Chapter 363 Boss Joe With Different Positions
"Stephen Curry scored 21 points in the last quarter, Sheldon played sick and scored another 31 points, the Bobcats reversed and won!"
"You can win even if you are sick, and the Big Three will lose to the Bobcats again!"
"21 points in the last quarter, 39 points in the game, a battle of super gods for the second-year point guard!"
"..."
After the game, in addition to mocking the Big Three, media reports mostly praised Curry.
In this game, Curry did play the best performance of his career so far. Three consecutive three-pointers in the final quarter directly killed the game.
The performance of 21 points in a single quarter is also tied with Kobe, entering the top ten in the single quarter scoring list of the playoffs.
It can be said that Curry in this game is indeed worthy of praise.
There are also a small number of expert reporters who have blown Li Ke.
"There is no doubt that Stephen Curry's 21 points in the final quarter helped the Bobcats seal the victory, but the Bobcats' real counterattack started with Shelton's defense."
"He first withstood the impact of Dwyane Wade with supplementary defense and defense, and then used single defense to completely lock LeBron James..."
"Sheldon in the final quarter made a Dpoy-level defense. The Bobcats' reversal started from his successful defense."
That's it from Bill Simmons' column.
Then ESPN expert Mark Stein expressed a little surprise in the program: "At the end of the second quarter and at the end of the third quarter, there were two key singles, Dpoy-level defense in the fourth quarter, 31 points, 6 rebounds, 5 assists, 2 steals and 1 block. Who would have thought that this is the performance of a player who just recovered from a cold and high fever?"
"After the game, we heard Shelton stand in front of LeBron James and Dwyane Wade and spout those two trash words."
"While these two words of trash talk were harsh, we didn't smell the slightest bit of gunpowder because LeBron and Dwyane were powerless to refute..."
"Before the game, they laughed about Sheldon's high fever, but they still lost the game."
"As Sheldon said, the Big Three are weak!"
……
The Eastern Conference finals will soon move to Cleveland, and the G3 game——
Li Ke, who has fully recovered, should have worked hard, but failed to find the position of the center basket of Quicken Loans.
Curry's state is also not as good as G2, all kinds of blacksmithing.
Captain Jack and Jamison tried their best, but what they can do is just icing on the cake.
For the Cavaliers, the Big Three are still the same as G1:
LeBron was lost under Li Ke's iron wall, and Wade and Bosh made up for the lack.
In this way, the Cavaliers who returned to the home court pulled back a game.
G4 two days apart——
Li Ke returned and scored 34 points, 8 rebounds, 5 assists and 2 steals.
Plus Curry's 27 points, Captain Jack's 21 points, and Jamison's 19 points.
Bobcats quad-core together scored as many as 101 points, the away game, the Bobcats aggressively defeated the Cavaliers.
In this way, with a total score of 3 to 1, the Bobcats got their match point.
"In the away game, the Bobcats' offense completely defeated the Cavaliers' defense. They scored 134 points..."
"At the same time, they also got the match point in the Eastern Conference Finals. They are only one victory away, and they will defeat the Cavaliers and advance to the Finals!"
……
After G1 and G2, the public opinion circles were not too surprised by the Bobcats' victory.
Even so, after the Bobcats won the match point, some people were still sighing——
"Who remembers the grand occasion when LeBron James, Dwyane Wade and Chris Bosh announced their team-up last summer? Almost everyone thought that the league was over!"
"But now, the Big Three are about to fall in the Eastern Conference finals, and they can't even make it to the finals..."
There are also people who are excited--
"I hate teamwork, so when the Celtics formed the Big Three in 07, I hated it."
"This time the Cavaliers' top three giants are even more so. Chris Bosh and Dwyane Wade left their home team freely and joined the Cavaliers. This is simply destroying the ecology of the NBA!"
"Fortunately, we still have the Charlotte Bobcats. They beat the Celtics in 08. This year, they will beat the Cavaliers again."
"Perhaps, we can call them: Big Three killers!"
……
Another two days later, it is possible to completely determine the outcome of G5.
Before the game, the Cavaliers did not admit defeat.
Lebron: "This is our first season together. Our lineup has undergone too many changes. We have been trying and adapting. The same is true for the playoffs. G1, G2, we are testing, G3 and G4, we are also looking for the right way to win..."
"The Bobcats got the match point, but it's only the match point. We still have a chance. In the next game, we will end the trial and go all out!"
