The Godfather of Basketball

105 to 99, the Nets pulled one back in the first game at home and tied the total score to 1 to 2.

Six Nets scored in double figures, and Deron scored a team-high 21 points. They played the team basketball to the extreme.

The highest scorer on the Cavaliers side is still Irving. He made 11 of 30 shots, 8 of 10 free throws and scored 33 points and 4 assists. James only took 13 shots in the game, and "only" scored 20 points and 11 rebounds on 8 of 13 shots. 6 assists.

This is a team victory, and it is also a model for the Nets to successfully use off-court factors.

After winning this victory, the Nets have the opportunity to stand on the same starting line as the Cavaliers.

The third game between the Thunder and the Warriors moved to Oklahoma City to continue.

Somewhat similar to the Nets, the Thunder are also a young team. After returning home, they swept away the decline of the second game and scored a super high score of 133 points. The advantage of the bloody Warriors, a strong rewrite of the total score to 2 to 1.

With the end of this game, fans are also looking forward to Durant and James meeting again in the finals, staged a head-to-head confrontation of top small forwards.

"Believe in ourselves, win this game and turn a 4-7 game into a 2-3 game."

Before the start of the fourth game of the series between the Nets and the Cavaliers, Tang Tian continued to give verbal encouragement to his players.

The Nets have a gap in hard power. Only by playing every game as if it is the last, turning BO7 into BO3, and then into BO1, the hope of advancing will be greater.

The good news is that the Cavaliers have no intention of adjusting their strategy, which is the best news.

On May 23, local time in the United States, the fourth game of the series between the Nets and the Cavaliers continued in Brooklyn, New York.

Barclays Center was crowded with people, and the enthusiasm of the fans was far better than that of the first game.

The final victory of the Nets in the last game gave them enough confidence, and they have enough reasons to believe that the home team will make another victory.

And as long as the two sides return to the same starting line, the possibility of the Nets entering the finals will increase dramatically.

The game started quickly amid the cheers of the fans, and the Cavaliers attacked Irving as soon as they came up.

I don’t know if Blatt doesn’t believe in evil, or James insists on doing this, or the Cavaliers are confident in their own strength and can choose to do this arbitrarily. The Cavaliers are the same as the information released by the media before the game. They have not adjusted themselves. strategy.

The two sides remained stalemate in the first quarter. When it came to the transition from the bench, the Nets stood out tonight with Oden and Booker. They helped the home team gain an 8-point lead, but Irving felt hot in the second quarter. He scored 10 points and helped the Cavaliers stalemate the situation.

At the end of the half, the two sides tied for 55.

The situation is not bad for the Nets, they still have the opportunity to establish an advantage in the third and fourth quarters.

However, in the second half, the situation changed suddenly. Irving continued the fiery touch of the first half into the half quarter. Deron and Gordon, who shot from inside and outside, had no choice but to score 16 points in a single quarter. digit lead.

The Nets struggled to catch up in the following games, closing the point difference to single digits several times, but failed to catch up in the end.

112 to 102, the Cavaliers beat the Nets again in the fourth game of the series, rewriting the big score of the series to 3 to 1, only one step away from the finals!

Owen felt hot tonight. He made 16 of 24 shots and scored 39 points and 6 assists. He won the game by himself.

James still didn't take many shots, scoring 21 points, 9 rebounds and 9 assists on 8 of 15 shots. However, after the game, he looked very excited facing the media and kept praising Irving's performance.

His mood is completely understandable. The outside world tried to make the Cavaliers civil turmoil, but he chose to support Irving, and Irving did not live up to his trust.

"We have unprecedented confidence." At the end of the interview, James directly concluded.

He's excited to have a helper like Irving by his side.

The day after the game between the Cavaliers and the Nets, the fourth game between the Thunder and the Warriors also ended at Chesapeake Energy Stadium.

The Thunder copied the rhythm of the Warriors' Game 2, blasting the Warriors both offensively and defensively, and finally won 118-94, rewriting the big score to 3-1.

Two 3 to 1, although the process of the two teams is different, but the game finally showed a one-sided situation.

The Cavaliers and the Thunder, after three years, will most likely meet again in the Finals.

The 2.0 version of James and Durant PK is close at hand, and fans are looking forward to it more and more.

Fans of the Cavaliers and Thunder cheered unceasingly, while fans of the Nets and Warriors were not so unhappy.

The defending champions won 73 wins this season, a little short of the regular season record, and now they are likely to stop in the Western Conference Finals, a little short of the championship.

The series will return to Oakland, but the Warriors' training is closed, the fans are not in high spirits, and the outlook is very bleak.

The Nets are also experiencing the same situation.

They had a chance to rewrite the score to a 2-2 tie, but Irving's outburst made all this come to naught.

There are not many 1-3 reversal games in history, and there has never been a division final.

In other words, the team that is 1 to 3 behind must win 3 games in a row to advance, and the team that can win 3 games in a row, how can it fall behind 1 to 3?

Tang Tian sat in the coach's office for half a day.

He has used both what can be used and what cannot be used. There is still a gap in strength between the Nets and the Cavaliers.

The James Nets can't solve it, and Irving is in such a good state now.

It's not even something the system can handle.

Tang Tian encountered the most difficult situation since coaching the NBA.

His index finger kept tapping on the desk. After hesitating for a long time, he decided to take a gamble.

Before the day's training started, Tang Tian presented his ideas at the regular meeting of the coaching staff.

"Defense is the key for us to win the game. We have no way out now and can only fight defense with the Cavaliers."

Tang Tian's thinking was recognized by the coaching staff.

Now the Nets have two choices, either remove Jokic and the Cavaliers to play a small lineup, fight for speed and offense; or use defensive players to fight for position and defense.

But in fact, it is meaningless for the Nets and the Cavaliers to compete offensively. First, they do not have the firepower of the Warriors. Second, defense is also the key to the Nets' ability to play against the Cavaliers.

"I will make Lang Dai the team's starting small forward, let him defend LeBron, and I will let Jimmy play against Irving." Tang Tian continued.

Jefferson Jr. is the current defensive ability of the Nets second only to Butler, but it is risky to defend James as a rookie, but this is a gamble. After being cornered, he studs.
