Spoelstra didn't talk about the responsibility for the failure, because he knew that the Heat had achieved the ultimate in all aspects of this game. They lost the game purely because their skills were not as good as others. No one needs to take responsibility.

But not everyone thinks this way. The onlookers are clear and the authorities are fans. The head coach is usually more sober, but the players who have fought for the whole game and performed well, but lost the battle of Tianwangshan in the end, cannot accept this.

Wade said in an interview:
"There must be something wrong. We should have won this game. This is our home stadium. We shouldn't have gone to Oakland with a score of 2:3. This is really bad..."

Bosh said:

"I don't know why we lost, each of us worked so hard, me, LeBron, Dwayne gave everything, everyone else contributed, but we still lost, maybe we were too lucky. Bad, Stephen Curry scored 52 points, but that doesn't make us lose, LeBron scored 1 points in G56, but we didn't win that game..."

Wade and Bosh just complained about the loss, but James directly expressed his dissatisfaction:
"We made a huge mistake today, this is a game that can't be lost, but we still lost, we let Stephen Curry make 10 three-pointers, scored 52 points, it can't be made up Wrong! Everyone knows that Stephen Curry will shoot a three-pointer. We shouldn’t give him such a chance, but our defense is very chaotic, and the defensive strategy changes frequently. I don’t know what to do. If we insist on pinching Stephen Curry , maybe the ending of this game will be different..."

The reporter was in an uproar immediately, and James almost directly named him, bombarding Spoelstra's defensive arrangement for being too chaotic, which led to the Heat's loss.

Is the Heat going to fight among themselves?

A reporter soon remembered an old incident between James and Spoelstra. It was in November 2010. In a game between the Heat and the Mavericks, James deliberately hit Spoelstra during a timeout. Poelstra's shoulders, though both men later denied any conflict.

It was even reported before that James was very dissatisfied with Spoelstra's coaching and wanted to dismiss him, but under the protection of Pat Riley, Spoelstra kept his coaching position.

Of course, this was also denied by James and Spoelstra. In front of the outside world, the two have always maintained a harmonious relationship.

Could it be that, after the continuous defeat in the finals, the Heat are finally going to have internal strife?

The reporters were very excited and hurriedly asked:
"LeBron, do you mean that the Heat lost because Coach Spoelstra had a problem with his tactics?"

"LeBron, do you think Stephen Curry scored 52 points because the Heat's defense made a mistake?"

"LeBron..."

But James didn't answer these questions. With a livid face, he got up and left, ending the interview directly.

Soon, the news that "James was dissatisfied with the team's defense and accused the head coach of too chaotic tactics" rushed into the hot search.

Such heavy news immediately attracted the attention of fans all over the world, especially James fans who were suffocated because of the loss.

"Damn! I said a long time ago that Spoelstra is not good at all. It's all his fault that the Heat haven't won the championship in recent years!"

"James finally couldn't bear it anymore. When I watched the game, I scolded him. He flanked Curry for a while and didn't flank Curry for a while. How do you let the players defend? The defense is all messed up. Can you not lose the game?"

"The Big Three are playing so well, but they still can't win. Does James have to score 50 games to win?"

"Stupid head coach, if you keep pinching Curry, won't you win?"

They finally found a vent, and all their dissatisfaction with the loss was vented out. Spoelstra was criticized verbally and became the biggest culprit for the Heat's loss.

But it is not without other voices. It is not just the Heat fans who have watched the battle of Tianwangshan, but also the Warriors fans, and many neutral fans. Unwarranted accusations, they all stood up and spoke up for him:

"Is there a possibility that if the Heat keep pinching Curry, they will be shot to death by the rest of the Warriors? How did the Heat lose in G1, have you all forgotten? And Coach Z played Danny Green and Parson in the fourth quarter Si, no matter which coach, they will let them go to flank Curry, right? It can only be said that Coach Z is superior, and it cannot be said that Spoelstra's tactics are problematic!"

