NBA: Art is trash talk
Chapter 383
Chapter 383
At the press conference, the reporters wanted to ask a lot, but the hottest topic was Livingston's defense.
"Mike, how much does Barbosa's injury affect the game?"
reporter asked.
"His injury directly affects the outcome. If he didn't suffer that foul, if he can continue to play, we can win this game."
Mike Brown blushed and said without a heartbeat.
Anyway, no one can prove this kind of thing that has passed, and he can talk nonsense as much as he wants.
This excuse can save him from being accused of losing.
"How is Barbosa's current situation, will he be able to play in the next game?"
The reporter continued to ask.
"It's bad, he's scary the way he is now, and I'm not sure if he'll play in the next game. Maybe not, but maybe he'll keep playing, he's a tough man."
Mike Brown continues to sell miserably.
In fact, this kind of minor injury is easy to recover, and the next game is three days later, and Barbosa can play completely.
"Now that you are 0-2 behind, do you think you still have a chance?"
reporter asked.
"Next is our home field and we will defend it."
Mike Brown changed the subject and never mentioned winning the championship. He has no illusions about the championship, and now he only hopes to win one or two games to save face.
"LeBron, in the finals for the first time and suffered 0-2, how do you feel now?"
reporter asked.
"I am very anxious, I want to win, what I can do now is to continue to work hard, maintain my form, and strive to play a better game."
James pouted and said that he is very irritable now, and he is not in the mood to answer those messy questions.
"Evaluate your teammates' performance today."
The reporter is still talking.
James can only say: "Barbosa and Gibson performed very well, and Big Z is also good. But our defense against He is not good enough, we need to be tougher."
The failure to defend well is of course Larry Hughes' responsibility. James didn't say it clearly, but everyone who understands understands it.
Afterwards, Gibson and Ilgauskas also answered two questions. Gibson expressed that he was depressed for not helping the team win the game and would continue to work hard.
Very official reply, if it is the truth, no one will know.
A first-year rookie who scored 20 points in the Finals, no matter whether the team wins or loses, he must be very successful personally.The team's loss will not affect his worth for the time being.
No one will think that the Cavaliers' loss is Gibson's responsibility.
After the Cavaliers, the Clippers attended.
Dunleavy, He Xinghui, Gasol.
"He, can you talk about Sean's foul? What do you think?"
reporter asked.
"Why don't you ask about that slap that Barbossa slapped me. I have a lot of opinions about that slap."
He Xinghui complained.
"Please, I'm a reporter. I'm asking you a question now. Please answer my question directly. This is your obligation."
said the reporter.
"I have no opinion, it's positive enough, next one."
He Xinghui said.
If the reporter does not cooperate with him, he will not cooperate with the other party.
"He, talk about your two fouls on Barbosa and Sean. Do you think this kind of foul is necessary?"
The next reporter learns to be smart and compromises.
There is no point in confronting He Xinghui, even if He Xinghui suddenly got up and left him now, it would not be surprising.A small fine from the league has no binding force on He Xinghui.
"Barbosa's foul was unnecessary. He knew that jumping would not interfere with my shooting, so he came completely in my face. He was not defending, he was venting his anger. Today he dared to vent his anger in my face. Next time he dares to vent his anger on my feet, maybe my balls are also in danger. As for Sean’s foul, it is very necessary. When the opponent starts to show toughness, we must respond toughly. Sean did a good job. He Let the opponent know that we are not easy to mess with."
He Xinghui turned on the double standard mode, leaving everyone speechless.
Of course, his crooked reasoning is also a little bit reasonable.
"He, after you were slapped in the face by Barbosa, you whispered something in Sean's ear. Excuse me, did you instruct Sean to do that? After all, Sean was a good boy before that."
A reporter asked, many people have noticed He Xinghui's action.
"I just told Sean to switch."
He Xinghui did not admit it.
"I do not believe."
said the reporter.
"up to you."
He Xinghui said.
"Paul, you had fewer rebounds in this game, what do you think is the reason?"
The reporter tried to remind Gasol that He Xinghui was grabbing data and wanted to sow discord.
However, this method is too naive.
There is no need for reporters to remind, this kind of thing is open and transparent in the Clippers.
For Gasol, to be able to win the championship, it is completely worth sacrificing one or two rebounds. How many people want to be robbed have not had this opportunity yet.
"We won."
Gasol said.
A bit of an answer, but the best answer.
If you win, what else matters?
"Mike, you fell behind by more than ten points in this game. Do you think you can continue to win when you go to Cleveland to play away?"
reporter asked.
"It doesn't matter whether we can win the away game, we still have two home games anyway."
Dunleavy pretended.
The reporter was speechless again.
That night, after the sports news came out, the comment section fell.
Xinghei, who had not been seen for a long time, appeared one after another, accusing Livingston of playing dirty.
A more radical point means that Livingston was coerced by He Xinghui and forced to do so. He Xinghui is an out-and-out ball bully in the team.
First he forced Brand to leave, and then drove away the disobedient Wilcox, leaving only those who obeyed him.
Star fans jumped out to refute.
"I can accept other aspects of Black Cousin, but I just can't accept Heizi's saying that Cousin needs to hurt people to win. But anyone with a 3-year-old IQ can't say such a stupid thing."
"Livingston accidentally hurt someone, what's the matter with my cousin?"
"Let's pull it out. At the level of the Cavaliers, my cousin can't lose. The Cavaliers won without Barbosa being injured. It's as if Barbosa didn't play in the first game."
"The sunspots continue to shout, we are already preparing for the celebration of the championship parade."
The last sentence is not a refutation, but it hurts Xinghei Jamie the most.
Because it's a fact.
No matter how positive they are, they can't change the fact that the Clippers are about to win the championship. They can only watch the star fans celebrate and watch the star fans froze.
On the 8th, the Clippers flew to Cleveland ahead of schedule and booked an entire hotel.
No way, it's safer this way.
If other people are allowed to live in, God knows if some Cavaliers fanatics will be mixed in.
The Clippers can't stand it if they sneak a little stuff into the food, or do something else disgusting.
Anyway, it's only a few days, and Elgin Baylor is willing to pay this little money.
In the evening, a blonde woman pretended to be He Xinghui's cousin, sneaked into the hotel, and was taken to He Xinghui's room by the waiter.
He Xinghui really wanted to ask the waiter, does he look like someone with a blonde girl?
"He, I am your fan and I admire you very much. I know you play hard, so I can reward you and reward you."
A blonde named Janice strikes a sexy pose.
He Xinghui seriously suspected that Janice was a knight fan, and wanted to seduce him, and there might be other means in the future.
He has never paid attention to this kind of girl whose origin is unknown.
He has no shortage of women.
Some star girls have arrived in Cleveland today, and the top girls among them are all carefully selected by Mark and they are completely reliable.
These people, as long as He Xinghui says, they can come to reward him at any time.
Besides, the Janice in front of her is pretty in the eyes of ordinary people.In He Xinghui's eyes, that is two words, ordinary, very ordinary.
He Xinghui called the others into the room and said, "This beauty said she would reward everyone."
Oh?
Cassel and others' eyes widened upon hearing this.
"No, no, I mean I can reward you, only you."
Janice quickly explained.
She can accept sleeping with He Xinghui alone, but she absolutely cannot accept a group of big men.
"That can't be helped. I like to share. If you don't reward them, I can't accept your reward."
He Xinghui laughed.
"."
Mobley.
He really wanted to ask He Xinghui quietly, if Zhen Ni could share.
Until now, he still misses Nuo Wen's mother.
It's not that Zhen Ni's peerless beauty completely fascinated him, the main reason is that he finds it very exciting to have a meeting with Zhen Ni.Not only can he green the boss, but also sleep with the teammate's mother.
Cassell whistled, hoping Janice would say yes.
"OK, but you have to come one by one, you come first."
