Basketball boy, starting to shine from the slam dunk
Chapter 1332: Meeting the Knights
Soon the 2th section begins.
After entering the second quarter, the role players of the Cavaliers began to find their form, while James reduced his personal offense, began to control the overall situation and create opportunities for his teammates.
In the second quarter, the Cavaliers led the Celtics 2:21.
James scored 5 points, 5 rebounds and 2 assists. The game was only halfway through, but James had already achieved a double-double of 17+10.
And his outstanding performance continued. In the third quarter, James scored 3 points, 6 rebounds and 2 assists, leading the Cavaliers to end the quarter with 3:20, already leading the Celtics.
Entering the final quarter, the Celtics began to fight back.
However, James' performance was still outstanding, scoring 12 points, 3 rebounds and 4 assists in a single quarter, especially in the last 5 minutes, when his teammates failed to score, he stood up, scored 6 points alone, and assisted his teammates to hit three-pointers, suppressing the Celtics.
At the end of the game, the Cavaliers defeated the Celtics 87:79 to win the seventh game and successfully advanced to the finals.
James once again proved his dominance in the game, scoring 35 points, 15 rebounds and 9 assists, almost another triple-double.
You should know that in this game the Cavaliers grabbed a total of 41 rebounds, and James accounted for 15 of them. The team had a total of 15 assists, and James contributed 9 of them alone. His personal score exceeded 1/3 of the team's total score, and even almost caught up with 1/2 of the Celtics' total score.
In a game with a score of 87:79, James scored 35 points, 15 rebounds and 9 assists by himself. It is no exaggeration to say that he was like a god descending to earth.
The Eastern Conference Finals have come to an end, and the Cavaliers will meet the Lakers in the finals to compete for the championship.
Now the fans are even more excited.
“I didn’t expect the Cavaliers to actually win.”
"Yeah, I didn't expect to see James vs. Zhuang Yu in the finals. But looking at the current situation, I'm afraid Zhuang Yu is no match for James."
"In the three rounds of the playoffs, James' performance was so strong that he was not inferior to Michael Jordan at all."
"No, I think he's even stronger than Jordan. Don't forget what the Bulls' lineup was like? And what the Cavaliers' lineup was like? Could they have made it to Game 1 in the first round without James? Could they have won Game 2 and advanced to the second round without him? But in the second round, the Cavaliers swept the Raptors 2-4. I didn't expect that, but it also proves how strong James is. Looking at DeRozan's expression at the time, it seemed like he was almost doubting his life. And in the Eastern Conference Finals, could the Cavaliers have reversed the situation from 0:0 without James? Could they have made it to Game 2 without him? Could they have won Game ?"
"Indeed, especially in Game 8 of the Eastern Conference Finals, when Love was injured, it can be said that James defeated the Celtics single-handedly. They have reached the Finals for eight consecutive years. If the previous seven years were due to the Big Three, then this time it was not the case."
Throughout the Eastern Conference Finals, James almost convinced everyone with his ultimate personal performance.
At this time, everyone only has admiration when mentioning LeBron James.
To the extent that they believe that as long as James is there, he might be able to replicate the previous miracle in the finals and lead the Cavaliers to win the championship.
If that is the case, it will be the most extreme performance of personal heroism in NBA history, and who is the best player in the league will no longer be controversial.
In fact, after the Eastern Conference Finals, not only did the fans begin to favor the Cavaliers, but the confidence of the entire Cavaliers team also soared.
what?
You say there is no Irving this season, but we have James.
You said Love is injured and may not be able to play in the finals, but it doesn’t matter, we have James.
You said that this lineup can't compete with the Lakers, the role players are too bad, it's okay, we have James...
James' ultimate personal performance not only impressed the fans, but also impressed his teammates and even the coach.
When a reporter asked coach Tyronn Lue how they beat the Celtics, Coach Tyronn Lue's answer was simple, we have the best player, just give the ball to James.
It can be said that both the fans and the Cavaliers have an urge to worship James, as if everything is not a problem as long as he is there.
......
Los Angeles.
In the conference room.
Coach Scott and several assistant coaches sat together and studied the Cavaliers' three playoff game videos in preparation for the upcoming finals.
At this moment, they all had solemn expressions, and they couldn't help but sigh at the horror of James, which brought them a great sense of oppression.
Seeing everyone's expressions, Coach Scott smiled and said, "James is indeed very strong, but that doesn't mean the Cavaliers are strong enough, not to mention Kevin Love is injured."
Just as he finished speaking, Assistant Coach Madsen's phone rang. He glanced at Coach Scott, who waved at him to answer the phone.
Assistant Coach Madsen pressed the answer button, but his expression became even more serious.
