He just played basketball and became the chosen one...

Chapter 232 Chapter 231: Even if you put down your posture, you still can’t win? Ajan releases the head coach’s military power this time!

James and Wade were having a men's conversation in the locker room.

Of course, Ajan was very smart to save some face for himself. He emptied the locker room before surrendering to Wade.

Therefore, in the eyes of teammates, James and Wade still have no priority.

This team still doesn't have a clear boss.

Well, if you have to choose a boss, Ajan is undoubtedly the leader of the Heat in terms of comedy skills!

The Heat lost by 22 points, and Bosh was the best performer among the Big Three.

However, the whole world is laughing at Ajan crazily.

The comparison between his arrogant appearance before the game and the final result of the game is simply ridiculous.

This sense of contrast in Azhan cannot be imitated even by top-quality green tea.

On the TNT show, both Barkley and Kenny Smith went crazy laughing.

Buckley was so happy that he danced in the studio:

"LeBron, I admit, your serious look before the game really scared me.

I really didn't expect that the Heat could lose to the Nuggets by so many points!

I've been saying this game won't be more than double digits.

I have to say, LeBron really hit me hard in the face this time!

Hit me hard in the face in a very special way! "

Kenny Smith also echoed: "I told you before, Charles doesn't understand golf at all! His pre-game analysis is just like his golf posture, it's pure chaos! The point difference will not exceed two places. Count? How is this possible!"

After Kenny finished speaking, Buckley slammed the table: "That's enough Kenny! This is the last time you disrespect me!"

The entire studio was quiet for a second. At that moment, many people thought Barkley was really angry.

A few seconds later.

"Hahahahahaha!"

"Charles, no one said that your ability to imitate others is really strong?"

"Don't say that, this is just my parody of LeBron. The real LeBron is ten times funnier than this hahahaha!

I said, as a professional player, if you want to gain respect, you have to rely on your own strength to speak for yourself.

It's impossible to win respect with just your mouth! You lost another 22 points today, how can I respect you? "

James:

Ajan looked at the TNT duo who were laughing at him crazily on TV, but he was not discouraged.

Because he knows very well that he will definitely be able to regain his face in the next game!

Well, maybe the personal data won't look too good.

But at least we can win!

James remembers the faces of Barkley and Kenny Smith laughing at him, and remembers every sentence that was laughed at him on the Internet.

At this time, James seemed to be in an abyss.

There is no boat to cross the vast maze.

He can only save himself.

Even if this requires you to be Pippen, don't hesitate!

And Ajan, who was determined, immediately won a victory for the Heat in G2 of the series!

In G2, the whole world saw the huge changes in James.

The previous Heat actually played somewhat awkwardly. Most of these awkwardnesses come from James.

James can indeed organize, but that comes at the expense of averaging as many as 3.6 turnovers per game. After coming to the Heat, James' turnovers per game directly hit a career high.

James can indeed shoot, but that comes at the expense of occasionally killing himself.

James can defend, but he cannot maintain his defensive enthusiasm on the court because he still needs to devote his energy to the offensive end.

But today, all the awkwardness has disappeared, and all the problems that troubled James have also disappeared.

Because James only does one thing today - defend seriously!

Unless it's a fast break or when Wade and Bosh really can't open up the situation, James will attack.

What Mike Breen said the most today was: "LeBron seems to have completely transformed into Pippen!"

Throughout tonight's game, James was like Pippen, trying his best to deal with the opponent's leading scorer.

Ryan admitted that he was constantly guarded by James.

James' transformation is shocking, because the last thing James can do is play like Pippen.

After all, James is a "smart guy."

He knows very well that in the Heat, he does a lot of defensive things, which can easily affect his "fashion position."

It's like no big boss in the world actually works in the fields by himself.

The bosses only need to deal with the secretaries in the offices that are warm in winter and cool in summer. No, they need to tell the secretaries what needs to be done. There are plenty of people to do the work.

Same goes for basketball games.

Although Jordan is also very good at defense, what he is responsible for most of the time is gorgeous scoring.

The tiring work of defense is usually left to Pippen, the "thug".

As a superstar, Jordan only needs a few defensive highlights occasionally.

Can smart James not know these truths? He knows how to look like a superstar better than anyone!

