The problems on the defensive end cannot be solved, and the Cavaliers are not much better on the offensive end.
Although the Cavaliers replaced two pitchers, the Warriors' defensive strategy remained unchanged.
Azubuike shrank two steps inside the three-point line without even extending his hand!
I just let you shoot three-pointers!
The only change was Belinelli, who no longer retreated but followed Gibson.
Gibson's three-point shooting is still reliable, and it can't be as good as his defense against West.
On the offensive end, James became increasingly hesitant.
To invest or not to invest?
This is a problem……
The main reason why Deng Fang dared to do this was that he was very sure that James already had a lot on his mind at this time.
Although James still looks very brave, he is actually no longer interested in fighting.
Trailing 0:3, and now trailing by more than 20 points, there is no suspense in this series!
No matter how hard you work, it's just one or two more games.
I have no chance of winning the championship this year.
There is no way to win a championship with these trash teammates!
There is no future in staying with the Cavaliers.
Where am I going this summer?
Where do I take my talents?
Where can I win the championship?
Where are the legs to hug?
How would Cavaliers fans view me if I left?
What will it be like playing in this arena next time?
Why is my luck so bad? Why is my opponent in the finals the Warriors?
Is it possible that I really have to go to the Warriors to win the championship?
James is a very shrewd person, and it is impossible not to be careful in this situation.
On the same team, role players and team leaders may both play seriously, but their thoughts are different.
For many role players, they will still play well even if they are fighting with their backs against a cliff.
It's better if you win the series, but it has little to do with you if you lose.
Your own money is the most important thing.
The better you perform in the playoffs, the greater your contribution to the team, the further the team goes, and the bigger the contract you can get in the future!
Winning or losing the series is secondary.
The most important thing for many role players is playing time.
Only if you get enough playing time can you get good data, and the next contract will be more generous.
As for the honor after the team wins, that is all the business of the team boss, not the role players!
So regardless of winning or losing, role players will often still play hard.
But it's different for a top five superstar in the league.
What role players want is more playing time and better statistics.
For the super giants, playing time is not a problem, and data is not too difficult either.
Every super giant is a rare item in this league. They have absolute say and absolute right to the ball in the team, and they have unlimited firing rights. As long as he wants to play, the head coach will not dare to object even if he plays the whole game.
Similarly, being able to make a name for yourself in the league and become a superstar means that you can get the maximum salary wherever you go.
Not only the maximum salary, but also the right to choose the team.
As long as you want to go, no team is not welcome!
No one thinks they have too much money, and no team thinks they are too strong!
In other words, it is entirely up to each super giant to decide where he wants to go.
It is for this reason that once the situation goes bad, quick-thinking stars will lose their fighting spirit and want to quit.
Role players may not even get a contract if they don't work hard, but stars have many paths to take.
Since this road is not easy to walk, I will try another one!
Why hang yourself from a tree?
That road looks broader and easier to walk!
Now that I have to leave, why are I still running on this road with no future?
In short, Chaoju has a way out and has more choices.
Therefore, when encountering difficulties, the quality of a team leader is most tested!
The boss of the team is determined, would rather bend than bend, and fight to the end no matter what, then the younger brother will have more desire to fight.
The team boss is hesitant and never gives the team accurate words. No one knows what the boss really thinks and whether he will be on the team next season. Why should the younger guys work hard?
It is necessary to go out and play well, but that is for your own data and for your next contract!
Once your opponent fights for your life and fights you without fear of death, you will feel guilty!
Play well to make money!
If you work so hard with them, once you get injured, there will be no money left!
Therefore, it is said that a thousand troops are easy to obtain, but a general is difficult to find!
James is in a trance now.
We must fight, and as the boss of a team, we cannot bow our heads and admit defeat no matter what.
But is it necessary to work hard?
My teammates are so rubbish, there is no point in trying my best!
I have to leave, so why bother?
Forget it, let's just shoot two three-pointers.
Rush in?
What to do if you get injured?
People who have a way out and people who have no way out think differently!
James wants to leave for more than a day or two!
There is no future in staying with the Cavaliers!
In this case, then I'm leaving!
Of course, it would also be nice to stay with the Cavaliers and win a championship.
But judging from the current situation, it is completely impossible...
No matter who you are, you can't play well when you have a lot of thoughts in your head.
James threw five more three-pointers, but only made one!
It was difficult for the Cavaliers to score, but the Warriors took advantage of the victory to pursue another wave of 15:5, and the point difference reached 30 points!
Soon, the second quarter ended, and the score between the two teams became 88:58!
The Cavaliers trailed by 30 points!
This is the finals!
Trailing by 30 points at halftime!
The second half of the game will not be all garbage time...
Looking at the score on the big screen, commentator Reggie Miller sighed: "Oh my God! This is the most boring finals I have ever seen! No one!"
Barkley also nodded and said: "That's right! The Cavaliers are not at the same level as the Warriors! This is not a game, this is a killing! I'm starting to feel sorry for the Cavaliers!"
"Logically speaking, it shouldn't be!" Reggie Miller said: "The Cavaliers have James, who is the best in the league!"
"You're talking about the past!" Barkley said: "The number one player in the league now is Curry! The dynasty has changed!"
"But I still think James is better." Reggie Miller said: "Curry's physical fitness is too different!"
"Awesome? How can an awesome team lead a team to lose? Still trailing by 30 points at halftime? How can an awesome team be swept out?" Barkley said: "I have never seen any league leader lead a team to achieve such results!"
"You are right." Reggie Miller said: "I have never seen the league's number one player in such a miserable state."
"Forget it, let's talk about what to do in the second half of the game?" Barkley said with a smile...