After hanging up the phone, he said with a wry smile: "I just got the news that Love's injury is not serious and he should be able to return in the finals."
this......
Coach Scott suddenly felt unwell.
Just now I was comforting everyone, saying that Love was injured and there was no need to worry too much about the Cavaliers, but I didn't expect to get such news in the blink of an eye.
This is obviously not good news for the Lakers.
Coach Scott took a deep breath, adjusted his mood, and said: "It doesn't matter. Even if Love can return, the Cavaliers' overall lineup is not as good as ours. They have Love, we also have Lopez, they have JR Smith, we have Clarkson, they have Derrick Rose, we have Holiday. We also have sharpshooter Korver and Kyle Anderson... Whether it is the starting lineup or the rotation lineup, we have the advantage."
Assistant Coach Madsen and the other two nodded.
This is true, but what they are worried about is not Love and the other players on the Cavaliers, but LeBron James.
Previously, Zhuang Yu was able to fight back against Kevin Durant, Curry, and Harden, and his performance was even better than theirs.
But what about against James?
It’s not that they don’t believe in Zhuang Yu’s ability, but James’ performance in this series is really terrifying.
"Boom boom..."
Coach Scott knocked on the table and said in a deep voice: "Okay, I know what you are worried about. James is indeed very strong, so let's start with the other players of the Cavaliers."
"Ah."
"right......"
Several teaching assistants nodded and began to discuss.
......
at the same time.
In the training stadium.
Zhuang Yu stood outside the three-point line and received a pass from Nance Jr. He directly took an ultra-long three-point shot. With a slight sound, the basketball accurately penetrated the net.
There was actually no training today, so there were only Zhuang Yu, Nance Jr., Anderson, Clarkson, Lopez, and Kuzma in the gym at this time.
They did not conduct full-load training, but simply shot some shots to maintain their shooting touch. After all, they had just finished the Western Conference Finals and needed to recover their physical strength to prepare for the finals.
None of the other players came to the gym, Zhuang Yu came because he was used to it.
After a set of three-point shots, several people came to the sidelines.
Yang Jinsong handed them towels and water.
Kuzma unscrewed the water bottle and took a sip. He looked as if he was about to say something, but finally said, "What do you think of the Cavaliers?"
Clarkson rolled his eyes, slapped Kuzma on the back of the head, and said unhappily, "What are you looking at? Use your eyes."
Kuzma shrank his head, covered the back of his head with his hands, and said weakly: "No, I just haven't played in the finals, I'm a little nervous."
Lopez smiled and said, "Why are you nervous? We've already played in the Western Conference Finals. The Finals are just like that. We'll play the way we play."
Seeing Kuzma still looking nervous, Zhuang Yu joked: "How about I give the coach a suggestion and ask you to defend James?"
what?
Kuzma widened his eyes and stammered, "No need, I'm still a rookie, I think Korver is enough, or Anderson is also OK. Yes, Anderson has height, wingspan, and speed, he is better at defense than me."
Anderson gave Kuzma a disdainful look and said, "Don't worry, it's not your turn yet. This is the finals, and it's hard to say whether you, a rookie, will have a chance to play."
Ah this...
Hearing that it was uncertain whether he would have a chance to play, Kuzma immediately became depressed and muttered quietly: "Actually...it's not impossible for me to defend James."
Ha ha......
Several people laughed.
......
After laughing, Zhuang Yu said, "Looking at James' form in this playoffs, it's really not easy for us to defend him. But it doesn't matter. If we can't defend him, we can just fight back on the offensive end."
Now the outside world is discussing what will happen when Zhuang Yu meets James in the finals. Can he still perform as well as he did before against the Warriors and Rockets?
Of course, one of them is a defender and the other is a forward, which are not the same positions, but as the ace players of their respective teams, they will naturally be compared together.
Moreover, in this year's playoffs, both Zhuang Yu and James performed very well. One is the best player in the Western Conference and the other is the best player in the Eastern Conference.
Naturally, it became the focus of people's discussion.
“I’m a little excited when I think about it.”
Zhuang Yu said to himself, he also felt the pressure, but more of it was excitement and excitement. Only a strong opponent can make him stronger.
He is not afraid of challenges and has confidence in himself!
There are two players in the league who are known as unsolvable players, LeBron James and Kevin Durant. Kevin Durant has already played against each other.
Now, it's time to take on LeBron James.
......
Soon, the finals arrived.
Because the Lakers have a better regular season record than the Cavaliers, they have home-court advantage, and the first two games of the finals will be played at the Lakers' home court, Staples Center.
The stadium was packed and extremely lively because this was the finals and it was a highly anticipated match.
"coming."
The noise in the stands suddenly swelled as players from both teams came out.
