This striker is a bit of a monster

Chapter 288 Challenge James again!
In the 2008-2009 season, the little emperor LeBron James led the Cavaliers to a league-best record of 66 wins and 16 losses in the regular season. In the 82 games of the Cavaliers in the regular season, James played 81 times and started 81 games. The playing time was 37.7 minutes, the shooting rate was 48.9%, and he averaged 28.4 points, 7.6 rebounds, 7.2 assists and 1.1 blocks per game. The usage rate and efficiency value were maintained at a very high level.

On the premise that there are not many powerful new aids coming, the team has carried the team to the first record in the league.

The first round of the playoffs was 4-0, and they swept the Philadelphia 76ers neatly. It was also the only game in the East that advanced to the second round by sweeping.

On May 5, the Cleveland Cavaliers will face the challenge of the younger Charlotte Bobcats at home, and just this morning, the NBA officially announced that LeBron James won the regular season MVP for the first time in his career.

In fact, James has always been the favorite for the MVP of the regular season in recent years, but they have always been candidates. With the Cliff Cavaliers who have the first record in the regular season with 66 wins this year, James finally became the main player. The best player in the regular season of the season is also well-deserved.

But even after waiting for a few years, what needs to be known is that until today LeBron James is only 24 years and 106 days old, younger than more than half of the players in the league, and also the youngest regular season MVP in history.

During the awards ceremony and the interview, LeBron James also mentioned the game to be played tonight, and also mentioned Zhou Lin, who also played the third position very quickly.

"They're good, they made it to the second round of the playoffs for the third year in a row, but this year we're the best team, so we're going to win the playoffs, even if it's tough, you say Zhou? What do you say? , he is a very good person and a player with great potential, and he has grown into a superstar. He and I are teammates in the All-Star Game, and we are also friends in private. When facing him, I must go all out. To compete with him, he is much stronger than two years ago, well, it must be 100% concentration."

At this time, James no longer dared to underestimate Zhou Lin. Zhou Lin scored 4+32 in G13 two years ago. At that time, James realized that Zhou Lin was not easy. He has been improving all the time. He is a very smart player. Even though he has many honors, he still does not slack off. He maintains good self-discipline and learning habits. In 07, he could not be said to be No.1 in the league. At this moment, he is definitely the interpretation of the best player in the league (not black or bragging), and Zhou Lin was a rookie two years ago. Although he had a brilliant performance, he was not stable at that time. In time, Zhou Lin completely became one of the best players in the league. Even in the regular season MVP selection, Zhou Lin also got some votes, and his overall score could barely squeeze into the top ten.

Now James can no longer completely overlook Zhou Lin.

In two years, the lineups of the Charlotte Bobcats and Cleveland Cavaliers have not changed much.

The Cleveland Cavaliers where LeBron James is, the most reliable helper around him is still Big Z Irkskas. The biggest introduction of this season is the acquisition of Mo Williams from the Bucks. In fact, its role is actually not much different from that of Larry Hughes back then. As for the Charlotte Bobcats, the overall lineup is not big, and it is still based on the twin stars of Brandon Roy and Zhou Lin. to build.

Of course, both teams have made considerable progress, which has nothing to do with the operation of the management, but the growth of young players, James is getting stronger, Zhou Lin and Brandon Roy are also getting stronger, by the way It should be mentioned that LeBron James, who has played in the league for 6 years, is actually half a year younger than Brandon Roy, who is still on his rookie contract.

It can be said that the rise of the Cleveland Cavaliers during this period was entirely due to the growth benefits brought about by James' growth.

In fact, this season, everyone is looking forward to the start of the 23VS24 battle, and according to the momentum, this situation is very likely to happen.

TNT's roundtable.

The Charlotte Bobcats are considered by the critics to be a weak side. Most people think that the Charlotte Bobcats will be eliminated by the Cleveland Cavaliers within 5 games. The Charlotte Bobcats will probably win a game or two. , It is also a recognition of the Charlotte Bobcats' strong victory over the Atlanta Hawks in the first round.