Wade: "Being behind is not terrible. I still remember that in 06, my team and I fell behind 0 to 2, but in the end, we completed the reversal. Regarding the reversal, I have rich experience, and this time is the same!"
Bosh: "..."
The three giants spoke separately, and Li Ke was watching the show on Shanmao's side.
Le Bang's speech made Li Ke look confused. He co-authored the series and played four games. You have been testing?
It was Wade's speech that woke Li Ke up a bit.
Wade is good at reversing, Rivers is good at being reversed, coupled with the possible field control in the league...
This G5 is really a bit dangerous.
……
It wasn't until the match started that Li Ke realized that his worries were completely unnecessary.
Lebron still couldn't break through Li Ke's defense head-on. He could only use the top of the arc as a pivot. If he wanted to score, he could only steal or use his ass to point at Li Ke.
Wade is as stable as ever. This season is his final peak. Counting G5, the Eastern Conference Finals has a total of 5 games. Among the Big Three, he is the only one who has really played his worth.
The wave giant is as unstable as ever. He was able to score 26 points and 10 rebounds in the previous game, playing the giant's worth.
In this game, he was completely lost and couldn't find his place...
The referee didn't take a shot either, as if the league didn't have the habit of controlling the field at all.
Many people are even surprised by this, because the league usually controls the field in the playoffs.
Especially in the Eastern and Western finals and the finals, every extra game is worth tens of millions of dollars in income.
But in this game, the referee did not control the field.
Not only did they lose control, but the star whistle that Lebron and Wade deserved also disappeared.
You know, the referee is Tony Brothers, another famous referee known as Lebon's queen referee.
After a game, Lebron is already doubting his life.
Dan Crawford, Tony Brothers, and a few regular refs like Mike Callahan, Scott Foster, Sean Wright...
These were all friends before?Why is it like this now?
At the end of the game, live broadcaster Reggie Miller chanted:
"It's over, it's over!"
"The Bobcats defeated the Cavaliers and advanced to the Finals!"
"Sheldon Lee deserves to be the Chosen One, he once again led the team to the finals!"
Lebron crossed his hips. When those referee friends were not on his side, he felt for the first time that the title of Chosen Son really didn't belong to him.
The game is finally over.
The series is also over...
Accidentally or not, the Big Three all ended the season, ending an unsuccessful season.
After G2 swearing face-to-face, Li Ke no longer has the idea of standing in front of Lebron and Wade.
He just pointed at the camera of the post-match interview amidst the cheers of the audience, and responded to the remarks of Le Bon and Wade before the game.
"This is my turf, they don't have the ability to win in my turf!"
This sentence is like a reprint of This is my house. Li Ke said it extremely domineeringly, and the cheers at the Time Warner Center became more and more enthusiastic.
……
The Cavaliers quickly withdrew from the Time Warner Center, and no matter what they thought of the loss, one thing was for sure—this season they were a failure, a complete failure.
The emotion of failure is rampant, but everyone thinks differently.
Big Bo was sitting by the window of the bus, he was already regretting it.
The status of the team among the Big Three is the lowest, and he has to take the blame if he loses the game. He has been ridiculed as a "pseudo-giant" since the beginning of the group...
Now, he thinks, if he didn't join the Cavaliers, but chose to go to New Jersey, or go back to his hometown of Houston, would everything be much better?
Wade lowered his head, thinking about the future.
There are also regrets, but no more than Bosh, at least he still has expectations for the future of the Cavaliers.
He feels that everything is not so bad, as long as the Heat firmly build a team with him and LeBon as the core, and fill in the corners, next season, they will still be able to make a comeback.
Finally, there was Le Bang, who sat in the front row and endured for a while, but finally Le Bang couldn't hold back.
He picked up his phone, clicked on WeChat, and clicked on the chat box with Wade in WeChat.
"Dwayne, I know you may feel frustrated at this moment, but what I want to say is that failure is only temporary..."
"Instead of dwelling on our past failures, what we should be doing is ... summarizing our failures, understanding why we failed, and then making changes."
"Next season, make a comeback!"
A long paragraph, clicked send, Lebang breathed a sigh of relief.
Although in this series, under Li Ke's defense, Lebron only played one game worthy of his worth.
LeBron still doesn't think the Cavaliers failed because of him.
He summed it up and found the reason for the failure——
Take the just-concluded G5 as an example. In this game, Li Ke scored another 30 points, plus Curry's 22 points, Captain Jack's 17 points, and Jamison's 15 points. The Bobcats' offensive four-core combined scored 84 points.
