NBA Old Age Star System

Chapter 199 "Big Fudge" Cole

Soon, the third quarter ended, and the score came to 90-82, and the Cavaliers temporarily led the Warriors by 8 points.

The biggest point difference in the third quarter was 15 points. After the Warriors replaced Barnes, it was not easy to catch up with 7 points in only half a quarter.

After all, whether it is the Warriors or the Cavaliers, they are all recognized championship-level teams.

During the intermission, many media cameras were aimed at the Warriors bench.

Cole was explaining with a tactical board, but Barnes sat on the bench beside him, his head bowed.

This scene was captured by many shots at the scene, and Curry came to pat Barnes and called Barnes over.

On the Cavaliers side, Tyronn Lue encouraged everyone's emotions while arranging the lineup.

Dellavedova, Su Tian, ​​jr Smith, Love, Mozgov.

Soon, the intermission ended and the fourth quarter began.

The Warriors are still behind, and Cole dare not replace too many main players.

Take it out, Livingston, Clay, Barnes, Green, Azeri.

The first ball was given to the Cavaliers. Dellavedova took the ball to the frontcourt and passed the ball directly to Su Tian.

In fact, Cole also wanted to take Clay down to rest for a while, but now the whole league knows that Su Tian in the fourth quarter is not easy to mess with. In the Warriors, only Clay and Su Tian are the most suitable matchups.

Although Iguodala and Green can also defend, they are all new forces to deal with James. To deal with Su Tian, ​​who will deal with James.

Facing Clay's defense, Su Tian called Love for a pick-and-roll. With the help of the pick-and-roll, he broke through directly, easily broke through Clay's defense, and shot a mid-range jumper.

Swah——

Su Tian's middle distance is still very stable.

92-82
The ball was switched and it was the Warriors' turn to attack. Livingston took the ball to the frontcourt and passed the ball directly to Green who came to respond.

Green got the ball and didn't rush to attack. Instead, after Livingston brought Dellavedova to the low post, he passed the ball directly to Livingston again.

Livingston got the ball and was about to hit Dellavedova with his back. JR Smith on the side followed Tylen Lue's tactical arrangement and chose to let go of Barnes.Directed at Livingston to double-team.

Upon seeing this, Livingston passed the ball directly to Barnes who was emptied. Barnes should have made a three-pointer directly after receiving the ball, but Barnes felt guilty after the previous incident.

So he took two steps forward and made a long-range two-point shot.

But at the moment Barnes shot, Su Tian's supplementary defense also came at the same time.

boom--

Barnes also hit the iron with two points.

Love took the rebound, and Su Tian turned around and ran straight away.

Love passed the ball directly in front of Su Tian. Su Tian accelerated to get the ball, came to the basket and directly collected the ball and took off. He dunked successfully with both hands.

94-82
Cole kept shaking his head on the sidelines when he saw that Barnes missed both points.

The ball was given to the Warriors again.Livingston came to the frontcourt with the ball and still passed the ball to Green.

Clay led Su Tian to run all over the field, passing through two pick-and-rolls in a row, and finally got a chance for the third time.

Green saw the timing and passed the ball directly.

Clay received the ball and made a three-pointer directly.

Swah——

The Warriors also scored their first goal in the fourth quarter.

94-85
The ball is switched, and it's the Cavaliers' turn to attack.

Su Tian came to the frontcourt with the ball by himself, still calling Love for a pick-and-roll.

But this time, Su Tian broke through and was double-teamed by Clay and Green.

Although the double-teaming between the two came suddenly, Su Tian responded in time and passed the ball accurately to Love who was emptied.

Love didn't need to adjust at all to catch the ball, and just shot a three-pointer directly.

Swah——

Love also hit a three-pointer.

97-85
After several consecutive rounds, the point difference could not be drawn in, and Cole called a timeout.

Tyronn Lue knew that after this timeout, the Warriors would come up with the full main lineup, so they didn't hide it, and also took out the full main lineup.

Owen, Su Tian, ​​James, Love, Thompson.

Soon, the timeout ended, and as expected, the Warriors came up with all the main players except Barnes.

Curry, Klay, Iguodala, Green, Azeri.

On the first ball back on the court, Green passed the ball to assist Curry and scored a layup.

Immediately afterwards, the Cavaliers did not give the Warriors a chance to breathe. James hit Iguodala's defense with the ball and assisted Thompson to score a dunk.