Janice said hard-heartedly.
She decided to flee the hotel when she couldn't take it anymore, and then go to the police station immediately.
As long as He Xinghui and Gasol add trouble, that's enough.
"Sam, take your video recorder and record it for us, keep the evidence, we can't force it."
He Xinghui said.
"What? Shet, you disgusting bastards, I will never record it."
Janice yelled.
They were even recorded on the sidelines doing this, not everyone has this hobby.
"If you don't like it, forget it."
He Xinghui said.
There was no other way, Janice had no choice but to curse and quit the hotel. There was no way to do this job, and it was only a thousand dollars. If it was [-], it would be fine.
"Pity."
Looking at the back of Janis going away, Cassel regretted that he wanted to have a taste.
"He, call some star girls over, the competition will be until tomorrow afternoon, no problem."
Mobley said.
"Do you want to be on the news? Let's talk about it after the finals."
He Xinghui complained.
Calling a star girl may escape the reporter's sight, but calling a dozen or so, even the gods can't hide it.
The next day, the team got acquainted with the arena.
In the evening, the game is about to start.
The player came out, and it was the Clippers' turn to be booed.
Everyone else was fine. When Livingston played, the boos of the fans on the scene soared two notches, and all kinds of foul language came to the face.
Livingston passed by very calmly. Anyway, this kind of scolding is not painful, and the benefits of getting it are real.
In addition to Livingston, He Xinghui also enjoyed this treatment.
To be honest, the thing that Cavaliers fans hate the most is of course He Xinghui.
Hate Livingston, that's all on the surface.
He Xinghui entered the field with a smile. He regretted that the player could not provoke the fans, otherwise he would have several moves that could make the opponent crazy.
However, his faint smile was already a kind of provocation.At least some tempered fans were very upset seeing He Xinghui like this, very upset.
When the game started, the system reminded He Xinghui that Charm Star only provided 9% attribute bonus in this game, which was less than half of the home game.
There's no way, in a poor place like Cleveland, if there are more people, I'm afraid they won't be able to find a hotel to stay in.
In the regular season, the star girl group would not come to this kind of place.
Now, purely for the sake of the finals, the advertiser requires the star girl group to make an appearance.
In the group of star girls, there is a supermodel beauty in a bikini standing at the C position.
That figure, tsk tsk.
It's a pity that Chinese fans can't see it anymore. Several Chinese platforms cut this scene when they broadcast it.
The Clippers started, Livingston, He Xinghui, Maggette, Gasol, Perkins.
The Cavaliers are Barbosa, Larry Hughes, James, Pavlovic, and Ilgauskas.
The only change is that Pavlovich replaced Gooden.
Mike Brown originally wanted to replace Larry Hughes with Gibson and continue to bet on three-pointers like the previous game.
However, he also knew that the last match was a matter of luck, and this match may not have that kind of feel.
Furthermore, this is their home game, maybe they can enjoy some home games.
So Mike Brown is going to be steady first to see if he can gain an advantage with conventional play.
If you can, don't take chances.
If not, try again in the second half.
The whistle sounded, Perkins gave the ball to his teammate, and the Clippers went first.
He Xinghui moved, and Larry Hughes followed without losing.
Barkley joked: "My cousin slowed down. Do you think he exercised too much last night?"
"Charles, the Clippers have clarified that the blonde was there to cause trouble and was taken out of the hotel. Nothing happened."
Smith grumbled.
Janice's operation failed yesterday, but the Cleveland Honest Man still dishonestly fabricated the facts, saying that the Clippers collectively did something, and the story was well-written.
The Clippers also quickly clarified and produced surveillance evidence to prove their innocence.
But now, Barkley is still making fun of this stalk.
Barkley smiled and did not continue.
On the court, Maggette missed a shot and the Cavaliers counterattacked.
Now the Cavaliers still have three outside shots, Barbosa, James and Pavlovich.
Therefore, the Clippers' defense is still man-to-man, more outside.
James passed the ball, and Ilgauskas made a shot from the basket and scored two points.
Combining the inside and the outside has always been the best offense.
If you only specialize in inside or outside, it is easy to be targeted.
The Clippers' offense is actually a combination of inside and outside, with Gasol inside and He Xinghui outside, making it difficult for opponents to defend.
However, it's a good choice.
Because He Xinghui is more terrifying, the defense against the Clippers must focus on the outside line.
The Cavaliers basket was empty, and Livingston continued to pass to Gasol.
Perkins helped Gasol block Ilgauskas, and Gasol singled out Pavlovic.
In fact, neither can be considered singles. Pavlovich has to take care of defending Maggette, standing relatively outside, and there are still two or three steps away from Gasol.
When Gasol received the ball and he ran over, Gasol had already completed the set of actions of taking off and shooting.
The ball goes in.
The offense of the two teams today started from the inside.
2 to 2, it was the Cavaliers' turn to have the ball.
James had possession of the ball for halftime, but Maggette didn't harass him for fear of making a mistake and James would break through.Furthermore, steals are not his forte.
The rest of the Cavaliers were running, and Pavlovich had a chance, and was missed by the Clippers in a distance of more than one step inside the three-point line.
James immediately passed the ball and Pavlovic made a mid-range shot.
The goal was scored, but James still felt a little regretful.If Pavlovic can take two steps back, it's a three-pointer.
However, James ignored one point. It is precisely because Pavlovich is within the three-point line that the Clippers will miss him, because this is not the area where the Clippers focus on defense.
If Pavlovich throws out of the three-point line, someone will naturally make up for him.
Pavlovich knew that running into the three-point line and shooting two points was actually a very smart choice.Unfortunately, James does not understand.
Offensive and defensive transition, Livingston made a mid-range shot with a good chance, but unfortunately missed.
Similar to the Clippers, the Cavaliers also defend against outside three-pointers and the basket, and their defense against long two-pointers is very weak. The Clippers are most likely to have a shot in the area of one or two steps inside the three-point line.
The Cavaliers attacked, James broke through in a tank style, went to the basket and fouled Perkins.
James made one of two free throws.
5 to 2, the Cavaliers lead by 3 points.
James is a little depressed, this damn free throw, he always doesn't practice well.
The Clippers have the ball, the Livingston Clippers advance, and He Xinghui is also actively running.
Although the Charm Star bonus is relatively small, the speed is not too slow. Barkley is more of a joke, not really seeing that He Xinghui has slowed down at a glance.
This time, He Xinghui threw off Larry Hughes, ran out of position, and hit a three-pointer.
5 to 5, a tie.
In the next round, He Xinghui ran to catch the ball, was a step slower, was caught up by Larry Hughes, and had no chance to make a move.
He Xinghui made a forced shot, but was interfered by Larry Hughes and missed.
"Kenny, to be honest, I really think Cousin has slowed down a bit this game."
Barkley complained.
"It's all fake news."
smith.
"Hey, maybe more than one girl went in, maybe another girl went in later. Besides, it doesn't have to be on the bed to consume a lot of energy, maybe my cousin did something else. In short, his today The state is indeed not as good as usual. In this game, the Cavaliers may have a chance."
Barkley's way of predicting the Clippers' victory or loss is so outrageous, it all depends on He Xinghui's state.
If He Xinghui is in good condition, Barkley can ignore all other factors and firmly believe that the Clippers will win, otherwise he doubts that the Clippers will lose.
Cavaliers attack, home court advantage for the first time.
James made a small push before starting the breakthrough, but the referee didn't blow it.
Maggette's center of gravity was unstable when he was pushed, and when he recovered, James had already passed him.
Continue to catch up, and pay another foul.
James scored 2+1.
Maggette excitedly reasoned with the referee, saying that James pushed him.
Unfortunately, the referee ignored it.
James made an extra free throw.
In an offensive and defensive transition, He Xinghui was double-teamed by Larry Hughes and James.
