Chapter 839

"LeBron, hurry up and get some rest."

James, who was sweating profusely, sat directly on the bench after coming off the court, looked up at the scoreboard in the distance, and let the sweat on his head dripping down his cheeks and onto the floor under his feet.

James never thought that the game with the Spurs and the duel between Meng Xu would be so difficult, or before the finals began, James never imagined that Meng Xu, who is 33 years old, would have such strong strength and such lasting physical strength.

Because in the second half of the second quarter, Meng Xu began to target James at both ends of the offensive and defensive ends at any cost, so after entering the third quarter, James thought that Meng Xu's physical fitness would definitely not last a whole quarter, and James had always wanted to defeat Meng Xu in the finals, not only to defeat Meng Xu's team, but also to defeat Meng Xu in all statistics, so in the third quarter of the game, James was very rare to violate the arrangement of head coach Eric Spoelstra, At both ends of the offensive and defensive ends, he started a one-on-one anser-ball with Meng Xu.

However, the pressure exerted by Meng Xu on James at both ends of the offensive and defensive ends made James feel his scalp tingle, first of all, on the offensive end, James relied on his strong body and excellent movement speed, and the domineering and incomparable crushing style of play developed by James was like being locked in front of Meng Xu, and there was nowhere to show it, forcing James to rely on a combination of body and technology to barely get rid of Meng Xu, and on the defensive end, facing Meng Xu without his strong physical fitness, and various techniques that have reached the extreme, even if James has the strength of 120 points, it is very difficult to defend Meng Xu, especially what makes James tremble is his physical consumption speed, and the physical energy consumed in a game against Meng Xu is far more than that of other opposing players.

And Eric Spoelstra on the sidelines, after sending the bench lineup onto the court, turned his head to look at James who was stunned, and then shook his head, this is the first time Eric Spoelstra has seen James so out of shape in the game, whether it is Durant who meets the Thunder, or Paul George of the Pacers, James is very calm and very sober, no matter what the situation is, James always puts victory first, but only when he meets Meng Xu, James always can't bear it, wanted to go head-to-head with Meng Xu, and Popovich on the opposite side seemed to be able to penetrate James's mind, and kept letting Meng Xu tease James on the court.

Although the Heat has a big three, it seems to be a team with three cores, but the Heat is essentially a one-person team, the former Wade, the current James, the Heat's tactics have always revolved around one person, and when the Heat's tactical core is stripped out and starts to fight alone, the Heat has no tactics at all, of course, even if James is not stripped out, as long as he can't get rid of Meng Xu's suppression, the Heat's tactics can't be effectively rotated.

"LeBron played well in the third quarter, and he played very well when he played one-on-one with Meng Xu, and for the first time in so many years, I have seen a player who can play as well as Meng Xu."

After the start of the fourth quarter of the game, Magic Johnson continued to praise James and Meng Xu in the third quarter of the game, as the broadcaster of the finals, the Spurs and the Heat who can have the last laugh has nothing to do with ABC, ABC wants focus, wonderful games and ratings, and Meng Xu and James in the third quarter of the game is undoubtedly the most exciting game in all the playoffs this season, which can be seen from the crazy atmosphere of the American Airlines Arena and the soaring ratings off the court.

"yes, LeBron played very well, but the Heat couldn't turn the game around." Michaels is also quite appreciative of James's performance today, but for the performance of the other players of the Heat, Michaels is not so satisfied, as the other two of the Big Three, Chris Bosh was blown up by Tim Duncan on both offensive and defensive ends today, and Dwyane Wade also performed poorly under the defense of Kawhi Leonard and could not provide effective help to James, as for the Heat's rotation players, except for Ray Allen, the performance of others is as bad as ever.

"Haha, El, these players of the Heat have played quite well, and they can't provide effective help to LeBron, it's not their strength problem, but their inability to adapt to the rhythm of this game, as the two best players in the league today, the intensity of the duel between Meng Xu and LeBron is beyond imagination, and it is understandable that these players around him can't participate, it's not his fault."

As a player who once ruled an era, Magic Johnson never believed in what XX tried his best, teammates CBA these exculpatory words, players who can enter the NBA and gain a firm foothold in this league, none of them are general, and the situation that the Heat is facing now is not that James's teammates can't do it, but that the level of the duel between Meng Xu and James is too high, and the intensity of the game is too high, not to mention these rotation players of the Heat, even if it is Tim Duncan, there is no way to insert into the duel between Meng Xu and James.

"Maybe you're right." Compared with Magic Johnson, Michaels, who is just a "non-professional" person, is naturally inferior to Magic Johnson in terms of some things, so when Magic Johnson says some "amazing words", all Michael can do is quietly watch him pretend to be BI, who makes a cow B.

However, Michaels was not convinced, and in the third quarter of the game, Wade and Bosh, who couldn't help James at all, played well on the court after playing with the bench lineup in the fourth quarter, and even played a 5-0 small climax for the Spurs at the beginning of the fourth quarter, helping the Heat narrow the gap to less than 5 points.

"LeBron, don't think about it, we haven't lost yet, we're going to win this game!" Just as the bench led by Wade and Bosh was battling with the Spurs on the court, Eric Spoelstra quietly came to James' side and wanted to comfort James.

Although James did not play according to Eric Spoelstra's tactics in the third quarter of the game, Eric Spoelstra did not blame James, as the core of this team, James has unlimited firing rights, and he also has the right to rely on his own ideas to play the game, although James's performance in the third quarter was somewhat reckless, but James's performance was not a problem, and the Heat wanted to win the final victory, but it still had to rely on James's play.
