minutes, contributing 4 points, 2 rebounds and 1 assist...
Other teammates are also enjoying the cheers and support of the fans at the scene.
As soon as the game ended, the fans got into a quarrel on the forum after the game.
"What a shame, LeBron played so well and the Cavaliers almost won
"Upstairs, I seriously doubt that you are Durant's trumpet."
"Bah, as a four-time scoring champion, KD doesn't bother to use such a method! KD has always been straight-tempered."
"When you say that, I become more and more suspicious."
"..."
"Don't be crazy, let me tell you how this game makes me feel. Wang Zelin is the real Dior."
"That's right, that's 40-20 in the finals! I've only seen this kind of crazy data from the Sharks!"
"I also agree that if the Trail Blazers successfully defend their title, then LeBron should step aside this season and the league will change its dynasty!"
"So, from now on, the alliance will be dominated by insiders again!"
"Blind guess that the Cavaliers will get back 10% at the end of the game and tie the game 1:1!"
"Actually, the guy who was suspected of being Durant's trumpet was right. After all, LeBron scored the highest 44 points tonight. If he feels better and hits a few more three-pointers, maybe the Cavaliers will win.
!”
"Come on, brothers, I found Durant's trumpet again!"
"..."
"You all guessed 1:1, then I will guess 2:0. Anyway, there is no loss if I lose."
"2:0 is unlikely. From tonight's game, we can see that the two teams are relatively close in strength. I believe that James and Irving will find their shooting skills sooner or later."
"Then what if we can't find it back?"
"Nothing goes wrong, they are superstars!"
…
"Wang's performance tonight is the only one I have ever seen in my life. He is the best insider I know! To put it bluntly, I think he is already the best player in the league! No one!"
At the press conference, Coach Terry was crazy about Wang Zhilin.
"We couldn't have won the game tonight without Wang. If we could, I hope he can do this every night."
"40 20! This is fucking crazy! God is playing in No. 36 tonight!"
Lillard and Aldridge also had a blast.
The atmosphere at the Trail Blazers' post-game press conference was quite relaxed.
It took a full hour for the press conference to end.
Wang Zelin, who won the finals and got super statistics, returned to the locker room after finishing the interview, showered and leaned against the wall, with scenes that happened in the game constantly replaying in his mind.
He steamed in the sauna for a while in disguise. Under the supervision of the coaching staff, he had no chance to practice more, so he went home with Jenna in his arms and had a good sleep.
at the same time.
Echeng Tieling.
In a certain luxurious villa, Durant was writing comments on his newly purchased mobile phone.
He was unlucky to be injured this year. Once he recovers from his injury, he and his second brother will lead the Thunder to make a comeback next year.
People like this are discussing the Finals G1 between the Trail Blazers and the Cavaliers. A somewhat unhappy Durant commented: "LeBron and Wang Zelin are nothing. Let's see how Durant returns as the king next season and beats them!"
Soon, some fans replied: "Durant? That thousand-year-old guy? That's ridiculous. Could it be that you are the real Durant?"
When Durant saw it, his lungs almost exploded with anger, and he immediately activated the one-finger Zen magic:
"I'm a Durant fan! Do you know basketball? Durant's shooting point is so high that no one in the league can guard him! He is recognized as a super scorer, do you understand?"
"Hahaha, you laughed me to death! If you want to say that Kobe is a super player, I will admit it. After all, he has won a championship and was the number one player in the league. Forget it about Durant. How can he be considered a super player?
’?”
"Yeah, I've never heard of a super scorer who hasn't won a championship!"
"I would like to remind everyone that Durant is no longer the second best player in the league! To be precise, no matter what, neither LeBron nor the King will be among the top two players. He should be the third best player in the league."
"Well, from what you said, this is indeed the truth."
"Ha ha ha ha!"
After reading the netizen's message, Durant was so angry that he slammed his phone to the ground.
With a "pop" sound, another iPhone 6 was destroyed by Du·Phone Terminator·Lante himself.
Just wait!
Next season, let’s see how I conquer the league in The Return of the King!
Durant's murderous intention was clear. This summer, he decided to set the alarm clock for four in the morning.
Every day that follows, he will embrace Tieling at four in the morning!
…
After two days of rest, the fans have not stopped talking about the second game of the finals in Portland.
It is worth mentioning that the Cavaliers' training sessions have been closed these two days.
Obviously, losing the first game put a lot of pressure on the entire Cavaliers team.
If they lose the second game, even if they return to Cleveland at home, the Cavaliers, who are 0:2 behind, don't think they have much hope of making a comeback.
After all, their opponent, the Trail Blazers, is the defending champion!
The moment G2 opened, global ratings exceeded last year's peak.
Part of this was stimulated by the fact that the two giants in G1 scored 40 points together, but more of it showed that the fans liked the high-confrontation and highly observational game in front of them.
After the pre-match ceremony began, the results of both sides were released one after another.
The Trail Blazers still have the standard starting five, Lillard, Matthews, Batum, Aldridge, and Wang Zelin.