He felt average today, so He Xinghui passed the ball to Maggette and let his teammates play.
Maggette hit the basket, but Pavlovich couldn't stop it and could only foul.
However, the referee did not blow his whistle.
Fortunately, Maggette had the upper hand and threw the ball into the basket when he was violated.
But this should have been a 2+1 ball, but the referee didn't give it.
Maggette held back his anger. If it weren't for the annual salary of several million dollars, if this was a wild ball game, he would have swung his elbow to the referee's head long ago, what the hell.
The Cavaliers attacked, James still wanted to break through, He Xinghui stepped forward to double-team, James split the ball to Larry Hughes, and He Xinghui returned to defense.
An embarrassing scene appeared. Larry Hughes was not very good at three-pointers and long-range shots. He shot when he couldn't catch the ball.
When he started the breakthrough, He Xinghui had returned to defense.
The mismatch between the two of them allowed He Xinghui to complete the feat of 1 defense and 2 defenses.
Larry Hughes had no advantage in breaking through He Xinghui, and he was not good at passing the ball, so he had to force a shot.
This choice was very bad, and the result was no suspense. Larry Hughes hit the iron and Perkins protected the rebound.
Realizing the problem, Mike Brown replaced Larry Hughes with Damon Jones.
The defense is almost there, Damon Jones at least has a good three-pointer.
Larry Hughes, who was replaced, threw the towel angrily. He was a serious star player before.
There is no reason for a star player to play for 3 minutes and be replaced if he loses a point. This is too disrespectful to the star.
He vowed that he must leave the Cavaliers this summer, and go to any team, as long as he leaves James.
On the field, the game continues.
After Jones came on the court, the Cavaliers' offense was indeed better. At least He Xinghui didn't dare to double-team James anymore. He had to follow Jones all the time.Otherwise, getting a few three-pointers from Jones would be quite uncomfortable.
After a breakthrough, James attracted Gasol to make up the defense, scored Pavlovic, and Pavlovich made a layup.
In the transition between offense and defense, He Xinghui squeezed Damon Jones away with his strength, and abruptly got rid of the entanglement between him and James.
Then He Xinghui took the ball and made a shot.
"After the game, the media wanted to say that my cousin broke through the double-teaming of James and Jones and hit a three-pointer."
He Xinghui taunted, and James immediately put on the pain mask.
He had seen a lot of this kind of news before.
However, he has no choice but to double-team.
The Cavaliers had the ball, James controlled the ball and advanced, and then assisted Barbosa to make a hit.
It seems that Barbosa is recovering very well, his eyes have healed, and his condition has not been affected.
This made the Cavaliers fans a little relieved.
For the Cavaliers, Barbosa's firepower has been indispensable.
The two teams continued to come and go, and in the 8th minute, it was 20 to 20, and the two teams were tied.
He Xinghui took a rest, but James continued to play.
This is the point-chasing time period for the Cavaliers. James didn't show politeness to the Clippers, and directly dominated the audience.
However, this also consumed a lot of his physical strength, and he was panting heavily during the rest.
After the first quarter of the game, 36 to 26, the Cavaliers led by as much as 10 points.
However, this doesn't mean anything, and it doesn't mean that the Cavaliers have gained an advantage.
They have to survive the period when James rests first. If they can still lead by so much when James returns to the court, it will really be an advantage.
Even the commentary on the TV station has learned to be smart at this time, and did not say that the Cavaliers are ahead because they are dominant.
They are all emphasizing that He Xinghui only played less than 8 minutes in the first quarter, and the second quarter may be full.
Then, the second quarter started.
The Clippers are Cassel, Mobley, He Xinghui, Singleton, and Norman.
The Cavaliers are Gibson, Larry Hughes, Marshall, Gooden, Varejao.
Larry Hughes, who only played 3 minutes in the first quarter, was sent to deal with He Xinghui. After all, he is the second and third player in the team, so it is impossible not to use it.
Mike Brown only hopes that this bench lineup can withstand the Clippers' offensive, delay as much time as possible, and lose less, until James returns.
The Clippers attacked, and Larry Hughes and Marshall double-teamed He Xinghui.
Cassell and Mobley played together, Mobley cut to the basket, Cassell passed the ball, and Mobley made a layup.
"Rotation, rotation."
Mike Brown yelled from the sidelines that he hoped that the players would not miss anyone when they played 3 on 4.
This request is really too much.
However, who made him a coach.
The Cavaliers attacked, He Xinghui also switched defenses with Mobley, and He Xinghui defended Larry Hughes.
Larry Hughes' breakthrough ability is far inferior to that of James. He tried to control the basketball to no avail, and then fell into confusion.
Gibson ran over to meet, trying to reorganize, and Larry Hughes didn't pass the ball, as if he was sleepwalking.
After continuing for a while, Mobley suddenly came over to take out the ball, and Larry Hughes made a basketball miss.
This is what sticks to the ball, and most coaches don't like a player who sticks to the ball.
The Clippers played a fast break, but the Cavaliers returned to defense very quickly, which did not let the Clippers succeed.
However, the Clippers don't only play fast breaks.
Mobley passed the ball back to Cassell, and continued to run himself.
At this time, He Xinghui also made an air cut to the Cavaliers' basket under the cover of Singleton.
Cassel threw the ball to the basket, and He Xinghui almost failed to take off for a gap, and finally dunked the ball into the basket barely.
Although it succeeded, it doesn't look very good, and I don't know if it will be among the top ten goals in the final.
Kassel overestimated He Xinghui's bounce, and today He Xinghui's attribute bonus is too little.
The Clippers scored points one after another, and the Cavaliers fans watching were particularly anxious.
Mike Brown was also in a hurry, he looked at the time from time to time, or looked at James.
If possible, he can't wait to replace James immediately.
However, he didn't last long.
After playing 3 minutes in the second quarter, the Clippers chased by 8 points.
Then, Mike Brown put on James and replaced Larry Hughes.
Larry Hughes clenched his fists, and when he passed by Mike Brown, he almost couldn't resist punching him.
It's just unreasonable, it's so fucking bullying.
After becoming famous, he has never been humiliated like this.
"Larry Hughes is really not good enough."
Smith sighed.
"He needs to change teams."
Buckley said.
"I hope the team can replace Larry Hughes with Josh Howard, who can both attack and defend."
"It is difficult to replace Josh Howard, but it may be more interesting to replace Lagabel."
"It really doesn't work, it's okay to change Battier."
Cavaliers fans said some nonsense, which made people laugh out loud.
A star fan took the opportunity to reply: "Why don't you trade with the Clippers and change your cousin."
"That won't work, the salary doesn't match, and the Clippers have to get another Livingston."
"Good guy, it turns out that Larry Hughes' annual salary is 1340 million, which is more than two James."
At this time, James was still in the last year of his rookie contract, and his annual salary was only more than 500 million.
On the court, the game continued, and the Cavaliers missed the offense.
James is not omnipotent. It doesn't mean that he will be able to score points immediately when he plays.
In the transition between offense and defense, He Xinghui slipped inside the three-point line and caught the ball for a long two-pointer.
The goal was scored and the two sides tied.
An advantage of 10 points is really not an advantage.
The Cavaliers attacked, James asked his teammates to help cover, he avoided He Xinghui and then broke through.
It's not that he can't break through He Xinghui, it's just that it takes a lot of energy to break through He Xinghui, and He Xinghui's defense is not vegetarian.
With a cover and a little tactical cooperation, the person James needs to face becomes Mobley, and the Clippers have no time to switch defenses.
Then James started, relying on his strength advantage to push all the way to the basket and scored a layup.
Singleton and Norwen are tied together, and neither can stop James.
Subsequently, Dunleavy replaced Gasol to strengthen the inside line.
The game continued, the Clippers attacked, He Xinghui missed a shot, Gasol grabbed an offensive rebound and scored a second offense.
