Chapter 743 We Are the Champions
After a short break, the game continued in the second quarter.
LeBron, who only rested for 2 minutes in the first quarter, made his appearance early, directly turned on the God of War mode, and scored consecutively.
Seeing this, Su Yang instructed not to double-team, just encircle and restrict the passing route normally. Anyway, every time LeBron opens and closes, the Cavaliers have no one to organize the offense. Instead of letting the Cavaliers find their rhythm, it is better to let LeBron score. Better control the rhythm.
The second quarter ended quickly, and the Kings led the Cavaliers 70-61. Although LeBron made 8 of 7 in a single quarter and scored 16 points with free throws, the Cavaliers only had 4 assists in the entire second quarter, while the Kings had 11. , almost all easy scores.
On the King's side, Curry was still crazily double-teamed by the Cavaliers, with only 6 points, 4 assists and 3 rebounds in the half game.
Major basketball forums began to issue FMVP in advance, and Antetokounmpo got the highest approval rating without any suspense. Some people think that the FMVP should be shared by Curry and Antetokounmpo, because Antetokounmpo obviously enjoyed the benefits of Curry being crazy double-teamed.
Some fans also discussed the reasons for the failure of the Cavaliers' Big Four in advance. Some people said that Anthony can no longer be regarded as a giant. That kind of play with a lot of balls can reflect its value, and the Cavaliers already have LeBron and Irving in the team, and it is too difficult to distribute the ball.
Some people say that the formation of a Big Four team has never had a good result. Only teams such as the Lakers and Kings whose main stars are cultivated by themselves can truly exert the power of the Big Four. Otherwise, everyone has different ideas and there is always a lack of tacit understanding at critical moments.
Some people say that Irving is a cancer on the team. In fact, Irving should be traded away, leaving Love and Wiggins. The team's space and defense will be much better than they are now, because Irving is the kind of self-centered player. Strong, but not for the team.
Some people say that the Kings can open champagne at halftime.
The generals of the Kings were not too excited. The locker room was the same as usual. Cousins complained: "In this finals, I thought it would be a half-month battle. I didn't expect to win so easily. It's not as exciting as the big reversal of the Spurs before. ..."
Su Yang chuckled: "Pay attention, this sentence will be the material of the documentary. When the documentary is broadcast, you will definitely be blasted by the fans of the Cavaliers players..." The reminder is just a fake action, the point is not to let the indulgence affect the whole team, Only 9 points ahead.
Cousins immediately shut up, and everyone in the king burst into laughter.
The third quarter started immediately.
It may be because of fear, the Cavaliers made adjustments, LeBron continued to attack and defend with all his strength, and didn't care about the defense at all, and Anthony, who was poor in defense, was replaced by Shumpert in the starting lineup, and the entire Cavaliers looked like desperadoes play games.
The Kings responded calmly, but were still affected by the high-intensity defense. After three quarters, they only had a 3-point lead.
Back in the fourth quarter, the situation has not changed.
Between the two teams, as Butler hit the second consecutive three-pointer, the Cavaliers went ahead and led the Kings by 4 points.
With 1 minute and 24 seconds left, Su Yang raised his hand to signal a timeout, ready to adjust his strategy for the final decisive battle.
Cheers erupted in the arena, and the king's generals answered the bench. Su Yang picked up the three tactical boards that had been prepared, explained the three defensive strategies one after another, and then concluded: "At the last moment, we will compete with spirit and fighting spirit. We must first defend ..."
At the same time, in the ESPN live broadcast seat, Van Gundy stared at the statistics and sighed: "As of now, LeBron has scored 46 points, 7 assists and 11 rebounds. He is still at his peak, but it is difficult for him to win this game. , He may be the top five in history, he has formed a strong team many times, but Su Yang's coaching team is always stronger, it can only be said that it is God's arrangement."
Jackson nodded: "I really believe that for a player like LeBron who failed to win a championship, future fans will be very puzzled, just like some of our young fans now wonder why Marcaron didn't win the championship. "
A short whistle sounded and the game continued.
The King kicked off from the left side of the frontcourt, and the A-shaped formation fell.
All the audience stood up and watched. The referee whistled the ball to time the ball. Antetokounmpo and LaVine started running from the left and right bottom corners and rushed towards each other. At the top, with the help of the elevator doors of Nance Jr. and Curry on the left and right sides of the free throw line, he went straight to the top of the arc, and Covington passed the ball synchronously outside the court.
Cheers erupted, Antetokounmpo got the ball to protect his chest, Nance Jr.'s screen was in place, and LeBron rushed past.
But Nance Jr. changed direction and made a screen, and then quickly disassembled and cut in. LeBron could only run in, and the situation was dislocated.
Antetokounmpo singled out TT Thompson at the top of the arc.
Seeing this, Su Yang waved his hands to the sides, signaling all the members to pull away and let Brother Antetokounmpo single out, and Lavin and others were ordered to do so immediately.
Brother Antetokounmpo then crossed to the left and made a breakthrough. He didn't have any skills, but his speed advantage overwhelmed Thompson. He hit the left waist on the right with three big strides. The shot was made, and the basketball slammed into the net hollowly.
"it is good!"
Su Yang clenched his fist and waved it. Invisibly, he felt that this ball was played like Durant. He played like this at many critical moments before.
The cheers in the arena switched to defensive shouts in an instant. The Cavaliers kicked off the bottom line from the backcourt to launch an offense, and LeBron advanced from the left.
After passing the center line, the three Cavaliers stepped forward to cover at the same time, forced Antetokounmpo to switch defenses, and faced LeBron at the top of the arc.