The Cavaliers have made a small change, Irving, Shumpert, James, TT and... Mozgov!
Cousins was demoted to the second unit?
But if you think about it carefully, Cousins did have a strong presence in the second team in the last game, and it is not an exaggeration to say that it was overwhelming.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Cavaliers coach Blatt arranged it this way, and no one can find anything wrong with it.
However, once the game started, Blatter paid for his "smart" arrangement.
Amid the cheers of the fans, Wang Zelin moved the ball from Mozgov's head back to the Trail Blazers half.
As soon as they came up, the Trail Blazers focused on Wang Zelin, and Lillard decisively lobbed the ball in.
Cousins changed his position to play the sixth man, and the Cavaliers' inside strength suddenly dropped by more than one level.
This is not about defense. Mozgov's defensive effect on Wang Zelin is actually not necessarily worse than Cousins, and may even be better.
But the problem is that his offensive ability is at least two levels lower than Cousins.
Especially in ultra-high-standard games like the Finals, compared to the offensive stability of role players, it is no exaggeration to say that they are not on the same level at all.
When Cousins and Wang Zelin faced off, no matter how low Cousins' offensive efficiency was, even if he scored 0 points, Wang Zelin did not dare to relax his guard on Cousins.
Who dares to bet that a star can stay strong all night?
But now it's Mozgov, who averages single-digit points per game. This guy knows two tricks on the offensive end, low-post hook shots and downward finishing. He has no offensive threat at all outside the triangle.
Against such a small role, Wang Zelin is fully capable of stepping aside and focusing more on helping to defend Irving and James.
In this way, while Wang Zelin was overwhelming, he could still maintain high-intensity crazy defense and help, and blocked 3 shots in a single quarter.
At the end of the first quarter, the Trail Blazers led the Cavaliers by 13 points, 30:17.
At this time, Blatter was not too anxious and still felt quite secure on the Diaoyutai.
Because in his expectation, Cousins will definitely be able to lead the Cavaliers to quickly chase points during the next rotation. Even with Cousins' ability, it is not impossible to help the Cavaliers overtake the score with his personal ability during the temporary break of the main players of both sides.
As a result, the Trail Blazers also made a strange move.
Coach Terry sent the old wolf king Garnett to have a direct confrontation with Cousins. To be precise, he wanted Garnett to greet Cousins cordially, so that Cousins would be so moved that he no longer wanted to play.
The country is easy to change, but the nature is hard to change!
Even after coming to a good team and developing good playing habits, Cousins' bad temper is still there.
When he faced the historical trash-talking master Garnett, his explosive personality not only hurt himself, but also hurt the entire Cavaliers team.
He received three fouls in less than 6 minutes of playing. The entire Cavaliers coaching staff was dumbfounded.
In the end, the much-anticipated Cousins returned to the bench with dazzling statistics of 2 points, 1 rebound, 2 fouls and 3 turnovers.
Of course, the bigger problem is that Blatt overestimated Mozgov's defensive ability and underestimated Cousins' role on the court.
In other words, as a rookie coach, he thought of the finals too simply.
Facts have proved that a player's role on the field can never be reflected by simple data.
There were also only two points scored. With Cousins and Mozgov on the court, the effect was completely different.
No matter how strong Cousins is, as long as he is still on the court, no one in the Trail Blazers will dare to let him go. This is the deterrent power of an inside killer who averages 22 points per game in the playoffs!
And this is exactly what Mozgov does not have.
Although James and Irving stood up at the critical moment to hold on to the score and prevent the Trail Blazers from widening the point difference to more than 20 points, one step was wrong and the next step was wrong.
After halftime, when Blatt came to his senses and put Cousins back into the main lineup, Cousins, who was troubled by fouls and had a somewhat explosive mentality at the time, was completely unable to perform at the level he should have.
Less than two minutes into the final quarter, he received his sixth foul of the game, officially declaring that the Cavaliers were finished inside.
In the end, relying on the double-digit advantage established in the first quarter, the Trail Blazers chose to play steadily, maintaining an advantage of about 10 points and overpowering the Cavaliers for the entire game.
At 109:97, the Trail Blazers withstood the Cavaliers' counterattack in the key ball competition in the final quarter and won another game with a 14-point advantage.
After winning this game, beyond everyone's expectations, the Trail Blazers defended two home games and rewritten the score to 2:0!
Suddenly, the trend in the forum changed dramatically.
"Trail Blazers Championship!"
"Wang Zelin fmvp!"
"On behalf of all Trail Blazers fans, I would like to thank the smart Blatt. I would like to call you the best sixth man in this game!"
"You actually dare to pit a nobody against the king. Is this really something that a coach of a division championship team can do? I don't understand!"
"Blatter is a der, and my grandma can win the Eastern Conference championship with LeBron!"
"Upstairs, you and O'Neill have the same grandmother?"
"Tsk, tsk, the Son of Akron is going to lose to the same person again!"