"Don't let him layup."
James called out to Gooden.
He was dissatisfied with Gooden's defense just now, and felt that Gasol should not be given such an easy layup opportunity and should be fouled.
Anyway, Gooden will not play too long in this game, so there is no need to control the number of fouls.
Send Gasol to the free throw line, and you can bet that Gasol will not make a free throw.
Gordon was yelled at and dared not speak.
The Cavaliers counterattacked, James broke through and scored, Gibson made a three-pointer and scored.
James felt a little more comfortable, and felt that there were still one or two reliable guys in the team.
The two teams played a few more rounds, and then the main players of both sides came together,
At the end of the first half, the score was 57 to 60, and the Clippers led by 3 points.
The condition of the Cavaliers is not bad, plus a little home court advantage, and back and forth with the Clippers, so Cavaliers fans see a little hope.
However, this kind of hope makes the Cavaliers fans feel very uneasy. They worry that hope will eventually turn into disappointment like before.
They have experienced this kind of thing several times.
Therefore, even if the team bites the score and does not fall behind too much, Cavaliers fans no longer have the excitement they used to.
They are just waiting quietly now, waiting for the development of the situation.
In the second half, the Cavaliers began to change their tactics, and Mike Brown began to bet on three-pointers.
Although the team is only three points behind, it doesn't seem like much.
But Mike Brown is already very anxious. He doesn't believe that the Cavaliers can win in such an anxious state. The Cavaliers' ability to play key shots is also average, while the Clippers are a famous key team.
The Cavaliers went first, and Barbosa hit for the first time in the second half.
Mike Brown breathed a sigh of relief, this is a good start.
Immediately afterwards, the Clippers counterattacked and scored two points.
In this round, both sides scored, but the Cavaliers still chased for a point.
The Cavaliers counterattacked, and James himself made a three-pointer against Maggette, but the ball missed.
Mike Brown was flustered, but he was calm on the surface.
To throw a three-pointer, one must have a heart that can withstand ups and downs.
The Clippers continued to score offensively.
After a few rounds, the Cavaliers fell behind by as much as 6 points.
"Mike Brown doesn't have to play like this. There is a chance to play like the first half."
Smith commented.
"Really? On the contrary, I think Mike Brown's choice is right. Now there is at least a chance. Playing like just now has no chance."
Barkley countered.
On the court, the situation quickly verified Barkley's point of view.
He Xinghui missed two consecutive three-pointers, and his teammates also made three-pointers. The Clippers had a wave of power outages.
However, the Cavaliers made consecutive three-pointers during this period of time and played a wave of 11-0 attacks.
The Cavaliers went ahead by 5 points.
"cool."
"yeah."
"Great."
The fans at the scene fell into cheers, and the momentum of the team made people feel comfortable.
Courtside, Mike Dunleavy was calm.
As a three-point team, he is very aware of the characteristics of a three-point team.
Big ups and downs.
Regardless of how happy the Cavaliers are winning now, some of them will cry later when they become stronger.
As for the Clippers' current offensive problems, Dunleavy is not worried, he believes that He Xinghui can solve them.
The Clippers counterattacked and He Xinghui made another shot.
Even if he had two straight irons before, it didn't affect his choice at all, and it didn't even affect his confidence.
The basketball drew an arc and fell into the net.
The goal is scored and the three-pointer is achieved.
"hateful."
Cavaliers fans are depressed.
The Cavaliers counterattacked, James broke through and scored, and Gibson caught the ball and shot.
Relying on his higher height, Livingston interfered with his take-off, completely covering Gibson's sight.
Gibson hit the iron.
Gasol grabs the rebound and the ball is converted.
The Clippers counterattacked, Gasol stormed Pavlovich under the basket and scored two points.
When it was the Cavaliers' turn, Barbosa hit a three-pointer.
These are all normal phenomena, but Cavaliers fans have already begun to worry.
In the next round, James hesitated a bit, rushed to the basket and scored, but was sent to the free throw line and made one of two free throws.
Turning around, He Xinghui scored a three-pointer, which broke James' heart.
He realized that if the game was played like this, his team could only match the Clippers once with three offenses.
In the next round, James made a fake shot and scored a three-pointer.
James breathed a sigh of relief. If the ball is missed, the Cavaliers will collapse.
Now, they can last a few more rounds.
The Clippers counterattacked and scored.
Offensive and defensive transition, James made another three-pointer.
Maggette didn't fall for the trick this time, but focused on defending against shots.
He jumped high, blocking James' view.
James needs eyes to aim and adjust his long-range shots, rather than relying on feeling to shoot like He Xinghui.
The line of sight was blocked, and James made a three-point shot.
He Xinghui smiled, then covered his mouth, pretending that I can't laugh.
Upon seeing this, James contributed 50 points of anger.
He felt that He Xinghui didn't respect him.
Three non-stick is normal, everyone has voted for three non-stick.
Gasol protected the rebound and the Clippers counterattacked.
After a few rounds, the Cavaliers have fallen behind by 6 points.
Mike Brown did not make adjustments and continued to play like this, but replaced the exhausted Ilgauskas with Gooden.
This adjustment has not changed much in their defense.
The Clippers still attacked the outside line, and He Xinghui made a strong shot against Barbosa.
The opportunity does not seem to be very good, but He Xinghui has a matchup advantage and can fully guarantee efficiency.
Barbosa did not slap He Xinghui in the face this time, although he wanted to, but he was afraid.
He was [-]% sure that it was He Xinghui who ordered Livingston to poke his eyes.
He is now afraid that He Xinghui will continue to do this.
The goal was scored, but Barbosa's interference had no effect.
In the transition between offense and defense, Barbosa actively moved, but He Xinghui didn't keep up, and then Barbosa shot a long three-pointer one step away from the three-point line.
Goal in, he atones.
Unfortunately, this is not enough.
His offense is not stable enough, but his defense is steadily bullied.
James helped double-team, He Xinghui scored the ball, and Maggette scored two points steadily.
The two sides played back and forth for a few rounds, and the third quarter of the game was also over.
With a score of 85 to 95, the Cavaliers were already 10 points behind without knowing it.
Mike Brown's tactics failed.
ESPN's Jonas crazily criticized Mike Brown's tactics, and said that the Cavaliers lost to the coach and should change a coach.
He has criticized Larry Hughes, Gooden, the team manager, and even Barbosa, but he has not criticized James.
They need to create a concept that the Cavaliers lost and James didn't lose.
In this way, those fans who like James can continue to maintain confidence in James.
"Damn Brown, he lost the game."
Cavaliers fans cursed.
Losing this game, the Cavaliers fell behind 0-3.
So far, no team has reversed the comeback from 0 to 3, no.
In other words, if the Cavaliers lose this game again, they will be completely finished.
"There is a feeling of dreaming, feeling that the championship is in sight."
"There seems to be a sense of winning too easily."
The game is not over yet, but the star fans are already getting excited ahead of time.
This is already their routine, and fans of other teams can only curse in their hearts.Other than that, there is no other way.
The intermission is over, and the final game begins.
The Cavaliers sent their most powerful lineup, Gibson, Barbosa, Damon Jones, James, Pavlovich.
It seems that they are going to give up defense completely and fight the Clippers to the end.
Have to say, Mike Brown is a man.
The Clippers are Livingston, Mobley, He Xinghui, Maggette, Gasol.
They also don't want a center and try to maintain speed as much as possible.
This kind of lineup confrontation made the commentator and fans feel very awkward.
Because before that, it was popular to say that defense won the championship.
In the finals, there must be a powerful center on the court, there must be two big men, and then they will fight to defend.
But now, the two teams in the finals have all abandoned their center forwards and prepared to use offense to defeat their opponents.
It's rare and weird.
At the same time, it also seems to represent the development of the times and the advancement of basketball concepts.
