The Godfather of Basketball

Chapter 89: Disparity in strength

The Rockets snatched the Spurs for the seventh time. After 12 years, they re-entered the finals.

的 Their opponent is the Cleveland Cavaliers led by "Little Emperor" LeBron James.

Since the Cavaliers drafted James in 2003, they have been recruited year after year, and they have made a footstep every year, from the ninth in the east to the fifth in the east, and now the second in the east, reaching the finals.

"Little Emperor" hopes to usher in his first career trophy in the fourth year of his career.

Of course, this is just hope.

Just like the gap between the East and West in the regular season, and the attention received in the East and West playoffs, the world knows how big the gap between the Cavaliers and the Rockets is.

Leaving aside the coaches on both sides, but on paper strength.

Ilgoskas, known by some fans as a tall center with strength comparable to Yao Ming, but anyone who has seen the regular season knows that the two sides are not a player at all levels.

Drew Gooden, a tough forward, but tougher, Millsap is not bad. As for the scoring ability, even the first-year Millsap is much better than Gooden.

James, against Shane Battier, this is the Cavaliers' only matchup with an advantage, but James who has not developed the long-range shooting ability, to what extent can this advantage be exerted, maybe only know the game.

Larry Hughes, steals the king in 2005, defends for a while, has a good three-point ability, a standard 3D player, and is somewhat similar in function to Battier, but against McGrady, his disadvantage is better than Battier against James Big.

Daniel Gibson, James' "guard with a knife", this year's second round show has a place in the Cavaliers with stable shooting, but it is difficult to take advantage of Blake who likes confrontation.

As for the bench, Alexander Pavlovich, Anderson Varejao, Donyer Marshall, Damon Jones, this lineup, compared to the Rockets, is not cheap.

This is still the case without the head coach.

I moved Tang Tian, ​​who repeatedly created miracles, to compare it with the "bread" Mike Brown on the opposite side.

"Hey man, this is the finals for hanging kids!"

Barkley's ridicule on the TNT program is the most true portrayal of the two teams.

休息 After taking a break for almost a week, on June 9th, American time, the NBA Finals opened at the Toyota Center.

Before the match, the reporter interviewed the Cavaliers' core James.

记者 When the reporter asked about the prospect of the game, James was a little emotional.

"All of them think we have lost. All of them think that the Eastern team cannot win, but we can win. Look at it, we will win the game."

"Play at the normal rhythm. If you lose, it's mine." On the side of the court, in stark contrast to James' excited emotions, Tang Tian's expression was calm and calm.

As a translator, he knows that the most powerful finals in history is really a bit disparate.

The game started soon, and Ilgoskas got the opportunity to lead the Cavaliers.

James came to the frontcourt to receive the ball at the top of the circle.

As a well-known organization striker in the league, his ability is beyond doubt.

However, the Rockets are closely following the rest of the position, the Cavaliers ran more than half of the offensive time without chance.

James chose to eat Battier.

Shane Battier defended and retreated. When James reached the basket, the Rockets quickly defended and contracted.

James scored the ball outside Hughes.

"boom!"

Hughes missed three points.

The Rockets have the ball.

Yao Ming came to the frontcourt, and after an infinite air cut, the Cavaliers' defensive formation has almost collapsed.

"唰!"

McGrady's outside three-pointer steadily hit.

The cheering scene was astounding.

The Cavaliers' offense, James reorganized, this time he assigned to outside Gibson.

Gibson made another three-pointer.

"boom!"

I still don't enter.

Gibson's rookie game scored 11 three-pointers, shocked four, but unfortunately, this is the finals, the defense intensity has increased by at least three levels.

Both sides of you come and play with anxiety, but the difference has widened from the beginning.

After half a game, the Rockets have led by 66 to 51 with a full 15 points.

The Rockets played ... very easy to play.

After experiencing a **** battle with the Spurs, I played against the Cavaliers, just like a sauna, sweating and feeling comfortable.

Tangtian also sat on the bench all the way.

Beating this knight is actually really simple.

James basically has no long-range shots at this time, as long as the main defender kills the inside line.

As for the rest of the Cavaliers, seriously, he is tired for James.

I brought such a group of teammates to the finals, in the final analysis, it is absolutely affirmation of James' ability.

In the end, despite James vowing before the game, the Rockets still won the Cavaliers 101-89 and won the first victory in the finals.

"The Cavaliers played very hard." This is Tang Tian's evaluation of the Cavaliers after the game.

This is a very fair comment ~ www.novelmtl.com ~ Not only James in the game, other Cavaliers players also worked very hard.

But the game, the effort is based on talent, especially in the world's top league such as the NBA, hard work alone can not win the game.

103 to 91, the Rockets still easy to win in the second game.

98 to 91, returned to the Cavaliers home, the Cavaliers' players recovered, James scored 21 points, 13 rebounds and 11 assists in three double figures, the Cavaliers only lost the single-digit difference.

比 3-0, the Rockets easily lead the big score, the team is only one step away from the championship trophy.

The final game of the finals will continue in the Quick-Loan Arena.

Because it has already reached the match point, the championship may be born in this game. The official staff of the league appeared on the scene with the championship trophy and some necessary props.

This is a signal, but the feelings against the two sides are completely different.

The Rockets' players were looking forward to it, while the Cavaliers were uneasy.

"We don't care about anything else, the only thing we have to do tonight is to win this game. We must not let our opponents win the championship trophy at our home. If that is the case, it will be our eternal shame." James shouted at his teammates.

"Little Emperor" has his dignity.

The same is true for Cleveland fans. They are wearing red home team T-shirts and holding white handkerchiefs handed out on site. They are ready to go.

Cleveland is a small town, but the enthusiasm of the fans here is extremely hot. The atmosphere at home here is the first in the league. This year's playoffs are even more popular because of the team's outstanding results.

The Cavaliers have reached the moment of backwater war.
