Chapter 639 G1 ([-])
James played for three full quarters, 36 minutes, without resting for a second. Throughout his career, this kind of game has only appeared twice in his career. The result of the game was that the Lakers won both games.

One was the fifth game of the finals during the first championship period, the battle of Tianwangshan. James played the whole game and helped the team defeat the Milwaukee Bucks 5:138 and climbed Tianwangshan. In the end, the Lakers won the championship 136-4.

The other was the second championship tour, the Western Conference Finals tie-breaker. James played the first three quarters and played for 47 minutes and 15 seconds. He won the San Antonio Spurs at the time. At that time, the Spurs had three All-Star players. Unable to get out of the shadow of "disintegration".

The Spurs were not the only team that was broken up by James. The Utah Jazz and the Minnesota Timberwolves were also James' souls.

This game is the first time James has played 36 minutes without a break after three seasons, which is enough to show the determination of the Lakers to win.

It is also because the Heat are a strong enough opponent that they will force James with all his strength.

The Heat began to use rotation tactics against James. From the moment Williams came on the field, he kept giving James physical confrontation and tried his best to interfere with his offense, but Williams naturally couldn't stop James. His task was to consume.

Williams received 2 fouls in a very short period of time. Rondo immediately applied for a timeout to replace him, and the replaced player only needed to do the same thing as Williams.

Under the defense of the Heat players in turn, James' physical fitness gradually began to show signs of decline, and he missed the basket twice in a row.

In less than 5 minutes, many players sent 4 players to consume James, and the effect was very obvious.

"Do you want to take a break?" Oscar always paid attention to James' state, and his offensive efficiency dropped significantly.

James looked fierce, "This level of defense will not affect me."

As soon as the words fell, James hit a three-pointer from the outside and made a strong response to Rondo's tactics.

"Oh, it seems that the consumption is not enough, Williams, have you rested?" Rondo smirked, and then called Williams on the bench.

Williams got up immediately, "Okay."

Rondo once again applied for a substitution, put Williams back on the field, and a new round of consumption officially began.

"They're going to keep consuming James." Oscar said anxiously.

"How does the physical fitness of one person compare to that of four people? Even God can't stand this level of consumption, let alone James has played for 42 minutes." Felix was also very anxious seeing this situation.

In 42 minutes, James really didn't rest for a second.

When he saw Williams reappearing in front of him, James knew what was going on, "There are 6 minutes left, hold on." James hinted in his heart.

James' speed and breakthrough deterrence have dropped a lot, but after all, a lean camel is bigger than a horse. Even if James' strength has dropped, it is still not a level that Williams can fight against.

"It's terrible. This is not what it should be after playing for 42 minutes." Williams was overwhelmed by James' physical fitness. He could not stand it after only 8 minutes in this high-intensity confrontation, and James was still able to output.

James hit an emergency stop mid-range against Williams' defense, officially raising his score to 50 points, becoming the third player in history to score 50+ in the first game of the Finals, but the team did not establish a lead because of his 50 points. The Heat offset James' score with the joint performance of Mu Chenfeng, Wade and Barrett.

"Huh~huh~huh~" James put his hands on his knees and panted quickly, but his head never lowered, and his eyes full of fighting spirit were fixed on the opponent's basket.

He could also feel the soreness from his legs, and he also played the whole game. The intensity this time was obviously much higher than the previous two times, because he encountered a more difficult opponent than the previous two times.

The last 3 minutes are often the critical period for deciding the game. Whichever team can survive will win the favor of the Goddess of Victory. The competition of willpower is so cruel.

James was not the only one with heavy legs. Wade, Barrett, Gaia and others played less time than James, and they all played more than 40 minutes. Their offensive efficiency has fluctuated significantly since the interruption of the fourth quarter. At this time, players on both sides are very tired.

"It's the last 3 minutes, grit your teeth and persevere." Wade encouraged the players. In such an anxious situation, if the team can win the game, it will build a very large advantage in confidence for the team. The loser will suffer a heavy blow. Maybe this emotion will spread to the next game.

"Okay!!!" The Heat players responded neatly, the momentum was like a rainbow, and the Heat fans also felt the belief from the players in winning, and they all stood up to cheer for the team, and the home court advantage was infinitely magnified.

The deafening shouts completely submerged the Lakers soldiers, and the audience shouted "Beat La", which put a lot of psychological pressure on the Lakers players.

"It's so noisy." Felix, who experienced the finals for the first time, couldn't accept such a voice.

James seriously reminded, "Don't be affected by those irrelevant voices, focus on the game, the louder their voices are, the more we have to shut them up."

Felix stared blankly at James. He was not affected in the slightest. After all, he is a star who has won the championship and is very strong in emotional control.

"I like this sound." James said lightly, "At least it proves our strength."

"Beat La! Beat La! Beat La!"

"That's right, we are very strong." Oscar walked forward slowly, facing the well-formed Heat team, "Better than them!"

"Good job!" James stretched out his fist in front of Oscar.

Oscar also stretched out his fist and bumped into him, "The game has come to this point, is there any need to keep it? Let's go all out."