Otherwise, he will not become the most active 39-year-old player in NBA history.

But today, James unexpectedly played "stupidly".

He actually put down his body, gave up scoring data, and played Pippen next to Wade.

This is simply shocking.

But don't tell me, James may not be a good Jordan, but he is definitely capable of being a good Pippen.

First of all, James is in better shape than Pippen and won't get dizzy or suffer back pain at critical moments.

Pi Er Ye had a lot of bad luck in the 90s. Key matches required him to work harder, as it was either windy or rainy.

In terms of physical fitness, Ajan is undoubtedly historically strong.

At the end of his career, he even evolved his own "intelligent injury" system, which is very easy to use.

In addition, James' physical fitness is more terrifying than Pippen.

And physical fitness is the foundation of defense.

Many people say that Jimmy Butler can perform such a good defensive performance with a wingspan as big as Tyrannosaurus Rex, which shows that physical fitness is not important at all.

Butler's wingspan is indeed short, but you can't ignore his nearly unlimited physical ability.

Physical fitness is also part of physical fitness!

Although his wingspan is short, he can maintain defensive intensity in a fierce battle with the opponent's top player for 40 minutes. This is what is scary about him.

Therefore, James may not be able to play Jordan well, but playing Pippen is more than enough for him!

Today, Ajan's defense was very good.

Ryan, who scored 55 points in the last game like a chopping of melons and vegetables, today, under the full defense of James and the Heat's offensive tactics, his score plummeted by 19 points, "only scoring" 36 points.

Moreover, the hit rate is not even above 45%!

He scored 42 points on 36% shooting, which was actually a pretty good performance. The barrage was placed on Ryan, which was considered a success in restraining him!

Tony Allen can only do this!

James' full-court defense and the Heat's pressure and attack really made Ryan unable to do whatever he wanted!

James' defense is actually not weak if you are willing to work hard.

It can only be said that the number of years in his entire career that he was willing to go all out to defend can be counted on one hand.

After all, as I said before, he is a "smart guy" most of the time.

No matter how good the defense is, it is not as useful as the scoring data.

Don’t you know that after Doncic and Booker scored high scores in the future, many young fans have begun to surpass Kobe.

In the past, you still had to win one championship to surpass Kobe. Now you only need one game to surpass Kobe with 0 championships.

This is enough to illustrate the importance of scoring data. As long as you get high scores, most fans will think you are awesome, even if you don't have a championship or a hard honor.

Therefore, as a smart man, James naturally focuses on offense rather than defense most of the time.

Those famous scenes of Ajan's defense with his arms akimbo are all due to two reasons-the offense is too tired, which leads to a lack of concentration on defense and the desire to get rebounds.

But when he really focuses on defense, his defense is absolutely first-tier.

Tonight, James was completely focused on defense, fully demonstrating his defensive ability.

So, after limiting Ryan, the Heat won G98 95-2 today!

Wade scored 36 points and 8 assists, and the short five Joe lived up to his reputation.

Bosh scored 25 points, avenging his past humiliation.

James only scored 16 points today, but he made no mistakes and his efficiency value was extremely high.

He really became Pippen next to Wade!

At the end of the game, Ryan looked at Arjan in disbelief.

No way, right?

In order to win against me, Azhan was willing to be the little brother of Wade, the wretched man! ?

Ryan was suddenly very moved. It seemed that he had a pivotal position in Ajan's heart!

If the relationship is not at this stage, it is impossible for others to sacrifice for you!

This game really fulfilled a saying that has been widely circulated on the Internet:

"What James needs is not Pippen, James is Pippen, what James needs is Jordan!"

It seems so, indeed!

Don't tell me, after James became Pippen, the Heat really became very troublesome.

In fact, James' performance as Pippen was better than Pippen himself.

Because Pippen couldn't attract the opponent's strongest defender and create easy scoring opportunities for Jordan.

But Ajan is different. He can keep Ryan in front of him and create easy scoring opportunities for Wade.

James is the ultimate Pippen template!

After the game, James hugged Wade and Bosh excitedly.

Finally, he finally won once in the finals!

It turns out that victory in the finals is so sweet!

During the interview, James was so excited that he almost cried.

