Chapter 953: [Go beyond yourself, always old 2]
LeBron James is under more pressure than in previous finals. As long as he is online, he will see fans predicting how he got Wuya Wang's post.
Most fans are optimistic that James can lead the team to win the Sun one or two games this time instead of being swept. There are few people who are optimistic about the Cavaliers winning the championship, including the Cavaliers players and the coaching staff.
The sun is too strong. Sweeping promotion in the west can explain everything, and the Cavaliers lost two games in the east.
Online fans voted to predict the outcome. 87% of the fans voted for the sun to win, 3% of the fans favored the Cavaliers, and 10% voted for neutral votes.
Neutral option is set for passers-by, they think the NBA game is not good-looking, but occasionally they will read the news to understand the score and game results.
The most terrible thing is the fans' message, which is very bad for the Cavaliers.
"How can the Cavaliers have a 3% chance of winning the championship? They were 100% runner-up in the finals, and the Suns are 100% champions. This shows that the chances of the Cavaliers winning are zero."
"Matthews 'performance exceeded expectations, but Boozer and Mo Williams failed. The Cavaliers are now James' single-core leader? Certainly they can't beat the two star guards leading the sun."
"The total salary of the Cavaliers is 30 million more than the sun. The upstairs tells me that James is a single-core leader? Guo Xu is only three years older than him, and he has to abuse his single-core life."
In order to avoid the negative emotions of "definite defeat" for the players, the Cavaliers rejected the media interview before the game. The coaching staff advised the players not to watch the news online and prepare for the game with all their strength.
Did indeed have an effect. The Cavaliers players were brave and performed well in the first game. The four scored in double figures.
James handles the ball reasonably and shoots very well. He played 45 minutes, 9 of 16 shots, 4 of 5 3-pointers, 2 of 2 free throws, and scored 24 points, 10 rebounds and 6 assists.
It is a pity that he is too steady. Boozer is in a normal state. When the outside competition is completely at a disadvantage, it is enough for the core to only throw 16 goals.
James is selfless and comprehensive, and has handed over the task of the last quarter to his good brother Boozer. Boozer failed to give James 2 of 4 shots enough support, 2 of 6 in the final quarter, and 2 of 2 free throws only got 6 points.
93 to 87 in the final game, the sun made a start with a shock.
Can score the sun defense less than a hundred, the Cavaliers' defense is very successful, but their offense is too bad.
In the second game James increased his shots, and his shooting rate immediately dropped. He made 11 of 24 shots, 1 of 3 3-pointers, 7 of 9 free throws, scored 30 points, 9 rebounds, 4 assists and 4 steals.
The coaching staff gave James unlimited shooting rights, allowing his teammates to open the opportunity, because James has the most obvious advantage in the 3rd position.
But now James throws more than 20 goals per game is the limit, he will panic if he takes more than 30 shots. He prefers to play in an all-round way, to drive teammates by organizing passes, and actively fight for rebounds.
The core of the Sun is Guo Xu who can make unlimited shots without psychological pressure. He made 15 of 32 shots, 7 of 7 three-pointers, 7 of 7 free throws, and scored 43 points, 4 rebounds and 8 assists.
The Cavaliers ’defense system was very powerful. Matthews’ main defense against Roy was very successful. Guo Xu increased his shots without hesitation. The efficiency was low but the attack fire was guaranteed. Four key goals were scored in the last 5 minutes of the last quarter. 9 points.
, The Suns went to the next city at home, leading 2-0. The difference between the two games is not big, but the situation is very clear.
The third game was played in Cleveland. James made 10 of 22 shots, 2 of 3 3-pointers, 12 of 12 free throws, and scored 32 points, 8 rebounds and 5 assists. Boozer made 10 of 20 shots, 4 of 6 free throws, 24 points, 15 rebounds and 3 assists.
Unfortunately, the Cavaliers' other players were blocked. Mo Williams made 1 of 7 shots and Matthews made 2 of 9 shots. The outside line was severely suppressed by the Sun.
