In the offseason in 1997, the Cavaliers brought rainman Kamp from the Supersonics, which was a three-party deal. Now it seems that both protagonists are losers. Kamp later was undisciplined, ate Hessell, and lost his martial arts overnight. The Supersonics got the Bucks' new generation power forward, Baker, but he was turned into alcohol dependence by Seattle's rich and rich fanaticism, which also destroyed his future.

}

, the Bucks got the Cavaliers' All-Star point guard Brandon and power forward Tyrone Hill, and Brandon was later replaced by alien Cassel, which led to the classic story of the "Three Musketeers" at the beginning of this century.

In addition to the big deal, the Cavaliers also had extraordinary vision in the draft, selecting three rookies who performed beyond expectations - Jordan spokesperson Derek Anderson, fast point guard Brevin Knight at 1.78 meters, and small forward Cedric Henderson! In addition, the Lithuanian center "Big Z" Ilgoskas, who was selected in 1996 and only came to report in 1997, was the famous "Four Knights of the Knights"!

Big Z is the main center, averaging 14 points, 8.8 rebounds and 1.6 blocks per game, and he scored in only 29 minutes of playing time because he made too many fouls and couldn't play for too long.

Knight is the main point guard, averaging 9 points, 8.2 assists and 2.5 steals per game! ! In that era, this steal number could not get the steal king? But Knight's shortcomings are also obvious. First, he is too short and second, he does not have three points of firepower!

Henderson is a main small forward, averaging 10 points, 4 rebounds, 2 assists and 1.2 steals per game. As a second round pick, he is very amazing.

Anderson is in the sixth place, averaging 12 points and 3.4 assists per game

In the end, Big Z and Knight were selected for the first team of rookies, and Henderson and Anderson were selected for the second team!

Cavaliers have 47 wins and 35 losses, and their opponent is the Pacers who have refreshed the team's best record in the regular season.

Indiana, under the guidance of young coach Bird, scored 58 wins, ranking second in the East, but because she was in the same area as the Bulls, she ranked third and gave way to the No. 1 Heat in another area.

Bird was awarded the Best Coach.

Still, Sagittarius understands Sagittarius best! After all, the strength of the two teams is very different, and the Pacers easily advanced 3-1.

In the first game, the Cavaliers' immaturity and lack of experience were fully exposed. The four little dragons only had Big Z's stable output, contributing 16 points and 10 rebounds. The Pacers made 8 of 17 three-pointers, and the Cavaliers made 0 of 5 shots, and finally won 29 points 106-77! In the second game, the Cavaliers still had to rely on Kemp and Big Z to support him in the inside, and Kemp got 16 free throws! But the Pacers blossomed inside and outside, and finally won another game from 92 to 86. In the third game, the game came to Cleveland. The four little dragons finally recovered their form at the door of their home, and the Cavaliers won a game back.

But in the fourth game, Bird quickly adjusted. Although the Cavaliers received 38 free throws, twice that of the Pacers, the Indianaans finally won and advanced with their better offensive efficiency. The Pacers' shooting percentage is 48%, while the Cavaliers are only 39%

Kamp averaged 26 points, 10.3 rebounds, 1.3 steals and 1 block, and 11 free throws per game. This is his true series as the absolute core of offense and the only time!