The Big Three actually matched each other, with LeBron with 27 points, Wade with 34 points, and Bosh with 18 points. The Big Three combined scored 79 points, only 5 points less than the Bobcats.
But in terms of the whole game, the Cavaliers lost a full 95 points with a score of 112 to 17.
In the case of one less player, the Big Three lost only 5 points to the Bobcats quad-core team. Leaving aside these 7 players, the Cavaliers lost a full 12 points.
So, the conclusion came out: The Cavaliers lost to the role players, not the core players.
Looking at these five games, except for the Bobcats scoring 4 points in G134, the remaining three victories are roughly similar.
The Cavaliers' Big Three are still top-notch, and they can contribute at least 75 points in every game, but there are very few role players.
Except for Mike Bibby, Daniel Gibson and Eddie House who can make some three-pointers, only Randy Foye can give some help on the offensive end.
The rest, Artest, Varejao, and Maurice Evans are all black holes on the offensive end.
Varejao is a scarce center in the league, and his offense is still tolerable for the Cavaliers.
Artest is old, and the defense the Cavaliers want is not as good as it used to be.
Maurice Evans has reached the age of retirement, the role player of the Cavaliers is really bad.
The trades and signings in the middle of the regular season only improved the Cavaliers' role players from rotten and unsmelly to rotten and tolerable.
Compared with a team like the Bobcats, where everyone can pull up and play a game, and the depth of the bench is as deep as the Mariana Trench, the difference is too far.
Wade did not reply to LeBon. He felt that, as a star player who could understand the game, he could see clearly where the Cavaliers lost.
"LeBron is absolutely responsible and he needs to realize that."
……
The Eastern Conference Finals are over, and the Western Conference Finals has also entered an anxious stage. The Thunder and the Lone Ranger drew 2-2.
Unlike the previous life, there is no tortoise to hold back, and there is a Rondo who knows how to win in the playoffs, and a teacher Tony who can provide tough defense.
The Thunder killed the Lone Ranger who should have exploded in this season's playoffs and won the championship...
Li Ke, who is already a bystander, is increasingly unable to see the situation in the west clearly.
"Could it be that Xiao Du is really capable of leading the team to the finals?"
The old driver is still breaking out, and he held on to the situation, but if the Lone Ranger wants to win, it depends on whether Terry, Kidd, and Sean Marion can stand up and make a difference...
At the same time, Boss Qiao, who had disappeared for half a month, finally appeared.
Not by my side, but in the TV.
Labor negotiations have been restarted round after round, and the players have made concessions again and again. The share ratio has long been determined, and 50% is the bottom line for the players.
The boss side has no idea of touching this bottom line for the time being, but they insist on a flexible salary cap, and want to use this to block the possibility of players' income exceeding the share ratio.
The situation is still deadlocked.
Seeing that the old labor agreement is about to expire, the league will soon be forced to stop...
The much-anticipated boss Joe stood in front of the microphone. During the labor negotiations in 1998, he once said to the Wizards boss: "If your team doesn't make money, just sell it!"
The tough attitude led the players, Steve Kerr, and even the young Stephen Marbury at the time, to stand up and criticize the boss.
As a result, the foundation for successful labor negotiations in 98 was laid.
This time, many players still believe that Boss Joe will stand up for them and make the final decision.
result……
"Fifty-fifty split, flexible salary cap, this is the final offer. If the agreement cannot be reached before June 6, we will withdraw this offer and reduce the share to 1%!"
There are a lot of words, but to sum it up, it is an ultimatum, whether you like to sign or not!
The players were disappointed, especially Lao Du, who even said to Li Ke: "I have decided to leave Charlotte this summer."
Li Ke frowned, Old Qiao's attitude was within his expectation.
In addition, he also clearly knew that Old Joe contacted the owners of more than a dozen teams and formed a small faction.
The purpose of this small faction is to find ways to reduce the share ratio to 47%.
To put it bluntly, before signing the nine-year $14 billion broadcast contract in 9, the vast majority of NBA teams were losing money, and all small ball markets suffered serious losses.
Under such circumstances, the bosses in the small ball market will naturally take advantage of the expiration of the labor agreement to suppress the price until it can no longer be suppressed.
It's just that Li Ke couldn't understand——
Obviously the Bobcats are profitable, why does Joe join such a small faction that squeezes players?