The Cavaliers lost another game at home, with a total score of 0 to 3 behind.
The Sun played the most stable is Guo Xu, 12 of 22 shots, 4 of 10 three-pointers, 6 of 6 free throws, got 34 points and 14 assists in double-doubles.
Guo Xu singled or passed the ball completely to see the Cavaliers' choice. When he met the single defense, he played very vigorously, and the opponent scored the ball as soon as he caught him. Mo Williams tried hard to defend, and he couldn't find a rhythm in the offense.
Mo Williams renewed his contract with the Bucks in 2007 for 6 years with 51.5 million. By 2013, the Cavaliers management is ready to trade him, and strive to introduce a better point guard to assist James. If the 1st position is not reinforced, the knight can't beat the sun, and the emperor can only be the prince.
James's mentality collapsed in the fourth game. When he thought about how he would be judged by the media once again, he became frightened on the court. He played 40 minutes, 9 of 15 shots, 2 of 5 3-pointers, 1 of 4 free throws, 21 points, 4 rebounds and 6 assists.
The core is played like this, I don't know that this team is winning, but the end is that the Cavaliers have no power to fight at their own home, 85 to 111 loss, 0 to 4 was swept.
The Sun's pick-and-roll tactics Cavaliers can't break, and when Gasol and Ibaka are partnered, they pull out to cover their teammates, one middle and one side. When Haslem came on the court, the Sun was running and slamming, speeding up the offensive and defensive transition.
Hasn't made much shots in the playoffs. Ibaka, who has lost many games, suddenly opened up. He made 10 of 10 shots and made 4 of 4 free throws. He scored 24 points, 5 rebounds and 3 blocks with a 100% shooting percentage.
Ibaka didn't hold the ball offensively, he had a solid midrange shot, and 14 points came from a screened jumper.
In order to defend Guo Xu, the Cavaliers line-up expanded, and they dared not shrink into the restricted zone for joint defense. In order to strengthen the offensive, the Cavaliers also played small ball tactics at a certain time. Both Valejo and Bidlins rested off the field, and Boozer came to the center.
Gasol Jr. also fought, playing 31 minutes in the fourth game, scoring 17 points, 12 rebounds and 4 assists.
In the finals, Gasol Jr. averaged 15 points, 10.3 rebounds, and 3 assists per game. It was the Sun's third scoring point, second only to Guo Xu and Roy, and had a star appearance.
Guo Xu averaged 26 points, 2.5 rebounds, 12 assists and 2 steals per game. He shot 50% from the field and shot three-pointers from ~ lightnovelpub.net ~ 90% from the free throw line. He was elected FMVP for the seventh time in his career and won the ninth championship.
James, as expected before the game, successfully became the king of Wuya.
After sweeping the Cavaliers, the Suns won the championship with a victory record in the playoffs. This is the second time Guo Xu played this record in his career.
President David Stern arrived in Cleveland early to conduct a rehearsal ceremony for the awards ceremony before the start of the game. The referee's punishment standard for the finals was very fair and did not favor any side.
After the first game, Stern was too lazy to use the home whistle and star whistle to increase the winning chips for the Cavaliers, James simply did not have the way to win. If the Cavaliers win the sun with a lot of free throws and make a little extra money, the fans will definitely whistle.
Vice president Adam Silva had no scruples. During the meeting, he suggested that Guoxu and Ibaka would be caught in foul trouble by blowing the whistle or simply sent Guoxu. Both ends of the Sun's offense and defense will be affected.
Silva is very confident, let him be the master who want to win 1 to 3 behind are sure to blow the reversal, not to mention one game behind? Stern has a good temper and rejected the suggestion.
Stern Ginger is still old and spicy. He knows from the Cavaliers' performance that unless he loses his face, it is impossible to help them beat the Sun. It is better to finish the game fairly.
From Stern's point of view, the Western team has more chances to threaten the sun, but several potential teams in the west seem to have tumors that affect their performance, or they are too dependent on the whole and lack superstars.
Has both superstars and the only reasonable lineup is the sun ...
