Coach, I don't want to retire yet

Chapter 375 James’ bottom line
Boston.

James' mood at this time can only be described as dark clouds covering the sky.

Before this Eastern Conference Finals, he never imagined that his performance could be so bad.

At home, they were outscored by more than 40 points in two games by the Cavaliers, losing by an average of more than 20 points per game.

Not to mention the Celtics fans who have great opinions on the Celtics at this time, even he himself can't stand his performance in this series.

In the last game, not only was he beaten by Oden, but even the Cavaliers' substitute sixth man Isaiah Thomas Jr. was able to run wild in front of him.

On both ends of the court, he was chased by Cavaliers players.

As a super giant who has great face, if he plays in such a game, he really loses all face.

Therefore, after the game, the Celtics officially announced that star LeBron James strained his groin during a rush during the game and also sprained his ankle to a certain extent. His participation in the next game is doubtful.

If he only used his groin technique in this game, he would not be able to wash away the shame in the game.

Moreover, what makes James most angry is that after the end of the last game, there was a vague force against him in the entire team.

On the Celtic bus.

The Celtics are now preparing to fly to the airport and then go to Cleveland to play G3.

Based on the Celtics' performance in the previous two games, almost no one believed they still had a chance.

Even the Celtics players themselves didn't believe they still had a chance.

Perhaps, at this moment, the only one who believes that he still has a chance is himself.

Even his good brother Chris Paul looked frustrated at this time.

In these two games, the Celtics really had no chance at all. After these two games, the biggest harm to the Celtics is not the outcome of the two games, but the complete defeat of the Celtics. My self-confidence was shattered.

It is precisely because of the complete loss of trust in the team that these star players in the Celtics are alienated.

This is actually quite normal.

Except for Paul, the entire Celtics are not James' real brothers.

The thick eyebrows came to the Celtics for Miracle Monty. He is the direct descendant of the head coach. However, after coming to the Celtics, he found that Miracle Monty’s authority in the Celtics was not that great. Miracle Monty was a direct descendant of the head coach. Ty is not an ordinary head coach. He still has authority over the Celtics, and James usually respects him.

However, every time the game reaches a critical moment, James will make his own decision.

For example, in the last game, James wanted to travel at staggered times to play the entire second quarter. However, in the opinion of Miracle Monty, it was not necessary. The team was still leading after the first quarter. In the second quarter, Guy and Jeff could be used. Green, Smart and other young players find their form and let them grow.

However, in the end James still forced himself to play.

Scored 2 points in 7 minutes, which really improved the data.

However, the Celtics' rotation was completely disrupted. The team's role players and young players also lost the opportunity to find game form. James himself was also consumed. Finally, in the third quarter, the Celtics were directly beaten by the Cavaliers. collapse.

This is the biggest conflict between James and Miracle Monty.

Miracle Monty hopes to give the team's young players room to grow, and he also needs to give role players room to grow.

However, many times, because of James' intervention, even Rudy Gay has no space.

What's more, young rookies such as Smart?

James was disobedient at the critical moment, and the ball was in his hands. No one else had a strategy. Even if the magical Monty forced the thick eyebrow tactics and Randolph's tactics, James was like a wooden stake, and the thick eyebrows and Randolph's tactics were still there. Dove was having a hard time too.

In the regular season, the Celtics were too strong, coupled with the geographical location in the East, and when they played against strong teams, because James had to compete for MVP, there was always a magic weapon to help, but in the playoffs, it completely became It’s different.

Therefore, in the Celtics, anyone with a normal IQ knows who is responsible for the current problems that the Celtics have.

Miracle Monty has been completely ruined in these two games, and it can be seen how deeply James is involved in the Celtics.

In fact, at the beginning of the season, when James and Paul were competing for the top spot, James failed for a while. During that time, the Celtics put tremendous pressure on James.

Many Celtics fans even criticized James online.

At that time, many Celtics fans even called for another trade of James, such as sending James to the Thunder for Durant to form a combination of Durant and Paul, or sending James to the Lakers for Kobe, Yao Ming, etc. wait.

Later, Celtics general manager Danny Ainge also stood up and threatened James.

In the end, James was forced to complete the battle between him and Paul for the team boss as soon as possible.

Now, this situation occurs again.

If James is still with the Cavaliers, and the team's conference finals are like this, it must be because of his teammates in the CBA, the coach is a rookie, and the management is inactive.

However, now that James is with the Celtics, the Celtics have not spoiled him from top to bottom.

In addition to the group of people behind James, the Celtics are now harboring a huge conspiracy from top to bottom.

Well, for James, this is a huge conspiracy.

Watching the team's head coaches Magic Monty and Danny Ainge whispering something in front of the bus, James' face became even more ugly.

His direct message told him that the two men were now discussing a plot against him.

Now the Celtics are 0-2 behind. For most people, this series is already over.

Even the most die-hard Celtics fan and star, even James, even if he knows that there are noble people behind him to help, he is not sure that he will be able to win this series.

To win this series, he needs the support of everyone in the Celtics from top to bottom.

But, you look at Danny Ainge and Amazing Monty.

They don't even care about winning or losing this series.

It seems that the team that is trailing 0-2 at this time has nothing to do with them, and it seems that the Celtics were swept, and it has nothing to do with them at all.

After losing two games in a row, they didn't even call the team's players for a meeting to solve the problem.

It looks like this season is over, which makes James very dissatisfied.

but……

As a smart man, James clearly knows that even if the Celtics are swept 0-4 by the Cavaliers in this series, it is really nothing to the Celtics.

The Celtics are one of the teams with the longest history in the NBA. In the history of the Celtics, they have been swept many times. One more is not too many, and one less is not too many.

