The Godfather of Basketball

James thought about it.

In fact, he also encountered setbacks, but that was a long time ago.

Since entering high school, he has become the pride of heaven.

High school games attract a large number of NBA scouts, as well as countless crazy fans.

The No. 1 pick has already been appointed before the draft, and it is the kind that has absolutely no suspense.

The last such person was Tim Duncan.

And he actually has a higher starting point than Duncan. Before entering the league, Nike had already signed him a huge contract of 90 million for 7 years.

This contract was comparable to the league's maximum salary at the time, and it was unique.

In his rookie season, he averaged 20.9 points, 5.5 rebounds and 5.9 assists per game.

The Eastern Conference Finals year after year, reaching the finals in the fourth year of entering the league.

After that, he was shown by the league as another spokesperson after Kobe.

Even after Tang Tian joined, he staged a historic moment of winning the championship last year.

Everything went smoothly.

The formation of the Big Three this season has a real chance to become the first person in history.

It's a pity that Tang Tian is different from other coaches. After having a lineup, he is not the kind of hard-fucking main player, but everything is for the purpose of winning.

As a result, he failed to become the MVP.

The feeling of jumping all the way to the top of the cloud and then suddenly falling is really hard to accept.

Not to mention the Bulls have him playing now.

"It's not just Michael Jordan, the number one person in all the industries you know, which one doesn't come with all kinds of hardships and smooth sailing, at most it's a smash hit, and it won't appear at the highest point in history." Tang Tian saw James Did not speak, then added.

"I see." James nodded.

Before coming here, he had his own considerations, but after listening to Tang Tian's words, he really figured it out.

With a few words, James was relieved by Tang Tian, ​​but the outside world didn't know.

On the second day after the game between the Cavaliers and the Bulls, the front pages of the major media published the news of Paul's lore, and without exception, they all mentioned that James was benched for nearly half of the game.

"The power struggle of the three giants", "the internal turmoil of the Cavaliers", "the dynasty is stillborn"...

Adjectives like these, it feels like the Cavaliers have fallen behind 0 to 3 and are on the verge of elimination.

The media is the guide of public opinion of the fans. After most of the fans' home teams have missed the championship, they also let themselves go in various forums.

From the comments on the news, to the questioning of James, to Paul's lore to save Tang Tian, ​​his imagination grew bigger and bigger.

By the end of the day a group of people were celebrating and sitting and watching the Cavaliers get knocked out.

After a three-day break, Game 2 of the Eastern Conference Finals continued in Cleveland.

This game is also highly anticipated.

After a few days of rest, the Bulls regained their confidence after a lore in the last game.

"We won't lose in that way again." Rose vowed in an interview before the game.

Not only Rose, but other members of the Bulls are also full of confidence.

If they win the second game, it will be equivalent to grabbing the home court advantage and winning the initiative in the series.

That's not impossible, after all, they only lost 1 point in the first game.

If Paul had been unlucky before, they would be leading 1-0 now.

But no matter how the outside world talks about it or what the opponent's mentality is, the support of Cleveland fans for the Cavaliers remains unchanged.

Small cities are like this, and their support for the home team is like instinct.

Cavaliers owner Gilbert also came to the scene, and his appearance further ignited the atmosphere at home.

In the opening ceremony before the game, the atmosphere on the scene was even more enthusiastic than the first game.

Amidst the cheers of the fans, the Cavaliers' starter was introduced.

As the press conference said, Tang Tian did not change the starting lineup.

It is still a big and four small lineup of the Big Three with Green and Artest.

The Bulls learned from the experience of the previous game and replaced Boozer with Korver, allowing Bogans to continue to match James.

The two sides jumped the ball, Yao Ming turned the ball back to the half court, and the Cavaliers went first.

Paul advanced to the frontcourt, greeted Yao Ming's pick-and-roll, took a step in and shot a jumper with an emergency stop.

Noah did not expand, and watched Paul make a move.

"Shua!"

The ball is also firmly in the frame.

The Cavaliers scored as soon as they came up.

Rose came back to find Deng's pick-and-roll to kill the emergency stop and throw under the basket, wanting to play a response ball.

However, Yao Ming's defensive area is much larger than that of Noah, and the prediction is extended in advance.

Rose hit the iron with a throw, and Yao Ming turned around and received a defensive rebound.

The Cavaliers went straight to the fast break, Paul received the ball from outside the three-point line, and Bogans, who was playing defensively with his crotch on the march, rushed to the frontcourt amidst the roar of the audience. One-handed dunk.

The cheers immediately exploded.

Rose and Deng's pick-and-roll in the frontcourt, jumped up and scored Korver.

Green quickly recovered and did not give Korver a chance to make a phone call.

It can be said that Rose has improved a lot this season, but his passing habits are still the same as before. He likes to pass after jumping, and many opportunities have become not opportunities.

Korver is a pure shooter, and he can only return the ball to Rose after being defended.

Rose ran out to catch the ball, and Korver's intention to pass the ball was too obvious, before Rose received the ball.

"Snapped!"

Paul rushed from the side and directly broke the ball in his hand.

After stealing the ball, Paul then took the ball and rushed forward.

Rose fought hard to defend from the sidelines.

The familiar scene seemed to return to the scene of the lore in the last game.

Both accelerate to the top.

After reaching the three-point line in the frontcourt, Paul suddenly made an emergency stop.

Rose didn't expect Paul to stop, he was capable, but his consciousness was half a beat behind.

After Paul made an emergency stop, he shot a three-pointer directly.

The fans at the scene were restless.

It's not a wise choice to shoot three-pointers on a fast break 1-on-1.

And Paul is not good at three-pointers.

With this choice, it can only be said that he played with confidence!

The ball crossed a high parabola in the air and flew straight towards the basket.

"Shua!"

There was a crisp sound.

Paul's chasing three-pointer also scored!

7 to 0!

Paul personally scored 7 points in a row!

After a meal, the fans burst into cheers.

It's so handsome!

Paul nodded as he walked back, while raising his hands to arouse the emotions of the scene.

The cheers in the arena broke the sky.

If you really want to talk about personal strength, Paul, who has recovered from a knee injury, is also in the top five or even the top three in the MVP.

Sao Paulo after all!

Tang Tian nodded in satisfaction at this time.

With James and Yao Ming around, Paul, as a point guard, instinctively played down his role as a giant.

But if he really wants to fight, he is also fully capable of killing the game.

You must know that three years ago, when Tang Tian was still in the Rockets, Paul played against the Hornets in the second round of the playoffs, and Paul was a one-man team.

The lore goal in the last game was to activate his desire to score.
