In the regular season, the Cavaliers' lineup was once the envy of the league, and the Cleveland people even thought they had found the winning code of James.
"The great LeBron and our players are the best Cavaliers ~!" That's what Cavaliers coach said to reporters when he set a team record of 39-2 at home.
At that time, Brown was full of exultation. At that time, Brown was considered as one of the candidates for the best coach of the season. Even after Jackson won the award again, some people regretted that if the 75 win of the Lakers was not too bad, Mike Brown would be the most suitable person for the best coach.
He certainly has the qualification. After the disappointing 2007-08 season, no one expected that the Cavaliers would return to people's attention in this way this season. The terrible home victory rate, the title of one of the most evil home courts in the league, the soaring team history, the best record, and the explosive growth of various data
It's the best word to describe the Cavaliers in the East this season.
"Although the Cavaliers entered the finals, it was not until this season that James led this team to completely conquer the East. James and the Cavaliers' outstanding performance may mark the beginning of an era. Because the emperor is no longer alone, he has Morris Williams, who has entered the all star for the first time, and a group of role players who are not outstanding but perform their duties. It is said that the back of the tree is good to enjoy the cool, as long as the knight can keep the emperor, there will even be strong reinforcements to hold the thighs. Although the playoffs haven't started yet, at least in the regular season, James and the Cavaliers have won the present and vaguely won the future
This is the comment ESPN gave to the Cavaliers this season before the start of the playoffs. In addition to James, ESPN gave high praise to other players in the Cavaliers, believing that they may be the most suitable player for James in the world, and also gave a high evaluation of their future.
The Cleveland media also inflated, "even if LBJ can't get the championship trophy this year, then the championship trophy next year will definitely be reserved for him!"
Cleveland Sports Weekly has made no secret of its ideas. They have coveted the championship for a long time.
"The Cavaliers are going to win this year." James spoke to the media after the Eastern Conference semi-finals, when they were the most powerful team in the East, both offensive and defensive, beating the hawks and pistons to no avail.
James and his teammates played extremely well, scoring the best bench in the East, when the Cavaliers were the biggest favorite in the East.
However, all of this, in the evening suddenly stop!
"We need to sum up the game, we need more people to come out and score, we have a lot to do and we still have a chance to bring the game back to Cleveland This is what Mike Brown said in an interview after the fiasco. There is no pride in the words.
James went back to the dressing room without saying a word. His face was full of disappointment. After losing the game, the Cavaliers had to face the situation of being behind for the first time in the playoffs.
And even more despairing is that the Cavaliers in the regular season were touted to heaven in the reserves under the magic of steel defense under the complete failure!
This game, the outside world saw James crazy score and non-stop shots, but he had to do so, the main reason is that his teammates can not give him enough firepower support, yes, the Cavaliers' shooting rate is only 37.2%, 3-point shooting rate is lower to 19.2%, except LeBron, the whole team has only deronte West 12 points and mauwilhelm MS had 15 points and two scored in double.
As for other people, especially the inside line was completely smashed by magic, big Z only 9 points, Valerio only 4 points, Big Ben also only 4 points, three people have not Howard, one person scored more, Warcraft in their head arbitrarily smashed, 23 points, 20 rebounds, 5 blocks let their shortcomings exposed.
When it comes to Howard's kind of insider, they're a real chicken.
So after this game, the outside discussion is no longer whether the Cavaliers can reach the finals, but how the Knights can pass the magic test, and the chance of magic entering the final will surpass the Cavaliers for the first time after this game.
After watching the game, Jifeng said it was almost the same as what he expected. As he said, Cavaliers fans are really too optimistic.
However, Ji Feng did not continue to sprinkle salt on the Internet for Cavaliers fans. It was not Ji Feng's kindness. The main reason was that the salt was sprinkled by magic. In two days' time, there might be cumin and chili noodles. Jifeng would not join in the fun.
……
On May 24, the Lakers continued their fourth game against the Nuggets, which was their first match point.
The atmosphere at Denver's home court is a bit solemn and stirring, because regardless of the game's win or lose, the game at Pepsi Center is likely to be the Nuggets' last home game of the season.
No matter how loyal the fans are, they will not think that the Nuggets have a chance to complete a big reversal. To some extent, it is more difficult than winning the championship, because the championship occurs every year, but this situation has not happened once in decades.So the home fans also played a big banner in the stands: fight for honor!
However, although the Nuggets are not optimistic about the reversal and promotion, the Nuggets are still going all out in this game. After all, no one is willing to be swept out, especially in the Western games. Being swept is absolutely a disgrace.
And the Lakers are actually more passive than the outside world think, the reason is physical problems, after the last game, Bynum looked very tired. He even played a little bit to replenish his energy, and Fisher's knee was a little swollen after three high-intensity games, which added to the uncertainty of the game.
In order to protect the two generals, Jackson changed the starting for the first time, and Farmar and Radmanovic entered the starting line.
This also led to the opening state of the Lakers is not very good, the control of rebounds is not satisfactory, and the defense is also a lot of loopholes.
When Martin's jump shot and slam dunk led the Nuggets to attack, the Lakers fell into the dilemma of only two out of the first nine shots; Nei Nei and Billups rose points one after another, and the Nuggets were 12-5 ahead after Jones dunked.
But the Nuggets also have eye-catching problems. Anthony lost all seven shots in the first half of the quarter, and was sent off in the third game, which led to the loss. Although the Nuggets led the way in the latter part of the first quarter, after Anthony's eighth shot, Kobe hit the jump shot continuously and hit the basket successfully. At the end of the first quarter, the Lakers chased to 19-22.
In the following 2 and 3 quarters, Jr. Smith started to work, and the Nuggets hit a 15-2 climax in the second quarter. However, the problems of the Los Angeles still remained unchanged and the number of irons was increased. Although Ji Feng started to make efforts in the third quarter, he got 9 points in a single quarter, and at the end of the third quarter, he got 19 points and 9 assists, which helped the Lakers maintain the point difference and not be widened to the point where they could not catch up, After all, Gasol couldn't resist the Nuggets' performance alone. At the end of the third quarter, the Lakers continued to lag behind the Nuggets 66-77.
In the most intense fourth quarter, Bynum scored two goals in the beginning of the last quarter, but Billups made another effort to lay up Bynum and hit a long-range shot. After craiza also hit three points, the Nuggets completed the 12-3 offensive and led 89-73.
The scene is still turbulent, Smith was judged technical fouls, Bynum ferocious interception, Anderson was judged malicious fouls, the situation was out of control for a time, and then the game agitation content continued, Phil Jackson was judged to delay the game, Anthony and Martin were successively judged technical fouls, the fouls continued, both sides were frequent free throws.
However, in the end, Smith scored three points in a row, and the Nuggets expanded their advantage to win. In the end, the Nuggets won 120-101.
