Netizens are quite active online, and some people started making up jokes:
KING: It's time to win this game!
Tyrant: Have you asked me?
KING: I am super addicted this year!
Tyrant: Have you asked me?
KING: Fxx!!! Labor and management must win with 50 points!!!
Tyrant: Have you asked me?
Suddenly this format began to be reposted crazily at night. It was really tragic that James lost this game. Inside and outside, everyone began to think that his last hope was gone. They all thought that this series was already the same as before.
Same, no more suspense. When James heard this, he naturally couldn't be so discouraged and shouted directly:
We still have a chance! We only led by 11 points at the end! The Lakers are not difficult to beat!!!
Netizens began to help the Lakers "make outrageous comments":
Yes, we led by 11 points, but we still lost in the end.
The Lakers are not unbeatable, but you haven't won yet.
KING is a little delirious after losing! In fact, he has never defeated the Tyrants since he returned to the Cavaliers in the 2014-2015 season. When was the last time he won? Oh, that was when he was with the Heat.
Yes, the Lakers at that time were still Kobe's team. The Tyrant was just the second or third boss.
Does that mean LeBron can’t win against a tyrant who has become the boss?
Yes, bro, as of now, that's it.
Of course the most outrageous thing is...
In the words of T.N.T’s famous columnist and senior commentator Kate Marin, that’s his latest column, called:
The countdown to the Kings departure? Is it inevitable that LeBron James will leave the team?
In this article, he talked about why No. 23 of the Cavaliers left in a simple and in-depth manner. The first is that the Cavaliers' salary space has been completely locked up by his so-called "brothers' contract". Don't look at Irving now leaving, in fact
It is still a super high salary value. Specifically, it is 137.87 million U.S. dollars. What is the concept? This season's Yongsheng only has 135 million U.S. dollars. The Rockets have less than 120 million U.S. dollars. The Los Angeles Lakers only have 128 million U.S. dollars. But there are a lot of injuries.
Illness, the advantages of their lineup have not been used at all. So from this point of view, the Cavaliers have left Irving, but they still have the league's largest total salary. In this way, it is impossible to make reinforcements in the future. If James stays, he will waste his last
Time. According to the Cavaliers' No. 23's own personality and career plan, he must leave. The second is that he is still on the tail end of his peak, and there is no time to waste. The Cavaliers cannot win the championship, and he needs to go to a team that can win the championship.
, in order to improve or consolidate his historical status. The third point is that if he wants to defeat No. 29 of the Lakers, he must leave the team. Otherwise, he has not led the team to win since the tyrant became the boss, and the finals have been consecutive.
He lost a game, and even lost a game in the regular season, which was extremely detrimental to his second place in history. He was so scorned by his contemporaries, and he has never even dominated a named opponent in his career, ranking second like this.
, tell me how you can be convinced by those who scorn him? The fourth thing is... James's business territory needs to be expanded, and he needs to plan for his life after retirement, so Cleveland is definitely not suitable to keep.
Based on these four points, the possibility of him staying with the Cavaliers is very, very small. Of course, if he can stay, then I really have to admire him. As soon as this article came out, it was naturally criticized by Fox, a die-hard fan of James.
The famous host Nick Wright criticized and ridiculed: LeBron has already said that he wants to end his career with the Cavaliers.
As soon as these words came out, they received support from many James fans.
But Kate Marling was quick to respond on Twitter:
There are so many things that KING has failed to fulfill, and one more thing will not matter. Didn’t he say that he would not leave back then? But when it was time to leave, didn’t he just leave decisively? And, look at his answer, he was talking about himself
I want to end my career with the Cavaliers. What does "want" mean? Not necessarily? Right? So there is still a lot of room for variation in this statement.
Naturally, his words were supported by many fans who didn’t like James. Some people left a lot of comments on the Internet:
Some James fans told me that 50+ triple-doubles are unparalleled in the world. What else do you want from him? What else can he do? My answer is that there is nothing he can do but leave.
