NBA peak

Chapter 195 Another Way

The news that the Raptors led the Cavaliers 2-0 in the series was immediately spread in the league.

Many fans began to leave messages on the Internet, commenting that James is old and can no longer bring a lot of babies like the Cavaliers.

Immediately, some people jumped out to object, thinking that James is still the omnipotent James back then, but the Cavaliers are no longer the Cavaliers that won the NBA championship.

Since the Cavaliers were swept by the Warriors led by Durant last year, the Cavaliers' management has smelled that James may leave the team.

This year, the Cavaliers made drastic reforms, successively signing James' good brothers Wade, Rose, Thomas Jr. and others to the Cavaliers one after another.

But it's not enough to just pull all of James' good brothers into one team. The Cavaliers have to win to keep James.

The Cavaliers have struggled too much in the playoffs this season.

In the first round and the fifth-ranked Pacers, they fought seven games. In the end, it was James' god-like performance that turned the tide and got close to the second round.

Facing the more powerful Raptors in the second round, the Cavaliers tried their best and did not steal a victory at the Raptors' home court.

Today's Raptors are completely different from the era of the Raptors with two guns.

The current Raptors have three stable scoring points, and their defense is also terrible.

The most deadly thing is that Siakam of the Raptors has become better and better in these few games, and there is a faint tendency to become the team's fourth gun.

How can the Cavaliers win with such a Raptors whose offense and defense are getting more and more balanced.

Two days later, the Toronto Raptors are in Cleveland.

This is James' home court, and there is no doubt that this is James' chassis.

From a 3-year-old child in Cleveland to a 100-year-old long-lived man, James is enshrined as a demigod.

James single-handedly ended Cleveland's 52-year sports championship nightmare.

Two hours before the game, the Quicken Loans Center was already full.

The entire Quicken Loans Center arena is full of loyal fans cheering for James.

On the TNT show, the Big Three gathered in Cleveland.

There is no doubt that this is a crucial game for the Cavaliers.

This game will determine whether the league's No. 9 James will bid farewell to the Eastern Conference finals for the first time in nine years.

This is the case with the Big Three of TNT, where there are the most gimmicks, there will be their presence.

"Now, we can talk about James being swept." Barkley said straight to the point.

O'Neill and Smith felt short of breath at the same time.

Barkley is well-known as James Black. Seeing James trailing the Raptors by a big score of 0 to 2, he is happier than anyone else.

Smith shook his head, his eyebrows nearly knit together.

"Barkley, where did you hear that James will be swept?"

Barkley gave his own point of view: "In any case, the Raptors have completely swept away the haze of previous years. Now the Raptors, is there anyone in the East who can stop them?"

Smith defended: "Oh, man, that's not the case. The Raptors won the game, there is an element of luck in it. Besides, Toronto is their home court. It's no big deal for them to win two games in a row at their home court!"

The Cavaliers did match the Raptors in the last game.

"James had a chance to kill the Raptors at the last time, but it can only be said that Lao Zhan's luck was a little bit worse, and the layups that hit the basket were all misplaced." O'Neal added.

Barkley pursed his lips: "It's not like that. I watched all the videos of the last game. The Cavaliers have played their best, but they still lost. Ge Feng has improved so much this season. He and Irving can benefit from each other on the offensive end. In the end, Ge Feng harassed James, and James hit the ball crookedly. James must be very clear about the reason for the last failure. He is the smartest player in the league. He knows that the Cavaliers have tried their best."

Smith kept shaking his head: "Barkley, how about we make another bet on whether James will be swept?"

O'Neal started laughing.

In TNT's live broadcast room, Barkley was the one who lost the worst every time he bet.

But Barkley no longer cared about his own image in order to black James.

As long as Barkley can black James, no matter what he is asked to do, he is willing.

"Then buddy, let's bet on the pink skirt! I bet James will be swept away, and if he loses, he will live on the stage in a skirt like me."

"Well, just bet, I'm still afraid of you! O'Neill, what about you? Which side are you on?" Smith took the bet and turned his head to O'Neill again.

O'Neill immediately lifted the stool, indicating that he wanted to leave.

"Good guy, don't run away, tell me, who did you bet with."

O'Neill's eyebrows frowned: "Then I also bet that James will be swept..."

"Hahaha." Barkley laughed loudly on the court. This was the first time O'Neal stood by his side.

"Damn O'Neal, you betrayed me!"

……

In the third game of the high-profile riding battle, James brought his teammates together.

"It's not going to work for us right now, but trust me guys, I've been through worse than this and I know what to do. Just relax your minds, it's okay to lose. Let's make it Game [-] and we'll start over. Shoot every open spot, play every defense, trust each other and we'll make it."

The motivational effect of James' words is extraordinary.

James once overturned the Warriors and won the championship when he was behind 1 to 3, so everyone can hear what he said.

After the game started, James played significantly different from the previous two games.

He began to actively look for the open space of his teammates to help his teammates find the touch faster.

Most of the Cavaliers' role players were still a little nervous, but James chose to trust them, and even though they missed two consecutive shots, James still passed the ball to the open teammate without hesitation.

The Raptors opened with a nearly 10-point lead.

Barkley saw that James was going to become a green leaf and fulfill the role player of the Cavaliers.

"Look, James is no longer doing it alone, he is going to organize his teammates again. Man, I swear, James has really tried his best to find a way to win, but he can't find this way."

Smith curled his lips: "Just wait and see."

Over time, more shots have brought more confidence to the Cavaliers' role players.

JR, Irving, and Love hit key three-pointers one after another. Rose, who came off the bench, went inside many times, causing Ibaka to foul.

The role player of the Cavaliers is playing harder and harder.

On the other hand, Lao Zhan, in the fourth quarter of the game, had only a dozen shots and scored 17 points.

But Lao Zhan's assists went straight to 20.

Cavaliers fans are going crazy...