Although a goal was scored, the Warriors were very fast and quickly sent the baseline ball, trying to grab one.

Green passed the ball directly from the baseline to Curry who ran to the midfield. Curry caught the ball and chased him directly to score a three-pointer.

During this period of time, the rhythm on both sides was very fast, but obviously, this rhythm was not what Tyronn Lue wanted.

So after the Cavaliers served the ball again, James took the initiative to hold the ball and began to stabilize the rhythm and situation.

In the next few rounds, neither side took advantage of anything, but time passed little by little.

The less time, the better for the Cavaliers who are still in the lead.

Until 3 minutes before the end of the game, the Cavaliers still maintained an 8-point lead.

The Warriors have always insisted on the presence of the main players, and Tyronn Lue did not dare to make a big deal, and did not dare to win any of the main players.

Curry came to the front court with the ball again. Facing the panting Irving, Curry directly started singles. After continuous dribbling, he quickly exploded, broke through Irving's defense, and went straight to the basket.

James let go of Iguodala to help defend, and Thompson also let go of Speights and retreated to the basket.

Facing the double-teaming of the Cavaliers, Curry passed the ball directly and quickly to Iguodala outside the three-point line.

Iguodala's three-pointers are actually not stable, but this kind of veteran is expensive at critical moments, such as now.

Iguodala received the pass and made a three-pointer directly.

I saw the basketball go straight to the basket, huh——

The basketball goes straight into the net.

There are still 5 points difference.

The possession of the ball was changed, and Irving slowly took the ball to the frontcourt and passed the ball directly to James.

Facing Iguodala, James did not rush to launch an offense. Instead, after spending a while, he called Thompson for a pick-and-roll and used the pick-and-roll to start a breakthrough.

After Iguodala struggled through the pick-and-roll, he tried to chase James. At the same time, Speights also double-teamed James.

James saw an opportunity for Su Tian to run out of the three-point line, so he passed the ball directly.

Su Tian didn't adjust when he caught the ball, he just jumped up and made a three-pointer with a drift.

Swah——

Su Tian made a direct three-pointer.

The point difference returned to 8 points again.

Faced with such a thrilling scene, the fans and audience at the scene had already shouted, and the atmosphere at the scene was very impatient.

But the Cavaliers have James and Su Tian who is cheating. The overall rhythm has not been deviated by the Warriors, and they persisted until the end of the game.

And this 8-point difference persisted until the end of the game.

At the end of the game, the Cavaliers successfully won the game 118-110 and won the battle of Tianwangshan in the finals!
The big score came to 3-2, and the Cavaliers successfully won the match point. Not only that, but the next game will be the Cavaliers' home court. The chances of the Cavaliers winning the championship have increased significantly!

本场比赛，詹姆斯全场拿到34分13篮板7助攻3抢断3盖帽！被评为全场最佳毫无疑问。

Su Tian also scored 25 points, 12 assists, 5 rebounds, 2 steals and 1 block. He was the second-best player on the Cavaliers, especially in the fourth quarter, which was impressive.

欧文则是拿到21分3助攻2篮板1抢断，是骑士队得分上20的第三人。

These three got 80 points in total!Is the main reason the Cavaliers won.

For the Warriors, Curry scored 25 points, 7 assists and 4 rebounds. Although his performance is not bad, it is indeed a bit behind the aura of the regular season MVP.

Clay scored 15 points, 1 assist and 3 rebounds. Clay was basically marked by Su Tian throughout the game, and he was obviously restricted.

In other words, throughout the series, Clay was under the shadow of Su Tian and failed to play the power of the Warriors' No. [-] scorer.

Another person worthy of attention for the Warriors is Barnes in this field.

全场拿到5分3篮板1助攻，三分球6中1。

Barnes' devastating performance became a vent for the fans, and he also became the blamer for the team's losses.

Although the big score is only 3-2, it is very likely to make it to the tiebreaker, but the entire team atmosphere of the Warriors has collapsed.

The Internet is overwhelming, full of condemnation of Barnes.