I am a Green Army fan and I support him. KING is leaving.
I'm a Pacers fan, and I don't think it's strange to leave. This place really can't give him what he wants.
I am a Warriors fan, and I want to say... I must leave. Why not come to our Warriors team? We...
Get lost!!! You still think you are not strong enough??? You should just form an all-star lineup!!!
LeBron and dogs can't defeat the tyrants.
…
Seeing this, Tang Qian just felt a little sick in his stomach. Of course he was smiling. He felt that the current netizens were really talented. When they complained, it was called a person who spared no effort. Of course, the target of this complaint should not be himself. Tang Qian
When Qian was interviewed, he expressed his views on James' remarks. He was very simple and always direct:
They'd better find a way to beat us first and then talk about it.
As soon as these words came out, the Internet burst into laughter, and it can be said that every word hurts my heart. James was so angry that he wanted to shave his hairline a little higher. It was... so fucked!!! Am I really
Can't I beat them? No!!! I have to try!!!
On June 3rd, US time, at the Staples Center in Los Angeles, G2 of the 17-18 season finals began.
When Tang Qian saw James with a dark face, he just wanted to go over and complain, but was directly hugged symbolically by No. 23 and left without looking back. This really... left Tang Qian with no chance to say anything. Alas,
Xiao Zhan, why are you so impatient? I still have a lot of things to say. Please walk slower, be careful of twisting your waist if you walk so fast!
After Tang Qian accepted a live interview with Tianchao Sports Station and warmed up, he said to the whole team, the Cavaliers have been knocked out of their spirit in the first game by us, and now we must pursue the victory! Kill them in one breath!
Just like the previous two years, let history continue to repeat itself. Remember, we have never lost against James of the Cavaliers in so many years. Do you think this is right?
The Lakers made an uproar and expressed their absolute approval of Tang Qian's half-joking and half-serious words.
I have never lost before. This is the biggest psychological hint. In the first game, the opponent's sharp blow was also caught. Will it be more difficult in the future? They are just... the Cavaliers. When we play the Cavaliers, we still
I really know what it feels like to lose. Tang Qian came up with a critical hit, and the opponent's inside line couldn't stop him at all. The Cavaliers also came hard tonight, cutting from the beginning. But I'm sorry, Tang Qian's hit tonight
The rate is not bad, so if you keep cutting, it will become a little bit impossible to cut. Because if you continue to cut like this, the gain will outweigh the loss, and it will do no harm to the morale of the team. If it can be effective, then everyone thinks it is worth it, but the effect is not good.
If so, it would be to give points to the opponent. The opponent's James is still impactful, so they can only put up a five-shooter lineup and replace Channing. Frye will open up the space. But tonight, the Lakers' strategy is very clear
, just don’t let James play out. You can pull away if you want, but we still have to double-team you! Trick you! Don’t let you get another 50 points tonight!
In addition to three-pointers, the Lakers began to assist defense and attack from the high position, so that James could not easily rush up. Even James is not so easy to attack with two people. After all, he is older now, and he is in the season.
The Cavaliers were basically counting on him in the postgame, and he almost didn't dare to go out. No way, who calls him a player with "his own system". The Cavaliers are also counting on him to play in James' system. Otherwise, there would be no more
, no one knows how to play. Even Love, who has not been holding the ball and attacking in recent years, to be honest, he is a little unsure if it suddenly comes.
So tonight the Lakers' tactics are very simple, just press you! Aren't you a super god? Aren't you in this year's playoffs called a nuclear explosion? Okay. Come on then. We'll have two of you tonight
! See if your teammates can give you enough support! This lineup is very strange. Larry Brown directly went into the lineup of Tang Qian + Yi Jianlian + Covington + Beverley + Rondo. It is equivalent to four good defenses
The players are also very fast, including Yi Jianlian, who is also a space-type power forward with strong athletic ability. So the main thing is to rotate after the double-team and try to attack James' double-team passing point. James is naturally
True to his so-called "team first" style of play, he would pass the ball when he was double-teamed. Unfortunately, the effect was pretty good at first. But immediately, the Los Angeles Lakers discovered a flaw. What flaw?
