Chapter 298 Say You Believe It
In the second game, the Cavaliers lost again.
They briefly took the lead in the first quarter, but after that, Ye Hao scored consecutively to even out the difference and overtake the score.
Barkley said that the Cavaliers' lead is really sluggish, and they can't last longer, and it won't work after a few rounds. , After that, James tried to use his personal offense to carry the Cavaliers forward.
He did get a lot of points.
It's a pity that in today's league, the person who can score points the most is not him, but Ye Hao.
It is a bit naive for him to want to win Ye Hao by scoring.
In this game, Ye Hao's personal score was the highest in the game, he scored 37 points.
James scored 26 points under the Thunder's strict defense.
He used more shots than Ye Hao.
Obviously, his scoring efficiency is much lower than that of Ye Hao.
In addition, Ye Hao also got 10 rebounds, 11 assists, 2 blocks and 2 steals in this game.
He recorded his first triple-double in the Finals.
One thing that needs to be pointed out is that all his data are real, but there is no water in it.
Getting a triple-double in this era is still very rare.
Unlike in the future, when the tortoise emerges, it seems easy to hit a triple-double, and it is rare not to get a triple-double.
When there are more and more triple-double data and more and more common, it seems that the gold content of the triple-double is not so sufficient.
But now, it will still shock many people.
When Ye Hao played like this, the Cavaliers seemed to have little hope of winning.
In the end, they lost the second game by 94 to 103, 9 points.
In addition to scoring 26 points, James also scored 6 rebounds and 4 assists, which is also a comprehensive performance.
It's just that when compared with Ye Hao, he is really inferior.
Many people are now saying that currently no one in the league can trade for Ye Hao alone, even if the Cavaliers get Warcraft Howard, and then pack Howard and James to make a deal with the Thunder in exchange for Ye Hao alone.
Probably can't be replaced.
At present, the best small forward player in the league and the strongest center player are together, and Ye Hao can't be exchanged alone?
It is estimated that there are many people who don't believe it, but the fact is that it is like this, but it cannot be exchanged.
Someone once threw this question to Presti, asking him if he would be willing to make a deal with the Thunder if the Cavaliers were willing to do this.
Presti just shook his head with a smile and replied, he is not so stupid as an idiot. If you can have a player like Ye Hao on the team, the best way is to meet all his requirements and let him Be happy, just wait for him to lead the team to win the championship.
The person asked, the best small forward in the league plus the best center in the league can't be replaced by a player who may be the best shooting guard in the league?
Presti continued to shake his head and firmly said, no change, because Ye Hao may grow into the greatest player in the history of the league.
After that, Presti smiled slyly and said, if we have Ye Hao on the team alone, we can lead the team to win the championship, why should I need two people?
His implication is that what can be done by one person does not require two people at all.
This is the most in line with his idea of saving costs for the boss.
Perhaps if this issue is put in front of the general managers of other teams, it means that they agree to change.
But in Presti's view, within the salary range set by the league, he would rather give Ye Hao more salary, let him lead the team alone and win the championship, regardless of Ye Hao's salary alone No matter how tall it is, it won't be taller than James and Howard combined.
So here is a smart account.
The Thunder's winning streak at home pushed the Cavaliers into a corner.
In the third game, as long as they lose again, then their trip to the finals is likely to be here for real.
In the history of the league, there has never been a team that was behind 0 to 3 in the playoffs and won the series against the sky.
Let alone the finals, there was none at all.
So this situation makes James a little anxious.
His good brother Wade comforted him and said: "I can understand your current mood, but I can tell you from the experience of those who have been there that this is not a desperate situation.
Even in a desperate situation, there is still a chance to reverse it.
When we played the finals against the Mavericks, we also lost the first two games.
But it was also the loss in the first two games that pushed us to a desperate situation. Only then did we have an absolute counterattack in the next four games, win four games in a row, and win the championship.
