warrior godfather

After the end of G2 of the finals and before the start of G3, Zhan Mi's criticism of Love has not stopped.

They can't stand Love's softness. They are all power forwards. Why is Antetokounmpo so hard and Love so soft?

"Hey, Lao Zhan is really miserable. He has never had good teammates around him, especially the inside line. One is softer than the other. They are all so soft!"

"Aren't the dead five children afraid of insiders? If Lao Zhan has a strong insider by his side, are they still afraid of warriors?"

"I really want to see Lao Zhan teaming up with a top insider. For so many years, Lao Zhan has only lacked an insider, so he has no championship..."

They are fed up with these weak insiders around James, thinking about a strong insider day and night, it is best to combine offense and defense, go in vertically and horizontally, and then have a mid-range shot to open up space for James. If they can not occupy the ball, then It just couldn't be better.

But looking at the league, there are very few such insiders. Antetokounmpo, who has blown up the Cavaliers' insiders, can't meet this requirement. He doesn't shoot and drags too much space, which will block James' breakthrough.

In the end, Jamie found that only thick eyebrows met James' requirements.

The thick eyebrows are invincible at the end of the line, and the mid-range is accurate. One person can support a team's defensive system. The most important thing is that he does not take possession of the ball and is a perfect fit for James.

Many Zhan Mi, who were depressed because of the loss, ran to the Pelican zone and said humblely:

"A question to the Pelicans fans, do you support Lao Zhan and the thick eyebrow partner?"

"What a pity, Lao Zhan and Nongmei are a match made in heaven. If they can fit together, they will be absolutely invincible."

"Lao Zhan is not happy at all in the Cavaliers. It would be great if he could come to play with the Pelicans. If the thick eyebrows are fed by Lao Zhan, he will take off directly!"

Pelicans fans are quite sober:
"Don't pin your hopes on the thick eyebrows, we have never won the Warriors..."

"Don't dream, brother, what about James + thick eyebrows? You can't see the Warriors lineup? It's useless. Five All-Star teams are still very compatible. Even the All-Star team can't beat it."

"That's right, where do you find four more All-Stars who can play both with and without the ball? At the critical moment, Green can come up to form the Death Five. Two best defensive players are on the court at the same time. Who can stand it!"

Pelicans fans have been heavily psychologically shadowed by the Warriors, and they don't think that a combination of James and thick eyebrows can defeat the Warriors.

If the Warriors' lineup is even worse, James + thick eyebrows may still have a chance, but the Warriors have too many stars and the lineup is too strong. Zhan Mi is really desperate to lose, and she has to go to the doctor in a hurry, so she can infinitely raise her evaluation of thick eyebrows.

In fact, they themselves also know James' weakness, that is, as a striker, he cannot provide the high-quality defense that a striker should have. This is the fundamental reason why the Cavaliers' interior defense is particularly weak.

In the past, James was in the heat of the Heat. He was at his peak and had not yet won the championship. He was full of enthusiasm and went all out on the defensive end. This problem was not serious.

But after he returned to the Cavaliers, he was getting older and older, and he was attacking and organizing, and the defensive end was getting weaker and weaker. He often stood with his hips on the spot and waited for the board.

And Love is not a defensive insider. The Cavaliers can only rely on Tristan Thompson, an undersized insider, to support him, and the defense in the penalty area is deteriorating.

This is also the fundamental reason why Director Lu had to take out the Super Five to fight the Warriors. The Cavaliers are destined to be unable to defend the restricted area. They simply don't want a center forward and let James bring four shooters to fight against the Warriors. Betting that the Cavaliers' offensive efficiency will be higher high.

It's just that the Warriors' offense is too stable. On the defensive end, there are three heavy strikers Leonard, Green, and Antetokounmpo.

If James' team wants to solve the defensive problem, there must be another striker to provide assistance and even support the team's defensive system, so that James can rest assured on the defensive end.

Thick eyebrows are the best choice. He can protect the frame and sweep away. One person can be used as two people, as long as he is paired with a defensive player.

With a qualified striker, James can take a complete rest.

In Zhang Yu's previous life, James had this configuration in the Lakers, and there were defensive champions like Caruso and Pope on the back line.

James can put all his energy on the offensive end, has thick eyebrows to attract defense, scores more easily, and can feed cakes to thick eyebrows.

But there is also a problem with doing so. Under this system, James' influence on the team has been greatly reduced. Although the statistics are still dazzling, the real core of the team is actually the thick eyebrows that integrate offense and defense.

As long as the thick eyebrows are absent, the team's strength will seriously decline, and it will even be difficult to win.

Of course, this kind of shortcoming may not be a big deal. After all, the role of the defensive end is not as conspicuous as the data, and it can be covered up with off-court strength. Otherwise, after the Lakers win the championship in 2020, James will not win fmvp unanimously.