This flaw is J.R. Smith.
J.R. Smith didn't seem to be very awake in the last game, and his shooting percentage was only 30%. This is really low for a person who can catch and shoot. I saw him shooting immediately after getting the ball tonight, which is quite good.
Decisive, it seems that James also asked him to be decisive and not hesitate. However, J.R. Smith is just J.R. Smith after all. As soon as he shot the ball, he knew there was a problem. It was nothing else, but it was a little too far away.
If all these goals were scored, it would be really bloody. Tang Qian immediately protected the rebound, and the Lakers pushed quickly and scored directly. The Cavaliers' defensive energy seemed to be at its limit in the last game, and they lost the last game.
, which is equivalent to the defensive energy being exhausted, and then tonight it once again became the Cavaliers with the worst defensive efficiency in history. The Lakers easily pushed quickly, Rondo made a fake pass, and Beverley Cowen followed.
Dun scored the goal.
The Cavaliers still play like this, with James still controlling the ball. Basically there is no change, and I don’t know why they are really persistent. Playing like this, if they play with help and focus on defense, even if James plays the ball decisively and extremely accurately, then
You also need to feel it from the outside. If you don't feel it when shooting, it means it has become this kind of rhythm... James encounters help defense, releases the ball, shoots from the outside, and hits the iron. No more.
Such a simple style of play, such a monotonous style of play, simply does not resemble the technical and tactical level played by a team in the finals.
It's a pity that this is how the Cavaliers play. James throws the ball, then gets the ball from the outside, throws it directly, and then hits it. If he can't hit it, it is equivalent to a wasted effort. The Cavaliers' lineup is not
The Warriors' offensive rebound protection is not that good. Even if Tang Qian is transferred out, the Lakers still have Yi Jianlian who is about 7 feet tall, Covington who has a decent rebounding ability, and Rondo.
A short rebounder. Compared to the Cavaliers, he doesn't have too many disadvantages. If the Cavaliers can add another Thompson now, it will be of some use. But the problem is that once Thompson comes up, he can't get out of the three-point line.
In addition, the Los Angeles Lakers' No. 29 also went in. Once he went in, there was no need to think about low rebounds. Therefore, the Lakers pushed quickly when they got the ball. Tonight, Larry Brown was going to have one.
Defeat the Cavaliers with one breath! Make them breathless from the first breath!
Rondo pushed quickly, but the Cavaliers' defense was really bad, so he got in easily, faked a fax shot, and succeeded in his own layup.
The Cavaliers... What's special is that James dribbled the ball over. He really had no intention of using other tactics. This tactic guided by Lu is really, stick to it and be consistent, right? Of course, you want Lu to guide you now
When it comes to adapting to the situation and deploying any awesome tactics, I'm afraid it will be difficult for others. If he has this ability... he can't be the head coach at all, right?
What people want is a role that gives advice. He doesn't need you to have such ideas.
So when encountering this situation, unless James finds a solution on his own, he doesn't have to count on the coaching bench below.
Tang Qian couldn't help but want to laugh when he saw this tactic being launched without any changes. It's really James' system that will live or die. Anyway, he just kept it unchanged and used it to the end. This team, to be honest
Yeah, it's really a miracle that we can enter this year's finals. Before, Irving had a single point to enrich his tactics. Now, except for James, who is super good, the rest are basically just decorations. James passes the ball, and outside J.R Smith
When he uses his blacksmithing skills, James' heart and liver will hurt.
This is a player worth tens of millions of dollars.
Moreover, he chose and signed it himself, didn't he?
