James. But this year, the Raptors got Tucker, they can use Carroll, Patrick - Patterson and Tucker on the wheel of James. Taking into account James this season, a lot of consumption, once James physical decline, his performance may be affected.
Owen and Lori's top point guard is also the main theme of this round of series, Lori in the first round of poor performance, averaging less than 15 points, shooting only four percent, three-point shooting less than three percent, Performance compared to the regular season has been a lot of decline. But last year's Eastern Conference finals Lori played the Cavaliers performed well, averaging 20.2 points, shooting 47.4%. Owen is now in the same state, although the first round averaged 25.3 points, but shooting only 41.9%, third hit rate of 21.9%. Owen defensive bad, the Raptors will certainly let Lorita storm Owen this point.
Carrefour and Ibaka is also the key to the last year, the Eastern Conference finals Lok Fu field can win 15.2 points, with high efficiency hit the Raptors. Now the Raptors inside Ibaka guard, Carrefour can get so many opportunities?