Su Yang was dumbfounded on the spot, thinking that Tyronn Lue really had a lot of ghost ideas, and he actually came up with a three-cover tactic, which must be admired.
I saw LeBron withdraw to the center line, intentionally compressing the time, until there were 7 seconds left, suddenly accelerated and started, continuously changing direction and rushing to the free throw line, taking advantage of the king's shrinking encirclement, raised his hand and passed the ball to Bart in the left corner Le, the three-pointer went off.
when!Basketball hits the basket and hits the iron.
Butler failed to hit the third consecutive three-pointer, the audience burst into cheers, and Nance Jr. jumped high to get the rebound.
Curry stepped forward to catch the ball and pushed it across the center line like lightning. Seeing that no one came up to double-team the Cavaliers, he made an emergency stop at two steps outside the three-point line and took a long shot. The basketball hit the circle and rebounded into the net. Knight, with only 115 seconds.
"Ahhhh!"
The shouts of the audience on the sidelines exploded, and Su Yang couldn't help shouting too. Curry, who was double-teamed in the audience, suddenly made a three-pointer.
Killing hearts!
44.6 seconds left.
The Cavaliers rushed to make a fast break. Irving dribbled the ball across the center line and stopped on the right wing to seek cover. But just as Butler ran up, Irving waved his hand to signal his refusal. Stop and pull the ball back.
Facing Curry is a three-pointer!
But the basketball hits the basket and rebounds.
Nance Jr. rose from the ground and grabbed the rebound, turned around and threw it to Curry, with only 23.8 seconds left, the final attack.
The Cavaliers did not foul, and Su Yang did not call a timeout. Curry slowly brought the ball across the center line, and Irving stepped forward to defend.
The basketball passed to the LOGO area in the middle, Antetokounmpo took the ball and hugged it firmly. Anyway, the Cavaliers did not move, nor did he himself.
Time passed quickly, the Cavaliers were forced to help, Anthony stepped forward to hug Antetokounmpo for a tactical foul and gave two free throws.
Seeing this, Su Yang turned and looked at the bench: "Lopez, Grant, you two are going to go on the court to protect the rebound..."
Lopez stood up when they heard the sound, walked quickly to the technical platform and stood still, while Antetokounmpo received the ball and executed the first free throw.
The audience chanted MVP in unison, Antetokounmpo gathered his momentum for 8 seconds and made a steady shot, the basketball smashed into the basket and spun and fell into the net.
The short whistle sounded, and Lopez entered the field to replace Curry and LaVine, and the Kings formed the top five.
Cheers reappeared in the arena, and Antetokounmpo scored the second free throw hollow. The Kings led the Cavaliers 117 to 114.
The referee's whistle followed, and the Cavaliers requested a timeout. There were 8.7 seconds left in the game.
The Kings returned to the bench, and Su Yang gave some strategies that he had prepared in advance: two points for a breakthrough, no dunks for lobs, no fouls at the three-point line, and if TT Thompson catches the ball, it depends on the situation A foul starts a penalty shootout.
Anyway, the Kings have two free throw masters, Curry and Brogdon, and the probability of winning a penalty shootout is much higher than that of the Cavaliers.
After talking about the strategy, Su Yang made adjustments again. Curry and Brogdon appeared on the stage, together with Covington, Antetokounmpo and Nance Jr., to form a super defensive lineup. In fact, he also thought about replacing Curry with a better defensive Payton Jr. , but Curry cannot be missing in historical moments.
Between the speeches, the pause ends.
The whistle sounded, and the players of the two teams returned to the field.
According to Su Yang's arrangement, the Kings will focus on defending the three-point line.
The referee blew the whistle to time the ball, the Cavaliers continued to cover and run, and the basketball was passed to LeBron in the right corner. The situation was very embarrassing.
LeBron hurriedly stepped up to grab space, but the Kings didn't encircle them, they just didn't invite LeBron to break through for a layup.
Maybe he knew he couldn't win with two points, so LeBron forced the ball out, passed it to TT first, then took over and passed it back, pressing the last bit of time to stop and jump, facing the double of Antetokounmpo and Nance Jr. Blocked and made a difficult three-pointer.
The basketball bounced back with a clatter.
The whistle at the end of the game sounded simultaneously, and the Kings defeated the Cavaliers 117 to 114 and successfully achieved four consecutive championships.
Cheers resounded through the arena, and the sky filled the sky to celebrate the falling of the ribbons, followed by the singing of "We Are the Champions".
Su Yang walked to the technical stage, shook hands with Tyronn Lue, walked into the field, shook hands with LeBron, Butler and others, his heart was full of peace, really like what Cousins said, the last game in the playoffs The exciting moment is actually a big reversal of the Spurs.
The whole team gathered together to celebrate, Su Yang hugged each other, and Rose bluntly said that he was willing to stay with a basic salary for another season.
Su Yang didn't take it seriously. He knew that the team behind Ross was not so easy to handle, but he happily responded that there was no problem.
The award ceremony was held immediately, Antetokounmpo won the FMVP without any suspense, and when Curry spoke, the cheers were equally spectacular.
Su Yang spoke at the end, and the audience shouted for him to promise five consecutive championships. Xiao Hua laughed and said that it would ruin the entire league.
"It is foreseeable that we will have major personnel changes next season. From the perspective of a professional coach, I cannot guarantee you five consecutive championships, but I can assure you that we will never stop. Will scale new heights.
At least I personally will catch up with Phil Jackson in terms of the number of champions, and the ultimate goal is to make the king the number one. "
Even writing novels feels that eight championships are terrible. Phil Jackson can win 11 championships, which is crazy.