Let me tell you, the feeling of counterattacking to win and finally winning the championship is really cool.
This is definitely much better and more enjoyable than the experience of winning the championship smoothly from the very beginning.
Now that you have this opportunity to experience it, you should grasp it well.
I could do it back then, and I believe you can too! "
James looked up at Wade, sighed and said, "Do you think I can really do it? Now I am not facing the Mavericks, but the Thunder team with Ye Hao.
If it were the Mavericks you faced back then, I would definitely be confident.
It's just that Ye Hao is standing opposite me now..."
Wade was taken aback by what James said, and he couldn't find anything to refute for a while.
Of course, he will not think what James said in terms of thinking that the gold content of the championship trophy he won is not high or belittle him.
But it does seem to make a lot of sense.
Wade thought for a while and said, "Ye Hao is indeed a tricky guy."
James sighed again and said: "It's not just difficult, I can't find any solution. It's too difficult. It feels like an unsolvable problem. I've been thinking about it, but I can't find the solution. Answer."
Paul then said: "No matter what, he is just a player. No matter how strong he is, there are still ways to beat him."
James said: "Then do you have a solution? If you have a solution, please tell me quickly." He looked at Paul while talking.
Paul shook his head helplessly.
James went on to say: "I feel that I am facing him now, and I am about to have a psychological shadow.
I told you, even if it is Jordan, even if it is facing Jordan, I will not be counseled at 01:30.
I have always been very confident in my own strength, and I think I can beat Jordan.
However, Ye Hao is different, this guy makes me feel a little scared.
I really hate this feeling, I don't know where it came from. "
Anthony reached out and patted James on the shoulder, "I can understand you, brother.
Because I also have such a feeling.
When I played against him in the Western Conference semifinals, he was indeed a terrible player.
If it wasn't like this, I probably wouldn't agree to play buddy basketball with you guys.
I think the lineup of our Nuggets is still good, and there should be hope of winning the championship.
Sadly, that hope has been dashed.
Disillusioned without a trace, after we were defeated by Ye Hao.
Anyway, I can't see this hope anymore. I don't know if people in our team can still see it. "
James nodded, "Forget it, don't think about it. Anyway, if you stretch out your head, you will also get a knife. You will know when you are on the court tomorrow night after the game."
……
The next night, Game [-] of the Finals.
Played at the Cavaliers' home court.
Everyone knows how important this game is to the Cavaliers.
Only by desperately winning can we retain a glimmer of life.
If they lose, they will basically miss this year's championship.
It is precisely because of this that many people are optimistic that the Cavaliers can win the game at home before the game.
Counterattacks from desperation are often relatively explosive.
This is how Kenny Smith sees it. He said that James will lead the Cavaliers to win this crucial game. It is impossible for the Cavaliers to lose three games in a row.
Barkley was a little hesitant. He believed that the Thunder still had the advantage, but the Cavaliers, who were in a desperate situation, were indeed likely to usher in an explosion and win in the end.
The game started, and the starting lineups of the two teams were still the same as in the second game, and no adjustments were made.
Mike Brown wants to make adjustments. He wants to arrange a player in the starting lineup who can kill Ye Hao and keep an eye on Ye Hao.
However, when he looked around the Cavaliers, he found that he couldn't find such a person at all.
What a disappointment.
Can only continue to use the original starting lineup.
The Cavaliers took the lead in attacking.
Mo Williams came up and attacked on his own, shooting from the outside and making three-pointers.
Hey, I hit it.
This seems to be a good start.
Director Zhang said: "From this goal, you can feel the sense of urgency of the Cavaliers."
Yang Yi said with a smile: "If you don't press it, you will be eliminated."
Looking back, Ye Hao controlled the ball, made a false pass, made a pass without looking behind his back, and gave it to Durant from the outside.
Durant tried a three-pointer and wanted to respond with a goal.
It's a pity that the iron was struck with a bang.
There was booing from the audience.