"That's right, and James scored 50 and didn't win? The Heat won one of the first two games by referees, and one by the Big Three as a whole. James? Do you think he is Curry?"

"Why do you blame the head coach every time you lose? Is there another possibility that the Heat just can't beat the Warriors? After all, Curry is the leader of the Warriors, and James is the leader of the Heat. This is obviously not a star of the same level!"

"Honey, I suggest James to be the head coach here. I really want to see how he can defend against Curry. Don't throw all the blame on the coach. Is it that difficult to admit that he is not as good as Curry?"

But obviously, it is impossible for them to admit that the Heat lost because they were not as strong as the Warriors.

The Heat are the Big Three team, how could it be weaker than the Warriors?
Unless... Wade and Bosh are themselves a drag.

But no matter how extreme Jamie is, she has to admit that Wade and Bosh have performed very well in these few games.

As a result, they could only let Spoelstra take the blame and continue to attack Spoelstra, accusing him of tactics. Because Spoelstra's tactics are not working.

As for the 2011 Finals, no one mentioned it.

……

When the Warriors were interviewed, the atmosphere was much more relaxed. They won the Tianwangshan battle and returned to the home court with a big score of 3:2. They held the match point and occupied a great advantage. wave to them.

The first person to be interviewed was Curry, the absolute hero of the Warriors who won the game.

The reporters asked him how he felt when he scored 52 points and broke the record for three-pointers in a single game in the Finals.

There was a trace of fatigue in Curry's expression. He went all out for this game and played for 41 minutes. In the extremely intense second half, he only rested for a total of 2 minutes, which exhausted his physical energy.

He smiled happily:

"I didn't think so much about high scores and breaking records. I didn't think about those things. After coming to Miami, we have suffered two consecutive losses. We can't lose again. I will never allow the Heat to get match points. There is only one thought in my mind, and that is to win this game at all costs!"

"For this, I gave everything. The Heat played well, but we played this game with a life and death mentality. In the end, we won and got the match point, which is great, but we are still far from defending the title. There's a win, it's not time to let up, we can't celebrate a win..."

Although they won the victory, Curry still reminded his teammates in front of the media that the Warriors have not yet won the championship, and they still need to return to the home court to fight for another victory.

The mature side of Curry surprised the reporters. This is not like the mentality of a young player.

They asked Curry again how he felt about breaking the record, and Curry laughed:
"It's a lie to say that I'm not happy, but it's just a game. Statistics don't mean anything. Only victory is worth celebrating. I'm happier than scoring 52 points and making 10 three-pointers. Won the game today."

The reporters looked at each other, and they all remembered that after the Heat lost G1, when James was interviewed after the game, he seemed to say this:
"...I am very honored to have my name on the record list of the finals. This is a supreme honor. I will continue to work hard..."

Moreover, James seemed to be smiling when he said this sentence...

When Curry's interview was reported, the fans also praised him greatly:

"Curry is too mature, who can tell, he is only 24 this year!"

"Curry really doesn't care about statistics. He often clocks in three quarters. If he consciously scores points, tsk tsk..."

But there are also people who are eccentric:

"Hehe, Curry doesn't score points. How did the three scoring champions come about? James really doesn't score points. He takes a scoring champion to prove his scoring ability, and then he doesn't score points again. This is selflessness! "

"Really? I beg James to win a few more scoring champions. Hey, he doesn't seem to have a championship yet? Why don't he win a championship as well to prove his strength? James is so strong, it's not like he can't get it Right? No way?"

"What is the championship? The runner-up is the best. After all, the opponent of the champion is only the runner-up, and the opponent of the runner-up is the champion. Can this have the same gold content? James has three runners-up, much better than Curry!"

Obviously, as a loser, they have no right to speak. The yin and yang people were mobilized and attacked, and soon disappeared.