Jazz Barkley has always liked to express different opinions from other commentators.

"Seven games, the Charlotte Bobcats will use seven difficult games to get rid of the Cleveland Cavaliers. The Bobcats are a seriously underrated team."

Everyone thinks that Barkley is crazy. You must know that LeBron just received the regular season MVP trophy today.

"My vision has always been unique!"

Barkley seems to have forgotten the experience of being slapped in the face many times, and he is still so confident.

In the survey, 89% of fans believe that the Cleveland Cavaliers can beat their opponents.

Only about 11% of fans think the Charlotte Bobcats can win this round of the series.

The first game between the Cleveland Cavaliers and the Charlotte Bobcats was also broadcast live across the United States, and it was also broadcast live in China.

The Quicken Loan Center was also packed.

LeBron James has never lacked supporters among Chinese fans, but the Charlotte Bobcats with two Chinese players naturally support the Charlotte Bobcats.

You must know that the Houston Rockets have already lost the first round of the playoffs in the game on May 2 with 4-5.

When Zhou Lin heard the news, he didn't feel sorry for Yao Ming.

Rest well!
The timeline of history has been changed, and Dayao can play for a few more seasons.

You must know that Yao Ming's retirement has a great relationship with the desperate fight in the 09 playoffs. The collision with Kobe was largely the cause of the collective outbreak of many injuries later, although Yao still did not Breaking through the first-round curse this year, but at least he should not retire early.

The exit of the Houston Rockets has also focused the attention of the Chinese on the Charlotte Bobcats.

"Starting center - Hibbert!"

Larry Brown announced the starting lineup. Unlike the Atlanta Hawks in the first round, Hibbert was put in the starting lineup. Yi Jianlian scored 10.4 points and 6.2 rebounds in the first round, and had a 42% three-point shooting percentage. And Hibbert only has 5.2 points and 4.4 rebounds. From the performance level, Hibbert must be better, but the current Charlotte Bobcats may be the man with the strongest impact on the inside in the entire league.

The Charlotte Bobcats need Hibbert's ability to protect the frame. There is no doubt about it. His height, wingspan and weight are really incomparable to Yi Jianlian, so this move is understandable. Zhou Lin also agrees with Larry. Brown's move.

In the Quicken Loans Arena in Cleveland, James, who won the MVP, was the last person to walk out of the tunnel under the watchful eyes of the audience.

"When will I be the best player in the NBA like James?"

Zhou Lin murmured.

Zhou Lin has already reached a certain height. If there is no accident, today's best team should also have his own share. The first team doesn't need to be like that, but the small forward position of the second and third teams will definitely be have one yourself.

But just like the students' grades have improved, the difficulty from 95 to 98 is definitely much more difficult than from 60 to 80.

"Congratulations, LeBron, well deserved."

Zhou Lin also politely hugged James before the game and expressed his congratulations to James.

"Thank you brother, I will do my best to deal with you." James patted Zhou Lin's chest and then separated.

The game lineups of both sides came out soon.

Bobcats side: Ramon Sessions, Brandon Roy, Zhou Lin, Emeka Okafor, Roy Hibbert.

Cavaliers: Mo Williams, Delonte West, LeBron James, Anderson Varejao, Zdrunas Ilgauskas.

Compared with the Cleveland Cavaliers 2 years ago, Cleveland's backcourt combination has been replaced.

Although the defensive ability has dropped by a small level, the shooting ability is much stronger than before. Although they are not considered orthodox point guards, West and Mo Williams are both players with good baskets. They're all poor man's versions of combo guards.

There is no need for James to dribble and dribble across the half court. In addition, without Larry Hughes grabbing the position, James is much more comfortable playing here.

For the Bobcats, apart from the fact that Yi Jianlian was tactically removed from the starting lineup because of his different opponents, Larry Brown removed Raymond Felton from the starting lineup because Felton refused to accept discipline. The previous quarrel Although the incident was temporarily suppressed, Larry Brown and Felton should have pissed each other in their hearts, and Larry Brown has never been a coach who can easily tolerate it.

