He had no chance at the free throw line, so he could only dribble the ball back to the three-point line and return the ball to James.
James continued to break through. This time the Cavaliers had tactical cooperation on the weak side, and Korver ran out of the opportunity to catch the ball.
James' pass was timely, but the Pelicans also switched quickly.
The moment Korver caught the ball and shot it, Davis' defense interference had arrived.
"Dangdang!"
Korver also failed to make a three-pointer!
The Cavaliers wanted to play against the Pelicans, but they failed to score in two consecutive waves of offense after the opening!
The state of the team is still a big problem!
Even if Lu mentioned Korver, who had performed well before, to the starting lineup, it seemed useless in the face of the Pelicans' defensive quality!
On the other hand, Tang Tian suddenly scored in the frontcourt, and Butler caught the ball and made a mid-range shot.
The Pelicans beat the Cavaliers 6-0 in the opening game!
There were constant cheers at the scene.
That's what they're looking forward to in the finals.
Just like Zhu Yuanzhang of the Ming Dynasty overthrew his greatest enemy Chen Youliang, it was like breaking through the Yuan Dynasty afterwards.
The Pelicans defeated the Warriors in the Western Conference Finals, and played against the poor Cavaliers in the Finals, it was like going through the motions!
James forced Butler to the basket and shot against Davis' help defense.
"Dangdang!"
The ball still missed.
The rest of the Cavaliers are in poor condition, and the Pelicans can double-team James unscrupulously.
And unlike those teams in the Eastern Conference before, the combination of Pelicans striker Butler and Davis is the strongest defensive combination in the league.
Even for James, it is by no means so easy to force a score.
Davis protected the defensive rebound, and the Pelicans made another defensive counterattack.
The Cavaliers' defense speed is really much worse than that of the Warriors.
This time it was Tang Tian who received Walker's return pass, and a big windmill smashed the ball into the basket.
8:0.
The Pelicans completely hung up the Cavaliers to play.
Cavs fans have completely disappeared on the hotline.
The Pelicans really hung up the Cavaliers to play.
Even James, who they trust the most, has no room to play at all.
Wade held the ball and wanted to use Thompson's pick-and-roll to find a misplacement, but Thompson couldn't stop Tang Tian at all.
Wei Deqiang made a sudden shot and was almost taken off by Tang Tian.
The rebound was caught by Tang Tian's counterattack, and the Cavaliers' offense still failed to score!
There is no harm without comparison.
The Cavaliers struggled out of the East, and many people thought they would cause some trouble for the Pelicans and even win a game.
But the reality is cruel.
The Bucks were almost beaten by the Pelicans in the regular season, and the Pelicans still didn't give their best.
The Cavaliers struggled to get out with James' brave performance. They really didn't have many chances in front of the Pelicans, and in front of the full-strength Pelicans.
The Pelicans finally failed to score after a wave of offense. Looking back, James used himself as a dynamite bag and forced himself against the defense of Davis and Butler to cause a foul.
He flicked his hands and walked to the free throw line, and finally had a chance to score for the Cavaliers.
But maybe it was because of the fierce confrontation before, or maybe it was a problem of habit, so he failed to make the first free throw.
Fortunately, the second free throw bounced in, and he finally broke the scoring drought for the Cavaliers.
But immediately, Walker received Tang Tian's pass and scored a three-pointer.
11 is better than 1!
After just over three minutes into the game, the Pelicans have already achieved a double-digit lead!
Potential like a broken bamboo!
Lu stood on the sidelines with dull eyes, his mouth opened as if a ring had dropped.
He has done everything he can, but the gap in strength between the two teams is the largest in the past three years.
He is just a tactical wizard, and it is really unrealistic to expect him to turn the tide.
The point difference on the field is being widened with an irresistible trend.
The Cavaliers can only rely on James' sporadic scoring to maintain, and the support given to him by others is very limited.
Since the Cavaliers 1.0 period, James' teammates have always been the object of complaints from his fans.
Even after going to the Heat and returning to the Cavaliers to the 2.0 period, this situation has not changed.
As if the teammates around him were never good enough.
Well now, in this year's playoffs, my teammates really failed.
After the first quarter, James scored 12 points in a single quarter, but the Cavaliers were 19 points behind the Pelicans 36 to 17.
By the end of the half, James scored 20+ in the half, but the Pelicans had opened the point difference to 25+.
The most intuitive feeling for the fans after watching this half is that whether it is the Bucks or the Cavaliers, there is really not much resistance in front of the Pelicans.
And it's all reasonable.
Except for these two teams, the strength of the Eastern Conference is very limited. The teams that break through from this division are really incomparable with the Western Conference.
The Pelicans opened the point difference to 30+ in three quarters, and also won the victory ahead of schedule.