Of course, only James can enjoy this kind of treatment, and no one can vote with James.

In the 2015 Finals, Iguodala only scored a few open three-pointers, made some contributions on the defensive end, and won fmvp.

And Curry scored 37 points in the crucial battle of Tianwangshan, and even scored 17 points in a single quarter in the fourth quarter, leading the team to the match point, but did not even get a vote.

Many people say how great the role of Iguodala is, but the core of the Warriors' defense at the time was Green, and the core of the offense was Curry. Curry's scoring average was about 10 points higher than Iguodala's. Extremely tough, but not even one vote, and even James has 4 votes, which is really surprising.

It's just like competitive sports. Fans only look at the results, and the public lacks reason. People will only remember that Curry didn't win the award, but they won't see why he didn't win the award.

Only Curry always needs to prove himself. As long as a game is not played well, it cannot be included in the discussion of various awards and best players. ", or "Old Zhan is too tired, teammate CBA".

No one remembers Curry's performance as a god, they will only stare at one of his poor games and ridicule him.

What's more interesting is that whenever the Warriors play against other teams, people will wantonly analyze the advantages of the Warriors' opponents, such as no solution to the inside attack, no solution to the inside attack, no solution to Curry's name, no solution to the striker's singles, but forget Curry It is unsolvable in itself.

They always ignore the existence of Curry either intentionally or unintentionally, and even some Warriors fans are affected by this, worrying, forgetting Curry's supernatural performance that has turned the tide and helped the building to collapse countless times in the past.

Only when Curry stood up again at a critical moment and slapped the whole world in the face, did they suddenly realize-yes, we have Curry, so there is nothing to be afraid of!

However, they only wake up briefly, and then they are caught in the next cycle, worrying and panicking until Curry slaps the world in the face again.

The power of marketing is so powerful that it can make the toughest star leave a weak impression in people's minds, and even his fans believe in it.

On the contrary, the people who are often swept away, run around, break their promises and get fat, just because of the advantage of their long working years, they make more key shots, and after being promoted by the media, they are transformed into a tough emperor.

However, no matter how powerful marketing is, it has its limits.

A star must have solid goods in his hand in order to be touted, and he must have shortcomings in his body in order to step down hard.

Now James has only five runners-up and no champions. Nike wants to hold it hard, but there is no way to hold it.

Especially after being swept by the Warriors in the finals last year, James has been swept in the finals twice, and may never be able to get rid of his reputation as a "soft guy".

Curry, on the other hand, cannot be associated with "weakness". With four championships in hand and a 100% winning rate in the finals, others can't be blacked out even if they want to. After racking their brains, they can only say that the Warriors lineup is too strong. It's over.

But the lineup of the Warriors was all chosen by Zhang Yu himself, and there is nothing to do too much about it. Otherwise, with James rushing around to form the Big Three "before the jewels and jade", wouldn't it be like lifting a rock to hit yourself? feet?

Even in terms of statistics, Curry and James are not inferior.

James has the label of "all-round", Curry's scoring champion is soft, and he has 4 mvp, which completely overwhelms James.

James only has an advantage in minor honors such as a team and an All-Star, but when Curry has a longer working life, he will soon be able to catch up.

So after losing the game, Zhan Mi couldn't even find a few black spots to attack the Warriors and Curry. In order not to hold back internal injuries, she could only fantasize about James building a stronger lineup and then find the Warriors to settle the score.

It's just that the Pelicans fans ruthlessly pierced their fantasy. As one of the Warriors' designated cash machine teams, they know the horror of the Warriors better than anyone else.

The Warriors' unsolvable lineup cannot be countered by James + thick eyebrows.

Unless Zhang Yu is arrogant enough to let Green hold the ball and continue to pass and cut, there may be some twists and turns, otherwise as long as a shooter is randomly arranged next to the four major stars, Curry holds the ball and Antetokounmpo plays a pick-and-roll, and the Warriors will undoubtedly win.

It's not impossible for Green to play, as long as he is used as a pure blue-collar, Curry will control the ball all the way, and he will undoubtedly win.

However, Jamie, who was already scared of losing, couldn't listen to the persuasion of the Pelicans fans. She was full of expectations for the cooperation between James and Big Eyebrow, and even initiated a vote in the Cavaliers area, which caused heated debates internally.

In this kind of debate, the time came to June 6, the Warriors and Cavaliers' finals G7 started at the Quicken Loans Center.

It's just that even the most diehard Cavaliers fans don't expect the Cavaliers to win.

The probability of the Cavaliers winning the championship has dropped to 0.1%, and there is no way to drop it. No matter how many people look down on the Cavaliers.

Only this time, no one thinks James is the "protagonist" anymore.
