The Godfather of Basketball

Davis' comeback, for the Celtics, was originally an improvement in strength, but perhaps no one thought that his comeback inspired the Cavaliers to their fullest state.

This is turning anger into strength.

The result is that the Celtics didn't take advantage of the start last time, and this time the substitute was mistreated.

O'Neal had 16 points and 7 rebounds, Green had 12 points, Anderson had 12 points, Beverly had 8 points, 4 rebounds, 3 steals and 2 assists.

It was also because of the outstanding performance of the substitute that the Cavaliers won the key Tianwangshan battle 108-93. After falling behind 1-2, they pulled two games in a row, rewritten the big score to 3-2, and took the lead in winning the promotion championship. Match point for the final.

This surprised the media and fans, felling a Wallace, and greatly weakening the strength of this team, but after forcing Tang Tian to sacrifice the ultimate weapon, it became even stronger.

After two days of rest, the two sides returned to Cleveland to usher in the Cavaliers match point.

The Big Three continued to play well, scoring 80 points together, but they couldn't hold the Cavaliers' entire army, and finally lost 109-116.

James scored a large triple-double of 38 points, 11 rebounds and 10 assists, and Lou Williams also scored the first 30 points of his playoff career.

After the victory at home, the Cavaliers also eliminated the Celtics 4-2, and despite being unfavorable by everyone, they made a strong move to the finals.

This is also the fourth time in Tang Tian's coaching career that he has entered the finals!

Four years of coaching, four finals.

Never absent!

"Unbelievable!"

Although the promotion is a foregone conclusion, the result is still unbelievable, and Barkley is still unbelievable on the show.

Just this bunch of veterans and rookies actually made it to the finals.

Are the Cavaliers trying to replicate the miracle of the Rockets in the 1994-95 season?

After the vigorous Eastern Conference Finals came to an end, Tang Tian arranged for Casey to lead the team in daily training, and then got on the plane to Houston.

"Can we win the Finals?"

Before leaving, Casey asked Tang Tian this with a smile.

"Will do."

Tang Tian gave his first assistant a positive answer.

But in fact, he didn't have a definite answer in his heart.

The Cavaliers' ability to win the Celtics has something to do with Wallace's strength, the common hatred attracted by Davis' criminals, and James' outbreak and the ultimate weapon he sacrificed.

In other words, there are many external factors for the Cavaliers to win. If the two sides play another series, the Cavaliers may not win.

Now, they are about to challenge the Rockets or one of the Lakers.

The strength of these two teams is the strongest in the league this season.

After the Rockets introduced Salmons, their bench strength recovered, and although the Lakers did not sign Artest like they did in their previous life, they kept Ariza.

The Celtics, who played the series against the Cavaliers, lacked Rasheed Wallace and Michael Finley compared to their previous lives.

In a nutshell, the Cavaliers are 40-60, or even 30-70 against any of the Rockets or the Lakers.

When he arrived in Houston, Tang Tian went back to his uncle and aunt's house, gave him some gifts, and went to the Toyota Center that night.

He returned to Houston to watch the Rockets and Lakers tiebreaker.

Sitting in the familiar arena, he felt somewhat emotional in his heart.

The game entered the opening ceremony, and the familiar names of Yao Ming and McGrady seemed like yesterday.

Aside from emotion, Tang Tian was still a little surprised.

At the beginning of the season, the system said that after leaving the host, the abilities acquired by the players will gradually disappear.

But Yao Ming and Tracy McGrady have not been injured, their luck is really good.

The system says at most one season. If it is really serious, it will not be counted until the offseason.

The game started quickly, and the two teams played very anxiously.

Hitting the tie-break also shows that the strength gap between them is not big.

The level of Yi Jianlian and Sun Yue can be felt to be much weaker than Tang Tian's time, but it seems that the weakness is not so obvious.

The abilities given to them by the system have disappeared, but they have played so many games in the NBA, and they have accumulated more or less training and experience.

The two are not in conflict.

The Rockets trailed the Lakers by 10 points 47-57 in the first half.

Thibodeau's tactics were a bit rigid, and he was targeted by Phil Jackson.

When the second half was about to start, the on-site photographer found Tang Tian in the crowd.

There were cheers and whistles.

Tang Tian also smiled and waved to the fans.

When the camera passed, the fans around him warmly greeted and took photos with him.

It can be felt that even though the season is almost over, the fans here still remember his contribution to the city.

Back in the second half, the Rockets were still targeted by the Lakers, but Yao Ming suddenly took the initiative to increase the frequency of his personal attacks.

The inside line of the Lakers is a bit difficult to parry.

As the MVP, Yao Ming also has his own system. After he opened it, the entire Rockets also came alive.

Amid waves of cheers from fans at the scene, the Rockets approached the score bit by bit.

In the fourth quarter, the two sides finally tied, and the game became a time for Kobe and Tracy McGrady.

At the last moment, McGrady assisted Yao Ming to score 2+1 after a pick-and-roll. The Rockets successfully reversed the game, won the tiebreaker, and eliminated the Lakers for the third consecutive year to reach the finals.

Kobe scored 43 points in the air again, and was successfully promoted to the leader of the air-slashing group.

Yao Ming scored 37 points, Tracy McGrady scored 32 points, the dual-core broke out together, and they were exhausted.

During the sideline interviews, Yao Ming was panting and wiping his sweat.

After watching the game, Tang Tian also left the arena.

Before coming here, he was a little uncertain, but after watching the game, he felt that the Cavaliers had no chance at all.

The Rockets won the tiebreaker and entered the Finals for the fourth consecutive year. They are also expected to create another four consecutive championships after the Celtics.

The players on the team are excited, and so are the fans.

At the press conference after the game, Morey was full of joy.

"Salmons, acquired by the team, performed well in the playoffs, averaging 13.8 points per game. What motivated the team to acquire him?"

"John has always been an excellent player. Analyzing his data, you will find that he is one of the most efficient players in the league. To be honest, when I got him on the trade deadline, I was so excited that I didn't sleep all night." Morey said with a smile.

"For the fourth consecutive year in the playoffs, what is your biggest feeling?" Another reporter asked.

"Excited, this is the fourth consecutive year that the team has entered the finals. Although we lost some players and people during the offseason last year, the current players of the team have proved that they still have this strength, which is exciting , I am looking forward to the birth of a new history."
