Chapter 360
Chapter 359 Defeat James With James’ Method!
Quick Loan Center!
The first game of the Eastern Conference finals.
This is the first time the Cavaliers have reached the stage of the Eastern Conference finals since they selected James.
All Cleveland fans agree that this is not the end.
The Cavaliers can go further under the leadership of LeBron.
Finally, take the O’Brien Cup!
The confrontation between the Chosen Son and Gu Yu naturally does not lack attention.
Barkley and Smith took the trouble to come to Cleveland to explain the scene.
“Charles, although I’ve asked a similar question many times, I’m still going to ask it today, which team do you think will win the Eastern Conference Finals?
“Cleveland Cavaliers!”
Without any hesitation, Barkley gave his answer directly.
“Charles, am I right? Do you really think LeBron can get over the Celtics mountain?”
“Of course! This year’s LeBron is no longer the LeBron of the past, and winning the regular season MVP is the best proof!”
“In the past two years, the Celtics have fallen in the Eastern Conference Finals, and this year I believe that LeBron will pass the Celtics and reach the finals!”
“Charles, I don’t think the Cavaliers can beat the Celtics, they simply don’t have the strength of a championship!”
Smith countered Barkley’s argument.
While the two were still arguing about which team could advance, players from both sides on the court had already started to warm up.
Among the Cavaliers, such as West, also know Gu Yu and others, and even won the championship together.
But in the pre-war depressed atmosphere, the two sides did not start to greet each other.
James stared at Gu Yu who was warming up, his fists clenched involuntarily.
He’s going to beat Gu Yu!
The warm-up is over soon and the game is about to begin.
The Celtics’ starting lineup: center Perkins, power forward Aldridge, small forward Pierce, shooting guard Junzi Lei, point guard Gu Yu.
Cavaliers’ starting lineup: center Shark, power forward Antoine Jamison, small forward James, shooting guard Anthony Parker, point guard Mo Buchuan.
beep!
With the referee’s whistle sounded, the shark jumped the ball successfully, and the game officially started.
Mo Bu passed the dribble after half court and gave the ball directly to James.
James received the ball at the top of the arc and was ready to attack.
Pierce saw James catch the ball and took a step back, indicating that James could make a three-pointer.
James hesitated, choosing to bet on the opening touch.
……
“LeBron missed a three-pointer, obviously LeBron’s touch was off the line at the start of today! Barkley’s voice sounded.
on the field.
Perkins stuck the shark, Aldridge grabbed the rebound, and the Celtics started to fight back.
Gu Yu held the ball at the top of the arc and faced the defense of Antoine Jamison, and directly chose to break through.
Antoine Jamison’s defensive WS is 1.4 this season.
What is this defense like?
Korver, who has always been considered a defensive colander, has 1 WS on the defensive end this season.
Facing the defense of Antoine Jamison, Gu Yu directly chose to tank to break through.
bump!
With the sound of muscles colliding, Antoine Jamison only felt a huge force coming from his chest, and his body involuntarily retreated.
Gu Yu took the opportunity to break through successfully.
Just reached the free throw line, James’ help defense has arrived.
Without any hesitation, Gu Yu chose to pass the ball directly.
Pierce, who is 45 on the flank, received the ball and shot a three-pointer directly from the big gap.
Swish!
The basketball hollowed into the net, and Gu Yu assisted Pierce to score the first goal of the game.
Looking at Gu Yu in front of him, James’ face suddenly darkened.
James’s face was black not because of Pierce’s goal, but because of Gu Yu’s attacking style.
Break the ball!
Gu Yu’s offense and defense just now is exactly what James is best at breaking the ball.
At the home of the Cavaliers, using the scoring method that the Cavaliers are best at, assisting teammates to score the first goal of the game.
This…
Not to mention that James couldn’t hang on his face, it was Barkley, who was commenting on the scene, who was watching a good show at this time.
“Faced with the Celtics’ provocation, I believe LeBron will give his own response! 95
James did want to respond to the Celtics, but…
Reality doesn’t allow it!
Looking at Gu Yu, who took another step and took a joint defense position, ready to help defend at any time.
James struggled again, how to start the offense.
In James’ career, especially in the Cavaliers 1.0 period, the biggest problem, in addition to shooting, is technical flaws.