Big Z helped the Cavaliers get the first possession of the ball. The first shot was Mo Williams, who made a three-pointer.

Mo Williams' shooting confidence is also very strong, and James has never been the player who blames you for taking too many shots. In the first season of joining the Cavaliers, Mo's data around James is higher than that of the previous one. There is even a slight increase in the season, 17.8 points and 43.8% of the three-point shooting percentage and 91.2% of the free throw percentage are also the highest in his career. In addition to the 46.7% shooting percentage, Xiao Mo and Zhou Lin are also the top players of the 180 club this season. one of the members.

This is also Mo Williams' most efficient season, and it may also be James' best signing since he came to Cleveland. With an annual salary of 858 million, it can definitely be called low salary and high performance.

However, the Cleveland Cavaliers use two thin and small guards to partner with the back line, and they must also accept the ills on the defensive end, and Brandon Roy just played against the All-Star Joe Johnson in the five games against the Hawks. Falling behind, it is completely a feeling of becoming the No. [-] shooting guard in the Eastern Conference. Whether it is Mo Williams or Delonte West, the size and weight of defending Brandon Roy are too small Some, so Larry Brown also deployed early. As long as it is a one-on-one match, Brandon Roy must play the opponent's back line.

Although in the first round, Brandon Roy's forceful attack on West failed to complete, but this strategy will definitely continue.

Although Zhou Lin and James were facing each other, they both gave the ball to their teammates first to operate in a tacit understanding.

Ramon Sessions' efforts quickly paid off, and his defense against Mo Williams' jellybean style still played a role, and Brandon Roy on the Bobcats side also began to play continuously, His point is definitely the strong point in this series, unless LeBron James is switched to the second position, in the current lineup of the Cavaliers, if he is defended alone, the two buddies who start the game are real No way.

After consecutive drives and shots by Mo Williams and Delonte West went nowhere, the Charlotte Bobcats opened with Brandon Roy and got good results very quickly in the opening game .

The Charlotte Bobcats got off to an 11-4 start on the road after Brandon Roy double-teamed the ball to the basket and Okafor dunked.

Brandon Roy scored 4 of 3 and scored 7 points and 1 assist. It can be said that at this stage, he is the sharpest sword of the Charlotte Bobcats.

"The Charlotte Bobcats are not afraid of the Cleveland Cavaliers who are number one in the league! The most amazing thing is Brandon Roy. Roy is also a player who played in the playoffs in 07. Brandon Roy's performance is actually very average. In 08, he retired from injury early. This year, he really showed his ability. Now it can only be said that the Cleveland Cavaliers are in trouble. They can indeed use James to suppress them. Dead Zhou Lin, of course, can't be said to be dead, but Zhou Lin probably has a hard time scoring as much as cutting vegetables in the last round, but what about Roy? Who is right?"

"This is the difference between a single-core team and a Gemini team. Especially in the playoffs, every player and every detail of the opponent team will be carefully observed under a magnifying glass. A small flaw may become fatal. part."

"It still depends on James."

The commentary here is very accurate. After Mike Brown finished the timeout, the ball began to concentrate towards James. Facing Zhou Lin's defense, James forcibly squeezed away from the left side after a three-threat test step, directly Go to the basket, face Roy Hibbert's frame, switch to the right hand and hit!
"This is ability!"

When the commentator on CCTV saw this scene, he said with great envy: "It really takes decades to produce one with James' physical quality. In the next ten years in the NBA, who wants to win the championship?" The champion, LeBron James should be the player that can never be avoided."

"Zhou, it's your turn."

Brandon Roy glanced at Zhou Lin and gave the ball too.

James scored, now it's up to Zhou Lin how to deal with it.

This is a game between the bosses of the two teams.

Zhou Lin got the ball almost from the same position where James shot. James' fingertips slid into the basket.

"Very beautiful."

"If James' goal is a bit like the eighteen palms of the dragon in Jin Yong's novel, then Zhou Lin's goal is a bit like the six-veined sword."

"One is to drop ten sessions with one force, and the other is to flutter in spirit."