The news was so loud that those who didn’t know thought James had already won the championship!

“This is the result of our hard work!

Ryan is not invincible.

I'm not the biggest hole in the team either!

We can't wait to get the next win! "

James raised his arms high, he finally became a winner happily!

Damn, yesterday's sentence "This is the last time you disrespect me" should be said today!

Ajan has found the position that suits him best, which is much more comfortable and suitable than the hard-wearing GOAT.

In the original 11-year finals, if James could have had the willingness to be the second-best player, the Heat would not have lost the series in disgrace.

Oh no, Ajan in the 11 Finals was actually a very strong second-in-command, but he was assisting Dirk.

Dirk relies on his historic second-in-command to win. What a single-core player! ?

At this point, even Barkley admitted: "Well, the Miami Heat really look like a super team now!"

But a star in his prime lowered his status in order to take shortcuts to win the championship. Why does Barkley feel that it is difficult to respect Ajan?

Don't worry about lowering yourself or not. A Zhan only knows that he won today. After winning this game, Ajan also floated at the press conference:

"Stop talking about Ryan averaging 40 points per game in the series. My defense will never allow him to do something like that!"

"Well, Ryan is still averaging 45.5 points per game now."

James was stunned for a moment, no, why is it so easy for Ryan to average 40 points per game in the series?

After guarding him like that today, he actually averaged 45 points per game?

It's like you're joking about your high score!

Ajan scratched his head awkwardly:

"The series is not over yet, I mean, when the series is over, there is no way Ryan is averaging 40 points per game!

I know that Dwayne and I both lost to Ryan in the finals before, and we both lost miserably.

But a calm sea cannot produce good sailors.

We have all experienced strong winds and waves, and now we will surely be able to sail to our intended destination! "

Azhan was full of confidence. He could guarantee that what he threw out this time was not a boomerang.

This dart will definitely hit Ryan's eyebrows!

James still knows how to defend after he is fully committed.

He knew very well that no matter how hard he defended, it was impossible to prevent Ryan from scoring more than a dozen points, let alone single digits.

It is even difficult to limit Ryan to only scoring 20 points.

But as long as they can limit Ryan's scoring to about 30 points and lower his shooting percentage below 45%, the Heat can win and Ryan's points per game will also drop!

Average 40 points per game? Are you kidding me?

Which good company can average 40 points per game in a series?

In my defense, this is absolutely impossible!

James is 100% sure this time to knock Ryan off the altar!

On the other side, during the Nuggets' press conference, Ryan's expression became much more serious.

He really didn't expect that James would abandon so many years of "smartness" in order to defeat him.

But Ryan is also very happy. In this history, he finally got Ajan to the position that belongs to him.

But Ryan didn't play basketball just to expose James' true colors.

He not only wants to play James where he belongs, but also wants to still win under such circumstances!

Faced with this defeat, Ryan was also very calm:

"We did lose today, but LeBron is still a million miles away from a real victory."

"Ryan, LeBron said that you will never average 40 points per game in this series. What do you think of his clamor?"

"Well, since when can a player be so proud of limiting his average points per game to no more than 40 in a series? He doesn't even dare to say that he limits me to less than 30 points."

"But LeBron did restrict you today, didn't he? You did lose the game. How can you guarantee that you won't continue to lose in the future?"

Ryan, who was leaning on the back of the bench, straightened up instantly:

"Let me tell you why, because I have never lost in the finals, and they couldn't even win a single victory in the finals!

I dare say that I know how to win in the finals better than they do!

We did lose today, but I must be the one who laughs last!

We will continue to crush the Miami Heat! "

At the end of the press conference, the reporters all looked at each other.

Because Ryan not only said he wanted to win, but also wanted to surpass the Heat with a crushing force!

The unanimous MVP speaks domineeringly.

However, it is easy for the upper lip to touch the lower lip, but it is not so easy to practice.

Crush, then at least it has to be a 4-1 gentleman sweep, right?

In other words, if Ryan wants to keep his word, the Nuggets must win three games in a row!

Judging from the changes in the Heat today, the Nuggets are struggling to win the series, let alone win three games in a row.

After James defends with all his strength, it is impossible to win 22 points in a single game.

The score difference in each game may be between a few points.

Who can guarantee to win every game?