(End of this chapter)
At the press conference, the reporters wanted to ask a lot, but the hottest topic was Livingston's defense.
"Mike, how much does Barbosa's injury affect the game?"
reporter asked.
"His injury directly affects the outcome. If he didn't suffer that foul, if he can continue to play, we can win this game."
Mike Brown blushed and said without a heartbeat.
Anyway, no one can prove this kind of thing that has passed, and he can talk nonsense as much as he wants.
This excuse can save him from being accused of losing.
"How is Barbosa's current situation, will he be able to play in the next game?"
The reporter continued to ask.
"It's bad, he's scary the way he is now, and I'm not sure if he'll play in the next game. Maybe not, but maybe he'll keep playing, he's a tough man."
Mike Brown continues to sell miserably.
In fact, this kind of minor injury is easy to recover, and the next game is three days later, and Barbosa can play completely.
"Now that you are 0-2 behind, do you think you still have a chance?"
reporter asked.
"Next is our home field and we will defend it."
Mike Brown changed the subject and never mentioned winning the championship. He has no illusions about the championship, and now he only hopes to win one or two games to save face.
"LeBron, in the finals for the first time and suffered 0-2, how do you feel now?"
reporter asked.
"I am very anxious, I want to win, what I can do now is to continue to work hard, maintain my form, and strive to play a better game."
James pouted and said that he is very irritable now, and he is not in the mood to answer those messy questions.
"Evaluate your teammates' performance today."
The reporter is still talking.
James can only say: "Barbosa and Gibson performed very well, and Big Z is also good. But our defense against He is not good enough, we need to be tougher."
The failure to defend well is of course Larry Hughes' responsibility. James didn't say it clearly, but everyone who understands understands it.
Afterwards, Gibson and Ilgauskas also answered two questions. Gibson expressed that he was depressed for not helping the team win the game and would continue to work hard.
Very official reply, if it is the truth, no one will know.
A first-year rookie who scored 20 points in the Finals, no matter whether the team wins or loses, he must be very successful personally.The team's loss will not affect his worth for the time being.
No one will think that the Cavaliers' loss is Gibson's responsibility.
After the Cavaliers, the Clippers attended.
Dunleavy, He Xinghui, Gasol.
"He, can you talk about Sean's foul? What do you think?"
reporter asked.
"Why don't you ask about that slap that Barbossa slapped me. I have a lot of opinions about that slap."
He Xinghui complained.
"Please, I'm a reporter. I'm asking you a question now. Please answer my question directly. This is your obligation."
said the reporter.
"I have no opinion, it's positive enough, next one."
He Xinghui said.
If the reporter does not cooperate with him, he will not cooperate with the other party.
"He, talk about your two fouls on Barbosa and Sean. Do you think this kind of foul is necessary?"
The next reporter learns to be smart and compromises.
There is no point in confronting He Xinghui, even if He Xinghui suddenly got up and left him now, it would not be surprising.A small fine from the league has no binding force on He Xinghui.
"Barbosa's foul was unnecessary. He knew that jumping would not interfere with my shooting, so he came completely in my face. He was not defending, he was venting his anger. Today he dared to vent his anger in my face. Next time he dares to vent his anger on my feet, maybe my balls are also in danger. As for Sean’s foul, it is very necessary. When the opponent starts to show toughness, we must respond toughly. Sean did a good job. He Let the opponent know that we are not easy to mess with."
He Xinghui turned on the double standard mode, leaving everyone speechless.
Of course, his crooked reasoning is also a little bit reasonable.
"He, after you were slapped in the face by Barbosa, you whispered something in Sean's ear. Excuse me, did you instruct Sean to do that? After all, Sean was a good boy before that."
A reporter asked, many people have noticed He Xinghui's action.
"I just told Sean to switch."
He Xinghui did not admit it.
"I do not believe."
said the reporter.
"up to you."
He Xinghui said.
"Paul, you had fewer rebounds in this game, what do you think is the reason?"
The reporter tried to remind Gasol that He Xinghui was grabbing data and wanted to sow discord.
However, this method is too naive.
There is no need for reporters to remind, this kind of thing is open and transparent in the Clippers.
For Gasol, to be able to win the championship, it is completely worth sacrificing one or two rebounds. How many people want to be robbed have not had this opportunity yet.
"We won."
Gasol said.
A bit of an answer, but the best answer.
If you win, what else matters?
"Mike, you fell behind by more than ten points in this game. Do you think you can continue to win when you go to Cleveland to play away?"
reporter asked.
"It doesn't matter whether we can win the away game, we still have two home games anyway."
Dunleavy pretended.
The reporter was speechless again.
That night, after the sports news came out, the comment section fell.
Xinghei, who had not been seen for a long time, appeared one after another, accusing Livingston of playing dirty.
A more radical point means that Livingston was coerced by He Xinghui and forced to do so. He Xinghui is an out-and-out ball bully in the team.
First he forced Brand to leave, and then drove away the disobedient Wilcox, leaving only those who obeyed him.
Star fans jumped out to refute.
"I can accept other aspects of Black Cousin, but I just can't accept Heizi's saying that Cousin needs to hurt people to win. But anyone with a 3-year-old IQ can't say such a stupid thing."
"Livingston accidentally hurt someone, what's the matter with my cousin?"
"Let's pull it out. At the level of the Cavaliers, my cousin can't lose. The Cavaliers won without Barbosa being injured. It's as if Barbosa didn't play in the first game."
"The sunspots continue to shout, we are already preparing for the celebration of the championship parade."
The last sentence is not a refutation, but it hurts Xinghei Jamie the most.
Because it's a fact.
No matter how positive they are, they can't change the fact that the Clippers are about to win the championship. They can only watch the star fans celebrate and watch the star fans froze.
On the 8th, the Clippers flew to Cleveland ahead of schedule and booked an entire hotel.
No way, it's safer this way.
If other people are allowed to live in, God knows if some Cavaliers fanatics will be mixed in.
The Clippers can't stand it if they sneak a little stuff into the food, or do something else disgusting.
Anyway, it's only a few days, and Elgin Baylor is willing to pay this little money.
In the evening, a blonde woman pretended to be He Xinghui's cousin, sneaked into the hotel, and was taken to He Xinghui's room by the waiter.
He Xinghui really wanted to ask the waiter, does he look like someone with a blonde girl?
"He, I am your fan and I admire you very much. I know you play hard, so I can reward you and reward you."
A blonde named Janice strikes a sexy pose.
He Xinghui seriously suspected that Janice was a knight fan, and wanted to seduce him, and there might be other means in the future.
He has never paid attention to this kind of girl whose origin is unknown.
He has no shortage of women.
Some star girls have arrived in Cleveland today, and the top girls among them are all carefully selected by Mark and they are completely reliable.
These people, as long as He Xinghui says, they can come to reward him at any time.
Besides, the Janice in front of her is pretty in the eyes of ordinary people.In He Xinghui's eyes, that is two words, ordinary, very ordinary.
He Xinghui called the others into the room and said, "This beauty said she would reward everyone."
Oh?
Cassel and others' eyes widened upon hearing this.
"No, no, I mean I can reward you, only you."
Janice quickly explained.
She can accept sleeping with He Xinghui alone, but she absolutely cannot accept a group of big men.
"That can't be helped. I like to share. If you don't reward them, I can't accept your reward."
He Xinghui laughed.
"."
Mobley.
He really wanted to ask He Xinghui quietly, if Zhen Ni could share.
Until now, he still misses Nuo Wen's mother.
It's not that Zhen Ni's peerless beauty completely fascinated him, the main reason is that he finds it very exciting to have a meeting with Zhen Ni.Not only can he green the boss, but also sleep with the teammate's mother.
Cassell whistled, hoping Janice would say yes.
"OK, but you have to come one by one, you come first."