As I said before, James is actually a typical guard.
But James’ pull-up jumper is not good, resulting in his weak singles ability.
This is why, he needs a second-in-command who can hold the ball, such as Wade, Irving and Brother Nongmei to win the championship.
The Celtics’ tactic is also obvious, which is to force James to switch from the state of breaking the ball and connecting the team to the mode of individual singles.
James is also very clear, the Celtics’ strategic intentions.
But due to technical flaws, even knowing that the Celtics had set up a trap, he had to charge with a pack of explosives!
bump!
With the sound of muscle collision, James and Pierce collided together.
James continued to accelerate, trying to get rid of Pierce.
At this time, Gu Yu’s defense has arrived.
bump!
James makes a ground pass to Antoine Jamison who has been blown open.
After Antoine Jamison received the ball, he made a decisive three-pointer.
Boom!
Not surprisingly, Antoine Jamison struck a three-pointer.
Antoine Jamison only appeared in 66 games this season. Due to the impact of injuries, the three-point shooting rate is the lowest in the playoffs, whether it is this or the original history.
In the original history, Antoine Jamison made 25.6% of his three-pointers in the playoffs.
It can be said that Antoine Jamison had a lot of credit when the Celtics were able to eliminate the Cavaliers.
That’s the hit rate…
Gu Yu isn’t blowing either, can Antoine Jamison shoot whatever he wants, can he kill the game?
Radmanovic, the Cavaliers’ most accurate No. 4, was sent to the Knicks because of the Sharks trade.
The Cavaliers are now at No. 4, and Antoine Jamison is the one with the most accurate three-pointers.
Before the game, Pierce said that he wanted to let James know what cruelty is, which is really not bragging.
After all, Antoine Jamison at No. 4 is so pitiful.
Isn’t that telling the Celtics that Gu Yu can double-team James?
James is just as strong.
How many points can you get in the face of Gu Yu and Pierce’s double-team?
So, James, who was on the stage of the Eastern Conference finals for the first time, was hammered to the ground by the Celtics at home for the whole game.
In the fourth quarter of the game, the score gap widened.
At the end of the game with 5 minutes and 14 seconds remaining, Cavaliers coach Mike Brown had to replace the main force and admit defeat.
The camera at the scene was also given to James.
James sat on the bench, watching the big score on the court.
There is unwillingness, loss, and powerlessness in his eyes…
hum!
The Celtics defeated the Cavaliers 105:80 as the timer came to the end.
Under the double teams of Gu Yu and Pierce, James made 5 of 16 shots, 0 of 3 of 633 three-pointers, 3 of 6 free throws, scored 13 points, 5 assists, 6 rebounds and 5 turnovers.
On the stage of the Eastern Conference Finals for the first time, James’ performance can only be described by pulling the stride.
After the game, Smith also made fun of Barkley.
“Charles, the game is over, do you still think the Cavaliers can beat the Celtics?
“The big score in this game is enough to say that LeBron and his Cavaliers are too young to beat the Celtics today.
“The regular season is the regular season after all, they can’t go further!”
Barkley’s face was also very ugly at this time.
After all, he also blew a wave of Cavaliers and James before the game started, and then was bloodbathed for 25 points.
This f*ck…
“Although LeBron’s performance in this game is indeed not good, considering that this is the first time LeBron has set foot on the stage of the Eastern Conference Finals.
“As a superstar, I’m sure LeBron will adjust right away!
“Winning or losing a game doesn’t mean much.”
“Michael once beat the Jazz by 42 points in the Finals, but he was still dragged into Game 6 by the Jazz, and if it wasn’t for that steal, Michael would have played in a tiebreaker!
Barkley was talking about Game 3 of the ’98 Finals.
In that game, the Bulls blew the Jazz 96:54.
But losing a game doesn’t mean much.
In the sixth game, the two sides were entangled to the last minute, if it wasn’t for Joe’s gang leader to hit the last key shot.
The ending of the series could be completely different.
Therefore, the outcome of a game, just looking at the difference, really doesn’t mean much.
“The Cavaliers will adjust soon, and I still believe that the Cavaliers can reach the finals!
……
The Cavaliers lost again.
This loss is not the same as the last time.