In the end, they also defeated the Cavaliers 107 to 77 and won their first victory in the finals.
James scored a Cavaliers-high 27 points, 7 rebounds and 6 assists. In addition, only Clarkson and Whiteside scored in double figures.
On the other hand, on the Pelicans side, 6 players scored in double figures.
It was a game that lost its suspense shortly after the opening.
"Before the start of the game, I thought the Cavaliers still had a chance, but after the game, there was really no chance at all."
"I can't help it. The rest of the Cavaliers are too good. You ask Don and LeBron to switch positions, and the result of the game is the same!"
"I really can't move, LeBron, leave Cleveland, there is no hope here!"
"The contracts of both George and LeBron expire this summer. Because of the contracts of Whiteside and Love, the Cavaliers' salary will also explode."
"Yes, LeBron chose to return to Cleveland three years ago, and he has done his best to this city. Now it's time to make the choice he wants to make!"
"Go to Los Angeles or New York! My emperor will be 34 soon, and he needs to go to a big city!"
……
And it's just one game, James fans on social media are already considering his next home.
However, amidst the decline, some fans still have hope for the next game of the Cavaliers.
A large part of this is willing to be Xiao Hua.
Xiao Hua wants to stop the Pelicans, and now there is no other team except the Cavaliers.
Just like three years ago when he fell behind 1 to 3 but forcibly blew it to 3 to 3, Xiao Hua can definitely do it a little harder.
At this point, these people coincide with Xiao Hua.
Two days later, the second game of the finals continued at the New Orleans Arena.
The result of the game was not much different from the first game.
The Pelicans slammed the Cavaliers all over the court, and finally ended with a big victory.
The referee help that those fans were expecting didn't come.
Just after this game, there were also moderate personnel changes at the top of the league.
The league's chief vice president, Rhine Sock, has resigned from his position and will go to the NFL to take up his post.
Suoke is Xiao Hua's assistant and his number one officer.
This personnel change, coupled with the abnormal behavior of ESPN and betting websites before, and the referee has never been online.
All these factors are mixed together, even fans who react slowly realize that Xiao Hua has lost power.
And when you think about it, it makes sense.
The support rate for Xiao Hua's comeback was not particularly high.
After the Pelicans let the NBA finale, the bosses who originally supported him also regretted it one after another because of interest issues.
After the referee incident, the fans no longer supported him, and the Pelicans let life explode.
Xiao Hua, who was proud of his comeback by promising many benefits, can't fulfill anything now.
It is almost certain that he will step down again after the season.
If there were still people facing him at such a time, it would be true that his head was kicked by a donkey.
Trees fall and hozens scatter, this is the same everywhere.
Three days later, the Pelicans headed to Cleveland, where they faced the Cavaliers in Game [-] of the Finals.
Despite successive defeats, Cleveland fans still support the Cavaliers.
Before the game, signs supporting the Cavaliers could be seen everywhere on the streets, and the Quicken Loans Arena was full during the game.
However, these off-court factors ultimately failed to help the Cavaliers.
These are useful when the two teams are similar in strength.
But the strength gap between the Cavaliers and the Pelicans is too much now.
In the end, the Pelicans beat the Cavaliers again 110-88, rewriting the big score of the finals to 3-0.
After winning this game, they are only one step away from winning the championship and "four.four.four.four".
And the happiest fans at this time are those fans who bought the Pelicans to win the championship from the beginning, and they can make a lot of money.
In their anticipation, two days later, the fourth game of the finals continued at Quicken Loans Arena.
Before the game, the Cleveland Candide continued to report that the team owner Gilbert personally went to the training hall to cheer the team.
James also gave a wonderful speech to the players after the training session.
Even coach Lue uttered the words of fighting for the dignity of Cleveland.
When these news are put together, it can be felt that the Cavaliers are not willing to be swept away like this.
The Quicken Loans Arena was still full that night.
There is also a familiar figure in the sidelines, the league president Adam Silver.
However, it was completely different from the previous appearance in Oakland. He looked extremely decadent, like a walking dead.
It seems that after losing power, his life is very difficult. Before, he pretended to be depressed, but now looking at his state, he may be really depressed.
And his presence this time is not because he intends to come, but because the Pelicans are likely to win the championship trophy tonight and complete the dynasty.
As the president of the alliance, even if he loses power, he is still the president of the alliance.
He cannot be absent at the championship awarding moment. As the president of the league, he must also hand over the championship trophy to the Pelicans.
He was joined by Pelicans owner Gail Benson.
However, it was completely different from Xiao Hua's expression. Benson's face was flushed, high-spirited and triumphant.
Since the Lakers at the beginning of the century, no team has been able to complete a three-peat dynasty.
Including the previous Spurs, they were short of the last step and fell short.
But now the Pelicans have this opportunity, and it's basically a sure thing.