The next day, Ryan's statement "will definitely defeat the Heat" appeared on the headlines of major newspapers.

In James' view, this was just what Ryan said in order to regain face after losing the game.

The outside world also feels that this time it is Ryan's turn to throw the boomerang.

Because even if Ryan wins, if he wins with a total score of 4-2 or 4-3, it cannot be said to be a crushing victory.

Barkley felt that Ryan was infected by James.

He could have said, "We will win in the end," but he instead said, "We are going to crush the Heat."

Doesn't this mean that he has cut off his own escape route?

In G3, Ryan continued to be "restricted".

He only scored 38 points in the game and shot 41% from the field.

But the Nuggets won 101-97!

Matthews scored 5 three-pointers, Lowry scored 3 three-pointers, Love 3, and Millsap 2.

Ryan sent out 13 assists.

This is why the Nuggets can win!

When the Nuggets work hard from the outside, it's hard for them to lose!

Although the Heat uses James to defend Ryan, it is not James' sole defense. James only defends Ryan.

In Spoelstra's view, even James, who is fully defensive, cannot effectively restrict Ryan.

Ryan's 1-point performance in G55 in a single game really left a psychological shadow on Spoelstra.

Therefore, the Heat still used the strategy of pressing and attacking, and James was not dealing with Ryan alone.

And as long as there is a double attack, there will be an opportunity for an opening!

Therefore, although Ryan's scoring did not explode, everyone else in the Nuggets played extremely high offensive efficiency.

The Nuggets' one-star, four-shooter strategy makes the Heat hard to guard against.

Indeed, under the Heat's active defense, a single player's excellent touch is unsustainable.

None of the Nuggets are super shooters like peak Curry and peak Thompson.

But the Nuggets are abnormal. They have too many people who can shoot three-pointers!

Matthews' touch is gone? Lowry on top.

Lowry is starting to get tough? Power forward Millsap can also shoot three-pointers.

Millsap also started missing? It's okay, center Love can throw more accurately than him!

Therefore, the Nuggets' three-pointers are very sustainable.

This is the same as opening a KTV. Why do KTVs always have batch after batch of people asking you to switch? Because it’s impossible for the princess’s relatives to all come on the same day!

It's a small probability event that everyone in the Nuggets' three-point shooting will turn off at the same time. Although "collective inaccuracy" has happened several times during the regular season this season. But there are only a few games in the finals, and the probability of encountering them is really low.

With 37 points and 13 assists, Ryan won his first game in Miami.

Although they won the game, Miami reporters continued to be tough at the post-game press conference:

"Ryan, the way you crush the Heat is to pray that your teammates will feel as good as they did today? In the final analysis, you still failed to break through LeBron's defense, right?"

Ryan laughed angrily:

"Is the data of 37 points and 13 assists embarrassing? Besides, our teammates' opportunities did not appear out of thin air.

The Heat still used a pressing and flanking strategy to deal with me, so my teammates would get opportunities.

Ultimately, it's because the Heat don't dare to use LeBron to guard me alone.

Because Coach Spoelstra knows better than anyone else that if LeBron is allowed to guard me alone, he will be destroyed by me!

Destroyed by my teammates or destroyed by me, the Heat have to choose one, right? "

Ryan's answer simply poked the lungs of the Miami reporter.

The Heat are indeed facing such a dilemma now. At first glance, Ryan seems to be restricted.

But the Nuggets' offense was not restricted.

James was naturally very angry when he couldn't win the game even though he had put down his body.

After he returned to the locker room, he walked directly to Spoelstra:

"Eric, let me defend that bastard alone! I don't need a double attack!"

James was obviously stimulated by Ryan's words. He had already deigned to be Pippen, but Ryan actually said, "If you let LeBron guard me alone, he will be destroyed by me."

Who can feel good about your best efforts but others don't take it seriously?

But Spoelstra felt that it was too risky. Although he lost this game, he only lost by 4 points.

The gap between the two sides is not big.

In G1, Ryan was relieved, but the Heat lost in despair by 22 points.

Therefore, although he knew that Ajan's defense was very strong, Spoelstra still did not dare to try single defense easily.

So if Ryan breaks out again, wouldn't the Heat be like eunuchs visiting a brothel? I have been busy for a long time and it is of no use!

