warrior godfather

"Om-"

After the red light came on, the auditorium became empty. Some fans got up and left cursing.

But by the time they walked out of Quicken Loans, things were back to normal.

The game is over and life goes on.

For the players, the game is all they have.

After the Cavaliers players shook hands with their opponents, they walked towards the player tunnel in silence with a disappointed expression.

James finally didn't leave early this time. He shook hands with the Warriors players hastily before walking into the player tunnel.

In the first two games, he was replaced early, and he would leave directly after the game without attracting too much attention.

But today the point difference was not widened, and there was no garbage time in the fourth quarter. The main players of the two teams stayed on the court. If James left directly after the game, it would be a bit eye-catching.

But why did he have such a mood, he just reluctantly went through the process and then walked away.

James' performance tonight is actually quite good, at least from the data point of view.

他全场出战41分钟，22投11中，三分5中2，罚球17中15，砍下39分11篮板9助攻1抢断1封盖的准三双，打出了总决赛最好的一场比赛。

All of his points were within the penalty area, and none of his mid-range shots, as long as he broke in, either scored or went to the free throw line.

However, James' free throws were mainly concentrated in the first half, and he scored 9 points in the second quarter. In the second half, Zhang Yu adjusted his tactics. The Warriors' ability to protect the frame declined seriously, and the number of fouls dropped a lot.

But this is not a good thing. The referee does not blow the whistle, and the game is always in a smooth rhythm. The Warriors further accelerated the pace of the game. The two sides played fast, and the Warriors were more accurate in three-pointers.

James has been scoring, but when he watched the Tsunami brothers make unreasonable three-pointers one by one, and when Zhang Yu replaced each shooter and made open three-pointers, his heart was trembling.

He thought of G3 of last year's finals. In that game, the league was also dead-guarding the Cavaliers, and the Warriors also made crazy three-pointers. They made a total of 25 three-pointers, breaking the record for three-pointers in a single game in the playoffs. pressure and won the game.

Today was an even crazier game. The Warriors took 69 three-pointers and made 30 of them, setting new NBA Finals records.

库里31分，投进7个三分；克莱24分，投进6个三分；伦纳德21分，投进4个三分；奥利尼克11分，投进3个三分；考文顿12分，投进3个三分；维金斯8分，投进2个三分；博格丹12分，投进4个三分；丁威迪6分，投进1个三分。

Led by the Splash Brothers, the warriors are all soldiers. This is a superstar victory and a team victory.

The three-pointers of the Tsunami brothers accounted for more than half of the team, but without the open three-pointers made by others, the Warriors could not have won this game.

Xiao Hua's determination to protect the Cavaliers is very firm, and the referee's control of the field is also very strong, but the Cavaliers have encountered the Warriors with a fantastic lineup.

The referee can no longer decide the outcome of the finals. The Warriors' three-point firepower is so powerful that they can even win the game with only three-pointers.

Unless the referee sends off Curry, Clay, and Leonard, the Cavaliers can't win the game. This is the crushing of absolute strength.

And Zhang Yu will not give the referee this opportunity. The Warriors players don't complain, and if they don't get started, the referee can't blow it if they want to.

In the fourth quarter, the referee repeatedly tried to give the Cavaliers free throws, but they couldn't find a chance. They could only find a few innocuous fouls and illegal screens. The Cavaliers didn't even get a bonus.

The Warriors have maintained a lead of about 10 points, unable to draw further, and will not be overtaken by the Cavaliers until the end of the game.

At the end of the game, James has lost his spirit, but he still has to score two points. Otherwise, if he loses the game, the statistics will not be as good as others. Isn't this game for nothing?

It's just that James' mind is no longer on the game. The big score is 0:3 behind, and the Cavaliers are gone. Any effort at this time will look very stupid.

As shrewd as he is, he will gain something by doing things, and he will never do things that are wasted.

James can now be sure that the Big Three of the Cavaliers have also failed. If they want to win the championship, they must find better teammates.

The Warriors are too strong, maybe the Big Three are no longer enough, the four-star battle formation and the five-star battle formation are king.

And this is the problem. He worked hard to form the two Big Three teams, the Heat and the Cavaliers, but they failed. Who else can he find as teammates?

Thinking of this, James can't help feeling full of resentment, blaming the Warriors for being too aggressive and raising the bar for winning the championship so high that the Big Three are not enough, otherwise why would he run back from the Heat?
If the Warriors hadn't been born, he would have won the championship in the Heat. Even if he returns to the Cavaliers, he doesn't need to compromise with the management, and he can control everything in his own hands.