"Harrison is a fuck, the Warriors trade him!" - IP: San Francisco
"Hahaha, thank you Barnes so much! The Cavaliers should have your share of the championship ring!" - IP: Cleveland

"Barnes is a waste. It is because of him that Curry and Clay have been double-teamed, and they can't play their full strength!" - IP: San Francisco
"I'm afraid that without Barnes, Curry and Klay wouldn't be able to play any outstanding performances, right? Have you ever heard of a superstar who can't break the double team?" ——IP: Los Angeles
"Why, seeing us reach the finals, are you sour? Los Angeles continues to sink, your infighting is not over yet!" ——IP: San Francisco
"Are we a giant? We can rise in minutes!" - IP: Los Angeles
"So you will only rob other people's star players!" - IP: Orlando
-

Regardless of the strife online, at least the Warriors are indeed dangerous now.

On June 6, the Warriors head to Cleveland as a whole.

On the plane to Cleveland, Barnes sat alone in a corner with headphones on and his eyes closed, refusing to communicate with the outside world.

"Stephen, Harrison, is he really okay?" Clay sat next to Curry and whispered.

"I don't know, but I think the coach will take care of it." Curry was not sure, but after the coach found Barnes to talk to him last time, Barnes regained his fighting spirit.

Although I still haven't played well, but at least I have fighting spirit, so I can play better and better.

But until the Warriors landed in Cleveland, Cole never found Barnes to talk to, and Barnes has always been in a listless state.

Kerr didn't come to Barnes' room until the evening, after the Warriors made arrangements at the hotel.

"Harrison, won't you let me in and have a sit?" Cole stood in front of the door and said with a smile.

"Coach, please come in." Although Barnes was very angry, he still maintained basic courtesy.

"Harrison, maybe you don't understand me, or in other words, you didn't understand what I mean from the beginning." Cole just sat down here and went straight to the point.

"Oh, understand you? Coach, sorry, I can't understand you."

"I know, Harrison, I didn't lie to you, but you haven't fully believed me yet. The team really cultivated you as the core, otherwise why would Iguodala be an All-Star as a substitute for you? "

"You have to know that although Iguodala is not young, if he has enough possessions, he is still an All-Star, but the team still insists on letting you start. This is exactly what the team expects from you. "

"Also, although your performance in the last game was a disaster, our coaching staff did not give up on you."

Cole paused, and continued: "Harrison, the coach and the team haven't given up on you yet, how can you give up on yourself first?"

Hearing this sentence, Barnes froze for a moment, as if, really?
"Okay, Harrison, think about it for yourself next time, by the way, I forgot to tell you, the reason why the team is not in a hurry to sign you is not because they don't trust you, on the contrary, they trust you too much Yes, the team management firmly believes that you can win the championship! You must know that the contracts of championship members and non-championship members are different!"

After Cole finished speaking, he walked out of Barnes' room directly.

Barnes froze in the room for a long time, and thought about it for a long time.

In the end, Barnes, who was thinking hard all night, finally made a decision, took out his mobile phone and sent Cole a text message.

"Coach, thank you, I understand!"

At this time, Cole was not asleep either, and was still discussing tactics with the coaching staff, when suddenly the cell phone beeped.

Cole picked up the phone and glanced at it, with a slight smile on his lips.

"What's wrong, Steve."

"Nothing, I'm just proud of my mouth and brain!"

"???"

Soon, the time will come to June 6, and the sixth game of the finals will start soon!
The current president of the team joked, and the O'Brien Cup also came to the scene, as well as Bill Russell.

Before the game, James also specifically said a few words to Mr. Russell.

Su Tian was on the sidelines, doing warm-up, while looking at the Warriors at halftime.

Su Tian found that Barnes not only regained his vitality, but also cooperated with his teammates talking and laughing.

Of course, it was not only Barnes, but also Clay who caught Su Tian's attention.

You know, this is g6!

Facing g6 soup, Su Tian had to guard against it, and had to be careful.

Soon, with the referee's whistle, players from both sides entered the field.

On the Warriors side, they directly gave up the regular starting lineup and came up with five small lineups at the beginning, Curry, Clay, Iguodala, Barnes, and Green.

The Cavaliers did not change their starting lineup because of the Warriors, Irving, Su Tian, ​​James, Love, Thompson.

Although Thompson has no three-point ability, Thompson's athletic ability is not weak, and he also has a certain ability to protect the frame and rebound, which is currently indispensable for the Cavaliers.

Soon, the referee threw the basketball in his hand, Thompson grabbed it first, and Irving received the basketball.

Owen got the ball and slowly advanced with the ball.

The sixth game of the finals officially started!