Therefore, Spoelstra smiled and waved his hand:

"You know LeBron, it's not that I don't believe in your one-on-one defense ability. I dare you to ask who in the league doesn't know that you are the best second-hand player in history.

But we have to stay calm and never give Ryan any chance to score high!

Continue to maintain the strategy of oppression and attack, this is our most correct path! "

Spoelstra can say "I don't dare let you defend Ryan alone" so fresh and refined, and he is worthy of being the head coach of the great writer James.

Spoelstra still doesn't believe that the Nuggets' three-pointers in every game are so accurate!

As a result, in G4 of the series, the Heat knelt again!

Today, the Nuggets' three-point shooting percentage did drop a bit.

But it's still not to the point of crazy ironing, it's just a few more irons than the previous game.

With the three-pointers still solid, Jamal Crawford scored 12 points in a row in the third quarter, which directly confused Spoelstra!

You know, Spoelstra used Wade to defend Crawford in the third quarter!

It was indeed difficult for Crawford to get past Wade, but he felt so good today. He made all kinds of pull-ups against the defense, and Wade had no choice but to swallow them!

Crawford broke out in a wave, forcing Wade to change from the first brother of the Heat to the first brother of the Heat!

Although Crawford only played hard for this half of the quarter, he couldn't make any more shots in the fourth quarter.

But the advantage he gained from scoring 12 points in a row, coupled with the Nuggets' continued three-point shooting rate, still allowed the Heat to lose the game by 5 points!

Ryan had 38 points and 10 assists, and his shooting percentage today was limited to a series-low 40%.

But the Nuggets still won the ball!

Spoelstra was convinced. Who could have predicted that the opponent's sixth man would break out in the third quarter!

Wade and James are definitely in love. Wade saw that James was being sprayed too badly during this period, so he stepped forward to "pull" James and help James attract some firepower.

No, there are more people online criticizing Wade's defense than James!

The Heat are only one point away from victory every time, but they add up bit by bit. It's fucking match point again!

Leading 3-1, Ryan was not too excited.

He still said the same thing:

“There’s not much to say about this game, but as long as the Heat don’t let LeBron guard me, our threes will keep punishing them.

I have said before that I will let the world see how good Lowry and Millsap are.

I've said it before, Wesley Matthews is more than just an undrafted player.

I also said that Kevin Love has unlimited potential.

So why are you surprised? I have already told you how good they are.

Their three-point shooting ability absolutely kills games.

Keep double-teaming me if that makes it easier for my teammates to score. "

James is completely anxious now. Winning the championship as the second child is already James' biggest concession.

But if I am the second best and finish second overall, then I will be worse than Pippen!

He is still very confident in his defense. He feels that he has no problem guarding Ryan alone.

The reason for the current situation is simply that the rookie coach Spoelstra was too indecisive.

I locked down Ryan, and my teammates locked in the Nuggets' three-pointer.

Isn’t this easy to win?

Why not practice such a simple thing?

After the last conversation with Spoelstra failed, James expressed his wishes directly in front of the media this time:

“To be honest, we should change our strategy!

For two consecutive games, we lost in almost the same way!

I can defend Ryan alone, 100%!

If they don't attack blindly, the Nuggets won't get so many three-point opportunities.

There is definitely something wrong with our strategy, and we have to go back and discuss this matter!

Of course, the game strategy is set by the head coach.

I'm not the kind of player who interferes with the head coach's tactics.

I just expressed my thoughts. How to do it depends on Coach Spoelstra's deployment. "

Ajan's wave of weirdness made Spoelstra want to give him a DNP directly!

Sure enough, the media started to make a big fuss:

"LeBron is dissatisfied with the team's tactics!"

"The informant Ryan planted in Miami was actually Spoelstra?"

"The Heat want to reverse course, they just need to make a few changes!"

"With the most luxurious lineup in history, but losing the game? Spoelstra is fired!"

All these reports put a lot of pressure on Spoelstra.

Ajan's sudden change of events has unknowingly put the blame on Spoelstra's head!

I thought that the highest level of blame-shifting was to throw the ball to a teammate.

I didn’t expect that even if you weren’t there, he would be able to dump the blame on you!