The Celtics really don't need to care about the outcome of this series.

However, he, LeBron James, is different.

After being humiliated like that by Coach D for two consecutive years, he was burdened with too many benefits and expectations.

This year, he has the pressure not to lose!
Faced with such pressure, he cannot lose this series no matter what!
Even if you lose everything, you must reach the top!
He knew very well that he only had this chance!

After losing this opportunity, he will completely lose the power of those behind him!
This sense of crisis made him very anxious.

Therefore, he is also looking for help and pressure.

But this isn't Cleveland, this is the Celtics.

The Celtics didn't care at all about his pressure.

In the Cavaliers, whenever he was dissatisfied, the team general manager and owner would act like his teammates and put pressure on the head coach and other players.

In the Celtics, Danny Ainge and those high-level celebrities, at this time, all sided with the amazing Monty.

"Danny, actually, we don't have to do this."

Monty Williams whispered to Danny Ainge next to him.

It was Danny Ainge's decision to put pressure on James and make him completely obey the Celtics.

Danny Ainge is a guy who knows ball.

The Celtics' current style of play is that the entire team is serving James, serving James' data and honor. A 100-point team, in order to support James, can only perform 90 points.

Danny Ainge doesn't mind if he can pass the game with 90 points.But obviously, after seeing the game between the Lakers and the Warriors, and then encountering the Cavaliers, Danny Ainge knew very well that the 90-point Celtics would never be able to pass.

Don’t forget, Coach D, that man hasn’t moved yet!

"Monty, you have to remember that in Boston, no one can stand on the team. Except for the Cardinals, not even Russell and Larry Bird can stand on the team. James, even more No, he needs to learn the Celtic spirit, the spirit where everyone must sacrifice everything for the Celtics!"

Monty Williams was speechless when he heard those words from Danny Ainge.

Because, Danny Ainge is right.

But what he didn't know was that there was something behind Danny Ainge's words.

Players must have the spirit to sacrifice everything for the team, and the team also has the right to sacrifice any player for the team, such as Garnett and Pierce.

This is the Celtic spirit!

Well, it's the Celtics spirit that Danny Ainge understands.

I wonder if the cardinal would be furious if he knew that the students he taught understood the Celtic spirit like this.

But no matter what, James, who calls himself a smart man, is now completely manipulated by Danny Ainge.

"LeBron, will he really admit his mistake?"

Amazing Monty thought to himself.

In fact, he prefers to solve this problem in a milder way.

Breaking up with James is definitely not the best way for the Celtics.

But he also had to admit that at this moment, when time is so tight, a move like Danny Ainge's is indeed the most effective.

As for the consequences after the team broke up with James.

Danny Ainge thought about it too.

"Monty, you don't understand James. As long as the Celtics are the best team for him, even if I point my finger at him and scold him, he will not leave.

If the Celtics are no longer the best team for James, even if all of us beg him to stay, he will not stay. The Cavaliers, Heat, Knicks, there are too many examples.

So, what matters is not James, but us.

As long as we are strong enough, we don't have to worry about what James is thinking.

So Monty, can you tell me, are we really strong enough? "

Faced with such a confident Danny Ainge, of course Monty Williams could only nod.

If James is willing to obey, then the Celtics will be absolutely powerful, so powerful that it is unbelievable!

This is the second time this season that James and Danny Ainge are facing off like this.

For the first time, the two tied.

Danny Ainge let James settle the dispute early.

And James also got the team boss position he wanted.

This time, it will be difficult for James and Danny Ainge to win-win. One of them must give in first.

On the bus, Danny Ainge and Miracle Monty didn't talk to James, or even look at James.

After boarding the plane, Danny Ainge and Monty Williams still did not have any communication with James on the plane.

There wasn't even eye contact.

This atmosphere is really too weird.

The war is about to begin, and the team's boss, the team's head coach, and the top management have stopped talking.

Such huge pressure is suffocating!

Even the group of people behind James were extremely nervous at this moment.

Get off the plane.

Returning to Cleveland again, what James is waiting for is not the welcome, nor the admiration of the fans.

What James finally waited for was the arrogant humiliation from Cleveland fans, who held various signs to humiliate James.

deserter!

Cup cake!

Cleveland coward!
Viper!

……

The signs held up by Cavaliers fans are not vicious, at least they are basketball-related.

But, in addition, there were actually many Cavaliers fans holding up signs saying 'West' and 'Goodwin'!

This is quite vicious.

Spurs fans humiliated Popovich, no matter how cruel they were, they still did not humiliate Popovich's family.

But this time, James' mother became the target of attack by Cavaliers fans.

Although everyone knows that James' mother is not a very discreet person, she is James' favorite woman after all.

Of course, James couldn't stand it.

Team pressure.

Pressure from Cavaliers fans.

When James boarded the bus to the hotel, his eyes were red with anger.

Paul next to me felt heartbroken.

LeBron has been under too much pressure recently!

Back at the hotel, James finally returned to his room amid the taunts and chases from Cleveland fans.

Then, the people behind him came up immediately.

"LeBron, I don't care what means you use, I don't care what you lose, you have to win tomorrow night's game, we will give everything for you, and you have to give everything for yourself!"

"LeBron, at least, we will never give up on you this year, but you can't give up on yourself!"

No matter what you lose, you must win!
No matter what is lost...

Everything these days has been running through my mind like a lantern.

Shame, shame, stress, family members being attacked…

James, who had his eyes closed, gritted his teeth.

It seemed like something kept breaking.

"LeBron, do you remember West and Goodwin? Your two dads will come to the court to see you in this game!"

"Ha ha ha ha……"

"Ha ha ha ha……"

Click!

Finally, the thing called the bottom line was completely broken!
"You forced me to..."