"Durant's shooting sucks, Durant's shooting sucks!"
"Give you a chance, you can't make any shots! You're going to lose this game, and we'll get you out of Cleveland in despair."
"That is, don't think that you can be arrogant after winning two games. We can win two games at home."
"No, we will win four games in a row and win the championship! You just wait and eat your farts."
……
James grabbed the backcourt rebound, and he directly dribbled the ball himself.
There were fans shouting James' name, and some waving promotional posters like "KING"...
If Ye Hao is the hero of Oklahoma City, then James is also for Cleveland.
The fans here really regard him as "KING".
Tony Allen pressed the defense all over the court.
James firmly controlled the ball, and the big Z raised it, wanting to make a cover for James.
Varejao followed.
James dribbled the ball around Big Z and broke through to the basket.
Ye Hao was blocked by Big Z's huge body.
At this time, a whistle sounded, the referee gave a foul, and James made an offensive foul!
It turned out that Varejao, his former loyal bodyguard, blocked his breakthrough route, and fell straight out when he bumped into it.
"FXXK!" James cursed.
In the past, Varejao and himself were on the same team. Whenever Varejao used this kind of acting to win fouls from opponents on the court, he felt secretly refreshed and encouraged Varejao's playing style. .
It's just that he didn't expect that today, he had a taste of it himself, and it really didn't feel good.
Wrong!
He obviously didn't hit Varejao very much, as long as Varejao's feet are steady, it is impossible for him to knock Varejao over with that force.
This guy is really disgusting, and he just fell down like this.
James chased the referee for an explanation.
It's just that the referee ignored him and didn't intend to change the sentence at all.
But James will still be sensible, and he won't be so angry that he loses his mind and scolds the referee for being a jerk.
That kind of behavior seemed stupid to him.It is impossible for him to do it.
The referee did not change the judgment, and the Thunder got the ball in exchange.
The Thunder attacked and Ye Hao took possession of the ball.
Mo Williams followed the defense all the way.
James double-teams from the side.
When Ye Hao waited for the two of them to attack, he quickly hit the ground and passed the ball to Durant.
This time Durant made it.
A long two-pointer.
Looking back, James used Tianlong's eight-step layup stunt, took the ball from beyond the three-point line, and rushed to the Thunder's basket to score a layup.
After scoring, he yelled at his jersey.
It seemed to be venting the unhappiness in his heart.
Ye Hao looked at James who slapped his chest and roared, and couldn't help flashing a word "orangutan" that Zhan Hei in his previous life scolded James, which really resembled it.
He smiled, but held back immediately.
After all, he wouldn't use such an insulting word to scold his opponent.
Ye Hao got the ball from the basket, and he took the ball all the way to the top of the front court, and made gestures to direct his teammates to move.
When his teammates were running, he suddenly started, swaying James, and moving James' center of gravity.
Following his quick turn with the ball, he directly passed James.
"Beautiful! This dribbling movement is really beautiful!" Director Zhang shouted.
Followed by Yang Yi shouted, "Good shot! After Ye Hao broke through and passed James, he made a pull-up jumper after an emergency stop, shot in front of the defense of West and Mo Williams, and made a steady hit. Two points."
James received the ball from the outside, but now Ye Hao was standing in front of him.
"Hey, LeBron, I don't want to prevent you from shooting. I ask you to shoot a three-pointer. Do you dare to shoot? This is a good opportunity to make a shot. You have to grab it!" Ye Hao said to James.
He did stay a step away, not very close to James.
James was already quite upset on the court, but being so stimulated by Ye Hao, he simply pulled up from the spot and shot a three-pointer.
However, just as he jumped up and took the shot, Ye Hao stepped forward, jumped up immediately, and slapped him.
With a slap, the basketball was sent flying.
Big hat!
"FXXK! Didn't you tell me to shoot the ball?"
"You can believe whatever you say, but now it's the finals!"
"Ding, madness value +1..."