Spoelstra was angry, and the point of his anger was not that James questioned himself. Of course James can question himself, but he shouldn't say this kind of thing directly to the media or outsiders!

Under normal circumstances, any conflicts or differences within the team will be digested within the team first.

If it really can't be solved, then talk about it in front of the media.

And to reveal these things in front of the media is basically equivalent to tearing oneself apart!

What can Spoelstra do now?

The next game is a life and death battle. If he continues to press and attack and loses, the whole world will regard him as a sinner.

If he doesn't want to take the blame, he has to change his strategy and let James defend Ryan alone.

James is forcing him to do this!

Spoelstra was very angry. He didn't expect James to stab himself at such a moment of life and death!

James was indeed teasing Spoelstra. In fact, he wanted Spoelstra to be fired on the spot because of this incident!

Then let Riley take over the team!

Spoelstra's position as coach is already full of controversy. A third-year rookie coach whose best record was only in the first round of the playoffs has to coach three top ten players in the NBA's MVP rankings. Their status is fundamental. not equal.

Moreover, it has been widely rumored that Spoelstra is likely to become the next Van Gundy. Riley will come out at any time to topple him. Spoelstra is just a "puppet".

In fact, this is not a rumor, because Riley did promise when recruiting James that if the team has major problems, he will coach for the last time.

This is also the reason why James dares to openly challenge the authority of the head coach.

James has never released his military power in this history, but he is trying to force the head coach to give up his military power!

It can only be said that Ajan's ability in locker room struggle is stronger than his ability on the basketball court.

The angry Spoelstra directly questioned James face to face after he returned to the locker room:

"Why do you want to talk about tactical arrangements in front of the media?"

James didn't take it seriously and didn't take this rookie coach seriously at all:

"Then what else would I be talking about? About my dinner? We are behind 1 to 3, coach!"

"If you have any dissatisfaction with me, you shouldn't."

But before Spoelstra finished speaking, James roared:

"I told you, we're already down 1-3 in the finals, Eric!

We have to make changes, and it turns out that your approach simply doesn't work!

We have lost two games in a row. If we lose another game, we will become the laughing stock of the whole world!

I don’t care if you like to be a clown, but I’m not in the habit of being a clown!

I will defend Ryan alone in the next game, no need to discuss!

Dwayne, what do you say? "

James is smart, he has always been smart.

At this time, he needs someone to stand with him.

So he deliberately asked Wade.

How can Wade choose? As the boss of the locker room, he didn’t want the team to have internal strife at this time, so he told Spoelstra in a comforting tone:

"We can try one-on-one defense, and we should try one-on-one defense."

Spoelstra was desperate and had no one to support him.

Although he later became the Heat's meritorious coach, Spoelstra's status is actually more humble now than people imagined.

In the original history, during the era of the Heat's Big Three, Spoelstra was deliberately bumped on the shoulder by James, and Wade yelled on the spot that he "disappeared from my eyes immediately."

This may be the most humble championship coach in history.

During this period, he did not have much prestige in the locker room.

Therefore, Wade must be more towards Ajan.

Spoelstra even wanted to quit, but as a head coach, he was ignored by two leading stars. Who the hell can stand this cowardice?

At this point, Riley walked into the locker room.

As the general manager, he rarely directly enters the locker room to intervene in the football team's affairs this season.

But now, the team's internal strife was hyped by the media during the finals, so he had to step in to control the situation.

Riley glanced at James, Wade and Spoelstra. James and Wade were standing closer to each other, which allowed him to see at a glance how bad Spoelstra's situation was.

Riley's eyes stayed on James. Even the fortune teller admitted that James was more capable than he thought.

He knew James' purpose. He knew that James was deliberately creating chaos to make Spoelstra relinquish his military power.

James is not a pure professional player, that guy has too many scheming ideas!

Spoelstra wanted to quit on the spot, but before he could say anything, Riley called him out:

"Eric, let's talk alone!"

Returning to the general manager's office, Riley, who looked like Al Pacino with his slicked back hair, put his elbows on the table and clasped his hands to support his chin: "There is whiskey in the wine cabinet, if you need it."

"I quit Riley, I'm not the fucking head coach! I'm just a puppet!