But now, he hasn't won a single championship, he is cast aside by Heat fans and Cavaliers fans, and he will soon be 0:4 Curry, let alone GOAT, if he continues like this, he will have no chance to even be in the top ten in history.

James still took GOAT as his goal in the first two seasons. If he loses this time, he no longer wants to do GOAT.

His GOAT dream has been completely shattered by Curry. He is also 33 and has only a few years in his career. He just wants to win a championship and retire decently, which is enough.

For this reason, he doesn't mind running away again, and rushing again at the end.

James doesn't even think about the promise of bringing Cleveland a championship. He is still confused about the way forward, how can he take care of his hometown?

It's a pity that he can't shake Curry's status, otherwise the Warriors are definitely the best choice.

Splash is a super shooter who can open up the space. Antetokounmpo ends the top line inside. It is a defender tailored for him.

However, who would let go of the four championships in five years, no, Curry, who is about to have five championships in six years, will not want to help the five Asian kings?
At least Zhang Yu will not do this, James can only give up this "hardest road".

But other than that, James doesn't know which team to go to is the best choice.

He is used to controlling everything, and the compromise with the Cavaliers management has already made him very unhappy. The next stop, James wants to be the emperor again.

From the beginning to the end, he never considered staying in the Cavaliers.

Last summer, when Durant entered the free agency market, James was overjoyed and urged David Griffin to sign Durant at all costs.

But David Griffin rejected James' request, saying that he would no longer be a stud star. Gilbert also expressed his support for David Griffin, and the Cavaliers withdrew from the battle for Durant.

This made James completely chilled.

He is 33 years old, and the peak period has not been a few years, and the Cavaliers still have reservations. Isn't this a waste of his championship window?

What is the future of the team, so what does it matter to him?
He just wants to be a champion!
As for what David Griffin said about the luxury tax, the Big Three, and draft picks, James didn't listen.

He is willing to return to Cleveland, isn't it because the Cavaliers have draft picks and Irving, can they form the Big Three?
He is not a philanthropist, he really cares about his hometown, otherwise there would be no need to leave the Cavaliers for the Heat.

Everything he does is for the championship, wherever he can win the championship, he will go there.

At the same time, he also needs a reputation, so he has to play the names of "brother basketball" and "hometown basketball", but he is actually going to the team that is most suitable for winning the championship.

So he will never leave the team before the contract expires, which will weaken the strength of the new club, and joining as a free agent is purely strengthening, and it can also leave a good reputation. Why not do it?

But this time, he might not be able to do it again.

He is 33 years old, and he is getting more and more powerless on the court. He doesn't know how many years he can maintain his peak level. If he spends another year in the Cavaliers, he may really have no championship for life.

Of course, if he can put down his airs and assist other superstars, the possibility of winning the championship will be greatly increased.

But without the champion of fmvp, it is worse than a piece of waste paper. It will not add any bonus to the historical status, but it will confirm his title of "soft guy".

James wants both the championship and fmvp, so he can only be the boss.

And this is undoubtedly the biggest obstacle in front of him-which team will use a 34-year-old foreign veteran without a championship as the absolute core, and overdraw the future for him, a stud superstar, and fight for the championship with all its strength?

James doesn't know the answer, but he has another summer to think about it.

And before that, he still has one final, no, maybe two finals.

But he doesn't care anymore, there is no difference between a sweep and a gentleman sweep, even if it is a 3:4 loss, it is meaningless.

As long as there is no champion, everything is empty talk.

Even if it is 1:3 behind, James will do everything in the next game to win, because this is not without the possibility of a comeback.

But the 0:3 desperation has never had a precedent for a comeback in NBA history, and James lost all his fighting spirit. He only wanted to end the finals as soon as possible and consider his future career.

This is one of the reasons why James always "wins hard, loses easy".

The all-encompassing "James system" weakens the role of other stars, and often uses a higher-level lineup to defeat opponents with a worse lineup.

As long as the opponent's lineup is at the same level and the "James system" that cannot give full play to the strength of the giants in the lineup, it will be difficult to win.

And in the case of a large score behind, James will not be so desperate, and the crash will come very quickly.

He will even directly adopt the method of not returning to defense when the team is at a disadvantage, to vent his dissatisfaction, instead of fighting for the final hope of a comeback.

But now, James doesn't have a single champion in his hand, so he doesn't dare to put on such a big airs and stay passive, which is the limit of what he can do.
