The Godfather of Basketball

Chapter 703 Cleveland's Fourth Crown (1/4!)

Tang Tian's interview aroused heated discussions among the fans.

"As a fan of Irving, I feel I've been offended. Kyrie is one of the best point guards out there, and he deserves enough respect."

"Come on buddy, Irving is outstanding, but he is not on the same level as LeBron. Although Tang Tian's words are not very nice, he is telling the truth."

"That is, Irving has never proven his ability to lead a team. Whether in the Clippers or the Cavaliers, he is an auxiliary player."

"Although I also recognize Irving's strength, his function in the Cavaliers is indeed role-oriented. He is a single player who shares the pressure for LeBron."

...

Most of the fans supported Tang Tian's point of view, and the voices of a few Irving fans were basically drowned out.

The fan's heated discussion also attracted some media reports, and even during the pre-match interview, a reporter from FOX Sports asked Irving similar questions.

"Is this LeBron's team?"

Owen was stunned for a while when he heard this question, and finally said with a smile: "We are a team."

He had a smile on his face when he spoke, but there was still a trace of not-so-happy expression between his brows.

Thirty-six strategies, attacking the heart is the top priority.

What Tang Tian said during the interview had some impact on the Cavaliers.

After two days of rest, the first game of the two teams officially started at Quicken Loans Arena.

The Nets put their all into it at the beginning, but they didn't have much to do with James. Whether it was Butler or Yi Jianlian, they were at an absolute disadvantage in matchups, and Blatter's scheduling was also very good.

The current James is at the peak, even stronger than the same period in his previous life, and he is really unstoppable.

103 to 91, the Cavaliers beat the Nets in the first game and made a good start to the series.

James scored 35 points, 8 rebounds and 6 assists, Love 22 points, Irving 17 points and 6 assists.

The result of this game gave Cleveland fans a burst of excitement.

After the match, Tang Tian summarized some details of the match and made some adjustments to the tactics.

The second battle between the two sides continued at Quicken Loans Arena.

The Nets double-teamed James, and Irving got a lot of scoring opportunities.

However, the Nets have made significant progress in details compared with the first game, and the point difference between the two sides has always fluctuated in single digits.

But James' strength was too buggy, and after being trained by Tang Tian, ​​he was almost incomprehensible. His several strong attacks at critical moments were unstoppable.

In the end, the Cavaliers won the game 96-92 without any risk, taking a 2-0 lead by a big score.

James scored a triple-double of 25 points, 11 rebounds and 10 assists. Irving scored a Cavaliers-high 30 points. Love and Smith scored 16 points each.

After two games, the result was as expected by most fans. The Nets did well enough, but they still couldn't win the game.

The score of 2 to 0 also shows the gap in the overall strength of the two teams.

At the same time in the West, the first game between the Thunder and the Warriors has also been played.

Although Curry returned from injury, his state has declined a lot compared to before the injury, and without the magical Curry, the Warriors' offensive firepower is greatly reduced.

108 to 102, the Thunder also won the first game of the series.

"Cleveland can celebrate their fourth title."

After these three games, Barkley's big mouth mode started again.

This time, though, they believed what Barkley said, as much as they believed the uncharacteristically ESPN.

The Cavaliers look unstoppable, and the Warriors who injured Curry and the Thunder, who have only the second youngest, are not their opponents. Perhaps the discussion now should not be whether Cleveland can usher in a fourth championship, but whether the Cavaliers will Will sweep the championship.

After the two games, the two sides will move to Brooklyn for the next two games. Before that, they have three days of rest.

Behind 0 to 2, the Nets still suffered some blows in morale.

But Tang Tian didn't change his tactics and rotation.

In the previous life, Casey led the Raptors to play against the Cavaliers, and kept adjusting the lineup, but he confused himself first.

Although the Nets are behind by a big score, after the details of the last game are done, they have the opportunity to play a key ball with the Cavaliers.

Back at home, young players will perform better, and the Nets and Cavaliers have even more than a 50-50 chance of winning.

During the training session, Tang Tian poured chicken soup intermittently to the players, bit by bit reawakening the fighting spirit of the team.

During this period, the second game between the Thunder and the Warriors also ended.

The Warriors adjusted their thinking starting from defense. They limited the Thunder's scoring to 91 points, used defense to drive offense, and beat their opponents 118-91, tying the series to 1-1.

This game also became the material of Tang Tian Chicken Soup.

"What we lost was just two insignificant games. Now is our chance to defend the home court and reverse the decline. With more investment and higher intensity of defense, we will equalize the big score."

The morale of the Nets has been slowly recovering, and this wave of timely rain from the Warriors has restored their confidence to the best state.

The Eastern Conference Finals series is about to start, and fans are also refocusing on Brooklyn.

Fans in New York cheered for the Nets on social media, and the heat of action on the streets of Brooklyn reached a peak.

On the last training day before the game, after Tang Tian led the training, he was interviewed by media reporters as usual.

"Is the team ready? Will we see a victory tonight?" the reporter asked.

"Yes, of course." Tang Tian was very confident this time.

Tang Tian's self-confidence surprised the reporter. You must know that Tang Tian usually behaved relatively low-key before the game, and would not milk himself.

"Has the team found a new way to win?" The reporter couldn't help asking.

"Didn't we already find it in the last game?" Tang Tian asked back.

The reporter looked puzzled.

"We successfully limited LeBron's performance in the last game." Tang Tian said.

"But Irving scored 30 points." The reporter reminded that limiting James' scoring does not mean limiting James.

"That's not important, Irving or anyone else is not important, LeBron is the key, you also saw the result of the last game, we almost won the game." Tang Tian continued.

The reporter froze for a moment after hearing this, and couldn't find any words to refute.

The last game the Nets played was indeed better than the first game. Although Irving scored more points, the effect was significantly worse than that of James.

The third game of the series is about to start, and the words Tang Tian said in the interview once again attracted heated discussions among fans.

They felt that Tang Tian was prejudiced against Irving. It seemed that in his eyes, only James was the only problem the Nets had to face.