The whole world knows that guarding against Ryan alone is suicide!

That's a monster who averaged 40 points per game in the series and 35 points per game in the regular season!

Would you have used anyone to guard Jordan alone? That's simply impossible!

As a result, LeBron actually forced me like that!

I quit. Anyway, LeBron’s purpose is to force you out.

OK, I lost, I admit that I lost. He won and I stepped aside. "

Riley cast a cold look at the pitiful Spoelstra:

"Take that bullshit back before I get really mad.

There is only one person who can decide whether you are the head coach of this team, and that is me.

And now, we still need you.

Imagine how fucking ridiculous it would be for a team to fire its own head coach during the Finals, and how much of a hit it would be to morale.

That means we collapsed before we even got to the end!

There was no way we could do something like this, there was no way we would surrender before losing the game.

So, you don’t have to worry about getting up the next day and getting fired.

I assure you that your handsome position is stable!

After all, I have the final say on this team!

but"

Spoelstra knew Riley would say a "but."

"But we really have to change our defensive strategy, and I know you don't believe that three-pointers and shooting can kill games.

But the Nuggets' three-pointers are historic. No team has ever hit three-pointers like them before.

The theory that you can't win a championship by shooting is about to be overturned by this team.

So, you might actually try to have LeBron guard Ryan alone.

LeBron's talent is second only to Ryan and Jordan, and his single defense is not bad.

Besides, do we still have a choice?

If we lose another game, all of us will be severely laughed at by the outside world.

Since you can't win with your method, it's the last game anyway, so just try single defense!

What if it works?

That's better than going to die knowing you're going to lose!

Indeed, it is impossible for me to send someone to guard Jordan alone.

But Ryan.

At this point, Riley paused and gritted his teeth: "Ryan is not Jordan after all!"

"So, Eric, I want to see you become a championship coach more than anyone. I'm not saying your previous strategy was wrong, I just want to give you some advice, that's all.

The final decision on tactics still rests with you. "

After Riley finished speaking, he waved his hand: "You can go back to the locker room, and I will talk to LeBron later. Don't worry, I won't let the locker room collapse."

Spoelstra stood up and waved his hand: "No, you don't need to talk to LeBron."

"What do you mean? At least you made it clearer to me, Eric."

Si Bo sighed:

“I’m going to tell LeBron, let him guard Ryan next game.

Maybe you guys are right, maybe LeBron can do it.

Maybe Ryan is really not Jordan.

As you said, it's the last desperate move. "

Spoelstra still admires Riley, after all, to him, Riley is a bole.

In 1995, Spoelstra was just a small editor editing game videos in a dark basement.

It was Riley's appreciation that allowed him to be promoted to assistant coach in 1997, while continuing to serve as the video editing instructor.

In 2001, he was promoted to assistant coach and scout.

In 2006, Spoelstra was already the chief assistant coach and began to be responsible for the team's daily training and tactical design. If Riley is ejected or unable to participate in the game for any reason, Spoelstra becomes the team's acting head coach.

Until the end, Spoelstra changed from a small editor to a coach standing in front of the stage.

His career promotions have been accompanied by Riley's promotions.

And every time he messed up in his new position, Riley encouraged him instead of blaming him.

A soldier dies for his bosom friend. Spoelstra respects Riley and is naturally willing to accept Riley's advice.

He couldn't accept James telling him what to do, but if it was Riley, it would be completely different.

Even if he still felt that the suggestion was unsafe.

After returning to the locker room, Riley also told James:

"Next game, you defend Ryan alone! There is no problem between us!"

Azhan laughed excitedly, "Young man, I am a professional in releasing military power!"

What are you playing with me for?

Finally, James got the chance to defend Ryan alone!

In his opinion, the biggest reversal in the history of the NBA Finals is about to take place!

James is still having fun.

He had no idea that he had developed a single-defense strategy after struggling for a long time.

What darkness and shame it would allow him to escape into!

People will soon know that defending Ryan alone is the stupidest strategy.

People will soon know that James has been asking for trouble after working hard for so long!

Ryan kept deliberately mentioning "James dare not guard me alone", which was deliberately irritating Ajan's nerves.

Arjan thought his fight was won.

Little did he know, he was just being led by Ryan.