Janice said hard-heartedly.
She decided to flee the hotel when she couldn't take it anymore, and then go to the police station immediately.
As long as He Xinghui and Gasol add trouble, that's enough.
"Sam, take your video recorder and record it for us, keep the evidence, we can't force it."
He Xinghui said.
"What? Shet, you disgusting bastards, I will never record it."
Janice yelled.
They were even recorded on the sidelines doing this, not everyone has this hobby.
"If you don't like it, forget it."
He Xinghui said.
There was no other way, Janice had no choice but to curse and quit the hotel. There was no way to do this job, and it was only a thousand dollars. If it was [-], it would be fine.
"Pity."
Looking at the back of Janis going away, Cassel regretted that he wanted to have a taste.
"He, call some star girls over, the competition will be until tomorrow afternoon, no problem."
Mobley said.
"Do you want to be on the news? Let's talk about it after the finals."
He Xinghui complained.
Calling a star girl may escape the reporter's sight, but calling a dozen or so, even the gods can't hide it.
The next day, the team got acquainted with the arena.
In the evening, the game is about to start.
The player came out, and it was the Clippers' turn to be booed.
Everyone else was fine. When Livingston played, the boos of the fans on the scene soared two notches, and all kinds of foul language came to the face.
Livingston passed by very calmly. Anyway, this kind of scolding is not painful, and the benefits of getting it are real.
In addition to Livingston, He Xinghui also enjoyed this treatment.
To be honest, the thing that Cavaliers fans hate the most is of course He Xinghui.
Hate Livingston, that's all on the surface.
He Xinghui entered the field with a smile. He regretted that the player could not provoke the fans, otherwise he would have several moves that could make the opponent crazy.
However, his faint smile was already a kind of provocation.At least some tempered fans were very upset seeing He Xinghui like this, very upset.
When the game started, the system reminded He Xinghui that Charm Star only provided 9% attribute bonus in this game, which was less than half of the home game.
There's no way, in a poor place like Cleveland, if there are more people, I'm afraid they won't be able to find a hotel to stay in.
In the regular season, the star girl group would not come to this kind of place.
Now, purely for the sake of the finals, the advertiser requires the star girl group to make an appearance.
In the group of star girls, there is a supermodel beauty in a bikini standing at the C position.
That figure, tsk tsk.
It's a pity that Chinese fans can't see it anymore. Several Chinese platforms cut this scene when they broadcast it.
The Clippers started, Livingston, He Xinghui, Maggette, Gasol, Perkins.
The Cavaliers are Barbosa, Larry Hughes, James, Pavlovic, and Ilgauskas.
The only change is that Pavlovich replaced Gooden.
Mike Brown originally wanted to replace Larry Hughes with Gibson and continue to bet on three-pointers like the previous game.
However, he also knew that the last match was a matter of luck, and this match may not have that kind of feel.
Furthermore, this is their home game, maybe they can enjoy some home games.
So Mike Brown is going to be steady first to see if he can gain an advantage with conventional play.
If you can, don't take chances.
If not, try again in the second half.
The whistle sounded, Perkins gave the ball to his teammate, and the Clippers went first.
He Xinghui moved, and Larry Hughes followed without losing.
Barkley joked: "My cousin slowed down. Do you think he exercised too much last night?"
"Charles, the Clippers have clarified that the blonde was there to cause trouble and was taken out of the hotel. Nothing happened."
Smith grumbled.
Janice's operation failed yesterday, but the Cleveland Honest Man still dishonestly fabricated the facts, saying that the Clippers collectively did something, and the story was well-written.
The Clippers also quickly clarified and produced surveillance evidence to prove their innocence.
But now, Barkley is still making fun of this stalk.
Barkley smiled and did not continue.
On the court, Maggette missed a shot and the Cavaliers counterattacked.
Now the Cavaliers still have three outside shots, Barbosa, James and Pavlovich.
Therefore, the Clippers' defense is still man-to-man, more outside.
James passed the ball, and Ilgauskas made a shot from the basket and scored two points.
Combining the inside and the outside has always been the best offense.
If you only specialize in inside or outside, it is easy to be targeted.
The Clippers' offense is actually a combination of inside and outside, with Gasol inside and He Xinghui outside, making it difficult for opponents to defend.
However, it's a good choice.
Because He Xinghui is more terrifying, the defense against the Clippers must focus on the outside line.
The Cavaliers basket was empty, and Livingston continued to pass to Gasol.
Perkins helped Gasol block Ilgauskas, and Gasol singled out Pavlovic.
In fact, neither can be considered singles. Pavlovich has to take care of defending Maggette, standing relatively outside, and there are still two or three steps away from Gasol.
When Gasol received the ball and he ran over, Gasol had already completed the set of actions of taking off and shooting.
The ball goes in.
The offense of the two teams today started from the inside.
2 to 2, it was the Cavaliers' turn to have the ball.
James had possession of the ball for halftime, but Maggette didn't harass him for fear of making a mistake and James would break through.Furthermore, steals are not his forte.
The rest of the Cavaliers were running, and Pavlovich had a chance, and was missed by the Clippers in a distance of more than one step inside the three-point line.
James immediately passed the ball and Pavlovic made a mid-range shot.
The goal was scored, but James still felt a little regretful.If Pavlovic can take two steps back, it's a three-pointer.
However, James ignored one point. It is precisely because Pavlovich is within the three-point line that the Clippers will miss him, because this is not the area where the Clippers focus on defense.
If Pavlovich throws out of the three-point line, someone will naturally make up for him.
Pavlovich knew that running into the three-point line and shooting two points was actually a very smart choice.Unfortunately, James does not understand.
Offensive and defensive transition, Livingston made a mid-range shot with a good chance, but unfortunately missed.
Similar to the Clippers, the Cavaliers also defend against outside three-pointers and the basket, and their defense against long two-pointers is very weak. The Clippers are most likely to have a shot in the area of one or two steps inside the three-point line.
The Cavaliers attacked, James broke through in a tank style, went to the basket and fouled Perkins.
James made one of two free throws.
5 to 2, the Cavaliers lead by 3 points.
James is a little depressed, this damn free throw, he always doesn't practice well.
The Clippers have the ball, the Livingston Clippers advance, and He Xinghui is also actively running.
Although the Charm Star bonus is relatively small, the speed is not too slow. Barkley is more of a joke, not really seeing that He Xinghui has slowed down at a glance.
This time, He Xinghui threw off Larry Hughes, ran out of position, and hit a three-pointer.
5 to 5, a tie.
In the next round, He Xinghui ran to catch the ball, was a step slower, was caught up by Larry Hughes, and had no chance to make a move.
He Xinghui made a forced shot, but was interfered by Larry Hughes and missed.
"Kenny, to be honest, I really think Cousin has slowed down a bit this game."
Barkley complained.
"It's all fake news."
smith.
"Hey, maybe more than one girl went in, maybe another girl went in later. Besides, it doesn't have to be on the bed to consume a lot of energy, maybe my cousin did something else. In short, his today The state is indeed not as good as usual. In this game, the Cavaliers may have a chance."
Barkley's way of predicting the Clippers' victory or loss is so outrageous, it all depends on He Xinghui's state.
If He Xinghui is in good condition, Barkley can ignore all other factors and firmly believe that the Clippers will win, otherwise he doubts that the Clippers will lose.
Cavaliers attack, home court advantage for the first time.
James made a small push before starting the breakthrough, but the referee didn't blow it.
Maggette's center of gravity was unstable when he was pushed, and when he recovered, James had already passed him.
Continue to catch up, and pay another foul.
James scored 2+1.
Maggette excitedly reasoned with the referee, saying that James pushed him.
Unfortunately, the referee ignored it.
James made an extra free throw.
In an offensive and defensive transition, He Xinghui was double-teamed by Larry Hughes and James.
