NBA’s aging star system

The day after the competition, Su Tian slept at home all morning before waking up.

The intensity of the finals is indeed great. Even Su Tian, ​​who has the King of Finals badge, has consumed so much. Imagine how exhausted Irving and James were.

On the afternoon of June 6, Su Tian came to the arena for normal training.

At this time in the arena, James and Irving had already arrived in advance.

Seeing Su Tian coming over, they greeted each other and continued their training.

After a while, Tyronn Lue came over and took Love with him.

"Kevin! How's it going? Are you okay, buddy! Can you play?" James saw Love coming back and immediately stepped forward to hug and greet him affectionately.

"LeBron, haha, I'm fine, I can play in the next game!" Love responded with a smile.

"Coach, is this true? Can Kevin play?" Su Tian asked quickly.

If Love can come back, it will not only help the team, but also help Su Tian personally.

"Yes, Kevin can play, but the playing time is stipulated and can only play twenty minutes, so Kevin is placed on the bench." Tyronn Lue said.

"That's great, as long as you can play! Come on, man, try to get the championship trophy back this year!" James said with a smile and patted Love on the back.

Su Tian is also very happy that Love can return. In this way, the team's overall strength will increase and the chance of winning the championship will also be greatly improved.

February 6, Quicken Loans Arena.

The fourth game of the Finals is about to begin, and before the game, the news that Love will play has been officially announced by the Cavaliers, and the morale of Cavaliers fans has been boosted!

Soon, as the referee blew his whistle, players from both sides took the field.

The Cavaliers' lineup is Irving, Su Tian, ​​James, Richard Jefferson, and Thompson.

The Warriors maintained their regular starting lineup, with Livingston and Iguodala and other substitutes sitting off the court.

On the opening jump ball, the Warriors grabbed the first right of attack. Curry advanced with the ball. After reaching the frontcourt, he passed the ball directly to Green.

Jefferson saw Green holding the ball and did not step forward to defend, so Green directly shot a three-pointer.

Regardless of whether he gets in or not, Green really dares to take action now.

boom--

Unfortunately, Green missed the opening shot and the rebound was taken by Thompson.

Irving received the ball, advanced to the frontcourt with the ball, and passed the ball directly to James.

James faced Barnes' defense and started a breakthrough directly.

The strategic deployment of this game has basically not changed much from the previous game. The only difference is the return of Love.

James easily broke through Barnes' defense and tried to walk to the basket with the ball. He was double-teamed by the Warriors, so James quickly passed the ball to Su Tian who ran out of the space.

Su Tian took the ball and shot a three-pointer directly.

Swah——

3-0

Although the first possession belonged to the Warriors, the first goal came from the Cavaliers' Su Tian.

The ball possession changed and it was the Warriors' turn to attack.

Curry came to the frontcourt with the ball. Facing Irving's defense, Curry did not call for a pick-and-roll. Instead, he started dribbling directly to try to mobilize Irving's defensive focus.

After dribbling continuously, Curry suddenly broke out and launched an attack from Irving's right side.

Seeing that Curry was about to enter the penalty area with the ball, James ran to help defend and let go of Barnes.

Curry also noticed James' movement, so he passed the ball directly to Barnes in the bottom corner.

Barnes took the ball and shot a three-pointer directly.

Swah——

Barnes made his first three-point shot.

Visible to the naked eye, after hitting the first three-pointer, Barnes let out a long breath.

3-3

Seeing Barnes' appearance, James also knew that Barnes was extremely unconfident in himself, so he also understood the next strategic plan.

In the next few rounds, James kept leaving Barnes open and running to help defend others, but Barnes failed to hit another three-pointer in succession.

Halfway through the first quarter, the Warriors were already 6 points behind the Cavaliers because of Barnes.

So Cole took advantage of the timeout to replace Barnes and get Iguodala in advance.

Seeing Iguodala on the court, James couldn't let it go anymore, but Tyronn Lue also took the opportunity to get Love, strengthening the team's offense.

Soon, at the end of the first quarter, the score reached 28-26. The Cavaliers were still 2 points ahead of the Warriors. The difference was very small, but at least it was a good sign.

In the second quarter, the Warriors ignored the Cavaliers and began to rotate normally.

On the Cavaliers' side, Irving and James continued to play, hoping to take advantage of the opportunity to widen the point difference.

The first possession of the ball in the second quarter was given to the Cavaliers. Irving came to the frontcourt with the ball and passed the ball directly to James.

James got the ball, faced Iguodala, called Love to pick and roll, and used the pick and roll to start the breakthrough.

James' breakthrough attracted a double-team from Iguodala and Green, so James broke through and passed the ball to Love.

Love caught the ball and shot a three-pointer directly.

Swah——

Love hit a three-pointer directly.

31-26

Love's condition remains good, and Green also gave up the strategy of letting go of Love.

The ball possession changed and it was the Warriors' turn to attack.

Livingston came to the frontcourt with the ball. Facing Irving, he did not choose to attack with the ball himself, but passed the ball to Green.

Green got the ball and while observing the movements of his teammates, he thought about how to play the ball.

Suddenly Green hit the ground and passed the ball to Iguodala, who was cutting in the air. However, James defended in time and Iguodala passed the ball to Clay in the bottom corner again.

Clay directly shot a three-pointer against Su Tian.

Bang——shua——

It has to be said that Clay had a lot of luck in this ball. The basketball bounced on the rim and fell into the net.

31-29

The battle with the Warriors in the second quarter was evenly matched. This was not the scene Tyronn Lue wanted.

In Tyronn Lue's imagination, the Cavaliers should have been suppressing the Warriors in the second quarter, but now it seems that there is no obvious advantage between the two sides.

Tyronn Lue was very impatient and kept pacing on the sidelines. He looked not in a good mood.

The ball was transferred and it was the Cavaliers' turn to attack again.

James came to the frontcourt with the ball. Of course, James knew what Tyronn Lue wanted, so he rushed directly with the ball, carrying Iguodala all the way to the basket.

Facing Klay's help defense, although James no longer had any passing space, he used his strength to push away the help defense and forced a layup.

33-29

Turning around, Green missed a three-pointer. James took off the rebound and started the fast break.

During the fast break, James passed the ball to Irving, who was following behind. Irving passed the ball again to Su Tian, ​​who was already standing outside the three-point line.

Su Tian took the ball and shot a three-pointer directly.

Swah——

36-29

Su Tian's three-pointers were still accurate, and the point difference gradually widened.

But when James looked at the Warriors bench, he found that Cole didn't have much emotion.
