NBA’s aging star system

The Cavaliers defeated the Green Army and won the third victory in the series. It was a foregone conclusion that the Green Army would be eliminated.

Stevens had already arrived in front of Su Tian and hugged Su Tian sincerely.

"Su, congratulations to you, you are very powerful, but I will plan tactics for you in the next game."

Seeing Stevens' laughing expression, Su Tian didn't know whether Stevens was telling the truth or joking.

"By the way, Su, Boston is a nice city. If you want to visit here, you can contact me."

Su Tian had a look of astonishment on his face, what the hell, I just killed you guys and now you want to recruit me?

"Su, let's go. Don't stand there stupidly. Go change clothes and be interviewed."

As soon as Stevens left, James came over and put his arm on Su Tian's shoulder.

"Okay LeBron, I'm going."

James walked back with Su Tian, ​​talking casually as he walked.

"What did Stevens just say to you?"

"Oh, haha, it's nothing. He said he would plan tactics against me in the next game."

"That's it, then it's okay, haha."

Seeing James acting nervous and pretending not to care, Su Tian found it quite interesting.

In the post-game interview, Su Tian easily handled reporters' questions. Su Tian is now very familiar with this kind of questions and answers.

The next day, May 5, was Game 22 of the Western Conference Finals.

Now both sides are 3-0, and the situation is actually very clear.

The Cavaliers and Warriors are super teams that far surpass other teams. Not only are their players strong, but there are also many coincidences.

For example, Curry's child labor contract on the Warriors' side, and Su Tian's rookie contract on the Cavaliers' side.

This is one of the reasons why both teams can easily outperform other teams.

In the fourth game, the two sides changed their formations again.

The Warriors brought out Curry, McCaw, Klay, Durant, and Green. As soon as he comes up, he will be beaten to the fifth grade.

The Spurs are, Mills, Green, Ginobili, Simmons, Aldridge.

The lineups of both sides tend to be small lineups, which have high requirements for rhythm and space.

I thought that this change of Spurs' lineup would bring some changes, but this was not the case.

At the end of the first quarter, the Warriors already led the Spurs by 31 points, 19-12.

In the second quarter, the Warriors continued to chase and fight fiercely, while the Spurs were very resilient and kept trying to chase points.

The two sides scored 34-32 in a single quarter, and the Warriors won by 2 points.

At the end of the first half, the Warriors already led by 14 points. It seemed that it was only a matter of time before the Warriors won.

In the third quarter, the Warriors continued to exert their strength, taking advantage of your illness to kill you, and their offensive firepower increased instead of decreasing.

In the third quarter, the Warriors led by 4 points. At the end of the first three quarters, the point difference had reached 18 points.

By now, many Spurs fans have figured it out, and this game will probably be explained here.

In the fourth quarter, the Spurs only played the first half of the quarter. Seeing that they couldn't catch up with the score, they replaced all the main players and surrendered.

120-100, the Warriors defeated the Spurs, successfully won the Western Conference Finals, and advanced to the Finals!

It's not that Popovich didn't think about resisting, but he really had no choice.

For example, Popovich strictly guarded Durant in this game. Durant was indeed restricted, but Curry made a shot.

Curry scored 38 points in a single game, directly taking away the Spurs.

This series of the Western Conference Finals was criticized by many people, mainly because of Pachulia's kick.

On May 5, the fourth game of the Eastern Conference Finals begins.

Before the start of this game, the Celtics officially announced that Thomas will miss the rest of the playoffs due to an aggravated hip injury.

Thomas injured his hip in a game against the Timberwolves in March, and he missed two games at that time.

In Game 6 of the Eastern Conference semifinals, Thomas' right hip injury further aggravated, but he still persisted with the injury.

The Celtics medical team said that since the first injury, Isaiah has been working hard to control the injury. After three games of the Eastern Conference Finals, Thomas' right hip gradually swelled.

In order to avoid more serious long-term injuries, the team doctors decided not to allow him to continue playing.

Thomas is indeed injured, but Su Tian doesn't know whether it affects his normal performance.

Maybe it's just an excuse for not wanting to fight?

So without Thomas, the Celtics instantly changed from a playoff team to an ordinary regular season team.

The Cavaliers chased and fought fiercely in the first quarter, scoring 29-19 in a single quarter, leading the Green Army by 10 points in a single quarter.

Irving started to exert his strength in the second quarter, scoring 15 points in a single quarter with sudden shots. The Cavaliers also widened the point difference again with 40-28 in a single quarter.

After halftime, the score reached 69-47, with the Cavaliers leading the Greens by 22 points.

In the third quarter, Tyronn Lue began to rotate players and began to prepare for the finals.

The Green Army does not have Thomas Jr., and no one can take on the responsibility of the offensive arrow. Although Horford is there, the tactics can still work.

But without the strong point of scoring, the Green Army could never catch up with the score.

The Cavaliers did not rush to kill everything. In the third quarter, the players were rotated, so the two sides played a draw in the third quarter.

In the fourth quarter, Su Tian came on the field, and the Green Army was still struggling to support.

Horford worked hard to fight against James when he was with the Hawks. Now that the Celtics are here, he still has to fight against James. Horford feels miserable.

But there is no other way, unless we go to the West, or James goes to the West.

Otherwise, it will take several years to get ahead in the East.

At the beginning of the fourth quarter, Su Tian made consecutive breakthroughs, either succeeding in layups, assisting teammates, or causing fouls.

In short, every breakthrough can yield something.

Halfway through the fourth quarter, the score difference had reached 25 points, and Stevens directly called a timeout.

All the main players were removed and replaced with substitutes, announcing the end of the Celtics season.

Seeing this, Tyronn Lue also took down all the main players and replaced them with substitute players.

In the end, the Cavaliers easily won Game 120 of the Eastern Conference Finals 98- and successfully advanced to the Finals.

Since James returned to Cleveland, this has been the third consecutive year to enter the Finals. It has to be said that it is also a success in another aspect.

As soon as the Eastern Conference finals ended, the publicity about the finals was overwhelming.

To be honest, this year's Eastern Conference Finals and Western Conference Finals were not exciting enough, and the ratings were even declining.

Moreover, the Spurs injured Leonard, and the Celtics lost Thomas. The league couldn't "help" even if they wanted to.

After the lack of main players, there is a clear gap in strength between the two sides, so the league can only focus on this year's finals.

After the game against the Celtics, the Cavaliers had two days off.

Of course, the players are not given a holiday to play, but the players are allowed to quickly recover their physical strength and find team doctors and physical therapists to repair their bodies.

On May 5, after that day’s training, Tyronn Lue informed the players of a meeting.

Su Tian followed the team members to the conference room.

"Guys, the Warriors are a very strong team. I won't say anything more. Three consecutive championships are just around the corner. I hope everyone will be more vigilant."