He felt average today, so He Xinghui passed the ball to Maggette and let his teammates play.
Maggette hit the basket, but Pavlovich couldn't stop it and could only foul.
However, the referee did not blow his whistle.
Fortunately, Maggette had the upper hand and threw the ball into the basket when he was violated.
But this should have been a 2+1 ball, but the referee didn't give it.
Maggette held back his anger. If it weren't for the annual salary of several million dollars, if this was a wild ball game, he would have swung his elbow to the referee's head long ago, what the hell.
The Cavaliers attacked, James still wanted to break through, He Xinghui stepped forward to double-team, James split the ball to Larry Hughes, and He Xinghui returned to defense.
An embarrassing scene appeared. Larry Hughes was not very good at three-pointers and long-range shots. He shot when he couldn't catch the ball.
When he started the breakthrough, He Xinghui had returned to defense.
The mismatch between the two of them allowed He Xinghui to complete the feat of 1 defense and 2 defenses.
Larry Hughes had no advantage in breaking through He Xinghui, and he was not good at passing the ball, so he had to force a shot.
This choice was very bad, and the result was no suspense. Larry Hughes hit the iron and Perkins protected the rebound.
Realizing the problem, Mike Brown replaced Larry Hughes with Damon Jones.
The defense is almost there, Damon Jones at least has a good three-pointer.
Larry Hughes, who was replaced, threw the towel angrily. He was a serious star player before.
There is no reason for a star player to play for 3 minutes and be replaced if he loses a point. This is too disrespectful to the star.
He vowed that he must leave the Cavaliers this summer, and go to any team, as long as he leaves James.
On the field, the game continues.
After Jones came on the court, the Cavaliers' offense was indeed better. At least He Xinghui didn't dare to double-team James anymore. He had to follow Jones all the time.Otherwise, getting a few three-pointers from Jones would be quite uncomfortable.
After a breakthrough, James attracted Gasol to make up the defense, scored Pavlovic, and Pavlovich made a layup.
In the transition between offense and defense, He Xinghui squeezed Damon Jones away with his strength, and abruptly got rid of the entanglement between him and James.
Then He Xinghui took the ball and made a shot.
"After the game, the media wanted to say that my cousin broke through the double-teaming of James and Jones and hit a three-pointer."
He Xinghui taunted, and James immediately put on the pain mask.
He had seen a lot of this kind of news before.
However, he has no choice but to double-team.
The Cavaliers had the ball, James controlled the ball and advanced, and then assisted Barbosa to make a hit.
It seems that Barbosa is recovering very well, his eyes have healed, and his condition has not been affected.
This made the Cavaliers fans a little relieved.
For the Cavaliers, Barbosa's firepower has been indispensable.
The two teams continued to come and go, and in the 8th minute, it was 20 to 20, and the two teams were tied.
He Xinghui took a rest, but James continued to play.
This is the point-chasing time period for the Cavaliers. James didn't show politeness to the Clippers, and directly dominated the audience.
However, this also consumed a lot of his physical strength, and he was panting heavily during the rest.
After the first quarter of the game, 36 to 26, the Cavaliers led by as much as 10 points.
However, this doesn't mean anything, and it doesn't mean that the Cavaliers have gained an advantage.
They have to survive the period when James rests first. If they can still lead by so much when James returns to the court, it will really be an advantage.
Even the commentary on the TV station has learned to be smart at this time, and did not say that the Cavaliers are ahead because they are dominant.
They are all emphasizing that He Xinghui only played less than 8 minutes in the first quarter, and the second quarter may be full.
Then, the second quarter started.
The Clippers are Cassel, Mobley, He Xinghui, Singleton, and Norman.
The Cavaliers are Gibson, Larry Hughes, Marshall, Gooden, Varejao.
Larry Hughes, who only played 3 minutes in the first quarter, was sent to deal with He Xinghui. After all, he is the second and third player in the team, so it is impossible not to use it.
Mike Brown only hopes that this bench lineup can withstand the Clippers' offensive, delay as much time as possible, and lose less, until James returns.
The Clippers attacked, and Larry Hughes and Marshall double-teamed He Xinghui.
Cassell and Mobley played together, Mobley cut to the basket, Cassell passed the ball, and Mobley made a layup.
"Rotation, rotation."
Mike Brown yelled from the sidelines that he hoped that the players would not miss anyone when they played 3 on 4.
This request is really too much.
However, who made him a coach.
The Cavaliers attacked, He Xinghui also switched defenses with Mobley, and He Xinghui defended Larry Hughes.
Larry Hughes' breakthrough ability is far inferior to that of James. He tried to control the basketball to no avail, and then fell into confusion.
Gibson ran over to meet, trying to reorganize, and Larry Hughes didn't pass the ball, as if he was sleepwalking.
After continuing for a while, Mobley suddenly came over to take out the ball, and Larry Hughes made a basketball miss.
This is what sticks to the ball, and most coaches don't like a player who sticks to the ball.
The Clippers played a fast break, but the Cavaliers returned to defense very quickly, which did not let the Clippers succeed.
However, the Clippers don't only play fast breaks.
Mobley passed the ball back to Cassell, and continued to run himself.
At this time, He Xinghui also made an air cut to the Cavaliers' basket under the cover of Singleton.
Cassel threw the ball to the basket, and He Xinghui almost failed to take off for a gap, and finally dunked the ball into the basket barely.
Although it succeeded, it doesn't look very good, and I don't know if it will be among the top ten goals in the final.
Kassel overestimated He Xinghui's bounce, and today He Xinghui's attribute bonus is too little.
The Clippers scored points one after another, and the Cavaliers fans watching were particularly anxious.
Mike Brown was also in a hurry, he looked at the time from time to time, or looked at James.
If possible, he can't wait to replace James immediately.
However, he didn't last long.
After playing 3 minutes in the second quarter, the Clippers chased by 8 points.
Then, Mike Brown put on James and replaced Larry Hughes.
Larry Hughes clenched his fists, and when he passed by Mike Brown, he almost couldn't resist punching him.
It's just unreasonable, it's so fucking bullying.
After becoming famous, he has never been humiliated like this.
"Larry Hughes is really not good enough."
Smith sighed.
"He needs to change teams."
Buckley said.
"I hope the team can replace Larry Hughes with Josh Howard, who can both attack and defend."
"It is difficult to replace Josh Howard, but it may be more interesting to replace Lagabel."
"It really doesn't work, it's okay to change Battier."
Cavaliers fans said some nonsense, which made people laugh out loud.
A star fan took the opportunity to reply: "Why don't you trade with the Clippers and change your cousin."
"That won't work, the salary doesn't match, and the Clippers have to get another Livingston."
"Good guy, it turns out that Larry Hughes' annual salary is 1340 million, which is more than two James."
At this time, James was still in the last year of his rookie contract, and his annual salary was only more than 500 million.
On the court, the game continued, and the Cavaliers missed the offense.
James is not omnipotent. It doesn't mean that he will be able to score points immediately when he plays.
In the transition between offense and defense, He Xinghui slipped inside the three-point line and caught the ball for a long two-pointer.
The goal was scored and the two sides tied.
An advantage of 10 points is really not an advantage.
The Cavaliers attacked, James asked his teammates to help cover, he avoided He Xinghui and then broke through.
It's not that he can't break through He Xinghui, it's just that it takes a lot of energy to break through He Xinghui, and He Xinghui's defense is not vegetarian.
With a cover and a little tactical cooperation, the person James needs to face becomes Mobley, and the Clippers have no time to switch defenses.
Then James started, relying on his strength advantage to push all the way to the basket and scored a layup.
Singleton and Norwen are tied together, and neither can stop James.
Subsequently, Dunleavy replaced Gasol to strengthen the inside line.
The game continued, the Clippers attacked, He Xinghui missed a shot, Gasol grabbed an offensive rebound and scored a second offense.