……

Zhang Yu was the last person interviewed by the Warriors. The reporter's first question was the Warriors' tactics in this game:

"Ronan, can you tell me why you arranged Stephen's high-post pick-and-roll tactic? Was it suggested by him, or did you arrange it on your own initiative?"

Zhang Yu said:

"It's all right. Stephen came to me first, said he wanted to score, and asked me if there was any way to prevent him from being flanked so deadly. I thought about it and told him, yes, just play pick-and-roll after passing the center line. Don’t dare to double-team you, do you dare? Stephen didn’t hesitate, and immediately agreed, so we have our tactics today.”

"Aren't you worried that he can't make those ultra-long three-pointers? Stephen's pick-and-roll position is far beyond the conventional shooting range."

Zhang Yu shook his head and said firmly:

"I'm not worried at all. If there is only one person in this world who can shoot these ultra-long three-pointers, then he must be Stephen. I believe he can do it. If he can't do it, then the whole league can't do it." People can do it."

"But no one should be able to do this..." the reporter who asked the question couldn't help interjecting.

"So Stephen is the top scorer in history, others are not."

"Ronan, do you think Stephen is already the number one shooter in history?" Zhang Yu's words immediately aroused the interest of the reporters.

Zhang Yu smiled and said:

"That's right, Stephen has broken the record for three-pointers in a single season for four consecutive seasons, as well as the record for three-pointers in a single game in the regular season. Today he broke the record for three-pointers in a single game in the Finals. There is no doubt that he It’s the top scorer in history! And, it’s time to include Steph in the discussion of the top [-] players in history. His performance is phenomenal. I can’t find [-] players in front of him in NBA history.”

"what?"

"Top fifteen in history? Curry?"

"how is this possible……"

Zhang Yu's words immediately caused a little commotion. No one expected that Zhang Yu would publicly declare that Curry was a top [-] player in history. These reporters immediately wanted to refute.

But Zhang Yu didn't give them this chance. After nodding to the reporters with a smile, he got up and left, ending the interview.

It is enough for him to be responsible for bringing up the topic, so does he still need to explain it himself?
Soon, the news that "Coach Z said that Curry is the number one shooter in NBA history and has reached the top [-] level in history" spread widely.

Many people's first reaction is to object:

"Is Coach Z too excited? I admit that Curry is very strong, but how long has Curry played? How could he be the top [-] in history?"

"Yes, Curry is really awesome, but he is still far away from the top fifteen, right? There are more than fifteen people who are better than Curry in my mind."

"Really? Then tell me, which fifteen are they?" Curry fans asked back.

"Jordan, Russell, Kareem, Magic, Chamberlain, O'Neal, Olajuwon, Duncan, Bird, Robertson, West, Julius Erving, Moses Malone, Bob Cousy... James!"

"What the hell? James? He can enter the top fifteen in history, but Curry can't? James has two MVPs, Curry also has two MVPs, Curry has one more championship and FMVP than him, and you tell me, James Ahead of Curry?"

"James has seven best first teams, five best first defenses, and nine consecutive All-Star starts. Does Curry have these things?

"Good guy, does James have a championship? Use the first team, first defense, and All-Star starters to make up the number? No championship, what a fart!"

"Actually, I think Coach Z is still conservative. Curry is not only the top 1 in history, but Robertson also has 1 championship and [-] MVP. Why is he ranked ahead of Curry? Julius Erving, Moses Malone, Bob Cousy, etc. They are all ancient figures, and the honor has to be discounted, how can Curry be ranked in the top twelve!"

"You don't need to compete with them, wait until the finals are over, wait until the Warriors win another championship, Curry will have 2 MVPs and 2 championships, and they will continue to win. At that time, Olajuwon will not be enough to watch!"

"Damn it, brother, don't be a baby, the loan will not end well!"

"What are you afraid of? The last two games are the Warriors' home games. How can this turn over? Be bold, the Warriors will be the champion!"