"Don't let him layup."
James called out to Gooden.
He was dissatisfied with Gooden's defense just now, and felt that Gasol should not be given such an easy layup opportunity and should be fouled.
Anyway, Gooden will not play too long in this game, so there is no need to control the number of fouls.
Send Gasol to the free throw line, and you can bet that Gasol will not make a free throw.
Gordon was yelled at and dared not speak.
The Cavaliers counterattacked, James broke through and scored, Gibson made a three-pointer and scored.
James felt a little more comfortable, and felt that there were still one or two reliable guys in the team.
The two teams played a few more rounds, and then the main players of both sides came together,
At the end of the first half, the score was 57 to 60, and the Clippers led by 3 points.
The condition of the Cavaliers is not bad, plus a little home court advantage, and back and forth with the Clippers, so Cavaliers fans see a little hope.
However, this kind of hope makes the Cavaliers fans feel very uneasy. They worry that hope will eventually turn into disappointment like before.
They have experienced this kind of thing several times.
Therefore, even if the team bites the score and does not fall behind too much, Cavaliers fans no longer have the excitement they used to.
They are just waiting quietly now, waiting for the development of the situation.
In the second half, the Cavaliers began to change their tactics, and Mike Brown began to bet on three-pointers.
Although the team is only three points behind, it doesn't seem like much.
But Mike Brown is already very anxious. He doesn't believe that the Cavaliers can win in such an anxious state. The Cavaliers' ability to play key shots is also average, while the Clippers are a famous key team.
The Cavaliers went first, and Barbosa hit for the first time in the second half.
Mike Brown breathed a sigh of relief, this is a good start.
Immediately afterwards, the Clippers counterattacked and scored two points.
In this round, both sides scored, but the Cavaliers still chased for a point.
The Cavaliers counterattacked, and James himself made a three-pointer against Maggette, but the ball missed.
Mike Brown was flustered, but he was calm on the surface.
To throw a three-pointer, one must have a heart that can withstand ups and downs.
The Clippers continued to score offensively.
After a few rounds, the Cavaliers fell behind by as much as 6 points.
"Mike Brown doesn't have to play like this. There is a chance to play like the first half."
Smith commented.
"Really? On the contrary, I think Mike Brown's choice is right. Now there is at least a chance. Playing like just now has no chance."
Barkley countered.
On the court, the situation quickly verified Barkley's point of view.
He Xinghui missed two consecutive three-pointers, and his teammates also made three-pointers. The Clippers had a wave of power outages.
However, the Cavaliers made consecutive three-pointers during this period of time and played a wave of 11-0 attacks.
The Cavaliers went ahead by 5 points.
"cool."
"yeah."
"Great."
The fans at the scene fell into cheers, and the momentum of the team made people feel comfortable.
Courtside, Mike Dunleavy was calm.
As a three-point team, he is very aware of the characteristics of a three-point team.
Big ups and downs.
Regardless of how happy the Cavaliers are winning now, some of them will cry later when they become stronger.
As for the Clippers' current offensive problems, Dunleavy is not worried, he believes that He Xinghui can solve them.
The Clippers counterattacked and He Xinghui made another shot.
Even if he had two straight irons before, it didn't affect his choice at all, and it didn't even affect his confidence.
The basketball drew an arc and fell into the net.
The goal is scored and the three-pointer is achieved.
"hateful."
Cavaliers fans are depressed.
The Cavaliers counterattacked, James broke through and scored, and Gibson caught the ball and shot.
Relying on his higher height, Livingston interfered with his take-off, completely covering Gibson's sight.
Gibson hit the iron.
Gasol grabs the rebound and the ball is converted.
The Clippers counterattacked, Gasol stormed Pavlovich under the basket and scored two points.
When it was the Cavaliers' turn, Barbosa hit a three-pointer.
These are all normal phenomena, but Cavaliers fans have already begun to worry.
In the next round, James hesitated a bit, rushed to the basket and scored, but was sent to the free throw line and made one of two free throws.
Turning around, He Xinghui scored a three-pointer, which broke James' heart.
He realized that if the game was played like this, his team could only match the Clippers once with three offenses.
In the next round, James made a fake shot and scored a three-pointer.
James breathed a sigh of relief. If the ball is missed, the Cavaliers will collapse.
Now, they can last a few more rounds.
The Clippers counterattacked and scored.
Offensive and defensive transition, James made another three-pointer.
Maggette didn't fall for the trick this time, but focused on defending against shots.
He jumped high, blocking James' view.
James needs eyes to aim and adjust his long-range shots, rather than relying on feeling to shoot like He Xinghui.
The line of sight was blocked, and James made a three-point shot.
He Xinghui smiled, then covered his mouth, pretending that I can't laugh.
Upon seeing this, James contributed 50 points of anger.
He felt that He Xinghui didn't respect him.
Three non-stick is normal, everyone has voted for three non-stick.
Gasol protected the rebound and the Clippers counterattacked.
After a few rounds, the Cavaliers have fallen behind by 6 points.
Mike Brown did not make adjustments and continued to play like this, but replaced the exhausted Ilgauskas with Gooden.
This adjustment has not changed much in their defense.
The Clippers still attacked the outside line, and He Xinghui made a strong shot against Barbosa.
The opportunity does not seem to be very good, but He Xinghui has a matchup advantage and can fully guarantee efficiency.
Barbosa did not slap He Xinghui in the face this time, although he wanted to, but he was afraid.
He was [-]% sure that it was He Xinghui who ordered Livingston to poke his eyes.
He is now afraid that He Xinghui will continue to do this.
The goal was scored, but Barbosa's interference had no effect.
In the transition between offense and defense, Barbosa actively moved, but He Xinghui didn't keep up, and then Barbosa shot a long three-pointer one step away from the three-point line.
Goal in, he atones.
Unfortunately, this is not enough.
His offense is not stable enough, but his defense is steadily bullied.
James helped double-team, He Xinghui scored the ball, and Maggette scored two points steadily.
The two sides played back and forth for a few rounds, and the third quarter of the game was also over.
With a score of 85 to 95, the Cavaliers were already 10 points behind without knowing it.
Mike Brown's tactics failed.
ESPN's Jonas crazily criticized Mike Brown's tactics, and said that the Cavaliers lost to the coach and should change a coach.
He has criticized Larry Hughes, Gooden, the team manager, and even Barbosa, but he has not criticized James.
They need to create a concept that the Cavaliers lost and James didn't lose.
In this way, those fans who like James can continue to maintain confidence in James.
"Damn Brown, he lost the game."
Cavaliers fans cursed.
Losing this game, the Cavaliers fell behind 0-3.
So far, no team has reversed the comeback from 0 to 3, no.
In other words, if the Cavaliers lose this game again, they will be completely finished.
"There is a feeling of dreaming, feeling that the championship is in sight."
"There seems to be a sense of winning too easily."
The game is not over yet, but the star fans are already getting excited ahead of time.
This is already their routine, and fans of other teams can only curse in their hearts.Other than that, there is no other way.
The intermission is over, and the final game begins.
The Cavaliers sent their most powerful lineup, Gibson, Barbosa, Damon Jones, James, Pavlovich.
It seems that they are going to give up defense completely and fight the Clippers to the end.
Have to say, Mike Brown is a man.
The Clippers are Livingston, Mobley, He Xinghui, Maggette, Gasol.
They also don't want a center and try to maintain speed as much as possible.
This kind of lineup confrontation made the commentator and fans feel very awkward.
Because before that, it was popular to say that defense won the championship.
In the finals, there must be a powerful center on the court, there must be two big men, and then they will fight to defend.
But now, the two teams in the finals have all abandoned their center forwards and prepared to use offense to defeat their opponents.
It's rare and weird.
At the same time, it also seems to represent the development of the times and the advancement of basketball concepts.
